10 Days passed. Kagome finally got out of the hospital
Kagome was getting ready to go to school. She looked at her fingernails. They had grown. She clipped them. She got her school clothes on and went to school.
While walking, she was reminiscing on the battle with the praying mantis demon. She thought of the intense pain before she blacked out. She had a scar where the mantis demon hit her. It hadn't hurt at all after the surgery. It was a mystery. She ignored it
Meanwhile, through the well:
"What happened to Kagome?" Shippo asked.
"She was at a place called a hospital, I think." Inuyasha replied.
"Will she ever come back?" Shippo asked, worrying.
"She will, even if I have to drag her here." Inuyasha said to Shippo.
"Nice to see you're worried about your girlfriend." Shippo teased.
Inuyasha started hitting Shippo on the head. He stopped after Miroku and Sango pried him off Shippo.
"Why'd you do that?" Shippo asked.
"Because you were being a little pest." Inuyasha answered.
The next day, Kagome dragged herself out of bed. It was Saturday. She went to look in a mirror. She noticed her fingernails had grown instantly overnight.
"Something is definitely wrong." Kagome thought.
Kagome trimmed her nails, again.
She got dressed and went through the well.
Inuyasha was sleeping in the tree closest to the well. Kagome came up
"Inuyasha!" She called out
Inuyasha woke up after falling out of the tree
"Hello" he said tiredly.
"Where are the others?" Kagome asked.
There with Kaede.
"Kaede wants to see your arrows in action for some reason" Inuyasha said
Inuyasha and Kagome got to Kaede's. They were greeted by a chorus of "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine" Kagome assured
Kagome decided to shoot an arrow. She took aim and fired. Her arrow didn't light up with energy like it always did.
"That's odd" Kagome said
Kagome tried all afternoon to shoot a sacred arrow. She could only shoot regular arrows. She started thinking.
"You were at the hospital when they did that surgery, right Inuyasha?" Kagome asked
"How else did you get there?" Inuyasha answered
"Where you in the same room as me when they 'healed' me?" asked Kagome
"No, I was in a place that had a sign on the door that said blood donations" Inuyasha answered. "It felt like something stabbed my arm"
Kagome went home. She then went to the hospital and asked "Who gave the blood I got?"
The receptionist searched the computer. Then she answered "It came from a unknown donor who fell asleep in the donation room when you were going into the operating room.
"Thank you" Kagome said
Kagome went home and went to bed. When she got up the next morning, she didn't bother trimming her nails. She knew she was turning into a half demon like Inuyasha
