Will It Be Too Late by Lady Beloved

Package

Summary: Kagome is planning on committing suicide. Sesshomaru is one of the reasons. She leaves a package in his school locker, hoping that when he finally finds out her problems and plans, it will all be too late.

DISCLAIMER: I do not own Inuyasha or any of the characters nor did I create any of it, all of that belongs to the one and only RUMIKO TAKAHASHI. The book, "Thirteen Reasons Why," by Jay Asher, inspired me to write this particular fanfic, so the plot of this story goes all towards him.

Chapter 1:

The sun was rising, awakening Kagome from her sleep. It was 6:00 a.m. and time for her to get ready for school in the morning, which she was not planning on, but in order for her to place something in Sesshomaru's locker; she has no choice in the matter.

Reluctantly, she arose from her bed wearing a plain t-shirt and shorts. Her attitude towards the day was to go to school and let the damage be done to her, for the last time while giving Sesshomaru his little 'present'.

Kagome is not the most popular person in high school. She was even lower than the geeks that resided their also. In everyone eyes, she was nothing but the dirt under their shoes. The teachers even wanted nothing to do with her, so Kagome's attitude was 'why should she go to school when no one wanted me around.' Her father passed away when she was only five years old, and she only lives with her mother as well as little brother. Kagome used to come home with nothing but bruises and scratches, others afflicted upon her at school. Her mom is a drunk and her younger brother, Souta, is oblivious to everything. The only people who were by her side were her gramps and Sesshomaru. Her grandpa died of a heart attack just last year leaving her alone, while Sesshomaru decided to ignore her now since he became popular. Kagome and Sesshomaru used to be great friends when they were younglings, but that had changed when they once reached high school. It is now Kagome's and Sesshomaru's senior year in high school.

It is now time for Kagome to leave for school, so she drags herself towards her destination. She was already late, so it really didn't matter and she can escape from becoming bruised up for the day. Her only obstacle was to leave a package within her used to be best friend, without being seen, and then leave for home. A home to a drunken mother, and an oblivious little brother.

Approaching school, she walks within the double doors where the halls were quiet and cleared of all teenagers. Walking slowly to said locker, she unlocks it and quickly places her package within it. Sesshomaru had the same locker combination since his freshmen year, and only he and Kagome knew the numbers to it. When he became popular, he quickly forgot that Kagome still possessed the code to his repository.

Closing the locker door and locking it back up, she leaves and returns home.

School has just ended and Sesshomaru goes to his locker. As he opens it, he sees a brown package with a folded note 'Sesshomaru' written on it. Taking said note, he reveals the letter and slowly read it.

Dear Sesshomaru,

I know we have not been friends since sophomore year of high school, but within this package you will find clues to why I will no longer be here anymore. Even though you have neglected me, for some time, do this last wish for me. I will like for someone to know what has become of me when the time comes. Please do not try to find me until you have listened to everything that resides within this parcel. Goodbye.

Love always,

Kagome

Shocked by what he has read, he opens the package and sees that there are thirteen tapes in his possession. Closing it, he slips it into his backpack and heads off to home. 'What does she have planned?' Sesshomaru thought.

A/N: I know this was very short, but I am sure the next chapters will be longer. Thank you for taking the time to read the story, and I hope that you will continue to read it until the very last chapter. If there is anything you wish to comment, then feel free to do so. ( ^ . ^ )
