*Dances around the computer listening to "Come" by Namie Amuro* ^____^
Today is the 28th of December. YAYNESS! I got my package from my friend in
Japan. I got volume 32 of Inu-Yasha (in Japanese no da) from her ^_^! I
also got a pretty necklace, soft snowman, sparkly ornament, and a Japanese
cell phone magazine. She's so nice! I am going shopping for her birthday
today. Well, here's chapter two!
Disclaimer: I don't own Inu-Yasha. I never have, and I never will. *Bows down to Rumiko Takahashi*
The driver of the red car that hit Kagome never stopped and got out of the car... perhaps he/she thought that they only ran over a dog? Kagome has been in the hospital for a little over a week now. She has been in a coma the whole time, and her mom has been staying by her side, in hopes of seeing her open her eyes and reassuring her that everything would be okay.
Souta rushed into the room and threw his backpack onto the ground.
"Hi, mom. Has anything happened yet?" he asked his mother in hopes of a positive answer.
Mrs. Higurashi shook her head. With her head hung low, a solitary tear trickled down her cheek. Souta's eyes filled with sadness. Souta put back on his backpack and left the hospital as he had done each day Kagome had been in the hospital. He ran all the way to the well, and jumped down the well, in hopes of being transported to the feudal era as his older sister could. He wanted to see Inu-Yasha; he wanted Inu-Yasha to come and make everything alright again. He slammed his fist against the cold earth, and let tears fall.
"Inu-Yasha, where are you?! Why won't you come, you jerk?!" Souta growled through his tears.
He, then, rested his forehead against the wet dirt and held some of the earth into a fist, continuing to weep.
A strange light appeared, and alas, Inu-Yasha stood at the bottom of the well with Souta. Inu-Yasha helped Souta stand, and asked him why he was crying. Souta told him all about the red car hitting Kagome, sending her in the hospital with a coma over a week ago. He told him about the state they had found Kagome in, and about the red car that never stopped after hitting Kagome.
The driver of the red car... Inu-Yasha made a fist, silently vowing to find the driver of the red car and make them pay, but...
Inu-Yasha gritted his teeth, blaming himself for everything that had befallen Kagome. He knew that he should've come to see Kagome that day, when he had felt that twinge in his heart, and his demon instinct had told him that something bad had happened to Kagome. But... he had been too stubborn to go back to her time... it was his fault that Kagome might die... It was Inu-Yasha's fault that all of this had happened. Or at least, that is what the hanyou thought, thinking that the source of any and all of Kagome's suffering was himself.
"Take me to her." The half demon commanded Souta.
Inu-Yasha put Souta on his back, and Souta told him where to turn to get to the hospital currently housing Kagome. When they got there, Inu-Yasha burst through the door, and saw Kagome's mom sitting solemnly, watching Kagome. Mrs. Higurashi did not rush over to Inu-Yasha to tweak his ears; she didn't even look up to notice him standing by the door.
Inu-Yasha walked over to Kagome. It hurt inside him so much to see her like that, with IV's hooked up to her and cuts all over her body amongst the bruises. Thankfully, though, all she had was a fractured arm, that would be fully healed in a few weeks. Inu-Yasha knelt beside her, and held her hand in his own, wishing that she would return to health, wishing to once again see her smile at him and be happy again.
Kagome opened her eyes and gazed into Inu-Yasha's golden eyes. She turned her face, startled, and saw her mom. Kagome's mom, Souta, and Inu-Yasha were all amazed to see Kagome awaken from her coma. None of them knew that it was Inu-Yasha who had awakened her, like Kagome had awakened him when he had Kikyou's arrow in his chest the first time that they had met. Then, it was Kagome who "brought him back to life", now it was Inu-Yasha doing the same for her.
"Kagome..." Inu-Yasha whispered with surprise, seeing her awaken.
Kagome looked at him straight in the eyes and told him, "Please... let go of my hand..."
"Kagome... are you feeling okay?" he asked her, taking his hand away from hers.
"How do you know my name?" Kagome asked the hanyou.
Inu-Yasha, Souta, and Mrs. Higurashi all looked at her funny, thinking that perhaps she was just kidding.
"Is he a friend of yours, Mom?" she asked her mom, but there was silence. "A friend of yours, Souta?"
Souta looked at Inu-Yasha and smiled weakly, confused... "Kagome, seriously, stop it. You're freaking me out. That's Inu-Yasha."
Kagome stared at him blankly and squinted her eyes and looked back at her brother and repeated the name, "Dog demon? What kind of name is that?"
Kagome looked at the person who she now supposed to be a friend of Souta's, and realized that he didn't have human ears, but dog ears atop his head. He didn't have black hair, but silver, not like he was old or anything though; he had a young face and looked to be about 17 years old. She also noticed his beautiful golden eyes; she could get lost staring into his golden eyes. She looked at his hand, and noticed that it looked more like claws, rather than simple long human nails.
"It's rude to stare, y'know." Inu-Yasha informed her with a smirk.
Kagome gasped at the sight of his fangs when he had smirked, then she retorted, "Well, it's rude to call a person that you just met by their first name and act like you know me, holding my hand. Just because you're Souta's friend..." Kagome trailed off.
Inu-Yasha gave her a confused look, and the thought entered his head that perhaps she was serious. Maybe her being hit by that car had messed with her mind, and made her memories of him lost forever. Inu-Yasha stopped smirking and looked a little sad.
'I am now... nothing to her? A perfect stranger? Everything... all of her memories of the two of us... gone... lost forever?' Inu-Yasha wondered in shock, realizing that she was merely a clean slate now, and he must create new memories for her.
"Inu-Yasha..." Kagome said after further inspection of his ears, "Are those ears real?" Kagome asked him as she lifted her arms up and began to tweak his ears.
Inu-Yasha's ears flattened against his head, and when she finished feeling his dog ears, he attempted to remind her by saying, "Yes... I'm half dog demon, half human, remember?"
Kagome smiled with a light laugh, "Oh. Okay. I see. So that's why he has dog ears, fangs, silver hair, claws, golden eyes... am I leaving anything out? Because he is half dog demon... It all makes sense now." Kagome said sarcastically. "And why are you dressed like that?" Kagome asked him, referring to his red kimono.
"I'm from the feudal era of Japan- Edo." Inu-Yasha answered flatly, not expecting her to believe this either.
"Oh, that's why. Okay then." Kagome replied, again, in a sarcastic tone of voice.
"Well, anyway, thanks for coming to see me. If it is okay with you, may I please have some time alone with my mom and brother right now?" Kagome asked Inu-Yasha politely.
Inu-Yasha looked over at Kagome's mom and brother, who simply gave him withering smiles.
"Inu-Yasha... maybe you should come back in a day or so and see if she is... feeling like her normal self then, okay? I apologize for how she treated you today... Thanks for being here today though." Mrs. Higurashi told him as she bowed slightly.
"Sorry, Inu-Yasha... Just so you know- you are still my hero. Thanks for coming to see my sis... I guess I'll see you in a day or so then? Bye, Inu- Yasha..." Souta whispered to the hanyou. And he waved bye, and held the door open for him.
"Goodbye, Inu-Yasha." Kagome said to him as he looked at her with a "keh" and left.
After he had left the room, Kagome commented to her family, "What's up with him? He sure is rude... But, his lies pretty well, though he needs to make them at least a little realistic. He could've said something like he was in a play or something, or he could've simply told the truth. Though..." Kagome thought a bit and finished her sentence, "I have to admit those dog ears are certainly cute... and they feel real ^_^!"
Back to Inu-Yasha...
He jumped down the well and lingered there for a bit, after he had already returned to his time.
'Kagome...' he thought sadly as the memories they once shared together flashed though his thoughts of her, as an indescribable feeling coursed through his body, blood, heart, mind, and soul.
He had felt as if part of his heart had been torn away...
That's the end of the chapter! I am sorry if it seems kind of sad and depressing at the moment... don't worry! I don't intend for this to be a sad or depressing fanfic! It will be happier later on... Oh! There is going to be a twist in the story... later on in the fanfic, you will find out who it was who was driving the red car! ^_^ 'Why am I smiling?' Oh well... I hope that you like the fanfic! *eats more lemons* Ah... *drools* I love eating lemons... But... I HATE fanfic lemons *shudders*.
Oh, the weirdest thing happened tonight. My stepsister and I were walking to the restaurant for dinner (it was dark outside), and we were discussing astronomy and we heard a really high pitched screeching sound. I thought that it was a really weird sounding whistle or something, but she told me to look up, because she saw bats flying across the moon. It was kinda eerie and freaky, because we live nowhere near wooded areas, and I had never seen a bat before in my life. It was so weird... two random bats, flying high in the sky... Well, I thought that I'd just share that with you!

kitty- =^-^= YAYNESS! Thanks for asking me to update! It makes me SO happy when people review!
LuckyInu17- Oh... Sometimes I start sentences with the same work or name for the... (what's it called?) Literary element? Well, repetition is one of those... But, indeed, sometimes I really just have issues with finding a different word to use... Sorry about that, if it makes reading my story annoying or monotonous or something!

Savage Sky- Sorry for making the story hard to understand! I really should've found a better way to word it when Kagome was hit by the car, but to me, just saying "A red car hit Kagome." Or something sounded... kind of elementary-like... Thanks for reviewing!
freaky_cartoonist- I hope that you don't think that I am taking too long to update! I don't want to update EVERY day, because then less people will review... and I am Sango loves receiving reviews... People tend to see that there are more chapters to read, so they just don't review until the most recent chapter, and I don't like when people do that, because I would like to know what every reader thinks of each chapter, but I guess some people might think that is asking too much... Thanks for reviewing!

Meitantei Lili- Oi! I am glad that you liked my wording for when she found herself at fault for everyone's suffering! ^_^ It takes me a LONG while to find how to make things work in my fanfics... and how to word things... Oh well! Jaa bai bai! Thanks for reviewing!
Single White Rose- Yeah, it was hard for me to write the parts when Kagome and Inu-Yasha suffer... I really want them to be happy... and really, I don't think that Inu-Yasha should pick a DEAD person over Kagome... that annoys the poo outta me... Thanks for reviewing!
