Problems

Disclaimer: I do not own anything from InuYasha. Though I would love to Sesshoumaru!

Chapter 3-

The door opens again, Sesshomaru had pulled out the gun he was reaching for earlier, but it was only Miruko who had walked in, both Sango and Miruko grew pale at the sight of the gun. Sesshomaru sighed and put the gun back on his belt.

"I guess you guys are wondering about the gun."

Both nodded their heads.

"Well have, Sango have you heard of The Vampire, I think thats what the newspaper called him."

Miruko's jaw dropped and his eye's got really big, but Sango didn't notice as she answered,"Thats the guy who has been killing women by biting the artery in their neck, and draining their blood, right?"

"Yes, and Miruko, my half-brother InuYasha, was released one week before the murders started."

Miruko gasped,"You mean they actually paroled InuYasha?!"

Sesshomaru nodded.

"How could they do that?"

Sango interrupted asking,"Who is InuYasha and what are you two talking about?"

"My half-brother IS The Vampire, he was in prison, but he was somehow able to send me threatening letters around the time I...," Sesshomaru paused but continued,"left Kagome. He was in jail for killing our parents and Miruko's parents."

Sango's eyes widened,"You left, because you were worried for her and the baby."

Sesshomaru nodded.

"You baka! Why didn't you tell her?"

"So she could come with me and put herself and the baby in danger? I don't think so," Sesshomaru just suddenly stopped moving, his eyes had focused on the door. He could hear someone approaching.

He made a motion to silently get by the open window,"There is a fire escape there I want you to go down it if the door opens got it?" Sesshomaru whispered as he grabbed and cocked his gun.

When the footsteps stopped, he motioned for Miruko and Sango to go down the fire escape, right after he did that gunshots were heard, there were holes on the door and Sesshomaru had a bloody spot on his left shoulder, he shot back as he yelled for them to leave. When they started going down, he followed them hoping InuYasha wouldn't start shooting from the window. He was slower than Miruko and Sango, because of the gunshot wound. He heard more gunshots, and prayed InuYasha was a bad shot. When he finally reached the ground he saw Miruko and Sango huddled under the over hang of the building.

"Did you bring cars?" Sesshomaru asked, when he received nods he continued,"Ok, I'm going with Miruko, Sango I want you to drive to your place and Mirku will follow, if we flash you I want you to start taking turns and going in circles, because it will mean we are being followed, and when we get to your house I want you to get out Miruko's supplies. Got it?" Miruko and Sango nodded again, and wnet to their cars Sesshomaru followed pressing his right hand to his wound on his left shoulder to hopefully slow the bleeding. Sesshomaru got in the passener side and buckled up, the put his right hand back to his shoulder to slow the bleeding and to make sure the seat belt didn't irritate his shoulder.

"Does Sango know to go fast?" Sesshomaru asked as he applied even more pressure.

"Yes, do you need a doctor?"

"What do you think I meant when I told Sango to get your supplies?"

Miruko sighed,"Thats right, I'm a doctor, did the bullet go through?"

"No, so I won't bleed to death but it will hurt like hell when you are digging around my shoulder to find and extract it."

Miruko nodded.

Sesshomaru grunted and slumped against the door,"I'm sorry I came back. I should have known he would follow me."

"Then why did you come back?"

"I wanted to see Kagome and my child, in case he caught me before I had a chance to tell Kagome the real reason I hurt her."

Miruko shook his head,"You hurt her really badly, she was counting on you to help her."

"Don't you think, I tried to find another way? That day, five years ago I was going to ask her to come with me and I was going to explain the problem, but then she told me she was pregnant, and I realized how selfish I was being, so I decided I wouldn't put her or my child in danger. Gods I screwed that up majorily. Do you know how much it hurt to walk away from her when she needed me most? When she was crying, I heard her heartbreak, I felt it, and it surpassed my own pain, by so much. How can I expect her to forgive me let alone to take me back?"

Miruko didn't know what to say, but he didn't have to say anything, because they were infront of the house.

Sesshomaru grunted as he stepped out of the car, and he slumped against the car, Miruko hurried and let Sesshomaru lean against him. Sango had gone past them and opened the door while asking Rin to go and get Kagome.

Before Rin went to get Kagome her eyes widened in recognization,"Hey thats the nice man Rin met before."

"Rin go get your mom,"Sango repeated and watched as Rin ran to go get her.

When Kagome came downstairs, she saw Sesshomaru laying on the couch, his shirt off, Miruko bending over Sesshomaru and Sesshomaru looked delirious.

"Whats going on?"

Miruko jumped and Sesshomaru growled at the pain Miruko's sudden movement caused. Kagome was able to see the injury on Sesshomaru and the bullet in Miruko's hand.

"At least I got the bullet Sess, now I need to stitch you up, so this is going to hurt."

"Sesshomaru was shot by his brother, InuYasha, who also happens to be The Vampire," Sango said.

Kagome gasped,"Oh no," she rushed to the otherside of Miruko and grabbed Sesshomaru's right hand and squeezed.

"Kagome.."Sesshomaru says and everyone realizes he is asleep.

"He has been saying your name a lot Kagome,"Miruko said as he continued to stitch Sesshomaru up,

"Well I'm done, I'm going to go and clean up. Come on Sango, you'll need to clean up too."

Sango and Miruko made their way to the door, but they paused.

"Kagome, We know that you are mad at Sesshomaru and we know you have the right, but we also know Sesshomaru means it when he says he is sorry. He doesn't say it often and he says it even less if he doesn't mean it. He knows what he did was wrong, but maybe you should listen to what he has to say," Sango said for Miruko and herself, then left the room.

Kagome's eyes had widened as she watched them leave the room but her attention was brought back to Sesshomaru when he started thrashing his legs.

"Kagome....No! Kagome!" Sesshomaru shot up and looked around.

"Sesshomaru?" Kagome said nervously.

"Kagome?" Sesshomaru said, then hugged her with his right arm," I was so afraid I would never get the chance to let you know how sorry I am and how much I want to make up everything I did to you," he said into her hair.
