Welcome to the Topics

Kagome emerged from the bathroom with a black halter top, black pants, with black shoes. Her hair was bone straight and the only make up she had on was lip gloss. She smiles, "Well I'm ready."

--------

Natsume looks at her watch, "We should leave now if we wnt to make it on time."

Amaterasu stood at Kagomes mirror, putting the make-up on. Eye liner, tricky stuff.
"I'm almost."

---

"Shall we?" LUke asked, standing and holding out his arm.

Kagome decides to put on some bracelets as she waited.

------

"We shall." Natsume grins taking Luke's arm as Justice takes her other arm putting her in the middle. "I feel special." Natsume grins.

"Done." Amaterasu declaired, her finger finxing her eye make up carefully.

---

Luke grinned. "I really like this one Justice." He kissed Natsume's cheek.

"Good, let's go." Kagome says grabbing her phone and keys.

------

Natsume blushes.

Justice kisses her other cheek. "I like her too."

"You two are gonna melt me in a puddle if you kep doing that." Natsume says still blushing. "Now we should really get going."

Amaterasu grabbed her wallet and that was about it. "I'm ready."

----

Luke nodded. "I want out of here, these stiff old bones can't take much more tom foolery!" He stretched as he was talking. "I wanna boogy down."

Kagome goes to her car and heads off with Ama to the concert.

-----

Natsume laughs as they get into Justice's car. ""I'm with Luke. I haven't danced in ages."

Justice winks at her, "You were dancing yesterday...in my bed."

Natsume playfully hits Justice "Not that kind of dancing, silly."

Justice starts the car up as Natsume got into the backseat.

Amaterasu sat there quiety, looking out the window.

----

"Just..." Luke began hesitently. "What was it like without me? How did everyone cope?"

Kagome continued to drive there, about halfway there she turned on the radio.

------

Justice made a turn, "It was hard on everyone....Yuki left after you died going off somewhere, your brother came to see you the very same day you died...and he was devastaed. And me...I tried to let it not affect me...tried to be strong and shit, but.....there was an incident with Kagome and Inuyasha....he said some disrespectful shit about you and pissed me off, after Ama beat the shit out of him I came across Kagome cying. Next thing I know I'm sobbing in her car while she was trying to calm me down." Justice's cheeks turned pink. "It was...ah...embarrassing, I've never cried so much in my life. And next three months after that incident I cried almost every single night. It was torture to try and move on without you, hell it was hard on everyone."

"Heres a new song by Trading Yesterday written in Yuki's erly days of writting. Said he was really bitter didn't he carl?"
"He sure did David."
"Anyway, here it is. Little girl."

You never cared to hear the other side
So why would you care to keep this thing alive
You paint me into the memory of all your pain
But I will not be drawn into the past again

Cause all of this is all that I can take
And you could never understand the demons that I face
So go ahead and bat your eyes and lie right to the world
For with everything you are, you're just a little girl

I never meant for you to feel this way
The Decembers were never meant to be our graves
It's not a question of who is wrong and what is right
But time can not heal what you will never recognize

Cause all of this is all that I can take
And you could never understand the demons that I face
So go ahead and bat your eyes and lie right to the world
For with everything you are, you're just a little girl

So go ahead and cry, go ahead believe that you are right
To keep away the dark
To help you sleep tonight
Go on and decide
Who is wrong, what is right
Cause you know inside

Cause all of this is all that I can take
And you could never understand the demons that I face
So go ahead and bat your eyes and lie right to the world
For with everything you are
Cause all of this is all that I can take
And you could never understand the demons that I face
So go ahead and bat your eyes and lie right to the world
For with everything you are, you're just a little girl

Luke looked down into his hands, his face fallen.

Kagome just kept driving, she really didn't know what to make of the song, "We're almost there." She says quietly.

--------

"You shouldn't worry yourself though." Justice says giving Luke a glance. "You're back and everything will be fine."

Sesshoumaru nodded. "Now... Drink up."

Kikyou drinks whatever it is he gives her. "If I die.....I'm coming back to haunt you." Kikyou mumbles.

He rolled his eyes. "You wouldn't. I would just bother you until you leave me alone."

Kikyou looks at him for a moment with bleary eyes, "You have really nice hair.....and pretty eyes too."

"Hmm?" He looked down at her. Is she delirious?

"You have nice hair and pretty eyes..." Kikyou states in a matter of fact tone

Sesshoumaru looked at her. "... Thank you?" he tried.

Kikyou starts to drift off to sleep, "If you weren't such an ass at times....I'd consider liking you."

He placed the medicine bottle down. "I'll hold you on that," he said quietly as he left her to her slumber.

Kikyou slept soundly, with an occasional cough.

Touga looks up when he sees Sesshoumaru, "That girl is still here?"

"She's sick... and she lives alone," he muttered, grabbing his planner off the table.

"Ah, poor kid." Touga says shaking his head. "By the way I want to let you know that I did a background on her.....I had to make sure of who she was considering that she knows of our secret."

"And you came up with..." he motioned.

"Well her mom is a UN ambassador so that's why she's always gone and she the product of a rape. Oh and her mother is a Higurashi priestess of the Higurashi shrine that houses the old Bone Eaters well." Touga replies.
