...
I sat in one of the chairs in the principals office, waiting as my mother was filling out the papers.
After about an hour, a bell rang.
Students began filling the hallways, and I watched from the window of the office.
"Ok, Rin, here is your schedule. I'll send E-mails to the teachers. We are in third period right now. In this school we have eight periods, each fifty minutes long. I wish you luck." THe principal said.
I nodded, and left the office.
"Have a good day, ok?" Mom said, then left the building.
I took the time to look at my schedule.
1: English II
2: Science
3: Algebra II...
"Ok." I sighed, "Rom 101."
I looked around the three hallways.
There were signs, hallway one, rooms 100-130.
I walked down the hallway, until I reached my destination.
Once I opened the door, everyone's eyes were on me.
"You're tardy." A female voice sounded.
She was sitting at her desk, concentrating on grading papers.
"Miss Kimi, I think she's the new student." One of the girls said.
The teacher looked up, walking up to me, and grabbed my schedule, looking over it.
"Hmm. Kind of brave for you to show up on your first day." Miss Kimi smiled at me, "Just take a seat over there between Kagome and Sango."
Two girls raised their hands, telling me they were those people.
I took my seat, and the teacher began her lesson. "Today we will learn about Pythagorean Theorem." Miss Kimi announced.
She began writing letters on the board.
I sighed, copying down the instructions.
Once notes were all down, Miss Kimi handed out a two sided worksheet, saying we could work in groups.
I pulled out some notebook paper.
One of the girls on my left tapped my shoulder.
"Hey, you can join Sango and I." The girl smiled.
"Ok." I said, really not wanting to work with anyone.
The three of us combined desks.
"Hey, I'm Sango Nilan, this is Kagome Higurashi, and you are?" Sango asked, a bright smile on her face.
"Rin Takashi." I said, a small smile on my face.
"And, where did you move in from?" Kagome asked, while we worked on the first problem.
"Austin." I said.
"Wow, you were pretty far from here." Sango said.
I nodded, and concentrated on my work.
After forty-five minutes passed, the bell rang.
"What class do you have next?" Kagome asked.
"Um..." I looked at my schedule. "Sports and Outdoors."
"Me to!' Sango and Kagome chimed together.
"Well, I have Archery, Sango does Tennis, which sport are you going to chose?" Kagome asked, as we walked down the halls.
"I don't know, what kind of sports are there?" I asked.
"Archery, volleyball, basketball, tennis, and swimming lessons." Sango listed out.
"And we get to choose?" I asked.
"Yep." Kagome said.
As the three of us walked into the gym room, I was amazed at the huge space, plus half of outside was the gym.
The two introduced me to the girl coach, Miss Laura.
"Hello Rin!" She smiled brightly at me.
"Hi." I said.
Kagome and Sango split ways, going to there sport.
"Ok Rin, the sports that we have open are: Archery, volleyball, tennis, and swimming lesson; Are you interested in any?" Miss Laura asked.
I took another look around the gym, and understood why basketball was marked out; Boys played that.
"Um, I could try tennis." I said, knowing that if I chose swimming lessons, I'd be sitting out for today because I didn't have swim wear.
"Great." Miss Laura smiled at me, "It appears Sango has added you to her rare friends list. You can join her team. Come right this way. The tennis court is outisde." Miss Laura led me through the gym.
I observed the guys play basketball, with another female coach, giving them support.
I watched the person who had the ball, run towards the net, dodging his opponents like a pro, and soon, the basket was made. Afterwards, the ball was taken by the other team.
"Here 'S'!" The person shouted, throwing the ball, and it was caught by a taller person, wearing a plain white shirt, with black jeans, what was strange was, he had light grey hair that touch to the middle of his back, it sort of suit him.
He seemed to notice me, because as he stopped, he looked at me.
I shook my head slightly, breaking my gaze, and followed Miss Laura out the door.
When I was all set up for the team, I joined Sango's side, it was a two on two.
"Ok, the one with the black tank top, that's Kikyo, leave her to me, the one with a pink shirt is Ari, you take her swings ok?" Sango explained.
"If you two princesses are done with your Royalty Moments, may we please get started." Kikyo asked, after putting her make-up away.
Ari snorted, "Says the one who is worried about make-up on a sweaty game."
Kikyo gave a sarcastic look at Ari.
"Alright, let's get started, hope you can catch this time Kikyo!" Sango said, tossing the ball in the air, and hitting it with her raquet.
Kikyo easily swung her raquet, backfiring the ball.
The ball came my way, and I was ready.
I hit the ball, and it flew back across the net.
Before anyone on that team reacted, the ball hit Kikyo square in her stomach.
She groaned as she fell backwards.
I stood there with my mouth agape, as Sango and Ari were stiffling their laughs.
Kikyo got back up, coughing a little.
"I'm sorry." I said quickly.
"You'd better be." Kikyo said, right as the bell rang, and she limped away.
I was still frozen with shock, until Sango patted my shoulder a couple times, "You did great Rin."
"I didn't mean to hurt her." I said, slowly relaxing.
"Hey, anything she gets, she deserves." Ari said, as we put our raquets away.
"Now it's time for lunch." Sango said.
I followed after Sango and Ari.
They offered me to sit with them, and I accepted, trying to accept that I already had friends who were there for me.
We met up with Kagome.
"Hey, my sister was heading to the nurse, what happened?" Kagome asked, as we sat down with our trays.
I stiffened again, fearing I was about to lose a friend.
"Well, Kikyo hit the ball, and it was coming towards Rin, she hit back, and Kikyo missed the shot." Sango explained.
Kagome blinked a couple times, looking at me.
"I'm sorry." I said.
After a couple seconds, Kagome burst out laughing.
I was shocked, is it a good thing that I hurt a girl, more importantly, my friends' sister?
"You did good Rin, you did good." Kagome said.
A boy with black hair came up behind me.
"Sango, I see you have replaced my seat, by a beautiful girl." The boy said.
"Oh, I'll move." I said, standing up, but Sango grabbed my arm, and sat me back down.
"I meant to do that, Miroku!" Sango growled lowly.
"Oh, I see, I'll just sit over there then." Miroku said, and went to sit on the other side of the table.
"Be careful around him Rin." Sango said.
"Why? Was he your boyfriend?" I asked.
"Actually yes, but, in truth, he is a self-centered, pervert!" Sango said.
"Oh, ok." I said.
I looked over at Miroku, who was already showing the real side of him, flirting with Ari.
During the middle of lunch, another boy came to Kagome's side of the table, setting his tray down.
His hair was dripping wet.
"What happened to you?" Kagome asked.
"Right after I was all dried off from swimming lessons, Sesshomaru dunked me in the water." The boy said.
The boy looked similar to the one she saw earlier, except he was shorter, and his light gray hair wasn't as long, and he had... Little triangles on top of his head, 'That's a strange Tiara.'
The boy focused his sights on me, his eyes a golden brown.
"Who are you?" He asked.
"InuYasha! She's new, show a little respect." Kagome said.
"Yeah and I wanna know who she is!" InuYasha barked at her.
"I'm Rin." I said, stopping his rude actions towards my friend.
"Well, finally someone answers! My name is InuYasha, but if you try to touch my ears, you will wish you hadn't met me." InuYasha said.
Kagome reached up, gripping one of the little triangles, "Lighten up, will ya?"
I blinked, confused at the little scene...Those triangles, were...His ears?
Kagome released InuYasha's 'ear' and smiled at me, "He is a half dog-demon. You'll have to forgive him."
I nodded, surprised to hear, about...Demons?
"So, I guess we'd better introduce you to the whole table huh?" Sango asked.
"Yeah." I said.
"Oh, by the way, you, Kagome, and I are the only ones who know about the demon deal. Anyway, you've already met Miroku, and Ari, the two other girls That he's flirting with, are Yuka and Eri. The boy over here..." Sango turned to our part of the table, "The one with brown hair, he's Hojo, he has a major crush on Kagome, but InuYasha gets a little jealous..."
"I do not!" InuYasha cut in.
Sango ignored him,
I was broken from her voice, when I saw the familiar long silver hair, and the tall person passed out table, with a tray in his hands.
"Who is that?" I asked.
Sango spun her head around, noticing I wasn't looking at where she was.
"Oh, that's just InuYasha's older brother, Sesshomaru. I'd stay away from him. There are many rumors about him, but, I don't one hundred percent believe them." Sango said.
"Rumors?" I asked.
"Well, between you and I...AND Kagome, he is a dog demon too, but he is full, InuYasha says. InuYasha says that he and Sesshomaru are the only family. They live in a house together, Sesshomaru is sort of the grown up around there. He sort of has the right too, I mean, he IS the Senior, InuYasha is just a Junior, like all of us." Sango explained.
"What happened to their parents?" I asked.
"No one really knows, not even InuYasha will tell us, and no one usually talks to Sesshomaru. We heard that police tried to put them in foster homes, but Sesshomaru rejected. And since we know what they are, I think we know why." Sango said.
"Oh." I said.
The rest of the lunch time, I ate, and mainly stayed quiet.
The rest of the day, I had History, Choir, then Education of Training, where I coped with younger children.
When the day was over, Sango, and Kagome bid me farewell, and I made my way home.
My mom worked late, so it was up to me to prepare dinner, and get myself in bed in time.
As I laid in my bed, trying to sleep, I thought over my day.
I couldn't stop thinking about the strange Sesshomaru, and even InuYasha.
'Dog demons?' I think to myself.
I rolled on my side, and my sleep slowly came over me.
Tomorrow would be a good day like this one...I hope.
