My Nightmare
Summary: Her fairy tale life has now become her worst Nightmare. Mrs. Kagome Takahashi thought that her story had ended perfectly with an amazing husband, three gorgeous kids, the world's greatest family and a kingdom rule. Her joyous days will soon be ending because her beloved older sister Kikyo is back on the prowl and the man she wants is none other than Kagome's husband and mate, Inuyasha. Kikyo is prepared to see this to the end and this time, she just might win.

"You're delusional, you're delusional,
Girl you're losing your mind.
It's confusing yo, you're confused you know,
Why you wasting your time?"
..x..
"So, we're going to look around town, and then we're to the school to talk to some of the children?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yes, that's right." Kagome said.
"And where will you be?" This question was directed at Kikyo, who sat across from them in the limo. Inuyasha and Kagome had a bit of a disagreement when it came to whether they should keep using the carriages or not. They eventually decided that when they were riding into town on business they would use a limo, and when they were coming for other reasons they would use the carriage.
"I'm going to be at the school with the children." She answered with a raised brow.
"Meaning that you'll be as far away from me as possible. Sounds like a plan."
"Inuyasha! Stop being so rude." Kagome scolded him with a frown.
Here we go again. He wondered how she could be so sweet and forgiving. Wait...
"Did you drink anything funny recently?" Inuyasha asked, as he stared into her eyes.
"What?"
"What about your food? Did you eat something that had a funny taste?"
"What the heck are you talking about Yash?"
"I'm just checking. You know what they say, 'old habits die hard.'"
Kikyo looked away. Inuyasha could tell that she had been thinking about it. He wondered if he could get her to slip up and make Kagome finally see her for who she was.
"Inuyasha, how long are you going to hold on to this grudge?" Kagome asked.
"Who knows Kag, seconds chances they don't ever matter, people never change. Once a liar, you're nothing more. I'm sorry, that will never change."
"Will you stop being so damn vague and confusing? It's starting to give me a headache."
"He just quoted the song I sang the night you broke the spell I put on him." Kikyo said.
"You remember?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yes, and apparently, you do as well."
"Was I not supposed to?"
"No, actually, the woman that I got the necklace from told me that the person that I put it on would most likely have no memory of anything that happened while the spell was over them."
"Guess that means I'm special."
"Indeed, very special..."
Kagome looked at Kikyo with a little bit of suspicion and worry in her eyes after that last reply. Now all Inuyasha had to do was push Kikyo a little bit more.
"You know now that I think about it, there was a certain part of that song that I really liked."
"And what part was that?"
"I think it went, 'just watched my wildest dreams come true, not one of them involving you.'"
"What does this have to do with anything?" Kagome asked.
"Nothing really, I just thought I'd share something about it that I liked. Want to know why I liked that part? It's because it reminds me of the wonderful life that I have with you, love." Inuyasha leaned over and kissed Kagome and she smiled after he did and put her head on his shoulder. Kikyo on the other hand understood what he meant and was pissed.
"Oh, I almost forgot, we have to do something when we go home Yash." Kagome said excitedly.
"It doesn't have to do with playing dress up with Hana and Shiro again does it? Last time they put so much glitter in my hair it stayed in for an entire week." He shuddered at the memory of the sparkly silver stuff.
Kagome laughed. "No, it isn't about playing dress up. When San came over she said that the kids wanted to see everybody soon so we need to make a day for that."
"That sounds good, I'll move some stuff around so that we'll be able to do it."
"Great! I'll call Sango and tell her once this is over."
The ride was silent after that and it continued that way until they reached town. The limo stopped in front of the mayor's office, who was already outside waiting for them.
"It's so good to see you King Inuyasha and Queen Kagome. Thank you for coming." Mayor Ichiban said with a huge smile. To Inuyasha and Kagome, Ichiban is their eyes and ears. He helps them out by seeing to all the things that need improvement in the country and telling them about it so that they can fix whatever it is. They elected him after they realized that they couldn't see to everything themselves. He's a thirty-year-old man with cinnamon colored hair and a nice, strong body. He also happened to be an old friend of Sesshomaru, which is another reason he was elected.
"It's our pleasure sir, really." Kagome said with a smile of her own.
"And welcome to you as well, Princess Kikyo. We are so happy that you'll be visiting the children today." Ichiban said.
"I can't wait to meet them. I love children." Kikyo said.
"Right this way then. The school is just a few buildings down." Ichiban took them to a building with stone walls, clear windows, and a big blue wooden door.
"This building holds children through grades one to twelve. The first floor has grades one, two, three, and four. The second has grades, five, six, seven, and eight. And the last one has–"
"Let me guess, nine, ten, eleven and twelve?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yes, that's right. This is one of the things we'd like to discuss with you. We'd like it if we could build a building or two for the other grade levels."
"Like one for the younger children and one for the older ones?" Kagome asked.
"Yes exactly. The children that you'll be entertaining today are right in here, Your Highness. These are the children in grade three and they are just about hopping out of their seats in excitement to meet you in person." Ichiban said in front of the door labeled 302.
"Well I guess I shouldn't keep them any longer, should I?" Kikyo said and went in.
"Would you two like to look around town, stay here for a bit, or get right to business?" Ichiban asked Inuyasha and Kagome.
"I'd like to get right to business, but I know that Kagome really wants to see what needs improving in town." Inuyasha said.
"I also want to say hello to the children." Kagome said.
"Then how about we look around, talk, and come back to the kids?"
"That's sounds perfect, lead the way Mayor Ichiban."
"Yes, of course. Please follow me."
He took them out of the building and led them down the street where to the waiting limo.
"We don't need to ride in the limo, sir. Walking is just fine." Kagome said.
"Are you sure, Your Majesty?" Ichiban asked.
"Yes, we'll be fine. Right, Inuyasha?"
"I don't have a problem with walking." He said.
"Okay then, how about we start–"
"Oh, good, you haven't left yet."
The three of them turned around and saw Kikyo walking over to meet them.
"Was there a problem, Your Highness?" Ichiban worriedly asked.
"Yes, and no, actually. I told the kids that Kagome and Inuyasha were also in town, and now they wanted to see them." She explained.
"We're going to come back." Kagome said.
"I thought so, and I told them that, but they all started crying and begging the teacher to bring you in."
"Well I suppose we could go in before we do anything else."
"But you both have so much to do today, and it might take a while with the children."
"That's... well... what should we do?"
"Maybe one of you could say with the children and I while the other goes with Mayor Ichiban? And then when you finish with him you could come back here, say hello to the children, and have that meeting."
Inuyasha had a feeling that he knew where this was headed. He didn't like it one bit.
"Good idea Kikyo. Do you want to go with Ichiban while I stay with Kikyo and the kids?" Kagome asked Inuyasha.
"You really wanted to go into town, right?" Inuyasha sighed, of course Kikyo thought this through and had a plan for it. Damn her. "I'll stay here, and you go with Ichiban."
Kagome's face lit up and she kissed his cheek.
"Are you sure you don't mind?" She asked.
He minded. "I don't mind at all, it's no problem."
"In that case, we'll make it really quick and we'll be back soon. Are you ready Mayor?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. Would you still like to walk?" Ichiban asked.
"I did, but we need to make this quick so let's take the limo."
Once they got in and drove off, Inuyasha turned to Kikyo and glared at her.
"How long have you been planning this?" He asked.
"Since you pulled that little stunt on the way here." She said with a laugh and started walking back to the school.
"And how did you get the kids to play along?"
"That was simple, actually. They all really wanted to meet the king and queen and when I said that the both of you were here, but might not have the time to visit them, they all started bawling."
"You knew that we were going to come back."
"I did? Huh, funny how I don't remember hearing that."
They reached the classroom, but before Inuyasha could open the door, Kikyo pushed him against a wall.
"What the fu-"
"Shush, my love, and listen to me. I love you with all my heart, and I only wanted to spend some time alone with you. Is that so wrong?"
"Yes, you psycho!"
The door to the classroom flew open, and a lady, most likely the teacher, walked out. She had paint covered clothes and short blonde hair.
"Is everything okay out here? I heard some screaming through the walls, although they were muffled." She said looking between them.
"Yes, ma'am, everything is okay, I lost my footing and nearly fell. Inuyasha was just helping me back up, and scolded me for being so clumsy." Kikyo said, having already moved away from Inuyasha.
"Are you okay?"
"Yes ma'am."
"That's good, welcome, King Inuyasha. The children are very excited to see you. I'm Weddie Yamada."
"Hello, Mrs. Yamada, I'm excited to meet the children too. Shall we go in?" Inuyasha entered the classroom and the children gasped.
"Look! It's King Inuyasha!" Someone yelled.
All the children looked up and ran over to Inuyasha.
"Is it fun being a king?"
"Can you do whatever you want?"
"Do you get to eat cakes every day?"
"Are you married to Princess Kikyo?"
"Whoa, whoa, slow down guys!" Inuyasha laughed. "Okay no, being king isn't much fun because there's a lot of work to do. No, I can't do whatever I want, but I wish I could. I could eat cake every day but that isn't very healthy. And no, my wife is Queen Kagome and she'll be here to see you all very soon."
"Children, let's all take our seats and stop crowding the king, okay?" Yamada said.
They all did as told and Yamada gave him an apologetic smile. "I'm sorry, they got a little excited."
"That's okay, but how about we do something instead of sitting around?" Inuyasha said.
"Like what?"
"Can we play a game?" A kid asked.
"That sounds like fun, what should we play?" Kikyo asked.
"Can we play... no, never mind." A little girl tried to ask. She was small, could've been the smallest in the class. She had wavy brown hair that was up in messy pigtails and wore a slightly dirty white shirt, navy blue jean skirt with white stockings underneath that had a few holes in them and scruffy black dress shoes.
"Hi, what's your name?" Inuyasha asked and knelt by the girl.
"Whoa, look, he's talking to Nami." Someone whispered.
"No one ever talks to her." Someone else said.
Yamada sighed and bent down to whisper to Inuyasha.
"Her name is Nami Basu and she's a very quiet girl. Some of the other kids have tried to talk to her, but she's very shy and just won't open up to anyone."
Inuyasha looked over at Nami, who had her hands folded in her lap and her head down. Something about her was... it interested him. He smiled and talked to her again.
"Hey Nami, you were going to say a game. What did you have in mind?" He asked.
"Well... I... used to play hide and seek... with my old friends at the foster home. It was fun and... never mind..."
Inuyasha wanted to know more about this foster care thing and he was going to ask Yamada later, but for now, he stood up and looked at the other children.
"It's really nice out today. How about we go outside and play some hide and seek?"
The kids all jumped up and cheered except for Nami. She was so surprised.
"That's an excellent idea! We can go right out back to the playground. Children, do you mind leading King Inuyasha and Princess Kikyo out while I leave a note on the door?"
Some of the kids grabbed their coats and others ran right out while Yamada grabbed a piece of paper and a marker. Kikyo was a little annoyed that she wasn't getting the time she wanted from Inuyasha, but that might change with this silly game.
"Hey, do you mind walking out with the princess while I talk to Mrs. Yamada?" Inuyasha asked Nami. He could tell she was waiting for him, and he wanted to go with her, but he needed to talk to Yamada.
She didn't look happy about it, but she agreed to walk with Kikyo.
"What's on your mind?" Yamada asked after they left while she was putting the sign on the door.
"I want to know more about Nami." He answered, getting right to the point.
Yamada sighed and sat in her chair. "Have a seat, this may take a while."
..x..
"...seven ...eight ...nine ...ten! Ready or not here I come!" A girl named Ali said and started looking for everyone.
After Inuyasha finished talking to Yamada, the two of them went outside to join the rest of the children and Kikyo. What she told him was everything he was and wasn't expecting, and he wanted nothing more than to help the poor child out any way he could. He'd start when Kagome came back with Ichiban so that he could talk to her first. Right now, he was hiding behind a tree close to Nami who was behind a bush because she wanted him to hide with her. And unfortunately, Kikyo hid behind the same tree with him because it was wide enough to hide the both them. He wanted to tell her to go away, but couldn't because he didn't want to scare Nami off.
"Isn't this fun darling? I hope that girl never finds us." Kikyo whispered to Inuyasha.
"For someone that supposedly loves children, you sure have a hard time remembering their names." Inuyasha said. Even with most of his focus being on Nami, he still managed learn almost everyone's name.
"Did I upset you? I'm sorry love, but I can't help but give you my full and undivided attention."
"I am not your darling, or your love, so shut up now." He yelled whispered.
"Wow, you didn't scream my head off this time. Why is that? Is it because the mousy one is watching?"
Nami was in fact looking over at them every moment or so, and occasionally she'd smile when she saw that Inuyasha was smiling at her too. He was only going to be able to put up with Kikyo and her crap for so much longer. He wanted Ali to hurry up and find them.
"Let's keep her! I like that she keeps you under control and stops you from screaming my head off." Kikyo continued.
"Were you always this crazy? And do nottalk about her as if she is a pet."
She ignored him and laughed. "With her watching us like a damn hawk it'll be hard to touch you," She ran her hands down his back. "But I'm not afraid to try."
His demon flared up at someone other than his mate touching him in an intimate manner and it took everything he had to calm it down.
"Kikyo... if you know what's good for you..."
"I found you! You aren't very good at hiding."
Inuyasha was surprised to see Kagome laughing in front of him, but hell he wasn't complaining at all.
"Hey you," He picked her up and twirled her around. "Have a nice time with Ichiban?"
Kikyo was pissed that her time was interrupted again, and this time by her own damn sister. But it was okay, soon, very soon, she would finally have the love of her life.
"Oh, Inuyasha it was amazing! Everything was great, and our spot is still there, untouched." She whispered the last part.
"Glad to hear it." He was going to have to find time to take her back there.
"You found them! Good job Queen Kagome!" Ali said and clapped for her.
"Hold on, who is that hiding over there?" Kagome went over to Nami and got down to her level, not caring about the dress she was getting dirty.
"That over there is Nami Basu. She's a little shy." Inuyasha introduced.
"Nami? That's the cutest name ever. Hello sweetie, I'm Kagome." Kagome reached out to Nami with a smile.
Nami looked at Inuyasha as if to make sure it was okay and he nodded. Just as she was about to take Kagome's hand someone yelled from the back door of the school.
"Where the hell is that little girl? I've got shit to do!" A man in a suit screamed at Yamada and marched over to her.
Yamada glared at the man and met him half way.
"How many times have I told you not to use that foul language here?" She scolded him.
"And how many times have I told you to get her ass ready to go by three?"
Inuyasha was pissed. Yamada had told him about Mr. Basu earlier when he asked about Nami. Yamada had said that he was a rude and fowl man and that she didn't understand why he had adopted Nami when he didn't seem to care for her much. Kagome could tell that there was something wrong, so she stood up and kept Nami behind her.
"What's going on?" She asked Inuyasha.
"Can I tell you later? I think I need to deal with this." Inuyasha raised a hand to the guards that were standing by the door before they could step in. He started walking over to Yamada and Basu, but Kagome grabbed his arm to stop him.
"Deal with it how?"
"Have a little faith Kag, I won't do anything stupid."
She was still worried, but she let him go and watched from a distance with Nami and Kikyo. Some of the children had joined them, and the others stayed where they were, afraid to move.
"...will you just go and get her already? I'm late enough as it is!" Basu said, getting frustrated.
"Excuse me, but are you Mr. Basu?" Inuyasha asked.
"Who wants to know?" He said and glared at Inuyasha.
"You don't know who I am?" That surprised him, everyone should've known who he was. He was the king after all.
"Should I know who the fuck you are? Get out of my face, I don't have time for this shit."
"Mr. Basu! Watch your language!" Yamada said again.
"Does it look like I give a rat's ass about what I say in front of all these little piss ants? Go and get that girl!" Mr. Basu said and took a step closer to Yamada.
..x..
Nami watched her adoptive father and knew that he was just going to get angrier if she didn't hurry up and leave. She had to get over there, but would the queen let her?
"I... I should go. He... he might... he might get angrier." Nami said and pulled on Kagome's dress to get her attention.
"I'm sorry sweetie, but I refuse to let you go anywhere with that man." Kagome said and took Nami's hand.
"But... but... I... he..."
"Don't worry, King Inuyasha will take care of it. Kikyo, will you take the children inside? It's bad enough that poor Nami has to listen to this."
Kikyo nodded and took the children back inside to the classroom. Looks like day with Inuyasha was over.
..x..
"None of those kids are the brat so, where is she?" Mr. Basu asked as he watched the kids go back inside with some lady. A hot lady, he felt the need to add.
"Her name is Nami, and I'm afraid that she won't be going anywhere with you." Inuyasha said.
"What? That's funny man. What are you going to do? Take her from me?"
"Actually, I was–"
"There you are, you little shit, get over here and let's go, now!" Basu said, finally noticing Nami behind Kagome.
"What did you just call her? And I said that she isn't going anywhere." Inuyasha said.
Basu ignored him again and walked over to Kagome and Nami.
"Let her go lady. I don't know what you people think you're doing today, but it ain't funny."
"My husband already told you that she isn't going anywhere with you. In fact, I believe he told you twice." Kagome said and pushed Nami behind her some more.
"Let. Her. The. Fuck–"As Basu reached out to move Kagome, Inuyasha was there in an instant and crushed his hand.
"Ow! What the fuck you bastard! Do you know who I am?"
"No, I don't, but I know that you aren't someone that has more power than I do." Inuyasha said.
"Oh, yeah buddy? I own this town! You'll be sorry you ever picked a fight with me!"
"Really? You may think that you own this town, but you're wrong. We do. And you're going to be sorry that you picked a fight with the king,and also tried to lay a hand on the queen." Kagome smirked. She could be scary when she wanted and Inuyasha loved this side of her (sometimes).
"You've got to be fuckingkidding me!"
"Language, Mr. Basu." Yamada said.
..x..

This was ten pages long good lord! Love me! Jk xD but yeah there's chapter two and Nami was not planned, she just happened (no joke intended). Can you guess what kind of a past she's had?
And I know that some people are a little OOC like Kagome but I promise there's a reason for it! Just hang on and it'll all make sense eventually.
