I'm just chillin' in my AP Japanese class diagonally from my best friend Sango, who is diagonally from my other best friend, Miroku. That means Miroku is next to me, but there's a seat in between us that's open and one in front of me that's open. We've already taken the test, but it's October, so we are going to get A's in that class all year. Right now, however, Sango is fighting with Miroku. They have the hots for each other.
"Miroku, I swear, if you don't stop touching Kagome's and my asses, I'll kill you." She got close to his face.
He planted a small kiss on her lips, and ran behind the teacher's desk.
Speaking of the devil, Mr. Myoga walked into the room, two new students trailing him, both with white hair. They're both kinda cute I guess. I look over to Sango as she mouths 'they're so hot'. I just roll my eyes and laugh.
"Miss Higurashi, please sit on the chair, not the desk." I jumped off the desk and into the chair. "Miroku, get out from under my desk. Sango, stop trying to destroy another student. Miroku, stop making Sango want to hurt you. Out of the three of you students that took the test, you two are the worst. At least Kagome doesn't try to hurt people." Under normal circumstances.
Myoga turned to the rest of the class. It was then that I noticed what the two new boys looked like. One had small dog ears on the top of his head, a smirk on his face, and was dressed in a red graphic tee and dark blue jeans, with a black leather jacket on over it. The other looked similar, with his white hair and golden eyes, but he had purple lightning stripes under his eyes, his hair pulled back into a low ponytail and he wore light blue jeans, and a button-up white shirt. They looked better than Miroku, with his ripped black jeans and purple shirt.
"Now then class, we have some new students." Myoga stepped aside to let the one with purple stripes to the front.
"My name is Sesshomaru Takahashi-"
"And I'm InuYasha Takahashi." Piped the one with dog ears.
I looked over at Sango who whispered "And my name is Sango Taijia." We whisper-giggled.
The one called Sesshomaru looked over at us as if he heard us. I shut my mouth and looked forward whereas Sango just kept on. "Anyway, InuYasha is my-"
"Half brother. We're not full brothers."
Sesshomaru closed his eyes to calm himself. "InuYasha shut up and allow me to speak."
InuYasha snorted. "Oh please, you're so boring no one wants to listen to you."
Miroku raised his hand. "On the contrary, I find Sesshomaru quite engaging when it comes to conversation."
Sango and I both looked over at Miroku like he'd lost his mind. You could tell in his tone that he was joking. "Miroku!" I whisper-yelled at him. "Shut the hell up."
Sesshomaru smirked, but it soon vanished into his stoic face. "Mr. Myoga, we're done." Myoga stepped back up and started talking. I felt my pants buzz, meaning my phone went off.
I looked at it to see that Sango had sent me a text.
Oh my gosh, can you believe that we have Takahashi's in our school, let alone our class.
I replied back to her.
What's the big deal, they're people. –Kagome.
What's the big deal? Kagome, do you have any idea who they are? Do you even know who their father is? –Sango.
Nope, I don't know who they are. Should I know? –Kagome.
Kagome, their father is only the most successful business man of all time. He owns Big-Foot stationary and Banana Electronics. –Sango.
Oh, that's cool I guess. I'm not a big fan of bananas or fake creatures, but whatever. I'm sure Sesshomaru is a nice person. –Kagome.
And what about InuYasha? Hey, are you gone tonight? –Sango.
He seems a bit too cocky for his own good. And yeah I'm going. I have to go until five-thirty. –Kagome.
He does seem that way. And five-thirty? That's a bit harsh, don't you think? –Sango.
It is cruel, but whatever it takes. The time isn't what I'm worried about, it's KIKYO! She makes me so mad. –Kagome.
She is such a skank. I can't believe she is the protected one and you're just a guardian. –Sango.
It's whatever, not a big deal. I don't mind, it gets my mind off of you-know-what. –Kagome.
I didn't get to read her next message. "Miss Higurashi, Miss Tiajia, please put your phones away. You two are the worst when it comes to communicating. Anyway, let's find you two a place to sit." He looked over at me with an evil glint in his eyes. "There is one seat open in front of Kagome, and one open next to her. Pick which one you want."
All of a sudden, five girls came running at me. Four of them tripped over a chair, and three hurdled over to me, a chair following them. I jumped out of my chair and would've run when my feet hit the ground…if they hit the ground that is. They all hit me mid-air, sending me flying back into the wall. My head hit a shelf and that fell on me. The chair, which had gone with them, landed above my head on its legs, protecting my face from the wood.
The other three girls, Eri, Ayumi and Yuka I think, were all on top of me, complaining. "That hurt!" or "I broke a nail!".
"Okay, while I'm sure you're all hurt, can you maybe have this conversation while getting off of me." I gave all them all a look. When they glared at me, I glared right back at them and they complied. One of them, though, stepped on my stomach. "Thank you." I shoved the chair away from my face, and sat up. A clawed hand was in front of me.
"Are you all right?" Came Sesshomaru's voice from above me. "Please, allow me." I put my hand in his and he helped me up. Once I was up, his hand lingered on mine for a moment before he dropped it.
"I'm good thank you though." I gave him a small smile.
"Are you sure? You hit your head pretty hard." He lifted his hand back up and I soon felt his hand feeling the back of my head for a bump of any kind.
"Yeah, I'm good." His hand moved to the back-left side, and I felt a pang of pain. "Ow!" I shrunk forward, away from his hand.
He raised his eyebrows. "You're fine, are you? Just as stubborn…" I didn't hear the last part. He turned me around and moved my hair away. "She has a small bump. Nothing to be too concerned about I don't think. She should really go to the nurse though."
"Nurse? Nah, she's good. That head of hers is fine. I'm worried about the shelf." Came Miroku's voice.
"And you two are the worst when it comes to messing around. Kagome, go to the nurse, would you." Said Myoga.
I sighed. "Fine. Give me a pass and I'll go." He began writing a pass for me.
"Do you need someone to go with you?"
"I'll go with her." Came a voice from behind me. It was InuYasha.
"No, thank you though." I took the pass out of Myoga's hand and walked out of the room. I was vaguely aware of someone following me, so I hooked a hard right into an empty hallway and waited. The footsteps quickened in pace, and when they were on top of the hallway, I jumped on their back and wrestled them to the ground. "Who are you and why are you following me!" Then I saw the white hair and dog ears. "InuYasha? The hell are you doing?" I got off his back.
"You have some pretty quick reflexes for a human. You could pass as a decent demon if you wanted to. Could pass for a good half-demon too. I said I'd walk you, so it's okay." By now he'd gotten up from the ground where I'd pinned him seconds ago.
My face hardened. "I told you I didn't need anyone to take me to the nurse. I'm fine and don't even need to go to the nurse."
"Whatever. I just didn't want to sit next to Miroku." A devious smile formed on his face.
"What, do you not like him or something? Do you have a problem with him?" I said it in my most menacing voice.
He looked scared. "No, me and Miroku are best friends, just like you and Sango are. Not like Sango and Miroku though, I'd rather not kiss him and more."
"What? Why would Sango kiss Miroku?"
"Because girlfriends tend to kiss their boyfriends, don't they?" He gave a small laugh at the end of his sentence.
"Yeah, they do, but those two aren't dating."
He gave me a puzzled look. "That's what he told me."
"So, Miroku told you that he and Sango are an item?" He nodded and I laughed so hard I doubled over. His arm went around my waist. "I'm okay." I wiped a tear from my eye. "That's so funny. They like each other, but they're not dating. He lied to you dude."
He gave me a smile. "Yeah, sure."
"What's with the smile?"
"You don't call me dude if we aren't friends."
"No. I don't do friends with people I don't know, no thank you."
"How about dinner tonight, my place. You'll know me after that, won't you?" He winked at me. Yeah, no, I don't think so.
"Sorry, I have a previous engagement." I shrugged my shoulders and kept walking to the nurse when he caught up with me. "Why are you following me?"
"I told you I was going to walk you to the nurse, didn't I?"
"Yeah, but I told you that I didn't need to be walked, didn't I?" I took on the same tone as he used on me.
He gave me a look. "Well, I'm older than you, so ha, Kagome." He smirked.
""You know my name, big deal."
"Kagome Higurashi."
"You know my last name, big deal."
"You play piano like a boss, and you sing like a boss."
"Who."
"Miroku."
"I'll kill him, the traitor." InuYasha was still smirking. "InuYasha Takahashi. You're father…" What did Sango say about his dad. "You're father does something. Your half-brother is Sesshomaru." He was giving me a strange look. "What?"
"You don't know about my father?"
I sighed. "Sango told me, but I forgot." I kept walking.
"So you don't hate me because you think I'm a spoiled, arrogant jerk?"
"No." He gave a sigh of relief. "I hate you only because you're arrogant. I don't know if you're a jerk or spoiled." He pouted. "You look like a sad puppy."
He wiggled his eyebrows. "You wanna make me a happy puppy?"
I glared at him. "Hell no." I kept walking and he followed me. "Would you stop?" I turned to face him.
His face hardened. "Look, I'm just trying to be nice."
"I didn't ask you to be nice. I'm fine. I don't need your help, or anyone's help for that matter. Leave me alone. Please." I emphasized the 'please'.
He got a look of shock on his face. "S-sure. Okay." He slowly started to back away, and I turned back and started to walk to the nurse. Stupid brat thinks he can do whatever he wants to.
I reached the nurse, and I had a small headache, probably from InuYasha. "Well, well, well. What did you do this time?" Asked an old woman named Kaede. She was the nurse.
I smiled. "I got rammed by three girls and hit my head on a shelf."
"And you needed to go to me?" She gave me a look.
You see, I am a guardian. I go on patrols to protect The Chosen One, who happens to be a slutty cheerleader named Kikyo. I am the best guardian there is. Sango is a half-guardian, but she's stronger than normal guardians. They call on me to guard Kikyo because there are bad people called Souleaters. They want to come to power, and the only way to do that is to use The Chosen One. They would have to sacrifice her and take her soul, hence the name Souleater. I wouldn't mind sacrificing Kikyo, if it weren't for the fact that they would get enough power to destroy the world in one second.
Kaede has seen me in action. She's one of the elders that decide the schedule, and more important, they see who the Chosen One is. They've only been wrong once, and that was a long, long time ago.
"Was it that old Myoga?"
"No, we have two new kids, and the older one, Sesshomaru, suggested it."
"Ah, yes. I know of those two."
"So do all the girls in my class, or more like they know who their father is." I rolled my eyes.
"Ah, yes. A lot of girls in this school want to be rock stars or models."
"What does their father have to do with music or modeling?"
"He owns a record label and modeling agency. That's what those professions have to do with him." She laughed. "Now then, I'll write you a pass." She got a pencil out and wrote me a pass on one of those yellow pads. "Here you go. See you tonight."
"Thank you, and see you then." When I reported for a shift, I went to our headquarters, and then went over to Kikyo's mansion in a sketchy black van. Three people patrolled outside her house, while one person was inside, just wandering. Sango and I are the only two guardians that are her age, but they know we hate each other, so they don't dare put us in the same room for a few hours.
My shifts are normally long. The longer they are, the more threat the Souleaters pose to her, or the more activity we've picked up from them. Tonight my shift was from five to five, and then I barely had time for a small nap until I had to go to school the next morning. I know it's rough, but they pay me, and I like sling-shotting and momma needs ammo, and I was kind of born to do this, so yeah.
As I walk through the door, I see groups of people sitting together. I give Myoga my pass, and go sit next to Sesshomaru, and behind InuYasha. "Miroku, what are we doing?"
"Some partner activity. You want to be partners?"
"Why don't you ask Sango?" He winked at me. "No." He looked at me with a look that said 'really?'. "No."
"So whose partner are you going to be?"
"If she will have me, I would like to be her partner." I looked over at the person who said it.
"Sure, why not." Sesshomaru nodded. "What are we even doing?"
"We are supposed to do a history on ancient demons who stole the souls of the living, Souleaters as it were."
"Really?" I looked over at Sango, who was looking right back at me.
"Yes. Why, are you familiar with the topic?"
"Only a little." I smiled over at Sango who laughed.
"Alright Miroku, let's do this." Said InuYasha.
"Sorry my friend, I'm already spoken for. Sango here is my one and only."
"Then why did you ask Kagome not minutes ago?" Asked Sango, a little annoyed at his antics. I couldn't wait until I needed a favor from him that would be far-fetched, just so I could hold his little lie over his head.
Something hit me. "If this is Japanese, why are we doing history?"
"Just as sort of a beginning assignment." Said InuYasha. "Who am I supposed to pair up with then?"
"Well, Myoga said we could have a maximum of three people, so you could join Kagome and Sesshomaru." Said Miroku.
"Or not." I said.
"As much as I dislike this idea, since InuYasha and I live together, it would be less trouble getting together to work on it. How's tonight at seven, Kagome?"
"She has a previous engagement." Said InuYasha.
"And how do you know that, Yash?" Asked Miroku with a wicked smile on his face.
"I asked her out."
"You didn't ask me out."
"I so totally did. I asked you if you'd have dinner with me."
"You didn't say will you go on a date with me, so no you didn't ask me out."
He rolled his eyes at me. "Okay, will you go on a date with me?"
"Nope."
"There, now I've asked her out."
Miroku and Sango laughed at us. "Do you mind him latching on to us?" Sesshomaru asked me.
"If it's okay with you, it's okay with me." I shrugged my shoulders.
"Alright, runt, you're in Kagome's and my group. We'll talk about it tonight, get a small idea of what we're going to do, and we'll show you tomorrow, is that okay Kagome?"
"Good with me." I shrugged again. The bell rang, and everyone left. I was talking to Sango in the hall while we were at her locker.
"So, you left two professions their dad is into." I told her.
"Oh yeah, he does modeling and singing. Oh, maybe you should meet him!"
"Oh my gosh! I won't try!" I jumped up and down in fake excitement. "No way Sango, you know me and what I do. You do it too though."
"Yeah, only half the time though. And I'm nowhere near as good as you are." She got her book out of her locker and shut the door. "So, what time does it start?"
"Five."
"They're making you do a twelve-hour tonight? It's Wednesday, don't they care?"
"Only about Kikyo." I rolled my eyes.
"I swear they got it wrong again."
"So who do you think it is Sango?" I laughed.
"Anyone but her." She laughed too, and we went to physics, which has two new kids in it.
End of the first chapter. Anyone get me trying to copy J.K. Rowling's Deatheaters with Souleaters? Yeah, that's how mean they're going to be, however, Lucious Malfoy is not one of them. Bye-bye.
