A/N = On with chapter two! I promise the story will get better ^_~ Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha, he owns me! Lol. I was just wondering is it necessary to put a disclaimer at the beginning of every Chapter? I understand

Shippo waited until she was out of site before hopping out of bed. He was a very hyperactive kid and got bored very quickly. He had been bed-ridden for two weeks after his operation and had only recently begun to feel well enough to walk, leaving him lots of unexplored territory. While still sucking on his lollypop he skipped down the corridor.

He had been trying to get a better picture on the television when a humming disturbed him. He looked out into the hallway and saw a child walking past, curious Inuyasha wheeled closer to the door. Slowly he began to devise a plan. "Hey kid! Come here a second!"

"Hai?" Shippo asked cautiously. "Sorry if I woke you up."

"What? At this time of day?" He was about to shout at the kid explaining that he would never be so lazy as to sleep at such an early hour but quickly decided against it. "Never mind about that." He lent closer to the boy and whispered. "You want some fun?"

"It depends on the fun." Again Shippo was cautious.

"I want something to eat and everyone knows that the good food is not in this hospital. I promise to bring you back a nice juicy burger from McDonalds down the road if you distract the security guard for me and then cover for me once I'm gone." He told him secretly.

"Hai! Sounds fun, but only if you get me some chocolate too!" Piped Shippo and Inuyasha nodded.

"My doctor is Higurashi Kagome and she is due to see me soon. Keep her busy until I get back."

"What if we get caught?" He fretted but Inuyasha just laughed.

"I'll be the one in trouble, not you. Now are you up to it or not you coward?" Inuyasha's wasn't a patient man and didn't have much time for dumb kids.

"I'm up for it." The kid nodded his head in determination.

Despite being restricted to a wheelchair Inuyasha felt free as he felt the wind from speeding cars brush against his face and tussle his long silver hair. Not only had he bought the promised burger and chocolate for the boy but also a couple of burgers, chips (fries), a chocolate milkshake and an apple pie for himself. He wheeled himself to a nearby park where he sat and ate his food. They had put him on a strict diet in the hospital and he didn't much like it, at least when he dieted for the team he was getting some satisfaction that he was doing it to become a faster runner, a winner. But now he was forced to fast simply because the doctors thought everyone in the hospital should eat rabbit food. After he finished his main food he started on his apple pie and took a sip of his drink. It was a warm day and the cold ice cream from the milkshake was welcomed in his mouth. Suddenly someone tapped him on his shoulder and he almost choked to see who it was. "Miroku? What the fuck are you doing here?" He snarled.

"Last time I checked you was still at the hospital Inuyasha." He priest frowned slightly. "Kagome-sama won't be pleased."

"Feh! What do I care? They can't keep me there against my will; I'm not a criminal." He stated calmly and took another bite out of his desert.

"Your mother won't be pleased either." Miroku tutted.

"M-mother? You wouldn't dare!" He stared the man threateningly in the eye.

"She has put her faith in my after all, she should be informed that her son has gone wheels-about down to McDonalds. Unless you return now I might be forced to tell her." Inuyasha growled and chucked his milkshake and pie on the floor.

"Fine!" He began to move his arms faster to gain more speed. "And the fact that we've been friends since childhood does not prevent you from betraying me!" he grumbled.

"I've gotten myself into enough trouble for you Inuyasha so don't groan at me. Who was it that gave you those magazines?"

"How could I forget? I didn't want the damn perverted things and a fine time to give them to me too. When I'm asleep for crying out loud! You just left them on the side, and I nearly died trying to hide them so quickly from mother when I finally saw them! Bastard." He was still bitter from the incident and Miroku sweat dropped.

"Gomen! I just thought that they might cheer you up. After all you were rather glum last week."

"Feh!" Was his only reply.

"Oh it can't be that bad, you've got nurses at your beckon call not to mention one of the hottest doctors treating you." He tried to cheer his friend up.

"Well excuse me if I find this all a little less exciting." Inuyasha replied dryly.

"Have they found anything more out about what's wrong with you?" Miroku asked suddenly, and Inuyasha was a first a little taken back and didn't know what to answer. He had thought that Miroku didn't really want to know much about the illness of his friend in case it was bad news and he wouldn't know how to handle it.

"No, but they told me it looks like it will get worse before I get better... If I get better. Mother looks as though she is hiding something from me, I think it has to do with my illness." He told his friend truthfully and then clenched his fist. "Why did I have to get sick now? You know how close I was to getting that contract? I was winning that race! I could had been in America by now!" He almost screamed in frustration.

"Has Naraku come to talk to you since? Maybe once you recover you can get another chance-"

"He hasn't been to see me and I can't get in contact with him. Neither can mother. He's probably gone with Kouga to the races." He muttered angrily.

"Try not to get upset about it Inuyasha, you'll be out of there in no time I just know it!" He tried to stay hopeful but even he would have to admit it wasn't looking good.

"Yeah and then you will come and find me to take me back. Not only that but bitch-face Kagome will probably yell at me for leaving." He sulked, and then stopped, resulting in Miroku almost bumping into him.

"Why did you stop?"

"M-my arms need a rest is all!" He snapped angrily. Miroku shot a worried glance in his direction and sighed. He knew by the way Inuyasha clutched his legs and gritted his teeth that he was in pain. It wasn't nothing new since he had been having these sudden of bouts pain in his legs from even before collapsed at the race that day but it still worried Miroku.

"Then I'll push you, we'll see it we can get you something for the pain when we get back to the hospital." Miroku wasn't really asking if Inuyasha wanted him to push him, the young priest was demanding it and Inuyasha was not in the mood to argue and so just concentrated of riding himself of the pain.
