Chapter 1

*I do not own Inuyasha or it's characters. Nor do I profit from making this*

...

"Hey there beautiful," the boy commented. "Why don't you come hang out with us?"

His two friends smiled encouragingly at the young female.

The girl smiled sweetly."No thanks."

"Come on honey, it'll be fun," he promised.

The girl tried again to brush them off sweetly but her voice started to crack with her ever growing fear. "I-I'm waiting for someone."

"But it's not safe to be here alone. Let us take care of you," he leaned in real close and reached up to touch her face. The girl pressed back against the cement wall and closed her eyes.

With a surprised outburst the guy was suddenly on the ground holding his jaw.

"What the hell?!" He yelled.

A taller high school girl with her black hair in a bun stood before him now.

The mystery girl turned to the frightened middle schooler with a gentle smile. "From now on please wait on the school steps, ok? You never know what kind of people are around."

As a reply the young girl nodded vigorously.

"Good. Now I think I see your mom walking this way so go ahead and meet her. Keep this our little secret ok?"

Again the girl nodded and ran off in the direction of her mother.

"Hey!" The black haired girl was slammed against the wall. "I guess you wanted to play with us instead huh?" He smirked in a way that was supposed to scare her.

She started to give a muffled laugh.

While he was confused with her reaction she brought up her knee into his stomache.

"Ha! Give me a break asshole!" She yelled and glared down at the guy with an amused smile and crossed arms. "What kind of creeps try to pick up a girl in front of a middle school. You guys look old enough to be college drop outs."

The guy let go of his stomache and struggled to his feet. "Why you little..."

He threw a punch at her and she swiftly bobbed her head to the side and brought up her foot to side kick him in the ribs.

The guy fell back onto the ground gasping in pain now holding his side.

She looked down at him with a icy glare.

"Don't fuck with me. I haven't seen the color of blood in awhile and I kinda miss it," she threatened menacingly. She kneeled down and grabbed the guy by the front of his shirt. "If I ever see you or your buddies around this area ever again you'll be sorry."

"What shit are you spewing? You can't do that." One spoke up.

She released the guy and pulled up her shirt enough to reveal her side.

They saw her tattoo and the Japanese lettering that spelled the name Higuarashi.

"T-that's-"

"This territory belongs to the Higuarashi's," she summarized putting down her shirt and standing straight up.

His friends scrambled to help their companion up and left; yelling back some harsh insults to protect their pride.

The girl huffed and jogged to the middle school entrance gates. She was going to be late again thanks to those idiots.

"Hey sis," her brother greeted her as she reached the gates.

"Hey Souta." She smiled and slowed down into a walk along side one another away from the school.

"Kagome you know you don't have to pick me up from school everyday," her little brother stated. "I'm not a kid anymore."

"I know, I know," she rolled her eyes. "You got confessed to by a girl and all the sudden your an adult," she said sarcastically.

Souta gaped at her. "How'd you know about that? It just happened today!"

"As your older sister I know everything," Kagome said matter of factly. "Not to mention...there was a pink envelope with your name on it sticking out of your bag." She waved around the envelope she'd snatched from the bag slung over his shoulder.

Souta quickly snatched it from her and shoved it in his pocket. "Well your just jealous I got confessed too and you're still a high schooler who still hasn't had a boyfriend," he snickered.

Her eyebrow twitched and she clenched her fist in front of her. "Why you little brat..." She grabbed his cheeks and stretched them outwards.

Souta pushed her away and rubbed his cheeks. "Guys don't like violent girls."

"Talk to me when your voice gets deeper," she retorted.

Kagome's shoulder suddenly bumped into someone. She turned her head to apologize. "Sorry."

Her eyes widened at the icy glare she received from the tall male. His sharp eyes seemed to pierce her and put her whole body on edge. The glare probably only lasted a few seconds but it felt like a whole hour for Kagome.

What the hell...Kagome thought. She wasn't one to be intimidated easily but that stranger...

"Hey Kagome! Are you listening?" souta called.

She snapped out of it not realizing she had stopped walking. "Sorry I got distracted."

"Guys don't like airheaded girls either," Souta proclaimed.

The two continued their way home in bickering argument. When they finally entered the gates to their house they were automatically greeted by bowing males on either side of them.

"Welcome home Lady Kagome and Young Master Souta!"

"I thought I've told you guys to stop greeting us like this," Kagome spoke. "And to stop calling me Lady Kagome."

"We apologize for disobeying your orders Lady Kagome. How would you like to punish us?" The groups mediator spoke, he was a tal, bald, hefty man.

"What? I'm not going to punish you."

"Of course Lady Kagome. We can't expect you to deal with low lives like us. We'll punish ourselves."

Kagome face palmed in disbelief. "No I meant...forget it. Just continue to greet us that way," she conceited.

"Yes Lady Kagome!" They all said in unison.

The things she had to deal with sometimes...Kagome thought.

She followed Souta inside the house. "We're home," she yelled into the house.

their was a glint of metal before Kagome dropped into a crouching position. She got up and yanked the kitchen knife out of the wall.

"What the hell dad?!" she yelled at the older male. He sat in a chair at the table in the living room reading a newspaper like nothing had happened. Her father had a very stone like face with his sturdy hard features. With the scruff around his jaw from not shaving he looked even more sketchy to Kagome.

"You should always be on guard," their father answered seriously. "These are important things you need to know Souta for when you take over the business. My boy taking over the family business!" Her father seemed to get teary eyed as he started day dreaming about Souta taking over.

Was this really the all mighty yakuza leader who had single handedly blackmailed the Japanese government into giving the Higuarashi group government clearance?

Kagome clenched her teeth and threw the knife back at the older male. He didn't even flinch when it struck right by his throat into the dining chair.

"I see your aim his improved greatly Kagome," he commented with a smile.

She walked over and slammed her hand down on the table. "Cut the crap old man! Stop filling Souta's head with unnecessary things!"

Her father slammed his fist into the table and stood to glare at his daughter. "Ungrateful daughter of mine. Learn to respect your elders."

They were in a stale mate glare and neither one of them was willing to move.

Souta grimaced at the too and sighed. "Mom! They're at it again!" he called into the house.

"Really you two? Do you need to fight everyday?" Kagome's mother walked into the living room holding a plate with cookies.

She still looked young even though she was getting into her forties. Her short black hair was still its deep rich color like Kagome's. Nobody ever believed a housewife like her could be married to such a dangerous person like Kagome's father.

"Your daughter needs to learn her place," the male spoke.

"I'm taking over the family business not Souta, Kagome stated for the millionth time.

Mrs. Higuarashi sighed and looked at Souta. "What started all of this?"

"Probably when dad threw a knife at Kagome when we came inside," Souta answered his mother earnestly, knowing better then to lie.

"What." The plate snapped in half and the cookies fell to the floor.

That is, no one could believe it...until they saw Mrs. Higuarashi's temper.

"Now your in for it old man," Kagome snickered and walked over to Souta to watch the show.

"You did what to our little girl, dear?" She strained the last part. Her mouth twitched as her smile began to falter.

"We need to train them to protect themselves-" He dodged the half of the plate that his wife threw at him.

"Yes, from other people!" She threw the other half at him like a ninja star.

Again Mr. higuarashi dodged but was caught off guard and the chair she had thrown hit him in the back.

suddenly Mrs. Higuarashi gasped. "Oh dear! Looks like I let my temper slip a little. Oh darn. The cookies are ruined too."

To Kagome and Souta this was normal but they still couldn't believe how scary their mom could be.

...

Kagome but away the last dish she had washed from the night's dinner.

"Kagome," her father called from the table where he still sat.

"Yeah dad?" she answered.

"Come with me. We need to talk," he ordered.

Kagome diligently followed him even though she already knew where they were going. They entered an empty room with a few large floor tables and cushions for seats. This was the meeting room for the group to discuss business. At the front was a shrine with the generations of Higuarashi males who sat in the same spot Kagome's father now took his seat in. Kagome kneeled down onto a pillow in front of him as it was custom to do so.

"Kagome, do you truly wish to take your brother's place as the head of this family?" His tone was deadly serious and Kagome realized what they were about to discuss was no laughing matter.

"Yes father," she replied in the same tone. "I do."

"As a female it is very challenging for outsiders, rival gangs, and gang partners to take you seriously. The only way that you could lead is if you were to take on a powerful husband."

Kagome's eyes widened at the statement but she remained put and tried to stay calm.

"Our rival gang the Taisho family has become greatly suspicious of our contract of being trustworthy. I'm afraid that a very deadly war will break out between the families."

"But we've always had a good relationship with them," Kagome interrupted. "How can they find us dishonest?"

"People will always have doubts Kagome. As a treaty to stop it their leader, Toga, and I both agreed that joining the families would be a good idea. Toga has a son one year older than you."

She processed all the data. "So if I wish to take over the family I will have to be married to this stranger." Her voice was mono-tone and she couldn't look her father in the eye.

"For the time being he will be coming to stay with us starting tomorrow for one month. If you are willing to show me that you are so dedicated to becoming this groups leader by not sabotaging this plan then I will work harder to find another solution. Do you understand?" He asked her.

Kagome nodded and looked her father in the eye. "Yes, I will try my best. May I be excused now?"

"Yes."

Kagome got up and made her way to the door. Once she was outside the room she slammed her fist into the wall and started to hyper ventilate.

To have to marry a complete stranger. She would never get the chance to fall in love voluntarily now. But, if this is what she had to do to make sure Souta was kept away from the family business she would take it on.

"Kagome?"

She whipped her head up and saw Souta. Quickly retracting her fist from the wall she stood straight up and made her voice sound cheery.

"Hey Souta. Shouldn't you be doing your homework or messaging your girlfriend?" She walked by and messed up his hair.

"I'll take over as the head of the family."

Kagome stopped in her tracks and turned to look at him. "What?"

"When I'm old enough I'll do it. So...So you can get married to whoever you want!" he exclaimed with watery eyes.

Kagome smiled at him and laughed. "What's with you little brother?" She smacked him on the head.

"Ow!" Souta gripped his head.

"Don't go saying stupid things! If dad hears you he'll never let go of your promise. I'll be fine. I can't get a guy on my own anyways. Plus, this guy will probably beg his family not to marry me." Kagome petted he brother's head and smiled. "So don't worry about me."

Souta couldn't believe how strong his sister could be. He wiped his eyes and said,"Y-yeah. Who wants to marry someone like you. Your such a terrible cook you burnt the water trying to boil rice." Souta quickly ran ahead.

"Hey get back here! That only happened because I couldn't find the rice!" Kagome chased after him.
