I couldn't tell you why she felt that way,
She felt it everyday.
And I couldn't help her,
I just watched her make the same mistakes again.
What's wrong, what's wrong now?
Too many, too many problems.
Don't know where she belongs, where she belongs.
Open your eyes and look outside, find the reasons why.
You've been rejected, and now you can't find what you left behind.
Be strong, be strong now.
Too many, too many problems.
Don't know where she belongs, where she belongs.
She wants to go home, but nobody's home.
It's where she lies, broken inside.
With no place to go, no place to go to dry her eyes.
Broken inside.
Her father's new bride had been in the dressing room for nearly three hours. Kagome stopped outside the door and tried to steady herself. She couldn't get over the feeling that the floor underneath her was still rocking. She had arrived in Kyoto on the morning train from Tokyo.
Kagome hesitated a moment with her hand on the door. She could still taste the warm coppery taste in her bleeding mouth from where Naraku had hit he earlier. She pushed open the door and walked straight towards the window without looking anywhere else. The dressing room was on the fifth floor of the hotel where the wedding was taking place; from the window, she could see the port of Kobe only six or seven blocks to the south. The early afternoon sunlight cast a sheen on the calm water.
Slowly, Kagome looked toward the bride, who sat in front of the mirror along one of the walls. She had already put on several layers of the wedding kimono- everything but the silver-white outmost layer, which hung on the wooden rack on the opposite wall. The clothes she had worn to the hotel were in a neat folded pile. Her hair was pulled back, her head covered with a white towel, and two women from the beauty salon were massaging her face.
" What do you want brat?" She spat. Opening her brown eyes only to glare at her.
" Nothing Kikyou-San. I was told to come here. You wanted to speak with me?" Kagome answered.
" Why would I want to talk to you? Your nothing," She paused to motion out the two beauty salon women. " You. Are. Nothing. Naraku hates you. I hate you, even your mother hated you!" Kikyou laughed. Kagome glared at her.
People will tell you that I've done this because I did not love you, her mother had written. Don't listen to them. Kagome blocked out what she was saying which only mad her angrier. Kikyou would hurt her but never physically. Only verbally, and boy did it hurt. " Wait till I tell your father! No wonder your mother-committed suicide! I'm surprised that Naraku hasn't yet!" Was the last she heard before she closed the door behind her, blinking back the tears that threatened to spill.
Kagome walked to her room in silence only stopping to take the room key out of her pocket. Naraku and Kikyou got a suite along with a big room for Souta. She got a crappy room next to the front office. You could hear them talking and the phones ringing and the weather channel broadcasting in the background form the small TV that hung in the corner. Throwing open the door she huffed as she laid down on her bed. The good thing about this all was, Naraku wouldn't bother her for he was far too busy to care what she did. Not that she 'had' anything to do. He could careless if she were to walk out into the streets and be run over by a semi. He would only take his frustrations out on Souta once she was gone. That was the only real thing binding her to this world.
Laying her head down on the pillows she finally let the tears roll down her pale cheeks. She tasted the saltiness when she inhaled through her mouth. Seeing how her nose was stuffy from crying. Kagome wiped her face on her sleeve, and turned to face the TV screen. Pressing the 'on' button she was greeted with soft noises. Turning it up so she could hear she switched channels to see what was happening in town. Finding the travel channel she listened.
'And later tonight Shrill Japans number one rock band will be performing at 8:00, live at The Geisha house, Kyoto's glamorous night club. I guess it will be jamming tonight. Tamari Hamada, the owner of The Geisha house says that he believes that it will be a very big turn out. It's hard to believe that they might have to turn people away. Considering this place can easily pack 2000 people inside and still be in the fire code. So if I was you I would come early to find a great spot. Back to you Suzuki…"
"Thanks Kumara, again that was our field reporter Creston, Kumara, reporting live from The Geisha house.' The screen faded off into some random commercial about hotdogs and Kagome sat still staring at the screen.
'I could never get away with it. Could I?' She thought. 'Naraku doesn't 'have' to know where I go. Besides what he doesn't know can't hurt him. If I got caught it wouldn't be that bad.' Her mind was reeling. Naraku wouldn't be paying any attention to where she was, he would be too busy with his new bride after the ceremony to notice her. Right? It was decided. During the ceremony, which she wasn't invited to, she would go. Naraku wouldn't miss her. He was rich, cruel, and a demon. Kagome knew that much. Sadly Kagome was also a half -breed. Her father had been an upper class Inu-yokai, while her mother had been a powerful Miko. Something strange happened though instead of being half human and half yokai, she had become full demon with incredibly strong Miko abilities that always tried to purify her demon ass to oblivion. Resulting in strong seizures or blackouts. Souta however was a mortal with demon abilities. Both of her parents were dead, leaving only Kagome to carry their legacy. Naraku didn't deserve her family's money; he wasn't related to her or her brother. Yet he had access to the bank account. She would make him pay.
Kagome awoke from the nap she had taken and looked at the clock. It read 7:26 she went and got dressed every now and then looking up at the clock to check the time. She came out with her hair in a high ponytail with the white stands she received from her fathers' side of the family hanging down in her face. Kagome however did not inherit much else except for the inhuman strength and speed along with his poison claws, fangs, and body marking which she concealed with a spell, two maroon stripes on each cheek, ankle, and wrist, and a dark blue crescent moon, showing that she was part of the western lands. Her ears were pointed, and pierced in three spots where she kept earrings with tiny silver bells all attached with a silver/blue chain. Kagome also wore black Eyeliner with red lipstick, which made her face look sickly pale, black T.R.I.P.P pants with red suspender X's hanging off it in the back, a black tank top with the words " Yes, I'm the evil twin." In blood red letters, a torn up black fishnet top that would cover most of her scars, and finally she finished it off with her knee high leather boots. Quietly she opened her door only to hear. 'Will the Onigumo party please gather at the chapel.' On the loud speaker. 'So,' she thought. 'It has begun.' Kagome sighed as she felt more tears prick at her eyes. Looking up at the sealing she blinked, and they were gone.
Kagome made her way through the crowds of people, glancing at her watch it read 11:42. She quickened her pace. The hotel would lock its doors at midnight. She did not want to be locked out, only to be found in the morning and reported to Naraku. "Excuse me!" She shouted over the loud music. It made her wonder if they weren't breaking the law by disrupting the peace. Nearing the back Exit door, she reached out for the handle only to hit a wall. 'There wasn't a wall there a minute ago.' Kagome said to her self. Looking up she gasped as she was met with two golden orbs staring intently down at her. 'He must be a demon. No human could have amber eyes.' "Sumimasen, Sorry." She breathed looking down at her feet.
He whore baggy black pants and a red and white button up shirt that was unbuttoned to show a black muscle shirt underneath. Kagome almost gasped as she saw his muscles. They were perfectly sculpted. 'No way in hell he isn't a demon.' She smirked.
" Why are you in such a rush that you had to slam into me, wench?" He asked in a voice void of all emotion. He wore a perfect mask that hid everything that he felt inside. Kagome had been trying to get that right for years, it made her wonder how long it took him. Coming back to reality she processed what he had just said. Fuming she answered.
" LOOK PAL," Kagome pointed her finger as his chest, only to receive an arched eyebrow. "YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO CALL ME THAT! I SAID I WAS SORRY, SO WHO DIED AND MADE YOU KING? HUH? WHY DON'T YOU PULL THAT ICE-CYCLE OUT OF YOUR ASS, I THINK IT'S WEDGED IN THERE SO TIGHT THAT IT'S GETTING TO YOUR BRAIN!" At this point everyone had stopped dancing, even the band had stopped playing to watch what would happen next. Some laughed at her remark, but shut-up immediately when the man glared at them. "Come with me." He whispered so that only she could hear, as he pulled her out side.
The cool night air swept over them both as he opened the fire exit. Slamming the door he said. " Is that usually how you greet people?" She sneered finding nothing funny. "Only arrogant JERKS!" She retorted
"Hmm, you still didn't answer my question. Why were you in such a hurry?"
" I'm late," she growled out through clenched teeth. "And your not helping any."
" You do know who I am, ne?" He asked. Lifting her chin up with his clawed hand.
" Why would I know a bastard like you?"
" We will meet again…I promise that." He whispered coldly in her ear sending shivers down her back. She nodded and stood back. "My name is Sesshoumaru." "And mine is Kagome." With that she jumped off into the night flying crossed the buildings towards the hotel. 'Sesshoumaru.' She thought as she landed in front of the side of the hotel wall.
The wedding had been a success and now she had a new mother. She hated it. Why didn't the cops just come and arrest her, anything was better than at home. Kikyou always nagged her, and Naraku would beat her if only to make Kikyou happy. They never hit Souta, never. They took it all out on her. Kagome took the beatings for him. She could heal faster being a demon.
The only real perk to having Kikyou as a stepmother was that she forced Kagome to go to school. There she made a few friends, their names were Sango, Miroku, and Rin. They were all nice, but she could not invite them over, or call them or even speak to them outside of school. The last time Sango called asking for Kagome Naraku had answered, after he said he didn't know whom 'Kagome' was he hung up and broke her arm by hanging her in the air then cutting it with his claws.
Kagome walked in the same forest green door that she had walked through since she was 3 and laid her backpack down in her room. Suddenly she heard a scream echo throughout the house. 'THAT SOUNDED LIKE SOUTA!' She panicked. Kagome stumbled out of her room tripping on the plush carpet just outside her door, stood back up and continued to Souta's room. She stopped suddenly to listen before she opened the door. Her hand resting just above the handle.
" Yea you better scream! I like it when you scream, it reminds me of your bitchy of a mother! She screamed when I hit her." Kagome heard some more whimpering. Suddenly not being able to take it anymore, Kagome ripped open the door. "NA-RA-KU!" She screamed, pink purifying energy flying around her body. "YOU PROMISED TO NEVEER TOUCH MY BROTHER! WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING THIS? WHAT HAS HE DONE? YOUR DEAD. NOBODY TALKS ABOUT MY FAMILY, OR TOUCHES MY FAMILY WITHOUT BRINGING IT UP TO ME."
" Ku, ku, ku. Kagome you foolish girl, I was wondering when you'd show up. I was planning on testing my latest game on you." He smiled eerily standing up and moving towards Kagome.
" Stay away you sick bastard!" She shook.
" Kagome that is not the way you should talk to your father." He laughed.
" You aren't my father!" She yelled.
" Your right. But I did kill him. He was weak, falling in love with a human! Ha! Who would've thought that a powerful demon such as your father, Hakaru would degrade himself with a mortal PRIESTESS?" He started to laugh.
Kagome growled as she saw red seeping into her pupils. "You…bastard!" She managed to growl out. Suddenly she blasted Naraku through the wall with her inner-Miko. He fell three stories and landed on his back not being able to move from the powerful magic. He only smirked as she jumped out the window after him. 'Good. Soon she will go into a rage and then will be easy meat.' He said to himself, as he looked at her half red eyes. Kagome jumped into the air with her claws extended ready to come down on Naraku as an arrow with purifying energy shot out of the right and hit her square in the chest. Kagome flew backwards and was pinned to The God tree.
" You are a stupid bitch. You really thought that I wasn't prepared?" Naraku said as he stood up, looking to his right to see Kikyou holding a bow that was still vibrating from releasing an arrow. " Thank you Kikyou." He said only to receive a cold smile.
Kagome started to claw at the arrow in her chest. It wouldn't purify her, it would just hurt her. Allot. Finally pulling herself free she stumbled forward only to fall on the ground growling at the pain that erupted as her shoulder hit the ground.
"Common Kikyou, she'll be there for a while. Let's go pay a visit to that bitch's bank account, I'm in the mood for eating out tonight." After Naraku kicked her ribs the two walked off, leaving a crying Kagome lying on the ground. They would die. If not by her hands then she prayed to god that they died in extreme pain. They deserved everything they had coming.
Souta stumbled down the steps towards her. Sitting down next to her. "I'm sorry sis, it's all my fault. I let Naraku into my room, I'm so sorry. They're gone now, you can come inside." He reached out to help her up only to be answered by a deep growl and a scowl. "I need to think for a while, I'm leaving." She then stood up on her own, clutching her shoulder.
" Your hurt you can't go!" Souta said tears now streaming down his face.
" I'm a demon Souta, I will heal in a few hours at the very least."
" B-be careful," he said knowing that he couldn't stand up to her when she was in a bad mood. She limped towards the closest tree, then jumped up and took off faster than any human eye could see.
Feeling the wind in her hair she took a deep breath. Going at this speed she couldn't smell the blood, all was blurry. Landing on a lamp post she watched as people did their daily routine hoping to scrape together enough money to pay for their children's education when they are gone. Kagome never had to worry about that. She was immortal. Sighing she jumped into an alleyway, from there she joined the crowd, not caring about he stares she received form her wound. Looking at the crosswalk sign it flashed 'walk' Kagome strolled crossed the street only to hear the sound of screeching brakes and the smell of burning rubber. Turning her head she saw a black BMW skid towards her. Not thinking of the crowds around her she jumped into the air doing a 360 degree flip and then landed on the dashboard, making a fairly sized dent, sitting in a squatting position. Giving the driver the middle finger she gasped then jumped off as she realized who it was. It was Sesshoumaru…
" Well, well, what do we have here? When I said we would meet again I had no intentions of it being this soon."

Her feelings she hides.
Her dreams she can't find.
She's losing her mind.
She's fallen behind.
She can't find her place.
She's losing her faith
She's fallen from grace.
She's all over the place.
Yeah, oh
She wants to go home, but nobody's home.
It's where she lies, broken inside.
With no place to go, no place to go to dry her eyes.
Broken inside.
Hello all sorry about the sucky chapter, and sorry to all of you readers that did not want Sesshoumaru and Kagome, just to make it up to your I'll put InuYasha in the next chapter. How's that sound? I personally think this chapter SUCKED! … I'm stupid oh well. And to who ever reviewed asking about future lemons. Maybe. MAY-BE I will put some lemon in, but that's only if your super nice! Thanks for your support. Any suggestions are appreciated.
I WILL NOT BE UPDATING UNTIL THE FIRST OF MARCH! It's my fathers 50th birthday and I have company over, my computer is located in the guest room so I will not update until they leave. Sorry for any inconvenience.
I also want to apologize for the long wait. Just because I don't update doesn't mean you have to send death threats, and hate mail! If anything that stuff will make me change my name, move far away, and never post a chapter again in fear of my life! So sending Hate mail will only delay posting further, to all of you stupid people out there that don't know that by now. All right everyone. Take it easy. I say good day to you Sir.
