A/N: Ok… I know I already wrote this once already, but I didn't really like the way that it was written… So I am deciding to re-write it already… lol. Sad, I know. Since I am re-writing it I hope that I get more than two reviews, lol. Yea… I hope that this actually turns out better, and I have a person editing these now, so I hope the grammar and uses of words are correct. Well, I hope that you enjoy!

Prologue

It was a dark night, a night in which was not a great night for everyone. The air was cold and crisp, nipping at your skin. The wind howled through the trees, making a whistling sound that could be heard in every ear. Leaves fell from the trees and rushed along the ground, a trail was being formed; the wind was blowing to the south. A dark and mysterious shadow ran through the woods near a road, hoping that they could get to the road; to civilization before the creatures that were tracking them would have to turn back.

Yet this person was not so lucky. The road was farther away than they thought and exhaustion was coming up on them quickly. And to top it off, an river flowed angrily from the snow melting in the mountains, blocking her path. Yet, what was it they were really running from? This person, this teenage girl, did not know exactly. She knew that demons of many kind lived among humans-hell she was even friends with some, but these guys tracking her seemed different… they wanted her for something.

It all had started about two weeks ago…

-Flashback-

A teenage girl sighed as she walked up the steps to her wondrous, yet not so wondrous house. She placed her key in the door and hearing the *click* she opened the heavy door and looked around. It seemed different this time when she walked in, it was quiet. There was no sound of her father watching sports in the living room to her right, there was no music playing lightly in the kitchen as her mother cooked dinner… No younger brother running to her and welcoming his older sister home. It was weird… Different and the girl didn't know why.

"Mom, I'm home!" She yelled. There was no answer other than her own voice bouncing off of the walls and creating an echo. "This is odd… There are cars parked outside, yet there is nobody here… Tanya!" She yelled. Tanya was their demon maid, or in other words slave, that never left their house until everyone was sleeping lightly in their rooms.

She shook, a cold breeze coming in from the open door. She turned around and closed it, and started her journey upstairs; something she never should've done. As she got up the stairs, a metallic smell caught her attention. It was a strange smell, something that was weird to her senses, something in her gut told her to turn back, but curiosity held onto her tightly.

Her footsteps lead her down the hallway, and into her little brothers' room, where she found her brother… Lying on his bed, all sprawled out… Blood leaking from his head… He was laying a pool of his own blood. The girl covered her mouth to keep from vomiting right there. Then she remembered her parent. Her eyes grew in horror. She ran down the rest of the hall and opened the door at the very end. Now this sight, she couldn't handle.

Vomit spilled onto the floor; mixing with her parents' blood. After she was done and her last meal was out of her, she examined the sight in front of her. There was blood smeared all over the walls; it was very fresh, like it had only happened a few minutes before she opened the front door. Her mother, like her brother was on the bed, yet she had her hands tied to the head and her mid section her been cut open with a knife and her innards were spilling out of her to the side; her eyes, what made the girl start to cry, still looked like they had life in them… They were open and had horror all over them.

Her father, was not in sight from the door of the room, but as the girl entered and went to examine the bathroom, blood was in the tub and her father laid there, in his work clothes like he had just gotten home. His throat was slit extremely deep and blood ran down his body and the bath, instead of a nice, warm water bath, was a warm blood bath.

As the girl walked out of the bathroom, she noticed something in the middle of the room; it was a piece of paper untouched by blood, it read:

Dear Kagome,

I am sorry that you had to come home to this sight of your family murdered. Wait, what am I saying, no, I'm not sorry. I had a lot of fun actually, more fun than what I have in killing before. I'm betting that you don't have a clue as to why I did this to you, your family, but that is for me to know as well as my collogues, not for you. I just wanted to let you know, that I will be back for you. You have what I want, what I need, and I'm going to need it sooner or later. You're just lucky that you weren't home when I came earlier this afternoon, or else you would be like your brother, mother and father-cold and lifeless. But I will be back, I will be back to get you. You can run and you can try to hide, but I will get to you. I will kill you."

The letter was signed, but not with a signature. It was signed with a smear of blood. As she looked farther down the letter, it continued.

P.S: If you call the cops, I will come after you sooner. So might I suggest not and just leaving to a 'safe' place, not like it will do you any good then.

See you soon dear one.

Her breath grew faster… She ran. Ran out of the house and out of the city, into the woods. Where she thought she would be safe. She was, for a few weeks. Until the one who killed her family, the one that was going to kill her, came to look.

-End Flashback-

The girl got to the river, where exhaustion finally took her till morning, where she woke up in a strange place…

A/N: Well, there you go… It's extremely different from the one that I have, Kagome is older than the age of 12 (if you couldn't guess) and it's going to go off into a different way… I will try to fit the slavery thing, and if someone asks for a setting, I will make a *Setting* chapter so I can let you guys know exactly what time it took place… Yea, please review
