CHAPTER ONE

I'm not a Morning Person

Inuyasha Osuwari rolled over slightly as he pulled his comforter up over his head, shielding himself from the 'stupid lamp' his older brother had turned on.

"Get up Inuyasha you will be late." The twenty-one year old Sesshomaru Osuwari ordered coldly, as he looked down at his half-wit brother with an emotionless face. His red eyes glaring ruthlessly.

"Damn it five more minutes." Inuyasha groaned

Sesshomaru shook his head no, "Up Inuyasha now!" He demanded receiving nothing but a crude gesture from Inuyasha's middle finger. Sesshomaru rolled his eyes. "Fine have it your way little brother." And with that, the tall graceful albino flipped his long white hair over his shoulder before he gracefully walked down the steps and into the kitchen to get some of the breakfast his aunt was cooking, leaving Inuyasha to his stubborn self.

Inuyasha grinned happily in his victory as he closed his eyes and embraced sleep openly once again. Inuyasha was your average, lazy, devil-may-care; every girl loves him, bad-boy, punk…sixteen-year-old boy. Inuyasha was unfortunately a heart breaker surprise…surprise.

Inuyasha had long waist length silky black hair and amazing amber eyes that just seemed to melt the hearts of every girl in his path. Feh. He was about average height and built, but he was amazingly strong and fast for his age and size, you could say he was a good fighter. He could definitely stick up for himself if that's what you're asking. But of course as any good fighter has, Inuyasha had an ego the size of the equator. But he did have a sweet side hidden behind, that stubborn head of his…

Inuyasha rolled over on his stomach, letting out a deep sigh, as he flew back towards Never Never Land once again until-CRACK!

Inuyasha felt something-hard land repeatedly on his back. Surely breaking a few ribs with each harsh landing. He groggily glanced over his shoulder to see his little six year old sister, Rin; riding his spine like a 'horsy'; which was pretty bad considering he had a water bed. Inuyasha groaned heavily, "Alright…I'm up."

Rin Jumped off of Inuyasha and stood at the foot of his bed smiling genuinely up at him. Her dark brown eyes sparkling in awe of her older sibling. Inuyasha smiled back at her…he couldn't help but have a soft spot for the little brat, especially since she put up with Sesshomaru so much. Honestly how she did it no one will ever know. Everywhere Sesshomaru went, everything Sesshomaru did, Rin was right there behind him in his wake or as his shadow. She adored Sesshomaru like a god, though personally, why anyone would willingly follow that stiff around was beyond Inuyasha.

"I take it Aunt Misao sent you up here to be my alarm clock, huh?"

Rin giggled and nodded her head, her cheeks turning bright red from her excitement. Poor kid. She couldn't answer Inuyasha, Rin hadn't said a word in four years- not one sound since their parents had died in a car crash four years ago, back when Rin was just peaking the terrible twos. But that didn't seem to stop her, she was a normal annoying, little sister; Inuyasha loved her, and even though Sesshomaru acted like he thought she was just a waste of space, you could tell that deep down he adored the kid more than she adored him.

After their parents had died the three siblings had stayed in the same house that they had grown up in, living right next door to their aunt and uncle, and their cousin Kouga. Their Aunt Misao pretty much took care of them, buying the groceries, doing the cooking, and the cleaning, pretty much everything Inuyasha's mother used to do. And since the house and everything was taken care of, and with all the insurance they had collected, they really weren't that much of a burden to their god parents, well at least they tried not to be!

"Hey Rin you 'wanna' do me a favor." Inuyasha asked as he slowly whipped the sandman's leftovers out of his eyes.

The small girl wrung her hands together and shook her head yes excitedly from receiving a grown-up task.

"Can you pick me out something to wear?" Then with an evilly filled lazy grin Inuyasha added: "you always pick out something that's just right." And with that Inuyasha stumbled off down the hall to the bathroom, leaving Rin with the task that he was too lazy and tired to do.

Rin began fussing through the mile high piles of cloths on the closet floor and behind the bed looking for something that caught her little eye.

After Inuyasha had brushed his teeth, washed his face, and raked through his hair recklessly with his fingers he returned to his room to find little Rin's selection left out on his messy bed. A black T-shirt with the words 'I can't help but get the feeling that one day I will be describing you to my physiatrist', a pair of black denim jeans with a chain hanging from the side, and a pair of black Van's skater shoes. Inuyasha couldn't help but laugh to himself when he noticed that she had even picked out a pair of black and blue flamed boxers for him.

Inuyasha quickly got dressed and ran down the large staircase. He inhaled the smell of his Aunt Misao's home cooking…the best chief in all the land. He could smell bacon and eggs and pancakes-oh my. "YES…there is a God!" Inuyasha exclaimed as he took a stool at the bar beside Sesshomaru, and engulfed a large stack of pancakes in one mouthful and hastily began to ram beacon strip after beacon strip in his mouth like there was no tomorrow.

The college bound Sesshomaru just rolled his eyes; "honestly I would have thought that you would have ended up with better manners dear brother."

"Stuff it Sesshomaru."

Their aunt just sighed and shook her head in disappointment, "honestly boys can the two of you ever get along." She flipped a pancake in its pan and handed another twenty-four stack to an awaiting Inuyasha. The forty-one year old Misao Sumi smiled to herself as she watched her nephew chow down his breakfast. She had to admit that both her godsons were rather…a challenge. But she loved them both, especially the younger one. Inuyasha had such a unique personality. She flipped her low ponytail over her shoulder as she turned her attention towards the little Rin, who was trying her best to get Sesshomaru's attention with a drawing she had done of him. If only he would act like he appreciated her.

"I doubt they'll ever get along mom." Kouga sneered from the stool on the other side of Inuyasha, poking his fork in his cousin's face for affect.

Inuyasha growled angrily at Kouga, still unable to speak from his packed jaws.

"Are you about ready to go yet Inuyasha?" Kouga sighed, "I have to meet my girlfriend you know."

Inuyasha nodded and then quickly put his large mountain of dirty dishes in the sink, gave his aunt a kiss on the cheek, gave Rin a wink, and took off after Kouga towards the back door.

Sesshomaru just shook his head in despair, "Please try and remember to keep your dignity intact today little brother."

Inuyasha turned around, running backwards out the door and quickly flashed his older brother a double bird before turning back around and headed towards Kouga's parked pick-up truck in the garage.

Inuyasha jumped into Kouga's truck through the window like a race car driver as Kouga reared up the engine with a bang and headed off towards the high school.

~*~*~*~

Kagome moaned from under her covers as she heard her alarm clock suddenly begin to blare angrily at her. "Stupid machine!!" she fumed as she dug her face deeper into her black plush pillow, hoping to drown out the annoying buzz. Nothing doing. "Damn thing!" she growled to herself before she blindly swung it across the room, putting the demon possessed noise to silence.

Ah bliss. And with that Kagome Hirugashi, was free to return to Never Never Land. To be perfectly honest Kagome wasn't your average sixteen-year-old. She was pretty don't get me wrong…she had pretty features, a nice shaped body, long silky black hair, soft pale even skin, beautiful deep grayish-blue eyes, and a sweet smile; one problem…everything was hidden behind BLACK.

Kagome was a punk…and a punk not to be reckoned with, she had a bad reputation and she wasn't to be messed with- but it wasn't her fault, about three years ago a couple of false rumors were spread around her school, completely destroying Kagome. For awhile she had done all she could to fight them, trying to stop them as best as she could, but it just made things worse, so in the end she just gave in…and accepted the bad-girl-stay-away image. But for some odd reason…she actually liked it that way. She knew who her real friends were, and she was never picked on-well sometimes she was, but only by the really stupid people, everyone was too afraid of ending up on the bottom of a river tied to a rock, than to mess with her or any of her friends. Which was just the way she liked it.

"Kagome Hirugashi are YOU still in bed?" Kagome's mother growled as she made her way up the stairs and into Kagome's room. Mrs. Hirugashi rolled her eyes and flicked on the light causing Kagome to stir groggily under her comforter. Mrs. Hirugashi giggled to herself as she ripped the sheets off of her teenager. "Come on sweetie, UP UP UP, your sister Kikyo has already left for school. Come on we want an early start for our first day of school don't we?"

Kagome groaned and just rolled over causing her black cami-pajamas to wrinkle even more. "Screw school…I'm not going to school."

Mrs. Hirugashi sighed, "Come on Honey, please I don't want you to have a bad start. And besides…while you were babysitting your little brother Souta yesterday, your sister and I went out and bought you this cute little pink sundress for you to wear. See sweetie isn't it just darling." She held out the dress for her daughter to see.

Figures. That sounded like something Kikyo would do. Kikyo was Kagome's twin sister, but they really didn't consider each other as family…more like mortal enemies. Kikyo was your typical preppy girl and mama's favorite, she was cold and mean to almost everyone she had ever encountered. She was rude and cruel and was never afraid to admit it; she was not to be taken lightly. Not to mention the fact that if anything, other than her hair, was black and came into contact with her it was to have a prayer said over it and burned immediately, or God forbid. But luckily Kagome's eight-year-old little brother Souta didn't turn out that way, he was actually pretty cool, once you got passed the whole video game freak.

Kagome sighed in defeat as she slowly sat up and whipped the sleep out of her eyes. Her mother lowered the sundress closer to her, waiting for her daughter's approval. Kagome looked at the dress in fear…the horror…the horror. Kagome glanced up at her mother sheepishly, giving her the best puppy-dog face she could muster. Mrs. Hirugashi just sighed, " Kagome, are you sure you don't want to wear just a little bit of color for your first day of school?"

Kagome shook her head no, with a hell-no expression on her face, her mother sighed and nodded in defeat, "Alright I guess I can give it to your sister, I'm sure she'll like it…it's lucky you two wear the same size." She added that last part mostly to herself.

Kagome smiled as she stood up and staggered out of her bedroom, down the hall and into HER personal bathroom. Kagome loved her bathroom; she and her father had designed it themselves before he passed away three years ago. It was a dark bathroom; the tiles were black, matching the sink, tub, and commode. The walls were painted gray in a special stone pattern to make it look like a dungeon, and it had a black border around the top and bottom with the outline of dancing bats. The rug was made to look like a pile of skeletons, and her shower curtain, which had been the hardest to find, had a bunch of teenage zombies in the middle of a limbo contest. But the one thing that was Kagome's favorite, that stuck out the most was her coffin shaped medicine cabinet…her father had made it himself as a Christmas present for her. See her bathroom was the essence of her personality. Not to mention the fact that her sister and brother where band from going in there, it was Kagome's and Kagome's alone. Sometimes when she felt like being by herself she would go into her 'dungeon' and lock the door, staying in there for hours at a time.

After she had brushed her teeth, washed her face, and combed her hair, pulling it back into a tight ponytail, Kagome went to the makeup…a very stressful process for most girls, but for our heroine a two second job, considering she hardly wore any makeup at all. As strange as it sounds Kagome actually preferred a natural face. Instead of black lipstick…incomes clear lipgloss.

Mrs. Hirugashi walked by Kagome's bathroom and peeked in. A smile spread across her face as she observed her daughter at 'work' she sighed to herself, things could be worse, she could have tattoos.

Kagome finished, and then took off to her room, quickly rummaging through the piles of cloths on her floor for anything clean. Finally settling on a black System-of-a-down band T-shirt, a pair of tight black denim jeans, and her favorite pair of worn black converse shoes. Obviously nothing special. Kagome smiled in approval as she looked at herself in the mirror, while she carefully began to put three earrings in each ear, leaving two holes empty in her left and one in her right.

Kagome quickly grabbed one of her chokers that looked like a dog collar from her stained dresser, a couple dozen of her black rubber bracelets and her favorite crossbone ring. She slowly slid the ring up-over her black finger nail, and was out the front door and headed down the street towards the high school before her mother could stop her.
