Dr. Kagolittle
Summary: Kagome is an ordinary person until she learns that she can talk to animals. What happens when the one she talks to needs her help desperately?
Yeah, I know..Another story, but I just need to write things down, and writing more stories will make me a better writer for my future journalist career.(not really)(shhh)(don't tell anyone!)
Kagome is a miko, but doesn't know it. Inuyasha and the others, you'll find out!
Chapter 1
"Who let the dogs out?! Woof, woof woof woof , who let the dogs out!"
An old fashioned radio was on full blast and so was the fan outside of a normal looking, regular sized building. It was a hot summer day in Tokyo, Japan, and Kagome Higurashi was enjoying it. She was currently listening to the radio on the back porch of her office and practice. She was dancing with a dog that had a cast on it's right paw but was healing well.
Yes, she was dancing with a dog. Kagome Higurashi was a full fledged vet who was quite popular where she lived. Her office was centered in the middle of Tokyo, so anyone could get there no matter what. A bonus was that she lived close to home so she could see her family whenever. Everyone knew her, and she got the most business. Her income was quite well, and she had been in this for 2 years now.
Kagome was a wonderful person as well as a doctor. She always cared for the animals with real love for what she did. The money she made was an extra. And all of the extra money that she made was split. 43 was for herself, and the other 57 was for the other animal hospitals. She cared about them, and the animals that were on the outskirts of Tokyo, the people who owned or took care of them who had little money to keep it up. She donated money to all of them because of her good soul. Her very good soul.
Kagome had dark, dark brown hair that was straight to the end where it curled a little, it was mid shoulder length. It hung there, shining, bouncy with life. Her eyes were a light hazel, with little golden flecks that made them unusual, yet beautiful at the same time. That was one of the things that made her unique.
She had a nose like everyone else, with two nostrils, and at times, boogers in unnatural shapes. But hey, who doesn't?
Her lips were a light color that she always shines up with her clear lip gloss. They were inviting, which made most guys attracted to her a lot. They were always so well kept, and they got attention a little less then her eyes.
She had a profile that she kept with her at all times if she ever needed it. And if anyone ever needed her information, like say, a hot guy? Kouga had personally made it for her so if anyone wanted her number...
Name: Higurashi Kagome
Age: 24
Birthdate: July 25, 1983
Current Occupation: Vet; exotic, home, etc.
Location:Tokyo, Japan
Income: 56,000 dollars
There was more, but that wasn't important.
She did have boyfriends, though they all ended up with them intentionally confessing that they only went out with her because she was hot. She liked the attention, but she wanted someone who wanted her for her looks. Like her latest one, Kouga Ookami, 24 years old also. He was a looker, but wasn't worth it.
They went out for 2 and a half months, and on their last date, Kouga decided to be truthful with Kagome. He took her to one of the finest restaurants in Tokyo, an interesting, yet expensive French place, Le Cheau Te. She had never been there before, and when Kouga told her about it, she literally freaked out. He had called her one night when she was working late at her hospital. She was filling out medical paperwork for a dog in I.C.U, and he had called her cell phone. In the end of the date...well, you'll find out.
Flashback
WOOF WOOF...WOOF WOOF...
My ring tone was a dog barking happily, and I picked up my flip phone, groaning tiredly, wondering who it would be. For the past 10 minutes, I had been getting calls from owners who demanded a whole bunch of crap. Paperwork for their animal's surgery, things like that. Honestly, I was getting tired. Really, really tired. I sighed, and picked up my phone to see who it was. The little screen said ♥Kouga♥.
Well, maybe he could cheer me up..' she thought. She flicked the top part up, and answered "Hello-o?" She smiled when she heard him chuckle.
"Aya...Kagome! Hey baby!" She frowned. 'Wait...what did he just say? Aya...maybe he was shocked that I answered..'
She shook it off as nothing, and smiled again, her workers around her that she'd come to love smiled at the young love. "Hey Kouga, hun, I miss you..Today was so long! So, what's up with you, seeing as the you're the one who called! Silly.." She laughed.
Kouga took a while to answer, and said something incohearent. "Kagome, I AM silly, but I did call for a special reason." Kagome got excited at his sentence, ooh what would he say!
"Um..Let's go out to dinner, huh, my treat babe." He said. Kagome frowned, usually his idea of dinner was a fast food restaurant, but maybe today was a change. After all, he did love her a lot, and the last time they went to a fast food joint was in their first month of dating. But that was the month of bowling,( not that she didn't enjoy it) walking, bike riding, and things like that. The second month so far was flowers, chocolates, dinners, mini golfing...and movies. That was the sweetest month because at work, she would get flowers and chocoloates. And sometimes, he even thought of treats for dogs! So caring..
"Kagooomee! Are you there? Kags, hello!?" Kouga was talking on the other line all the time, and she hadn't noticed. But his endless calling of her name woke her up.
"Sorry Kouga, a little day dreaming...What were you saying?" She asked. He sighed. "Kagome, please, try and pay more attention. Relationships can't work if we don't listen to the other!"
'Is he being playful and sarcastic or is he actually serious? His tone was so different from the normal Kouga. It sounded weird...' She thought.
"I said before, that we should go to the..the restaurant, the French one, Le Cheau Te. Around...7:30, I'll pick you up. Fine?" Fine, what the hell does that mean? What was with the attitude, she hadn't done anything wrong!
Kagome sighed, and answered. "Kouga, yeah, 7:30's fine. What was with saying fine like that? Are you mad at me for a simple mistake?" No answer.
"HELLO! Kouga!?" Still no answer but she heard something like a groan or a whimper..What was it? "K..Kagome, I ha...have to go, I just h...hit into a pole while walking..I'll see you at...7...30." And he hung up.
Kagome hit the end button, and slammed her phone down, what the hell was going on! She was fuming, so pissed off right now. Was he with somebody else? No, he was...too much in love with me, anyone could tell that because of how he asked her out.
Kagome's P.O.V
That cornball, he somehow got the cutest little dog that I love the most, the breed, West Highland White Terrier, to bring me a letter in a light blue color that had a sakura blossom smell, and it said the sweetest thing. "I am in love with you, secretly, please go out with me?"
Then he walked through the front door of my clinic, and held my hands, his eyes sparkling...And I had to accept. He was the cutest thing then, and they went to a restaurant, and a party, and finally started to officially date.
Normal P.O.V
Kagome sighed, deciding it as nothing, she trusted him. Boy, was that a bad idea.
At dinner, Kouga took her outside when she was done with her lobster, potatoes, and cole slaw. He hadn't touched his chicken tenders, french fries, and milkshake. She had gotten a little...A lot angry ( if that makes sense) that he bought off the KID'S Menu, and tried to get her to do the same.
"Kagome, it'll be less money, and it'll still taste delicious! Just get the spaghetti and meatballs!" He whispered loudly to her. At the same time, Kagome's eyebrow started twitching, her eyes wide in anger.
She was so ready to scream right there, but not wanting people to think she was crazy, she opened her mouth wide, and...yawned.
And then ignored Kouga, and ordered the lobster. After all, HE was the one who asked HER out, so HE should let her get whatever she wanted!
So, after, they went outside, and walked around a fountain by the front of the restaurant. It was a cold, brisk night, and she was cold. She looked around herself at the other couples, and smiled at how they were cuddling to each other, keeping warm, while Kouga was just holding her hand, keeping her cold... He turned to her, and said, "I have a confession." Kagome, thinking the..worst ever, yelled really loud,
"ARE YOU COMING OUT THE CLOSET!!"
Kouga dropped down and red faced screamed back, "NO!"
She laughed, and said, "Oh..."
He stood back up, and took her by the hands again.
"I want our relationship to last for a long time, Kagome..So, I need to tell you something." Before she had a chance to say something, he continued on.
"Um, I was fooling around with a girl, Ayame, maybe you know her, I think that I should tell you, and stay together because of the tru-"
He couldn't finish because Kagome had just punched him dead in the jaw. His head turned with the impact, and he stumbled backwards. "What do you mean, fooling around, Kouga?" She yelled through grited teeth.
He fell backwards at her glare, and people around started to stare. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN! ANSWER ME!" Kouga crawled backwards, and got up really quick. "Kagome, I..I"
"YOU WHAT? Kouga..You cheated on me, I don't give a damn if you told me Kouga. You're the one who asked ME out, not vice versa. You're the one who wanted to go on a date with me, and now what? You cheat on me with some girl!"
He was speechless until a loud smack was heard. Kagome's mouth dropped when she saw some red headed girl with amazing green eyes smack Kouga right there. Kagome stared in amazement as she smacked him once more on the other side of his head. She almost felt bad now, but the keyword there is almost.Hey, he got what he got.
The girl now nicknamed 'Green eye' by Kagome, shoved Kouga to the ground, and tears were flooding out of her eyes. Damn, what a mess! 'Green eye' kicked him, then turned to Kagome, and smiled at her.
"Hi...I'm Ayame. Listen, I hope you don't think that I'm some kind of trampy whore, because I'm not. Kouga asked me out about a month ago, and I had no idea that he had another girlfriend that he had before me. I am so sorry about this..." At the end of her introduction, she burst into tears again, and Kagome felt bad for her.
"Hi, my name's Kagome Higurashi..He asked me out two months ago, and he is such an asshole, honey, don't cry over him! It's not your fault that he was like that, so please don't. Let's go inside here, I'll pay!" Ayame looked at her, and smiled.
They had went inside, and talked, now they were good friends.
End Flashback
So here she was, dancing outside, with the cutest dog ever. His paw was healing pretty well, and the dancing would help. The music was starting to get on her nerves, and the dogs inside were barking now, thinking another dog was starting a little something something.
Her co-worker, Sango Tajiyari came through the door that led outside, and smiled at Kagome dancing with the dog, who was now being twirled around. The dog was hopping in circles, her tail wagging furiously. Sango couldn't help but laugh, and so she did, alerting Kagome that somebody was there.
Kagome panted loudly, smiling at Sango the same time. "Hey...Sango..What's up?"
Sango walked to a cooler by the fan, and got a water bottle for Kagome. She threw it to her, and Kagome caught it, pouring most of it into the dog's water bowl, drinking little herself.
"Kagome, there's a need for you, a cockatoo is scratching the owner up pretty badly with it's overgrown nails. They need you to work your magic, and help them out by cutting the nails. And hurry up, we had to put gloves on to not get cut badly on the hand while handling it." She finished by holding a pair of gloves and a nail clipper special made for birds like the cockatoo.
Kagome sighed, and picked up the little Yorkshire Terrier that she was dancing with. "Listen up, Sherry, I've got to go, sorry, but..can we finish our dance later? Puh-lease!"
The dog just wagged it's tail, and motioned that it wanted to go down by lowering his head towards the ground. Kagome grinned at the understanding of the dog,she put her down and put her leash on. Handing Sherry to Sango, she said, "Take her around the office a little, she needs a little more exercise! But let her drink first." Sherry heard that and walked to her water bowl, and drank most of the water.
With that statement, Kagome walked to Sango, and took the nail clippers and gloves, and walked away. Waving, without a glance back, Sango said to the dog,
"What a girl, huh Sherry?"
So...what do you think? Review!
