Chapter 11: High maintenance

"Inuyasha! What are you doing Kagome!?" Inuyasha's eyes parted slightly. He groggedly looked at Shippo.

"What do ya mean?" He snapped. Kaeda walked in and gasped at the scene before her.

"It appears ye like eachother more than I origanally thought. Shippo come this is not for child's eyes." Inuyasha blinked wearily and shifted to his left causeing a low moan from below him. Inuyasha soon realized that Kagome was no longer on his lap. Sometime during the night they must have drifted further down the hospital bed and rolled over. He was on top of Kagome, who in turn had her gown ridden up way to high.

"Hey it's not what it looks like!" Inuyasha made a fist and accidently jabbed Kagome in the stomach.

"Eh-Inuyasha." Kagome grumbled and gritted her teeth.

"Sorry!" Inuyasha jumped off Kagome and helped her fix her gown.

"Kagome!" Shippo jumped into Kagome's arms.

"Shippo!" She shrieked with delight and held his small body close to hers. After the strong embrace he got off her lap and sat on Inuyasha's chair.

"We looked all threw the hospital for you!"

"Really!? How's Sango doing? Is Miroku alright?" At the sound of Miroku's name Inuyasha appeared more angry than usual.

"He deserved what he got!" Kagome looked at his eyes they flashed amber and then turned back to brown.

"Inuyasha?" She was striken with fear he could see it in her face.

"What!" his voice changed into a low growl. His eyes flashed again the smell of her fear made him angry and excited at the same time.

"Whoa! Inuyasha what with your voice?" Kaeda stood in front of the confused Shippo and backed him against the wall. Inuyasha growled angrily he approached the two of them with slightly sharper nails and teeth. His eyes flashed wildly.

"Don't get angry!" Kagome sobbed Inuyasha's eyes stopped flashing he went to Kagome and hugged her deeply against his body.

"Stop crying," He bayed her as he stroked a hand threw her ebony locks,"Please." 'He was angry. Angry because Miroku touched me. He was angry for me.' Kagomes thought entranced her it was like a circus was dancing in her head parades and fireworks popping and clanging. He cared that was the only thing that mattered to Kagome. Her eyes were no longer dampened.

"I will!" She sniffled as a large smile came upoun her face Inuyasha smiled back.

"Good." Inuyasha kissed her forehead.

"Ahem..." Dr.Sugi walked threw the open door. Everyone stared at him curiously."The doctor called and said he has almost arrived. Surgery's schedule is due as soon as he arrives."

"Already what about breakfast?" Inuyasha said angrily.

"Not with a surgery for the removal of a tumor. I'll come collect you when the doctor arrives." He disappeared into the hall. Kagome heard her stomach rumble. A thought just came to Inuyasha.

"Kagome when was the last time you had something to eat?"

"Hmm...Well not at Sesshomaru's and I know I didn't eat at Tokyo hospital. So I guess it was the morning after you came to dinner I might have eaten something...I think."

"Shit Kagome don't starve yourself! What do you mean might have! God that was over five or six days ago! Weren't you ever hungry!?" She thought real hard about the past week of all the feelings that came to her but hunger wasn't one of them.

"Come to think of it...no."

"What ya mean no!"

"Well what about you huh?"

"Feh!" He muttered."I don't need much food to survive." He nonchalantly turned around.

"Hey! Where are you going?" He turn his head back to half look at Kagome.

"To get you something to eat!" He yelled his voice rang in Kagome's ear but she chose to ignore it.

"But the doctor..."

"I don't give a fuck about the doctor! Your not having a tumor removed you know and I know it! But the fricken doctor doesn't know it cause he's a fricken moron!" Kagomes stomach growled louder much to her embarassment she clutched her stomach as it pained from hunger."There you go you need food so there! That's final!" She nodded not wanting to drive the fight out further because she did want some food in her gut. After Inuyasha left Kagome noticed that Shippo and Kaeda hadn't said anything nor did they move from the corner.

"Well so how is Miroku and Sango?"

"Well..." Shippo beagain.

(with Miroku and Sango part 2 continuation from part 1)

Sango followed closely behind the paramedics. She stared wide-eyed at the giantousity of Miroku's swollen head. 'Inuyasha had caused this with so little effort. He is really strong. Since Naraku was undoubtably stronger than Inuyasha to inflict such wounds in there previous battle. Would I have been able to kill either of them?' the paramedics made many turns until they pulled into a room on the oppisite side of the hospital and beagain elevating Miroku's head with pillows. He looked pitiful and not a eye-candy type person sort-of was. Sango mentally slapped herself then dismissed the thought when she stared at his bulbus size bump pink and purple was rippling out of the hair. Also with a hint of blue which made Sango worry. Kaeda and Shippo sat on some visitor chairs behind the room divider a person over the giant shower curtain was screaming that he didn't want the poisonious medicine they were trying to feed him. Sango didn't blame the man for dislikeing the medicine. She sighed deeply she wished they had a private room. The man over the curtain eventually calmed down he had lost the battle of taking his medicine. Sango sighed again she was sorry that the man lost the battle and also glad he stopped screaming. She also sighed on how long this was taking for a doctor to arrive. The same nurse from before brought with her a Doctor. 'It took her long enough.'

"Hello my name is Dr.Sugi." He extended a hand expecting a hand shake from Sango. But she made no attempt to comply so he aborted his mission to get her to shake his hand. Dr.Sugi right away started examining Miroku's large head. He carefully felt the back of the head to see how much the top had enlargened."Oh my!" He looked at the chart he was holding.'Why exactly did you think hitting him hard on the head would calm him down?"

"He'll be okay won't he?" Dr.Sugi's mouth turned into a small frown.

"Well it appears to be a serious concussion. I'm afraid he won't last the night." Sano gasped tears collected in her eyes."Relax I was only joking." Sango was held back from unleashing her wrath by Kaeda and Shippo otherwise she would have given Dr.Sugi a serious concussion."He'll be fine with some rest. Can you bandage you friends head?" Sango and Kaeda nodded Shippo shook his head no."Good I have a patient in the emergency care who needs a x-ray." Sango sighed. 'Some service.' She held Miroku's head and bandaged him up. It was eight thirty well eight twenty eight to be exact.

(with Shippo and Kaeda)

Shippo spun dizzily on a doctor's chair on his stomach. Around and round. He beagain to get dizzy very suddenly it stopped spinning he was almost thrown off.

"Hey what did you do that for!" He scowled.

"It annoyed me." Kaeda stated plainly. Shippo sat up in the cahir and nervously fidgeted with his hands.

"Can we find Kagome now?"

"Alright." Kaeda raised from her chair."Sango-o?" Sango layed her head down on the side of Miroku's bed and had fallen asleep. Kaeda smiled slightly and went to leave Shippo jerked her hand.

"Aren't we going to wake her up?"

"Nay child let her sleep." Once they exited the room they wondered aimlessly around the hospial maze. Soon the two retraced their steps and got to the lobby. A different nurse than the one Inuyasha and Kagome had met sat in the desk cubical.

"Um pardon me?" Kaeda blinked rapidly something was caught in her only eye.

"Is this an emergency?" She shook her head at the nurse."Then please wait in the waiting room." Kaeda and Shippo went inside it was large with many furnished tables and comfortable chairs and couches. Two tvs were place inside with many magazines. There was a small countertop that had free hot water, cookies, and mixes to go along with the hot water. Kaeda made a hot chocolate out of the powdered mix and a cider for herself she stirred the hot water with two thin red straws. Shippo sat by the tv and found the remote he changed the tv to a cartoon channel and begain viewing the show. He munched savorisly on the one

cookie Kaeda allowed him to have. Kaeda wasn't very interested in the show but was amazed how tv had changed since her day."Okay I can speak with you now." The nurse said over halfway into the cartoon. Kaeda tossed the empty cup in the trash and walked up the the desk Shippo close behind.

"I'm looking for someone did a man named Inuyasha come threw here with a girl?" Shippo had his unfinished cocoa in hand and tried climbing onto the massive marble desk. But thankfully it was too slippery to climb on.

"Well cause the other nurse that works her left a hour ago she won't be back til seven am."

"Oh alright we'll come back." Shippo followed in dismay until he saw the gift shop. The walls were covered with soft animals and candles. Kaeda stepped in first."Um is this still open?" A old women with wrinklely skin sat behind the cash register.

"Were open twenty-four hours a day." Her appearance seemed like she stayed there 24/7. Shippo looked at her then at Kaeda his nose wrinkled in disgust. 'Do all old people look like them?' Shippo being who he was never saw anyone as old as Kaeda and the lady behind the counter. The gift shop wasn't as fun as Shippo thought it would be. When Shippo finished looking at the stuffed animals Kaeda was in deep conversation with 24/7 lady and didn't leave. Shippo was bored out of his mind. He beagain looking for a perfect gift for Kagome he saw one but didn't have the money to buy it. He slurped up the finishings of his cold cocoa. Kaeda stared at the clock.

"Oh my goodness did we talk for a hour?" The two old women chuckled away Shippo didn't think it was very funny he wanted to go now! He got Kaeda convinced it was time to go back to the room they were in. Kaeda and Shippo followed the directional signs that led to the wrong room. They quickly retreated from the coronary room and went down the opposite hallway til they reached where Sango and Miroku layed. Sango was still fast asleep on Miroku's bed. Kaeda kept dozing much to Shippo's dismay she fell asleep. Shippo sat wide awake listening to the storm. Lighting struck and thunder boomed the lights went out. Shippo lept onto Kaeda she bonded upright.

"What the devil!" Kaeda yelled. Sango felt a hand rest on her....

"HENTAI!" Sango hit Miroku on his bandaged head he twitched in pain.

"I couldn't see honest Sango!" He rubbedhis head,"That hurt! Where are we?" The lights turned back on. Sango sat in her chair arms crossed her brow fuming. Miroku stared at her curiously. 'Why was she laying in my bed anyways I can't be blamed for what I do. I thought she hated me maybe it's my suave approach. Or maybe not.' Shippo skipped over to Miroku and Sango.

"We should get some sleep." Kaeda said as she rolled a blanket around herself.

"Tomarrow we get to see Kagome and Inuyasha!"

"OH JOY!" Miroku said sarcastically. Shippo sadly thought he was serious.

"Yah! I can't wait to see Kagome!" He went onto a chair with arms and fell asleep almost instantly.

"How can he sleep so peacefully?" Sango remained silent."Come on don't get mad!" Sango stormed off into a chair furthest from Miroku. He sighed. 'My suspicion was wrong.' He held his right hand up to examine it. 'It has gotten larger I can feel it. If we don't kill Naraku soon then...No not a good thing to think about.' He fell asleep to fall into a troubled sleep. Shippo woke up first and shook Kaeda to consiousness.

"Shippo it's not even six thirty!"

"I want to get Kagome a present, get a cookie, and some more of the chocolate stuff!" He excitedly dragged the sleepy old women to the gift shop and had her buy Kagome a large dog stuffed animal. After they went to the waiting room Shippo got the cookie and cocoa he wanted. When Yura arrived Shippo ran straight to the counter. Kaeda was still tired when she asked Yura their whereabouts. It took some patrinizeing to get her to tell them where Inuyasha and kagome was for some reason. 'I'll have to ask them why.' Kaeda mentally made a note. As soon as they were in the hall towards Kagome's room Shippo ran as fast as he could to the room. Kaeda limped behind him.

........................................................................ ........................................................................... ........................................................................... ...........................

(back to the present with Inuyasha and Kagome.)

"Well thats what happend." Shippo finished telling the tale of what had happend to him.

"You had a very interesting day.' Kagome smiled sweetly at Shippo. Inuyasha traunced in with a bag of food and two drink on a tray from Wacdonalds. 'Do they even serve people at this hour?' Kagome pondered. "Inuyasha why didn't you go get food from the hospital?"

"Cause that food sucks!' Kagome rolled her eyes. 'Any food would have been good!' He pulled out two burgers and extra french fries. A large coke was slipped into her hand. Inuyasha tossed the empty bag into the garbage.

"Inuyasha what kind of breakfast is this?"

"Good breakfast." Kagome placed some fries to her lips. Shippo stared at the food and licked his chops.

"Didn't you get some food for the others?" He shrugged."Inuyasha!"

"They ain't my concern.'

"Shippo Kaeda do you want some fries?" Kaeda waved a hand in a 'No Thankyou way.' Shippo took some fries and sat gingerly on Kagome's lap. Inuyasha growled slightly. She broke apart some of her cheeseburger to split it with Shippo and frowned.

"What!?" Inuyasha slided down with his burger on a chair."Now whats wrong?"

"I don't like anything but the meat and the cheese."

"Picky Picky Picky!" Kagome handed Shippo the full cheeseburger he mowed happily on it."Augh! Now why did you have to do that!" Kagome crossed her arms in responce.

"I don't like the toppings."

"Fine I'll get you something else to eat!" He stormed off again in the quest for food. Kaeda rubbed her sore limbs.

"Are you alright Kaeda?" The old women stopped and smiled her old wrinkled face at Kagome

"Yes." A deep sigh utter from her lips."These bones aren't what they used to be is all." Kagome looked down and saw Shippo happily eating the french fries. All the fighting with Inuyasha got her mind off of everything that happend and everything that was going to happen soon. A shiver ran down her spine and made her hair stand on end.

"You okay Kagome?" Shippo asked with a french fry protruding out of his mouth.

"Yes I'm fine." She giggled.

"Ye looked quite pale a moment ago." Kaeda said with a questioning tone.

"I'm fine already." 'Am I really okay' Her inner thoughts were hidden behind her fake smile. Deep down she was terrified.

(with Sango)

Dark cluttered trees surrounded the area it was too dark to see much of anything. It was so wierd that everything was strangely it was so familiar.

"Hello," she panted,"Is anyone there?" A rustle was flung into the trees. Something was running ahead of her."Wait!" Sango threw back the branches that blocked her path."Come back!" Everything disappeared into total darkness. Sango felt for the trees but they had gone to. She walked blindly around feeling for something that wasn't ther."Hello?" Sango was close to crying."Please somebody help!" She saw a bush appear because it let in light threw the branches. She walked around it and nothing was there. 'Where is the light coming from?' Sango went back around and looked threw a small clearing in the bush. She piered into it. Sango forced her eyes open and closed rapidly. 'My eyes must be playing tricks on me!' Kohaku lay back from the large dark figure hovering over him.

"Ahh!" Her little brother shrieked and pulled his hands to cover his face. The monster licked it's dog like chops of sharp white venom teeth it beamed with a smile on it's smug lips. The creature streatched its head to look right at Sango threw the bush. She was too petrified to move her body couldn't even tremble. It's smile grew and it's neck snapped as it dug his teeth into Kohaku's neck and ripped and tore at the flesh. Blood was spraying out rapidly the creature tore at Kohaku's neck like and starving beast.

"No!" Sango cried."I won't let you take him again!" She ran out of the bushes and ripped at its thick matteded fur. Tearing out handfuls of hair."NO!" the creature swung a arm and flung Sango back against a large rock. It appeared out of nowhere just like the bush. Sango's bone crushed part of her rib shattered her head had banged hard against the rock."Ah....." Blood slid down from her lip her hair felt unpleasently wet. A slimy red goo slid down her face and slid past the crown of bead she wore on her forehead. Her vision blurred."No!" She called out.

"Sister..." Kohaku reached for his sister then felt tired as he fell faint from the loss of blood. Sango dragged her body limply across the hard dirt ground.

"YOU!" Her face fell into the dirt she shakedly lifted her neck up to stare at it."You are the reason I suffer so..." The demons red eyes focused on her blood dangleing down from his lips."NARAKU I WILL KILL YOU!" She sniffled back the blood that slided down her nose. Naraku raised his shrp claws into the air they seemed to legthen in size. He slammd his claws into Kohaku's chest."NOOOOO!" She shrieked and opened her eyes wide awake she was in the hospital. Miroku was watching her from his hospital bed. She looked around but she didn't see Shippo or Kaeda she was left alone in the room with Miroku. Even the guy across the shower curtain was no longer there. "Where is everyone else?" Miroku heaved heavily.

"I assume they are with Kagome and Inuyasha. Shippo seemed so enthused yesturday." Sango stared at her hands they wern't covered in blood nor were clumps of hair stuck to them."Sango is something wrong?"

"Nothings wrong lets just go and find them." Kilala popped her head out of the from of sango's pink and green dress."Kilala your supposed to stay hidden the hospial will kick us out if you don't." Kilala made a small meep of annoyance she was sweltering on Sango's chest. 'Why can Kilala be there.' Miroku sighed.'And I can not?'

(With Kagome and Inuyasha)

Shippo finished the last fry and suddenly remembered he had a gift for Kagome.

"Kaeda where's Kagome's present?" Kaeda look dumbfonded.

"I thought ye had it."

"OH NO!" Shippo jumped off the bed and dug threw blanketsl, looked under the bed, and went into places it definately wouldn't be like the ceiling fan.

"Shippo you probably just left it at the gift shop." Kagome suggested.

"Aye we will get it back later. Let's try to spend some time with Kagome for the time being." Inuyasha arrived with two stirophone soup bowls of ramen is his hand. He passed one to Kagome she shoved hungrily the soup into her mouth with the chopsticks. Inuyasha ate if not sloppier than Kagome. Dr.Sugi entered the room to see Kagome and Inuyasha's face covered in noodles.

"What is this! I thought I said not to eat anything!" He barked but Inuyasha's bark was stronger.

"Shut the fuck up and let her finish!" He shovel the finishings of ramen into his mouth.

"Uh...Sorry?" Kagome mumbled.

"Oh...well come the doctors here." Dr.Sugi mumbled sheepishly. Kagome set her cup down. She stood and hugged Shippo and Kaeda before grabbing Inuyasha's hand. He squeezed it tightly to comfort her. Shippo and Kaeda waved goodbye and headed for the 24/7 lady's gift shop. Dr.Sugi lead Kagome and Inuyasha down in front of a room."Inside is the specialist from tokyo go and inside and they will explain the proseger." Dr.Sugi pulled open he door. There stood before Kagome was the doctor that...

(Flashback at Tokyo Hospital)

"Mother!" Hojo screamed. She held her hand over her heart. Doctors rushed in to see Hojo fire down at the ground and a patient hit the attack with his foot and leap out the window. Hojo turned around to see his mothers and doctors in the doorway him holding the gun his mother collapsed.

"Mother!"Hojo screamed.

"Call security!" The doctor that spoke with hojo's mother earlier yelled.

Doctors quickly hoisted up Hojos mother on a strecher.

"Mother!"he screamed again.

"Calm down son just give me the gun." A police officier said treating Hojo just like a low life criminal.

"What?"

"Give us the gun we'll take care of you." said one as he slowly advanced to Hojo. Doctors followed suit.

"Stay back!" Hojo pointed the gun at them.

"Dont do anything drastic!" one said as one slipped around with a needle. Hojos adrenaline rushed as the doctor with the needle appeared out of nowhere Hojo's finger slipped the bullet flew into the doctors chest blood splattered his face boom the doctor was on the floor. That only made doctors swarm over him more saying crappy lines like we wont hurt you and just give us the gun. No matter how much they said Hojo couldn't believe them. So...

"I mean it stay back or I'll shoot."Hojo pulled the trigger the doctors flinched nothing came out."Shit!"

"Restrain him!" They had him on the ground and in a jacket before he could blink. They hurt the bruises Inuyasha gave him as well as the broken bones. He started to scream so they sadated him."Hes a danger to himself and others. Lock him up. And get security down on the escaped patients who no doubt needed medical attention."

"What about the boys mother?"

"This is a hospital we must treat everyone." the doctor sighed wearing a name plate that said,'Doctor Matsumoto.'

........................................................................ ........................................................................... ........................................................................... ...........................

Kagome and Inuyasha walked in Dr.Sugi closed the door when he left making Kagome feel enclosed. A doctor stood up and approached them.

"Hello I am Dr.Matsumoto and I am the specialist from Tokyo." He shook Kagome's and Inuyasha's hand. Dr.Matsumoto knew exactally who they were but at the moment but where completely oblivious to who stood before them."Please have a seat we have much to talk about." Both took a seat waiting to hear the news about how the "Tumor" was to be removed.
