"Okay class, after lunch it's recess." Said Mrs. Soatome, the kindergarten teacher.
The small children scurried past her and headed to lunch. Others went straight to recess.
A small girl with raven black hair pulled up into a long ponytail grabbed her lunchbox and went back to the classroom. Her small green dress danced along the air as she walked. Her name was Kagome Higurashi. She had lived in Kyoto, Japan as long as she could remember. But since she had started kindergarten, things got bad and went to worse. A bully emerged, but only seemed to pick on her. But she always seemed to find a way to ignore him.
Kagome opened her lunchbox and let out a small scream of terror. She slammed her fist on the table and stood. One word left her mouth. "Inuyasha."
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Inuyasha laughed as he headed to the playground. His small puppy ears twitched with joy and his long silver hair floated through the wind. He smiled widely, his small fangs showing clearly for the class to see. He wore a small red tee shirt and baggy black jeans to match. He was a hanyou or a half demon. And to everyone in his class, he seemed to have the coolest features. To most girls he was the heartthrob of Mrs. Soatome's class. But it also seemed as if he had his eyes set on only one girl.
Since he had started kindergarten, he was always picking on Kagome Higurashi. Nobody knew why. He had every girl in kindergarten on him, but Kagome was really the only one he'd even look twice at.
Inuyasha's best friend, Miroku ran up beside him. He was about the same height as Inuyasha. He had short brown hair that was always tied back in a small ponytail. Miroku wore a purple shirt and baggy black pants like Inuyasha's. He smiled, "I'm done watching Sango eat lunch. It seems one of her friends is quite angry though.
This brought a smile upon Inuyasha's face as he mumbled one word. "Kagome."
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Kagome turned the corner sharply, her long black ponytail whipping through the air. Her friend Sango followed quickly. Sango was her best friend. She was there whenever Kagome needed her. Her long brown hair was down and tied back nicely. She wore a black and pink dress with black boots. She and Kagome were alike in many ways, except most boys were scared of her.
"Kagome calm down. I don't think any body wants to die today." Sango called worriedly. She was carrying Kagome's lunchbox in her hands as she chased after her.
Kagome ignored the comment and continued on her way. She was angry and anybody who stood in her way was in for serious pain.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Meanwhile, Inuyasha stood by the slides with his best friend, Miroku across from him.
"Oh yeah, man. And she didn't even notice I put worms in her lunchbox. Just wait until she goes to lunch." He said cockily.
"Yeah, and then Sango will be begging me to save her best friend. Then when I succeed, she'll have nothing but gratitude for me." Miroku added.
Inuyasha shook his head. "You know Miroku, I have no idea, what you just said, but I bet it fits into the plan perfectly." He said patting his friend on the shoulder.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"INUYASHA!" came a small feminine voice. Loud footsteps were heard from throughout the playground. Inuyasha smiled and rubbed his hands together in a fiendish way. "So it begins." He mumbled.
"YOU! YOU! YOU IDIOT!" yelled Kagome. She raised a hand and struck him across the face. Inuyasha screeched quietly and rubbed the sore mark on his cheek.
"I see you found my surprise, Kagome." He said smiling. Kagome scowled and clenched her fists. She held a hand behind her back. Sango placed Kagome's lunchbox in her hand and backed away.
"Yeah. I found it. But you can keep it!" she yelled as she opened the box and poured it over Inuyasha's long silver hair. The long dirty worms fell onto his head and some onto the ground. All the children on the playground gathered around and laughed at the scene.
Inuyasha looked around at the kids laughing and his anger grew higher and higher. Kagome smirked and began walking away. She turned back around and waved.
"Enjoy." She said loud enough for everyone to hear. The laughs only grew louder. And that pushed the small hanyou to the edge. He pounced onto Kagome's back and brought her to the ground. He turned her over and swiped at her right cheek, leaving a deep gash. Kagome screamed as the blood flowed down her face. She shoved her knee into Inuyasha's rib cage and pushed him off. But Inuyasha would not give up. He was coming back for more. Miroku grabbed his arms and pulled him back onto the ground. He sat on him and looked to Sango.
"Get her out of here." He yelled. Sango nodded and helped Kagome back into the classroom.
"You're gonna be ok, Kagome. It's just a cut." Sango cooed to her best friend, who was in tears.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Later on that day….
"Inuyasha, what is wrong with you?" Mrs. Soatome questioned. Inuyasha looked down at the ground and back at Kagome. Kagome looked at him and scowled. The now purplish- blue wound on her face showing clearly. Inuyasha looked back at the teacher, a guilty look now on his face.
"Your brother is on his way to come and get you." She said as there was a knock at the door. She walked over and opened it, only to see an older looking version of Inuyasha.
"Sesshomaru?" Inuyasha asked in a confused tone. Sesshomaru shook his head and took his little brother by the hand.
"Inuyasha has been playing a lot of jokes lately. Today he hit one of his female classmates. I'm becoming worried about his behavior." Mrs. Soatome explained.
Sesshomaru shrugged and said in an emotionless tone, "It doesn't matter. We are moving. So, Inuyasha will no longer be a problem." He said, walking out the door with Inuyasha next to him. Kagome watched as her kindergarten bully left. This time for good.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Sango, Kagome, Miroku, and Kikyo all walked home from school together that day.
"I'm sorry about what Inuyasha did to you, Kagome." Miroku said. Kagome nodded.
"It's ok, Miroku. It wasn't your fault."
"Will your scar ever go away?" Sango asked a hint of worry in her voice. Kagome shook her head and sighed.
"That's too bad. Everyone knows I'm the pretty twin anyways, Kagome." Kikyo teased.
Kikyo was Kagome's twin sister. She was older by three minutes so she always made it seem like she was better than Kagome. Even though, pretty much everyone in kindergarten hated her. Except for her stupid air headed crew, which consisted of, Rina and Rika. Two other "less fortunate and far less pretty twins." As Kikyo would put it.
Kikyo and Kagome were twins but had completely different personalities. Kikyo was obsessed with Inuyasha. Kagome could care less about him. Even though they dressed alike they wore different colors, so it was easier to tell them apart. Kagome wore green and Kikyo wore red.
Kagome scowled at her sister and walked towards her. They stood face to face. Kikyo smiled cockily.
"What, Kagome? You know it's true. Even mom thinks I'm prettier than you. So does Ji-chan."
"You really think so, Kikyo? Why is it you beg for Inuyasha's attention, but he always ends up giving it to me?" Kagome responded.
"Sure he gives you his attention. But if it was me he had given it to, I wouldn't have gotten slapped in the face." Kikyo shot back. Kagome scowled.
"You are so right. If he had given you his attention, you probably would've gotten run over. Sort of like this." Kagome said, pushing Kikyo down into the street as a truck came. Sango and Miroku gasped and ran over. Each of them grabbed one of Kikyo's arms and pulled out of the street right before the truck was about to run her over.
Kagome stood and watched with amusement in her eyes. She turned around and walked the rest of the way to her house. She lived on a shrine with her mother, grandfather, and baby brother.
She ran quickly up the stairs of the shrine and into the main house. She took her shoes off and entered the house.
"I'm home!" she called out to everyone.
"Lunch is on the table girls." Called Mrs. Higurashi.
"It's just Kagome mom." Kagome said, sitting down at the table and taking a bite of her lunch. Her mother walked in and looked around.
"Where's your sister, Kagome?" she asked. Just as Kagome was about to answer, the door opened and in walked Kikyo.
"Mommy. Kagome pushed me into the street and almost got me run over by a car." She whined. Kagome rolled her eyes and looked at her mother who was scowling down at her.
"Is this true, Kagome?" she asked. Kagome shook her head.
"She tripped and fell, Mom. You know how clumsy she is. Remember the time she tripped and fell into the boy's bathroom?" Kagome responded. She slid out of her chair and headed upstairs. Kikyo followed her and entered their room. They both changed into their pajamas. Kikyo climbed onto the top bunk and Kagome onto the bottom.
"You're gonna get what's coming, Kagome. Just wait and see." Kikyo whispered down to her.
"Sure. Goodnight Kikyo." Kagome mumbled back.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
12 years later….
Kagome tapped her pencil on her desk as she stared at nothing in particular. Her long black her dangled down the sides of her face, and down her back. She wore a green tank top and light blue jean capri's. Her green flip flops matched her shirt and her toenail polish.
The door opened and someone walked in. It was a boy. A tall boy with long silver hair. The boy had on a large red tee shirt and baggy blue jeans. His shoes looked brand new. They were white and beamed in the light. The boy made his way to the instructor's desk.
He handed a small paper to the teacher. The short bald man nodded and pointed to a desk on the left of Kagome.
"Take a seat next to Higurashi. Higurashi raise your hand to let the new student know where to sit. Higurashi. Higurashi!"
Kagome snapped out of her trance and looked at the teacher. "Yes Mr. Hanata?" she asked in a slightly annoyed voice.
The teacher pointed to Kagome and Inuyasha made his way over to the seat next to her. He locked his eyes onto Kagome and stared. Kagome also looked at him through the corner of her eye. Every time she looked away and then back, he still had his eyes on her. This irritated her, so she had no choice but to tell him off.
"You know, I heard that if you take a picture, it might last longer." She whispered nodding her head.
Inuyasha scowled. "You just look familiar. That's all. It's like I've seen you before." He whispered back.
Kagome rolled her eyes. "Yeah. I get that a lot."
The teacher made his way to the front of the classroom. "Class…We have a new student. Why don't you come and tell us a bit about yourself?" the teacher suggested.
Inuyasha sighed and stood from his seat. He made his way to the front of the room and cleared his throat. He shoved his hands into the pockets of his pants and said, "My name is Takahashi Inuyasha. I used to live in Kyoto when I was little. I moved when I was about 5. But now, I'm back to stay." He said with a smirk, making his way back to his seat. Kagome kept her eyes on him the whole time.
'Inuyasha?' she thought.
