Last time: What happened to Grandpa this time?" Kagome asked figuring that it was just his way of getting a little attention. Sota walked into her room with a scared look on his face.
"What are you talking about Sis? Look out the window. This isn't for grandpa. Its for you."
Kagome looked out the window and let out a blood-curdling scream at the sight before her eyes.
This time:
"CLOWNS? I HATE CLOWNS!" Kagome looked ready to faint and Sota ran to her and clutched to her leg.
"Yeah, me too sis, but you know how Granpa loves them..."Sota's voice trailed off and he buried his face in Kagome's shirt.
"It's okay Sota. We just have to face our fears." Kagome put on a brave face, took Sota's hand in her and lead him down the stairs and out into the yard where a mini-circus was being held at the shrine. There were kids of all ages and booths set up everywhere.
"Oh! Kagome!" Her mother yelled, calling her attention to a particular clown in a purple and black costume. She inched toward the clown, pretending to look at it's face but really looking at the space below it. "Isn't Miroku just so talented?"
"MIROKU?" Kagome looked up and saw her best friend's boyfriend there with a bit of paint and make-up on! "What- what-"
"Ask Inuyasha!" Miroku yelled above the little kids that swarmed him wanting balloon animals. Miroku used the balloon he was blowing up to point across the yard near the Sengo Judai tree where a red clown was doing small feats of strength.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome called to him as she headed over there, despite knowing who was behind the make up she still couldn't get over that one time back in the third grade.....

"Gather around children! Let me give you your tickets before we head in the tent!" Kagome's third grade teacher called as the kids lined up single-file style. Suddenly she felt a tug on her shirt sleeve.
"Come on Kagome! Let's go in this way!" Inuyasha urged her towards a smaller, dingy looking tent. She was torn between staying with the group or going with her friend. Finally after a bit more persuasion she left.
The dirt stained blue and yellow striped tent smelled like smoke and had an ominous air to it. Inuyasha went first and pulled back the curtain and stepped inside. She didn't hear any shriek of fear so figuring it was safe she stepped in to only to have her eyes shroud in immediate darkness.
"Inuyasha!" Kagome screamed and her only reply was a small boy's hand holding hers. She found a small comfort in this and figured they gagged him and covered her eyes. She started screaming more in hopes that someone else would hear but to no avail did anyone answer. Just a few older mens' grunt could she hear. Along with panting and soon her mouth was covered too. She wondered if they also covered Inuyasha's eyes. Hours seemed to pass and the tent grew stuffy. She could hear the men coming and going and could tell when there was more than one because the smoke accumulated faster. Kagome had to choice but to breathe it in...
What seemed like days later but really was just a mere two hours she felt someone moving her. In hopes of it being someone rescuing her she complied with the person picking her up and setting her down on something soft and cushy. But then when she felt rough movements around the waistband of her skirt did Kagome know something was wrong. She started to kick and try to get away. One time she thought she connected with the man because she heard a grunt and then thump as he fell to the floor. The gag was removed from her mouth but a hand covered it immediately. She bit the hand and heard Inuyasha yelp.
"OW! Kagome it's me! SHH! Keep quiet!" He then took the rag from her eyes and she opened wide. Bad idea. From being in darkness to long the bright light hurt her eyes and got dizzy. But no time for that they had to leave! She looked around and took in her surroundings. The man who had picked her up was a drunken old clown past his prime with a five o'clock shadow. There was blood dripped from his head... Kagome screamed and the man began to stir.
"Hey you damn kids.."His words were slow and slurred but his actions weren't. He was on his feet and after them within moment. They ran out of the tent and around toward the bigger red and white one that they were supposed to be in with their class. Once Inuyasha and Kagome reached the opening they ran in but the attraction closest to Kagome just happened to be more clowns pretending to hurt each other... she screamed and passed out. The mean clown ran in and was about to grab her and Inuyasha but Inuyasha kicked him, hard. He fell to the floor wincing again in pain and people started to rush over and help out the young children. Rushing them to get water and a snack. Checking to see if they had anything wrong, calling an ambulance.
Kagome woke up briefly several times but there was so much commotion... She could remember it all but she never forgot the face of that clown...

"Kagome!" Inuyasha stopped his act and walked her way. She just kinda stood n the middle of everything, trying to take it in without freaking out. "I know you hate clowns..."
"Because of you!" She screamed as a little kid brushed past her with one of Miroku's demented balloon animal.
"Yeah, I know! And I am so sorry about that... and I'm sorry about what happened these past few days." Inuyasha got a sad look in his eyes and it softened Kagome's heart.
"Oh, Inuyasha..."Kagome didn't know what to make of this.
"You have to understand I was being a dumbass when I did all that stuff our freshman year! I got blinded... I wanted you to think I was cool.. I..."
"Oh but Inuyasha! I always thought you were cool. You were my best friend!"
"I didn't care! I didn't want to be your friend!" Inuyasha yelled, getting frustrated. This was so hard... he didn't know if he could do it...
