Serenity sat in her room with a towel wrapped around her. "I wonder what I doctor is...hope it won't hurt..." thought serenity. Inu-yasha came into the room with Serenity's clothes. Serenity couldn't recognize her overalls at first, she was used to them being red, now they were pink.

"I washed them in the washing machine, I don't want you wearing dirty clothes after you've been bathed" said Inu-yasha. Serenity nodded and took her clothes. She looked at Inu-yasha for a second. "Oh, still shy I see" said Inu-yasha as he left the room. Serenity sighed and got dressed carefully so she wouldn't hurt her back anymore.

After dressing herself, she went to the door, stood up on her tip-toes and opened it. "You ready to go to the doctor ?" asked Inu-yasha. "Will it hurt ?" asked serenity. "No, your just going so we can see whats wrong with your back" said Inu-yasha. "Ok" said serenity. Inu-yasha picked serenity up and carried her downstairs and out the door. Inu-yasha opened the garage and opened the back door to his car and set serenity in and buckled her in the seatbelt. Inu-yasha went and got in the drivers seat and didn't bother to put his seatbelt on.

When Inu-yasha started the car serenity jumped and looked around. "What was that ?!" asked serenity. "It was the car" said Inu-yasha. "I've never heard that sound before ! Do it again !" chimed Serenity. "Ok, only one more time. We have to get you to the doctor" said Inu-yasha. He took the key out of the ignition and put them in again and started the car once again. Serenity giggled from the sound the car made. Inu-yasha smiled and pulled the car out of the garage and drove off into town.

Serenity looked out of the window and saw lots of buildings going by as they drove. She was amazed at this. Inu-yasha looked at her through the rearview mirror. He chuckled and rolled the window down so serenity could have a better view. Instead, Serenity screamed a tiny bit.

"How'd you make the window do that ?!! Is it alive ?!!" cried serenity. "No, I rolled it down from up here. I take it you've never been in a car before" said Inu-yasha. "nuh-uh, I saw them from the orphanage windows a lot, but I've never been in one" said serenity. Inu-yasha nodded and made a turn to get on the freeway.

Serenity saw lots of other cars and she grew excited. She fiddled with the seatbelt for a few minutes and was finally able to unbuckle it. She stood up on the seat and looked out the window. She stuck out her head and looked in the same direction the car was going. "Wow" said serenity. She could see the slightly cloudy sky, but the sun was starting to set. She remembered when she would look at the sunset and feel a tiny bit better when she was in the orphanage.

Suddenly, serenity's hand slipped and she nearly fell out of the car, but she was pretty close to doing so. Inu-yasha heard her screaming and he looked back and nearly had a heart-attack. "Serenity !!!" shouted Inu-yasha. Without thinking, he climbed in the back seat and pulled serenity back into the car by her tail.

"Serenity ! Don't ever do that again !!" yelled Inu-yasha. "Truck" said serenity. "Don't change the subject ! What you did was very dangerous !" scolded Inu-yasha. "Truck !!!" shouted serenity as she pointed forward. Inu-yasha looked ahead and saw that they were about to crash into a gasoline truck. Inu-yasha quickly got back into the drivers seat and took hold of the steering wheel again and made a sharp turn, making serenity roll in her seat to the other side of the car.

"Oww !!!" cried serenity. Inu-yasha missed hitting the truck just in time. "Oh man...that was too close..." said Inu-yasha. Serenity sat up and noticed Inu-yasha glaring at her through the rearview mirror. "Ahh !! Im sorry !! Very very sorry, please don't hit me !!" cried serenity. "Im not gonna hit you little one, just be prepared for a little talk once we get to the hospital" said Inu-yasha. Serenity sat very still and was shivering, she didn't like the feeling of being in trouble, not one bit.

(In the hospital parking lot)

"Man there are lots of people here, I can't find I place to park" said Inu-yasha. "Over there !" said serenity as she pointed to a parking place that was vacant. Inu-yasha quickly parked in the spot and took the keys out of the ignition. "Well, let's go see the doctor person !" said serenity as she tried to get out of the car. "Hold it !" said Inu-yasha. Serenity sat back down and lowered her head. Inu-yasha got out of the drivers seat of the car and got into the back seat with serenity.

"I know you've never been in a car before, but what you did was very dangerous" said Inu-yasha. "Im sorry...I didn't know, I was looking at the pretty sunset" said serenity. "you realize you could've fallen out of the car and gotten really hurt, I don't want that to happen to you, I love you too much to lose you" said Inu-yasha.

Serenity looked at Inu-yasha, her eyes got teary and she tried to smile, but it still hurt when she did. Inu-yasha held serenity close to him and stroked her hair gently. "I love you to...father" said serenity in a tiny voice. "You can call me Inu-yasha if your not comfortable calling me father" said Inu-yasha. "Ok" said serenity. "Now let's go see the doctor" said Inu-yasha. Inu-yasha got out of the car with serenity and walked into the hospital after putting the alarm on the car.

(In the waiting room)

"Why aren't we seeing the doctor person ?" asked serenity. "We have to wait, we didn't have an appointment" said Inu-yasha. Serenity looked around the waiting room, they were the only ones there surprisingly. "Bored ?" asked Inu-yasha. "Uh-huh" said serenity. "Want to read a book ?" asked Inu-yasha. "Read ? I did that in the orphanage" said serenity. "Oh really ?" asked Inu-yasha. "Yes" said serenity.

Serenity walked around the room and saw a table that had many books on it. Serenity got a book from the table and sat in a chair by herself and read the book to herself. Inu-yasha watched her, he noticed serenity was reading a book that would normally make people laugh, but she wasn't even smiling.

"Serenity, the doctor will see you now" said the nurse. Serenity got up and went over to the nurse, Inu-yasha followed her. "You sure it wont hurt ?" asked serenity. "It wont, im sure of it" said Inu-yasha. The nurse took serenity and Inu-yasha to another room with an examining table it in, also a counter and another chair.

"The doctor will see you shortly, just wait in here" said the nurse as she left Inu-yasha and serenity in the room. Inu-yasha set serenity on the examining table and then sat down in the chair near it. Serenity began looking around the room, there were lots of things she had never seen before, plus the light in that room was very bright.

The door opened and Serenity saw the doctor come in. she was a very attractive woman with long black hair, ice blue eyes and was wearing her mandatory doctors coat. "Hello there, im Dr. Higurashi, but you may call me Kagome" said the doctor. "h-hello" said serenity nervously.

"Aww, I love your little dog-ears !" said Kagome as she pulled them a bit. "That kinda hurts" said serenity. "Oh, im sorry" said Kagome. "Hi, im Serenity's father, call me Inu-yasha" said Inu-yasha as he stood up. "Nice to meet you, you have cute ears just like your daughter as well" said Kagome. Inu-yasha grinned a bit at Kagome's words. "So, lets see what the matter with you" said Kagome. Serenity gulped.
