[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

I turned as fast I could around, I tried to sneak over to the stairs before anyone caught me. However, Everyone seemed to look around and stare at me at just the right time. I was stuck, there was no escape this time. I was a wolf cornered by hunters.

“Brother? Inuyasha is this true?” Kagome asked. You can still run there has to be some way out of this quick start gnawing at your arm if it works for trapped coyotes it should work now.

“Inuyasha is this where you have been all these years?” Sesshomaru said straight faced. He hadn’t changed since the last time I saw him. His old leather jacket looking just as raggedy as before with patches hanging on by a thread and spikes missing. His silver Mohawk was down, but he still kept it long and parted to the left.

“Only for a month or two.” Please tell me I’m not talking to my brother and this is some sick dream.

“Inuyasha why didn’t you tell me you had a brother?”

“Well Kagome…I guess it just slipped my mind.”

“Inuyasha means to say that he didn’t want to take responsibility for what he did.” Sesshomaru sounded cold. He really hasn’t changed.

“I don’t have anything to take responsibility for!”

“Then why did you leave and have been running around all these years?” Everyone remained silent and looked back and forth between Sesshomaru and me unsure of what was happening.

“I had to leave, you made that very clear and besides I needed out of that fucking place! Look Sesshomaru I don’t want to talk about this now or ever, just go back home.” This time I continued to the stairs without looking back. I’m sure leaving my friends are feeling uncomfortable with Sesshomaru still standing there, but I can’t deal with that right now. I need air. I need a better reality.

Kagome stood there bewildered and shocked. Inuyasha’s brother was still at the door staring with cold blue eyes unmoved by his brother’s words and movements. She didn’t know what to do no one did.

“So you and Inuyasha are brothers huh? What‘s your name?” Sango said jumping down from her place on the bar counter.

“It‘s Sesshomaru.”

“I must say you’re a lot cuter than him and a lot of the boys around here.”

“Sango! Your killing me.” Miroku whimpered.

“Shut up Miroku!” Sango yelled turning her attention back to the beautiful stranger at the door.

“Perhaps it is best that I come back later.” Sesshomaru said getting ready to draw close the door. “Oh before I leave tell my brother that Kikyo and myself will see him at the show.”

“Who’s Kikyo?” Kagome asked before Sesshomaru could fully shut the door.

“She was Inuyasha’s girlfriend when he left, they were engaged.” And with that said Sesshomaru left leaving the same confusion and now a woman’s jealous anger.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

The only thing that could possibly calm me down was a bowl of weed and a forty. I sat on the couch lighting up my hit in the stem of the bong and in between my coughs I just heard Sesshomaru’s voice telling me that I ranway and blah blah blah. His old song and dance. He is a guy who loves his guilt trips.

I fell back onto the couch and tilted the forty to my mouth letting its dark liquid guide it’s way down my throat in hopes that it kills the brain cell that holds Sesshomaru’s voice. I was jolted when I heard the door opening. Why did they let him up here…when I leave it means I don’t want to talk!

“Inuyasha.” Thank god it’s just Kagome.

“Hey Kagome. Look I’m sorry for what happened down there.”

“Say who’s Kikyo?” Fuck…why can’t the people in my past who I say are dead to me really be dead.

“Sesshomaru talk about her?”

“He said he would be at your show with her. Oh and that she was your fiancé!” ohh…boy. I rubbed my hand down my face. I’m going to have to tell her aren’t I? What the fuck Inuyasha your seeking advise from your self…no I’m not going to talk about shit!

“Look she was a girl in my past nothing more nothing less. Obviously I didn’t marry that bitch, I left her. End of story.” I took another sip of my beer this is a great way to celebrate getting on the bill for tomorrow.

“Inuyasha…why didn’t you tell me about her or Sesshomaru?”

“Because that part of my life is over. The Inuyasha from back then is dead along with everyone else from those days.”

“Why keep your self closed to me?” I can’t handle this…why don’t people leave me the fuck alone. “’m always here I mean we both have been through a lot and….”

“Get off my cloud, you’re not my girlfriend I don’t have to tell you anything!” …oh no.

Kagome looks back at me tears streaking her face her beautiful face contorted into misery. How could I have said that…when all I want is to be with her. God damn I’m an idiot.

Kagome ran covering her face with one palm and trying to keep balance with the other. What have I done…

“Kagome!” I raced after her. I’m not going to go down as being the worlds biggest dick. This is why people shouldn’t care about me I always end up hurting them.


She turned the corner into the venue and there I was confronted by a thousand stares of hatred. I realized that the only real loyalty that mattered was for Kagome at this point, I was written off.

“Who the hell do you think you are!” Sango screamed.

“Look I didn’t mean it…I just.”

“No! Now it is my turn to talk and you will listen!” Sango’s furry was one not to be reckoned with…lucky for me… “After all that Kagome went through and you had the audacity to treat her that way! You…the fucking jackass who fooled us all into thinking that maybe she had finally caught a break? Well fuck you!” Sango spit into my face. She had every right to call me out I hurt Kagome…but spit? That was fucking disgusting.

“I was a fucking ass I know it and I didn‘t mean what I said…now where is Kagome I need to talk to her!”

“I’m not going to let her get further hurt by you! Why don’t you just do us all a favor and go back to your fiancé!”

“I don’t need this!” I ran outside and searched all over for her, but she was gone…I slumped to the ground blaming everything that had just occurred on Sesshomaru and Kikyo. If they hadn’t come here everything would be fine.

“Inuyasha. There you are! I’m sorry about Sango she can get to be headstrong to say the least especially when Kagome is involved.” Miroku said joining me on the ground.

“You know…the only reason I was about to marry Kikyo is because I thought that there was no girl out there who could like a piece of shit like me and put up with me. With Kikyo I wasn’t in love I just had great sex, but Kagome she’s the best thing that I could have ever hoped for and now I’ve fucked it all up.”

“You really care for her don’t you.”

“Yeah…more than anything.”

“Than tell her make her your girlfriend.”

“Where did she go?”

“I don’t know…home maybe?”

“There’s no way she would want to see me tonight.” I got up and an idea started to turn in my head on how to get her back. I went upstairs and got out my acoustic guitar and began the wheels of my plan to win back Kagome.

I was up all night playing and had fallen asleep with the guitar still on my lap. I woke up to Miroku kicking at me while Skunk poured cold water over my face.

“WHAT THE FUCK!” Cold, cold really fucking cold.

“Get up sleeping beauty sound check is at noon.” Skunk said returning to the hall.

“What time is it?” I asked drowsily.

“Seven thirty.” Miroku grinned.

“What the hell let me sleep.” I rolled back over and tried to forget I was wet so I could sleep.

“No can do we have morning rehearsal.”

“Alright whatever give me a few will ya?” Miroku left to join the others and slowly I rose out of bed wiping my eyes vigorously to try and get me more alive. I got dressed threw on my coat and went downstairs. It looked as though the morning didn’t effect anyone except for me. They were tuning and putting merchandise into boxes.

“Well nice to see that the asshole was able to sleep in and has finally decided to get to work.” Kouga snarled.

“Ignore him, Inuyasha.” Hojo said putting the last t-shirt into the box.

“Hey Miroku I have a song that I want us to play at the gig.” I said unfolding a piece of paper with the lyrics and chords that I spent all night writing.

“We already have a set list.” Kouga remarked. Taking a break from his sticks.

“We’ll just throw out Sobriety and add Inuyasha‘s piece.” Skunk said with Miroku nodding in agreement.

“WHAT, but that’s the song I wrote…” Haha Inuyasha 2, Kouga 0...it’s ok Ringo your piece can be valued on the fridge!

Three hours we rehearsed and when we had finished I thought I was dead and the great news was I had to do it all over again in an hour. This was some kind of concert to prepare for. But, if all goes well Kagome will stop hating me and not think I’m just some asshole.

“Alright guys start loading everything into the van.” Miroku said taking a seat on the barstool. Skunk helped me lift the 78’ Orange amp into the van while Hojo and Kouga carried out the drumset. About our third trip in we all noticed that Miroku was still on that god damn barstool leaving us to do the grunt work.

“Hey fucktard want to help us with this thing!” Skunk yelled lifting his Harke Bass amp. Miroku gave in and went over and lifted up the other side. It only took five trips to put everything into the van. All that was left was to pick up Kagome.

“Hey where is Sango we have to get going?” Hojo asked realizing that no one had seen her all day.

“Oh she spent the night at Kagome’s…she said she didn’t want to sleep in the same house with Inuyasha, but more importantly they are doing the chick thing of getting ready for the show together.” Miroku said rubbing the base of his neck and giving a nervous chuckle. Yeah thanks Miroku for taking the sting out of that one…I let out a sigh and locked the door behind me.

We got into the van and began the drive to Kagome’s. I never stopped taking my mind from Kagome as the car rattled along the road. What would happen if my plan fails or worse Kouga somehow gets his grip on her. I know that he has been waiting for this moment where I slip up and he can look like the hero, I see it in his eyes as we draw nearer to her house. Fuck please just let me have one more chance…

When we got to the house and the girls got into the van neither Kagome or Sango would look at me. The girls ,however, were wearing their battle armor with their spiked leather jackets, spiked up hair. Kagome had her hair into a Mohawk while Sango’s was liberty spiked. But boy Kagome looked beautiful she had a sexy leather skirt on and her favorite Exploited shirt on. She told me that shirt always brought her good luck…hopefully it brings me some too. When they got in only two seats remained one by me and the other next to that. I had thought about this earlier.

“Hey Sango do you want to sit in the middle? I get car sick.” We all knew that Kagome was just saying that so she wouldn’t have to sit by me. Never in my life have I felt as low as I do now.

Sitting by Sango was torture she would do everything she could possibly think of to annoy me. She would snap her gum right into my ear. At one point she let out a yawn and then with as much force as possible punched me with her elbow. A bit of luck fell in the form of lucky charms cereal into a paper bag. Turns out Sango and Kagome decided to drink their feelings last night so we had to pull over. Sango couldn’t get the door open fast enough and when she quit her barfing everyone forced her to sit closest to the door. Forcing Kagome to sit by me.

“Don’t even think about talking to me Inuyasha.” Kagome said without so much as a glance to me.

“I’m sorry Kagome. I didn’t want to hurt you. I was just angry about Sesshomaru.”

“I think the lady says to not speak to her.” Kouga smirked putting his arm around her from the back seat.

“Thanks Kouga, but I’m not going to fuck you.” Even if she is pissed at me that just made my day.

It was silent for the rest of the car that is except for the occasional hurl heard from Sango into a paper sack, but eventually even that too settled into silence.

When we reached the concert grounds it was the more amazing than last years event. There were six beer and food booths the stage was an actual stage instead of last years planks of wood put on a foundation of cement blocks. They really went all out. The one thing that had slipped my mind was the issue of setting up camp. And knowing Miroku him and Sango would be calling the mattress in the back of the van. But why think of that now when there was a show to get ready for.

We got out of the van and began to unload the equipment. Kagome and Sango helped carry the instruments onto the stage. At one point Kagome and I ended up carrying an amp together, but she was stubborn and still wouldn’t so much as bare one glance. I just hope that my plan works.

“Hello you must be the Cheeky Bastards. I’m Mike we talked on the phone.” This must be the guy that runs the place.

“Yeah I’m Miroku, this guy to my left is Inuyasha, then there is Skunk, Hojo, and the faggot right here is Kouga.” Miroku smiled after giving out introductions and us giving the usual reaction of saying hi or giving a nod of the head. From what I noticed Mike was in his thirties hell maybe forties and was a big guy. He had a shaved head and had huge spikes on his jacket. This guy looked like he could knock someone by simply putting out his finger against their forehead.

“And these ladies are your singers?”

“No more like groupies.” Miroku jested…of course his jest was embraced by a slap to the face by Sango.

“Well it‘s nice to meet you girls too. Now it’s time for you guys to get on stage a wave of people are going to be heading here soon. Why don’t you girls go pick out a spot to set up camp.”

The sound check went amazingly the guy running the mixer knew exactly what the fuck he was doing and we held back on playing my song until the actual show. I was in awe as soon as people did start showing up. It was way more massive of a crowd than last years Punxfest too.

I came off of the stage and went over to one of the beer stands. Another amazing thing I love about this festival is they give free beer to the bands. It felt good to be in a band again. But I kept wondering when Kikyo and Sesshomaru were going to come and ruin the day after all this festival is the reason I even fucking ran into them.

“Inuyasha!” Well speak of the devil…literally.

“Kikyo…”

“ How are you enjoying the show so far?”

“Ugh…Kikyo we just got done with sound checks the show won’t even start till two.”

“So doesn’t mean you can’t have a good time without a live band. It’s always a show if you have music playing in your mind.” The first of the psycho-bitch girlfriends and probably my craziest.

“Kikyo are you tweaked out on heroine again?”

“Inuyasha! No! I just love punk music is all.” Yeah try and get her to list of one Major Accident song and she’ll give you a song by Lady Gag Gag or whatever the new trend singer is instead.

“Alright Kikyo.”
“Hey, Inuyasha?” Now what?
“Yes Kikyo?” This woman is unbearable.
“Why did you leave me?” Really? Fuck in a..
“I left because you were a psychotic bitch.”

“Inuyasha…” Kikyo began to cry and something inside of me still felt bad.
She was my first serious relationship and I never can fully hate her…god damn it..

“Kikyo, I’m sorry don’t cry.” I sat down my bear and pulled her into a hug. I don’t need this on my conscience right now.

Holy shit! What am I doing I would never do this…not before. I’m fucking comforting one of the biggest bitches I’ve ever met who I would have gladly seen die. No way in hell am I doing this. I haven’t changed since I left that bus station to come to this place.

“Inuyasha I love you still…and I always will.” Fuck, get out! Abort dumb-ass!

Without much reaction time Kikyo raised her head and pulled me into a kiss. I pushed that bitch the fuck off of me as fast as I could. But once I looked over I saw the familiar back of Kagome fleeing from the scene.

“Fucking cunt!” Not again Kagome. I don’t know if she will even listen to me now.

I ran all the way into the woods that was behind the tents and stage. I found her nestled against a tree only about a yard from the camp.

“Hey Kagome…” I approached her slowly her body laid still except for the heaving of her stomach from the sobs.

“I didn’t want to kiss Kikyo I made her cry and…”

“And what? You felt sorry for her and kissed her? You have a knack for making girls cry.” Well she got me on that one.

“I didn’t kiss her she kissed me I pushed her off, but by then you had ran.”

“Kikyo isn’t that your fiancé?” I heard her sobs grow harder and angrier.

“Ex-fiancé for one thing and psycho bitch for another.” Come on Kagome just believe me…

“Just go away Inuyasha! I’m fucking tired of this shit! Get off my cloud!”
“Kagome come on! Just listen to me for a second!”

“Inuyasha fuck off!” Kagome stood up and finally faced me. Her eyes were red and puffy.

“Kag, you’re being unreasonable!” Great idea Inuyasha piss her off even more that will make everything better.

Kagome looked up at me and I saw her eyes fill with rage and then suddenly I felt a sharp pain to my cheek and nose. I put my hand up to my nose and saw that I was bleeding. When I looked back she had left.

So there I was stumbling out of the wood heading back to my camp with a bloody nose. All the while thinking that there was no where to go from here. I am royally fucked. If she isn’t going to believe me now then how will she ever? And why is she pissed at me how did my life get to this point? One it was a fucking quarter and then Sesshomaru and Kikyo came to ruin the day! Fucking great…I will never know sanity again. Now how did I cope with this twist of fates? That is a simple one I hit up more beer tents then take my anger out on the mosh pits.

There was just one misfortunate part about that plan of unleashing my anger into the mosh pit and that was Kagome apparently had the same idea. Then I saw Sesshomaru coming towards me and that is when I ran for shelter in the van. It’s like I’m just a condemned character in some twisted Author’s story cursing me with all these bad happen stances.

Either it’s just the alcohol talking and the line of E I took with these real nice guys by the beer tent or I’m really going fucking insane. What to do…what to do…

I went into the van and fell back on the mattress. This all just seems like some nightmare. I had it so good and now it went to shit. I am at the best concert of my fucking life and I’m pissed. Inuyasha what’s happened to you? You are letting one girl whip you around? Fuck her! Fuck…I need a drink.

I rolled over and found Skunks stash of alcohol. I found a pint of vodka and drank as much of it as I could then threw the rest to the ground. I laid on that mattress stuck in self pity. I felt my stomach lurch. I threw open the van and emptied all my stomach contents. As I rose my head up I saw Kagome. I was about to shake the image of her off until I saw that she was making out with some fucking asshole.

What can I say I lost it. I charged that bastard knocking him straight to the ground. Punching him over and over again. Kagome all the while screaming for me to get off of him. Miroku, Skunk got me off of him and sat me down back in the van.

“This isn’t how you get Kagome back!” Skunk yelled.

“She is a fucking hypocrite and refuses to listen…what’s the point.”

“Skunk stay here. I’m ending this shit now.” Miroku said with the most somber face I’ve ever seen him make.

“Hey Inuyasha how much have you been drinking?” Skunk asked looking at his empty pint of vodka.

“Not enough.”
“How much is fucking enough?”
“Until my tears start to taste like the cheap beer.” I felt another lurch, but this time it ended up on the vans carpet. This is the worst night of my life…

“Hi Inuyasha ready to talk? Your friend Miroku said you’d be here.” And it just keeps getting worse.

A/N: Woo another chapter down. This chapter if you haven’t guessed is going to be in parts. I hope you are liking it so far. I’m thinking about making the next part on the perspective of Kagome…we’ll see. Anywhoodles reviews are always good I like knowing your guys’ input helps me see where improvements could be made. Till next time ;)
