Note: I don't own Inuyasha… tears… anyways, enjoy!
Chapter 1 :)
[Kagome Point of View]
I sighed as I packed away the last of my belongings, folding and bending the cardboard flaps just so. I looked around my now bare room, taking in my last few moments in my childhood bedroom.
"Kagome Dear!" My mom called from downstairs, startling me out of my daze.
"I'm coming!" I called back, heaving the box into my arms. As I walked towards the door, I caught sight of myself in the mirror.
I had black hair that cascaded down to my back and brown eyes that looked so deep and soothing. My petite figure was dressed in a simple blue sundress and black flip flops.
"Kagome!" My mother whined out again. I snapped away from the mirror and dashed down the steps. I walked into the kitchen, that table scattered with small boxes holding more fragile belongings.
"Honey, help me take these out to the truck," My mom asked and I gave a silent nod. I fixed my box so it was in one arm, and I managed to pick up another two smaller boxes from the table. I walked outside to the moving van and was startled to see my three best friends and Hojo waiting eagerly by the van.
"KAGOME!" Eri, Ayumi and Yuka shouted in unision, running for me. I smiled nervously as they huddled around me.
"Ohmigosh Kagome, we are going to miss you SO much!" Ayumi exclaimed.
"Yea, ditto," Eri said, a sad smile on her face.
"I can't believe you're going to a DEMON school," Yuka added. I was reminded of the nerve racking thought. I was moving away from my strictly human high school to a demon infested one. Don't get me wrong, I had nothing against them, but they did intimidate me a little bit.
"Me neither," I muttered, moving as non-offensive as possible away from my friends claustrophobic circle. They followed me like little puppies as I stashed the boxes in the van before turning to face my odd friends again.
"But either way, you should be excited!" Yuka continued.
"You get a fresh start and everything! Just don't forget about us, 'kay?" Eri added.
I nodded and my friends all hugged me tightly, Ayumi sniffling a bit. When they pulled away, they moved aside so Hojo could say his good-byes.
"Well Kagome, I hope life is good in Tokyo," He told me. He handed me a box with a box stuck on the top. I shook it curiously before opening it. I gave a nervous laugh as I looked at the book. 'Healthier You' was the title of the thick looking book I held in my hands.
"It's so you won't miss as much of your new school," Hojo said when I didn't respond. I smiled slightly.
"Thanks Hojo, that's.... sweet of you." There was a small silence before Hojo rolled back on the heels of his feet.
"Well I guess I better get going. I'm really going to miss you Kagome, stay in touch." I waved slightly.
"I will." And with that my friends and Hojo walked away. I sighed, relieved that the worst was over. I was going to miss my friends, but I was going to think about what was coming, not what I was leaving. I looked inside the van before walking back inside to finish packing everything away.
Once everything was in its proper place in the van, I got in the family car and slid into the back seat. My mother sat in the front, grandpa in the passenger seat and Souta in the back seat with me, his eyes directed on his PSP. I looked out the window as the car moved and my old home rolled by.
Out with old, in with the new.
[InuYasha Point of View]
I ran around the track at the local community center. I was pumped for the tournament next month. I couldn't wait to see the look on Koga's face when I ran past him.
At my high school, Tokyo High, track was everything. If you were the top of your division, you were at the top of the social standing.
Also, being popular had other props. Since I was a star track player, I had caught the eye of the most popular girl in school (outside of track), Kikyo. We had been together for a year now, and I was rather happy about it.
My friends and I were at the top, and had been since freshman year. And as a junior, I planned on keeping that in tacked till graduation.
Since I was a half demon, I was put into the demon division and had no problem keeping up (and passing for that matter) the full blooded demons.
I ran speed distances mostly. 100 and 200 were my domain. I shared that with Koga, and we were always competing to be the top... err… canine. Miroku and Sango were on the human track team, since, well, it wouldn't be fair to put humans and demons on the same team. Miroku was a mile runner while Sango did discus and long jump.
After I was done with my practice run, I grabbed my gym bag from the floor and decided to walk home as a way to cool off. I walked towards my house and as I walked past a series of small stores, something in particular caught my attention. I sniffed the air in anticipation and walked inside the store. I ignored the bell that rang as I opened the door and made my way to the back.
"Konnichiwa," A chunky girl said. I simply raised my hand in an attempt at waving. When I got to where I was going, I smirked. RAMEN! I looked at the different flavors on the display and thought carefully. I might be here awhile.
[Kagome Point of View]
"Kagome dear," My mom said and I looked up from the box I was looking in.
"Yea?"
"Would you mind running to the store down the street? It might take a while to unpack, so I just thought we should have some food here in the mean while." I nodded.
"Sure." I said, heading towards the door.
"Wait, I have a list for you."
I had to stop myself from groaning. Of course my mom had an organized plan, and for going to the store no less. I patiently held my hand out and as soon as my mom plopped the paper in my hands, I turned to leave.
"Be careful!" My mom called, and I walked outside.
I walked down the street and came to the small store my mom had described. I looked through the window oddly. I shrugged and continued to walk in. The bell rang over my head and I looked around.
"Konnichiwa," a short, overweight girl said from behind the counter. I smiled before going in search of the food. I looked at the list, barely noticing where I was going.
Eggs, Rice, Ramen, Chicken, Pop-tarts.
I looked up to see the sign saying: Ramen on the side of the isle, I looked back to the paper, turning into the isle. I continued to walk before I ran into something… or someone. I fell towards the linoleum floor and held my hands out to catch myself. I was startled when I never hit the ground. I looked up to see why.
There stood the cutest boy I had ever seen. He has silver hair as long, if not longer than mine, Golden eyes so bright I could easily get lost, an annoyed frown that couldn't even distort his amazing face, but the best thing was the ears! White and fuzzy I stared at them in wonder. I hadn't even noticed I was back on my feet, let alone staring before the boy said something.
"Mind watching where you're going?" He asked in an annoyed tone. I blinked a few time and looked the boy in the eyes.
"S-sorry, I was looking at my list." I looked around for it for a moment. The boy held out his hand and there was the paper. I took it and got stuck looking in his eyes again. The boy cleared his throat.
"Take a picture, it'll last longer." He said sarcastically. I frowned before smiling slightly. I snapped my fingers.
"Darn, left my camera at home," I retorted. The boy rolled his eyes before grabbing a box of original ramen and starting to walk off.
"Hey," I said. The boy turned around, the annoyed look still on his face. "What's your name?"
The boy scoffed. "What's it to ya?" he asked me. I wasn't fazed by his continued rudeness.
"I'm new to town, thought I might know at least one person." The boy looked at me for a moment.
"Inuyasha," he told me. I smiled slightly.
"I'm Kagome. Thanks for catching me by the way."
"Keh," he scoffed. "Just watch where you're going." And with that, he walked up to the register and left me to shop. I sighed and finished my trip, ready to get home and go to bed. I was going to start school tomorrow.
Joy.
So there was the first chapter… was it any good? This is my first Inuyasha fan-fic, so I would like your opinion and I would like to know if I should continue the story. Constructive criticism it welcomed :) R&R!
