InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ She ❯ Chapter 6

(A.N. I was just reading over my last chapter and I guess I forgot to put in the part that has to do with Kagome's eyes. Oh well, I'll probably put it in this one. I don't own Inuyasha)

She

"Hey did you guys hear? Someone started a fire in the woods just before Kagome and Mitzita started fighting." Sango held up a pink tank top Miroku nodded. "Really Suki? Was anyone hurt?" Suki looked at herself in the mirror "I don't know, they had the entire area sealed off, but I saw vice principal Naraku talking to the firefighters when I came out of my last class. He said something about not moving `them' until the students left I guess that means there was somebody in there" Kagome shook her head "How sad, being burned alive is a terrible way to die" She glanced at Sesshomaru, he seemed to be completely uninterested. He flicked a piece of fuzz from the sleeve of the black jacket he wore over his white uniform. His cell phone rang.

"Hello? What is it father?" He listened patiently, then his eyes widened. "I'll be there as soon as possible" He glanced at the others. He really didn't need a hundred questions right now, or for them to start bombarding him with concerned looks. "Inuyasha's been hurt, he's not dead but they don't know what's wrong with him. I have to go." He turned to leave "Wait!" he paused and raised a brow at her audacity. She blushed, "Sorry! …Um… It's just…Please allow me to come with you!" He turned away from her "No" She grabbed onto the sleeve of his jacket "I'll just follow you where ever you're going" He laughed, it was low and sexy, but it was also devoid of any humor. He flicked his wrist and her hand slipped off her sleeve.

"As if you could ever keep up with me, you forget that I am a demon and you are not. There is no possible way you could follow me." He said arrogantly. "But I can!" Kouga grinned at Kagome she smiled back. "Sesshomaru, Inuyasha is my friend please, I have to see if there's anything I can do to help him" Sesshomaru gave her an annoyed look. "I seriously doubt you can, I but I will allow you to come if the rest of you remain" He looked pointedly at the rest of the Pack. The others tried to protest, but Kagome nodded her head "All right" She turned to her friends. "I promise I'll fill everyone in tomorrow." She followed Sesshomaru out of the store. He took out his keys and started his car as she strapped herself into the passenger seat. "Sesshomaru?" She blinked "Sesshomaru!" He was ignoring her again. She tamped down on her temper.

"It's not like there's anything between us you know, he's just a friend" She fidgeted with her seat belt. "It's just that I don't want anything to happen to him" Sesshomaru kept his eyes on the road "There's nothing between us either. I am merely doing as my father requested." He glanced at her. She was giving him another wide-eyed look. He couldn't help but think of the pair of sapphire earrings his mother had always worn. His hands tightened on the steering wheel. No, he would not think of her now. He pulled into the hospital parking lot and parked. They got out and headed for the front desk. The receptionist looked up "Yes?" "We'd like to know which room Inuyasha has been placed in. I believe my father told you I would be arriving?"

The receptionist nodded, drool was dripping down her chin. She wiped her face "Room 625" Sesshomaru gave in to the temptation and rolled his eyes. "Come girl" Kagome sighed. What was she a servant? And that receptionist, was it really necessary for her to drool? They got on the elevator and took it to the sixth floor.

Kagome watched Sesshomaru from the corner of her eye. Did he really care nothing for Inuyasha? Kagome knew about dealing with annoying younger brothers, but she supposed it had been different for Inuyasha and Sesshomaru. They were as different as night and day. The elevator doors opened and they stepped out. "Sesshomaru!" a woman with long black hair, and chocolate colored eyes gasped. He ignored the surprised look she wore. "Where is my father?" he asked curtly. She glanced at a door on her right "With your brother. I'll tell him you're here." She turned and entered the room. Kagome took a breath "Was that…" "My step mother" He cut her off. The door opened and a man stepped out. Kagome gasped, he look tired, and his eyes were slightly red, but this man was practically Sesshomaru's double with the exception of the suit and tie that he wore. Father and son looked at each other in silence. "I'm glad that you came Sesshomaru." Sesshomaru nodded and his father's eyes settled on Kagome "Kikyo?" Kagome shook her head "No, my name is Kagome, I'm Kikyo's cousin" Sesshomaru's father nodded and motioned for them to sit in the chairs that lined the hall.

"I'm sorry I was hoping that you were her, they took her body to the morgue. We believe that she killed herself and wounded Inuyasha with one of her spirit arrows. It was lodged in his heart and he was pinned to a tree. He also received severe burns before the medics could reach them." "So Kikyo was the one who started the fire?" He nodded. "Yes, she must have used some kind of accelerant because there wasn't much left when they found her." Sesshomaru shifted in his chair "You said Inuyasha did not die from the arrow wound. What's wrong with him? He should have already started to heal himself" Kagome nodded "He is half demon" she muttered. "You're right. The problem is, we can't remove the arrow." Kagome looked up "Why not?" "There's a seal on it we had to cut him away from the tree, but no one can touch the arrow." Kagome swallowed "Do you mind if I try? I may be able to break her seal" Sesshomaru's father shook his head "No, please try whatever you can"

She stood and headed for the door. She opened it and entered the room. Inuyasha lay on his side, the arrow protruded from his back. She walked to the bed. She'd received the same training as Kikyo had. She could do this. She placed her hands on the arrow… and it disintegrated. She blinked. "That's it?" Kagome turned to find Sesshomaru in the door. She shrugged "I guess" he watched her for a moment "Come, I'll drive you home" She followed him out of the room. His father stood. She smiled "He'll be fine"
