I changed the ages around cuz i decided that they were too old cause i want more writing time! SO i decided to make them 12 instead of 15!

They arrived at Kagome's house a little after five and InuYasha ran towards the phone, not that he knew where it was...he just kinda...found it on his first time. He picked it up and dialed his home phone number, praying silently that Sesshomaru would pick up. Finally when he did he told him that he was staying with Kagome for the night.

"And you did not think to tell me this this morning?" Sesshomaru hissed through the phone. "I didn't know this morning dumb ass" InuYasha pointed out obviously. "What are you going to where tomorrow?" Sesshomaru asked. "I'll just put these clothes back on" he said looking down at his clothes. "Whatever. But let me tell you you'll regret this!" Sesshomaru hissed again, throwing the phone down on the receiver. He walked over to the sofa and layed down. "Why did they have to die and leave me with this worthless piece of trash?" he wondered aloud.

"Are you allowed to stay?" Kagome asked him. "Yeah" InuYasha told her, leaving out the part that he was going to regret this tomorrow. "Great!" Kagome said, grabbing his wrist and pulling him upstairs to her bedroom, which she had cleaned since her little incident with her father, but the blood would not manage to come off of the closet door. "Kagome, is that where your father wrote that stuff that you told me about?" he asked. Kagome nodded and began digging for something underneath her bed, then pulled it out.

"This is my favorite game" she said to him, showing him the game which was clue. "You pick who you wanna be" she ordered, shoving the cards toward him. He chose to be the mustard guy because he looked comical in a way that he could make fun of and give him and Kagome a good laugh. They played the game for hours until Kagome heard the front door slam. Her father must be home, which meant that her step mother had come home a couple hours ago at least.

She pressed her finger against her mouth, telling InuYasha to be quiet as he was still making jokes and she went to listen under the door at what they were saying. They both heard this time.

"Can't stand ya! You worthless slave of a woman! That's all you are is my slave" her father said to her step mother. "I aint no friggen slave of yours" her step mother yelled back at him, slapping him across the face both Kagome and InuYasha heard the smack. "WENCH" her father yelled and they knew that something was wrong. Then they heard another smack and was sure that Kagome's father had punched her step mother.

She and InuYasha sat on the bed listening until Kagome heard her fathers footsteps coming up the stairs toward her bedroom. She held InuYasha's hand and squeazed it in fear. He squeazed back for a comforting motion which made her feel a little better but she was still scared out of her mind. Her father was now running down the hallway and opened the door to her bedroom and saw his daughter with a strange looking boy who looked exactly like...a hanyou? How dare his own daughter bring a half demon in the house! It was suppoed to be a safe zone!

"You little blood traitor" he snarled, looking his daughter in the eye and putting on a nasty face that made Kagome's skin crawl. "You filthy traitor! WHAT RIGHT DO YOU HAVE TO BE BRINGING FILTHY VIRMIN LIKE THAT IN OUR HOUSE?" he yelled, slapping her across the face and causing her to slam into the wall.

InuYasha stood up and punched her father making him land on the wall oposite Kagome. "How dare you hurt my friend like that!" he hissed, his face in an insanely dangerous expression. "How do you hurt your own daughter like that!" he yelled, punching him again. Then he caught an eery glow from the mans chest...kind of pinkish and weird looking. The man stood up, unharmed and punched InuYasha so that he landed beside Kagome. He then began kicking the two of them until neither could get up. Then he lifted InuYasha into the air and carried him to the front door. "Never come into my house again you stupid half breed! You're wrong if you think anyone in this world gives a crap about you" the man yelled, receiving a blow of spit in his eye and throwing the hanyou into a puddle outside.

He then walked back upstairs to his daughter and continued his beeting, throwing her into desks and bed corners and things, then making her fall on the open box of glass that she had gathered, all stabbing into the back of her and fourcing her to gag. This was more then the 12 year old girl could take. She screamed and felt her back and then looked at the blood on her hand. She screamed more then ever and her father finally left het alone, seeing that he had done a good job on her punishment.

Later that night Kagome sat in the bathroom picking the glass out of her skin with great difficulty. After she had managed to get every last piece out she poured poroxide down her back and somehow managed to rub cream down her back (it isn't that hard, I can do it). Then she walked off to bed and layed on her stomach finsing the pain in her back unbearable.

The 12 year old boy walked down the street, not wanting to go home in fear of what might happen to him when he did. He knew he was going to be hurt but he didn't know if he would make it through the night. Then he wondered if Kagome was ok. He supposed that he would have to see at school tomorrow...if he could get to school after what was coming.

He opened the door to his home and saw Sesshomaru laying on the couch and tried to creep up the stairs to his bedroom but thatnks to his youkai hearing Sesshomaru heard him. "Why are you hear?" he asked. "I came home because I...was thrown out of Kagome's house by her father. She was being abused Sesshomaru! We need to call the police! She could be in pain!" he cried, not caring that Sesshomaru himself was abusive.

"I'll show you what pain is" he yelled, punching InuYasha so that once again he fell into the wall, but sticking out of the wall was a long nail which peirced the his back, going straight under his heart. His eyes grew wide and he let out a scream of pain. He saw people outside looking questioningly at the house but he didn't care, he was in extreme pain. He felt the blood falling down his back and a tear fell from his eye but Sesshomaru didn't care how much pain he was already in, he just kept on going. "You weakling. I could have taken that! It doesn't even hurt!" he said. "You're only faking it so I stop! Well I'm not that stupid" he yelled, again slashing him with his claws on his face, arms, legs and stomach. InuYasha just sat and took the abuse with great difficulty. He scrunched up his eyes in pain and let out screams but as hard as he tried he couldn't move just yet.

Sesshomaru punched, kick, and slashed him with every ounce of strength that he could, then came to a stop. "I'm growing tired of this. You are free to go, I am going to sleep" he said, walking downstairs to his bedroom. InuYasha walked to his bedroom in the attic and layed on his hard bed. He felt his back to be sure that the nail wasn't still there, then he tried to go to sleep but the phone rang. His eyes grew to the size of soccer balls as he reached for the phone before it could bother Sesshomaru. "Hello?" he answered with a bit of difficulty in his speech.

"Hey InuYasha. You wanna come hang out? Play some soccer with me and some of the guys?" Miroku asked, having not seen his friend for a while since this new girl came to school. "No. I can't" he said, panting a lot. "What's wrong man? You sound...hurt? Did something happen I should know about?" he asked. "But out Miroku" InuYasha said, not in the mood to tell him anything. "I'm worried InuYasha, you've been coming to school with injuries every day and I need to know why! Since grade...4 i've been wondering this! Since I met you! Tell me now!" he ordered.

"No! You wouldn't understand! You wouldn't understand anything! Just stop asking me" he shouted into the phone. "Tell me and I will" Miroku shouted back. "No! I won't tell you so you can just forget about it!" he shouted again, throwing the phone back down. He layed in his bed all night not falling asleep, in his bloody clothes until once again his alarm clock rang and he was forced to get up and get dressed into some clean clothes.

He wore a black shirt and blue jeans with chains on them, brushed his long silver hair and walked out the door without eating. He still didn't have an apetite. He saw Kagome walking a little ahead of him and called to her, she turned around and ran to him, hugging him and crying. "I'm so sorry about my father! That was so...I'm just so sorry you had to go through that" she cried. InuYasha looked her over, she didn't have too many serious cuts. Just a couple on her arms but lots of bruises. "Are you ok?" he asked her concerned. "Yeah I am..." she said. Then she looked at him and saw his cuts, noticing them for the first time that day.

"Did Sesshomaru hurt you again? Are you ok?" she asked. He nodded. "I'm ok, I just don't think I can play in gym class" he said, showing her the cuts on his legs. "I'll just say I forgot my gym clothes" he said, shrugging. "So what about you? What happened after I left?" he asked. She told him about everything and then it was his turn to tell her about what had happened to him.

"I think we can agree that that was the worst night of our lives" she said to him, he nodded. They walked into the school tomorrow and took their seats beside each other. InuYasha looked towards Miroku who took in his wounds and then scowled at him, then looked away. Kagome wrote a note and then passed it to InuYasha. He read what it said: what's going on with you and Miroku?

He wrote back: He was asking too many questions last night so I told him off. He's mad. Kagome read it and nodded. It seemed like Miroku only cared around his friend but she didn't bother to point this out. She quickly forgot about the stupid friend to friend fight and thought about inviting InuYasha to spend the afternoon with her in the park. She wrote a note to him asking about this. He got the note and quickly accepted. Anything would be better then going home to Sesshomaru, especially spending time with his best friend.

That afternoon Kagome and InuYasha walked in the park under the beautiful autumn sun, not noticing that it was going down. Kagome was first to point this out. "It's getting dark" she whispered. "Yeah. Wanna stay out and watch the stars?" he asked her. Kagome felt like she was on a date...but then remembered that she was too young to date...but that was beside the point. They layed next to each other on the grass silently watching the stars and every now and then InuYasha would point out a shooting star and Kagome would smile at him. When she smiled he could feel the warmth of her happiness which always brightened his mood. When she was happy he felt loved as if for the first time, which it was. No. That wasn't true. It wasn't the first time. His mother had always loved him. That is...before she died that fateful night 9 years ago on his birthday. That's why he always hated his birthdays and usually spent them by himself. He was never seen on the 21 of October and never would be. He had decided this a long time ago and kept his promise to himself. It was too painful to celebrate happy things on the day that his mother had died.

"You remind me so much of somebody I used to know" Kagome said, interupting his thoughts. "A little hanyou boy a lot like you. We met in preschool a little before his birthday...I never saw him again after he turned 5 though" she said. "Yeah...that's weird cause you remind me of a girl that I met in preschool and we only knew each other for a few days. This is a little embarassing but I thought about her every day after she left" he said. This made Kagome wonder. Could this be that same little boy that was her best friend so long ago? Maybe...

"InuYasha, how did your mother die?" she asked. "Oh...Uhm...it was my fifth birthday and I invited my friend over to my house and we ended up waiting hours for her to get back". Kagome thought...yes...this must be him, she thought getting more excited by the minute. "Then I just got impatient and went to find her and I found her dying at the hands of the villagers. They came after me and my friend and...well..." he finished. "You wanna know about my friend?" she asked him. He nodded so she began.

"Well on his fifth birthday he invited me to his house and we ended up waiting for hours for his mom and he was just so stubborn that he had to go and find her and he found her being attacked by villagers which came after us and as he was fighting some of them I was taken away" she said, waiting for him to click in. "No way!" InuYasha said, rapping his arms around her and pulling her into a huge hug. "I thought I was never going to see you again!" he said, almost crying but thinking better of it. Kagome hugged him back crying into his shoulder. "InuYasha! I missed you so much!" she sobbed. "I missed you too Kagome" he said.

"But Kagome...what happened to you after that guy took you away?" he asked her curiously. "My grandfather found me and took me away to work as a slave for a long time. I worked daily serving him and constantly getting wipped. Nobody knjew my name. No one was allowed to. It was like being kidnapped. Until one day my father came and took me away. I was so happy until I found out that he was a drunk. He took me back home and I spent most of my time with my mom until he got jealous and killed her. He's been punishing me for loving her more then him. I loved them both the same it was just that I happened to spend more time with mother then father. The day before she died she gave me a porcelan doll...the one that he broke a couple of weeks ago. He's been hurting me ever since because I deserve it. It's my fault she's dead and it's my fault I get beaten every day" she cried into InuYasha's shoulder. "No it's not Kagome. You loved both of your parents. Your dad's just a jealous jerk that's all. He can't handle that his wife was better then he was" InuYasha comforted. "Thank you" Kagome said, but then gasped. "InuYasha, begind you" InuYasha's ears twitched as he heard footsteps behind him and then turned around to see what was happening. Sesshomaru stepped up behind him and hit him in the jaw, not causing serious injury, just pain.

"You think you can stay out here with your little girlfriend and not tell me huh? Get me worried like that you little piece of virmin! I'll teach you a lesson you won't forget in a hurry" he yelled, punching him again and bruising and re opening his cut cheek, blood pouring down his face. Kagome was helpless to do anything but wait until it was over. But no...she wasn't. She could go for help. She ran next door and begged to use the phone, and dialed 911, sending the police over. She ran back across the street to make sure InuYasha was still alive.

"No! Sesshomaru! Please stop! STOP! I didn't meen it! I won't do it again! I'm sorry! So sorry!" he yelled, tears streaming down his face and stinging the many deep gashes in his face and mixing in witht he blood which dribbled down his front. "I've hand enough of your whining" Sesshomaru yelled taking out his claws and slashing the hanyou across the stomach, making him caugh blood and then punching him in the temple so that he was knocked unconcious.

InuYasha's POV

The pain was unbearable and yet all he could do was endure it. There was no escape from the contant pain and abuse of his older brother. He just had to take it. Then he felt the deep gash in his stomach and as the claws scraped the back of his stomach, he felt the blood pour out of his mouth and onto the ground. Then he felt a sharp pain in his temple and he was falling into a pieceful world of darkness. Free from pain, worry, heartbrake and suffering. He was free...

Normal POV

Kagome watched this happening in horror and then saw InuYasha hit the ground. This was far worse then any of the beatings she had ever endured. "INUYASHA" she yelled as he fell into his world of piece. She ran over towards her friends body. "PLEASE! PLEASE BE ALIVE! DON'T DIE INUYASHA! PLEASE! TELL ME YOU'RE OK!" she yelled. She looked down in InuYasha face and wiped away the blood on his cheeks. His cheeks were so soft and sweet and warm. Having him in her arms made her feel loved again...but this wa sno time for that. Her friend was dying. Then she heard the sound of sirens as the Police arrived alongside an ambulance...Could InuYasha be saved?
