Chapter two: You remind me of someone
Inuyasha arrived at the palace of the Higurashi kingdom. He stepped out of the carriage and began walking toward the palace doors. He spotted another prince with black hair put in a ponytail. 'That must be my opponent' he thought to himself. Opponent or no opponent Inuyasha wasn't really interested in getting married to some princess anyways. He had been hurt before what makes them think that he could open up his heart to love again? He can remember it so clearly. The pain that struck his heart when his one true love kikyo left him for someone else.
Kikyo and Inuyasha were deeply in love or so he thought. However the love didn't seem to be strong enough for she went after prince Naraku who was a full demon and not a hanyou like himself. Naraku was more powerful then Inuyasha that must be why she left him. Sometimes he wished he were a full demon so all the troubles and unfairness bestowed upon him can be taken away. But as much as he wished for it to come true it wouldn't. Inuyasha could remember it. Remember the day that he caught her with Naraku. A part of him grew cold and died. It was all her doing.

Flashback
--------------------
Inuyasha walked out to the pond far away from the palace. It was there meeting place. His and Kikyo's he sat down on the grass looked at the glistening water of the pond. He heard footsteps approaching. Thinking it was Kikyo he decided to surprise her by hiding in the tree. He climbed onto the tree and waited patiently.
A figure approached, it was Kikyo all right. When Inuyasha saw this he was about to climb down when he saw a male demon come up behind her. The demon hugged her from behind and she didn't seem to struggle but merely giggled and acted like she enjoyed this.
Then the demon went too far. He lifted his hands up to her face and drew her near him. Then there lips met. Inuyasha could feel his anger build up inside of him and he was about to explode. He jumped down from the tree and walked up to the unsuspecting couple.
"Kikyo what is the meaning of this?" Inuyasha demanded an explanation. His voice was cold with anger.
"Who are you and what do you want with my fiancée?" the demon asked. Standing protectively in front of Kikyo.
"Fiancée is that true Kikyo?" Inuyasha was seething with anger.
"Kikyo who is this man? Do you know hi?" Naraku asked.
Then all hell broke loose. Inuyasha felt like Kikyo had stabbed him in the heart with an arrow when he heard her next response.
"I've never seen this man before in my life. I don't know what you are talking about and who you are now will you please leave us alone." She said inching closer into Naraku's embrace.
Inuyasha could feel his legs slowly run. His movements were swift and in seconds he was gone. Away from Naraku, away from Kikyo…forever. He would never forget today. Never. Being betrayed does that to you.

End Flashback
--------------------
Sighing deeply Inuyasha walked into the palace. The grand doors were massive as they opened up to let him in. It seems that other prince had already gone inside while he stood pondering to himself. A servant led him to the main room where the king and queen sat.
"Ah you have finally arrived prince Inuyasha we were waiting for you." The Queen said as she looked directly at the silver hair prince.
"Prince Inuyasha this is prince Kouga. You two will be staying at the palace for a month to see which one between you two my daughter chooses to wed." The king spoke up.
"Let me bring out my daughter." Said the queen.
At that moment a tiny fox demon scurried to the middle of the room. "I'm pleased to present to you princess Kagome." Then he scurried back out.
A beautiful princess entered the room wearing a white dress that fitted her curves it had thin straps and a low cut neck. Her dress reached the ground and the train of her dress trailed in back of her as she walked. Her black hair was let down flowing to the middle of her back. A thin peace of gold chain with a red ruby was hanging across her forehead. But the most exquisite site to behold was her blue gray eyes, which shone with spirit. She walked with grace into the room and though she looked displeased she still remained beautiful.
Inuyasha could hear Kouga gasp and see him drooling over the princess. He didn't take a look at her but decided that he should see what Kouga was drooling over. He turned around and his eyes gazed into hers.
"Kikyo?" he whispered under his breath so that no one could hear. Fortunately no one was paying attention to what he was saying but the whole court was looking at the princess.
"Ah…this is our daughter princess Kagome." The Queen announced.
"It is a pleasure to finally meet you princess. I must say you are the most beautiful princess I've seen thus far and I've seen many princess's" Kouga took Kagome's hand and kissed it.
When he was done Kagome drew her hand back. "And you are?" she asked.
"I am the wolf demon prince. My name is prince Kouga. I will fight to win your heart princess."
"Uh…and who are you?" Kagome turned to Inuyasha for she felt uncomfortable around Kouga.
"I am Inuyasha." Was all he said. He didn't want to look directly into her eyes for he was afraid, afraid of being drawn into them. Afraid of drowning in those beautiful blue gray orbs.
"Kagome show the princes to their rooms please dear." The queen ordered.
"Please follow me." Kagome led the two men out of the room and down a great hall. They walked for quite a while when Kagome reached a room.
"This is your room prince Kouga. And the room right next to this one it you're room prince Inuyasha. Across from both your rooms is my room, if you need anything come to me and I will be glad to help." With that Kagome retreated to her room. 'I can't believe I said that! Why am I being so polite all of a sudden?'
Inuyasha sat down on his bed. He seemed to be caught up…with the princess. 'That girl…she looks exactly like Kikyo'. Inuyasha couldn't help but see the resemblance between the princess and his past love. However Kagome had something unique to her. Instead of those cold eyes that Kikyo had Kagome's eyes were a different color. They were full of spirit and life. She had a spark to her. Although she reminded him of Kikyo. Something about her told Inuyasha that she was the complete opposite. And different in everyway.
