"Inuyasha," The frantically pacing half-demon stopped and turned to look at Doctor Kominaiya, who had walked into the room with astonishment etched into every line of his face.
"What?" He barked irritably. (No pun intended.)
"Well," The doctor said slowly, "I'm not sure how to tell you this, but, well, your girlfriend, Kikyo, when we did the surgery, we found out that she has, umm…"
"Spit it out!" Inuyasha demanded.
"She has mechanical parts in her body." Doctor Kominaiya muttered quickly, and then winced, waiting for the impact.
"SAY WHAT?!"
In a tiny, dingy, crumbling shack on the outskirts of the city, the one shattered window in the front was alit with flickering light from the television in the corner.
Kagome Higurashi laughed manically as she bent over the small operating table.
Until a name coming from her crackly speakers caught her attention.
"Higurashi Kikyo was pronounced officially dead this morning, after a little mishap with her still moving after being announced dead the first time."
Kagome dropped the screwdriver she had been holding and her eyes grew wide.
"Fucking hell!" She shouted as she dove under the bed and came out holding a ratty, torn, old red plaid suitcase.
"Oh no, oh no, they're coming after me…I'm Kikyo's only living relative…Got to leave, run away, somewhere, anywhere…" she muttered as she hurriedly packed what little possessions she had into the suitcase.
"Where is it, where is it? Got to find it and scram…they can't find me, they just can't…The invention…Hide it; must hide it…no, no, no, no, no!"
A loud knock on the moldy door made the entire shack shake and sent Kagome tumbling ungracefully to the dirty, stained floor.
"Police! Open up!"
Kagome screamed as she jumped up and grabbed the closest pointy thing she could find; the screwdriver she had dropped earlier.
"Don't come in! I'm warning you!"
She could hear the person outside sigh in exasperation before saying, "I just need to tell you about your sister."
Kagome laughed humorlessly, and then yelled, "I know about my sister! I have a television!"
"Did you know about the little "incident" after she died?" the man asked.
Kagome's bright blue eyes widened beneath her white scientist goggles before she questioned, "The one about her still moving?"
"Yeah. Do you have any information about that?"
The teenage girl immediately cried out, "No! I don't and I never will! Now leave me alone!"
"You answered that rather quickly for someone who doesn't know anything…" The police officer accused.
"I don't know anything! LEAVE ME ALONE!" She roared as she ripped the front door open fiercely.
"Surprised?" She asked the stunned police officer sweetly before jamming the screwdriver through his stomach.
"So, this "Kagome Higurashi" is Kikyo's only living relative?" Inuyasha asked as he watched Doctor Kominaiya sip his jasmine tea slowly.
"Ahh, I love jasmine tea," the doctor said as he placed the cup down onto the mahogany table, "Yes, Inuyasha, to answer your question, Kagome Higurashi is Kikyo's only living relative."
"But what about their parents? Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle, Aunt?"
"Their parents died when Kagome was 16 and Kikyo was 15. On Kagome's birthday, in fact. And we have no records of any other living relatives."
"Huh. So, where does Kagome live?"
"She has been at Onigumo Insane Asylum for the past three years, but no one is allowed visitors there, so we haven't been in contact with her for over three years. The only reason Hojo was able to track her down was because of her escape from the mental hospital a week ago. In fact, Hojo went to go tell her the news a few hours ago. Speaking of Hojo, where is he? He should've been back-"
The doctor was cut off when a nurse ran into the room and screamed, "Doctor, doctor! Hurry!"
"What happened?" Doctor Kominaiya demanded.
"It's Hojo!"
Inuyasha winced when he noticed the painful looking hole in the police officer's stomach.
"Who did this to you?" The doctor asked from where he knelt by Hojo's side.
The police officer coughed blood onto the floor before replying weakly, "Kagome…Higurashi."
Doctor Kominaiya was shocked.
"Kagome Higurashi, Kikyo's sister Kagome?" the doctor questioned the injured Hojo.
"Yes. She stabbed me with a screwdriver…" was all the wounded police officer could get out before he fell unconscious.
"Oh dear…" Doctor Kominaiya commented, shocked. "Well, this proves to be a rather interesting problem, doesn't it?"
"What do you mean, "interesting"?" Inuyasha cried. "She stabbed him with a screwdriver for crying out loud! Jeez, now I know why she's been at the mental hospital for three years."
"Well, if she stabbed him with a screwdriver, she's probably hiding something. It would've been helpful if Hojo had told us exactly what had happened. Then we could tell what she freaked out about."
"I'm hunting her down." Inuyasha stated suddenly.
"What?!" The doctor shouted, appalled. "Inuyasha, are you crazy?! She brought down Hojo with a screwdriver because he told her something! Who knows what on Earth she'll do to you if you find her and start interrogating her!"
The half-demon fixed the doctor with a hard stare.
"I don't care." He remarked angrily. "She's Kikyo's only living relative, and I know for a fact that Kikyo went out the day after Kagome escaped. I'm going to hunt her down and get some answers!"
"But Inuyasha-" Doctor Kominaiya protested.
The hanyou stuck his hand out and the doctor stopped talking.
"I'm going. You can't stop me."
Doctor Kominaiya sighed and then commented, "Well, I suppose I can't stop you then. But, if you're going to go through with it," he stuck his hand in his pocket, brought out a crumpled piece of paper, and handed it to Inuyasha, "Take that."
"What's this?" Inuyasha asked, staring at the paper with curiosity.
"It's Kagome's current address. I don't think you'll find her, but that's where she was when Hojo went to "talk" to her. That's the only help I can offer you. Good luck." The doctor said as he patted the half-demon on the shoulder and walked out of the room, leaving Inuyasha staring at the paper.
He clenched the paper in his hand and growled, "Wherever you are Kagome, I'll find you. And when I do, you'll have a lot of explaining to do. Starting with the parts."
Kagome had fled when Hojo had fallen to the ground and started screaming.
She ran inside, grabbed her suitcase and what was on the table, and then ran out through the back, hearing the approaching sirens as she sprinted through the forest behind the shack on the outskirts of town.
"Damn…"she muttered to herself as she slowed her run to a walk. "That was the only place left that I knew of… This sucks."
As she walked, Kagome became very bored. She played I spy, thumb wars, patty cake, hide and go seek, you name it.
When there was nothing else to do, Kagome began to whistle.
The whistling became humming, and then the humming became singing.
Hello little
boys, little toys
We're the dreams you're believing
Crawling
up the walls
Running down your face
Razor sharp, razor
clean
Feel the weapon's sensation
On your back...
With
loaded guns
Kagome had started dancing by this point, throwing her arms up in the air and spinning in circles.
Now hold onto me pretty baby
If you want to
fly
I'm gunna melt the fever sugar
Rolling back your
eyes
We're gunna ride the race cars
We're gunna dance on
fire
We're the girls Le Disko
Supersonic overdrive
She sang extra loud on this part, trying to emphasize that this was the chorus.
So
what's it gunna take?
Silver shadow believer...
Spock rocker
with your dirty eyes
It's a chance gunna move
Gunna fuck up
your ego
Silly boy gunna make you cry
Now hold onto me

If you want to fly
I'm gunna melt the fever

Rolling back your eyes

We're the girls Le
Disko
Supersonic overdrive
We're gunna ride the
race cars
We're gunna dance on fire
We're the girls Le
Disko
Supersonic overdrive
The teenage girl made motions with her hands that looked similar to that of one holding a gun and started shooting everything in sight.
If what they
say is true...
You're a boy - and I'm a girl
I will never
fall in love with you
We're gunna ride the race cars
We're
gunna dance on fire
We're the girls Le Disko

We're gunna ride the

We're the girls Le
Disko
Supersonic overdrive…
Kagome trailed off, and then sighed.
"Wow," she said after she had caught her breath. "I haven't sung that song in forever!"
She gasped when she looked ahead, for there, sitting atop the hill, was a small shack, very similar to the one Kagome had just run from.
"Yes!" she shouted, pumping her fist in the air victoriously. "I knew it would work!"
Kagome ran up the hill effortlessly and opened the door to the shack with a big WOOSH of air.
"Hello?" she asked cautiously as she peeked into the threshold.
"Stop right there fiend!" Came a feminine voice from behind the chair sitting by the desk in the corner of the room.
"Sango?"
The chair swiveled around and the female in it gasped.
"Kagome?"
Said teenager smiled mischievously and spread her arms open wide.
"In the flesh!"
"So, why are you going to go look for this chick again?" Miroku asked Inuyasha boredly as he inspected a lamp sitting on a bedside table.
"I told you! She was Kikyo's sister!" The half-demon stated exasperatedly as he grabbed the lamp from Miroku's hands and placed it back down on the table.
"And?" the future monk said as he glanced around the room.
"And, Kikyo "went out" the day after Kagome escaped."
"Wait. What did Kagome escape from?" Miroku questioned.
"Umm…I think it was Onigumo Insane Asylum or something like that."
"Woah, woah, woah! Slow down! So, let me get this straight. We're going to hunt down Kikyo's sister, who has been hospitalized for three years, with nothing but ourselves and some food, in the middle of winter, just to ask her some questions about something she probably doesn't have anything to do with?"
"Yep!" Inuyasha stated cheerfully.
Miroku slumped into his chair and sighed.
"Dude, if I weren't your best friend and didn't know better, I'd say you needed to be hospitalized."
"Yeah, but at least I didn't stab someone in the stomach with a screwdriver." The half-demon pointed out.
The future monk nodded.
"True, true."
"Good, now let's go!" Inuyasha commanded.
"Wait; one quick question." Miroku interrupted.
"What?" The hanyou asked, tapping his foot impatiently.
"Is she hott?"
