Chapter 2: Shocking Discovery

Inuyasha's POV

Five years… It has been five years since I joined the Coast Guard and I absolutely love it. Two years after I moved here I met a girl that looked exactly like Kagome but wore clothes a lot more revealing than she would have. I didn't like how much skin Kikyo was showing… but if it got my mind off of the only girl I loved then I would take it and use it to my advantage.

So Kikyo and I have been together for about three years, everything going smooth. She is an actor and model so that keeps her busy half of the time, but I'm glad that she isn't around a lot because she loves to pick fights with me and be absolutely annoying as hell. And I hate that in a woman.

I rolled over as my phone sounded on the table next to the bed and I growled before picking it up to answer it. "Hello, Inuyasha Takahashi speaking." I said groggily.

"Ah Inuyasha I'm glad to get you, we have an emergency out here at the coast, how soon can you be here?" My Admiral asked.

I looked behind me where Kikyo's sleeping form was supposed to be. She wasn't there and I just shrugged it off because she must have left early for her job. "I can be there as soon as I get up and put my uniform on and ready to go. So about ten minutes." I replied.

"Okay good, see you there Captain." He said.

"Yes, goodbye sir." I said hanging up the phone and rubbing my eyes before standing up to go get my uniform out of the closet. I took out my navy blue pants and coast guard shirt along with the jacket that went with it. I put the shirt on first followed by the jacket and I buttoned it up so that I could tuck them both in my pants at the same time, followed by the black belt I had to have on. After my uniform looked fine I went to the mirror to brush all of knots out of my hair and then I brushed it back into a low ponytail. (A/N In coast guard you are supposed to have your hair cut very short or shaved off, but in this story it isn't going to be like that with Inuyasha!!) I took my cap off of the shelf in my closet and put it on my head. Ready to go.

I grabbed my keys, locked the house up and headed out to my Impala that I traded my Mercedes in for. As I got into the car I buckled up and I was on my way to the job that I loved.


10 minutes later

I parked my car in the parking lot by the harbor and ran out with my vest in hand. As soon as I got close to the rescue boat I saw my commander. "Inuyasha Takahashi reporting for duty sir." I said saluting to him.

"Good! Bout time we get someone out here that knows what he's doing. Now you see that rescue boat Captain?" He asked. I nodded. "Okay put on your vest and get on that boat. They are about ready to leave."

"Yes sir." I said running to get on the boat before they took off. And luckily I did cause as soon as I boarded they took off. I was looking around and I spotted one of my buddies. "Miroku!" I said getting his attention.

He looked at me and smiled. "Inuyasha glad to have you here!" He said.

"Yeah. What happened? Why'd we all get rushed out here?" I asked.

"Oh, well there was a ship that has crashed close by here. We have to go out and rescue a few more people that the others haven't gotten to yet. They cleared it up a bit before you got here, but the lower ranking people on this boat are still training so we needed you to command us." He said.

"What do you mean Miroku? You're a Lieutenant why wouldn't they put you in charge?" I asked.

"Because I am only a Lieutenant Commander, and you are a Captain. You have done a lot more things and commanded more people than I could. You take your missions way more seriously than anyone here below you. You are important to our Admiral, Inuyasha, so therefore he wants you to be here to help lead these sort of things." He said finishing up as we reached the last few people that we needed to rescue.

"Okay. Each of you, throw these lifesavers out to each person and have them hold on. There are enough of you out there that we should only have to throw one each, so if I see one of you slacking don't think I wont tell the Admiral. Now get to work!" I yelled to them.

They all said 'Yes sir!' and began throwing the lifesavers out to the people, Miroku and myself also threw one out to get two girls that were huddled together floating.

"Alright everyone do you all have your person?" I asked.

"Yes Sir!" They all said back.

"Okay now start bringing them in!" I said. They all followed my commands and Miroku and myself started pulling ours in as well but we both noticed that the gal I had wasn't responding. "Miroku I'm going to have to go out there and get her." I said to him out loud.

"But Inuyasha it's dangerous! You have all your clothes on." He said helping the young lady that he had saved get over the side of the boat.

"I don't care. If it means saving someone I don't care if I get hurt in the process. Just pull us both back in once I get the lifesaver around her okay?" I asked.

He nodded. "Yes Captain."

I removed my jacket and belt, as well as my cap before jumping into the freezing water. I swam quickly over to the woman just to find that she had been unconscious. I gently put the lifesaver around her and gave Miroku the thumbs up to pull us both in. As he got us both back up there and helped me up, I bent over to pick the women up.

"Okay look out everyone! I have to do CPR on this woman." I said as I cleared her dark brown hair from her face to reveal someone I never thought I would see ever again… Kagome… "Oh god…" I said shaking.

"What? What's wrong Inuyasha?" Miroku asked.

"KAGOME!" The woman in his arms screamed while looking at Kagome with tears in her eyes.

"Woah, calm down miss. Inuyasha will take good care of your friend Kagome…wait…Kagome… as in Kagome Higurashi? Your ex girlfriend Inuyasha?" Miroku asked shocked.

I nodded, still looking at the woman before me. I tilted her head back opened her mouth and pinched her nose, starting to give her CPR but she wasn't budging. I did it over and over again, but still no response. "Come on Kagome." I said as I pushed on her chest again trying to force some water out. I tilted her head back and pinched her nose while breathing into her mouth again, and this time to my luck she started coughing up water and gasping for breath. I helped her to sit up as she finished hacking her lungs up and I looked at her. "Are you okay Miss?" I asked.

She looked up at me, and her eyes widened. "Inuyasha…I-I'm fine I guess." She replied looking away.

I put my hand on the side of her face and made her look at me. "Don't lie to me. Are you really okay?" I asked.

"I'm fine. I'm…just a little light headed and tired. I don't feel good." She replied.

I looked at her in shock and hugged her. "You stupid wench, you aren't okay at all. You probably just inhaled way too much of that salt water. Try not to go to sleep okay?" I asked.

I felt her nod her head a little and I smiled as I laid her back down and Miroku brought me a blanket to cover her with until we got back to the harbor. I stood up and looked down at her, her eyes were glued to me, watching my every move. But I couldn't let that distract me, I had to command the rest of my crew to do what they were supposed to do.

"Okay everyone!" I yelled gaining everyone's attention. "The show is over with me, get back to your own person and ask them if they are okay. Ask them if they feel like they have any side affects. If they are cold get a blanket from the kit and lay them down and put the blanket over them. If their hot help cool them down by putting a cool compress on their forehead. And etc. If you need anything just ask the officers on the boat. Do you understand?" I asked.

"Aye sir!" They all said back before getting back to what I told them to do.

I sat back down and looked at Kagome. She looked like she was trying really hard not to fall asleep and I smiled at her. "You can sleep if you want, I'm going to have to keep waking you up to make sure that nothing is the matter though." I said.

"You have…gotten really far up with this." She said.

"Huh?" I looked at her weird.

"With Coast Guard. It has only been five years and you have already gotten up so high as to command everyone on the boat. I'm impressed." She said closing her eyes.

"Baka. I work really hard for where I am." I said. She didn't answer so I assumed that she had fallen asleep so I turned toward Miroku and the woman he was with that appeared to know Kagome. I stood and walked over to them and sat down again. "Hello Miss." I said lightly.

"Hello." She said looking at me.

"May I ask your name please?" I asked.

"Y-yes. My name is Sango. And I know you are going to ask, so I know Kagome because we are teachers." She said.

"Ah. But may I ask what two teachers are doing on a ship on a weekday?" I said looking at her curiously.

"Well Kagome has been working very hard since the first day that I met her. She said something about wanting to graduate college and work her way up at the schools in Japan so that she could transfer to America. I don't know why she wanted to transfer to here, but all I know is that I had promised her that wherever she went that I would follow because we had become such good friends." She said. "So the other day she finally got her wish and she was promoted to come here to America, San Diego California to be exact, to teach kindergarten. So of course I came. And you should know about the boat, and here we are…" she finished.

I nodded. "I see. Well, I am Inuyasha, and this is my friend Miroku. I used to be Kagome's boyfriend for three years, that is why I was curious about why you guys were here, I'm going to take Kagome to a clinic to get checked out and by the time we get done there it's going to be dinner time, so I will just probably have her stay at my house until tomorrow. Miroku could get you a hotel or you could just stay with him, he lives a few houses down from me so its not like you couldn't come and see Kagome tomorrow so you guys can leave. But is that okay?" I asked.

She nodded. "Yes of course, I want the best for Kagome." She said.

I nodded and smiled. Looking back I noticed that we were just getting into the harbor so I went back over to Kagome to pick her up. 'So light.' I thought to myself. I let everyone off of the ship before me. So Miroku, Sango, Kagome and me were the last ones off the ship.

"Good job Takahashi." The Admiral said. "Oh and who is this young lady? Is she okay?" He asked.

I nodded. "Old time friend, I'm going to take her to the clinic to get checked out. Call me if you need anything else Sir." I replied.

He nodded. "Okay bye Captain."

As soon as I got to my car I sat Kagome in the passenger seat and said goodbye to Miroku and Sango. I then walked around to the drivers side and got in, driving off to the closest hospital.


San Diego Hospital

After I parked the car I got out and went to the passenger seat to get Kagome out. She was slowly waking up and when she did her eyes opened to look at me. "Where am I?" She asked.

"The hospital. I want to make sure you're okay. It wouldn't look good if the woman I saved was hurt." I replied to her.

"Oh…" Was all she said before resting her head against me and being quiet for the rest of the time.

Once into the doctors office he check everything, her heart beat, blood pressure, and all of that good stuff and then looked at me. "She seems fine, though I did hear some weezing when she was breathing for me and her blood pressure is a little bit high. So I am going to go get some medication for her and I will be right back." He said turning to leave, but Kagome grabbed his jacket.

"I-I cant afford and medication at the moment doctor. So don't worry about it, I will be fine." She said quietly.

"Nonsense." I added in. "Go ahead doc, I'll pay for whatever it is she needs." He nodded and left the room to go get the inhaler and the pills for her blood pressure.

"Why did you do that?" She asked.

"What do you mean?" I said.

"Why did you say you would pay for my medication? I didn't want you doing that, its just more that I have to repay you for." She said.

"No, you don't have to repay me at all, I'm just doing you a favor since I couldn't get to you sooner." I added.

She kept quiet and then she looked at me. "Thank you." She replied as the doctor came back in with the prescriptions.

"Okay here they are. So, that would be a total of 315.78 dollars." The doctor said.

"Oh my god that's expensive! Inuyasha! No don't get it its okay I don't need it!" She exclaimed.

"Would you just hush wench?" I snapped. "I said I would get it for you, and I'm going to stick with my word." I said handing the doctor the money and taking the medication bag. "Any other prescriptions that she may need in the future, feel free to bill it to my house." I said.

"Y-yes Mr.Takahashi." The doctor said.

"Well then, have a nice day. Come on Kagome." I said leaving the room with her not too far behind me.

We walked out to my car, got in and headed to my house. As soon as we got there I unlocked the door and let her in. "Sorry it's a mess. I'm not really home a lot." I said.

"It's okay. Thank you for letting me stay here for the night." She said shyly going to sit on my bed.

I walked towards her and smiled she changed so much. Her hair that had been only to her mid-back five years ago was now past that plump ass of hers that I loved. Her breasts have grown from 36B to at least a 38D. Just everything about her was screaming womanhood. I finally caught myself staring at her, basically drooling and shook my head, looking back into her eyes, only to find that she too was staring at me.


Kagome's POV

I watched Inuyasha staring before me and I couldn't help but to notice just how much he changed and where he changed. He still had on his uniform but you could defiantly see his muscles on his arms from under the short sleeve shirt, and then his well-defined abs popping out from beneath it. His hair had been cut a little bit shorter so that it was fully straight instead of slightly curling in at the ends like it used to, and then his ass. Oh god his ass. I looked back up at his eyes and he was staring at me. Other than the changes that I listed he was basically the same demon I had dated five years ago. Same blood Red Crescent moon on his forehead unlike his brothers who's was light blue. And the same blue stripe on each side of his face and on his wrists. The only other things that could have possibly changed was his deeper voice and his attitude towards others had gotten better from going through Coast Guard training.

I stopped staring at him and shook my head from my thoughts. He smiled and leaned in closer to me, his lips inching their way closer and closer to mine. But there was something stopping me from kissing him, something that had been bugging me for two-and-a-half to three years. "Why did you stop writing me?" I asked.

He stopped inching closer to me and looked in my eyes. "I don't know." He said.

"Of course you know! I wrote you back last telling you good luck and for you to write me back after you got out of training and you never did!" I said.

"Maybe I didn't want to. I had better things to do." He replied.

"I see." I said dropping the subject.

He backed away and looked at me, he was getting ready to come back with another remark when his phone started singing… "You can't take away my strength, Fix these broken veins, Nothing left to fight. You can't take away my strength, Fix these broken veins, There's nothing left to fight, Live free or let me die, You can't take away my pride, I won't be denied, there's nothing left to fight, Nothing left to fight, Nothing left to fight, Life free or let me die, Live free or let me die, Live free or let me die."

He took the phone out of his pocket and flipped it open. "Hello? Oh hey. Yeah sorry I got called out for a mission kind of thing. Yeah I know. You want me now? Well I'm with a rescued person. Why now? Fine. Yeah. Bye." He said hanging up the phone and looking at me. "I have to go." He said.

"You're leaving me here by myself?" I asked.

"Yeah." He replied.

"I don't know where anything is. I thought you were going to spend time with me and make sure I'm okay." I said.

"You're fine. This is an emergency." He said turning around to grab his jacket and leave.

Before he had the chance to walk another step away I grabbed his sleeve. "Don't leave me." I said.

He looked back at me shocked. "I have to. That was my girlfriend." He replied.

I looked at him in shock and then quickly retreated my hand from his jacket. "Go ahead and go then. Leave me here." I said.

He didn't say anything else, he just started walking and before I knew it his car was started and I heard his wheels squeak as he turned the corner.

'A girlfriend?' I thought. 'I wonder what she's like….'
