Chapter three

A death, some tears, and a offer

Kagome then panicked. She tried to run in her house but the police that had just arrived held her back. The nurses came back out of the house with Souta on the stretcher with a white sheet covering his whole small frame. She knew that, that meant he was dead but she couldn't believe it.

"You must be Miss Kagome is that correct?"

"Hai, I am"

"We got a call a little bit ago from your little brother. He said that his chest hurt and he kept coughing up blood. He said that he was scared and wanted us to come help. It is apparent that we were to late. He has passed and is a better place. We do not know the cause at the moment."

Kagome just stared at the cop blankly. 'This couldn't be happening! Not to her! Her life was perfect now that Inu Yasha was around. She was happy now actually happy! She just got her first kiss and everything and now her world is crashing as soon as she's happy this just can't be happening!' thought Kagome. (Hey, it sounds like my life! Lol, wait that's not a good thing! Eep!)

Kagome looked around the cop to see her mom being pulled out of the house by two man nurses.(?) Her mom was yelling and screaming her head off that they couldn't take her children away form her as they tried to separate her from the chair and the toaster. Kagome smiled at this. It wasn't that her mom looked really pathetic it was that she cared so much that she wouldn't let go of the chair and toaster. Sure it wasn't them but it was nice she cared. Kagome stared at her mom. Mrs. H's eyes were clouded like they normally were when she wasn't in the real world. Then her eyes cleared and she looked at Kagome and voiced the words "I'm sorry" and let her self be put in the ambulance.

"Kagome I hate to break it to you but you will be going to a home for children. Your brother will be at the hospital for a while for different autopsy's and stuff like that to find the cause of his death. Your mom will be in a mental institution. We shall drive you now get in the car."

Kagome snapped. 'He wasn't gonna make her get in that car! Never! No way was she leaving' "no" she said firmly. Not moving a inch. The cop got an annoyed expression on his face and grabbed her arm yanking her towards the car. She ripped her arm out of his grip and ran the other way as fast as she could.

She didn't take the stairs but ran down the hill kinda thing. (y'all know what I'm talking about right? Her house is kinda on a hill thing.) she tripped and rolled only getting her to the ground faster. She stood up and ran as fast as she could through the forest on the way to school.

She ran right through the forest and into a park with the tree Inu Yasha and her always sit in. she sat in the highest branch where she was most hidden.

Mean While

Inu Yasha ran up the steps. "What's going on?" he yelled. The police glared at him. Inu Yasha glared back. "Okay, if you won't tell me what's going on then at least tell me where Kagome is."

"She ran that way" he said in a harsh tone. Inu Yasha ran in that direction also.

Kagome was still in the tree around twelve o'clock in the morning. Shivering and still crying. She looked down when she heard a noise. Half expecting it to be the cops she looked down and saw Inu Yasha climbing the tree.

"I knew you'd be here!" he said with great happiness.

"What took you so long then?" she asked

"The cops were swarming this place! Since you ran away from them I was guessing you didn't want them to find you."

"Thanks" she mumbled.

"If you want you can come and stay with me but you won't be able to see anyone around here again. Is that okay with you?" Inu Yasha offered.

"Hai" Kagome said and then passed out form the stress. Inu Yasha of course caught her. He held her like he did earlier that day when she fell out of the tree and started for his house.

A/N sorry the chapter and the second one was a little short and rushed sorry ya'll!
