This is only: Realities Dream
Chapter 2
March 20, 1997 Tokyo
The hospital was loud and deathly silent all at the same time. A crowd of reporters, and cameras were being held back by a few police man who were rapidly losing strength.
However in the mists of all this stood a family of three watching a young girl being rushed away from them on a pail white stretcher.
"Do you think she will wake up Grandpa?"
"I don't know Sota . . . We will have to wait and see."
"News Channel 5: BREAKING NEWS!!! We go to Momo for the details. . . Momo?"
"The newest victim of this 'coma horror' was rushed to a specialty hospital out side of Tokyo today. Miss Higurashi, Kagome has already shown the typical signs of C.H. strange wounds showing up on her skin only to disappear a few minutes later, muttering strange words and phrases, and a series of convolutions. When we asked Doctor Shinju to comment on her status, he said she was, "As stable as the rest of them." This evening the rest of the Higurashi family is going to meet up with the other victims' families along with Doctor Shinju in hopes of finding some reason for why this is happening. That's all for now; we'll update as soon as we learn more. Back to you Toji."
"Thanks Momo. In other news, these tragedies don't seem to be stopping the Taioyoukai Family and there merger with-"
"Shut it off Sess! I've heard enough of this and besides we're going to be late!"
"Alright. . . Dad!"

The room was filled with all the parents of the C.H. patients. All six families sat along a long wooden table in one of the hospitals many rooms. The room it self was a pail cream color with a few windows scattered here and there. Although the room was now filled with people the room was deadly silent.
At exactly Five O'clock a sandy haired man dressed in a white lab coat walked into the room. All stood when he entered, some greeting him with a small smile, others looking at him with glimpses of hope.
He made it to the head of the table and sat before addressing a few other doctors to his left and right. Everyone sat down and he began to speak.
"Doctor Mika, Doctor Hajji, and I after great deliberation have come up with a plan to bring Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kagome, Inu-Yasha, and Kouga back to us, with you're consent we will be able to begin with the preparations tonight." Doctor Shinju, stood and to the screen behind him. "This is what we will do. . ."
March 23, 1997 Tokyo
That was three days ago and the preparations were under way and the actual procedure was to take place by the end of next week.
"Do you think it'll work mama? Will shocking them really work? Is that all it takes, some electricity? Mama.... Are they going to be all right?"
"I don't know Sota....... I just don't know......"
Sota, an eight year old boy of about four feet tall and sporting the same black hair and blue eye's as Kagome and was currently going out of his mind of boredom. What was a little kid supposed to do in cases like this.
'Let's see....' Sota told him self. 'Mama's depressed so what should I do to cheer her up? A joke....? No, I've all ready tried that. I could fall on my butt, she and Kag used to laugh at that.... No-o, this is a hospital she'd likely send me to go see a nurse or something...Hmm.... What to do, what to do.....'
"Sota-a...... SOta-a.... SOTA!"
"WHA-?!" Sota jumped, he was so into his thinking that he didn't notice that another young boy had entered the room.
This boy looked to be about nine or ten and bared an amazing likeness to Sota, only his hair was more of a dark brown then black, and his eyes were a light honey color. "Kohaku! Don't scare me like that!"
"Sorry," He apologized while rubbing the back of his head with his right hand and holding up his left showing its' contents to the room. "I just go it! The new Final Fantasy X2 game..... Wanna' play?"
Sota took a long look back at his mother, who was sitting in a sterol looking chair while gazing longingly out the small white window toward the painted sunset sky. 'I'll bet wishing Kagome would just bust through saying something to the akin of, "Sorry I'm late! I forgot to set my alarm!" '
'I wish I could help her...' He watched as a lonely tear slipped down her face. 'She's cried so much I wish there was something I could do to make her stop.'
"So, Sota what do you say?" Kohaku said, try not to notice the scene playing in front of him. 'He just needs to get away for it for a while.'
Sota turned his head back to the direction of Kohaku, "Why not?" he sighed and with Kohaku walked out the door.
Miss Higurashi was so lost in thought that when her son left she didn't even notice although when her daughter's bed gave an involuntary leap she couldn't help but snap her head in its direction.
"Kagome!!!" She screamed.
Her daughter was no longer lying peacefully on the bed but crumbled on the floor. She took a step forward and then noticed she was standing on something wet.
"OH MY GOD! SOME ONE HELP!" Blood was creeping along the floor staining the crisp white room with a sticky crimson substance.
In no time at all three nurses were in the room putting Kagome back on her bed while, "Paging Dr. Hajji, Dr. Hajji your presence is needed in room 506, Paging Dr. Hajji."
Room 501 (Sango's)
"What's going on? That's my sister's room." Sota shot up from playing the game and ran past the elevators and reception desk into room 506, Kagome's room, with Kohaku right on his heels.
"Stop!" he screamed, "Don't go in there!"
However it was all ready to late, Sota just stood there eyes glazed then his brain finally met eyes and he started screaming. "What happened!?"
Kohaku grabbed him behind the waist and pulled him aside. Dr. Hajji ran past them and into the room. "Stop, Sota. Calm down, she'll be all right!"
Sota suddenly stopped moving, then turned and threw his next words in his face. "How do you know?"
"BECAUSE- because this has happened before.....To Sango, Inu-Yasha, and even Miroku.... They all get through it don't worry. I don't even think they call Inu-Yasha's dad when it happens to him any more and Mother doesn't even cry, she just sits there, holds Sis's hand, and prays." Kohaku let go of Sota, his face was something between a cross of pity, sadness, and aggravation. Kohaku blinked a few times then said, "Come on..... Let's give them some room. She'll be fine in a little while."
"Okay," Sota nodded. Then they turned and went back to Sango's room.
Room 506 (Kagome's)
Dr. Hajji rushed into the room with a whirlwind of orders, "What is she still doing on the floor?! Get her on the bed! Rei....." He said, looking at a young woman in her late teens, with honey colored hair. "What's wrong?"
"Her left leg is broken in two places, her right arm is dislocated, and she has multiple cuts and bruises along her torso." She said in a light and airy voice, but it had an under tone of determination and absolute seriousness.
During this time Kagome had been lifted back on to her bed and straightened out. She had also been hooked up to multitude of 'beeping' machines.
"Okay, I'll have to put her arm back in.... Yuri, Idou.... Get a stretcher ready we have to take x-rays and put her leg in a cast. As for the cuts and bruises clean and bandage her up as best you can."
As Miss Higurashi watched in horror as the two appointed nurses left to get a stretcher. And as Rei held down Kagome so that Dr. Hajji could put Kagome's right shoulder back in place. There was not much more that could be done, other than measure her vitals and bandage her as best they could.
"Please Kagome, wake up."
