Okay here's Chapter 15 and enjoy

Kagome winced as she applied antibiotics on her neck. The cut was small but it didn't stop pleading until 30 minutes after it was cut. Hiten literally bit her neck and ripped out skin. He was mad at the Higurashi's and she didn't know why. She didn't know what jobs her parents had seeing that she wasn't interested before or if it even was related to Hiten's hatred.

Shaking the thought out her head her mother called her down stairs for dinner. She quickly placed a bandage on the cut and ran down stairs. Plates were set and she sat down as her mother filled the plates. Her father was sitting right in front of her and she hesitated to open her mouth to say something.

Taking a deep breath and poking her fork into her food she looked up at him. "Dad why do you and mom go on those trips every week?" Her father looked at her for a moment and smiled.

"Well this is such a change Kagome. You never do bother talking at the table or asking such questions. I'm happy that you're changing. Well if you must know I'm a Judge and your mother follows me around to support me." He simple said.

"A judge, like for criminal cases and stuff like that."

"Yes." Kagome widened her eyes as she went back to this afternoons talk with Hiten.

"You don't know how much pain my mother had to suffer when my father went to jail."

The sentence rang into her ears until she realized thing that he said was going into place. Could it be that Bankotsu's father decided the sentence for Hiten's father trial? She debated whether to open her mouth to ask but quickly held herself back when Bankotsu opened his mouth to speak.

"Kagome what happened to your neck?" Everyone at the table looked at her bandaged neck. They stopped what they were doing and stared at her with concern.

"Nothing. I was just- well see I was- wait I just accidentally hurt myself with a pencil while I was sleeping in class." Her mother got up and cradled her hands on Kagome's face as she examined the position on the wound. "No mom I'm okay really." She pushed her mothers hands away and gave her a smile. "I'm perfectly fine don't worry so much."

Her mother stood there in shock and Kagome just arched a brow. "Um what's-" Before she could finish her sentence her mother wrapped her arms around her neck and held her daughter tightly.

"Oh honey you look so beautiful when you smile." Izayoi said with glee as she pulled away from her daughter and placed her hands on her shoulder. She looked at her mother that looked her in the eyes with such seriousness she thought her mother was going to hit her until she smiled. "I know why you've change so much. You have a boyfriend don't you and he gave you that cut which I know is a hickey on your neck right?"

"No nothing like that. I just-" Izayoi let her go and took her seat with a smile still glued on her face.

"What ever you say dear but you better introduce the lucky young man to me and your father before you two go on a date."

"A boy gave you a hickey? How could you let a boy do that to you?" Her father said in anger.

"Dad it's not a hickey. It's a cut I promise."

"Now dear if it is a cut or a hickey it doesn't really matter because our little Kagome is happy." Izayoi said as she tries to avert her fathers anger in another direction.

Kagome rolled her eyes and they continued to eat. She then held her fork tightly in her hand; she debated for 7 minutes until she final got the courage to open her mouth.

"Dad, I wanted to ask you if you knew someone by the last name Mikage." The family went silent and stared at Kagome. They didn't speak for almost 3 minutes and the silence was literally killing her. Did she say something wrong?

Kisame cleared his throat and looked at her daughter with seriousness on his face. "Well I understand that he's your cousin Kagome and you must know that your uncle went to jail but I have to ask you. Did you see him or speak to him?"

Kagome bit her lower lip and sighed. "No I was just asking but if it's to uncomfortable to talk about than-"

"No I think you have the right to know. I was the judge of that trial and the court ruled him guilty of murder and armed robbery. Well your cousin Hiten was present at court with his mother when his sentence was lethal injection." Kagome dropped her fork and stared at him. She couldn't speak or believe what she was hearing. "When we adopted you we didn't know after a week that you were related to the Mikage's and we were going to send you back to the orphanage to tell you the truth but for the week you've been with us we all fell in love with you despite your attitude towards us."

"But why lethal injection? Why not life in prison?"

"He murdered 10 people while he was robbing the bank and he pleaded not guilty to the crime. I guess he thought he got rid of the camera's that was recording the whole crime but he was wrong. So when the court was dismissed and the prisoner was taken into custody the boy Hiten threatened to kill me right in front of everyone. Of course no one took it to seriously and neither have I. The boy knew what his father has done and if I recall Hiten should be around his 20's so he must realize that it was his own fathers fault."

Kagome remained silent for the whole night. It was Hiten's fathers fault for all this but the question is how is Kagome going to stop another murder from happening? It was hard to think things through when everything was hit at her in one shot. The information she heard was too overwhelming to take in. It was horrible but yet it explains a lot on the current situation. Hiten doesn't realize that he's following in his fathers footsteps. He just has to be stop.

"Okay all I have to do is go up to him and say I'm sorry." She whispered, walking through the halls as her hands trembled with fear. When she finally got to the classroom she took a deep breath and entered the room with her head high. She approached his desk and as she did he looked up at her. He didn't say anything but stared at her.

"What is it?" he inquired as he stared up at her.

"I wanted to say I'm sorry about everything I said."

"So you said it. I accept. So is that all." He looked back at the book he was reading and leaned back in his chair.

"Well are you mad at me?"

"I'm not mad but you are bothering me from studying for my test."

"If you're not mad why are you talking to me like this. Sesshomaru I know the things I said was kinda out of line but I was just-"

"I said I accept your apology so why are you still here?"

"Because you're treating me different and you seem upset so I'm not leaving until you go back to your normal self and forgive me." Kagome slammed her hands onto his desk. Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow as he glanced over his book.

" I said I forgive you so leave." He set his book down and looked at her. "Unless you want to tell me why you were so shaken up when you received that call. Other than that can you please leave? I'm trying to study." He picked up his book and continued to read.

Kagome clenched her hands into a fist, she heard the bell rang and she sighed. "Fine but not here. Can you meet me at the park after school and-"

"Ms. Higurashi, Sorry to intrude on your conversation but I believe I heard the bell." Kagome turned to face Hiten and she tensed up.

"S-Sorry sir." She walked past him and exited the classroom. She wasn't really going to tell Sesshomaru the truth but she had to make up a good lie so things can at least get back to normal. With all she has been through at least she can get one thing back to normal.

Kagome waited patiently for Sesshomaru to arrive. She didn't really know if he was even coming. He didn't seem to care about what she said, all he cared about was his test and as she glanced at her watch she had her doubts. He wasn't coming. It has been 15 minutes since she arrived and as she sat under a tree looking at the side walk. She watched cars pass by and after 20 minutes she shoved her hands through her hair.

"Stupid idiot's not coming." Kagome didn't blame him. The things she said to him were cruel.

"So once I arrive you insult me." Sesshomaru leaned his hand on the tree looking down at her.

"Sesshomaru I thought you weren't coming." She jolted up on her feet as she smiled.

"So are you going to tell me the truth or do I have to leave?" Her smile faded and she sat back down. "Before you even start you better add why you said 'Please don't kill them' you know, those words kept running through my mind and I wanted to know why you suddenly said that in such a look of terror on your face. I don't want to pry into your business but once I heard the word 'kill' I worry about you. Just tell me what's wrong and please don't lie to me." He sat next to her and for a while no one talked as time passed by.

She was organizing her thoughts as well as deciding if it's the right thing to tell him the truth. She wanted to sink her face into his chest and cry out the truth but his life as well as many others she loved depended on what she said. So deciding what she was going to do she sighed.

"When I said 'please don't kill them' I was talking about my brother. He had problems with drugs when Ayame died and he had some debts that he didn't cover. The guys found out I was his sister and told me to give a message to Bankotsu. They had beaten me to the ground. They wanted their money but I didn't tell my brother this. He owed them 367 dollars in cash so that call I received at the mall was a threat. After I already paid them the money the next day they left me and my brother alone." She took a breath of relief. She didn't believe how her sentences flowed together and she got through it. All she need was him to believe her. "Please don't tell my brother. He went through a lot with Ayame's death and everything and I don't want him to be reminded of that. I kept it a secret and I hope you would to as well." Kagome was pulled into Sesshomaru's arms and as he held her tightly she cried, not tears of sadness but guilt.

He believed everything but she wasn't relieved. All she did was lie ever since Hiten found her and now she can never stop.

She tensed as her phone rang. She looked at the caller ID and she gripped the phone tightly.

"Who is it?" Sesshomaru asked.

"Oh it's a friend. Hold on." Kagome put the phone up to her ear and smiled. "Hey girl what's up?"

"I'm looking at you right now with the Otonashi boy and I want you to get in the car. It's the red one beside the curb. Now hurry up." The line went dead but Kagome still had the phone up to her ear.

"No way girl you serious. You're here. I'll definitely come just hold on a second." She put the phone back in her pocket and smiled at Sesshomaru.

"So what happened?" he asked confused.

"My friend Yuki is here. You see that red car. It's her car and she's waiting for me to go shopping. You don't mind do you I mean she lives in Okinawa and is only in town for today."

"No I don't mind. I'll see you at school than. Have fun." Kagome got up and head toward the car. She opened the door and before going in she waved at him who still looked on. Waving back she took a seat in the car and her smile immediately disappeared.

He drove away from the curb and began to drive. She didn't know where he was taking her but it didn't matter cause she couldn't do anything about it. He didn't talk until he took a turn 15 minutes later.

"What did you tell him?" Hiten demanded as he kept his eyes on the road.

"Nothing. I told him nothing."

"You better not lie to me. You were talking about telling him the truth. What was that about back at school?"

"When you called me last time he heard me say 'don't kill them' and he was worried. I told him that a pack of drug dealers were threatening Bankotsu to pay them the money he owed for purchasing their drugs and he believed me. I swear I'm telling you the truth. I wouldn't lie to you Hiten." He brushed his hand on her cheek as he did Kagome tensed up and held her breath. He's going to hit me.

"You're learning very fast. I believe you." He put his hand back on the wheel as silence once again took over.

"Where are you taking me?" She asked trying to sound calm.

"My place."

Kagome didn't say anything to that. She didn't want to know what was going to happen but soon she'll find out. Everything ran through her head that she saw in movies. What happened to the girl when she was brought to a murder's home? They would either kill the girl or make her suffer; it was one or the other or both. She just closed her eyes as she held back tears.

When they stopped 20 minutes later he got out the car. Kagome would have gotten out to but it was lock from the inside. He opened the door for her and grabbed her arm. Closing the door he tugged her into the house and threw her on the wooden floor. She remained on the floor not bothering to look up at him or to look at the house. She heard foots steps shuffle past her and he disappeared as he turned into a corridor.

She sat up and he returned with some kind of picture frame in his hand. He threw it in front of her and she picked it up. She stared at the picture of their childhood self. They were smiling and her real mother and father were right behind them, hugging both Hiten and herself with smiles on their faces. They had a camera with a timer set on it. It took her father 10 minutes to set up the time and figure out how it worked and when they finally figured it out they took the picture in the back yard.

"I liked you than. You were like a sister to me." Hiten took a seat on the couch as he looked at the ceiling. "You were everything to me. I never had any brothers or sisters and seeing that you didn't have any siblings either I told you-"

"You told me that you would take care of me and you wouldn't let anything or anyone hurt me." She finished as her mind went to the past. He meant everything to her but as things around them changed, he changed with them as well.

"Although when my family ran into financial problems your parents didn't bother to help us. That's is when I started hating you. I wanted to strangle you to death because of my misfortune. You had a happy life and you had parents who loved you but my life was the opposite from yours. My parents fought a lot because they needed the money to feed me and to keep the house." Kagome noticed his hands curling into a fist as he stood up and went to her. He knelt down beside her and picked her up by her shirt. "Your parents didn't want to help my family out. Every time I would go to your damn house I would always want to kill you right there and than when you would smile at me."

He lifted her to her feet and she stood there looking at the anger in his eyes. "If my parents knew that you and your family needed help they would have hel-" Her breath escaped from her as he punched her in the gut. He took a step back as she fell to her knees.

"Your parents knew that we needed help but when they found out my father was in jail for robbery they had their doubts about helping out. Now get the hell up." He stared at her with a malicious smirk on his face as she struggled to stand.

"I know my parents. They would have helped you out. They loved you, you were like a brother to me and you were like a son to them." Hiten clutched his fist tighter and before she could speak he punched her in the cheek.

"Shut the fuck up. They didn't give a shit about me and if you don't want to get hurt even further stay on the ground."

"They loved you." Kagome place her arms flat on the ground as she pushed herself on her knees. "They cared about you."

Anger coursed through his body hearing her words. He didn't want to hear lies from the person he despised. Before she could get up any further he kicked her in the stomach and she fell on her back gasping for air. "Just shut up." He said in anger shoving his hands in his pocket. He took out a pocketknife and held it tightly in his hand. Hiten didn't want to hear any of her words and he was getting tired of her voice and her lies.

She looked at the knife in his hand and smiled. "I'm not going to shut up. I'm telling you the truth. They told me how wonderful it was to have you in the house. They enjoyed seeing me so happy with you that they loved you like they loved me. My parents wanted everything for us to be happy and when-"

"I said shut up!" He stomped on her stomach and left it on her gut.

"When you came to our home you remember that they always spent time with us." Kagome winced as his foot pushed into her stomach. It was choking her and her vision was getting blurry.

"Why don't you shut up already? Your parents never cared, they only wanted me around because it made you happy." Lifting his foot off of her stomach he stared down at her. She looked like she was going to sleep but she soon opened her eyes wide and struggled to sit up.

"We were both happy. You knew that and I knew that the thing that was messing you up was your parents. When your mother died my parents wanted to adopt you. They wanted to keep it a secret from you so they could surprise you." Tears ran down her cheek and she continued to get herself up. "They told me to keep it a secret so when you arrived you would be surprised. They were going to tell you when they got back from there trip but the plane crashed and it killed them." She stood in front of him and looked him in the eyes. "You were going to be my brother but that accident ruined everything." She smiled weakly at him as she buckled her knees to stand. "But you can stop all this killing and-" A sharp pain pierced her stomach and she was backed up against the wall.

Hiten took a step back and smirked at her as his hands was covered in blood. "It's to late for me and you. Nothing will ever change." She pushed herself to keep standing but her body was already pushed to far and she fell on her knees as she leaned up against the wall.

Hiten knelt down in front of her as he kissed her lips and pulled out the knife. "It's over Kagome Higurashi." With her eyes half open she saw a smirk on his face and that was the last thing she saw before everything went black.
