Kagome would have enjoyed her astronomy class, if it wasn`t for a certain silver-haired, amber-eyed, fang-baring demon sitting next to her, chewing loudly on his gum as he sloppily takes notes on what was shone on the projection screen. So far they hadn`t talked; as if they had silently agreed with one another to distance themselves. But they were failing at the current moment, seeing as they were forced to sit side by side in the lecture hall. Sighing a bit, Kagome glances in his direction as he stops writing abruptly, shakes his pen, and continues writing. His ears flatten slightly at the soundness of the professor`s voice. Of course, Kagome thinks as she writes in her notebook, he`s a dog demon; dogs have sensitive ears, the loudspeakers must be irritating him. She was quite proud of herself for being able to piece together such a simple equation. His loud chewing, turns into fuming, as he shifts uncomfortably in his spot, and leans away from Kagome slightly, "What the hell is wrong with you?" She grumbles, and Inuyasha scoffs at her words.
'I don`t know what`s worse," he starts rudely, "the fact that I`m sitting next to the wench that ruined my party last night, the fact that I`m University, or the fact that I`m studying the same shit as you." Inuyasha snarls in disgust, as Kagome raises an eyebrow at him, trying to stifle a laugh.
"Oh yeah? I don`t recall you saying the same thing last night when you saw me in that see through shirt." Kagome comments, poking some fun at the demon. He freezes, his eyes go wide -he swears it`s like the billionth time they have since last night- and begins to growl loudly, making the professor stop his lecture abruptly and stare at the pair, before returning to his lecture. "And if anyone should be apologizing, it`s you." She adds, just to rub a little salt on the wound. Inuyasha turns in his spot, gaping at her.
"Apolo-what? No! I ani`t apologizing for nothin`! You should be apologizing to me!" His voice went up several octaves, gaining a glare from almost every person in that lecture hall for disrupting their peaceful lesson. "Feh! None of you even like this class, so quit the glaring`!" Inuyasha hollers, calmly gathering his hair up into a semi-high pony tail. Kagome gets up from her seat, and out stretches a hand, about to slap him silly when the professor yells at the top of his lungs.
"Higarashi! Takahashi! Since you both seem to be enjoying disrupting the peace, why don`t you leave, and go outside, where you can yell as much as you want!" Inuyasha winces, and howls loudly as his ears ring and ache, sending him one last glare, Inuyasha gets up and doesn`t so much as give him one last deadly glare before he stalks out of his row, towards the doors. Everyone is silent as they wait for Kagome to leave as well. "Higarashi?" The professor implies, Kagome huffs, gathers her things, mutters a small apology and stomps out t the whistles of various students. Rolling her eyes, she pushes through the heavy doors and looks to her left, only to find a fuming Inuyasha banging his head against the wall. Kagome smirks at the sight.
"Well, that`s not a very smart thing to do for someone studying Astrophysics." Kagome says, leaning against the wall opposite her enemy, "You aid you`d deal with me today. I haven`t been splashed with paint or water yet." Inuyasha growls at her.
"Shut up bitch, and payback`ll come soon, ya wench." He grumbles, earning a deadly glare from Kagome. She once again raises an eyebrow at him. Why did he like to insult her so much? Sure, she might have forced him to stop his party last night, but she also gave him the option to turn the noise level down. He could have peacefully gone with the latter.
"Listen! I don`t care if you`re mad at me for apparently `ruining your night` yesterday! I gave you two options! You could easily have gone with the latter!" Kagome argues, Inuyasha looks up from the ground, his forehead still resting against the stone of the wall. Kagome gulped, and shivers ran up her spine like they did yesterday. He only stared at her for a solid three minutes before going back to staring at the floor. He had no valid comeback. For the first time in his life, he was speechless. This was not what Kagome was expecting from the half-demon.
He turns on his heel, glares at Kagome and says, "Find me when maths starts." In a harsh matter, as if talking to her would make him sick in some way. Gaping once again at him for his rudeness, she watches as he walks away, hair swaying gently in the wind. He had to be the most bipolar freak she had ever crossed paths with. And a jerk too. Letting out a frustrated cry, she crosses her arms, and leans against the wall.
"What a cocky, ignorant, selfish bas-" Her little rant was cut short when she is suddenly drenched in red paint. Head to toe she was covered in red liquid. Turning around she is met with the one Rin described as Koga, starring at her with slight smug expression, that quickly turns into awe. Drenched in red paint, glaring at him in the eye, is the most beautiful girl he had ever seen. Even if she is covered in red, thick, liquid. "What...the...bloody hell...was that for?" She questions, her voice was oddly calm as she takes small steps towards him. "Is this a joke to you? I just got kicked out of my lecture of the year! And now you cover me in fucking paint!" She roars, grabbing him by the shirt collar and pushes him against the wall, her face inches away from his own. Her eyes were a beautiful doe brown, yet they burned with hatred. "Did Inuyasha tell you to do this?"
Koga gapes at her, at her angered expression that took over her gentle face, he fact that Inuyasha had wanted him to do this as pay back on such a beautiful girl was honestly cruel. But the world worked in many - strange- ways. Growling, Koga finally breaks through his trance, and blushing madly, he pushes her away. "It was all his idea!" He chokes out, looking away from her, bucket of red paint resting at his feet. "Wha-whatever you do, please don`t take it out on me." Koga pleas, trying to act as if he was completely innocent. In all honesty he wasn't. He suggested the idea that morning, as they got ready for lectures. He hadn`t actually wanted for Inuyasha to act on it. But then again, this was the Delta Psi leader h was talking about. That mutt actually was so brash as to pull a stunt like this. Koga thinks, as Kagome wanders off into a rant about how heart-less and cruel Inuyasha was. He couldn`t help but agree to most of the things she was saying. Before he knew it, she was picking her semi drenched backpack and walking down the trail of pavement to the parking lot. "Uh...bye?" Koga grumbles, though he knows she won`t hear him. Turning to a tree near the sight of the prank, he glares up at the figure that is sitting on a branch, leaning against the trunk of the tree. A sly smirk broke across Inuyasha`s face as he jumps down and pushes Koga up against the wall. "I did what you wanted mutt face!" He growls, staring at him right in the eye.
"You sold me out." Inuyasha crosses his arms, frowning at the demon before him. "Shoulda stuck with Miroku, I knew I couldn`t trust a fucking wolf like you, damn it." Inuyasha complains, beginning to walk away from Koga. He turns the corner, and walks back into his lecture, being practically assaulted with screams of disappointment and 'I sent you outside!'. Rolling his eyes he plops down in his seat.
"Lech!" Sango screams, as her hand made contact with his cheek. She huffed, and turned to stare at the at professor as she continued to explain the many parts of a human brain to her class. Sango`s hand twitched, as Miroku merely sighed, slumping in his seat.
"Dear Sango, you don`t have to be so brash, " he pauses as she glares daggers at him, "It was not my intention to willingly make you uncomfortable in anyway." Miroku says calming, ignoring the throbbing pain in his cheek at the moment. Sango's eye twitches as her hand balls up into a fist at her side. "Sango, I beg of you, will you forgive me?"
"Rin was right, you are a lecher. It probably runs in the family too." Sango mutters, earning a fake gasp of surprise from Miroku. She rolls her eyes at him, leaning on the lab table.
"Excellent observation, my dear Sango! How ever did you know of that?" Miroku gasps, staring at her as if she had found the cure for Ebola or Cancer. Sighing a sigh of exasperation, Sango fakes a smile, as she writes in her notebook.
"A little birdy told me." She grumbles, and Miroku finds himself staring at her rear end. His hand suddenly twitches with the desire to touch. He tries to shake the feeling away from himself, he wanted to make a great first impression. Really he did, but his hand...well his hand was singing a different song. It wasn`t fair to him really -at least he likes to think that-. His mind and his brain should be to blame for his indecent actions, not his body. But bracing himself for the impact, he inches closer to her ever so slowly, and places a hand on her bottom. Sango stiffens up, and takes her pencil, jabbing its eraser into his eye. With a small hiss of pain he backs away and rubs his eye. "Touch me again and I`ll make other areas of your body ache in pain- and not your perverted way you dirty freak!" Sango threats, her eyes seemed to gleam in what looked like flames.
Were there really flames in her eyes?!
Ah, he must be seeing things now. Sighing, he goes back to work, "It`s the hand! I swear it!"
"Save it Miroku."
"But it is! I`d never really intentionally touch you there!"
"You`re lucky I`m nice enough to not report you to the police." Sango says, glaring for all she was worth at him. Miroku slumps in his seat, and sighs dramatically.
"I`ve had that happen before," He utters.
"What?!"
"U-Uh, nothing, my dear!"
"Mhm..." The amount of coldness in her voice, made Miroku stiffen up a bit, before he slowly relaxes.
Something tells me I`m in for a lot more than groping, Miroku thinks to himself before shaking the thought out of his head and raising his hand to answer a question.
"You don`t seem to talk very much." Rin says slowly, as she walks down the hall to her French lecture. She looks up at Sesshomaru who is walking slowly beside her. He simply narrows his eyes at her and proceeds to stroll towards the French lecture hall. Rin sighs, and hugs her books closer to her chest. "So, are you going to French too?" She asks, trying to spark a conversation, though she highly doubted that he would respond.
"Yes." He says, slightly moving his hand to pull down his shirt`s black sleeve to cover up his markings. Rin smiles at him, but he doesn`t return the gesture. Reaching her destination, she`s surprised when Sesshomaru holds the door open for her. Blinking, she smiles again and walks inside.
"Thank you." She says, earning a small nod from him before she sits down at the first available seat she finds. Sesshomaru gives her one last glance, before pulling his hair up into a pony tail and strolling down to the first row. Rin finds herself being slightly disappointed with his actions, but she shakes the feeling away.
"Hey sweet cheeks!" Rin gasps slightly and laughs loudly when she see`s Bankotsu plop down in a seat beside her. "I see you`ve met Sessh." He says, Rin raises an eyebrow at him. Sessh?
"Sessh?" Of course she knew it was a nickname, but she didn`t really think he was one to have a nickname. "He doesn`t seem like the type to have a nickname..." She begins, but is cut off by Bankotsu.
"Yeah, Sessh. We call him that. Inuyasha calls him Fluffy. Apparently when they were little, he used to walk around with a furry boa on his shoulder." Bankotsu has to fight back his laughter when Rin`s eyes go wide and she begins to laugh.
"A furry boa?" Rin snorts, clutching her stomach, Bankotsu nods and laughs. Turning a bit serious, Rin looks at Bankotsu and sighs, "tell me a bit about what he`s like and why are you in Sophomore French?" She asks.
"Dunno," He shrugs, before assessing her other request, "He`s a bit cold, and mysterious. Doesn`t seem to get along with at ALL with his brother, Inuyasha. His mom is literally a female version of him. Or at least she was, she died when he was three, but I`ve heard stories from Inu No Tashio."
"Inu No Tashio?" Rin ponders this. "Kikyou`s dad?" Bankotsu shakes his head.
"She just has that last name. Inu No Tashio is their dad. After the death of Sesshomaru`s mom, he got married again; to Inuyasha`s human mother."
"Wait, Inuyasha`s mom is a human? Doesn`t that make him a..."
"Half demon? Yes, it does. Sesshomaru acts like he doesn`t care about her, in fact he tries to act like he hates her. But I caught him calling her 'mother` once, a touching moment." Bankotsu covers his mouth when he realizes he`s said too much. "I`ve practically told you his life story."
"No shit." Rin says, turning to stare at the projection screen when class began.
"He`s a half demon?" Ayame questions, as they all lounge in Rin`s bedroom.
"A half demon with a terrible attitude, he made me miss my first lecture of the year, and made me late to Math!" Kagome yells, earning a pat on the back from Sango.
"Calm down Kagome." Sango says.
"I wll not calm down! He made Koga drench me in red paint!" Everyone in the room holds their breathe, that wasn`t good. That wasn`t good at all.
If there was one thing they knew about Kagome it was this;
She was a master at Pranks.
"Kagome, don`t do anything you`ll regre-" But Rin couldn`t finish her sentence, for Kagome had already slipped out of her room. Sharing knowing looks the three remaining friends follow her into her room, where they found her digging under her bed for water balloons. "Kagome!"
"Help me fill out these water balloons." She throws a pack of water balloons at each of her friends, and smirks. "And not with water- fill them with paint."
"Where are gonna find paint?" Ayame asks, snorting at the idea. Kagome points below her. "The basement?"
"No way, dude! The basement is a little too freaky for my liking." Rin protests, shaking her head.
"Do it, it`s not that bad, there`s buckets down there." Kagome rolls her eyes at her and shoos them out of her room. She turns around, and grabs her phone. Kagome opens her facebook app and clicks on Inuyasha`s name before sending him a message.
Payback`s a bitch.
Reading her message, Inuyasha`s amber eyes go wide, and he reaches over to a microphone, that is hooked up to speakers around the Frat House. "Red alert! I repeat red alert! Potential attack from Alpha Rho!" Putting the microphone down, he races down the stairs into the living room where everyone was gathers, humans and demons alike.
"Attack from the sorority across the street?" Koga asks, Inuyasha nods as he stands on the coffee table.
"Alright listen up bitches! Earlier today I pulled a prank on Alpha Rho`s leader- Kagome Higarashi! They pretty much want payback now - Shippo as much as none of us want to hear about how shiny your hair is you have to fucking listen! We aren`t going to let them win! Now, Hojo, Bankotsu, and Miroku- you`ll be incharge of filling up the water balloons. Sesshomaru, Koga and I will be incharge of pelting them with eggs. The rest of you pricks will use water balloons or that silly string shit!" He looks around at everyone who seems frozen in their spot. "Go Delta Psi!"
"Yeah!" With that everyone disbands and runs around the house in a frenzy. Inuyasha simply stares at Sesshomaru and Koga, before leading them up to his bedroom.
"This isn't a mature way to deal with such things little brother." Sesshomaru says calmly, Inuyasha just waves him off.
"But it is, when you have fun doing it." Koga says, earning a smirk from Inuyasha.
"Let the prank war begin, Kagome. Let the prank war begin."
A/N: I would coutinue, but eh I think this is a good as any place to stop. The little war of pranks will be seen in the next chapter, along with Kikyou who didn`t really make an appearance in this chapter -she`ll make a MAJOR mistake- and Myoga will be brought into the picture. Please Review and favorite! Thank you!
p.s this chapter is dedicated to MadameScropio for being my first reviewer!
