Evil dissy thingy: Me no own Inuyasha! So stop asking! Lol
Recap: “I Said... Will you go out with me?”
She just looked at him in utter shock. `What should I say?!'
`You're in love with him, say yes you idiot!'
`But I can't!'
`Why not?'
Kagome smiled sadly at him. “I'm sorry Inuyasha, but I can't.”
He looked at her in confusion. “Why not?”

“DADDY, DON'T DO THIS!!! SHE'S YOUR DAUGHTER!! YOU CAN'T DO THIS!!!!” Sango screamed from inside the closet...
“She's not my daughter, she's a lying whore.” Naraku said as he ripped of Kagome's clothes. Then he leaned down and whispered something in her ear making her go still as her heart started to shatter.
“You were never meant to find love Kagome, you aren't worthy of it, you're disgusting….You're lucky that I even want to screw you...”
Then he positioned himself at her entrance, and looked into her eyes and smiled cruelly at how broken she looked. Then he slowly brought himself into her until he met her hymn and just as he was about to thrust…
DING DONG!!!

“Kagome?” Inuyasha asked again when she got this distant look on her face.
Kagome snapped out of her mussing and looked at him with a small smile. “Because I am unworthy.”
Then she turned and ran out of the mall, tears streaming down her face and all. He and the others could only stare after her in shock.
My Angel, My Kagome

Kagome ran and ran and ran. It seemed like she was doing a lot of that lately. Running from her father, running from her mind, running from her friends and sisters…from Inuyasha.
Was she a coward because of it? Yes, she ran out of fear but she also ran out of protection. She ran from Naraku to protect her sisters and her self, she ran from Inuyasha to protect his and her heart…. But wasn't that still considered being a coward. Running and never giving it a fighting chance. Yes, but she was a weakling, so what else could she do?
She knew she wasn't meant to find love; her purposed was to protect; to protect her sisters and her friends at all costs. She didn't give love a chance because love wouldn't give her a chance. She was tainted, disgusting, and pathetic and she knew it. She wasn't worth being loved; she wasn't worth anything. She was lucky to even be alive.
Kagome stopped and whipped the tears from her eyes with a growl.
`Crying again? You are so pathetic!!' she hissed angrily at her self.
Then she looked up to see were she was, only to find Goshinboku sitting right in front of her. She smiled at the tree weakly.
“Why am I always drawn to you?” She whispered to it after she walked threw the barrier and placed her right hand on its trunk.
Then she felt it, happiness. Her empathic ability picked up happiness. Was the tree responding to her?!
“Am I feeling your happiness?” She asked it and felt the happiness skyrocket. Was it happy that she was talking to it?
She smiled softly. “I'm happy to see you too.” She replied and could almost see the tree smile back at her.
“Who are you talking to?”
Kagome gasped and spun around to come face to face with Inuyasha.
“N-no one...” She stuttered, still mildly shocked that she hadn't felt him come.
He grinned. “Were you just talking to a tree?!”
She frowned. “No, I was talking to Goshinboku. He's not just some tree, he's special!” She could feel pride radiating off of the tree and had to suppress a smile.
“He? How do you know it's a he?”
“Because I just do, ok!” She yelled.
“Woe! You don't have to get all angry, Seesh!” He defended
Kagome frowned as her eye fell to the ground. “I'm sorry Inuyasha, your right. Please forgive me.”
“Don't worry about it. “ He shrugged, and then he added. “Kagome, what happened back there at the mall? Why would you say that?”
She looked at him calmly. “What? That I was unworthy?”
“Yeah, why would you say such a thing?” He asked softly.
She smiled sadly. “Because, it's the truth.”
“Kagome, just because I have money doesn't mean you are any less than I am.” He sighed in frustration.
“I know that.” She said calmly.
Inuyasha's eye ticked slightly. “Then why won't you go out with me?” He asked with clenched teeth, she was being so difficult.
“Because.”
“BECAUSE WHY!!?” He finally snapped, making her stare at him in shock.
“Because I can't, Inuyasha.” She said.
“That's not a good enough answer!!” He yelled while grabbing her by her shoulders.
“Well, It's gonna' have to be!!” She yelled into his face.
“Dammit Kagome!! What's wrong with you!?” He said as he shook her a bit.
She pushed him off her. “EVERY THINGS WRONG!” She screamed as tears started down her face. Inuyasha just stared at her in shock.
She stood with her head down, her bangs covering her eyes as her fists clenched.
“Everything's wrong…nothing is right anymore, my sisters aren't safe, you guys aren't safe, and my father wants to kill us…. I just… don't know what to do anymore.” She said, her voice sounded so hopeless.
“I'm only one person, just one! I can't fight him, his gang and protect you guys all at the same time, I just can't… and I'm afraid, I'm so afraid that I'm going to lose you guys… and if I ever did...” She started to sob openly. “I wouldn't be able to bare it. That and know it was my fault that you all died.”
Inuyasha stared at her shaking form as tears flowed from her dazzling blue eyes. She just looked so lonely; so broken and lost, and for the first time, he realized how fragile and scared she looked, making an overwhelming need to protect her fill him.
Kagome closed her eyes in a desperate attempt to keep the tears from falling. “I'm sorry…just…just forget I ever said anything.” She said as she turned to run again but Inuyasha caught her hand and spun her into his arms as he held her against him, causing her eyes going wide in shock.
“Inuyasha?”
“You're not alone, Kagome, can't you see? You're not just one person; you have Sango and Rin; you have Miroku and Sesshomaru. You have me! We aren't going to just let you fight this alone. We care about you just as much as you care for us, if not more. We're going to stand beside you and fight, nothing and I mean NOTHING will stop us from taking Naraku down, do you understand me?” He asked as he held her tightly.
Kagome smiled against his chest and sighed. “Yes Inuyasha, thank you.”
“You're welcome.” He said with a grin, and then added. “KNOW can you go out with me?”
“Inuyasha…” She whined.
“What?! I thought we fixed the problem?”
“Yes, but only part of it.”
He looked at her questioningly. “What's the other part?”
Kagome sighed. “Inuyasha, you don't want to be with me. Believe me, if you knew what I knew, you wouldn't want to even know me.”
Inuyasha tilted his head in confusion. “What? Does this have anything to do with what happened with Naraku?”
Kagome suddenly found the ground very interesting. “No…kinda…ok, yes.” She admitted softly.
Inuyasha looked at her worriedly. “Kagome, did he… touch you?”
Kagome started to shake visibly. “…define touch…”
Inuyasha gently placed his hand under her chin and lifted her head to look into his concern filled amber eyes.
“Did he touch you…sexually?”
He heard her whimper and saw her cringe slightly, but other than that she did nothing. Then he remembered what Sango said to him.
`Inuyasha, she probably thinks it was her fault in the first place, she probably feels guilty that she had let him touch her, and she probably thinks that she had done something wrong to deserve it, but you and I both know that she has done nothing to deserve being touched that way, but she doesn't!' Sango's voice echoed in his mind.
“Kagome, listen to me. What ever he did to you wasn't your fault and you did nothing to deserve it. He stepped over the line, not you.” He told her.
Her piercing blue eyes met his. “How can you say that when you don't know?! How can you tell me that when you don't know what I've done!?”
“What? That Naraku claims it was your fault for Akira's death? That he killed her because of you?!”
She gasped with eyes wide as she stepped away from him. “H-how? How do you know that!! Who told you about that?!”
“It doesn't mater who told me! All that matters is that he lied!! I had my father check up on a few things while you were in the hospital. Kagome, Akira filed for a divorce the day she was killed!”
“What are you talking about? No she didn't.”
“Yes she did! Kagome, do you even remember telling anyone about Naraku and his gang?”
“No…but”
“Well neither does the police reports. Kagome, if you had told some one then they would have filed a report and there was no such thing! There was no evidence that even said that Naraku was ever thought of as a child abuser! He only used you as an excuse to kill her! He used you as an excuse because he needed a reason to kill her so she couldn't leave him or tell anyone what he did, he used you as an excuse so he could blame it on some one else, so he didn't have to feel guilty! You did nothing wrong, he tricked you!”
Kagome stared at him sadly. “You're wrong, it was my fault. He had proof that it was my fault.”
“What? THIS?!” He snapped as he pulled her dairy out into her face. She just stood there in complete shock as she stared at it in horror.
“W-where…d-did…you…” she stuttered.
“He found this dairy, didn't he Kagome? Do you remember what happened that day, Kagome? Do you remember the way you're mother acted?” He questioned.

A little 6-year-old Kagome sat quietly as she listened to her teacher's lecture when a voice came over the speaker system.
“Mrs. Takman, Would you please send Kagome to the office. Her mother's here to pick her up.” The voice said. Kagome looked at the speaker in confusion, her mother never said anything about getting her early today.
“Sure.” Mrs. Takman said, and then she looked at Kagome and smiled. “You can go now, sweet heart.”
Kagome packed all her stuff and walked out of the classroom and into the front office where her mother waited with a 5 year old Sango next to her. She must have picked her up from pre-school.
Before Kagome could say a word, Akira whisked her and Sango outside and into the car, before she sped off towards the house. She was all sweaty and looked really nervous.
“Mommy, what's going on?” Kagome asked.
“Nothing sweetie, don't worry about it.” She replied in a calm voice but on the out side she looked like a nervous wreck.
Kagome just stared at her worriedly as they pulled into their front drive way.
“Kagome, now I want you and Sango to stay in the car, ok? I'll be right back, so don't worry.” She said soothingly to her daughter, and then she hoped out of the car and ran into the house.
Kagome stared after her as she felt her heart beat rapidly, something was going on and she didn't know what. All she knew was that it wasn't going to end well at all.
“EEEEEEEEE!!” She heard her mother scream from inside the house, followed closely by a crash.
“MOMMY!” Kagome cried as she rushed out of the car, leaving her sister alone in her car seat.
Kagome rushed threw the front door and went still in shock at what she saw.
Naraku was standing over her mother angrily as he kicked her every once in a while, but he wasn't even supposed to be home yet! “YOU BITCH!! YOU BETRAYED ME!!” He yelled at Akira as he continued to beat her.
Akira coughed out blood then glared up at him. “I didn't betray you! You betrayed me! You promised me you would never hurt me!!” she cried.
“I wouldn't have to hurt you so much if you didn't protect those damn brats of yours so much!” He growled.
“And I wouldn't have to protect them if you acted like a good father and didn't hit them so much!” She retorted making a dark gleam come to Naraku's eyes and before Kagome could even blink, he thrust his clawed hand threw Akira's stomach; her mouth open in a silent scream.
“MOMMY!!!!!!” Kagome screamed as she ran towards Akira with tears streaming down her face but Naraku grabbed her by the collar of her shirt and threw backwards into a wall.
Then he stalked up to her, with an angry glare. “You stupid little whore! Do you know why she's like that? Huh?! It's because you couldn't keep your big mouth shut!” He growled.
She looked up at him with wide tear filled eyes. “B-but, I don't understand!”
“You told on me Kagome! Don't you remember? You told on me and now because of you, Akira must die!”
“NO!! I didn't… I never!” Kagome stuttered franticly.
Then he threw something hard at her, hitting her in the head then falling to the floor in front of her. Kagome looked down at the object in pure horror stricken shock.
“Yes, Kagome. I found your dairy; did you really think you could hide such a thing from me?”
“N-no…but I didn't mean to…” She started but he grabbed her by her throat and slammed her against the wall.
“ARE YOU STUPID OR SOMETHING!?IF SOMEOND HAD FOUND THIS MY LIFE WOULD HAVE BEEN OVER!!!” He screamed in her face.
Kagome started to sob uncontrollably.
“Yeah! That's right, Cry you weak stupid little whore!!” He taunted.
“N-naraku…leave her…alone!” They both heard Akira choke out.
Naraku turned his head to look at her in shock as she stood up slowly, painfully.
“Don't tell her lies, she did nothing wrong! That's why I was leaving you. I don't know what I did to deserve a monster like you, but I do know that my children did nothing to deserve what you've put them threw!” She spat.
Naraku growled, threw Kagome to the side and stocked up to Akira.
“I'm a monster, am I?” Then he smirked. “Let me show you how much of a monster I really am.” He said as he raised his claws above his head, and then in a flash brought it down across her chest.
Akira fell to her knees as she grasped her chest and panted from the pain. Naraku then did a roundhouse kick into her face making her crash to the ground with a sickening crack.
“MOMMY!!!” Kagome screamed as she ran up to her and wrapped her arms around her.
Kagome began shutter as she looked down into her mother pain filled eyes, and knew she was dieing. Anger consumed her as she turned on her father, she could feel some weird power rushing threw her veins and instinctively raised her hands in front of her. A glowing blue orb stared to accumulate in front of her hands as she watched her father's eyes go wide. Then with out warning, She threw the ball at him, aiming for his chest hoping it would kill him, but he quickly turned around and the ball of energy hit his back burning away his shirt and skin as he screamed in agony. Then, suddenly, he passed out and fell to the floor.
Kagome looked at her hands and then him with wide eyes. His back was all black and charred, and it seemed to have some weird shape…it looked like…like a spider!
Kagome fell to her knees with her hands covering her mouth in horror. On one side of her was her mother, slowly bleeding to death, and on the other side was her father, burnt and unconscious. Both of which were her fault, she had caused them both to be so badly injured.
“I'm sorry mommy, I'm so sorry!” she sobbed as collapsed against Akira's chest, wrapping her arms around her broken and battered body. Blood was everywhere, on Kagome, on Akira.
Akira placed her hand on Kagome's cheek wiped away a tear and smiled warmly at her. “My lovely Kagome, please don't cry” She said softly.
Kagome only cried harder. “But you're dying mommy, how am I supposed to live with out you?!”
“Do not worry, you will find happiness one day, but until then. Protect your sister's for me.” She said with a warm smiled.
Kagome looked at her curiously. “But mommy, I only have one sister.” She exclaimed, talking about her little 5-year-old sister, Sango.
“Now, but one day, another will enter your life. You must protect her too, or you will never find happiness.” She warned her daughter before she hissed in pain and went limp.
“Mommy? MOMMY?! NOOOO!!! MOMMY, PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME!!!” Kagome cried as she buried her face in her mother's hair as heart wrenching sobs consumed her.
Suddenly, Kagome felt dizzy and light headed and before she knew it, she fell to the floor, welcoming the darkness that consumed her.

“Do you remember Kagome?” Inuyasha repeated, making Kagome look at him with sorrow filled eyes.
“Of course I remember, it was the worst day of my life….”
“And do you remember what they said had killed her?” He asked her, remembering the police report he had read about her mother's death.
“They said…. They said that it had been a Miko, a dark Miko had attacked my family and ended in killing my mother.”
“I know why they thought it was a dark Miko, Kagome. I know that you attacked Naraku, I know that you used you're powers and tried to save her.” He stated softly.
Kagome laughed bitterly making him look at her questioningly. “I didn't try to save her, I was to weak to do that. I attacked Naraku because I was angry, I attacked him out of hatred.” She said with a smirk. “ Don't you see Inuyasha? I'm no better than him, I'm a monster.”
Inuyasha looked at her sadly. Her father had really screwed up. “Really? You're a monster? I find that hard to believe when you do nothing but help people. You've protected your sisters for most of your life. You've risked yourself countless times just so they could live another day. You protected a helpless child and took him in as your own.” He shook his head and smiled. “No Kagome, you're not a monster. You're an angel!”
Kagome stared at him, her heart racing a mile a minute. She didn't know what to say.
Inuyasha smiled at her and took her lack of reaction to pull her flush against his body. Then he whispered in her ear. “Kagome, you're my Angel.”
And with that he leaned down and softly brought his lips to hers. Kagome went tense against him, her eyes open wide but then, slowly, she melted against him; closing her eyes with a content smile.
It was a gentle kiss, loving and warm. It was as if he were trying to convince her, with just one kiss, that she wasn't what she thought she was. That she WAS worth being loved, that she WAS perfect, maybe not to everyone else, but to him and that in itself was enough to make her heart soar.
Inuyasha pulled away a little and leaned his forehead against hers and smiled a big fanged grin. “Do you have any Idea how long I've wanted to do that?” He breathed making her giggle.
“Probably as long as I've wanted you too.” She replied, his grin widening.
“Really? And all this time I thought the others were crazy for telling me that you liked me.” He laughed.
“Heh, they are crazy! But that's why we love them” She said with a grin to match.
He pulled completely away, Kagome frowning at the loss of his touch, but he laced his fingers with her, making her smile warmly.
“Come on, lets go back home.” He said as he began to lead her to the mansion.
Home….
Kagome's smile widened. `That's right, I have a home now, a true home… a home…with Inuyasha.'
