Chapter 16:
Kagome just left the room. She couldn't stand to be in there anymore and see the looks on Sango, Keith, and Isis's faces. She knew she left with many questions unanswered but she needed time to think.
'Now that everyone is here and knows me and Sango's secret I guess its time to reveal all my secrets.' Kagome thought as she arrived at her room in the C wing.
Kagome punched in the code to enter her room and the door automatically swished open allowing her to enter. However before Kagome could get in her room two strong arms wrapped around her waist and dragged her in and the door shut. The lights in her room immediately turned on once she and whoever dragged her into the room came in.
Kagome turned with a start once they entered the room to she who her assailant was. It was Inuyasha and he had concern etched clearly on his face.
Without words Inuyasha just walked over to one of the couches in the living room and sat looking at her expectantly.
"Sigh I suppose you are here for an explanation." Kagome said as she walked over and sat next to him rubbing her temples.
Inuyasha said nothing as she walked over and sat next to him. He just allowed his eyes to follow her movements in silence with a blank face.
"Yes. I want to know what is going on here." Inuyasha said after a few moments of silence went by.
"I thought Keith already explained all this to you." Kagome said.
She knew what he was really getting at but wanted to avoid it. She always felt vulnerable around Inuyasha and right now in her weak state she felt it even more.
"You know that's not what I meant. Your hiding something from everyone Kagome and I want to know exactly what the hell it is." Inuyasha said his blank face taking on a look of anger.
Kagome sighed so much for playing dumb.
"Inuyasha I plan on telling everyone in the morning what has been going on with me. Right now I am not in the mood to talk about it." She said hoping he would catch her drift and leave her alone.
To bad Inuyasha was stubborn.
"That's nice and I'm sure the others will appreciate you opening up to them about it but I'm not everyone Kagome. I want to know what's going on with you NOW!" Inuyasha said.
Kagome could see the fire in his eyes and knew he wasn't going to give up any time soon.
"What does it matter to you? What do you care if there is something wrong with me? It's not as if I matter to you other than being your sex toy." Kagome said sadly voicing what she feared he thought of her.
Inuyasha just sat there in shock. Is that how he made her feel? Like she was just his sex toy? No that was all wrong.
"Kagome, I want to know because… I care about you." Inuyasha said softly as he grabbed her chin and turned her toward him.
Kagome's eyes had gone wide. He cared about her?
"Inuyasha." She whispered afraid that she would wake up from this and find out it was all a dream.
"Kagome I really do care. Somewhere in the months that I've known you I've developed the feeling. You mean more to me than just a sex toy." He said his hand still holding her chin and looking deep into her eyes.
"I'm sorry if I made you feel like you were just a sex toy. You mean a lot to me. Not just because you're my partner and not because we have great sex. It's because of you and right now I'm worried because you're hiding something from me and I can't do anything to help." (Awww Inu is way out of character right now but don't worry he's still himself)
Kagome could only hold her breath as he spoke. He really did care for her.
'Oh Inuyasha I'm happy that you care for me but I know you can't possibly harbor the same strong feeling I do.' Kagome thought as she smiled at him
"Thank you Inuyasha but I still want to tell everyone at once. It... It will be too difficult to tell this story twice. And if I tell you I may chicken out on telling the others. Right now however I do need you to do something for me." Kagome said as she looked at him with hopeful eyes.
"Anything." Inuyasha replied sincerely
"Can you please hold me while I sleep? I feel better when I sleep in your arms." Kagome said as she looked down with a blush.
Inuyasha also blushed.
"Of course but are you sure you don't want to do something else before we go to sleep." Inuyasha said with a sly smirk trying to lighten the mood.
It worked because Kagome just squeaked in outrage and hit him on the shoulder lightly. Her blush gone and a smile on her face.
"You're a pervert Yashie. But you know I am in no shape to have sex so sorry puppy." Kagome said as she stood up and stretched.
"There you go again calling me a puppy. Remember last time I showed you how I wasn't a puppy." Inuyasha said with a dreamy smile at the memory.
Kagome just blushed again and laughed punching him again.
"You really need to get some Inuyasha. I'm starting to think you're deprived."
"Well maybe if you'd heal a little faster I could." He said with a smirk before adding, "By the way you look cute when you blush."
Kagome just blushed five different shades of red as Inuyasha rolled on the floor with laughter. Kagome in an attempt to save some of her dignity hit him in the face with one of the couch pillows.
Inuyasha just stopped laughing and rolling and looked from Kagome to the pillow then back.
"You just hit me with a pillow." Inuyasha said shocked.
"Hump that shut you up." Kagome said crossing her arms with a smirk to match one of Inuyasha's own.
Inuyasha just picked up the pillow and tried to throw it at Kagome but missed at the last minute.
"Inuyasha you just returned fire. THIS MEANS WAR!" Kagome said as she ran to her bedroom and got one of her pillows off her bed throwing it through the door towards Inuyasha.
Inuyasha just caught the pillow and ran into Kagome's room. The blue colored pillow raised high above his head as he gave a battle cry before throwing it at Kagome so hard that it knocked the girl off the bed.
"Take that Kaggie." Inuyasha yelled as he got on her blue bed and began to jump on it with a new pillow in his hand.
"That's it Takahasi your going down!" Kagome declared with a pillow in hand as she jumped on the bed and swung at Inuyasha. Sleep was completely forgotten.
"Bring it on Higurashi." Inuyasha said as he swung back at her.
And the Pillow Fight War had begun.
The Next Morning
After a night of pillow fighting Inuyasha and Kagome laid sleeping on Kagome's bed. They left the war as a tie until later and decided to catch a few Z's before facing there families. All was calm in the room and Kagome was wrapped securely in Inuyasha's arms.
Both teenagers were enjoying their own dreams of each other in peace before a knock and a voice was heard at the open bedroom door.
"Wake up you two idiots or you'll be late for the meeting."
Inuyasha and Kagome woke up to see a smiling Sango and Miroku.
"What happened here? It looks like World War III broke out in here?" Asked Miroku as he looked around the once clean blue room.
"Well in a way it did. Me and Inuyasha had a Pillow Fight War last night." Kagome said as she crawled out of Inuyasha's strong arms and out of his warmth.
"Really and who won?" Asked Sango curiously.
Kagome blushed, "We never finished we called a cease fire."
"Humm judging by the blush I'm guessing that's not all that happened care to fill us in Kagome." Miroku said as he glared over at his best friend who a stupid smile on his face.
"Well-" Kagome began
Flashback
Pillows were flying everywhere in the spacious blue room. Lamps, TV's, pictures, and anything else that was light in weight and got in the way of the pillows was being knocked to the ground.
Kagome and Inuyasha were on opposite sides of her beds and were using it kind of as a fort.
The battle went on for about an hour before Inuyasha jumped on the bed and pulled Kagome up on it also.
"How about we call a temporary cease fire I have something I want to ask you." Inuyasha said as he sat Kagome down in his lap.
"Oh and what is that?" Kagome asked running her fingers through his silky silver hair.
"Will you be my girlfriend?" Inuyasha asked and stared deep in her eyes.
Kagome's fingers stopped immediately in his hair. Girlfriend? The Inuyasha Takahasi world renowned hottie and the sexiest man she had ever seen had just asked her out.
'I can't… I can't breathe.' Kagome thought as she forgot how to breathe.
"Kagome?" Inuyasha asked worriedly. 'Maybe she doesn't like me like I thought she did.'
"Yes." Kagome said with a brilliant smile on her face.
"I asked if-" Inuyasha started only to be cut off by Kagome.
"No idiot I mean yes I'll be your girlfriend."
Inuyasha didn't even reply. All he did was pull Kagome into a soul searing kiss that was sure to leave her lips swollen and bruised.
Kagome just returned the kiss with the same intensity. It was quickly becoming passionate and Inuyasha laid Kagome on the bed while crawling on top of her.
"Inuyasha don't forget pant I'm still injured we can't do that." Kagome said after she pulled away to breathe.
Inuyasha's eyes just rolled in frustration as he slid off Kagome and laid next to her. He had to wait till she healed to do anything with her.
"This sucks." Inuyasha said as he pulled her to him so she could snuggle into him.
"Yea but I promise I'll make it up to you." She said seductively and laid her head on his chest.
Inuyasha just smiled mischievously and smacked her ass.
"I know you will and you will be making it up to me all night."
End Flashback
Kagome had told Miroku and Sango everything minus the parts after she agreed to be Inuyasha's girlfriend.
"Aww congratulations guys you make a cute couple." Said Sango as she smiled at the two.
"Yea I got to agree with that. Just make sure you don't do anything to hurt my little cousin Inuyasha. I'm counting on you as my best friend." Miroku said seriously.
"Feh of course Miroku. Kagome deserves the best and that's what she's going to get."
"sigh aww how cute I envy you Kags." Said Sango.
"Well you know Sango if you really want me you can ask me out." Miroku said returning to his perverted self.
"Umm well… Miroku I…tick tick tick YOU MOTHERFUCKING PERVERT!" Sango screamed and bashed Miroku upside the head knocking him clear on the floor.
"Hump serves you right idiot. Guys there is a meeting at nine so I suggest you take a shower and get dressed." And with that Sango left the room and Kagome's minnie apartment.
"Wait for me Sango my love." Miroku yelled as he got off the floor and ran after her.
Kagome and Inuyasha just laughed at the two.
"They like each other." Kagome said as she walked over and sat next to her boyfriend on the bed.
"Keh it's obvious. Miroku has never pursued a girl like he is Sango. Most likely because she's not as easy as the girls were use to. I know that's one of the reasons I fell for you." Inuyasha said as he kissed her temple.
"Aww thank you Inu. Come on we need to get ready for the meeting."
And with that the two went and got prepared.
Meeting
Everyone who was in Kagome's surgery room yesterday was at the meeting room today, including Dr. Hitomi. It turns out that in addition to being the head of the medical staff she was a close friend of Kagome's and good assassin.
Inuyasha and Kagome had taken showers, changed clothes, and came to the meeting. Inuyasha borrowed clothes from one of Kagome's previous missions where she had to be disguised as a teenage boy.
"Okay we are here to discuss a few things concerning Naraku and Onigumo. These two are a great threat and now that they are meddling with the well being of my assassins they must be taken care of. However we are at a lost at knowing what they are currently doing. So we-" Started Keith only to be interrupted by Kagome.
"Naraku and Onigumo are looking for the Shikon No Tama." She said.
Everyone looked at her.
"Naraku told me while we were fighting. That was the other reason he sent us on the wild goose chase for the Light Crystal. So he and Onigumo could find the Shikon No Tama."
"But how are we sure that this isn't another wild goose chase?" Asked Keith.
"Because the Tama is real. We have first edition books about it in our library back home. The Shikon No Tama is a powerful jewel that can grant anyone's wish. However if it's an evil wish the jewel becomes tainted and darkness will befall the earth. If it's a pure wish then the jewel will disappear after the wish is made." Said Shessomaru reciting a part of his readings.
"Yes indeed I do remember a whole series of books dedicated to the jewel. Our ancestors were there when the jewel was formed by a powerful moon priestess named Midoriko." Said InuTaisho.
"A moon priestess? That is incredible aren't they suppose to be demons that possess incredibly strong spiritual powers?" Asked Miroku.
"Yes indeed. They are very rare to come by." Said InuTaisho.
"So now that we know what their after we just have to get it first. So InuTaisho I'm going to need you to get us all the books you have on the jewel so we can begin our search. Also there is another announcement concerning the younger members." Keith said.
"Okay what is it?" Asked Kagome with curiosity.
"Well technically it doesn't concern anyone who already lives here. All the adults have agreed that Naraku and Onigumo are extremely big threats and that we should treat them as such. So everyone will move into the base and become assassins. Classes will be held here for both academics and assassin skills." Keith said.
All the younger teens looked at Keith in shock.
"Wow this is bangin. We get the kick ass as assassins." Said Souta. (Lol ass as assassins notice a pattern.)
"Yes Kagome you and everyone else who are already assassins will pickup where you left off in your studies." Said Keith and Kagome and the group nodded.
"Inuyasha and the others you will be beginning your training. First you will have to go to your homes and get your things. Then come back and pick a room in one of the wings you like minus D wing that's for adults and where your parents will be staying. You are all still the leaders of your gang so of course you will take care of those affairs. And you are free to come and go as you please. Your parents are still also keeping their company. Now any questions?" Keith finished.
No one raised their hand.
"Okay if that is it we have work to do so go and-" Keith started only to once again be cut off by Kagome.
"Actually I have something I want to say." She said standing up with all eyes on her.
"Okay what is it Kagome?" Asked Keith as he sat down.
"I think I owe everyone an explanation on a lot of things. Especially Sango who has stuck by me even though I have kept her in the dark all this time." Kagome said as she looked at Sango.
"The reason I left 5 years ago was to protect everybody. I didn't want another person who I cared about to be killed because of me."
"What are you talking about Kagome? Who was killed because of you?" Asked Tai.
"Both Josh and Dominique were killed because of me." She said sadly her bangs covering her eyes.
"No they weren't they were walking back home and got attacked that is all. It couldn't be helped. Everyone in Brooklyn knew they belonged to our gang. Someone saw them alone and took advantage of that." Said Keiko softly.
"No it wasn't like that. I was with both of them the days they died. I watched as they were killed ruthlessly in front of my eyes. I saw the pain that was there and… I couldn't do a damn thing to stop what I caused. They were killed because they were with me. They were killed because everyone knew they were dear to me." Kagome said now trying to hold back tears.
"Kagome you weren't with Josh the day he died because you came back later that night claiming you went to the park that night and played basketball till it began to rain." Said Izayoi remembering that day.
"And you weren't with Dominique because you said that you went for a bike ride and was training out near the edge of New York City." Said Tai.
"I lied. The day Josh was killed we went to the mall and he took me shopping. That's where I got this necklace", Kagome said as she showed them the gold and silver necklace. "We were walking back and it began to rain so we began to run home. But then we heard gun shots and Josh grabbed me and pulled me under him to protect me. Then when it was over I got from under Josh and found out I was covered in his blood. He died after I hugged him. Then I saw the man who killed him as he got away. I was about to go after him when I heard the police coming. I panicked and ducked into an alley as they took Josh into an ambulance and drove away." Kagome finished as she clenched her fist.
"Kagome." Inuyasha whispered. Pain reflected clearly in his eyes because the suffering his girlfriend endured. Yet Kagome continued completely ignoring Inuyasha.
"Then Dominique. She was raped when we were walking home from the park. I was helpless to help her and worst the people that attacked us made me sit and watch the whole thing. I couldn't turn my head away and when I tried to close my eyes they held them open." Kagome was finding it hard to stop the tears at the memories, "I watched as each of those filthy men hurt her more and more. And when they were done they just shot her 12 times. But amongst the men were two girls. The two of them were the ones who ordered the men to do what they did. Those two bitches were the ones to order the men to go along with the plan and Dominique's death. Do you have any idea who those two were?"
Everyone just shook their heads in to much of a shock at what Kagome endured at such a young age.
"The same girls I almost killed at initiation. Kagura and Kanna."
"No. So that's why-" Said Ayane putting the pieces together.
"I was going to kill them. For what they did. They were following Naraku's orders just as the man was that killed Josh. And then 3 years later after Dom's death I received a note from Naraku at school. It said that Shessomaru was next and then it went on to name everyone in the order that they were going to be killed. Minus Sango because of Onigumo. At the end of the letter it said the only way to prevent anyone else from dying was to leave the safety of the gang. So I decided to leave. I didn't expect Sango to come with me." Kagome said as her head was down still.
Everyone was quiet. How could this have happened? Kagome had been through hell and none of them knew it.
"So what were you going to use the crystal for?" Came Sango's voice barely holding in the tears.
"You were going to use it to revive Josh and Dominique's bodies in the lab weren't you?" Said Keith.
"Bodies? What bodies are you talking about there are no bodies in the lab?" Said Isis looking at he mate.
"It was a secret between me and Kagome when she first came. When we found out about the Crystal she asked me to get the bodies, of what I'm guessing is Josh and Dominique. She wanted me to stop the bodies from decaying till we found the jewel. I agreed and when I asked about it she said she didn't want to talk about. So we put the bodies in a secret room where the access is reserved strictly for me, Kagome, and Hitomi. Hitomi is the one monitoring the bodies and making sure they don't decompose." Finished Keith.
"But shouldn't Josh's body been decomposed at that time?" Asked Miroku.
"I can explain that. Demons decompose at a far slower rate then humans. However one thing is odd. Neither of their bodies shows decay. So I'm still researching to find out why." Hitomi explained.
"I was going to use the jewel to bring them back." Said Kagome.
"Kagome why didn't you tell us this?" Asked Tai looking at his pup.
"Because I didn't want to believe it myself. I've tried for years to rid my mind of the horrible memories but they continue to come back. You don't know the feeling of looking on at a loved ones face as they slowly die and you can't help. You practice and work so hard to get strong and yet it doesn't do a damn thing when you need it most." Kagome said she was shaking now and then her head flew up to reveal her eyes, "And the worst part is it is my entire fault that they died and suffered."
Kagome's eyes held misery, pain, anguish, heartbreak, and worse a broken soul.
Everyone in the room couldn't breath. It was like her pain and anguish was so great that it was chocking all of them.
Kagome could no longer look them in the eyes. She walked out of the room never turning around.
Back in the Room
No one in the room could move. Kagome, everyone knew was a strong person, but they didn't full see how strong till just then. She had seen things at such a young age that many never saw. Dealt with horrors no one should have to deal with. Things that drove those people who did experience them insane. And she did it all on her own with no one to lean on or comfort her.
"I can't believe we never bothered to look deeper into all of this." Said Tai as he stared at the door his daughter left out of. 'I've failed as a father to protect my pup.'
"She's suffered all these years and has kept everything bottled up. We should've noticed." Said Keiko with tears in her eyes.
"I'm going to go check on her." Said Tai as she stood up to leave.
"Kagome has just revealed a great burden I think it would be best if we just let her calm down first." Said Sango, "I know exactly where she went and what she is doing believe me she needs to be alone."
And with that Sango got up and left out the door.
"We should get started. If possible please let Kagome calm down first before you ask questions or pry. It's not easy for old wounds to close again especially when they never fully closed in the first place." Said Keith, "I suggest everyone gets their things from home and bring them here."
Everyone nodded not in much of a talking mood and proceed to get their things from their houses.
3 hours later
Inuyasha had been to his house, packed his things, and unpacked them back at the base. He had his room set up and everything with his passwords and key card to the room done.
Inuyasha chose the empty room across the hall from Kagome's so he would be close by.
No one had said much during the 3 hours after the meet. Their parents simply setting up their own rooms and continued their work concerning the Shikon No Tama.
Miroku was comforting Sango in her room. Souta and Kohaku had gone with Sierra and a newly arrived Kirara on a tour of the place. Shessomaru, Ayane, Bankotsu, and Hitomi were helping their parents. And Ayame, Koga, Hakkaku, and Ginta were sent on a last minute mission.
This left Inuyasha to wander around by himself his thoughts firmly set on one girl. Kagome.
'Kagome you've been through so much and yet you're so strong still. Most people would've probably killed themselves with what you went through. Yet you kept on living trying to avenge the people you lost.' Inuyasha thought.
As he was walking he wasn't exactly paying attention to where he was going. Soon however a familiar alluring scent brought him back to reality.
"Kagome." Inuyasha whispered and began to follow her scent.
Kagome's scent soon lead Inuyasha to a room that said training area.
He opened the door and walked into find himself in a big wide hallway with doors and windows lining the walls. The windows allowed the person in the hallway to see into the room. The doors had words on them telling what the room was used for.
Inuyasha continued down the hall and stopped at a window and looked in to see Kagome. She seemed to be practicing sword techniques by herself. The door used to get into the room said sword fighting in gold letters and swooshed open when Inuyasha touched it.
Once he entered he saw Kagome cutting and slashing at an invisible enemy with smooth and perfected strokes. In the background the song So Much Pain by Ja Rule was playing from the radio in the corner. (I do not own this song. It is by Ja Rule.)
Uhh... yeah, huh, yeah
All my, ... So much pain
Uhh... Huh, yeah
Yeah, so... much...
They'll never take me alive, I'm gettin high with my fo'-five
Cocked on these time to die
Even as a lil' , you could picture me hot gun in the rain
I shed the tear, cause this here inherits the pain
And now I'm labeled as a thug - you know the game
Smokin weed, fuckin hoes, slangin thangs, that's the life I live
Even if I tried to go back I'd get lost (come back)
And everything I seem to love I done lost
Fuck the world if they can't understand me
What else could I do? I had to feed my fuckin family
Yo' lies is my truth, so I'm a drug to your youth
And you don't want 'em nowhere near me, now that they can hear me
I spits razors, never been a stranger to homicide
My city's full of tote-slangers and chalk lines
Why do we die at an early age?
so young, but still a victim of a twelve-gauge
Feel the rage this world has bestowed upon me
And I don't give a fuck 'cause they don't give a fuck 'bout me
So I keep - drinkin Hennessy, bustin at my enemies
Will I live to see twenty-three? There's so much pain'
Kagome was moving gracefully across the room. Doing back flips, jumps, kicks, and lunges all while using her sword on her invisible enemy. Her wounds were opening back up but she ignored the pain.
The city she was born and raised in… Brooklyn. So many people died young there due to gun. She was as familiar with death as she was with the idea of breathing. It was her second nature. Chalk lines were a normal occurrence. Hell she contributed to them. However she never wanted them to be around one of her own.
Chorus
Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhhh
I'm tired of the strain and the pain (so much pain)
Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhhh
I'm tired of the strain and the pain
Years and years of strugglin all my life
Runnin wild as a kid, grew up blazin 'em right
I'm in a - little cell I call my soul lately
It's been a - givin me hell and my heart is screamin, "Don't enter"
I've been cursed, for what it's worth I feel dead
Spittin to you, I know I'm in way over my head
But Lord hear me, I believe in your "7 Day Theory"
Three souls done sent this whole world teary (can you hear me?)
Too hot for you to stand near me
It's so much pain, and wanna kill me
I'm tired of the stress and the strain
But my, grimiest grimeys got love for me
They're blazin, sendin shotguns up above for me
My face in, Hennessy with no chaser
Coke rises on every way in - keep us hustlin
Me and my man got a plan to get this paper
So if you owe , look for the gauge to blow
I figured I'd be considered a killer
Doin crime excited my mind and leadin the blind
I, can't express my compassion, my satisfaction
for gettin fucked up and blastin - we all been there
Taught from young to shoot, show no fear and lie
And wipe the tears from yo' mother's eyes - so much pain
Even when she was younger she knew how to kill and kill efficiently. The gang's motto was 'Kill or be Killed'. She preferred to kill over be killed.
Out in the middle of a fight with a gun in her hand at the age of seven. Shooting. Killing. All to protect those who she cherished only for them to later die. She killed because she knew no one outside her gang family gave a damn about her so why give a damn about them.
After Dominique's death and before Inuyasha came her heart had a clear sign that said Do Not Enter. She couldn't afford to love someone else. She couldn't afford to love anyone other than the people she already did. She might as well have been dead the way her heart was cut off and with how much of her soul had shattered. But then Inuyasha came and opened her heart up. He also helped her with the missing pieces of her soul.
Kagome began to cry.
Chorus - repeat 2X
"They'll never take me alive..."
Ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhh, ohhhhh
I'm tired of the strain and the pain
"They'll never take me alive..."
Ooohhh tired of the strain and the pain
"They'll never take me alive…"
I'm tired of the strain and the pain
"They'll never take me alive..."
Ooooooohhhhhh, nooooooooooooo
"Cocked on these suckers, time to die"
They got me mobbin like I'm - loc'd and ready to get my slug on
I load my clip and slip my motherfuckin gloves on
I ain't scared to blast on these suckers if they test me
Trust, I got my glock cocked, playa if they press me
Bust on motherfuckers with a - PASSION
Better duck 'cause I ain't lookin when I'm - BA-BLASTIN
I'm a nut and drinkin Hennessy
And gettin high on the lookout for my enemies
Don't wanna die, tell me why?
Cause the stress gettin major
A buck-fifty 'cross the face with my razor
What can I do but be a thug until I'm dead and gone
I keep my brain on the game and stay headstrong
These sorry bastards wanna kill me in my sleep
I'm real they can not see
And everyday is just a struggle, steady thuggin on the streets
And I be, ballin loc, don't let 'em make you worry
Keep swingin at these suckers 'til you buried
I was born to raise - hell, a from the gutter, word to mother
I'm tough - I'm kickin dust up, ready to bust
I'm on the scene steady muggin mean; until they kill me
I'll be livin this life, I know you feel me
There's so much pain
Inuyasha's heart bled. She looked like she was in a lot of pain.
'The sad thing is that we could die living the life we do. Our lives are constantly endangered. There is a lot of pain living the lives we do. The only way to have some peace is to get rid of the person who is causing my Kagome so much grief…Naraku. You will pay for what you have done not only to my Kagome but also to me' Inuyasha thought as his own nightmares came back to him.
The life Kagome lived was one he was very familiar with. They didn't have that many differences when it came to the way they were raised besides who they were raised by. Killing people at the tender age of seven. Learning where the major arteries were in the body. How to kill someone without breaking a sweat.
That was all things very familiar to him. The cut off of the heart once you have been hurt enough. A broken soul at all the killing that goes around you. Never aloud to escape.
Then the light once someone special enters your life despite all the barriers you set up 'Kagome'. And then your soul and heart begin to mend despite your past even though it is there and will forever haunt you.
Chorus - repeat 2X w/ variations
Ooooohhhhh, pain
Kagome drove her sword into the ground imbedding it there firmly. She then threw her head back and made a sobbing howl. Her face completely covered by the tears still running from her eyes before falling into a kneeling position, her hands still firmly set on the handle of the blade. She was tired of the pain.
Inuyasha watched the scene in agony. How his heart clenched at the sight of her so weak and broken.
He cautiously walked over to the sobbing girl kneeling next to her. He then took his hand and moved the strands of hair, which were in her face, behind her ear.
Kagome made a startled gasp and looked up into Inuyasha's eyes.
"Kagome it's going to be alright. You aren't alone anymore." He said softly.
Kagome just cried even harder and lunged into Inuyasha's chest clinging onto him like a life line.
"Please Inu. Don't leave me." She sobbed into his chest.
"Shush Kagome. I won't ever leave you. I'm here for you and always will be." Inuyasha said as he rested his head on top of her head.
'I may not have been able to help you all those years ago but I'm here now and that's never going to change.' Inuyasha thought and held onto her tighter.
AN: Wow that was a powerful chapter. Now you all know what has gone on with Kagome yet I have still left gaps. Inuyasha's nightmares what could they be? Are there anymore Moon Goddesses? And why hasn't Josh and Dominique's bodies decomposed yet? Review and find out!
Remember I can't update if I don't know how ya'll feel.
