A girl about the age of seventeen with long black hair and stormy grey eyes, sat in the back of the school bus. Everyone seemed to stare at her, even though they kept their distance, with the exception of a few boys. All she wanted to do was stay at her old school but her mother didn't want to hear any of it. Some guys tried to get her to speak or just to get her name but one look into her grey eyes sent them packing. They wanted to get to know her but she kept up a barrier, distancing herself from everyone.

It wasn't like she personally hated them, but she didn't want to be here on the bus in the first place. Her mother wanted to move in with her father-in-law, so that she could take care of him. The girl could hear the exact words her mother told her this morning, "Kagome, it'll be fine, you'll make new friends. Don't make a fuss about it." Her mother just smiled and went back to unpacking.

Kagome's mother didn't want to send her daughter to a regular high school; no she sent Kagome to one of the most prestigious schools in Tokyo. Sure Kagome was no idiot but all she wanted to be was a 'normal teenager.' Kagome didn't like being the center of attention or the freak; even worse the girl who was better than everyone else. 'A true outsider,' Kagome thought as she tore her gaze away from the boy's and looked out the window.

"How can you say that, when I caught you!" a young man with midnight colored hair yelled the young woman with cold grey eyes. He just couldn't take it anymore, putting up with the same girl for two years and her cheating, wore him to the bone. To add to the misery, this was the night of no moon. The night, half of his being went dormant and made him a human for a few hours. Also his emotions were magnified times a million, to the point that he wasn't in control anymore.

His violet eyes searched the dead grey eyes that held no emotion. He though he loved her; loved that's what happened. He loved her once but not anymore. He took one more glance at the girl he once loved. Her dead emotionless eyes shimmered for a split second as she say him walk out of her life and into the rain.

He wandered aimlessly in the pouring rain. He suddenly found himself in the park from his childhood, finally a destination within his silent depression. Taking his time, the young man found out what his consciousness was searching for but something was different about it. In the obscure lighting he saw someone sitting at the base of the ancient tree. As he cautiously drew closer, he saw that it was a young woman. As he cautiously approached, she looked up and a smile spread across her features.

Stormy grey eyes clashed with his sorrow filled amethyst. "You know you kept me waiting for awhile, Inuyasha." The girl looked up at the dreary sky, a few stars started to peek out of the cloud cover. "Why are you here alone?"

"What do you mean?" His voice sounded like a dead drone in a long forgotten well.

"Follow me, I need to show you something," she grabbed his wrist and pulled him closer to the other side of the ancient tree.

He followed her without any hesitation, actually wondering where she was taking him. She let go of his wrist and walked up to the two initials carved in the trunk. "They're initials, big deal," Inuyasha looked away.

"They're not just initials, they're…" the girl looked over at Inuyasha with worry and shock shone in her eyes. "Why are you bleeding?" She asked as she slowly walked towards him.

"What?" Inuyasha looked at his wrist with wide eyes. Crimson blood silently trickled down his wrist onto the damp grass. 'How did this happen?'

"Come here," she reached into her coat pocket and wrapped her handkerchief around his wound. "We need to get you to a friend of mine. She'll know what to do."

They ran through dark alleys and in front of cars in the streets. They finally came to a stop outside of a small complex of apartments. Walking up two stories, they came to a stop at the very last door and this floor. The door slowly opened as if they already knocked. A little old woman with a kind smile looked at them.

"I've been expecting ye, come in," she opened the door further, helping the girl lead Inuyasha inside.

"Kaede, we need your help. Can you bandage his wound?" The girl looked over to find Inuyasha slumped against the back of the small couch.

"Help me child, I think he lost quite a bit of blood." They got Inuyasha to sit on the couch. Kaede slowly took the handkerchief soaked in blood from the wound. "Come look, do ye know of this mark?"

The girl studied the mark and rolled up her sleeve to show Kaede her wrist. The old lady muttered a fast and prayer and left. The girl gently sat down next to Inuyasha and put his head on her lap. She had a towel and was gently dabbing his forehead. Silver and amethyst clashed as he opened his eyes.

"Where am I?" He muttered exhaustion deep within his voice.

"Sh, go to sleep, just rest," a voice told Inuyasha.

In a few seconds he succumbed to a deep sleep until his alarm went off.
