chp 20

Kagome sighed, waiting in the spacious office of Dr. Suikeichi. She wrung her hands together, praying that this was a mistake somehow. She looked to see the door creek open, and saw the doctor walk in. She gave him her full attention as he spoke.

"Kagome, you have three options. One, abortion.."

"Never..."

"Two, pray nothing goes wrong with the birth..."

She stood silent, wating for the last option...

"Three, a host mother..."

She looked at him, begging him for more information. He looked at her, his soft brown eyes heavy with sadness.

"Kagome, this procedure to put the fetus in another mother is still very new to society. I have only heard of a few cases where it was even possible. You have to have someone with your same blood, and who's body is willing to accept the child. And that is only if the fetus survives the operation..."

Kagome bit her lip, unsure of what to say...

"Kagome, you have cancer. You could die, and the last thing you want to do is give up on someone you love. At all costs, do not let that baby die."

"I know..."

"About your tumor, we've decided on giving you pills to hopefully stall the growth long enough to give you time to have the baby. If they don't, then we have to have emergency surgey to remove as much of it as we can..."

"I understand, I don't need to be told the bad parts..."

"Here.."

He handed her an orange bottle of large white pills,"Take one of these each day."

She nodded, giving a sad smile. She hated herself for submitting to this, but what could she do. She had to do everything to protect this baby inside her. She had to put this child first, because thats what she would have done in any other circumstance. Her heart grew tender, and she unconsciously place her palm on her abdomen.

She whispered to herself,"I will protect you..."

Inuyasha fought somemore simluations in the training area. His opponents were too easy, far too easy. He screamed at the operator to give him the strongest oppenent possible, but he was far to easy by Inuyasha's standards. He growled and told them to send in a death row victim. Maybe, a real person might be worth his time...

He was given a man by the name of Musu, a human buddist monk. He was convisted of killing an innocent woman, and then her child Then to top off his horrendous deeds, he raped both bodies. He was a twisted son of a bitch, and Inuyasha was glad to kill him.

"When ever you're ready..." Musu told him...

The green light went off and both the men attacked each other. Musu used his staff to strike against the Tetsusaiga, making it vibrate like a music fork. Inuyasha blocked each savage attack, trying to figure out this guys motives. Why was he pulverising the Tetsusaiga?

"You're nothing without that fang, are you now?"

He continued to strike at the sword, bending the blade a bit more with each strike. Inuyasha watched as his hand trnasformed into a scorpion's claw, reaching out to the Tetsusaiga and grabbing the blade. He ground his teeth, trying to find a way to protect his sword and himself at the same time. He growled, and threw his blade aside, as if daring him to attack him even if he was empty handed.

"You are a brave one, to throw away your most valuable tool..."

"Go to hell, I don't need that sword to defeat someone like you!"

"Then you'll pay the price for your ignorance!"

He sent a sutra towards him, that succeeded in taping itself to him. He became paralyzed instantly. He fell to his knees, watchign at the monk brought down his staff to smash the Tetsusaiga. He didn't even bother with Inuyasha, he wanted to break the sword all along...

"Well, its been fun Inuyasha..."

"Damn you.."

He smiled, his eyes glowing with malicious thoughts..

Inuyasha jumped up, refusing to degrate himself to this. He reached out at the monk, squeezing his neck. He felt his fingernails dig into his knuckles, but he just smiled. He squeezed tighter, watching his face turn plum purple. Finally he became limp, and Inuyasha snapped his neck.

"I'll break your neck, for you breaking my sword..."

He looked at the broken sword, the dozen or so pieces scattered about in a jumble. He felt a little part of himself die when he saw the broken pieces...

Now how would he defeat Narkau?

He gathered the pieces, and took them to Sesshomaru. He looked at him, glaring at him...

"HOW COULD YOU!"

Sesshomaru yelled at him, his eyes turning red.

"THAT WAS YOUR FATHER'S SWORD! MY FATHER'S SWORD! That was one of the ONLY things that wasn't hidden away from us!"

"Shut up, just tell me where to go to get it fixed..."

"I DON"T THINK IT CAN BE!"

"Just tell me, I know you would know."

Sesshomaru slammed his fist down on the table, trying to regain himself. He bit his lip, and squeezed his eyes together. He glared at Inuyasha with his monotoned cold eyes, and finally spoke to him.

"His name is Totosai. He lives outside the city, in a cave on the mountain. He'll know who you are, Tetsusaiga was his best work..."

Inuyasha looked at his eyes, feeling his heart go icy from his cold glare. He threw the pieces in a travel bag, zipping it up with a quick flick of his wrist. He looked up, not believing that this had happened to him. He threw the bag over her shoulder, feeling the sharp pieces dig into his back.

I hope they don't break this fabric...

He walked into the stainless steel room that held his custom made car. He reached into his back pocket, pulling out his key ring. He fiddled around with it for a sec, and finally found the sleek siver key. He walked up to his sports car, unlocked the doors, and plopped himself right down into the front seat.

The usual mechanical woman's voice went,"Welcome, Silver Scar."

"Hello Silver Car..."

"Hah, hah, don't jest. I am named Tiffany200."

"Ok Tiffany, where can I find Totosai, the sword builder."

Her lights began to bleep, and she began processing his words. After a few seconds of this, she finally came to a screeching hault and spoke,"Latitude 780, longituge 96, are you ready sir?"

"As ready as I am to kill Naraku..."

"Hah, hah, sir you are funny..."

The car's engine seemed to generate a power of its own. The rumble of the engine, the smell of the exhaust, the rush of the dust behind them...

It was pretty awesome in its own defense...
