Me: Hi all! It's from the one who brought you…uhh… A Saiyan Sister: Vegeta's Past Revealed!
Trunks: And?
Me: HELLO! Wrong category! (Trunks leaves) Ok… (checks casting list) Where's Inuyasha…?
Kagome: He didn't want to come.
Me: Curses! Has anyone seen him?
Shippou: He was going to fight with Sesshoumaru again. Said something about revenge.
Me: Yay. Here's the first chapter while we go searching.
Chapter 1: A Not-So-Normal Day
I stood on the porch outside my front door listening to a song in Russian. It was completely foreign, and I could understand almost two lines. I was just a normal teenager, thirteen for only 6 months. That is, I was normal except for the fact that I hated everything girly.
I was hated by most girls my age for my intelligence. I also despised make-up and other things that made teenage girls set in their own category of life. I hung out with guys as they played bottle cap hockey and played video games whenever I could get my hands on a new game. However, I still considered the phone my best friend.
So, what was so special about me or my family? My older sister, Kagome, and little brother, Sota, could tell you everything. Apart from a half-dog-demon guy and a few others that traveled between our era and theirs, which was a few hundred years ago, everything was just normal. That was when we found out my heritage.
"Sota! Give it back!" I chased my little brother around the room. He had stolen my calculator, which my math homework coincidentally revolved around. "Mr. Russell will have my head if you don't give me that!"
"Come get it!" What a loser Kagome and I had for a little brother. Sota was literally sprinting around the room. In the few hours that we waited for Kagome to get home, Sota and I would end up in huge arguments, mostly with no point whatsoever. "If you're so smart, what's 5x250?"
I thought for a moment. 5x25 was 125... Add one zero… "One thousand, two hundred fifty! Now give it!"
"You win…" The brat trudged over and laid the calculator in my hands. I rushed back to my work, brown hair waving behind me. I sat in front of my math book just as Kagome walked in the door
"What's up, Kag?" My sister set her stuff down at the door. She slipped her shoes off and looked over at me. Her face showed slight anger. There was only one thing that could aggravate her that much.
Sure enough, a few seconds later, Inuyasha trailed in my sister's wake. He, too, looked annoyed. "Hi Inuyasha! We never see you anymore! Why don't you ever…come…over…?" At Kagome's glare, I barely finished my sentence. As Inuyasha began to answer me, Kagome bellowed the infamous word.
"SIT!" Inuyasha fell onto the floor. Soon both Kagome and Inuyasha had erupted into incessant screaming. It was oddly pointless. When the doorbell rang I ran to the door.
"Hi Josh!" I yelled when I saw who it was. The eighth grader I'd had a crush on all year had finally asked me out. "One second, okay? You-" I was about to invite him in when I remembered Inuyasha. "If you come in, DO NOT freak out, okay?"
He nodded. "What is it, 'D's and below?' Is your dog a vampire?"
"Well, yeah, but that's not the point. There's someone you might not want to meet…"
Screams erupted from the other room. Josh and I sprinted for it, fearing something bad had happened. Instead I saw that, in his anger, Inuyasha had accidentally slashed a picture with his claws. It was Kagome's favorite picture, and, incidentally, she was now preparing to rip his head off.
"INUYASHA! HOW COULD YOU? I LOVED THAT PICTURE! YOU ARE SO DEAD! YOU'LL BE SO DEAD THAT KIKYO'S SOUL STEALERS WON'T BE ABLE TO REVIVE YOU!"
"I didn't mean to! Besides, it was a stupid picture anyway!"
"He-he has… dog ears…" I turned from the argument to Josh, who stared with pure shock. "This is worse than.. Than Harry's stupid math questions… Is this.. A joke?"
"Um… Yeah, about that… He's Inuyasha, a half-dog demon. This is Kagome, and Sota. Everyone, this is Josh."
Kagome turned to us. "Oh, so he's the cute one? You were right, he is cute!"
I glanced over to see Josh blushing. (lol if anyone who knows him, although I hope he is NOT reading this, can see him doing that, let me know!) I began to turn a little red myself before looking away.
"Umm, Kagome?" I quickly changed the subject. My hand lifted and I forced a finger to point at Inuyasha, who was trying to quietly slip away. "Weren't you going to kill him?"
"Oh yeah. Thanks a lot." I watched my sister turn and speed after the sprinting demon. He was powerless against her, however, and was soon at Kagome's mercy. Josh turned to me.
"Shall we?" I nodded and we headed for the door. This would be an odd date.
