Drown Me In My Tears
Prologue

500 years ago, demons, half-breeds, and humans walked this planet as one; all fighting to live...mainly the humans and half-breeds. Demons considered themselves superior to the other races and frowned upon them, and attacked when they felt most inclined to do so.

500 years later, modern day, all three races walk the earth as one. Everyone's equal, hardly any disruptions in the peace...

Stormy orbs peered through the glass, humidity seeping through the window pane. Yuka's voice spewed on about their plans for that night; her voice sounding high pitched, with excitement, over the phone. Kagome sighed, hardly paying attention to Yuka's babble, until she mentioned that Kouga should go with them to the party. Kag responded with a 'maybe', not knowing if that's what she wanted or not. That is, of course, until he called in on her other line.

"Oh! Yuka, hold on, Kouga's calling..." Kagome didn't even wait for her friend to say anything, she just flipped over to speak with her boyfriend.

"Hey Kouga-kun! Yuka and I are going to a party tonight, wanna go?" Her voice rang with giddiness. Her vision started to become fuzzy, her heart fluttered, and her thoughts meshed together, creating goop.

"Nah, Ginta and I have things planned already, you wanna go with?" Kouga answered.

"What? I thought you and I were gonna spend your last weekend in town together..." Kagome's face fell.

"Well, apparently I want to do something other than go to a party..." Kouga sneered, his voice chilled.

Kagome bit back her growl, "You two do everything together! Why can't you just do something with me for once?! Without him!" She flinched after the words spilled from her rose tinted lips.

Kouga's patience died. "You're impossible! I asked you to come along, you denied, like always! I'm sick of it! We're done!"

The sound of the phone clicking off rang in Kagome's to resound, along with Kouga's words. How could he do this to her? Her thoughts were soon interrupted by Yuka's voice asking the raven haired girl if she were alright. Kagome's demeanor finally broke down, and heart-wrenching sobs sounded throughout the room.

"Kagome? Oh my gosh, Kagome! Are you ok? What happened? Kagome, talk to me!" Yuka's voice shrieked through the phone, waking Kagome from her sobs, quieting them slightly.

"Yuka! He broke up with me! Kouga broke up with me! How could he do this to me? I helped him. I cared for him. I took care of him during his depression!" Just speaking his name enhanced the tears. "I loved him!"

"Kagome it's ok... shh. You're fine... calm down honey. It'll get better, and besides, he's a jerk! Kouga never deserved any of your time..." Yuka's voice softened to comfort her distressed friend.

"Thank you, Yuka... oh hold on. It's him." The stormy orbed girl flipped over, ready to give that soulless guy a piece of her mind. "What do you want from me now?!" Kagome reflected Kouga's earlier tone.

"How dare you! Kouga's nowhere near me! He's off mourning over, apparently, some ungrateful brat. You should be a lot nicer when you answer the phone!" Kouga's sister growled out to Kagome, and then hung up.

Gasping in shock, Kagome flipped back over to Yuka. "It was his sister! I can't believe her! Ugh! You know what Yuka, I'll talk to you later. I'm gonna get ready for the party...I'll see you there at seven. Ok?"

"Ok, Kagome! Great attitude, by the way. It's nice to have you back..." Yuka broke into a brilliant smile on her half of the phone. She stated her good-bye and clicked off her phone; leaving Kagome to ready herself for that night.

Pale fingers traced over the reflection of the owner. Kag-chan's eyes lingered over the horrific scars contorting the porcelain skin of her arms, all caused by her own hands. She sighed and stared at the ebony ensemble that matched the girl's mood oh so well. Kagome readjusted her skirt, and then picked at her fish-nets. Her top clung to her slender body, the silky material causing the teen to shiver. "Humph, I'm ready..." She flashed an evil grin, and sauntered out of her room, and ran into Yuka.

"Let's go!" She grabbed Yuka and headed out to the car where Yuka's mother waited for them.

"This is going to be so much fun... I can't wait to get there! Ayumi's gonna meet us there..." Yuka giggled, and started rambling on about the party. And once again, Kagome zoned out, gazing out the window at the darkening azure sky.

Squeals from Yuka awakened Kagome from her thoughts, bringing forth her fierce attitude to have an awesome time. "Time to party..." The cobalt eyed teen whispered, opening up the door, and taking a step out. She plastered on a fake, seductive smile and joined Yuka and Ayumi at the door.

"You look great, Kagome!" Ayumi commented and scrunched her hair to add extra bounce. "Haven't seen you so dressed for a party in awhile..." She was going to continue on, but was cut short by Yuka's impersonation of someone getting their head sliced off, then nodded her head, and smiled as if nothing happened.

Kagome blinked at the odd behavior, but shrugged it off. She hooked arms with the two girls and glided into the party. The rooms smelt musky, and caked with smoke. Music blared from one room, while teenagers danced on the balconies and in the middle of hallways. The three friends pin-pointed the stoners section and steered clear, not wanting to mingle and succumb to the temptation.

As they made their way through the crowd, they received greetings from friends and acquaintances from school. Others they had never met; some guys even whistled at their fish-netted legs and bare stomachs. The three girls blushed and continued on, making their way towards the back of the house. Pop cans littered the carpeted floors, along with stiletto shoes that girls had gotten sick of wearing while they grinded against their dates.

Kagome glanced up, and then poked Yuka and Ayumi to do the same. Hanging from the light fixture was a girl's bra. Ayumi gasped, and Yuka broke out laughing. Within seconds they spotted the other undergarment hanging on the coat rack by the front door. "Well, this party is very open with nudity!" Kagome giggled and pushed them forward into the kitchen to get something to drink. Only to return back into the midst of people and get thrown into a mosh.

The unruly party continued on for hours, hitting around twelve. People started to drift away and head home, coming up with excuses about why they broke their curfews, that they'd be telling their mothers soon, as they went. The sapphire orbed teen glanced around for her friends, finally picking them from three drunk college students. She smiled uneasily at them before pulling the other girls away. Once outside, the chick posse started their long trek home.

Yawning, Kagome finally collapsed onto her bed, breaking into tears. All thoughts of the party fizzled away, leaving room for the biggest problem to come out and nag at her. "Oh Kouga... why did you hurt me so...?" She stared up at the ceiling, salty, warm water streaming down her cheeks. Eventually Kag-chan cried herself to sleep.

She awakened the next day to the sound of falling rain. It was as if the sky was crying for her, wanting to rid her of the pain itself. Kagome woke up late, and then hurried to the computer room. She wanted to hide from the family, even though it was summer. Her grandfather still was the Priest of the temple they all lived in, and Souta was running about somewhere as well. Kagome just couldn't show her face to her family, just yet.

Everyday from ten in the morning until twelve at night, she stayed on the computer from then on. Kag-chan tried to rid herself of the depression that was intoxicating her life. Her eating habits became nothing, and eventually turned to anorexia, along with becoming an insomniac.

Funny thing was that her family member's didn't pick up on it at all. This, of course, only added to her pain, it appeared that she was being ignored by everyone. Yuka and Ayumi had ceased talking to her for some reason. What had happened to her life?!
