Chapter 11
~*~
Kagome lay on the hospital bed propped up on pillows. Those damn people wouldn't let her sleep. She looked at the remote at her bedside, and then at the furthest reach her hand could go. She looked at the huge gap between the two. Damn bakas didn't even have the common courtesy to pass her the remote for the TV!!!
She began mumbling about stupid hospital staff and TV remotes before her gaze fell upon her casted (word?) right arm.
"I have to get outta here," she thought aloud, before beginning to pluck the different needles and patches off of her body. She was slightly annoyed by the heart monitor that kept beeping then she wanted to smack it because as she removed the patch from her body the beeping turned into a long annoying drone. Signifying she was `dead'.
She threw off the covering and hopped of the bed, slightly wincing at the small throbs of pain she was feeling. Slowly, she walked over to the door and tried to quietly open it. But the damned thing squeaked so loudly, it could wake the dead! She looked out into the darkened corridor, empty and still, perfect for escape.
She went back into the room and swung the door swiftly as if the slam it then silently locked it, receiving a small almost inaudible squeak from the piece of wood.
Coming from her silent victory world, Kagome turned toward her bed and was bombarded with the annoying sounds of the machines she was attached to. With an audible sigh, she made her way to the close and changed into her uniform. Then went to plug out the stupid machines, to her dismay, they were battery operated and to open that area you needed a screwdriver, and being a former patient, she didn't have a screwdriver.
She went back over to the door and swung it open, it slipped through her hand and hit the wall with a resounding `bang'.
"Damnit" she silently cursed before heading for the hall, that sound was most likely to attract attention.
She walked briskly down the dark seemingly endless hallway, taking corners here and there, why did she have the sudden feeling of walking through a maze? And why did she have to be on the 5th floor?!?
Silently cursing yet thankful, she entered an empty elevator. She pressed the button for the ground floor and watched as the doors closed. She slightly winced at the `ping' sound it made. Does everything have to be so damn loud??
The contraption stopped with a `ping' and a disturbing jerk. Kagome sighed and poked her head out the door. She hoped, no she pray to whatever gods were listening to not let anyone be doing his or her rounds now.
Seeing no one, she got out and walked down a hall, hoping it led to `out'. Oh how the gods hated her, just as she was to walk past a closed elevator shaft, the thing `pinged' annoyingly and the doors began opening. Kagome dove into the nearest door she saw then closed it. She didn't see the little sign on the wall that read `Autopsies'.
She peeped through the small window and saw a doctor figure, absorbed in a book, walk in the opposite direction. She felt cold, sand she had the sudden urge to gag. She looked behind her and almost did gag; there were dead bodies with metal THINGS sticking out of them behind her.
Composing herself, she made sure the doctor had gone before leaving the room and not looking back.

A doctor opened the door to Kagome's `room' he was immediately assaulted with the high-pitched drone (that sounds wrong drones are low sounds…. Oh well it stays) of the heart monitor. The sound alerted him from his musings. He, thinking that his patient had probably fallen asleep and died, rushed into the room to find an empty bed.
He ran out of the room and to the nearest elevator.

Kagome finally found the way out. She tried the front glass doors but scowled when they didn't budge. She pulled and pushed on the door, but nothing. She stood there, hand on the handle of the door. There was a loud `ping' of an elevator; she wheeled round to see a slight light coming from the opening doors of the nearest elevator. Thinking quickly, she dove to the side behind a wall concealing her in the darkness, she made a slight groan as her knee came in contact with the ground but other than that no sounds spewed forth.
The doctor walked from the elevator, looking franticly for the missing patient. There was a small noise akin to a groan coming from the emergency exit, he looked over and saw nothing. Dismissing it as paranoia, he continued his search.
Kagome let out the breath she didn't realize she was holding when the doctor went back to searching. She stood up and dusted herself off. She just happened to look up and see the emergency entrance/exit sign. She could just hear the hallelujah chorus. She slipped through the door and stood up on the ambulance entrance and smiled to herself. She was free.

sora: I fell asleep right here -.-;;;
sess: I still cant believe u did that, you spend the entire day doing nothing everyday!!
sora: hey, doing nothing requires a lot of concentration and strength you know. Not every one can pull it off. And besides its very tiring.
Kag: oh boy. Back to the fic. I wanna see what happens to me next. Did you know that diving onto that COLD tile in my uniform was harsh!!

Kagome walked down two main roads,
Destination: her school (no its not so she can be early the next day)
Reason being: to get her car.
She walked into the desolate area, known as her school's parking lot at night. She walked up to the only car there and tried the door. It was locked.
Where were her keys? Oh yeah now she remembered, she was spinning them on her finger, before she was jumped. So they were probably still on the south building corridor. She sighed, exasperated and tired, also her feet were also killing her! But she just wanted to, no needed to get away. So with another heavy sigh, she began her trek to the south.

`OK. I'm in the south building. Now, which hall???' She was looking down three halls from the fork that she currently stood in. each hall looking as dreary and dark as the last. `I remember there were classes on either side of me, so I guess that narrows it down to the middle hall.'
Nodding at her memory, she took the hall straight in front of her.
Sure enough, she walked down the hall the same way she did just hours before: pulling her fingers along the lockers. She kicked something. It jingled. Yup she found her keys.
She bent to pick them up, her fingers dipped in a semi-wet dark substance, was it blood? Shrugging and straightening, she went back to her car.

she drove down the main road, passing the hospital, but not before showing the building `the finger'. She drove passed the city limits, past the `Welcome To Torimaya' sign. She allowed a small smile to creep up on her face, why not visit her cousin Ayame for a while. She looked at the clock in her car, 2:10am. Hmm a wake up call would be good.

*the next day*
True to their word, the gang skipped school to go visit Kagome. (with the exception on Sesshomaru (who couldn't care less) and Rin (who was still sleeping)). They stepped in and the place was in utter chaos.
"What's going on?" Sango asked a nurse who was running franticly past them
"A patient is missing." She said out of breath, apparently glad for the reason to stop.
"What do you mean?"
"She seemed to have run away this morning at around 12:30"
Inuyasha's head jerked to the current conversation. "She? What do yu mean she? Who is it?"
"The patient's name is Higurashi -"
"What???" the group said. Everyone froze and looked at them
"YOU LET HER LEAVE?!?!?!?!?!" Inuyasha raged.
"N-no she ran off. Clever girl that one"
"A little too clever. Damn it, does anyone know where she would have gone?" he asked the gang. The nurse took that as her cue to leave and slowly backed away from the group of teens.
"Nope"
"Uh uh"
"No"
"Shit"
