Chapter 13: Kagome

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Oh friggin God." Kagome's face looked terrible. Her eyes were black, bruises on her face made her face look black, and dried blood from her nose made her cheeks bloody red. "Oh, God." InuYasha left Kagome's room shocked and dumbfounded.

Miroku saw the look on InuYasha's face and went into Kagome's room. "DAMN!" Miroku came out and went over to his friend. "InuYasha I'm sorry." Sango thinking that it couldn't be that bad went into Kagome's room.

"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" Sango let out a high-pitched scream. "Oh Kagome who would do this to you? You are such a good friend," Sango started sobbing. InuYasha and Miroku went into Kagome's room to comfort Sango. Kagome was Sango's best friend.

"InuYasha who would do this to Kagome?" Said Sango her face streaked with tears. Miroku, who had walked over to Kagome, looked at something.

"You guys come look at this on Kagome's leg."

"YOU HENTAI!" Sango said smacking him. "HOW CAN YOU DO THAT TO POOR KAGOME!?!"

Miroku rubbed his cheek. "I wasn't doing that..."

"Sure sure."

"I didn't mean it that way..." Sango started chasing Miroku around and everyone completely forgot about the thing on Kagome's leg.

InuYasha walked up to his mother who had just managed to get a cot for Kagome's mother. "Don't let her see Kagome. It will destroy her."

"Is it that bad Inu?"

"Yes mom it is." InuYasha told his mom what Kagome looked like and she had the same expression he himself had, had. "Oh mom i don't know what to do. I love Kagome so much. What happens if she doesn't make it...?"InuYasha started sobbing into his mother's arm.

"InuYasha Kagome is a strong girl. I'm sure she'll make it." InuYasha's mother said to him, but she wasn't so sure herself.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The group stayed at the hospital all night. Eventually Mrs. Higurashi had woken up and demanded to see her daughter. InuYasha didn't want her to, but she wouldn't go until she had seen her daughter for herself. "Oh Kagome..." Mrs. Higurashi said on the verge of tears. "Not you too. Please don't die." Mrs. Higurashi remembered fifteen years ago when she had stood at a hospital bed like this one.

*******FlashBack********

"Oh, Marc don't die! Please don't die!" Mrs. Higurashi looked at her husband. His face was grotesquely bloated and blood on his face made him look healthy.

He opened one eye and tried to talk. "Caitriona..."

"Yes Marc?"

"Take care of Kagome..."

"Marc! Don't leave! Please! I still need you! Kagome still needs you!"

Kagome hearing her name, started talking. "Daddy when you get better lets go to the bank. I like those machines. They are fun."

Caitriona crouched down so she was level with her young daughter. "Kagome, Daddy isn't coming back. He's gone," Caitriona choked on a sob. "For good."

"Daddy can't be gone! He can't be gone! When is he coming back?" asked Kagome refusing to believe that her father was dead.

"He's not coming back Kagome..."

"NO!" Kagome ran out of the room. Caitriona stood up and felt something kick in her belly.

"Oh God. I'm pregnant." She groaned, than went after Kagome. She found her in the nursery in a corner crying. "Kagome I'm sorry."

Kagome crawled into her mother's arms and started sobbing. After awhile Mrs. Higurashi started crying too.

*******End of FlashBack**********

Mrs. Higurashi choked on a sob so InuYasha's mother led her out. "Aikaterine what will I do if Kagome dies?" Mrs. Higurashi started sobbing.

"Caitriona, you have to be strong. For Souta."

"Ok."

"Good Girl."

"Thank you Aikaterine." Caitriona stifled a sob and got up. "I should go find Souta. He loved his older sister so much." Mrs. Higurashi went off to find her son, Souta.

Mrs. Higurashi found Souta crying in the nursery, in a corner. Her sense of deja vu was overwhelming. "Souta." Mrs. Higurashi rushed over to her young son and held him in her arms.

"Mommy, I don't want Kagome to die." Caitriona felt her wrench.

"Kagome won't die hunny. She's strong." Caitriona thought of four months ago when Kagome was yelling up the stairs asking where her backpack was. "She's very strong."

"Mommy, I said something to her I feel so bad."

"What did you say to her?"

"I told her that she wasn't the best big sister in the world." Souta started sobbing.

"Souta did you mean it?"

"No."

"Than don't worry about it. Kagome would never hold a grudge against you for something like that."

"Really mommy?"

"Really." Caitriona picked her son up in her arms and held him, gently rocking him to sleep.

"Mommy I'll try not to die." Caitriona felt her wrench.

"I know Souta."

InuYasha sat by Kagome's bed holding her hand. "Oh Kagome please wake up. Everyone misses you so much. No one wants you to die." InuYasha started crying. "Kagome I definitely don't want you to die."

Miroku and Sango walked into the room followed by Mrs. Higurashi with Souta in her arms and InuYasha's mother. "InuYasha lets go. Its six o'clock. We can come back later."

"I don't want to leave her."

"I don't either but we all have to get some sleep and open the Christmas presents." Miroku and Sango looked at each other.

"Mrs. Higurashi how about we wait until Kagome wakes up to open the Christmas presents."

"That's a good idea. But we still have to eat." InuYasha looked at Kagome's mother. From somewhere deep inside She had called upon strength to get her through this.

"I will go only if we can come back this afternoon."

"Of course." InuYasha let himself be led outside by Miroku.

`Kagome if you die I'll bring you back from the dead and kill you myself.' InuYasha thought to himself as he glanced one more time at Kagome.

Hojo looked at the family leaving the building. They'd never know it was him that had done this to Kagome. He laughed an evil laugh that sent chills down the spines of any who heard it.

The group came back to the hospital at one o'clock on Boxing Day. They found that Kagome was still in a coma and nothing had changed. "Kagome," the whole group murmured. "Please come back to us."

InuYasha looked down at the girl he loved. "Kagome, I love you." The group watched as InuYasha sat down beside Kagome. "I'll watch her today."

Mrs. Higurashi looked at InuYasha. "Ok." They left InuYasha and Kagome to themselves. InuYasha leaned down to Kagome and placed a kiss on her cold lips.

"Oh Kagome don't leave me please." InuYasha laid his head on Kagome's belly and started crying into her cheap hospital gown.

The group did watch for the next three days but after that they realized that she might not wake up. The doctor started talking to Mrs. Higurashi about taking her off of life support.

"We will take her off of life support if she hasn't woken up in 7 months." Mrs. Higurashi told the group. "But we should stop doing the watch. Its not helping."

InuYasha looked at the ground and than back up at Kagome's mom. "Ok."

The group gave up watch and the days passed. School started again and the group went off to school. Everyone missed Kagome and a fundraiser was set up so that Kagome would have the money to stay in the hospital. Even the people who hated her like Kikyou and her group, helped with the fundraiser. Kouga who secretly had feelings for Kagome but would die, literally, if he said it helped. All in all the school raised about a thousand dollars for Kagome's hospital fees. But the days passed and the weeks passed. Everyone was starting to give up hope that Kagome would ever wake up.

Kagome looked around her. All around were people crying and sobbing in a dark, yet very lit room. "Where am I?" Kagome asked one of the people who was just standing and watching.

"You're in the waiting room for heaven."

"But I don't want to die!"

"Take it up with the people from God."

"Wha-? The people from God?"

"That's what I said isn't it?"

"Yes…" Kagome looked around again. The room was filthy and the people in it were even filthier. "Why is everyone so dirty?"

"I told you this is the waiting room for heaven. Did you think it would be sparkling clean or something?" asked the person standing beside Kagome.

"No, well Yes." The person looked at Kagome.

"My name used to be Sabina. What's yours?"

"Kagome."

"Well Kagome, you're pretty young still eh?"

"Yes. I'm only seventeen."

"Whoa. You are young. I was only forty-five when I died." The woman looked at Kagome. "How are you dying? What from?"

"My ex-boyfriend decided to kidnap me."

"And…."

"Than he raped me and beat me." Kagome took a deep breath. "Now I'm dying at a hospital in critical care with people who love me waiting to see if I'll wake up from my coma."

"Harsh."

"It is."

"Well, I'll put a good word in for you." Sabina said as she floated up to her meeting with `God's People'

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Kagome felt like three hours had gone by when `God's people' decided to see her. Kagome felt herself floating up.

"Kagome Higurashi."

"Hai?"

"You are now in the presence of God's People. We will begin your session."

"But sir I just want to go back to Earth."

"Ah, so this is the young lady Sabina was talking about."

"…." The people around her conversed. Finally someone spoke up.

"We'll have to talk to God about this. Only he can send you back to Earth."

"Ok." Kagome waited for what felt like ever, until she heard nervous whispers. This had never happened and everybody was nervous about calling God.

"<I> So Kagome.</I>" Thundered a deep voice from somewhere around her.

"Hai?"

"<I>You want to go back to Earth. Why?</I>"

"Because sir, I wish to be with my Family and friends. They miss me so much."

"<I> Do you miss them?</I>"

"Yes, very much sir."

"<I> Well who am I to stop you?</I>"

"Does this mean that I can go back?"

"<I>Yes</I>"

"Thank you sir! I'll never forget this!" Kagome got ready to go away. "Sir, you should clean up you're waiting room its filthy." Everyone in the room gasped.

"<I>I'll remember that Kagome.</I>" Said God chuckling.

"Bye. Thank you again."

"<I> It's no problem Kagome. Have fun and live long.</I>"

"Thank you sir."

A nurse passing by Kagome's room saw her hand twitch. Thinking nothing of it she kept on walking.

Kagome sat up in bed and looked around. She was in a hospital bed and light was shining throught the window. "I'm back!"

The nurse who had passed by Kagome's room heard the voice and walked in. Seeing Kagome up, she was shocked. "You're awake!"

"Hai."

"DOCTOR!" The doctor rushed into the room.

"Yes…" He stopped seeing Kagome up. "IT'S A MMIRACLE! CALL HER MOTHER!"

Kagome grinned. "Its about time."

Did any of you think I'd kill Kagome off? Well you're wrong. She's alive and kicking. Laughs muahahahahaha
