Chapter 3: Nanashi?
Kagome could feel herself coming back from fainting. She weakly opened her eyes, she looked around. It looked like a hospital room, it even smelt like a hospital. The sickening dull smell of satirizers and plastic.
She slowly sat up, she reached up to her head to feel a wrap. 'I must of fallen harder than I thought.'
She turned her head toward the door when she heard someone knock at the door. The door slowly opened. Kagome could feel her heart race, maybe it was Inuyasha checking up on her. Like he would.
But when the door opened fully, a middle aged man, his hair looked like strings of salt and pepper. But he had a kind face, his rosy cheek and his glittering eyes made his being welcoming. "And how are we feeling?" He asked.
"Uh, just fine." Kagome said simply. Kagome stared at his white coat, how really white it was. Nothing was special about the coat, just something to stare at. Anything at all. The doctor smiled, he walked over to a desk near Kagome he picked up her school I.D.
"So, Kagome Higurashi,. I am Doctor Murata, someone phoned in an accident by the trains." He took a seat in a rolling chair. "You suffered from a very mild concussion, good thing your school has you carry school I.D.'s, otherwise we wouldn't have known who you were, where you lived, or your phone number."
Kagome looked at him, then she remembered. Inuyasha she saw him. "Do you know who phoned the accident?" She had to think of a reason, "I, I want to thank them personally." Kagome lied.
The doctor frowned and shook his head. "I'm afraid not, it was a anonymous call. Cell phone most likely. They just said they had witnessed an accident involving two pedestrians. No name or anything, I am terribly sorry."
Disapointed, Kagome sighed. "It's alright, not your fault. By the way, the other person. The boy on the skateboard is he alright?"
"Fortunately yes, just a couple of scrapes it all. And a good warning." Dr. Murata chuckled, Kagome smiled. But still, she wanted to find him. Find Inuyasha, she was sure it was him. It had to be, no one else in the world had his voice and face.
"Oh, your mother and younger brother are in the waiting room, I think it's safe for you to leave. Just don't do anything dangerous or active for a couple of days, just to be on the safe side." Dr. Murata smiled at Kagome . Handing her school uniform and briefcase, giving he one last smile and nod he left the room.
Kagome headed out of the room, looked left and right. She finally asked one passing nurse the directions to the waiting room. The nurse pointed down the hall. Kagaome smiled and nodded giving the nurse her thanks.
Walking down the hall, she skimmed the walls for a clock. Wondering what time it was, if it was a mild concussion. She wouldn't have been out very long. She saw the shiny round figure hanging from a message board. She stopped at the message board and checked the time. " ten thirty, I was only out for a little fore than a hour and a half." She whispered.
Her eyes transferred themselves to a bright pink paper. Kagome read:
Births Today !
1... 9:03.
2.. 9:30
"A birth chart, two this morning so far." Kagome once again made her way down the hall, checking signs for the waiting room. She finally found a door with a rubber pad next to it reading WAITING ROOM.123. She opened the door, Souta and her mother were sitting towards the middle of the room.. she saw Souta sleeping on her mother's shoulders. Her mother was quietly reading a magazine from the pile in the middle of a table in the middle
Her mother looked up and smiled, and shook Souta. "Souta, Kagome is awake come on lets go."
Souta yawned, rubbed his eyes and looked at Kagome. "Oh sis, we were worried that something bad happened to you when the hospital called!"
"Yeah, well I'm fine now. Lets go I don't like hospitals." Kagome smiled back
The next day Kagome made sure she got up early, but she had a thought. Maybe, Inuyasha would be there by the train station again. She didn't know why, or how. But it seemed to make sense. She quickly got ready and headed down stairs. She got a power bar, grabbed her briefcase and walked out the door. No time for goodbyes today, Kagome was excited and anxious.
What would she do if it wasn't Inuyasha, just a look-a-like? Or what would she do if it was him. Ask him why he was here in her time alive.
Kagome looked up at the sky, at the clouds. Maybe she was just seeing things, her mind giving her false hope. She wanted to see him again, they had spent so much time together. Even the arguing sounded good. Just time together. That's what she wanted, even for a few minutes. Better then nothing.
After awhile she saw the train station. She stopped and stared at it from the distance. She inhaled and exhaled. 'Maybe I'm just fooling myself.' she thought. Kagome shook her head. 'No, I did see him.' She started walking again.
Reaching the platform she waited in line. Not a whole lot of people were here, too early. But Kagome wanted to make sure if he were to come, she would see him.
Checking the people who were already in line, none of them. So she stared at the side walk. Where she would see every person that wanted to ride the train.
She watched the people arrive, little by little more people were coming. But no Inuyasha. Kagome sighed. 'It was worth a try.
She heard the train coming. The chink-chinka-chink-chinka. Of metal. Coming around a small bend the train made it's way to them. The train stopped perfectly in the station, perfect timing, and everything. Well, almost everything.
A man exited the train. "Alright everyone aboard single file." He stepped out of the way for every one to board. This time Kagome got a seat, after watching every one board. The door began to close. But someone ran to the train in a hurry, barely making the closing of the door. A young man, looking quite familiar. Began to walk the aisle. "Young man, you were close. Next time get here early." Instructed 'entering man.'
"Yeah yeah." The young man spoke sarcastically. Kagome looked at him, but made sure he wouldn't see her looking at him.. When he came to pass her seat she quickly jerked her head to look out the window. She could feel him standing by her seat.
"Hey, aren't you that girl from yesterday?" She heard him ask. She shyly turned her head to look at him. and smile awkwardly. "Oh, uh yeah."
"Oh, are you the boy who phoned the accident?" She asked, pretending to be surprised. "Is everyone seated?" The man up front asked. Kagome politely slid over to allow the Inuyasha-look-alike to sit. He sat and nodded
"Keh, yeah. Looks like you're fine though, you should look where you're goin'" He said roughly. Ah, how that sounded good.
"Thanks." Kagome said thanked shyly. For some reason it felt like she was meeting him for the first time. It was Inuyaha wasn't it? It sounded like him.
"So, what's you're name?" Kagome asked, she secretly hoped that this boy would finally say something like. 'Kagome it's me Inuyasha!' Like the whole thing was a joke. But, it seemed he didn't know who she was.
"Nanashi." He answered. Guess no joke. She Smiled and nodded. And reached her hand over to him. He took her hand and they shook hands. "Kagome Higurashi." Nanashi suddenly looked surprised. He released her hand frowned and looked at the back of the seat that was in front of them.. "Kagome Higurashi." He repeated. "Yeah, what's wrong?" A sudded burst of hope fluttered through Kagome, maybe he was remembering.
"Just sounds familiar, have I met you somewhere before besides yesterday.?" He asked looking at her.
Kagome smiled, she glanced out of the window to look at the passing objects. "Maybe in some other time."

Poem( DON'T COPY)
VampireYoukai
Now you are gone
I miss you so, I can telly by my tears,
you used to protect me from all my darkest fears
but now you are gone, there is nothing that will console
in this cold bitter place that wraps around my injured soul
But now you are gone, and the light in my mind is starting to fade
We grew happier together by our new friends that we made
But now you are gone, and I try to remember the love in you eyes
I want to remember the look of love, instead of the past's lies
But now you are gone far, far away
I still have hope to see you again, I know there is a way
