A/N: Hi everyone, I want to thank Inu-shinta, Tainted Dreams, Cathy and Linda for reviewing chapter seven. I know, what horrible people Fuu and her little circle of friends are! I had fun writing that one, I tried to make them as mean as possible. Anyway, here is chapter eight. It's not a long chapter, but, it's what came out of my head. I hope you enjoy and please review. Ciao.

The next day…

“Miroku, have you seen Hotaru?” Kagome said looking around the area and seeing no sign of her daughter anywhere.

“I looked by the tree, in her room and I don’t know where else to look. So…have you?”

Miroku didn’t know what to say, in fact, he wasn’t sure if he should have even come home. He knew he royally messed up and there was nothing he could do to fix this mess.

“Not today.”

Kagome paled, she was beginning to worry.

“The school called, the principle said something happened yesterday. Miroku, it was bad this time, apparently the young man she was dating… used her.”

“What are you talking about Kagome?”

Kagome began to shake she reached into her pocket but Miroku stopped her.

“Not now Kagome, we don’t need you to be in a far off place. I need you focused what happened?”

“Miroku, the boy…I think he used our daughter and then paraded around the school. His circle of friends they cornered her after school yesterday, they fought and witnesses say that they saw Hotaru use her powers. The principle wants to speak with us.”

Miroku then realized why she had a cut on her forehead. But, it made him feel even worse.

“Kagome, it gets better.”

He slumped his shoulders and sat down on the ground.

“What do you mean it gets better, what does that mean Miroku?”

He grabbed her by the elbow and led her away from the crowd and then he continued to wait for some of the passers by to continue on. In a lowered voice he began to make his confessions.

“Kagome…I don’t know where to begin…all I have to say is_is that I’m sorry.”

“Sorry for what exactly Miroku?” Kagome said now, her eyes suspicious and her head tilted just a little bit to the side but maintaining eye contact.

“She ran into me yesterday.”

“So?”

“I was with another woman, Kagome…I was having a sex with a prostitute. I can’t help myself, it’s been like this for some time now. I promise after seeing the look on our daughters face, I can’t keep doing that. I wanted to stop honestly I did, but, the things between you and me and then…I’ve stopped Kagome, I promise I did this time.”

After saying what he did, Kagome in righteous anger slapped him hard. She didn’t care who saw it. She slapped him so hard he fell to the ground.

“Miroku! You stupid son of a bitch! How could you do that?! I hate you; I hate you so much…why? Why damn you!? You promised me last time and now Hotaru…she’s…oh god oh god oh god…””

Miroku looked away tears forming in his eyes.

“This is me…Kagome…the mother of our daughter and she saw you…after everything that we’ve been through…I thought we were working it all out?”

Kagome’s shoulders began to shake with tears forming in her eyes. She pulled out her medicine and popped a couple of pills. She breathed deeply with her eyes closed.

“I should have let you die back then I should have left your worthless ass back in Fuedal Japan and let Inuyasha have you.”

Now a little bit more calm since the drugs were beginning to settle her nerves she continued.

“I want for you to get your things…and leave here.”

“Kagome!”

“No, I don’t want to hear it you bastard!”

She made to slap at him again, but this time he caught her hand and held her in his embrace. She fought him like a mad cat until all the fight was out of her and she sobbed expressing how much she hated him. Than she began to blame herself for all of this mess that they put their daughter through.

Hotaru was in the well house as she watched her parents fight. Tears slid down her cheeks as she silently blamed herself for their problems.

‘This is your entire fault you know, look at them; look how upset they are, look at how miserable they are.’

“That’s not true, this is not my fault, every marriage has problems.”

“So, our father was in an alley…why? Our mother she’s a drug addict why?”

Said the evil alter ego.

“Shut up… go away!”

‘You can never make me go away Hotaru. As long as your breathing and we share the same body, I exist.’

Hotaru looked down trying to clear her mind of that awful voice when she spotted an object that was blunt. It was an old arrow head from one of Kagome’s arrows. Hotaru reached out to it with a shaky hand.

‘What do you think you are doing Hotaru. You think to kill yourself? You could never do it you know, your weak and pathetic.’

Hotaru eyes watered up with salty tears as she picked up the blunt object, she put up to her wrist and began to cut. In pain she dropped the weapon and fell down the well.

A/N: So, what do you say guys, should I put up chapter nine lets say tomorrow? It depends on how many reviews I get. That's right, I'm holding chapter nine for ransom unless I have request for chapter nine lets say about eight request posted in the reviews, if these demands are not met, than you will all have to wait two weeks for the next chapter. Hahahahahahaha. I guess I'm in an evil mood right now, you all can blame the dog. She really pist me off this morning when she ate poo from some animal I think it was a cat. That royally disgusted me I wanted to kick her stubby tail all the way back home.

And yes I know it's another cliffy, get used to them, they are in the story a lot. One reader her name is Linda wanted to know if Hotaru was a reincarnated version of somebody.Well Linda to your answer, No, she is not a reincarnated person, but, she did live before, however, I am leaving clues throughout the story to point to her identification. Keep on reading and thanks for the email. If anyone has a guess you know where to leave it, R&R love you all.
