Prologue
He stood there looking in the mirror. He could hear the students in the hall with his two white inu youkai ears on top of his head. His gold eyes took in every detail in the bathroom that reflected in the foggy, or dirty mirror. InuYasha was sure it had to be dirt that covered the reflective glass. He sighed as he brought a clawed hand through his matted white hair, his long fingers bringing out the blood that caused the matting. "Why me?" he asked his other self. Of course his reflection didn't answer him back.
He brought his hands down to his side to straighten his dirty blue jeans. Then he brought them up to grab some hand paper to scrub at the blood spot now staining his white t-shirt. "Damn it all!" he muttered as he tried his hardest to get his own blood off of his favorite shirt.
He sighed as he gave up on the spots and went for the wood door to the male youkai bathroom in Okinawa's Youkai High School. The door barely opened by his own hand when it burst open and two boys came in. One had long white hair, the other had brown that was neatly placed in a ponytail. They both pushed poor InuYasha back against the wall just behind the door. "Oh, look Tenma!! InuYasha's in the bathroom. Now, why would he be in here?" the boy with the ponytail looked at the white haired youkai.
"I don't know Kouga. You don't think he was trying to avoid us, do you?" Tenma answered.
"No, guys, I was just about to meet up with you. Honest," InuYasha put his hands in front of his body to show he was sincere.
"You were late though, so we decided to look for you. Why were you late, little doggy?" Kouga asked as he stepped closer to the dog-eared boy. His blue eyes narrowed and he brought a clawed hand up to InuYasha's face.
"I...I...I..." InuYasha stuttered. He looked between the two youkai. Both pairs of blue eyes stared at him menacingly. He still couldn't think of what to say to them.
"No answer?" Tenma said. "No mercy then." He shot forward and grabbed InuYasha by the collar and forced him away from the wall. Tenma let his fist collide with the face that had just been cleaned of blood. "You should listen to those who are stronger then yourself!"

Kagome brought her hand through her raven hair as she worked on her homework in her bedroom. She looked at the third question on her math and tapped her pencil. "I can't believe she gave us over a hundred questions!" She yelled as she threw her book off of her desk. She then took her pencil and chucked it at the wall, making it stick out of the embedded wall where many more holes were made from previous pencils.
"Kagome, you have better not have made another hole!" she heard her mother yell from down the hallway.
"Why would I do that mother?!" she called back.
"That's what I thought," her mother answered.
Kagome rolled her eyes as she thought about school the next day. She then began to plan what she would do and whom she should seduce into doing her homework. "Maybe Hojo will do it."

He walked into the small apartment that was falling apart. "Dad!" he called weakly through his home. He heard the heavy walking of his father's footsteps and the growl from the older youkai.
"InuYasha, why do you look like you've been in Hell?" Mr. Takoshi said to his youngest son.
InuYasha just looked down at the floor, waiting for his father to lecture him on being weak, again. "They attacked me again," he whispered.
"How could you let them attack you? Sesshomaru never had any problems in that school! You make us look weaker in the eyes of Humans! What's wrong with you, InuYasha!? Where did I raise you different than your brother?!" Mr. Takoshi walked to the kitchen to take the overly used ice pack out of the icebox. He placed it on the boys face, right where a huge bump was forming. InuYasha hissed and tried to back away, but his father grabbed the back of his white haired head gently and held him in place. "Stay still so we can fix these up. They should heal in two days, maybe three."
InuYasha nodded slightly. "Thanks dad."
"Anytime son," Mr. Takoshi answered as he sighed.
"What's wrong?" InuYasha asked. He looked up into the sullen amber eyes.
"We're having money problems. I have to get a new job, but I don't know if the hours will work out," Mr. Takoshi pulled the ice pack away and guided his son into the bathroom to clean the rest of his wounds.
InuYasha thought a minute about the new family problem. "And Sesshomaru?"
"He's in the other country, you know that. He can't send money. He needs it more than us for his college," Mr. Takoshi reminded the teen.
InuYasha nodded. "I'll get a job."
Mr. Takoshi looked at him for a minute. "Where?"
"I don't know, anywhere," InuYasha vowed. "I want to help, and I only have two more years of school left anyway."
"I'm happy that you're still in school. That's all I ask from you," Mr. Takoshi patted his son on the head. "Now, go do your homework. I have to get to work."
InuYasha nodded and started to his room. It was the same room that he had once shared with his brother. One large bed was the only thing in the room, and it took most of the space. He sat down on it and pushed the sheet full of holes out of his way. He pulled his homework from his ripping bag and started on the too easy homework.

Thanks To: Everyone I e-mailed and asked to correct this. I only used some of the people I e-mailed, because after so many I was fully corrected. Thank you anyway.
A/N:Review please and I will continue this. Thank you!
