Meeting the Girls

Kagome couldn't believe that she had finally gotten to Tokyo. Ever since she was little she wanted to come to the big city of Tokyo and become a singer. She wasn't technically there for her singing but she was still there and it counted right? She had been accepted and gotten a scholarship to Tokyo University.

Kagome Higurashi was of medium height with long raven black hair that reached half way down her back and chocolate brown eyes. In this time of demons, half demons and humans Kagome would definitely be in the category of human, though she was by no means weak and defenseless. She came from a long line of priestesses. Her family was rumored to be the most powerful miko line in history. Kagome went through the priestess training but she never thought of herself as much of a good one, it didn't matter what her mom had told her.

Fortunately for Kagome her best friend, Sango Tanaka, had also been accepted to TU. Sango was a little taller than Kagome with brunette hair that reached to her shoulder blades and hazel eyes. Whereas Kagome was from a priestess line, Sango was from a line of demon slayers. The Tanaka name was feared by most demons and half demons. The girls had been friends since kindergarten and were inseparable like sisters.

Sango was at the college thinking that she would get a degree in business but more centered on the entertainment business. She really wanted to be a talent manager and currently she managed where Kagome sang. To Sango that was fine for now because Kagome was so talented that back in their small town and some of the towns around it she had a gig almost every single weekend. Sometimes she would be her friend's backup singer and she was ok but she really just liked helping Kagome's career.

Kagome, on the other hand, was going for a degree in communications. She really hoped to become a famous singer but if not her backup plan was to be on the radio or TV, or at least to help with it.

"Come on Kags," Sango called to her friend from the porch of their apartment. Sango had one of her boxes of stuff to put in the place they were going to share. To Kagome, Sango looked like a kid in a candy shop about getting out of their small town and moving into the big city.

The miko smiled at her 'sister' and walked towards her replying, "I'm coming, I'm coming. Geesh you need to settle down or the neighbors are gonna think that we're wild or something."

"Let them. We are finally out of small, boring Shikon. We're in Tokyo now so you can start your singing career and I can be your manager."

Kagome gave her roommate a serious look. "Sango you know that we are here for a good education just in case our dream stars fall. You know, like a backup plan."

Sango rolled her eyes. She had heard this 'backup plan' speech of hers more times than one could count. Sango was more of a 'jump then think' kind of person who thought that their dreams will of course come true. As a counter balance Kagome was 'look at all possibilities before doing anything' person and she hoped for their dreams to come true but was a bit more cautious hence the backup plan of a good education.

"Hey is your cousin coming to TU?" Sango asked as she set her stuff down to unlock the door to their new place.

The door opened and the girls went in before Kagome replied, "Are you talking about Rin?" Sango nodded. "Yes she's coming here too but I think she is staying in the dorms. She said something last time we talked about only having one roommate."

The apartment was a nice size. It had three bedrooms, a kitchen area, a living room area and two bathrooms. When you first come through the door there was the living room. To the right was a door to one of the bedrooms. At the end of the bedroom and the living room was an open but small kitchen. It had a stove top oven and a refrigerator. There was a small sink with cabinets all along the back wall. Across the hall from the kitchen was a second bedroom. At the end of the hall was the bathroom to the left and to the right was the third bedroom with the second bathroom connected to it.

The girls looked at each other and raced to the back bedroom. They squealed as they tried to push each other out of the way to get the best room. Kagome grinned as she bumped Sango with her hips tripping her up. Kagome was breathing heavily when she got into the back bedroom saying excitedly, "I win! I get this room."

"Not fair!" Sango said.

Kagome laughed. "The rules of fair play do not apply in love and war," she replied quoting John Lyly.

Sango stuck out her tongue. "Fine," she huffed, "I'll take the room across the kitchen."

The girls laughed and joked around as they unloaded both of their cars. They had most of their stuff unpacked by lunch. Kagome's stomach started growling loudly as she looked into Sango's room and said, "We should get something to eat."

Sango nodded and replied, "I think that there is a Wacdonald not far from here. Near the campus if I remember right."

"Oh that sounds really good. I'm starving."

So they locked up and walked to Wacdonald's talking about how they thought the year would go. "Well at least we will know a few people," Kagome said a bit nervously.

Sango giggled at her friend. "You can sing in front of a crowd of strangers but when it comes to talking to new people and trying to make new friends you get shy and nervous," she said mockingly.

Kagome decided to ignore the teasing as she continued, "We know that Rin is here. Hmm… let's see there's also Hojo and Koga. Oh and there is that guy we met at the communication workshop we went to over the summer." Kagome looked at her friend devilishly before saying, "You know the one that liked you and asked you to 'bear his children'?"

Sango blushed a bright red as she tried to say angrily, "Miroku was a perve."

Kagome couldn't help but tease her friend more, "But he was very good looking. I thought you thought he was too."

Sango decided of ignore Kagome's comment. "If I remember right he is going into communications like you are. He told me that his family owns some radio stations and he wanted to be more hands on with radio than his parents are."

They had finally gotten to the food place. The girls ordered and got their food, sitting down in a booth in the corner. After a few bites Sango went back to their conversation. "For all his faults he does have good connections. I bet we could get him to help launch your singing career."

Kagome thought about it as they ate before saying, "I believe that he said he knew someone whose family was in the recording business but I would feel bad about using Miroku like that. It would be wrong. I want to try and do it on my own not because he wants to get on your good side."

"It's not using if he asks to help," Sango argued.

Kagome gave her a look and the silent understanding that they wouldn't do that to Sango's 'fan'. Sango looked away reluctantly. She sighed.

Before they finished eating they saw none other than the man that they had been talking about come through the front doors.
