Even in the cold rain.
Her backs against the wall.
As you ignore her calls.
Shes crying alone tonight.
Holding that knife tight.
Shes wheighing her options.
Do you still hear her heart beating?
Kagome repeated the words in her head over and over. She wrote that poem years ago. It gave her hope for some odd reason. She looked out the window to the clear blue sky. She sighed. That sky would never compare to the ones in Era she visited for what seemed like ages ago,' hurry up,' she thought anxiously,'don't let Mother be angry when I get home.'
" Squad Seven. Naruto Uzumaki. Sakura Hurano" There was a cry of joy and groan of annoyance," Sasuke Uchiha," There was yet another cry of joy and groan but from different people.," And Kagome Higurashi-Taishio."
" WHAT?" Sakura stood up enraged," There are supposed to be 3 man to a squad! Even so why did I get paired up with her! She will obviously slow me down."
" Why did I get paired with Teme!" Naruto yelled.
Iruka sighed," We had an odd number of students this year. Kagome and Sasuke are the best in this whole entire class and you guys are the worst so we are pairing you guys up hoping for a good result."
Sakura sat down embarressed. She covered her hands on her face hiding,' That bitch! I'll show her cha!' Sakura thought smirking evilly.
Kagome leaned against the wall stiffly. Her sensie was late. 2 hours late. That means she was 2 hours late. Her mother was going to be pissed. Might as well just be a dead prisoner walking. She bitterly shook her head.
" Naruto thats a bad idea!" Sakura said inwardly wanting to watch her new sensie fall for such a childish trick.
Naruto finished putting the eraser on the door and stepped down," If this guy was really an expert he wont fall for this then!" He concluded.
Sasuke scoffed at the boy's reasoning. Kagome shook her head again in amusement. She watched helplesly as the eraser fell on to this guys head. She let shock set in. Maybe this guy wasn't as good as she hoped.
" My first imperssion of you guys...are all idiots. Meet me at the top of the roof." He then disappeared in a puff of smoke.
She saw Naruto and the others head for the stairs and almost laughed at what idiots they were. She did a hand sign and disappeared as well in a flurry of bloody white rose pettles.
When Naruto came up the steps with his team mates behind him he saw the silver haired guy watch as Kagome lay down and watch the sky biting her lip in worry.
" Well now that you are all here." He began," I would like for all of you to introduce yourselves. Your likes dislikes and dreams for the future." He explained simply.
" May you please give us an example?" Sakura's annoying candy coated voice floated out of her mouth.
" My name is Kakashi Hitake. I don't really have any likes or dislikes. As for my dreams I don't have any," Kakashi finished and felt the glare of all his students," Hey pinky. Go."
" Right!" She smiled," My names is Sakura Hurano. My likes are," She looked over to Sasuke and blushed madly," My dreams are..." her blush continued and she began laughing like crazy," And I hate Naruto and Kagome!"
" Why do you hate Naruto?" Kagome asked slowly lifting herself up in a seated position. She hid her anger and waited for the reply.
" He is so spoiled and immature." Sakura said glaring at the now depressed Naruto.
" Hey Sakura?" Kagome said getting her attention," Get to know your team mates better...Oh and stop being such a dead whieght. I can already see us having to save your ass all the time. And if you ever speak of Naruto or anybody like that again I will take your toungue and feed it to the wolves with it still attached to your large mouth." There was dead cold silence at the threat that lingered in the air.
" My likes are Ramen, training,and Kagome! I don't really dislike anything and My dream? TO BECOME HOKAGE!" He yelled smiling. He looked at Kagome and gave her a thumbs up. She nodded in approval.
" I like nothing and dislike my brother. My dreams...To kill a certain someone and to restore my clan." Sasuke said glaring at nothing imparticular.
Kagome shook her head noticing it was her turn. "My name is Kagome Higurashi-Taishio." She began looking at the ground not wanting to make eye contact with anyone," I like Training, Vulonteering at the hospital, helping build orphanages, training with Naruto, and helping anyone I can with anything. I dislike Spiders. And as for my dreams...Honestly? I really don't think I deserve any..." She muttered leaving it hanging there.
' Fan girl, Ramen hyperactice boy wonder, emo chicken head, and selfless mysterious cloud gazing girl. Fantastic' Kakashi thought already feeling the headache that would probably stay for the next year or so.
" Ok. Go home get some rest. Meet me at the training grounds around 7. Dismissed." With that he disappeared.
Kagome disappeared aswell in a flurry of white bloody rose pettles. She apeared at the front of the house opening the door shaking.
" ROOM NOW!"
She whinced but ran to the death room or thats what she called it. It was four cement walls stained with blood and filled with weapons knifes and other things. She took off her cloths except for her bra and underwear. She slid to her knees putting her hands and head on the floor in a submissive position.
When she heard the door open she fearfully said," Forgive me for being late Master. I was being held up with my new sensie."
" Excuses Excuses," Her Mother said getting the old whip of the hook," You were late. Again. What did I tell you i was going to do if you were late?"
She whinced at the thought. Again she would be beaten for her tardiness. She wanted her old mother back. The one that was sweet and kind but that mother didn't exist here. Neither did Souta or Gramps. She bit her lip feeling the white hot pain as the whip hit. Not once since she lived here had she cried out. Tonight would be no different. Her pain was going to go unnoticed again while she repeated the poem that gave her a little glimpse of hope. She was going to be strong.
