"So the r of the sequence .2, .02, .002, etc. is .1. Can anyone tell me why?"

Kagome sighed as the teacher droned on, lightly tapping her fingers on her open binder. She blew a stray strand of hair from her eyes, furrowing her brow as it fell right back into place.

Giving up on the dissenting hair, she glanced out the half open door. A small sigh was pulled from her chest as she watched the occasional student pass by, a grin on his face as he discussed whatever he fancied with his friend, who listened with a bemused smirk.

Crash!

Kagome (not to mention a majority of the classroom) screamed as the window blew inward, spraying her with shards of class. The harbinger of destruction slammed into her desk, sending it crashing into another.

"Damn," he cursed, as he began to pull himself up. Kagome screamed again. He glanced up at her with amber eyes filtered by silvery bangs as he got to one knee.

"Shut up, you stupid wench!" he cried, leaping to his feet. Despite her fear, Kagome shut up. She noticed his swelling cheek, sprinkled with red from a small cut directly above, just missing his fiery eye.

"Good," he grumbled, looking abashedly away. Kagome, curious about this reaction, was about to inquire when the teacher finally spoke up.

"What the hell is going on here?" roared the solid old lady.

"Fuck off!" replied the silver headed youth, launched himself out the window.

The class, including Kagome, clustered around the shattered window, mindful of the broken glass. Murmurs ran through the class as they realized enough of what the situation entailed. This strange boy had just walked up to the smirking Koga.

Everyone knew Ookami Koga's reputation, and to stay the hell away from him. He was the dominant badass of Kanousei High, who still managed to charm his way onto maintaining a position on the football team despite numerous suspensions and failing grades (evidenced by his letterman check worn above his baggy sweats). An imposing and muscular six feet, the senior who would be king kept his long black hair in a high ponytail. No one dared mock him.

"So," chuckled Koga harshly. "You learn your place, you piece of shit? Not gonna mock my hairstyle again, are you, new kid?"

The watchful students exchanged bemused glances with each before turning back to the ensuing conflict.

"No one tells me my place," growled the stranger, stepping slowly towards his foe. "And I have a damn name; it's Idai Inuyasha. I hope you remember it."

Koga laughed. "Why's that? You think-"

He was cut off as Inuyasha's fist, lightning quick, collided with his face.

Inuyasha grinned viciously. "Because," he smirked, glancing down at the prone form of his opponent, "You're going to wake up with one hell of a headache."

The class cheered. The tyrant had been thrown from his seat. The victor glanced up at them, startled by the attention. Before his face could turn red, he spat a "Feh!" at them and bounded away.

Kagome stood amidst the chatting students enthusiastically discussing the strange newcomer, watching the silver mane disappear behind a turn.

"Inuyasha…" she murmured to herself. "Who is he?"

Unintentionally, her friend Tamashii (known more commonly as Tama) overheard her inquiry and answered with a smile.

"That's Inuyasha! He's new here…I heard that this is his third high school; he keeps getting kicked out of the others!" Wonder shown in her eyes. "He's kinda cute, in that bad boy sense. That crazy hair…"

Sango, who was the equivalent of Kagome's sister, rolled her eyes. "You're a relationship hound, Tama. Although I will admit, his taking out of Koga was impressed. While he's nothing more than a brute, Koga is strong. This Inuyasha showed a high level of fighting prowess, felling him with one blow."

Kagome pick her bottom lip lightly, glancing once more out the window. "I think he's a jerk," she laughed.

"Expensive destruction, reckless endangerment, violent brawling, and cutting classes all on your first day. Not the type of student we prize here at Kanousei High School," dictated the principal, glancing up from his report at his new pupil.

"However, we do prize discipline. And frankly, breaking you will enhance our reputation as the best in the region tremendously. That's why I agreed to take you on."

He grinned viciously through his spectacles.

"And that means you will be broken. There's no doubt about that. I'm going to make your life such a living hell that you'll be begging like a dog to have the privilege of following instructions. I don't give a fuck what your past consists of; I spoke with your guardian, Sesshomaru, and he granted me permission to do as I see fit. I'm thrilled."

Inuyasha, who head been slouched in the chair with his arms crossed, staring at the far corner of the room, steadfastedly continued his silence.

After a moment's hesitation brought on by his target's lack of response, the principal resumed his sentence. "Detention, everyday after school for the rest of the quarter. Now get the hell out of my office."

Slowly, Inuyasha rose to his feet. Still not glancing at the administrator, he opened the door and took a step forward. Before walking through, he turned toward the desk. Finally, his piercing amber gaze reached the eyes of the blanching man.

"I don't care what my brother says you can do. I don't care what you think you can do; it doesn't matter. Try as hard as you might, you will never, ever, break me. I promise."

With this, he turned his back and slammed the door, knocking the principal's nameplate off his desk, and leaving him with a strong urge to urinate.

Alright, this is a new Inuyasha fanfic by yours truly. No, it doesn't mean I've given up on All Caught Up; I've simply had a rush of inspiration for this one, and want to pursue it. I'll get back to the other eventually. This one, I think, will be a bit more fun, though, and I hope you will enjoy it.

Notes:

Ookami means wolf
Idai means greatness
Tamashii means soul
Kanousei means potential (I thought this was fitting for a high school)

The line "You will never, ever, break me" comes from a song by the Ducky Boys called "Break Me." The full line is:

You will never ever break me
You knocked me down, I got back up

The title for this story came from the Green Day song "Best Thing in Town," because it's about Inuyasha's struggle for greatness.
