The sharp shatter rang through the house.

"GET OUT NOW!" The women's voice sounded tired, and shaky.

"YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO WOMEN! THIS IS MY HOUSE, I PAY THE BILLS HERE!" The male hard, stable voice countered.

"You don't do any of that! You don't even had a job you drunk!" A child's crying ran in the distance.

The man growled fury blazing in his eyes. Before the women could get away to the other room he snatched her arm with no care for her well being, and dragged her back to the walk-in freezer against her will.

"You little bitch, your the cause of those mistakes. Since you can't keep the stupid kid quiet I will!" He shoved the women in the freezer barricading the door.

Pounding could be heard from the inside, and crying. "Don't you touch them." She sobbed her tears muffling as she curled up to escape the cold.

The younger six year old girl gasped witnessing all this, and her angry father marching toward the door. Without any further stalling she ran to her little brothers room, and kneeled down her raven black hair gaining the boys attention.

"Come on Souta, we have to leave." She swept the infant up in her arms, covering him with a blanket before she banged at the lock to open it. Her father smashed open the door only in time to see the window open, and a few gust swaying the curtains.

"Now Ms. Higurashi would you like to chat today?" A unemotional male voice asked over the speaker to a very bright white room.

The room was pure white, not special shaped, just rather small with a mirror type window across one wall.

In the middle of the room sat a girl on a plain white chair by the name of Kagome Higurashi.

Raven black hair trailed all the way down to her hips, and she had empty brown eyes. She was wearing a pure white patience dress, and had her fingers closed clutching onto the fabric on her lap. Her eyes were wide open, but the dark circles on it showed she hadn't slept well for a long time. Scars stretched from the back of her cheek down to her chin. Other scars also remained like on her back, and shoulder blade.

"Well Ms. Higurashi, will you talk to me?" The voice asked again, but Kagome made no movement to answer.

It was so hard to tell this girl was already 14 as she still reminded them of the ten year old girl who came in here four years ago.

"I'm dying aren't I?" Her abrupt question must have shocked the people on the other side of the glass for there were a few gasps before the people quickly switched off the microphone, and went into a hushed conversation.

Kagome remain unmoving, other then her rapid heart pace, and her occasional short breaths.

"Why Ms. Higurashi, do you think that?" The unemotional voice asked again.

Kagome finally blinked her eyes stopping, tears from falling.

"I'm dying, I can tell. I grow older, I get weaker everyday, and I grow tired of this. When will I be allowed to leave. I don't care if it kills me. What is wrong with me? I can tell there's something. Why do you treat me this way?"

There was silence before all lights in the room flickered off eloping the girl in darkness. She showed no reaction to it just remained in the same position as foot steps came down the hall, and the door opened. She could feel the people come up from behind her guiding her up by her shoulders.

"If you must know young one, you are suffering from Cancer, an incurable disease. However if you were be tested sane then we can release you to an orphanage. If you were adopted, maybe they could pay for something to help you. But there is no one here who will pay for bills to help you. The Cancer you have is minor so you could be able to live a long time with help. But you will die if that time comes, but we don't want you here anymore. You have to help us, help yourself. You need to talk to someone." The lady said, as she lead Kagome down the hall, and into another room, one with a bed and such.

"So I will die, because no one would want me. No one would adopt me."

"What the hell are you doing you arrogant bastard...!" A women's voice cried tearing up.

A eight year old Kagome turned her cd player up higher trying to block out the sounds. Trying to sing along so she didn't have to hear what was going on outside anymore. She had her eyes shut tight, and was curled up hugging her knees, hidden in a closet.

'Tempers flaring from parents, just blow 'em off and keep goin.'

(how about that, an Eminem cd for her when she's 8 lol, it wasn't even out back then, but I don't care work, with me here. ~fire&raven)

Still the sound of her father shattering a beer bottle, her mothering sobbing, and the baby crying. Then the baby went silent. Everything did before the women broke down again screaming something along the lines of 'Why did you have to do that you beer bashing bastard!'

Louder sounds also shocked her, like the sound of slaps, numerous curses, sobbing, and death threats.

"Hey let go of me you drunken buffoon." She heard her mother scream followed by another scream).

Then she could hear him dragging her mother upstairs, and into the bedroom.

Shaking her head, she made sure everything was clear besides the fact, that her mother was screaming out in pained protests, but she ignored it. Still with her headphones on, and her cd player in her left hand she slipped out of the closet prowling out to the living room.

Her eyebrow twitched, blood. It puddle from out beside the couch, dripped off the sharp shinning ends of the broken bottle, and left a trail going upstairs.

"No.....Souta....he did didn't he." She hopped here, and there to get up to the couch without leaving any tracks she was there.

Looking over the couch back, she bit her lips to suppress a scream. Shaking her head she slowly backed up, before slipping on another puddle of blood, and landing on her rear end causing an unwanted smash when she hit the ground. She didn't dare move knowing she'd only cause more noise.

'So much for pretending you weren't here.' She flinched when she heard a grunt from upstairs, and the door open.

Her eyes darted around to look for a way to get out, but instead just got up.

"You little- what the hell are you doing here ya little bitch." A large hand snatched her up from the back of her neck sending her staggering backwards still in his grip.

She clenched her teeth trying, but failing to stop herself from saying something she learned years ago. "Bastard hands off!" And knocking him off her.

She could hear him growl before shaking knowing she probably just made the worst mistake of her life, she fled the other side of the couch unaware of the glass shards cutting her feet joining the other.

"WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME?!" He boomed, instead of answering she backed up to the wall.

(Raven: You have to keep in mind she grew up used to this, so even at 8 she's acting older, because she has experience. Get it? -_-)

"I thought so. Now get over hear, and make me the best damn drink possible before I send you to join your brother.

Kagome instantly ran to do his bidding, avoiding that area as much as possible.

"Inu Yasha I am outraged at the way you were so rude to our guest. I demand that you get down here, and give a formal apology." Inu Yasha's mother said impatiently from the foot of the stairs which lead to the 3rd floor.

"Feh, they deserved it." Came his muffled response.

Lady Rumiko sighed, Inu Yasha didn't normally act this rude in front of public, and she was beginning to suspect something was seriously wrong.

"Inu-chan, will you please come here, I don't enjoy speaking through the door. Is something wrong?"

"No just go away, go find some other person to bother." Lady Rumiko shook her head before she realized her husband Lord Tai standing right behind her.

He was frowning, and certainly mad upset about something, which she knew was Inu Yasha's behavior. She put a chance to his chest to stop him from knocking down the door.

"Let him be Tai, I seriously think something's bothering him."

"Then he should tell someone, or stop moping around."

It was the truth, but it hurt too.

"I love Inu Yasha, but sometimes I wish we could have had a girl."

"Perhaps, would you like to have one."

"Nine months of pregnancy is something I'd never want to go through again."

"We could adopt."

"Adopt? I'd never thought of that, are you quite serious."

"Of course."

They spoke in hushed voices as they traveled down the hall.

"Well if it would make you happy, you can go down to the orphanage if you wish."

Lady Rumiko "Maybe I'll do just that."
