Commense CHAPTER 13


Chapter 13: The Truth

(This is still Sango POV)

Inuyasha and I had gotten a hold of Miroku a few minutes ago. I filled him in on everything and he said he's be right over. Inuyasha was waiting near the entrance of the ER so that he could lead Miroku up to the room. I was lounging in a chair near Kagome's door with Souta in my lap. I ran my fingers through the boys hair as he cried. Kohaku and Kina found us a while ago but I told them to wait in the waiting room. Now wasn't a good time to be bothered for any of us.

"Sango?" Souta finally moved to stand up.

"What is it Souta?" I asked, sympathy lacing through my voice.

"I can sense Miroku. It's time." His eyes were as cold as stone.

I nodded in response. I knew Souta was hurting. His older sister was the only thing he had left. If she didn't pull through he'd surely go through treacherous extents to revive her which was VERY illegal for anyone to try and do. A moment later Miroku and Inuyasha were next to us.

"You ready, guys?" Inuyasha asked in a serious tone.

Miroku and Souta nodded. Souta opened the door to Kagome's room and the process began.

Miroku and Souta moved all of the doctors out of their way and began to use their spiritual powers on Kagome's body. She was a bloody mess and her body was still convulsing. Miroku strapped her to the bed before they began.

"No one touch her!" Miroku yelled to all of us in the room that were watching the scene unfold.

Miroku looked at Kagome's opened wounds and focused all of his powers there. He told Souta to use his powers to make her relax. Souta did as told and Kagome eventually stopped her convulsing. I could see her wounds start to close up when Souta joined his powers with Miroku's. Once her wound was closed the boys made sure it was going to stay that way.

"I need to figure out why her powers were failing her.." Miroku started but her stopped when Kagome twitched.


(BACK TO KAGOME POV)

I feel cold. Everything around me is white and I shiver at the emptiness that surrounds me.

"Hello? Is anyone here?" I yell.

But I know that I am all alone. Once the realization of my loneliness hits me I start to cry. I try to stop the tears but they keep flowing and eventually my knees buckle and I fall to the floor. Where is everybody? Just a moment ago I was in the hospital with them all! Then I get an epiphany. I must be dead. Is this what death is? An eternal loneliness? This makes me cry even more. Was I to spend the rest of eternity wallowing in self pity? Where is this God everyone told me about? Is this what mama and grampa are experiencing too? I start to get hysterical.

"I wanna go home!" I scream through my wretched sobbing.

I blinding blue light suddenly appears in front of me. I immediately stop my persistent crying and sit up straight. I throw my arms in front of my face to block the light that is blinding me. Eventually the light fades and woman stands before me. She has midnight black hair like mine and Souta's and she wear traditional miko garb but armor is attached to it.

"Hello my child." She speaks to me finally.

I am so awe-struck that I can't speak. She smiles knowingly and takes my hand. She helps me stand before looking me in the eyes.

"It's so wonderful to finally meet my daughter." She smiles wide.

"What?" This woman is not my mother! Or.. is she?

She laughs a little before embracing me. What the hell is happening? Strangely, I feel myself hug her back. Am I that lonely that I am going to hug some crazy woman claiming to be my mother? Have I been here that long wallowing in loneliness? The woman pulls back and stares at me.

"My name is Midoriko."

I stand there with wide eyes. The great miko warrior Midoriko is claiming to be my mother. "Bu-but.. how? What?"

"I gave birth to you and your younger brother more than 500 years ago. I sent you both here once I found that your father had planned to kill us. That is why you have no memories of your life before you were four. Let me give them back to you." She pressed her fingers to my forehead and I felt my memories flow through my entire being.

She was telling the truth. She did give birth to Souta and I. I saw her telling both of that she loved us very much before sending us with wiped memories to the Higurashi Shrine.

"So that means Souta and I have no relation to the Higurashi's..." I was extremely saddened.

"NO!" My mother shook her head, "They are in our bloodline. I sent you with my family that made it through 500 years!" This made me less sad.

Finally I ask the question raoring through my thoughts. "Who is my father..?" I ask her.

She looks away before she finally answers.

"You have heard of the great demon Magtsuhi, yes?" She asks me.

I nod my head not knowing why she's ask that question. Magatsuhi was the demon who killed her. He was dreadful!

"Kagome.." She falters before continuing, "Magatsuhi is yours and Souta's father."

Time stops. I can finally feel some of his evil blood in my veins once she tells me. I look at her trying to search her eyes for any lies. There are none. Only truth holds her expression.

"You are meant to do great thing Kagome. I am sorry I have taken you from your body for the moment, there are just some things you needed to know. Please tell Souta.. I love you my daughter. I will visit you again very soon." and just like that, she's gone.

"WAIT!" I call out to her but she's already gone.

The next thing I know my eyes snap open and everything is fuzzy. I have no idea where I am. I start to move but I am restrained. My struggling and thrashing begins.

"Wait! Come back!" I yell, hoping my mother will hear me.

The next thing I know, someone's face is hovering over mine. I start screaming because I can't move and the person is getting closer. What if it's my father? What if he came back for me like my mother? She said he tried to kill all of us! Maybe he's come back to finish the job! I don't stop screaming. Tears drip into my face but they're not mine. I open my eyes again and see Souta leaned over me crying.

"Sis?" He cries.

"Souta?" I whimper.

Souta quickly undoes my bindings and pulls me into a tight embrace.

"Kagome." He sobs, "I was so scared!" He breaks.

Souta crumples into my arms and I encircle my arms around his body tightly. I sense everyone leave the room to give my brother and myself some time. Eventually I start crying too.

"I love you, sis.." Souta whispers in my ear.

I nuzzle him and say, "I love you too, Souta."


After a few minutes of crying I decide to erect a sound proof barrier. I pull Souta away from me and motion for him to sit across frm me on the bed.

"Souta I need to tell you something.." I start.

Souta gets worried instantly, "What is it sis? Are you in pain?"

"No! Souta.." I tell him everything I was told by Midoriko aka our birth mother.

"I could see Midoriko because of our immense powers but Magatsuhi.. Now that you mention it I can feel his evil barely flowing through me. " Souta tells me.

"I felt the same thing." I can se the confusion in his eyes.

"Does this mean our father is coming for us like mother is? Maybe he wants to finish the job and kill us. Why else would she tell us the truth out of nowhere?" Souta ponders out loud.

'The Jewel' A voice echoes through my head.

"The.. Jewel?" I whisper.
