Chapter 13

The inside of the police station was dull, so much unlike the outside of the building that was beautifully wound around the bricks. The puke green walls didn't match the blue tiles on the floor. There were only three people in the office. One was an officer.

"How may I help you kids?" he asked, taking a look at the four of us.

"I talked to someone yesterday, on the phone, and sent some pictures on my phone. He said to meet here today around noon." Inuyasha told the balding officer.

"Okay, follow me," he said, waving us further into the building, only to stop. "Only the boy and the girl involved, please."

Sango gave me a worried glance, and then took a look at Inuyasha. He nodded, giving her permission to leave.

"At my house. Just go up, okay?" after that, Sango and Miroku left.

We went into a small, cold room. The policeman shut the door behind us. "Ms. Higurashi, your parents have beaten you… is that why we're here?" he asked.

I looked at Inuyasha, he wasn't there. His soul was locked outside of the room. I had to go through with this alone. "Yes, that is why we are here."

The man looked shocked, "impossible! Mr. and Mrs. Higurashi would never beat their kin! No matter how much of a slut you've been!"

"Hey," Inuyasha stepped into the conversation. His eyes were on fire. "Kagome isn't a slut or a frickin' whore… you wouldn't know… You don't know her! Jackass!"

The officer flamed. "You, hanyo, have no reason to say anything in here. This is about the Higurashi's! Shut the hell up!"

"You know what?" Inuyasha didn't even let the poor officer react to his simple question. He punched him square in the face. The officer stumbled back, falling over the back of his chair. His mouth fell open. Inuyasha jumped up after him. I grabbed his hand, to try to keep him from punching the guy's head in. the hanyo gave me a sincere look.

"Let's just go, Inuyasha. This isn't working. Please? Just leave him alone." My voice stayed calm, but I was shaking. This was to much to handle.

"Okay," he said as he put his hand around my waist to lead me, protectively, out of the building.

I slid on my helmet, and waiting on the back of his motor cycle for him to go, twiddled my thumbs.

"Kagome, what are you gonna do? That dumb officer is bound to tell your parents. You won't be able to go home. Where are you going to go?" he watched me, worried.

"Hey, get me to your house, I'll tell you what my plan is when you get to the house. Just go home, Okay?" he gave me a worried glance. "Just trust me… alright?"
