Summary: It wasn't fair. The reason as to why she was locked up here. The reason as to why they all thought she was crazy. And it was because of this same reason that she hated. Sess/Kag

Chapter One: The Reason for a Cage and Release

It was pathetic. It infuriated her. How dare they? How dare her mother? Locking her up in this place. They said it was for her own 'good'. But what do they know. Absolutely nothing. They do not know of what she had to go through. They called her insane. A maniac. Crazy. But no, she was far from that. She was as sane as any other 'normal' person.

Kagome Higurashi, age 18, was curled up against a wall. Her long raven locks falling over her face. The poor girl still had slightly tanned skin even though she hadn't seen the sun for months. Her bright blue eyes that used to be so full of life and wonder was now a dull, lifeless glass. Her plain white gown was as dull as the four white walls in which she was encased in every single day. It was not the best of ways to live out one's young adolescent life. But at least today, she was going to be released, again. It had happened like this before. They wouldn't be able to find anything wrong with her. Then, they would release her, and she would find another doctor. But this time, it was different. This time, she would be released for good. The doctors had given up. They could not find anything wrong with her, and claimed that she was perfectly fine.

Kagome Higurashi, for the first time in 6 months would be able to live normal life. If only it was as simple as that. But it isn't. There are so many problems to be solved, and questions to be answered. The sound-proof door opened. A nurse in drab white clothes came up to Kagome a bit timidly.

"Miss Higurashi? Today you will be released. The doctors haven't found anything wrong with you. It seems to us that you are perfectly fine," the nurse said.

Damn right I'm perfectly fine. The fools think they actually know what they are talking about? Kagome thought.

The nurse gave Kagome a pair of clothes. The same clothes that she wore on the first day she arrived before they replaced it with the gown she was wearing. The nurse left so Kagome could change, and then came back a few minutes later with a wheelchair (you know just like the hospital, when you're leaving?) The nurse wheeled Kagome out to the entrance where Kagome had to cover her eyes from the sun. It took awhile for Kagome to get used to the light. When she finally adjusted to it, in front of her was her mother smiling gently at her.

"Kagome, it's wonderful to see you again," her mother said kindly.

Kagome just ignored her as she got into the car.

"They haven't been feeding you, have they," it sounded more like a statement. "Well you'll be eating a lot more when you get home."

There was no answer.

Mrs. Higurashi sighed. "I know that you might still be angry at me, but Kagome dear, you must trust me. It was for your benefit not mine."

"Hmph, yea right," Kagome mumbled.

"When will you learn to trust me?" her mother asked as they walked into the house together.

Kagome started marching up the stairs, but before she entered her room she replied harshly,

"Never."

She slammed the door and locked it.

A/n: Yes I know this is really really short, but think of it as a prologue.
