Kagome woke abruptly to thunder crackling outside. Her window shook with each blast, while lightning brightened the entire sky, bathing the land in an erie light, rain torrented against her window. It was all so calming, a great and terrible beauty. Kagome laid on her back and closed her eyes, listening to the steady booms.Not even a second was spared from the flash and rumble. Kagome slowly fell asleep,. heart seeming to stop with every crash. That couldn't be good for her.

------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Kagome woke early and dressed quickly. She noticed Mikagi sprawled on his bed. Her stomach twisted at the thought of him kissing her. He was her FATHER for Kami's sake. She pulled open the door allowing the cool morning air to hit her. Pulling her bag on she let the screen door smack shut behind her.
She walked slowly, knowing she had 1 hour to walk 15 minutes. She wandered past the park. 'I wonder who that guy was?' the thought struck her suddenly as she realized she didn't even know his name. Kagome entered the park and walked for a bit. Glancing at her watch she saw she had 45 minutes, and sat down on the swing. The park was empty this early in the morning so she could just sit there. Very suddenly she felt someone puch her gently from behind causing her to move forward. Turning behind her she saw the man from yesterday, his face not giving away any emotion but his eyes read that of mirth.
"Who are you?" she asked trying to keep the surprise out of her voice. She ended up croaking the sentence. The man's eyes laughed at her directness, or maybe just at her, his face didn't move except for one corner of his mouth.
"Takahashi, Sesshomaru. And you?" Sesshomaru why he was even talking to Kagome, after she hadn't remembered him, he tried to distance himself. Perhaps it was because she looked so fragile, or maybe he wanted her back. Unconciously he contnued to push her gently.
"Higarashi, Kagome.... Takahashi-sama will you please stop pushing me." Sesshomaru had indeed been pushing her steadily, it was very relaxing to him, it brought back memories which he mentally dissmissed. He grabbed the chains when she swung back towards him.
"Of course Higarashi-san." And why was he being formal? Usually he didn't care for respect. He didn't even talk much unless he was at the theatre with a cast of actors, or when he was torturing his brother with pranks. He let her down slowly, and turned away. Kagome watched him turn to leave. 'His name sounds so familiar. Where have I heard it before? Takahashi... I know I've heard it.' Kagome glanced at her watch and realized she had 10 minutes to get to school. Good thing she had already walked the first 10 minutes.

--------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey Kagome-chan" Kagome stopped abruptly and turned to see Yumi coming towards her holding a sheef of papers.
"Yes?" Yumi was one of the only people Kagome ever talked to, if rarely, she was her usual co-star in many of the school plays. She too was going to NYU but not on a full ride.
"If you would come to the end of school party? At my house? You know for seniors." Kagome could tell Yumi was uneasy at Kagome's appearance. Then again everyone was.
"Yea sure." Yumi handed her a paper and turned away. "Wait Yumi? Do you know the last name Takahashi?" She wasn't sure why she was even asking this girl. It was a name from her silent past, one she barely recollected from the time she was 15 after she awoke from her coma.
"Yea I do. Inuyasha Takahashi is in our grade. He's basically the richest and hottest guy at school. His brother Sesshomaru graduated last year. Why do you want to know Kagome?"
"Nevermind. I couldn't place the name earlier." Yumi nodded obviously distracted by someone behind her. "See you later Yumi." Yumi nodded and walked away. Kagome glanced at the invitation and walked to her science class.
His name continued to haunt her throughout the day. Giving her a headache every time she tried to remember. As she walked home she glanced at the park. A rush of familiarity washed over her that hadn't been there before. Suddenly two kids bust out of the trees. The world seemed to shift. Nothing was in color. It was as if she stepped into an old movie. The little girl dashed to the swings with a small boy following closely behind. The girl's dark hair moved freely in the wind. Kagome looked at her own black hair.They must have been about 7. The girl sat on the swing and the boy began to push her gently. the tinkling sound of laughter met her ears as she watched the two children. The boy continued to push the girl, his hair pulled into a pony tail, she could tell it was a light color, Kagome watched as another small boy bame over to the pair, and pointed to the swing, his lips moving. Strangely no sound reached Kagome's ears. She watched as the light haired boy shook his head and pointed to the sand box, while moving in front of the girl. The girl then began to say something to her accomplice then hopped off the swing. The small boy got on and the firl pushed him, enlisting the other boy's help. The three began to laugh. The pair then broke off their pushing and began walking toward Kagome, the small boy still on the swing with his face in a smile. The boy and girl walked past Kagome without seeing her, hand in hand. The boy turned briefly and locked eyes with Kagome, his glare unsure and protective. Kagome blinked as the boy turned back around.
Kagome opened her eyes and found herself in the deserted park resting on a swing. The faint sound of laughter met her ears.

So basically with 3/6 reviews I figured you people deserved the second half. However I still need 3 MORE REVIEWS to put up chap 4 and 5. I'll be generous. I love writing and normally I would just put up the chapters but its annoying not knowing if people like it or not. Chapter 5 is on standby. Basically I'll put up chapter 4 and then I won't demand reviews for 5. Keep in mind the more reviews I get the faster I write. xoxo-pc.
