anyone else from the show, I just like to play with them occasionally ^.^
She was sitting in the herb garden carefully picking weeds just as her mother had taught her to. She smiled to herself when she heard the front door open and close, Souta and Mama are home from Souta's friends house. She stood up and dusted her hands off and walked inside only to come face to face with two bloody mangled bodies standing there staring back at her. She screamed and turned to run only to hit a red wall. 'Red wall wait a minute my house is white.' She followed the wall up and thought to herself that walls don't have golden eyes or long silver hair. She gasped and stepped back when Inuyasha readied his claws and swiped at her. She jumped back the claws barely missing her body and fell into a grave, dirt started piling on top of her and she screamed at the top of her lungs.
She jerked awake and ended up falling face first onto the floor. Her sobs racketed through her body and she heard someone pounding on her door.
"Kagome, oi wench are you ok in there?" A gruff voice from the other side of the door called out.
She ignored him and rolled onto her side curling her body into fetal position. That was the second night she had that nightmare, except for the first night Inuyasha hadn't been in her dream. She gave one last shuddering sob as the sounds at her door started to get panicky.
"Come on you stupid girl if you don't answer me I'm breaking down the damn door." The angry hanyou shouted at her.
"Go away I'm fine." She yelled back, not really wanting to deal with the bastard at the moment. She sighed out of relief when she heard him hmpf then the doorway across the hall slamming. She glanced towards her digital clock and groaned when she saw that there would be no more sleep for her tonight.
She grabbed some clothes and went into her bathroom, shutting the door and locking it not wanting to repeat the little episode the day before. She stepped into the shower, the water streaming from the showerhead mingling with her salty tears and running down her face. She didn't think she could bear living anymore if it meant having that dream every day for the rest of her life.
She grabbed the shampoo and quickly soaped up her hair, the motion soothed her slightly and she rinsed her hair quickly. She turned the shower off and just stood there for a minute leaning against the cool wall trying to get her legs to stop wobbling. The sorrow was finally catching up to her, up to the funeral she had been numb not ready to accept it. But watching her mother and brothers bodies being lowered into the ground shot her to realization, making her accept the fact that she was stuck with complete strangers till she either ran away, or turned eighteen and could get away.
She pushed away from the wall, still a little wobbly, and climbed out of the shower, grabbing the towel from where she put it on the toilet seat beside the shower. If circumstances had been different she would consider herself lucky to be living in such a fine home. Even the bathroom had luscious snow white carpet, soft on your feet the minute you step out of the shower, or bath. She shook her head starting to wonder how these people got so wealthy. 'Probably trust fund babies' she thought to herself bitterly.
She quickly dressed and stepped out of the bathroom still drying her hair when there was a soft knock on the door.
"Kagome dear it's almost time to go will you get Inuyasha out of his room before you come down stairs?" Kagome sighed a yes and grabbed her shoes, heading to her bedroom door. She stepped out and realized it was much darker in the hallway the she first noticed. She shrugged again and knocked on Inuyasha's door. When she got no response she turned the knob, and to her surprise it was unlocked.
'Guess he isn't as paranoid as I am about people walking in.' With a shrug she stepped inside just as Inuyasha was stepping out of the bathroom.
"What mo..." He trailed off when he saw it was Kagome instead of his mother and out of shock dropped the towel that was around his waist.
Downstairs Sesshoumaru was just heading out the door when he heard a female scream then someone being thrown against the ground painfully hard. He winced thinking his brother had walked in on the new girl naked again. God he was going to love having her here if she beat up his little brother every morning. With a chuckle he continued walking out, grabbing his keys from his jacket pocket.
Inuyasha was face first, completely naked, on the ground. He was smelling the carpet to much for his liking lately. He heard turn to leave and growled reaching out and grabbing her around the ankle to make her fall. He gave a satisfied smirk when she screamed and plopped down on her ass glaring at him, then blushed looking away. She saw some things that she really DIDN'T want to see.
Inuyasha finally realizing he was still naked grabbed his boxers and put them on, quickly followed by his pants. Which gave Kagome enough time to flee the room, and run down stairs. Inuyasha growled and put his shirt on then grabbed a light jacket following the girl.
She was waiting at the bottom of the stairs for him, her face down but he could smell the embarrassment radiating off her. He smirked and grabbed her arm none to gently yanking her out the door, grabbing his backpack on the way out.
She yelped and attempted to yank her arm away but to no use. "Let go of me you hentai freak, I'm not some doll you can drag around." He released her with a shrug and continued walking.
She growled a very dog like growl that made him flip his ears backwards and throw her a glance. He was really starting to wonder if she was actually human, I mean he knew she was a miko but the mikos he had met weren't as strong, nor as violent as she was. He rubbed his head where it still hurt from her slamming into the ground at SHE had walked in on HIM naked. He slowed down and walked by her as they walked through the gate and left the grounds. The school was close enough to walk to, luckily or he would be riding the bus. He gave a mental shudder at that and turned his attention to the strange girl beside him.
"Oi wench why did you beat the bloody shit outta me this morning?" He said with a growl.
She just glared at him and looked away again staring straight ahead, even though she didn't have a clue where they were going.
He growled again and grabbed her arm pushing her against a tree on the side of the road and getting his face really close to hers, which was probably a mistake because her scent made him dizzy. She smelled flowery and it wasn't from her shampoo. It seemed natural. He shook his head to clear his thoughts and stared her straight in the eyes.
"Listen I don't care that your family just died, I know it must be hard on you but if you weren't such a bitch to me I would be nicer. But seeing as how you push everything over the edge you don't deserve my sympathy." He nearly shouted at her.
"Whoever said I wanted your sympathy you filthy mutt now get your fucking hands off me before I purify you." She spat back at him, knowing fully well that her powers weren't that well developed yet, but he didn't know that. Right??
He growled once more and released her once again taking up the lead with her tagging behind. A few minutes later they got to the school and he immediately ditched her for his friends Sango and Miroku.
She stood there dumbly as he just left her to find her own way around. 'Well fine then I don't need that lousy hanyou's help anyway.' She thought to herself and with a hmpf turned to find the office, when a voice stopped her. She tilted her head to the side only to come face to face with the most clear blue eyes she had ever seen, they nearly took her breath away. She studied the rest of the boys face and realized he wasn't bad looking, a high cheekbones, full mouth, he was pretty cute, the only strange thing about him was his pointed ears.
"Hello there beautiful what might your name be?" The strange boy asked leaning against the short wall that surrounded the school.
"Higurashi Kagome" She said proudly standing to her full height and staring him down daring him to do anything. He just chuckled and gave her a smile that would warm any girls heart, if they hadn't completely shut their emotions down like Kagome that is.
"Well I'm Kouga, just Kouga." He said quickly, something about this girl drew him to her, he didn't know if it was her miko powers or the fact that she seemed like a challenge.
"Well Kouga it was nice to meet you but I really gotta be finding my way to the office." She said and turned to walk away when a hand shot out and caught her arm.
"Hey let me show you where it is, there are some guys around here that you may wanna watch out for like Inu-koro over there." He said pointing at Inuyasha. "He's a completely jerk face you may wanna keep an eye on him." He said genuinely, he didn't notice her arriving with him.
She narrowed her eyes at the strange boy when she finally noticed his tail. 'So it's another demon? Hmm.' She gave him a sweet smile, fighting down the urge to stick up for her house mate. "Thanks for the advice Kouga and yes I would love you help." She even let him take her hand and lead her into the school.
Over at the other side of the courtyard Inuyasha saw Kagome and Kouga walking into the school hand in hand and something inside him made him want to go beat the mangy wolf to death.
"......so I'm grounded for three weeks." Sango finished not realizing Inuyasha was paying on attention what so ever to her.
Miroku did though and he followed the hanyou's gave to the girl with Kouga. With a chuckle he looked back at Inuyasha. "Has our little puppy found a new playmate? So soon after Kagura dumped him to." He fell face forward to the ground as both Inuyasha and Sango smacked him over the head. Inuyasha stomped away, trying not to make it obvious that he was following the two.
Sango watched him go with a frown on her face. "Inuyasha walked in with that girl, and I swear I saw her face somewhere. Isn't she the one that moved in with Inuyasha and his family because her last living relatives were killed in a car accident?" She said really to no one.
Miroku was brushing himself off and looked at Sango thoughtfully. "You know what I think you're right, I swear I saw her face on the news." A lecherous grin spread across his face. "She seemed like a real hottie I wonder if maybe she would....." He trailed off as he was slammed into the ground by Sango again.
She glared down at him them stepped on his back as she walked to her class, god that stupid lech was going to be the death of her.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile Kagome was actually starting to warm up to Kouga, that is until he said something that completely pissed her off.
"Kagome you are my woman, no other shall have you." He was rewarded with a slap instead of a kiss he had been hoping far.
"Awe don't be like that love, you'll grow to like me I promise." She just glared at him and walked into the office, leaving him behind.
'Are all guys in this area jerks?" She thought to herself. With a shrug she talked to the receptionist who told her the principle was busy but would see her momentarily.
She read the name on the door that only said principle with a shrug. She leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes, she just wanted to go home. Not to the huge mansion she was living in now, to her home the shrine. She wanted her friends back, she wanted her cat and the huge tree and the creepy old well. She could feel the tears behind her eyes again but she fought to keep them there. She jumped when she heard her name and looked over to see an old woman poking her head out the principles office, he right eye covered with an eye patch.
"Higurashi Kagome I'll see you in my office now." She said, the woman seemed really friendly, even if she did look like an over aged pirate. She walked into her office and closed the door behind her and sat down in a chair watching the old woman as she sat down behind her desk. "I am Principle Hakashi, but everyone just calls me Ms. Kaede. Lemme see here awe yes here's your schedule." She handed Kagome a slip of paper with some room names and teachers written down on it. "and if you'll just wait a minute I'll call my aid in here to show you to your classes."
She picked up her phone and she heard someone in the outside office talk back, then the door opened and a girl about her age stepped in and gave her a warm smile then looked at the principle.
"Yes Ms. Kaede?" She said, pushing her dark brown hair from her face. She had deep brown eyes, almost a dark chocolaty color. Kagome studied her knowing she had seen her somewhere. Then it hit her, she was one of the ones that Inuyasha was talking to when he abandoned her this morning. She narrowed her eyes at the girl not really trusting any of Inuyasha's friends.
The girl just smiled at her again then once again turned her attention back to the principle.
"I would like you to show Kagome around today, she has all your classes accept for this period so it shouldn't be to hard." She smiled at both of them and they took it as the sign to leave. Kagome grabbed her bag with her books in them and turned to follow the girl out the room not even talking to her.
Once they got out of the office completely and were headed down the hall the girl she was supposed to be following turned around and walked backwards so she could talk to her. "Hey I'm Sango what's your name, wait Kagome right? Yea Ms. Kaede said it." She held out her hand to shake hers.
Kagome narrowed her eyes at the girl, and held out her hand hesitantly to shake her hand. The girl then turned and walked beside her shooting glances at her every once in awhile. "So you're living with Inuyasha?" At Kagome's nod she gave the girl a sympathetic groan. "I'm so sorry, I can barely put up with him eight hours a day at school you gotta live with him." Kagome was starting to warm up to the girl.
"So then why do you stay friends with him? He seems like a complete jerk to me." Kagome said quietly.
Sango just smiled at her. "I've known the guy since kindergarten, I beat up a whole bunch of bullies that were picking on him cuz of his ears. But he won't admit it he'll tell you that he was the one that beat up the guys that were picking on me." She said with a small smile, "Inuyasha has a big ego, and a bigger pride. He rarely says he's sorry and even rarer you'll see a genuine smile from him."
Kagome nodded, seemed like the cranky hanyou she had met. She was thinking about the past couple of days sullenly and nearly ran into Sango when she stopped in front of a classroom." This is your algebra class, I've already taken it but I'll be by here to pick you up after this class so just wait outside and I'll walk with you to Science." She smiled and walked away back towards the office.
Kagome took a deep breath and turned the doorknob and slowly stepped in. The teacher stopped whatever he was talking about and whipped his head around to look at her. "Hello young lady might I help you?" That's when she noticed that he was standing on a large stack of books. The teacher was actually really short, and overweight would be an understatement. He seemed to be permanently bloated.
She gave a meek smile and handed him her schedule and he looked it over with a nod and indicated a seat next to a boy with a short black ponytail pulled back low on his head. His violet eyes twinkled mischievously at her. She narrowed her eyes recognizing him as the other person Inuyasha was talking to. She nearly turned and walked out when she saw the lecherous smile on his face. But she would not show any weakness, she walked and sat in the desk beside him. Giving him one glance that showed come near me and die.
Miroku sensed the miko powers on her and grinned even wider. He liked his girls powerful. He reached out and took her hand and whispered quietly. "My lovely Kagome will you please consider bearing my children."
She just gave him a dry look and whacked him over the head with her algebra book.
Mr. Myoga looked over his shoulder from the blackboard and rolled his eyes seeing Miroku knocked out senseless and the new girl, Kagome glowing pink from anger. "Miss Higurashi if and when Miroku wakes up please hit him again for interrupting my class."
She smiled at the teacher, automatically liking him, and nodded. "I would love to sir." She shot the unconscious boy a glare and sighed to herself. This was going to be a long day. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kagome had gotten through the rest of algebra and science without anymore mishaps, she actually thought the day wasn't going to take anymore bad turns when on her way to lunch with Sango her hand was grabbed and thoroughly kissed by the wolf youkai that she really didn't want to be touching her. She narrowed her eyes at him and yanked her hand away smacking him over the head with the same book she used on Miroku.
Kouga fell to the ground with a stupid smile on his face while people around him just gave him weird looks. 'I knew she loved me back' He thought to himself. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sango led the way to a table outside, after being reassured by Kagome that she wasn't hungry and sat down with the girl. They were soon joined by Miroku who gave Kagome a terrified look and sat on the opposite side of the table from the girls.
Sango gave him a death glare. "You hentai jerk how dare you even attempt anything like that on Kagome, and so soon after what she's been through." She smacked him with Kagome's algebra book from across the table.
Kagome blushed and turned away. It actually felt nice having someone to stick up for her. Her friends at her old school would just say 'Awe that's so cute he probably likes you' or something along those lines. She was enjoying Sango and Miroku's company when he showed up.
"Oi Sango what's SHE doing sitting at OUR table." Kagome whipped around and saw Inuyasha glaring down at her, a bag of chips in his hand.
"She's sitting here because she's my friend Inuyasha if you don't like it go sit with your friend Kouga, you two seem to get along great." She said bitterly.
Inuyasha just growled and plopped down beside Miroku who was black and blue all over his face. "What'd you do piss Sango off again."
Miroku nodded then shot a glance at Kagome. Inuyasha took that as a sign that he had pissed both girls off and gotten an equal beating from both. He smirked, he actually liked the girl when she was screaming or slamming him into the ground.
Kagome caught his eyes with her own and he almost jumped to see so much sadness and pain in those blue depths. But it was soon masked by annoyance. "What are you staring at dog-breath?" She said angrily.
He glared at her. "Just he ugliest thing I've ever seen." He shot back.
She just about had it with males that day and Inuyasha had pushed her over the edge. Her hands turned a glowing pink and she reached over the table and touched him light, but even with the slightest touch he got thrown halfway across the lunch yard and slammed into a tree. Sango and Miroku just stood gaping at the girl as she calmly went back to reading her science book, getting ready for tomorrow's quiz. They shot a glance at each other and had mutual looks on their faces, don't piss Kagome off. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The rest of the day had been eventless, mostly because her last two classes for that day were Inuyasha/Miroku/Kouga free. She did have algebra, science, and history homework. Her art class teacher believed that homework was pointless, and made the students hate school more than they already did and vowed never to make her students do it.
She smiled as she walked back to the Kamatache house, the wind lightly blowing her hair. She knew her way back, without Inuyasha's help and left saying a quick goodbye to Sango before Kouga or Inuyasha could catch up with her. The only demons she actually thought she could like around here were Inutaisho and Sesshoumaru, and that was because they were quiet and polite. She smiled again thinking of Sango, something deep in her told her that she had found a lasting friendship in the violent temperamental girl, and was actually looking forward to school tomorrow so she could hang out with her. With a sigh she walked through the gates and stared up at her new home, the sorrow washing over her like a wave again. For the past two days she had seriously been contemplating suicide but each time she actually formed a plan in her head she would chicken out.
She sighed and kept her head down as she entered the house and went straight up to her room. She wouldn't come out till they called her for dinner, and then head directly back there. She didn't want her godmother to start pestering her about her day. She locked the door and plopped down on her bed closing her eyes, wishing everything would just go back to the way it should be. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Inuyasha saw her disappear into the house just as he got to the gate, he growled to himself for ever worrying about her. ' The only reason I did worry about her though is because mom would kill me if anything happened to the bitch.' He walked down the drive and through the front door, going up the stairs and pausing at her room hearing heart wrenching sobs from inside. He had a strange urge to go in there and comfort her but he pushed it aside and with a 'feh' slammed into his room and locked the door, plopping down on the bed. But no matter what he did he couldn't get the girls sobs out of his mind.
'I wish I could help you Kagome, but I don't know how.' He thought to himself then started on his homework.
A/N: There ya go chappie two, and don't worry they won't stay this young through the whole thing, they'll grow up, I'm not some sick freak -.- chapter three posted when I get an idea of what it's going to be o.o *hint hint nudge nudge*

"Yes Ms. Kaede?" She said, pushing her dark brown hair from her face. She had deep brown eyes, almost a dark chocolaty color. Kagome studied her knowing she had seen her somewhere. Then it hit her, she was one of the ones that Inuyasha was talking to when he abandoned her this morning. She narrowed her eyes at the girl not really trusting any of Inuyasha's friends.
The girl just smiled at her again then once again turned her attention back to the principle.
"I would like you to show Kagome around today, she has all your classes accept for this period so it shouldn't be to hard." She smiled at both of them and they took it as the sign to leave. Kagome grabbed her bag with her books in them and turned to follow the girl out the room not even talking to her.
Once they got out of the office completely and were headed down the hall the girl she was supposed to be following turned around and walked backwards so she could talk to her. "Hey I'm Sango what's your name, wait Kagome right? Yea Ms. Kaede said it." She held out her hand to shake hers.
Kagome narrowed her eyes at the girl, and held out her hand hesitantly to shake her hand. The girl then turned and walked beside her shooting glances at her every once in awhile. "So you're living with Inuyasha?" At Kagome's nod she gave the girl a sympathetic groan. "I'm so sorry, I can barely put up with him eight hours a day at school you gotta live with him." Kagome was starting to warm up to the girl.
"So then why do you stay friends with him? He seems like a complete jerk to me." Kagome said quietly.
Sango just smiled at her. "I've known the guy since kindergarten, I beat up a whole bunch of bullies that were picking on him cuz of his ears. But he won't admit it he'll tell you that he was the one that beat up the guys that were picking on me." She said with a small smile, "Inuyasha has a big ego, and a bigger pride. He rarely says he's sorry and even rarer you'll see a genuine smile from him."
Kagome nodded, seemed like the cranky hanyou she had met. She was thinking about the past couple of days sullenly and nearly ran into Sango when she stopped in front of a classroom." This is your algebra class, I've already taken it but I'll be by here to pick you up after this class so just wait outside and I'll walk with you to Science." She smiled and walked away back towards the office.
Kagome took a deep breath and turned the doorknob and slowly stepped in. The teacher stopped whatever he was talking about and whipped his head around to look at her. "Hello young lady might I help you?" That's when she noticed that he was standing on a large stack of books. The teacher was actually really short, and overweight would be an understatement. He seemed to be permanently bloated.
She gave a meek smile and handed him her schedule and he looked it over with a nod and indicated a seat next to a boy with a short black ponytail pulled back low on his head. His violet eyes twinkled mischievously at her. She narrowed her eyes recognizing him as the other person Inuyasha was talking to. She nearly turned and walked out when she saw the lecherous smile on his face. But she would not show any weakness, she walked and sat in the desk beside him. Giving him one glance that showed come near me and die.
Miroku sensed the miko powers on her and grinned even wider. He liked his girls powerful. He reached out and took her hand and whispered quietly. "My lovely Kagome will you please consider bearing my children."
She just gave him a dry look and whacked him over the head with her algebra book.
Mr. Myoga looked over his shoulder from the blackboard and rolled his eyes seeing Miroku knocked out senseless and the new girl, Kagome glowing pink from anger. "Miss Higurashi if and when Miroku wakes up please hit him again for interrupting my class."
She smiled at the teacher, automatically liking him, and nodded. "I would love to sir." She shot the unconscious boy a glare and sighed to herself. This was going to be a long day. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kagome had gotten through the rest of algebra and science without anymore mishaps, she actually thought the day wasn't going to take anymore bad turns when on her way to lunch with Sango her hand was grabbed and thoroughly kissed by the wolf youkai that she really didn't want to be touching her. She narrowed her eyes at him and yanked her hand away smacking him over the head with the same book she used on Miroku.
Kouga fell to the ground with a stupid smile on his face while people around him just gave him weird looks. 'I knew she loved me back' He thought to himself. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sango led the way to a table outside, after being reassured by Kagome that she wasn't hungry and sat down with the girl. They were soon joined by Miroku who gave Kagome a terrified look and sat on the opposite side of the table from the girls.
Sango gave him a death glare. "You hentai jerk how dare you even attempt anything like that on Kagome, and so soon after what she's been through." She smacked him with Kagome's algebra book from across the table.
Kagome blushed and turned away. It actually felt nice having someone to stick up for her. Her friends at her old school would just say 'Awe that's so cute he probably likes you' or something along those lines. She was enjoying Sango and Miroku's company when he showed up.
"Oi Sango what's SHE doing sitting at OUR table." Kagome whipped around and saw Inuyasha glaring down at her, a bag of chips in his hand.
"She's sitting here because she's my friend Inuyasha if you don't like it go sit with your friend Kouga, you two seem to get along great." She said bitterly.
Inuyasha just growled and plopped down beside Miroku who was black and blue all over his face. "What'd you do piss Sango off again."
Miroku nodded then shot a glance at Kagome. Inuyasha took that as a sign that he had pissed both girls off and gotten an equal beating from both. He smirked, he actually liked the girl when she was screaming or slamming him into the ground.
Kagome caught his eyes with her own and he almost jumped to see so much sadness and pain in those blue depths. But it was soon masked by annoyance. "What are you staring at dog-breath?" She said angrily.
He glared at her. "Just he ugliest thing I've ever seen." He shot back.
She just about had it with males that day and Inuyasha had pushed her over the edge. Her hands turned a glowing pink and she reached over the table and touched him light, but even with the slightest touch he got thrown halfway across the lunch yard and slammed into a tree. Sango and Miroku just stood gaping at the girl as she calmly went back to reading her science book, getting ready for tomorrow's quiz. They shot a glance at each other and had mutual looks on their faces, don't piss Kagome off. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The rest of the day had been eventless, mostly because her last two classes for that day were Inuyasha/Miroku/Kouga free. She did have algebra, science, and history homework. Her art class teacher believed that homework was pointless, and made the students hate school more than they already did and vowed never to make her students do it.
She smiled as she walked back to the Kamatache house, the wind lightly blowing her hair. She knew her way back, without Inuyasha's help and left saying a quick goodbye to Sango before Kouga or Inuyasha could catch up with her. The only demons she actually thought she could like around here were Inutaisho and Sesshoumaru, and that was because they were quiet and polite. She smiled again thinking of Sango, something deep in her told her that she had found a lasting friendship in the violent temperamental girl, and was actually looking forward to school tomorrow so she could hang out with her. With a sigh she walked through the gates and stared up at her new home, the sorrow washing over her like a wave again. For the past two days she had seriously been contemplating suicide but each time she actually formed a plan in her head she would chicken out.
She sighed and kept her head down as she entered the house and went straight up to her room. She wouldn't come out till they called her for dinner, and then head directly back there. She didn't want her godmother to start pestering her about her day. She locked the door and plopped down on her bed closing her eyes, wishing everything would just go back to the way it should be. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Inuyasha saw her disappear into the house just as he got to the gate, he growled to himself for ever worrying about her. ' The only reason I did worry about her though is because mom would kill me if anything happened to the bitch.' He walked down the drive and through the front door, going up the stairs and pausing at her room hearing heart wrenching sobs from inside. He had a strange urge to go in there and comfort her but he pushed it aside and with a 'feh' slammed into his room and locked the door, plopping down on the bed. But no matter what he did he couldn't get the girls sobs out of his mind.
'I wish I could help you Kagome, but I don't know how.' He thought to himself then started on his homework.
