As time went on, the day of the party soon approached. Sesshomaru had yet to acknowledge her presence. Since the fight, he hadn't spoken yet alone glanced in Kagomes' direction. He seemed so aloof and distant, especially towards her. The only time he spoke to her was if it was relevant to class, if she was that lucky that is.

'DeJa Vu' she thought sadly.

~**Flash Back**~

"Hojo really, it's fine" a 9 year old Kagome sighed softly.

"I assure you Higurashi it is quite alright" he reassured.

"I just don't want you going out of your way for me"

"Well to me Higurashi you're worth it" gathering all the courage he had at the moment he took her hand with his as they continued to walk on. Both with flushed faces but neither trying to pull away.

"Well well well" a voice snickered from the shadows.

A figure emerged revealing a male with eerie red eyes, long black hair pulled back in a braid and an insignia on his forward. A demon.

"Yo brother come check this out" he called as another figure approached.

This one was less appealing to the eye than the first. He was heavy set with barely any hair, save the braid ending at his neck. He had black slits for eyes and his facial features remind them that of a reptile.

"I think it's puppy love der brother" he snickered darkly.

"What is it that you want" Hojo said pushing Kagome behind him defensively.

"Oooh a tough guy" Taka taunted.

"Hey let go of him you jerk" Kagome yelled at Koji.

"Feisty" Taka said approaching her "I like feisty" he growled gently caressing her cheek only to have it smacked away.

Kagome had no idea what got into, but she got this sudden rush inside of her as something unknown took control of her body.

"Keep your hands away from me you filth"

SMACK

"KAGOME" Hojo struggled to get free but to no avail.

"I like a bitch with back bone but sometimes they need a little help finding their place" Taka spat pulling her by the hair before throwing her on her hands and knees.

"You look even more appetizing down there. . . .bite me and die you bitch" he threatened.

"Brother what is happening"

Koji had a bad feeling. Something of pure evil and hate was in the air and smashing against his aura. That dark power was coming from that girl.

"K-Kagome" Hojo stuttered.

There was a frightening black aura radiating off of her as she got to her feet.

"WHAT THE HELL" Taka growled on edge.

There was nothing there. Her eyes. It was pure dark and black and held no emotion.

"YOU DARE TRY TO DEFILE THE MIKO OF LIFE AND DEATH" her voice was no longer hers. It was darker, manlier and filled with malice.

Her feet left the ground as her hair whipped all around.

"Oh shit"

All demons alike knew of such a Miko, but none has ever shown themselves so they were believed to be a myth. Just like demons, the Ultimate Miko ruler of all Mikos, were feared among humans. Some one with such great phenomenal power was looked upon as evil, no matter how pure the soul.

"YOU SHALL DIE FOR SHAMEFUL DEED"

Kagome woke up the next morning with a splitting headache. She had no idea what happened after the slap. She found herself in her room with an unconscious Hojo next to her.

"Kagome" she looked up and saw her mom coming in "Kagome dear we need to talk. . .there is something we have been putting off to tell you"

That was the faithful day she learned she was no ordinary Miko.

To her dismay, that was only the beginning. She found out first hand to how such power effected others.

The next day she was shunned by the very people she thought to be close. Hojo told of the activities from the previous night. People called her a monstrosity even though they were beyond petrified of her. Things were thrown at her and she received all forms of threats. Refusing to fight back, she was beaten, mauled, and tortured.

Her mother erased all memories of her family from that town before relocating. Her daughter became mute for the next 5 years.

~**End Flash Back**~

No one was there to witness her moment of weakness as a lone tear got away.
