º"Ah! Inuyasha! There you are, would you mind setting the table for me?" Kagome asked gently as she turned around.

"Uh sure, hey why are there only two place settings?" He eyed her curiously.

"Oh. My family went out tonight so it's just you and me. Which is actually kind of convenient because now we can talk. After dinner, we're going to talk… about my future, possibly our future."º

Inuyasha gulped. "Our future?"

"Yes, but enough about that, that's for after dinner. Right now I need to know whether or not you want soy sauce on your rice or not." Kagome changed the subject strategically.

"Oh, uh yea sure. So, what else are we having?" Inuyasha asked, as he could smell a variety of appetizing aromas coming from just about everywhere in the kitchen.

"Well, we had a lot of food, since I just went shopping so I made, Okonomiyaki*, Maguro and Ika Sashimi*, Wasabi*, Tsukimi Udon*, and Ramen of course!" Kagome said cheerfully as she began to scoop out the different foods onto several different serving dishes.

"Kagome we're never going to eat all of that." Inuyasha said once he had digested just what Kagome had said.

"It's not just for us, once we eat here, we're going to save it and bring it back to the Feudal Era tonight. We need to discuss with the others what to do about my condition." Kagome explained.

"You make it sound as though I got you pregnant." Inuyasha smirked.

Kagome's eye twitched. "Would you mind repeating that?"

"Don't hurt me, it was just the way you said that, phrasing it with "my condition." Anyway your condition doesn't seem so fatal to me. I mean look you've been near me all night and you haven't sneezed once. I don't trust the healers in your time, they don't know what they're talking about."

"Inuyasha, baka*! Have you already forgotten that you're human tonight?! And besides I think that my doctor is correct My once only sneezes have turned into wheezes and coughs as well." Kagome stated. Inuyasha was about to argue when a loud ringing caught him off guard causing him to jump at least five feet into the air and hit his head on the kitchen ceiling lamp. "Shit! What the hell was that?!" He cursed.

"Relax Inuyasha, it's just the phone." Kagome replied and then went off to answer the constant ringing machine. Inuyasha being as curious as a three year old followed her into the living room where she was holding a plastic blob to her ear. And was speaking into it.

"Hello? Oh! Dr. Takahashi, how are you?

I'm fine.

Yea they've been getting a bit worse with Inuyasha in the house.

Oh… I didn't tell you about him? Ummm… he's my, dog! Yea that's it. He can be a pest but I don't want to get rid of him."

Inuyasha growled at this.

"I know that my allergy is serious but-- but we've had him for so long…

A treatment? Really? Yea. Ok. I'll see you tomorrow.

What? Why can't Inuyasha be inside of the house?

But-

Yes, but-

Ok. Fine I'll see you tomorrow."

"What was that all about, and why am I your dog?!" Inuyasha asked angrily.

"Oh. Inuyasha, I have wonderful news! There may be a treatment. Come we have to discuss this with every one!" Kagome ran off to pack the food, even though none of them had eaten and left Inuyasha to follow in her wake.

*~@~*

After packing up all of the food and keeping out a tiny bit for themselves, Kagome and Inuyasha climbed down the ladder into the Bone Eater's Well, picnic baskets in hand. After reaching the Sengoku Jidai, they started to head off towards the village.

"So Kagome, what kind of treatment is it?" Inuyasha asked curiously.

"Actually I'm not sure… the treatment it self isn't fully ready to be sold yet… I'll kind of be an experiment." Kagome said unsurely.

"You mean you don't even know what the stuff will do to you? DO you know how dangerous that is?!" Inuyasha shouted.

"Inuyasha I am fully aware of tha- achoo! We'll discuss-cough- this later. Wheeze."

"Kagome what's wrong? I'm human right now... the only other… Sesshomaru! Show yourself!" Inuyasha shouted.

Kagome continues to have an attack as the demon lord himself steps out of the shadows.

"Sesshomaru, wheeze, why now?" Kagome tried to speak, was it just her or was her throat getting tighter?

"What's wrong with your wench little brother?" Sesshomaru asked in his bone chilling tone.

"Sesshomaru, I'll fight you anytime you want just not here, not now." Inuyasha said pushing away his anger and trying tom compromise.

"Cough, Cough I-Inuyasha. Wheeze" Kagome stumbled, her vision was becoming blurry why couldn't she get enough air?

"Kagome! Sesshomaru. I'm going to the village." Said Inuyasha as he went to pick up the struggling girl only to be blocked by his half brother.

"You will go no where until I know the limits of your strength, during the night of the full moon.

"Sesshomaru back off now!!!!!!!!!!! I don't have time for this!" Inuyasha tried to move around The other demon, only to struck at by the said demon's poison claw.

'why can't I breathe?! Somebody help me! Inuyasha help me!' But Kagome, not possessing the power to communicate telepathically, could do nothing but wheeze and cough… her final word was a call out to the one who always saved her… "Inuyasha!" And she gave in to the darkness that soon surrounded her.

"Kagome!!!!!!!!!!!!! Inuyasha never saw the figure that was Sesshomaru just about to strike or the familiar silhouette that was on the horizon.
