DemonGirl-Setsuna: Hi there! Setsuna here!
I’ve noticed most of my reviewers are worried about InuYasha’s mother; Izayoi, well you’ll be getting your answer in this chapter!
I received a review from, ‘Iya-bloody assasin’, it says:
sry for the mix-up on the gr6 thing... anyway, congratz on the
suspense, although it is really frustrating sometimes. Here's a question: Are
the girls that like Inuyasha/Iya going to be tormenting Kagome?”
If they do, Kagome will have her ‘fiancé’ to cry to! Then he’ll set them straight!
No one asked how my prom was!
Ninka: (Back to normal) How was your prom?
Setsuna: It was fine. But the music they were playing wasn’t in good choice.
Youka: (Also back to normal) What type were they playing?
Setsuna: I rather not talk about it. Let’s just say, I’m not the only one who was upset. They didn’t play any ‘Evanescence’ or any original versions of ‘Linkin Park’ songs. Also when one of the girl’s was dancing, I saw a flash of cheek!
Ninka & Youka: Flash of cheek?
Setsuna: Her butt-cheek!
Ninka & Youka: Ewww! Gross!
Setsuna: My thoughts exactly!
Amber: Mine too!
Setsuna: Ah, my room-mate Amber, the candy-shop at the mall closed down, so no more chocolate-covered coffee beans for you!
Amber: Nnnnnnnoooooooo!
Setsuna: Here is Chapter 35!
Please Enjoy!

Ch. 35
Wounds
-------------------------------------------
“W& #8230;what happened?”, InuYasha asks.
“Son, your mother was in a horrible car-accident”, the officer replies.
The color drains from his face.
“Iya, what’s wrong?”, Kagome questions, coming up to stand beside InuYasha.
“You need to come to the hospital”, the officer says.
InuYasha says nothing in response, but Kagome does.
“What about the guests?”
“My partner will call their parents”, the officer answers, “Come along, son”, he gently grasps InuYasha’s arm and leads him to the police-cruiser.
“Wait! I’m coming with you!”, Kagome shouts.
“Only family members”, the officer states.
“She’s my fiancée…”, InuYasha simply says, momentarily coming out of his shock, then quickly falls back into it.
“Please let me come. He’s going to need all the support he can get”, she pleds.
The officer looks between the pleding teen and the emotionally-shocked teen beside him.
“Sure, come on”.
-----------------------------
At the Hospital…
InuYasha sat in a chair in the waiting-room, his body was trembling, his head was hung low, and his bangs hid his eyes.
“Are you alright?”, Kagome asks, putting her hand on his shoulder.
No reply comes from the depressed boy.
“Come on, answer me InuYasha”, she quietly pleds.
She sees a tear roll down his cheek, followed by another, she hears him choke back a sob and quickly hold his head in his hands.
“Mother…”, he sobs.
She was surprised by his reaction, only to realize that it was the emotions he kept bottled up since the first-time he lost her coming to the surface.
He’s afraid he is going to lose his mother again!’, she thinks.
“Don’t worry, the doctors are taking good care of your mother”, she reassures.
“Are you sure?”, he questions, looking up from his hands at her, his eyes had become red and puffy from his crying.
“Yes, I’m sure. It’s their job to”, she huffs.
“Thanks”, he says, resting his head on her shoulder.
“For what?”
“For comforting me”, he replies.
“InuYasha…”, she smiles.
“Iya Himeno?”, a doctor calls.
“Right here”, InuYasha answers, standing up.
“Son, your mother is going to make a full recovery”, the doctor informs.
“Thank goodness!”, he sighs.
“How did the accident happen?”, Kagome asks.
“It seems she was on her way home, when the other car hit a patch of black ice and crashed into her car”, the doctor states, “Luckily the side that was hit was the passenger-side. She only received some cuts and bruises, and a broken wrist”.
“When can she be released?”, InuYasha questions.
“In a couple of days, we want to keep an eye on her to make sure she has no internal-bleeding”.
InuYasha nods in response.
“Can we go in to see her?”, Kagome says.
“She’s resting right now, but I don’t see why not”, the doctor replies.
“Thank you, doctor”, InuYasha bows.
“She’s in room: 1297”, the doctor says.
--------------------------
In Room 1297…
Izayoi lays in the hospital-bed, an IV in her arm, a few gauze-bandages, and her left-wrist in a cast.
“Mom?”, InuYasha questions, sounding like a little kid.
“Sweetie, come here”, she says.
“How are you feeling?”, he asks, hugging her gently.
“I’m only a little sore”, she replies.
“I was so afraid I lost you”, he whispers.
“You have me to thank, that you didn’t lose her”, a voice says, from the doorway.
He turns to see Karin standing there with her head wrapped in bandages and her left arm in a cast and sling.
“Only because I took the blunt of the accident”, she retorts.
“She’s right, if it wasn’t for her I would have been back in the afterlife”, Izayoi adds.
“Thank you for protecting my mother”, he says to Karin.
“You’re welcome”, she returns.
“Oh no!”, Izayoi gasps.
“What’s wrong, mom?”, InuYasha asks.
“We forgot to offer your father our prayers”, she replies.
“Mom…”, he sighs, “I’m sure he’ll forgive us, because of your accident”.
“Well, your father was pretty forgiving”, she says, “So I think he will”, she smiles.
“I know he will”, he agrees.
“He forgives the both of you”, Karin states.
(A/N: Don’t question an angel who communicates with the afterlife!)
“You see mother, it’s alright”, he says.
“You’re right, sweetie”.
