*Kagome's POV*

"Bye mom!" I yelled over my shoulder as I hopped out of the blue car. I swung my green backpack onto my shoulders.

"Have a good day at school, Kagome!" My mom smiled warmly at me before I slammed the car door shut.

I walked nervously to the front office. I swung open the door, which jingled in response. I eyed the red bells hanging on the door suspiciously before walking it. I spotted a tall lady behind a desk. She sent me a acknowledging smile.

"You must be Kagome." She spoke happily as she printed my schedule out. She handed it to me with a acknowledging smile. "The 10th grade hall is in the 400 building."

I nodded thanks to her as the bell rung. I dashed out of the front office, not wanting to be late on my first day of school and followed the herd of tall people. A few people,including me, broke off from the crowd and walked to the 10th grade building. I scanned over my schedule and groaned quietly to myself.

'Math for first period? What a great way to start the day off.' I thought bitterly as I trod around the poky cluster of students in the hallway near Room 405. I noticed the door was propped open and quietly walked inside, already feeling nervousness bury a pit in my stomach. There were small clique of students scattered around the room but there was no teacher to be seen. I shrugged it off, thinking the teacher would return soon. My eyes scanned the room briefly before I took a seat in the middle row. I felt many pair of eyes staring at me, making me want to sink down and wish I could disappear.

I felt a pair of small fingers tap on my shoulders, causing my body to jump in surprise. I turned around to face a girl that had brown hair tied up and light pink make up applied. She was wear a pink shirt that had a panda on it and blue skinny jeans.

"Are you the new girl, Kagome?" She questioned politely.

"Yes. How do you know my name?" I asked slowly, eyeing her suspiciously.

She laughed sheepishly with a relaxed expression. "I was requested to show you around on campus. I'm Sango."

I smiled, feeling silly of accusing her. "Oh. You already know who I am, so..." She laughed musically as I trailed off. Once she realize I wasn't to talk anymore, she faced herself forward again.

After a moment of quietude, I tapped on her right shoulder. She turned around in her seat after a short moment.

"Where's the teacher?" I couldn't resist to ask. Class was already halfway over and still no teacher.

Sango glanced at the clock. "He's always late and never on time. He should arrive towards the end of class."

My eyes bulged out of their sockets. "Really? Why?"

She shrugged. "I don't know. He's always been this late since the beginning of the school year, but no one questions it or turns him in for it. It doesn't seem to bother anyone anyways."

I gave her a weird stare. "Okay.."

Sango nodded. Suddenly her face lit up and said, "Give me your schedule. We might have more classes together."

I pulled my neatly folded schedule out of my pocket and handed it to her. I watched as she read it over, her eyes brightening as she scanned it over.

"We have Science and P.E together!" She exclaimed, handing me back my schedule.

I smiled in relief as I took the paper back. I folded it back as I thought about how nice this girl is.

"I noticed that all of your classes are in this hall, the 10th grader hall." She said slyly. "But, you don't look like a 10 grader."

I nodded. "It's because I'm not a 10 grader. I'm just a Freshmen that has advanced classes."

"Cool, me too!"

The door swung shut, causing the students to glance up in surprise. All conversations came to a halt as the students made their way back to their original seats.

" Yo. Sorry I'm late. " A middle aged man with grey spiked hair strolled into the classroom carelessly. He set his briefcase on his desk and faced the classroom.

"I'm assuming that's the teacher." I whispered to Sango. She nodded and rolled her eyes.

"We have a new student. Let's give her a warm welcoming. Kagome Higurashi?" He scanned the sea of students lazily. His eyes landed on me and smiled kindly.

"Hi." I said quietly, barely hiding the fact that I was sinking down slowly. I mentally cursed myself for being shy.

"Tell us about yourself, Kagome." He looked overall exhausted and looked like he wanted to take a nap right there and then.

I nodded enthusiastically. "I'm from New York. I like to draw and many people say I'm stubborn but I don't see how. I have a fat,lazy cat that likes to eat and get in my way."

Many people laughed at my last comment to my relief and I smiled. Sango gave me an encouraging pat on the shoulder.

"By the way, I'm Mr. Jones, your math teacher." I nodded in response.

"Turn to page 98 and-" The teacher's voice was cut off by the bell. He smiled sheepishly. "There's no homework."

Everyone, including Sango and I, cheered as we rushed out of the classroom. Sango and I unfortunately had to parted our ways when I reached to my second period, writing. Once again, I walked into the room and had to introduce myself. I felt slightly annoyed at having to repeat what I said.

I was sitting next to a girl that looked like she was my twin, to my startlement. Her pale complexion and small frame mirrored mine. Her dark, brown hair was long, if not longer than mine, and her eyes seemed a shade darker of brown than mine. The only main difference between us, besides her slightly sharper features and defined dark eyebrows, was our clothes. She wore a plunging red v-neck and suffocating tight jeans. I had wore a baby indigo shirt and barely tight skinny jeans. Just by the way she glanced at my figure, I received bad vibes radiating off of her. Not really wanting to get in the wrong crowd of people, I didn't bother talking to her.

Class seemed to tick by painfully slowly, as I was seated right besides my twin. I couldn't wait for this class to be over and move onto science so I could be comfortable with Sango. My leg constantly twitched up and down as impatience sunk into my bones slowly over time.

Right before the bell rung, the teacher assigned homework. I sighed in disappointment while everyone groaned. "Write one paragraph about yourself. It will be graded on correct use of grammar and spelling." I took a mental note of it as I shoved my supplies into my bag. Everyone flooded out of the classroom, onto third period.

Relief flooded through me once I realized it was Science, which I have Sango in my Science class. I walked to class with an extra boost in my step. I plopped down next to Sango, who was taking out her supplies. I mimicked her actions. "Hey, Sango." I said cheerfully.

She looked up at me in surprise. " Hey, Kagome. You got here quickly, for a new student. "

I grinned at her and bumped my chest, feeling my rare tomboy side come out. I winked at her. "I'm a quick learner." I stated with pride.

"Oh, I bet!" She busted out laughing and I quickly joined her. Some students turned around to stare at us with, what I assumed, annoyance. Not a moment later, the teacher walked in and we suppressed our laughter to small giggles.

I was thankful that the teacher didn't make me introduce myself. I half listened to the lesson as I looked out the window and watched the clouds go by. I already missed New York. A small pang of sadness flooded through me when I thought of Eri and Yuka. I made another mental note to text them when school ended.

"Kagome, please read the next section." The teacher's booming voice drew me back into reality.

"W-what?" I stammered, feeling my face turn red in embarrassment.

"Read the next section." The teacher repeated.

'When did we start reading?! I fumed in my mind. I opened my textbook pages and stared blankly at them.

"Page 209, 3rd paragraph down." I heard a faint whisper on my right side, the opposite side of where Sango was sitting.

I quickly fanned through the pages and begun reading out loud. Once I was done, the teacher mumbled a quick thank you before choosing another student as the next victim. I turned to my right to thank the person for saving me but I froze. It was the girl that looked exactly like me from second period. The bell rang,snapping me back into reality. The girl dashed out of the room before I could say a word.

"Rude." I muttered lowly under my breath as I shoved my supplies into my backpack.

"What?" Sango looked at me confused.

" Uh, when's lunch? " I quickly recovered myself.

"Now. Come on, Kagome! I'm starving!" She exclaimed loudly. I rolled my eyes and laughed. She took my arm and dragged me to the cafeteria, just barely as I had got my backpack on my shoulder.

I pulled a tray that had nachos and chocolate milk. I paid for it and headed towards a random table. I was yanked back. I glared slightly at Sango. "What?"

"What?" She mimicked my high pitched voice. "You were about to sit at the wrong table."

I looked at her in confusion. "Wrong table?" I almost started laughing. There was no such thing as the 'wrong table'.

"That's where the school's bad boy sit." She explained it like it made sense.

I raised an eyebrow. "So? I don't see a name on it." I started to walk towards the table.

She glared at me. "No, Kagome."

I ignored her and kept walking on. I heard her sigh and mutter, " Now, I understand why people think you're stubborn. " I smiled at my victory as she jogged up to me. I plopped down at the table and begun to dig in. Sango sat in front of me and dug into her pizza. I was halfway down when I felt a strong hand grip my shoulder. I saw Sango's eyes widen in alarm as she tensed up.

"You're in my seat, wench." A husky voice said behind me. I heard Sango gulp.

Update: Heyo! I just finished editing this chapter and it actually wasn't too horrible! I got quite a few more words in and I changed minor things around. Hopefully everyone is more pleased with this chapter. It has much more detail and it's organized better. I plan on editing all of my chapters, (I have about 35 Chapter, Ugh!) and switching some things around. It seems like everything is going way too quickly and I want to slow things down a bit. Thank you so much for reading this. Have a wonderful day! ~AA
