Chapter 12: From Bad to Worse

"Kagome..!"

Is someone saying my name? I can't see anything.. Everything is completely white.
What's happening?
Where am I? Oh god.. SOMEONE HELP ME!

I sat up, gasping for air. It took me a moment to process the shocked faces all around me.

"Why are you all in my bedro.." I paused when I realized I wasn't in my bedroom, "Wait, where am I? What's going on?!" I was scared.

I quickly tried to get out of the bed I was lying in but Inuyasha grabbed my shoulders and pushed me back into the bed.

"Ah!" I hissed from the sharp pain I suddenly felt all over my body.

"Kagome, you need to stay in bed." Inuyasha looked me straight in the eyes.

I began getting really scared and couldn't help but start crying.

"Inu.. What's going on? What happened?" I clung on to his shirt, begging him to answer me.

Inuyasha pulled away from me and looked into my eyes.

"Kagome, you were ran over by a car. " Inuyasha told me.

"WHAT? IMPOSSIBLE!" I shouted at him trying to get out of bed again.

Inuyasha wouldn't allow me to even move an inch however, " Kagome, stop."

I immediately quit moving, "Inu.."

"Kagome, the car was going to hit Sango, and you pushed her out of the way and took the blow yourself. The car was speeding and you got stuck underneath. You were dragged down the road. The owner of the car bailed out and the police are looking for him. Sango pulled you out and rode here with you. She called us screaming that you were dead. But.. you're alive.. " Inuyasha was hugging me so tight that it hurt my wounds.

"Ouch!" Inuyasha quickly let go and apologized.

"Kagome..?" Sango approached me shakily.

She sat on the bed with me and touched my face numerous times.

"You're alive.." Sango began to cry, "It's all my fault, Kagome-chan! I almost got you killed!" Sango began to cry onto my shoulder.

I clutched onto her and coaxed her, "Sango, I chose to take that hit. You are not to blame. The driver of the car is the ONLY person at fault here!" I was crying, too.

'Why am I crying?' I asked myself.

Was it because if Sango would have been hit.. She would have undoubtedly died? She didn't have healing powers like I did.. She would have been killed instantly. I couldn't let her die like that.

"I'm glad." I whispered.

Sango looked up at me with questioning eyes.

"I'm glad you didn't get hurt." I smiled at Sango.

"Kagome!" Sango was looking at my abdomen with a shocked expression.

I looked down and saw all of my wounds had reopened. I smiled again at Sango and passed out once again. I could feel her shaking me and screaming my name.

'It's okay, Sango. I'm just sleepy.'

(Okay this is one of the rare times I will switch POV)

Sango POV

"I'm glad." Kagome whispered to me.

I suddenly felt something warm and wet on my. I looked down and saw blood all over the bed sheets.

"Kagome!" I practically yelled.

Her wounds reopened again! She followed my gaze and smiled. Then, she fell back onto the bed.

"NO! KAGOME!" I began shaking her.

Her eyes were still open and blood began pouring from her mouth.

'This can't be happening!'

"INUYASHA!" I turned to find Inuyasha yelling out the door.

"WE NEED A NURSE! A DOCTOR! SOMETHING! SHE'S DYING!" Inuyasha hollered, tears running down his face.

I felt Kagome shaking.

"Inu! She's waking u- OH GOD!" Kagome began to have a violent seizure.

"NNNNGGGHHHHH!" Kagome spilled more blood from her mouth.

Doctors and nurses piled into the room.

"Move away, miss!" One told me.

I ran to stand next to Inuyasha. He pulled me into a hug and turned me away from Kagome.

"We need.. to.. call Souta." Inuyasha hiccuped.

I nodded and we left the horrid sight that was taking place in the hospital room.

Inuyasha dialed Souta's number.

(BOLD - INUYASHA BOLD ITALIC - SOUTA)

Hey yash! What's u-

Souta I need you to get to the hospital right now.

Why what's going on?

Hurry Souta

Inuyasha quickly hung up and we went down to the entrance to wait for Souta, Kohaku, and Kina. As soon as we arrived at the entrance building of the hospital Souta busted in with Kohaku and Kina right behind him.

"YASHA! What's goin on?!" Souta ran over to us panting.

"Come to the waiting room, Souta." I told Souta, "Kohaku! Stay here with Kina."

We quickly made our way to the waiting room and told Souta to sit down.

"Guys.. Seriously what's going on!" Souta looked frightened.

Inuyasha crouched to be eye level with Souta. He told Souta everything that had happened and Souta stood up.

"YOU FUCKING LIAR!" Souta yelled and punched Inuyasha in the face.

Souta then took off towards his sisters hospital room.

"Souta wait!" I yelled after him.

Inuyasha and I ran to catch up with him. He beat us there and threw open the room we told him Kagome was in.

"KAGOME?!" Souta dropped to his knees.

Inuyasha scooped up a kicking and screaming Souta into his arms.

"I know buddy, I know.." Inuyasha held the crying boy.

"Not my sister! Please, God! Anyone but my sister!" Souta screamed into the air.

"I'm sorry Souta.." I choked out.

I began to sob uncontrollably. It was my fault. My fault that Souta wouldn't have any family left if Kagome died. My fault Kagome was dying. MY FAULT!

A few moments later a doctor covered in blood emerged from Kagome's room.

"Where is the family of Miss Higurashi?" The doctor asked.

"I'M HER FAMILY!" Souta ran over to the doctor. "Tell me she's okay!"

Inuyasha and I walked over to the doctor as well, wanting to hear what information he had about Kagome.

"Kagome's miko powers are failing her. She's straining herself trying to heal herself enough to live. Her wounds keep opening for some odd reason. We are trying everything we can.. but we need another person with spiritual powers. " The doctor told us.

"I can do it!" Souta stated quickly.

The doctor looked at him with sad eyes. "You're her little brother, aren't you?" Souta nodded.

"I wish your powers would be enough, son." The doctor looked down.

"MIROKU!" Inuyasha shouted. "Sango get Miroku here NOW! His and Souta's powers combined with Kagome's might be enough!"


Okay I'm cutting it right here! Leave a review of what you want to happen next!
