Chapter Eight
He love's me. He love's me not.
Inuyasha and Yagami were walking down the hallway to the hotspring baths. Inuyasha and Yagami had gotten to be better friends, dispite the fact that they are both viying for Mia's effections. Inuyasha stopped before they entered the springs. "What's wrong Inuyasha?" asked Yagami. He looked at what Inuyasha was starring at, it was a sign that read.
Co-ed Hot Springs.
Hours: 7am to 11pm Please wipe your feet.
Thank you!
"What? Are you not used to Co-ed? Everyone in there is wearing a bathing suit, and besides we reserved this one." said Yagami. Inuyasha and Yagami heard Mia and Seira laughing inside the hot springs. They were talking about Inuyasha, But they couldn't exactly hear what they were saying.
Yagami took a deep breath and walked inside, Inuyasha followed. "Hi Guys! We were wondering when you two would show up..." said Mia. Inuyasha looked at Mia, she was wearing a two piece pink suit. "Uh...Hi." Inuyasha said weakly. Inuyasha and Yagami got into the springs. "Inuyasha? Come sit over here next to me!" Mia motioned him over to her. Inuyasha complied. Seria looked up at the sky as she leaned back. "Wow...it's getting dark already, look you guys the sun is setting." said Seria. Several minutes passed as the sun set and Inuyasha began to change. Mia watched him in shock as the changes occurred. Inuyasha's hair was changing slowly from silver to black and his eye's were shifting in color as well. Inuyasha just sat there as this all happened, unaware at all that it was. Mia and the others were dumbstruck by this, Inuyasha was human. Mia tapped him on the shoulder and Inuyasha turned around.
"What is it?" asked Inuyasha. Mia touched the top of his head, to see where his ears had gone, she moved his hair to see human ears. "I-Inuyasha...? Is that you!?" Inuyasha stared at them.
"What are talking about?" ask Inuyasha. Mia took his hand and placed it on his head. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"
"Inuyasha calm down!!" Mia and the other's were trying to console a panicking Inuyasha. "WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO MY EARS!!??" Mia and the other's finally calmed Inuyasha down. Mia looked at Inuyasha closely. "Why...how did...this happen...?" Mia and Inuyasha stared at eachother, neither of them knew what was going on. "Inuyasha?" They turned to see Yagami. "Try and think very hard...has this ever happened before?" asked Yagami. Inuyasha thought hard, he couldn't recall. His began to sear in pain when a flash Image appeared, it was a image of the moonless sky. Inuyasha surrpressed the pain. "The new moon..." Inuyasha mumbled. Mia looked at him. "The new moon? Do you mean this happened cause there's a new moon?" Inuyasha nodded without thinking. "Like a werewolf on a full moon! That works doesn't it? Werewolf's are humans who turn into wolves by the full moon, and you are a demon who turns human by the NEW moon. Wow this is so exiting!" Seria ranted. Mia and the other's stared at her.
Inuyasha looked at his reflection in the water, he didn't feel any diffeant besides the fact that he felt a little weaker now, but other then that he was still himself. An hour or two past, Mia and Inuyasha were now alone. Yagami and Seira were tired and wanted to go to bed. Inuyasha still had black hair and was actually wondering when it would go away.
"Inuyasha....I heard what you guy's were saying, you know in the cab..." said Mia. Inuyasha flinched. "I was actually thinking about that too, about what you would do...if you found out that you had someone else you loved. Then I thought, that if it happens it happens. That's the risk you take when you fall in love with someone who has memory problems right? So you know, whatever happens, I don't want any regrets. I wont have any regrets. What about you?" Inuyasha couldn't answer, after all, he wasn't sure how he would feel once he was himself again. Mia laughed. "Hahahaha....oh I'm sorry. It was stupid of me to ask you that. Of course you'll have regrets...but I just want you to know, that I wont. So when you do get your memorys back, you wont have to feel guilty about me. Don't you dare." Mia grabbed Inuyasha hand and held it tightley in her's. "I'll just be happy to have met you, and to have had the oppurtunity to love you. You know me. I'm like a cat, I always land on my feet!"
Inuyasha stared at her, he wasn't sure how to feel. Mia was complety honest and happy all the time. She always said what she was thinking and feeling at the time. He couldn't do that. He couldn't be honest with her, because he didn't know everything himself. Inuyasha and Mia both walked silently back to their rooms and went to bed.
Back at mia's house. A day after the trip.
Mia sighed as she flopped herself on her couch. Inuyasha sat next to her. "Man what a trip! It was exhausting...but fun. Remember when you practically destroyed the place just because Yagami beat you at table tennis? Hahaha! That was so funny! I'm just glad Yagami took the blame and paid the bill instead of me." Mia smiled. Inuyasha looked at her. He didn't want to leave her, he hoped that once his memory was back that he would not have anything so important that he would have to leave. "It's to bad Yagami's friend...um...Kagome couldn't come. I would have liked to actually meet her." said Mia. Inuyasha flinched. His head didn't burn, nothing was happening at the mention of her name anymore. He sat back on the couch. "That girl...doesn't sound like anything speacil..." said Inuyasha. Mia Sat down next to him. "Hey, you want to go out to eat tonight? Yeah we should!" Mia stood up and pulled Inuyasha with her.
"Where?" Inuyasha asked. Mia smiled and grabbed his hat off the coat rack. "Um...well how about that cute chinese restarount across from the market! I love that place!." Mia handed Inuyasha his hat and grabbed her coat. "Lets go!" Inuyasha smiled and followed her out the door.
Meanwhile.
Kagome and the others were sitting against the well. Miroku spoke up. "The only problem is, if Inuyasha was transported to your time kagome, we still don't know where he would be." Kagome smiled.
"But at least we have a clue now! I'll think of some ways to look for him without cuaseing a panic. And if I walk around town with the sword, I'm bound to feel some pulsatiuons sooner or later." She got up and grabbed her bag. "So I should getting going. Can't waste anymore time." The others got up as well. Sango handed Kagome the tetsigua. "Bring him back Kagome. And come back soon." said Sango softly. Kagome nodded in reply, gripping the sword. She waved to everyone and jumped into the well.
Hold on Inuyasha, I'm coming.
Meanwhile...
Inuyasha and Mia were walking out of the restarount. "Man that was good!" Mia said as she put her coat on as they walked out of the biulding. "What should we do now Inuyasha?" Inuyasha looked back at her. He pointed to the store across the street.
"Can we get some snacks?" asked Inuyasha. Mia laughed. "Man! Your still hungry? If you keep this up everyday your going to eat me out of house and home." Mia sighed. "Go ahead. But no chocolate!" Inuyasha stuck out his hand and Mia handed him her bag. He ran into the store. Mia began to follow him when two men stepped in front of her.
"Wha....um exuse me." She tried step to the side. They move in front of her again. They smiled. "Hey, Can I get by here?" asked Mia as she steped back.
"I don't think so miss." One of the men said. His voice was low. She looked over the guys shoulder to try and see Inuyasha, she couldn't see him. She panicked and tried to run. One of the men grabbed her arm and shoved her hard into the alley. She looked to her side and remembered that Inuyasha had her bag. The two men came close to her, one of them grabbed her arm and pulled out a gun from his pocket. Mia flinched as he ran put it up to her head.
"Now just be a good girl and we wont hurt you..." The man touched her cheek and mia jumped kneeing him in the crouch. The man yelled and lost his grip on her. The other man pulled out a knife and slashed her arm as she tried to escape.
"Ah!" Mia yelled as the other man grasped her head and shoved her down hard, pressing her head against the pavment. He put the knife to her throat. "I like em' fisty but if you make one more wrong move I'll slit your throat." His voice was sickening. Mia tried to lift herself up but the mans hold on her was to strong. She closed her eyes and tried again, she pushed and her body lifted easier. She looked up to see Inuyasha. He was pulling the man up by his collar. The man tried to cut him, but Inuyasha threw him before he could swing the knife. The man hit the wall hard and blood slid with him to the floor. He was unconsious now. Inuyasha kneeled down to Mia.
"Are you okay?" asked Inuyasha in concern. Mia nodded. Inuyasha looked down at her arm. The blood from the slash was streaming down her arm, staining her shirt as it trailed down to her finger tips dripping on the floor. She smiled at Inuyasha as she got up. Inuyasha grabbed her unscealthed arm to help her. Mia saw the other man walking slowly closer to them. He held the gun up ready to fire.
"Inuyasha!" Mia screamed as the gun went off. To Mia, everything seemed to go in slow motion as Inuyasha pushed her to the floor, to keep her out of the line of fire. She watched as Inuyasha fell to his knees as the bullet went through his heart. The blood covered her chest and neck as it was scattered by the force of the bullet. The man moved the gun and aimed it at Mia. Inuyasha noticed and covered her. The man shot him again and again as Mia screamed. "Inuyasha!! Move! Stop it!! Your gonna kill yourself!!!" Mia looked at Inuyasha's face. Something was wrong. His eyes glew blood red, and purple streaks streamed his face. Blood dripped from Inuyasha face onto Mia's. Tears streamed down her face as she reached up to touch his face. She heard a shallow growl and her hand stopped. Inuyasha rose from her and appoarched the man with the gun.
"What!? You should be dead!!" The man yelled as he shot the gun again. The bullet grazed Inuyasha's shoulder but he kept walking towards him. Mia stared at Inuyasha. Something was wrong, this wasn't Inuyasha. He ran up qiuckly to the man and grabbedd his neck, squeezing it tighter and tighter. Mias eyes widened. Inuyasha was going to kill him. The man was screaming as tears escaped his eyes, pleading for his life. "Inuyasha!! What are you doing!? Your going to kill him!!" Mia screamed. Inuyasha didn't look at her. He laughed and snapped the mans neck without a second thought. Mia rose to her feet slowly.
"Why...Inuyasha...are you okay...? You've been hurt..." Mia spoke softly, she was frightned. Inuyasha saw the blood streaming from her wound and he laughed again. Mia smiled weakly. "Inuyasha? Whats wrong with you?" She backed up without thinking. Inuyasha smile was devient and sinister now. Her breathing was harder now and her heart beat was faster. She stepped closer to Inuyasha. "Inuyasha! Please! Your scaring me...please...your not yourself...." Mia reached to his arm to grasp it. Inuyasha flinched and raised his arm and qiuckly slashed her chest. Laughing evily all the while. Her vision blurred, the pain was to much. She passed out. Inuyasha stared at her lying motionless on the floor. He saw her blood pour to his feet. As he looked down at her wounded body his eyes returned to normal. He gasped when he returned to normal.
"Mia!! What happ-" He stooped. Noticeing his finger tips that were covered in blood. He looked from his blood stained hands to Mia. "Did I....?" When he looked at Mia again he knew he didn't have time to wonder, he just had to get her some help. He ripped off the bottom of his shirt and slowly rolled mia to her back. He took off her blood stained and torn shirt slowly, so he wouldn't hurt her. He wrapped her wound and then picked her up. He jumped high to the roof closest to the alley. He jumped from roof top to roof top, he was looking frantically for a familar face. He jumped down to the street in the middle of a crosswalk. He ran to the sidewalk, attracting alot of attention. A woman ran up to him.
"Whats wrong with her? Here let me call an ambulance." The woman pulled a cellphone out of her purse and dialed. As the woman gave the info to the authoritys, all Inuyasha could think about was Mia, and how he might have been the one to hurt her. He snapped back to reality when the woman tapped him on the shoulder. He looked down at her. "The ambulance will be here soon. Is your friend going to be all right- Oh my god have you been shot!?" Inuyasha looked down at his chest. He noticed blood dripping from his cloths. He was surprised, He hadn't even noticed that, all he could think about was Mia now. Through the corner of his eye he saw red flashs of light from the ambulance car. Men ran out of the car and qiuckly examined Inuyasha and Mia. Inuyasha put Mia on the stretcher bed they had pulled out for her. He couldn't stand to see her like this, they had put something over her mouth and nose, they said it would help her to breath. Of course, Inuyasha knew nothing of the things they used to treat her, but he knew they were helping her. A man came up to Inuyasha and examined him. They lifted his shirt, but there was nothing there now but some minor scratchs. So they figured the blood on him, must have come from carrying the girl. Even so, they told him to go to the hospital with the girl and Inuyasha complied.
As Inuyasha and Mia were headed to the hospital in the back of the emergency car, Inuyasha stared at Mia as she sweated from the heat of her pain. His hands were still satined with blood.
"Ahh..." Mia woke slowly and with difficulty. Inuyasha jumped when he saw her eyes open slowly. He could see the pain in her eyes and it hurt him as well. She turned her head slowly to look at him. He didn't know what to say to her, was there anything he could say? It hurt him even more when she smiled weakly at him.
"Inuyasha...Your back..." Her smile was truly happy before she fainted from the pain again. Inuyasha flinched and yelled to her. "Mia! Wake up!! come on!! What do you mean back!? Mia!" Inuyasha slammed his fist against the wall of the car. His eyes were shut tight. He just kept thinking. Why were these things happening without him knowing it? Did he hurt Mia? What did she mean by back? Where did he go? Inuyasha at Mia again. At least she was still alive, her wounds were bandaged properly by the ambulance people, he just hoped that she would be all right.
At the hospital in the waiting room the next day.
Inuyasha was sitting in the waiting room, after being examined and bandaged, he was told to wait here for the doctor to report on Mia's condition. Inuyasha was gratful that they didn't want to examine his head, he didn't know how he would explain the ears that weren't where they were supposed to be. He sat there forever it seemed, before the doctor came out. Inuyasha stood up. "So? Whats up? Is she all right!?" asked Inuyasha in a frenzy. The doctor was an man probably in his fifties, his hair was brown with gray streaks coating his head. His face had light wrinkles and his smile was weak but genuiune.
"Ms. Hikaru is going to be fine. She lost alot of blood and we fear she may have some scars after recovery but other then that there is no more bad news. Now I do need to ask, were you two attacked by dogs?" Inuyasha flinched. "I was pretty certain when I saw her wounds but now I'm not so sure what they were caused by..." Inuyasha looked down.
"I'm not sure...it happened so fast..." Inuyasha was telling the truth, he himself wasn't sure how it exactly happened, but now, he had a pretty good idea. The doctor touched his shoulder.
"I'm sorry, it's all right. Well, Ms. Hikaru will have to stay here awhile...and she should refrain from any strainious activity for some time. We have told her this already, but we thought it would be best to tell you as well. You are her brother right?" asked the doctor. Inuyasha looked up at the doctor.
"Well actually I'm-" Inuyasha was cut off when he heard Yagami.
"Inuyasha!" Yagami yelled as he left the elevator. "What happened!?" He ran to Inuyasha's side. "Where's Mia?" Inuyasha looked at him in surprise.
"What are you doing here?" asked Inuyasha.
"I'm one of Mia's emergency contacts. Her aunt is on her way as well, she should be here soon." said Yagami. Inuyasha turned away from Yagami's eye sight. He had done exactly what Yagami warned him about. He had hurt Mia, with his own hands. He had really hurt her. Yagami had turned to talk to the doctor. Inuyasha could barely hear them over his own thoughts, he didn't understand what had happened. How did this happen?
He came back to reality when Yagami sat down next to him on the couch. He noticed that the doctor was leaving. He felt Yagami tap him on the shoulder. He turned to face him. "So dogs huh? I always kinda figured you could handle dogs, Mia too." Inuyasha flinched. Yagami wasn't looking at him as he spoke. "Aparntley, you were just fine...but Mia..." Inuyasha already knew where he was going with this. "What happened Inuyasha? What really happened?" Yagami turned to look at him now. Inuyasha was dumb struck. What could he say? He didn't know what happened. He had an idea of what had happened, but he was to afraid to admit it to himself let alone Yagami.
"You did it didn't you!!?" Yagami yelled as he rose from his seat. Inuyasha rose too.
"No! I don't know what happened! I would never..." Inuyasha trailed off. Mia was leaning on her room doorway. She was in a hospital gown and hooked to some pole. Her face was flushed and her hair was down. "Mia!" Inuyasha yelled as he ran to her. Yagami followed. "You should be in bed." Mia looked at his face. She stared hard, as she reached her hand up to touch his face. Inuyasha felt her hand touch his cheek, he smiled and grabbed her hand. She smiled as tears threatened to escape her eyes. She hugged Inuyasha tightley. Inuyasha almost lost his balance but stood firm.
"It's you...Inuyasha!" Mia held on tighter as she hid her face into his chest. Inuyasha stroked her hair gently. "I'm sorry." Inuyasha whispered softly. Mia pulled away from the embrace and looked at him again. "I'm glad..." She said weakly as she lost her balance. Her legs were weak. Inuyasha grabbed her before she hit the floor. He and Yagami helped her to her bed. She sat up with her feet hanging off the side.
"I'll go get you something to eat Mia. You need your strength, you've lost alot of blood." said Yagami. Mia nodded. Yagami left. Inuyasha was sitting in a chair next to her bed. It was silent for awhile.
"It must be hard..." said Mia suddenly. Inuyasha jumped at her voice. He looked at her. Her face was down. Her voice was soft and weak. "To be something as complex as a demon...espeacilly when you don't rememeber anything. There must be so many things you dont understand...and I bet it hurts." Inuyasha looked at her. He couldn't see her eyes but he saw tears drop to the floor. "I mean...to have all these things happen to you, and you don't know why they are happening...first it was the human thing...and now...t-this. I bet it's fustrating..." Mia stopped. Inuyasha got up and grabbed her shoulders.
"Mia what do you mean!? What happened last night?" Inuyasha asked. Mia looked up at him. There were no more tears, but her eyes still sparkled from the tears earlier. She touched his face again, trailing her fingers where the purple marks had been.
"You changed again...Inuyasha. I don't know why, or how...but you weren't yourself." Inuyasha jumped back from her. "Last night...that was the first time...you ever really looked like a demon to me..." Inuyasha stared at her wide eyed. He saw a flash in his head. A flash memory of Mia lying on the floor covered in blood.
"Then...it was me. I hurt you...I'm the reason your here." Inuyasha said softly. Mia gasped and ran up to him. She grabbed Inuyasha's arm for balance.
"No!" Mia yelled. Inuyasha looked down at her. She was scared. "No Inuyasha! It wasn't you! You weren't yourself. I don't blame you! So you shouldn't yourself! I know you would never do that!!" She let him go and stepped back and spoke as she looked at the floor. Her voice was soft and sad. "Inuyasha...your a half demon right? There's probably alot of secrets and unexplained things that come along with that. I understand that...and I still want to be with you...because the you that was there last night...that wasn't you, you wouldn't do that. I know you." Inuyasha turned around, showing his back to her.
"Yeah well it looks like you didn't know me as well as you thought. I hurt you last night...I'm just a demon...maybe that was the real me. Maybe when I get my memory back, that's what I'll become ag-" Inuyasha was stopped when Mia grabbed his shirt tightley. He did not turn around, he looked back at her. Her face was still stareing at the floor.
"No! Stop it! Inuyasha your being an idiot!! Don't ever doubt who you are...I don't want you to doubt that your a good person. Inuyasha...if you were really that kind of person, would you be standing here...worrying about me like you are? Wouldn't you have just killed me last night? Would you be beating yourself up about it like this!!?" Inuyasha jumped. Mia's hand was shaking as it grasped Inuyasha's shirt. He gently removed her hand and turned around. He was still holding her hand, and he could see her trembling now. "I just...I just wish there was something I could do to convince you...I wish you could see yourself...the way that I see you. Inuyasha...your a good person...don't ever think anything else. Please...I hate to see you so broken up like this." Mia looked up at him. Her face was wet and her eyes were red. Inuyasha sighed and helped her back to her bed. "I'm sorry. I guess I went a little overboard there..." Mia said, laughing weakly.
Inuyasha sat next to her on the bed. He grabbed her shoulder and brought her into an embrace. She smiled and rested her head on his chest. He touched her shoulder where the man had cut her. Inuyasha kissed her shoulder where the cut was. Mia gasped slightley, surprised by the sudden affection. Inuyasha stopped and looked up at her. Their eyes met for a moment, then Inuyasha kissed her neck softly. Mia touched Inuyasha's face, lifting his face to hers. Inuyasha held the back of her head and pushed her into him as his lips claimed hers. Ahem! Mia and Inuyasha jumped apart in surprise and looked over. Yagami was standing at the door way holding a tray. Mia and Inuyasha's faces were glowing scarlet red.
"Yagami!! Have you ever heard of knocking!?" Inuyasha yelled. Yagami gave the tray to the dumbstruck Mia. He tapped her neck where Inuyasha had kissed her. Mia looked at it. Inuyasha had left a mark. She gasped and slapped her hand over it.
"There was a line at the cafitertia and I come back to find you two like this!?" Yagami said shaking with rage. He looked Inuyasha's way. Inuyasha huffed and turned away angriley. Mostly because Yagami interupted. Yagami looked at Mia. She turned away flustered and stuffed her face so she wouldn't have to talk. Mia knew Yagami was jealous, but what could she do? She had already told him before that she just wanted to be friends.
"And besides! Isn't Inuyasha the one that hurt you!?" Inuyasha jumped. "Why are you so attached to this guy Mia!? What is it about Inuyasha? What!? Do you think that you have to take care of him cause he lost his memory or what!?" Mia looked at Yagami. "Once he gets his memory back you know he's going to leave you! That bastard will probably laugh about it to!" Inuyasha was angry now.
"That's not gonna happen! What do you know about it!? If you weren't so jealous all the time maybe you could find some other girl who actually has some interest in you! It's not my fault you've got no appeal to her so go take it out on someone else!" Inuyasha yelled.
"What are you talking about!? If you hadn't followed Mia home like some stray dog with his tail between his legs, She wouldn't be in the hospital now!" Mia gasped.
"Yagami!" Mia yelled
"No Mia! I have to say this! You hurt Mia last night I know you did! How do you know you wont hurt her again!? Your nothing more than a monster!" Everyone was silent after Yagmi finished. Inuyasha didn't move or say anything. Yagami was standing in the middle of the room, silent as well. They heard Mia put her tray down on the bed softly and rose to her feet silently. She walked up to Yagami. They stood there for a moment.
"Mia..." Yagami began, but before he could say his peace he felt a Mia's hand strike his face. His cheek felt hot and stung from the force of it. He looked at her. She was angry.
"Your wrong Yagami! Inuyasha is not a monster! Stop talking for me!! Like you know exactly whats best for me. Like You think you know what I should say! Like I'm a little girl who can't make her own decisions!! You've been doing that ever since Inuyasha showed up! I'm sorry. But I've been silent for too long now, and you just stepped over the line! Don't you ever talk about any of my friends like that!" Mia finished. Yagami stood there in shock. "Yagami, don't get me wrong...I'm grateful for you always being there for me. But that doesn't mean you can run my life and choose who I can and can not hang out with!" Yagami looked away from her. He glared at Inuyasha and walked out of the room. "Yagami! Wait do-" Mia tried to stop him, but he was gone.
Inuyasha walked over next to Mia and put his hand on her shoulder. "I'm sorry Yagami...please understand." Inuyasha heard Mia whisper softly to herself.
The doctor stepped into the room. Mia and Inuyasha looked up. "Ms. Hikaru. Your aunt is here and we would like to start the blood tranfusion." Mia pushed Inuyasha in front of her fast. Inuyasha and the doctor were surprised. Mia was hiding behind Inuyasha, holding onto his shirt.
"No! Thats okay. I have enough blood. Thank you!" Mia said nervously. Inuyasha looked behind him. The doctor smiled.
"Mia? Whats wrong?" Inuyasha asked. Mia pointed at the doctors pocket. Inuyasha looked over and saw a needle in his pocket.
"I hate shots..." Mia said nervously. Inuyasha laughed. "Hey! Don't laugh!" Inuyasha bent down and whispered in her ear.
"Your not scared of demons but your scared of needles? Coward." Inuyasha whispered. Mia huffed angrily and walked over to the doctor. She was obvisouly nervous. She stammered out the door with the doctor and out of sight. Inuyasha was about to leave when he saw Mia running by the door way again, she was running from the nurse's.
"Noo!! Get away from me!" He heard Mia scream in the distance. As she ran the other way.
"Ow! She bit me!" Inuyasha heard a nurse yell.
"Shes a kicker! Ow!" Another nurse yelled.
"We need some help over here!" Another nurse yelled. Inuyasha sighed.
"Ow! Stop it n-got her!"
He saw Mia being dragged back the other way by four other nurses. Inuyasha walked out and headed to the elevator. "Inuyasha! Don't you leave!! I'll be out soon! I want you to be here to take me home! If your not..." Her voice trailed off as she was being dragged away in the distance. Inuyasha laughed. He sighed again and sat down. He yawned, remembering he hadn't gotten any sleep. He drifted slowly into sleep.
A few hours later.
Inuyasha felt a tapping on his shoulder. He opened his eyes slowly and saw Mia hovering above him. "Inuyasha, come on get up, we can go home now." Mia smiled sweetly at him as he rubbed his eyes out of sleep.
"Are you sure your up to going home already? I mean it just happened last night." Inuyasha did want her to come home with him, but he didn't want her to go if she wasn't ready. Mia smiled and pounded on her chest.
"No prob! I'm fine!" Mia stood there for a minute, silent.
"Are you sure?" Inuyasha tapped her wound. Mia smacked his hand.
"Don't touch it, it really hurts!!" Mia yelled. Inuyasha saw a small blood satin coming through her hospital gown. Inuyasha looked up at her. She flinched a little and put her hand over her wound. "I'm fine...But I really want to go home...please."
"All right, thats fine. I'm just glad your not angry with me. But You have to promise to take it easy." Inuyasha said. Mia smiled.
Inuyasha nodded, and Mia went into the bathroom. Inuyasha was left in the room alone. He was still thinking about what had happened. About how he had hurt Mia, how he couldn't even remember any of it. Inuyasha thought of yagami and everything he said to Mia. He knew it was true, for hurting Mia, he was a monster.
A/N: Sniff Such a sad chapter! Poor Inuyasha!! Okay, so this chapter ran a little long but I couldn't find a good stopping point. So what did you all think!? I really liked this chapter. I know it didn't have any of Kagome or Kouga, but I couldn't find the right place to fit them in. I was so into the whole Inuyasha and Mia thing you know? Anyway, please review and tell me what you thought. My friends all love Mia!! I do too! I made her everything I wanted Kagome to be. I never really liked Kagome... Hides from the mob of Kagome fans. She just always really pissed me off. Anywho, gtg so, please review and I'll see you later!
Chapter Eight
He love's me. He love's me not.
Inuyasha and Yagami were walking down the hallway to the hotspring baths. Inuyasha and Yagami had gotten to be better friends, dispite the fact that they are both viying for Mia's effections. Inuyasha stopped before they entered the springs. "What's wrong Inuyasha?" asked Yagami. He looked at what Inuyasha was starring at, it was a sign that read.
Co-ed Hot Springs.
Hours: 7am to 11pm Please wipe your feet.
Thank you!
"What? Are you not used to Co-ed? Everyone in there is wearing a bathing suit, and besides we reserved this one." said Yagami. Inuyasha and Yagami heard Mia and Seira laughing inside the hot springs. They were talking about Inuyasha, But they couldn't exactly hear what they were saying.
Yagami took a deep breath and walked inside, Inuyasha followed. "Hi Guys! We were wondering when you two would show up..." said Mia. Inuyasha looked at Mia, she was wearing a two piece pink suit. "Uh...Hi." Inuyasha said weakly. Inuyasha and Yagami got into the springs. "Inuyasha? Come sit over here next to me!" Mia motioned him over to her. Inuyasha complied. Seria looked up at the sky as she leaned back. "Wow...it's getting dark already, look you guys the sun is setting." said Seria. Several minutes passed as the sun set and Inuyasha began to change. Mia watched him in shock as the changes occurred. Inuyasha's hair was changing slowly from silver to black and his eye's were shifting in color as well. Inuyasha just sat there as this all happened, unaware at all that it was. Mia and the others were dumbstruck by this, Inuyasha was human. Mia tapped him on the shoulder and Inuyasha turned around.
"What is it?" asked Inuyasha. Mia touched the top of his head, to see where his ears had gone, she moved his hair to see human ears. "I-Inuyasha...? Is that you!?" Inuyasha stared at them.
"What are talking about?" ask Inuyasha. Mia took his hand and placed it on his head. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!"
"Inuyasha calm down!!" Mia and the other's were trying to console a panicking Inuyasha. "WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO MY EARS!!??" Mia and the other's finally calmed Inuyasha down. Mia looked at Inuyasha closely. "Why...how did...this happen...?" Mia and Inuyasha stared at eachother, neither of them knew what was going on. "Inuyasha?" They turned to see Yagami. "Try and think very hard...has this ever happened before?" asked Yagami. Inuyasha thought hard, he couldn't recall. His began to sear in pain when a flash Image appeared, it was a image of the moonless sky. Inuyasha surrpressed the pain. "The new moon..." Inuyasha mumbled. Mia looked at him. "The new moon? Do you mean this happened cause there's a new moon?" Inuyasha nodded without thinking. "Like a werewolf on a full moon! That works doesn't it? Werewolf's are humans who turn into wolves by the full moon, and you are a demon who turns human by the NEW moon. Wow this is so exiting!" Seria ranted. Mia and the other's stared at her.
Inuyasha looked at his reflection in the water, he didn't feel any diffeant besides the fact that he felt a little weaker now, but other then that he was still himself. An hour or two past, Mia and Inuyasha were now alone. Yagami and Seira were tired and wanted to go to bed. Inuyasha still had black hair and was actually wondering when it would go away.
"Inuyasha....I heard what you guy's were saying, you know in the cab..." said Mia. Inuyasha flinched. "I was actually thinking about that too, about what you would do...if you found out that you had someone else you loved. Then I thought, that if it happens it happens. That's the risk you take when you fall in love with someone who has memory problems right? So you know, whatever happens, I don't want any regrets. I wont have any regrets. What about you?" Inuyasha couldn't answer, after all, he wasn't sure how he would feel once he was himself again. Mia laughed. "Hahahaha....oh I'm sorry. It was stupid of me to ask you that. Of course you'll have regrets...but I just want you to know, that I wont. So when you do get your memorys back, you wont have to feel guilty about me. Don't you dare." Mia grabbed Inuyasha hand and held it tightley in her's. "I'll just be happy to have met you, and to have had the oppurtunity to love you. You know me. I'm like a cat, I always land on my feet!"
Inuyasha stared at her, he wasn't sure how to feel. Mia was complety honest and happy all the time. She always said what she was thinking and feeling at the time. He couldn't do that. He couldn't be honest with her, because he didn't know everything himself. Inuyasha and Mia both walked silently back to their rooms and went to bed.
Back at mia's house. A day after the trip.
Mia sighed as she flopped herself on her couch. Inuyasha sat next to her. "Man what a trip! It was exhausting...but fun. Remember when you practically destroyed the place just because Yagami beat you at table tennis? Hahaha! That was so funny! I'm just glad Yagami took the blame and paid the bill instead of me." Mia smiled. Inuyasha looked at her. He didn't want to leave her, he hoped that once his memory was back that he would not have anything so important that he would have to leave. "It's to bad Yagami's friend...um...Kagome couldn't come. I would have liked to actually meet her." said Mia. Inuyasha flinched. His head didn't burn, nothing was happening at the mention of her name anymore. He sat back on the couch. "That girl...doesn't sound like anything speacil..." said Inuyasha. Mia Sat down next to him. "Hey, you want to go out to eat tonight? Yeah we should!" Mia stood up and pulled Inuyasha with her.
"Where?" Inuyasha asked. Mia smiled and grabbed his hat off the coat rack. "Um...well how about that cute chinese restarount across from the market! I love that place!." Mia handed Inuyasha his hat and grabbed her coat. "Lets go!" Inuyasha smiled and followed her out the door.
Meanwhile.
Kagome and the others were sitting against the well. Miroku spoke up. "The only problem is, if Inuyasha was transported to your time kagome, we still don't know where he would be." Kagome smiled.
"But at least we have a clue now! I'll think of some ways to look for him without cuaseing a panic. And if I walk around town with the sword, I'm bound to feel some pulsatiuons sooner or later." She got up and grabbed her bag. "So I should getting going. Can't waste anymore time." The others got up as well. Sango handed Kagome the tetsigua. "Bring him back Kagome. And come back soon." said Sango softly. Kagome nodded in reply, gripping the sword. She waved to everyone and jumped into the well.
Hold on Inuyasha, I'm coming.
Meanwhile...
Inuyasha and Mia were walking out of the restarount. "Man that was good!" Mia said as she put her coat on as they walked out of the biulding. "What should we do now Inuyasha?" Inuyasha looked back at her. He pointed to the store across the street.
"Can we get some snacks?" asked Inuyasha. Mia laughed. "Man! Your still hungry? If you keep this up everyday your going to eat me out of house and home." Mia sighed. "Go ahead. But no chocolate!" Inuyasha stuck out his hand and Mia handed him her bag. He ran into the store. Mia began to follow him when two men stepped in front of her.
"Wha....um exuse me." She tried step to the side. They move in front of her again. They smiled. "Hey, Can I get by here?" asked Mia as she steped back.
"I don't think so miss." One of the men said. His voice was low. She looked over the guys shoulder to try and see Inuyasha, she couldn't see him. She panicked and tried to run. One of the men grabbed her arm and shoved her hard into the alley. She looked to her side and remembered that Inuyasha had her bag. The two men came close to her, one of them grabbed her arm and pulled out a gun from his pocket. Mia flinched as he ran put it up to her head.
"Now just be a good girl and we wont hurt you..." The man touched her cheek and mia jumped kneeing him in the crouch. The man yelled and lost his grip on her. The other man pulled out a knife and slashed her arm as she tried to escape.
"Ah!" Mia yelled as the other man grasped her head and shoved her down hard, pressing her head against the pavment. He put the knife to her throat. "I like em' fisty but if you make one more wrong move I'll slit your throat." His voice was sickening. Mia tried to lift herself up but the mans hold on her was to strong. She closed her eyes and tried again, she pushed and her body lifted easier. She looked up to see Inuyasha. He was pulling the man up by his collar. The man tried to cut him, but Inuyasha threw him before he could swing the knife. The man hit the wall hard and blood slid with him to the floor. He was unconsious now. Inuyasha kneeled down to Mia.
"Are you okay?" asked Inuyasha in concern. Mia nodded. Inuyasha looked down at her arm. The blood from the slash was streaming down her arm, staining her shirt as it trailed down to her finger tips dripping on the floor. She smiled at Inuyasha as she got up. Inuyasha grabbed her unscealthed arm to help her. Mia saw the other man walking slowly closer to them. He held the gun up ready to fire.
"Inuyasha!" Mia screamed as the gun went off. To Mia, everything seemed to go in slow motion as Inuyasha pushed her to the floor, to keep her out of the line of fire. She watched as Inuyasha fell to his knees as the bullet went through his heart. The blood covered her chest and neck as it was scattered by the force of the bullet. The man moved the gun and aimed it at Mia. Inuyasha noticed and covered her. The man shot him again and again as Mia screamed. "Inuyasha!! Move! Stop it!! Your gonna kill yourself!!!" Mia looked at Inuyasha's face. Something was wrong. His eyes glew blood red, and purple streaks streamed his face. Blood dripped from Inuyasha face onto Mia's. Tears streamed down her face as she reached up to touch his face. She heard a shallow growl and her hand stopped. Inuyasha rose from her and appoarched the man with the gun.
"What!? You should be dead!!" The man yelled as he shot the gun again. The bullet grazed Inuyasha's shoulder but he kept walking towards him. Mia stared at Inuyasha. Something was wrong, this wasn't Inuyasha. He ran up qiuckly to the man and grabbedd his neck, squeezing it tighter and tighter. Mias eyes widened. Inuyasha was going to kill him. The man was screaming as tears escaped his eyes, pleading for his life. "Inuyasha!! What are you doing!? Your going to kill him!!" Mia screamed. Inuyasha didn't look at her. He laughed and snapped the mans neck without a second thought. Mia rose to her feet slowly.
"Why...Inuyasha...are you okay...? You've been hurt..." Mia spoke softly, she was frightned. Inuyasha saw the blood streaming from her wound and he laughed again. Mia smiled weakly. "Inuyasha? Whats wrong with you?" She backed up without thinking. Inuyasha smile was devient and sinister now. Her breathing was harder now and her heart beat was faster. She stepped closer to Inuyasha. "Inuyasha! Please! Your scaring me...please...your not yourself...." Mia reached to his arm to grasp it. Inuyasha flinched and raised his arm and qiuckly slashed her chest. Laughing evily all the while. Her vision blurred, the pain was to much. She passed out. Inuyasha stared at her lying motionless on the floor. He saw her blood pour to his feet. As he looked down at her wounded body his eyes returned to normal. He gasped when he returned to normal.
"Mia!! What happ-" He stooped. Noticeing his finger tips that were covered in blood. He looked from his blood stained hands to Mia. "Did I....?" When he looked at Mia again he knew he didn't have time to wonder, he just had to get her some help. He ripped off the bottom of his shirt and slowly rolled mia to her back. He took off her blood stained and torn shirt slowly, so he wouldn't hurt her. He wrapped her wound and then picked her up. He jumped high to the roof closest to the alley. He jumped from roof top to roof top, he was looking frantically for a familar face. He jumped down to the street in the middle of a crosswalk. He ran to the sidewalk, attracting alot of attention. A woman ran up to him.
"Whats wrong with her? Here let me call an ambulance." The woman pulled a cellphone out of her purse and dialed. As the woman gave the info to the authoritys, all Inuyasha could think about was Mia, and how he might have been the one to hurt her. He snapped back to reality when the woman tapped him on the shoulder. He looked down at her. "The ambulance will be here soon. Is your friend going to be all right- Oh my god have you been shot!?" Inuyasha looked down at his chest. He noticed blood dripping from his cloths. He was surprised, He hadn't even noticed that, all he could think about was Mia now. Through the corner of his eye he saw red flashs of light from the ambulance car. Men ran out of the car and qiuckly examined Inuyasha and Mia. Inuyasha put Mia on the stretcher bed they had pulled out for her. He couldn't stand to see her like this, they had put something over her mouth and nose, they said it would help her to breath. Of course, Inuyasha knew nothing of the things they used to treat her, but he knew they were helping her. A man came up to Inuyasha and examined him. They lifted his shirt, but there was nothing there now but some minor scratchs. So they figured the blood on him, must have come from carrying the girl. Even so, they told him to go to the hospital with the girl and Inuyasha complied.
As Inuyasha and Mia were headed to the hospital in the back of the emergency car, Inuyasha stared at Mia as she sweated from the heat of her pain. His hands were still satined with blood.
"Ahh..." Mia woke slowly and with difficulty. Inuyasha jumped when he saw her eyes open slowly. He could see the pain in her eyes and it hurt him as well. She turned her head slowly to look at him. He didn't know what to say to her, was there anything he could say? It hurt him even more when she smiled weakly at him.
"Inuyasha...Your back..." Her smile was truly happy before she fainted from the pain again. Inuyasha flinched and yelled to her. "Mia! Wake up!! come on!! What do you mean back!? Mia!" Inuyasha slammed his fist against the wall of the car. His eyes were shut tight. He just kept thinking. Why were these things happening without him knowing it? Did he hurt Mia? What did she mean by back? Where did he go? Inuyasha at Mia again. At least she was still alive, her wounds were bandaged properly by the ambulance people, he just hoped that she would be all right.
At the hospital in the waiting room the next day.
Inuyasha was sitting in the waiting room, after being examined and bandaged, he was told to wait here for the doctor to report on Mia's condition. Inuyasha was gratful that they didn't want to examine his head, he didn't know how he would explain the ears that weren't where they were supposed to be. He sat there forever it seemed, before the doctor came out. Inuyasha stood up. "So? Whats up? Is she all right!?" asked Inuyasha in a frenzy. The doctor was an man probably in his fifties, his hair was brown with gray streaks coating his head. His face had light wrinkles and his smile was weak but genuiune.
"Ms. Hikaru is going to be fine. She lost alot of blood and we fear she may have some scars after recovery but other then that there is no more bad news. Now I do need to ask, were you two attacked by dogs?" Inuyasha flinched. "I was pretty certain when I saw her wounds but now I'm not so sure what they were caused by..." Inuyasha looked down.
"I'm not sure...it happened so fast..." Inuyasha was telling the truth, he himself wasn't sure how it exactly happened, but now, he had a pretty good idea. The doctor touched his shoulder.
"I'm sorry, it's all right. Well, Ms. Hikaru will have to stay here awhile...and she should refrain from any strainious activity for some time. We have told her this already, but we thought it would be best to tell you as well. You are her brother right?" asked the doctor. Inuyasha looked up at the doctor.
"Well actually I'm-" Inuyasha was cut off when he heard Yagami.
"Inuyasha!" Yagami yelled as he left the elevator. "What happened!?" He ran to Inuyasha's side. "Where's Mia?" Inuyasha looked at him in surprise.
"What are you doing here?" asked Inuyasha.
"I'm one of Mia's emergency contacts. Her aunt is on her way as well, she should be here soon." said Yagami. Inuyasha turned away from Yagami's eye sight. He had done exactly what Yagami warned him about. He had hurt Mia, with his own hands. He had really hurt her. Yagami had turned to talk to the doctor. Inuyasha could barely hear them over his own thoughts, he didn't understand what had happened. How did this happen?
He came back to reality when Yagami sat down next to him on the couch. He noticed that the doctor was leaving. He felt Yagami tap him on the shoulder. He turned to face him. "So dogs huh? I always kinda figured you could handle dogs, Mia too." Inuyasha flinched. Yagami wasn't looking at him as he spoke. "Aparntley, you were just fine...but Mia..." Inuyasha already knew where he was going with this. "What happened Inuyasha? What really happened?" Yagami turned to look at him now. Inuyasha was dumb struck. What could he say? He didn't know what happened. He had an idea of what had happened, but he was to afraid to admit it to himself let alone Yagami.
"You did it didn't you!!?" Yagami yelled as he rose from his seat. Inuyasha rose too.
"No! I don't know what happened! I would never..." Inuyasha trailed off. Mia was leaning on her room doorway. She was in a hospital gown and hooked to some pole. Her face was flushed and her hair was down. "Mia!" Inuyasha yelled as he ran to her. Yagami followed. "You should be in bed." Mia looked at his face. She stared hard, as she reached her hand up to touch his face. Inuyasha felt her hand touch his cheek, he smiled and grabbed her hand. She smiled as tears threatened to escape her eyes. She hugged Inuyasha tightley. Inuyasha almost lost his balance but stood firm.
"It's you...Inuyasha!" Mia held on tighter as she hid her face into his chest. Inuyasha stroked her hair gently. "I'm sorry." Inuyasha whispered softly. Mia pulled away from the embrace and looked at him again. "I'm glad..." She said weakly as she lost her balance. Her legs were weak. Inuyasha grabbed her before she hit the floor. He and Yagami helped her to her bed. She sat up with her feet hanging off the side.
"I'll go get you something to eat Mia. You need your strength, you've lost alot of blood." said Yagami. Mia nodded. Yagami left. Inuyasha was sitting in a chair next to her bed. It was silent for awhile.
"It must be hard..." said Mia suddenly. Inuyasha jumped at her voice. He looked at her. Her face was down. Her voice was soft and weak. "To be something as complex as a demon...espeacilly when you don't rememeber anything. There must be so many things you dont understand...and I bet it hurts." Inuyasha looked at her. He couldn't see her eyes but he saw tears drop to the floor. "I mean...to have all these things happen to you, and you don't know why they are happening...first it was the human thing...and now...t-this. I bet it's fustrating..." Mia stopped. Inuyasha got up and grabbed her shoulders.
"Mia what do you mean!? What happened last night?" Inuyasha asked. Mia looked up at him. There were no more tears, but her eyes still sparkled from the tears earlier. She touched his face again, trailing her fingers where the purple marks had been.
"You changed again...Inuyasha. I don't know why, or how...but you weren't yourself." Inuyasha jumped back from her. "Last night...that was the first time...you ever really looked like a demon to me..." Inuyasha stared at her wide eyed. He saw a flash in his head. A flash memory of Mia lying on the floor covered in blood.
"Then...it was me. I hurt you...I'm the reason your here." Inuyasha said softly. Mia gasped and ran up to him. She grabbed Inuyasha's arm for balance.
"No!" Mia yelled. Inuyasha looked down at her. She was scared. "No Inuyasha! It wasn't you! You weren't yourself. I don't blame you! So you shouldn't yourself! I know you would never do that!!" She let him go and stepped back and spoke as she looked at the floor. Her voice was soft and sad. "Inuyasha...your a half demon right? There's probably alot of secrets and unexplained things that come along with that. I understand that...and I still want to be with you...because the you that was there last night...that wasn't you, you wouldn't do that. I know you." Inuyasha turned around, showing his back to her.
"Yeah well it looks like you didn't know me as well as you thought. I hurt you last night...I'm just a demon...maybe that was the real me. Maybe when I get my memory back, that's what I'll become ag-" Inuyasha was stopped when Mia grabbed his shirt tightley. He did not turn around, he looked back at her. Her face was still stareing at the floor.
"No! Stop it! Inuyasha your being an idiot!! Don't ever doubt who you are...I don't want you to doubt that your a good person. Inuyasha...if you were really that kind of person, would you be standing here...worrying about me like you are? Wouldn't you have just killed me last night? Would you be beating yourself up about it like this!!?" Inuyasha jumped. Mia's hand was shaking as it grasped Inuyasha's shirt. He gently removed her hand and turned around. He was still holding her hand, and he could see her trembling now. "I just...I just wish there was something I could do to convince you...I wish you could see yourself...the way that I see you. Inuyasha...your a good person...don't ever think anything else. Please...I hate to see you so broken up like this." Mia looked up at him. Her face was wet and her eyes were red. Inuyasha sighed and helped her back to her bed. "I'm sorry. I guess I went a little overboard there..." Mia said, laughing weakly.
Inuyasha sat next to her on the bed. He grabbed her shoulder and brought her into an embrace. She smiled and rested her head on his chest. He touched her shoulder where the man had cut her. Inuyasha kissed her shoulder where the cut was. Mia gasped slightley, surprised by the sudden affection. Inuyasha stopped and looked up at her. Their eyes met for a moment, then Inuyasha kissed her neck softly. Mia touched Inuyasha's face, lifting his face to hers. Inuyasha held the back of her head and pushed her into him as his lips claimed hers. Ahem! Mia and Inuyasha jumped apart in surprise and looked over. Yagami was standing at the door way holding a tray. Mia and Inuyasha's faces were glowing scarlet red.
"Yagami!! Have you ever heard of knocking!?" Inuyasha yelled. Yagami gave the tray to the dumbstruck Mia. He tapped her neck where Inuyasha had kissed her. Mia looked at it. Inuyasha had left a mark. She gasped and slapped her hand over it.
"There was a line at the cafitertia and I come back to find you two like this!?" Yagami said shaking with rage. He looked Inuyasha's way. Inuyasha huffed and turned away angriley. Mostly because Yagami interupted. Yagami looked at Mia. She turned away flustered and stuffed her face so she wouldn't have to talk. Mia knew Yagami was jealous, but what could she do? She had already told him before that she just wanted to be friends.
"And besides! Isn't Inuyasha the one that hurt you!?" Inuyasha jumped. "Why are you so attached to this guy Mia!? What is it about Inuyasha? What!? Do you think that you have to take care of him cause he lost his memory or what!?" Mia looked at Yagami. "Once he gets his memory back you know he's going to leave you! That bastard will probably laugh about it to!" Inuyasha was angry now.
"That's not gonna happen! What do you know about it!? If you weren't so jealous all the time maybe you could find some other girl who actually has some interest in you! It's not my fault you've got no appeal to her so go take it out on someone else!" Inuyasha yelled.
"What are you talking about!? If you hadn't followed Mia home like some stray dog with his tail between his legs, She wouldn't be in the hospital now!" Mia gasped.
"Yagami!" Mia yelled
"No Mia! I have to say this! You hurt Mia last night I know you did! How do you know you wont hurt her again!? Your nothing more than a monster!" Everyone was silent after Yagmi finished. Inuyasha didn't move or say anything. Yagami was standing in the middle of the room, silent as well. They heard Mia put her tray down on the bed softly and rose to her feet silently. She walked up to Yagami. They stood there for a moment.
"Mia..." Yagami began, but before he could say his peace he felt a Mia's hand strike his face. His cheek felt hot and stung from the force of it. He looked at her. She was angry.
"Your wrong Yagami! Inuyasha is not a monster! Stop talking for me!! Like you know exactly whats best for me. Like You think you know what I should say! Like I'm a little girl who can't make her own decisions!! You've been doing that ever since Inuyasha showed up! I'm sorry. But I've been silent for too long now, and you just stepped over the line! Don't you ever talk about any of my friends like that!" Mia finished. Yagami stood there in shock. "Yagami, don't get me wrong...I'm grateful for you always being there for me. But that doesn't mean you can run my life and choose who I can and can not hang out with!" Yagami looked away from her. He glared at Inuyasha and walked out of the room. "Yagami! Wait do-" Mia tried to stop him, but he was gone.
Inuyasha walked over next to Mia and put his hand on her shoulder. "I'm sorry Yagami...please understand." Inuyasha heard Mia whisper softly to herself.
The doctor stepped into the room. Mia and Inuyasha looked up. "Ms. Hikaru. Your aunt is here and we would like to start the blood tranfusion." Mia pushed Inuyasha in front of her fast. Inuyasha and the doctor were surprised. Mia was hiding behind Inuyasha, holding onto his shirt.
"No! Thats okay. I have enough blood. Thank you!" Mia said nervously. Inuyasha looked behind him. The doctor smiled.
"Mia? Whats wrong?" Inuyasha asked. Mia pointed at the doctors pocket. Inuyasha looked over and saw a needle in his pocket.
"I hate shots..." Mia said nervously. Inuyasha laughed. "Hey! Don't laugh!" Inuyasha bent down and whispered in her ear.
"Your not scared of demons but your scared of needles? Coward." Inuyasha whispered. Mia huffed angrily and walked over to the doctor. She was obvisouly nervous. She stammered out the door with the doctor and out of sight. Inuyasha was about to leave when he saw Mia running by the door way again, she was running from the nurse's.
"Noo!! Get away from me!" He heard Mia scream in the distance. As she ran the other way.
"Ow! She bit me!" Inuyasha heard a nurse yell.
"Shes a kicker! Ow!" Another nurse yelled.
"We need some help over here!" Another nurse yelled. Inuyasha sighed.
"Ow! Stop it n-got her!"
He saw Mia being dragged back the other way by four other nurses. Inuyasha walked out and headed to the elevator. "Inuyasha! Don't you leave!! I'll be out soon! I want you to be here to take me home! If your not..." Her voice trailed off as she was being dragged away in the distance. Inuyasha laughed. He sighed again and sat down. He yawned, remembering he hadn't gotten any sleep. He drifted slowly into sleep.
A few hours later.
Inuyasha felt a tapping on his shoulder. He opened his eyes slowly and saw Mia hovering above him. "Inuyasha, come on get up, we can go home now." Mia smiled sweetly at him as he rubbed his eyes out of sleep.
"Are you sure your up to going home already? I mean it just happened last night." Inuyasha did want her to come home with him, but he didn't want her to go if she wasn't ready. Mia smiled and pounded on her chest.
"No prob! I'm fine!" Mia stood there for a minute, silent.
"Are you sure?" Inuyasha tapped her wound. Mia smacked his hand.
"Don't touch it, it really hurts!!" Mia yelled. Inuyasha saw a small blood satin coming through her hospital gown. Inuyasha looked up at her. She flinched a little and put her hand over her wound. "I'm fine...But I really want to go home...please."
"All right, thats fine. I'm just glad your not angry with me. But You have to promise to take it easy." Inuyasha said. Mia smiled.
Inuyasha nodded, and Mia went into the bathroom. Inuyasha was left in the room alone. He was still thinking about what had happened. About how he had hurt Mia, how he couldn't even remember any of it. Inuyasha thought of yagami and everything he said to Mia. He knew it was true, for hurting Mia, he was a monster.
