Kurama Pov

After resting for a day we went back to the feudal era. Kagome pushed us along without even noticing it. She would only rest when we forced her too. We could go on for days but she couldn't, I don't know why she wants to go until she passes out but we won't let her. She slowly withdrew within herself each day. Hiei was getting worried about her; it bothered him to no end that he didn't know what was wrong.

I looked at Kagome and noticed that she was slowing down. It was barely noticeable, but she was. I could tell in her aura as well that she needed rest. "Yusuke, I think that we should convince her to rest." I whispered.

He nodded in agreement. "Yeah, I think so too." He walked up to Kagome looking determined to get her to rest. "Kagome, I think that we should rest here for lunch. We all need it, especially you." He said with a concerned look in his eyes.

She glanced at him sideways with a narrowed look but gave in anyway. "Fine." She sighed as she stopped.

We settled down, Yusuke got the water, Hiei got some firewood, Kuwabara helped Kagome set up for lunch, and I caught some fish. She cooked the fish along with some ramen and we ate. Kagome ate a little but I saw her turn a bit green at the smell of the food. She may be getting sick; I just hope that I'm wrong.

After she took a bite she ran behind a tree where she vomited. She came back looking pale and a bit sweaty. Hiei rushed to her side before she collapsed. I went over to where he sat her down and felt her forehead. "She's burning up." I told Hiei.

"I…I'm fine." She tried to say but none of us were hearing it today.

"You're not fine, you have a fever. I can smell it on you." I scolded lightly.

"We have to go and find Naraku." She insisted.

"The only place you're going is home." Hiei stated.

"But…"

"No buts Kagome, you're sick. You're going home and that's final." We started packing things up. Kuwabara put out the fire before we left the area. Yusuke tried to pick up Kagome's pack but after putting it on his back he almost fell backwards into the mud.

"Wow, this has to be ten times her own weight!" He exclaimed as he put it down and rubbed his shoulders glaring at the bag.

Hiei went over and picked it up even he had a hard time with it but he could carry it easier than Yusuke. I carried Kagome, we showed up at the well at dusk. The sun was just beginning to set giving it a pretty picture of red, pink, blue, purple, and gold. We then turned to the well and jumped down into it one by one.

I jumped in last, when I got to the other side her condition had only gotten worse. When I went into her room I placed her on her bed. Hiei put a cold damp cloth on her forehead. "She'll get better soon Hiei." I tried to reassure the apparition. It didn't seem to work.

"I hope so." Was all he said as he left the room.

The Next Morning

I had fallen asleep in a chair by her bed; my back ached when I awoke. I stretched out a bit to ease the tension. I looked at Kagome hopping that she was better this morning. I was wrong, she had only gotten worse. She was pale and sweat was rolling down her face, she was shaking as well. Her cheeks lost their pink tinge.

I felt her forehead and she was burning up by the second. This was serious, her temperature was too high. We had to get her to a hospital immediately. Luckily my mother was a doctor and the hospital where she worked was nearby. (I know that she's not a doctor but in my story she is. She seems to be the type who would do that type of thing anyway.)

"Yusuke!" I called the young detective.

He came running in the room, "What is it Kurama?"

"Call Mushiori Hospital, tell them we're on our way." Yusuke's eyes widened.

"What happened?" He asked.

"Kagome is getting worse by the second. If we don't get her medical attention it could mean her death." Yusuke yanked out his cell phone and dialed 911 and asked for the Hospital.

I picked Kagome up bridal style. Hiei and Kuwabara were downstairs and ready to go the moment I reached the bottom step. We all rushed to the hospital as fast as our feet could go.

I ran over to the desk. "Please get Shiori Minaminow, it's urgent." I said.

The nurse looked at Kagome's condition and went to get my mother. She came through the doors a moment later with a nurse pushing a stretcher close behind her. "Put her on here." She instructed me. I did as told and watched as they took her to a room leaving us in the waiting room.

I sat in a chair as the others did the same. We all had the same thing going through our minds, 'Please be okay Kagome'.
