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

“Kagome you need to stay focused on your incantations!” her grandfather snapped as Kagome was lost in thought.

“Sorry Grandfather, I spaced for a second.”

“Yes well in a battle with a demon if you as you put it `space' than you will be torn to pieces and devoured inch by inch. First he would tear all the skin off your body inch by inch. Then he would rip you into pieces and devour you then use your arm as a toothpick!”

“Grandfather must you be so graphic?” Kagome inquired.

“To get you to pay more attention then YES!”

“Well I'm paying attention now. So what do you want me to do now?”

“With that mouth he might just eat your head first just to get you to shut up.” Her grandfather whispered under his breath he then said to her, “Well that's enough for incantations lets move onto your archery and battle skills.”

They walked back into the Sacred Woods where they usually practiced her battle skills.

The Sacred Woods were located right behind the shrine. Kagome always felt that it was

stupid how everything had sacred in front of the name at her house, even though she did live at a shrine.

“Now Kagome to start your battle skills remember what we talked about yesterday always know what your combatant is going to do before he does.”

“Uh em…he.” Kagome said staring at her grandfather with an evil stare.

“Gah does it matter that much the sex of your combatant!”

“Well why can't my combatant be a girl huh.”

“Whatever…just stay on the main idea which is to kill the person or demon that you are fighting against!”

Her grandfather handed Kagome a sword and they stood at stance. They circled each other holding their swords arms length away.

“Now Kagome look deep into my eyes and never look away for the eyes show what your combatant plans to do.” Her grandfather said intently pointing to his eyes with his left hand.

Kagome did as instructed and then she saw that gleam in which gave her an instinct to turn right and jump. Just as she did so her grandfather swung his sword to the right and went right under her legs. She was now right behind her grandfather and had the upper hand she was then put her sword against her grandfathers back.

“Victory is mine!” Kagome said in joy.

“Ha you say this now, but the art of battle is that it's never over until someone is on the ground.” He swung his sword to the left and then with his left arm pushed Kagome down

and as she was on the ground he pointed his sword right under her chin.

“Now Victory is mine! Haha Kagome your biggest flaw was you hesitated. The second flaw was you looked at what was happening when I retaliated instead of doing what this lesson was about which was to always look into your combatants' eyes.”

Kagome got up and dusted off her robes and picked up her sword off of the ground.

“Oh yeah old man…” Kagome took her sword and threw it in front of her grandfather who was turned away from Kagome. She then jumped over her grandfather and pulled the blade out of the ground and then she then kicked her grandfather in the stomach.

The impact of her kick threw her grandfather on the ground and Kagome then pointed her sword under his chin.

“Touché Kagome…Touché. I think that you pass this battle lesson.” Her grandfather said dragging himself off of the ground.

The targets were demon heads that were freshly killed.

“Ok Kagome now take your arrow and remember solely focus on your target.”

“Grandfather I've been sword fighting and arrow shooting since I was 4 I think I know

what I'm supposed to do.” She said as her eyes were fixed upon a demon pigs head that

was about 20 yards away.

Kagome then pulled back her bow They next went to the archery area and Kagome picked up her bow and arrows.

and then waited until she sensed where the pig demons

weakest point on his head was. She then shot the arrow and didn't take down her bow until the arrow hit the pig.

Her grandfather walked over to the target and looked at where the arrow hit. Which was right in the middle of its head.

“Very good Kagome. I think that we should take the rest of the day off.”
“Ok see you at dinner grandfather!” Kagome ran back to her house and went

into her room and changed cloths.

Kagome picked up the phone that was on her night stand and called her best friend Sango who was a demon slayer.

“Hi Kagome. Oh my god you wouldn't guess who asked about you today when I was walking on the street after grocery shopping!”

“Who Sango! If you say Miroku then what else is new.” Kagome replied letting out a sigh since Miroku who was a very close friend of her and Sango, but he always hit on girls like no tomorrow.

“NOOO…guess again.” Sango playfully said with a giggle.

“I don't know…Sango just tell me!”

“Calm down sparky…ok it was Hojo!”

Kagome almost fell over herself when she heard his name as she screamed with delight.

“Nu uh! Did he really! What did he want! Why would he ask about me!”

“Kagome settle down and talk slower sheesh. Anyway I was walking and I ran into him well he said hi and I said hi and then he said where is Kagome aren't you two practically inseparable and he also said for me to tell you hi!”

Kagome giggled and started to blush at the thought that a boy actually noticed she wasn't around.

Kagome continued to talk to Sango mainly about what she did today at training and what they should do that night. They ended the conversation at the idea of going to a local concert that started in two hours. Kagome then decided that what she had changed into wasn't cute enough for a concert filled of hot boys and possibly Hojo. She went into her closet and threw out every top that wasn't cute enough for tonight. She decided upon wearing a black lacy tank top that had a ribbon in the back. She then found her favorite

black leather skirt and her black high heels. After checking herself in a mirror for a half an hour she felt that she looked good enough to go out. Kagome picked up her cell phone and called Sango saying that she would pick her up in a couple minutes.

“Kagome.” Kagome's mother said as she knocked on her daughters' door.

“Yes mom.”

“What are your plans for tonight?”

“I am going with Sango to a concert.”

“Oh ok have fun don't forget to take your knives and such with you. After all you never know when a demon might get in the way.”

Kagome sighed at what she already knew and replied, “I know mom I'll be careful it would be nice to have one night to myself though.”

“Oh don't forget to tell Sango to bring her big boomerang thing with her I want you girls to be prepared for any attack your grandfather says that you need to remember the eye…whatever that means.” Kagome all the time her mother was talking was hand mimicking her mother.

Kagome grabbed her car keys and her cell phone and walked out of her room and headed for the front door she was about to turn the knob when her brother interrupted her.

“Hey Kagome where are you going…and dressed like that no less.” Sota asked biting into an apple her mother and grandfather came into the living room and they both looked Kagome up and down.

“Kagome that is what you are wearing!” Her mother asked with her and Kagome's grandfathers' jaw dropped.

“You look like a slut!” Her grandfather said.

“Gah, I'm leaving as is and I need to leave now or Sango is going to get impatient and we will end up missing the concert!” Kagome yelled opening the front door and then slamming it behind her as she made a run for her car.

Inuyasha got up off of the couch and looked at his watch.

“Show time.” He said with a smirk and went out of his apartment.

*Ring*

Inuyasha answered his cell phone as he headed for the parking garage.

“Inuyasha jesus man when are you going to get here!”

“Hey Naraku will you lay off I am on my way right now.”

“Just get here.”

Inuyasha hung up and got on his motorcycle and sped off.

He reached the club and parked his motorcycle into the alley.

Inuyasha went into the club and sat at his usual table in the back he was then joined by a woman with raven hair.

“Hello Inuyasha it's about fucking time you got here!”

“Well sorry I didn't know that I was that badly needed. Where is that boy toy of yours?”

“Haha Inuyasha is jealous! I have a boyfriend and while you are still surfing the singles.” Kikyo boasted doing a dance with her fingers as she sat on her stool.

“Yeah I am so jealous…haha you should be the one who is jealous you are tied down and I am free as a bird to look at who ever I want.” Inuyasha joked back.“

Who would be pathetic enough to choose a hanyou like you?”

“You did…retard.”

“Shut up!” Kikyo snapped back in defeat.

Naraku then approached the table and took his seat right next to his girlfriend.

“What was that all about I could hear you guys bicker all the way by the bar.” Naraku said.

“You know the usual.” Kikyo said placing her head on Narakus' shoulder.

***************************************

Kagome parked outside of Sangos' house and honked her horn.

Sango came running out in a black mini skirt and pink tank top.

“God it took you long enough Kag!” Sango said putting her seat belt on.

“Yeah well I ran into a speed bump when my grandfather and mom looked at my outfit and my mom made sure that I had my knives and crap.”

“Well your mom just wants you to have all that you need so you can kick some serious demon ass!”

“Wait…where is your boomerang?”

“I'm not bringing it with me are you serious!”

They drove to Miroku's house next and he was wearing a Miami Vice like suit that was black and had a red tie with its sleeves rolled up he got into the back seat of the car.

Sango and Kagome started bursting out laughing.

“What is so funny?” Miroku asked.

“Looks like someone is stuck back into the eighties!” Sango said still giggling.

“Hey! The ladies go for this look.” Miroku said trying to sound swave.

“Yeah ok maybe if they like Miami Vice!” Kagome jumped in.

“Hey! That was a great show!” Miroku said getting irritated.

It was twenty minutes later when they arrived at the concert which was being held at the club, Alien. At this club if you looked old enough you were old enough.

Miroku was first to walk in and the bouncer looked him up and down and then smiled and said, “Hey you must be old enough you are a fan of Miami Vice!”

Miroku sighed and stared at the ground as everyone around him laughed.

Kagome and Sango followed and went to the bar they saw Miroku jumping from girl to girl.

“Doesn't take him long.” Sango said looking at her friend get rejected by almost every girl at the bar.

“Yeah well that's Miroku for you.” Kagome said smiling.

Kagome and Sango then walked to a table by the dance floor.

“So who is playing tonight?” Sango asked looking at the rodies set up the band instruments.

“I'm not sure…but I do know that Hojos' band might.” Kagome said blushing a little bit.

“Haha now I see why we are here. Why don't you go find him and strike up a conversation?”

“If I could find him I would. Man you can be pushy Sango.”

“Yeah well someone has to push you out of the nest so you can learn to fly.”

“What is that suppose to mean!”

“Well even though you can kick serious demon ass and are one not to be reckoned with you kind of lack flirting skills Kag.”

“Yeah ok.” Kagome started to stare off and look at the band who were just getting situated on stage and then she saw Hojo walk up to the microphone with his guitar

and everyone seemed to disappear. Sango noticed Kagome looking at him and pulled her friend off of the stool and took her right up in front of the stage.

Hojo looked down at Kagome and smiled then he started with his first song.

**************************************************************

“Inuyasha, Naraku and I are going to go dance so you can watch our table oh and my purse ok!” Kikyo said smiling as she put her purse in his lap.

Inuyasha looked at the purse and threw it at Kikyo hitting Naraku instead.

“Hey! Inuyasha what the fuck was that for bitch!”

“Sorry it would have hit Kikyo instead if your big head wasn't in the way.”

Inuyasha then got up and walked over to the bar and ordered straight vodka which he gulped down in one sip. And having nothing else to do he walked in the front of the crowd and watched the band that was playing. That is when he noticed a girl who he mistook for Kikyo. Inuyasha walked up behind the girl and grabbed her shoulders.

“Excuse me!” Kagome said turning around to see who was shaking her shoulders.

“Sorry I thought you were a friend of mine.” Inuyasha said noticing that this girl had different cloths on than Kikyo.

“Its ok mistakes happen.” Kagome said turning back around to watch the band.

“Kagome he was kind of cute. Maybe you should go dance with him.” Sango said into her friend's ear.

“There is something weird about him Sango. Almost like he is a demon, but not quite.”

“A hanyou?” Sango asked.

“A what??”

“What does your grandfather teach you Kag? A hanyou is neither demon nor human. But a mix like a hanyou can have a demon father and have a human mother or vise versa.”

“Gramps probably told me, but I don't pay that much attention when he goes on to the different types of demons and such all I care about is if it's a demon I kill it.” Kagome said laughing.

After Hojo set he went and found Kagome.

“Hey Kagome!” Hojo said shouting over a group of people that were in his way. Hojo then started to make his way through the group and came up to Kagome.

“Hi Hojo you did great.” Kagome said smiling.

“Thanks that means a lot to me coming from you Kagome.”

“Oh my god did Hojo really just say that to me…eeek don't blow your cool Kagome…” She thought to herself.

“So how is your summer so far?”

“Good I haven't done a lot really. I've mostly just been staying at home you know doing stuff.”

“Yeah mine has been that way too. Say the next band is starting to play would you like to dance?” Hojo said extending his arm to Kagome.

“Uh huh.” Kagome said nodding and she could feel herself blushing.

Hojo brought her close to him and rested his head on her shoulder in return Kagome placed her head on his chest. She was doing her happy dance in her head and could feel her cheeks getting redder.

***************************************************************** ***

Inuyasha was back sitting at his table when he saw that girl that looked like Kikyo dancing with the guy in the band. Inuyasha didn't know why but he was sickened by her dancing with that guy. He didn't even know her and he felt jealous. He couldn't turn away there was just something about her that made him wish that he was that guy dancing with her.

“Of course just my fucking luck the girl that I want already has a boyfriend god I'm pathetic why do I even feel jealous I only talked to her once! I don't even know her name!” Inuyasha thought to himself.

Kikyo disrupted his thoughts when she sat down.

“Inuyasha do you have a crush on that girl?” Kikyo said smiling.

“No…wait what girl…back off!” Inuyasha said realizing he made a big mistake in acknowledging that there was a girl which opened the door for Kikyo.

“Ah ha I see your trouble. She is much to pretty for you plus she has a boyfriend who is also way hotter than you.”

“Meh…she isn't my type…besides she looks like you and you are one ugly hoe!” Inuyasha said laughing

“Inuyasha first off I will seriously rip off your dick and feed it to the wolf demons

especially that one Kouga fellow if you wish and second you don't even have a type.”

“Kikyo you suck…” Inuyasha said looking away after running out of comebacks.

The song was over and Kagome noticed that Hojo and her were still dancing.

“Uh the song is over.” Kagome said blushing.

“Hey what are you doing after this?”

“Well I don't know…I have to take Miroku and Sango home and I brought my car.”

“Oh I see. Well then if you want to we could see a movie tomorrow or something.”

“Oh my fucking god did he just say what I think he said! Am I dreaming! Don't wake up Kagome!” Kagome thought to herself.

“Uh Kagome? Are you among the living?” Hojo said smiling and waving his hand in front of her face.

“Uh huh sounds great.” Kagome finally managed to say.

Hojo then walked towards the bar to get himself a drink and Kagome went to tell her friends what just happened to her.

“Kagome! What happened tell us everything!” Sango said patting a chair next to her for her friend to sit in.

“Yes tell us Kagome, Hojo is a good fellow even if he doesn't have my devilishly charm and looks.” Miroku jumped in.

“Ok Miroku keep telling yourself that if it helps you sleep at night. Anyway so I was dancing with Hojo and he asked if I wanted to do something with him tomorrow!”

“Oh my little Kag is growing up.” Sango said grabbing Kagome's shoulders.

*****************************************************************

“Inuyasha you need to live a little go to that one girl and ask her to dance or something you are making everyone depressed just looking at you!” Kikyo said.

“Get it through your thick skull I don't like her! Being here is just boring as fuck.”

“But we are here do we not lighten up the mood at all! Are we not fun?”

“You are right Kikyo you two make being here worse!” Inuyasha rested his head in his

palm and turned to look away at the dance floor.

“Inuyasha you seriously need to learn how to socialize and stop acting like the emotional attention deprived little mutt that you are.” Naraku cut in.

“Peh whatever I'm going to go get myself a drink.”

Inuyasha got up and went back to the bar and downed another shot of vodka then downed that shot with a shot of whiskey.

“Hey buddy keep that up and you will have a mean hangover tomorrow.” The bartender said to Inuyasha while cleaning out a glass.

“Well in that case get me a nice cold beer along with a shot of whiskey.” Inuyasha said irritated.

The bartender grabbed the shot glass and refilled it with whiskey and then handed Inuyasha a bottle of beer. Inuyasha took the shot glass and swirled the beverage gazing intently at the amber liquid before drinking it. He took the beer and walked around the club until he found a place to sit where he was completely out of sight from Kikyo and Naraku.

******************************************

Sango excused herself and went to the bar to get beverages for herself and her friends.

As she walked away with the beverages on a tray she saw Hojo, but she didn't just see Hojo she saw a petite girl with dirty blonde hair kissing Hojo.

“That little…FUCK!” Sango said under her breath with an angry tone. She clenched her fist and dropped the tray on a table near by. Sango then walked over to Hojo.

“Ok since he and Kagome technically aren't going out don't over due it Sango just be cool and act like you didn't see him kissing that whore looking girl. Just go up to him

and put distance between him and that little slut.” Sango said as she continued to march up to Hojo.

“Hi Hojo!” Sango said greeting him and pushing herself between him and the blonde.

“Hi Sango how are you?” Hojo said rubbing the back of his head in a nervous sounding voice.

“Good I'm so happy that you and Kagome are hooking up! You know there aren't many girls like her. After all you two have so much in common and make the cutest couple!”

Sango said with a giant smile.

“Hehe am I good or am I good that should hold off that little twat.” Sango said evilly to herself.

“Umm…Hojo babe you never told me about this Kagome.” The blonde said pushing herself back between Sango and Hojo then putting her arm around his waist and resting her head on his chest.

“Oh hi I'm sorry I didn't see you there I'm Sango.”

“Roxanne.” The blonde girl said with a smile.

“Well Hojo I see you are busy with a tramp so I will talk to you later.” Sango leaned closer to his ear and whispered, “You aren't that good of a musician to start gathering groupies. I'm watching you.” With that said Sango picked up the tray of drinks and walked away leaving Hojo pale.

“Jeez Sango if getting drinks is that difficult I'll go get them next time.” Miroku said grabbing his rum and coke.

“I had a chat with a friend.”

“It's ok Sango. I still can't believe that I am going to go on a date with Hojo!” Kagome said giddy as she picked up her drink and sipped the contents through a straw.

“Yeah…Kagome about that.” Sango said looking at her friend.

“What? What is going on Sango?” Kagome said as the color from her cheeks turned sheepish.

“Well we just have to get you a new cute outfit to wear before you see him!” Sango said not wanting to break her friends' heart.

Miroku leaned close to Sango and asked her in a low tone, “What is really going on?”

Sango turned to him and said that she would tell him later.

Many drinks later Miroku, Sango, and Kagome were all on the dance floor dancing.

Miroku kept trying to grind on Sango and Sango kept pushing Miroku away. Kagome on the other hand was just off in her own little world and decided to go find Hojo.

Kagome sweaty and exhausted left the dance floor and went about looking for Hojo.

Kagome then found him sitting at a table with a group of girls all around him and a few of his band mates.

Kagome walked up from behind him and then heard him say, “Don't worry ladies I don't have a girlfriend and don't have a curfew.”

Kagome furious and saddened stormed away as tears developed in her eyes.

She was off into thought and sadness that she wasn't paying any attention to where she was going and bumped into something solid. Kagome took a step back and looked up at what she had walked into. It was the boy who mistook her for his friend.

“Sorry.” The boy said.

“It's alright I guess we keep getting in the way of each other.” Kagome replied.

Before Inuyasha could say anything else Kagome walked away and headed for the bar.

She then drank every drink she could afford with the money she had in her purse.

After her last glass of vodka Kagome staggered away from the bar and went looking for her friends the room was spinning and she bumped into a big group of people.

She just about reached Sango when Kagome collapsed.

************************************************************

Inuyasha disappointed that he didn't say anything else to that girl continued walking around the club searching for something to do when he noticed Kagome swaggering and running into people. Inuyasha sensed that there was something wrong with the girl who he had been interested in all night and began walking towards her when the girl fell to the ground and passed out.

***************************************************************

“Kagome? Come on Kagome wake up!”

Kagomes' eyes fluttered open and her vision was blurry but she could make out 3 figures. She could tell that two of the figures were Sango and Miroku, but she didn't know the third. As her vision started to clear she could make out that the third figure had beautiful silver hair and a strong build.

“Hey are you alright?” Asked the silver haired figure.

“What…what happened. Ah my head hurts!” Kagome touched her head and winced in pain.

“You really know how to keep your alcohol down don't you. You are really light weight.”

“Who? Who are you?”

“I'm Inuyasha they guy you kept bumping into.” Inuyasha said with a smile.

“I'm sorry. I'm Kagome.”

“You also puked all over my shoes.”

Kagome sat up and realized she was still at the club.

“Kagome why did you drink so much? Usually you are the responsible one and you are the one helping Miroku sober up especially when he starts ripping off his cloths.” Sango said putting a wet wash cloth on her head.

“I saw Hojo with a group of girls and he was being a jerk.”

“Oh well I hate to tell you, but he was all over this blonde chick.”

“I just need to go home.”

“Come on Kags I'll drive.” Sango said helping her friend up and helping her walk to the car Miroku followed his two friends.

Inuyasha yet again was left standing by himself. He went back to his friends Kikyo and Naraku.

“Hey lover boy I saw you with that girl. Tell me do you always decide to make a move when they are passed out?” Naraku said mockingly

“Shut up you know what fuck it I'm leaving.”

“What is his problem?” Naraku said looking at Inuyasha storming towards the door.

“It's just stubborn old Inuyasha.” Kikyo replied.

Inuyasha reached his motorcycle and sped away.
