( Inuyasha falls into a coma, Kagome is facing depression, and worst of all the hanyou awakes to be the person he least wishes to be! What will he do to convince Kagome he is the man he really is!)
As soon as she found herself in wonderland life seemed to turn against her...
A woman entered the building with a broken smile, she was known by the workers at the hospital. Her lively spirit shattered before their eyes, she came in their with a boy with silver hair freely falling to his knees. That was the last laugh, her smile seemed to be eternal, her soul pure and overjoyed.
On a parchment of paper on the welcoming desk she jotted down her name once again, the list seemed to have her name on every lined page.
Heading to the elevator she merely waved at the nurses, stepping in the elevator her eyes watched the lights shine as the numbers of the floors rose higher. The doors opened to her walking down the dead silent halls, seeing people in wheelchairs, crying and weakened coughs were heard doors down.
" Ms. Higurashi! It is nice to see you again!" His nurse spoke cheerfully letting her pass in the room, the blue sheet separated them she pulled aside. His body was cold and pale on the bed, music played softly in the room, his face was so fragile.
Kagome could remember when she first met him at the Sacred Tree, his face had no emotion but his looks entranced her to come closer to the frozen figure.
" Inuyasha, I've come for you," She whispered kissing his warm cheek, an iv was in his hand, his eyes were shut for all those months. The accident seemed so vague she couldn't seemed to hold onto it, drifting away from her mind.
Depression came into her heart, she seemed to walk freely for hours found crying as she had come home, ever since then her mother had hired a psychiatrist to stay at home to make sure she stayed home. Kagome had run away early in the morning, she would go to the well to her friends.
For those hours that had passed she watched him, talking to a person that couldn't reply or hear her, in that deathly coma. She had held onto him for so long, now time faded as she grew weary of these days though she refused to let go.
The morning turned to dusk as she had finally left waving goodbye, leaving silently she went on the speedway trains to her home.
*~*~*
The streets bustled with students and parents with whining children, couples passed her with smiles and clasped hands. She had blocked the happiness from her mind, all these people had not a care in the world, being torn in two worlds they couldn't bare.
" I just hope they'll be there when I come," her voice shook, tears fell from her tear streaked face, she would wait for so long in her village until they arrived. Smiles were spread on their lips but she would be in tears, telling them the news that brought her on her knees.
She ran along the wind past the sight of her family, avoiding her brother to come to the Shrine which was unlocked and free to her will. Hopefully her spirit would lift, but to her tears kept falling from her chocolate eyes.
Kagome slid the door open, the shrine was bare except the well where dust coated the wooden rim. Her hands tensed as she placed them on the dust, her hands were coated with the gray fluff, her eyes gazed deep in the old well. To go to her time was hard enough, her family had not spoken of the accident since the day she awoke from a bruise on her head. Could it be them, the ones who had not told her what happened? 'No' her mind snapped, Kagome's hands turned to enraged fists.
" They wouldn't lie to me!" She cried, seeing her knee was at the rim, her heart ached to be with them, though if she was possibly caught. There was no second thought, drifting slowly down to the bottom the light enwrapped her.
The dusk sky was in sight, her feet were in the air falling lightly on the ground, her knees were chilled from the rainwater up to her knees. Climbing on the green vines Kagome fell wearily from the opening, the tears fell from her eyes.
" Why is this happening?" Her body seemed to weaken every day that passed, blurred images opened her memories. A scream pierced her ears and the world focused around her to be nothing but a green field of trees with Kaede's village below.
There sat a monk under a branched out tree, his eyes were closed to meditation with his body at ease. The sound of her footsteps released his meditation, looking up to see Kagome crying, her eyes were filled with frustration.
" Kagome, you cry for him but he won't come back," Miroku snapped, he hated to admit this to her but he spoke the truth. For an endless month they waited to hear nothing but tears and whispers for his return.
" He isn't giving up Miroku, what do you know?" Her voice cracked, her lips moved but no sound came out. Kagome clasped her hands over her mouth, there was something wrong with her, but what? What had happened the night of the incident?
Sango sat above on the branch, her hooded cape protecting her from the cold weather anew in the change of weather. They looked at her with blank expressions, the ground seemed to fade beneath her feet. ' Miroku help! What is going on?' her mind screamed as the darkness took her.
~~*
"KAGOME!" Inuyasha screamed, his eyes opened to the room, the walls were painted with monsters and demons, his eyes transfixed to the ceiling. His neck was stiff, paralyzed the thought of Kagome in trouble tore him apart.
He could hear screams and feeling hid body fall to the ground, but his body ached in a delirious fever, trying to hold to those images in his mind. They seeped from his hands like water, trying to cup them so the water wouldn't fall.
' Where am I? Where's Kagome?' The sound of footsteps came into hearing and the sound of the door slid open.
" He's awake! Come quickly!" A voice cried with happiness, the voice he couldn't recall but his scent had changed. He wasn't himself, the words came into mind again until he knew this wasn't home.
" Kagome?" He whispered, his hands slid to the shadow looming over him, there were whispers in the air until silence.
~~*
" Inuyasha, please come back to me!" He vanished from her mind, stepping farther from her reach. Opening her brown eyes to her the psychiatrist grinned down on her. Kagome threw her weary hand in the air to slap her, but her muscles failed and her arm fell to the mattress.
" Inuyasha is that boys name is it now?" She said coldly, there was a glass of water in her hand as she sipped the liquid. Though she refused to take the pill her tears fell on the bed, " He has awoken you know, but rest,"
He was awake, the sound made her want to smile to run to him and hold Inuyasha for that lifetime. Lifting herself from her bed she ran down the stairs to the speed train with her heart pounding. Had he forgotten?
" I must believe he can remember," The flowers in hand nearly fell from her wet palms, she wanted him the way he was. Who he had been all along, but as she grew closer the door of his room was left open, a stunned hanyou had sweat over his face.
' This isn't right ' Kagome knew in her heart, sitting beside him his eyes fixated on her, his hand shook reaching toward her. " You.... I know you," He whispered lying in silence one more.
Her life had faded before her eyes, memories fell from her mind, though that boy was kept in her heart....
