~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

The girls dropped Kagome off at the house that she is living in. Kagome gulped as she began to make her way to the house, she noticed that Naraku's mother's car was not there. 'Oh crap she must be out again. Shit and I have to stay here with Naraku!' Kagome's mind screamed as she thought of Naraku hitting her and touching her, she did not like that at all.

She opened the door and made a quick dash to her room before Naraku would see her. She ran into her room and locked it behind her. 'Oh man.' Kagome sighed as she wiped the sweat from her forehead. 'It is a though job staying away from Naraku. I am safe.' Kagome thought to soon, as a shadowed figure came from the dark corner of her room and jumped her to the floor.

"Hi Kagome, it me again." The figure chuckled evilly as he held her hands above her head. "Guess what Kagome you are going to be my girlfriend now." He told her as he looked into her eyes.

"No I wont, you cant make me be your damn girlfriend!" Kagome yelled into his face and struggled to get him to let her go.

"Kagome you are going to be my girlfriend or I will kill Inuyasha myself." He said in a seriousness sound in his voice.

Kagome's eyes opened wide as she thought of Inuyasha being killed by this evil man that was on top of her holding her hands over her head taking every right that she had away. Kagome could not fight Naraku any longer, "Okay Naraku, I will be your girlfriend." Kagome's eyes began to water, tears fell from her eyes, and she is letting him see the tears that she did not want to show him.

"Oh you cry for Inuyasha but you do not cry when I hit you. So you do like him this much to cry for him." And with that Naraku kissed Kagome forcefully as Kagome shut her eyes as the tears still kept on falling, she was hoping that the nightmare would fade away, but no such luck happened.

Once Naraku let Kagome go he left the room since it was one in the morning and school began later. "Night Kagome." He smirked and walked out of her room leaving her on the floor. When she was sure he was gone she wiped her lips with the back of her hand forcefully hoping that the taste that was left in her mouth would go away.

'Why does my life have to suck this much. I find out that I like this guy that I have just met. I see him kissing his ex. I am stuck in this shit hole, with an asshole that thinks he owns me. And if I am not with him he will kill Inuyasha.' Kagome thought to herself as she thought over her life. She began to cry as she thought about Inuyasha.

Kagome could not take it anymore; she got from under her bed a small bag that was full of sharp knives and razors that she has had for the longest. She wanted to end it, but something was telling her not too. She thought about her friends that will miss her, Sango, Ayame, Miroku, Kouga, and Inuyasha, especially Inuyasha.

She thought of his smile and the way his long black hair swayed as he walked and the way he looked at her with his deep pools of deep violet eyes. She could just get lost in them, Kagome wished that she was in his arms and hearing him tell her that everything will be alright.

Kagome just shook her head from the thought of him holding her. So Kagome took a very sharp razor out and slashed both her wrists ten times deep but not deep enough for serious damage. She just wanted to see her pain heal hoping it will heal the pain she was feeling in her tattered and broken heart.

She then laid down on her bed waiting for sleep to take a hold of her. Kagome's wish was granted and she was now fast asleep waiting for the day to begin.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

The morning sun beamed down into Kagome's window as she began to open one eye. She got out of bed and began to get ready for another day of school. Kagome was not feeling like her usual self so she wore baggy black pants with a very long chain running down one side of her pants. Kagome also had on a long black hooded sweater with two holes on the ends of the sleeves so she could put her thumbs there. She also wore steel toe boots, her hair was down and she wore no make up at all.

Before she could go down and head to school, Kagome made sure that her wrists were covered nicely so no one would see. She then picked up her bag and left for school with out saying a thing to anyone.

Just as Kagome was out the door and half way down away from the house she felt a hand stopping her as it touched her shoulder. "Kagome I have something to tell you." the voice from behind her stated, she knew who it belonged to.

"What is it Naraku?" Kagome asked with a distasteful sound in her voice. She did not bother turning to face him she did not want to look at him.

"I just wanted to tell you that I don't want you hanging around with Inuyasha and his friends, and I want you to quite the little band thing you joined." and with that Naraku left leaving Kagome where she stopped.

'Yes this is going to be the worst day of my life.' Kagome thought as a tear fell down from her sweet blue eyes, down her slender pale skin. She wiped it away and made her way to school.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Kagome made her way to her locker when she saw three girls standing there. She got closer and saw that it was Kikyo and her little group. "Hi Kagome. I hear you are with Naraku, hope you have a great time with him. Oh and by the way stay away from Inuyasha he is mine." Kikyo told Kagome as she looked at her with hate.

"Kikyo, I don't want Naraku. You can have Inuyasha since he is still stuck on you, but don't every talk to me like that or you will regret it." Kagome pushed Kikyo away from her locker and opened it. It was not a good day for Kagome so she did not want to fucked with.

Just then Sango and Ayame came running, "Kagome is everything alright? Are you feeling better?" they both asked in union.

"Yes guys everything is fine, but I am sorry I have to stop singing with you guys. Please don't hate me. I just can't hang out with you guys anymore and I cant sing with you guys, this is for your protection trust me." This was all Kagome said as she left her two friends standing there with a shocked look on their face as she just left to her first class.

"Sango, Kagome can't be with us no more?" Ayame asked as if she did not hear what Kagome was saying at all.

"Yeah Ayame. Something happened to Kagome she is not like herself, and she would not have said that." Sango answered Ayame but they were snapped out of the state of shock when Inuyasha startled them.

"Boo!" he yelled. "Hey where is Kagome I wanted to talk to her today?" He asked looking around the school.

"Oh she is over there standing by Naraku." Ayame pointed. "WHAT!!" Ayame looked back to see if she was right.

"WHAT THE HELL IS SHE DOING THERE?!" Sango shouted as she looked at Kagome standing by Naraku with her head down clenching her books to her.

Inuyasha looked at the girl they thought was Kagome, and Ayame and Sango where right it was Kagome standing with Naraku. Inuyasha took a good look at her and noticed that she had tears running down her cheeks, but her hair was covering it so no one would see, but Inuyasha saw.

He walked closer to Kagome, "Kagome why are you here and not with us?" he asked sweetly. Kagome looked at him with pleading eyes hoping he could see her cry for help.

Just as Inuyasha was about to grab her hand Naraku stepped in, "Hey Inuyasha stay away from my girl." With that Naraku grabbed Kagome's hand and yanked her away from Inuyasha. Inuyasha could see Kagome struggle in Naraku's grasp but she could not get lose.

"Inuyasha what is she doing?" Miroku asked as he walked into the school with Kouga following behind.

"I don't know but I am going to find out at lunch. Plus I have a few things to ask her also." With that Inuyasha went to his first class but he still could not get the image of Kagome with tears falling down her soft cheeks as she stood by Naraku.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

The day pasted by fast and Inuyasha was standing by Kagome's last class before lunch started. When he saw her come out he grabbed her by the hand and dragged her away from the rest of the class. "Kagome what is going on? And why do you have bruises on you face every time I see you?" he asked worried.

"Inuyasha!… I can't be seen talking to you! I…I…I have to go before he sees you!" Kagome tried to walk away but Inuyasha kept on stopping her.

"No Kagome tell me what is going on. You are my friend and I care about you." Inuyasha grabbed Kagome by the wrists into a hug and he could feel her melt in it. When he looked down he saw her wince as if she was in pain.

"Inuyasha please, I can't talk to you no more it is for you own safety…all of you guys. Please just go with Kikyo, I know you still love her." Kagome pulled away from the hug and looked into his sweet pools of violet.

"Kagome…" but before he could finish she ran away before Naraku could see them. 'What is wrong with her and what did she mean.' When he looked down at the floor he noticed something on his hands, when he looked he saw blood. 'What the fuck.' He thought and looked at Kagome as she disappeared.

Unknown to both Inuyasha and Kagome, someone was watching the whole scene from the shadows of the school. 'Inuyasha I will get you.'

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

School was just ending when Inuyasha was walking to his locker to get his books for the homework he had to do. 'Shit what a day this was.' He thought to himself, but he was knocked out of his thought when someone pushed him to the floor.

When he looked he saw Naraku and his two friends, Hiten and Juuromaru. Inuyashs got up and looked at all three of them. "What do you want?" he asked with an arched eyebrow up.

"I told you to stay away from my Kagome." Naraku told him as if it were a threat. Inuyasha just shook his head and turned around to open his locker.

"If you forced her then she is really not yours." Inuyasha said with his back turned to them. Inuyasha could feel that Naraku was getting more pissed then he was.

"Look you little momma's boy, even if I did force her she is not mine." Naraku yelled hitting a very sensitive spot in Inuyasha's heart.

"Leave my mom out of this. She is dead so don't bring her in this conversation. And Kagome is not yours." Inuyasha was not in Naraku's face glaring at him. He wanted too much to just punch the shit out of Naraku, but he promised his mother that he would not do that anymore.

Naraku just laughed and turned around, but in a flash he punched Inuyasha in the gut. Inuyasha fell to the ground and held his stomach. Just as he was about to get up Naraku and the other two guys just ganged up on him and began to hit him.

Inuyasha could hear two people yelling at the guys to stop when they stopped he saw that is was Miroku and Kouga running up to him to help him up. "Naraku what the fuck is wrong with you. You know damn well that Inuyasha will never fight back. Why the hell do you keep on doing this when he did nothing to you." Kouga shouted as he kneeled down with Miroku to help Inuyasha.

Naraku and the other two just laughed. "I told him to stay away from what is mine, but did he listen no so I had to take action." Was all Naraku said and was getting ready to beat the other two as well. Just as he was about to strike all the guys heard a, "STOP IT!!"

They looked only to see Kagome running and stand between Naraku and his two friends and Inuyasha and his two friends. "Naraku will you stop doing this, it was my fault I was the one who wanted to talk to him. So please just stop hitting him. He is not fighting back so you should just stop." Kagome's hands hung loosely down her sides.

Inuyasha looked at her hands and noticed that they were dripping blood. He took a better look and saw that the black sweater had brown stains on them as well, and the stains were fresh. 'Why is she taking the blame? And what is up with her hands.' He thought as he tried to get up with the help from his friends.

"Kagome I will deal with you at home. Lets go." Was all Naraku said and grabbed her wrist, Kagome winced at the sting of pain that shout up her wrist. Kagome walked with Naraku and the other guys as they made their way out of the school.

"Inuyasha lets take you home. Kagome will be fine, she knows were we all live, if she needs someone she knows where to go." Miroku tried to reassure Inuyasha as he saw the look of worry on his face. Inuyasha just nodded and made his way to Miorku's car.

"I will find out sooner of later, Kagome. I will.' Inuyasha thought as they made their way to his house. 'Why do I care so much about her, I mean I thought I loved Kikyo but now that I look at her I don't. And then I look at Kagome I feel something that I didn't' know I had. I just hope she is all right.'

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

As Kagome and Naraku walked home, Kagome was just thinking why Inuyasha was not fighting back. 'Why didn't he. I mean don't guys fight back when they get into a fight. Why didn't he? Well I will find out, that is my mission to find out why.' Kagome was taken out of her thought when she reached the house and was pushed to the floor by a very angry Naraku. 'Shit!' was all Kagome could think of.
