I do not own Inuyasha and neither do the voices in my head.
Chapter 1: Day One.
The light flooded the room as the maid pulled back the curtain's.
"Miss.Higurashi its time to get up. Your father would like to see at breakfast this morning." The young girl nodded drowsily as the older women picked up the dirty closes of the floor. The young girl began to rollover to get up.
"What time is it?" She asked rubbing her eyes.
"Five forty-five mama," she said turning back to walk out the door. As soon as the elder lady walked out the door she laid back down, covering her head with the blanket.

The bedroom door swung open again,"Miss.Higurashi it is time to get up," the tone of the older women's voice was half pleading and half angered. The young girl pulled the blanket off of her head and glared at the maid in her doorway.
"What time is it?" She asked, sounding annoyed.
"It is six fifteen, a half hour later then it was when I was in here earlier." She turned and shut the door. Miss.Higurashi went to pull the cover back over her head when the door reopened abruptly to reveal the aggravated maid "Miss.Higurashi it is time to get up!!"
"OK,OK I'm up" She shrugged the sheets off and stood up.
"Your suit is handing on the door in the bathroom. Hurry!" With that said, the maid turned and closed the door.

The young girl didn't really want to start the day yet. The effects from last night congratulations party still ached in every part of her body. If only she had listened to herself after the third drink then she would have been ok, but oh no she just had to have a fourth and then a fifth, then a sixth and so on and so on. Before she knew it, she was' three sheet to the wind' as they say.
She shock her head hoping to shack the aching a way but no luck. Just deal with it girl. You deserve it for what you did last night and the way you acted, OH GODS THE WAY I ACTED. I really hope mom and dad don't find out about that.Now with that thought in her head she took her time taking her shower and getting dressed. She even managed to take five minute to walk down the stairs that should have only taken 30 seconds if that.
She entered the large dinning room and was greeted by her mother's smiling face. "Good morning Kagome dear. How are we feeling this morning.?"
OH SHE KNOWS !!
"Wonderful." She smiled a fake smile but as usual her parents believed it.
"Are you ready for the office. It is going to be a big day yeah know." In his voice you could hear how proud Mr.Higurashi was of his daughter.
Kagome Higurashi was fresh out of collage and following in her fathers foot step, was going to start to working in the family company. She wasn't sure what exactly she was going to be doing but knowing her dad she was going to have a top position. After all she was spoiled when it came to every thing else and she figured this would be no different.
After entering the room Kagome walked over to her father and kissed him on the cheek as she usually did. Then walked over to her mother and did the same, but before she could walk away her mother seized her arm and stared into her eyes. It really made Kagome uneasy. "Kagome honey do you feel ok, you look a little flushed."
Kagome froze. Oh my god Oh my god she knows. Think quick, think quick."I feel fine mom. It's probably cause my shower was a little warmer then usual."
"Oh, ok dear. Just don't want you sick on your first day honey." Kagome just smiled at her mom and took her place at the table.
There was nothing said as the three ate their breakfast until Kagome's little brother Souta came down and joined them.
He was dressed as a normal teen age boy dresses, baggy jeans and a shirt that is ten times too big as well.
"Good morning my wonderful family,"he sounded over cheerily. "Good morning sis. How was you night last night." He said sarcastically giving Kagome a sly look.
Souta please don't say anything, I know I owe you one after you helped up to my room last night. Ok it really wasn't helped me up to my room. He took me up to my room after he found me past out outside the the front door.
"It was great." Kagome responded with an annoyed smile.
Mr.Higurashi stood up and stretched a little bit, "well kids its time to go, Souta get your backpack and we can drop you off on our way to the office."
"Hey dad," Kagome rang out in a sweet tone,"is it ok if I take my own car. I will meet you there, that way if one of us has to work late and the other don't then we both won't be stuck there."
"Ya know that sounds like a wonderful idea," he chimed. "Already thinking ahead now that is how a Vice President think."
Kagome's mouth dropped open as she just stared at her father. She couldn't believe her ears. Did he really just say 'Vice President'. No way, he's nuts. Me Vice President. A smile came to her face as she thought about it just a little more. "Um dad did I hear you right? Did you say Vice President?" She could hold back the excitement from seeping into her voice.
"Yes dear, I did." The smile on the elder man's face was from ear to ear. Yes he was very proud of his little girl. She got up from her stop and ran to her father and hugged him like there was no tomorrow.
The three got ready for their day and head out the door. "have a good all. I love you all very much." Mrs.Higurashi said walking up to her husband's window. "Let me know if you both are going to be getting done at the same time or at lest around the same time. Maybe we can go out and celebrate as a family, I can get Mel to drop me off at the office and we can all go together."
"Sounds great dear." with that said he kissed lightly on the lips and was off. Kagome followed not far behind his Buick.
It really wasn't the fact of them getting off at different times that influenced Kagome decision in wanting to take her own car, it was cause of the car its self. It was her graduation present from her parents. 1969 Corvette Stingray. Boy did she love that car. And every chance she got to drive it she did, and with it being a beautiful spring day in Chicago she had the top down.

Kagome arrived at the office before her father because he had to drop off Souta at school. So she had time to find her office and look around a little bit before her father made it there. When he arrived, after stopping in his office to grab a stack of papers he made is way to his daughters office. He took a moment out side her door as he stared at her name plate on the door. My little girl has grown up.Was all he could think. A tear came to his eye, but he wiped it away before it could fall.
He entered the office to see Kagome standing by the window looking out over the city. She was in totally awe at the sight before her. She could see the whole city from her window.
"Beautiful isn't it."
"Extremely." Was her reply.
After standing there for a few moments he finally decided that they need to get to work. "Well it's your first day and you will also have your first meeting today too."
Kagome turned around and looked at her father in shock, "a...a meeting already." She sound a little scared."Who's it with??" She didn't know what else to say.
"Don't worry its just a corporate meeting so everyone can get to know you and see what your view on something are, nothing really big. I don't want to scare you away on your first day."
Kagome knew she had the learning for the job she just wasn't sure if she had the balls to do it. She had went to school for four years and majored in business just so she could go to work with her father. That had been all she ever wanted to do. Their family was so close she just thought it natural to for them all to work side by side. In about five years Souta would come to work there as well and then when they had kids they hoped they would do the same.
Higurashi Industry was started by her great-grandfather. And just like she will someday, her grandfather took over the business after his dad had died and now her father was running it because his father was to old to, and a little crazy now too. The Higurashi family came to depend on the business not only for finical reasons but personal too, it was almost like an old family heirloom that no one could part with. And Kagome was more then happy to take part in keeping it that way.
"Well, I suppose, now or never right." Kagome smiled at her dad.
"That's right sweaty, lets go."

The meeting went smoothly. So far everyone liked Kagome and she had some good ideas on a few things. But there was a lot of things she didn't understand. Some of the things the company was working were to technical for her. They tried to explain some of the things what they did, who they were for, and even how long it takes to make something like it, all she did was nod her head as though she really knew what they were talking about.
She sat in her office looking through all the papers that were given to her at the meeting. Some she need to sign and other were just more information on the products. She want to look over them all and maybe then she would understand things a little more after all she was now the Vice President of the company and it wouldn't look good if she didn't know what they did.
"Hey honey." Kagome lifted her head to see her mother walking into her office.
"Hi mom."
"So are you ready to go, I got us reservations at BellMond." She said with a smile.
"Well I have a few more papers I need to look over. Why don't you guys go ahead, I think dad is already done so I can just meet you there, K?"
"No problem sweaty, we will see you there." With that she and walked out the door.
Kagome watch her open the door and out of the blue she said, "hey mom I love you."
Her mother smiled, " I love you too sweaty."
Kagome went back to her papers.
It was about a half hour or so later when Kagome looked at the clock decided to go head and go. She put the remaining papers that she hadn't look through away in her briefcase, she thought she could finish looking at them at home. Then she grabbed her coat and left.
She walked down the hall to elevator and stood thinking while she waited for it. Never expecting what was going to happen to happen.
The of the elevator slide open and before Kagome had even notice. A clawed hand came out and grabbed her around the waist and drug her into the small compartment. Another reached around and grabbed her mouth before she had the chance to yell.
Kagome pulled herself around to and stared strait into dark golden orbs.
