Disclaimer: Me no ownie Inuyasha.

A/N- I made a huge mistake in my last chapter and I really don't feel like fixing them I had them find out Inuyasha's name with out him saying anything in chap 1 and in chap 2 I think I forgot to have him say his name. It messed up my plan for this chapter. Sorry for being so slow, seven months is way to long. I'm really sorry. Oh now try and find the Kill Bill reference. It's lame but still there. Thank you to Fire who reviewed last chapter. Hope you're still reading. I'm trying to get back to updating again, but the next one won't happen until I finish two more chapters of Homecoming court. I'll try to get them done fast, cause I really want to work on this story.

Broken Road

Chapter 3Awakening

I woke up in a bed. At first it felt normal, the sun fell in streaks across my face. I thought I was in my dorm. I looked to my right and instead of the usual klepto roommate either looking through my cds or using my shampoo, from my bag may I add, I saw nothing but more bed. I moved my foot to make sure I wasn't seeing things. When it didn't fall off the small bed I figured I wasn't in my dorm. I sat up in a confused haze. Only one thought running through my head.

Where the hell am I?

I moved the sheets back and put my feet on the ground. I felt really dirty since I was still in my own clothes. You know that feeling when you sleep in your clothes and it feels like they've sunken inside of your skin and they are burning you. I hate that feeling. I stood up and scanned the room. It was huge. The bed I just inhabited looked king sized. There was a full sized burgundy velvet couch by a fireplace beside a loveseat, Along with a Mahogany wood piano in the other corner. I gasped when she saw in and walked over to it and lifted the heavy wood cover over the keys. I sat on the bench and hit a key. It chimed beautifully I couldn't stop grinning. Wherever I was it really didn't matter this was beautiful. From the piano bench I spotted the bathroom. I went toward it and turned the latch on the lock. I turned the water on and disrobed. The water calmed my running head. I was starting to remember the last night's events. I remembered Sango and Inuyasha and the car. Oh my poor little car. I shot someone. They died because of me. I rested my head on the wall of the shower. The hot water felt good. I washed my hair with the expensive shampoo sitting in the shower caddy. I took the towel of the rack and returned to the room for my bag. I rifted through it and took out some of the clothes I packed last night. I returned to the bathroom so I could change. I stared at myself in the mirror and sighed. "What are you doing Kagome?" I asked myself.

Once I was dressed I was hesitant to leave the room. I had now idea where I was. So I sat on the couch in the room and laid my head on the arm. I closed my eyes and let out a sigh. The world disappears into a blackened abyss when you close your eyes. There was a knock at the door. I jerked and stayed quiet. I stayed still in my spot. After a few moments the door opened. Still I didn't move. I pretended to be asleep on the couch. Someone was standing above me; I heard them sigh. Then they walked away but didn't leave the room. Piano music flew to my ears. I shifted to my side and fluttered my eyes open. I saw the silver haired dude sitting on the piano bench.

"Who are you?" I asked softly not wanting to startle him. He didn't look over at me or stop playing. He seemed to not have heard me. It bugged me, but I said nothing. He was completely into his music. I'd never heard the melody, I wondered if he'd composed it. It was beautiful. It was desolate with a wavering hope in it. He didn't stop until it was over. Then he sighed and turned around to face me. I sat up waiting for him to answer me.

"Do you really want to know?" He asked his face was grave.

"Of course I want to know. Are you crazy or something? Should I be more concerned than I already am?" A smirk danced on his lips.

"My name is Inuyasha." He paused and he looked annoyed. "…Hanzo." He grimaced after he said the name.

"As in-"

"Yes and shut up." I lifted my eyebrows. Hanzo was a famous family who started a small chain of bed and breakfast's. They were small and elegant, or so I've heard. I've never stayed in one. To stay in one for one night equals my whole tuition for a semester. The family was very famous. His brother was a heartthrob to every young girl in the country. There were only rumor about Inuyasha. He was rarely photographed but scandals followed him supposedly. I stayed quiet.

"Where are we?" I finally asked timidly. He looked up surprised apparently he was expecting a different question.

"Oh my family's summer house. I'm waiting for a phone call. I'm really sorry about last night."

"It's okay." I don't know why I said it. He looked like he needed it.

"No. It's not fair you were trying to be nice and-" He stopped abruptly and sighed. "Sorry. Uh there's breakfast in the dining room if you're hungry."

"Thanks." I said meekly. I followed him out the door out to the stairs and the dining room was right beside the living room. Sango was sitting there stuffing her face. Inuyasha turned and went back upstairs after He showed me to the dining room. I watched him as he went up without a word.

"Hey." Sango said. Calmer than last night.

"Morning." I greeted. Sitting next to her. I poured myself a glass of orange juice. I felt kind of nauseous. I sipped it slowly.

"You okay?" She asked looking at me seriously.

"Yeah. I just feel kind of sick." Sango looked at me sympathetically.

"Do you know what happened last night? When we got here Inuyasha was talking to himself oddly before he knew I was awake."

"It was weird. This car shot into mine when we were on the freeway minus Inuyasha and then it started trying to ram the car. Inuyasha came out of nowhere. It was really scary." I sighed.

"Really. That's freaky. Do you think Inuyasha is dangerous?"

"I don't know. He seems sad. I feel sorry for him."

"Hmm. I think I should have thought this out a little more. I'm starting to regret leaving. It feels so pointless and childish."

"I don't know what to feel. I feel like there is nowhere I'm supposed to go. I just wanna scream and rip at my hair. Seems like the only reasonable response." Sango laughed and I joined her.

"My parents are probably really worried. I tried to use the phone in my room but it was disconnected." I lifted my eyebrows again.

"He said something to me about waiting for a phone call. I wonder if he'll even tell us what going on."

"I doubt it. He seems very secretive."

"He's a Hanzo he's probably used to it."

"Yeah. Probably." She sighed and then I sighed.

Inuyasha said it would be awhile before we could leave. I wandered around the house until I found a library. I walked in and was astonished by the sheer size. Books were pulled off the shelf and lay on the couches. There were thousands and thousands of books. A public library would shake in fear if it saw this library. I lay my hand against the spines of the books as I made my way through the rows. Most of the books were hardcover 1st editions. I couldn't believe it when I was holding a first edition of Shakespeare's Othello. My hand shook and I almost started crying. I sat in a plushy chair nestled in the back between several rows. I opened the book carefully so afraid I would harm it. The door slammed open. I froze. It was Inuyasha; he rushed over to the couch by the phone. He sat down and I heard him sigh.

From my spot he couldn't see me but I was still afraid to move. I clutched the book to my chest afraid to breath. The phone rang and he picked it up impatiently.

"About fucking time Toutosai, What can you tell me about Sesshomaru? – What the Fuck? I'm gonna marry every girl I run into now? Fucking bastard - He's gonna fucking die! – So I have to tote these ones around or Sesshomaru is gonna kill 'em? – This is ridiculous. I don't want the goddamn money. – Dammit you better fix this Toutosai. Or I'll kill you instead. – Shud up!" It was a very one-sided conversation. My mouth was dropped. I controlled my breathing. He got up and hit the wall. He slammed the door shut behind him. I got up and tried to quietly steal out of the room. He was leaning his head on the wall of the living room. When I passed him he lifted his head.

"Where'd you come from?" He asked glaring at me.

"I was looking for a bathroom. This house is too big." I mumbled. I'm a good liar most of the time.

"The other hall." He said without looking up again.

"Oh thanks." I said walking to the to the other hallway. And locked the door. That was a weird conversation I had just over heard. It really bugged me that I didn't know what was going on. I came back in the living room not knowing where else to go. Inuyasha was sitting on an armchair staring off. He looked pissed off. I started to back out of the room, but he jerked his head up when I got to the edge of the stairs.

"Hey can you tell Sango we're leaving in a little while?" He asked.

"Sure." I said running up the stairs. Sango had gone upstairs to take another nap. When I got to her room however she wasn't on the couch or the bed. I heard muffled sobs coming from the bathroom. I knocked on the door.

"Sango are you alright?" I called inside.

"Huh oh yeah I'm fine."

"Let me in."

"I'm on the toilet."

"No you're not. Let me in."

"Yes I am I'm taking a crap."

"No you're not."

"How would you know?"

"I'm psychic. Now let me in." She came to the door reluctantly and turned the latch. She opened the door a crack to let me in. When I pushed it open Sango was sitting on the floor leaning against the wall. I sat down next to her and hugged her. She was shaking uncontrollably with her sobs. I didn't ask her a single question I just stood by her as she cried. I knew she was suffering and there was nothing I could really do for her.

A/N- Again I'm really sorry about the 7 month wait. I hope the chapter was worth the wait. I absolutely love you if you're reading this. Review. The next chapter won't come out until I get two more chapters of Homecoming Court. I really want to work on this story so I hope it will be soon. Have a good summer.
