Beyond What Eyes Can See
Summary: Kagome, a teenage girl from an abusive home struggles to keep up with life and stay invisible from everyone around. She succeeded until now, but sometimes people just refuse to give up. And sometimes those people are your only chance.
Prologue: The perfect life of before.
The sun was high up and not a single cloud dared to trespass the sky at a day such as this. Birds sung loudly, annoying the ever-vicious squirrels with the high-pitched sounds considered beautiful music. Green grass glistened over with the quickly drying dew.
The back door swung open and a cheery young girl ran out of the house in a white dress decorated with blooming yellow roses. She started running circles around the yard, happy just because. Then a young woman came out holding her slightly round stomach, and content smile on her face. She watched her daughter in fascination as a man stepped out from the house and wrapped his arms around the woman, smiling at her gasp of surprise and then turned his attention back to the overly happy child. To anyone who would look at the picture they made, they would say there was nothing that could ever break up this family that forever is bound with love to be kept together by fate itself. With as much hints pointing to that exact theory, that would have been a lie. There is a way to break anything, and sometimes, people can't prevent those ways from the destruction they are bound to bring.
/6 months later/
The father and daughter sat in the chairs of the overly white building, nervousness and fear lased in their scents. They waited patiently for the doctor to come back with the results, hoping for the best yet expecting the worst. A few minutes later, the doctor himself walked in the room, with a clipboard in hand, seeming to concentrate on the information on it. He lifted his head up and looked up at the father, letting his eyes move to the younger child with him, a sad look flashing upon his face of the news he had to deliver to the two.
"I would like to congratulate you, you have a new addition to your family, a baby boy."
The doctor could see the happiness shine through the eyes of the father, and wonder lace through the younger child at the comment. "But your wife…didn't make it." All happiness was instantly erased from the picture, instantly replaced by sorrow and anger.
It was on that day, that very day, the birthday of Kagome's younger brother, that everything changed. Everything of her home, her father, her life, shattered to pieces, to never be put back. It was then that the nightmare, she later figured her life to be, started. The nightmare you could never wake up from. On that very day, was when Kagome found out what hell truly was.
