Kagome sat in the ambulance beside InuYasha, holding his hand tightly as she watched out of the window the image of Sesshomaru being drug away by the police. 'All for the better though' she thought. 'H'es probably only going to get help anyway and then neither InuYasha nor Sesshomaru will have to suffer anymore' she thought to herself. She looked over InuYasha's still unconcious figure. "I can't believe it" she said, feeling the tears well up in her eyes again. "I can't believe I knew about this and let it go so far!" she said, putting all the blame on herself. "I'm so stupid!" she yelled. "Why am I so stupid" she said, as the emergeny people entered the back of the ambulance with her.
"Miss you're not stupid. It's a good thing you called us when you did or it might have been too late for your friend" one of the ambulance men told her, putting a hand on her shoulder and then examining InuYasha over. "Hmmm" he thought. "Is he ok?" Kagome asked. "Yeah. He'll just be out for a while" he said, though his expression told her that it was much more serious then that. They drove all the way to the hospital in silence, Kagome all the while squeazing InuYasha's hand tightly, refusing to let go as if her life depended in it. Then it was time to enter the hospital where they led her down several hallways with many turns left and right, then left and then right again. Finally they came to room 879 on the 10th floor where all of the important stuff was.
They layed InuYasha on a hospital bed, putting a needle connected to a tank of blood in his hand. It made Kagome sick to see it. Good thing he was unconcious or he would have bit there heads off for sticking that thing in him, Kagome thought letting a faint smile cross her lips as she remembered how unusually stubborn he was. Then they took her out of the room to look him over, making sure everything was ok and that nothing was seriously damaged. Kagome sat in the hallway, fear taking over her body. Then, at least an hour later, she saw them emerge from the door...it seemed as though they were in a hurry. Then Kagome saw why. One of the men pushed InuYasha's bed down the hall and she caught a glimpse of him. His cuts were turning a dark shade of purple and the blood had gone black. His face was a light shade of grey and his half opened eyes were no longer a beautiful amber color...more like a soft grey.
Kagome followed as they pushed him into the operating room and then left as they noticed her and shooed her out, sending a man with her to keep her company. "What's happening to InuYasha?" she asked. "Well...it turns out he's been poisoned somehow. Something in those wounds are spreading poison throughout his body and they need to get it out as soon as possible or it will be too late and the freak will die" he said, then he noticed the depressed look come over Kagome's face and the tears falling from her eyes and added "but i'm sure everything will be fine" putting on a fake smile and hoping that it would make the kid feel better. Kagome had had enough of this guy, she pushed him over into a stack of Novocain needles and ran down the hallway to the waiting room, where she sat for about 5 hours, waiting for InuYasha to come out of the operation. (If you're wondering what poisoned InuYasha, it was Sesshomaru's poison nails).
Then finally a doctor came to get her, telling her that they had put a spare bed in InuYasha's room so that she could go to sleep and be with her friend, but first they needed to have a bit on an interview with her. They took her into a dark room, sat her on a chair and shone a bright light in her eyes (kind alike in those detective movies i hate so much). "What happened at the park? Tell us from the beginning." the man told her. It was definately not a question. "Well after school we decided to hang out in the park for a while so we did and we got talking and didn't notice how much time had gone by and then InuYasha's brother Sesshomaru came by to get him and he was real mad that he wasn't already home and started to beat him cause he does that loads" Kagome said.
"Ok" the detective man said writing everything down on a piece of paper. "Now. Did InuYasha live with his brother?" the detective asked. "Yes" Kagome nodded. "His parents died when he was little." she said. "Does he have any living relatives that could take him in?" the man inquired. "I don't know you would have to ask him that" Kagome said. "Did he get beaten often?" the man continued. "Yes" Kagome answered. Then he noticed the cuts and bruises on Kagome. "Did his brother hurt you too?" he asked. "No" Kagome shook her head. "He never met me before I don't think..." she said, pondering for a second. "Then where did you get those bruises?" he asked. "Are you beaten too?" he wondered. All Kagome could do was nod. If this was her chance to leave her father and step mother, she would gladly take it.
"Ok. By who?" the man asked. "My daddy" she answered, her eyes swelling with tears. "Ok. "You're coming with me." he said, leading her to InuYasha's room. "We'll keep you both here until we can find foster parents or an orphan age that can take you in" he said, nodding to her and beginning to walk away but Kagome had opened her mouth to ask a question and seeing this he stopped. "Yes?" he asked.
"Will we ever see our families again?" Kagome wondered. "No. I'm sorry but I don't think you will. Judging by your injuries I'd say they're too abusive. Sometimes it gets too out of hand and no matter how hard we try we can't get them to overcome it. I'm sorry" he said, walking away from her.
Kagome layed herself on the bed near InuYasha and watched him, praying for him to wake up soon. Then she got up and closed the door so they wouldn't be watched all night by annoying nurses and such and layed herself down, watching InuYasha again. She was beginning to worry. He was still a light color of grey, but atleast his wounds were looking a little better, they were now a dark shade of pink.
A few hours later Kagome had practically dozed off and would have done so if it wasn't for a loud groan that erupted from InuYasha, as he stirred for the first time in hours. Kagome looked over at InuYasha, hoping that he was now going to be ok. He looked now as white as a sheet, but atleast he wasn't grey anymore. His wounds were now a medium shade of fuchsai. He stirred in his blankets some more, groaning but not opening his eyes. Then he let of a minor scream, loud enough only for someone on the other side of the room to hear. Kagome walked over to him and touched his shoulder as a tear trickled down his cheek. "m-mother" he whispered. "NO! S-Sesshomaru!" he yelled. "Don't do this to mother!...No...lemme go. stop it. please." he said, letting out a loud scream.
Kagome shook him but he wouldn't wake, he just screamed some more. All she could do was sit there beside him and hold onto his hand as he suffered. Then he rolled over and faced upwards again. Kagome brushed the hair out of his face and wiped his tears away as he shed more. He began kicked and yelling again, Kagome couldn't stand it. She layed down beside him and hugged him whispering soothing words into his ear until finally he calmed. The last of the tears fell down his cheeks and she wiped the away with the back of her hand, gave him another hug and walked back to her bed, only to find that the screaming had started again. She walked back and layed next to him, giving his hand a squeaze and was relieved that the screaming had stopped.
He whimpered and cried still but at least he wasn't screaming anymore. Kagome got under the covers figuring that she might as well as she wasn't expecting to leave his bed anytime soon, but as she untucked the covers and prepared to get into bed InuYasha sat bolt upright, panting and sweating, the tears now rolling down his cheeks as he whispered hysterically to himself. "Mother! Mother! Where's mother? Is she ok? Sesshomaru! I'll kill him for this!" he said, stepping out of bed and running towards the window, attempting to lift it but finding that it was no use. He sat in the middle of the floor, knees bent and hugging them, rocking back and forth on the spot, whispering insanely all the while.
Kagome walked over and touched his shoulder, sitting down beside him. InuYasha gave her a horrified look and pushed over, muttering all the while. "I-InuYasha...a-are you o-ok?" Kagome asked, beginning to feel a bit afraid. "He killed her! He killed her and then...and then...they're all dead! DEAD!" he yelled. The tears continued to roll down his cheeks and he sat in the same position he had before, knees bent, hugging them and rocking back and forth. He looked terrified and Kagome walked over and sat beside him again, putting her arms around him and engulfing him in a hug. "InuYasha, you're scaring me" she told him. "K..Kagome! They're dead!" he said again, holding on the the front of her shirt, his eyes wide as soccer balls and his face pale as a blank sheet of paper.
"Who? Who's dead InuYasha? Who?" she asked him, feeling more scared by the second. "All of them" he answered. "All of who?" Kagome asked, now feeling absolutely terrified at his abnormal behavior. "T...They. They're dead and it's my fault! I couldn't do anything about it!" he sobbed. "Tell me what happened" Kagome ordered. "F-Father! He killed mother and then...then! Then S-Sesshomaru! He...He killed father! He slit his throat and got stabbed himself! He bathed her in her own blood, made her drink it, and smothered her in it! He poured his sons blood on himself, killed himself! His sons blood!...am I...Am I dead? Am I dead too Kagome? Kagome! Tell me! Am I dead?" he asked repeatedly.
"No! You're not dead! Let me go!" she yelled, throwing his arms away from her and running down the hallway to get some help. InuYasha just sat quietly in the middle of the floor and let his tears fall to the ground as he rocked back and forth. Kagome then arrived with one of the doctors who put InuYasha on some medication and then put him back to sleep. "He'll be alright in the morning. Just get some rest" he assured her, giving her a pat on the back and leaving her to go to sleep.
In the morning, InuYasha was first to wake up. He sat by the window sill staring out at nothing in particular, wishing that he could go for a nice, long walk and get away from everything. Escape everything but his own mind...but that's what he wanted to escape from the most. Himself, his mind and all of the memories he had of the past. Flashes of his mother lying lifeless on a dirty road, surrounded by her own blood filled his head again. Why did he have to go and see that? Then the flashes of his father coming home and being drunk and full of blood from fights filled his mind. He could feel the hurt his father used to put on him.
Then he heard a noise behind him and saw that Kagome was awake. He quickly turned to look back out the window to stare at nothing. She walked up behind him and put a hand on his shoulder, he flinched and she pulled it away quickly. "I'm sorry" she said. InuYasha just continued staring out the window, apearing not to have taken any notice that she had spoken at all, but knowing he had heard her.
Kagome noticed that he was still pale, but his wounds now looked merely as healing scabs, no odd color, just normal. His eyes made him look sick and the dullness of his amber colored eyes scared her. Was he not yet well? "How are you feeling?" she asked. He shrugged. "Feh" he answered. "No! I need an answer! You scared me last night! I want to know how you are!" she commanded. "Look, i'm fine ok?" he said, quite annoyed. "No! It's not ok! I was really worried about you! Y-You scared me! I didn't even know if you were going to make it!" she yelled. "Well I did make it so just drop it alright?" he answered back in an equally angry tone.
"What happened last night? What were you dreaming about before you woke up and...well...what was it about?" she asked. "NONE OF YOUR BUISNESS!" he yelled, pushing over a book case and sitting at the drawing table that was in their room and beginning to paint a picture. "Whatever! Can you blame me for wanting to know why my friend went so crazed! I comforted you! I helped you and this is how you say thanks? By pushing me away?" she cried. InuYasha got up from the table and walked towards her. "Look. Kagome, i'm sorry, please don't cry" he said, putting a hand on her shoulder. "No! Don't touch me! I can't believe you! I HATE YOU!" she screamed and ran down to the rec room for the kids downstairs where maybe she could blow off some steam on video games.
InuYasha flattened his ears to his head in that very same sad position that he had gotten her to be friends with him with. He hated himself so much. Why was he such a jerk? He knew she was only trying to help and she too had been through a lot but all he could think about was himself, and it drove him insane. He couldn't descirbe his hated for himself because it was too strong. Too strong to put into words...and there he went thinking only about himself again. What was so wrong with him that not even his best friend could stand to be with him? He knew he couldn't go on without Kagome. He needed to make up with her. Just then she walked back into the room. "Look InuYasha" she started. "I'm sorry" they both said at the same time. "No you don't have to be. I'm such a jerk, you deserve better friend then me." he said.
"No! You're the best friend I ever had!" Kagome said hugging him again. "You meen it?" InuYasha asked. "Yeah I do" she answered. They spent the next week in the hospital, having not found any foster care yet. They sat playing with cards or paint and made animal faces on each other or they just pretended to be animals, it didn't matter. They were just having fun.
Then about another week later Kagome came storming into the room. "What's wrong?" InuYasha asked her. "I was adopted" she cried, tears literally rolling down her cheeks, one coming right after another. "No!" InuYasha yelled. "Y...You weren't...no way...will I ever see you again?" he asked, going from denial to worry. "I don't...yes. Yes. You will definately see me again. I don't care what the obstacles are but I will see you again before long" she said, hugging him and then pulling away so she could pack. "When are you leaving?" InuYasha asked her. "10 minutes" she replied, getting all of her stuff together and then sitting down beside InuYasha, wrapping her arms around his shoulder and planting a soft kiss on his cheek. "I love you" she whispered in his ear as the door opened and her foster parents came in. "I love you to" he said, not returning the kiss but just staring as she walked out of the door, closing it behind her and leaving him alone.
The tears rolled down his cheeks continuously. He cried for days and he never ate anymore. He was becomeing dangerously thin and was on more medication then all of the other kids in the hospital. He never drank anything, he just painted. Painted pictures of death, and blood...but there was one special picture that he kept safe, the picture Ksgome had made for him. He hung it on the wall so he could look at it as he lay in bed. That was another thing, he never slept either...not since Kagome had left him.
