Ending of last chapter:

Inuyasha and the rest followed her, they walked up to a SUV that had to rows of seats, plus the driver and other passengers. Miroku and Sango got into the back row of seats and Inuyasha and Kagome got into the front row. Kirara jumped back into Sango's lap, and curled up to have a nap. The lady that lead them to the vehicle got into the driver seat and they headed for the hospital.

Chapter 13 Explanations

When Kagome arrived at the hospital she was wheeled right into the energy room. Inuyasha tried to follow but was stopped at the door. He was told to go wait in the waiting room until Kagome was brought to her room. They were in the demon part of the hospital like before and Inuyasha was just as nervous as the last time he was there. This was the second time in more then a week he had been there. Miroku and Sango just stood in the hallway amazed at what they saw, it was nothing like they had ever seen. Over the front desk there was a sign that read in colourful letters "December 16, 9 days until Christmas". Miroku, Sango and Inuyasha were all taken to be examined. Sango and Miroku were fine, but Inuyasha had two broken ribs, and he needed to take medication to counters any side affects from injections that Ukaran have given him.

After all that, Inuyasha told Miroku and Sango to follow him to the waiting room. He showed them how to use the T.V and then he sat down himself to think. Kagome's mother had been waiting at the hospital, she had taken Kirara off Sango's hands while they were been looked over. Now she was talking to Miroku and Sango about the nights events. It was early morning and there was very little movement in the hospital. Only the occasional nurse here or there, but that was about it. They waited almost three hours and still no news about Kagome. Inuyasha started to get worried.

"Hello Inuyasha." Inuyasha looked up and saw Aalyah and Andrea standing in the door way. Both had showered and changed into clean clothes. They walked in and shut the door.

"Hi." He said coldly.

"Hello Sango, Miroku and Margaret. Its nice to see you again." Said both girls. Each said hello back and went back to being quiet.

"Inuyasha we're sorry about what had happened to Kagome." Andrea said.

"Don't be sorry girls it wasn't your fault. I should have protected Kagome better then what I did."

"Inuyasha we have to tell you something." Aalyah said timidly.

"This whole thing is kind of our fault." Andrea said.

"What?" Inuyasha looked into both of the girls eyes and saw that they looked very sorry for something. By now Miroku, Sango and Margaret were listening.

"You see we worked with Ukaran in Canada, before we were asked to come to Japan, he was our assistant." Aalyah said.

"Go on." Inuyasha said.

"Well during our studies, Andrea and I began to experiment with different incantations, ones that could be used to put a patient to sleep instantly, and it would be strong enough to use on a demon. We read some scrolls that were handed down in Andreas family for generations, most of it was a theory at first, but soon we started to experiment. We were able to make three new medications that could be used to put any demon to sleep, but we didn't know how long they would last or what effect they would have on a demon. This was all while we were in nursing school." Aalyah said.

"So after we got out of nursing school we brought the different medications to a board of highly trained doctors and asked for funding for research, Dr. Sesshomaru was on this board, and we got the funding." Andrea looked at the floor.

"But soon after we started to experiment with the new medications, Ukaran turned on us and took off with everything, all our research, incantations, and test subjects, but he forgot one main thing. They only thing that was needed to make the medications last for a long period of time." Aalyah said.

"What was that?" Inuyasha asked.

"Kagome's blood." Aalyah told him.

"What? Why would he need Kagome's blood?"

"To make our medications work properly you needed a small drop of a full powered Miko's blood, and she is the only one left in the world. There are people who have Miko powers but she is the one who is a true, pure hearted Miko." Andrea answered him.

"How did you find this out?" Kagome's mother asked.

"Well you see we were experimenting with everything in university, one of our friends was a true Miko and we used her blood in one of our experiments. It was her idea, to see how, and what kind of affect it would have. She was really the third partner in our group, but one night she caught Ukaran stealing our experiments, to sell on the black market and she tired to stop him. He tortured her, raped her and then he murdered her. He didn't know that he needed her for the final stage in our experiments. She was our best friend, and he took her away from us." Aalyah looked into Inuyasha's eyes.

"But how would he have kept us unconscious for so long with out Kagome's blood?" Inuyasha asked.

"Well he could have given you multiple injections or he could have taken some of Kagome's blood right after the first bit of powder was thrown at you." Aalyah said.

"So that's where all the powders and injections came from, but this was all after he met Kagome, what happened to her ten years ago?" Inuyasha wondered out loud.

"Inuyasha, that I could answer, but I think it would be best for Kagome to tell you." Kagome's mother said.

"So why are you now in Japan?" Sango asked.

"Well there are some reasons for that...lets see:
1) We are here to continue our research under the watchful eye of Dr. Sesshomaru. Plus he is helping us with it, and making sure that it is kept safe.
2) We were asked to be Dr. Sesshomaro's personals nurses, and he is the best doctor in all Japan. So, who would give that up.
3) We would get paid more money working here in Japan then in Canada
4) Ukaran was going to track us down and kills us anyway. That's what the Centre told us.
5) To keep up our training. We both are in Karate and are second degree black belts. The highest ranking black belt lives here in Japan so we train with him. We are also experts in sword welding.
6) We are two of the best nurses in Canada, even tough we are only young. Both of us started training to be nurses at the age of 16. That's when we finished high school." Andrea listed off their reasons.

"Oh sounds like you could have gone any where in the world. Plus you almost had no choice from the sounds of it but to come here." Miroku said.

"No we had a choice but to tell you the truth we both wanted to come here. Japan is such a beautiful place who wouldn't want to live here." Aalyah said.

"She's mostly talking about how hot the boys are here." Andrea said.
"Who is the hottest?" Sesshomaru said as he walked in through the door.

"Ahh." Was all Aalyah could get out as her face started to turn beet red.

"Inuyasha if you would like to see Kagome see is in room 214B. But before you get up and go running off to her, let me tell you about her injuries. Now she had many little cuts and bruises that will heal in a couple of days, so you don't have to worry about them. She also has a cut on her stomach, it wasn't major but she will need to clean it everyday to make sure it doesn't get infected. She was very lucky she had over 10 blows to her rib cage, but she only has 3 bruised ribs. Last her face is a bit tender and swollen so I advise you to not say anything on how bad she looks." Sesshomaru finished.

"Ok." With that Inuyasha ran out of the room straight to Kagome's room.

"Miroku, Sango how about we go get something warm to drink, and then we will go visit Kagome. I think her and Inuyasha need some time to talk, Kagome's mother said."

"Sure, why not." With that the three left.

"Andrea, Aalyah I am sure you have explained everything to Inuyasha and Kagome's family."

"Yes sir." they answered in unison.

"Good, I have two people I would like you to meet." Sesshomaru said as he walked out the door.

He then came back with two men around the same age as Aalyah and Andrea. The first guy had white hair like Sesshomaru, it was tied back into a low ponytail, it was about the lengths of Inuyashas, he was 6'3, and had brown eyes. He wore a pair of black jeans, and a red t-shirt. The second guy that came in had jet black hair that reached his lower back, he was 6'3, and had gold coloured eyes. He had on a pair of dark blue jeans, but he had on white shirt. Both were very muscular, and didn't mind letting the whole world know it. They both looked Aalyah and Andrea up and down and nodded, as if in approval.

"Andrea, Aalyah this is my son Jordan and his friend Marcus. Jordan and Marcus these are my two personal assistants."

"Hey." Jordan said, as he walked forwarded and shook both girls hands.

"Hi." Marcus said as he did the same.

"Now I must be on my way, I have to much work to do to be standing around here making introductions. I will see you two in three days."

"Ah Dr. Sesshomaru we have a shift tomorrow morning!" Aalyah said confused.

"Yes but the Centre has decided to give you three days off for what you did tonight. So I will see you in three days." Sesshomaru said as he walked out the door.

"Andrea what are we going to do with three days off ?" Andrea asked as she winked at Aalyah.

"I don't know maybe if we had a couple of guys to help fill our time we wont have to be too bored." Aalyah said with a devilish grin.

"Well I am sure Marcus and I can provide some help to that little problem." Jordan said.

"Why don't we go get some coffee, and talk for a little while." Marcus suggested.

"I like the sound of that, what about you Aalyah?"

"Sounds perfect." The group walked out of the waiting room, and towards the cafeteria.

Mean while

Inuyasha ran through the hospital looking for room 214B, he almost ran into a group of nurses that were getting ready to change for the morning shifts. Other then that, there were very little people in the halls.

When Inuyasha finally found Kagome's room, he wished he had taken the time to ask Sesshomaru how to get there in the first place. But it didn't really matter now. Inuyasha opened the door to Kagome's room, he peaked his head inside, and then walked in. Kagome was laying on her bed, her eyes were closed. He looked at Kagome, the left side of her face was swollen, and she had a cut on her lip. The blankets on her bed were only pulled up to her waist.

"I look like crap don't I?" Inuyasha jumped at the sound of Kagome's voice.

"Kagome you don't look like crap, you look beautiful. You always look beautiful."

"Thanks Inuyasha. Do you want to lie down with me?"

"Why wouldn't I?" Inuyasha climbed into the bed with Kagome but he was careful not to hurt her.

"I see we match!" Kagome said, as she lifted Inuyasha's shirt to see how bad his wounds were. Inuyasha looked down and saw they both had bandages on their stomachs.

"You're always worried about someone else aren't you." Inuyasha said.

"Can't I be worried about my boyfriend?" Kagome's replied.

"What ever makes you happy Kagome. How long have you been out of surgery?" Inuyasha asked.

"About an hour."

"Sesshomaru only came and told me that you were out about 10 minutes ago."

"He knew that you would come rushing to me, so he wanted me to get some rest first." Kagome said.

"I can't wait to get my hands on him, he doesn't even trust me with my own girl friend. I would have let you rest."

"Inuyasha, he knew that I wouldn't rest if I knew you were in the room. To tell you the truth I only got a few minutes of sleep and then I was to excited to see you again to sleep any more." Kagome laughed a little.

"Even laughing hurts." She said.

"Kagome what happened before with Ukaran?" Inuyasha came right out and asked. He had to know, he needed to know.

"I was waiting for this question, Inuyasha to tell you the truth I didn't even remember until yesterday. Ten years ago Ukaran was good friends with my father. At first he would play with me, but then he started to abuse me. He would slap and punch me, but after he did, he would say he was sorry, and the he would put this cream on the spot that he hit and it wouldn't show a mark, but I could still feel it there. This went on for about two or three months, but one night he kidnapped me, and took me the building that we were held in. He kept me there for three days, every day he would beat me for hours, and hours. This time, did he didn't bother to try and heal my wounds. He would tell me that my family didn't want me, and that now he was the only person I had. He would say when I was old enough I would become his wife and have his children. He was crazy, I was only 8, who tells a 8 year old that you are going to marry them." Kagome was crying a little.

"Kagome if you can't tell me any more you don't have to tell me." Inuyasha said softly.

"No I'm fine." Kagome to a deep breathe and began again. "Then, the last night I was there, Ukaran was going to preform a weird ceremony on me. He was going to take a knife, carve his name onto my stomach, along with me having to bite his neck and then we would have to drink each others blood. Right when he was going to start, my father came through the door. They fought, then I saw one of Ukaran goons coming from behind my father, and that's when I released my full Miko powers on them all. Except for my father, he wasn't hurt but everyone else was, and he came over to me and hugged me. After that I don't remember anything else but waking up in the hospital." Tears were now streaming down Kagome's face.

"Its ok Kagome." Inuyasha whispered, and he hugged her.

"Inuyasha that man...he killed my father. He killed my father and I couldn't do anything about it...I was to afraid to do anything, its all my fault."

"No it not your fault, Kagome." Kagome and Inuyasha laid there for a while then a knock came on the door.

"Any visitors aloud in." Kagome knew that voice it was Sango's.

"Of course." Kagome shrilled. Inuyasha got down off the bed and sat by Kagome holding her hand. He wasn't sure how they would react if they saw him and Kagome lying together, and he really didn't feel like he want to find out today.

Sango, Miroku, Mrs. Higurashi, Sesshomaru, Aalyah, Andrea, and two guys Kagome didn't know, soon came into the room. Sango ran over to her friend and gave her a hug. Kagome let go of Inuyasha's hand.

"Sango not so hard." Kagome said, while starting to giggle a little.

"Kagome I was so worried about you!" Sango said as she let go of Kagome. Inuyasha wrapped his hand back around Kagome's.

"I was worried about you to Sango."

"Good morning Kagome." Miroku said.

"Hey guys." Kagome said brightly, as she turned to the rest of the group.

"How are you feeling Kagome?" Mrs. Higurashi asked.

"Not bad mom, only for I feel like a mountain has been dropped on me."

"You would after all the injuries you had." Sesshomaru said.

"Sango, Miroku I can't believe you're here. My plan worked." Kagome said.

"Kagome to tell you the truth, I thought that maybe you had gone mad or something, but we're here." Miroku said.

"It took me awhile to really understand how you guys would be able to travel through the well, and I still am not sure I completely understand how the well works." Kagome said.

"I don't think we will ever understand it." Inuyasha spoke for the first time since the group entered the room.

"Inuyasha, for a second there, I thought a cat had your tongue." Sesshomaru said.

"Whatever." Inuyasha was not going to get into a fight with his brother while Kagome was around. He didn't want to upset her.

"Now Kagome, and Inuyasha I would like you to meet my son Jordan, and his friend Marcus. They both will be working on your case, so you will probably being seeing them a lot over the next two weeks." Sesshomaru said. Inuyasha nodded his head at the two.

"Hello Kagome." Jordan said as he walked forward to shake Kagome's hand.

"Hi Kagome." Marcus said as he also shook Kagome's hand. They were both about to shake Inuyasha's hand, but Inuyasha nodded his head towards the two in a sign of hello.

"Hello Jordan, and Marcus. Wait what do you mean by 2 weeks?" Kagome asked.

"Well there is a case involving the Center so that means you have to stay here at the hospital or at your home for two weeks we will have agents assigned to you during that time." Jordan said.

"Sesshomaru you know as well as I know that I can't stay here for two weeks. You have to tell them I can't, you have to do something." Kagome said sternly.

"Kagome I am not allowing you go back to Inuyasha's era for two weeks. Your body has taken a beating and I cannot let you subject it to further damage. You will stay here or at your home for two weeks not a day less." Sesshomaru said calmly.

"But."

"Kagome listen to Sesshomaru, he's your doctor. What he says goes." Inuyasha said.

"Now that that's settled, you boys get out so we can have some girl talk ok." Andrea said.

"I think that is a great idea Andrea, now boys out you go." Aalyah said.

"Yes, I think that's just what you need Kagome." Sango said.

"Now why don't you guys go get something to eat." Mrs. Higurashi.
Inuyasha gave Kagome's hand a squeeze and then he got up to leave, but before he left Kagome mouthed the words we'll talk later .

"Now Inuyasha keep Miroku out of trouble." Sango shouted as she closed the door behind the

boys.

"So how about I take you guys to the best breakfast bar in all Tokyo." Marcus said, as they walked towards the elevator.

"Marcus I think we need to get some new clothes for this guy first." Jordan said, as he pointed at Miroku. (They both met Miroku in the caf.)

"Miroku follow me and we will go to my office to find you something." Sesshomaru said.

"No need for that dad I have something right here." Jordan said. Marcus handed him his back pack and he pulled out a pair of blue jeans, a dark purple shirt, a pair of black sneakers and a dark blue winter jacket.

"We are always prepared when we are on a case. You never know when you might need a change of clothing." Marcus said.

"Inuyasha do you have a winter coat with you?" Jordan asked.

"No its at Kagome house." Inuyasha replied.

"Well you can use my extra one." Marcus handed Inuyasha a red winter coat.

"There's a bathroom over there Miroku where you can change." Jordan pointed to a door.

Miroku looked at Inuyasha who nodded his head, and then he went in. He walked back out with all his clothes on right, Inuyasha was surprised that he didn't have much trouble with it all. They walked out of the hospital into the cold morning air, and walked a couple of blocks towards the down town area. They turned down another street and then Marcus pointed to a bar not to far ahead of them. As they walked into the bar, they noticed there were a lot of people there considering the time of the day. A line was forming at the front of it with people waiting to be seated. Marcus walked over to a girl and spoke to her for a second and then they were seated right away. They were handed menus, and the lady walked away.

"So Marcus how did you find this place?" Miroku asked.

"Well its simple, I own this place. My sisters Jean and Laura run the place for me."

"You will get the best streak and eggs in all Tokyo here." Jordan said.

"So boys what will it be?" A waitress came over to take there order.

"Cynthia, I think we will have five steak and eggs, and 5 beers."

"How do ye all like your eggs and steak?" Cynthia asked.

"Rare, and easy over." Said Sesshomaru.

"Umm I will have the same." Inuyasha said.

"Cynt I would like mine medium rare, and easy over." Jordan said.

"Same here." Miroku said. He had no clue what was going on."

"Let me guess Marcus well done, and easy over eggs." Cynthia said.

"I swear Cynt you know me like I know myself." Marcus said as Cynthia walked away.

Back at the hospital the girls were well into conversation about well everything. Kagome told them all about school and how Hojo wouldn't get a hint. Sango wanted to tell them all about her and Miroku but until Naraku was defected it was to dangerous for anyone to know.

"Guess what Kagome, me and Aalyah have dates for tonight." Andrea said.

"Who?" Kagome asked.

"Jordan and Marcus. Aalyah is going out with Jordan, and Marcus is going out with me." Andrea replied.

"That's wicked." Kagome said.

"So Kagome I saw that you and Inuyasha were holding hands." Aalyah said.

"Ya does that mean you two are together?" Andrea asked.Her andAalyahboth knew the answer to the questionbut they wanted to have some fun, and see what Kagome would say.

"Well, I, umm." Kagome didn't know how to answer this one. She wasn't sure what to say. Her and Inuyasha never really talked about if they were going to tell Sango and Miroku, so she was in some deep water now.

A/n I hoped you all like this chapter I decided to end it here. A bit of suspense fo you all. Anyway read and review. Until next time.

Later Days!
