Oh wait, one more thing. If you have seen the anime "Full Moon Wo Sagashite".. your going to see A LOT of similarities in this story from that show. You'll see what I mean by that later.. well, maybe this chapter.
To bittersweet-memory: Yes, Kikyou is the "bad-girl". And all her little preppy snippy friends. God I hate preps.
To Kawaii houshi: Yeah.. he was shot in the face.. to make a long story short, he basically went up to sniff this guy's shoes, dogs do that to everyone, and the guy pulled out a gun and shot him. My step-mother and my father went to take him to the hospital and he was doing fine. All of a sudden he went into cardiac arrest, his heart stopped, his breathing stopped.. and that was the end. :/
To blackcats of the moon: Your father is wrong. Baka does not mean asshole, it means "stupid idiot" or "stupid" in Japanese. If you want to get technical, in Spanish it means "cow".. but.. we're not talking about spanish now are we? lol
To Ami Kuroneko: Yes, it is a favorite of mine. I don't know why, but I like accidental things happening. They lead to good things later.. -hint hint- -wink wink- -nudge nudge-
To Radhika14024: Nope. Sorry. No sequel to my other story. If you check out my profile it says I'm not doing one either.
To Yukino: Jesus Christ. I've never heard someone complain about eye-color. If you look at the anime her eyes are a chocolate-y brown/blackish. We're not talking about the manga here. We're talkin' about the anime. ANIME. And Kikyou's eyes are a black color in the anime. So.. if you don't like the colors.. well.. too bad.
To mikkey hodge: No lemon. Sorry. And just out of context.. but.. do I know you from somewhere? You seemed kinda'.. formal in your review.. the ending, anyways.
To Jaden Blythe: Hm.. hm.. hm.. will I kill her? To kill.. or not to kill.. that is the question.. I dunno. I'll have to think about that one. =P
Finally, on with the story now.

"Fine."
Everyone looked over at Kagome. "We'll do it. Inuyasha, remember, if
you chicken-out you loose." Kagome stood there with a straight-face, but
no one could really understand why she had agreed. Was winning REALLY that
important to her? It was.
She had one last thought before she held her hand out for everyone to
put it ontop of hers to make an agreement. Like the three musketeers did.
Kanna put her hand ontop of hers first. Kagura was next. Then Sango. Then
Miroku, Naraku, Kouga, and Ayame. Kagome glared over at Inuyasha who put
his hand over Ayame's slowly. When they were all there, Kagome lifted her
hand up into the air as did everyone else, 'I will not lose.'

Have you ever wondered the reasons behind someone's motive's? Inuyasha
has. Inuyasha wanted to know why exactly Kagome wanted to win this so badly
and claim her reputation as the best. Who was she trying to impress? What
was she trying to accomplish? What damnit, what?! He stood in front of
Miroku's house in the city thinking back to what he had just done. He had
basically agreed to his own death wish.. stupid Kanna. Suggesting he should
go to the Devil's Pit.. 'I wonder what she was thinking...'
So, what was he doing in front of Miroku's house you ask? Well, he was
going to find out all these questions for himself.. knock knock.
Miroku came to the door, "Hello. Can I..- Inuyasha?! What are you doing
here?!"
Inuyasha "huff"ed and looked at him. "I have a couple questions I need
to ask you. And I want a straight direct answer, got it?" Miroku glared
at him. He had no right to speak to Miroku like that. If he was anyone
else, Miroku would have knocked his head in. But this was Inuyasha.. he
was part of those exceptions. So with a unhappy smirk, he let Inuyasha
in.
---
Kagome, Sango, Kanna, Kagura, and the rest of the gang sat in Kagome's
backyard in the hammock. "So.. Kanna, how did you know about the Devil's
Pit?" Kagome asked, "I thought only my gang knew 'bout that god-forsaken
place."
"Well, awhile back, my step-sister had shown me the place.." Kanna got
a weird expression on her face, "..so we played around in there and stuff.."
Her eyes shimmered a little, "..she fell in though.. and.."
Kagura slammed her fist against the tree and yelled. "Don't talk about
that, Kanna!" She growled and went back to relaxing. The rest of the gang
was in awe. Their step-sister must have drowned there.. but.. why would
she want to go back to that place? Was there a reason? Did she want to
find something? God, there were so many questions needing to be answered.
But Inuyasha's concern overruled all.
---
Inuyasha and Miroku sat in Miroku's room staring at each other seriously.
"What do you want to know?" Miroku spoke solemnly.
"Kagome." Was all Inuyasha said. Miroku raised his eyebrows. "What about
Kagome?"
"I want to know all about her. I want to know why she wants that reputation
so badly. She's like a puppy that won't give up their precious chew toy."
Miroku smirked at that one, "She is that.."
Miroku then looked at Inuyasha directly, "You really want to know?"
He nodded. Miroku began to speak.
"..she's had a hard life, Inuyasha.." Inuyasha started getting interested
more now. How hard? Couldn't have been that bad. "Her parents are divorced,
she was abused as a child, and she has had.. a loss. She's been through
more crap than a 60-year-old has. She's probably gone to more bar-hopping
places, clubbin' places, and strip places than a perverted man has." Miroku
smirked at that one, and Inuyasha let out a little comment of his own,
"Nothin' wrong with that man."
"Yeah, yeah.. anyways, she's taken all of that plus more pretty lightly.
Seems like she doesn't care about it all now.. except for that loss." Miroku
kept going back to that subject, and this was the part Inuyasha wanted
to know.
"Loss?" He questioned.
"Loss.. the loss is the reason for her wanting that reputation." Ok,
now it seemed like Miroku was just going on and on to avoid the reason.
Inuyasha jumped next to Miroku and spoke, "What loss? Who? What? Why? And
how?"
Miroku sighed and looked sympathetically to Inuyasha, "Its a long story..
I'll tell you.."

A tall boy with blond hair kicked a 13-year-old Kagome in the side
and she fell over in pain. She curled up into a ball and squeezed her eyes
shut tightly; "Help!" she screamed out.
"No one is gonna' help someone like you, little girl." The boy picked
her up by the collar of her shirt and threw her back to the ground again.
"Your worthless. You little piece of trash!" He slapped her across the
face and picked her up again. "You don't talk, your just a quiet one..
getting good grades, who the hell would care about someone like you? Not
even your parents do!" Kagome began to cry and shiver.
He dug his fingernails into her throat and blood slowly began to
rise to the surface. The fear in her eyes was immense, and the boy just
kept beating her. He finally had her on the ground in a little puddle of
her own blood, and was about the give the final blow. With all the power
she had left, she put her arms over her head to protect what little was
left of her and squeezed her eyes tightly shut. She waited.. nothing came.
She opened her eyes and saw the boy fall to the ground.
She spoke softly, "What.. the..?"
"Are you alright?"
Kagome was confused. What on earth was going on? She was being beaten
to death just a couple minutes ago.. now someone is helping her? She tried
to stand up straight and just fell right back down on her knees. She slowly
lifted her head to the boy that had saved her. "..who are you? What do
you want?"
The boy smiled and carefully picked her up despite her condition.
"I'm here to help you." She couldn't take it anymore. She blacked out.
---
"Ah-ha.. so, she met a boy that saved her. What does that have to do
with a loss?" Inuyasha spoke, confused.
"That boy.. he had a great influence on Kagome's life. He was without
parents and lived in one of those shelters. They protected each other,
cared for each other, and had many great experiences together. Then.. when
he turned 16.." Miroku began again..
---
"I'm sorry.. Kagome.." He held her tightly around the waist as she
cried in his arms.
"No, no! I don't want you to go! Please, don't go!" She cried harder
and pressed harder up against him. He was almost at tears too when a man
behind him spoke, "Its time to go.."
"Kagome.." He lifted her chin up with the palm of his hand, "I'm
sorry it had to end up this way.. I was adopted.. One day we'll meet again.
I promise.. I'm not that far away from you, Kagome. Europe isn't that far.."
He lightly kissed her on the cheek and let go of her. "..I love you."
And just like that, he was gone from Japan. From Kagome.
---
"Ok. I understand the loss.. but, why the reputation? Does it really
matter?" Still clueless. Still dumb.
Miroku sighed. "Slow one today, aren't we? You see, if she gets the
reputation then she'll be known. Best racer. Ya' know. And maybe the news
would travel to Europe. Be on television. Get in the paper."
That's when it clicked for him. "Ah! So its so he'll notice her!" Miroku
sweat-dropped. "Yes.. that's it."
Inuyasha thought for a moment, "Hey.. is that why she always wears that.."
Miroku nodded. "That locket holds their future. Its the only thing he
left her. He told her not to open it until they met again.. but who knows
when that could be. She has been trying for years to save up and go to
Europe. She's almost there, actually. I think she only needs about $70
dollars."
Miroku went on and on about the times those two had together up until
the bitter end. When he was done explaining Inuyasha asked, "So how many
years has it been exactly?"
He thought, "Well, Kagome is 17 now. Its 2004. When she was 13 it was
2000. So four years."
"And how old was that boy? 13 also?"
"No, actually. I think he was 15 at the time of their meeting. Since
its been four years now he's 19."
"And you think that guy has been loyal this whole time? Jeez, he's probably
over there fucking some other woman." Inuyasha said bluntly.
"Yeah.. I told her that once. She just blew me off saying something
like, 'Oh! But he isn't like that!' or some other stuff. She has
faith in the goddamned boy, he needs to get his ass over here before she
cracks." Miroku put on a disgusted face. Inuyasha then stood up.
"That's all I needed to know. And I'm still going to beat her." His
pride came first before that girl.
"Even after what I told you? Talk about a selfish-bastard."
"If you aren't remembered, then you never existed." He walked out.
"We're gonna' have problems here.. I can already tell.." Miroku flopped
back on his bed. "Kagome.. if you only knew.."
