A FORCED PATH

CHAPTER 2 A NEW BEGINNING

(4 YEARS LATER)

As Mrs. Higurashi was heading towards the kitchen the doorbell rang. She opened the door and saw a very tall man with silver hair. His hair went all the way down his back and his face had two marking on each of his cheeks. His eyes were as intense as gold, his face emotionless and cold. This made Mrs. Higurashi very uncomfortable. He was dressed in what appeared to be a very expensive outfit.

"May I help you." Mrs. Higurashi asked, with a bit of nervousness in her voice.

"Yes, I am Takahashi Sesshomaru. I am looking for Mr. Higurashi . May I speak to him?" He said in a straight tone of voice.

"Yes of course, please come in." said Mrs. Higurashi still slightly concerned of this straight forward man.

As she lead him to the living room, Mrs. Higurashi thought that this mans name was very familiar. When they entered the living room Mrs. Higurashi left the two men alone.

`(When Mrs. Higurashi left the room, Mr. Higurashi started to talk.)

"Mr. Takahashi what brings you here?" Asked Mr. Higurashi clearing his throat.

"You know why I am here. You have not paid me. I do not like to be cheated out of my money." Stated Sesshomaru, in his cold tone.

"w…what are you talking about." Said Mr. Higurashi, with sweat rolling across his brow. "This can't be right, I remember sending you the last payment in august."

"Are you calling me a liar Mr. Higurashi?" his voice slightly raised. This made Mr. Higurashi flinch in fear.

"Of…of course not! I'm just saying that I remember sending you the last payment! Are you sure you did not receive it?" Asked Mr. Higurashi speaking loudly now.

"Mr. Higurashi that payment that you sent was not nearly enough. You have failed to keep up your end of our deal. Your daughter will be taken as ours. She will start working at Youkai enterprise next week. From that point on it will be wise that you have no contact with Kagome. My time as come I must leave now."

"But…" Mr. Higurashi stuttered.

"No buts Mr. Higurashi, good day."

Mr. Higurashi sat on the sofa with his face in his hands. Mrs. Higurashi entered the room, after seeing her husbands face, she knew what had happened. Mr. and Mrs. Higurashi were both in dismay. The two were left with no choice, they had to let her go.

When Kagome got back from the store she saw a very large limo leaving the front of her house. She couldn't help but wonder who it was but she decided that it was nothing important. As she entered the house she saw both of her parents sitting at the kitchen table. When she saw there faces she new something was wrong.

"Mama, dad, what's wrong?" asked Kagome with a concerning look. You could tell by her blue gray eyes that she was worried.

Mr. and Mrs. Higurashi decided that it was best not to tell there daughter the truth. So they told her that they found her a perfect job in the city at youkai enterprise

~~~

(After her parents told her the good news about the job, she decided to go celebrate with her three best friends.)

"OH KAGOME, WERE SO PROUD OF YOU!" Screamed Yuri, one of Kagome's friends.

"Who would of thought that Kagome would be the first to leave. We always thought that you would be the last one of use to leave are little town." said Sakura in a calmer voice.

"OH WERE GOING TO MISS YOU SO MUCH!!!" Bawled Eri

"There, there, don't worry. Kagome will call us everyday and write to use, right?" Asked Yuri giving Kagome a stern look.

"Of course you guys, don't worry its only two hours away. Ill try to come down every weekend, ok." said Kagome, reassuring her friends. "I could never forget you guys. You're my best friends we stick together right, right!"

"PIZZAS HERE!" yelled all three girls.

~~~

When the party was done, Kagome decided to walk home instead of getting a ride with her friends. She never thought that she would miss this place, but after thinking about all the memories, she was having second thoughts.

Her parents would be devastated though, they were so proud she got the job. She didn't want to disappoint them. They also said that it would be best if she got an apartment in the city to be close to the company. She didn't know what kind of job she would be doing but her parents told her it would need her skills in business.

She started to think about how she would miss her mom, dad, grandpa, and her brother Sota. They were always there for her and now she was leaving. It was bound to happen though, being 24 and still living with her parents, she new it was time to leave. She would miss them dearly.

(She closed her eyes for a moment, long enough for a few tears to fall and continued home.)

When she got home she packed all the things she could and put everything in her car. She made sure she had enough money for a hotel until she could get an apartment. She decided to go to bed early and get a good nights sleep. She had a long drive tomorrow and wanted a place to stay before she started work. Tomorrow would be the start of a new life she just didn't know how dangerous it would be.
