Gone :

It was about eight that night. Kagome was reading a magazine, when there was a knock at the door. "Who's that?" She asked herself, as she went to answer the door. Kagome opened the door, to see a man with sunglasses, staring at her. "You must be Ms Higurashi?" The man asked. Kagome gulped and nodded. There was something about the man that she didn't like. The man took his sunglasses off, revealing blue eyes. He laughed, and knocked the girl out. Kagome fell to the floor. There was blood seeping threw her head, from where she had been hit. "Hojo. I know you want revenge, but go easy on the girl." A voice from behind said. "It's the bosses' job to make her life miserable." The voice said, with a laugh. Hojo nodded, and put the girl on his shoulder. He shoved her into his black truck, and drove off.

"What if InuYasha doesn't dump the girl?"

Hojo asked.

"Oh he will. He seems to CARE about this girl more than others."

The man said, while turning to the backseat.

"Hmph. She's not even that good-looking. She looks like she was just in a battle."

"The boss said that she was."

Hojo said, as he passed a stop sign.

Next Day : Missing : Heart-Broken

The next day, Sango had called all her friends to her living room. She was alittle shocked, that her Hanyou friend, had agreed to come. "What's this all about?" Suki asked. A tear fell down Sango's face. "Where's Kagome?" She said in a whisper. InuYasha felt his heart skip-a-beat. "What the hell are you talking?!" He yelled. Sango wiped her tear. "Her boss from work called her mother saying why she hadn't been at work, then Kagome's mother called me." She said, while eyeing all her friends. "Now, has ANYONE seen her?" She asked. Everyone shook their heads. InuYasha stood, and stormed out-of the room. "This had better-not be a joke!" He said to himself, as he opened the front-door. As he opened the door, a warm feeling struck his cheek. "YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE WATCHING HER!" Lulu yelled. Her face was red, and tear-stained. InuYasha put a claw to his face, and walked towards his car. "I can't find my little girl." Lulu said in a whisper, as she broke-down to tears. InuYasha turned, and walked-back to the woman. He wrapped his arms around her, and hugged her. He didn't notice ... that he had started to cry, as well. "Where the hell could she have gone?! I don't smell her scent."

Hell on Earth :

Kagome slowly opened her eyes. It was her second day of hell. She was hung by chains, about a foot from the ground. She hadn't eaten, or dranken anything. Kagome glared at the woman who had just entered the room. "Kagome. Nice to see you, again." Rini said with a laugh. Kagome didn't respond. She turned her head to the side. "Cheer up. Atleast with YOU here, InuYasha will be happy." Rini said with a smile. Kagome tried not to cry. "I bet that you're wondering why I care about InuYasha so much?" Rini said. Still ... no answer. "I care about him ... because I love him. Nothing's gonna get in my way to make him mine. Not even YOU." Rini said with a glare. Kagome closed her eyes. "Alright. You can stay silent, or you can die." Rini said, as she pulled-out a knife. "You or InuYasha?" She said, as she held-up the knife to the girls right-arm. When Kagome didn't answer, Rini chunked the knife into her arm. When she was done ... she laughed and left. Kagome stared at her bleeding arm. "I'll do anything for InuYasha."

InVestigation :

The first place InuYasha checked, was his Miget's house. It was strange. Her scent was faded. InuYasha gasped, when he saw drop-lets of blood ... on the floor. What could have happened that would make Kagome bleed? InuYasha didn't bother finding-out the answer. He was gone in a flash. "You had better be alright so I can yell at you!"

Three Days Later : News Report

"This is Yuka Akai, channel 8, eye-witness news. We're here with investigator, "X" Buff, to talk about the Kagome Higurashi disappearence."

Yuka turned to Buff.

"So you say that you had a connection with the girl?"

Buff nodded.

"I was the janitor at Shikon High School."

"How did you manage to become a detective?"

Buff shrugged.

"Never mind about me. I'm only concerned about finding the girl."

"So how did she disappear?"

Yuka asked with interest.

"No-one's sure. We have no eye-witnesses, no clues, no ... nothing."

"How do you plan to crack this case?"

"Nobody knows. We're just hoping that nothing happened."

Yuka turned to the audience.

She was hoping that there'd be more about the Kagome Higurashi case.

"And that concludes the Kagome Higur-" Click.

InuYasha turned the TV off, tears in his eyes. He was tired, and depressed. He had hardly slept for the past two days. The only time he'd slept, was when he'd dozed-off, thinking about his Miget. All InuYasha wanted, was to hold the girl in his arms, and never let-go. "I see you saw the news." Miroku said with a sigh, as he took a seat next to his bestfriend. The first tear fell from InuYasha's face. "You're my bestfriend ... right?" He asked. Miroku was wide-eyed. "Yes. Why? What's on your mind?" He asked. More tears fell. InuYasha hid his eyes under his bangs. "Do you think she's ... alive?" He asked in a whisper. Miroku didn't know what to say. "Is that what's been bothering you? She SHOULD be fine." He said with a small smile. InuYasha broke-out into tears like a newborn child. "WHAT IF SHE'S DEAD RIGHT NOW!" He yelled. Miroku's face turned pale. He wrapped his arms around his bestfriend, and hugged him. "Shhh ... stop talking like that!" He yelled. InuYasha closed his eyes, and cried silent tears. "You can't be dead! You can't ... you just can't. I don't know what I'd do without you!"

Torture :

"You still don't wanna talk?!" Rini yelled, as she swipped her knife against Kagome's now infected skin. Kagome didn't answer. She just hung her head. She had DEEP cuts almost all-over her body. Kagome could tell that they were infected. She didn't care. She wanted her life to end. Silent tears fell from her face. "Kagome. It was either you ... or InuYasha. And you chose InuYasha. You're VERY lucky that you didn't choose your-own freedom. Or else, InuYasha would be DEAD right now." Rini said with a smile, as she left. "Make-sure she stays awake. I don't wanna risk her dying. Fill her cuts." She said to Hojo, as she left. Hojo nodded, and reached to his right. There, was a bucket of a green substance. Kagome watched the man that she'd come to hate. "Hojo ... why?" She managed to ask, using most of the energy that she'd been saving. Hojo glared at the girl. "Isn't it obvious? I work for Rini now because my heart is sober, ruined, broken. Call it whatever you want. And, it's ALL your fault." He said with a sigh, as he lifted the bucket. There was a plastic spoon in it. "All I ever wanted ... was you. And, you wouldn't have me. Do you know how-much it hurt? Now, you're going to know what it feels like." Hojo said with a perverted smile, as he approached the girl. He dipped the spoon into the bucket, and held it-up to a deep cut on Kagome's right-arm. He shoved the substance into the wound. Kagome cried in pain. She promised herself that she wasn't going to loose control. Not THIS time.

(1o Mintes Later ...)

"Feeling any better?" Hojo asked, as he put the spoon back into the bucket. It was nearly emtpy. "This chemical should make you delerious. You'll start seeing things." Hojo said, as he threw the bucket against the brick wall. Kagome opened her droopy eyes. Her couldn't feel one part of her body. She could only feel her wrists, that were red, from being tied to chains. "Bastard ..." Kagome said in a mumble, as she dozed-off. Hojo laughed. "I'm supposed to do this once every day. Get used to it." He said, as he left the room. He decided to ignore Rini's orders, and let the girl sleep. It seemed like she needed it.

Dreaming Of You : A Kagome Dedication

"Kagome?! Are you okay?"

"What the hell was that for?!"

"You've got serious problems ..."

"Come on! You know that I love you!"

"Shhh ... it's okay."

"I promise that I'll catch you!"

"I'll see-ya in two weeks!"

"I'm sorry. Did I wake you?"

"Aren't you gonna yell at me? Call me stupid?"

"Miroku says that you two are friends again?"

"I don't even know who this girl is, and I think that I like her. She must have known me since the 8th grade. I've got alot of thinking to do."

"I'll see-ya tomorrow!"

"Kagome ... I love you."

Kagome woke-up in a sweat. She started crying. She had drempt about her boyfriends voice. "Something the matter?" Hojo asked from the shadows. Kagome didn't answer. She just cried. "Stop it!" Hojo yelled. "Jesus, since when did you get so annoying?" He shouted. Kagome didn't care. She continued crying silent tears. Her tears fell onto the cuts on her face; making her face itchy and sting. Kagome wished that she had access to her hands. "Leave her alone. This is just what I wanted to happen to her." Rini said, as she showed herself. Kagome lifted her head, and glared at the woman. "You should be crying. I bet that you just had a dream about InuYasha." Rini said. "And, by the look on your face I can tell that it was a good dream." She said. She stepped-forward, knife in hand. "Are you ready?"
