CHAPTER 4
Inuyasha watched as his father conversed with the doctor about his step-brother's condition . He could only hear snippets of the conversation and could hardly understand the doctor's words but he could clearly make out the gravity of the situation from the lines of worry etched on his parents face . Inuyasha had never seen his father this broken . He and Sesshomaru had never been close infact they had always fought each other ever since...well ! ever since he could remember . But seeing him lying in the hospital bed fighting for his life had caused something to stir within his heart that he never thought he would feel for Sesshomaru of all people . Worry , that's what he had felt, extreme worry as laid his eyes on his brother's battered body. He had to wake up . Dammit ,didn't he wanna fight ?.
Inutaisho's mind was in a haze . The doctor in charge of Sesshomaru...some Dr.Allison had left sometime ago. What had he said ? About 48 hrs. ...God! now 48 hrs seemed like 48 years to him . A hand was placed on his shoulder ... Izayoi . But right now all he needed was to see his son awake .
"I am sure , he would be all right, dear , Don't worry!" Izayoi said in a reassuring tone .
"I know he will be fine , he has to be..." Inutaisho said more to himself than to Izayoi .
"But there is nothing we can do except wait and pray ! Can we ?
"No...No...we cannot " there was nothing else to do...
Dr . Allison pushed open the glass doors of the ER changing into his sterilized coat and mask . These precautions had to be taken owing to the severe condition of the patients in the room . An infection had to be avoided at all costs . Catching sight of Kagura, he hurried towards her .
"Here are the plates, Sir " Kagura said promptly handing over the CT and MR reports .
Just as he had feared...the spine fractures were really beyond repair but may be , just may be if the patient and his family are willing they could operate . But now there was nothing much to do except wait for the patient to gain consciousness.
At last she could rest a bit . God ! her head felt like lead . Kagura laid her head against the cushioned armrest of the settee that lay at one corner of the ER enjoying the silence that filled the room except for the incessant beepings of the many machines at work keeping track of the patients condition and ocassional swishing of the glass doors as the nurses entered to check on the patient . Kagura closed her eyes . Framing in her mind's eye all the things she had done...first off she had fitted the brace so that will prevent furthur damage to the spine...then she had injected anti-thrombtic drug Intra-venously as Dr.Allison had instructed , that should work towards unplugging the blood clot in his brain...plastered the hand ...painkillers...she ticked them off mentally . Now just to moniter his condition . It seemed stable so far and ...
Kagura was cut off from her thoughts as a voice broke in .
"Hey ! dozing off ?"
Kagura opened her eyes to find Touya smirking down at her holding out a steaming cup of what she presumed was coffee .
She smiled in reply taking histhe coffee from his outstretched hand. "Thanks a ton ! I really needed it ".
"Well you sure look like it . So , what's with him " he said gesturing towards the unconscious Sesshomaru .
"Brain haemorrhage , right hand fracture , bruised ribs and multiple spine fracture " finished Kagura taking asound sip from her coffee .
"Whoa ! quite a list . When will he come around ?"
Kagura glanced down at her watch "Seven to eight hours more I suppose ,if everything is okay "
"Well then arn't you going home , your shift is nearly over "Touya stood up ready to leave .
"No , I think I'll bunk in here tonight and keep a watch over Mr . Speed here"Kagura replied her passed over the ECG machine checking the heart rate.
"Good for you , Nice name and by the way he's a pretty good racer with a large fan following which consists mainly of girls . Did you know that ?"Touya said , his trademark smirk in place.
Kagura knew Touya was joking but still she felt a little hot ( A/N:Ahem ! coughcough )."Sorry ,I had just gone through his file . I really don't need to research on him cause I'm not doing a thesisand why exactly are you telling me all this ?"
"Thought you might be interested "he said .
"Yeah right !Now cut the crap and get going ".
"Chill...Kagura, anyway see you tomorrow then Bye!"
"Bye ! " Kagura said tiredly before flopping back on the settee . It was going to be long night...
"Dr.Kaze , Dr.Kaze "
Kagura senses caught up as she hurriedly woke up to find a nurse bending over her .
Anxiety was evident in her voices as she asked "Is everything allright Nurse ?"
"Yes Dr. I think he is gaining consciousness "
A/N: Oh God!My stupid writer's block . I hope this is not too awful or boring . I tried my best and couldn't wait to get over my block as I was getting desperate to update so here goes . Do bear with me Dear readers !and leave a review please ! Most importantly I Need A Beta !
