Chapter 1: The beginning

Kagome Hiragurshi was born November 28th 1990 in Tokyo, Japan she is the youngest of three in her family. Kagome has one older brother Souta who is 21 and an older sister Kikyo who is 18; Kagome is 17 years old and is two years younger than her sister and five years younger than her brother. Kagome's father is Ryozo Hiragurshi and he works at a soda company working in their computers department, her mother is Mariko Hiragurshi who is just a stay home mom. She also has a cat named Byo who has got to be one of the laziest cats Kagome has ever seen.

Kagome and her siblings all had black hair just like their parents, but each of their hair colors was a different type of black; Souta had a sort pitch black hair, Kikyo had a dull black, but Kagome's was the most interesting hers was black, but it had a tint of blue in it. Both Souta and Kikyo had brown eyes, Souta had bright chocolate brown eyes like their father and Kikyo had dull almost black eyes; Kagome's eyes were a striking blue that when she got mad seemed to turn an almost black with red. Both Kagome and Kikyo had bodies that most girls would kill to have and boys love to stare at.

Kagome lived in Tokyo all her life and was quite happy; she had her best friends Naomi and her brother Ryoichi living down the street from her, a great school, lots of friends, and great teachers. One night when her father came home he told his family that he had something important to discuss with them; as it turns out on one of his business trips her father's boss Takai offered him a job in Kagoshima. He asked them if he should accept the job or not, but he warned them that if he accepted the job that it would pay better. But they would have to move to a whole other part of Japan. Everyone thought it was a good idea, well that is everyone except Kagome although it didn't matter what she wanted Dai had signed the contract agreeing that he would go work as the CKO at the hospital in Kagoshima; they moved when she only 6 ½ , Kikyo was about 8, and Souta was 11.

So they packed their things, said good-bye to friends and family (Mariko's family lived in Tokyo while Dai's family lives in Osaka) and moved to Kagoshima, they moved during the middle of December around Christmas time. The trip to their new home was rather difficult; first they had to pack all their things into this tiny U-haul, pull it all the way to the other side of Japan, then do the most dreaded thing in moving… unpack. They had to mail their Christmas presents to the new house because there was no room to put them, and as it turns out the mail service LOST their presents and it took them forever to finally get them back.

When they arrived in Kagoshima they found out that their house was not finished yet (they had to build it) so they had to rent a little house in a small little section of Kagoshima and boy was it tiny. It was a three room house, well four room if you count the living room/kitchen, there was the master bedroom, the kids bedroom; which consisted of a bunk bed with a full mattress on the bottom, a twin on top, and a separate twin bed, then there was the small bathroom; oh and I forget to mention the creepy basement too, plus the house had no air conditioning and it got out in the tiny house.

Souta went to KICS the middle school while Kikyo and Kagome went to Kagoshima elementary; this is where Kagome made her first friend Mayu Dai. Dai came up to Kagome during school and started talking to her, finally after chasing each other around during recess Kagome got to over to Dai's house because she only lived up the street. After months of building and putting in furniture the house was ready to live in, so once again Kagome and her family had to move away from friends into their new house; fortunately Dai's house was only 30 minutes away from Kagome. When the Hirgurshis were finally settled into their new home Souta was 12, Kikyo was 9, and Kagome was 7. Kagome had gotten to have her 7th birthday party at the little house with all the new friends that she met at Kagoshima elementary. When they moved into the new house, which was bigger and each kid got their won room, the family met their neighbors the Eishosuzus; they had three kids just like Kagome's family only they had two boys and on girl. The eldest boy Taro who was 5, his sister Cho was 4, and the youngest son Zinan was three.

Skip to 3rd grade

Kagome is now 9 years old and in 3rd grade, this is where she met her best (guy) friend Inuyasha and her best friend Sango Taijiya although, Sango was a year younger Kagome while Inuyasha was only a few months.

Inuyasha had long black hair, and when I say long I mean long, his hair went all the way down to his waist and it had silver streaks in it; he usually kept it down, but sometimes he would pull it back into a low ponytail to keep it out of the way. He was really tall too at least 5"5' and he was built too, well for 3rd grader he was. He had a really cocky attitude and was rather brash at times, but Kagome liked him anyway.

Sango had beautiful brown hair that was long and silky and it shined even if there was no light on it; she had deep chocolate brown eyes that guys could just melt in… if anyone of them could get close enough, Sango was a fighter like Kagome. She was always there to protect Kagome to, but only if she needed it; she was tall, but not too tall, usually had her hair in a high ponytail.

"Hey, how come you're older than everyone else?" Sango asked Kagome one day

"Yeah, how come?" Inuyasha was curious too

"Well, before I moved to Kagoshima my mom held me back a year at my school in Tokyo because she said I wasn't ready for 2nd grade." Kagome explained to them

"Oh" they both said

So the trio stuck together all through elementary school; through thick and thin, through good and bad, especially the bad. (I'm going to skip 4th grade just because)

Skip to 5th grade

Now we join Kagome and her friends in fifth grade at Juuban elementary school and they were all in different teachers, but luckily Kagome was right next to Miroku's classroom; there was really only one thing that made the 5th grade so committed to memory for these youngsters and that was when Kagome unintentionally sent someone to the hospital.
