Ch.10 A Order's Consequences
"Well what?" Kagome asked him as he looked down.
"Uhh...well..." Inuyasha started and sat up and Kagome saw him do this and did the same.
"Inuyasha? It's ok...if your not ready to talk about it I understand." Kagome said and rested her head on his shoulder.
"I can talk about it, I just don't know how to explain it right." Inuyasha told her and he looked down at her.
"Oh...well just tell me what happend." Kagome told him looking up at him.
"My dad died about a month ago and..." He stopped when he heard her gasp.
"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry Inuyasha. You should have said something if you didn't want to talk about it." Kagome said sadly.
"No it's ok, i'm ok now. Just my mom wanted to move away once we were able to after the funeral." Inuyasha told her.
"Oh, I'm sorry." She said once again.
"It's ok. And that's why your mom hugged me, my mom must have told her." Inuyasha explained.
"Why did she say that? If you had to leave for a while again? What did she mean by 'again'?" Kagome asked him looking up at him.
"Well...after he died I got mad...and..." Inuyasha started but stopped and looked to the side.
"You don't have to tell me Inuyasha, it's ok." Kagome assured him.
"No...Your probably the only person I could confide in about everything, It's just...once I think about it, it sounds stupid." He told her now looking at her.
"You don't have to tell me anything Inuyasha, but if you choose to you can always trust me." Kagome told him.
"I know...well...I got mad and ran away but then I had to come back because my mom called the cops when I didn't return and I felt like it was everyone else's fault so I had a grudge on everyone and I started spending my mom's money on stuff I wanted which was VERY expensive. That's when my mom thought it was best for a move, she thought it would help alot." He told her looking to the side again.
"Did it?" Kagome asked turning his face to look at her.
"At first? No, but now it's much better." Inuyasha smirked. Kagome smiled up at him.
"Oh really?" She asked. "And why is that?" She asked looking at him.
"Do you even have to ask? Why do you think?" Inuyasha asked in wonderment.
"I don't know, could be Miroku or the school, or even Koga." She listed off.
"Hell no! No way is it Koga, that damn wolf and it's definitely not that pervert, he's my friend and all but...no, hmm, and the school? It could be better." He told her. She giggled at his reaction.
"Well...it could also be the nieghborhood." Kagome suggested.
"It could be, only if the nieghborhood was any good." Inuyasha told her and smirked at the look of her face as she tried to think of a reason.
"Hmm...I got nothing then." Kagome told him. "You are very difficult, I can't think of a reason. You already said no to all my other suggestions."
"Well then that's your loss." He told her as he got up and she fell back since she was leaning against him.
"Hey! Where are you going? Your not going to tell me?" Kagome asked as she got up to follow him.
"I could but I just remembered I have an appointment to pick something up at the mall." Inuyasha told her as he walked downstairs.
"But you could at least give me a hint though." She whinned.
"I could but the thought of the sheer torture you would go through trying to think of the reason sounds so much more appealing." He chuckled.
"Your mean." She said and hit him in the back.
"Ow, wench do you want to go or not?" He asked.
"Ya I guess so." She sighed.
"Keh, and i'm not mean." He argued.
"Yes you are." She asked him.
"Am not." He tried to say quietly so she wouldn't hear but she did.
"Whatever." She said as she walked in front of him.
They walked into the kitchen and found Ms. Higurashi and Mrs. Kappei sitting there at the table.
"Mother, were going to go to the mall real fast. Is that ok?" Inuyasha asked his mom.
"Ya just come right back." She told him.
"Yes, because we'll be having dinner soon." Ms. Higurashi told them.
"Ok bye mom." Kagome told her as they walked out of the kitchen. "Wait a sec, Inuyasha. Sango has my car." She stopped as she told him. "You just had to agree for them to take it, didn't you?"
"Well we can walk to my house and pick my car up." He told her as they walked to the door.
"Fine." She agreed. They started walking to his house. "Wait I forgot my jacket." Kagome said when they reached the end of the street.
"You can't be serious, you can use mine if you get cold." He told her and she sighed.
"Fine...you know this is all your fault." Kagome told him.
"Oh ya and why is that?" He asked her.
"Because you talked me into letting Sango take my car which should have been back by now." Kagome argued.
"Your full of it." Inuyasha told her as he walked ahead.
"No i'm not it's true, and then you start to talk to me but wont even answer me back." Kagome told him.
"Keh, not my fault you can't figure it out." Inuyasha said as he walked not even looking at her.
"You could at least give me a hint." Kagome told him.
"I have already...many hints. But you just can't figure it out." He told her.
"Whatever...maybe your hints arn't good enough" She mumbled, they just kept walking until Inuyasha heard Kagome shivering. He took his jacket off and put it over her shoulders.
"Kag, all you had to do was ask." He told her and he kept walking and she stopped.
"What did you just call me?" She asked him.
"I called you Kag...I always used to call you that." He told her as he walked back to her. "Why is something wrong?" He asked her.
"No, just been a while since someone called me that...sorry." Kagome said and blushed as she walked down the sidewalk.
"Keh." He just followed behind.
"Inuyasha?" She asked as she looked down.
"Ya?" He asked speeding up so he was walking next to her.
"Why do you think it took so little to break our trust to get mad at each other?" She asked him as they walked down the sidewalk.
"Well when I found out you left without telling me I thought it was all a joke, that you never truly wanted to be my friend but I thought about it and realized that you and me had been together as friends way to long to throw away a friendship so I figured you would call...you never did. I was never mad at you Kagome, I want you to know that. I was mad at myself for not knowing and for letting Naraku get the best of me. I knew deep down that you would never do any of that...but I let my guard down and he got to me and I took it out on you and I'm so sorry for that." He told her as he stopped and stood in front of her as he apologized.
"That's so good to hear...I was never mad...actually I couldn't be, cause I had no clue why you were mad at me, I never distrusted you. I thought you lost your trust in me, and when you seemed to be mad at me I figured I would treat you the same way you treated me." She told him.
"Well thank goodness your stubborn enough to do that because we probably would have never realized we were wrong if you weren't. I never lost trust in you, I couldn't. I knew I couldn't for different reasons." He told her grinning down at her. She smiled back and leaned in to hug him.
"Ya, I think I can't loose trust in you for the same reasons." She told him.
'That can't be it Kag, because my reason is totally different then yours because...the truth is I love you, but I don't want to loose my best friend so...but you mean so much to me so maybe I will chance it.' "Come on let's go." Inuyasha pulled away with a grin and they walked the rest of the way to his house quietly. They got to the house and Inuyasha opened the garage.
"Wow nice house." Kagome said from the side as she looked around at it.
"Sure it is, of course it comes no where near a shrine." He told her.
"Ya well I would take this over a shrine any day...to much work." She said as she walked to the garage. "Oh my gosh! This is your car?!" She asked running to the silver 2000 Ferrari sitting there in the garage.
"Yup, like it?" He asked her with a smirk.
"Wow I think your car tops my car." she said playfully.
"Well I try." He chuckled. "Even without all your decorations on yours." He laughed at the memory of what they went through trying to get all that on her car.
"Hardy har har, laugh it up." She told him as she checked out his car. "I'm guessing this is one of those very expensive things you bought after your dad passed away?" she asked sadly but out of curiosity.
"No, actually I bought this when I lost you." He told her getting in the car. "Get in." He told her as she got in and turned to look at him.
"You didn't loose me, you can never get rid of me...ever." She told him looking him in the eyes and then started rummaging through his car.
"Find anything interesting?" He chuckled as he asked driving out of the drive-way and down to the highway.
"Nah, nothing special. Just all this boring crap." She said as she looked through the glove compartment. Then she froze. She pulled back surprised and then grabbed the object and pulled it out. "Inuyasha." She said very quietly and scared.
"Ya?" He asked without looking.
"Why do you have a gun?" She asked as she lifted it to her lap and he suddenly stepped on the brakes and turned to see the gun in her hands. Cars started honking behind them so he pulled to the side of the road.
"Give me that Kagome." He said sticking his hand out.
"No, why do you have this?" She asked him as she held on to it tighter. "Please tell me you have a good reason."
"Kagome I...I don't have to explain nothing to you!" He told her as he reached for the gun.
"Inuyasha please..." Kagome started crying. "Just tell me why you have this." She told him pulling it away from him.
"Kag I...I can't." He said looking at the gun. "I didn't know it was in there, now give it to me. I don't want it to go off and hurt you." Inuyasha told her. She handed him the gun slowly and he took it from her grasp.
"What happend to you saying you wouldn't use a gun if you didn't have to?" She asked him covering her face with her hands as she cried. She was shoked he had something like that.
"People change Kagome. I changed alot, you can't stop what I do but this..." He looked down at the gun waving it as he mentioned it. "This was a mistake." He told her.
"What was the reason you bought it then?" She asked him now looking at him.
"Kagome please stop crying." He said as he leaned toward her and wiped her tears once he put the gun down.
"Why Inuyasha!?" She demanded.
"I was upset ok?! Happy?! I was upset! Everything was happening all at once, I couldn't stop all the crap that kept happening!" He yelled at her but felt bad once he saw her face. She looked scared a bit but still very shoked. "Kagome I didn't mean to yell at you." He told her as he stroked her face with his hand.
"What were you going to do with it? Were you going to end someone's life for your problems!?" She demanded again.
"Kag, please." He asked of her as he looked down.
"Answer me!" She yelled, new tears now falling.
"No..." He told her, she thought he was saying no he wasn't going to answer and looked down. "I wouldn't end someone else's life! I was going to end...I was going to end mine, ok?!" He told her and looked at her when he heard her gasp. "Kagome please stop crying, I didn't ok? As you can see i'm still here, I was to scared to do it. I'm an idiot I know, ok? Now please stop crying." He begged.
"Inuyasha..." She started but cut herself off as she leaned over and hugged him tightly.
"Kagome." He said quietly and sighed as he hugged back. She cried into his chest.
"You got that right, you are an idiot. But thank kami your ok." She said through sobs.
"Kagome, please." He begged her. She looked up at him.
"Please what? You were going to kill yourself! You can't get me to calm down over something so important as that! What if you went along with it? Huh? What would have happend then?" She asked him shakily.
"Kagome I didn't so can we stop talking about it?" He asked her. He grabbed her hand and started stroking it. "Please stop crying."
"Inuyasha how could you do such a thing?" She asked him. She was so overwhelmed with shock and fright.
"Ok first off I didn't get it only for me, I got it to kill that bastard Naraku! He kept talking about you like you were some kind of slut! I didn't believe...I couldn't believe you were actually with him like that, and when he threatened me and told me I shouldn't worry since you would be his soon enough I snapped. I figured when you never showed up to school he was bluffing but when you never said anything before you left was what got me to buy his reasons! Ok?!" He told her half way to yelling. Now Kagome was crying for all different reasons, she was hearing things she didn't want to know. 'What the hell is wrong with you Inuyasha? You can't keep doing this to yourself! I care about you, can't you understand that? Your my best friend!...but I feel like...no your my friend! Then what is this feeling that is just so overwhelming that I feel? Dammit Inuyasha, why do I find out about all this stuff that happend after I left...it's all my fault. Everything that's happend has something to do with me. Shit shit shit, i'm so sorry.' Kagome thought.
"Inuyasha i'm so sorry." She cried into his chest taking him by surprise.
"Your sorry?...For what?" He asked her confused. He lifted her chin to face him.
"Everything is my fault." She sobbed. "If it wasn't for me none of this would have happend."
"Don't you dare say that, it wasn't your fault." He told her, trying to make her understand.
"But it was, it's true. Everything happend because of me Inuyasha! Naraku made you believe this shit because of me, you believed him because you had no other source of what happend because of me, and you bought that...that gun because of me." She choked out. "Inuyasha...i'm so so sorry."
He made her look at him as he spoke to her but she wouldn't dare look him in the eyes. "Kag, look at me." He told her as she shook her head. "Kagome, please look at me." He said again softly as he lifted her chin to face him. "None of this was your fault, Kagome please listen to me." She nodded and looked down, she grabbed the gun and put it back in the glove compartment. He watched her with a guilty feeling. "Would it make you feel better if I got rid of it?" He asked her.
"You would do that?" She asked as she looked up at him with a bit of hope.
"If you want me to I will...just for you." He told her and she smiled and nodded wiping away her tears.
"Ok, I promise I will. But for now let's hurry before our mom's think we had a car accident or something." He chuckled as he pulled out and sped down the highway.
"I'm guessing your mom dosn't like your driving?" Kagome asked trying to change the subject from the gun.
"Not one bit." He said as she giggled. "And your telling me your mom let's you drive without argument?" He asked her.
"Of course not...I just don't drive normally around her." She grinned. Inuyasha chuckled.
"Sly one Kag." He told her.
"Why of course." She smirked.

"This better be good." A voice on the other side of the cell phone said.
"It is, the two have stopped to talk but they seem to be going toward Shikon Mall. What do we do from here?" The man asked.
"Where is Koga?" He asked.
"I havn't seen him." He told the man.
"Well Hiten, go ahead and do what you please then." He told him.
"Yes Naraku, but what about the girl?" Hiten asked.
"Bring her to me." Naraku said as he hung up.
"You've been in the way for way to long Inuyasha." Hiten said as he followed them in his car.
VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV
"I knew I recognized that name somewhere, it was like at the tip of my tongue but I couldn't remember." Kagome went on as they walked back to the parking lot from picking up his sword.
"Ya, so you said." Inuyasha said as he continued to listen.
"Oh so your tired of hearing me talk now?" She asked playfully as she crossed her arms.
"No that's not it, I just loooove to hear you talk. You never stop how can I not, but you don't have to keep talking about how you couldn't remember where you knew the name tetsusaiga." He chuckled. She stuck her tongue out and hit him playfully. "Oi, wench." He said and turned and grabbed her at the waist. "Hold on....There's something I need to tell you Kag." He said softly.
"What's that?" She asked nervously from their closeness.
"Well well well, long time no see. How's it going Inuyasha?" A voice asked.
Inuyasha spun around toward the voice but only saw a shadow. "Who's there?" He asked growling as he threw Kagome behind him.
"You don't remember me?" He asked as he stepped forward. "I'm hurt you don't remember." Kagome was trying to see over Inuyasha's shoulder and gasped.
"It's....it's Hiten." She said as she stepped back.
"Hey there Kagome, havn't seen you in a long time." He said as he walked closer to the two.
"What do you want Hiten?" Inuyasha growled.
"I'm here for her. I have orders to retrieve her." He told him.
"Oh ya? By who?" He asked as he stood on guard.
"By Naraku of course. You know he has really missed you Kagome, you should have seen him when you left." He told them.
"He looked fine to me." Inuyasha said.
"Now Inuyasha, are you going to make this hard? You don't still have a grudge from our last encounter do you?" He asked advancing on him.
"Shut the hell up Hiten!" Inuyasha growled out.
"Inuyasha what is he talking about?" Kagome asked worriedly.
"Nothing! Just stay back!" Inuyasha told her. "Hiten you better keep your fucking hands off of her!" Inuyasha yelled.
"Well I guess were going to have to do this the hard way then." Hiten said now in front of Inuyasha as he made an attempted punch, but luckily Inuyasha blocked it and punched back.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled out as she backed up away from the two fighting.
"Get away Hiten, you don't want me to get violent do you?" Inuyasha asked.
"Let's see what you got." Hiten said as he punched back.
"Go to hell Hiten." Inuyasha growled when he swiped at him with his claws and then sent another punch his way.
"Urgh! No way i'm going without you!" Hiten ground out through gritted teeth.
"Fuck you!" Inuyasha yelled as he punched him in the face.
"Stupid hanyou! You have no idea what your getting yourself into." He said as he got up from his spot on the ground.
"Funny I was about to say the same thing, now are you going to get up or are you going to die on me?" Inuyasha asked.
"You wish." He said back.
"Where's Manten you two are usually inseperable during fights." Inuyasha pressed on.
"Ya wouldn't you like to know, but he's not involved in this." He told him as he pushed him to the ground almost hitting a car.
Inuyasha jumped up and threw more punches as he growled out at him.
"You hanyou's are all alike, so pathetic." Hiten said once he pulled out a gun and held it to Inuyasha's chest.
"INUYASHA!" Kagome yelled out horrified.
"Damn you." Inuyasha said to him as he just stood there.
"I'll kill you then i'll get the girl, and there's nothing you can do to stop me." Hiten told him.
"You wish bastard!" Inuyasha growled as he punched him in the jaw and he fell to the ground as the gun fell out of his reach.
"Your pathetic, you can't win against me. This will be the last day you see that bitch because today is your last day to live." Hiten threatened as he got up and popped his jaw, then attacked him making his way to the gun.
"Your nothing but and over confident cocky bastard." Inuyasha said once he got him to the ground again after he sent a right hook his way.
"Ya and yet your still the one that's going to die after this is over. How ironic." He said as he got to the gun and grabbed it but Inuyasha grabbed his arm and punched him in the gut before throwing him to the ground. "You want to play rough, then let's play rough." Hiten said as he got up and ran over to Kagome. She saw him coming and turned to run but he grabbed her wrist and held the gun to her head.
"Let her go! Your fights with me!" Inuyasha yelled.
"Ya but what if I just feel like seeing you suffer? All I have to do is pull this trigger and this bitch will be gone." Hiten said as he cocked the hammer of the handgun. Kagome gasped and stood still with her eyes tightly shut.
"Don't you dare pull that trigger! Get away from her asshole!" Inuyasha yelled. He got closer but stopped because the closer he got the closer Hiten brought the gun to Kagome's head.
"Keep coming closer and see what happens to your pretty bitch." Hiten said and chuckled.
"You fucking bastard." Inuyasha said through gritted teeth.
Kagome gulped. 'Ok if I punch him at least i'll prevent myself from being killed right?...I guess it's worth a try.' She thought to herself and jabbed her elbow into his stomach and the gun moved and shot her in the arm as she got away with a scream as she stumbled from the blow of the shot.
"Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled and punched Hiten pushing him to the ground and ran to Kagome.
"You idiot, what were you thinking? Are you ok?" He asked her kneeling in front of her and grimaced from the wound he saw on her arm. "Stay here so I can get rid of..." He started but his eyes widened after a cock and two shot sounds were made.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome asked slowly. He was having trouble breathing and grabbed her shoulders for support. He looked down as he weakened.
"Run...Kagome." Inuyasha struggled to say as he looked up at her but fell to the ground on top of her. Kagome looked at him, he had been shot twice in the back.
"NO! INUYASHA!" She screamed then started stroking the side of his face while she cried.
"Get...away n-now!" Inuyasha tried to yell but came out shakily in a raspy whisper.
"I can't! Inuyasha, I can't leave you!" Kagome told him. "Please be ok, please please be ok." She said sadly pushing his bangs out of his face.
"He can't help you, now come with me." Hiten said as he came closer to her.
"Leave me alone!" Kagome yelled at him.
"I have my orders, either come with me or I come and get you before I finish him off." He told her cocking his gun.
"NO!" She screamed and looked him in the eyes before speaking again. "Sorry Inuyasha, I'll be right back. He can't hurt you anymore." She cried out as she pulled out from under him and ran. 'What do I do? Inuyasha!...I know!' She ran to the car and threw the door open and got his gun out of the glove compatment.
"You bastard! You shot him!" She yelled spinning toward Hiten as tears fell and then shot him in the arm.
"UGH!" His left side was pushed back from the shot. "Bitch!" He growled holding his arm.
"Your lucky! I was aming for your heart!" She yelled and shot again shooting him in the side and he fell unconscious after getting pushed back into a car. She dropped the gun realizing what she just did and she started shaking, she finally ran to Inuyasha. "Inuyasha!" She yelled as she sat by him. He was pushing himself over so he was lying on his back and she helped him.
"First time using a gun huh?" He asked weakly and out of breath when he grabbed her shaking hand. She just nodded as tears fell.
"Inuyasha, your going to be ok right?" She asked him as she lied his head in her lap.
"Of course...nothing can defeat me, i'm with you always." He said softly between coughs, she started to cry more when he started coughing blood.
"You better be telling the truth." She cried out letting her tears fall.
"Please stop crying Kag...for me?" He asked her.
"Inuyasha, i'm sorry I was being mean earlier." She sobbed. "I was just surprised." He nodded to her.
"Kagome it's ok I-..." He started.
"What is it?" She asked tightening her grip on his hand.
"...I need to tell you something...that has been on my mind a while." He said as his vision started to get fuzzy.
"What's that?" She chocked out.
"Kag...I lo- I..." He started but couldn't finish as his hand dropped from hers.
"NO! INUYASHA!" She yelled and grabbed his shirt and lied her face on his chest for a few minutes. Then she got up and got his cell phone from his pocket. "I'm need to get help...please just hang on Inuyasha." She cried and called an ambulance with a shaky voice holding her arm where she got shot and dropped the phone afterwards.

"Ugh...where am I?" Kagome wondered as she woke up looking around as her memory came back. "Inuyasha!" She looked next to her and saw Inuyasha lying on the bed next to her's with alot of machines surrounding him. "Oh Inuyasha." She said sadly yet softly. She looked down and saw her arm was bandaged up. She got up and walked to the chair next to his bed and sat down. "Inuyasha please wake up." She said looking at his face.
"Great your awake, are you the one who called?" A doctor asked as he walked into the room, he was medium size in height and pretty skinny with brown eyes and light brown hair. Kagome nodded and looked back down at Inuyasha. "May I ask you what your name is? I'm Dr. Kiron." He told her.
"Hi-Higurashi...it's Kagome Hisgurashi." She said shakily.
"Well would you like to call some family maybe?" He asked walking toward her. She nodded. "Come with me." He said and led her to the front desk.
"Thank you." She said as she picked up the phone. She dialed and heard it ringing.
"Hello?" Ms. Higurashi answered the phone.
"Mom?" Kagome asked.
"Kagome where are you two? You guys sure are taking a long time, Sango and Rin are already back. Where are you?" She asked her.
"W-were at the hospital." She said and tried to keep the tears back from what happend but failed.
"The hospital? Why? Is everything ok? Kagome are you crying? Did something happen?" Ms. Higurashi panicked.
"Oh mom." Kagome cried out. "I-it's Inuyasha, he hasn't woken up yet. I don't know if he's ok or not, I havn't asked the doctor's yet. I just woke up." She told her.
"Just woke up? Kagome what happend?" Her mom asked worriedly.
"Inuyasha is in the room...he hasn't woken up, I don't know what to do mom." Kagome cried into the phone.
"Kagome, were coming right now." Her mom said as she told everyone.
"Th-thanks mom." She said and hung up the phone. She went back to the room and sat next to the bed.
"Are they coming?" The doctor asked.
"Yes, what about him? Is he ok?" Kagome asked.
"I'll let you know so I can tell you all together." He told her. "Would you care to explain what happend?" He asked, she looked at him and the looked back at Inuyasha and thought back and kept picturing him getting shot, she cried from the terrible memory. "It's ok." He said as he walked out.
"Inuyasha, i'm so sorry. Just please wake up." Kagome begged as she held his hand in her's. "You said nothing can defeat you, you better have been telling the truth." She said softly as she cried. "I'll do anything if you just open your eyes Inuyasha." She said stroking his hand. "Come on, I need to see those amber eyes. Please Inuyasha, just open your eyes...for me." She choked. She rested her chin on the side bar of the bed as she held his hand. She stayed there quietly for about five minutes until her mom came into the room slowly and quietly.
"Kagome!" Her mom said once she saw her and she ran to her daughter as she stood hugging her.
"Mom, where's everyone else?" She asked right before they came into the room but in a more urgent way then her mother.
"What happend to you guys?" Sango asked and looked over at Inuyasha. "Oh my gosh...is he going to be ok?" She asked.
"I-I don't know." She said taking her seat again as Ms. Higurashi took out a hankerchief wiping blood from her face.
"Oh my gosh." Mrs. Kappei said seeing her son from her spot right next to Kagome. "Are you ok sweetheart?" She asked turning to Kagome trying to hold back her tears.
"Mhm." She said but started crying from the sad look his mom's eyes held.
"Don't cry sweetie." She told her as she rubbed her shoulder.
"Kagome what happend?" Her mom asked her.
"Some guy had a gun at the mall." Kagome told them not wanting to go into detail.
"Should we tell Miroku? He is his friend." Rin asked Sango.
"Ya your probably right." Sango said sadly as she pulled out her cell phone.
"Hello?" Miroku answered his phone. "SHIPPO THAT'S CHEATING!" He yelled on the other line.
"Miroku...it's Sango." She told him slowly.
"Sango? What's wrong you sound upset." He said.
"It's Inuyasha...you might want to come to the hospital." Sango told him sadly.
"Inuyasha? What happend? Is he ok?" Miroku asked.
"Well we don't know yet." Sango told him.
"Ok were coming, are you gonna be ok?" He asked.
"Ya, i'll be fine. I'm just worried about Kagome." She told him.
"Don't worry Sango, Inuyasha dosn't let anything keep him down. See you in a bit, bye." He told her and hung up.
"Are you ok Sango?" Rin asked.
"Ya...just, that was harder then I thought. Just thinking about Inuyasha's condition...you know, this past week we've pretty much all became friends. He even helped me and Kagome with skateboarding since he's in it too...him and Miroku. I just feel really bad now. It didn't really hit me of what kind of state he was in until I had to tell Miroku."
"Oh Sango it's ok...I didn't think about it either. Dammit your going to make me cry." Rin told her as they walked back to where everyone was.
"You guys maybe we should leave his mom alone for a bit." Ms. Higurashi said patting her daughters back.
"Ok...Mrs. Kappei i'm sure he'll be ok." Sango told her and gave her a quick hug.
"Ya, he's pretty strong." Rin told her doing the same thing.
"Thanks girls." She told them as they walked out.
"Come on Kagome." Ms. Higurashi said. Kagome tightened her grip on his hand then got up and walked to the door but took one more look at him and went to the waiting room with the others.
Kagome sat between Sango and Rin. "It was my fault this happend." Kagome said quietly.
"What are you talking about Kagome?" Rin asked.
"He was protecting me, and he was making sure I was ok when he got shot." Kagome said as tears started to fall once again.
"Well Inuyasha is quite fond of you, why wouldn't he protect you?" Sango asked her and hugged her friend.
"That's because we've been friends a long time. But he should have known he couldn't turn his back on him. I was just trying to get out of Hiten's grasp when I got shot and Inuyasha came to me after he punched him a couple of times." She said crying on Sango's shoulder.
"Sango!" Miroku yelled as him and Shippo ran down the hallway. She got up and Rin hugged Kagome next.
"Hey, your here." Sango said as they rushed over.
"Ya, how is he?" Shippo asked.
"We don't know yet, but he's unconcious right now." Rin told them.
"Kagome what happend to you?" Shippo asked her.
"Nothing, long story." She said and got up. "I'm going to get the doctor." She told them as she walked down the hall and came back with the doctor.
"Oh so everyone is here? Ok come with me." He told them as he led them into the room where Inuyasha was.
"What's wrong?" Mrs. Kappei asked as they all walked into the room.
"Nothing he's just going to tell us how Inuyasha is doing." Ms. Higurashi told her leading her to a chair at the side of the room.
"Yes, well he's been shot twice in the back and we've been succesful in removing the bullets but he's been out since he arrived, he has lost alot of blood and he's gone into a coma." He told them.
"He has? When will he wake up?" Mrs. Kappei asked.
"We've estimated that he'd be in it at the least just for a couple of days." He said.
"And the most?" Ms. Higurashi asked.
"Well at the most he will probably be in it for about two months, i'm sorry." He said sadly.
"Oh no, two months? Are you sure?" Kagome asked.
"Yes, i'm very sorry. And with you miss, we got the bullet out but it seemed to damage some tissue and burned through the muscle in your arm. We've already treated it, but you will have to treat it regularly so it can heal in about four to six weeks." He told her. She wasn't really listening as she kept looking at Inuyasha. The doctor walked out after giving her mom a perscription.
"What about his car?" Kagome asked not looking away from him.
"I'll get it after we leave. I can't stay as much as I really want to, I've missed way to many work days as it is with the move and all." Mrs. Kappei said.
"Izayoi, couldn't you say it's an emergency?" Ms. Higurashi asked her.
"No, because after my job moved us they said we only had a week to move and all and we ended up spending a month. I can't afford to miss more work. Plus I now have to pay the doctor bill." She told her.
"We could help you." Ms. Higurashi told her.
"Thanks but I still have to go." She said. "I can pay for it. But do you think you can take me to the mall to pick his car up?" She asked her. Ms. Higurashi nodded.
"Of course I can." She told her. Kagome reached into her pocket and got the keys that had fallen out of Inuyasha's pocket when she pulled his cell phone out earlier.
"Here's his keys." Kagome said and handed them to Mrs. Kappei.
"Thank you dear, I trust you will watch over my son." She said to Kagome and she just nodded.
"I take it your staying Kagome? There's nothing I can do to stop you anyways huh?" Ms. Higurashi asked.
"Ya, i'm staying." She told her.
"So am I." Sango said as she took a seat by the wall.
"Me too." Rin said sitting next to her.
"So are we." Shippo said leaning against the wall referring to him and Miroku.
"Wow Inuyasha has alot of good friends. Thank you guys. He is so lucky to have all of you." Mrs. Kappei said holding back tears.
"Thanks, cheer up Mrs. Kappei, Inuyasha will be fine. He's been through worse before, he pulls through everytime." Miroku told her.
"Thanks Miroku, I needed to hear that." She said hugging him before her and Ms. Higurashi left.
"I can't believe of all people it happend to Inuyasha." Rin said as she sat on the bed that was next to Inuyasha's.
"I know, the one that's cocky and stubborn as hell." Miroku said looking down.
"Oh shit what about work?" Sango asked looking over at Miroku.
"Oh ya, i'll go by there to leave a note." Miroku said walking to the door.
"I'll go too." Rin said following behind.
"What about Katsuki?" Shippo asked.
"That's why i'm leaving the note...and for the guy my dad hired...if he actually shows up for once that is." He said walking out with Rin.
"Kagome, are you going to be ok?" Shippo asked her. She was holding Inuyasha's hand and resting her chin on the side bed bar again.
"Ya, it dosn't hurt that much." She answered.
"No I mean you look upset, he's going to be ok you know." Shippo told her.
"Ya he's right." Sango said.
"I sure hope so. It's just...he looks like he's sleeping like any regular night...but the problem is I can't wake him up and all these machines that are connected to him and around him...I don't know." Kagome told them.
"Ya I get what you mean." Sango said sadly.
"What happend exactly, I heard he got shot twice in the back...but what happend?" Shippo asked.
"It was a fight. Inuyasha was trying to help me when the guy shot him." She said shakily. "I couldn't believe it was happening to him. He was facing me when he was telling me to stay...but didn't finish since he had gotten shot and he fell forward on me and then told me to run...then the guy came after me and I shot him in the arm and again in the stomach and I ran to Inuyasha, he grabbed my hand and...and asked if it was my first time to use a gun since I was shaking so much. Then he started coughing blood and he promised he couldn't be defeated." She said between sobs. "He tries to be all heroic but look at him." Kagome said as tears started to fall uncontrolably.
"Kagome Kagome calm down." Sango said running to her and hugging her. "Shhh...it's ok." She tried to comfort her.
"Ya Kagome, he'll be ok. I'm sorry I didn't mean to make you cry." Shippo said rubbing her back.
"But what if something bad happens?" She chocked out from all her crying.
"Nothing bad will happen. He'll be ok. I don't think he's ready to give up. I'm sure he wants to see you again as much as you do." Sango told her hugging her tightly holding back her tears that threatened to fall. She had never seen her friend so frightened and sad.
"Inuyasha can pull through, he's to stubborn...like Miroku said he's as stubborn as hell. He won't give up that easily." Shippo told her.
"Thanks guys." She said through her sobs. "You guys are the best." She said.
"Were always here for you Kagome." Sango told her.
"Ya." Shippo agreed.
"I'm going to go get some coffee." Sango said as she walked out. When she walked out and shut the door she leaned against it tilting her head back as tears fell from her eyes. "Inuyasha you better make it through this and fast. I don't think Kagome will last if you don't, I know you love her so hurry up and wake up so you can tell her." Sango said quietly and wiped her tears away as she walked to the cafeteria.
"I'm starving, want some food or something Kagome?" Shippo asked her.
"No thanks, i'm going to stay here." She told him from the same spot she was before.
"Ok, i'll be back in a bit." He told her as he left the room.
"Inuyasha, why do you make me go through this? If something happens to you I don't know what i'll do. You better wake up soon." She said as she lowered the side bar and lied her head on the bed still holding his hand. "Can you hear me Inuyasha? If you can I need you to wake up. I can't handle this. I need you here." She mumbled the last part as she drifted off to sleep.

"Do you think Kagome will make it through all this?" Shippo asked Sango as they sat at a table drinking coffee while Shippo ate too.
"I hope so, she's so upset right now....it's funny, earlier they were playing around messing with me and Rin since we were buckling our seatbelts because Kagome was driving. I saw Inuyasha smirk when he asked why we should be scared of her driving. He knows Kagome better then we do. And she smilied back." Sango told him.
"Ya it's wierd how that can happen, someone up there has a messed up sense of humor." Shippo said pointing up.
"Ya, ain't that the truth. But why Kagome? She's so nice and caring." Sango said just stirring her coffee and looking at it.
"Ya, it sucks." Shippo said starring at his food.
"Sango...how's Kagome?" Rin asked running inside through the front door.
"Oh hey, I don't know. She couldn't stop crying." Sango told her. "I guess we should head back up." She told them as Miroku walked in too.
"Ya...I think Kagome could really use support right now." Miroku said. 'Inuyasha you better be ok, you need to wake up and tell Kagome how you feel about her. I know you love her, just tell her. She loves you just as much. I think your the only one who dosn't see it, just look at her dumbass. Look at the love in her eyes when she looks at you. Just be ok Inuyasha.' Miroku thought as they walked upstairs.
They walked through the door and saw Kagome's head lying on the side of the bed...she was asleep.
"I guess she wore herself out from crying so much." Rin said.
"Looks that way. Well we better get some sleep too." Miroku told them.
"Ya, let's just pray Inuyasha wakes up soon...for Kagome's sake." Sango said as she tried to get comfortable in a chair.
"Ya and hope Inuyasha and Kagome admit there true feelings for each other." Shippo said but saw everyone look at him. "What? You guys know as well as I do that they like each other." He told them sitting in another chair.
"Ya your right but I didn't know you guys saw it too." Sango said.
"Ya, I thought only me and Sango thought so." Rin told them getting on the other bed.
"You have to be stupid not to notice." Shippo said back.
"Inuyasha hasn't noticed guys." Miroku stated.
"Wow...he really is dense." Rin said simply.
"I think he dosn't notice because he dosn't believe she likes him." Miroku told them looking at Sango.
"Well maybe he should tell her and let her tell him how she really feels." Sango said looking down blushing a bit.
"Uhh...riiight, well i'm going to sleep." Shippo said looking at the two.
"Ya same here, good night." Rin said as she lied down on the bed.
"Night." Sango said closing her eyes.
ITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITITIT
Final thought from Miroku:
"So...just tell her how he feels and see how she feels huh? Thanks for the advice Sango."
