Strange how things work out
The ground beneath her was cruel and unwelcoming to her frail frame. She tried to stand to only have her legs give out on her once again. Time came to a standstill, as she tried to regain her vision. The world around her started to blur, then evolved into meshing colors swirling around her as if she were in the lost world of Alice and Wonder Land. The war within her was almost at peace as she coughed out more blood from her raw throat. Her deep breathing started to even out, then, as she felt her breathe become slower and slower, images of her past begin to flash through her mind like a ticker tape. And the moments seem to fall in sequences of emotions. For every moment that was full of laughter, situations that occurred starting from her infancy. Her mother blowing bubbles on her stomach, her father throwing her in the air, her and her brother playing in the fields around their house, and every moment up to the present, that made her laugh. Then the next series seemed to be based on sadness, here too, starting in her beginning, her mother weeping over the death of her father only two days after she was born—as she held her as baby, the grandfather she never knew—her dear friend passing from an unknown illness, losing the family house to a horrific storm, here, again, up to the present. Mercilessly, the past haunted her through the emotional spheres, continuing on in chunks of fear, anger, joy, pain, love, elation, and finally peace. Finally, relief, as she let her body and mind ease, she let the thought of death satisfy her as the world around her closed into the gentle and welcoming darkness.
Miss Higurashi then placed a book marker at the end of the chapter, before closing the novel. She then took at seat at the edge of her desk facing the focused students.
"How, would you feel, if you were going to die right now, and have your life given to you in series of emotions rather then it all flashing at once?", she queries.
Hands shot up and Miss Higurashi points out one student, "Yes Sarah?"
"I would feel overwhelmed, with all these emotions attacking me continuously."
"Very good. I want you all to write three to five paragraphs explaining a series of emotions you would experience, including specific memories—be descriptive. Class dismissed."
The group of student's immediately rushed out to get home, the final school bell in perfect cue. Miss Higurashi begins packing up for the day, not noticing the new presents in the room.
"Kagome" Sango, a fellow teacher, and, also her best friend, calls out as she enters the classroom.
Kagome is too wrapped up in her task that she fails to hear Sango.
"Kagome. Kagome? LOOK JOHNNY DEPP"!
"Huh"?
"Three, two, one".
"WHAT WHERE"?
They both stand in silence.
"Sango that was cruel!"
"Well it's not my fault you're so gullible Kagg's", her friend smiled with smugly.
"I hate you."
"Love you too".
"So, did you come here for something, or are you here to torment me?" Kagome questions suspiciously.
"Well I came here, to remind you, of your parent/teacher interviews, which by they way you happen to be late for, I just thought that you should know", Sango said smiling to herself for her friends usual tardiness.
"Ooooh nooo! Kaede is going to have my head if I don't get there soon. I gotta go Songo ...Thanks."
"Bu-" Sango was cut off by the sound of the door slamming.
'Oh nooooo.' was all Sango could say to herself as Kagome left her dry.

The hallways were decorated with bright traditional Japanese scriptures and painting. All the lockers in the school had characters from old legends and the floors were made of the finest cherry wood. Cluster of students were found gossiping here and there. Kagome hurried to the main office where a group of impatient parents were waiting.
"Ah, Kagome, ye finally graced us with your presence", Kaede stood there glaring at Kagome.
I am so sorry Kaede, I am sorry everyone, I am Miss Higurashi, your child's English teacher, I will be more then happy to answer any questions you may have. Kagome rushed all in one breath.
One parent spoke up first. "Miss.. Uh Higurashi you're…pants. Are ripped…we all can see your underwear". The man said pointing in the direction of the rip.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………
"I tried to tell you Kagome, but you left so fast, I didn't get a chance", Sango said sipping on her coffee.
After the parent/ teacher interviews Kagome changed her attire and went for some coffee with Songo.
"Well you could have ran after me or something", Kagome insisted upon.
"Why and have you miss, one of the most funniest moments of your life, wait ,let me rephrase that for you, one of the most funniest moments of my life", Sango giggled to herself
"You were there just to torment me, when you said you weren't!", Kagome screamed
"Hey, I never said that, you're putting words in my mouth, I said that you were late for your interviews, I just never told you I was there to torment you too", Sango smiled.
"What a great friend you are", Kagome said sarcastically
"Well if you ask me, you shouldn't have been wearing hello kitty underwear."

"I have chest pains, it hurts to breathe, and I'm bloating up like a bull frog"
Dr. Takahashi held a bland expression sitting across a very, troublesome patient; he lets out a strained sigh and says, "You have gas."
"Bu-." The man never got to finish his sentence.
"You have gas"
"My ches-"
"Go buy Tums and get out!" he cried pointing to the door.
The short man wobbled out quickly, nearly knocking over another doctor trying to enter.
"Miroku it's about god damn time you got here! I have been taking care of your patients for five hours now, what the hell took you so long!?" Inuyasha yelled at his best friend.
Miroku not at all affected by his friend's rude behavior, "Well my dear friend, we have a lovely new nurse down in the cancer ward, I naturally had to welcome her."
"You were picking up girls while I was working my ass off!" Inuyasha said flinging his arms in the air.
"I wasn't picking up girls, I was picking up A (stressing the a) girl, there's a huge diff-"
"Miroku do you remember last week when I said I was going to kill you one day!" responded Inuyasha.
"Yes, why ?" Miroku asked dumb founded.
"That wasn't a question."
BAMMMMMMMMM
Another man enters the room looking at some papers not noticing the scene before him.
"Hey Inuyasha, I was looking at these papers and noti-." He looks from Inuyasha to Miroku lying on the floor unconscious.
"Oh god you have finally done it, you finally killed Miroku."
"Relax Shippo. He ain't dead…..yet"
Miroku body lay twitching on the cold checkered floor, nearly taking up the entire elfin sized room, with only enough room for the patient's bed against the wall and the desk with a little space to squeeze into.
"Is he going to be alright? Maybe I should run a cat scan to see if there's any brain damage!"
"Feh, I did him a favor "
"Inuyasha, you could have made him dumber then he already is!" Shippo cried.
"I don't think that's possible."
"Sure it is. You could have knocked the pervert out of him, then he wouldn't just be the idiot pervert, he would just be an idiot!"
"You make it sound like it's a bad thing" Inuyasha said flatly.
Sleeping beauty, Miroku, started mumbling to himself.
"You're right. What was I thinking, that would be welcoming miracle."
"Hehehe…"
Inuyasha and Shippo looked down at Miroku rubbing his chest and having a conversation with himself.
"Stop it……..no your bad"
"So much for miracles" Inuyasha bristled.
