I am SOOO sorry that I haven't updated for a while, but my mom just died. Actually, I just found out about two hours ago. I'm only updateing this now because I need to get my mind off things. I didn't add anything to it today, so it's a little short. Hope you like it. I started writing it a long time ago.....

Disclaimer: ...Oops. I don't think that I have been writing there these things in my other chapters. Oh well. Don't sue me. Please. Anywho....I don't own Inuyasha. Hey, do you guys know if anybody ever gets sued for not writing these things?

*~*~*~*~*The end of chapter 21....*~*~*~*

However, she did nether. She simply lay there. Unmoving, not even looking at him. What could possibly be wrong with her?

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Chapter 22*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Finally, Koga could take no more. He stopped what he was doing and got inches from her face. Gripping her shoulders tightly he screamed.

"What is wrong with you! Fight back damn it!" he looked into her eyes for a reaction, any emotion at all. But there was nothing. "You heard me! Struggle!" 'She's taking all the fun out of this!' he thought looking at her.

Kagome only shook her head 'no' slightly and stared of into space. 'Nothing matters anymore. I'm tired of fighting. There is no use. They always win, and struggling only makes it ten times worse. Maybe if I just lay low and do what they say they will get bored of me.' Kagome thought, off in her own little world.

Koga growled in frustration and shoved himself off of her.

"I am sick of you Kagome. What ever is wrong with you better not last. I don't like this new attitude." Was the last thing he said before leaving the room.

The young girl still lay on the bed, unmoving, frozen. After a long while she finally found her shirt and slid it back on. Cautiously she walked back to her room and got into bed. 'I wonder if this means he finally gave up?' Kagome thought hopefully before drifting off to sleep.

The next morning she awoke to her alarm clock going off. Slowly, she got out of bed and got dressed for school. After walking downstairs, she realized that Koga was nowhere to be seen. 'I wonder where he is?' she wondered.

He was not in the kitchen, or any of the guest rooms. The living room was empty as were all of the bathrooms. 'Well, there is only one other room left to check. Koga's.' she thought unfortunately. 'I have to see if he's there......'

The curious girl jogged up the stairs and approached her 'brother's' bedroom. The door was shut. Slowly and cautiously she reached out and gripped his doorknob. Turning it quietly, she pushed open the door and peeked inside. Nothing. He wasn't there. She checked behind the door, half expecting him to pop out and scare her, but he didn't. There was no one in the room.

She sighed. 'I better call Inuyasha and see if I can get a ride....'. Phone in hand, she dialed his phone number.

"Hello?" came a 'to awake for in the morning' masculine voice.

"Hey Inuyasha, it's me, Kagome." She said, almost nervously.

"What's up?" he asked in his peppy tone. (AN: hee, hee, hee)

"Well, I was wondering if yo0u could give me a ride to school today...."

"Sure, but don't you usually get a ride with Koga? Where is he? Did he do something to you!?" he asked in a hurry.

"Ummm, he's not here. I don't know where he went, but I've searched the whole house for him and he is nowhere to be found." She stated, purposely avoiding his OTHER question.

"And you have no idea where he went?" he forgot about what he asked only a second ago.

"No..."

"Why would he just leave you alone like that?"

"I don't know. I think he was mad at me....." she clamped a hand over her mouth. 'Please, say he didn't hear what I just said.' She thought frantically. She really had no idea why she didn't want him to know what happened between her and Koga last night. She trusted Inuyasha, didn't she? Maybe was just the humiliation. Maybe she didn't want him to think that she was so weak as to let someone to that to her. Whatever reason it was, she just couldn't bring herself to tell him.

"What was that Kag? Why was he mad at you?"

"Uhh, I have to go get ready Inuyasha, see ya in a while!" and with that final rushed sentence she hung up the phone as quick as she possibly could.

"Wait! Kagome!" He yelled into the phone, but it was too late, she had already hung up.
