A/N: Sorry it took me so long... anyways, I received a review saying I was updating too slow. You know who you are. I can understand your impatience, but please, I'm doing the best I can. School takes up a lot of my time. I HATE SCHOOL! Phew.. got that off my chest. Anyways, I was actually in the middle of doing a final check over the chapter when I received the said review. Weird, huh? Just to let this person know, I'm not mad at him/her, just very slightly annoyed. I'm looking forward to another one of their long reviews...I like long reviews.

This chapter's not as long as some of the other ones because I currently am suffering from a minor case of writers block, but it should clear up soon. (Hey, I sound like a doctor diagnosing a cold or something). Well, here you go: Chapter 5.

Chapter 5: The doctor's office - Part 1

"Uncle Aki, this is Sesshomaru-sama" she emphasized, "Rin, and Jaken". He nodded to the youkai, and waved merrily to Rin, who in turn, waved back, smiling.

"Everyone, this is my Uncle Aki. He's a little weird, but you'll get used to him" Kagome said, pointing to the moustached man in the doorway. He was about 6'5", wearing a black T-shirt, bluejeans, and his black hair was pulled back into a ponytail stretching about two inches lower than his shoulders. Sesshomaru inclined his head slightly, and Jaken nodded.

"Would you like some coffer, Uncle?"

"Sure, Sweetie" he answered, ruffling her hair affectionately, and sitting down. "We should probably leave in the next five minutes" Kagome announced, adding in extra time because she had a feeling some of the group wouldn't take to a car right away.

"Alright" her uncle replied, attempting to chug his coffee without burning himself, and failing miserably. Rin finished her Cheerios, commenting how much she liked them, and placed her bowl in the sink, followed by Sesshomaru and Aki with their empty cups.

Kagome gave Rin some flip flops to wear, and Sesshomaru a pair of socks and white tennis shoes. It took a couple of minutes for the Taiyoukai to figure out how to put them on, since he refused any help offered from the miko - he got them on eventually, however. Kagome handed Jaken the remote control to the television, and the rest walked out the door, Kagome locking it behind her. She led the way to the car, her uncle slightly behind her and to the right. Sesshomaru and Rin walked further behind. Aki immediately got into the drivers seat and started the car. Kagome wished he would've waited because at that moment, Sesshomaru gently nudged Rin behind him, and placed his hand on the hilt of Tokijin, just incase this mysterious, mechanical monster decided to try anything funny. Kagome watched the whole scene with her uncle, both of them sweatdropping.

"It's okay. That's just the car" Kagome reassured, grabbing Rin's hand and lightly pulled her towards the car. She opened the back door of the Chevy, got in, crawling across to the farside, and sat down. Rin followed hesitantly, but seeing the smile on Kagome's face, the child relaxed a bit. She sat in the middle, and Kagome buckled her in. Sesshomaru was standing a good five feet away from the thing as he watched the miko strap in his ward before looking up at him expectantly.

"You know we can't leave until you get in" He stayed put for a second more before slowly making his way towards the car and filling the last unoccupied seat next to Rin.

"You have to buckle up, so you're safe"

The Taiyoukai looked at the miko.

"How?"

Sighing, she reached across Rin and Sesshomaru, and grabbed the seatbelt by the window. Kagome pulled it across him to click into the connecter by his hip. Then she sat back, and buckled her own seatbelt. Sesshomaru tugged at his slightly. He did not like these confining things.

"Now if you'd pull the door shut, we could go" the miko said to the Taiyoukai. He obliged to her request.

Aki started the car, and pulled it out into the street. The reactions were immediate. Both Rin and Sesshomaru tensed at the sudden noise and motion, but calmed down after Kagome's explanation that it was supposed to do that. The doctor's office was about fifteen minutes away, and while weaving through traffic to get to their destination, the two newcomers' eyes were glued to the objects going past ouside the windows. Every once in a while, a question would be asked by one of them for the identity of object that struck their interest, and Kagome would promptly answer and explain what it did. The ride was relatively uneventful until a big cement truck passed them, releasing exhaust, which immediately flew into the open window, almost causing poor Sesshomaru to faint on the spot. After a nasty coughing fist from the Lord of the Western Lands, the group arrived in the parking lot of the doctor's office. They got out of the car, and entered the building.

Once in the waiting room, Aki led his niece's friends to some seats while Kagome ventured to the receptionist's desk. She signed Rin in, and was told that the doctor would be available in five minutes. The miko sat down, and silence followed. A person on the other side of the room coughed, but no noise other than that was heard.

'Sort of gives you the feeling of impending doom, doesn't it?' Kagome thought to herself. A nurse entered the room, caring a clipboard, and called Rin's name. She, Kagome, and Sesshomaru stood up. Aki decided to stay behind, and read some out of date magazines. The nurse led them into a patient room, and had Rin sit up of the papercovered bed-thing. (What is that thing! A bed? A chair? What!) Noting the nervousness of her patient, the nurse smiled at the little girl. "Is this your first time at a doctor's office?" Rin nodded. "Well, don't you worry about a thing. Everything will be fine" Rin nodded again, this time, smiling at the lady. Picking up a pen, the nurse asked the usual questions: symptoms, allergies, etc. Then Rin's weight and height were measured. The nurse opened door and turned around. "The doctor will be with you shortly" At the nods of the occupants, the nurse left the room. It was quiet once again.

"I'm bored" Rin announced after a minute or two.

"Well, there's nothing really to do, Rin. What I usually ending up doing is counting the ceiling tiles" Kagome said, tilting her head back. Rin followed...

"42" she declared after a minute and a half. At that moment, the door opened again, and a man dressed in a white doctor's coat entered the room. He looked at he occupants in the room.

"Hello everyone, I'm Doctor Yagura"

A/N: There, another chapter. I hope it's to your liking. I'm not sure when the next chapter's going up, seeing as only about five sentences of it have been written. There's probably a whole bunch of grammar and spelling mistakes also, point them out if you find them.

So, how'd you like it? Give me feedback - let me know!
