She smiled as she finished the last bit of work in setting up her new apartment. After everything was said and done with the Shikon, she doubled timed her education, got good grades and was now living in New York. Sure, it was on the other side of the world, but if she had stayed in Toyko, or Japan even, she would be tempted to try and jump into the well.

Gathering the boxes, she folded them and tucked them away for any possible future uses for them. She was just dusting her hands off when when a loud crash sounded in her living room.

Back ramrod straight, it was a few tense seconds later when the sounds of scuffling and grunts filled her apartment. Along with things breaking.

Grabbing the closest thing to her, a broom of all things, Kagome made a mad dash to kick some ass. Well preferably, kick them out of her apartment. With a tight grip on the handle, and the dusty straw bristles in the air and made the short distance to her living room.

Skidding to a stop, she was more upset with the state of her living room than the two beings that were using it as their own personal sparring grounds.

"My apartment!" her weapon drooped as she took in the extent of the damage.

Large hole in her wall, said wall scattered all over the floor, coffee table no longer a table, couch looking like a cat from hell used it as a scratching post. Don't even get her started on her walls! Claw marks, dents, and suspicious looking white sticky substances.

Rounding on the two... males. She wasn't sure what they were, but they had a distinctive spider air about them. One a giant black demonic looking one, the other wearing red and blue that she vaguely recognized. But she didn't care, they had just destroyed her living room!

"You! Out! The both of you out!"

"Listen, lady, it's not-!" the smaller of the two barely dodged a swing of her broom. "I'm the good guy here!"

"I don't care! Out!" she swung her broom once again, growling lowly in her throat when he kept dodging her.

She quickly spun on the large one when he let out amused chuckles. Gritting her teeth and snarling in his direction, she had spent far too much time around dogs of all sorts, she reared her weapon of choice, charged it and thrust it in his direction. The action resulted in blasting him out the hole that was once her wall.

Shoulders heaving with every deep breath, she frowned when the black being laughed some more and climbed up the wall of the building across the street.

"Uh..."

Tensing, she slowly turned her head in the direction where the 'friendly-neighborhood-spider-man' stood with narrowed eyes.

"Sorry! I'll be going now!" just like that, he quickly web-slinged his way after the first one leaving Kagome to shout after him.

"Sorry won't pay for the damages!"

Stepping away from the hole that was a good five stories about the street. Turning around she eyed the mess that was now her living room.

Crossing her arms, she was mentally wondering if it would have been better to stay in Tokyo. "Why is it always spiders?"
