Title: Unpredictable

Summary: Higurashi Kagome has lost her family. Now she has to move places and live with the relatives she didn't know she had. Although, fate comes in and twists the story, now she lives in all her lonesome because of an overprotective... brother?

Kagome sighed as she sat on a small hill overlooking a small village, hugging her knees to her chest. She buried her head in her knees, her face not in her usual natural smile; instead, she tried in vain to stop the tears that threatened to fall. She could no longer hold it as tears came down restlessly as if there was no tomorrow.

Soft footsteps padded to her as she swivelled around to look at the intruder, tears still evident in her eyes as she roughly wiped them away when she saw whom it was. She looked back over the village, hair billowing in the wind. Her heart was set in a rapid pace, but she could not help it. It had happened so suddenly that she didn't know what to think. Her mind was a mess, her heart ached.

"Kagome," the voice was soft, different from its usual brashness, "Kagome, what's wrong? You've been acting different ever since you came back."

She looked back at him, tear-stricken brown meeting determined amber. "I…" her lips trembled and she looked away, bangs covering her eyes, but tears were still evident as it ran down her face again, "I don't know when I'll… I'll see you guys again."

"What?" The male asked not understanding.

A hiccup escaped her as she tried to stop the tears, her lips still trembling. "Inuyasha," she said, "M-mum, Grandpa," she hiccupped as she tried in a futile attempt to stop her tears, "S-Souta, they're all dead!" she yelled out, her body shaking.

Inuyasha stared at her in shock, his mind not really processing the message. "Wh-what? How?" he said, the only words that were able to form.

"I don't know," she said weakly as she hugged herself from the invisible cold that seemed to capture her, "It's just, after defeating Naraku and I returned home…They were gone, blood all over the place." Her bangs recovered her eyes as she kept her arms around herself as she unconsciously shivered. "I admit I've seen horrible things since coming here, but when I returned home, that was by far the worst…"

"Kagome…" Inuyasha said not knowing what else to say. He was about to reach up to her and give her a comforting hug when she stood up abruptly. He was shocked by what he saw.

She stood, looking at him with a serious look, the wind blowing her hair as she stared at him. "I will be moving to my only relative left living. She doesn't live anywhere near the well, but, Inuyasha, I will promise to visit in the times I can." Then she gave him a safe, hesitant smile, "But 'til that time comes, I have to say farewell to you, Miroku, Sango and Shippou. You four have always been there and I thank you."

Without anymore words said she gave him a big great hug, tears running down her face, knowing it was most probably might be the last time they got to see each other… But it was only a possibility and life was never predictable…

-U-

Kagome sat in the shinkansen going, as predicted with one riding in a bullet train, smoothly. She looked out the window, buildings passing by. She sighed and rested her head so she could sleep. She was different to how she used to look. Oh, she had brown eyes like before and black hair, but now youkai blood ran through her veins. It wasn't her fault either.

- Flashback -

It was the last face off between her and Naraku. How did she know this? Oh, she had a feeling that this would be her last encounter ever against the vermin called Naraku. A barrier had surrounded her and Naraku, blocking out any other person or demon from interfering with their fight. She could see in her peripheral vision that Inuyasha and the others had finished their fights, along side with Sesshoumaru. She could see her friends yelling, trying and failing to break the barrier.

She glared at Naraku, who, in turn, chuckled evilly. "Looks like it's just you and me," he said tentacles zooming in to get her.

Just in time she jumped out of the way, rolling on the ground as she brought an arrow to her bow and pointed at Naraku. "Naraku!" She yelled, letting go of her arrow, pure energy surrounding the arrow, "You should die!"

The arrow hit some of the tentacles, dispersing with a good part of Naraku. She smirked in triumph, but it soon faltered as soon as she heard his evil chuckle. "You need to do more than that miko to be able to kill me."

Soon, it was more of a battle of wits as the two fought with each other, and Kagome was, slowly, but surely losing her arrows and the battle. Suddenly an idea came to her head and she grimaced. She didn't fail to hear the cry of her friends as a tentacle went through her stomach. Using the last of her strength she brought all her miko powers to her hand and proceeded to put her energy to purify the demon.

Naraku's eyes widened in realisation what she was doing. With a dribble of blood coming out from the corner of her mouth, she looked at Naraku's with defiant eyes. "Die Naraku!" she yelled as she used the last of her powers, making Naraku and the barrier disappear.

She smiled, but fell to the ground, weak in strength and energy. "Kagome!" she faintly heard Inuyasha's voice call out. Warm hands surrounded her, but she felt cold. She gave them all a soft smile. She could see Sesshoumaru holding out Tenseiga and slicing at her to save her life, but it seemed futile as it didn't seem to work against the demon-like sword.

Sesshoumaru stared in horror, as his sword did not work. He guessed it had to be the youkai and miko energies clashing together that it did not let him heal her.

"Inuyasha," Kagome's voice was all ears as they tried in vain to save her from impending death. She smiled softly, "Guys," she shakily held out a hand as she dropped something out into Inuyasha's hand, "Please, take the jewel and take any wish you want. You could bring back Kikyou if you wanted to Inuyasha."

Sesshoumaru glared at his brother if he even considered bringing back the dead priestess, but Inuyasha just shook his head. "No, Kagome, hang in there! Sesshoumaru! Why isn't your sword working!" He asked in panic as he saw her soft smile and her eyes beginning to close.

"Kagome!" Miroku said, trying to keep her awake, "Stay in there."

"C'mon Kagome," Sango said, tears visible in her eyes, "Don't do this to us," she said, "C'mon, stay awake!"

"Yeah okaachan," Shippou said hoping to dear God she'll make it. After all she was like a mother to him, "We'll make sure you live!"

Kirara seemed to be saying at same thing as it yipped and nudged her with its nuzzle.

Kagome just smiled and shook her head, unable to speak as energy started to drain from her body. Suddenly it clicked to Inuyasha and wished upon the jewel, hoping this would work, 'Please jewel, I wish for Kagome to live.'

'Will you be happy if she were any different than before? Would you wish her to live under any circumstances?' a feminine voice filled his head, 'Is this what you truly desire?'

'Yes, damn it! Just save her life!'

'Very well.'

Suddenly a bright light surrounded the almost dead miko. Inuyasha watched with hope as the light soon stopped. The others looked at Kagome with dread, but soon was placed with happy smiles as they saw that Kagome was awake and sitting perfectly fine, if it were not for the tears and rips in her shirt one would say she was never at war, and the only other evidence was the scar that ran down her left arm from Naraku's earlier attacks.

But, she looked different and the group realised she looked different. Markings of a real demon adorned her body of one of the inuyoukai and her nails seemed to be sharper. Fangs protruding from the corners of her mouth, her eyes a fiery amber and her hair still ebony. She looked at them shocked.

- End -

Kagome sighed as she remembered the training she had gone through to hide her identity and energy and to look completely like her old self. During that time though, the murder of her family happened. It was lowly demons that she vanquished out of anger, but her family could not defend themselves. They did not have the necessary equipment to destroy the demons. A stray tear made itself known and she wiped the tear away roughly. It was no time for that. She was going to meet her 2nd distant cousin, aunts and uncles she never knew about.

Soon enough, the shinkansen stopped at her stop and she got off, her luggage dragging behind her. She sighed as she remembered the address was written on a piece of paper. She took it out of her pocket as soon as she was out of the station and looked at the address.

Her nose twitched as a familiar scent made its way to her nose. Her smile grew. He was still alive after all this time… but what was he doing here? She followed the scent towards a limo and she blinked as the silver haired man looked at her with a stoic expression.

Although, unlike before, he now looked about 24 years old, rather than 19, even though she knew he was well over probably over 700 years old.

"Sesshoumaru-nii!" she said, her eyes lighting up at said surrogate older brother. He looked at her, the smallest of smiles going into place. "What are you doing here? And how have you been?"

He nodded to her. "I've been fine Kagome-chan," he said in a soft voice at his surrogate little sister, "Come in," he said opening the door of the limo to get in.

She blinked, before smiling and got in, but not before putting in her suitcase first. Sesshoumaru got in after her and closed the door and motioned the driver to drive. "Kagome," he solemnly, "I heard what happened and heard you were coming here to live with a relative?"

She nodded and smiled sadly. "I don't know these people though. I've never met them."

He nodded. "I figured as much, so I already bought a small house here," he said and she looked at him surprised. He continued on, "I managed to convince the authorities to let you live there, also, I could keep an eye on you and come visit when I'm not busy."

"You shouldn't have," she said in shock. "I would've been fine, really."

He shook his head, being the protective brother he was to her. He wanted her to be where he could see her. "I haven't seen you in 500 years and I intend to keep you where I can keep an eye on you." He said as the limo turned left, "Besides, I already bought a house here and it's rarely used. It would be great if you took my offer."

She smiled gratefully at Sesshoumaru. "Thank you, but I have to tell that to the family then."

Sesshoumaru nodded; glad she took the offer, but not visibly showing it, his usual stoic expression in place. "We're here," he announced as she looked out the window and her eyes widened.

"A small house," she said incredulously, "It's not small at all Sesshou-nii!" In front of her as the door opened she looked at a house before her. Maids opened the door and were busy working about. She could tell by their energies that they were demons. The front had a small fountain; flowers and other rare plants grew into a beautiful garden before here. The red-bricked house had large windows outlined with brown wood and the curtains were in a blood red colour. It was only one floor, but she could see the house was still large by diameter.

"Good, I see you like it," he said as the maids bowed before him, "Take care of her, she is now the mistress of this house." He looked at Kagome, "I have to go now," he rolled his eyes, "There is a meeting that was scheduled today for me and could not be altered. I'll visit you in the weekend. Your new uniform for your new school is in your room. The maids will show you to the room." He nodded and as he was going to go back inside the limo he remembered something, "Oh, and your have directions to your new school there as well." And with that he went back inside the limo and she waved him bye as he left her to the house.

She sighed and smiled, following the maids inside as they led her to her room.

-U-

Kagome double-checked the address in her hands before sucking her breath and knocking on the door. The door opened revealing a man appearing to be around 25 years old. She smiled sweetly at him, not like the aura emitting from him.

"Hm," he said straightening up his glasses, "I believe you must be Higurashi Kagome?"

Kagome nodded. "Yes, but I have something to discuss."

He nodded, noticing she did not have her luggage with her as he led her inside. He had her seated at the table; someone around her age throwing dirty looks. She shifted in her place, but smiled at the old man there, assuming that this was her grandpa from this place.

"Welcome," said the old man with a kind smile, "This is the Honda family, and we're your distant relatives. We would enjoy your company from this day on."

Kagome nodded in acknowledgement, but could help but shift in her seat. "Yes," she said, "Uhm, about that Ojii-san. I'm afraid my friend has bought a house for me to live in not too far from here." She put a piece of paper in front of her onto the small coffee table, "He kept insisting that I live there since he did buy the house and needs to be in use since no one uses it. Here is my address should you feel the need to visit me. It would be great to know I have family around."

He smiled and nodded as the others just watched with a hint of distaste when looking at her. "That is fine. My granddaughter did that as well. She's around your age." He got up, walking to grab a scrap piece of paper and pen and began writing something down. "This is your other cousin, Honda Tohru. I think she'll be happy to meet you."

Kagome smiled. "Why thank you. I may visit her later since I have plenty time to spare, but for now, I have to unpack my stuff." She bowed, "It was a pleasure meeting you." With that short visit, she hurriedly got out the house, not liking this part of the family so far except for the grandpa. He was the only one that seemed nice.

She sighed and pocketed her hands wondering where to walk now. She had already unpacked her stuff… well the maids did. They didn't let her put away her own stuff. They believed that Sesshoumaru would hunt them down if they did.

She looked down at the address in her hands deciding whether or not to visit this cousin of hers. After all, she disliked the people so far aside from the old man. What would make this one any different? …Well, she did move out of the house. She sighed knowing that she indeed wanted to meet this cousin of hers. After all, they were the only family left, even if they did not seem to have some kind of good in them.

She walked, trees being more evident as time passed by and blinked as she accidentally stepped in a garden, damaging one of the plants. She bent down hastily and looked at the strawberries she damaged. "Oh I'm sorry!" Kagome exclaimed. "Here, I'll heal you." She said using her miko powers to help it regrow to what it was before.

As she finished she heard footsteps make its way over to where she was. She stood up and looked at the two people before her. Kagome bowed. "Sorry for intruding," she said, teal eyes meeting her brown ones, "I was on my way over to a house near here and I seemed to have gotten myself lost." She said sheepishly to the two of them, who were shocked that someone was here.

Kagome made a small frown, but it went unnoticed. Kagome felt something in the grey-haired teen before her. Even though he felt human, she also felt a rat-demon inside of him, one that lay dormant unless something triggered it. What triggered it? She had no idea. Now that she felt it. She observed them more.

There was a male and female standing before her. One she felt the demon inside. He had grey hair and, oddly, purple eyes. Looking at him, he looked more feminine than he did male, a very pretty male at that though. He wore a white short-sleeved shirt and black pants with gardening tools in his hands.

Kagome's eyes took in the girl beside the boy, who was clearly just human, but had an innocent aura about her. Her eyes were a teal colour and her hair was light brown. She wore a light summer dress and she looked at Kagome curiously.

"It's okay," the boy said and Kagome couldn't help but think that his voice sounded almost feminine as well, "Tell me where you're headed and I'll give you some directions."

Kagome smiled and nodded in appreciation. For someone possessed by some sort of a demon, he had very polite manners. "Thank you. I'm looking for a girl named Honda Tohru," she said, not yet noticing their shocked expression, "I'm sure she doesn't live too far from here, but I'm not too sure." She looked at them and blinked at their shocked expression. She figured that either the girl here was Tohru or they knew the girl named Tohru.

"May I ask," Yuki said, the girl still not speaking from his side, "Why are you looking for Honda-san?"

Kagome smiled, "So you do know her," she said, "Oh, I'm a distant relative of hers. Her grandpa told me that she lived somewhere around here and I wanted to see what she was like. After all, she is one of the blood family that I have left with me." She smile turned out forced as she said that and memories of how she found her family came back to her.

The girl beside the boy lit up as she smiled at Kagome. "Oh, I'm Tohru," she said bowing enthusiastically, "It's a pleasure to meet you!"

-U-

Kagome stared at the three men before her, feeling that each had some kind of animal demon in them. She looked at the person with orange hair. This boy had a cat-demon, but there was also something more ferocious.

"Konnichiwa," Kagome said, bowing to them, "I'm Higurashi Kagome. I'm quite surprised that my cousin is actually living with a bunch of guys and her grandfather allowed it." She broke into a smile; "You must be really nice people then."

"It's nice to see that my flower has a beautiful cousin," the dog piped up between them in a singsong voice and she could just feel the dark aura surrounding the two teens as the man said that.

Kagome laughed nervously. "Well, uhm, thank you," she said, "But I'd advise that you never say that around any of my… uhm… friends if you were to ever meet them because they're a bit over protective."

"Anyway," Tohru said, "It's the first time I've met you I think. If we're family, why is that?"

Kagome thought. "Hm," she said thinking, "Oh, we might have met on one or two occasions where the whole family got together, but I think its because we lived so far away from each other we didn't have enough expenses to visit daily… and plus I was always sick…"

"Oh…"

"Well," she said writing down her address, "Here, it would be very lonely, seeing as I now live all in my lonesome," she said with a small smile, "It would be great if you guys visited. You can bring friends along too if you wanted."

Tohru nodded with a bright smile, "Sure! We'll visit tomorrow…" then she blinked and flushed in embarrassment and looked at the guys, "That is if it's alright."

They nodded, earning a big smile from the bright girl. Kagome smiled also. This one was the one she liked so far from her blood relatives. "Tomorrow after school though," Kagome said and looked at the guys, "I realised I do not know your names yet," she said, and she bowed to them, "My name, as you probably know, is Higurashi Kagome, but just call me Kagome." She said grinning and waited for them to introduce themselves.

"Oh, sorry for my impoliteness," The grey-haired teen had said, "I'm Sohma Yuki."

"Hn, Sohma Kyou," the boy with orange hair and cat-demon within him. To Kagome, he seemed aggravated about something… She glanced at Yuki… Perhaps it was a cat and mouse thing.

"Oh, and I am the handsome owner of the house," the dog said cheerfully, "Sohma Shigure!" Kagome blinked at his… enthusiasm. The dogs she had met so far were either brash or stoic. And this came from two demon half brothers.

She smiled. This was certainly going to be interesting. "It's a pleasure to meet you all."
