Chapter 12

"Gun shot victim, blood pressure slowly decreasing. Its a through and through gun shot wound. Two major organs hit upon first assessment. Vic's name is Inuyasha Taisho. His wife rode in the bus. Had to use 12 ml of- 'Beep, beep' he is flat-lining hurry up. We are losing him. Heart failure and collapse of a lung," Ryan, the lead paramedic relaying the information as they got to the entrance.

When Inuyasha's heart stopped Ryan got on top of Inuyasha and was performing manual CPR to start the heart back up.

Kagome saw as her husband was rushed to the back of the hospital for surgery. The flourescent lights exposed the blood covered exposed skin of Kagome. She was escorted to the restroom to wash off the dried up blood that congealed on her hands, face and thighs. Masculine hands wrapped around her waist and scooped her up. She laid her throbbing head against the man's chest. She breathed in deep to mask the smell of blood. The cologne invaded her psyche and she welcomed it. She looked to see that it wasn't her husband but Bankotsu. She closed her eyes and more hot tears stung her eyes. She felt her feet touch the cold tile floor and she collasped to the floor crying.

Sobs rocked her body trying to split her in half. Finally able to move and think, she looked at herself in the restroom mirror. She saw her once polished, come-eat-your-heart-out make-up and outfit was no more and she stripped her clothes from her body. She stared back at a woman she hardly recognized. Her hair earlier full of curls now laid flat and lifeless. The black shiny texture was dull matted in a total disarray. Her lined eyes and mascara stained her face in three long lines down her cheeks and pooled around her bottom eyelid. Smears of blood was on her chin, upper arm forearm, forehead and her throat. She noticed that her lips were dry and not rosy like before. Color from her body was gone. She looked like the walking dead.

She quickly got a bunch of paper towels and wet them with water and soap from the dispenser. She scrubbed as hard as she could wishing that the water was hotter and she had a better scrubber. She watched as the remains if tonight spiral down the porcelin sink mixed in with make-up and blood that belong to Inuyasha, her husband.

'Harder, scrub harder, got to get his blood off of me. Why won't it come off my hands.'

Red and more red swirled in the basin until it drained down the hospital's pipes. Finally satisfied that her face wouldn't scare a baby or an elderly person she tackled her hair. She wet her hands and fingers and finger combed her hair to a ponytail. Amongst the blue standard nurse scrubs that was brought in a scrunchy was there. She quickly changed and put on the matching blue socks. Looking back to at her reflection she licked her lips to bring back moisture. She told herself 'I have to be strong and not freak out. I am a Taisho damn it!'

She has to know if she still has a husband or will she be a widow at age 27. Her kids without a living father. Her kids...his mother...

'I got to tell Izzy at least,' thought while looking around for her purse to no avail.

Her black clutch was not there. She took off her black diamond jewelry and placed it inside of the bag with the rest of her belongings and walked out of the restroom determined to find a phone.

She sent up another pray 'Inuyasha, be strong, please have the will to live...I still love you.'

"Yeah, they rushed him here, Kags in the restroom cleaning herself up. She didn't take it to well but I think she is going to manage. Yeah, the police are looking at the footage from the security camera tapes. Thankfully I had them installed and working this afternoon."

Bankotsu listened on the phone to the caller.

"No, I think you should come tomorrow afternoon. He's been back there for about 40 minutes. So its just going to be a lot of waiting. Sango, Jakotsu, and Miroku are on their way. The police questioned everyone except me and Kagome".

Bankotsu listened to the response from the caller.

"Yea...I want to know to, who could have done it. Hopefully they will keep the news people away from the hospital", Bankotsu turned around and saw Kagome in a nurse's scrubs power walking towards him.

The look of determination in her eyes he decided to end the call.

"Hey Momma Izzy, Kags just came out the restroom. I'll have her call you when I get some food and a clear status on Inuyasha. I love you too, bye."

He ended his call and embraced the woman who still looked shell shocked.

"Are you-," Bankotsu started to say.

Kagome cut him off "I'm fine...was that mom...any..any news on Yash?" Kagome asked trying to keep her voice even.

Bankotsu reaching and grasping Kagome's wrist "yes, she and Pops are coming with the kids tomorrow afternoon. No, no news yet. But hey come let's go to the cafeteria and get some-."

Kagome snatched her wrist away from him "no, I don't want to leave. I want to be here so I will know what's his status."

She quickly wiped away a tear.

"They have already been back there for," he checked the clock 2:47 a.m. "47 minutes. Let's get something quick and be back here in 20 minutes tops. Worrying and starving yourself is not going to help anyone if we have to admit you in here too. All those drinks you had I bet you need something before you get one hell of a hangover."

She knew he was right. She shifted her belongings and followed Bankotsu in the direction of the cafeteria.

"When did you get so smart?"

"What took you so long to realize, hmm, Kags?"

5 Hours Later at the Hospital

Sango, Miroku, Bankotsu, Jakotsu, and Kagome were sprawled all over the ER waiting room. Sango sat in Miroku's lap. His head leaning against the wall and her head against his chest. Jakotsu was laying across three chairs. He had his suit jacket as a pillow and across his chest was a blanket from the hospital. Bankotsu had Kagome lay across three chairs with her head on his thigh. He had his head leaning forward in the crook of his neck nodding.

Kagome restless and stiff slowly woke up and took in the sights around her. She looked around the room and saw their friends staying the night to support her and pray for Inuyasha's surgery. She carefully lifted up from her thigh pillow and grabbed the cover and placed it on Bankotsu. She slowly rose on her feet despite the protest her body was giving her. She stretched like a seasoned yoga participant and heard her muscles and bones creak under the movement and brought relief.

As she approached the nurse's station a doctor with blood stained scrubs and mask came out of the double doors that separated the waiting room to the operating room.

"Mrs. Taisho, I assume."

"Yes, any news about my husband."

"Yes ma'am," he took off his head cover and mask.

'He is alive, or is he dead. He made it or was he too upset and heartbroken to continue to fight. Answer me damn it,' Kagome's mind racing with the different scenarios.

"Mrs. Tashio, he -," the doctor was abruptly cut off.

"WHERE IS MY HUSBAND! I AM MRS. TAISHO! I NEED SOME GODDAMN ANSWERS NOW!"

The female voice woke up all the slumbering people in the waiting room. Every bleary red eyed person stared at her wishing for a painful death.

'What the fuck is Kikyo doing here? Who in the hell called her? Mrs. Tashio? He's not divorced yet,' Kagome angrily thought walking towards Kikyo with balled fists.

Slap

"Listen here bitch! Listen good because I hate repeating myself. Inuyasha is my husband. I allowed you to play house. Playtime is over. In your delusional world he may be but where everyone else resides that asshole is MINE. So do everyone a favor and fuck off before I beat the living demon out of YOU!"

"Fuck you, you HUSBAND stealing whore! Inu, Inuyasha belongs with me! I've been patiently waiting for him to move on and sign the divorce papers. I-I lost my baby because of you bitch. That asshole you eloquently called him has been keeping me warm at night. Not YOU stupid bitch. Now get the fuck out of my way so I can see MY FUTURE HUSBAND!" Kikyo yelled with tears in her eyes.

Slap

"I can give two flying fish fucks of your sorry ass excuse home wrecking BITCH. YOU ARE A sorry excuse for a woman,husband stealing, always second class cunt! I said LEAVE! Nobody wants you here. I'm trying to see what's his status but I'm fooling with you. There is only one Mrs. INUYASHA TAISHO and I have been doing it for a long time and I don't need any help. Bank! Take care of her for me. You are dismissed bitch."

Kagome turned on her heels and walked towards the red-faced doctor.

"Come on Kikyo, you are not wanted here," Bankotsu grabbed under her arm and drag her to the the parking lot.

"Its not fair! I love him too! I was there when she broke him but now his body is broken I'm no longer needed! Hypocritical bitch! It's not fair, its not fair!"

"I know, life is not fair," Bankotsu whispered and opened up Kikyo's car door.

He saw her drive out the parking lot and walked back into the hospital.

In the hospital

"So, he is alive. My baby is alive, oh my thank you God! He is going to make it," Kagome sighed in relief wiping tears from her dry eyes.

"Yes, but he is paralyzed from the neck down. It looks temporary but it all depends on him. The operation there was some close calls but he is resting soundly in a coma induced sleep. He should be up in 12 hours. Talking may or may not be hard we will know when he is awake," the doctor stated and rubbed his eyes.

"When can we see him?" Miroku asked.

"He is being moved now, give the nurse half hour and you can go in. Just keep the volume down. If you need anything, my name is Dr. Khalieb Allen and his nurse will be Mrs. Lacey Drake," the doctor took his leave.

"He's alright Sango, he's alright, I'm not a widow Sango," Kagome broke down into Sango's arms.

"Shh, shh I know hun, let it out breathe Kagome."

'Inuyasha thank you for not giving up.'

Crash, slap,punch crash

Yura spit out blood from her mouth.

"What's up with the warm welcome."

Slap,crash, punch

"You were suppose to kill him you incompetent bitch!"a male voice rang out in the apartment.

"I did, I shot him, he-he is dead."

"Not according to a nurse I know. The bastard is alive."

"Fuck, he is going to point me out."

"Nah, you don't have to worry about that."

"What you mean?" Yura asked with wide eyes,breathing now becoming harder to do.

Bang,bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, click, click, click

"Shit, ran out of bullets. Hehe...see Yura darling, that's how you kill somebody dead."

Blood was leaking from her head, chest, vagina, arms, and legs. Her lifeless eyes looked at her murderer.

The man reached behind him and got his hunting knife and cut Yura's throat and cut out her tongue.

"Now you really can't tell a soul," he said wiping off blood from his knife and face.

Ring, ring, ring

"Hello?"

"Have you gotten the package," a eerily voice resounded out of the phone.

"A minor setback,but I got it under control. Just tying up some loose ends. Tashio made it."

"Fuck, doesn't matter, grab the heir and bring him to me."

"What about the daughter?"

"Bring her to, Lucy and Jin belong with me anyway, that bastard can't raise them correctly."

"Ok sir, I'll call you when I have them."

Click

"Bastard," the man said while leaving out the apartment after wiping down the surfaces he touched to leave no trace of his visit.

"Jin, Lucy,I'm coming for you," he got into his car and drove into the midnight.
