Chapter 26: Drastic change of events... Part One
After an exhausting evening that went deep into night everyone went to bed. Even Sesshomaru was glad to lay on the bed. The dam planning of that dam ball was more exhausting that any battle he had ever encounter. And the debating group plaid a very important part in that. His ears were pounding because of the group's loud voices, his hands were shaking really bad, he had to wright the same looong list for over 10 times and had to double-check every one of them. Kikyo didn't do much so after two hours she went in the library to read some spell books. By the time the others finished she was fast to sleep in her old room that was near Kagome's. Sango and the firecat youkai Kiara went earlier to bed, being tired from the previous day. Miroku and Kagome staid longer than her, to finish the job. Shippo after he came back told Kaede of his little discussion with Inuyasha and then went to bed. Kaede soon did the same.
Kagome was the last to reach her room. She opened the door, awaiting for a smile to greet her but it never came. In such a short while she had grown so found of Inuyasha like she did of Shippo but then again it was different this time. She got changed in her silver night gown. On the way from her closet to her bed she went pass the other one that was brought in for Inuyasha. A memory from that day went through her head. Eri came to her before they had dinner. What she said sounded so nice.
" Kagome-sama, Inuyasha-sama won't join you for dinner?" she sighted.
' How nice that sounded, not your slave, not the half-breed, not that filthy hanyou but... ' she turned to Eri and said, her expression slightly disappointed. " No, Eri. He won't. He had to go for a while..."
" So he will be back in a few days, right?"
" I guess so... after lord Sesshomaru and Kikyo leave."
" Then, can I put the rest of the clothes that were made for him, in the closet as you ordered?"
" Of course, Eri. Thank you."
" You're welcomed, Kagome-sama." said Eri bowing as Kagome entered the dinning room.
Then Kagome remembered the episode when she took Inuyasha to the tailor. He was always fussing, but when Kagome thought that the color suited him he made no more complains, like a child would when his mother give him a look that said ' You stop that this instance or on candy for a month.' she smiled at this sweet memory that she'll keep in her hart. Going past his bed she unwieldy trailed with her fingers the edge of the bed lightly. She sighted and crawled in bed.
She was sooo tired, like the times when she used to help the sick people during the winter along with Kaede, which was teaching her to have patience with the ill children. She closed her eyes in attempt of falling asleep. She couldn't but she refused to give up. Finally after hours of tossing and turning her boy gave up from exhaustion and she fell asleep. An hour latter her body recovered some of its strength. She started tossing and turning again. Her body was hurting, she was covered in sweat, her pillows from all the action that was there had long gone fallen to the floor. Her locks of hair were determent to stay in her way, her sweat sticking them to her forehead. After a few more minutes of torment she woke up.
" Stoppp!" her breath coming in erratic paths, the chilly night air brutally entering her sore lungs, her body tensing more and more with each one she took, the pain she felt before quickly returning to her aching body. Her room was spinning faster and faster in front of her eyes making her dizzy. Her heart was pounding rapidly in her ears. She couldn't think, her brain was turning into mush from the pain she felt. It was to much... to much to bare anymore...
" AAAAAAAaaaaaa!" With a loud scream she collapsed on the bed. She immediately went unconscious.
Just then upon hearing her scream Kikyo, Sesshomaru and Kaede barged through the door into the room, slamming it to the wall. Sango, Miroku and Shippo, along with the rest of the house following close by and stopping at the door. Sango was holding Shippo close to her chest so that he won't go in there.
" KAEDE DO SOMETHING!" said a crying Shippo through his snobs. Reaching out to the limb body of Kagome. " DON'T LET HER DIE! PLEASSEEE!" boiling hot tears were running down his cheeks. And other ones were gandering in the eyes the other witnesses to this scene.
