"Kagome... Wake up sweetie we need to go to the doctor"

"What? I thought we were done with that?" kagome mumbled half asleep slightly annoyed

"Is inuyasha back yet?" kagome asked

"No not yet get dressed honey"

I wonder what's taking inuyasha so long kagome thought to herself as she got dressed hopefully there isn't trouble in the feudal era. I'd feel awful if there was and I couldn't help him.

As her car approached the hospital kagome got a terrible sense of foreboding in her stomach. As if she felt nothing was ever going to be the same again. As they stepped into the room with Doctor Suzuki in it her worst fears were conformed.

"hi kagome how are you feeling today?" doctor Suzuki asked and tried to smile sweetly though her eyes showed pity something kagome hadn't seen before which scared her even more

"ok I guess.." doctor Suzuki continued on before kagome could continue talking

"Kagome… as you know we called you back because we found out some things from your blood test that aren't what we expected to find"

Kagome was beginning to get scared now. Though she didn't know a lot about hospitals, she knew that those sentences weren't good

"Kagome we got some unexpected results from your tests dealing with blood work."

"umm ok…?" Kagome stifled out those words some how. Each minute of not knowing what was going on with her body she found it harder and harder to stay calm.

Doctor's Suzuki's face and tone of voice no changed from sweet to very stern and grim. This scared Kagome the most of all.

"Kagome you look like a strong girl so I'm just going to go out on a limb and say it. You have leukemia..."

"Leukemia!" this was all kagome was able to say on the outside. On the inside her mind was racing a mile a minute

What leukemia? Am I going to die? What about the Shikon-no-tama? And Inuyasha? Oh my god! Inuyasha...

though Doctor Suzuki continued talking about Leukimia , treatments and statistics Kagome was not able to listen. She was already crying uncontrollably holding on to her mother for dear life.

As the Higurashi's drove back to their house. Inuyasha now climbed out of the well with a basket of goods in his hand.


AN: ok sooo what do ya think? i know the way Doctor Suzuki handled telling Kagome that she has leukimia isn't SOP (standard operating procedures) and she probably would get fired by telling a patient she has leukimia in that way but honestly i needed to speed things up so i took artistic liscence there. anyhow hopefully more to come soon.
