Meeting Rin

"Will Janet be alright?" asked Mrs. Higurashi, who was crying uncontrollably. "I can't
bare to lose my daughter like I lost my husband."
"Don't worry, she will be fine as long as she doesn't get any strong, unhappy emotions."
replied the doctor.
"William, don't lie to me. I have known you for years, tell me the truth."
"Janet will die in eight months, but if she gets unhappy emotions, it will speed up her
death." replied William gravely as he tried to comfort Mrs. Higurashi.

"I can't believe it!" cried Kagome to herself as tears welled up in her eyes for the tenth
time this hour. "Janet, you lied, you lied! You promised you'll always be there for me and now
your leaving me."
"Are you okay?" asked a weak voice. Kagome turned around to see a young girl around
the age of thirteen sitting on a wheelchair.
"I'm fine." lied Kagome as she wiped away her tears.
"I know you!" cried the girl, who seemed to have recovered some energy. "Aren't you
Sesshoumaru's girlfriend? I love his music, and I have always wanted to meet him."
"Oh." said Kagome silently.
"My name is Rin, what's yours?"
"Kagome."
"Your really pretty, I bet Sesshoumaru loves you very much." replied Rin with a sweet
smile.
"There you are!" cried a nurse as she ran towards Rin. "It is time for your nap." The nurse
pushed Rin's wheelchair toward her room. Rin turned around and gave Kagome another smile
and closed her eyes.
"Poor girl." said a voice silently, which Kagome immediately recognized.
"Doctor Stephen, what is wrong with Rin?"
"She, like your sister will die. But she can be saved if we can find a heart for her, but so
far, there hasn't been a donation."
"How long does she have to live?"
"A few months."
"Why?"
"She has lost the will to live, and that is why I am here."
"Huh?"
"Her wish is to meet Sesshoumaru, so if you can bring him here and visit R.."
"No! Find someone else to do it."
"Kagome, I don't know what happened, but from what I heard you and Sesshoumaru
were best friends when you were young."
"When we were young, not now."
"Please, do this for our little girl." interrupted a woman's voice with her husband.
"Who are you?" asked Kagome as tears spilled again.
"We are Rin's parent, and we know she will make it if she gets to meet Sesshoumaru."
"Then why don't you go find him?"
"We've tried, we wrote letters, which he didn't answer. Called him, but he didn't pick up
his phone. We even went to his house, but he wouldn't see any one." replied the father as he
supported his wife, who seemed about to collapse at any moment.
"I-I can't, please forgive me, I can't!" cried Kagome as she ran away.

"Sesshoumaru, open the door!" yelled Miroku as he banged on Sesshoumaru's door.
"Open up or I will tear it down!"
Silence replied Miroku. Miroku sighed and tried to reason with Sesshoumaru, "I don't
know what happened that night, but you can't go on like this. Tell me what's wrong, maybe I can
help."
Silence greeted Miroku once more, "Sesshoumaru! Open up! Now!" Miroku started
kicking the door, trying to knock it down.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Sesshoumaru sighed and looked down from his balcony and whispered to himself, "No
one understands what I am going through right now." Sesshoumaru took another sip of his drink
as he listened to Miroku's kicking and banging.
Sesshoumaru had heard Miroku's pleads, shouts, and reasoning, but chose to ignore it.
"Sesshoumaru, open up!"
Sesshoumaru took a look at the door, but said nothing as he returned to gazing down from
his balcony.

Kagome slowly walked down the halls with tear stains on her cheeks. "Look at that, I'm
out of tears." Kagome thought to herself sarcastically, "If I cry anymore, I am sure I will be
crying out blood."
Kagome stopped walking when she noticed she passed Rin's room and retraced her steps
back. Kagome quietly entered the room, noticing that Rin was asleep. Walking over to her desk,
Kagome picked up a stack of CDs, all of them by Sesshoumaru.
"Rin, you really admire him, don't you? I promise, I will bring Sesshoumaru to meet you
if it's the last thing I do. Since, my fate will end up being exactly like Janet's, why not do
something worthwhile." whispered Kagome to Rin, who was oblivious to her words as she was
in dreamland.

Kagome stepped out of the hospital and went toward Sesshoumaru's house. Closely
following behind was the orange-haired reporter, named Shippo.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Where's Kagome?" asked Inuyasha, worry written all over his face.
"I'm not sure, but Kagome never misses work unless something really big happened."
replied Sango.
"She'll be fine." bit out Kikyou coldly, who was having a jealous fit.
"Kikyou, what's wrong with you lately?" asked Sango.
"Nothing!"
Inuyasha looked from Sango to Kikyou then back.

Kagome walked into the front yard when she stopped to listen to the racket.
"Sesshoumaru! Open now or I will personally kill you!" yelled a male voice followed by loud
bangs and kicks. "Oww, look what you made me do!?"
"Shut up!" yelled a voice, which Kagome realized as Sesshoumaru's.
"I broke my arm trying to get you out of your room and you tell me to just SHUT UP?"
BANG, CRASH, CRACK, OWWWWW. Kagome sweet dropped and thought, "I don't
think I want to know what is happening, and I thought I was in a bad mood. Mine is nothing
compared to this."
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Miroku, I'm leaving!" yelled Sesshoumaru as he stormed downstairs, followed by Jaken
and Miroku with bruises, cuts, and bit of blood.
"Where are you going?" asked Miroku.
"None of your business, and when I return, I expect you to have fixed my door and
cleaned up the glass." with that said, Sesshoumaru walked out to his car.
Sesshoumaru immediately saw Kagome, but ignored her and her calls. "Sesshoumaru,
stop and listen!"
Sesshoumaru started his engine and was going to drive away when Kagome stood right in
front of the car. "Move!" ordered Sesshoumaru, "Or I am going to be really pissed!"
"If you would listen, I wouldn't be wasting your time."
"What is it!?" asked Sesshoumaru impatiently.
"There is a little girl at the hospital who is about to die, and have always wanted to meet
you." replied Kagome.
"So, what does that have to do with me?"
"If you go see her, I promise you will never see me again." stated Kagome as she willed
her tears not to fall.
"Fine, now move!" yelled Sesshoumaru as Kagome moved out of the way. Kagome
turned to see a reporter.
"Do you think he will show up?" asked Shippo.
"Aren't you that reporter who has been following for quite some time?"
"Yeah, sorry." replied Shippo.
"It's okay. Lets go, no use in standing here."
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Inuyasha knocked on Kagome's door again, but still no one answered. "Kagome, where
are you? What happened? Please be alright." pleaded Inuyasha as he drove home with a heavy
heart.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Kagome stood outside of the hospital with Shippo waiting for Sesshoumaru. It was
already midnight, and still no traces of Sesshoumaru. "Do you think he forgot?" asked Shippo as
he slipped off his jacket and handed it to Kagome, who was shivering.
"Lets wait a while longer." said Kagome. So they waited, when it was almost 3:00A.M.,
Kagome and Shippo gave up hope. When they were turning to leave, they heard the engine stop,
and there stood Sesshoumaru.
Sesshoumaru nodded his head. Kagome lead the way to Rin's room followed by
Sesshoumaru and Shippo. Kagome walked toward her mother and Doctor Stephen. "Kagome."
called William. "What..." he stopped himself when he noticed Sesshoumaru and a reporter.
William smiled and led the remaining way to Rin's room.
Sesshoumaru slowly entered Rin's room, as Rin was taking her medicine. Rin feeling
someone enter her room and turned around. Rin's mouth opened to say something, but found
herself at a loss for words.
"You must be Rin." said Sesshoumaru kindly as he sat next to Rin.
"Yes," replied Rin, giving Sesshoumaru a wide smile. "I never imagined I would finally
get to meet you."
Sesshoumaru gently hugged Rin, as Rin's eyes welled up with tears of happiness.
William motioned for the nurse to leave them alone. The nurse, understanding the motion, left
swiftly and quietly. Shippo took out his notepad and took down everything that was said from the
doorway and took many pictures of Sesshoumaru and Rin hugging.
Kagome smiled a soft smiled and left without anyone noticing. "I should keep my end of
the bargain." thought Kagome as she took off Shippo's coat.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"So you promise you'll get well?" asked Sesshoumaru.
"Hai, I will." promised Rin.
Sesshoumaru left after giving Rin a smile. Just as Sesshoumaru closed Rin's door,
everybody heard a loud scream and ran towards the sound.
Shippo and everyone else rushed into Janet's room to find the window open. Janet was
nowhere in sight. They looked out the window to find Kagome running toward the mall shouting,
"Janet! Where are you? Please, don't scare me! Janet! JANET!"
Quickly everyone went outside to find that Kagome, like Janet, was nowhere in sight.
"Kagome! Janet!" called Mrs. Higurashi.
William picked up a note attached to the tree that read. "Mom, don't worry about me. I'm
going to go look for Janet and I will be back before dinner."
Mrs. Higurashi felt a bit relived, but still worried. Sesshoumaru quietly left, needing time
alone. Shippo soon left after Sesshoumaru, hopping Kagome was okay.

***Two days later***

"Janet, don't you dare leave again!" yelled Kagome as Janet was about to climb out the
window again.
"I need to see Kouga." replied Janet.
"You ran away two days ago, and had all of us worried to death."
"But.." Janet was cut off as William ran into the room crying tears of happiness.
"Doctor William, what's..."
"Rin, someone has donated a heart!"
"Really?!"
"Yes, Shippo had written out the incident and put it in the newspaper. It made the
headlines! Soon, we have so many people donating hearts!"
"That's great!"
"Rin's parents are really happy, and wants you to tell Sesshoumaru how thankful they
are."
"I can't do that."
"Why not?"
"I promised he would never see me again if he would come."
"Oh."
"Kagome." stated Janet as she cried tears for her sister.
"A deal is a deal." stated Kagome. "But I will send a letter telling him the results."
