Chapter 1: A New Beggining
A beautiful and quite upset raven haired girl stared in misery at the school in front of her. Big, squared, and boring was all that she could see out of it. It was Kagome Higurashi's first day at a new school, and she already hated it. A year before this, she was living happily with her mother, father and little brother in a small town outside of Tokyo. Life was nearly perfect, until the dreaded day when the doctor had called her family. Her father had become very ill, and was given 6 months to live. He lasted 6 days. Without the extra income, Kagome had to move into a small apartment with the rest of her family and attend a public school. It seemed that the seventeen-year-old's life had crashed down before her without her taking a second breath.
Now standing here, staring at this new high school, Sakura High, Kagome felt more like she was going to prison. She had no friends, no family, no one here. Wearing a comfortable pair of jeans and a form-fitting t-shirt, she only hoped that she could blend in so no one would bother her.
'Well, might as well get going….' She thought, less than enthusiastic.
Slowly she pulled open the door and nearly fell over backwards at the sight that was presented to her. Both boys and girls were laughing loudly, almost screaming, two boys ran through the hall like madmen, and she counted…1…2…3..4 couples making out within at least 3 meters of each other.
'This is going to be a very interesting year' she thought. Making her way up the near by stairs, she found the Dean's office on the third floor of the school. She walked up to the secretary, a young woman in her late twenties, with brown-red hair and a kind smile.
"Um…hello, my name is Kagome Higurashi. I'm new here and I need my class schedule."
"Of course! Just a minute please," she said kindly as she opened a file drawer and began flipping through papers.
"Higurashi, Kagome…" she mumbled. "Ah! Here it is!" she said with a smile, handing a list of classes to her.
"Thanks" Kagome said as she turned to leave.
"…Hey" said a voice right behind her.
Kagome jumped about a foot in the air before turning around to face a very pretty girl. She had jet black hair, much like her own, that was pulled back into a ponytail.
"Um..hello?" Kagome said, not knowing what else to say.
"Hey my name is Sango, you're new here right? Sorry I scared you." She said.
"Oh, um yeah, I'm new, it's alright, I just didn't know anyone was behind me." Kagome answered.
Sango motioned for Kagome to follow her, and not knowing what else to do, Kagome complied.
"If you don't mind, can I see your schedule?" Sango asked.
"Sure," kagome replied, handing her the sheet of paper.
Sango glanced quickly down the list and smiled.
"Well, I would like to congratulate you on getting all of the hardest teachers your first semester." Sango began with utmost sarcasm, "but if it makes you feel any better, it's still not that hard, you just have to actually pay attention in class. We have 5 of our 7 classes together and the same break though! That's lucky!"
Kagome smiled, she really liked this girl, and something about her made her feel comfortable even at this foreign school. She could definitely tell that they were going to be good friends.
"Here's our first class, AP World History with Mrs. Hakashura." Sango said stopping in front of a fair sized class room.
"Don't be too intimidated by the idiots." Sango warned.
"Huh, what do you mean?" Kagome asked.
Just then a dark haired boy, who just happened to be very attractive, walked up to Sango.
"You'll see." Sango said bitterly.
"My dearest Sango, how lovely you look today." The boy said to her.
"Save it Miroku." Sango said, trying to walk around him, but to no avail.
Glancing to the side, Miroku spotted Kagome, and turned to face her.
"Ah, a new girl, and a beautiful one at that." He said. "I would like to ask you a question."
"Really? Umm…what?" Kagome asked.
Miroku smiled and began to say "Would you like to possible go--" before getting cut off by a very angry Sango.
"Miroku, you pervert! She just got here and you're already hitting on her. Kami will you ever learn!" Sango yelled at him, dragging him away from Kagome and to his seat.
"But Sango, you know it's only you I want," Miroku said with a falsely Innocent look on his face.
"I know what you want Houshi, and it is not something I want to be a part of." Sango retorted.
Walking back to Kagome, Sango smiled sweetly before taking her to the front of the room towards the teacher.
"Sorry about that, it's hard to control him sometimes." Sango said before shooting a glare at Miroku, who in return, only shrugged.
"Don't worry about it." Kagome replied, she thought Miroku was fairly funny actually, and there had been a boy at her old school who acted a lot like him, so she was sort of used to his perverted nature.
Kagome walked the rest of the way up to the teacher's desk and gave her the schedule and a note.
"Ah, yes, Higurashi Kagome, welcome to Sakura High." Mrs. Hakashura said. She was a little, middle aged woman with brown hair and piercing blue eyes. "Please give an introduction to the class before you sit down so the students can know who you are."
"Alright." Kagome answered, not too happy about being put in front of about 25 students, at least it was a small class, right?
"Class! Settle down, a new student would like to introduce herself." Mrs. Hakashura said. After the class quieted down, she motioned for Kagome to go ahead.
"Um, Hi, my name is Kagome Higurashi, I just moved here from a small town outside of Tokyo…and uh..I'm looking forward to meeting you all." Kagome stumbled, not knowing what to say.
'Wow. I just sounded intelligent' she thought miserably.
"Very nice Kagome, now please take your seat next to Mr. Takahashi." Mrs. Hakashura said, pointing to a boy sitting in the back corner.
'Oh my God' Kagome thought.
The boy she had pointed to had to be the most gorgeous guy she had ever seen. He had long silver hair that reflected the light along with two of the most beautiful amber eyes that she had ever seen. His body was well muscled, she could tell, even though he wore a loose shirt with "Green Day" written on it. (A.N. sorry peoples. I love me some green day lol) Kagome blushed slightly as she made her way to the back of the class and sat next to him.
"Hey, what's up, my name is Inuyasha," he said.
Kagome nearly fainted. This guy, who was obviously popular, hot, and smart (AP class remember) was talking to her, a new girl that no one knew.
"Um…hi!" she said smiling.
He smiled a tiny smile back and then focused on the teacher. As much as Kagome wanted to pay attention, she just couldn't. She was so tired and the subject of the American Revolution was just plain boring to her today. ((Yeah, I'm mad at my world Civilizations teacher right now. So I'm making everyone hate the class lol)) After what seemed like a life time (but was really just an hour) the bell rang. Kagome got up and stretched, grabbed her bag, walked up to Sango, and the two got out of the class as fast as they could.
"God I hate that class!" Sango said exasperated.
"Is it always that boring?" Kagome asked.
"You betcha." A voice came from the side. It was Inuyasha! "See you around Kagome." He said before walking off in the other direction. Kagome just stared after him.
"Hello! Earth to Kagome!" Sango said, waving a hand in front of Kagome's face to get her attention.
"Oh, uh, sorry." Kagome said, still slightly distracted.
"I know, I know, Inuyasha is cute, but come on, you don't have to drool over him! He's not that great." Sango said, laughing at Kagome's spacey expression.
"You know him well?" Kagome asked.
"Kind of, Miroku and I are good friends, believe it or not, and Miroku is good friends with Inuyasha, so I know him as a mutual friend." Sango explained.
"Speaking of the letch." Sango said as Miroku found his way to Sango's other side.
"Hello girls." Miroku said happily, winking at Kagome.
Kagome had no idea what was happening, but all the sudden Sango stopped dead, her face turning redder by the second. And then she saw it. Miroku was firmly and obviously groping Sango's ass. Sango spun around, smacked the boy, and screamed loud enough for all of Tokyo to hear
"Miroku you ass! How many times do I have to tell you to keep your hands off my butt!"
"I'm sorry Sango I couldn't resist" Miroku said, rubbing the red mark on his face.
Sango sighed deeply and Kagome chuckled.
"Don't encourage him." She said to Kagome, which only made her smile wider.
Kagome knew that there was definitely something more going on between the two of them. She would just have to see. As for her, she had been right earlier, this was going to be a very interesting year.
