A young boy with raven black hair and deep violet eyes sat at his computer. "Dam* why does my computer always have to freeze?" He looked down at his faithful, strong dog sitting at his feet. The dog looked up with pleading eyes "Oh all right boy.you always need to go out don't you?" with that said he put on his jacket, grabbed a leash, and walked out the door.

*********

"MOM!" a young girl with deep brown eyes and raven black hair screamed

" The answer is 'NO' Kagome!"

" But mom! You always tell me that I need to get outside! And I need to learn on my own! And go out with my friends!"

" Kagome! You have to help your brother and grandfather with the shrine!"

"but.."

"NO!"

Kagome ran out the door with tears in her eyes. It wasn't fair to her and she was fuming with the thought of injustice in her mind. She was around the age of nineteen and still living with her family because they needed her help with the shrine that was on their property. She had wanted to go for so long now. Get out on her own and start her own life. Every time her mom had refused that freedom and it just seemed to be getting worse " I'm nineteen, and, according to my family, going on four" she mumbled. More tears came to her eyes and she clenched her fists almost drawing blood because of her nails. Her footfalls slowed to a minimal crawl. She continued to walk regretfully toward the shrine when her eyes darted up. "Wait.I'm outside.. And alone.. I can run and be free like I wanted to.." she stopped in deep thought "Oh NO! Someone's coming! It's now or never!" with that last thought she darted. She ran as fast as she could as far away from the shrine as she could get. ********

The boy was still out with his dog.

(sigh) "come on boy! You've been leading me on for.." He looked down at his wrist to find his usual watch missing " Dam* well I don't know but it has been a while now!" The dog just turned to look up at his master and gave out a loud bark. The boy rolled his eyes "Oh all right lets go.."

*******

Kagome finally stopped to catch her breath. " Man.. I really need to get my money and food from the house. well I guess I can go back later and sneak in my room and. wait won't they be awake for a while. oh well I'll try really late maybe I will succeed." with that thought she turned around to slowly walk back to her house. She was well ware of the fact that her family would be up for a long time with their usual worry for her. " I'm glad they worry about me but sometimes. it's just too much" She continued to walk on.

(note: okay people it is about an hour after Kagome decided to turn back.. I know a long time but it had to be done .) ********

Kagome was almost to her home now when she saw a bright glow coming from the direction of her home. "What's that!?" she thought panicked. Kagome suddenly got a bad feeling and began running toward her house with speed she didn't even know she had. Kagome finally topped the steep hill that led to her house just to have her deepest fear be confirmed. "NO!" she creamed when she saw both her home and shrine covered in hot licking flames. She ran toward the house calling out her family's names.

"Mama! Sota! Grandpa! Are you okay!?" she was still running trying to get closer to the burning building. She yelped as she felt herself trip and painfully twist her ankle beneath her. Tears began to sting at her eyes as she got up and continued to run. Soon she couldn't run anymore and she stopped in front of the door and knew there was no point trying to get inside. The door was covered in flames and even if she had kicked it down it was risking a back draft and the whole house collapsing. She backed away and fell to the floor crying endlessly. Her body was shaking with sobs as she held her head in her hands not able to think strait. " I love you!" she yelled more tears pouring out. " I loved them so much and the last time I saw them I was in a fight with them" her body just shook harder with that thought.

" I loved you so much!" she yelled once again. For the sake of her own family she pulled her cell phone out and called the fire department. She was just about to get up and leave when she saw something furry running toward her. "Buyo!" she exclaimed. " Oh, Buyo at least you survived.you can keep me from going insane" she sobbed. With that said she picked Buyo up held him in her arms and ran in a blind fury unable to turn back knowing it would hurt her too much. "Why me!?" she yelled out not knowing where she was going. Finally, she collapsed in a dark alleyway and cried her heart out as Buyo tried fruitlessly to cheer her up with prods and snuggles. She realized it was no use trying to help herself as she lay down and tried to calm herself. She suddenly felt a searing pain in her ankle as she remembered how she had fallen before.

************

The dog suddenly struck in a pointing position. "huh? What is it boy?" The young boy turned the corner to hear gentle sobs coming from the next alleyway up. He gently padded up to the corner and looked around it to see a girl and her cat. " what's this? She looks like a 'good girl' why would she be out this late at night.and why is she crying.. Maybe I should help her out. she has to be cold. Maybe.maybe I should wait until she settles down a little.I don't want to startle her.." the boy stood there staring in thought knowing what to do. He hated it when girls cried. He finally broke out of his trance to find she had settled down. He gently walked up to the girl and carefully stroked her face.

"hey.are you all right?" the girl opened her eyes to find deep purple once staring back at her. She leapt up and struggled to crawl away putting her arms above her head. "Oh please don't hurt me!" she wailed "Hey, hey, hey! It's all right I won't hurt you! I wanted to help you.what is someone like you doing out in the middle of the night like this huh?" "What's your name?" she asked stubbornly.

" hmmm? My name is Inuyasha. And if you don't mind me asking what is yours?" "My-My name Kagome.." " Really, I promise I won't hurt you..please trust me." " I won't trust you until you tell me why you are out so late." He smiled at that. "Well you see.. My dog here, Taylor, he has this thing about always having to go out for walks, and it always seems to be at night too. I don't know what his deal is there. He wanted me to take him out and there was no use fighting him because when it's something like that he won't stop barking. And, it pi**es off the neighbors and not to mention hurts my ears. I didn't intend to be out this long but he caught the scent of either you or your cat and kept leading me toward you. I had nothing better to do so I just followed especially because he probably wouldn't leave me a lone all night if I ignored his request." She looked up at him and nodded.

" I trust you.but please don't hurt me." "Don't' worry I won't" he said as he picked up the girl. "Hey what are you doing!?" she yelled blushing like mad. "What? You didn't think I was going to leave you there now did you? You would probably freeze to death anyway." She was wearing her normal school uniform not having time to change before. She nodded dumbly as shivered in his arms with gentle snow falling around them. Kagome clutched to Inuyasha's coat desperately trying to get some of his body warmth.

He slid his hand through the hole in the dogs leash and walked on.

(note: the dog knew better than to chase the cat so he stayed at Inuyasha's side the whole time)

" Hey, Kagome, just go to sleep you must be exhausted we'll figure it out tomorrow." With that she nodded and let her eyes close somehow comforted in the strong arms of a stranger. "aw sh*t!" he mumbled. He had forgotten the cat. He turned around to be greeted by a loud meow. " oh, good you followed! Hey do you think you could like balance on my shoulder or something?" as if the cat understood he jumped onto his shoulders as he bent down. He always did have a way with animals.... He gently looked down into Kagome slumbering face and smiled as he continued to walk down the dark streets of Tokyo with the snow slowly falling.



Well there it is! Please review and be brutally honest! Oh and as you noticed I blanked out all the cuss words I just can't cuss in stories no questions asked I just can't but I do think it would be totally OOC ( out of character) to have him be a 'clean' speaker. Sorry it was so short it just makes it easier for me to update it more madness to come! MUWAHAHAHAAAA! See you tomorrow! [pic]
