Chapter One:

The Beginnning

Fully Summary:

It was like any other morning that started in Rin's life.

Hearing the annoying alarm that can never turn off, sleep in for about five more minutes, Have mom pull you out of bed, jump in the shower. Only to find out your annoying older brother used up all the hot water, so you have a choice to either take the chance and not shower or suck it up and jump in the cold shower and plot out your revenge. Get dressed in the hamming downs that dates back to possibly the eighties when clearly you live in a generation filled with nonsense music about twerking, and body shots. Go down stairs get breakfast, catch the bus and go to school.

In other words this life, Rin's life, is completely and utterly boring that a cockroach has seen better in its time.

Luckily this isn't Rin's life.

Nowhere close to Rin's life.

Rin's life consist of Danger, Forbidden Romance, and what else is missing?

Oh Yes, Tragedy and Triangles.

The Works.

"There is a price to be paid when it comes to love, you of people should know this Rin" He said, it sound more like a warning as the gun was pointed at the conscious but barely moving body at the feet of Rin. Fear entered the veins like a shot of heroine being entered in for the first time—fast and unsettling. Rin could not think with the glock 42 pointing right at the body that Rin is desperately trying to save.

"I understand Ryura, but is this really how you want me to learn my lesson?" Rin questioned "With a gun pointed right at your partner's body?"

"Does it matter?" He answered "The beauty of tragedy is that the protagonist will learn what it means to love, and in order to learn the lesson you are going to have to start killing off the ones that the protagonist cares for most"

Rin did not know where he was going with this, Ryura has always been the unpredictable type. Rin knew better than to drag him along down this road, going blind by trusting him.

Now it seems that the trust is coming back to repay with a gun pointed at his brother.

"Sometimes, I wish you would have chosen me instead of him" He whispered "At least I would have treated you the way you deserved to be treated"

"Ryura—"He points the gun at the body again and removes the safely off. Rin could not think fast enough, as the next words were about to fly out of the mouth. Once the trigger was pulled back Rin could not do anything but move, to test the theory between the speed of the racing bullet and adrenaline running through Rin's body, racing to defy that bullet's destination.

"Rin!"

The alarm rings at precisely five o' clock in the morning. Not a minute before nor a minute after. It is how he likes things to be done. He keeps everything clean, scheduled, and most of all perfect. Anything that is not the way he keeps things then he simply fixes it until it is to his liking. He only wants a lavish lifestyle that he has worked so hard for, and he will not allow it to be a sloppy mess that holds no substance. Getting out of bed, he does his morning routines; it consists of his daily exercises, showering and a morning review of his company's stocks and paperwork.

"Mr. Takahashi, your morning masseuse is here" His maid announced, his stoic face showed no expression to let the maid know what her incredibly handsome boss is thinking. She always wonders the sexuality of her employer, he is always busy that he never has the time to date. Then again he is a cold, son of a bastard that nearly got her deported because she did not cook his eggs right; which is why she secretly spits in them from time to time. Smiling at her thoughts, she failed to see that her boss left her alone in the room to head to the private room that he has design for his massages.

"Kaede, call Byakuya and tell him to forward all calls to my cellphone" He commands, she shivered from the coldness in his voice. He will never find someone that will love him if he continues to be cold and distant, but at least in the meantime his slutty masseuse will keep his "thoughts" company. Kaede, rolling her eyes at the thought, realized that she is not his secretary to do all this work, just a maid.

"fils de pute sournoise (sneaky son of a bitch)" She muttered, in one of her many talents of speaking seven different languages that Mr. Takahashi knows like the back of his hand. Moving to the kitchen she decided to call Byakuya after all and perhaps plant the seed to make Mr. Takahashi hire a Secretary to do all the unnecessary crap he makes Kaede do, that a maid should not be doing.

"Hi, Byakuya?" She questioned, she only spoke to the man once.

"Hey Kaede, what's up?"

"Nothing, I'm curious to know if there is an application to hire a secretary for monsieur Takahashi?" she asked, a wicked smile spread across Kaede's lips as Byakuya tells him he's never really thought about it until now.

revoir bâtard she thought, as Byakuya tells her he is making calls about the position.

"Rin"

"Hmm"

"Wakey, Wakey eggs and bakey" Rin's mom says. Rin rolls over trying to sleep a little more, it was a long night last night with the Advance biology homework, along with the studying for next week's pop quiz on constant motion in advance physics. It amazed Rin how much studying was done and still managed to find time to read another good book by one of the greats: James Patterson. Nearly finishing "Sundays at Tiffany's" Rin fell asleep with the book in hand and yesterday's clothes still on.

"Rin, you have school today"

"Abi, it's Sunday" Rin answered, but only heard laughter in her ear.

"Honey, Sunday was Yesterday"

"That would mean"

"That today is Monday?" Her step-mother questioned, checking her watch she timed the sudden outburst in three…two…one…

"Abi!" Rin yelled while jumping out of bed quickly.

"How could you just sit there and let me sleep, don't you know it is imperative that I keep an impeccable record?"

"Honey don't be a drama queen, it doesn't suit you"

"Says the woman who became an actress than Broadway show director"

Rin's step-mother laughed before kissing Rin's forehead.

"I swear you take that smart mouth from your father, one of these days it will get you in trouble" She answered.

"Don't worry Abi, I'm too invisible for my smart mouth to catch me" Rin answered.

"Sweetie you are beautiful, I just wish you can see what I see"

"You're the mom, it's your job to tell your step-daughter whom you've given a male's name that" Rin answered giving her mother a cheeky smile. Her mother let out a small giggle before giving her daughter one last kiss on the forehead.

"I know I'm your step mother Rin, but maybe do you think now would be a good chance to just call me mom? I know I can never replace her but I practically watched you grow up" Abi stated, Rin looked at her and knew Abi was right. Abi respected Rin's wishes to leave her be when her mother died of cancer and Rin was the perfect step child when her father decided to marry Abi. She grew attached to Abi, she always knew what to do when Rin was having issues with school and was truly the dream mother she never had. Looking at Abi she gave her the best smile she could muster up and nodded.

"Just like your father, hurry, get dressed your brother Naraku is waiting for you" She answered, she looked at her daughter one more time before leaving the door to frown. Rin knew she was going to cry, it's been three months since her father died and it still did not catch up with Abi. Rin was the last person that was with her father when it all happened, no one knew that he had a brain aneurysm nor that it would burst any minute, he was the healthiest man Rin knew but Kami said otherwise. Which sucks since their Abi is nowhere near catholic. Rolling her eyes, Rin got up to head in her closet to find a pair of Naraku's washed up jeans and paired it with one of his old hoodies. She was passed down all his hammy downs, which sucks since she is a girl and not a boy, but how was she supposed to know she is to be a girl instead of a boy that her mother anticipated. Her mother for some reason really wanted boys, and when she held her baby girl, she decided to still give her a boy name and treat her like a boy by giving her healthy baby girl her father's name. But Rin changed it from "Ren" to "Rin" because she was born a girl and wished to be named as a girl, and also wished to be the female verison to her father's name; she remembered fighting hard with her mother about it but once her father sided with Rin all bets were off the table.

"RJ, either you get your ass down here or you can kiss that perfect record goodbye" Naraku called out.

Sadly some people still associate the Jr. in her name, by some, she means her asshole of a step-brother Naraku and her best friend Kagura—who use to hook up with her step-brother…a lot. Life is swell for Rin Onigumo—Life is actually Hell, but whose judging.

"Don't get your panties in a twist Naraku, I am just having trouble moving in your damn clothes that you so luckily grew out of when you used to be the height of five flipping ten!" Rin yelled, her brother smiled at his baby sister's rants.

"It's not my fault I grew into the proud six feet two inches you see today" He mocked, which is one of Rin's pet peeves, she hates it when people mocks her. It makes her already feel like the loser she knows she is, the only reason she has yet to acclaim that title is her senior of a step-brother Naraku Onigumo, captain of every sport team and class president as well as a shoe in for prom king. Her step-brother is what the girls say in the bathroom, the Smart Sex symbol of our generation; while Rin was still stuck in the stone ages. It's not her fault her father decided to marry a demoness and adopt a half-breed demon for a brother, it is bad enough she goes to a school filled with demons and only a few selected handful of humans are allowed to attend. And just thinking about yesterday's encounter with Kikyo made her feel ten times worse, shooting her head down; she walked passed her demon step brother and headed towards their father's sleek black Z4 roadster BMW. She jumped in and tucked her body in to show that she did not want to be bothered with anything, but only her thoughts, which only leaves her to her father's death via being in the car when it happened three months ago.

'God I hate this car' she thought, but she could not say that aloud before they send her to a therapist to figure out why she would hate a perfectly good car when in reality it is her that she truly hates for being helpless and weak. To just watch her father die in her arms. She still remembers his very last words to her before he died.

"Don't be scared to Live Rin" was his dying words. No I love you, or tell Abi I love her since they are soulmates. But for her to live life and not be scared, which is a load of crap. She has always lived her life safe with precaution and responsibility. She has never done anything daring or wild because it is not her, that's all Naraku the Golden Boy. Feeling so pissed with herself that she is the boring, dull and safe child while her step-brother is out there living life like it is his last and she is just…stuck in hers. She felt her nose beginning to sting, and the tears betraying her inner thoughts by releasing how she truly feels about herself. It is quite sad, she thought. Her own body rejected her just how life rejected her existence. She did not want this, she wanted something else, one that is form fitting and daring at the same time.
But she knew only something like that exist in a place where the impossible is possible and every waking wish can actually come true: Her dreams.

Arriving at the good ole St. Vincent High, a reform catholic school that went public. Rin zipped out of her brother's car to head to the library where she can be alone, and cry like the whiny girl she tried so hard not to become. She does not have a first period because she is quite ahead of her junior class, because of her intellectual brain, the school did not want to a seventeen year old girl to be ahead of her year—when in reality they did not want her to upstage her brother. Naraku is the Golden boy around here and Rin is well—the shadow to her brother's shadow.

"Stupid Monday morning" Rin whispered, she made it to the library and hide between a places no one would ever think to look. In between the encyclopedias and other older books that no one bothers with anymore. Sitting in the corner, Rin tried her hardest to hold in her emotions. It is bad she is labeled the whiney bitch Onigumo; she failed miserably once the first tear escaped her eye.

"Rin?" Kagura called out, Rin felt everything stop inside her. She started to scramble everything around her in order to get herself together. If Kagura finds her in tears she will report to Naraku whom she is still in love with and have Naraku talk to her. The last thing Rin needs is her step-brother trying to fight her demons (no pun intended). Drying the last of her pity tears, she pulled up the first book that is close to her and pretended to read it.

"Rin?" Kagura called out walking towards the bagged clothed girl. Rin looked up from the book to see a fiery red eyed girl, with a tight black leather skirt and red tube top with blood red heels to match. Her fair skin glowed under the florescent lights and brought out her red lipstick, her scheming eyes saw right through her best friend.

"Hey Kagura, what's up?" Rin smiled, while trying to casually tried to stay calm. Any hint of her emotions then it is Naraku to the rescue. Kagura's piercing glare started to make Rin shift her body weight, ever since they met, Kagura's dominance loomed over Rin in an uncomfortable way. Rin is not much of a strong willed girl, she is considered to be the weak one, the "passive" Onigumo that is.

"Spill your guts Onigumo" Kagura demanded, whenever Kagura knows something is going on between her or her brother she would say their last name. Rin looked at her aggressive best friend and smiled.

"I wanted to catch up on my reading" Rin replied.

"Really?" Kagura asked, Rin can hear the sarcastic tone in her voice but she brushed it off.

"You know me the intelligent book worm" Rin smiled.

"Reading a book from the eighties?" Kagura pointed out. Rin looked at the spine of the book to see that it is really a book from the eighties.

"How did you—"

"Call it a lucky guess, Rin were you crying?" Kagura questioned.

Rin immediately stayed quiet, she looked everywhere but to her best friend.

"No, I just had something in my eye" Rin answered.

"Oh Really?" Kagura questioned, she folded her arms while lifting her eyebrow to show her friend that it is complete and utter bullshit.

"Kagura you know the books here are super old and dusty; so the dust got in my eye" Rin defended. Kagura still did not believe Rin, Rin is like an open book: easy to read and not that hard to figure out.

"Well, it is almost second period; Naraku wanted me to drag you back before you miss an entire day of school" Kagura stated.

Rin grabbed her things and stood up to let the baggy clothes drop down making her body feel heavy. She honestly hates her step-brother and his stupid growth spurt. She obviously needs a new wardrobe but that won't happen anytime soon since she does not have a job.

"I need a life Kagura" Rin muttered, Kagura smiled and then an idea sparked inside.

"I think I can help you out with that" she replied while pulling out her phone to make a quick phone call.

"I just need to make a quick phone call, I'll meet you at lunch later" Kagura announced, Rin nodded and headed off to her first class of the day. Once Rin was out of sight, she pressed a few buttons and smiled to herself.

"Byakuya, how's my favorite cousin doing?" Kagura announced while smiling.

"I remembered you offered me a job earlier today, but I think I found someone who can get the job done and who fits the bill to a ten" Kagura replied. She strutted down the library while setting up an interview for her best friend today. She did hate to see her best friend living a life that she could not have any color in, so like any good friend Kagura found a way to put some color in her best friend's life by setting her an interview at one of the top media companies on the Upper East side of new York.

"Today we will are having a pop quiz on constant motion today then we are going to review chapters three and four" Rin's professor announced, everyone groaned but Rin smiled. As the professor handed out the test, Rin grabbed her pen and allowed her hand and brain do the talking; using the extra time she checked over her answers for the twentieth time before handing it in.

"Ms. Onigumo finished early as always" Her professor said, she graded the work in front of her and placed a huge 'A' on it. The professor grabbed a hall pass and signed her name before handing it over to Rin.

"I think my star student can take the period off" She said, she jerked her head to the door. Rin smiled, and took off with her things. As she left she wanted to head over to the library to clear her head, heading over to the library she was suddenly stopped by Kagura.

"What the hell Kagura?" Rin swore, Kagura's face suddenly lit up hearing her best friend swear in public. She placed her hands on her hip with a secret spreading across her lips.

"Shouldn't you be in calculus with Naraku?" Rin asked. Kagura brushed her question off to head inside the library. Rin knew Kagura loves to skip a class, her valid reason as to why she skips is because she gets bored. Too bad every other class she takes is boring.

"Just because you pass a class without trying does not mean you shouldn't at least be marked for attendance"

"I got you a job" Kagura answered.

"Are you purposely obtuse, attendance is everything and if you don't—"Rin stopped talking when she heard what Kagura did for her.

"You did what?" Rin asked, she did not know how to feel with the whole job thing.

"I, your best friend Kagura, got you a job interview at the most top companies Times Square today" Kagura stated. Rin felt confused and unsure about her friend's gesture, sure it was nice of her to get her an interview but she felt a bit upset that Kagura pitied her horrid lifestyle enough to get her a job interview. She could have turned it down and accuse her best friend for pitying her for being a loser but when Rin looked at her she did not see pity, but a chance. A chance to finally obtain color in her black and white life.

"I don't have clothes for an interview" Rin answered. Kagura sized her friend up and down and realized that she only had the hammy downs from her step-brother but an idea sparked inside her head.

"That won't be an issue" Kagura answered she pulled her best friend to follow her lead.

"You can walk in heels right?" Kagura asked, Rin did not have a chance to say anything because Kagura shrugged her shoulders and told her that they will figure it out as they go. Rin knew she was in for it big time.
