She was there only child, and she was not only an inu demon but a very beautiful one. She had long black hair that reached to her back and she was filled in all the right places. Her eyes were a piercing green and her skin was very smooth and tan, and she had one of the most pure souls. She was what every man wanted.

Born of royal blood to the Higurashi family her mother, Siori, was the queen and she married a demon named Rioko giving birth to their daughter Kagome. 100 years later, Siori had seen Rioko cheat on her with another demoness, and out of pure anger and rage killed Rioko and the demoness named Saishi. After that she had been left alone with her daughter, and she swore she would not let the same fate fall upon her daughter as it did she. So, as Kagome grew up, Siori taught her to never show her emotions to anyone. As she continued to tutor her daughter in the years she noticed that her daughter had a pure soul in her; too pure to be kept hidden away. She was a fool to have not noticed it before. Kagome had a kindness to her that her mother wanted to get rid of. So to make sure her daughter never showed to anyone that her spirit was pure, she called one of her best assassins and asked him to train Kagome to become one herself. Meaning she would have to be brutally trained in order to cut off all emotions, because an assassin must learn to never show weakness.

Kagome's training became harder and harder as the days passed because Siori wanted to make sure Kagome would never show any emotions again when around others and pretty soon her training became so harsh, that she was forced to kill and was left alone to deal with the pain of killing others herself. She hated the thought of having to kill others and she hated what her mother was making her go through, it was just cruel, and she felt as if her mother did not love her. After every assassination they made her go on, she would come back and cry her eyes out in her room, and Sango, Kagome's best friend, would come in and try to soothe her because she too hated what the queen was making her own daughter go through. Kagome was not suited for the position of an assassin, and she never would be because the pure spirit that's in her will never fade no matter how far Siori was going to push her.

Hearing her daughter cry in her room made Siori furious. Her daughter simply had too pure of a soul to make her kill her opponent without the need of someone doing it because she couldn't. Siori had to come up with something and fast.

Siori one day, watched her daughter's training, and she had noticed something that she was an even greater fool to have not noticed before; her daughter had the Shikon Jewel in her. That was it! That was what gave her daughter such a pure soul. Siori asked to see her daughter after her training and the minute she got the chance she used her claws to cut Kagome's side and snatch the jewel which was imbedded there. Kagome was in pain from half of her soul being ripped out, and it was the most intense pain she had ever felt, eventually though, the pain faded. Soon after, she became accustomed to killing people without the feeling of guilt, regret, and without the need of others doing it for her like it was something she's been doing her whole life, and every demon that tried to take her as a mate was annihilated.

Sango was not pleased with what Siori turned her daughter into, and desperately tried to get Kagome the way she used to be but failed. Kagome's eyes were no longer the happy eyes of a young girl, instead they were cold and looked empty; just like a killer. Kagome had been completely twisted into the very being her mother had wanted her to become, but Sango still sensed that pure soul in her. Even though the jewel was gone there was sill a faint pure soul in her that was trying to call for the jewel and become whole again. With hope, Sango was going to bring forth that spirit; she was going to find the jewel, even if it killed her.

Satisfied with her daughter's progress, Siori could now rest knowing that her daughter had become so cold that she let no male even a foot near her. Years later, Siori was assassinated by one of the neighboring nations ruled by Naraku, and Kagome didn't show any emotions that day because there was simply no reason for her to do so anymore. Sango, seeing Siori dead, grew angrier and more annoyed. Siori was the only one that knew where the jewel was and was the only one who could sense it besides Kagome but Kagome could not anymore because Siori had placed a seal around the jewel to prevent her from finding it, but the seal could be broken by Kagome if only she could find it. She needed to help Kagome but she did not know how. Everything had been taken from Kagome; her family, her childhood, love, and everything else a regular girl would need. Kagome was corrupted by her mother and Sango was running out of ideas.

Kagome left her land soon after her mother's death. Siori had created the perfect weapon and Kagome was reluctant to use her skills to kill the hanyou that killed her mother and took her lands. She did not know why, but she fled, not out of fear but out of complete emptiness. She had left her land to Naraku. Sango stayed behind as she watched her friend flee. She needed to find that jewel and she needed to find it fast because Naraku too, was after the jewel which is why he assassinated Siori in the first place, and if Naraku found the jewel before she did it could all be over. All she needed to do was find it without being caught.
