...The Prologue...

Kagome Higurashi. Just hearing the name sent chills down your spine...Kagome Higurashi. She used to be Sango's best friend, until her body was corrupted by an evil spirit; no, make that an evil demon...A demon named Kojigoku, meaning "Hell Child"... Kagome Higurashi. She was the girl that invited her friends to 'experiment' the game "Light as a feather, stiff as a board". It was Kagome Higurashi's turn to lie in the middle when her body was corrupted...That had been a week ago, exactly one year after the incident...

Sango, a chestnut-colored haired girl with hazel eyes, wearing a clad white uniform shirt and green skirt, walked down the hallway of her naturally boring school. Her best friend, Kagome, had gone here, too... Sango never spoke again after the incident, had not spoken to anyone. But today, she couldn't help but overhear people making or spreading rumors. Make that Kagome Higurashi rumors...

"I heard that that Higurashi chick went crazy and had to go to rehab. I mean, did you see the way how she'd stand up in the middle of class while sensei was teaching, and yell out some guy's name how she'd never forgive him? Some weird name, like InuYasha. I think his parents must've been dropped on their heads to name him that."

Sango was starting to get pissed off...Her eyes turned into dancing fireballs...

"How dare you talk about her like that!!" she hissed.

"So the mute finally speaks..." Sango flushed.

Her eyes lost their fiery appearance, and softened, as Miroku, who just happened to come by, walked her away, so silently all the while. He was astonished, as well as delighted, that she was talking again. His Sango was talking again...!

"Sango..." he breathed softly, stroking her hair.

Sango blushed harder.

"They—they made me so mad, talking about her like that..." Sango cried softly.

"Her...? Her who...? Ohh...her-her...Yes, of course, Sango."

"Even though she's...well...the way she is now, I still care for her...She's still my best friend, if she ever comes around..."

"Yeah."

Sango's hands ran to her face as she sighed heavily.

"Oh, Kagome..."

Kagome Higurashi. It was her body that was corrupted by an evil demon named "Kojigoku". It was that incident that happened last week ago in the past, a year ago...Kagome Higurashi. She used to be that "sweet, young teenager". Now...she's a heartless bitch...

If you haven't seen it on my BIO, I'm changing my pen name AGAIN. InuYashaBishi334 is just waaaay too long (for me, that is) so from now on, at the end of the week--June 21, 2004--it's going to be Lady Sango. Would've made it Sango or Sango-chan, but they were taken, so it's just easier to make it Lady Sango.
