It's Just That Way
After meeting you,
I saw your fearful face
And on instinct, I wanted to protect
To protect...you
And it's just that way
That's the Way it is
That's the Way it isShe was shaking; from fear, anger, cold, or torment and pain, was impossible to tell. She was in the corner of the dark alley between two huge buildings. It was no more than six feet wide. Why she was there in the middle of the night was hard to tell. The street light on the other side of the long narrow alleyway had barely enough light to display her silhouette.
She was huddled as far back into the right corner, as if she could disappear if she pressed herself tight enough. She had her arms wrapped around her knees, which were currently pressed against her chest. Her head bent, she trembled continuously.That's when she heard it. Foot steps. She looked up quickly.
"They are here to have more "fun," aren't they?" She thought bitterly. She involuntarily shuddered, and glared at the figure that she could barely see, walking closer.
That's when she saw him. He wasn't like the others that abused her. He had flowing silver hair, to his waist. Covering the top of his head was a black baseball cap with a blue embroidered "J" on it. This boy was no more than 2 years older than her, and yet she was drawn back to the fact that he had silver hair. He had a red and white plaid shirt that looked two sizes too big, and huge baggy jeans. He was not scrawny, just a tad thin. He looked tough, with his rough skin and his hard expression. She noticed that his eyes looked horrified when he saw her. She was awed. It wasn't the bare feet that surprised her. It was the golden pools of eyes that stared right into her soul that amazed her most. He had smudges of dirt and scrapes everywhere.
God had sent her an angel.
More tears slid down her already tear-stained cheeks. She beamed happily at him. He held out his calloused hand to her. She put her hand slightly in his. He pulled her up into a hug in one motion. She hugged back, as if every stranger did this when they met. They stood there, happily to be in each other's arms.
Now A days, 7 Years Later
Inuyasha remembered looking at Kagome for the first time. Her clothes were slashed in many areas. Her white shirt was see-through from bloodstains and sweat. Her white sweatpants looked like gray rags from and being sucked into a hurricane, again, and again. She was covered in purple, blue, and green bruises, head to toe. Her beautiful black and blue hair had grime in it, and she looked really tired. Her mocha eyes portrayed betrayal, hurt, fear, and anger. He had no clue, none what so ever on why he hugged her. She was just some lost girl and yet, it just seemed so natural when she hugged back. So, what did he do? He took her back to his home to where Sango and Miroku awaited him.
It had taken no more than an hour to get to know each other. They told each other their darkest secrets, and they didn't think twice about doing so. She had learned he was hanyou, and he learned she was an orphan who would be abused for fun. His name was Inuyasha hers was Kagome. He was ten and she was eight.
He took her to the outskirts of town. In a small wooden hut, lived about 6 other orphans. They all wore clothes too loose for them, but to Kagome, they looked like millionaires.
To the others, she looked like shit, to be blunt. The one thing that lit up the room was her smile though, and no one could deny it. Sango and Kagome become fast friends. They ate, laughed, and cried together. That's when Inuyasha realized...
God had sent him an angel.
Sango showed her some new boy clothes that were a bit baggy but extremely comfortable, and helped her clean her hair. She had never felt so happy before, not since she was with her Mama and Papa.
"Hey! Inu! Stop day dreaming!" Inuyasha turned his head to the source of the voice. Kagome was standing there with a baseball mitt and ball in her hand. "Are you ready to get your ass kicked?" she asked with a smug look on her face.
He smirked back. "No chance in hell." He stood up and walked out of the hut, but not before placing the black baseball cap from long ago on his head.
What they didn't see, was in the shadows, lay a man with a maniac smile.
"Kagome, I've let you live this long without pain, but not for long...not for long..."
