Fawks cried out as she was flung against the railing, she clung to it, glaring up at Akiko. There were others as well, boys and girls, glaring at her and laughing.

"Akiko..."

"Don't give me that look! Acting all innocent when you're nothing but a little slut!" Akiko snapped.

"What are you talking about?! I don't understand!"

"No use playin' dumb!" One of the girls taunted.

"We already know!"

"At least she's smart! Sleeping with a guy who has money"

They all snicked and laughed.

"We know all about you and Taiyo-san..." Akiko went on.

"...Sesshy-oto-san...? What do you mean?"

"Aki-chan says he called out your name in his sleep, care to explain that?" one of the girls began.

Fawks blushed, "...I...don't know..."

"Liar!" Akiko shouted, yanking her hair.

"Ow! Akiko-chan! Why are you doing this?! I thought we were friends..."

"Then you really are stupid! I only hung out with you to get closer to Taiyo-san!"

Fawks' eyes widened, '...Sessho-maru...?!'

"Ya know, Fawks-chan...looking back on how you shot all of us down...it all makes sense" On of the boys began.

"...Never thought you were that shallow"

"...No way in hell I'd date a slut like you!"

The group laughed even louder.

"...Who's the slut...?"

Fawks rose to her feet, shoving Akiko's hand away.

"...or did you forget to tell them...that you tried to take advantage of my oto-san while he was sleeping...?"

"Wha...?"

"...'s that true, Akiko-san?"

"...Of course she's lying!!" Akiko blushed.

"...I don't care if you beleive me or not...But if you guys want a fight...I'll give it to ya!" Fawks grinned wickedly.


"Oi, have you two seen, Fawks-chan?" Kagome asked as the final bell rang.

"Na-uh..."

"She went to the bathroom first period and never came back. We thought she just went to the nurse..." Junko shrugged.

"...Really? I was supposed to give her a ride home..."

"Oh Higaurashi-san! I saw Fawks-chan head up to the roof with Akiko-chan and some other girls..."

"The roof?!" Kagome began, terror creeping up her spine.

"Yeah, I thought they were headin up there for a smoke..."

"Idiot! Fawks doesn't smoke!" Junko scolded.


The sunlight was like a dagger in her brain. Fawks blinked trying to clear her vision, her head hurt and her knuckles throbbed.

"...What happened...ugh! What did those bastards do to me...?"

When her vision finally cleared, she was in shock at what she found. The said 'bastards' lay around her in a heap, all unconscious, groaning or twitching occasionally.

"Oh my god!" Fawks gasped. '...did...I do this...?'

She tried to think back but was only met with pain corsing through her brain. Fawks looked down at her hands, they were covered in blood, not all of it her own.

"Fawks-chan!" Kagome cried throwing open the door, "...my god...!"

"...Ka...Kagome-one-san..."

"...Did you...do this...?!" she gasped.

"...I don't know! I...Akiko and those girls brought me here...and...she and the others were...going to beat me up...They said nasty things about me and Sesshy-oto-san....I blacked out after that...." Fawks held herself, shaking all over. Kagome gazed at her seriously, '...no...this Fawks couldn't have done this...it must have been the other Fawks...the girl Sessho-maru tried to keep her from becoming...'
