Yay! I'm being such a good girl aren't I? I have kept my promise so far and the story will b done by Sunday. (that's when I leave 4 vacation. YAY!) but anyway, on with the story!

Chapter 13

It was mid March when they got the date for Kagome's last day in court. Kagome was very nervous about it. Kikyo had been filled in on everything, and despite her feelings towards Kagome she was worried. Cause, what if she went to jail? That would complicate everything and put the jewel in more danger.

Since that night when Kikyo was pulled into the picture, she had been teaching Kagome some things. She had (reluctantly) promised to not tell anyone about the club or it's location. Finally it was the last day in court. Kagome was so nervous she just couldn't stand, or sit still. While Kagome, Inuyasha, Sango, and Miroku were waiting for Sess to get there she paced back and forth.

When he finally got there they all piled up in the car and drove off to the court building down town. It only seemed like 2 seconds later that they were getting out of the car and walking up the numerous steps to the large doors of the courthouse.

Nobody knows who I really am I never felt this empty before

And if I ever need someone to come along,

Who's gonna comfort and keep me strong?

They walked through the domed central room and over to courtroom 3 for the last time.

We are all rowing a boat of fate

The waves keep on coming and we can't escape

But if we ever get lost on our way

The waves would guide you through another day

They all sat in there respective sets, waiting for things to start. To Kagome everything seemed to be going in slow motion, but time kept slipping through her fingers and soon it was time for Sango to go up to the stand.

Dooku de iki o shiteru to mei ni natta Mitai kudayami ni omoe dakedo

Mekaku shisarete tadake

Inori o sasagete atarashii hi o matsu

Asayaka ni hikaru umi sono hate made

Now Sango goes back to her seat and Miroku goes up. Sess asks a few questions then it's the plaintiff's turn.

Nobody knows who I really am

Maybe they just don't give a damn

But if I ever need some one to come along

I know you would follow me and keep me strong.

The next thing she knows Inuyasha and Miroku are switching places.

Hito no kokoro wa utsuriya ku Muke dashite ku naru tsuki wa mada

Atarashii shuuki de mune otsureteku

As Inuyasha sits down he looks Kagome in the eyes and she feels his strength pouring into her.

And every time I see your face

The oceans heave up to my heart

You make me wanna strain at the oars, and soon

I can see the shore

Oh I can't see the shore

When will I see the shore?

After Sess questioned him the plaintiff shot off question after question. After they were done with him Inuyasha walked back to his seat, giving Kagome a reassuring smile on the way.

I want you to know who I really am I never thought I'd feel this way towards you, And if you ever need someone to come along

I will fallow you, and keep you strong.

The lawyers talked to the jury for a little while, then the jury was sent back to decide the fate of the hanyous of the world.

Tabi wa mada tsuzuiteku o dayakana

Hi me tsuki wa mata atarashii shuuki

De ume o terashidasu

Inori osasagete atarashii hi o matsu

Asayaka ni hikaru umi sono hate mada

The waiting was almost unbearable. No one talked; you could have heard a pen drop. Everyone jumped when the door swung open that lead to the jury chamber. Kagome quickly looked back at Inuyasha and they shared an intense gaze.

And every time I see your face The oceans heave up t o my heart

You make me wanna strain at the oars, and soon

I can see the shore.

The jury took their seats and everyone in the courtroom quieted down.

Unmei no huneoko gi nami wa tsugi Kara tsuki e to watashi a tachi osou

Kedo sore o suteki na tabi ne.

One of the jury members stood up.

" We find the defendant, Kagome Higarashi….."

MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! A cliffy! I am evil and u all know it. (though u can all probably guess wut the outcome is going 2 b, but how gives a damn. Not me!) well, Ja ne til next time!
