Same Difference

Chapter One: Their Hell Yet their Life

"Yay lunch time! My favorite time of the day," exclaimed a petit woman who was currently jumping up and down in the lunch line, which was quite comical considering she was wearing heals The children around her either laughed or shook their head in exasperation at the woman's antics wondering how she ever became a elementary school teacher, seeing how she acted like a child herself.

"Kagome, calm down before you break something, again," sighed the jumping female's, formally known as Kagome's, friend.

"I can't help it I am just so hungry Sango," Kagome grabbed a tray and started down the food line, her waist length Raven locks swaying behind her as she started to pile her tray full of food fit to feed an army.

"You are always hungry. I don't see how you stay so thin. What are you a two," Sango sighed for what seemed like the tenth time in as many minutes.

"Hey how are you and my no good perverted cousin of mine, Miroku, doing," Kagome asked as she stuffed a piece of bread into her mouth, also avoiding her friends statement. She was defiantly not being the best role model for the young children.

"Perverted as always, but he did get a nice bonus the other day," Sango answered as she stared on in disgust as her best friend since childhood stuff down another piece of bread into her mouth and they had yet to reach the cashier. "How about Naraku, has he moved out yet," at this Kagome almost sprayed the contents of her mouth all over her trying to hold back her laughter.

"Naraku, move out, that is the funniest thing I have ever herd. He will never get off his lazy bum and find another place, let alone keep it. How long has he been living with me, a year and a half now? Like he will ever leave, he barely pays the rent now and he is the one who owns Goshinboku Auto Mechanics. I can't believe Dad left that to him in his will" Kagome laughed as she paid for her meal. "Anyways where is that orange ball of mine?"

"Yeah I believe you are stuck with that good for nothing brother of yours till the end of time and if you are talking about Shippou I believe him and my brother are over there with that sweetheart Rin. I can't see how you handle all three of them in one class they are the three stooges, but ten times worse," Sango pointed to the three second graders planning who knows what. They where all the best of friends, Shippou, Rin and Kohaku, and they all had the same second grade class together and Kagome was their teacher.

"Easy tell them that they would have to clean Mimi's cage out if they misbehaved," Kagome sat down at the staff table to resume eating off her overstuffed tray.

"Mimi?"

"The pet hamster," she answered as she stuffed her "cheeseburger" into her mouth finishing it in one bite.

"Hey are you coming this Friday our girl's night out thing," Sango asked as she started to eat her food before her friend started to steel her food again because she ate all of hers.

"Oh no, that's this Friday. I am so sorry Sango I totally forgot. I have plans to go out with my cousin Bankotsu and his partner Jakotsu. I barely get to talk to them nowadays and we finally set a date to hang out. I am so sorry, but I can't come this weekend maybe next weekend if that is ok," Kagome pleaded with her grayish blue eyes.

"We can't next week; we have open house remember maybe the week after. I will call Ayame up and tell her," Kagome's hazel eyed, brown haired friend sighed again.

"Oh yeah open house how could I have forgotten, I was planning that and setting some things up for it just a few minute ago, how could have I forgotten? Oh, and Thank you for understanding and tell Ayame I am sorry for canceling," Kagome had taken the last bite of her lunch and was about to steel her friend's fries.

"Yeah sure do you want me and Miroku to baby-sit for you I am sure Kohaku won't mind having Shippou over," without looking up she stabbed the food stealer with her plastic fork.

"HEY! That was uncalled for I only wanted a fry," Kagome wined pitifully cradling her injured hand staring daggers at her supposed "friend."

"It was only a fry now, but next it is another then sooner or later my whole lunch is gone before I took one bite out of my cheeseburger. You also should learn some table manners what example are you showing these kids," Sango glared back trying to hold her laughter back.

"Momma, Momma can I stay at Kohaku's house this weekend," came the pleading voice of a small auburn headed, green eyed 2nd grader. He was starring up at his mother with large eyes that begged her to say 'yes.' "He said that Miroku got a new game for the PS3 and he said it was way cool. So can I Momma?"

"I don't know Shippou have you been a good boy," teased Kagome bending down to place her adoptive son on her lap to clean of the ketchup marks that had found its way on his cheeks.

"Uh huh, I have been, ask Uncle Naraku. So can I, can I Momma? Kohaku said that Rin's dad is coming over bringing Rin over too, please," he was bouncing up and down on her lap, making it hard for Kagome to clean his face.

"Yes you can go, but if I hear one complaint about your behavior that will be your last visit for a while. I want you to be a good boy and be on your top behavior, Shippou and make Momma proud," Kagome lightly scolded. Even though she was planning on dropping Shippou of anyways that weekend she always liked to mess with his head every once in a while. With that he yelped in excitement hugging his mother around her midsection showing his thanks.

Kagome turned to see her long time friend talking to her brother about the same thing. She had to smile at this, even though they were brother and sister Sango took care of Kohaku like he was her own son. Ever since the little boy was three Sango had to take care of him because both of their parents were in a bad car accident and neither of their parents survived the fatal car accident and like the good sister Sago was she took Kohaku in. She and Miroku, her boyfriend of two years, has taken very good care of the boy with little help from any one. The three looked, talked and acted like a family. It was quite endearing.

When both of them got their guardians approval they both ran of to tell the third member of their party the good news. The two smiling guardians watched on in admiration as the three as they all shouted in glee. They were quite a bunch the three of them. Kagome began to pity her friend who was going to have her hands full with the children, a perverted boyfriend and the friend of the said boyfriend.

Before Kagome could go any deeper into her thought she was brought back to reality with a shift in movement beside her. Kagome looked up and had to suppress a groan from passing her lips as she saw the object that had pulled her from her thoughts. Hojo, her boss and principle of Shikon Elementary the Bain of her existence, besides Naraku of course and he would not leave her alone.

It was not that he was mean or anything, quite the opposite actually he was just too nice. He had this thing with Kagome ever since Kagome applied for a job here. You could say he was obsessed with her.

"My beautiful sunshine, how are you on this wonderful day? Did you get enough to eat," Sango snorted at this gaining a glare form both Kagome and Hojo, one signaling for her to stuff it and the other for her to stay out of this.

"Yes, Hojo-san I did indeed and I believe I have to go and prepare for class now. If you excuse me," Kagome was about to get up when her boss laid her hand on her forearm gaining her attention, much to her dismay.

"Have a wonderful day my little star," Hojo wished as she forced a smile and walked off fallowing her friend to dump her tray.

"I can't believe my luck sometimes. What is with that guy can't he get a hint and leave me the hell alone,' Kagome grumbled to her friend just in time to hear the bell ring signaling the end of lunch hour.

"I know it is kind of creepy how he hits on you like that. See you later Kagome, don't let Hojo-san get to you too much," with that the two friends went their separate ways to finish up the school day.

-With Sesshomaru-

"Here you need to eat something," a black haired, violet eyed computer geek placed a Shichinintai take out bag down on his friend's, since college, desk. He watched as his long time friend scribal a side note on what looked like a new contract for T&T inc. After a few more minutes of eerie silence his white haired friend acknowledged him with his emotionless amber eyes that always seemed to creep him out.

"How is everything in the computer lab, Miroku," Miroku's usually impassive friend opened the take out bag examining the contents.

"It seems as if everything is on track as it should be. Is that the new merging contract, Taisho-sama was talking about," he watched his friend take a piece of Sashimi with his chopsticks gracefully before placing it in his mouth.

"Hai, father had inquired if I could look it over before anything became official," he laid is chopsticks down to pull out another item of the bag only to raise an eyebrow at what he found. He glanced over at one of his trusted friends in question. "Inuyasha's I assume."

"You know him, Sesshomaru-sama, as soon as I said I was going to pick up some food from Shichinintai he demanded that I bring him back some food," Miroku sighed as he seated himself across from Sesshomaru.

"Does he eat anything else other than Ramen," Sesshomaru placed the container back into the bag to pull out a bowl of rice.

"Not that I know of. That is the only thing I have ever seen him eat. Though I do have to say Shichinintai does make the best Ramen," Miroku now occupied with his own food.

"Are we still on for Friday," Sesshomaru bent over his desk to scribble something else down in the margins of the contract.

"Yup, but I just got a call a few minutes ago and it seems that my lovely Sango will be home that night instead of going out saying something about my cousin having other things to do. Also my cousin's son should be coming over and from what I have heard, him, Kohaku-chan and your little Rin-chan are good friends and a handful at times," informed the violet eyed man with what seemed like mirth in his eyes.

"Is Naraku going to be there and I believe you have informed me that nobody in your family is married besides your cousin Bankotsu, which hardly counts, if that is so why would one of your cousins have a child," accepting the change at least his daughter will have someone to play with.

"Well just like you, my beloved cousin has adopted a young boy and he has been in her care for two years now and yet she still is well off finically to have our good friend Naraku-san live with her. She is too kind-hearted for her own good. If I was her I would have kicked the messy boy out of my home, brother or no brother, but to answer your first question I do believe he agreed to stop by for a little bit then he said that he would have to be on his to that band of his for practice," Miroku finished his meal as he placed the last piece of sushi in his mouth.

"Oh yes I recall Naraku saying something about his nephew before. I agree with you though that, that woman should throw Naraku out, how long has he lived there now almost two years and I highly doubt he pays for half the rent. He may be a good friend, but he relies to much on other at times," Sesshomaru took another bite of his rice and Sashimi as he listened to his friend agree with him.

"Hey Miroku did you get it," came the noisy demand as Sesshomaru's office door was slammed open.

"I would appreciate if you would knock before entering my office or at least treat my stuff with respect, little brother," Sesshomaru glared at the intrusion.

"Oh shut-up frosty and get that stick out of your ass, who knocks nowadays anyways and the door is fine. Hey, Miroku did you get my food," Inuyasha asked again going strait to the take out bag resting on the desk.

"It sill is considerate Inuyasha-sama if you knock regardless of what others do and I for one think that the way you are acting is uncouth," Miroku said sternly at his friend's discourteous half-brother.

"Oh shut-up Miroku you are almost as bad as Ice Prince over her. Yes Ramen," Inuyasha danced with glee at the sight of his beloved ramen.

"I can not see how Kikyou deals with you and your obnoxious behavior," Sesshomaru had to resist an eye roll at his brother's antics.

"Your just jealous that I have a woman and you don't and probably never will," Inuyasha glared at his older brother.

"Oh contraire little brother I will never be jealous of you," Sesshomaru finished his meal blocking out is brother's ranting.

Sesshomaru was left alone in his office once the other two realized that Sesshomaru was finished talking and was busy finishing looking over the merging contract.

He scribbled a few more things down before he stood up and made his way to his father's office to discuss a few things before they went to the meeting being held later that day.
