'How did I end up this way?' She thought as she walked along the line of shackled women in the long narrow hallway. The handcuffs were etching at her soft milky skin and her hair was in duress from the shower less night she had spent in the prison. Her eyes were adorned with bags from worry of what would happen to her life next.

Never before had she been worried about what her future would bring because up until this moment it had been unimportant. She knew it would be a decent future that most people would not have the pleasure of having but now it was different. She wasn't a fugitive cause she had not been convicted but she still wasn't innocent. Even though, she smiled as they took her mug shot and she tried her hardest to cheer her friends up in lockup.

The guard led her to a small empty cell that was covered with small holes. It was tiny. No more then five feet wide in all directions, ten feet tall. She leaned her head against the cold surface of the small room as she watched people pass through the holes in front of her. To either side of here there were more small chambers for more criminals to enter just as she had. Yet had she seen any of her friends other then the one on her way inside.

He wasn't afraid she could tell that and he held his head high as stoic as he was enthralling. Next to him sat the man who brought them there. The man that gave away there position in the world and got them caught.

Her cerulean blue eyes narrowed at the thought of him and how she couldn't wait to masocate him when she got out of her small cell. As she continued to dream of what she would do to him she saw her best friend pass her and enter the next cell with a flurry of silver hair.

She brought her face up to the holes and called for him in hopes he might reply.

"Inuyasha...are you ok?" She pressed her ear to the side so she might have a chance of hearing him better.

"Feh! How am I supposed to feel being locked away like this?" She hears him shuffle and plop on the ground.

"Well hey think of it this way...friends call you in jail, good friends visit you in jail but best friends are next to you saying 'dude that was awesome!' So cheer up cause DUDE THAT WAS AWESOME!!!!" laughter filled the other cells that surrounded them in the hallway.

"You guys are some crazy." Said a man on the other side of her.

She smirked at his comment as she thought of something else to say to him. "You think that is crazy there are five of us here."

"Five! You guys must have been doing something crazy." The rough voice sounded again.

"Yea and another one is in Juvi. I guess we are some kinda crazy." She slouched over some as she looked out of her cramped cell.

"So what is your name?" The man asked her once again.

"Kagome. Kagome Higurashi." She grabbed her wavy black hair and placed it in a ponytail high above her head. "So Inuyasha did you see them on your way inside?"

"Yea Miroku looked pretty pissed and he never shows his emotions to anyone." He said as a guard walked by lugging another person in cuffs with him.

"Maybe that's cause they locked him up with the guy who gave us away. I mean when we did this didn't we say 'if one gets caught he alone gets caught.' Now look at us. He got every last one of us in here for something he did." She heard him take a breath and then silently heard him say, "Even you."

Kagome hurriedly stood up and pressed her whole body on the cold surface in the direction of her most loyal friend. "But at least I am here with you!" She said with more urgency then before. " You could be here alone or without me but I am here for you. Even if I am in jail also." She sighed heavily as she saw a guard come by and walk past her cell to Inuyasha's.

As she watched she saw him take her friend out of the cell right next to hers and move him down to the one furthest from her. When the guard came back she couldn't help but ask, "Why couldn't you have just left him alone. We weren't hurting anything everyone else is talking." The guard didn't even pay mind to her speaking as he opened her cell and moved her even further away from her friend. She didn't struggle or complain she just did what was needed of her. She was already in a bad position why make it any worse.

As she entered the cell she realized this time it was a little bit bigger. That was because there was also another women in the room with her. The women in the room looked like she had been fed to the wolves. Her blonde hair was messy and her clothes looked like they hadn't been washed in a week. To add on to the whole outlook of this picture the women had a boot on her left leg. It was a caste but not quite.

Kagome slid down the opposite side of the wall and relaxed against it. Just when she was starting to relax the women across form her spoke.

"What are you in here for?" The women had asked.

Kagome finally registering the women was talking to her decided it was time to face the fact and tell 'her' story for it was going to be a long night cooped up in this place. Even though she wasn't in her actual cell she realized it would be a while before they got her booked in so she thought it would be fine to tell it.

"Well you see there are five of us in here. But only four of us are friends. There is me, Miroku, Inuyasha and Koga. There is a fifth but he was to young and they sent him to juvi." Kagome paused in the long telling of her story to think about poor Shippou all alone in his domain. His parents most likely already bailed him out anyway. She brought her knees up to her chest and laid her arms across them for support.

"Ok here is the story..."and as she began the story the events all came rushing back to her head as if they all started yesterday.

Kagome lived on a small island off the coast of Japan. She was thankfully away from all the things her mother had feared she would be around. She was away from the raping, the killing, and the stealing. But that also kept her from having any friends of her own. There were ways off and on the island for it wasn't to far off the coast. There was a small bridge that was the only way in and out of the island.

The school she attended was very small and only contained about six hundred students. Everyone knew each other and rumors spread like wildfire in a forest. But somehow Kagome managed to keep to herself. It made her an outcaste, made people think she was unordinary but it kept her happy.

All of her experiences changed that frightful day she met her best friend. His name was Inuyasha. The silver hair never came up to be weird, as she had accepted every aspect of whom he was. Kagome may have kept to herself but she was well liked by many people.

As she sat in class waiting for the teachers boring lectures to continue he had walked in and placed himself next to her. He was a new student of course from the big city of Tokyo. But Kagome never saw him to be the city type.

"Mrs. Higurashi, can you please show Inuyasha around. He seems less coordinated then most students in the school." That was when Kagome and Inuyasha realized exactly how different they were from one another.

As Kagome showed him around she heard him snuff and shuffle around with his large boots and his read attire. She tried her hardest not to laugh at the distasteful look on his face when she pointed out the cafeteria.

"So Inuyasha why did you leave the Tokyo area to come here. I mean this place can't be anything compared to there right?" Kagome said not turning around to face him.

"I had to cause of my stupid family. My brother began a business not too far from here and my father insisted I move here." He said as she finally pointed out the library.

"Well I think I am pretty much done with this tour of our small but beautiful school. So have a good day I guess. I am not sure if we have anymore classes together thought." She smiled brightly at him as she turned to walk away.

"Hey come back here! I am not finished with you yet!" But she didn't stop for him and he was graced with her back as she walked away. "I still have some questions."

At his words she turned around to answer his pleas. "What sort of questions do you have?"

"Well I just wanted to know what time lunch and is when we get out of school." He said shyly.

"Lunch is at 11:40 and school is over at 2:20. See ya later." She said happily as she waved and walked away, her green skirt blowing around in the wind.

After that day she and Inuyasha became friends quickly. They did everything together and also began hanging around more and more people. Kagome had introduced him to Miroku, Koga, Sango and Shippou. Luckily for him they were mostly guys. But in the small town there was something that always made Kagome wonder.

It all began with him. With the enigma of her heart that made her squeal at every thought of him. No she didn't know much about him because she had only seen him very few times. She would see him every here and there but she never stopped to talk to him or even thought about approaching him. His name to her was as silent as the night sky. For she didn't believe she would ever know it.

She would see him across the street from the school in his business attire eating lunch at the town restaurant. Just seeing him there made her want to get a job. What it would be like to talk to him, if such things were permitted.

He had hair similar to Inuyasha's but he was different in many ways. Kagome would end up sitting on the outskirts of school everyday waiting and hopping to see him at the small restaurant. She didn't find herself obsessive at all. A girl day dreaming about a handsome man was something she thought to be normal.

"Hey Kagome." She was slammed out of her daydream as her best friend approached her.

"Oh hi Inuyasha. Whats up?" He sat next to her and glanced at the direction she was looking in.

He couldn't help it. The laughter that escaped him when he saw who she was staring at.

She slapped his arm and looked at him with a small bit of surprise.

"So tell me oh Might Inuyasha what is so funny?" She said as she pulled a notebook from her yellow backpack.

"That man you were oogling at is my brother."
