Chapter 4

It was a long and painful walk down the stairs it seemed too little Inuyasha. His foot hurt with every step he took. His mother walked at a brisk pace fully intent on not having her guest wait any longer. She hoped that her special guest would be pleased with him.

She looked down at her child. His skin was pink from the hot water from the bath was now returning to a pale color. His snowy white hair was slightly damp and his ears were slightly floppy. His feet were bare and a nasty looking bruise marred his foot. She hoped that wouldn't take away from the value that her son would bring her.

His eyes were wide with innocence and pain. They were a shimmering golden color. Her client might like the fact that her son dose not scar. She hoped to do a lot of business with him. She smiled softly. Her half breed son was beautiful this fact alone disgusted her.

How dare this child even attempt to even look better than her? The brat had no right to look cute. He should be horribly disfigured and hideous. How dare this child think he could even love her? How dare he even think he was even worth to be near her?

They came into a room where a man in an expensive business suit sat near the amour. He had long wavy black hair in a pony tail. Little Inuyasha looked up at him into his blood red eyes. He shivered. This man was a demon and he did not like the way this man was staring at him. The man licked his lips slightly.

“Here he is, Lord Naraku.” Izoyia bowed her head to the man. “I'll give you a moment alone with him.” She let go of his hand and gracefully walked out of the door shutting it behind her. The man known now as Naraku now had his full attention on the child.

“Come here half breed.” He was frightening and commanding. Inuyasha feared if he didn't do as he was told that the man would seriously hurt him. One step at a time did he slowly make his way toward the man. What did this man want with him? Why would his mommy leave him alone with this scary man?

“Good boy I won't hurt you.” The man smiled. This sent a shiver down his spine. He stopped two feet from the man. The man reached out his hand and touched little Inuyasha's head and pulled him closer. Then he picked him up off the floor and set him on his lap. Inuyasha never once took his eyes off this man.

“I see that you're worth my money. We shall be spending a lot of time together you and I. Now listen to me because I will only tell you this once. You will live with me until you are old enough to start school then you will spend school days living here with your mother. Your days off and vacations will be spent with me unless further notified. You will do everything you are told without a word. When you become old enough you will begin to work to pay off your mother's debt. Do you understand?”

“Y-yes, s-sir.” Inuyasha stammered. This man's eyes spoke of pain if he did not comply. Naraku smirked. He loved the look of fear in the boy's eyes. This boy would grow up to be a handsome man. The things he could do to the boy once he turns the boy into one of his puppets.

“Go gather what you can carry. That will be the only things you can take with you. Lady Izoyia, come in here.” Naraku stood up and set little Inuyasha on his feet. Izoyia opened the door.

“Yes, Lord Naraku.” She smiled sweetly. Naraku gave Inuyasha a little push toward the door. He ran out past his mother as fast as he could. They watched his run out a smile on Naraku's lips while a frown marked his mother's face.

“Lady Izoyia, as the terms of our agreement here is your first payment.” He pulled out his wallet and scribbled down a high amount on the paper. He ripped it out and held out to her. She took it with a smile.

“I thank you for the business. I look forward to working with you.”

Elsewhere Inuyasha grabbed his torn up clothes. He ran down stairs and saw that the door to the dark room was open and the ladder was down. He cautiously walked over to it and climbed down the ladder. It was dark and it smelled bad.

“Fatty! Fatty!” He whispered as loud as he could. He saw the obese rat waddle up to him. He picked her up and wrapped her in his old clothes. “I'm going to take you with me so we can be together since I'm leaving.” The rat rubbed her head against his cheek before she buried herself in the cloth. Inuyasha climbed up the ladder carefully as he could.

Once up he went into the room where his mother and the man were making small talk. Naraku nodded his head in approval before placing his hand on top of his head. His mother led the way to the front door. They all stepped outside when she opened it.

“That is what you're taking boy. You won't need those ratty old clothes.” Naraku raised an eyebrow to what the boy was carrying.

“You said I could take anything I could carry and I wanted to take this. May I go grab something else that is out here in the yard?” Inuyasha said in a soft voice.

“Be quick I have a lot of things to do.” With permission from the man Inuyasha ran to where is ball was. He placed it on top of the clothes that enclosed Fatty. He walked up to the man and the man led the way to his car. He was placed on a seat and buckled in.

“Mommy!” Inuyasha cried out. The car door was closed and the car took off. The man was taking him away from his mother and his mother just smiled and waved. He didn't want to go with this man! Where were they going? His heart pounded against his chest. This man was evil. How could she let this monster take him away from her? “Mommy!”

“Be silent boy or I will really give you something to cry about.” Naraku turned from somewhat sweet to angry. Inuyasha fell silent as tears made their way down his cheeks.

It was a well know fact that Mrs. Sanchez was fond of demons; after all she was raised by them. She hated the segregation between the two species. Inuyasha opened the classroom door and received one of the rare smiles she gives. He couldn't help but smile back at her. Slowly he entered the room, ready to take his seat at the back of the class. To his surprise there in the middle sat the girl he stole the sandwich from.

He watched as she gave him a small smile. He had met her somewhere before. Where did he meet her? The noises that the other students were making faded into the background. His focus was completely on her. She was getting paper out of her notebook. She reached down into her backpack to get out a pen.

“Inuyasha!” Ms. Sanchez snapped him back into reality. “You are not a piece of furniture. Go take your seat next to the window.” The class snickered as a slight blush kissed his cheeks. He made his way to his seat with his eyes gazing to the floor.

Kagome upon hearing what the teacher just said looked up to see Inuyasha blush and make his way to his seat. Ms. Sanchez turned around and began to give the class notes. She could hear the noise that the chair made when Inuyasha sat in it. She sighed. `Better get started with the notes.' She thought.

The class time was mostly made up of taking notes. She wrote down some really cool stuff about history. Ms. Sanchez was a really good teacher. At her old school history wasn't this interesting. From the way they kids talked before the tardy bell rang they said Ms. Sanchez was the type of teacher that loved to give outrageous homework assignments.

It was fifteen minutes before the bell when Ms. Sanchez gave them free time. To her surprise Ms. Sanchez didn't give any homework. This had been a really interesting day so far. She put her notes and her pens away. She had a feeling that she had met Inuyasha before but she couldn't really place her finger on it.

Curious to see what Inuyasha was doing she looked over her shoulder to see him hunched over his desk fast asleep. He must work really hard at his job if he was so tired. She couldn't even begin to fathom what it would be like to be mute and go to an all human school.

It seems from what Sango had told her that if anyone wanted to pick on him he couldn't even defend himself. She was kind of glad that Sango said she would beat up anyone who even dared bully him. She wanted to learn more about him. He had such mysterious eyes.

She had one more class period to go before the day ended. Sango offered to have Miroku buy them ice cream after school. Miroku of course said only if he got to pick out the ice cream parlor and of course they agreed. Her mother insisted that she put her into this private school.

Not only was it closer to home but it had the highest rated scores in the country. Students from all around the country came to this school. They had a dorm room building on the back of the campus. Her mom said this would be the perfect opportunity to meet new people from all around and get the knowledge she would need to get into the best colleges.

She didn't expect classes to be easy when she first came here, but if the classes were easy that would mean that the tests were killers. She had better take as many notes as she could and study, study, study! Her teachers so far were amazing. They were strict but they seem really into what they are teaching. They students seem to feed off of their vibes and enjoy it too.

The bell rang and she left the class with one final look at Inuyasha. She saw him sit up groggily before she asked someone to help her to her next class. Inuyasha warily watched her leave before he left the classroom. He was the last one to leave the room.

Ms. Sanchez said a gentle good by as he left. He had one last class period to go before he would have to go see him. He sighed. He didn't want the school day to end. He didn't want to see his face or look into his eyes anymore. He didn't want him to touch him. He didn't want to. He just didn't want to, but there was nothing he could do about it.
