That Traumatized Person
It's a new school year for Kagome and her friends. But then a newcomer attends the same one. Not just that, that person might have an unknown connection to Kagome.
Chapter 1: New Year; New School
The sun begins to rises its warmth throughout the neighborhood. As such an alarm goes off to a tune to alert its sleeper to wake up. "Ok, ok." The sleeping individual murmurs as it reaches from under the covers of the bed. That's when the person gets its head out as well. "Honestly, why can't school start later on in the day?" she complains as she turns off the alarm. She stretches her body out and looks out the window, to see the sun rising over the horizon. "Seriously…" She moans as she covers her eyes.
A knock on the door gets her immediate attention. "Come in." She allows the visitor to enter. The door opens up to reveal a bit older girl. "Think you'll pull it off, Kagome?" She asks as she walks in. Kagome groans instead, "I don't get it why it was so easy for you to get through school Kikyo?" She complains at her. Kikyo shakes her head, "Beats me. But it was hard for me to get through nonetheless. The only thing that's hard for you is going through the teenage years." She answers as she sees the nice school uniforms that Kagome has to wear for the school. The uniform has a white sailor top that's green with a red ribbon. And the green skirt is down to her knees, along with a pair of white stockings and shoes. "At least your uniforms are better than mine." Kikyo teases.
Kagome stares through her reflection of her mirror that she's brushes her long raven black hair. Over the years, Kagome has grown about a foot as well as her body began to shape and fold into the proper figure of an hourglass. Not only that her hair has grown quite long as well. It grew down to the middle of her back. A few years ago, the length was passed the shoulders. "Fifteen and a freshmen. Not my cup of tea." Kagome replies as she takes the one uniform and goes into the bathroom to change. All Kikyo does is sighs as she is in the same wardrobe for she's a junior on her part. Her figure changed just a little, compared to her previous look a few years ago. Her straight coal black has grown so long that it's down to her thighs. Crazy enough, thanks to that, it made sure that she and Kagome are like twins expect the hair.
About ten minutes after getting changed, Kagome and Kikyo make it to the kitchen to see what their mother is making for them this morning. "Morning, girls." Ai greets them as she sets down to plates of toast in front of them. "Morning, mom." Kagome responds before taking a bite of the toast. "So what are you going to do throughout the freshmen year?" Ai asks as she grabs herself a plate. Kagome frowns. "I don't know. There's so much to do that I can't decide." She takes another bite. A meow gets her attention. Kagome looks down to see Buyo rubbing his head onto her leg. Kagome automatically smiles. "Hi, Buyo." She scratches his chin. Buyo grown big a strong on his part.
"What about you, Kikyo? You do know that you have one more year until college." Hige reminds her as he puts down his cup of coffee. Kikyo sighs, "Honestly dad, I don't what I should do for the rest of my life." Hige just nods. "Just take your time, dear. It'll come by before you know it." He encourages her. Kikyo smiles for her father's confidence. "We might as well get going." The girls get their school bags as head out the door.
Kagome and Kikyo walk a few blocks in a different direction where the high school is. "So what was freshmen year like for you?" Kagome asks Kikyo as she tries to make sure she doesn't screw up on her first day. Kikyo holds her chin, "Well for starters, you might have challenges throughout the time." She begins as she pulls out something out of her school bag. Kagome turns her sight to see her pull out a sutra. "I just bring with me to keep me at ease." She passes it to Kagome. "I thought it might help you as well." Kagome smiles as she puts the sutra into her own schoolbag. "The classes as going to be a bit harder, but don't worry I still have my old school work if you know what I mean." Kikyo winks at her coyly. Kagome smiles back, knowing that is the truth.
The high school is in view for the girls. "So that's Shikon High?" Kagome asks as they enter the building. Kikyo nods, thinking back to the times she attended the building. They looked to the walls to see the flyers with the students' names, their year, and which class they have to go to so far. "Looks like we're going our separate ways." Kikyo informs Kagome as she has to go to the direction where her homeroom is on one side of the building. And for that, Kagome is on her own. Taking her sister's advice, Kagome looks back to the flyer that has her name is one. "So I'm in 2-3." She mumbles as she makes her way to the assigned room on the second floor. She opens up the door to see that there's a few other students are here as well, in the same outfit. The guys' uniform is a that of a pair of khaki pants, and the top is a white short-sleeve blouse with a green neck tie. Seeing a free desk by the windowsill. She gets herself comfortable and goes through her colorings. So far a few pages have been completed in such beautiful designs of the flowers, cats and everything in between. She gets into her pencil box and pulls out a magenta pencil to resume on her half done page. "Another year of boredom. How fun." She spoke sarcastically.
"Oh come on, Kagome. There's going to be a whole lots of stuff that is fun." A voice gets her attention. She turns her gaze to see it's Sango. "Sango. Oh man I missed you throughout the summer." Kagome hugs her happily. At least she's not alone for the time being. Sango giggles, "Sorry, I was at karate camp throughout the summer." She sits in her desk next to Kagome's. "Have you try getting a hold of Miroku or Inuyasha at all?" Kagome asks her. Sango frowns a little, "Thanks to my camp throughout the summer, I hardly had any time to call you guys." She shakes her head. Kagome nods with a sigh, "It's okay. I guess summer is something that someone wants to do for the time of the year." She rests her chin onto her hand's palm.
So far Kagome and Sango talked among themselves until the other students entered the room. "Oh look, Inuyasha." Miroku elbows the guys' side to pay attention. "What now, Miroku. I'm not too thrilled about this school year." Inuyasha complains to him. Miroku points to the girls with his thumb, Inuyasha follows the direction to see none other than Kagome. Just seeing made him smile. 'She's here.'
