Chapter 1

Jessica Laurance a happy sixteen year old girl was calmly walking home from a friends house on September seventh 2003. She had went over after school and didn't realize what time it was before she knew it she had to leave. She had decided against the offer to spend the night as she didn't bring any clothes.

As she was walking home she decided to walk through the alley as it was a shortcut to her home. She was walking when she heard a strange noise. It sounded like someone was calling for help. She stopped walking and listened. "Help." She heard a strangled whisper being the nice girl she was she decided to investigate. She pulled her cellphone out and dialed 911, but she didn't press talk.

She kept it out ready to push the call button within a moments notice. She looked around the alley and then started pulling out her keys. She got the small portable flashlight her mother had gotten for her and shined it on some trash cans. Suddenly she heard movement and she saw some boxes in a corner move.

Jessica walked over to them and moved the boxes aside with her foot seeing as how both her hands were occupied. She gasped when she saw a young brunette woman and a baby girl struggling for breath. "OH MY GOD! Are you okay?" Jessica asked. The woman just shook her head and offered Jessica her baby.

"Don't worry I'll call 911." Jessica told her. The woman knew she was about to die so she told her in a struggled whisper. "Please take care of my Kagome.." The woman told her then she pressed her hands on the baby now known as Kagome and her hands glowed a bright pink and she died. Jessica quickly called the cops and requested an ambulance.

Later that night, when Jessica was finally allowed to go home she took Kagome up to her room and put her to bed. When she had done that she sat on the bed wondering how her life was going to change. She had learned Kagome's mother's name was Kira and she had died in a drug deal.

She also learned that Kagome's mother was a miko which ment Kagome was too. Her parents had agreed she could keep the baby. At first they said no, but as soon as Jessica brought her in they fell in love with her even her brother Souta.

Jessica found out that Kagome was from Japan which was a long way away considering they lived in Los Angelas. As Jessica thought over the days events she started to get sleepy. I mean she went from a happy teenager with the best Reputation to a happy Teenege mom. '

As she drifted off to sleep she had a small smile on her face. She had a feeling these next few years were going to be the best of her life. Sadly she didn't know how wrong she was.

*****With Jessica's Mom and Dad*****

"Ken we have to do something! And I mean soon!" Ken's wife Amaya exclaimed. "I know Amaya I wanted to say no too, but It's just like the prophecy said we'd fall in love with the little girl." Ken reasoned with his wife.

"You said if we left Japan Kira wouldn't find us and Jessica would be free to live her life!" Amaya yelled. "I know what I said, but you saw her Jessica won't give up this baby." He told her.

"Then what are we going to do? The prophecy said if Jessica accepted the child then she will be murdered. I want to take the child and save my daughter, but I love this baby already!" Amaya was so confused on what to do for her little girl.

"I know, but you wouldn't be helping Jessica. You'd be killing her." Ken told her quietly. "Oh Ken!" Amaya ran into Ken's arms and buried her head in his chest and cried her heart out. When she was finally able to calm down enough to speak she asked him "What are we going to do?" Ken pulled her face up to his gently and softly kissed her.

When they pulled apart the went back to their original places. With his head buried in Amaya's hair he spoke "I don't know Maya. I just don't know." He sighed softly and pulled back to look at her "Let's go to bed. You need your rest." He told her.

He let go of her and grabbed her hand. He led her up the stairs to their room. As he lay in bed and thought of the day he'd never imagine how hard their life would really get.

*****Somewhere in Japan*****

A guard walked into the barely lighted room and bowed respectfully. "Master, the miko Kira your top assassin's whereabouts are still unknown." "Hm. And what of her three month old child?" "Also unknown.. Sir." The guard bowed his head. "What!" The master shouted enraged.

The guard cringed in fear. "Master please!" "No! I don't like disappointment Kazu. And what happens to those who disappoint me?" The guard Kazu's voice trembled as he spoke. "Death. D- Death c- comes to those that d- d- disappoint you ma- master." "Right Mono!" The master shouted. A sturdy heavy built man with markings and chilly blue eyes stepped forwards from the shadows.

"Yes master Naraku?" By now the poor guard was trembling in terror "Take mister Kazu to the execution chambers." "NO!" Kazu shouted! "Please master reconsider!" Kazu begged on his hands and nees.

The guard Mono stepped forward and bowed before speaking. "Master Naraku I mean no disrespect, but I strongly believe you should reconsider. Kazu is one of are best if you keep killing experienced assassins we will have none to train the beginner-

"Silence! I will hear no more of this. Kazu has disappointed far to much. There are always others to train the beginners." Naraku grinned and stood back. "Proceed to the execution chamber and bring everyone to witness the death of Kazu!"

Naraku grinned maliciously and headed to the correct chambers.
*****At the Execution Chambers*****

Kazu was put in the executioner. Naraku came forward and held a sword in hand. "Let you all be witness to the execution of Kazu. Now all will know what happens to those that disappoint me!" Naraku exclaimed looking out at the vast see of people there to witness the execution.

Naraku lifted the sword above his head gave a war cry and brought his sword through Kazu's neck. The crowd witnessed the head fall to the floor and erupted in cheers.

As Naraku watched his people he thought to himself 'My dear Kagome when you are returned to me I shall train you to be my best assassin and later my bride.' He grinned evilly and left the site heading towards hi chambers with one thought on his mind. 'Soon you'll be mine Kagome.'
