The Poison Hearted

Chapter Two

Disclaimer: I don't own anything about Inuyasha. The characters, nothing!

Note to whomever: Alright, I know in this chapter I totally stole Sasuke Uchiha(sp??) name from Naruto. Sorry! My mind went blank and I needed a name! Although his last name isn't Uchiha in this story. Okay, okay, I don't own Inuyasha, but the storyline is all mine! XD! Okay, just read it already.

Her whole being ached. She slowly rolled her head to the side, trying to wake up. Groaning she tried to wipe her face with her hands only to discover her body was completely immobilized. Tugging at her limbs she became frantic. Her eyes shot open and she was greeted by a dim bulb hanging a few feet away. Crying out in pain she bit her bottom lip, trying to desperately to ignore the pain in her chest and arm. "Inuyasha?" she called out into the darkness. Tears rolled down her heated cheeks, as she called his name over and over. "This is all my fault." she moaned in agony. "if I had just stayed at the village, Inuyasha would have never come to see me, and then this whole thing wouldn't have happened."

Squinting her eyes she strained to uncover her surroundings. A leaky pipe dangled from the corner, attached to an obnoxious DRIP, DRIP, DRIP. The walls were covered in mold and vines. There was a large metal door in the left hand corner. A large wooden cabinet stood adjacent to the door. Her bed was alright, it was cold and hard, but covered with some sort of mattress. Probably a medical gurney. Where was she? Looking down at her body she noticed bandages around her abdomen and shoulder. There was a small red smudge beginning to reveal itself in the middle of both bandages. Her mind was racing. What happened?
FLASHBACK:

Drifting out of an unconscious state she looked around and groaned. "Where am I?" she called out. A dark figure pushed the hair out of her eyes and kissed her forehead. "It's alright, we'll be there soon my love." came a gentle deep voice. Picking her up bridle style she screamed in agony. He kissed her temple and took off at top speed. The wind lulled her to sleep.

END FLASHBACK:

Taking a deep breath, she groaned. Kagome had no idea what to do. She couldn't get up and look for Inuyasha. Oh my god, what happened to him? I don't remember him when I woke up! What if he died? It would be all my fault. I'll never be able to live with myself again!

Her body racked with sobs as she thought about her lost love. Everything he had given for her, all the problems she would always end up causing him. Her thoughts were cast aside as the large metal door creaked open to reveal a menacing shadow. It strode towards her and stroked her cheek.

"Hush my darling, you'll be all healed soon enough." he whispered.

She couldn't make out his face, it was all shadows. But his voice, somehow it was soothing. She knew she was in no danger at all.

"The hanyou will live…Although," he broke off and gripped the table, claws digging into the metal frame. His glance shifted downward. "I wish he wouldn't," then he looked into her eyes and he smiled, revealing a pearly white fang. "It would be so much easier if he wasn't around. But I know how much you love him my dear. I couldn't live with myself if I knew that I could have saved your happiness." Walking towards the cabinet in the corner she noticed a few things about him. If she squinted her eyes just right she could see, well just barely, what he was wearing. It was a spectacular kimono, like the one Sesshomaru wore. Except this stranger's was plain. It was white with a little vine of blue tracing the seams of the sleeves. The sash was blue also.

"Kagome, do you know who I am?" His deep voice echoed through the room and startled Kagome. She was pulled from her trance and thought about what he asked her.

"No. Can you please take me to Inuyasha?"

"Not now. All in good time, my dear, all in good time."

"Why can't I move? Did you drug me? Why can't I see Inuyasha?"

"You are paralyzed because I do not want you to be in anymore pain. If I take you to that half-breed, then your life will surely be in danger."

"You don't know that! He has saved me so many times! Without him, I'd be dead!" she screamed, not meaning too. But after he spat out the word half-breed, her anger was out of control. He must be a full-demon. Otherwise he wouldn't have fangs or have such little respect for hanyous.

"Who are you?" Kagome questioned, no longer straining to see his face.

He walked over to her bed and began to remove her bandages.

"My name is Sasuke." He slowly lifted up her frail body and pulled the bandage out from under her. His hands then made their way to a bottle that he had pulled out of the cabinet. Tipping over the small bottle, pills covered his large hand.

"Here take this." pulling a pill from the pile on his hand he popped one in her mouth and she swallowed.

Kagome's body reacted instantly. Her body began to regain feeling. Why is he doing this for me? Her hand crept over to one of his and gently touched it. All of his movements stopped as he looked at the hand. Then immediately took it in his own.

"Kagome, I. I'm sorry we had to meet again under these terms." A sigh escaped his lips.

"Again?" The word escaped her lips before she even realized it.

"Yes, don't you remember?"

"No, I'm sorry" Groaning she sat up. Blood began to trickle from her wounds. She cried out and grabbed his shoulders for support. He pulled her close to his body.

Her arms wrapped around his body and she inhaled his scent. He smells kind of like Inuyasha. Why? Her mind went blank as she let sleep claim her in this strange man's arms.
