Chapter 2

I Need You

Kagome awoke with her head pounding. It was a long night. She heard the girl's screams as they were taken off by some men. The man wouldn't let them have her today. She sighed in relief. She wondered how her brother was doing… She jolted up when she heard the door open. Souta came in.

"Arin told me to clean this room."

"Arin?"

"That's the man's name Kagome…he told me I had to come sweep, then clean the toilets, then just go clean the sheets where your blonde friend was in. "I'm so sorry Kagome." Kagome ran towards him and grabbed his face. "Listen to me Souta, you aren't under contract, you can leave!"

"But sis! I don't want to leave you!" Souta hugged his sister tightly around the waist, tears coming out of his eyes.

"Souta, you need to go back down the well and get Inuyasha. I don't care how mad I was at him, you need to get him. He's the only one that can help me and these girls. Okay? Go tonight at dusk! Do you underst-"

"SOUTA! What are you doing talking to that slut?" Arin yelled!

"She is not a slut! She happens to be my sister! And I love her dearly!"

"Get back to work! And don't ever talk to her again. Or you will see she won't be treated too well."

Souta went to the back of the room and started cleaning it up, and gloomy look upon his face. He picked up a used condom. He screamed, and threw it down. Kagome didn't even look. She didn't want to risk either of them getting hurt. She went back to "napping" on her and her friend's mattress.

Later that evening…

Kagome knew that dusk was long ago. She hoped Souta was doing alright. It was a dangerous place. And she had a feeling that even though Souta wasn't under a contract that Arin would still try and keep him here. She hoped and prayed with all of her heart that Souta made it out alive.

All of the sudden she heard a gunshot, and yells. She ran to the door, and tried to open it. Of course, it was locked. As were all the windows. She sat down and sobbed. The blonde girl, whose named turned out to be Iri, comforted her, saying everything was okay. Arin would never kill a kid.

Kagome went back to sleep on her mattress, hoping for the best.

Souta's POV

Souta ran as fast as he could out his bedroom door, and down the long hall. He heard someone running after him by the time he was frantically unlocking the front door. He heard stumbling and cussing. It sounded like Arin, but Souta didn't dare look back. He was determined to get to the well. He still heard the man behind him as he ran into the well house, and shut the door, and quickly locked it. The man started banging on the door, swearing at him.

Souta quickly opened the cover of the well, and jumped into it. Nothing happened. Why didn't anything happen?! He started frantically trying to come up with ideas. Kagome could always do it because she had jewel shards. He knew she had hid a couple up above in a small corner. He climbed up the ladder, and grabbed at the jar of jewel s, jumping back into the well.

The blue light engulfed his small body, his mile glowing against it. In less than a minute, he landed on the other side of the well. He looked up to see the clear blue sky. He tried his best to climb out, but could not succeed.

"INUYASHA!!!" Souta knew that Inuyasha could hear him. He just wondered if the dumb dog was smart enough to come get him.

Inuyasha's POV

"INUYASHA!!!" Inuyasha snapped his head in the direction of the well, hearing his name. He must be hearing things he thought. It sounded like Souta's voice. Boy, he must miss Kagome deeply. He sat in the tree, still starring at a picture of her, that she gave to him before she left.

"Kagome…"he whispered. He ran his finger across her cheek. A tear ran from his eye, falling on his legs. He shook his head.

"INUYASHAAA!!!" He heard it again…he decided he better go check it out. At least that way it'll stop. He hopped out of the tree, stuffing the picture of Kagome into his pocket. He sprinted towards the well, and looked around, seeing no one, and nothing.

"Inuyasha!" He heard it from the well. He leaned over it, peering down he saw Kagome's little brother.

"Souta? Is that you?"

"INUYASHA! I need you to come with me right now!"

"No way brat! Kagome doesn't want to see me, so why should I?"

"She needs your help. A guy lured her into a hidden whore house and made her sign a contract. She can't get out. The door is constantly locked, as are the windows. The only time they're let out is if a man comes to…well…do business with them."

"I don't believe you. She doesn't need my help. You're just playing a trick."

"Inuyasha…please. She begged me to escape, which endangered my own life to come here. I came for her because she needed you. She's about to become known as a slut, while she's carrying your children."

"She's still carrying them? But she said…"

"We all know what she said, but do you think Kagome would ever go through with something like that? No. Now please, come on."

Inuyasha turned his head debating if the brat was telling the truth or not. He probably was, why would he lie about this?

"Okay, brat. Let's see if you're telling the truth." Souta smiled as Inuyasha jumped down the well, and they went through the blue light back to the present time.
