"The light, ...where is that.. coming from?" he thought. "Why is everything... so bright..?"
"Ah. I see your awake." said a voice as everything came back into focus.
It was a nurse. "Where ... am I?" he said. "Don't you remember the ambulance trip? Your at the Hibiya Clinic." said the nurse.
Then, a mans voice joined in. "I see your awake. You gave us quite the scare you know. Taking thirty-four pills in an hour? ... You weren't attempting suicide ...were you? "I can't... I can't remember what I was doing.." he said quietly.
"Is he awake!?" said Sesshomaru as he came into the room. "Yes. You may see him now, but visiting hours are over in forty-five minutes." she said. Sesshomaru thanked the nurse.
Both the doctor and the nurse went to see other patients. Meanwhile, InuYasha slowly regained consciousness.
"InuYasha, just what the hell were you thinking?" said Sesshomaru. "Well, actually, you obviously couldn't have been thinking... you tried to kill yourself!" he yelled. "Honestly what were you trying to do to me?" his voice kept getting louder and louder, eventually InuYasha just went back to sleep.
"How long have I been here..?" he thought. "I wonder what everyone else is doing..?" InuYasha just couldn't keep his eyes open. I guess taking an overdose of methadone can really knock you out.
This was the third day he's been gone. Miroku was starting to wonder what had happened to him. "Maybe, I should actually try to figure out where he's gone.. instead of .. just asking these stupid girls." he was implying this to Yuka, Eri, and Ayumi.
Three days later, Miroku finally got a hold of Sesshomaru, and managed to get to the hospital.
"Whoah, InuYasha, you look like shit." laughed Miroku.
"Hey.. shut up!" this was so typical of Miroku, to make a joke even when InuYasha was in such bad shape.
"Man, you really worked yourself over. What did you take?" he asked, trying to sound serious.
"Heh, why, you gonna' try it yourself?" laughed InuYasha.
"Oh boy. You really are stupid or... hey, wait a minute... YOU'RE ON MORPHINE!" yelled Miroku.
InuYasha just laughed and said "Haha, yeah. Greatest benefit ever. I tell them it hurts, they hook me up to the machine." Miroku couldn't help but feel bad for the guy. He was just glad he didn't manage to do himself in.
The next day Kagome and Sango showed to the hospital to see InuYasha. And of course, came complete with homework in hand.
"InuYasha. You are by far, the BIGGEST moron I have ever met." said Kagome as she sat down by his bed.
"I mean, is Kikyo really that important to you that you tried to scare her into loving you? Because, all she did was laugh when we told her." this was typical of Sango, thinking the problem was related to Kikyo.
"Yeah... Sango, this was more about how fucked up I am.. and I could honestly care less about how Kikyo feels. Actually, she'd probably be better off if she were in my position. You know, hooked up to drugs? Because, she's obviously on them." said InuYasha.
"Alright, Sango, leave him alone. InuYasha, no bad mouthing Kikyo." At the moment, Kagome was picturing herself as a referee between these two.
"So, why did you two even come, I thought you hated me. And my habits." said InuYasha.
"Oh, we do. We just feel bad because you tried to kill yourself" laughed Sango.
"Has Miroku seen you yet?" asked Kagome who was ignoring Sango's last comment.
"Yeah, he was here. Hey... do you think if the guy next to me croaks... I'll get the window!?" InuYasha was quite pleased with this thought.
"Ohh boy." Kagome couldn't help but laugh. She felt guilty about this. It was kind of her fault, mainly Sango's... but. whatever. Still, here he was hooked up to intervenus, after a stomach pumping. "He's not even allowed to eat solid food yet..." she though.
Sango left the room, as InuYasha's nurse told them to quiet down, as InuYasha needed his sleep. "I guess it takes a bad situation to see the light sometimes." she couldn't stop thinking about InuYasha on the way home. "I really hope he's okay."
"Great. They brought my math homework." said InuYasha.
