~~~Morning~~~

~*~*~Souta's Room~*~*~

~~~Kagome's POV~~~

I tiptoed across Souta's room and bit back a giggle.

I already showered but still had on my nightclothes.

(Her mom didn't buy her new ones yet and 12 hrs have passed so she can wet it)

Okaa-san went out to get in touch with her old friends and jii-san was out with his friends; they won't be back until Sunday night.

Souta was still sleeping and it was already 9:00.

I leaned over and cupped my hand next to my cheek, as if to try to amplify the sound.

"OHAYO SOUTA~!" I shouted.

I giggled as Souta fell off his bed, taking his blankets down with him.

"Haha." Souta said. "That wasn't funny."

"Yes it was." I gasped through my fits of laughter. I regained myself and wiped off a tear and sighed. "It's 9:00. Yuri called earlier and said that we're going to crash a party and to wear something appropriate. Someone will pick us up at 9 PM. How she got our number, I have no idea. It's kinda freaky."

"Yea yea." Souta said and waved me off. "I'm gonna shower."

"I'll make you something for breakfast. Nah. you can just have a granola bar or something."

"Kagome-nee-chan." Souta whined.

"Alright alright." I said. "I'll make you some eggs and sauage."

"Arigatou."

"Yea yea. Whatever." I said and headed downstairs.

~~~Later~~~

~*~*~Kitchen~*~*~

Souta came downstairs and sniffed the aroma of the air.

"Smells good." He commented.

"Of course it does." I said. "It's my wonderful cooking."

I handed him his plate and went upstairs to pick out an outfit for later.

'Gah. I'm not really good with this kind of stuff. Maybe I'll call Sango.'

I ran over to the phone in my room (it's purple and see through) and called Sango.

"Moshi moshi-." Sango started.

"Sango?" I asked.

"Uh- yea."

"Can you come over to help me for tonight. Please~."

"Eh?"

"Put together my outfit and stuff like that."

"Oh. so you know what's gonna happen?"

"Hai. I'll tell you about it when you come. We can just shop and stuff then. You can sleep over if you want."

"Alright. I'll tell my dad and then I'll be over around 12."

"Okay."

I hung up and put the phone on its cradle.

I sighed and changed into black jeans capris with coppery yellow thread and a black belt with a silver buckle. The top was a white t-shirt with a cute chibi girl on it with brown hair and a Chinese white and brown traditional dress and her back view on the back that I got from Forever21. (It's so cute. My friend Carrie has it and I want it so badly) I put twisted my hair into a messy bun and put on a silver anklet. I grabbed a denim handbag (Guess) and put in my purse, lip gloss, etc.

I walked downstairs and saw Souta playing video games.

I sweatdropped.

"How many game counsels do you have?" I asked. He was playing with a PS2 and in a cabinet behind him there was a M64, PS1, X-box, and etc.

"Shh!" Souta hissed. "Must concentrate."

"Mou. I'm just asking." I went into the kitchen and poured myself a bottle of water.

"I'm gonna go out with Sango at 12, okay?" I said as I made my way to the living room.

"Hn." Souta replied.

I sat on the sofa and watched him play. It was a basketball game and his players were running around and doing all sorts of stuff.

"Why is the court so small?" I asked.

"It's Street." He replied.

"Oh." I looked at the players and saw this very tall Japanese guy humping around.

"Why is he so tall?"

"Oh.. Takashi? He's 7'. I dunno.. I made him like that." Souta replied.

"Okay."

"Wanna play?"

"No."

"Why not? It's fun. You know you wanna."

"Arg. Fine."

~~~Later. 11:57~~~

"Oh yea!" I screamed and did a little victory dance. "I beat you like 12 times and you only beat me once!"

"Beginners luck." Souta grumbled.

(hehe.. I played Street w/ my brother cuz he forced me 2 and I beat him every single time!)

"Oh. It's 11:57. Gotta go." I said. I grabbed my handbag, put on black sandals, and ran out the door. "Ja ne!"

"Ja!" I heard Souta say from the living room.

I breathed in the air and walked down the shrine steps. I took out my foundation and looked in the mirror to make sure that the tattoos didn't show.

Satisfied, I sat on the bottom one and waited for Sango.

~~~12~~~

I saw Sango coming toward the house. She wore a tight black t-shirt with gray Chinese words going down the sides and dark blue sandblasted jeans. She had on white uptowns and a tommy hilfiger bag with the strap coming across her front. Her hair was up in its usual high ponytail with a black hair tying thingy.

(what are those called? Its not a scrunchie cuz scrunchies are those big things.. its not a rubber band cuz its not made out of rubber.. its not an elastic band cuz its not made out of elastic.. hmm..)

"Hey Sango-chan!" I called as I got up and waved.

"Hey." She greeted. She walked up to me and we linked arms and headed for the mall.

(it is not gay.. I do that with my friends all the time.)

"Hm.. Where should we go first?" I asked.

"Anywhere with clothes." Sango answered. "We have to buy you new outfits and stuff for tonight."

I sweatdropped.

"What about you?" I asked. She broke out of her gaze and answered me quickly.

"I'm sure we'll have time for that."

"O-kay."

~*~*~Mall~*~*~

"Come on Gome-chan!" Sango said.

"I'm coming." I grumbled as I trudged after her.

Sure, I love shopping but Sango is a little. extreme. We've been running from store to store to find clothes, accessories, make-up. you know, the works.

"Can't we rest?" I asked. "Come on. The food court is right over there. I'm hungry."

"Fine." Sango huffed and brought her shopping bags over to a table.

"Arigatou." I said and sighed in relief. I found some newly found energy and hefted my shopping bags over to Sango.

I sat down and wiped some sweat off my brow.

"I'll go get the food." Sango stated. "What do you want?"

"A Crispy Chicken Caesar Salad and a bottle of water." I stated. (I luv those.) I handed Sango the money and watched her leave.

~~~Inuyasha's POV~~~

"Isn't that Kagome?" Miroku asked. I turned my head to where he was pointing to and saw Kagome sitting on a table in the food court.

I smirked a grunted.

"Yea." I answered. "So what?"

"Ah.." Miroku said. "Don't you wonder why she's here?"

"To shop you dumbass." I said bluntly and headed away.

"Exactly." Miroku said. "And that means she brought a friend. That means Sango's here. I'll be back later."

He stalked away and I sighed in frustration.

"Stupid perverts." I grumbled.

I started walking away but I turned around to glimpse at Kagome.

'It's not supposed to be like this. Kuso! What was I thinking to stoop so low. beat a kid for information. BAKA!'

~~~Kagome's POV~~~

~~~On the Way Home~~~

We did a lot more shopping after lunch. How much? Let's just say that I don't have to go shopping for the rest of the year and probably longer.

Miroku came over to grope Sango. Gosh how much he changed..

I want to hate him so much.. But I can't.

He apologized like a hundred times. but Inuyasha.. GRrr.

We are enemies.. What happened? Why is he so different?

I just don't know anymore.

No.. no. why am I being sympathetic? I hate him.. I HATE HIM!

But. why do I get this feeling inside me that I don't want him too hate me?

(I would hate him 2 if he beat up my little bro. but I made Miroku get off the hook way to easily.. But Kagome is like that.. Forgiving.. but she's stubborn too so she's not forgiving Inuyasha until he actually says he's sorry and tries to make her forgive him)

~*~*~Kagome's House~*~*~

~~~8:40~~~

"Done." Sango said as she put the last of the blush on my cheeks.

'Finally.'

I took a few steps back and eyed myself on the mirror.

(The one in her room on that dresser thingy. I don't know what they're called.)

And hey, I don't want to flatter myself but I looked pretty good.

Sango picked out my outfit and I only objected if I thought it was too short or too revealing.

Sango wanted me too put on a mini skirt but I told her that we might fight or something and I was really uncomfortable fighting in that.. that.. thing.. It looked like a really wide belt! Seriously! What kind of people wear that?? Well, anyways. she picked out many many more outfits before she threatened me to wear something or she'll pound me to death. Normally, I wouldn't feel threatened but she was glaring me with those. ieyes/i . and flames seemed to encircle her.

Anyways. I'm getting off subject..

I wore swishy black capris and a tight white tube-top. I thought it was too revealing so I got to wear a black windbreaker with gray (its one of those speacial materials that looks white in the dark. you know.. that things so that ppl will see you in the dark and won't run over you with their car) lining over it. I wore white and black puma sneakers (luv those almost as much as nikes) and a small black bag with the strap going across my front. I put my hair up in a low ponytail with a black hair tying thingy with a few of my bangs coming out in front.

My makeup was really faint but you could tell that I was wearing some. The lipgloss made my lips a really sheer pink and a bit shimmery. The blush was faint and looked natural. I had on light brown eyeshadow that was barely visible. No mascara, it looks ugly especially when it runs and the waterproof ones make my eyelashes to hard.

I left the pink tattoos for everyone too see. I was afraid that they might say something and I didn't want to start anything.

I nodded and put on a black fisherman hat with the same lining on my windbreaker circling it on the rim.

"Arigatou Sango-chan." I said and hugged her briefly.

"No problem Gome-chan." Sango replied. "Now we have to go check up on Souta."

"Hai."

"Oh and wear these." Sango said and handed me two white gold loop earrings with fake diamonds on the front side.

(hehe.. I have those.)

"Why?"

"They're special." Sango answered. "There's a tiny camera on one of the diamonds on each earring. Now I can see what you see and I don't have to be bored while I wait for you to come back! I hooked it up to you're TV already."

"Where did you get these Mrs. Spy?" I asked her.

"I nagged them off Miroku." Sango answered plainly.

"Eh." I laughed nervously and sweatdropped.

'Why in the world does he need those?'

(I'll let you ppl decide.. don't get 2 perverted..ew.. What are you thinking?,.. he uses them too spy on the other gang. they have spies too you know)

~*~*~Souta's Room~*~*~

I opened the door while I talked to Sango about tonight.

Everything seemed to freeze and we all sweatdropped.

Souta was midway putting on a dark navy shirt and his baggy black pants showed a bit of his blue boxers. wait a second.. are those little hearts?

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Souta hollered and bombarded us with pillows.

"Gomen gomen." Sango said and went into the living room.

"You don't have to be embarrassed Souta." I said and muffled a giggle.

"I guess you're right." Souta said and continued to put on his shirt.

"I'm sure that many other people have boxers with little tiny hearts on them." I blurted and ran downstairs.

"KAGOME-NEE-CHAN!!!!" Souta yelled from upstairs and chased me to the living room.

I turned around and made a face.

Souta was ready too lunge at me when the doorbell rang.

"Haha Souta!" I said and made my way to the door.

"You're really lucky Kagome-nee-chan." Souta grumbled.

~*~*~Car~*~*~

We got into the back seat of the car and sat down.

(I'm not good with cars.. make it whatever you want.. the person picking them up is a 2 green stripes person.he's not important)

"What exactly do we do?" I asked in a hushed voice so that the driver wouldn't hear me.

"We usually fight." Souta answered and shrugged. "Just listen to Yuri or Sesshoumaru or Kazuya."

"Okay." I said and looked out the window for the rest of the ride.

~*~*~Destination~*~*~

(I'm not sure where it should take place. They're too young for bars and stuff but lets make it that they rented a room in a restaurant... You know.. some people do that at weddings and stuff.)

I tugged my hat really low as I got out of the car. You couldn't see my eyes or the bridge of my nose because of the hat rim and shadow it made.

(You can still see the earrings.)

We followed the driver to the entrance and went into a room. Everyone else was there. I recognized Yuri (red halter top, black mini skirt w/ black short shorts underneath), Sesshoumaru (black muscle shirt, baggy jeans), Kazuya (dark blue t-shirt, baggy black pants), Jin (white undershirt w/ blue and shite flannel shirt over. Black pants), Gen (dark green t-shirt, baggy jeans), and that Jaken person (do you really want to know what he's wearing?).

"Settle down kiddies." Kazuya said. Everyone hushed down and looked at Kazuya.

"Okay. Slip in unnoticed okay? We don't want to have another 'incident' like last time." Kazuya said and everyone turned two a bunch of orange stripes.

"Anyways," Kazuya continued. "Just blend in. dance, do whatever. It'll be dark so nobody will see your tattoos. You'll know when to start. Alright."

"Make us proud." He said mockingly and saluted with two fingers.

There was faint laughter in the room and few by few, people went to the large room with loud music blaring from inside.

I gulped and pulled my hat down even lower.

~*~*~Room w/ Party~*~*~

I slipped in after Souta but I lost track of him after a few seconds.

It was dark with blue and white lights flashing every second. The music was really loud and there was artificial fog on the floor. There was drinks and food to the sides. no doubt alcohol. I stepped toward the dance floor and someone grabbed my hand.

"Come on." He said. "Let's dance."

I looked up at him and saw Jin with his 'I-know-I'm-hot' smirk. I felt like stepping away but I decided against that.

'Don't want to blow my cover.'

He grabbed my waist from behind and started to rock to the blaring music. I closed my eyes and just followed. I didn't go dancing (/clubbing) since my delinquent friend in America forced me to. And that was half a year ago.

I closed my eyes and let the music flow.

I didn't really feel it when Jin let go and someone else took his place.

'Warm.'

I snuggled into him and continued to dance.

~~~Author's POV~~~

'Where's Kagome.' Souta thought as he looked around by the beverage stands.

He looked around and saw he lining on her windbreaker moving around.

'There she is.. Wait a sec. Who's she dancing with..'

Souta squinted and saw flashes of long white hair.

'Is that. Sesshoumaru?!'

(DUN DUN DUN!)

~~~Kagome's POV~~~

I turned my head a bit to look at Jin.

'What the heck? White hair?' I turned around fully and saw Sesshoumaru with that.. 'look.'

"What the heck are you doing?" I hissed lowly.

"Nuh uh uh." He said. "Don't want to look suspicious do you?"

I grumbled as he wrapped his arms around me.

"When is it starting?" I asked.

"Soon enough my dear." He answered. I gave him an odd look.

(O_o)

'My dear?'

"Ok." I said slowly.

Suddenly, the lights dimmed and I felt Sesshoumaru tug me toward the front of the room.

"What the hell?" someone said.

"Hey! Watch it."

"That was my foot?"

"Who turned off the lights?"

"Is this supposed to happen?"

The light turned on when someone punched another person.

I adjusted to the light and saw Sesshoumaru with a fist in the air and Inuyasha with a red cheek.

He rubbed his injury and spit out blood.

~~~Author's POV~~~

"WTF are you doing here Sesshoumaru?!" Inuyasha asked.

"My, my." Sesshoumaru replied. "Is that how you greet your half-brother."

"I'm not related to you, you bastard!" Inuyasha said as he swung at Sesshoumaru.

With that, the fight broke out. Some people that weren't in any gang panicked and ran out.

I looked around and saw that everyone else had their hands full.

I looked around for Souta and saw him fighting two guys at once.

(He was way out numbered last time. He can handle three people tops.)

I saw a girl with a red halter top and black pants creep up to Souta with a glass bottle.

That's when I turned into fighting mode.

(I know its corny but uh-oh. WARNING: Kagome will be acting.. uh.. different during fighting mode. There will be foul language here)

She was about to hit Souta I grabbed her by the hair and tossed the bottle aside.

Souta glanced at me and smirked.

'Thanks sis.'

I smirked back and turned to the offending girl. 'Oh goodie. My look alike.'

"What the hell do you think you're doing?" I asked her.

"Who the fuck are you?" Kikyo asked.

"Don't remember me?" I asked.

"How the hell should I? I can't even see half of your face."

"That's just too bad Kikyo."

(Sango filled her in on Kikyo's name.)

I swung at her and hit the side of her face. She spit out blood and glared.

"You'll pay for that b!tch."

"Bring it on."

She tried to slap me but I grabbed her hand and twisted it behind her back.

I elbowed her on the back and sent her sprawling on the floor.

"Pathetic."

I turned to walk away but she grabbed my ankle and I fell.

'What the-.'

She kicked me with the heel of her shoes. It wouldn't really be so bad if her heels weren't FIVE INCHES HIGH!

I groaned and grabbed her foot. Her shoe slipped off and I whacked her with it.

"Ah!" Kikyo shrieked. I cringed and chucked her shoe at her head. It bled a little and she was rendered unconscious.

"What the f*ck did you do b!tch?" a voice said.

'Well, well." I whispered.

I turned around sharply and knew that it was Inuyasha.

He swung at me but I dodged it.

"My, my Inuyasha. When did you start hitting girls." I said in a low voice.

"Shut up!"

He to me by surprise by punching me. It hurt like crazy! Itai.

He was about to hit me again but someone grabbed his fist. I turned and saw Sesshoumaru.

'Why-?'

"Your fight is with me." He stated.

I was shocked for a second as I saw them fight in front of me.

'Why did he do that?'

Sesshoumaru noticed that I was still there and turned to me and gave me a look that distinctly said 'GO!' I nodded and took a step back.

Inuyasha took this as a chance to punch Sesshoumaru.

"Who's the loser now." Inuyasha said and was about to kick Sesshoumaru but I punched him on the side of his face.

"What the f*ck wench!" he growled.

"LET'S GO!" Kazuya shouted. Sesshoumaru turned to leave. He grabbed my arm, seeing that I wouldn't be leaving anytime soon.

I turned my head sharply and my hat fell off. I grabbed it quickly but Inuyasha already saw me.

"Ka-kagome?" he asked, bewildered.

Sesshoumaru tugged and I ran out after him.

"Kagome!" Inuyasha called and chased after us.

~~~Outside~~~

Sesshoumaru dragged me over to his bike (motorcycle for those people who are wondering) and handed me a spare helmet as he got on. I put it on and was about to get on in back of him.

"Kagome!" Inuyasha cried.

I turned to him and tried to glare but it was hard.

"What!" I spat out as angrily as I could.

"Why? What are you doing with that-." Inuyasha asked.

"Shut up Inuyasha!" I said. "Surprised that little Kagome is up against you? Change comes with the passing of time and frankly, it took its toll on all of us. Especially you Inuyasha. I don't even feel like I know you anymore! I don't know what happened that made you so different while I was gone. I was hoping that we could catch up on everything but apparently, I'm a fool to think like that!"

"Let's go." Sesshoumaru said.

I flipped down the helmet visor (is that what it's called? The thingy that protects your face on the helmet.) and got on behind Sesshoumaru. I gripped his waist as he took off. leaving Inuyasha to stare after us.

I looked behind and let a single tear fall.

Sorry it took so long! I was trying to make the chapter EXTRA long for you people! R + R people!

Give me ideas and NO FLAMES!
