PLEASE REVIEW AND LEMME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK 3
Chapter 1: Meet the Higurashi Family
My name is Kagome Higurashi. I'm sixteen years old and a junior in high school. I live my families shrine with my ten siblings, our mother, our grandfather, and our obese cat, Buyo. Our lives aren't vary easy, as you can probably imagine. We support each other because we don't have enough parents. Our father left us after the twins were born and our mother was constantly at work. Grampa was always home, but he was working in the shrine house nonstop. The closest thing we had to an adult figure was my eldest brother, Daiki. But he was an immature twit, despite his age.
I ran down the steps of our shrine with all ten of my siblings. All of the college students wore blue school uniforms (The ones from Inuyasha the Final act), The high schoolers wore our green and black uniforms (The one that Kagome & Hojo Wear in Inuyasha) , all the middle schoolers wore blue uniforms (Like the ones from YU YU Hakusho!) , and all the elementary school kids wore Blue sailor uniforms (Like Ushio's from clannad!) . We ran all the way to a four way crosswalk where we all waved each other goodbye and went our separate ways for the day. I walked in a bunch with three out of my ten siblings; My older brother, Souten, and my younger siblings, Natsumi and Souta.
"Hey, Kags! Did you make lunch for us today or are we starving?" Souten asked playfully.
Souten was a couple inches taller than myself. He had tanned skin and a long black braid that cascaded down his back. (He looks like Hiten) He had deep brown eyes that made all the girls at our school swoon. He was playful and sometimes an asshole. But I loved my aniki regardless!
"Shove it, Souten! I did make lunch, but I think you can pass on the food today. You're lookin' kinda pudgy!" I exclaimed, poking my elder brother in the stomach.
"Shut it!" Souten huffed crossing his arms as Souta, Natsumi, and myself all giggled.
"Big brother!" Natsumi called to Souten, "Do you have our schedules?"
After fishing through his brown backpack, Souten whipped out four sheets of paper. Natsumi took hers and her face fell.
"This totally blows! I have no fun electives! What a shitty start to my sophomore year!" Natsumi pouted, shoving her paper into her bag.
"I actually like mine, this is pretty good for a freshman schedule!" Souta exclaimed, looking over his schedule with excitement.
Souten handed me mine I grimaced, "Trigonometry? Seriously?" I asked the gods why they cursed me and Souten laughed.
"And Junior year starts out fabulously for Kagome!" Souten jabbed me in the shoulder.
"Oh fuck off. Oi, what're your classes, Aniki?" I asked, peering over his shoulder.
"Shitty ones, now buzz off."
We continued on our way to Tama High, griping over our classes.
It took about ten minutes for us to arrive at the front entrance. A group of football players waved Souten over.
"See ya at lunch!" Souten hollered over his shoulder as he bounded off to his friends.
"Bye, Aniki!" I hollered back, "Natsumi."
"Yes, nee-chan?"
"Show Souta around for me, ne?" I asked her.
"Of course! Come on, Souta!" Natsumi grabbed Souta and they tore off through the school.
I entered the building and went over to my locker, awaiting the owner of the locker directly beside mine.
"Kagome-chan!" A girl with long brown hair tied into a high pony-tail shouted, running up to me.
"Sango-chan!" I gave the girl a whole-hearted hug.
"I've missed you so much! Sorry I didn't call much over the summer, you know how dad is with our phones on vacation!" Sango told me in a sincere tone.
"It's fine, I'm just glad to see you finally! It's been nearly three months.."
"Yeah, hey can I see your schedule?" Sango asked digging out her own.
"Sure."
Sango snatched the paper form my hand and quickly read over it. Her face fell, then rose, then fell again.
"What's wrong, San?" I asked, placing a hand on her shoulder.
"She's probably mad because she got all her classes with your perverted friend and none with you." Souten said as he walked over to us for a moment.
"Pfft! No! I have Kagome in three classes.." Sango said in a faltering triumph.
"Aaan how many do you have the perv in?" Souten asked with a knowing smirk.
"All of them..." Sango wiped away fake tears.
"Poor thing." I said in understanding.
"Where are your friends at anyways, Souten? Don't you have football for first hour?" Sango asked, giving him a stern look.
"Don't tell me you're ditching the first day, Souten!" I shook my head at my elder brother.
"Whaaaat, I would never!" Souten said in fake hurt, "Okay, fine! I was, but if it means that much to you, imoto, I'll go.."
"Thanks!" I said in a cheery tone, waving him off to class.
Thankfully Sango and I had first hour together. It was our trig class and I knew it would be hell. Sango picked two seats in the very back of the class and we sat down, immediately striking up conversation.
"So, is Daiki still at the house?" Sango asked.
"Yep, he refuses to leave even though he's graduating from college this year."
"The guy's twenty five years old! When is he gonna move out?"
"I dunno, but the good thing is that gramps started charging him rent!"
"No way!"
"Yes way! And he has to sleep in the add-on we had put in the shrine house!"
"That's what he gets for mooching off you guys for seven years!"
"Souten is just glad that he has his own room now!"
"What about Asuka? Do you and her still share a room?"
"Yeah, but she's planning on moving in with her boyfriend, Reiki, next year. Thank god! She's always borrowing my clothes!"
"But she's twenty and you're almost seventeen.. how do you fit the same si-"
"We don't."
"Oh that's groooosssss!"
"Gramps had moms room made into two so they take those two up. Souta, Hachi, and Tomoya share a room but once this year is over, Souta is sharing Souten's room until he moves out. Natsumi, Sayuri, and Tomoyo are sharing their room still but I think Natsumi is taking Asuka's place in my room next year." I sighed at the last part.
"And Buyo?"
"He also resides in my damned room!"
"Who takes up your moms room when she's out?"
"Usually Natsumi, and when Souta is pissed, he takes the couch."
"My, the sleeping arrangements have changed in my time gone, Kagome-chan! However will we have slumber parties now?!" Sango asked in mock sorrow.
"We have to share my little ass bed like always! Or make Asuka get the hell out!" We both laughed.
"Hello, ladies!" A boy with a short black ponytail and dark grey eyes said, approaching us.
"Oh great," Sango whispered to me, "Hey, Miroku!"
"Hello, Sango dearest!" Miroku said as he casually rubbed her butt.
*SLAP*
"PERVERT!" She shouted as she shoved him into the next desk.
He tumbled over it and lay in a state of shock on the floor. I sighed at their antic but made no move to help him up. He deserved no help, fo I knew he would caress my butt if I approached him.
"Damn it, Miroku! Already gettin knocked out by the girls!" A guy with long black hair and brown eyes called out, entering the classroom.
"HELP ME UP, INUYASHA!" The black haired boy known as Inuyasha yanked Miroku from his place on the ground.
"From the damage, I'm guessing Sango? Kagome usually makes you bleed and you look intact." Inuyasha pointed out, inspecting the hentai boy.
"I live with five guys, you learn to fight back! So why don't you go fuck yourself, Takahashi." I told them in my own defense.
We all laughed and took our seats. Miroku sat to the left of Sango while I sat to her right and Inuyasha sat to mine. Class began in five minutes so we got in as much conversation as we could in the time frame.
"Why are you here?" I asked Inuyahsa.
"Well, I decided to take a class with a bunch of fucking dumbasses to pass the time."
"Your poor soul." I said with sarcasm.
"Oh fuck off, Higurashi. You're such a bitch." Inuyasha bit out.
"Shut the hell up, I meant why are you sitting next to me, idiot."
"Just to piss you off, cu-" he was cut off by our teacher yelling at the class.
"ALRIGHT YA BUNCH OF BRATS! MY NAME IS MISTER NAOYA! I AM YOUR TRIGONOMETRY TEACHER FOR THIS YEAR! YOU WILL SHUT UP OR YOU WILL GET OUT!"
"Ugh.." I groaned out.
Class droned by ever so slowly and in what seamed like an eternity, the lunch bell finally rang. The worst part of my day was learning that, so far, I had every class with Inuyasha Takahashi. He was the biggest asshole in school next to my brother Souten. We had been enemies since the first day of middle school.
"Kagome!" Souten waved to me from his popular table.
I decided to go sit with him considering he had Souta and Natsumi with him as well. I took a seat in between Souten and one of his jock friends named Kouga. It took five seconds at the table for Kouga to turn and ask me to marry him. Souten punched him on top of his head and glared at him.
"Don't you fucking ask that to my sister, asshole!" Souten seethed.
"Sorry man!" Kouga told him, "She's just so beautiful."
"Yeah, well don't fuckin touch her."
"Thanks, aniki." I whispered to my brother.
He smiled and pulled our lunch sacks from my bag. He handed them out to all of us and we dug in.
"Man, nee-chan!" Souta called out mid bite, "This is good!"
"Thanks, Souta."
Out of all my brothers and sisters, Souta was the one I was closest to. I didn't know why, though. We just connect more than the rest. Mama says he was just my twin that stayed in the womb for two years.
It was then that my phone vibrated. I checked the screen and saw that Tama Middle School was calling. I knew it could have only meant trouble. I decided to take on the the second emergency contact slot for my brothers and sisters that were younger than me considering that our mom and grampa were usually unable.
"Hello?" I answered.
"Yes, miss Higurashi?" A woman asked.
"This is she."
"This is Principle Kazane from Tama Middle School. We have Chiyo Higurashi with us. She has gotten herself into quite a bit of trouble." The woman told me with a bitter tone.
"What happened?" I asked with disappointment.
"Chiyo decided to take it upon herself to beat up a classmate for no apparent reason- THAT IS NOT TRUE!" I heard Chiyo yell in the background, "Hush your mouth, Chiyo!"
"Can she wait in your office til I get out of school?" I asked in a hopeful voice.
The woman sighed and responded, "I suppose. But you should know that she will be suspended."
"I understand..Bye bye." I closed my phone and began to bang my head against the desk.
Souten slipped his hand under my head to stop it from making contact with the hard table, "What's wrong?"
"Chiyo is already suspended.."
"God fucking dammit!"
When we got home Daiki and Asuka were already there along with Chiyo, who sat miserably on the couch. Our mother and grampa were not home, surprise surprise, so we had to punish Chiyo. Daiki and Asuka went upstairs along with Souta and Natsumi leaving Souten and I with our little sister.
"What the fuck were you thinking, Chiyo?!" Souten screamed at her.
"I'm sorry, Aniki!" Chiyo started, tears pouring from her brown eyes.
Chiyo had black hair that was was tied into two long, low pigtails. She was very beautiful but she was such a trouble maker! I was always having to giver punishments and having to act like a mom while Souten tried to be a fatherly figure to her.
Souten didn't like hearing her excuses and slapped her straight across the face.
"You always do this to us, Chiyo! Your nee-chan and I work so hard to try and make you into a smart young woman and all you do is disappoint us! I don't like disciplining you, but you leave me no choice!" Souten raised his hand to strike her again but I grabbed his hand.
I knew I had to punish her too, to show her that he was not the only one disappointed. Plus, Souten shouldn't have to be the only one to have the burden of punishing a sibling. I slapped Chiyo hard. She cried and held her sore cheek.
"Go do the dishes." I told her in a low voice.
"Yes, nee-chan." Chiyo ran quickly to the kitchen and I heard the water start.
Souten plopped on the couch, his face buried in his hands.
"Get yourself together, Souten. We have to be strong."
Why did Souten and I have to share this burden? Daiki and Asuka were in their twenties for god's sake! Why didn't they ever fucking help?! I wanted to cry, but I knew I couldn't and I wouldn't. Souten and I grew up and became mom and dad for all of our sibling that aged below us.
I sighed and went to my bedroom. I opened the door to find Asuka in her birthday suit. I covered my eyes quickly and yelled at her.
"DAMMIT ASUKA! WHERE ARE YOUR CLOTHES?"
"I'm goin out tonight, I need to find somethin hot to wear." Asuka responded.
She had black/brown hair that went to her mid back. Her brown eyes weren't very outstanding but she was still beautiful, regardless. She was two inches taller than me and had some baby fat starting to form on her once supermodel body. No wonder she kept stealing my clothes.
"Can I borrow your black wedges?" She asked giving me her puppy dog eyes.
"If you put some clothes on, yes." I said in defeat, going over to my pink bed, "Wait, if you're going out.. who's making dinner?"
"Uhh, Natsumi can do it!" Asuka hollered over her shoulder as she quickly exited our room.
"WAIT, ASUKA!" I began but she was already gone. "NATSUMI!" I yelled out the door.
A few seconds later Natsumi threw open the door and stepped inside.
"You're making dinner." I told her in a serious voice.
"Wha! But that's Asuka's job!" Natsumi stomped her foot and crossed her arms.
"Do you see Asuka here? Didn't think so! Go make noodles and make Chiyo help you." I shooed her out of my room.
"Fine.." Natsumi left with a frown.
It was nearly 4 o'clock when three kids walked up our shrine steps. I leaned my head out the window and waved to them.
"SAYURI! TOMOYO! TOMOYA!" I hollered to them.
"NEE-CHAN!" They all waved back and ran towards the door.
It didn't take long for the twin five year olds Tomoya and Tomoyo to burst through my bedroom door.
"Tomoya!" I called to the little boy, "Were you and your sister good at school?"
"Yes, nee-chan! We had fun!" Tomoya answered as he and his sister, Tomoyo sat on the floor in front of me.
They pulled out there assignments from the day and requested my help. I got them through their homework in about seven minutes time. After we were finished I sent them downstairs to play with their toys until dinner was ready. I walked over to the computer desk that sat beside Asuka's maroon bed. I sat down and started up the computer.
I decided to log onto my facebook account for this first time in weeks. Not two minutes after I logged on a message from Asuka popped up.
Kag i need a faver
what do u want
gramps told me 2 clean the shrine house & i 4got can u do it plz thanks!
*Asuka is offline*
"UGH! DAMN YOU ASUKA!" I groaned to myself.
I had to clean the shrine house for her because if it wasn't done when mom and gramps finally came home from wherever they were, we'd all get whipped. I trudged down the stairs and made my way to the shrine house, changing into the dark blue shrine wardrobe first of course. If you were going to play the part, you had to look the part. Being a shrine maiden certainly had no perks. I began to clean the entirety of the shrine house.
"This dust is a killer!" I choked out, coughing from all the dust.
It took two hours for me to clean and a sudden realization made it all the much worse. It was my turn to clean again tomorrow. I wouldn't ask Asuka to do it for me when I was perfectly capable. Plus, I knew she wouldn't do it anyways. Once I was finished cleaning I went back inside.
"DINNER'S READY!" Natsumi called from the kitchen.
All of my siblings poured into the dining room from all parts of the house. I followed suit and sat at my place at the head of the table, Souten at the other end. Natsumi and Chiyo set bowls filled with noodles and slices of chicken in front of us before sitting down themselves.
"Before we eat, does anyone have anything they wish to share?" Souten asked everyone at the table, eyes landing on Chiyo.
"I.." Chiyo looked down with saddened eyes but I grabbed her face and forced her to look Souten in the face, "I'm sorry Aniki and Nee-chan. I never meant to disappoint you. Please forgive me." She said softly.
"You are forgiven, but still on punishment." Souten told her and she gave a little smile.
"DIG IN!"
*BEEP BEEP BEEP- SLAM*
My alarm clock blazed on until I tossed it from my night stand.
"OUCH!" I heard my sister yell.
I ignored her nonstop grumbling until she grabbed my hair and yanked me from the bed.
"ASUKA!" I screeched as she glared at me.
"You smacked me in the face with your alarm clock, bitch! " Asuka was clearly pissed.
"Get over it!" I told her with a glare.
Out of all my siblings, Asuka was the one I fought with the most. She was ungrateful and annoying all the time! I was more mature than her and she was a grown woman. She constantly takes my things and passes her responsibilities on to me. She was a kind of shitty older sister. I loved her, don't get me wrong! She just sucked at being a good sister.
I brushed my long hair quickly, looking in the large wall mirror in the bathroom I shared with Asuka. Asuka walked beside me and harshly shoved me out of the way so that she could apply her lipstick. I shot daggers at her but continued to brush my hair, refusing to join her senseless fighting. After Asuka finished her hair and makeup I started on mine. I applied a thin line of eyeliner and a little black eye shadow then put mascara on my long lashes. I pulled my uniform onto my body, my long hair fell over my shoulders and nearly reached my belly button.
I glanced at my phone for the time.
6am
School started in two hours. I had already finished getting ready so I went downstairs to wait for my brothers and sisters. I reached the bottom step and felt something underneath my feet. I tripped and my face slammed into the wooden floor. I groaned and held my aching forehead.
"Don't fuck with me, Kagome!" Asuka laughed and trotted away.
She had tripped me for literally no reason. I was so pissed off and was thankful that I had two hours to wait for my headache to go away. Asuka was in a bitchy mood today and I decided it was best to stay away from her. However, I couldn't resist the urge to get into it with Asuka. She tripped me down the fucking stairs! That bitch! I marched up to Asuka but stopped when I saw her near tears.
"What's with the fucking mood swings, Asuka?" I bit out angrily.
"Not now, Kagome..." She whispered, hiding something behind her back.
"What's behind your back?" I asked trying to grab whatever it was from her.
"Stop!" She tried to push me away with one hand.
"DAIKI!" I called out to my eldest brother.
He ran into the living room from the kitchen and stood by my side.
"What is it?" He asked smoothly.
"Asuka is hiding something, get it from her!" I told him.
I knew she was hiding something important! I mean it had her emotions all out of wack for god's sake! Daiki fought with Asuka for a bit but finally pried whatever it was from her fingers.
"Oh my god!" He sounded startled.
"Daiki please!" Asuka pleaded.
"YOU'RE PREGNANT!" He shouted causing the whole house to come running into the living room.
"No way!" I shouted as Asuka began to cry uncontrollably.
Daiki held the pregnancy test up for all to see and Souten maneuvered his way to the front of the group. He put his arms around Asuka before screaming at her.
"WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU THINKING, ASUKA!" Souten bellowed, "WE DON'T EVEN HAVE ENOUGH ROOM FOR YOU, LET ALONE YOUR BABY!"
"I know!" Asuka sobbed.
"What is wrong with you?!" I called out to my insane sister.
"It just happened!" She was obviously torn up about it.
"Hey Kagome! What'd you wanna talk about?" Sango asked as we walked to first period together.
"Asuka is pregnant." I told her.
"What?! You guys don't have enough room!" Sango waved her arms around frantically, freaking out enough for the both of us.
"Yeah, I know. She already got an earful from Souten this morning when Daiki found the pregnancy test." I told her as we entered the classroom.
"What do you think she's gonna do?" Sango asked solemnly.
"Honestly.. I'm almost one hundred percent sure that once the baby is born she's gonna bail out on us just like dad. Neither of them can handle responsibility. She's gonna drop the baby onto me and Souten just like she does with everything else." I nearly growled out.
"Let's hope she sticks this one out.." Sango placed a reassuring hand on my shoulder.
"Ah, so someone's pregnant!" Inuyasha exclaimed as he walked to his seat, "Did you whore around and get yourself knocked up Higurashi?"
"FUCK. YOU. TAKAHASHI."
"You aren't worthy of being fucked by me." Inuyasha threw out.
I stood up and walked over to his desk. He stood up, a challenge. I punched him hard in the face and he stumbled back a step. Once he regained his composure, however, he wrapped his hands around my wrists and roughly tugged my towards him. Once my body made contact with his, he sank his teeth into my neck. I tried not to scream in pain as he began to pierce my flesh.
"Inuyasha, stop!" Sango yelled at him.
I tried to kick him but it only served to make him angrier. I cried out in pain as his teeth met through my skin. My cry of pain seemed to snap him back to reality and he quickly removed his teeth from my neck. Looking down he saw a large puddle of my blood surrounding our feet. Noticing what he did he looked me in the eyes.
"Kagome, I-" He couldn't finish because I had fainted from blood loss.
I awoke in a white room. I tried to sit up but there was an immense pain in my neck.
"Where m I?" I asked, not knowing if anyone was there or not.
"Kagome!" I heard a familiar voice call out.
My thoughts crashed down upon me as I registered Inuyasha sitting beside me in the nurses office. My memories of our previous encounter flooding back to me.
"STAY AWAY FROM ME!" I cried out, scurrying away from him.
"Kagome, I am so sorry!" Inuyasha called out.
"Do you hate me that much, Inuyasha! Do you hate me so much that you'd try to kill me?!" I cried out.
He was speechless for a moment, "I don't hate you. I don't even know why I disliked you in the first place. I never meant to do this to you.. I can't believe.. I'm so angry at myself." Inuyasha let a tear fall from his eye.
"Kikyo." I said.
"Huh?" Inuyasha looked utterly confused.
"The reason you decided you didn't like me was because Kikyo told you not to." I told him with bitterness.
"Kikyo.. Yeah, she messed a lot of things up for me.." Inuyasha recalled.
"She's my distant cousin. Her and I never got along. She liked you.. and I.. liked you in middle school. I told her and she flipped shit on me. We fought and the next day I learned that you two were dating. You instantly hated me. That's why we don't get along. This is just the icing on the cake."
"I never knew you two were cousins.. I'm sorry.. wait. You liked me?" Inuyasha smirked.
"Don't flatter yourself. Like I said, middle school ! Plus, you just ripped a chunk of my neck out. I'm not feelin very much like for you right now." I said crossing my arms.
Inuyasha laughed a little and scratched the back of his head nervously, "Sorry about that. My dad passed on his anger issues to me. Anyways, if you don't mind me asking, who did you tell Sango was pregnant?"
"Um.. my sister, Asuka. She's pregnant." I told him warily.
Inuyasha sighed with relief and I shot him a questioning look, "Just glad it wasn't you. You don't need that right now."
"Thanks.. I think?"
"Daiki?" I called as I walked into the shrine house.
"What is it?" He responded opening his bedroom door.
"Where's Asuka?" I asked him.
"I dropped her off at the clinic and her baby daddy is supposed to meet her there." He answered with a shrug.
"Why didn't you stay with her?!" I asked furiously.
"Because she wanted me to leave!"
"What if she aborts it?!" I screamed at him.
His eyes widened and we both ran to the shrine steps. The clinic was only three blocks away so we made it there in less than five minutes. Daiki and I burst through the doors and he ran up to the front window.
"We need to see Asuka Higurashi!" He almost yelled at the woman.
"Uh, she on the first room to the left..?"
"THANKS!" We both called as we burst out the door in search of Asuka.
"Asuka!" Daiki called out opening the door.
"D-daiki? Kagome?" Asuka's eyes were widened and she paled.
"I fucking knew it!" I practically screamed.
"What do you think you're doing, Asuka?!" Daiki hollered at her.
"I just can't do it..." Asuka cried into her hands.
"...but I can." I said softly.
"Huh?" Asuka looked up.
"Have the baby and I'll keep it." I told her coldly.
"Kagome, no! You shouldn't have to-"
"Save it, Asuka. I'm taking your responsibility once again. Enjoy your fucking life." My voice was full of malice as I slammed the door and left.
"Let's go, Asuka." Daiki said as he helped Asuka out of the chair.
"We don't have to walk with Kagome right?" Asuka asked.
"Shut your fucking mouth, Asuka. Kagome's pissed but still doing you a life changing favor. She's willing to sign as the mother of your baby rather than you doing it. You owe her big, Asuka. " Daiki bit out as he met me outside of the clinic.
We walked in silence back home.
