When school ended that day, Kagome, Sango, Koga, and Tank (Shippo, Blaze, Rin, and Craze couldn't make it for different reasons) went to Koga's house. His parents had left him a house and moved to Chicago last year, so it was the usual hangout place for the group. They all went into the living room and crashed on a couch or chair.
"So what were you and the dog fighting about anyway?" Sango asked.
"During chemistry we were working on this acid shit, and I mixed everything right but something went wrong and the whole thing turned black and started bubbling. Anyway I failed the lesson and I couldn't figure out what happened. But at lunch when InuYasha and his crew walked by I heard him laughing about how he put backing soda in my beaker. So we started going at it." Koga told them.
"Well you guys would still be fighting if Kagome hadn't jumped in." Sango stated.
"True. It's hard to tell who's stronger, when it comes to you two." Tank added.
"Speaking of Kagome, how's your cheek feeling?" Koga turned to Kagome.
"Fine." She shrugged. "It's not like I got my arm torn off, I was more shocked then anything else."
"I'm going to kill him." Tank said darkly.
"I'm with you. He can't just get away with this shit." Koga added in.
"Oh come on you guys. We all know InuYasha's an ass, but we also know he didn't hurt Kagome on purpose." Sango didn't want them to start more shit, it would just make thing worse for all of them.
"He's a dog demon, he could smell when Kagome was coming." Tank said
"I hate to say it, but I think she's right." Koga sighed. "There were a lot of people there, a lot of different smells and when a demons adrenaline is running, it gets hard to distinguish one smell from another." but Koga wasn't done. "But still he saw Kagome there when she walked in front of me, he was in the middle of a swing, so he should learn to control his strength more, so he can stop it when he needs to. He's to rash and that's what I can't forgive."
"So you're going to fight him again?" Sango snapped.
"There's other ways to get to a person without fighting them." Tank sneered.
"Exactly." Koga smiled.
"What are you going to do?" Kagome finally spoke.
Koga looked at Tank. "Don't know yet.
"Grrr whatever. I don't want to talk about this drama anymore." Sango said in frustration.
"Neither do I." Kagome said quietly.
"Alright. What shall we do?" Koga leaned back
"Lets put on some music and just relax for awhile." Tank said also leaning back.
So Kagome stood up and lit some candles, turned off the lights, and shut the black curtains so the only light was coming from the candles. Then she walked over to the stereo and pushed play on the cd player. Funeral for a Friend started playing. They all laid back and just let the music wash over them. Forgetting everything but the feel of the room. Letting the candle light cascade them into another world. A world where they could just be free of everything. This was a ritual of there's, music mixed with candle like had a way of soothing them.
When it started getting dark, everyone went home. Kagome walked into her house and went in the kitchen, where she knew her mom was cooking dinner. "I'm home."
Looking up her mother said, "Alright dear. Dinner will be ready in…My God Kagome! What happened to your face?" Her mother rushed over to her and turned her face to the side. "Who did this."
"Mom it's nothing." She said pushing her mothers hand away. But she didn't listen.
"Honey come in here!" she called to her husband.
"Yes dear?" Her father asked as he entered the kitchen.
"Look at your daughters face."
He walked over and saw Kagome's cheek. "What in the world happened to you?"
"Nothing! It was an accident." Kagome tried to push past her parents but her dad blocked her way.
"KIKYO GET DOWN HERE!" her father yelled.
Kikyo came into the kitchen as well. "What Dad?"
"Do you know what happened to Kagome's face?" her mother asked.
Kikyo looked over at Kagome with a worried look. If her parents knew that InuYasha did that to Kagome she would probably never get to hangout with him again. Her parents could be way to protective sometimes. Kikyo made eye contact with Kagome. Kagome shook her head shortly, sending a message to her sister. Kikyo understood. "No Mom I don't know what happened."
Their parents looked at each other then sighed. "Well alright, if it's really nothing to worry about, you better go up stairs and do your homework before dinner." Their mother told them.
They both walked up stares in silence. When they both reached the top of the stairs Kikyo turned to Kagome. "Thanks for that."
"I didn't do it for you. If they knew Koga was involved too I would have the same problem you have. You know they already don't trust him. If they knew he was fighting I wouldn't be able to see him." Kagome turned her back on her sister.
"Do you always think of yourself?" Kikyo asked.
"Nope. I just don't think about you."
"Good. I wouldn't want you to get jealous."
"And what would I get jealous of? The fact that you're attached at the hip to the Inu mutt? No thanks, I rather cut out my eyes."
"Whatever." Kikyo said as she closed her door."
She thinks too much of herself. Stupid bitch. Kagome thought as she too walked into her room.
The next day at school was Friday, thank God. But the day went by really slow, as all Fridays seem to do. When the day finally did end, Kagome was relieved. When she walked out to her car, she saw that once again Kikyo was standing by her car. "What?" She asked as she put her keys in her door.
"Tell your friends not to do whatever they plan on doing to InuYasha." Kikyo crossed her arms.
"What are you talking about?" Kagome asked lamely as she sat in her car.
"I'm not dumb Kagome, so don't act like I am."
"Could've fooled me." Kagome mumbled.
"I know they won't just except that he didn't do it on purpose. Their going to try to get him back. I know they are." Kikyo went on, ignoring Kagome's comment.
"Well I just don't know what you are talking about." Kagome said, not bothering to make herself sound truthful.
Kikyo just shook her head and walked away.
Dear friends of this academy
Oh, Romeo is bleeding to death..
To see a friend bleed to death
What for, some kind of metaphor
That I can't see..
So I'll drink until I see it.
This sky will make me sick,
So I'll give up on you,
I'll give up on this.
This sky will make me sick,
So I'll give up on this,
I'll give up on you.
Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute..
And bleed this skyline dry
Your history is mine.
So you want to hold me up and bring me down?
Yes, you want to hold me up and break me down
I don't care for your sweet scent
Or the way you want me more than I want you.
I don't care for your sweet scent
Or the way you want me more than I want you.
Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute..
And bleed this skyline dry
Your history is mine.
Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute..
And bleed this skyline dry
Your history is mine.
It's all mine.. it's all mine.. it's all mine...
Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute..
And bleed this skyline dry
Your history is mine.
Archers in your arches,
Raise your fingers for one last salute..
And bleed this skyline dry
Your history is mine.
