***Its been awhile since I've actually written and hopefully you guys love this Story as well as the others. I have been so busy doing things in my life with sports and AP classes. But with out further waiting Here is my story!

The lights cast a sickly glow on to the concrete grounds as the women ran through different alleys trying to escape. The house had burst into flames and was slowly engulfing its surroundings. The fire illuminated the sky as if it wanted to reach for the stars. After a few minutes the women and her child stopped in a dark space under a flicking open sign behind a shop and collapsed on the floor from exhaustion. Her fingers dug into the earth as she tried to make sense of everything. She had just burned away her last memory of fairytale that could never be. It was a happily ever after that was engulfed in the fire and the coldness of her hair.

~~~Three years later~~~

Kagome fell to the floor gasping painfully for air as her husband towered over her. Slightly dazed from the impact she got up slowly but was knocked into the kitchen table from a hard smack to the face. Her lips were painted with her own blood. She was broken, beat down to imperfection and she couldn't take it any longer.

''Did you really think you could get away?'' Her husband yelled as he paced back and forth. Kagome gritted her teeth as she tried to slow her breathing so her ribs wouldn't hurt as much. Footsteps began to echo the hallway and their daughter came into the room.

''...Baby..go upstairs please'' Her father said as he tried to cover up the broken glass on the floor. Curious, their daughter peeked around her father and looked and her mom.

''...mommy?..,'' she began as she squeezed her teddy bear. ''you're bleeding..''

''No honey, your father and I are just playing around go upstairs...'' Kagome pleaded. Rin hesitated but complied with her mother's wishes and went up stairs. Inuyasha turned around and glared down at Kagome who was curled up into a corner.

''This shit better be cleaned up by the time I get home'' Inuyasha spat as he grabbed his coat, her car keys and left. This was the same routine Every. Single. Day. Inuyasha would come home and lash out on her when people are work pissed him off. It had gotten to the point that if she made harmless mistake he would strike her. Kagome sat in the corner dazed out as a single tear fell from her dark brown eyes.

'' No more...'' she whispered to herself before she slipped into unconsciousness.

The next day came too quickly for the family as the bright sun glared through the curtains and onto Kagome's face waking the sleeping beauty from her horrible dream. She opened her eyes to see her daughter staring at her worried. Rin was dressed in a flower jumpsuit and carried her yellow book bag on her back, her teddy bear's head sticking out. Kagome smiled and kissed her daughter's forehead and glanced at the clock which read 7:55am.

''Its okay mommy I called Auntie to take me to school.'' Rin said before her mom could panic. Kagome just smiled and nodded. Slowly she got up and walked slowly up stairs with the help of her daughter and went to take a shower. The door rang and Rin quickly opened the door and left to Shikon Elementary school with her Auntie after leaving a note. Kagome sat in the shower with her legs curled up to her chest. The hot water ran through her hair over face and down into the drain and she silently cried. She was stronger than this..no...She is stronger than this. Kagome stared at the glass door and at the moment she realized she had to break free or this would the end of her. The end of her daughter as well. Getting out the shower she now had a new mind set. Get out or Die Trying.
