[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
Morning rose, as Kagome had her head buried underneath the pillows, as Buyo slept at the end of the bed. Kagome heard her alarm beeping, as she slammed down on it hard as she yawned, “ Finally, no more freaky dreams.” Kagome sighed in relief grabbing her hairbrush and darting into the bathroom, before anyone else got a chance to.
“ Kagome! Hey, open the door!!” Sota began to bang on the door as Kagome angrily opened the door a crack. “ Sota, you can wait I'm having a shower!” Kagome grinned, as her brother felt the door slam shut right in his face. “ Kagome you don't need one! You have one every single day!!” Kagome began to hear him yelling and banging at the door, as she grinned and slowly turned up the radio volume to drown him out. “ Sorry! Can't hear you!!” She slowly turned up the volume dial alittle bit more.
Sota began to grin and start yelling through the door, thinking of a great plan to make her run out of the bathroom. “ Well fine, but I have that boyfriend's of yours on the phone..” “ Yes, you want a date with Kagome? She's says she already found another guy and you should lay off and never call her again.” Kagome slowly turned down the music, and wrapped a violet towel around her listening. “ Yes Hojo, I'll tell her…” Sota began to snicker holding the phone in his hands with the hugest grin painted on his face.
Kagome's eyes opened wide, when she heard who he was talking to. “ He's not going to do this to me…SOTA!!” She screamed as she flung the door wide open as he sat there with a grin, with the phone to his ear. “ Give me that right now! Sota!” She began to scream and managed to grab the phone from his clutch. Sota watched his sister place the phone to her ear, and went as fast as he could to steal the bathroom. “ Works every time.”
Kagome worriedly grabbed the phone placing it to her ears, “ Hello?! Hojo!?” she began to hear the phone beep, and slammed the phone down with anger when she noticed the bathroom door was shut. “ Sota, open the door you jerk!!” Kagome demanded grabbing the doorknob, as he locked it shut. Sota just snickered as he turned up the volume on the radio exactly like Kagome did. “ Sorry, you snooze you lose!” Kagome's face turned red with rage, as she stood outside in her towel as water began to drip to the floor.
“ Your dead Sota! Do you hear me your dead!”
Eri and the others began smiling, and giggling as they walked up the shrine steps passing underneath the shrine tree. “ She's gonna be so thrilled when she finds out the news between her and Hojo!” Ayumi danced with excitement as all the girls giggled. “ The hottest guy, and the prettiest girl. Why not? She will be thrilled!” They all continued to giggle dressed in they're usual matching outfits, they're school uniforms.
Eri began to ring the doorbell, as they stood impatiently on the porch. “ I can't wait till we tell her!” Yuko jumped with excitement as nobody seemed to answer the door. “ Hmm that's strange..nobody's answering.” They all began to sigh, until they heard things falling over and smashing and Kagome screaming.
“ Sota you jerk give me that!!” Kagome still wrapped in her violet towel as he began laughing and started getting Kagome ticked off. He began flying upstairs, holding her bright red bra over his chest, and began walking down the hallway with his chest sticking out. “ Look I'm Kagome..I think I'm sooo hot and I make myself believe all the guys like me! But really, I'm the ugliest girl alive!” Sota began rolling on the floor laughing so hard until his stomach began to ache. His imitation sounded exact like Kagome, as she stood there with her fists shaking. “ I hate having a younger brother!! He drives me up the wall” She placed her foot on the one steom as her black hair rested against her shoulders. “ Come here Sota..let's have alittle talk…Shall we?”
Her friends sat against the door, as Eri continuously rang the door bell and sighed, “ From what I can tell she's beating up her brother.” Her friends rolled they're eyes. It was no surprise this was happening, because it was an everyday thing over at her place.
As the girls sadly waited, they heard footsteps and looked up to see Hojo, that had a smile that grew from ear to ear. “ Hey, Kagome's home right?” He asked as he was anxious enough to ask her out on a date. The girls sighed as they stared at the ground. “ Oh, she's home alright….”
Kagome finally grabbed Sota's leg, as they heard the doorbell chime throughout the home. “ I'll get it!” Sota screamed with Kagome's bra still around his chest. She watched her brother darting for the door, as she grabbed his leg hoping no one would catch her like this, “ No Sota don't!” Slowly he managed unlocking the door as Hojo stood tall.
“ Hey Kagome, do you wanna go on a….date?” His sentenced drifted when they witnessed Kagome not even dressed, and her young brother wearing her bra. Kagome glanced up, dropping her fist as her face went scarlet when she saw him. “ Never mind you seem busy.” Slowly he waved and disappeared as she managed to kick her brother and sped to get her uniform on. “ Hojo, wait!!” she cried, and he already disappeared into the crazy streets of the city.
Kagome's head dropped down as her long black hair, covered her ashamed hopeless face. “ He's gone Kagome…” Eri placed her hand on her back, as her head flew back glaring at Sota. She quickly grabbed her bra and placed it back into her room where it belonged.
“ I'm going on I'll deal with you later.” Sota quickly stood and gulped when he heard her threaten him.
“ That's a promise….”
Kagome walked along side of the girls, feeling angry he had scared off Hojo, which everyone claimed to be the hottest guy in school. “ Kagome, it's not the end of the world. You shouldn't worry about it.” Eri began telling her, as they marched towards the small center mall. Kagome's hair blew in the breeze, as she glanced of at Eri. “ Tell me if you were in my position, you would think it's the end of the world wouldn't you…?” Eri blankly looked up and sighed. “ Ya probably, there's only one way to get your off something….Shopping!”
The girls grabbed they're cash and dragged Kagome inside, who had the most pitiful look on her face. Yuko grabbed her small red skirt, and elbowed Kagome, “ Hey, lightening up! Here try this on!” Kagome sighed, grabbing her clothing into the change room throwing off her school skirt over the door. “ Hopefully this day doesn't get any worse.. “ Kagome hoped, as he looked at her reflection in the mirror.
The girls knocked on Kagome's change room, “ Come on, we wanna see the skirt on you!” Ayumi yelled in delight, as Kagome timidly walked out with it on. “ Does it look bad on me?” The girls giggled, as Kagome glanced in the mirror, “ It looks good on you!” Kagome grinned delightfully paying. The skirt looked identical to Kagome's, only a different color but she loved it. Kagome felt herself pass almost everything shop in the mall twice, as her feet began to grow heavier by the minute. Her friends had bag fulls of clothing, as Kagome had one article of clothing compared to them. “ Guys, can we stop?” I mean we've been here for hours.” Kagome felt like her knees were going to snap as the girls agreed.
They traveled through the streets and back to Kagome's, “ He's never gonna call me again!” Eri huffed and smacked Kagome upside the head, to knock some sense into her.
“ Kagome, he isn't everything!” They slowly opened the door, dropping they're bags aside. “ Sota, grandpa, mom? Anyone home?” She began to search around the house,to find her young brother playing with his playstation game. “ Is that all you do on a weekend?” Kagome added and placed her foot on his back. Sota rapidly pressed the buttons, practically brain dead from it. “ Basically…” “ So why didn't you answer me?”
Sota didn't answer as Kagome grinned and unplugged the game. “ Kagome! I was winning why did you do that!?” Kagome stood there with the cords in her hands, as the tv went blank. “ Cause you weren't listening!” Go find some friends Sota!” Kagome viciously added as Sota glared at her.
“ I have more friends than you do!” Kagome began laughing as she fixed herself a sandwich. “ Your video game friends don't count!” Sota just stood there fighting with his sister. “ Well at least I'm not ugly..” Kagome grinned, “ At least I'm not stupid…”
“ Ugly! Stupid! Ugly! Stupid!!”
The girls sat back watching, “ Sisterly and brotherly love..” They all began to sigh..
Her mother slowly walked from upstairs with a happy grin on her face like always. “ Kagome your home. I'm making dinner later on tonight. I'm taking Sota to his soccer tournament tonight, and I'll be back at eight. Oh, there's a message on the phone for you..some boy.” Kagome began to grin and gave her something hidden in her hand. “ I bought this for you as an early birthday present. Hope you like it!”
Kagome blinked, as she gotten a beautiful necklace encrusted with diamonds, as her name was spelt out in silver handwriting. Kagome's mouth dropped wide open, “ Mind you, this is from all of us. “ Kagome placed it around her neck, and glanced in the mirror. “ Thank you so much!” Kagome threw her arms around her, as she smiled with delight, “ I'm glad you liked it! Grandpa is going to meet us later. There's food in the fridge for dinner in case were late. Oh, my cell number in case of an emergency. You know how to use the alarm system right?” Kagome sighed, as her mom went on and on as she began to nod. “ Yes mom I'll be alright.” Her mom smiled as Sota was dressed in his jersey bouncing the soccer ball in his hands. Kagome grabbed her brother and lightly hugged him. “ Thanks for the present hopefully you won't…Lose!” Kagome teased as Sota grinned, “ You'll see, I'll come home with a medal you watch!”
“ Bye Sota, Bye Mom!”
Kagome grinned, “ Now we listen to the message.” Her friends gathered around knowing it was Hojo. “ Hey Kagome, sorry about earlier if I interrupted anything. Listen, maybe tonight we can sat, walk to the beach and have a bit to eat, if your not busy. So when you get a chance call me back. I'll be delighted to hear from you!” Kagome had a slight grin on her face, as her friends began to jump up and down. “ Your so lucky! When are you gonna call him?” Eri mentioned dancing around with joy, “ Hmmm later tonight. Let's go get something to eat!”
They slowly walked to the restaurant, to celebrate Kagome's date with the “ Hottest” guy in school. They grabbed they're tray and sat by the far window in the far back. “ So a walk on the beach and dinner? You should be thrilled!” Eri said with enthusiasm as Kagome couldn't help but laugh, “ Guess, anxious and nervous…” Kagome took another small sip of her soft drink, and placed it back on the table. “ So, what do you see you guys doing on this date?” Yuko asked as Kagome was about to answer, when she heard the guy's voice again.
“It isn't living without family you'll learn soon enough.” His deep voice echoed as Kagome screamed, “ I won't!!” Her friends began shaking her. “ Kagome, are you alright?” Kagome shook her head as everyone glanced at her. “ Of course, why?” Her friends began to blink as Kagome looked puzzled. “ Well you were staring into nothing and yelled something out…Does that have anything to do with the dream?” Kagome sighed, she didn't want to explain. She was afraid her friends, would think she was crazy.
She slowly moved her straw in circles, and glanced at them. “ Well it's a dream about a guy…” Her friends jumped in excitement from the last part. “ Is he cute? Is he good looking!?” Kagome just glared at her friends as they gave a smile and back to taking her seriously. “ I can't see his face, but that's besides the point. He just says freaky things, and that happens quite often now. It happened just before I crossed the road.”
The girls stood silence, as they threw food into they're mouths. “ That's alittle freaky Kagome..” Ayumi added as Kagome nodded quickly and added in, “ I don't need a doctor either..I'm not crazy!” Yuko sipped her pop and swung her arms around. “ Never can tell with you, Kagome.” Kagome sighed and gave a light grin.

The sun slowly began to fade in the distance, as they threw they're garbage into the dirty, brown bin.
“ Maybe it's just a night terror..you'll be fine.” Eri added as Kagome calmly smiled as they walked down the outside boutiques. “ Nah, nothing to really worry about, believe me.” Kagome reassured them, as her ivory skirt swayed side to side.
They began to see cop cars up ahead, and men redirecting traffic away from the accident.
“ Ouch, hopefully it's a small hit.” Ayumi thought as Yuki pointing some things out.
“ If there is that many police involved, there's a death for sure.” Kagome felt bad to see a sudden accident. Just thinking about what the rest of the family would suffer and feel if they found out. “ I'd feel bad if it was my family!” Kagome added gloomy, as they set they're sights on something happier. Kagome glanced at the charms and bracelets as she felt a tap on her shoulder.
“ Doesn't your mom own a blue Toyota?” Kagome blankly raised her eyebrow finishing her last fry from the restaurant. “ Umm, ya why?” She cleared her throat and questioned her. “ Isn't the license plate 69 something?” Kagome nodes still slightly confused for why she was questioning her like this. “ Kagome…I think that's your mom's car!!!”
Kagome glanced closer reading the license plate that read exactly her mom's. She began to drop suddenly to her knees, almost like she was limp. She clamped her mouth shut, as tears glistening from her eyes. “ That boy…he said…” Kagome thought completely feeling like her heart was ripped apart and thrown back. “ Why?! Why did this have to happen? Sota, mom, grandpa…they're gone, just like that. Sota was so happy, promising he'd win the trophy..I don't even know if he did! My whole entire family, is gone!”
Maybe if I went to the soccer tournament instead of thinking of myself, this wouldn't have happened!! I want my family back…”
Kagome's tears glistened onto the pavement, as her friends silently sat beside her trying there best to do what ever they could. The car was engulfed by flames as they danced in the wind growing larger. Kagome's eyes opened wide as the tears glistened down her cheek remembering the freaky guy's words. “ It isn't easy living without family you'll know soon enough.”
