It was recess. Kids of all elementary ages were running around outside, observed by teachers. A little girl was swinging on the swings. Her baby blue eyes shined as she got higher. Her hair was in small high pigtails. "Higher, Kagome!," a boy called up to her. Kagome giggled and pumped her legs, trying to get as high as possible. Kagome felt her little hands slip as the swing went up in the air. A scream erupted from her as she was launched off the front of the swing. The ground was coming up fast.
Suddenly, Kagome was being cradled against another body. She gave a little gasp and lifted her head as she was set on her feet. It was a girl. She was slightly taller than Kagome. She had long dark brown hair in a high ponytail, reaching the nape of her neck. She had amber gold eyes. What caught Kagome's attention the most were the dark brown dog ears that twitched atop the girl's head. "Hey you're the new girl in my class.," Kagome said stupidly. "Yes. Are you okay?," she asked. Kagome nodded her head. "What's your name? Mine's Kagome.," Kagome grinned. "My name is Sango.," she said lightly.
"Let's be friends!," Kagome exclaimed happily. Sango raised a brow. "I guess we could.," Sango said. "How old are you? I'm seven!," Kagome said smiling bright. "I am seven as well.," Sango spoke. "You talk funny.," Kagome said scrunching up her nose. "My brothers make sure I speak correctly, as expected of a young lady.," Sango said. "Brothers? How many do you have?," Kagome asked curiously. "Four.," Sango said simply. Kagome's eyes got wide. "That's amazing!," Kagome exclaimed in excitement.
-Four Years Later-
Kagome was excited for today. It was her birthday and a Saturday, meaning NO SCHOOL! Her parents were setting up for her birthday party. Sango, her best friend, was supposed to be there in an hour to hang out before the party. Kagome dressed herself in a tank top and jean skirt. Her black hair now reached her shoulders. As she brushed it, she debated what to do to it. Kagome simply put a headband in it. She packed her clothes for an overnight stay, too. She was supposed to stay over Sango's house tonight. The doorbell rang and Kagome ran downstairs, flinging open the front door.
Sango stood before her. Sango's hair, still in the high ponytail fashion, reached the spot in between her shoulder blades. Being today is Kagome's birthday, they are both eleven years old. "Ready?," Sango asked smiling. It had taken a year for Kagome to get her to smile like that. "Duh!," Kagome said pulling her inside. "So, what did you want to do?," Sango asked. Kagome shrugged. "We could go listen to music.," Kagome said. Sango agreed with it.
