Shugo Chara/Inuyasha: Kagome/Ikuto- Lovely Losses.
Summary: After defeating Naraku and sealing the jewel Kagome is turned back... into a 10 year old! Now, after moving to another city Kagome has to cope with a world she could never have imagined even existed.
Announcement: Before, when I was picking the title for this story I had originally wanted it to be called "Lovely Lies" but then I forgot the 'Lies' part of the name and just put 'Losses' in because It was better than just 'Lovely' ... so yeah, I remembered and changed it back.
This is in response to Bishonen'sFoxyMiko's Challenge. For you guys, a Kagome/Ikuto pairing. Hope ya like!
I've finally gotten around to putting this story on my main account (Which of course is the one you are currently reading this from- i luv niki4444) and I'll try to get another update out for you guys soon! XD
Kagome smiled solemnly, gazing up to the stars. There was no moon tonight, the sky sparkling with millions of the beautiful miniature suns.
This town was much less polluted than Tokyo, where the smog was to thick to see them. It was more like the Feudal Era here, though the stars could never shine brighter than they had there.
Half a year had passed since Kagome had been returned to her own time. She'd been turned into a child, a mere shadow of her former self.
Kagome looked down at herself with a soft sigh. "I look like a board... not even a tall board." She was now shorter than most of the children in Souta's class! A 16 year old, only around 4' 2"!
Mrs. Higurashi had panicked seeing her daughter in such a state, before deciding the only solution was to keep pretending she was sick. Then, two weeks ago someone had shown up that Kagome never thought would turn up again.
Sesshomaru.
He'd informed her that she would be staying with him.
Sighing Kagome broke out of her thoughts. He was currently using his status and power to convince the super intendant of Seiyo Elementary to allow her to join. Kagome smiled slightly, she'd be in by morning and attending by the end of the week.
Her blue eyes shined mischievously. "And then..."
"Imouto?" Kagome's eyes snapped up as she turned to Sesshomaru, he hadn't been lying around these past two weeks.
He'd worked very heard to get her all the necessary paperwork and proving that her name was actually Kagome Taisho, his younger sister and heir to the famous Takahashi Corp.
"Yes Aniki?" It wasn't exactly a total act on their part, Sesshomaru and Kagome had gotten very close back in the Feudal Era when he'd taken her under his wing.
He taught her how to fight, how to survive, nothing can tear a bond of a master and his student.
"You must prepare yourself. The principal will send you the school uniform tomorrow, then you will be attending at 12 p.m."
Kagome smirked. "So I get to start on a Monday... Joy."
He huffed slightly, though amusement shone through in his eyes. "Hn... watch yourself, we don't want them to realize what you are."
Kagome stiffened, the cursed jewel had not only taken her age... but her humanity as well. Turning her into a Neko Demoness, the changes to her appearance were... quite noticeable.
Her once pale skin had a sunkissed tan, her normal face, grew elegance and beauty, and her body looked... like a female version of Sesshomaru, except shorter and more feminine. Yeah, she looked good... for a 10 year old.
Sesshomaru noticed her weary form and pressed a soft kiss on her forehead. "Leave now, you need rest."
She nodded slightly giving one last glance to the stars, before walking smoothly off the balcony and navigating her way through the large manor to her bedroom.
Kagome sucked in a deep breath as she opened the door and took in her room once again, she had long since gotten over the size, but the beauty could still overwhelm her.
She sighed slightly, reaching for the top drawer of her oak dresser and feeling the slippery fabric of her night clothes. Kagome quickly shed the dress she'd been forced into that morning, in favor of the silky green nightgown her favorite niece had given her.
Kagome smiled slightly at the thought of Rin, who seemed to be very enthusiastic about the things she wore, and demanded that even though she was now a child, she still wore... some adult things.
Relaxing Kagome let the hidden features of her demon emerge. Cute black cat ears appeared on the top of her head whiskers grew on her cheeks, as well as claws from her fingertips, and lastly she sprouted a long black tail that looked much like a panthers.
Kagome looked at her self in a mixture of relief and annoyance. Why couldn't she just be like Sesshomaru and the normal demons, elfin ears would be some much better than a cats, she looked more like a hanyou this way!
But at the same time, it was such an inconvenience to have her demon features invisible, like when she wanted to grab a cup of tea and misjudged the length of her nails! Instant downer for everyone.
Lying down on the large king sized mattress she took hold of her remote control from a nearby nightstand and clicked on the TV, propping herself on her forearms as she gazed at the screen.
There was currently a rather large woman screaming words that couldn't be made out, before she seemed to calm down and she looked directly at the camera, sending chills down Kagome's spine as the woman seemed to look right at her. "We all have a guardian angel, standing right behind us, taking care of us.
"No matter who you are, a guardian angel stands right behind you guarding your true self."
Kagome snorted, ready to change the channel. "And if you don't believe it... YOU'LL DIE!"
Kagome's eyes widened as she muttered. "It almost sounded like she was talking to me."
The woman's eyes glared at her. "I AM talking to you!"
Kagome quickly clicked the TV back off, flinging the controller across the room.
Kagome stared in shock at the flat screen. "Bullshit." She finally whispered, before getting under the covers. "If there was a guardian behind me it would help me have the courage to be the person I truly want to, to be my would-be-self."
Kagome's face softened as she closed her eyes. "But... if you do exist, I'm sorry for mocking you, if you exist... please give me the courage I seek! So I can truly be who I want to!"
Kagome's eyes opened sluggishly, breathing in the crisp morning air. "What ya want." She muttered to the blob she'd deemed had woken her.
"Kagome-sama your school uniform has come in."
Kagome blinked away the grogginess. "Rida-chan?"
Rida was a dog demoness Sesshomaru had been acquainted with around 200 years ago, after saving her life from a bunch of demon hunters, she'd insisted eternal service to him. She had black hair, and warm onyx eyes, wearing the standard colors of the Taisho household. Black and silver.
She and Kagome had quickly become friends, and often chatted animatedly when Kagome helped her in the kitchen... something Kagome wasn't suppose to be doing.
The maid was currently directing a curious gaze at her. "Yes, milady?"
"Why did you wake me up to announce that?"
Rida shrugged. "Sesshomaru-sama told me to come get you immediately after it arrived." A strange glint entered the woman's eyes as she focused on the top of Kagome's head. "May I milady?"
Kagome sighed, waving a hand at her. "No! Rida-chan, I'm really sensitive ther-"
The maid squealed and launched herself at Kagome's ears.
"Oh they're so cute!" She cried rubbing the appendages softly, resulting in a purr from Kagome.
"Oh right there! IT FEELS SO GOOD!" Kagome cried, squirming away from Rida's hands slightly.
"... Milady?"
Kagome turned to look at her friend's red face. "Huh?"
"...What was that?"
Kagome blushed in mild embarrassment, "Told you I was sensitive didn't I? Rin-chan keeps doing it to-"
"KAGOME-CHAN!" The door burst open and a girl that looked around 17 gazed at Kagome hungrily, the girl's eyes glinted. "Did I just here someone playing with your ears?"
Kagome gulped, waving her head back and forth frantically. "Um... no? Anyway, Rida- chan do you mind showing me to my school uniform now?"
Rida glanced between Kagome -who seemed frightened- and Rin -Who looked disappointed, like a child told she couldn't play with her favorite toy-. "Of course, Kagome-sama, follow me."
She got of Kagome, who got up as well. "Where is it?" Kagome asked curiously, suddenly nervous about what it might look like.
Rin grabbed her hand, "Come on! It's in the kitchen Kagome-chan! You'll love it, it's completely adorable!"
She literally dragged Kagome halfway through the house to the kitchen, Kagome fell to her knees, panting as soon as her captor had stopped. Rin meanwhile was so busy gushing over the uniform, picking it up and twirling around as if to showcase it.
Finally, when Rin noticed that Kagome wasn't squealing with her she looked down and began to sweat drop, "Um... Kagome-chan? Do you like it?"
Kagome looked up with tired eyes, which widened slightly when she saw the uniform. "That's the... I have to wear that?"
Rin nodded enthusiastically. "Yep!"
Kagome blinked, before muttering darkly. "Oh hell no!"
Kagome sighed, she'd made a few minor adjustments before allowing the uniform to be put on her (A complete violation of her privacy) and put her hair in a half up half down ponytail.
It was 7a.m. and Sesshomaru insisted on having her there by 8:20a.m. simply because he didn't want her missing her first few classes. (as the principal had scheduled.)
She sighed for the 15th time that day. "Why do I have to go to school in a uniform like this!"
Rida's voice giggled behind her. "Oh come now Kagome-sama! It's looks awesome now that you've made some... changes to it."
"Shut up." Kagome muttered back, her cheeks flushing in embarrassment.
Okay... so that was the first chapter. I hope you liked it and please don't send me flames! XD
