Scars of Agony

 

II. Scar of Pain

 

Why is it that my life is full of pain?

 

While yours seem so blissful?

 

Why can't I just leave you?

 

Because... I love you

 

It's too hard to bear, but my pain must end

 

I'm sorry if I'm selfish... but it's true...I know... I love you...

 

But don't you want my pain to end?

 

Kagome shivered as her frail body was thrown into the wall, Inuyasha had left only moments ago, though both did not want him to leave her side. The rest of her family rested safely, while she suffered from the abuse... she suffered everything for them. Her father's hate, furry, everything that they did not know of.As her body was tossed once more a horrible crack followed by a small whimper that she allowed to escape her lips. She closed her eyes as her father drew nearer, she wished he'd just go away right now. He was breathing into her ear as he grabbed her, another throw would follow.

 

"Go take a bath..." was the harsh whisper, it sent shivers up her spine, the hair on the back of her neck stood up, "Don't lock the door... if you do... I'll kill you and that damn cat of yours..." he said before dropping her onto the ground and allowing her to climb up the stairs.

 

Kagome made her way up the stairs, clutching the razor to her pounding chest, she slipped into the bathroom, leaving the door unlocked as she started up the bath. She slipped off her sweater, the smell of the cotton was no longer there, but the scent of iron was strong, all her blood, no matter how many times she washed it, the smell was never removed.

 

The feeling of the cotton on her abused skin itched, though provided comfort to her. Removing her comfort, protection, whatever she wanted it to be. She was beginning to fear of what her father would do now.As she slipped into the tub, the razor fixed in her hand to cut the flesh instantly, she brought the blade to her arm, allowing one of hope and one of hate to be made.

 

The blood leaked into the bath, tainting the pure water with crimson, the smell of iron filled her nose instantly, ridding her fear until the door creaked open.Inuyasha stared at the towels that he had washed, they were tainted still, they still smelled like the iron of her blood. He sighed, he wanted to make her pain to end so much... There was nothing he could do so far... he needed proof... somehow... He knew how to get it, he just needed Kagome' s cooperation, which, she'd never give.

 

She loved her father after all.The familiar banging of her small fist rang once more, he sighed, it happened again didn't it? He answered the door to see Kagome soaking wet, her hair pressed down with the weight of the water, her face still covered in drops of the water. Only, it was red...

 

"Kagome... did, you bathe in your blood or something?" he asked pulling her close to him, she was trembling once more causing another growl to form in his throat, but never leave.

 

"No... I cut as I took a bath..." she said softly allowing Inuyasha to carry her into the house.Inuyasha walked into the living room with a sigh, holding Kagome close as he sat on the couch, he wanted her to be happy, of course that was known.

 

He sighed once more, there was no possible way to make her happy. All he could do was support her, but that was all.He held her close, allowing her to sleep, the next time, he'd have his proof, and he'd have to do it without her knowing. How could he get her to go to the hospital? After all, it was her body... Perhaps he could have her get it examined, and tell the doctor what it was really for. After all, they would most likely to help, since he could just ask his father.

 

He smiled at the sleeping figure in his arms, "You'll be free my angel, to spread your wings." he whispered in her ear as she slept.

 

Being a Sunday, they had no school. Inuyasha allowed his angel to remain asleep in his arms, though his stomach was growling annoyingly to him. Begging him to eat something, before he starved to death. Of course, thinking that, laid Kagome down on the couch. Slipping out of the room, trying to remain silent so not to wake her. He sighed in relief as he reached the kitchen safely. He pulled out some fruit only to hear the phone.

 

"DAMN IT!" he yelled placing down the fruit remembering that the phone was by Kagome.

 

"Yes?" Kagome drowsy voice was heard answering the phone..

 

Before Kagome could hear who had called Inuyasha snatched the phone away in fear that it was her father. After all, having him call for her so soon might only cause shock to her this early in the morning.

 

"Inuyasha!" Kagome's voice stressed a scream as he began talking on the phoneAs soon as Inuyasha hung up, he was assaulted by a pillow in the face, followed by the rest of them on the couch. He growled at Kagome and pinned her to the couch, placing a kiss on her neck.

 

"Your lucky I love you so much." he whispered in her ear earning a small giggle.

 

"I'm lucky your with me" she said before placing her lips on Inuyasha's.

 

"Tomorrow Kagome, I want you to get checked, just incase of pregnancy." he said poking her stomach gently, hoping she'd fall for his ploy.

 

"All right..." She said sticking out her tongue with a playfulness, showing that she had forgotten the events that had happened at her house, or she was acting like she didn't remember.

 

Inuyasha smiled and walked back to the kitchen, grabbing some food for Kagome and himself, he was going to save her... He was going to make her live a pain free life.Kill yourself... take Inuyasha's worrying with you... Allow him to be happy... Once again the events of the night repeated themselves Kagome made her way to Inuyasha's house instantly, seeing as he had set up an appointment around the time she normally came by. Maybe he was up to something, but she was too focused on arriving at Inuyasha's house on time. She groaned suddenly in front of the door, she hadn't showered or bathed before leaving and they had to go right then.

 

Kagome's small fist began banging on the door, signaling to Inuyasha that she was here and ready to go. Inuyasha opened the door and took Kagome's hand, hiding his inner smirk. Kagome would finally be saved.Inuyasha led Kagome into the room his brother waited in. Sesshomaru had became a doctor, not that Inuyasha cared. They had been waiting for about thirty minutes before they were able to come get Kagome checked.

 

Inuyasha glared at his brother as he laid Kagome down on to the bed, he was saying that he better not pull anything, or he'd personally kill him. Inuyasha sat down waiting for Sesshomaru to finish, examining Kagome and collecting evidence.

 

"Well, Kagome. your perfectly fine, other than the redness." Sesshomaru said, not asking why knowing since Inuyasha had told him, "Here you go Inuyasha, Father said to give it to you." he said, signaling that it was the evidence.

 

Kagome smiled and hugged Inuyasha before walking out of the office with him, not hearing the words that Sesshomaru had said last. She held Inuyasha's hand and made they made their way to the car. To get breakfast and head home for a quick nap before school.

 

Sango slurped on the straw of her drink as Kagura walked up to her, she rolled her eyes the slightest bit as she looked at Miroku. Miroku simply nodded, he hurried off, not wanting to be shoved again, smacked, or whatever else they had in mind. Maybe stuffing him into a trash. Being a ladies man as he was, he would never do anything back but laugh.

 

"So Sango, we hear you Kagome's friend... even after..." Kagura said eyeing Sango with a look of question, she wondered what was going on in Sango's head.

 

"So, what if I am? She's cool." she said, defending her new friend, though they were still new friends, she could tell who was cool and who was not.

 

"Ok, good. Now you can give us the dirt on her." Kanna finally chimed in.

 

"No, I can't do that. No matter what you do. And if you threaten me, you'll regret it because I can ruin your whole life." Sango hiss and walked away from the gossiping two. She could tell that they just wanted to ruin Kagome's life.

 

After school, Inuyasha had called for the best lawyer that his family could afford, his father would most likely not care if it had to do with somebody's life if it was expinsive. After all, Inuyasha was planning to be with Kagome for the rest of his life, and hopefully hers. As in a long life, he didn't want her to go now.

 

After about an hour on the phone, the lawyer was going to call Kagome's father, his plan wasn't going to work without Kagome knowing. She needed to be in court as well, he sighed, hoping that Kagome would thank him than do something that she'd regret. Well, what he would would regret making her do.It was likely now that her father was speaking with Kagome now, then she'd come to him, yelling. He sighed, they'd have to have a meeting with eachother's lawyers, and hopefully, Kagome's father would keep her oblivious to the fact that she was going to court until that day. That was all that he could hope for now...

 

Picking up the phone once more, he began to dial Kagome's home phone...

 

The day of court had finally arrived, Kagome, who was oblivious about the fact. She was sleeping when her father bursted into the room. Busting the door more than it was already, she opened one of her sleepy eyes and eyed him carefully.

 

"Yes?" she mumbled into the pillow, wondering why her father was opening the closet.

 

"Wear something nice. We're going to court." he said before he left, slamming the door behind him, causing one of the door hinges to come loose.

 

Sadly, Kagome dressed in her long sleved dress, it showed none of her skin, only her neck and head, of course. The dress was simple, black, she was going to wear the red one knowing that Inuyasha was going to be there, but she was mad at him, why did he have to do this?

 

As they arrived into the court room, Kagome did not look at Inuyasha once, and he knew she wouldn't. She sat down and wondered why her father did not tell her before the actual trial. Had... Inuyasha asked him not to tell her? She sighed softly, and allowed Inuyasha to sit beside her than scooting away as she had been until then.

 

"Guilty..." was the judges voice at the end of the whole trial.

 

Kagome bit her bottom lip and looked at Inuyasha, she hurried out of the court house to stand outside in the piercing ice cold rain. She shivered at the feeling of the rain, she was trying to calm down, taking deep breaths as she stood.

 

She raised her face to the sky, tears and water running down her cheeks, she loved the rain, hopefully it would make her relax, help her forget she had just send her father to prison. She shivered once more as the water ran down the back of her neck and down her back.

 

"Kami why?" she asked the sky only to feel Inuyasha's hand on her shoulder.

 

"Because, I love you and I want you to be safe and happy..." he whispered into her freezing ear.

 

"I told you I would be happy if he wasn't in jail!" she scream, whipping away from Inuyasha and looking at him to the face, "Why did you do this!" she screamed before running down the steps.

 

Inuyasha watched a Kagome ran, he sighed, she needed to cool off. He wouldn't bug her, she needed to be alone for a bit.

 

He watched which direction she ran in and began to follow slowly, taking stops whenever that he thought that he should turn back. She was heading to the lake, by the direction that she was running he could tell.Inuyasha sighed once more and took a seat down on the ground, he'd check on her if she was gone for more that 10 minutes.

 

A/N: Well, that's all for right now.
