chp 18
A/n: Ok just to note, for those who think Kagome is pregnant, you're wrong. Its close...but a little off...
Chp 18(you'll find out this chapter)
Kagome wringed the hem of her skirt. She was waiting outside the doctor's office. She was shaking with fear, completely afriad of these results...
"Higurashi Kagome, the doctor will see you now."
She looked over at a nurse with a clipboard, smiling warmly. Kagome picked up her purse and walked over to the door, looing for her doctor's room number. She walked down a narrow hallway, painted in a baby blue. She supposed it was meant to sooth people, but the knot in her stomach refused to be unnerved. She caught the number, and took a deep breath.
She opened the stainless steel door, and walked in. She sat on the examining table, her head bent watching the floor. She felt like a child, with her legs dangling, swinging them back and forth. She closed her eyes, praying it was a mistake...
"Ms. Higurashi..."
A man in a white lab coat came in, his soft gray hair combed over to one side. His old face worn with sadness, his soft brown eyes teary and unmistakable filled with regret.
"Your tests results have come back."
"And..."
"Your suspicions were correct..."
"So..."
"You have a tumor in your brain, and its progress is progressing rapidly. If we don't start treatment soon, you and the fetus will die."
She knelt her head, tears coming to her eyes. The doctor leaned over and put his arms around her.
"The baby has a 40 chance of survival with the treatment."
"I don't know how to tell the father..."
"Does he love you?"
"Yes, I'm sure of it."
"He will understand your decision then."
"I don't want to die..."
"I will do all in my power to prevent that..."
"Is there any other option? Any..."
"Only one, but it is almost impossible..."
"Please tell me, I'm desperate."
"Remove the fetus, and let it grow in another's body. Then when it is born, you take it. I've heard it done, and the fetus developed into a healthy baby. If you deem that to be a more suitable option..."
"Let me talk to Inuyasha..."
"Yes, I was about to suggest that..."
Dear God...please give me strength...

Inuyasha swooped into Kagome's window. He wiped off the make-up and looked for the spare change of clothes he had left. He found them on the table, neatly folded. He changed, and looked around wondering where she was. He hopped onto the couch, and watched some t.v...
Suddenly he heard the door click, and the knob turn. He jumped up, and saw Kagome walk in. He took in a sigh of relief, and smiled.
"Hey..."
She merely gave him a look, and turned away. She faced the wall...
"Kagome what's wrong?"
She continued to face the wall, her hand on it for support. She was shaking...crying.
"Kagome..."
He wrapped his arms around her, but she ducked and ran away. She slammed the door, and locked it. He pounded on the door, listenign to her sobs on the inside. It broke his heart and he had to know what was wrong...
"Kagome! What's going on!"
"Just go away!"
"Did I do something wrong?"
"No..."
"Then why can't you talk to me?"
He took a claw and wiggled it around in the lock. He heard the door click, and he wrestled her to the floor. She tried to wriggle out of his grasp, but he was too heavy for her. He clasped his hands around her wrists, so she couldn't slap him or something, and used his knees to lock her legs in place.
"LEMME GO!"
"No! You wouldn't tell me on your own, now I'm forcing you!"
"LEMME GO AND I'LL TELL YOU!"
He unwrapped her wrists, and stared at her. She bit her lip, and went for his arms, needing to be held. She sobbed into his chest, crying uncontrollably. She trembled in his arms, her tears staining his shirt. He stroked her hair, and knelt his head on the top of her's. She clung to him, unable to let go.
She continued liks this for what seemed like forever. He took her shoulder's and ripped her away from his chest. She dared not to look into his eyes, and looked away. He grasped her chin, making her look straight at him. Her lip quivered, and tears formed in her eyes...
"Kagome...please I need to know..."
She nodded, and tried to redeem herself. She took in steady deep breaths, trying to calm down enough to speak.
"I went to the doctors..."
His whole body stopped moving...even his heart skipped a beat. Doctor's were never good...
"I have a tumor in my head..."
"Is it cancerous?"
"Yes..."
His eyes shot open, and a shock of pain ran through his heart. He slowly shook his head, then he was rapidly rockign his head. He screamed, "No...NO!" He grasped her closer, as if he'd never let her go. He felt the tears begin to fall, and immediately squeezed them shut.
"God...no..."
He squeezed his eyes, feeling the tears somehow get through.
"Inuyasha..."
"No...no...not you, not you..."
She felt herself die, unable to find the strength to tell him her horrid secret. She leaned up close to him, chiking on her word. She whispered close into his ear,"I'm pregnant too..."
He felt his whole world crash land. He shook with tears, gasping for breath. He squeezed her, not even considering she was telling the truth.
"No...Kagome...stop lieing..."
"Inuyasha..."
"STOP RIGHT NOW!"
She sniffled, tears running down her face as well. He felt his lower lip quiver. He knelt his head to her's, feeling her face. He wiped the tears away. His hand trembled, wiping the ever flowing tears. He gave up trying to make them all leave, and wraped his arms around her, pulling her into his chest.
"Kagome...you can't leave me..."
Her voice quivered, the pain of the subject was overbearing to her heart,"I have two choices...To either let the baby grow inside me at a 40 chance of survival. Or have the baby surgically removed and put into a host mother..."
"Do you want this baby Kagome?"
"Do you?"
"Of course...anything we created means more to me than my own life..but so does your's..."
"What should we do?"
"What are the odds on a host mother?"
"I don't know..."
He looked up at the ceiling, blinking back tears.
"What are the best odds for you?"
"A host mother..."
"Then that's what we'll do..."
"I need surgery withing the next week..."
"Then lets go as soon as possible.."
"No, just me..."
"NO! I will be there for you, I am going to go with you."
"Inuyasha, Naraku's coming out of hiding soon...you need to protect the people."
"NO! I need to protect you!"
"There's nothing you can do for me! I'm a broken human, I might not even survive this cancer, and if I die there's nothing you can do!"
"SO I'M SUPPOSED TO SIT BY AND WATCH YOU FIGHT THIS ALONE!"
"No...but you can't always be there.."
"Kagome...I will always be there for you, never think other wise..."
"I love you..."
"I love you more..."
He leaned her chin up, and captured her quivering lips, their kisses salty with tears...

"Where is this Silver Scar, he'd better be cute for all this trouble Naraku is putting us through for him..."
"Who cares! Let's just get him over with."
The squat man pulled out a bamboo holder of poison, giving Jyakotsu a mask to filter the poison. He smiled, and tied it behind his head.
"How will we find him," Mukotsu asked.
"He'll come to us..."
Jyakotsu pulled out a silver blade, and entered the main street of the city...
"YOO HOO! Silver Scar!"
He waved his arms frantically, and smiled.
"Good...no one to save the innocent..." He pulled his arm back, ready to slash his sword through the air. Ready to taste blood again...

Please don't kill me, please!
Please!
I do beg of you not to flame me, because seriously thats just not cool (even though I have awesome reviewers who are usually cool about this...when they REVIEW!)
Ok I've seriosuly been cool about this, but I have been getting only half my usual amounts of reviews! For about 3 chapters now, can people please just tell me if they are that bad? How can I improve my writing so that people will review?
If you have this information...please tell me. Maybe I dunno about it...
REVIEW!
Sorry, now I sound like a big head... Sorry, but it needed to be said...again...
I hope you liked this chapter(writing wise, not...the cancer/pregnancy/host mother. And yes people can really transfer an egg from on woman's body into another. Its been done, I read it in reader's digest.
PLEASE REVIEW! PLEASE! (see I'm back to like begging on my knees...)
