Ch 2 - Kagome and the Love of her life
"Higurashi Souta!" The teacher's voice echoed through the classroom. It was directed at a 15-year-old boy who was sleeping in the back of the room. Souta snapped awake."Please pay attention if you want to pass tomorrow's exam!"
"Yes, sir." Souta replied. The teacher slowly began approaching the back of the classroom. He was about to scold the sleepy boy when... RING! Unfortunately (or fortunately) the class was over. The teacher retreated with an annoyed look on his face. As the teacher and other students left, Shippo, Souta's friend, came up to him.
"Man, what's up wit you?" Shippo asked. He tapped Souta on the head. Souta finally sat up and looked his friend in the eye.
"Ugh. I didn't get to sleep much last night because of my sister's stupid boyfriend." Souta began putting his books away into this bookbag. "My sister made me listen to him ramble on and on about the history of herbal medicine. I think she got tired of listening, too. Anyway, I hope she breaks up with her boyfriend soon, he is by far the worst boyfriend she's ever had. He's so dull."
"If he's so dull, then why is he your sister's boyfriend? He must be at least a little interesting."
"Well, actually no. One of her friends hooked them up." Souta looked at his watch. Panic crossed his face. "Oh, crap, I'm going to be late. Kagome is so gonna kill me for this!" Grabbing his backpack and jacket in one motion, he rushed out the door before Shippo could say good-bye.

'Red Light. $hit. Turn green, already, dammit!' Souta looked around at the people around him. None of them seemed vexed about the light, except him. 'Man, why won't the light turn green already! There aren't even any cars going on the street.' One more look at his wristwatch and Souta came to a decision. 'That's it. I'm going to cross the street, even if it is a red light.' With that, Souta began to run across the wide street, not noticing a truck that was zooming towards him. He turned towards the truck and shielded his eyes from the headlights. The truck driver was honking and then Souta realized he was going to be hit if he didn't move fast. The truck was going to hit him. It's the end, Souta thought, so Souta just stood there, mesmerized. When the truck was about to hit him, Souta closed his eyes, awaiting the impact.
The next thing Souta knew was that he was on the side of the street with someone on top of him. Souta looked up at a man with long silver hair and amber eyes.Then, he realized what had happened. Right before he was going to be hit by the truck, the man with long silver hair and amber eyes knocked Souta out of the truck's path. As the truck zoomed by, Souta rubbed the arm he fell on. His rescuer looked at him. "Are you alright?" He asked, looking at Souta with his amber eyes.
'Wow. This guy saved me.' Souta thought as the man was shaking him. 'He's so cool, being so fast and all.' Finally, he realized that the man was asking if he was alright and replied."Yea, yea, I'm fine. Thank you. I'd like to chat, but I'm kind of late! Sorry, and thank you!" Souta hurried up and rushed home, where his sister Kagome was waiting.
He didn't notice that his rescuer was following him all the way.

Souta arrived home just in time to witness an argument between Kagome and her boyfriend.
"I'm telling you it's over! Let's break up!" Kagome shouted.
"No, Kagome! I won't let you go!" Kagome's boyfriend shouted back.
"Hojo, give it up already! I told you, we're through!" She turned to enter the shrine (her home.)
"Wait, Kagome! What did I do wrong? Give me another chance!" Hojo grabbed Kagome roughly by the arm.
"Hey! Let me go!"
"I won't let go until you tell me why you're breaking up with me!" Souta watched from a corner as Kagome struggled from Hojo's grasp. He was about to go help his sister when someone else walked up to the two and took Hojo's arm off Kagome.
"Hey, what do you think you're doing?" Hojo asked the stranger.
"You bastard. She wanted you to let go." the stranger replied.
Hojo was about to say something, but the stranger stood between the two of them. "I'll call you tonight!" Hojo shouted as he walked away.
"Don't bother!" Kagome shouted back and stuck out her tongue at him. Souta rushed to his sister.
"Hey, sis, are you okay?" he asked Kagome.
"Yea, I'm fine." Kagome told Souta. She turned to the stranger. "Thank you for helping me out just a moment ago."
"No problem." the stranger replied. Souta took a closer look at the stranger, then shouted, "It's you! You're the one who saved me from that truck today!"
"So you were the boy who walked on a red light and I knocked you out of the way of the truck, right? Be more careful next time, okay?"
"Sure. By the way what's your name?"
The stranger hesitated for a moment, then replied, "My name is Inu-Yasha. What is your name?"
"I'm Souta." Souta said. He pointed to his sister. "And this is Kagome, my older sister."
"Nice to meet you both. Souta, here is your backpack and jacket, you left them back there at the light." Inu-Yasha handed the items to Souta. "I have an appointment now, if you'll excuse me." As Inu-Yasha left the shrine, Souta couldn't help thinking that it would be cool if Inu-Yasha were Kagome's boyfriend. After all, he did save her. Plus, it would be great to have Inu-Yasha for a big brother.
"Souta, will you stop staring and get inside?" Kagome asked her brother. Souta nodded and followed his sister inside the shrine/home.
