They reached the hospital and was pointed towards the right direction of the room they needed by a clerk in the lobby. They took the elevator, and InuYasha didn't seem to care. Kagome had expected him to atleast growl at the automatic doors. Mrs. Higurashi found the room and led her own daughter and InuYasha in. InuYasha sat down in the empty waiting room, while Mrs. Higurashi and Kagome talked to a secretary.
"Go sit down, Kagome. I'll take care of the work." Mrs. Higurashi commanded lightly. She nodded and sat down next to InuYasha, her child in her arms.
"I'm sorry, Kagome." InuYasha whispered with a shaky voice.
"Why? This isn't you fault." Kagome stated.
"I can't protect Koyuki from this."
"I'm sure she'll be fine." Kagome soothed. He was on the verge of tears, despite Kagome's words. He heard his daughter's wheezes, and it tore him apart. Mrs. Higurashi sat down next to her daughter. They were soon called up and escourted into a room. InuYasha sat on the floor, Mrs. Higurashi stood, and Kagome sat in the only chair with Koyuki in her arms. A few minutes later, a female nurse came in.
"I need to get a blood sample from your daughter." the nurse told Kagome. She nodded, glanced at InuYasha, then hesitantly held out Koyuki. The woman reached out to take Koyuki, but stopped when she heard InuYasha ferociously growl. Both the nurse and Kagome looked at him. He was on his feet, his claws at the ready, baring his fangs, and ferociously growling.
"It's okay..." Kagome told him. He dropped his claws to his side, and Kagome gave Koyuki to the nurse. The nurse walked out and Kagome walked over to InuYasha. "They won't do anything to her." Kagome soothed. InuYasha stiffened when he heard Koyuki's cries.
"MY ASS!!" He screamed as he ran past Kagome and after the sound of his crying daughter.
"InuYasha!!" Kagome shouted as she ran after him. Mrs. Higurashi followed behind. About 5 minutes later, they found InuYasha. He was being restrained by atleast 20 people, all who worked at the hospital. He was growling tremendously, baring his fangs, and desperately pulling towards his daughter.
"Koyuki!!" he cried. Kagome had only seen InuYasha act with such determination when she had been kidnapped by a demon, or when he was trying to free himself from the roots when Kaguya shot her with her own arrow. The nurse holding Koyuki who she tried to get a blood sample from, was backed against the wall in fear of InuYasha. She had not even pulled the blanket from the child's head to reveal her ears. One male restraining InuYasha knocked him unconscious. The entire group dropped InuYasha onto the floor. The force of which he hit the ground caused his hat to fall off. The entire group backed away from InuYasha. Mrs. Higurashi and Kagome both panicked. Kagome ran over to InuYasha and kneeled next to him. His head was bleeding from the fierce blow.
"InuYasha!!" Kagome cried. He heard both his daughter's crying and Kagome's shouts.
"Kagome..." he muttered.
"InuYasha, wake up!!!" Kagome shouted as she shook him. Soon, a police officer walked in.
"I got a call for a bitof rucus down at this hospital." He stated firmly. Kagome and Mrs. Higurashi looked up at him. Kagome quickly stuck the hat back on InuYasha's head. The male that had knocked InuYasha out whispered something to the officer. The officer nodded and walked over to InuYasha. He grabbed the unconscious hanyou's clawed hands and pulled them behind his back. He pulled handcuffs from his belt and snapped them around InuYasha's wrists.
"What're you doing?!" Kagome questioned.
"He's under arrest for public assault." Returned the answer. "If you want to get him out, it's a bail of 1500 yen." He hauled the unconscious half-demon down to his car with Kagome shouting angrily. She didn't know how to explain without revealing that he was from 500 years ago in the Sengoku Jidai. "It's a bail of 1500 yen. That's the only way unless you want to see him anywhere from 6 months to a year." The officer said harshly as he began to pull out from the hospital.
"Damn it..." Kagome whispered to herself. She hated to curse, but she was miserable right now. Her daughter was horribly ill and now InuYasha was in jail. Tears streamed down her face; tears of anger and sadness. Kagome walked back into the hospital and sat in the room with her mother.
"Kagome... Are you alright?" Mrs. Higurashi asked.
"Koyuki could die and InuYasha's been arrested..." She mumbled angrily and sadly. "Koyuki, being a half-demon, could be rejected from the hospital and die from this illness." Soon, Kagome and Mrs. Higurashi heard the nurse which was getting Koyuki's blood sample scream. Kagome stood up and ran after the sound. Mrs. Higurashi followed, again, but not as quickly. The nurse was backed away from Koyuki with a terrified expression. She had unveiled Koyuki's demon features, and she was shocked.
"S-she has d-dog e-e-ears..." The woman stuttered.
"Please... She's harmless. Just find out what's wrong!" Kagome pleaded as she fell to her knees in tears. "Please!" The nurse watched Kagome, and nodded. Her terrified expression diminished, and she walked back over to Koyuki. She was nervous, but ignored it. Kagome soon walked back to the room, staring at the floor with her tear-filled gaze. Mrs. Higurashi soon caught up and walked up to Kagome. She walked with Kagome back to the room. Soon, the nurse walked back into the room with Koyuki and an answer as to what was wrong.
