My Heart Will Be Taken Away By the Breath of Your Love

My name is Kagome Higurashi. I am 15 years old. My hobby? Strip dancing. I go to the closest strip club that I can find. I don't strip for fun. I must raise money for my family. My grandfather is in a mental hospital thinking that he can see demons. My mother is really sick. The doctors say that she might have cancer but they needed more money if they wanted to find more about it. What a rip-off… And my brother Souta goes to school. I quit school when I was 12 and I've been strip dancing for 3 years now. My dad has been dead for almost 6 years now.

My father died because of someone who worked for him was jealous of him. My father was the manager of this really large company and he would come home every day with a lot of money for me, Souta, Mama, and Grandpa. I missed him so much when he died. I know that he wanted me to be happy but I wasn't. I felt tears swelling in my eyes. I hadn't cried for years and now. Why do I cry now? Again? I tried to stop myself. But they wouldn't stop coming. I thought I had become strong but I was wrong. I'm still weak.

"DAMN IT ALL!! WHY'D YOU HAVE TO LEAVE?! NOW MY LIFES A LIVING HELL!! And it's all because of you having to be killed by some bastard who's still working there. He still has your spot. I will avenge you, father," I said my voice going from loud to soft.

"Kagome. You're up next, okay?" My friend, Shinaki, told me.

"Okay," I said wiping the tears off my face. She didn't notice because she was putting her close back on. Shinaki was my only friend since I had left school. I wouldn't consider her my best friend cuz she could blow up at me and never say that she was sorry or anything… she was just a friend to keep me company.

I never wanted to strip dance. I tried to find jobs but they refused to let me work there. So I came here. My mother didn't know because I lied and told her that I had gotten a really good job. But strip dancing wasn't good enough. I tried to serve as a maid in a rich person's home but I kept on screwing up. I had gotten a job at a McDonald's as my second job. I work midnight shifts. My mother also doesn't know about this.

"KAGOME!! HELLO?! YOU'RE UP!!" Shinaki yelled in my ear.

"Alright!! I'm going!! I'm going!!" I told her. Boy did she get on my nerves sometimes…

After tonight I'm going to have enough money to go to school. I had been saving some money from my midnight hours to go to school. I had to stop and now I'm starting again. It's strange what life has planned for you.

I got out to see the same amount as guys as I did yesterday. Maybe a little more than yesterday but who cares? Well, I don't. At least I get the money. That's all I'm here for. No sex, no nothing. Just stripping. That's all there is to this job. When I got out there, I saw two new guys. They looked different. They both had whit hair, but they didn't look old. They looked pretty young. One had a strange puffy white thing over his shoulder. The other had little cat like ears on top of his head. They had clothes from the Sengoku Period. I remember a picture I saw in a book from school a long time ago. They looked like demons. I gasped. They looked right at me. They had piercing amber eyes. I had never seen a demon before. I knew that they existed but I never knew that they would just come in public like this.

After I had stripped I went back stage to change.

A/N: How'd you like that? I know it's short but next time I'll try to make it longer. This is a pretty old fic that I had. I just felt like posting it for no good reason at all. If it's good, then just let me know and I'll continue for you guys. I think this might get interesting if I do continue. So, just review or flame. Whichever you like to put up. I don't care. All I want are reviews. So please review for this poor girl.
