Dangerous Desire
Chapter Three: Flowers For Kagome

~ ~ ~ ~ ~
It was dark before they came upon the village that Kaede lived in. Inuyasha jumped off
of Kilala with Kagome in his arms and ran into Kaede's hut.
"Hag, where are you?" he screamed inside the confined hut. Shippo came running into
the hut followed by Miroku and Sango. Kilala was in Sango's arms.
"What is this noise?" Kaede said as she stepped into the room. Then she noticed Kagome
lying in Inuyasha's arms, "What happened to her?" She asked in shock.
"We'll explain it all after we do something about the bleeding," Inuyasha said, letting a
small trace of the fear he was feeling show in his voice.
"Lay her down over here," Kaede said as she moved towards a futon laying on the
ground. Inuyasha did as he was told, "Sango, stay in here with me, boys I'll need ye out."
"Why?" Inuyasha asked, "I can help."
"We have to remove these bloody clothes and clean the wounds. Plus we need to figure
out a way to stop the bleeding." Inuyasha knew she was right, he couldn't stay if they were
going to help Kagome. He reluctantly left. He wanted to help but didn't know how. Miroku and
Inuyasha sat outside the door listening and waiting until they were needed. Shippo was a few
feet away picking flowers.
"Why are you picking flowers?" Inuyasha asked gruffly.
"Kagome told me that you give flowers to people when they're sick," Shippo told him
with a smile, "It'll make her feel better when she wakes up."
'When she wakes up...' Inuyasha thought to himself 'What if she never wakes up?'
Miroku handed him a rag and Inuyasha began to clean up his wounded shoulder. He wasn't
particularly concerned about it, it would heal by morning.
Kaede stepped out quickly, "If ye wish to help, ye must come back inside and I will tell
ye what ye must do," she told them then walked back inside, all of the boys following.
Kagome was still lying on the futon but in different clothes. Instead of her school
uniform she was lying in some shorts and what Kagome had called a sports bra from her time.
Two deep gashes were exposed on her side and shoulder. Sango was dabbing a wet cloth at the
wounds.
"What can we do?" Miroku asked as he stared at the injured Kagome.
"She had been poisoned, we believe it was from that demons claws. The poison runs
through her veins and prevents her body from healing these wounds," Kaede explained to them,
"If ye truly desire to help her, ye must find the herb to counter this poison. It appears as a small
flower with green and purple striped pedals. I have seen some not far from here, if ye head out
now she may have a chance, without it.... she may die..."
"What do you mean 'she may die'?" Inuyasha screamed. He turned around and looked at
Kagome. Sweat was drenching her face and the recently cleaned wounds were bloody again.
Inuyasha nodded. He refused to lose her.
"Come on Miroku, we have to help Kagome," Inuyasha said with a note of worry in his
usually emotionless voice.
"Take Kilala with you, it'll be faster for Miroku," Sango suggested as tears filled her
eyes, "we have to help her." Inuyasha and Miroku nodded and ran out the door.

After searching the surrounding area for hours on end, the pair came upon the small
green and purple flower. They were indeed small, for each petal was only the size of a human
finger nail. They were growing in large clusters here and there in the wooded area.
"Come on, let's grab some and get back to Kaede's hut," Miroku insisted, "Kagome
needs all the help we can give her." Inuyasha nodded and began gruffly grabbing the flowers
from their clusters and shoving them into his haori. After the two were satisfied that they had
enough for an antidote to counter the demonic poison they headed back to the village as quickly
as possible.
