Kagome looked herself in the face. Her reflection staring back at her. Throwing her hair into a messy bun, she grabbed her silk black gloves. Her barefeet pounded against the stone floor. As she slid the gloves over her wrists.

Kouga was waiting for her at the dining room entrance. He took her hand in his and without a fight she went in. The chair beneath her was warm and with the silk against silk it was hard for her to stay up. Forks and knifes scratched at plates as they began dining.

"So who was in the forest?" Kouga asked curiously. Kagome looked at him avoiding eye contact. He questioned her once more, Kagome still with no answer. Kouga knew the answer, as did Kagome. She kept her mouth shut, as long as she could. His hand slammed across her face and knocked her out of her chair. Tears leaked in to the carpet keeping her face dry. The butler had enough nerve to hold back Kouga and let Kagome get up. Blood dripped from her lip and all on her glove as she wiped her mouth on it.

The other servants helped Kagome upstairs and shut the dining room doors. Through the thick wood Kagome heard Kouga say to one of the guards "I want him dead do you hear me," he screamed. Apparently the guard agreed to his order because after a moment of silence Kouga said in a sly voice "Good".

Kagome ran upstairs and slammed her door shut. This time her blankets soaking up her forbidden tears. Her anger leaked out as she began to destroy the room. Throwing bits and pieces at the walls making them shatter. She punched her vanity mirror the glass shards sprinkling the floor around her. Her barefeet sank into the pieces blood trailing along behind her as she walked around the room. She pushed furniture against the walls making the room shake. Kagome lied on the floor her body becoming weak every second. She took deep breaths and watched the blood poor out of her feet, staining the carpet. The open window let the humid air pass through the room. Kagome forced herself to get up and take off the heavy dress. She walked very slowly to the closet and pulled out an ivory colored tanktop and long pants, made from very lightweight cotton. The red satin dress fell to the hot ground as Kagome slipped the tanktop over her head and pants over her hips. She left the back door in her open as she walked out on the beach.

The warm sand swam between her toes and she walked down the hills. Waves crashed along the coast, dragging moist sand back with it. The suns light faded as clouds came into view. Breezes from arriving storms blew the thin material. For almost a minute Inuyasha escaped her, but she quickly brought him back into her mind. She wished he could come over and hold her tightly, to protect her. It took a while for Kagome to analyze what Kouga had said. Questions passed her through her head, thinking if he could be that cruel to kill a person for someone who would never love him. I was hard for her not to let the tears flow, so she did the best she could to suck it up. But that didn't matter nothing mattered anymore, not if Inuyasha wasn't going to be there. Rain droplets fell, crashing into the grains of sand. Kagomes hair became soaked, but she still kept walking. Her tears came again hidden from the raindrops on her face that disguised them. The waves became larger and the current stronger pulling everything in its reach into the gray-blue ocean. The storm washed away all footprints made in the sand. As well as the blood left in the deepest secretion of it. Kagome sat on the wet sand, picking her foot up to look at it properly. Blood mixed with rain and trickled down her foot, splattering on the sand beneath her.

Kagome ran up to the opened door leading into her bedroom and locked it shut. Everything was still out of place and distorted. Glass shards still in one-area and porcelain pieces still smashed on the floor. Furniture turned against walls had finally lost its balanced and collapsed. The only thing standing now was her bed. Its wooden frame stood tall from a few feet away. The gold satin sheets lay neatly over a large mattress. Along with matching pillows. It seemed as though the room had a different energy everytime she walked into it. Her anger and frustration grew back and she did the only thing she could think of and began turning the sheets into scraps and pillows into cotton balls. After all the top stuff was destroyed she started at the bed throwing parts of furniture at it. Denting the sides and front of it. AT last the bed frame stared shaking until eventually fell to the ground and only left, at the most, two inches of a full piece of wood. Kagome went over to the pieces and touched the rough texture, the wood splintering her hard and fingers. She crawled over to the scraps of fabric and lay her head down on the soft carpet, slowly shutting her eyes.
