Chapter 6: Finding the Problem
"Hello." Esme recovered quickly. "May I come in?" Kagome asked politely. "Oh, well you see Bella is very sick and..."
Kagome cut her off while stepping around her. "No need to worry, Dad told me. I have a great immune system, it comes from being well traveled." Kagome smilled innocently as she started walking to where she knew Bella was.
Esme walking beside her introduced herself. "It's a pleasure to meet you.."
"Kagome Taisho" she supplied the female vampire. "Ah, Kagome Taisho. I am Esme Cullen, Edward's mother. Bella's mother-in-law." Esme finished as they entered the living room.
Edward could hear all the thoughts of his siblings as they took in her appearance. She had midnight black hair that fell just below her waist in beautiful waves. Thanks to their vampire eyes they could see natural blue highlights probably only visible in the sun to the human eye. She had big beautiful sapphire blue eyes that seemed to shine. Said eyes were rimmed with long black lashes. She had a staight, "cute nose," thought Jasper. Slightly plump rose colored lips on a heart shaped blemish free face. He could hear Alice excited about the fitted designer blue blouse, navy designer skirt that ended just above the knees and flowed nicely as she walked in navy blue peep toe heals. She was probably only about 5'3'', or 5'4'' with out the heals. Emmett's thoughts focused on her very full breast, and cream colored skin. He'd never cheat on Rose but had one of the dirtiest minds. "I'd love to see her in a string bikini, I bet that ass is just as nice." Edward really didn't want to hear his brother's perverted thoughts about his possible sister-in-law. Luckily Bella's voice seemed to hult Emmett's thoughts about what color her nipples might be.
"Kagome w..what are y...you doing here?" Bella managed to stutter out. Upon seeing Bella Kagome knew she was dying. Though that didn't stop Bella from looking like an anime character with how big her eyes got. "Well, Dad called me all worried about you. He asked me to come take a look at you and see what I could do."
"Why would he ask you that?" Bella questioned. "Because he knows about my training in medicine." she said simply. Causing the vampires to wonder what sort of training a girl who looked to be around twenty could actually know.
"He also wanted to know why I didn't show up for my little sister's wedding." Kagome raised an eyebrow and gave a look Sesshoumaru was very well known for. "I told him I never got an invitation." said a slightly peeved Kagome.
The guilt rolled off her in waves. Kagome could feel it and smell it. Her nose wasn't anywhere near as good as Sesshoumaru's but the sense was hightened during the mating process.
Kagome knew exactly why she wasn't invited. Bella's low self-esteem made it almost impossible for her to be around Kagome without feeling jealous and inferior to her older sister. It all came down to that horrible excuse for a mother Rene.
"I'm sorry, I didn't want to make you fly all the way from Tokyo." Bella lied. Kagome sighed, Bella was a horrible liar. Muttering about that horrid woman Rene under her breath while Bella continued about not wanting to be an inconvenience.
Edward, his siblings, and Esme all heard Kagome clear as day when she was blaming Rene's horrible parenting on Bella's low self-esteem. It was also clear as day the real reason Bella never mentioned her sister. Jasper was easily reading Bella's insecurities, which Edward of course was also reading. They also picking up on Kagome's pity, love, and understanding for Bella, along with her anger towards Rene. They all shockingly caught the, " I should've had Shippo kill her too, then Bella could've grown up with Dad instead. "
This of course really caused worry about this Kagome girl. Was she some type gang member in Tokyo. Like the Yakuza, or something?
Edward decided to interrupt Bella. " Hi, my name is Edward Cullen. I'm Bella's husband." He said rising. "Let me introduce you to my family. You already met my mother, the blonde next to Bella is my adopted sister Rosalie Hale. Jasper here," he said as he held his hand out towards Jasper, "is her twin." Smilling he continued, "The little brunette next to him is my sister Alice Cullen, and the big guy is Emmett Cullen. "
Kagome gave a small nod of recognition, "It is a pleasure to meet you, although I wish it was under better circumstances. Now Bella, let me take a look at you."
"I don't think that's such a good idea, I'm contagious..." "Stop lying, your horrible at it." She lightly reprimanded. "You are not contagious, and even if you were it wouldn't hurt me."
Stepping right up in front of her she leaned over and put her hands on Bella's shoulders. Using her powers she moved through her system quickly looking for what could be wrong. The whole time telling Bella just to trust her to help, none the wiser to Kagome's probing. Since she wasn't healing yet none noticed since her powers wouldn't show with something so simple yet. There, she felt it. A tiny life slowly starving, and draining more of her mother's life blood to hold on.
Kagome smilled as she said, " Well, there's the problem."
"What? " Bella got out completely confused. "Don't worry it's an easy fix."
