Inu: Oo

NF: ...which means I get to make you do terrible terribley terwwible fings!

Inu: Oh shit.

A/N And I'm so tewwibly tewwibly sowwie for not updating! -sad frown- how longs has it been? I forget. And apparently I forgot what happened in the last chapter! Oooooooooh well, I'll just guess. -big smile- Nawwwwwwwww...I remember.

Last time when we left off (BEFORE I got that muffin!) - -;

But she hadn't seen the gun before there was a crack and felt an agonizing pain in her thigh.

Right before a screen of black darkened her vision and her mind went blank and she topped forward onto the cement.

The New Chapter -chapter 10- :

Her mind fuzzed as a blurred image covered the dark blanket that had resided over her eyes. The image cleared and the tight knot in her throat cleared.

She laughed in relief. So it was all a dream.

And then a face appeared over her vision.

"So you're awake. Finally."

Kagome choked in her cry. It also meant that she still had that date to go on that date with the flea-bagged dog. She grunted.

"...And I thought you had died." Inuyasha seemed to be speaking his own thoughts all of a sudden. "You just collasped in front of me."

Oh, so it wasn't a dream.

He paused. "Which got me into a lot of trouble when I carried you home. You don't weigh a lot you know that?"

She managed a small meek nod.

"And now you're going to be seeing a whole lotta me, Higurashi." He managed a sort of fang-ish smile. "Oh yeah, and I got your homework for the past week."

"Past week?" She rasped out. Her voice sounding odd to the ears.

"Well...technically it was just yesterday and the day before that. When you were still at the hospital...There was this criminal alert...Some guy escaped from jail. School got cancelled for until they catch the guy." He caught sight of Kagome's pained face. "No one was hurt."

"...Oh..."

"Maybe it was the criminal that shot you-"

"...It wasn't." Kagome sighed before her mind began to throb. She moaned and dropped her head into her hands.

Her mind went blank again.

A man sighed as he wrapped his cold hands around Kagome's, his eyes teary.

"Kagome, you're going to be in danger for the rest of your life..." Kagome watched silently as her father wiped his tears off of his eyes. "Keep Inuyasha near you. He's our blessing."

"Yours not mine." She hissed.

"Kagome-"

"Inuyasha's your blessing..NOT MINE." She cried before shaking her father's hand off of her own. "NOT MINE." She hollered before flinging the kitchen door close.

It was that night that he got shot.

When Kagome regained consciousness a second time, she was mentally aware of a dark room and the sounds outside of her room.

Sounds of people arguing.

She laughed as she remembered her father's words. No, Inuyasha was not her blessing He was a curse...A curse she had to withstand for the rest of her life. She hated him.

Fumbling with everything around her, she managed to slip a silk shawl over herself and fumbled out the door.

Someone had turned out all the lights.

As she walked down the incredibly dark hall. Getting closer and closer to the noises. Upon reaching it, she caught one word.

Marriage.

"Kagome?" She heard Rin's odd voice. She felt arms support her.

She smiled. "Rin? Would you turn on the lights please? It's getting awfully hard to see."

There was a silence.

"I'm awake now but thank you for being so considerate. You really didn't need to turn off ALL the lights however."

She noticed she was the only voice speaking.

Then Rin's wavering voice broke the silence.

"Uhh... Kagome..."

There was a long pause before Rin finished the sentence.

"...the lights are all on."

A/N gawrsh, It's soooooooo short. And believe me, I have HARDLY a plot in my head. -sweatdrop- ARGHHETTE. I would write a better newest chappie, but I have tons 'n tons 'n tons of homework junk. So I'll be seeing ya'll the next time I update. (Which WILL be soon...Don't desert me!) But I just HAD to have a really short chapter to mention one thing:
