Chapter 14
"Kagome, is Yasha alright?" Sango asked as she handed her friend a cup of coffee.
Kagome took a sip of the black brew in her cup before she answered. "Why do you ask, Sango?" She questioned.
Sango glanced over at the big white dog lying by Kagome's feet. "Well, he's been sleeping ever since you woke up. That's not like him. Usually he's playing with Shippo or Kirara about now." Sango replied as she shifted her gaze to the little fox cub that was playing with her two tailed cat.
Kagome frowned. 'She's right. Usually I would be hearing him growling at Shippo.' She thought. She pushed herself out of the chair and knelt on the floor beside Inuyasha.
She reached over and gently patted him on his head. "C'mon, Yasha. Don't you wanna go play with Shippo and Kirara?" She asked. She was concerned when Yasha let out a loud moan.
'Leave me alone, wench. Let me sleep.' Inuyasha moaned when he felt Kagome's hand gently caressing his furry head.
"Maybe I should take him to the vet." Kagome suggested after another attempt of trying to get the dog up.
Sango knelt down on the floor next to her blind friend. "He does look a little out of it." She agreed.
Kirara jumped up on the kitchen table as Shippo went skidding under neath it. 'Hey, that's no fair! I can't get you up there!' Shippo complained and tried to jump up on one of the kitchen chairs.
Kirara smirked at him. 'That's the idea of it.' She replied and daintily liked one of her paws.
Shippo sat on the floor, grumbling about how cats always cheated at games. He got a glint in his green eyes when he noticed the sleeping Inuyasha.
He quietly snuck up behind the huge dog, trying not to make a sound. 'Got ya!' He yelped happily as he pounced on Inuyasha's back.
He bit down on Inuyasha's ears playfully and then took off running, his paws sliding on the kitchen floor as he did so.
Shippo was expecting to hear Inuyasha curse and chase after him, yelling threats like he usually did, but he heard no cursing, threats, or the sound of Inuyasha chasing after him.
Shippo stopped his skidding/running and turned around to see Inuyasha still laying by the chair that his human, Kagome, had been sitting in moments ago.
He cocked his head to the side in confusion and walked back over to the big white dog. 'Inuyasha? Are you sleeping?' Shippo asked and lowered his face down so that it was level with Inuyasha's.
Inuyasha cracked open one of his amber eyes and glared at Shippo. 'Yeah, I am sleeping. Now go away.' He said and closed his eye.
Shippo's bushy fox tail began to wag. 'If your asleep then why are you talking?' He asked and sat down.
Inuyasha began to growl. 'Look runt, I was up all night, running all over the neighborhood and trying to get back here before the humans woke up, and some how I managed to pull it off. All I ask for is a little sleep. Now go away and leave me alone!' He growled even louder, hoping it would scare the fox cub enough to make him leave.
Shippo tilted his head again. 'Why were you out all night?' He asked in an innocent sounding voice.
Inuyasha groaned and rolled over on his side, trying to ignore the annoying voice of the fox.
Kirara, who had been watching the whole scene from atop the table, laughed and jumped off of the table to land next to Shippo.
'Is the little puppy dog sleepy?' Kirara asked in an almost taunting voice.
She got no reply from Inuyasha. He was, once again, snoozing away.
Kirara shook her head and stood up to leave. 'Come on, Shippo. Lets go play.' She said and began to run from the little fox cub as he began to chase after her.
"Sango, could you drive me to the vet, please?" Kagome asked her friend, still stroking her dogs head.
Sango rose from her squatting position. "Sure. Just let me grab my keys." She said and walked towards her bedroom where she had set her keys down on her dresser.
Kagome also rose and grabbed her walking stick and began to walk towards the living room so that she could grab Yasha's leash.
Inuyasha heard Kagome's walking stick tapping on the floor and he felt the urge to follow her. 'Damn instinks.' He mumbled and pushed himself up on all fours and lazily followed her and plopped back down at her feet when she stopped to get his leash off of the hook by the door.
Kagome had heard when Yasha had followed her and she knelt down next to him once again. "I hope your not sick, Yasha." She said as she felt around his neck for his collar.
There was a knock at the door and Kagome straightened and felt for the door knob. "Who is it?" She called, her hand resting on the door knob.
"Its me, Miroku." A voice called from the other side of the door.
Kagome felt a small smile come to her face despite her concern for her dog. "Hey, Miroku." She said as she opened the door to Sango's boyfriend.
Miroku stepped into the house and noticed the worried look on Kagome's face. "Hey, why the long face?" He asked the blind girl.
Kagome shook her head. "Nothing. Yasha is just a little under the weather today." She replied.
Miroku glanced down, noticing the dog for the first time. "So, this is the dog that made me lose the bet." He muttered.
Kagome frowned when she heard that. "Okay, what bet? Sango mentioned her winning a bet earlier and when I asked her what it was she didn't tell me." She said, slight frustration apparent in her voice.
Miroku coughed. "I'd rather not say." He replied and coughed again.
Kagome was really frustrated by the answer that she got from Miroku and opened her mouth to ask her question again but Sango chose to enter the room just then.
"Kagome, I can't find my keys, oh, never mind, Miroku can give us a ride." She said when she saw her boyfriend standing in the doorway.
Miroku put on a fake frown. "Hello to you to, Sango." He said and crossed his arms. Sango just rolled her eyes and flipped her dark brown hair over her shoulder.
"And just where am I going to be taking you two lovely ladies?" He questioned.
Sango smiled sweetly at her boyfriend. "You are going to take me, Kagome, and Yasha to the vet so that Yasha can get checked out." She said.
Miroku shrugged his shoulders calmly. "Okay." He said simply and turned and walked back towards his car.
'He's trying to suck up to me so I won't make him carry out his end of the bet.' Sango thought as she stared at Miroku's retreating back. 'Sorry Miroku, but you aren't gonna sweet talk your way outta this one.' She thought with a smirk.
She turned to look at Kagome. "You ready to go, Kagome?" She asked.
Kagome nodded her head and gently tugged on Yasha's leash to get him off the floor and moving.
Inuyasha reluctantly stood and followed Kagome out into the bright sunshine and towards Miroku's car.
Sango opened the back door of the car for Kagome and waited for her and Yasha to get in.
'Great, a car ride.' Inuyasha thought as he crawled into the back seat, curled up and fell asleep once again.
**
Kagome, Sango, Miroku, and Inuyasha walked into the large veterinarian building.
Kagome heard several dogs barking, car meowing pitifully from cages and people talking. She let Sango lead her up to the front desk.
"Excuse me, could I have a vet take a look at my dog, please?" She asked as she felt the desk with her hands.
The lady looked behind the desk looked up with a smile. She got a look of confusion on her face when she noticed Kagome staring blankly ahead of her. "Of course. Just fill out these forms and one of our vets will be right with you." She said and held out a single sheet of paper.
Kagome reached out to grab the paper. She felt around for a second or two before she finally grasped it in her hand. "Thank you." She said and turned around to walk towards the waiting area.
When the receptionist noticed the dog leading Kagome she realized that she was blind.
Kagome let Yasha lead her to the seating area and she seated herself in a cushioned chair. "Sango, could you fill these out for me, please?" She asked and held out the paper.
Sango smiled as she took a seat next to Kagome and took the paper from her blind friend. "Of course Kagome." She said kindly.
Sango pulled out a pen from her purse and began to fill out the paper, reading the questions aloud so Kagome could tell her what to write.
Owner: Higurashi Kagome.
Phone Number: 465-8736
Address: 269 Old Well Road Kyoto Japan
Dogs Name: Yasha
Dog breed: Husky
Weight: 100 plbs.
Age: ?
Sango finished filling out the paper and walked over to the lady behind the desk and handed the paper back to her.
The receptionist took the paper. "Thank you. A vet will be with you shortly." She said.
Sango nodded and walked back over to Kagome and Miroku.
Inuyasha was almost overwhelmed by the scents in the building.
He smelled dogs, cats, birds, humans, and a lot of other scents. It was also the noisiest place he had ever heard before. Not only were the humans talking, but he could also hear the animals.
He watched as one dog, a German Shepherd, was be drugged by a woman towards a back room. 'Don't fix me!' He was whining, trying desperately to pull away from the woman. 'I'll never look at another female ever, I swear!' He continued to whine pitifully.
'Don't take my man hood! Not my man hood!' He instantly shut up when a attractive female coli walked by. His ears perked up. 'Hey baby, you looking pretty sweet there.' He said and continued to stare at the female dog.
The coli lifted her head up and ignored the German Shepherd and continued walking.
The other dog continued staring until his owner began pulling him towards the back room again. 'No, no, no!' He began whining once again.
Inuyasha shook his head. 'What a wuss.' He muttered and lowered himself to a sitting position.
'Is this your first time to a vet?' A voice asked off to Inuyasha's right.
Inuyasha looked over and spotted a dalmatian sitting next to him. 'Yeah, what of it?' He asked with a little growl.
The dalmatian shook his head. 'You have no idea how horrible it is.' He said with a sorrowful look on his spotted face.
Inuyasha cocked his head to the side in curiosity. 'What are you talking about?' He asked, trying to fight back the yawn that he felt coming.
The dalmatian shook his head again. 'Some animals that go in there don't come back. The vet is awful!' He exclaimed.
'The vet pretends to be your friend until they get your trust, then they stick you and poke you with their needles and they look in your ears and force your mouth open and throw pills down your throat and hold your mouth shut and make you nearly choke on the pill while you swallow it.' He said with a shudder.
Inuyasha cocked his head to the side. 'Feh, I ain't scared of no needle.' He said, but when the dalmatian wasn't looking he gave a little shake.
"Ms. Higurashi?" An elderly woman called. She had on a white coat, and her long grey hair was pulled back into a low pony-tail and her eyes were kind.
Kagome, at hearing her name called, stood up pulling gently on Yasha's leash. "Sango, can you and Miroku come back to?" She asked and tilted her head to the side.
Sango rose from her seat. "Sure, Kagome." She replied and laid her hand on her blind friends shoulder.
Sango kept her hand on Kagome's shoulder and followed the vet back into a back room that had a large metal table in the middle of it.
"Please get your dog on to the table and I will be right back with his file." The elderly vet said and walked out of the room.
Kagome held out her hands and when the came in contact with cold metal she stopped. "Come on, Yasha." She said and gently patted the top of the metal table, trying to get him to jump up on to it.
Inuyasha snorted. 'If you think I'm gonna jump up on that thing your crazy. Wench.' He added as an after thought.
Miroku sighed at the meaningful look that Sango was giving him and walked over to the large white dog. He bent down, put his arms under the dogs belly and lifted him up and sat him down on the table.
"You need to put this dog on a diet." Miroku commented with a grunt.
Inuyasha turned to glare at him. But it wasn't very effective because a yawn chose to come out of him at that exact same moment.
'I'll deal with the guy later.' He thought and lowered himself into a laying position.
Kagome was by Yasha's side and was gently stroking the soft fur on his head. Inuyasha sighed in contentment when she started to rub his ears. 'A dogs life ain't so bad.' He thought as his eyes slowly drifted shut.
The elderly vet came back into the room. "My name is Kaede. What seems to be wrong with this dog?" She asked and walked over to the half asleep dog that was on the table.
Kagome turned her head towards the vets voice. "He doesn't seem to have any energy. Usually he growling and chasing my little fox cub, but this morning the only thing he wanted to do was sleep." She explained.
Kaede nodded her head and moved to look in Inuyasha's eyes. "Lovely eyes." She commented when she saw the amber depths of the dogs eyes.
Kagome tilted her head. "What color are they?" She asked timidly.
Kaede glanced up at her and noticed that her eyes were staring blankly at the wall behind her. 'This girl must be blind.' She concluded.
"They are a amber/gold color." She replied.
Kaede went about examining the large Husky dog. "There is nothing wrong with your dog. He just seems to be tired." She concluded and she saw the look of relief that crossed the blind girls face.
Kaede looked down at the information of the dog. "Has Yasha had his rabbi's shot?" She asked.
Kagome shook her head. "No, this is the first time I've taken him to the vet." She replied.
Kaede raised a brow. "Not even when he was a puppy?" She asked.
Kagome shook her head. "I don't know if he's ever been to the vet before. He was a stray when I got him." She replied.
Kaede nodded her head. "If you have the time I would like to give him a rabbi shot." She said.
Kagome nodded her head in agreement.
At the word 'shot' Inuyasha's head snapped up.
Kaede walked over to a cabinet and pulled out a syringe with a small needle.
When Inuyasha saw how small the needle was he almost snorted. 'That's what that spotted mutt was scared of?' He thought and shook his head.
Kaede walked back over to the table. "I will need one of you to hold him still while I give him the shot." She said.
Miroku stepped forward and wrapped his arms around the big white dog.
Inuyasha didn't even try to struggle when the elderly vet picked up his left paw. But his calm didn't last long.
He didn't feel a thing when she pushed the needle into his skin, but when she began to push the liquid that was inside of it was when he jumped with a yelp.
Miroku held him fast and Inuyasha began to growl.
"All done." Kaede said as she pulled the needle out of the dogs leg and Miroku released him and jumped back so that the dog wouldn't attempt to bite the hand that had held him in place.

Miroku sighed at the meaningful look that Sango was giving him and walked over to the large white dog. He bent down, put his arms under the dogs belly and lifted him up and sat him down on the table.
"You need to put this dog on a diet." Miroku commented with a grunt.
Inuyasha turned to glare at him. But it wasn't very effective because a yawn chose to come out of him at that exact same moment.
'I'll deal with the guy later.' He thought and lowered himself into a laying position.
Kagome was by Yasha's side and was gently stroking the soft fur on his head. Inuyasha sighed in contentment when she started to rub his ears. 'A dogs life ain't so bad.' He thought as his eyes slowly drifted shut.
The elderly vet came back into the room. "My name is Kaede. What seems to be wrong with this dog?" She asked and walked over to the half asleep dog that was on the table.
Kagome turned her head towards the vets voice. "He doesn't seem to have any energy. Usually he growling and chasing my little fox cub, but this morning the only thing he wanted to do was sleep." She explained.
Kaede nodded her head and moved to look in Inuyasha's eyes. "Lovely eyes." She commented when she saw the amber depths of the dogs eyes.
Kagome tilted her head. "What color are they?" She asked timidly.
Kaede glanced up at her and noticed that her eyes were staring blankly at the wall behind her. 'This girl must be blind.' She concluded.
"They are a amber/gold color." She replied.
Kaede went about examining the large Husky dog. "There is nothing wrong with your dog. He just seems to be tired." She concluded and she saw the look of relief that crossed the blind girls face.
Kaede looked down at the information of the dog. "Has Yasha had his rabbi's shot?" She asked.
Kagome shook her head. "No, this is the first time I've taken him to the vet." She replied.
Kaede raised a brow. "Not even when he was a puppy?" She asked.
Kagome shook her head. "I don't know if he's ever been to the vet before. He was a stray when I got him." She replied.
Kaede nodded her head. "If you have the time I would like to give him a rabbi shot." She said.
Kagome nodded her head in agreement.
At the word 'shot' Inuyasha's head snapped up.
Kaede walked over to a cabinet and pulled out a syringe with a small needle.
When Inuyasha saw how small the needle was he almost snorted. 'That's what that spotted mutt was scared of?' He thought and shook his head.
Kaede walked back over to the table. "I will need one of you to hold him still while I give him the shot." She said.
Miroku stepped forward and wrapped his arms around the big white dog.
Inuyasha didn't even try to struggle when the elderly vet picked up his left paw. But his calm didn't last long.
He didn't feel a thing when she pushed the needle into his skin, but when she began to push the liquid that was inside of it was when he jumped with a yelp.
Miroku held him fast and Inuyasha began to growl.
"All done." Kaede said as she pulled the needle out of the dogs leg and Miroku released him and jumped back so that the dog wouldn't attempt to bite the hand that had held him in place.
