Chapter 19: Contaminated

All she could make out was dim, distant voices, "Kagome! Kagome, what's wrong?" "Are you alright?" "Kagome!" "What happened?" "Oh my god! Somebody call the ambulance!"


Overall POV…

"Kagome!" Kurama called out desperately as she started to sway, Kurama jumped forward and caught her before she hit the ground, "What happened?"

"Oh my god! Somebody call the ambulance!" Keiko shouted.

"Kagome! Kagome!" Yusuke took her from Kurama and started to shake his cousin violently. The punk took of the outer coat of his tuxedo and placed her on the ground, checking her pulse, "Her heart's beating-"

Everyone let out a sigh of relief.

"-but she's not breathing…BREATHE! DAMMIT KAGOME! BREATHE!" He started shaking her again in panic.

Yukina shakily placed her hand on Yusuke's shoulder as a sign of comfort, "Ano…I-I think we need to do CPR or something…"

Hiei finally appeared after all the commotion. This was in an isolated area, so none of the other citizens knew what was happening at the moment.

"I don't know how to do this…CPR!" Sango cried out, waving her arms around frantically, "Help! Somebody help!"

"Kurama!" Keiko and Botan exclaimed spontaneously at the same time, "You took medical classes once…!"

Kuwabara shoved Yusuke off Kagome to make room for Kurama.

"Uh...oh!" He wiped the sweat off his forehead and panicking, checking her pulse. He pumped her chest several times before lowering his lips to hers. Freeze.

"What's wrong Kurama?" Miroku asked worriedly.

"She…her mouth smells like poison…"

"WHAT?"

"But she still needs air! Yusuke protested, "Or she'll die!"

Hesitating for a minute, Kurama decided to risk it, "Could somebody please get me a glass of water?"

Botan nodded and briskly ran off to find a source of water.

The fox turned towards Hiei, "Could you please dispose of the punch that Kagome drank?"

The fire/ice apparition just left, leaving them to assume that he had agreed.

"Alright…" Kurama took a deep breath as Botan reappeared with the clear liquid.

He pressed his lips to Kagome and slowly started to pump the air back into her body, the rest of the group watching with apprehension.

"Okay?" Sango nervously twiddled her thumbs as Kurama released himself from his position on the ground.

"She'll be find if we can get the poison out of her system" He answered breathlessly, taking the offered water. He sipped it, and then spat it out into the bushes.

"Is something wrong with the water?" Keiko asked worriedly.

Kurama wiped some water off his chin and took another sip, spitting that one out too.

"He's fine" Hiei stated bluntly, "He's just washing the poison out that was transferred"

Sango mock gasped, "Oh! This is the day! Hiei actually spoke more than 2 words!" This was sort of like a way that she showed she was relieved.

"Can we take her to the Reikai hospital?" Yusuke fretted, "The Ningenkai ones might raise questions"

"Good idea" Miroku stood up. (He was originally kneeling)

Botan watched as Kurama lifted Kagome into his arms while Yusuke slid his jacket on: being too rushed to bother to brush the dirt off, and then checked the area. Nobody else was here, "Alright" she created a portal and they all stepped in.


Koenma's Office...

"Hiya people! Whatcha doin' here?" Was the voice they were greeted to.

"What the hell?" Kuwabara and Yusuke exclaimed incredously, staring at the ditzy looking toddler.

"What the hell happened to him?"

Botan chuckled wryly, "After Kagome knocked some sense into him about his hidden, hormonal problems, and it seemed to trigger his more…childish side"

"You mean, more childish than usual," Yusuke snorted.

"We need Kagome to whack him again or else Reikai won't manage with a ditzy, drunk ruler.

They rushed to the hospital, where many attendants greeted them.

They just seemed to stare in worry as a cat youkai took out an x-ray machine and scanned her body, mixing numerous concoctions and taking several tests.

"Why do you think that a person would do this?" Yukina questioned.

"Well…I don't really know" Sango answered angrily, "Especially to Kagome too!"

"You said that Kagome was famous in that…Makai place, right?" Miroku asked.

The spirit detectives nodded in response.

"Well, Kagome always told me that no matter how famous you were, there was always be someone that was disagreeing to what you were doing or just plain, hated you…"

"Your point?" Hiei sighed. Sango jabbed him in the ribs for 'being rude' and he started twitching a bit.

"They would want to try and assassinate you then" Kurama replied bluntly, sinking deeper into the waiting room couch .

((Aka, Kennedy, Lenon…etc, etc.))

A few gasped in realization, "Somebody wants to kill Kagome?" Keiko questioned, horrified.

"It's possible…" He cast a worried glance at Kagome. Kurama sighed, 'And mother is expecting her over for dinner'

"So...is that the consequence of being famous?" Yukina closed her eyes and leaned back, sighing.

There was a sharp intake of breath and Kagome jolted upright.

"KAGOME!" Everyone yelled in surprise, shock, and relief. Hiei stood here, seemingly expressionless.

"Guys! I…can't…breathe!" Kagome gasped for air, gulping it down as soon as they stopped hugging.

"Sorry" the group smiled sheepishly.

After a few talks, and explanations, it was time to go home.

"Kagome, would you like to come over for dinner?" Kurama questioned before they set off.

"Oh! No, no, no…that'd be too much of a trouble…" Kagome waved her hands in a retaliating motion.

"It wouldn't be, really!" Kurama insisted.

"Alright…"


The Minamino Residence…

"Mother! I'm home!" Kurama called out, tossing the house keys onto it's designated hook on the wall.

"Suichi dear! Where's the girl?" Shiori squealed.

"Here mother…" Kurama sighed, shaking his head in amusement at his mother's eagerness.

Kagome bit her lip, nervous, but that all melted away when the cheery mother approached.

"Hello! You must be Kagome!" she smiled, "It's nice to meet you, I'm Shiori, Suichi's mom. You look wonderful!"

Kagome grinned back, "I'm Kagome! Thanks for inviting me over to dinner!"

Shiori leaned into Kagome's ear as Kurama took off his coat and begun to hang it up, "So…are you Suichi's girlfriend?"

Kagome blushed madly and Kurama raised a delicate eyebrow, wondering what the two had just exchanged.

"Well, come on" Shiori ushered them into the dining room, "Dinner's not going to eat itself! Take your fill!"

Wow, his mom sure is kind!


OKAY! Now…I just gotta get the Christmas part in and stuff like that… That part was the rest of the night…the next chapter will start at the next day. What did you think? Read and review onegai!
