'Thinking'
"Talking"
Sango was sitting in her living room worried. Inuyasha should have been there ten minutes ago, and she had not received a call from him. She was also worried because she had a gut feeling that something was wrong.
Suddenly the phone rang. Sango jumped out of her chair and ran to the phone. Halfway there though, she tripped and fell. She laid there, with her face in the carpet dazed for a moment.
"Ouch.." she groaned as she pushed herself back up. Once up she quickly made her way to the phone and picked it up.
"Inuyasha?'' Sango asked hopefully.
"Sango." It was Miroku and he did not sound to happy to be calling.
"Y…yeah?"
Miroku was quiet for a moment as he tried to figure out what to say. "There's been an accident."
Once she heard that she almost dropped the phone, but she was able to keep herself from doing so.
"What?" she managed to stammer out while tears were threatening to fall.
Five minutes later Sango was pulling up to the crash site. There were multiple fire trucks and police cars around the area. A small crowd had also gathered to see what was happening.
Sango parked her Jeep and jumped out . She weaved her way though the crowd and tried to get closer to the crash. But was stopped by one of the cops on crowd control.
"Let me though," Sango pleaded.
"Ma'am, no one is allowed to get closer than this," the police officer said.
"Please, that's my best friend out there."
"Sorry, ma'am, I can't let you though."
Before Sango could continue to try to get through, some called out to her. She turned quickly hoping it was Inuyasha, but instead it was Miroku. He was followed by Kagome and Koga.
"Miroku, what happen?" Sango asked once that got away from the crowd.
"Well, we don't know everything yet," Miroku started, "But what we have been told is that Inuyasha was hit by a drunk driver and…ah." He stopped not wanting to say the rest of it.
"And what?" Sango said not really wanting to hear the answer.
Kagome spoke up next, "It caused Inuyasha's car to get knocked into the path of an oncoming train." Once she finished she broke down crying into Koga's chest.
Sango froze at those words. "Where is he?!" she said grabbing hold of Miroku's shirt and practically lifted him off the ground.
"They don't know."
"What you mean?"
"The paramedic that talked to us said that his car pretty much disintegrated when the train hit him," Miroku said sadly, "They think Inuyasha's body did the same."
At hearing that Sango let the tears she a had been holding back fall. "No, he…he can't be," she sobbed out as Miroku gently embraced her. The four friends did not say a word and the only sounds coming from the group was the sound of Sango and Kagome crying.
After a few minutes Sango pulled back from Miroku. Sango looked like she could collapse at any moment. Looking at her Miroku thought it would be best to get her away from the crash site, but he knew she was to stubborn to leave until she knew more.
"Guys I'm going to get Sango out of here," Miroku said to Kagome and Koga, "I don't think it would be good for her to stay around."
"No!" Sango yelled, "I need to be here for Inuy…" She could not finish her sentence before breaking down again.
"Sango, it's not good for you to stay." Koga said, "It would be best to let Miroku take you home."
Sango knowing that she was not going to win this argument, decided to give in and leave. "Fine I'll leave, but I'll drive myself home. I'll be fine."
"Sango, you're too distraught to think straight, let alone drive safely. And I ain't going to allow another crash happen tonight if I can help it," Miroku said.
"Yeah, let Miroku take you home," Kagome said, "We'll get your Jeep for you."
Sango finally agreed to it and followed Miroku to his car. The drive back to her house was one of silence. When they got to her house, they walked up to the door and Sango opened it to go in.
"Sango," Miroku said stopping her in her tracks, "Just remember we are all here for you."
She gave him a weak smile and a light hug and told him thanks.
"If you need anything call one of us. We'll be there no matter what." What that they separated and Sango went into her house and Miroku got into his car and drove back to his house.
On Saturday Kagome, Miroku, and Rin were sitting around the living room waiting for Koga and Shippo to get done with practice. They were all quiet and depressed about Inuyasha's crash.
"Guys we need to do something," Miroku said breaking the silence, "We just can't sit around here and do nothing."
"Yeah, I know what you mean," Kagome replied, "but every time I think of something to do, it just doesn't feel right to go and do it."
"We could go and try to get Sango out of her room again," Rin said.
Since the accident, Sango had locked herself in her room. She blamed herself for what happen, saying that if she did not call him to come over everything would be fine. The others tried to convince her that it was not her fault but she would not listen.
"That won't be necessary," Kagome said.
"Why? She leaving her room by feel will now," Rin asked.
"No, apparently last night during the game she left her room, drove over to Inuyasha's house, and has now shut herself in Inuyasha's room."
"That isn't healthy," Miroku stated receiving nods from the other two.
A few minutes later Koga and Shippo joined them. Both looking extremely exhausted plopped down on the couch.
"Dang, looks like you guys just sprinted 15 miles." Kagome said.
"More like 50," Shippo said.
"That suck," Miroku said, "Even more so after losing last night's game."
"That's part of the reason why, but the main reason is Coach is trying to get our heads back into football," Koga said.
"Yeah, you guys looked completely out of it last night."
"I hope we come together soon though. I don't want this season to tank just because we can't overcome what happen to Inuyasha."
Sango had her face buried into a pillow when Kagome and Rin walked into the room and the guys just stayed at the doorway. Kagome sat down at the edge of the bed.
Before Kagome could speak a muffled 'Go away' came from Sango.
"Sango, we're not going to. You need someone right now."
Sango pulled her head out and looked at them with blood shot eyes. "Please, just leave me alone," she pleaded before putting her face back into the pillow.
"Please talk to us. We want to help you," Rin said
"Yeah, you couldn't stop it from happening. So, please don't blame yourself."
"That's where your wrong," Sango said.
"What? How could you have stop this?" Kagome and Rin asked.
"I called him and asked him to come over. If I didn't do that then he would have went to his house and everything would be fine."
"Sango, you guys hang out all the time. It was just terrible chance that this happened."
"No! We normally don't hang out on Wednesdays, because I usually am at the hospital with Kohaku," Sango said starting to break down again.
"Ok, so this was just going to be one of those times you didn't go to the hospital and decided to be with Inuyasha," Rin said.
"Not just one of those times," Sango said tears coming out freely now, "This time I was… I was finally going to tell him that I lo… love him." As soon as she finished she completely broke down and cried into the pillow.
Everyone else was silent when they heard what she had said. They could not believe that this accident had happen the same to Sango the same day she was going to tear apart her stubborn pride and tell Inuyasha her feelings. Once learning that no one knew how to help her. All they could do now was be there for her when she finally willed herself to start living again.
