The New Student

The plane flight was long, and the time I lost even longer. A Canadian foreign exchange student in Japan, I was hoping for love, or at least a boyfriend.

My 'family', Higurashi, was standing near the gates of Tashio Airlines, Private Airline strand, whose CEO was funding my trip.

Walking up to my family, I said,"Ohayo, my name is Alex, Alex Cross. It's a pleasure to meet you."

After absorbing the fact that I could speak Japanese fluently, the mother turned to me and said, "It's a pleasure to meet you too, Alex. The older girl's name is Kagome, and that is her brother Souta. The older man is Jii-san, and I'm sure you will enjoy your stay here."

"Ohayo, Kagome-san, Sota-kun, Jii-san, Higurashi-san. I'm glad to be here."

Upon hearing that with a pleased nod, Higurashi-san lead, or rather ushered, us all to a rented Honda Suburban mini-van, and then we drove to the family shrine. On arrival, I noticed a rather expensive BMW in the drive, and hoped my educated guess would be right. Tashio-san's wife made me nervous.

My guess was right, and Kagome squealed like a schoolgirl, ran up the steps, and yelled, "Uncle Sessho! I knew you funded her trip, but why did you come?"

Exasperated, looking across the grounds, I looked at Higurashi-san, pale and asked, "May I please put my stuff away? I'm beat."

With a nod and a couple shocked looks from the kids, my stuff was packed away, I had food in my stomach, and a soft bed later, I was sound asleep.

~~BREAK~~

When I awoke, I started screaming from finding a pair of golden eyes hovering over me, accompanied by twitching, fuzzy, living, pointed dog ears.

"Uhhh... KAGOME!", and with that he left.

I spotted the digital camera and got furious. "Kagome-san! Why did he have a CAMERA? I know I'm strange here, but not that strange!"

"INUYASHA! SIT!"

Thank you! Finally, I could change, go pee, and eat. "EH? What was that Kagome-san?"

"NOTHING!"

"Whatever- I'm going to go take a bath!"

~~BREAK~~

"Oi, Kagome-san!"

"I told you to drop the '-san'. And that was InuYasha. He's a jerk, but he can be nice."

"Stop staring, InuYasha-kun."

"NO!"

"Fu- I mean , Kagome-chan! Halp! I don't wanna swear! He does, but I wanna be SOMEWHAT nice..."

"Inuyasha..."

"NOO! Don't, please-"

"Oswari!"

"Shit!"

"Tashio-san, is he always like this? Wait, do you even know him before this?"

"No. If I was aware of the current situation, then I would've had you stay with me."

A shiver went down my spine at the words. That was not good. I didn't dislike his wife, its just that she seemed to know more than she let on. It was creepy to say the least.

"It's time for school, Alex-chan."

"If you're gonna call me any honorific, call me -kun."

"Okay Alex-kun. Let's go."

~~BREAK~~

The first day of school was uneventful, and so was the following week. Sleep and TV were the best things to do other than eat the tasty treats that Higurashi-san made for me. It was boring. At least, until Kagome went down the well.

"'Bye Kagome! I'll see you soon, right?"

"If Inuyasha lets me! And he'd better, we have a guest!"

With that, she opened the well house door and jumped down the well, not noticing that I was standing there watching. I walked up to the well and put my hands on the rim. I felt the tremendous power flooding into me and connecting with my soul. I jumped down following her, not paying attention to the yell behind me.

"Let her go, for she is my wife."

~~BREAK~~

I looked up, not expecting to see anything usual. I saw sky, unsurprising, seeing as how I wasn't expecting the expected. 'I better find a katana.(SP?) And fast!' Climbing out of the well, I looked up, expecting to be attacked, or see Kagome. I saw neither, which was to be expected, because it was unexpected. "Damn, I'd better find a familiar face, and fast!"

"I, Sesshomaru, agree if you're heading that way. My foolish half-brother is that way."

I whirled around, not expecting to see the person standing behind me. "WHAT THE HELL! You're in the future! You're Kagome-chan's uncle! How're you HERE? I mean- wait..."

'Let her go, for she's my wife.'

~~BREAK~~

"Kagome-chan? What's wrong?"

Kagome looked over to the woman whom she called sister. "I feel fine except..."

"EXEPT MY BASTARD BROTHER IS NEAR! Let's go Kagome!"

"Inuyasha-"

"Please? I won't fight him, but I do wanna know what's going on. Besides, I also smell that weird girl around the well, you can get off my back now, ya'know."

"Inuyasha? Do you know what this means? If she goes missing- Wait, is that her with Sesshomaru-sama? I didn't know he would let her, wait- what are they doing?"

~~BREAK~~

He was leaning down to kiss me after the remark, "Ya know, yer cute and all, but you're awful cold. Well, at least emotionless. Can you even get turned on? Don't get me wrong, you're nice to look at, but I'm not interested until I know you got a brain... But I cant help but wonder..."

'You're talking too much. You never talk this much. He might wonder if you're dyslexic. Or at least sane, witch you know you're not, but at least give off the pretense that- wait, why did he just stop? Why is he turning around, and why is he-OH MY GOD- he's leaning in! He's really hot but where are his brains?"

I slapped him. I didn't just let anyone kiss me, and I was going to tell him just that.

"I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE ROYALTY! I DON'T KISS RANDOM GUYS!"

I shouted instead of screamed, which probably let me keep my life. He smirked, and that kinda got me pissed but I wasn't about to let him see that, so instead I said, "Where are you going, and may I please go with you? I don't wanna have Kagome-chan see me with you, I already know you're not her friend, or she'd have a picture or portrait of you, and by the way, my name is Alex. What's yours?"

"I am Sesshomaru, Lord of the WesternLands. Yes, you can come, and no, I have no associations with the miko. Come."
