I do not own Inuyasha and I don't own none of the character so tears fall from stories so great even if you don't own them you love them like faith.

How could this happen, why wasn't I there, I promised to protect you but I didn't, it's like all I said to you was a lie that I knew would make you cry. I wanted you to tell me who did this to you now but all you can say is that it won't help.

'I'm just trying to help you but everything I do comes out wrong. If only I could change it and make it all well.

Thought Inuyasha as he walked to the waiting room where Kagome's family rested. But as he looked around he was still yet to see Sota who had ran out feeling as if it was his fault but it's not, because the only person they should be blaming here is me.

(Back to Kagome's room)

After the doctor had left they said I'd have to stay longer because I'm getting worse.

Why did this have to happen to me what did I do?

(You went out with him) said a voice in Kagome's mind that made her grab her head in anger.

(It's not my fault I didn't know) said Kagome to the voice as she kept a tight grip to her head I hopes that the voice wouldn't speak.

(You should have listen to Inuyasha instead of trying to make him jealous) said the voice that told the truth that it was her fault because she only did it to make Inuyasha mad and jealous but instead she was hurt for her stupid and foolish plan.

Inuyasha please forgive me I didn't mean to cause you pain and for what I did to make you mad. I deserve it and I should have had something worst since we first met I hid my feeling and tried to make you feel…

Thought Kagome but stopped as she heard her room door open and someone walked in. At first it looked like sota except he was a little taller. As Kagome stared at the figure coming into her slightly dark room her face then lit up with fright and fear as the figure gave her a wicked smile.

(Back to Inuyasha)

Who did this to Kagome and why

Thought Inuyasha as he walked away from the waiting room looking for the run away Sota.

It couldn't be Naraku I didn't smell his scent on her…but I did smell light death on her.

Inuyasha continue to look for sota and think of Kagome's new problem besides him.

If I had never met her maybe this wouldn't have happen…maybe this

At that very moment Inuyasha's trail of thoughts stopped at the light sound of Kagome's whimpers and fear ran through his ears.

Kagome

(Back to Kagome)

'Please leave' said Kagome softly with fear as she watched Hojo walk closer to the bed with the same evil as he had that night. 'Miss Kagome it's nice to see you again so did you have fun last night' asked Hojo as he placed a red rose on Kagome's bed.

'Would you like for me to get water for that flower so it won't die and turn dry red like your blood did' said Hojo as he walked to the small sink in Kagome's room and filled a small cup up with water. 'Why did you…you' said Kagome but her hidden tears just started to flow once again down her now pale skin.

'Huh…oh you mean our little get together after our date…I didn't know you were like that Kagome I rather had waited till I was married but I do love you and would do anything for you or like you say to you' Hojo then placed the cup on the table next to Kagome and placed the flower inside.

'Miss Kagome you know what red rose's remind me of now a days…it reminds me of that dreadful disease called…now what was it again' said Hojo as he continue to tap his chin in wonder.

'Oh ya Aid's it's like a rose it travel's in your blood and stay's making your color slowly die like a flower with no water…until every single peddle or like I say life dies' said Hojo as he swung his hand to the flower making it fall to the ground along with the cup and water.

'No please leave me alone please' cried Kagome as she barred her tear stained face in her hands. "Don't you look away from me" yelled Hojo as he grabbed Kagome's chin roughly and lifted her to look at him with her red and teary eyes.

"When I'm talking to you do not look away or cover your face you hear me" yelled Hojo as he tightened his grip on Kagome's chin making her wince from her still not healed face.

Inuyasha please help me I don't want this to happen again please Inuyasha help me.

Thought Kagome as she tried to block out the pain rising up her sore face. 'Please Inuyasha help me please…' said Kagome but was stopped by a powerful slap across the face. "Who the fuck is Inuyasha and why do you forever talk about him huh" yelled Hojo but stopped as Kagome's eyes moved up from his and lit up joy at something or someone behind him.

Inuyasha thank you thank you

Thought Kagome, as Inuyasha looked at her with an I'm sorry I'm late face. "I'm Inuyasha and who the hell are you" said Inuyasha with anger as he glared at Hojo waiting for him to turn around and face him.

'Long time no see wouldn't you say Inuyasha' said Hojo in a strange yet familiar voice as he stayed facing away from Inuyasha and Kagome who had mange to get away from him and run behind Inuyasha.

"Huh who the fuck are you…wait did you do this to Kagome?" yelled Inuyasha as he felt Kagome grip at his back in fear. "Answer me damn it" yelled Inuyasha as he moved his hand to the halt of the Tesaiga.

'Inuyasha you…' said Kagome but stopped as a deep and evil chuckle echoed through out the room. 'Poor Inuyasha still listening to the miko's this days' said Hojo as he let out another sickening laugh.

'Wait I know that voice' said Inuyasha as he moved his hand from the Tesaiga and to Hojo's shoulder but was unable to grasp it as Hojo quickly moved away. 'I would rather you not touch me you might just bring out another one of my many beasts' said Hojo as he turned to Inuyasha with a the same smile still print on his face.

What's happening to him why does he look so different and why does he remind me of………
