Hey guys this is something I wanted to write for the longest of time. Hopefully this will help my creative juices flowing again, because I can't even stand the way my fics look right now, like…I don't even know why I have fans or gotten reviews because it's just..So bad. So hopefully with this fic I will have gotten at least a little bit better.
Title: Once in a blue moon.
Inuyasha and Persona 3/P3P Xover
Pairing: Kagome/? Minako/? Minato/?
Rating: T for violence for now. May change.
Changes: Kagome went into the feudal era at 14 instead of 15 and was born 1992 instead of 1982. Also, both Minako and Minato will be in this fic. Minato was already part of S.E.E.S, and Minako had just returned from the hospital.
"Kagome, maybe you should relocate yourself. You haven't been the same since you came home from the past."
"What's gotten into you Kagome? I mean, I know it's you, but you seem colder and your eyes lost that shine."
"Nee-chan, what happened in the past?"
"Kagome-I'm sorry but…"
"Kagome-chan!"
"Kagome-chan"
"Kagome-sama"
"Kaa-san."
"Miko. Where do you want to go?"
"Due to a malfunction in the switching system, today's rail schedule has been greatly altered. We apologize to any customers who were in a hurry the next stop is Iwatodai." Opening her eyes slowly, Kagome looked around and stretched. Standing up to get her bag, her long braid bounced with her movement. Her mind was always racing and her thoughts were all over the place.
Two years. It has been two years since the jewel was complete. She was excited, and in love. Everything felt like it was going to end well for her but everything changed. Her return home was one of confusion and chaos. Covered in blood and in the arms of a man she didn't know, her mother was silent and helped the man clean the broken, blank eyed girl he wouldn't let go.
Two years of collecting jewel shard and making friends in two different time periods. Two years of risking her life every day for a time that was not hers. There wasn't a day when Kagome wondered, "What would happen if I just left the past and never came back?" and other selfish thoughts but her heart wouldn't let her turn her back on something she caused. She had to finish it all the way through. All her friends were suffering because of her and they continued to fight, so for her to quit was unacceptable.
She wasn't expecting them to abandon her. Not when she threw away her own life for them but they did.
Sighing, the train came to a stop and ignoring the parting message; Kagome walked off the train and headed towards her destination. She was damn near 3 hours late but she would get there on her own time. Everything was quiet just like the train ride to this place. A small smile on her face as she remembered choosing Iwatodai over all the areas she could have went to study. It wasn't heavily populated like Tokyo at all and plus, she was going to see an old acquaintance of hers.
Her familiar yellow book bag was slung over her shoulders and the steady clicking of her heels as she walked out of the station sounded louder that it should with the eerie quite looming on her. As soon as she got out side of the train station all of her senses were screaming at her. Coffin like objects were gave off an eerie red color, the sky was green and the moon was an odd yellow and larger than normal. Blood was covering everything, and was everywhere.
'I know better than this. It seems like no matter where I go, odd crap seems to happen to me. I'm sure this will be explained later. For now, I will just head to the dorm.' The walk to the dorm was deathly quiet and every now and again, a dark shadow would race at her but she would just let lose a small amount of her power and they ran away.
Finally, somewhere around 12:50 in the morning, Kagome was in front of the dorms. The lights were still on, and she was filled with guilt. She didn't think someone would wait up for her this late, not with school in the morning. Opening the door, she stepped in to hear voice talking in another room. Walking towards the voices she couldn't help but notice how large the room was. 'This building is a little nice to be a dorm for high school students.' She thought.
"I'm glad you're quick to understand." She heard a man say as she walked into the room. The first on that noticed her presence was a handsome grey-silver haired teen. 'No amber eyes? Progress. Such a pretty eye color.' She thought, smiling a little. "I hope I am not interrupting anything." All the others jumped or winced at the sound of her voice and turned towards her. One held a gun rose to her head as if she was going to shoot herself and faster than they could imagine, Kagome was across the room and holding the gun in her hands. "What is wrong with you! Don't you know you shouldn't point guns at yourself like that, whatever you are going though in life you should talk to someone before you try this."
"Higurashi-san, you have arrived."
"Drop the formalities Mitsuru-chan, you know me better than that."
The red haired beauty chuckled and nodded. "Still the same as ever I see? This meeting is over, I will talk to you all soon. As for now, I would like you all to meet Higurashi Kagome. She will be staying with us to finish her schooling." She turned towards Kagome and nodded.
"Higurashi, Kagome. Blood type AB, Libra, age 16." Was all she told them. All eyes were locked on her, and she bowed to them.
"Oh, well, My name is Yukari Takeba. Age 16." Said the girl she ripped the gun from. Confusion and fear was in her aura and Kagome smirked.
"Akihiko Sanada. Age 17. Nice to meet you." The silver-haired boy said with an awkward smile. His aura was a neutral tone to it and radiated with a feel of urgency. 'Must be a fighter.' She thought.
"Arisato, Minato. Age 16. Nice to meet you." The blue eyes, and dark blue haired teenaged boy said. 'The quiet and reserved type. As if I didn't have enough people with these characteristics in my life. His aura was friendly though and shown with genuine curiosity.
"Arisato, Minako. Age 16. Please to meet you." A red eyed, chestnut colored hair girl told her. Kagome couldn't help but give the girl a small smile. Her aura radiated happiness and her smile was infectious.
"And we talked over the phone. It is nice to finally meet you." Ikutsuki said giving her an easy smile. Kagome's eyes narrowed at the man and turned back to Mitsuru. "So, was all my furniture moved in?" Mitsuru nodded. "The rest came in earlier this morning. Let me show you were to put you're things. Good night he rest of you."
"Oyasumi-nasai minna." Kagome said to then, bowed, and then let Mitsuru show her to her room.
"Ikutsuki-san, who is she?"
"Higurashi-chan? Oh, she is an old family friend of the Kirijo family. Currently, she will be entering school with the rest of you as a junior. Please regard her kindly, and also try and keep the S.E.E.S. project on the low. We don't need to pull any innocents in with the situation."
The others nodded and Yukari and Minako headed to bed. Akihiko got ready to leave too until the quiet voice of their leader spoke out. "Ikutsuki-san. I have a feeling that she should know."
"Oh? How so?"
"It was 12:50 when she arrived here. If she was completely normal, wouldn't she have been here much later since she would have been in a coffin?" Ikutsuki's eyes widened and nodded. "I will speak with Mitsuru about this. I am sure if you noticed this small factor, then she must have as well."
Akihiko bid them good night and headed off to bed. The girl was a different one. When she had entered the room, he didn't see or hear her. He FELT her enter the room. It was as if warmth had entered the room, and when he turned, haunting silver-blue eyes bored into his Grey-green ones. Her eyes reflected so many emotions in one that he had to look away. 'What kind of things did she go through to have eyes like that?' he wondered.
The next morning, Kagome woke up because she felt a presence outside her door. "I am awake." She called out. A startled squeak was heard and Kagome chuckled. "Um, I hope I'm not bothering you but we wanted to know if you wanted to walk to school together?" it took a moment but Kagome recognized the voice. It was Yukari Takeba.'
"Give me a moment to prepare myself and I will meet you at the door Takeba-san." She said while grabbing her uniform. From the other side of the door she could hear Takeba and Arisato talking as they left.
"Wow, she's so formal and polite." Minako said. Yukari nodded. "How did she know I was going to knock on her door though?"? Minako shrugged.
After taking a shower and deciding on how she was going to wear her hair, Kagome was ready for her first day of school at Gekkoukan High School.
Grabbing her briefcase, Kagome left her room and saw Minato walking out of his room on her way down.
"Ohayo, Arisato-san." Kagome greeted with a small smile.
"Ohayo, Higurashi-san." He greeted back with a nod. The two of them headed to the front together in silence. "Ohayo!" Minako greeted the two when they made it to the door. Kagome smiled at her and nodded. "Higurashi-san, you look really nice." Yukari said with a small smile.
Kagome wore the school uniform but added a bit of a touch to it. Kagome wore a black corset vest over her school blouse with a dark red tie instead of a ribbon. Her skirt reached her mid-thigh, she wore black tights, showing no skin and had a pair 3 inch heels in her hand. Her long black hair was curled and had a red hair band in her hair. Her bangs were pulled to the left of her face with a black clip that looked like a spider.
"Wow. You have really long hair Higurashi-san." Minako said as Kagome pulled on her black blazer and shoes. It looked even longer loose than when she had it in the braid early that morning.
"Arisato-san?"
"Hai?"
"Just call me Kagome. I'm not a fan of formalities." She said. Minako smiled at her. "Then call me Minako."
The two girls nodded and then walked out the door together.
School was school no matter where you went but she did in fact enjoy school here. She never had seen teachers so excited to teach than Mr. Ono and Mr. Edogawa. Kagome smiled as she thought about her History's teacher's fondness for the Warring states Era. Mitsuru told her that she had to join a club and couldn't decide which one. She didn't want to join tennis or boxing, and she wasn't fond of much else, so she decided to sign up for Kendo or Archery. Heading to the Kendo area first, Kagome opened the door only to have the tip of a shinai pointed in her face.
"I am sorry but we do not allow girls to join the Kendo club any longer. Lack of dedication and constant drop outs made this decision final." Pushing the shinai out of her face, Kagome tugged it out of her hand and swiftly cracked him on the head.
"That's not how you should address your senpai." She said entering the dojo. The practice that was going on before she entered the room stopped and all eyes were on her.
"What do you think you are doing?" a loud boy yelled at her.
"Can I help you miss?" a polite voice asked her from behind his men.
"Yes, I would actually like to join the club. I have practice Kendo for the last year and since I live here now I won't be able to continue to practice with my school."
Removing his men, a young but mature face, with deep brown eyes greeted her. "My name is Kumura, Kazushiro. I am the homeroom teacher of 1-A and also teach Advanced Chemistry. If you are serious about joining this club, I need you to suit up and join us."
As Yukari, Junpei and Minako talked, with Minato talking when asked a question, the door slid open and an average looking boy rushed in. "There is some guy fighting Kumura-sensei! I heard he's from class 2-A, the advanced class."
"No way!" and few students raced to the dojo.
"We should check it out to ay Yuka-tan?" Yukari rolled her eyes.
"Why would I can about that anyway?"
"Isn't Kagome-chan in class 2-A, maybe she's down there two and we could all walk home together." Minako said. This time Yukari agreed and the small group headed to the dojo. As they arrived they noticed it was packed. "Minato-kun, do you see Kagome-chan?"
"I can't see and she is pretty short." He said trying to get around the screaming girls and towards Akihiko who was standing with Mitsuru. Following his lead, the four of them reached the impressed looking group.
"What's going on?" Yukari asked.
"Kumura-sensei was challenged by a student in order to join the club. They have been going at it for at least 20 minutes now." Akihiko told them.
"Why?" Minato asked. For some reason it looked as if the smaller person was holding back even though Kumura was giving his all.
Due to the fact that a lot of girls were constantly joining the club in order to be around Kumura-sensei or some of the other student males, they had enforced a no female rule."
"Wait, why would a male student fight over a rule against females?" Junpei asked.
Minato looked at the fighting pair and finally a blow was landed. It grew quiet in the arena as the looks of all the kendo students faces fell completely.
"No way. Gyakudou…" one of them whispered.
"I'm still confused."
As the person removed their helmet, Minato looked at Junpei as said, "That's because the student fighting is a girl." Jaw as slacked as the large group of girls and the kendo team, Junpei could only watch as the girl unwound her braid from the tight bun she had it in.
"So can I join?" she asked. The stares she was getting was making her giddy and anxious.
"We will see you tomorrow then." Kumura said, after taking of his men.
Kagome smiled brightly and bowed and then…
"KYA! Kagome-senpai is so awesome!"
"Way to go Kagome-san!"
"Higurashi-senpai!"
"Higurashi-san!"
"SO COOL!"
Kagome felt her cheeks warm at the cheers from her fellow students.
Later that night, Kagome went into her room. She had talked with the group more to learn more about them and tease Junpei for a bit Kagome headed to her room for the night. Turning on her light, she knew, without a doubt, that someone had been in her room.
'If I find out someone is snooping on me there will be hell to pay.' She thought quietly. Pulling out her cell phone she dialed an number and smiled as it was picked up on the second ring.
'Hai, Higurashi desu.'
"Okaa-san." A gasp was heard on the other line.
'Kagome-chan. I miss you so much, Souta, Otou-san its Kagome!' Kagome could hear her brother cry out and her grandfather's loud cheer.
'I am going to put you on speakerphone.'
"Hello Jii-chan, Gaki-chan."
'Hey! I am not a brat! How are you Ane-ue?' another smile graced her face. After returning home, Souta held an even deeper respect for her and started calling her Ane-ue instead of Onee-chan.
'Kagome! if you need to take a break I can call your school for you to tell them you are ill, I came up with 40 more rare disease.' Giggling, Kagome sighed.
"No thank you Jii-chan, I need to stay in school. Hopefully, I will be in strong physical condition all year. I am doing alright Otouto. I am captain of the Kendo team effective immediately. I fought our instructor and he promoted me."
'Sugoi!' he cried.
'I want you to be very careful Kagome. I know you will do well and I pray I get to see your real smile soon. I miss you so much.'
Kagome felt her eyes water at the strong emotions in her mother's voice. Even after she realized her daughters personality did a complete 360 she still treated her the same and she loved her for that.
'now, get some sleep. I know you have a long day ahead of you.'
"Hai. Oyasumi-nasai minna."
'Oyasumi Kagome-chan! Ganbatte!' they said back and she hung up.
Turning of her lights, Kagome climbed in her bed and closed her eyes to sleep. It was only 9:00 but she was used to sleeping early only to wake up before the sun rose.
That feeling she was being watched however, hindered that sleep. As she lay there, pretending to sleep, she heard the small beep from her alarm clock letting her know that it was midnight. Pushing her aura out and around the dorm, she couldn't feel the traces of anyone's aura meaning they were all gone.
'I need to get to the bottom of this immediately.' She thought turning to look out her window. The bright eerie moon light lit her room and the horrible green of the sky only made it seem larger. Mitsuru is going to have a lot of explaining to do tomorrow.' For now, Kagome turned over and went to sleep.
Never noticing the small pair of eyes on the ceiling above her, watching her every breath.
Pretty long for a first chapter right? I know, only 3 thousand character but hey it's something. I'm, going to keep it at this length just about. More or less anyway. So review, and if someone is interested in being my beta, then send me a PM, got questions, ask them. Got a problem, keep it moving. :D
