Chapter Four: And we named him Keigo
After driving slowly then usually to new Horizon hospital kagome finally made it. She rushed the newborn to the fifth floor were babies are born at. After getting lost for 3 minutes she finally found the nursing station. "Nurse, Nurse I need your help," Kagome yelled frantically. "Calmed down child, take a deep breath and tell me what's wrong," the nurse said. Kagome took a deep breath and said "I found this baby in the back of my car, it hasn't been fed since it was born………." The nurse understanding the situation took the hanyou form Kagome and took it to a room. There she paged Dr. Miracle. The nurse told Kagome and Sota to sit in the waiting room while they check the baby.
After two hours Dr. Miracle finally came out. "Miss Kagome, Miss Kagome," Dr. Miracle shouted into the waiting room. Kagome realizing that someone was calling her name rushed to the doctor. "Yes, yes, I'm Miss Kagome" Dr. Miracle looked the young woman up and down and said "Please come with me we are done checking out the young hanyou you brought in."
Kagome and Sota followed Dr. Miracle to the room. There a nurse was sitting in a rocking chair feeding the young hanyou milk. "Miss Kagome despite not eating for a full day the baby seems to be just fine, Dr. Miracle said. He is healthy as a horse. If he had been a human baby h would have died but since he is a hanyou he survived. Now after you sign these forms we can release him back into your custody"
"Wait, wait, my custody aren't you guys going to keep him," shouted kagome
"I'm sorry but from my understanding the mother left the child in you care therefore making you the baby legal guardian. In the state of Virginia when a child is abandoned with as family it is automatically part of that family." (F.Y.I. This is a bogus law I just made it up cause I didn't feel like thinking up another idea) Kagome sigh. She couldn't believe this was happening to her. Kagome believing that the doctor was lying called her trusted friend who happened to be a social worker Mrs. Hope.
After waiting 45 minutes Mrs. Hope finally arrived. Kagome explained the situation to her. "I'm sorry Kagome but I'm afraid what Doctor Miracle says is true. Since the mother left the child in your care you are now officially its mother. The only way to get rid of the child is to give up your rights and then the child will be placed in a foster home."
Kagome opened her mouth to speak but before she could say anything Mrs. Hope interrupted her, "Kagome before you make you decision, let me tell you something if you give up your rights to this child he will forever live a life of misery. He will already face a tough time since he is a half breed but in the system he won't make it. He will never get adopted and he will get picked on a lot. I know you Kagome. I help you battle the courts so that you can keep Sota please take this young hanyou child in to."
Kagome thought back to the letter. "Please take good care of him". Kagome looked down at the young hanyou blue eyes. Those piercing blue eyes calling out to her. Begging to be loved. Right then and there Kagome realized that she couldn't leave this child in the system,
"I'm filthy rich; I have enough money to raise two children. I can't let that beautifully baby never know the joys of love," Kagome thought.
"Fine I'll keep him," Kagome told them. Mrs. Hope smiled while Sota jumped around yelling "I got a new brother, I got a new brother."
realizing his work was done left out of the room while Kagome took a quick crash course in how to raise a hanyou. After getting all the supplies she need Kagome, Sota and the baby were about to leave when the Mrs. Hope and the nurse called her back.
"Kagome I'll be over in a couple of weeks for you to sign the papers officially making the baby yours," said Ms. Hope
"Thank You," Kagome said.
"Miss Kagome what will you name that hanyou," asked the nurse. "We need it so that we can put it on the birth certificate. "
"Hmmmmmmmmmmm" thought kagome "what to name you."
"How about Sage," Kagome looked down to see the hanyou face scrunched up at the mention of being named Sage.
"Ok How about Markl," the baby begun teared up at the name Markl.
"Ok ok ok no Markl, hmmmmmmmmmmmmm How about Keigo."
She looked down and the baby was smiling. Kagome looked at the nurse and said, "his name is Keigo Higurashi."
With that Kagome, Sota and the new edition to their family went home.
