Chapter 2: An Angel On A Bridge
So it was time to move. With that all of the memories of the house would be tucked away in Inuyasha's memory. Time after time he pandered when this day would come. He knew one day he would have to leave he just thought his Mom would be here. He never really thought this day would come so soon. And with him being in 11th grade now he was almost finished his high school years.

'Wow, it's all so strange. Maybe it will be good. Since now I can be myself. Maybe Mom's right. But what if I'm alone again? I want at least one friend. Well if I don't then I don't need them! I can get along by myself!' He convinced himself.

"Inuyasha!" His Mom called to him. "Are you about ready?!"

Inuyasha looked at his room. He laughed a little bit. He remembered fighting with his Mom over the color. He wanted black. She wanted baby blue. He looked at his beautiful window. It was his favorite thing about the room. It was huge and had a place to sit. He liked to just sit and look at the stars. If he could have his way he would have been in the tree doing that but his Mom insisted he didn't. He still loved the window even though it wasn't a tree. It was the next best thing. He looked down at the stained carpet. He spilled everything, but what did he care? His Mom wasn't happy about it, but hey they were leaving anyway. Inuyasha took one last look around his baby blue room. Laughed again at the color, and left.

Muttering to himself "My new room will be black"

It was all hard to leave. Everywhere he looked he saw ghosts from his childhood. They were of him playing. Oh him in ever mood in every kind of situation. They were of his life and how he handled it all. He sighed heavily.

'This really is it?' He thought things were just to abnormal anymore. 'Hello new life I guess' With his last look around he slugged through the door and joined his Mom and brother.

The car ride was long. And very undesired. Usually he loved car rides but that was because it gave him time to think. He was tired of that for now. He knew what he was going to think about. And it just hurt far to much. He put in a cd and listened to his head set. He knew which song he would relate to best right now. And as it came on he just sat in silence


Life it seems will fade away

Drifting further every day

Getting lost within myself

Nothing matters no one else

I have lost the will to live

Simply nothing more to give

There is nothing more for me

Need the end to set me free

It was Fade to Black by Metallica he always found a way to relate to this song. It was hard for him not to. He always wondered if he had a true purpose to live. And the way people treated him well it was hard. He became popular by masking himself literally. Now must be the time to explain his ...well... differences. He wasn't normal in appearance. Far from it. He ok no more tip toeing he looked like a dog. First he had fang like teeth. Next he had dog ears. He was healthy but just different. Something about a gene being confused or something. Well you may be wondering now how did he mask that? Well he hair was long and he covered his ears. And as for his teeth that was simple. Just got something from his dentist to temporarily cap them. When he was younger though his hair was shorter. And his ears were very noticeable. It took years to shake off his past appearance. And he was finally excepted into the 'in crowd'. But he hated it all. The only good part was he wasn't alone. Although it felt that way. His friends were just there it seemed. They had gone to places and so on but never really had fun. It wasn't really a friend ship more like a duty he had. He had fun with Kikyo though, sometimes at least. He missed her already. But when he decided to dress the way he liked listen to what he liked and stop capping his teeth. She had a major problem with it. That's putting it nicely. To make an explanation of Kikyo simple, it was her way or no way! No one can be happy if she's not. She wasn't all together bad. But after some changes, with family and such, she became this way. In fact before the changes. She was very kind hearted. But after her Father's betrayal to her Mother she was bitter. She took her anger out on others after that. Inuyasha's Mom and her were never so bitter with one another until that happened. Kikyo snapped on her and since she wasn't thrilled with Kikyo. Many felt the same. But that was a perfect combination to make her queen at school. To make her popular. That and she was pretty. But Inuyasha wasn't like her. And he had to except that. Yes love can survive without that. But when she made him do what she bid that's when it was out of hand. So now what did Inuyasha have?

'Nothing'

When they reached their final destination he simply sighed.

"Ok everybody lets go" His Mom said cheerfully.

They had just sat through a 6 hour car ride!

'Where were we going to sleep? I mean nothing has been moved in yet. We spent the whole day on the road I mean come on. This sucks!'

"Mom where are we gonna sleep?" Inuyasha asked

"Um oh dear. I hadn't thought about that. Well I'm sure the mattresses are here by now. I hope. Um lets go find out. And if not well I guess we'll be on the floor."

"What fun"

They walked inside. It was the first time Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru had even seen the house. It was fairly nice. But it was far from home. Inuyasha really wasn't happy with it. They all slept in the living room on their mattresses. Inuyasha realized that they were all sound asleep so he snuck out. He wanted to check out this town without people seeing him and asking him dumb questions. He figures at this time not many would be strolling around. It was mid-night Inuyasha favorite time. He loved walking around at night. He was strong and he knew not much would be able to hurt him.

'Oh ok same old kind of town there's the grocery store, there's the drug store, and there's a video rental place. Hmm.'

Inuyasha then came across a small little footbridge that went over a fairly deep waterway. The foot bridge was little in width but long length wise. There was a figure on it.

"What is this?" he queered to himself as he approached the bridge with much caution.

He came across a girl. She was around his age and had long black hair that shimmered from the moonlight striking it. Her eyes were gray and said for themselves of the pain she had encountered. But underneath the pain shined the love and warmth that that person possessed. She was slim and had a magnificent figure. Inuyasha engraved her appearance into his mind. Then he heard her whimpering softly as she would climb on the edge ready to jump and then she would hesitate and come back down to the binge's hard cold stone.

'Is she trying to?' With that though he approached her quickly but not in a run as to scare her.

"H-hello there" Inuyasha managed to gain the courage to try and see what was going on here.

The girl jumped at his voice and then spun around quickly a looked at Inuyasha standing behind her.

"U-um hello. I'm sorry but I'm a little busy right now so unless your a murderer I don't want to talk with you. I really am sorry." With that the girl turned around and waited to hear the sounds of his footsteps as he walked away. But that never happened instead Inuyasha tried his luck again.

"Um I'm sorry to bother you but what are you doing?"

The girl spun around and sighed heavily.

"Why do you want to know? Please go away I just want to end it"

"End what?" Inuyasha knew he had to keep talking to her or else she may jump.

"My life what do you think?"

"Oh......but why?"

"Because. Please don't tell me your gonna pull a Titanic on me and be all if you jump I jump crap"

"Oh I wont do that. I hated that movie. I laughed when um what's his name Jake? ya I laughed when Jake drowned at the end."

The girl tried to hold it in but she giggled a bit at his last remark. She swerved back to face him. With a smirk on her face.

"Ok you have my attention for now. BUT I AM NOT making any promises of not jumping. Deal?"

"Deal. So please tell me why your life sucks"

"Just does"

She looked down at the cold stone underneath her feet. And started to kick around a rock.

"Well how about this I go first and tell you why my life sucks." with that she lifted her head up and nodded looking interested. Inuyasha continued "Hello my name is Inuyasha Tama and I just broke up with my girlfriend. I loved her more then I loved to breathe and she treated me like I should be someone else. It was the hardest thing ever because I loved her that much. I changed just to be with her and when I finally showed her the real me she rejected it. Now I can't get her out of my head and to top it of. I'm new here. On the car ride over here I just kept playing Fade to Black and hated being interrupted from my sulking when my Mom and brother had to annoy me. I moved from the only place I've ever called home to this new and unfamiliar town where I will more than likely not be treated well. Because I'm different ,whatever the hell that means. I will probably be shunned from everyone else and never love again or have a single friend." He sighed as he finished and looked at the amazement in her eyes. "Ok" he smirked "Your turn."

"Ok" she laughed a bit because Inuyasha's kinda sounded like the beginning oh an AA meeting "I am madly in love with my boyfriend Kouga. I do all there is to do to show him my undying love and her never calls. He rather be with his friends. And he finds excuses on why he can't see me on this day or that." she sighed heavily continuing "When I finally got him on the phone and was able to confront him he laughed about most of it. He was to busy playing some stupid video game. When I called it that he would just shoot back it's not stupid. Despite me crying on the phone and asking him why he kept doing this to me. All of these painful things. I couldn't take it so I ran down stairs and got a knife. I yelled at him that I was going to but he didn't try to stop me. I keep digging in with the knife but the blade was to dull. It wouldn't slice me open like I wished. I was complaining about it not cutting me open and spilling my blood and the words that he said made me flood with anguish he said and I quote 'You really should get sharper knives'' Tears filled her eyes to the brim and made their escape down her cheeks. "He never tried to stop me and then he said that. I felt like death was my only escape. So here I am"

Inuyasha looked at her the pain encompassing her. She looked like a poor defense less puppy who was shoot by their own owner that they were so loyal and trusting to. Inuyasha reached out for her as she feel to the ground catching her in time.

"That was cold of him."

She simply nodded and her tear stricken face looked up at him studding his features. Then she said

"Hi I'm Kagome"
