Pain
The next day Inuyasha woke up feeling fuzzy and tired. He thought about what had happened yesterday and remembered his little moment with Kagome. He picked got dressed and began walking outside. He noticed that it was fairly late in the afternoon and slapped his forehead for waking up so late.
He walked looked at the room ahead of him and wondered if Kagome would be in. Inuyasha walked over to the door slowly and knocked on it. He heard no answer so he opened the door. However to Inuyasha's dismay Kagome was nowhere to be found.
That was when he heard it. The one thing he would never ever want to hear…Kagome's scream.
"INUYASHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HELP!" Her cry rang in his ear over and over again as he ran frantically to find the source of the voice. He knew it was Kagome but where she was and what happened to her he has yet to find out.
Inuyasha ran and ran until he got near her voice. Then he found her lying on the ground of the garden with her eyes closed. Her face pale white and her lips dried in her hand she held a single red rose. He walked over to her and checked her pulse. She still had a pulse as weak as it may be. He picked her up and ran into the palace frantically looking around for a doctor.
When the doctor of the palace took the princess away all Inuyasha could do was wait outside…wait until she gets better…if she does get better. He held the red rose that she picked and looked at it thoughtfully. If only Inuyasha weren't too caught up he would've noticed the bite marks on Kagome's leg.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Kagome walked outside into the garden. You would think it was her normal everyday routine or something. She didn't think that he would be on her mind this much but he was. If only Kagome was watching where she was going she would've noticed the lost creature lurking behind the bushes.
The princess then stopped abruptly and smiled. She walked towards one of the rose bushes and picked a red rose. 'Maybe I should give Inuyasha this rose as a thank you gift for yesterday. I did have a lot of fun.' She smiled at the thought of Inuyasha.
Sure Inuyasha wasn't exactly your average prince charming, but who would want one of those anyways? They are all so boring…but the hanyou prince…he was anything but boring!
Just then Kagome felt a sharp pain on her leg she looked down to see a small snake demon biting at her flesh getting it's share of daily breakfast. She winced and called for the one person she seemed to become fond of over the weeks. Inuyasha.
"INUYASHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HELP!" Kagome cried before she fell to the ground. A simple snakebite wouldn't be that harmful would it? No this wasn't any snakebite; it was a snake demon with poisonous fangs. If not treated immediately it could cause death.
'Death' Kagome thought. 'I can't die yet…I have to many things I need to do…I still need to spend more time with Inuyasha!' Kagome's face scrunched up in pain and she fell to the ground. It was so painful she could feel her energy being sucked dry from her body by the second…and pretty soon…Kagome was out unconscious and oblivious to whatever happened next.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Inuyasha was tired. Right now the whole palace was standing outside of Kagome's bedroom waiting for their turn to visit the resting princess. It was finally Inuyasha's turn and he walked into the room.
He took a look at Kagome and almost cried. She looked like she was in such a horrible state. Her normally beautiful well-groomed hair was like a dark forest of vines sprawled across her pillow. Her face was pale with no sign of color whatsoever. Her lips were dry and chalky and her leg was puffy!
'Wait a minute her leg is puffy?' Inuyasha thought as he walked over to her. He examined the leg and was in shock to find two bite marks on it.
He continued to observe it as though it were something foreign that he's never seen before in his whole life.
He slowly stroked his right hand over her left cheek. Her skin felt soft under his touch. He leaned in and gave her a light kiss on the cheek and left the rose on the pillow next to her. He then began to walk out of the room to the garden.
Unknowing to Kagome when Inuyasha was in her room looking at her he had made her a promise. He promised her that he would find the demon that had done that terrible thing to her and kill it. Also he had promised that he would marry her once she wakes up no matter what. And Inuyasha is anticipating on keeping that promise too.
