  Damn Dogs

By lady Ky

         Oh this just was another joke on her from those Kami’s above, they couldn’t leave things well enough alone; first the well then the jewel, then Kikyo and then Naraku. Now this, Kagome sure didn’t find it even a bit funny. Kagome was stuck in Keade’s huts with a half demon guard dog by her side too quote ‘make sure she get’s better and not die before the jewel was finished’ ‘damn dogs, I should have listened to mama she said this could happen’ Kagome thought with a sigh.

         Sesshomaru was rushing on his cloud he couldn’t believe this, he just now begun to care about someone else besides him self and his never end quest for power. He had to get this medicine to her in time, she couldn’t leave him now he wouldn’t allow it, still it bugged him to now end leaving her in the care of the old human miko and his half brother; but there was no other way neither were fast enough to get this before she… ‘no that thought will not pass through this Sesshomaru’s mind, do you hear me Kagome you will live or this Sesshomaru will bring you back just to kill you again’

         Kagome gave a groan and tried to move her head from under the very cold rag that lay on her forehead, it was driving her nuts it was so cold. ‘Damn over protective youkai’ and there was Keade telling Sesshomaru about this medicine that could save her life, if was enough to make her scream. Honestly she wasn’t dying, she wasn’t even sick well she was sneezing but there are other reasons to sneeze.

         Sango was worried she didn’t want her best friend to die; she wouldn’t be able to handle that. Miroku couldn’t only watch his lady love as she stressed herself out over their miko friend, he could understand how they felt, but he remembered something Kagome once told him that people sneeze not just was sick.

 “Inuyasha let me up” Kagome said trying to sit up her back was killing her.

“No way Kagome I’m not going to be the one that tells my asshole brother your dead”

“I’m not going to die Inu, just let me sit up the ground hurts you know”

“Kagome child ye must rest”

“Not you too Keade just let me sit up for a moment not trek all over Japan” Kagome said knowing that Inuyasha would be sat.

         He finally found it he medicine that his love needed, now all he’d have to do is bring it to her and nurse her back to health. Hopefully she would be find after this and would leave him for a long time. Sesshomaru raced off with his bright sphere trying to reach Kagome in time and praying that she didn’t leave to the next world without him there.

        Everyone was in Keade’s hut each wearing a very solemn look on their face; Kagome having finally won the right to sit up was having another sneezing fit. Inuyasha had decided that Keade’s way of checking on Kagome’s illness wasn’t good enough, so he thought to use his nose and sniff out the cold.

 “Mama please, don’t die” Shippo whined

“I’m *ah-choo* not *ah-choo* going *ah-choo* to *sniffle* die” Kagome said while holding a handkerchief over her mouth and nose.

         Kagome looked at her friends trying to give them a smile, but when they saw her they took a death breath and began to cry. Kagome’s nose was swollen and a bright red her eyes were puffy and full of tears, each of them had found her many times rubbing her eyes; Sango thought that her friend/sister was trying to take her eyes out. Sesshomaru landed just outside the old miko’s hut, he could smell his loves friends inside; hoping that he wasn’t too late Sesshomaru walked into the nut.

 “How is she?”

“She won’t stop sneezing, but that red stop has gotten smaller” Sango told him.

“Oh no Sesshomaru please tell them to let me go home real quick, the medicines there would learn want is wrong”

“You are my mate to be Kagome if you are ill then this Sesshomaru will care for you”

‘I’m going to die’ Kagome thought with a sigh as Sesshomaru sat behind her.

         Sesshomaru gave Keade the medicine he retrieved; she got to work making a tea for Kagome, Sesshomaru had wrapped his arms about Kagome and was trying to comfort her by rubbing her arms and making light purring type growls. As he rubbed her arms the red spots her friends were so worried about began to grow once more and itch her something fierce.

 “Keade the red spot is back do something please” Sango pleaded.

‘Shoot me come just shoot me now’ Kagome thought almost in tears which her friends miss took as tear of pain.

         While Keade let the tea cool everyone was talking about different ways that might save their little miko. Kagome who was wrapped up in her personal living Taiyoukai blanket had only a few thoughts that didn’t have to deal with going on a murderous rampage. First was how to get the Taiyoukai to leave her alone long enough to leave to the future second was to sit down and explain to each one of her friends other reasons why a person would sneeze. As Kagome thought about the different ways to make sure that lesson was into her friends head she was interrupted.

 “Maybe we should let Kagome-same do a cleansing ritual” Miroku offered for once not being a pervert.

“No way, her going into that water like this would only make it worse” Inuyasha nearly yelled

“Perhaps we should let Kagome go home?” Sango said uncertain

“My mate will stay with me” Sesshomaru said reaching for the now cool tea.

         Kagome groaned this was getting too much and now Sesshomaru wanted her to drink something that smelled like he dug it out from between an oni’s toes. This was too much she couldn’t deal with it anymore; she was putting her foot down.

 “That’s it I’m going home and if anyone stops me you’ll get zapped!” Kagome said standing.

“Kagome your ill please rest” Sango said worried.

“If you would let me go home I can come right back and be fine, I’m not ill or dying”

“But that red spot and all that sneezing isn’t normal” Miroku said

“Oh it’s normal all right Miroku what you are seeing is what happens when I run out of my allergy medicine”

           Her friends looked confused but Kagome didn't care, she just wanted some calamine lotion and some Benadryl. Kagome moved to leave but a stripped hand stopped her, Kagome shivered as the hand made her itch even more. being out of your medication for a dog allergy was the worst when you travel with some very large dogs.
