New beginnings
Chapter one: broken
Kagome looked at her fourteen-year-old self in her full-length mirror inspecting her outfit. Kagome felt the need to look the best she could for school, she felt the need to impress them then maybe they wouldn't treat her the same maybe they would finally see her as a person not some garbage they could just step on without feeling an ounce of remorse.
Kagome gazed into the mirror looking at her dull blue eyes that once sparkled with happiness and hope for a better beginning so maybe in the end she could have her happy ending.
She was broken with what felt like nothing left. She had a caring family they just didn't understand though. she never talked about what went on in her life, her emotions. No one liked her except for her small family. What her family didn't know was that she was slowly dieing on the inside, she always tried to stay strong yet she felt so fragile. Her name was Kagome Higurashi
Kagome sighed as she smoothed her shirt, kagome was wearing a fitted pink shirt with sleeves that ended at her elbows and blue faded jeans with a sparkling butterfly necklace that she gotten from her father beforethe accident since then she had never taken it off
'Why don't people like me?' Kagome thought miserably as she ran a hand through her frizzy ebony hair that reached mid back 'Is it my looks?' Kagome thought she was on the chubby side 'Maybe it's my cloths?' kagome thought 'No…I have all the latest styles.'
Kagome glanced at the clock 8:10 the numbers looked menacingly at her as the glowed red. Kagome's mom was now at work and her little brother dropped off at school
"Looks like I'm going to be late to for school again." Kagome said miserably even though she usually is always late for school
Kagome exited her room and headed down the stairs and grabbed a lightweight jacket from the closet in her living room even though the weather was bitter cold outside. Her family wasn't rich and it was all they could afford right now
Kagome walked outside and locked the door to her home and felt the cold hit her full force. Kagome's teeth clattered together as she walked the few blocks to her Jr. High
Kagome watched the wind blow her hair wildly in her face causing her to stumble clumsily all the way to school
In matter of minutes Kagome was in front of her rather large school. 'I hate this place.' Kagome thought miserably. Kagome pushed one of the bright red heavy doors open and stepped inside "Maybe I should just go home." Kagome said allowed
The hallways were empty as kagome walked slowly down them deep in thought 'I'm surprised I haven't ran into that creep Inuyasha yet he's always been such a jer-'
Kagome must have ran into someone seeing as she was currently on the ground
"Well what do we have here." A voice said
Kagome looked up to see Naraku and Inuyasha smirking down at her
Kagome quickly climbed up to her feet and pushed past the two bumping into Inuyasha as she walked away
"Where do you think you're going?" Naraku asked kagome as he roughly grabbed her by the elbow and held on tightly bruising her delicate skin
"Let go!" Kagome screamed mustering her courage
"Not until you apologize to my friend her for running into him." Naraku said still smirking
Kagome glared up at the two half demons "sorry." Kagome said just above a whisper as she tried to wrench her arm free of Naraku's hold
"I don't think sorry is good enough anymore." Inuyasha said
Kagome quickly glanced around the halls looking for someone anyone to help her; all she spotted was a kid at his locker putting books away
"Nice necklace." Naraku said eyeing the dainty piece of jewelry
"Must be expensive." Inuyasha commented as he stared coldly into kagome's eyes
"Where did you get something so expensive when you're so poor?" Naraku asked as he watched hurt flash through kagome's eyes
Life hasn't been easy for her family since her dad died in fact it has been horrible since her mom worked multiple jobs to barely support her family
Kagome struggled against Naraku's hold only to find her self pushed into a nearby locker making her head collide with the hard piece of metal with a loud bang
Kagome closed her eyes from the pain before opening them once again this time the student at his locker turned around making kagome realize that it was Bankotsu a tough kid that was in her grade that had a select group of about six friends. Bankotsu wasn't friendly to anyone out side of his circle of friends and hated basically everyone especially Inuyasha
Bankotsu just stood there before turning back to his locker and continued with whatever it was he was doing
"I tell you what, I'm in a good mood today so I will let you go if you hand over that necklace." Naraku said
Kagome wasn't going to dare let her only gift from her father get stolen and sold for money to buy drugs for that creep Naraku
"Never." Kagome spat as she ripped Naraku's arms off of her body
"That's it!" Inuyasha shouted as he yanked the necklace off of kagome's neck in turn cutting her neck slightly making her whimper
Kagome noticed that kid Bankotsu now shut his locker and was the watching the commotion 'Why won't he help me?' Kagome thought sadly
"Naraku catch." Inuyasha shouted as he threw the necklace over her head to Naraku
Naraku caught the piece of jewelry and looked at the open mouthed kagome
"I have a better idea instead of selling this crap." Naraku said
Naraku then closed his hand tightly around the necklace and squeezed with all his strength shattering the butterfly into multiple pieces and letting them drop to the floor with multiple clanks
Kagome couldn't believe what they had just done, she couldn't think straight so she closed her eyes tightly
"What are you going to cry now?" Inuyasha asked laughing
"Shut up." Kagome said strongly but barely audible with her eyes still tightly shut
"What was that?" Naraku asked chuckling
"Shut up!" Kagome screamed opening her eyes to revile two completely black eyes
Kagome felt weird and tingly on the inside and strangely…powerful?
"What the..." Inuyasha mumbled looking into kagome's eyes
Kagome's hair begun to lift and dance beautifully yet wild around her face and a light blue glow surrounded her
"She's...a…a miko!" Naraku said with shock because there was very few mikos that existed today.
Bankotsu; still off in the distance lifted an eyebrow in intrigue watching the scene unfold
"Scared?" Kagome asked as her black eyes looked un-emotionally into Naraku's eyes
"No." Naraku said confidently
"Good." Kagome said as she lifted her hands open palmed directly in front as little sparks of blue shot from her palms as she stared straight at Naraku
Kagome felt strangely confident as she expertly moved her hands in different patterns, within moments Naraku was thrown into a row of lockers from kagome's sheer power
"Bitch." Naraku wheezed out
Inuyasha jumped into the air; shooting razor like beams from his claws
Kagome dodged the attack and lifted Inuyasha into the air, but something wasn't right Inuyasha was choking because he was being lifted by his neck
'Oh no…I can't stop!' Kagome thought worriedly as she tried to gain control of her powers that were now un-leashed
Inuyasha was dropped to the ground from fifteen feet in the air making him scream in agony and clutch his arm from landing on it
Kagome collapsed from all the strength she used but was still conscious her eyes had also turned back but was now an icy blue color
Kagome looked at the collapsed Inuyasha with an obviously broken arm, Kagome was horrified that she did that; she was always a peaceful person
Kagome was to busy staring at Inuyasha to notice Naraku approaching her from the side
"I swear I am going to kill you." Naraku said rage fully in set
And then in that very second Kagome felt the most horrible pain ever. Naraku was kicking her back mercilessly and the pain felt almost electric. Kagome felt so much pain from Naraku kicking her with his in-human strength that she couldn't hold on any longer so she passed out
Beep
Beep
Beep
Kagome heard the unbearable never-ending sound and rose from her quite slumber, she slowly opened her eyes and was staring at a white wall
Kagome felt her back ache as she sat up in the hospital bed 'Just the place I wanna be.' Kagome thought sarcastically
"I hate hospitals." Kagome said with obvious distaste as she fingered the IVs attached to her arms
"Don't we all." A calm sounding voice said
Kagome looked to her right and saw Bankotsu slouched in a hospital chair looking out the one window that occupied the small gloomy room. Kagome admired his beauty, Bankotsu had clear blue eyes and black hair that went to the small of his back and was in a braid, he was also wearing tight black pants and a plain blue t-shirt
"What are you doing here?" Kagome asked suspiciously
Bankotsu turned his gaze away from the window and looked straight at Kagome
"Is that anyway to treat the guy that saved your life?" Bankotsu asked
"Whatever." Kagome said since people usually didn't talk to her and she didn't think this time would be any different
Kagome pulled the IVs from her arm accidentally ripping her skin and making her take a sharp intake of breath
Kagome got off of the bed hospital gown and all. Kagome found her clothes on a small dresser to the left of her and picked them up and headed to the bathroom to change
Moments later when Kagome exited there was a tall menacing looking police officer talking to Bankotsu about something
The officer noticed kagome walk out of the bathroom and quit talking, then spoke again but to her this time
"Ms. Higurashi I need to speak with you." The young looking officer said
"Shoot." Kagome said 'there is no way this day can get worse' Kagome thought
"You might want to talk with me in private." The man said whilst eyeing Bankotsu
"I really don't care." Kagome said obviously annoyed
"Fine then, a Mr. Takahashi is pressing charges against you for breaking his arm in three places and fracturing his leg." The officer said while scanning a police report on his clipboard
"Of course." Kagome said shaking her head back and forth
"Ma'am I'm going to need you to come with me to a juvenile detention center wear you will be held until your court case which will be in a few days." The officer said
Kagome groaned once she saw the police officer pull out a set of handcuffs and then noticed that Bankotsu was gone
"Is that really necessary?" Kagome asked
The cop just slapped them on her wrists and escorted her to his police car
'Everyone's staring…' Kagome thought miserably as she watched the hospital staff look at her disgustedly
Kagome felt like she wanted to crawl in a hole and just die people were judging her. They always judged her.
"Damn." Kagome cursed to herself as she tripped over her own two feet on her way to an empty table where her mom was looking worriedly at her, but hey could you blame her after all she did have handcuffs an her feet to keep her from running away during visiting hours
The air in the cafeteria smelt of vomit, which was probably the food they served there. 'At least I will lose weight…' Kagome thought to herself as she looked at her distraught mother across the table
"Kagome hunny, I know this isn't your fault." Mrs. H said
"Then why didn't that judge believe me?" Kagome asked sadly
"Kagome, Inuyasha had a broken arm which was enough to keep you in hear for a year." Mrs. H said now crying silently
A year that's how long she has been in this horrible place, a place wear everyone is treated like shit and someone is looking for a reason to pound your face in
"At least this is my last day." Kagome said putting on a weak smile
"Dear, that's wonderful news except for what I am about to tell you unfortunately isn't." Mrs. H said
"What is it mom?" Kagome asked as she stared into her mothers' sad brown eyes
"We lost the house." Mrs. H said looking away shamefully
"Oh no." Kagome said with wide eyes
"Were moving to New York in America." Mrs. H said now looking her daughter in the eye
"Why can't we stay in Japan?" Kagome asked with small tears forming in her eyes
"Its to expensive dear, I'm so sorry." Mrs. H said
"It's okay mom, I know you didn't make this happen on purpose." Kagome said after she laid her hand on top of her mothers in a comforting gesture
"I'm so glad you understand." Mrs. H said with a small smile
"Will we ever come back?" Kagome asked shakily
"Maybe, if I got a good paying job then yes." Mrs. H answered
"Okay mom." Kagome said
'I can't believe I'm leaving.' Kagome thought
Later that day kagome was released from the detention center after serving her one-year sentence and by the next week she was gone and on her way to America. Kagome didn't tell anyone she was moving they probably wouldn't even care and if they did they would be happy because no one liked Kagome Higurashi
