[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
“So, have you investigated about this girl?” Naraku asked to his loyal friend and worker.
“Yes, here are some curious things about her…” he took the paper her got and started reading it.
“Name: Higurashi Kagome, School: Midoriko Private High school, Grade: 10th, blood type… you found out her blood type Hakudoshi?” he nodded and Naraku chuckled. “Great, like always”
“It wasn't hard… remember the trash place in which Inuyasha works?” Naraku nodded and got a Cuban cigar into mouth. “There you go; he has been repairing her car… apparently that's how they met”
“IQ? 120? This girl is very smart…” Hakudoshi nodded.
“Maybe that's why Inuyasha asked her out at the mechanic…” Naraku looked at him curiously.
“How are you so sure?” he shrugged his shoulders.
“I think that maybe the way they met… so what's with the sudden interest in this girl?” Naraku took the picture of her and looked at it as he smoked his cigar.
“I don't know… Kikyo is getting me tired; she is wasting it all in drugs… last night I had to pay the band of seven 3 grand for 20 kg of cocaine… she's driving me crazy because Inuyasha isn't here yet with her stuff” he dropped the ashes on his floor. “This girl… where does she live?”
“The address is in there… if you need something else, you know what number to call and how much to pay” Naraku chuckled and his worker walked out the door, he grabbed the picture again and looked at it closely.
“He would be thrilled to know that I found you…” He kissed lightly the picture.

Kagome dressed as fast as she could to her school uniform. She had spent the whole day before studying, doing her homework and making her chores. She brushed her hair quickly, she was late already for the school bus and now she had to ask her mom to take her over there. She grabbed a cracker and ate it as she swallowed some water.
“Mom, could you take me to school?” she asked and her mother nodded sweetly.
“Of course…”
She arrived to school and noticed that the bell just rang, she sighed relieved since her perfect record of assistance wouldn't be ruined. She entered to her first class, pulled out her books and just when she was about to read one a hand pushed it and close it. She looked up to see her best friend very mad.
“What the hell was that?!” she asked and Kagome sighed.
“I'm sorry, something came up and I wasn't able to go back to my house… I couldn't even go to my date with Kouga…” Sango groaned.
“I waited at your house for 2 hours… and Kouga was mad as hell! You know that he almost killed me! I recommended him to date you…” Kagome looked at her a little angry.
“Who asked you to do it?” she looked at her friend offended.
“Are you telling me that you didn't want to date Kouga? As in the hottest man in the whole school? Maybe in earth?” Kagome thought about it, sure Kouga was very cute but she thought about Inuyasha.
“I have seen better…” Kagome mumbled. “I kinda wanted to date Kouga but I wasn't desperate to do it… but I certainly didn't need you telling him to go out with me for pity…”
“You're such a….”
“Good morning class, please sit Miss Taija” the professor interrupted her and she went to her seat.
The rest of day was as usual for Kagome, very interesting in her point of view. Unlike what her classmates and many other people thought she loved the fact that she could learn more things everyday. Her last class ended and she went over to her locker, she opened it and started arranging everything like she usually did. A few minutes before she was done, she felt someone pat her shoulder and when she looked back she saw Kouga standing there with a big smile.
“Kouga…” she said a bit surprised.
“What happened to you? I waited for you a long time and you never showed up…” she gave him a fake smile and giggled a little nervous.
“Well, I got caught up at something and before I noticed it was already late… I'm so sorry, I hope you can forgive me” he let out a chuckle.
“Don't worry about it babe, so when are you not going to be busy?” he asked and she thought about it.
“How about Friday night? This time I'll be ready and waiting for you outside…” she joked and smiled widely. “So… yes?”
“Sure babe, pick you up at 20…” he kissed her cheek and touched her nose lightly with his, he noticed how much she blushed and smiled. “Later”
Kagome walked out school, she thought that it wouldn't be bad to have a date with him but then she remembered Sango's words. “You know that he almost killed me! I recommended him to date you…” she sighed heavily, why was her best friend acting like that now? She was very hurt by her words, it make her think that Sango was feeling sorry for her and begged Kouga to try to look at her. `Am I that hideous? Am I that horrible like not to get a guy's look?' she felt somehow tears gathering around her eyes but she just swallowed hard and stopped them from falling.
She decided to stop at a coffee shop to drink something; she didn't want to go home now and let her mom know what was bothering her. Kagome sat at a table and pulled out one of the books she rented the other day, she heard the door open and when she looked up she found Inuyasha. She was shocked for a moment but immediately gathered the courage to talk.
“Inuyasha” she called and he directed his gaze to her, she waved at him friendly and he smiled as he went to sit next to her.
“So…. now you decided to follow me wench?” he asked and she got a little angry.
“No, I stopped here for something to drink and my name is Kagome” he rolled his eyes. “What are you doing here?”
“I'm out of work and most of the times I spend sometime here” he answered and she nodded, she sighed.
“Do you think I'm pretty?” she asked and he looked at her dazed.
“What?” he asked lowly and she smiled embarrassed.
“I'm sorry; I don't know where that came from… I just… never mind” she looked away as she tried to forget that moment; he grabbed her face and forced her to look at him.
“Why would you think that you're not pretty?” he asked, still holding her face, she blushed furiously.
“I just… started thinking about some things my friend said, I thought that maybe she was right and I decided to ask someone…” she blushed even more when he smiled.
“Well, to tell you the truth you're not pretty at all…” she felt her heart sink and was about to cry when she heard him speak again. “You're gorgeous”
“Thanks a lot…” she blushed and looked away.
Inuyasha kept looking at her as she drank some of her coffee and read her book. `Why did I tell her that? I don't want her to get involved in this… I can't let her get involved in this, I will just hurt her…' he sighed and finished his drink, he stood up and she stopped reading.
“You're leaving?” he nodded.
“I got some stuff to do… and I can't keep fooling around” she sighed.
“Alright…” he walked out there when he heard her voice again. “Inuyasha!”
“What?” she vacillated for a few seconds before asking her question.
“Um… can we… would you… like to go out with me? Sometime?” he rubbed his temples and walked next to her.
“Listen, you're a very nice girl and all but… I couldn't deal with risking you with my world, I don't want you to hurt you so… stay away from me” he walked away and Kagome felt her heart stop beating, she went back inside and let a few tears roll down her cheeks.
“Would you like… are you okay?” the waitress asked and she nodded as she gave her a smile.
“Yeah… could you please bring me another cup of coffee?” the waitress nodded, still not convinced by her words. “Thanks a lot”

Inuyasha went to Naraku's place, he had forgotten about the package and was about to deliver it. He knew that Naraku was always buying some drugs; he thought that he sold them to get more money but he was worried about Kikyo. `I should have never let you be part of my life… I promised myself I would never make the same mistake twice and I can't let you get down to that black whole were you only lived for drugs' he thought as he finally reached the last floor. He walked out and entered Naraku's office, he found him counting some money while he smoked.
“Don't you know how to knock?” he asked as he placed away his cash.
“Is not like you're doing something important…” he replied and threw the small package on his table.
“Finally! I thought you would never come” he opened the package and pulled out small bags filled with white dust. “Yeah, just the way I wanted it…”
Inuyasha sighed and sat in front of him, he was very worried about the things Kagome had told him last time. “Did you give her drugs too?” `She would have never asked that if she hadn't seen her drugging herself… what if the box I just brought was for her? I can't let her go through that hell again…' he thought with determination.
“Why are you still here Inuyasha?” Naraku asked curious and he sighed.
“For who are the drugs and don't lie to me” he warned and Naraku looked at him with arrogance.
“That's for me to know and for you not to concern” he shot back and Inuyasha got furious.
“I swear that if that's for Kikyo I'll…”
“What?! You will do what?!” he cut him off and Inuyasha looked at him with anger. “You are not in the position of threading someone, especially me!” he yelled. “Now get out of my sight before I do something I will regret”
Inuyasha got up immediately and slammed the door on his way out. Naraku looked at the box and made himself a line, once he got it inside him. He packed the things again and went to his main bedroom. He looked at his girl biting her nails a little perturbed; once she saw him entering she smiled.
“I thought you forgot about it…” she said as she grabbed the box. “Where did you get them?”
“I got some connections…” she opened the box and he went over to the door.
“Don't you want some?” she asked and he shook his head.
“I have more work to do…”
He went back inside the other room and pulled out the picture that Hakudoshi had brought him. Naraku looked at the girl, he couldn't stop staring at her no matter what she meant to Onigumo, he grabbed his cell phone and dialed the number of one of his most trustful partners.
“Come over here immediately… get Kagura to help you and once you're here look for a girl with the last name Higurashi”

Kagome knew it was late, she didn't care. Kagome knew her mother would be mad and worried, she didn't care. Kagome knew that tomorrow she had school, for the first time in a very long time she didn't care. The only thing Kagome cared about know was about getting rid of that horrible feeling inside her, the feeling of rejection. She walked slowly over to her house, she was very near her house it was only two blocks away.
“Higurashi Kagome?” she heard a feminine voice ask and she turned around, she saw a black haired girl with weird red eyes standing behind her.
“Yes, who are you?” she asked curiously, who was this girl and how did she know her name?
“No one important, you live a few blocks away from here… am I right?” Kagome was getting scared now.
“If you don't tell me who you are, I'm calling the police” she warned and the girl laughed.
“It's a little too late…”
Kagome suddenly felt someone grab her from behind, they placed a towel over her mouth and as she breathed she felt some weird aroma that she had never experienced before. She struggled to get free but she felt her body lighter each time, she felt her strength going away and finally she felt her eyes closing slowly as the grip of her kidnapper went softer.
“Sweet dreams” she heard the girl say before Kagome's mind and view went black.
