Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha or any of the characters in this story…nor do I own this story idea.


One year had passed and I'm still with Inuyasha. I didn't think it was possible but I grew more and more in love with Inuyasha everyday. We would do a lot of stuff together and we never had any fights. We argue, but it never came to the point where we would get really mad at each other and he usually let me have it my way.

Miroku Houshi was Inuyasha's other friend and he hangs out with us a lot too. Miroku is a little older than me and is really nice…except that he's a pervert. He has this really cute smile that when he smiles, you can't help but smile back. After that smile, he usually gets smacked because his hand is always not where it's supposed to be. His family life also isn't good. His dad is a drunk and his mom had passed away when he was young. So usually it was the three of us together.

My home life is a lot better thanks to Inuyasha. My step dad didn't dare to hit or touch me anymore and it's still the same between me and my mom. We don't talk much. Inuyasha's parents like me a lot too. It's because when they tell Inuyasha to do something and he wouldn't do it, they would come to me. I'm kind of like their pawn. Life was heaven for me until it completely shattered one day.

It started out with good news but who would have known it would end up in tragedy?


June 15, 1994

My step dad and mom came home one day from visiting the Takahashi's. "Guess what?" my step dad told me excitedly.

"What?" I asked calmly.

"The Takahashis are planning a wedding for you and Inuyasha!"

I sat down because my knees gave out. This news hit me with total surprise but I was so happy to hear it because I'm so in love with Inuyasha. "Really?" I asked excitedly. "How did this happen?"

"Mr. Takahashi wanted Inuyasha to get married and he figured you're the girl he should marry."

"What did Inuyasha say?" I had to ask. I didn't want him to be forced into this.

"Of course he agreed," he answered.

My breathing increased so I took out my respirator. After I calmed down, my step dad took me into his room and told me all about the arrangements.

Meanwhile back at the Takahashi mansion…

"Just because you're making this wedding for me and Kagome doesn't mean I owe you anything!" Inuyasha yelled angrily at his dad.

Mr. Takahashi grabbed Inuyasha by the collar of his shirt. "Inuyasha! You listen to me. Once you and Kagome get married, your grandpa will give you all of his businesses. Sharing part of it with your dad isn't asking for much is it?"

Inuyasha pushed his dad away. He began to laugh. "The only two people grandpa will give the businesses to is me or uncle. He won't give it to you because you'll spend it all on those whores! I bet all your money is gone now."

It was true. Mr. Takahashi was in serious debt and he needed Inuyasha to get married because Inuyasha's grandpa was going to give Inuyasha his inheritance once he gets married. Inuyasha had just turned 18 and his dad had planned the marriage months ahead. His dad got on his knees. "Please son. Please do it for me."

Inuyasha rolled his eyes. "You're so pathetic dad." He sighed. Living with Kagome taught him compassion and sympathy for people. "I'll see what I can do dad." He went into his room. Just then his cellular phone rang. He picked it up, thinking it was Kagome. Using his sexy voice, he whispered, "Hi Kagome."

A weird high-pitched giggle came from the other end of the line.

"Ooh…"said the voice. "Hi to you too sexy."

Inuyasha rolled his eyes. "Oh shut up Miroku."

Using his real voice, Miroku began to laugh out loud. "Gross Inuyasha! That's how you talk to Kagome? EW! It gives me the chills!"

"Hey Miroku," said Inuyasha seriously. "Is everything set and ready to go?"

"Yeah Inuyasha," said Miroku.

"Good," said Inuyasha, smiling. "Meet me at the docks tonight. From there we can sail to the mainland airport and get away from Japan to start a new life in Korea."

"Yeah," said Miroku. "But did you tell Kagome about it?"

"No," answered Inuyasha, sighing. "I'm afraid she won't leave her family. I'm planning to just kidnap her and take her along. It's easier that way and no hassle."

"Right," said Miroku. "At least the three of us will still be together."

"Yeah," said Inuyasha. "Meet you in an hour. Get everything ready. I got our money too."

"Okay," replied Miroku.

"Bye." Inuyasha clicked off his phone. Inuyasha's dad didn't know it but his grandpa had given him $10 million in advance, along with hotel ownerships in Korea and Japan as his wedding gift. He planned to leave his dad $5 million and live off the rest with Kagome and Miroku. He smiled thinking about how he would get away from everything and just be with the one he loved the most, Kagome.

Back at home I was so excited I couldn't sleep. I know I was still young to be thinking about marriage but I know Inuyasha is the only guy for me. I held my teddy bear close as thoughts of Inuyasha drifted me to sleep.

It was midnight now. Inuyasha snuck out of his house quietly without making a noise. He carried his backpack full of money on his back. He planned to go to Kagome's house to grab her and leave. Then it would be just him, Kagome, and Miroku leaving together. He was almost to Kagome's house when he realized that he was being followed.

It was his uncle's men. They came to get rid of him. Inuyasha was smart. He knew the streets too well. He made it through the alley and those men ended up losing him. But when Inuyasha reached Kagome's house, about 10 men had surrounded her house. They all saw him approaching. Inuyasha began to run as they chased him. He made it to the dock. He saw Miroku on the boat.

"Inuyasha! Hurry! The boat is leaving!"

Inuyasha threw his bag onto the boat first and made a high jump. He landed safely onto the boat. His uncle's men couldn't chase him anymore. Inuyasha and Miroku started cheering until Inuyasha realized what was missing. Kagome. He had left her. Inuyasha fell to his knees.

"What's wrong?" asked Miroku.

"Kagome! We left her! We have to go back!" yelled Inuyasha.

Miroku opened his mouth in shock because he just realized it too. Then he shook his head sadly. "We can't. If we go back, we'll just get killed and we'll be putting Kagome's life in danger too." Inuyasha moved away from Miroku, knowing that the darkness will cover his face. And for the first time in his life, Inuyasha cried.
