Deep in the dark woods there was a commotion about. A kid hanyou ran as fast as he could, claws scraping the ground for footing and leaving marks in the partially damp earth. Gun shots sounded close by and bullets flew past, each one nearly hitting him as they did so. Behind him he could here the voices of the people he was escaping from. He didn't stop to see how many there were, he just kept running.
"If he gets away the boss will have our heads!" Don't worry about getting him alive we'll just have to kill him!"
The hanyou ran faster he knew of a lake up ahead that if he crossed it he would be safe. He smelled the sweet salty air and quickened his pace not paying attention to the bullets that came past more rapidly than before. He saw the lake come into view and he ran faster, maybe he could finally get away.
Then three shots rang out; one grazed his ear, the second delved deep into his shoulder and the third silenced him forever
"Okay let's see" a teenage girl sat chewing on the end of her pencil and staring nervously at the paper in front of her "if YBH then the NEXT/NOW equation would be a" the girl stopped reading and stared again at the paper, then she groaned and put her head down on the desk. What kind of language are they speaking? She thought to herself. She lifted her head up and looked again at the gaggle of words that had seemingly been thrown together in no orderly fashion and without meaning. "The language they call math I guess" she said answering her own question, she lifted her pencil and bubbled in a random answer. Just as she turned the page the school bell sounded signaling the end of the day. The girl sighed with relief and closed her math exam, "thank god that's over now I can do more important things." Her brown eyes lit up as she remembered the new house she was going to be touring later that day. She had been looking for a house close to her school and had found the perfect one a few blocks up the road.
"Kagome come on already! Are you going to stand there all day?"
Kagome turned to her best friend and smiled "okay, okay I'm coming Shinitsu." She said.
Stuffing all of her books into her backpack Kagome followed her friend out into the corridor. Lockers lined the walls and people buzzed around getting ready to leave for the day, among who was another one of Kagome's friends who scampered up to them and fell in step beside her.
"Hi Akuli" Kagome chirped.
"Hey, Kagome!" Akuli chirped back "how was the exam? think you did well?"
Kagome smiled awkwardly but said nothing; instead she looked at her watch and gasped "oh no I'm so late." She turned to her friends "I'm sorry, I've got to go." Then she rushed toward the exit and out of the school.
That evening found kagome exhausted. When she had left school in such a hurry she'd forgotten to ask about yesterday's homework she missed and she'd had to drive back; now she opened the door to her car and stepped out onto the sidewalk that bordered a string of fairly sized houses. A woman stood at the front gate as kagome walked the pathway to the house.
"Ah you must be kagome" The woman said as she smiled politely "this way please."
The woman had on a red dress shirt with matching earrings that looked like jewels; she also had on a red skirt and a pair of red high heels. She reminded kagome of a cardinal at first glance.
Kagome followed the woman through the front gate and up the 6 steps into the house. Inside, the first thing that kagome saw was a short hallway that, as kagome learned, led to the living room. On the left stairs wound up to the second floor and on the right was another hallway that kagome assumed led to the kitchen. As she was led through to the stairs kagome took note of two rooms on the far side of the living room on the left side of the stairs that weren't noticeable from the hallway. The doors were open slightly and kagome saw white sheets covering everything, she guessed that who ever lived here before didn't want the trouble of moving the bigger items out with them. Upstairs was a simple hallway with two rooms on either side, one of which was a fairly large bathroom.
They were done in about a half an hour and kagome happily closed the deal. She said goodbye to the salesman and got in here car.
"Now to finally get some sleep." She said as she drove home along the black concrete road.
