Chapter 1: Aw Shit……….
The end of the day was approaching, as was the moment Kagome was dreading. She looked around the room warily, watching all the girls teeming with excitement and anticipation. They all crowded around the TV in the auditorium ((Man, I wish I had one of those in MY auditorium)), all awaiting the decision the stern, short, bald man on the screen was about to make.
"Ok, we have the bin of names here, all the applications for the prize. I will know reach in and pull one name out." The man, Myoga, reached in and pullout one slip of paper that had a name, address and phone number on it. He held it up in front of his face as Kagome trembled, hoping to god that it wasn't her name. "The winner is……..KAGOME HIGURASHI!" Sango, Kagome's best friend, plugged her ears and ducked under the table as her friend let out an ear piercing shriek of horror and began banging her head on the table, cursing fluently. Sango's memory flashed back to the morning, and that fateful 'mistake', as all the other girls began wailing and cursing Kagome to hell.
That Morning---------------------------
Beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep be…
The alarm went off when the raven haired girl laying in the bed threw it out the window, cursing the whole time. She burrowed back under the blankets and put her head on the pillow. Her house-mate, Sango, walked in ten minutes later to find a smashed alarm clock on the far wall, as it had missed the window, and a still sleeping Kagome.
"Kagome, get up. We've GOT to go to school today. We can't skip again or they'll fail us and we'll be stuck as seniors for ANOTHER YEAR!" THAT got the girl up, and fast too. She leaped out of bed, took a look at her room, and ran straight to the black doors of her closet.
Kagome and Sango were hard core punk-Goths, and both their rooms were very similar, the only difference being that Kagome had red ovals intertwined in the shape of an even sided cross on all four of her black walls where as Sango had a more……violent you could say, pattern on her walls, all black with what looked like red blood spatter sprayed everywhere.
Sango herself was wearing black baggy pants with red stitching and black and red chains swinging from every possible spot. Her blood red shirt read, in black writing, Touch Me, Pretty Boy, And Die, which pretty much summed up her attitude towards most of the guys in their high school.
"Hey Kagome? Did you REALLY have to throw that clock at the wall? That's the fifth one this WEEK alone? I'm going to start running out of them if you insist on throwing them every time you wake up." Sango was getting impatient with her friend, wanting nothing more then to get to school, which was a big surprise considering she detested everything about the place. She was really looking forward to that contest that was going on and she wanted to see how it ended.
"Oh, SORRY Sango, but I never seem to get it through my head that throwing things at 6:30 in the morning that annoy you is a bad thing." Kagome shot back, struggling with her shoes. Sango didn't miss the sarcasm in her voice as Kagome finally got the shoe on her foot before realizing that it was on the wrong one. Cursing again, she pulled it off and placed it on the right foot, shoving her foot into it like she wanted to kick a whole in the ground, although Sango didn't doubt that was just what she wanted to do.
"Fine, fine. I'm ready to go. I actually did my homework last night, no thanks to you, and its sitting in my backpack ready to be handed in."
"Whoopde fuckin do for you. Know lets hurry! I don't WANT to be in detention today!"
"But why not? Detentions always much funner then class!" Kagome exclaimed, pulling on her bag. Her clothes were similar to Sango's although she wore a black shirt that said, in neon green letters 'Every Day I think People can't get any stupider, and every day I'm proven horribly horribly wrong!' Her pants were black withneon green stitching and green chains instead of red, but other then that, they looked quite a bit alike, from the heavily black and red eyelids to the black lipstick to the black nail polish, although Kagomes hair was black while Sango's was a dark brown and Sango's face was more angular. They walked out the front door of the house they both shared and into the garage where Kagome and Sango parked their cars. They opted for Kagome's car, a sleek 2005 Mustang GT, black with blue flames trailing down the side, and drove out the driveway and onto the freeway centered right in front of the house.
"Ya know, I have no idea why we're even going to school today. I mean, hat is there to it besides a new way to torture us?" Kagome broke the silence, looking at Sango. Little did the innocent miko know that Sango's plan was well under way, and had started with a simple phone call to an old friend.
A few weeks ago------------------
"Hello? Can I speak with Miroku please?" Sango spoke into the receiver.
"Sure. One moment. I'll get Master Miroku on the phone right away" The butler said stiffly, in that manner all annoying butlers had.
"Thank You" Sango had a dark though for one fleeting instant involving Miroku and that lecherous hand before said letch came on the phone.
"Hello, Sango dearest. How can I help you?" said a melodic voice on the other end. Sango growled. "Well, for one, you can and will stop calling me dearest. Now, I have a plan for you, to get Inuyasha……" And Sango continued telling her plan to the monk on the other side, who was grinning broadly at the end of the conversation. Now all he needed to do was convince Inuyasha and Kikyo that it would be fun and interesting to partake, and he might even get rid of Inuyasha's current girlfriend for good. Not that Miroku minded. He disliked Kikyo with a passion, and this was his chance to get rid of her once and for all.
At School----------------------
Kagome was still trying to wake up when she walked in the door.
"Miss! Can you come over here please? We would like you to sign this for us! Your name, number, addresses………..THANK YOU! Your name will be entered into the contest." The overly cheerful prep was beginning to get on Kagome's nerves as she walked away, and right into Sango, who was grinning and struggling to hold back a laugh. Kagome's brain took a few moments to register what the girl had said, then another to put two and two together. She gasped and looked at Sango.
"What was that! A CONTEST! AW HELL NO! GIVE ME BACK THAT DAMN SLIP!" Kagome yelled running back over to the sign up area. Behind her, Sango cheerfully shook her head. A little scared of the consequences, she shook her head no, fright in every line of her trembling lithe form. The shoulder length blonde hair waved wildly from side to side, and the blue eyes set into that overly perfect face were filled with tears. Kagome didn't give a damn.
"I THOUGHT I asked you something? Why don't I have that slip in my hands yet? HMMMM?"
"Um, well, I can't give it back to you. Once you're um name has been um entered, its placed in a box along with the others and shaken. I couldn't find your name for the life of me." The frightened girl said, reading every word from Sango's paper she was holding up. Kagome just grew more agitated and was about to get physical when Sango came up from behind her.
"Come now Kag. She's just doing what she's supposed to! You have no reason to punch her when she can't do anything about it! That will just get you in more trouble. And I bet you didn't even see what contest you signed up for! I bet you'll love it!" Sango's mood was just a little too cheerful for Kagome, and she turned suspiciously to the sign above the signups, and shrieked while Sango laughed openly.
"THERE IS NO WAY IN HELL I SIGNED UP FOR SOMETHING LIKE THAT! NO WAY! I CANT BE STUCK WITH THAT OVERATED BASTERED! SOMEONE WILL DIE IF I DO! HELL NO!" Kagome was ranting and raving, drawing shocked stares from those around them. 'they might have well have been on the stage in the café for all the noise Kagome was making' Sango thought, plugging her ear with one hand and dragging Kagome, kicking and screaming, with the other to their homeroom.
Sango threw Kagome into her chair, effectively shutting her up when she covered her mouth with her hand, and no amount of childish behavior would loosen it.
"Ok. Now, what would be so wrong with staying a month with Inuyasha in his palace now hmm? I see absolutely nothing wrong. He's a hunk, a good actor, and has an awesome body." Kagome stared at Sango as if she were crazy.
"Inuyasha is a stuck up, spoiled little bastered who gets whatever he wants whenever he wants it. He plays with the girls who fall head over heels for him, ignoring them one minute, giving them whatever they want the next, then casting them off as if they were an old, torn, worn jacket that no longer had any meaning what so ever, and in reality never did. He double and triple dates girls, and still, they never get anything out of it but maybe a good time. He is a self centered, egotistical little bastered who deserves to die." Kagome finished and put her feet up on the desk, ignoring the teacher's complaints and Sango's smile. This was exactly what she wanted to hear from her, and Sango knew that if her friend ever found out about this plot, she would never hear the end of it.
that afternoon-------------------------
Although Kagome knew there was a slim to nothing chance of being chosen, there was still that one little sliver of a chance, and that had her hackles raised, snapping at innocent bystanders and cussing them out. Sango refused to drop the amused smile, and Kagome's chains had become weapons that had people not only skirt her in the halls, but back away, completely and utterly afraid for their lives. She headed to the auditorium at the end of the day, as were all the kids instructed. Kagome heard the announcement and flicked the speaker off before walking out of her last period, P.E., and going straight to her destination, and her doom.
"Have you heard? Kagome is in the contest! She is so pissed! I still don't know why though? Inuyasha is the hottest guy around! I mean! Aren't those little puppy ears so cute!" Kagome heard this, and her miko powers began to go out of control. Very few people knew of mikos and hanyous and demons, but Kagome knew of them, all of them, and she knew Inuyasha was a hanyou, that his half brother, who looked more like a girl then anything else, was a full demon, and his little sister Rin was a Miko. A very odd and confusing family. Kagome herself was a miko, and a very powerful one at that. She once lost control of her powers and sent a boy who had decided to grope her in the 6th grade to the hospital for a few days. ((Anyone want to take a guess at who?))
Kagome sat down beside Sango and watched nervously as the girls began to get all excited and jumpy.
"Are you sure they aren't on anything Sango?" Kagome asked, looking at the girls.
"No, I never really was sure. They always seem to be jumpy an giggly, and it scares me." Sango shuddered once, then turned her attention back to the TV. Her plan should be going into action any minute now. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaany minute. The TV person, who Sango recognized as Myoga, Inuyasha's personal driver, was just about to say something.
"Ok, we have the bin of names here, all the applications for the prize. I will know reach in and pull one name out." The man, Myoga, reached in and pullout one slip of paper that had a name, address and phone number on it. He held it up in front of his face as Kagome trembled, hoping to god that it wasn't her name. "The winner is……..KAGOME HIGURASHI!" Sango, Kagome's best friend, plugged her ears and ducked under the table as her friend let out an ear piercing shriek of horror and began banging her head on the table, cursing fluently. All the girls began wailing, cursing Kagome to hell and back. Kagome didn't care. She was to busy cursing herself to be busy with what the other girls were saying. Then the guy said something that made Kag shiver and curse even more loudly.
"Miss Kagome. We will be by your house at 9 tomorrow morning. Be ready to o, or we will throw you in the car. Thank You all for your applications. Good Bye!" With that, the screen went back to weather reports and Kagome's scream of horror and sheer terror could be heard throughout the city.
