I was on my army cot with a long stab wound. And on top of that I was coughing up blood. The bandage was wrapped around my stomach, and I had to change the bandage now. I got up and went to the corner where I hid my first aid kit. I opened it and took out a long white bandage with some cream. When I took off the bandage there was pus on it. I was infected. I pinched down the stab wound it hurted so badly and I wiped the pus off until I saw blood. I put cream on it and wrapped the bandage around my torso.

''Where is Yura when I need her.'' I whispered

''Mistress''

I looked around I didn't see Yura there.

''Look at your seal Mistress''

As soon as I looked at my seal I saw a red blur come out. There stood Yura. She got into her big form and curled up.

''It's Ok you could sleep against me''

I went against Yura and slept. She was warm and so kind I wished that somebody could let me sleep against them like mother did when I was 3. I started to cry. I felt Yura licking me in a comforting way. The basement door opened and I saw mothers angry face.

''It, get up stairs and do these dishes now before I stab you again.'' Mother shouted

She was drunk so to her Yura looked like a big red blanket , I walked up stairs I looked back at Yura with a small smile. I was going to get out of this house someday. I was going to run away somewhere and that was a promise to myself. I got to the sink and started to do the dishes. But the cabinet was so far above my head. And if I reached all the way up there my wound would open. Mother had already walked out of the kitchen. I could hear her footsteps go up stairs. As I reached to put the dishes into the cabinet I fell to the floor and I saw blood drip to the floor. I could smell my dad in the living room. I crawled on my knees to the living room.

''Dad mother stabbed me.'' I said

'' Leave get out go do your chores you don't want your mother to know about this?!'' Father shouted

I hung my head down in shame. What happened to the man who helped get through this and said he was going to take me away from this mad house so me and him could be a family. So he could find a wife who didn't abuse me and somebody he didn't fight with. What happened.

''I'll tell you what go in the kitchen and I will put the dishes away. And I would get you a new shirt. I'm going to take you away from this house me and you .'' Dad whispered

I had faith. I crawled back to the kitchen and dad put away the dishes for me. And I did my morning chores. Dad came down stairs with a balck shirt and some tan shorts form me. I Knew I would have to pin those shorts up because they were to big. But dad gave me a belt and I was off. This time mother had packed me a bento and put $3 for something else. I think mother was done with her games I hopes she was. I walked into the classroom, and Naruto waved at me. I sat down next to him but I felt my wound open I would have to wait till lunch time.

''Kagome - chan you smell that, it smells like blood.'' Naruto whispered

I got scared because I knew it was coming from me. I didn't notice the smirk Sakura had on her face. As I was panicking I felt someone grab me by the arm. I looked and saw Sakura.

''Yeah ,I smell it too.'' Sakura said

As soon as she said that she lifted up my shirt. The whole class saw the bloody bandage that was wrapped around my torso.

''What happened here?'' Sakura said

''I got into a fight.'' I said

''No you didn't I saw your mother stab you, you can't keep anything from me you know because I am the reason why you get hurt. I am the one that makes you get starved, be at the brink of death after beatings and come into school bruises. And you know what Kagome you are going to be free from that anyway because teme children should die.'' Sakura said

I felt myself get punched in the stomach and blood poured out of my mouth and my nose. I fell on my knees in my own blood. I got it now the reason why mother did this was because she knew that Sakura was going to rat her out so if they came I could say she treated me like an queen. I wasn't going to give up. I got up. I wiped the blood off my nose.

''You might be the reason Sakura but I am going to stay strong and be the best I can be. I am going to be an Anbu and show all you, that I am better than you. But I have to do something first.'' I said

''I am not going to let you push me around any more I am going to fight back. I forgive you but don't expect us to be friends.'' I said

I walked up to Sakura she was pissing her pants. I punched her in the stomach and she coughed up blood. And I took out my kunai and stabbed her in the leg.

'' Now you know how it feels.'' I whispered before I passed out
