Kagome bit her lip as she turned into the parking lot of the jewelry store. She wished she didn’t have to do this but well she needed the money. She was 18 and in college she needed the money to help pay for her school books. She looked down at the beautiful platinum band with a princess cut ocean blue sapphire in the middle which was set in place by two crescent moons. She held her breath as she stared at the most beautiful thing she had ever owned in her life. She felt like crying she needed the money but she also needed to let the past go. She bit her lip as she parked her midnight blue 1968 Pontiac firebird next to the front of the jewelers.

She walked in the door and huffed as there was a line of at least five people. She saw a flash of white hair and dog ears and smiled as a tinge of pain went through her heart. She walked up to the guy who was looking at pain ball guns. She tapped him on the shoulder and smiled brightly when he turned around a bit of shock in his eyes.

“kagome? What are you doing here?” he asked as he hesitantly smiled at her. She smiled hesitantly back as she put her hands behind her back sliding the ring off her finger and into her back jean pocket.

“ hey inuyasha! just pawning some old jewelry, I have a few new courses and need more books.” she smiled at him looking him over. he had the same style he did in high school, he wore a plain white t with an unzipped red jacket and loose baggy jeans his short white hair messy and amber eyes bright as ever….those amber eyes sent sparks through her body in a certain familiarity. “how have you been?” she asked knowing he was normally up to no good and always into some kind of trouble. Man she should have taken a clue long ago.

“Im great. Just great you?” he answered glancing around quickly. She squinted at him wondering what was going on but she dismissed it and took a few steps as the line moved one. “im ok just trying to make it and finish school” she said smiling lightly, she brushed a strand of her ebony chest length hair behind her ear exposing two silver hoops. “so what are you doing here?” she decided to ask since it wasn’t as if he needed money. He looked at her nervously then the gold watch that was on his wrist. “I uh..um I was just looking at rings that might be nice for Kikyo’s anniversary gift.” he said not sounding too convincing since she just caught him looking at paint ball guns and not rings. She decided not to push it since she was almost at the front. She felt nervous hoping he would leave so he didn’t see what she was really going to pawn. She bit her lip lightly and tapped her foot which was clad in colorful fuzzy boots. She straightened her pink tank top fiddling with the fabric trying to ignore his presence. Her white zip up jacket seemed thin as she felt cold.

She audibly sighed when she saw it was her turn she waved by to inuyasha.

“good day miss how can I be of service to you?” asked a jeweler at the booth. He looked to be yet another inu half demon. Except his hair was black and had black ears as well. Her small hand slid into her back pocket as she looked over her shoulder. She noticed inuyasha staring at the clock and she sighed. She couldn’t do it. She looked at the jeweler and apologized for wasting his time. She couldn’t part with it, not since she felt like a piece of him was in the same building. Even if the weren’t together she would always love him. She slid her engagement ring back into her pocket. She just had a feeling something weird would happen. Her relationship hadn’t ended well with inuyasha half brother. She had caught him one night with another girl or demoness. She remembered walking in the door of the apartment they had shared since he had proposed to her. She remembered the feel of the plastic bag full of Chinese take out she had brought home in apology for coming home so late. She remembered hearing the tv as she walked around the corner looking up and seeing a blonde haired neko youkai straddling her fiance on their love seat they had purchased a day before. She also remembered the ache in her heart as she watched him stare at her knowing he was caught.

She winced as she felt a throbbing sensation in the chest as the pain flooded through her with the memories. She was so shocked she had just stood there with her mouth hanging open as the blonde struggled to cover up with HER comforter her mother made for her. She sighed as she remembered how Sesshoumaru stood swiftly his clothing mussed and shirt opened. She remembered how he told her it wasn’t what it looked like and how much he loved her and wouldn’t do anything to hurt her. She remembered all this as she walked away from the counter and towards the door. She heard the jingle of the door signaling someone had entered before she could exit. A man with with stone washe jeans black boots walked in. she only saw that before she heard a loud boom ring out. She ducked out of istinct covering her ears from the sound in the small space.

“this is a hold up! I want everyone besides the clerks on the floor now!” a loud stone voice ordered loudly. She quickly kneeled on the floor still looking down suddenly in fear. She heard a a child crying and looked to her right seeing a small boy about 6 crying against his mother who was also on the ground shielding him. She looked around noting that besides the boy and his mother there were 2 others besides her self and the clerks. Inuyasha was kneeled looking intently at the gunman, she was surprised she saw no fear. Then there was a guy about in his 50’s kneeled by the watch counters.

“get up” she heard the stone voice say. Feeling a tingle in her mind she could have swore she knew that voice. She finaly looked at the gunman seeing he was also wearing a black jacket that was zipped up and hooded. She couldn’t identify him from the back but knew that she shouldn’t want to see the front seeing a 9mm uzi in his left hand. She looked at inuyasha as he stood. She watched him as he bent to pull a large black pillow case from his backpack she hadn’t noticed by his feet. Her eyebrows squished together and eyes widened as she realized he was in on it. He pulled a chrome desert eagle out of the sack and pointed it directly at the clerks. She couldn’t hold the small cry of shock that left her throat.

That is when the first gunman looked her way. He had a black ski mask on but she felt a pang when she noted the golden eyes. She immediately knew who it was. But why? The eyes locked on hers and she felt confused and shocked. He turned back around and demanded that inuyasha hurry.

“YOU HEARD HIM PUT THE CASH IN THE SACK. NOW!” inuyasha demanded pointing the gun in the clerks face. She was shocked and utterly terrified not only could this not be happening to her….but also why would they do this? She heard a loud sound of glass shattering then crunching. She saw Sesshoumaru walk to a precious stone case and put handfuls of diamonds, sapphires, rubies, and emeralds into the sack.

“right, done lets get out of here” she felt guilty just by knowing the assaulters. She saw them back out towards the door. They were leaving backwards. She saw a black boot b her hand and gasped. As a clawed hand wrapped around her wrist and jerked her up.

“no one calls the authorities untill after we leave or else we will shoot the girl” Sesshoumaru snarled out pulling her roughly against his chest, she panicked and struggles slightly untill the uzi was roughly pressed against her cheek. She immediately ceased her struggles going wide eyed at the danger she was in.

She heard the door jingle as she was shoved through it. She was roughly pulled to a silver bmw and shoved inside the back as inuyasha got in the front and restrained her by keeping his gun pointed at her. He looked at Sesshoumaru, “what are we doing?” obviously not knowing what had possessed him to take her hostage. She was hyperventilating in the back seat silent tears rolling down her cheeks as Sesshoumaru revved the engine and peeled out. She felt helpless as she heard sirens in the distance. All the while thinking what the hell is going on?.

A/N: um this was hard for me to get out, so idk if I will continue this. It might be messy but I didn’t want to clean it up if no one liked it. So if you think I should continue id love opinions.
