The setting sun lit the sky into burning flames as I watched every thing I had ever cared about be taken away from me. It looked like hells burning, never ending flames and all I wanted to do was run, run far away and forget about it all. Forget about my life, forget about everything that once was close to me but most of all forget about everything that once was. Soon those damn cops would show up and I would e locked up in some strange crazy hose for kids. 'No! I won't!' was all that ran through this little girls mind as she ran in search for a new life and a new home. It had been three years since that day and they had now found her. The rain was pouring down upon the young ones face. She was curled up within a corner in an alley way. 'How? How could things have ended up this way?' she though. There's nothing, I have nothing and I will never have it again. As I sat and weeped I felt a strong presence approach me. It was one of the things my parents had left me with, my gift. A gift and a jewel as well as my life. 'But why? why me and not them?' As the presence grew closer I could hear the owners faint steps. Slowly, softly and mysteriously it approached. I instantly lit up in a large ball of energy. I had learned that as long as I feared for m life this thing would protect me. When a shadow figure approached I got to my feet.

"Stay away!" I yelled as I began to glow brighter. However the so called threat just smiled at me and extended his hand out for mine. There was something about this man, something different yet calming about him. Finally after what appeared to be an eternity of a stand off in the rain the girl gave in. However the instant she let her guard down the man pulled her and stuffed her in the back of the car. It was over, so I thought. Ever since that day I had tried everything I could to get away from that crazy house, I tried to run, to hide, hell I even tried dying but it was no use. No matter what I did I just couldn't get out. In the orphanage I was alone and I felt as if I was in a bigger hell. Just to survive I had to fight, I had to hurt others just not to be touched my self. Finally after another 7 years of living in a crazy house of hell I was saved. The day was quiet and I was done with all my chores early so I decided to relax. I was actually pretty comfortable relaxing when I was once again called into the office. 'Now what did I do?' I thought as I put my journal down and headed for the office. Ever since my families death and my life in m so called hell I couldn't drop a pen. After all how else could a six year old cope with such memoirs though I was already 16 ears old. As I walked into the office I saw what appeared to be a couple. 'Here we go again.' I thought sarcastically.

"You called?" I asked rudely.

"Yes, this is Mr. and Mrs. Koga Kin. They're interested in you."

"Is that all?" I said. 'Ha!, that will chase them away for sure.' I thought only to be surprised by their words.

"Where do we sign." they asked. After that a large man came from behind and took my bags. 'Why would they wan me?' I thought as I got in the car and headed for my new home. Upon arriving Kagome stood in shock. 'this place is huge!' she thought. As she took in her new surroundings her new "parents" walked up t o her.

"You can take any room you want and you can start school tomorrow." Once being told this Kagome quickly snapped out of her daze.

"Huh? Oh, okay. whatever." said Kagome as she took the bags and headed for the house. All during which Koga and his wife stood and watched this girl.

"She's so broken." stated his wife Ayame.

"Yea but don't worry, she'll be fine."

"What about us?"

"So will we. Just give it some time." and with that they went inside. when they got there apparently Kagome had already chosen a room and unpacked. She was now walking around the house getting to know the place when she was spoken to.

"Looking for something?" asked Koga as Ayame started on dinner.

"Huh? Oh, no. Just looking around."

"Do you want to watch some TV?"

"Nope."

"Do you wanna talk?"

"Nope." for every question Koga threw at her she always said no or nope and it was starting to annoy him. That was until he asked her the one question she had never ben asked before since the time she entered the orphanage.

"What do you want for you're room?"

"No...huh?"

"Well, it is a little bland don't you thing? feel free to change whatever you want about it." came Ayame's voice as she stepped out of the kitchen. "Dinner is ready by the ay."

"Anything?"

"Yup." both Koga and Ayame answered with a smile on their faces. As dinner went by everything was quiet. Kagome sat and hoped to be left alone and amazedly she was. 'They're not talking? I wonder if they know I'm a miko?' she thought as an evil grin appeared on her face. 'How about I let them know then.' and with that Kagome focused her self and started to low. Ayame and Koga quickly looked up feeling such a strong aura.

"Kagome! Stop that please. We know." Kagome's smile dropped as a puzzled look came across her face.

"How?" she questioned as she was finally able to see.

"We're wolf yoki." stated Koga. Kagome took a closer look and slaw the truth. Koga had his long black hair, razor sharp claws and pointed eyes.

"Huh, should have seen that one coming." she said as she stood up. "I"m going to bed, after all I do have school tomorrow." Then as she reached the exit of the dinning room Kagome stopped and sighed before speaking again. "It's not a normal school is it?"

"No, it's a place where you'll fit in." assured Ayame, trying to get her to open up a bit. However upon hearing her words Kagome froze and spoke once more before she took her leave.

"I don't belong anywhere...the only place I did was taken away from me." and with that she headed up stairs and to her room. Though as soon as she was out of sight Kagome ran up and locked the door with tears brimming her eyes. 'How dar she! How dare she say that!' she thought angrily as she took her journal out and began to write. It was covered in a black leather case with silver vines engraved on it. She then opened it and began to write. Writing was her only way out, it was a place where she could lose her self and know that no matter what she was safe there. After two hours of writing and sulking Kagome finally got up and took a bath. She wanted to just be able to wake up in the morning, get dressed and head straight to school without having to worry about her "parents" to stop her. 'thinking of which I should probably apologize about earlier.' was she last though as she sank into bed and let sleep finally claim her.
