Questions that Can't or Won't be Answered
Chapter One
OoooooooooooooxoooooooooooooO
Kagome woke with a banging migraine. 'Why does my head hurt so much?' she silently looked up into the faces of her friends gathered by a fire. She searched for the one she needed comfort from but couldn't seem to find him. 'Where's Inuyasha?' Dread welled up inside her chest when no one answered her. 'Did something happened to him?' Miroku and Sango looked away while tears gathered into Shippou's eyes. Sango's hesitant reply caused her to panic. 'Kagome… we can't find him.'
Kagome rushed to stand up to only be hit with dizziness and nausea. She collapsed into Miroku's quick arms while whispering out her only concern. 'Inuyasha…'
"Miss Higarashi? Miss Kagome Higarashi? Kagome snapped out of her thoughts at the sound of the voice. She blankly stared up at the nurse and gave a small nervous smile. The teen carefully moved from her chair and approached the waiting escort. From the corner of her eyes she noticed her mother follow.
"Hi, I'm Nurse Kouran and I'll be giving you your check up." Kagome gave her a smile to confirm her friendliness.
Miss Kouran led them down the halls and passed occupied rooms. Kagome saw children sleeping or playing with their visiting relatives. She flinched when she heard the sound of a toddler kicking and screaming.
The sound grew louder as she came closer to an open door. Kagome paused about two feet from the door when a little girl came running out. She braced herself when the child leapt towards her and took shelter in her arms.
A nurse came running after the little girl while profoundly apologizing for interrupting their trek. Kagome ignored her as she tried to pull the little girl from her. But she kept clinging onto Kagome for dear life.
With a small sigh, Kagome bent down onto her knees so she could face the crying girl. Tear-stained eyes peaked into Kagome's face.
Love at first sight exists?
The little girl was absolutely adorable. She had raven black hair and big innocent brown eyes. As she smiled, Kagome noticed a missing tooth, but her charming dimples made up for it. Her eyes scanned the black smudges and noticed that the child's delicate skin was scraped, burned, and bleeding.
"Oh dear, what's happened to her?" her mother asked the nurse who was being scolded by Miss Kouran.
"She was in a car accident, for some reason their engine blew up and—" Miss Kouran interrupted the speaking nurse before she could continue.
"I'm sorry but that's confidential information." She sent a glare at the younger nurse and started for the girl in Kagome's arms.
"Rin… Sweetie. Go with Miss Ana. Please. We need to take care of your wounds."
The little girl, now verified as Rin, shook her head vigorously and hugged Kagome tighter.
"Honey… You don't want them to get infected. You might get sick and have to stay here longer."
Rin whimpered and started to cry against Kagome's shoulder. Kagome gently picked up the crying girl into her arms and carried her into the room. She placed her on the small bed and pried Rin's hands from her neck.
When she finally let go. Kagome sat on the side and stroked her hair. "Shh… its okay. It's all going to be over soon. Shh…" Kagome distracted her while the nurses cleaned her scrapes and burns. They applied ointment to her cuts and placed hello kitty bandages on them.
Rin's cries turned into sniffles and soon she opened her eyes and stared at Kagome with adoration. Kagome wiped away her drying tears and patted little Rin's head. "See that wasn't so bad. Right?"
When Kagome moved to leave, Rin grabbed onto her hand to stop her. Kagome stared back at Rin and smiled. "I have to go now okay?"
Rin shook her head as tears started to fall again. This is sad. "I'll tell you what, I promise before I leave that I'll come see you again? Okay?"
Rin brought up her other hand while holding out a pinky. It brought a smile to Kagome's lips. I haven't smiled in a while. She's so cute. "I pinky promise swear Rin-chan."
Rin smiled at her and let go of her hand. As Kagome walked out of the room, she didn't feel her gaze drop until she was out the door. Kagome sighed to herself as she followed Miss Kouran.
Kagome half listened to her mother charm the nurse into talking about Rin. She quickly caught on when Miss Kouran said something on the lines of "Poor Thing."
"Her parents were brought into the emergency room and has never been out since. And her brother is in a coma too. She's only six and her brother only eight. He sure is brave to save both their lives…"
"What poor darlings!"
"Yes, dear Shippou jumped out of the car while holding onto Rin. Sad faith that the car crashed into a pole and collapsed sideways…" the nurse sighed as she opened a door to a room.
Kagome stared at the nurse like she was crazy. Shippou? The image of the little kitsune youkai sprouted into her mind.
"Their parents seems like lost hope right now. I feel bad to think of what would happen to those two children."
It has to be a different Shippou… hello Kagome? Get a grip. It can't be your Shippou Damn… How sad… I guess tragic things still happen here like in the Feudal Era… just different circumstances…
Kagome jumped onto the bed and sat while Miss Kouran skimmed through her medical folder. "You're only 16 years old Miss Kagome?" she replied with a faint yes.
"And what is your purpose for this check up today Miss Higarashi?"
Kagome stayed quiet as she looked at the ground. Thankfully her mother answered for her. "Kagome's been getting bad headaches. She's been cramping even though she isn't on her period. Everything I feed her she can't keep in her stomach. And yesterday she collapsed while trying to stand up.
The nurse stared at Kagome with some amount of concern. "Miss Kagome? Have you missed your period or has it ever been delayed these past few months?"
"…I—I… yeah I didn't get my period… until like… five days when I usually get it… Is that a problem?" Kagome looked directly into her nurse's eyes and noticed the pity in their gray irises.
"Miss Kagome… Have you had any sexual intercourse recently?" Kagome's eyes went blank at the word sexual…
Kagome… his voice echoed through her mind as he slowly pulled her closer to him. He kissed her softly on her lips and moved towards her neck…
Her mother jumped to that possibility. "Kagome would never do anything like that. You didn't do anything drastic like that. Right Kagome?"
He licked and nibbled her collarbone as he worked his way down her shirt line. When the fabric blocked his path, he fiercely ripped it to shreds with a low growl. The water from her bath in the hot springs was still moist on her skin…
"Kagome?"
Kagome gave a low moan when his claws rubbed her nipples. She bit her bottom lip as his tongue flicked over her hardened buds. He silently slipped both her skirt and panties off with a gentle pull…
"Miss Kagome?…"
She easily fell onto his lap as he devoted his lips to her chest. She felt the hardness of him press into the center of her mound. Kagome could feel his tip at her entrance and shuddered at the new feeling…
"Kagome!"
Tears slid down her eyes as she looked at her mother's face. "Inuyasha…"
