THE GOOD NEWS, CHAPTER 1
On a regular, warm spring day, Kagome Higurashi, An 11th grade student, went on her afternoon jog. She had joined the school's track team, so she needs to stay in shape. She has a very slim figure, chocolate brown eyes, and jet black wavy hair that draped down just past her shoulders. Kagome ran around her small town at least twice. The town was a little less than a square mile. Nothing too special. She finally got home, exhausted from her run, and walked in her front door only to be greeted by her mom who was just getting ready to leave for work.
"Hi, Kagome." Her mom said with a smile.
"Hi, mom." Kagome said smiling back at her while breathing heavily.
"How was your run?" Ms. H said.
"It was the same as usual. Hot and tiring." Kagome said with a laugh while heading towards the kitchen to quench her thirst.
"We are getting new neighbors some time tomorrow; the real estate agent finally sold the house next door." Ms. H said with a smirk.
"I met the owners today while you were at school. They are brothers. One is a Demon and the other is a half Demon." Said Ms. H with an excited look.
"I invited them over for dinner tomorrow evening." Ms. H said with a smile.
"Yay! I can't wait to meet them!" Kagome shouted with a joyful expression.
"Well you're going to meet one of them tomorrow; he is in your school in the same grade as you." Ms. H said with a smile.
Kagome looked up from her plate and smiled. "I hope he is nice and sweet and sweeps me off my feet" Kagome said jokingly to her mom.
"Oh, you..." Ms. H said, laughing at her daughters antics.
"Well I have to get to work now, love you, dear!"
"I love you too Mom!" Kagome said while waving good bye to her mom.
'I wonder what they are like.' Thought Kagome. 'Maybe they will be cool neighbors unlike the Jaken family next door.' She thought while tapping her chin with her index finger. "Just have to wait and see then won't we!" She said while clapping her hands together with a determined look.
Kagome left her kitchen and made her way upstairs to take a shower and get ready to study for her math test in the Morrow. She grabbed black skinny jeans and a slim fit t-shirt and headed for the bathroom. She got undressed, turned on the hot water then evened it with cold till it was just the right temperature then got in.
About 30 minutes later she emerged from the shower and went over to her night stand where her iPod was plugged into her stereo system.
"What do I want to listen to?" She said with an indecisive look on her face.
"Oh! I know!" She said, and then she turned on some Metallica. It was the 'Ride the Lightning' album. Her favorite of all. She loved all types of music but thrash metal and melodic metal like Kamelot, Children of Bodom, Pantera, Metallica, Megadeth, and bands like that, were her all-time favorite.
"Okay... Time to study..." She said with an uneasy look pasted on her face.
"Okay, page... 267... Yup, that's it." She said as she began studying.
About 30 minutes into her mission, her focus snapped when she finally herd the intro guitar solo to Fade to Black.
"YAY! I love this song!" She yelled.
She jumped up and started playing the air guitar to it and singing along. Just then there was a knock at her front door. Irritated that she was snapped back to reality after playing her heart out to millions with Lars, James, Kirk, and Cliff, she stomped downstairs and opened the door. It was her best friend Sango.
"Hey girl!" Sango said while shooting her arms out for a hug.
"Sango!" Kagome shouted, excited to see her bestie.
Sango was wearing blue skinny Jeans and a plain black, slim fit, tee. She had dark brown hair that was fairly long and it was always up in a ponytail. Her bangs were cut so they were just long enough to rest on her eyebrows. Her eyes were the same color as Kagome's eyes, a chocolate brown.
"What are you doing here? I thought you were with Miroku and his friends?" Kagome asked with a confused look.
"I was but, I got tired of being around all men. All they do is play video games, hit each other around and... Well... Be men." Sango said, laughing at that last part.
"Well duh." Kagome snickered.
"Men can't connect like us women can." Kagome said with her index finger in the air like usual when she makes a point.
"Sooo Kagome... What are you doing?" Sango asked, shifting from her tiptoes to her heels with her arms behind her back.
"I'm studying and listening to Metallica. Do you want to join me Sango?" Kagome asked.
"Oh, I don't want to be a burden, Kagome. I just stopped by to say hi. After all, I do live down around the corner." Sango said with a giggle.
"Okay." Kagome said smiling at Sango.
"Oh! I'm getting new neighbors tomorrow! It's a demon family!" She said with excitement in her voice.
"Mom told me that the half demon boy is in our grade." Kagome said.
"Oh yeah Miroku was telling me about that. I guess he knows the guy from Facebook." Sango said, shrugging.
"Small world I guess." Said Kagome, shrugging back at Sango.
"Well I guess I'll be off now. I have to get some sleep for school tomorrow. Bye, Kagome!" Sango yells as she jumped off the porch.
"Okay, bye, Sango!" Kagome shouted as her friend walked off the porch and into the silence of the night.
Kagome then turned and went up to her room, shutting the door behind her.
"Well I think I studied enough." Kagome said, exhausted from her long and tiresome day.
"Time to hit the hay and set what awaits me tomorrow." She said, stretching and yawning.
She took a quick shower, got into her night cloths which consisted of sweat pants and a tank top.
"I love you, bed" She said while falling flat on her back, into the bed.
She switched the music to something softer so she could fall asleep easier. She put on 'After All This Time by Winger and drifted off to sleep.
The next morning she woke up before her alarm clock went off, which wasn't very unusual. Kagome was a very light sleeper. She yawned, stretched, and then she turned off her radio and headed for the washroom before going downstairs for breakfast. She took a long hot shower then changed into tight navy blue Jeans and threw on a slayer, Reign in Blood, t-shirt. When she got to the kitchen her mom was making pancakes and toast.
"Good morning. Would you like some breakfast, dear?" Ms. H asked.
"Yes, please." Kagome said while rubbing her eyes.
"How'd you sleep, Kagome?" Ms. H asked attempting to break the silence.
"Like a rock..." Kagome said smirking slightly.
"The demon family moves in today. I believe their last name is Takahashi." Said Ms. H with a questioning look on her face.
"I would tell you more but I can't remember their first names to save my own life..." Ms. H said while giggling.
"That's fine mom. I'll find out if I see the demon boy in school today." Kagome said, while smiling intently at her mother.
Kagome then left for school. She has the option of taking the school bus but, she would rather just walk and enjoy the fine morning weather. It was sunny, the birds were singing, and it was a little windy but, that never bothered Kagome. She loved the brisk weather. It works her out of any drowsy mood. Her walk lasted about 15 minutes before she arrived to school. She always took her time.
