Hello! So sorry I didn't have an author's note in the last. Anyway, I think my first chapter turned out nicely.
Wolf-Teen: Wow, thanks! Sorry I confused you. Oh, and thanks for being the first to review!
AnimeMoonlightGoddess: I am.
Ryukotsusei: Thanks!
proud yusuke fan: I haven't decided the pairings yet.
Disclaimer I do not own YYU or Inuyasha, nor do I own any of the characters from those animes. But I take full credit for this story. This goes for all the chapters.
In the morning, I woke up early and quickly washed and dressed before going downstairs. Despite my being up so early, my mother had already left for work. Now, usually in the mornings, I'd make myself some pancakes, or something like that. But this morning, I instead poured out the rarely used cereal and milk.
After eating, I grabbed my stuff and walked out the door, heading back towards the hospital where my charge laid waiting. When I checked in with the head nurse, I found that Kagome had gone into heart failure last night. They were losing her.
Frowning, I made my way to her room and walked in. Bright flowers greeted me, peeping out from the pots I had planted them in yesterday. Then I looked over at Kagome. If it was even possible, she looked even paler than yesterday.
I busied myself with seeing to her needs, checking the machinery, things like that. When I was done, I sat down, watching Kagome's even breathing. Then, for some reason, I started talking.
"Hi, Kagome. I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself yesterday. My name is Suichi. I'm your caretaker, and I hope you can get better." He said, then stopped, realizing how silly he must sound, talking to an unconscious person.
Sighing, he pulled out the book he had brought and began to read.
A voice? Was someone out there, talking to me? I sensed the room around me. There was someone there, someone with youki. A demon? I set my mind to figuring this out, since I was in one of those rare instances when Naraku wasn't occupying my mind.
But that someone cared enough to sit at my bedside gave me hope. Maybe they can help me. I just need to get their attention. Maybe mind speech? Well, it was worth a try. "Hello." I called out. "Can you hear me? I need help, please. Save me from him! Can you-" but I was cut off as a familiar figure popped back in.
"Now, now, Kagome. I can't have you getting help now, can I?" chuckled Naraku as he descended over me, ready for more torture.
I jerked my head up. What was that?
Hello. Can you hear me? I need help, please. Save me from him! Can you-
But then it was gone. It sounded like the voice of a girl. But just then, the heart monitor sped up.
Narrowing my eyes, I stood and walked over. Her pulse was racing and her breath was coming in quick gasps. I clasped my hand over hers.
"Kagome, please calm down. It's ok, I'm here." I said, hoping maybe my words would get through to her.
Her heart beat slowed down, as did her breathing. Good, it had worked.
I plopped down in my chair, wiping the sweat from my brow. Wait, I had been sweating? Now why did this human make me worry? Well, it was true I had a compassionate heart, especially for humans. Shrugging it away, I looked up as a pop echoed through the room.
It was Koenma, in his teenager form. I stood, bowing slightly. "Koenma sir." I said. "That is the girl. What can you say of her aura?" I asked.
Koenma frowned as he focused on the girl, walking closer. He closed his eyes, as he examined Kagome's aura, then jerked back with surprise.
"This girl is a miko!" he cried, making my eyes widen.
This small slip of a girl was a miko? Demons were taught to be wary of mikos, since they were very dangerous to demons, able to destroy them by purifying them. And I have heard that being purified wasn't a very pleasant experience. Also, no miko had been seen in the demon or human worlds for 200 years. So why was there one now?
"Kurama, you must wake her and bring her to Spirit World. She must not be allowed to run around without supervision. She is very dangerous, so be wary." Koenma cautioned before disappearing.
I frowned after he had left. To wake her, I would need to get into her mind, and that was not a skill I possessed. So, I would have to convince the one demon I knew had the skill to help me.
So, when my day was over and I had left, I set out to find Hiei. And as I thought, he was perched in his usual tree.
"Hiei! Come down here for a moment." I said, looking up.
With a "hn," he jumped down, clasping his sword.
"What is it, fix?" he asked, his eyes narrowing at me.
"I need you to help me, Hiei. There is this girl in the hospital I need to wake from a coma so I can bring her to Spirit World. I need you to do that." I requested of the fire-ice apparition.
"What's the catch?" Hiei asked after a few moments of silence.
I sighed. "She's a miko."
There was a few more minutes of silence. "Fine." He said. "I'll meet you at your house tomorrow." And with that, he darted off.
I breathed a sigh of relief. Good, no arguments. Happy, I walked home to greet my mother, thinking about what would happen tomorrow.
But a sudden thought hit me: What would happen if Hiei succeeded in waking Kagome up, and she realized that we were demons?
Ok, pairings. I'll have a poll. Once I decide about Kagome, then everyone else will be decided. Mm'k, tha choices for Kagome:
Inuysha
Kurama/Youko Kurama
Hiei
Yusuke
Also, feel free to suggest characters.
