"Kagome Higurashi will be singing 'Gone' For us. Enjoy!"
Thus, Kagome wnet on the stage and grabbed the mircophone:
What you see's not what you get
With you there's just no measurement
No way to tell what's real from what isn't there
Your eyes they sparkle
That's all changed into lies that drop like acid rain
You washed away the best of me
You don't care
You know you did it
I'm gone
To find someone to live for
In this world
There's no light at the end of the tunnel tonight
Just a bridge that I gotta burn
You're wrong
If you think you can walk right through my door
That is just so you
Coming back when I've finally moved on
I'm already gone
Sometimes shattered
Never open
Nothing matters
When you're broken
That was me whenever I was with you
Always ending
Always over
Back and forth, up and down like a rollercoaster
I am breaking
That habit
Today
You know you did it
I'm gone
To find someone to live for
In this world
There's no light at the end of the tunnel tonight
Just a bridge that I gotta burn
You're wrong
If you think you can walk right through my door
That is just so you
Coming back when I've finally moved on
I'm already gone
There is nothing you can say
Sorry doesn't cut it, babe
Take the hint and walk away
'Cause I'm gone
Doesn't matter what you do
It's what you did that's hurting you
All I needed was the truth
Now I'm gone
She then pointed to Hojo and said "It's over."
Sango and Miroku were wide eyed, then they stood up and cheered as loud as they could. Hojo had a glare on his face and Kikyou stood there, just smiling because she had no idea what just happened. Inuyahsa was in the back row, speechless.
The day went on un-eventful as usual. At the very end of the day, Inuyasha and Kagome had an actual conversation. Sango and Miroku decided to leave the "future couple" alone. Just as they started to walk away they heard THAT VOICE.
"Inu-sweetie! Come here!" Kikyou threw her arms around Inuyasha.
"Kikyou..you are trying my patience.." 'Holy crap! Hojo is right there, flirting with Kagome while his GRILFRIEND can't get her hands off me! Those two are sex animals and don't care who they're with, just as long as they get into someones pants..'
Inuyasha roughly pushed Kikyou off and started to walk up to Kagome and Hojo. What he saw made his temper flare. He couldn't understand why he was feeling this for Kagome. Kagome was leaning aganist a tree, blushing and looking very uncomfortable. Hojo was stroking her cheek gently and whispering whatever he could say to lure Kagome in. Kagomes bangs suddenly covered her eyes and Inuyasha heard and saw everything that was going on.
"Kagome, I want you. I know you want me and you can't deny it." His hand started to move on her thigh and was stroking it softly "If I don't get what I want, I can be your worst nightmare." Kagomes bottom lip started to tremble and her bangs covered her eyes. She was about to give in when Inuyasha punched Hojo so hard in the mouth, Hojo fell over, almost passed out. Inuyasha was now standing protectivly(A/N I don't have spell check. Sorry) in front of Kagome.
"Bastard! I don't know what kind of game your playing, but if you ever come near Kagome again, I'll be your worst nightmare.." Inuyasha growled. Kikyou helped Hojo up and walked away.
"T-thanks Inuyasha..." Kagome studdered.
"Just be careful around him, alright?" Without needing an answer, Inuyasha walked away.
"Kagome, Miroku and Iwere going to help..but we figured Inuyasha had you covered" Sango winked and Kagome blushed. Kagome looked at her watch.
"Shit! You guys I have to go..to work now. I'll see you guys later!" Kagome was about to run off, but decided to stay and listen to the conversation with Sango and Miroku.
"Sango..please go out with me. Just one date. I really like you." Miroku pleaded.
"..Alright..but DO NOT try anything funny or I swear.." Sango threatened, blushing.
"Yes, I know. I'll see you on friday, My lovely Sango." Miroku said. Sango turned a bright redand started to walk away."Y-yeah..bye."
Kagome then walked over to Miroku and gently nudged him in the ribs. "Ha! I told you! All you had to do was ask her! Miroku, I always told you she likes you! Me and her are so close, that I would be able to tell if she likes you just by looking at her."
"Very funny Lady Kagome." Miroku then gently nudged her in the stomach and Kagome grabbed her stomach in pain, wincing slightly.
"Lady Kagome! I'm so sorry..are you alright?" Miroku inquired, worried.
"Yes..I'm..fine. Thanks.." Kagome then relaxed abit and stood up straight.
"Lady Kagome...Please, I know I'm perverted but don't take this in any sort of perverted way. I see you as my sister and if there is anything you ever need, I'm here for you, alright?" Miroku said, still very worried.
"Thank you Miroku. But I'm..fine. Now, I have to go. I..can't be late." Kagome said, putting on a fake smile and started to walk away.
"Goodbye..Kagome." (A/N Notice how Miroku called her just 'Kagome' rather than 'Lady Kagome?' That means hes getting more comfortable with her and everyones reletionships as friends or as couples are making progross. Moving on...)
'You can't hide behind that barrier forever, Kagome. Please..stay safe.' Miroku started to walk in the opposite direction towards his home.
AT KAGOME'S WORK PLACE, CLUB PLEASURE
Kagome, Laya and Kitty were taking their breaks outside in the back, just sitting around and talking. Laya and Kitty worked there for similar reasons as Kagome and thats why she liked them. Laya was a full wolf demon and Kitty was a full cat demon. (A/n Laya and Kitty are my friends from RL. But they fit perfectly in the story!) Laya was there because she always wanted to be a dancer and singer. When herparnets got abusive, she dropped out of high school and ran away. Now she lives in a 1 bedroom apartment and works at Club Pleasure as a dancer. She has adopted a child and her child was home-schooled and works an internship at a radio station. (A/N I can't tell you her childs name yet. :P) Her passion was singing, but she had no collage degree, so this is where she worked. Kitty was a different story completly. Her family was killed when she was a child. Her mother was in the ICU, but shes been in a coma for years and Kitty lost hope a while ago. She loved to dance and she ABSOLUTITY loved attention. (A/N No, Kitty is NOT stuck up. Shes the nicest person I've ever meet.) She worked there as a stripper. Kagome worked as a waitress and ONLY a waitress. Its bad enough to wear those skimpy outfits, she wasn't going to be giving lapdances with that. As much as they hated to admit it, the got VERY good pay there. Everynight, they got about $100 in tips plus their monthly salary. Laya had black hair and blue eyes while Kitty had light brown hair andhazel eyes. That was what they looked like in their human form. (A/N Their demon forms will be told later in the story.)Laya was around the age of 20 while Kitty was the same age as Kagome.
"Kagome..Kitty I feel so bad for you guys. Your only children and you shouldn't have to grow up this way." Laya said to Kagome and Kitty.
"You did." They said at the same time, giggling.
"So, anyone have any good news? We only have 5 more minutes left of break. Kitty, your mom better yet? Kagome, got a new guy?" Laya asked.
"Nope, shes still the same" Kitty stated sorrowful.
"Well.." Kagome blushes and Kitty and Laya suddenly looked at her with wide eyes and grins, waiting for the details, " Theres this guy I like..hes saved me from a total pervert and he helped me when I got hurt. Hes name is Inuyasha."
Kagome blushed even brighter when she saw their faces. Laya and Kitty suddenly glomped(A/N Glomp is a tackle/hug.) Kagome and started to tease her saying things like:
"Kagome has a new guy! Ohhh!"
"Maybe they'll get married!"
"I'll finally be a godmother!"
"Guys get off me! Break is over!" Kagome yelled giggling as she pushed them off. They all sighed and walked back inside. Kagome started to take some guys orders as some drunk pervert guygropedher to get her attention.
"How may I help you, sir?" Kagome put on a fake smile as she talked.
"I want you.." The man slurred his words.
"S-sir..I'm sorry..thats not my job.." Kagome stated frightened. The man then suddenly got up and started to pull her to one of the "Private Rooms". Kagome struggled the whole way but the man pushed her onto the bed and started to kiss her.
ELSEWHERE IN CLUB PLEASURE
"Sesshomaru..Why did you drag me here? I said I'll try law enforcement for one day and see if its what I want to study in collage. Not try a strip joint!" Inuyasha stated angrly.
"Little brother, calm down. We are to check all of the back rooms to see if there is anything going on. Even strip clubs have rules as of 'When is going too far'..." Sesshomary stated un-emotionally.
'God damn. I bet ?Miroku would much rather be in my place right now..' Inuyasha thought.
"Laya!" Sesshomaru called out as Laya walked over to him.
"Yes? What is it Sesshomaru?" Laya asked.
"Has there been anything shady going on around here?" Sesshomaru inquired.
"Check the back rooms, I saw a man drag one of my friends back there, but I couldn't do anything or it would've blown my cover." Laya stated worried. Sesshomaru nodded and continued to walk towards the Private Rooms.
"What..the hell was that all about?" Inuyasha asked Sesshomaru confused.
"I will tell you at home. Not here." Sesshomaru said as he opened one of the doors and immedally pulled out his gun. There was Kagome, tied to the bed with many wounds on her stomach, face and other parts of her body. She was completly naked and there were tears streaming down her face. The man above her had his shirt off and had a bloodly switch blade in his hand which caused most of Kagomes wounds. Inuyasha and Sesshomaru took action right away. Inuyasha kicked the man in the head and grabed the mans wrist and twisted it until his face touched the floor. He then immedally handcuffed the man but held him to the ground to get information.
"What you doing to her! Why!" Inuyasha questioned, the anger rising in his voice.
"I was told to toture her and then do whatever I pleased to do." Thr man cried out in pain.
"Who told you that..?" Inuyasha growled, twisting the mans wrist harder.
"I was hired by Naraku! I don't know anything else!" Inuyasha was about to question the man more but the police came in and took the man away. Kagome had a blanket placed around and was taken outside to sit in the back of an ambulance. She was not taken to the hospital because Sesshomaru was a dective and had to question her.
"Miss Higurashi, Do you have any releation to this 'Naraku'"? Kagome was afarid to tell..would he hurt her? Would Naraku find her if she told? She was about to lie, but then she saw Inuyashas golden orbs staring at her with worry and she broke down. She told them the story of how he was a powerful man and a drunk. Inuyasha put a hand on her shoulder to comfort her, then he decided to talk to his brother alone.
"Sesshomaru. I know this girl and she will have no where else to stay. Let her stay with us." Inuyasha pleaded.
"Well, Inuyasha if you truely want to be involved in law enforcement, you cannot have any releations to the vict-" Sesshomaru was cut off.
"I Don't want to be in law enforcement! I want her to be safe!" Inuyasha suddenly turend red at his outburst.
"She can stay with us if you admit your true feelings to her. If she is to be in our home, I do not wish for you to like her and not have her be told. Shes suffered enough." Sesshomaru smirked and went to talk to a uniform. (A/N A uniform policemen)
Inuyasha sighed in anger and embarresment. He let out a small 'Feh' and walked over to Kagome.
