Chapter Sixteen

"In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit." The priest finished with Catholic gestures. "May his spirit flow freely through the heavens and his body own the soil in which it is buried." Roses then followed the eulogy, and lifelessly fell upon an Ebony Gold, Stainless Steel casket. Cries of sorrow echoed in the open air along with sighs of relief.

Too many had shown for the funeral of the Kingpin, too many loved ones in misery, and too many enemies ready for revenge. Now that the king had passed away the Reshinio family was supposedly weak, unprotected. No one suspected that Inuyasha was ready for such a responsibility, and so they doubted.

"I'm really sorry Inuyasha." Kagome said sadly, knowing his grief and wanting to share it.

"It's not a big deal. Besides he was old anyway." The young man retorted with venom icing his words. They had been far from the truth, but he didn't regret saying them. He hated pity, especially from a girl who was going through just as much pain as him.

"Hanging in there little brother?" Inquired Sesshomaru from behind. He was as emotionless as ever. Hiding his true feelings was his specialty, no one could do it like him.

"Half brother." With that Inuyasha turned from the sight of his dead father and made his way to the limo. On his heels were three of his older uncles. They wouldn't leave him alone, because to them he was still a little boy who needed their help. In their eyes he was broken and hurt, not able to care for himself.

Everyone knew that he was in grave danger, as was anyone close to him. He was a walking target to those foes of his fathers. Now he bared the burden of the Kingpin, the business, and ultimately the criminal world. There would be no more games, it was all work for him there on out. Inuyasha was a prisoner to his name.

"Get my wife and Miroku. I am ready to go." His order was short, but to the ears of his new 'servants' it was as a death threat. They scrambled quickly to do as he said, ignoring the protest of the Kagome.

"Let go of me! I can walk on my own!" Like a sack of rice, the girl was thrown over the shoulder of a strong man and was being hauled without consent to the vehicle. To insure her stability, he placed his large hand on her upper, back thigh. This action did not go unnoticed by Inuyasha.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?!" His tone was loud and harsh. Within seconds he was out of the limo and in front of the man, who had just been trying to follow his bosses demand.

"You told me to get her. She was giving me difficulties." Expecting his answer to be accepted without problems, he was immediately surprised to have a gun pointed in his face.

"I am not in the mood for this. Do you understand?" Inuyasha had a nine millimeter aimed just below the man' neck.

"Right boss. I got it." Gently he brought Kagome to her feet, making sure to keep his hands to himself in the process. In reward to his rudeness the girl slapped him. She was breathing heavily and holding her stomach in pain.

"Don't do it again." Kagome warned with a snarl. He had hurt her abdomen in the process of heaving her. After giving Inuyasha a glance of appreciation she walked to the car, spun on her heel to face them again and added, "I can't believe it. I had no idea I could walk five feet. It's amazing what one can accomplish."

"Are you being sarcastic?" Miroku asked stupidly before pushing Kagome into the backseat of the car.

"Looks like you will have you hands full." Commented an amused Sesshomaru. "Call me if you need anything." He offered while putting on his narrow sunglasses.

"Where will you be?" Inuyasha questioned distractedly, giving most of his concentration to the gun still in his hand.

"Oh, you know sleeping around...with your wife, the same old same old." As he had suspected Inuyasha swiftly brought the weapon to his older brother's face, and then lowered again.

"Yeah whatever I'll see you around." Waving and nodding to the rest of the family, he left for his house.

Without asking Kagome, Inuyasha had decided that they would sleep in separate rooms. He chose this the day that they were married. At first she didn't understand, but she soon had figured that he didn't want to share anything with her except for a last name. That was fine with her, although she found herself a little disappointed, yet she didn't know why.

It had been four days since the wedding, and Inuyasha had ignored her as much as possible. The only times he did ever acknowledged her was when he and Miroku were hungry. It wasn't a problem for her to cook for the three of them. In actuality it was almost a pleasure, considering she had nothing better to do.

The only company she had was Miroku and he very polite to her and kept her from being too lonely. She called her mother once a day, but they kept their conversations short, in case of phone line tapping.

Kagome was aching for her school peers, but mostly those who had been closer to her. Like Sango, tough and violent Sango. Or Rin, poor, sad Rin. Even Melissa, the silly yet popular girl who had gnawed her way into the circle of three. They were her best friends, her only friends, and she needed them now more than ever.

(ok i am sorry if that was confusing...or this...what happened was i was explaining stuff that had happened and they hadn't gotten back home yet...so here is when they do get back.)

When they arrived back home it was late. Kagome made dinner and they ate it in silence. She excused herself early from the table and went up to her isolated room. Behind her she shut the door and fell against it. Letting herself fall to the floor, Kagome cried. She cried bitter and forlorn tears fall. There in her mourning she fell asleep, welcoming the nightmares more than reality.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"You shouldn't be so cold to her Inuyasha." Miroku stated bluntly. He was tired of his friend's attitude towards the girl.

"It's none of your business. Just be thankful that you can stay here." Inuyasha replied quietly, almost lightly. His mind was elsewhere. It was upstairs in a certain room, with a certain woman. His wife.

"It is my business! She is my family now too, you know? She hasn't done anything to you! Nothing! There is no reason to ignore her like you do!" Rage corded through Miroku's voice.

"Have you ever looked at her face?! That is what she did to me!" Abruptly Inuyasha stood and raced outside, into the backyard.

Slowly his cousin went out to him, a grim expression on his young face. "I know who she looks like, but you can't blame her for that. She is just a girl, not a murderer."

The next morning Kagome woke with a crick in her neck and the sun blaring at her face. Blinded she raised her hand to cover her eyes. Gazing around the room, her eyes caught the time off the alarm clock. It was six eighteen and the men weren't due to wake up for another four hours.

Kagome let herself think wistful things. Things like talking to her friends again, and visiting the. Things that were never going to come true. "Not in this lifetime at least." Just as she spoke those words to herself an idea came to her mind.

While the boys slept she could call up her friends. She wouldn't talk long, but just enough to hear their voices and get some peace. To Kagome it was a perfect plan, nothing could possibly go wrong, because the guys were so tired.

Like a ghost, she glided down the hall, then the stairs, and through the living room. She reached the phone before checking around her for witnesses. With a smile on her face, Kagome dialed the area code, then the number, and at last the extension to the girls' dorm.

'Rio Lindo girl's dorm, Hye Sun speaking, how may I help you?'

"Hye Sun can you get Sango for me?" She requested in a whisper.

'Yeah, I think, hold on.'

Minutes later another familiar voice answered the phone.

"Sango its me." Kagome notified her friend happily.

'Kagome?' Sango paused on the line and then began again. 'Kagome where have you been? We have been so worried. Say hi to Rin too.' She handed off the phone. 'Kagome? It's Rin.'

"Hey Rin how are you?" A tear came down Kagome's cheek as she listened to her little friend.

'I'm fine what about you? Why didn't you call us? The cops wouldn't leave us alone. They said you killed Hojo. You didn't did you?"

"Of course I didn't. You won't believe what happened." A click on the other line told Kagome that someone else was listening to their conversation. "Who is on this line Rin?"

'It's just me don't worry. I went into the phone room.' Sango answered. 'So what happened?'

Kagome told the story, leaving hardly any details out. She hadn't expected she would have spilled everything like that. She spent almost an hour on the phone, and for the first time in so long she smiled. It felt so good to get the whole lot off her chest.

'That is so crazy.' Rin said in awe.

"Tell me about it. By the way where is Melissa? I wanted to talk to her too."

'Koen invited her to go to some football game for the weekend in San Francisco, or something like that.' Sango retorted. 'I want to kill that Inuyasha guy.'

"Don't we all, but-"

"Get off that phone right now!" Speaking of the devil, Kagome's new husband bounded on her. He grabbed her wrist and snatched the phone, ruthlessly he shoved the girl to the ground before yelling into the phone. "Who the hell is this?!"

(wouldn't it be so harsh if I left you there? Hmmm everyone tells me to be different...and I have seen authors do this exact same thing, but keep going so I am going to be unique.)

THE END!!! Until the next chapter at least.
