Chapter 1

Kagome's POV

'Why me?' I thought desperately

'Why?'

'What did I do to him… What have I done to anyone to deserve this?'

'When will this end?'

I picked myself up off the bloody bathroom floor, and carefully examined my wounds. I hissed when I touched a bruise on my stomach. I was beginning to get tired of fighting this… fighting them. I then reached for the first aid kit I cleverly hid behind the toilet. My face showed traces of tears, but no burses. Never my face. He made sure of that. I grabbed the cleansing wipe and started dabbing at the cuts on my arms and so on, bandaging up all of my physical wounds and applying creams to my bruises.

Twenty minutes later the kit was once again hidden back in its spot, and the bloody bathroom tile once again white. Twenty minutes later, Kouga, my stepbrother, and one of my constant tormenters came in. "You cleaned the floor nicely." said Kouga sarcastically. "Please leave Kouga," I said weakly from my position on the floor. "Please."

He let out a deep chuckle. "Afraid Ka-Go-Me?" He said with venom spilling off every syllable. Kouga lifted me off the cold tile, carried me into his room, and dropped me on the hard floor.

"Ouchhhhh!" I screamed out loudly. I had to will myself not to cry. I refused to cry in front of him. I mustered up just enough energy to give him a fiery glare & a "fuck you".

"Ya know… If I really wanted to, I could make you scream all night…" he smiled devilishly

I stayed silent. I wouldn't let this bastard provoke me.

"Come on Kagome. Get mad like last time. You look so sexy when you're mad. Plus your defiance only makes me want you more."

"Please Kouga" I said tears threatening to spill over on to my white porcelain cheeks. He sat on me and I screamed again.

"Please what Kagome?" He said smiling the same devilish smile at me

"Please leave me alone!" I screamed as he roughly grabbed my breast

"What was that?" He asked

"LEAVE ME ALONE!" I screamed as he grabbed it harder

He got off of me and told me to start dinner before Naraku came home.

He walked out and left me alone in the dark. And that was exactly how I felt… alone in the dark.

I used my now almost healed arms to hoist myself up, and my legs (which were still wobbly) to walk to the kitchen. I took out the necessary supplies to make Ramen. I remembered that it was InuYasha's favorite. My eyes almost instantly teared up. 'damn I miss him. This wouldn't be happening if he were still here. Damn' I thought. 'Why did I have to think about him now? How could I have let him leave?' I could still remember all the time we spent together. He made me so happy… He was all I had to cling to after my mom died… & now I have no one.

*Flash Back*

"Inuyasha?" I asked sweetly

"Yeah 'Gome?" he replied

"Um... Im really gonna miss you… I wish you didn't have to go."

"Me too. But it won't be forever, and I'll come back for you."

"You promise?"

I held my breath for the few seconds it took him to answer. "promise." He said while embracing me.

"Don't worry about a thing Kagome. I'll always be here."

The look in his eyes was so sincere… I believed him.

*end flashback*

'When Inuyasha was around, i never got hit, kicked, punched, slaped, or anything! I was never this unhappy…' I sank down to the floor, knees against my chest.

'Why did he have to leave me? Why couldn't he just stay!?'

I heard Kouga open the front door, and he Shouted out he was leaving.

I gave no kind of response.

As the Ramen boiled I ran upstairs, Oblivious to the red light blinking on the phone in the kitchen.
