The Summer of Chaos
Chapter 1: The Day the Chaos Began
It was a sunny, bright, summery morning, 6:51 a.m. to be exact, in Tokyo, the day when all the chaos and psychoticness started, but Kagome, still tucked in bed and sleeping soundly, knew nothing of it...
oOoOoOo
'Beep beep, beep beep, beep beep, beep beep...' The continuos ringing of Kagome's new alarm clock (Inuyasha broke her old one the last time he was at her house, whose sensitive ears were irritated by the noise it made) was beginning to bug Mrs. Higurashi...
"Kagome! Get up and turn that annoying alarm clock off!" An agitated mother called from the kitchen, in the middle of making breakfast. She put down the knife she was holding and made her way up the stairs into Kagome's room.
"Kagome, why in the world did you set your alarm clock for 7:15 a.m.? Why did you even set your alarm clock? It's Saturday, you don't have school today. In fact, it's your first day of summer vacation!"
She pulled back the pink covers on Kagome's bed. She noticed some scars on her daughter's arms, legs, and back (she was sprawled on her stomach).
"Ugh... Mom! 5 more minutes, please?" Kagome pleaded to her mother as she rolled over, her back against the mattress, hiding most of the scars. "Please?" She asked again, her eyes still shut.
"Alright, but only if you turn off this irritating alarm clock, or at least teach me how to; you're the only one who knows how to, and I can't find the instructions anywhere." Mrs. Higurashi agreed, her voice only slightly louder than the still-ringing alarm clock. She left the room, headed back downstairs and into the kitchen, and continued preparing breakfast.
Grumbling, Kagome fumbles with the controls on her clock, her eyes still half-closed. After 4 tries, she finally finds the right button combination.
"Ahhh! Stupid alarm clock!" She mumbles to herself, then falls right back to sleep.
oOoOoOo
...An hour later...
"Kagome! Wake up! Your brother's going to eat all the food if you don't get up soon!" Mrs. Higurashi said to her still-sleeping daughter, beginning to feel a little annoyed. "Come on, Kagome!" Mrs. Higurashi pleaded while pulling at her daughter's feet, not wanting to make her grumpy, but still wanting to wake her up. "Kagome, get up! I'm going shopping with Mrs. Minamo today, and she's bring Shuichii and some of his friends over to our house! Tohru's coming as well, and she said she might bring some friends along too!"
"5 more minutes, Mommy, puh-wease..." Kagome pleaded right back, then realized what her "Mommy" just said.
"WHAT! TOHRU"S COMING!"
"That's right! You better hurry up and get dressed, our guests are expected soon. Oh, Kami! It's already 8:23! I better go prepare some snacks! You need to hurry! You are to be Tohru and Shuichii's, as well as their friend's, hostess'! I don't care if you usually aren't home, you're still my daughter, and it's still my job to teach what I know! You're to be the adult of the house while I go shopping with Mrs. Minamo, you'll be in charge of Souta, so if he doesn't listen, then give me a ring on my cell, I have emergency numbers posted on the refrigerator..." A frantic Mrs. Higurashi droned on as she left the room.
Kagome didn't hear what her mother was saying. Inside, her head was screaming 'Tohru's coming! Tohru's coming! OMIGOD! TOHRU'S COMING!'.
Kagome got right out of bed and dove into her closet, searching for an outfit suitable for the occasion. She finally decided on a flowered shirt with a long, flowing skirt and a hair-tie with a yellow cloth flower on it to match, but then thought that her long-distance friend would want to see her true self. She dropped the outfit she had picked out on the carpet floor, then picked out a blue, short-sleeved shirt as well as a pair of jean capris.
oOoOoOo
Mrs. Higurashi was putting some seaweed mochi in a bowl. As a few bite-sized snacks missed the container and scattered onto the kitchen tiles, she remembered her messy daughter's messy room.
'Oh, I hope she remembers to clean that pigsty of hers...it's even messier than Father's (Kagome's grandpa) room, so full of antiques and such...better remind her...', she thought as she picked up the little mochi pieces of the ground and aimed them towards the nearest trash can, which was about 15 feet away.
"Yes! I still have it in me!" the aging woman whispered to herself as the 6 rice-based snacks landed neatly into the bin.
"Now to check on that messy daughter of mine..."
oOoOoOo
Upstairs, Kagome grumbled a little when her mother asked her to clean up her room, but as soon as she left, Kagome let a smile escape.
Even though she didn't really like cleaning her room, she couldn't help it. Tohru was coming! Nothing would ruin her good mood!
Or so she thought...
