A/N: Greetings all and merry meet! This is the first fic I've posted on
FF.net, so I'd like to apologize in advance if it doesn't suit your fancy
(or if it just plain sucks x.x).
Alternate Ego #1: Though I wouldn't be too surprised if it sucked, ne? Jedi: ::glares:: Shut up, bakayarou. Alternate Ego #1: ::slugs Jedi in the head:: Don't use that language with me, missy!! Jedi: ::rubs bump forming on her head:: Owww... ::mumbles:: Baka...
Ideas for this have been dancing around in my head since summer, and finally I'll have them up!
But first, there IS a method to my madness. It's kinda like this:
'Dialogue'
[Thoughts] .~*~.~*~. etc.= time passing/scene change
Hopefully that helps ^^.
Disclaimer: ::sigh:: Must it be said?? Well, apparently it must, so here it goes... I don't own Inu-Yasha or its characters, but I do own Rei (in a way) so just back off, bucko!
.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.
Rei sat in her seat at school, a blank stare on her face. The teacher was lecturing on the Senkgoku Jidai, the 'Era of Warring States'. She found it incredibly dull, so she let her eyes wander, and noticed that the only student who seemed remotely interested in the lesson was her friend Kagome. Rei arched a dark eyebrow. [How could she be interested in this?] she thought. [There's nothing special about it. It's all I can do to stay awake...]
At that moment the bell rang. Rei sighed with relief. She gathered her books and stood up, thankful that it was the end of the day. The boy sitting in the seat next to her was still sound asleep, so she dropped a book on his head to wake him. He groaned, but made no move to wake up, so she shrugged and went over to where Kagome was standing presently.
'I noticed that you paid good attention during class,' said Rei, smiling.
'It was real interesting!' she replied.
Rei arched an eyebrow. 'Huh?'
'Well, I was interested,' she said simply, shrugging her shoulders.
'Whaa...?' she asked, confused. 'But it was so boring...'
'Oh, just forget it,' Kagome said with a wave of her hand.
'Kay...' Rei cocked her head to the side. 'So what are you doing after school?'
'I'm getting ready to go to -- uh, I mean homework!' she said quickly.
'Homework?'
'Umm, yeah! That's it!!'
'Well, I'm way behind on mine, could you help me with it?'
Kagome hesitated. 'Sorry, but I can't.'
'Why not?'
'I have a lot of stuff to do.'
'But you said --'
'I'm sorry. Another day, I promise. Plus, I'm further behind than you are.' She shrugged. 'With all the sick days and all.'
Rei nodded grudgingly and sighed. 'Okay. Well, I gotta go, see ya later, Kagome!'
'Bye, Rei!' she waved to her friend as she left.
.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.
At 12 o'clock that night, Rei was still trying to finish her homework. 'Kay... so if Y=8/7X+30, and A= 17over...' she paused to write it down, '3... is equal to...... whaaat?!' She slammed her pencil on her desk. 'That makes absolutely NO sense! Grrr... this stuff's too hard!!'
She ran her fingers through her hair and sighed. She looked at her clock. 'But I guess it'll have to wait till morning.' She changed into her pajamas and went to the bathroom to brush her teeth.
She laid her toothbrush on the counter and stared at her reflection in the mirror. Her hair was a beautiful golden colour, but her black eyebrows betrayed her hair's natural colour. She sighed and reached for the toothpaste when she suddenly felt she was not alone.
Rei slowly turned her head to the right. Her jaw dropped at what she saw. A young man with long white hair and golden eyes was sitting cross-legged in her bathtub! His oddest feature was his ears, which sat on top of his head and appeared almost dog-like.
During an uncomfortable silence, she blinked a few times, opened her mouth, closed it, then opened it again and said, 'What the hell -- ?'
'Where am I?' the man interrupted bluntly.
'In my bathroom,' Rei replied dumbly. 'Who -- ?'
'Where the hell's Kagome?' he asked.
'Uhh... well, at her house I guess!' she said, almost sarcastically. 'Why -- ?'
'So where am I?'
'In my bathroom!!' cried Rei. 'Now who the hell ARE you?!'
He cocked a dark eyebrow. 'Inu-Yasha,' he replied. 'Where's Kagome?'
Rei sweat-dropped. 'Why are you looking for Kagome?'
"She has to come to the Sengoku Jidai to help me find the Shikon Jewel,' he said calmly, his face betraying no emotion.
'Nani? Where and what? Eh...'
'Is Kagome here?' said Inu-Yasha coldly.
'No,' replied Rei. 'She isn't here.'
'Well, since she's not here,' said Inu, getting up, 'I'll be on my way.' 'Where are you going?' asked Rei.
'I have to find Kagome!' he said, and started walking towards the door.
'Well, do you know where she lives?' she asked.
Inu stopped and pondered a moment. 'I do, but since I don't know where I am, I don't think I can get there.'
Suddenly, an odd idea struck Rei. 'Well, I can take you there, but not now. Tomorrow I can. But you'll have to stay the night here. Is that okay?'
Inu-Yasha thought a moment, and then shrugged. 'Fine.' That's all he said.
Rei cocked an eyebrow. 'Okay then... follow me.'
.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.
That morning, Rei lay awake thinking, which was something she normally tried to refrain from doing. [Hmm...] she thought. [Why would I do something like this? A strange guy suddenly appears in my bathtub, looking for Kagome (and God only knows WHY), and I suggest a SLUMBER PARTY!!! What's the matter with me?] She sighed. [Oh well. I guess after I take him to Kagome, I won't have to worry about it anymore! But then again, I'll have to ask WHY this is all going on...]
Rei's alarm clock went off. Inu-Yasha jumped up, terrified. 'What the hell? A demon?'
'No!' cried Rei. 'It's only an alarm clock. It wakes me up in the morning. It's not dangerous -- it's completely safe.' She pushed a button on the top and it fell silent. 'See?'
'Feh,' Inu replied.
Rei disguised a chuckle with a cough.
'So, are we going to see Kagome?' he asked.
'Not quite yet,' she replied, 'Kagome and I both have school. We'll go this afternoon. 'Till then you need to stay here.'
'So what will I do all day?' whined Inu.
Rei thought a moment, then searched her desk drawers until she found paper and coloured pencils. 'Here,' she said, handing them to Inu. 'You can draw pictures.'
'What the hell...?' he said.
'Look, like this,' she said, and quickly drew and coloured a small, simple picture of a dog. 'Very simple.'
Inu's eyes grew wide. 'Wow...'
'And if you get hungry later,' Rei said, moving on, 'you can get food out of the kitchen.' Rei explained what her kitchen looked like and what the purpose of it was at Inu-Yasha's blank stare. 'But don't leave this room till my parents leave, at about this time,' she said, pointing at the 9 on the clock. 'I don't think they'd like the fact that a strange man was sleeping in the house last night.'
'Feh,' he said in reply.
Rei gathered her books. 'I'm leaving now. I'll be back around this time.' She pointed at the three on the clock. She gave a small wave as she walked out the door.
She grabbed some toast in the kitchen and told her parents good-bye as she rushed out the front door. [I just hope I can get to school in time for early study hall...] she thought. [I might get a decent math grade if I make it!]
.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.~*~.
A/N: Well, there it is!! Short, I know, but please bear with me!
I think I'm going to leave chapter two about like what I've already written down in my notebook ::holds up a blue spiral USA notebook with an American flag sticker:: but I NEED some ideas for the next few chappies.
So PLEASE, please, please, please, please, please REVIEW AND LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK! I MAY NOT UPDATE IF YOU DON'T REVIEW, SO HIT THAT BUTTON AND TYPE ME A MESSAGE!!!
