Kagome couldn't believe this was happening to her again. Kagome thought for sure that when she came back from the Feudal Era, her adventures would be over, that she wouldn't be in life or death situations anymore. But no, here she was on the run again but this time from the dead. And there was no Inuyasha or Sesshomaru to help her.

Kagome ducked down an alley in the small town of King's County, Georgia. What was she doing there? Nothing in particular. Kagome had decided to explore the rest of the country during her summer vacation after she graduated from medical school, and this was as far as she got when the world fell apart. She had been holding up in a house for a while, but her supplies were running low, and Kagome needed to leave to refresh her supplies.

Kagome now had six or seven of those things chasing after her. She had noticed that if they were freshly turned, they moved a lot faster. Now that Kagome was in the alley, she had enough time to summon her bow and arrows. Holding out her hand, her bow appeared along with her quiver of arrowed. Kagome quickly knocked a bow, charged with her spiritual powers, and fired the minute the creatures came around the corner. And just like the demons from the past, these creatures turned to ash. Kagome's heart clenched as she watches the creatures destroyed. She knew she shouldn't feel bad, but those things were humans once, and it went against her training as a priestess and a doctor not to help them, even though Kagome knew there was nothing she could do for those things but send them to the afterlife. Kagome quickly said a prayer and moved on.

Now that Kagome was in the clear, she had enough time to get her bearings. Kagome looked around and noticed that she had gotten chased close to the King's County Hospital. Nodding to herself, Kagome decided to take a look inside and see if there were any supplies still inside. Slowly, Kagome crept her way inside the hospital and flared her aura to see if the building had any of those creatures inside. She had noticed that they gave off an aura that her spiritual powers could pick up, and for the most part, she could avoid them. But this time, Kagome hadn't been paying attention.

After flaring her aura, Kagome noticed that there was a large concentration of them on the second floor, but it seemed that they were trapped, so she wasn't worried. Kagome suddenly gasped when she felt the aura of a living person on that same floor. The life force was faint, but the spirit was very strong. Kagome knew that she could not leave this person alone and helpless so, she carefully made her way to the second floor.

When Kagome arrived on the second floor, she saw the devastation that the military had done and all the dead bodies that had been left behind. Seeing the bodies didn't faze her since living in the Feudal Era Kagome had seen much worse. Slowly, Kagome crept towards the hospital room that the person was in. She noticed that someone had been smart enough to block the door, quietly, Kagome moved the gurney that was in the way and walked into the room.

She found on the lying on the bed a man that was still hooked up to an IV that had long since run out and a heart monitor. He had a bandage on his torso that looked like it hadn't been changed in weeks. Kagome carefully removed the bandage and was relieved to see that there was no infection and that it was a bullet wound, No problem, Kagome had healed worse.

Kagome went back to the door and locked it, just in case then went back over to the man. She picked up his chart and found out his name was Rick Grimes, a sheriff's deputy, injured in the line of duty. Kagome nodded then walked to the side of the bed, putting both hands over the wound; she concentrated all of her healing abilities on the injury. Her hands began to glow pink, and slowly the wound started to heal. Kagome poured a little more power into Rick so that his muscles would not be so atrophied when he woke up, which should be any minute. Kagome removed the IV and unhooked the heart monitor
