CHAPTER 1

She pulled her yellow backpack close and stepped off the plane. She felt the breeze blow her hair in wisps around her face and saw cherry blossoms fall gently through the air around her. She stood at the top of the stairs for a moment taking it all in. "This place feels so…" she stopped hearing her friends behind her. "Go Kagome" Miroku pushed gently, fear in his tone, "I want to get off this thing" he slung his bag over his shoulder.

She walked down the stairs and stepped a few feet away from the base. "It's beautiful!" she sighed, dropping her carry-on to the ground beside her.

"Feh, It's nothing special" she heard a grumble behind her. She looked up at the boy standing at the top of the stairs. His dark hair was blowing lightly in the wind, his arms crossed across his red shirt, bag slung over his arm.

"Oh Inuyasha!" she moaned, rolling her eyes "at least pretend your happy about this trip. How often do you get to study abroad in Japan?" she exclaimed throwing her arms in the air at the view before her.

A girl giggled to the side of her. "Sango…" she sighed turning to the girl "please tell me you're on my side with this?" she looked accusatorily at her friend.

"Of course I am Kagome! I'm just glad we got you to come at the last minute, but you seem like your happier about it than us" she laughed again turning from her friend to walk into the terminal. Kagome grabbed her bag off the ground and ran after her three friends.

They walked through the terminal together planning their first night in the new city. Kagome laughed along with them and paused for a second to admire them. Sango, her best friend in the world laughed with tears in her eyes at something the guys had just said. Sango had been the first person she meet at her new high school and had soon become fast friends, and soon with her friends Miroku and Inuyasha as well. They had all grown so close in the past year, best friends, as if they had known each other their whole lives.

Sango was the tomboy type, always laughing along with the guys, one boy in particular Kagome noted, as she glanced at her still giggling friend, who was holding onto Miroku's arm. Kagome looked at the blushing boy who was half laughing and half concerning himself with the gentle touches on his arm.

Kagome watched as he put his arm around Sango, letting it fall down her back…Kagome and Inuyasha cringed as a loud slap was heard. "You perv!" Sango yelled at Miroku, storming ahead of the group. "Sango you misunderstand me!" he started running after her.

"Feh" she heard to the left of her. She looked at Inuyasha. He was the person she had come to like last. When they first meet they had so many fights she couldn't even remember half of them, still, even though he was the one she had befriended last he was the one she felt connected with the most, like an invisible force in the universe had brought them together.

He slowly turned his eyes to look at her, arms still crossed as they walked along "you gonna stare all day?" he grumbled. She blinked at him realizing she'd been staring, "sorry" she laughed looking away.

She grabbled a handle of his bag and pulled it with her as she sped up to the others, dragging him behind her. He saw the blush on her cheeks as she turned to grab his bag and he followed behind her sadness in his eyes.

They stood at the baggage claim after catching up with Sango and Miroku. "Grab that purple one!" Sango yelled at the boys who were leaning over the side waiting for the girl's commands. They lifted up the enormous stuffed-to-the-max bag and dropped it next to her. They did this with several other bags and finally gathered everything up and walked toward the curb.

"Where are we staying?" Kagome asked Sango who had pulled out all their information. "Well, the class got split into four groups, luckily, we got what we requested and we're all together, and we're at…" she stopped and shuffled through the papers "Higurashi Shrines."
