Panorama

Chapter One

Kagome stared outside of the window with dazed blue eyes, her chin propped on the palm of her hand while ignoring the teacher as she droned with the history lessons. Despite knowing that it wasn't a good idea to ignore her teacher, the first year high school student couldn't help but tune her out.

Not that anyone could blame her if they actually knew the truth. The truth that she had traveled through time and experienced Japan's chaotic past for herself.

When they had started on the Feudal Era in their lessons, Kagome had to stop herself several times from wanting to correct the teacher on certain events. How it wasn't the fault of humans that one event happened, but in fact was the work of demons.

But she knew better than to do that.

No one believed in demons since are they are seen as nothing more than myths, and so they wouldn't likely believe that she traveled through time using the dry well on her family's shrine grounds.

They were more likely to put her in a straightjacket than believing her words.

She already had to deal with the rumors of her being the "Sick Girl", which had somehow managed to spread all the way out her to this part of Tokyo. Adding on the title of "Crazy Girl" wasn't something that she was very keen on doing, and so she just kept her mouth shut and keep her words to herself; doodling the very demons that she had wanted to badly to give that credit to in the margins of her notes.

Watching other students running around the track, she didn't seem to notice how quiet the classroom had gotten until a book was suddenly slammed down on to her desk. Jumping up from her chair at the sudden noise, she swung her head quickly to the front and a look of horror blossomed on her face as she saw her teacher looking at her with a frown and a small glare.

"Ah I didn't realize that my lessons were so boring Higurashi, maybe we could discuss how we could make things more interesting after class." Ninomiya Saeko, her teacher stated.

Ignoring the snickers and giggles from her classmates, Kagome sighed and bowed slightly towards the brown-haired woman, who stood there with crossed arms and a frown. "Sorry Ninomiya-sensei."

Seemingly satisfied with that, the older woman started making her way back towards the front of the classroom.

Kagome quickly sat back down with another sigh, and looked down at the flyer that was on her desk. Her eyes traced the words stating deals that were available at the market near her home, and pouted.

Whatever the teacher had to discuss after class…she hoped it didn't make her miss the sale.

Tonight was Oden night!

Class seemed to fly by at that point, and soon enough classes for the day came to an end. Everyone dispersed from the classroom quickly enough, either making their way to their clubs or making plans with their friends on how to spend their time. Even the class recluse Mizutani "Dry Ice" Shizuku had been muttering about getting reference books, before she left the room.

Kagome slipped her books and notes into her bag before getting up from her seat and making her way to the front. Coming to a stop in front of the teacher's desk, her approach had caught the teacher's attention.

Looking up from whatever documents she was looking at, Saeko clapped her eyes upon the girl, who would hopefully be able to do the impossible.

Higurashi Kagome was a mysterious girl, transferring into the school during the second half of her first year after a recent tragedy.

From the records from her middle school, she had been a high-ranking student within the school until her last year where her perfect attendance had become abysmal at best. These absences are apparently the result of sickness, though the pure amount of illnesses listed would make anyone take a double take.

Especially since most of the ones listed were unlikely to actually be seen in a person her age, much less back to back like this.

But whatever had been wrong seemed to have cleared up as she had managed to pass, and make her way into high school.

Entering high school, she didn't seem to suffer from any illness and was well on her way to being in the top 15 of her class until her grandfather (coincidentally the same who person, who had been the one to tell the school of her sicknesses) had passed away. The 17-year-old had moved her after her the first half of her first year, and she had become a part of her class where she instructed to watch her if this pattern showed up again.

One problem child was already a hassle, and they didn't have the time to care for two.

'Higurashi is a pretty girl, but doesn't seem interested in interacting with her classmates…' she thought, looking at the girl, who stood at 157.5 cm (5'2") with a curvaceous figure and shapely legs that their school uniform only seemed to bring more notice to this fact. She had pale skin, long wavy black hair that reached her waist, and big blue eyes. Blue was a rare color to come across from someone of their country, which only seemed to add to her overall exotic appearance.

The amount of clamor the boys had made when she first transferred in said it all.

Mentally chuckling bitterly, the woman admitted that her student even had her beat in the chest department.

"Ninomiya-sensei?" a questioning voice broke through her thoughts.

Blinking, the teacher chuckled embarrassed as she noticed the student currently occupying her thoughts, staring at her in confusion and not a little concern. Clapping her hands together, she stood up from her seat and moved around the desk. "I've had a change of heart during the last half of the class, Higurashi, and decided that I'll allow you off with a warning this time if you do something for me in return."

The teenager only stared at her, raising a slight eyebrow as she frowned. Her hand holding on to the strap of her twitched as she fidgeted in place, "And what exactly do you want me to do sensei?" she asked.

Grabbing the envelope sitting on top of her desk, Saeko held it out to the girl, who cautiously took it while eyeing her with weary curiosity. The brown-haired woman clapped her hands together and tilted her head to the side.

"Would you mind taking these lesson notes to Yoshida Haru-kun?"
