I sigh as I look out the airplane window. I was currently crossing the whole world towards Japan. I original lived in NY,United States but now, along with my little brother and mother, we are moving to Japan due to, reasons. The sky was a bright blue and not a cloud in the sky. My little brothers head was laying on my arm as he softly snored. My mothers seat is behind me so I don't turn around to see what she is doing. I don't really care anyways. My music blast in my ears but I really don't mind the noise. It's just a background for my thoughts.
A new country. A new home. A new school. New friends. People in my last school where ok but some people I couldn't just handle. I just wanted to tape their mouths shut so I didn't hear the sound of their annoying voices. I really only have one friend. Her name was Yuki. It was kind of funny. Her neame is snow in Japanese. I glare at nothing in particular as the captain starts speaking "Ladies and Gentalmen, we will be arriving soon. Please turn off all electronic devices and secure your seat belts. Thank you" I groan in announce. Why must we turn off all of our stuff? I just shrug as I turn off my IPhone and shut down my IPad mini. As I put the ideams in my carry on, I glance out the window and see the sections of land. Some are plain green. Others are a soft pink color. Those are probably the Cherry Blossoms trees. I slowly turn my head to face my brothers sleeping figure.
"Wake up" I mumble as I push his shoulder lightly. "Wake up. Where almost there" I repeat. My brother eyes slowly flutter open as he yawns. He moves his head off my arm as he stretches his arms way above his head.
"Are we landing yet?" He asked me. His voice comes out horse ((AU: srry Jean I had to XD)) from sleep. I nod as he climbs over me to look out the window. His eyes scan over the land as a big grin spreads across his face.
"You exited?" My brother asked me as he returns to his spot as he turns towards my grumpy figure. I always didn't like it when he asked me silly questions like that. It just gets me frustrated.
I just shrug. "I guess so" I answer after a moment. "It's not like it's a big difference" I groan. He rolls his eyes at me.
"Not a big difference!?" Sota starts. "Kagome! It's a WHOLE different country! It's like saying that the orginal Annie is the same as the new Annie!" He states as he crosses his arms.
I turn towards him. "Sota stop being dramatic. It's not really that big as you make it seem" I grimace at him as I turn in the uncomfortable JetBlue airline seats. "It's not like the people are going to be that different"
"I bet you they are nicer than New Yokers..." He mumbles. I grin at his comment as the captain begins to speak once again.
"Ladies and Gentalmen, we arrived at our destination. Prepare for landing" Sota gets all exited as we fell the tug of the airplane allowing gravity to let us back to the ground. After a few moments, the wheels of the plane hit solid ground once again. Sota is basically jumping in his seat as the plane lands.
After the plane lands, the door is opened. Sota unbuckled his seatbelt so fast that am pretty sure Sonic would have a hard time keeping up with him. "Mom!" Sota shouts. "Come on! Let's go! I wanna see Gramps!"
While we live in Japan, my grandfather suggested that we live with him so we didn't have to 'hassle' about finding an apartment. My mom smiles gently at my younger brother. "Sure come on, Kagome" my mother states as I rise out of my chair.
My mother as curly brown hair with beautiful green eyes. She wears a green skirt with a white top. My mother is in her mid thirties but you can't see a single wrinkle on her face. My younger brother, Sota, is a exact replica of her. His smile could brighten you even in the darkest hour. Me, however, look odd compared to them. My raven hair comes down to the middle of my back and curls a little at the bottom. My eyes, are pure brown. Am a little taller than my mother so I look like more an friend to her than her daughter. As I said, odd ball.
"Sweetie," my mom begins as she turns to me and Sota." I have to go to the new work place before I can go home. So Grampa is going to pick you guys up" my mother states as she smile sweetly towards both of us. I just shrug my shoulders in response as Sota nods his ok. Just leave it to my other to leave us alone in a new country.
"Thanks you guys" she kisses our foreheads as she heads out of the waiting lobby while rolling her suitcase along with her. I look around for Gramps only to realize that I don't know what he looks like. It's been 10 years since I last saw my grandpa. I was 6 at the time. And Sota was just a new born baby at the time so he never seen his grandfather.
After a couple minutes of searching I finally see a sign that says "KAGOME AND SOTA MY GRANDCHILDEREN!" I smirk as Sota and I head in the direction of the sign. When we reach it, we see a short man with white hair on the sides of his head. The top part of his head in bald. He stands there with a smile on his face. He is wearing a gray rob ((AU:sorry I forgot what they are called)).
"Gramps!" Sota shouts as he runs towards our grandpa. Sota jumps towards Gramps. Gramps drops the sign as he catches Sota and spins him around.
"Sota! It's been so long! Oh look how you've grown! You too, Kagome!" Gramps exclaims as he tugs my arm and brings us into a group hug.
"Hey, Gramps" I say awkwardly. What do you say to a family member you barley even remember?
"Oh you two must be so tired! Let's head home. Oh come on! Let's go! Grab your stuff and we get a taxi!" Gramps exclaims as he waddles towards the exit. I grab my stuff as Sota nudges my elbow as he runs after Gramps.
After a 40 minute drive, we arrive at one of the biggest house on the block. The house is two stories with tan walls. Their is two windows on the second floor and three windows on the first floor. All my life I been used to a one storie house with three bedrooms. "I wonder who will get the big bedroom" G ramps exclaims as he strokes his bald head. Sota and I exchange a glance before we bolt out of the taxi. No way is that twerp getting the big bedroom!
I burst through the the door not even bothering to look around. I dash to the stairs as I run up. I am faster than Sota so by the time he reaches me, I already claimed the biggest room.
"No far! Your faster than me!" Sota pouts as he stands there in the door way giving me big, puppy dog eyes.
I casually walks towarda him. I bend down to his level and rest my hands on his shoulders. I flick him in the head sending him back. "Hey!" He shout while rubbing his forehead. "What was that for!?"
I smirk at him as I stand up straight, towering over him. "Losers weepers!" I exclaims as I put the 'L' sign on my forehead while sticking my tounge at him. He just glares at me while heading to his smaller room, I grin in victory.
I return back down stairs to get some of the luggage that we brought on the plane. Everything else had to be shipped. So it probably won't arrive until tomorrow. When I return out side, gramps is talking to some one from the neighborhood, I suppose. The person is a girl. She is about my height and looks about my age. Her brown hair is pulled back into a high pony tail. She wear jeans and a red t-shirt. She smiles gently at my grandfather and he smiles back.
"Oh, Kagome! There you are!" Gramps exclaims as he and the girl walk towards me. "This is Sango. Sango this is my granddaughter, Kagome. Sango lives in the neighborhood and goes to the school you will be attending. I thought it would be nice if you two meet." Gramps smiles at me as he waddles inside the house.
She smiles at me as he extends her hand for me to shake. "Hi Kagome, it's nice to meet you!" She exclaims. I grin at her as I take her hand and shake it twice.
"Likewise" I say as I let go of her hand. I take three of my bag and head inside." Come inside. We can talk " I state as she nods and follows me inside. She helps me lug up the three bag when we arrive up the stairs and we turn right and walk down the hallway towards me bedroom.
When we enter, I place my bags on the floor and shut the door. When I turn around, Sango is already placing herself on the naked bed. "Your room is big. It's nice in here" she says as she smiles sweetly at me. First impressions. Ugh. I hate them.
I return her smile and join her on the bed. "Thanks. It's so different here. I used to live in New York. So I guess am comfortable with rude, noisy people every where. And the garbage." I shudder. "Garbage" I repeat. Sango laughs at my reactions.
"Well you don't have to worry about that" Sango winks at me. "No one is like that here. And there's barley garbage anywhere" Sango jokes. I laugh. She laughs, too.
"So tell me a bit about the school. I heared about the people there" I ask. The school am going to, Existion High, teaches some interesting kids. Demons, monks, priestesses, stuff like that. And me, I was blessed with my fathers priest powers. My brother, however, was not. He was a little disappointed but my other said it just wasn't meant to be.
"Don't worry, the demons won't hurt you. I'll protect you. Am a demon slayer!" Sango grins as she nudges me playfully. Demon Slayers are people who work in the art of slaying demons. Their weapons are mad out of demon bones and other remains.
" What about you?" Sango asked as she turns to me. "What are you?" She asked as she tilts her head at me.
"Am a priestess" I answer her while patting my head awkwardly" I don't really talk about this type of stuff like this since where I used to live, people didn't like others who had powers like me. Here, almost everyone in this region had some type of powers.
"Oh that sounds so cool! I bet you be better than Kikyou.." Sango mumbles under her breath. I wonder who Kikyou is?
"Who is she? Kikyou, I mean. Is she a friend of yours?" I ask her while raising my eyebrows. She scoffs.
"Hardly. I only put up with her because my friend dates her. Other wise, I would of put her in her place a long time ago" she say with her eyebrows twicing in announce.
"Why don't you just do it? Doesn't your friend know she is bitchy?" I ask.
She sighs. "Yea he knows. His name in Inuyasha. He just puts up with her because he doesn't want to let her go. He's afraid no one will like him again" she groans as she rubs her temples.
"Well...if you ask me, it doesn't matter if no one will like him" I begin as I twiddle with my thumbs. "As long as you have at least one important person in your life, who cares about one person that you don't need anyways?" I say.
Sango looks at me from the corner of her eye before smiling. A big, bright smile. "Yeah. I guess your right. Only if he could hear it from you" she rolls of the bed before facing me. It was nice meeting you, Kagome. But I have to leave now, it's almost time for me to pick up my little brother from camp, I'll talk to you later. Hey, let me get your number" I nod.
After we exchange phone numbers, I wave Sango goodbye as she leaves out the front door and runs to her house that is a little more down the road. Once I cant see her running figure anymore, I close the door shut behind me. "Made a new friend, did you?" Gramps asked sweetly as he comes out of one of the rooms, smiling.
I grin back at him. "Yes I did,gramps. Thanks." He nods towards me as I run back up the stairs. As I renter the room, I shut the door behind me. My back presses behind the door. I sigh as I look at the three bags I need to unpack.
A few hours later, all my clothes are folded neatly in my walk in closet. And my once naked bed, not is covered in pink sheets. The bed is a Queen size. Thank god, I like to move around in my sleep. Three empty suitcases sit in the corner of the room, all three of them are a soft pink. I sigh as I sprawl on the bed. My legs and arms are spread out wide as my eyes stare at the ceiling. I told my grandfather that I wanted my room pink. So on request he painted it pink. I guess he already knew I would get the big room so he painted it before I even claimed it. He even gotten me a desk I could use to do my homework. It's wood and polishes. The legs are white. Basics. The chair matches so the seat is wood while everything else is white.
I silently sigh as I roll off the bed and renter my closet. I guess I might as well to take a nap. I slip out of my blue jeans and my pink hearted t-shirt and slip into my yellow pajamas. My shirt in a button up. But it just reaches before my throat. I drag my feet over to the bed once again. I crawl under the sheets and nudge my head into the cloud like pillow.
After a few minutes of sitting there in the darkness, my eyes begin to feel heavy. I grin in my fading state. A new country. New home. New school. New friends. New life.
