AN: Another Inuyasha story! You can call it a high school fic, but it's going to be a
diffrent. I can assure you that.
Summary: A/U It's the middle of the school year, yet there's alot of new faces
around Kagome's school, but they are all connected somehow. What it is, or if it's
good or bad, Kagome has yet to figure out, as she sorts out her feelings, and learn

Chapter One: Not so Ordinary
The day started out so ordinary, that last thing Kagome expected was something odd.
She had woken up late when her cat, Buyo, paounced on her, ran all over the house
at least twice, changed, toss her school stuff into her bag, and hastily ran out, nearly
falling down the stairs trying to run down them. Yes, it was perfectly ordinary.
But it wasn't perfectly ordinary for people to have ears on top of their heads. Better
yet, dog ears. Yes, people do not have fangs, golden catlike eyes, and long silver hair.
And boys usually keep their nail short, and they certainly did not make them sharp.
Or was it natural? Either way, it wasn't normal.
And Kagome expected him to be down right pissed too. Yep, just ready to claw her
guts out with those nails of his. But no, he had to sit there gaping at her in shock.
What was so shocking about running into Kagome Higurashi, the perfectly ordinary
girl with a typical boring life who sucks at geometry? What he trying to do? Catch flies?
And why hadn't she noticed earlier just how cute his ears were?
"Anou..." Kagome couldn't think of anything to say. They boy's face then formed into
a scowl, stood up and grabbed his hat and put it back on his head. He then stalked off
muttering something about "stupid wenches".
Kagome just sat there and blinked. What's HIS problem?
"Kagome-chan!"
Kagome stood up and turned around to face Ayumi, Yuka, and Eri, her three best
friends. "Hey."
"Why were you on the floor?" Yuka asked, picking up Kagome's bag from the floor
and handing it to her.
"Thanks," Kagome mumbled. "I ran into some strange guy, that's all. He had dog
ears..."
"Dog ears?" Eri asked. "I don't know about that, but there's this strange guy who just
sent Hojo to a hospital!"
Kagome knew she should worried and panic, but she couldn't help but feel a bit
releived. No more Hojo giving her gifts, asking her out, NOTHING! But he was hurt,
and probably pretty badly if he was in a hospital. She was worried about him, of
course, but a bit releived.
"Is he okay?" Kagome asked.
Ayumi shrugged. "Dunno. But you should've seen it! It was amazing! That guy was
so fast! In less than a minute, he had Hojo knocked out, covered in bruises, two black
eyes, a broken leg, and several cracked ribs!"
Kagome winced. She definatly felt sorry for Hojo. She hate to be in his place.
"Uh...right...let's get to class..."
Her three friends nodded, and, with Kagome, went on to their homeroom, only
stopping to pick up books and stuff from their lockers.
"Did you see the new history teacher?" Yuka asked as they reached homeroom.
"She's old, and missing an eye!"
"Is that so?" Kagome said, about to walk over to her seat, but stopped when she
noticed a fidgetting girl she had never seen before in her seat, her bookbag sitting on
the desk.
"Anou...excuse me," Kagome said to the girl, but the girl jumped and started
muttering.
"Errr...this your seat? Sorry, I'll go to another seat," she mumbled, who's eyes
constantly moving from Kagome to the door. She stood up, but Kagome shook her
head.
"No, it's okay," Kagome said, settling her bookbag down on the table next to the girl.
"I sit there all the time anyways." She looked around for Ayumi, Yuka, and Eri, but
there was no sign of them. "Crap, where'd they go?"
"Who?" the girl asked, curiously, her earlier uneasiness forgotten.
"My friends," Kagome answered absently. "Oh well, I'm Kagome Higurashi." she
said, grinning at the girl.
"Sango," the girl grinned back.
"So, you're new, right?" Kagome asked. "Is that why you looked so nervous?"
"Yes, I'm new," Sango asnwered. "But it isn't why I'm nervous. I'm more nervous for
my friends..."
"Firends?" Kagome blinked. She never thought Sango would make friends so fast.
And more than one at that!
"Yeah, they're new here," Sango said. "Those bakas are already in trouble."
"Really? They must be the mischeivious type," Kagome muttered.
"Well, you can consider Miroku that. Inuyasha's just grouchy," Sango shrugged.
"Miroku's a pervert, and Inuyasha just likes to beat people up."
Kagome blinked again. "You must have strange friends..."
Sango shrugged. "My whole family and all my friends are strange somehow. It's no
big deal."
"Mmm," Kagome opened her bookbag to take out the needed items. "My friends are
nice, but nosy."
"Inuyasha and Miroku may the most annoying idiots you'll ever meet, but they're
really nice in the inside," Sango said thoughtfully. "But don't let Inuyasha know I said
that."
At the moment the door opened and two boys walked in, one looked postively happy,
and the other looked down right pissed. And the downright pissed one was the boy
Kagome had ran into earlier that morning. His nose moved, like he was sniffing the
air, and turned to glare holes into her skull.
When the overly cheerfull boy spotted Sango, his grin widened and he rushed to her
side, and soon had her hands in his.
"Why, Sango-chan, so lovely to have you in my class!" he said, flashing a charming
smile at Sango.
Sango slapped him. "YOu've known for a week already that we have the exact same
schedule, you lunatic!" Sango snapped. She looked at Kagome. "Anyways, these are
my friends. That's Inuyasha," she pointed at the glaring boy, "and he's," she pointed at
the boy with a slap mark on his face, "Miroku the pervert."
"Sango!" Miroku gasped, in what Kagome thought was way too dramatic. "How can
you think so low of me?"
Inuyasha just glared at Miroku, and Sango slapped Miroku again. Kagome just stared.
"Anyways, this is Kagome," Sango said, motioning to Kagome.
Miroku just stared at her for a minute or two, and Inuyasha just snorted and looked
away.
Kagome was getting nervous with Miroku staring at her like that. "Eh...is something
wrong?" she asked Miroku.
Miroku blinked and shook his head. "No, of course not. Just never thought I meet
such a lovely young woman so soon," he answered, taking her hands, but soon let go
because Sango had smacked him.
"Miroku! Stay away from Kagome!" Sango snapped. "And keep your hands to
yourself before I cut your hands off!"
Miroku just nodded weakly, and rubbed his sore cheeks. "Sango! Have I ever told
you how hard you can hit? It makes me think twice..."
Inuyasha snorted. "....suuuuuuure..." He then muttered, "Like you even think."
"Miroku, just shut up," Sango hissed. "Before I find a creative way to get rid of your
leachery! You will help, won't you Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha nodded. "Mhm. For trying to poision me..."
"I wasn't poisioning you!" Miroku cried. "It was just a sandwhich..."
"How can you screw up on a sandwhich?" Kagome asked curiously.
Sango shrugged. "Ask Miroku. He's the master of screwing up on sandwhiches... but
he can make everything else."
"Am not!" Miroku cried indignantly. "I can make a decent sandwhich...!"
"Which you have yet to prove," said a deep, cool voice from the doorway. Miroku,
Sango, and Kagome jumped in surprise, but Inuyasha looked unfazed. The man who
spoke was tall, and looked somewhat similar to Inuyasha. "Inuyasha, Miroku, Sango.
I need to talk to you outside for a minute," he said.
Sango and Miroku nodded, Inuyasha just glared at him. THe followed him out the
door, and the exact moment, Ayumi, Yuka, and Eri came in.
"Kagome-chan!" Ayumi squealed. "You talked to them!"
"Huh?" Kagome was confused. Very confused.
"Those two guys!" Yuka answered. "The boy with the pigtail and the one with the
cool long white hair!"
"Huh? Miroku and Inuyasha?" Kagome asked.
"So that's their names!?" Eri asked excitedly. "Oooh, you're so lucky Kagome!"
"I am?" Kagome titled her head to the side. So she met them and know their names.
Big deal.
Ayumi rolled her eyes. "Anyways, the white haired one was the one that beated Hojo
up!"
Kagome didn't say anything and looked at her bookbag on her desk. Inuyasha came
across to her as a rude, arragont, egoistic, heartless jerk, but as Sango said, she was
postive that in the inside, he was really nice and caring. She noticed the look in his
eyes whenever he looked at her. They almost look...dunno...sad... But the question is,
why?
Did her face remind him of something he rather not remember?
~*~
The rest of the day went without going wrong. Inuyasha, Miroku, and Sango's
schedules were the exact same as Kagome's, which she found really wierd, but she
didn't mind. She learned that the man that wanted to talk to Inuyasha, Miroku, and
Sango was Sesshoumaru, Inuyasha's older half brother and they absoletly hate each
other. They had a new history teacher and a new school nurse, and a bunch of other
people Kagome had never seen before. And Inuyasha, Miroku, and Sango all knew
them well enough to give them pet names.
It was the end of the school day, and Kagome was packing everything she needed
and put what she didn't need away, thinking about the three new students. She had to
admit, they were a bit...weird...in a sense. Sango was a bit on the tomboyish side, and
was pretty violent around Miroku, especially when he was flirting with other girls.
Miroku seems oblivious to Sango's "jealousy", as Inuyasha had put it, and was indeed,
a pervert. Inuyasha, however, was quiet around her, and seemed to be almost
avoiding her. She had wonder how Miroku dealt with Inuyasha and Sango's violence,
and tendencies to give him black eyes.
Walking to the school door, Kagome passed Inuyasha, Sango, and Miroku together at
a corner, whispering among themselves. She felt like they were up to something, but
had no proof. Ignoring them, Kagome was about to exit the building when Sango
called out, "Kagome!"
Kagome stopped, and turned to look at Sango who was now right behind her. "Hello,
Sango."
Sango nodded. "So, are you going home?"
"Mhm," Kagome answered. "I need to finish my homework."
"Oh," Sango seemed a bit disappointed. "I was wondering if you were willing to work
on homework with us. We're a bit behind..."
"Well, since it's for studying and homework, I geuss..." Kagome murmured. It wasn't
a bad idea, actually, studying with her newly found friends.
"Great!" Sango exclaimed. "We were going to a cafe to get some food while we
study, but we can go somewhere else..."
Kagome shook her head. "No, it's okay."
"Really? Great!" Sango said happily.
~*~
The next thing Kagome knew, she found herself sharing a booth with Sango, Miroku,
and Inuyasha at a Cafe, books and papers spread all over the table, and a pencil in
one hand, and a milkshake in the other.
"Mmmm." Kagome stared at her history homework like it was pure evil. She was
supposed to give a report on what she knew on the Shikon no Tama, and all she
knew was that it was a sphere. Maybe she'll save it for home so she could squeeze
information out of her grandfather...
"Oi, Kagome," Inuyasha said suddenly. "What are you on?"
"History," Kagome sighed. "I hate history."
"Huh? History homework was dead easy!" Sango said, tapping her pencil against her
chin and eating french fries.
"I finished it in class," Miroku stated, and Inuyasha nodded.
Kagome groaned. "Great, I'm the only one who sucks at this subject! Can anyone
lend me a hand here?"
Inuyasha grabbed a book from his bookbag and shoved it into Kagome's face
wordlessly, before going back to his biology homework, looking as if he was resisting
the urge to rip his homework into shreds.
Kagome took the book and looked through it. It was a notebook, with what looked
like Inuyasha's handwriting, with a bunch of stuff about demons, and several pages
about the Shikon no Tama. There was also stuff about things like legendary weapons,
curses, legends, mikos, and junk like that.
"Where did you get all this information?" Kagome asked in awe, flipping through the
pages.
Inuyasha, Miroku, and Sango exchanged looks, before Miroku said smoothly, "You
can say, we're into history."
"Really?" Kagome asked, never taking her eyes off the pages. "There's stuff in here
I'll bet my grandfather never heard of! Kanna's Mirror...? What the heck?
Tetsusaiga? Tensaiga? What the heck are those...? Oooh, the Bone-Eater's Well is in
my backyard! Kappa of the North? Who's the Dark Miko of Mt. Fuji?"
Inuyasha snorted. "Would you stop asking questions if you don't expect an answer?"
"Sorry," Kagome muttered. "Why do you even have this?"
Inuyasha stayed silent for a moment, before he said gruffily, "Because I can."
"That really doesn't make much sense," Kagome stated.
"Whatever. Does anyone get number 16 on the math homework? I keep getting
diffrent answers..."
~*~
It was almost dinner time, and the group were full of food, milkshakes, icecream, and
soda, and not to mention they finished all their homework. Nothing much was
happening, except Inuyasha and Miroku were fighting over the last of the french
fries. And now Inuyasha was happily lounging on the booth he shared with Kagome,
munching on french fries, while Miroku was in dreamland.
"I have to get going soon," Kagome said, standing up. "My mom wants me home for
dinner, despite the fact I can't eat any more..."
"We'll walk you there," Sango said.
"I don't want to be a bother...."
"We live in the same direction you live in," Inuyasha shrugged. "You wouldn't mind
keeping Miroku over at your house, would you?"
Kagome blinked. He used to act like he was avoiding her, and know he wasn't. To
put it mildly, she was confused. Very confused.
"Inuyasha! I highly doubt her mom would let a male friend spend the night!" Sango
exclaimed. "Besides, what about our little....erm...reunion thing?"
"Keh," Inuyasha continued to shove french fries into his mouth. When he was done,
he collected all his stuff, and said, "Well, let's go!"
Kagome and Sango nodded and got up, and packed their things.
"What about Miroku?" Kagome asked. "We're not leaving him here, are we?"
"Let's leave him here," Sango suggested. "He'll live. If he doesn't grope anyone, he'll
be home in one peice."
"If you're so worried, we'll call you," Inuyasha shrugged. "Let's hurry up. It's getting
dark."
Sango smirked, and followed him out the door. "Oh? Since when did you care if it
was dark or not?"
"I don't." Inuyasha pulled out a five dollar bill. "Oh yeah, Sesshoumaru told me to get
some candy for what's-her-face. Should I or should I not?"
"Who? Rin?" Sango asked.
"I think you should," Kagome said. "It would be nice afterall..."
"Then I won't," Inuyasha stated, shoving the bill into his pocket and walking off.
Sango shook her head and followed Inuyasha. Kagome was about to do the same,
but stopped, when she felt a strange presence. She didn't know what it was, but she
knew it was coming towards her.
And fast.

The day started out so ordinary, that last thing Kagome expected was something odd.

guts out with those nails of his. But no, he had to sit there gaping at her in shock.
What was so shocking about running into Kagome Higurashi, the perfectly ordinary

"I have to get going soon," Kagome said, standing up. "My mom wants me home for
dinner, despite the fact I can't eat any more..."
"We'll walk you there," Sango said.
"I don't want to be a bother...."
"We live in the same direction you live in," Inuyasha shrugged. "You wouldn't mind
keeping Miroku over at your house, would you?"
Kagome blinked. He used to act like he was avoiding her, and know he wasn't. To
put it mildly, she was confused. Very confused.
"Inuyasha! I highly doubt her mom would let a male friend spend the night!" Sango
exclaimed. "Besides, what about our little....erm...reunion thing?"
"Keh," Inuyasha continued to shove french fries into his mouth. When he was done,
he collected all his stuff, and said, "Well, let's go!"
Kagome and Sango nodded and got up, and packed their things.
"What about Miroku?" Kagome asked. "We're not leaving him here, are we?"
"Let's leave him here," Sango suggested. "He'll live. If he doesn't grope anyone, he'll
be home in one peice."
"If you're so worried, we'll call you," Inuyasha shrugged. "Let's hurry up. It's getting
dark."
Sango smirked, and followed him out the door. "Oh? Since when did you care if it
was dark or not?"
"I don't." Inuyasha pulled out a five dollar bill. "Oh yeah, Sesshoumaru told me to get
some candy for what's-her-face. Should I or should I not?"
"Who? Rin?" Sango asked.
"I think you should," Kagome said. "It would be nice afterall..."
"Then I won't," Inuyasha stated, shoving the bill into his pocket and walking off.
Sango shook her head and followed Inuyasha. Kagome was about to do the same,
but stopped, when she felt a strange presence. She didn't know what it was, but she
knew it was coming towards her.
And fast.
