Sorry I haven't been working on this story lately or any other of my other stories lately. With new years' comin' up and all, it's kinda hectic right now...and I've had an odd addiction to pokemon games lately and I don't know why though.

Kagome was now on the plane to a place known as Death City that was somewhere in Nevada, United States.

The 17 year old miko sighed as she stared outside of the window of said plane while Kagome, and the rest of the passengers, waited for the plane to take flight and off to their destination.

She could still remember what her mother told her before the young woman was sent to the plane she was currently boarded.

Flashback...

"Dear?" Mrs. Higurashi knocked on Kagome's door, but not bother waiting for a response, and entered the room with her normal motherly smile. "I have wonderful news."

"What is it, Mom?" Kagome asked in a somewhat bored/sad tone of voice.

"I found a school that would let you attend there." Kagome's mother replied.

Kagome beamed when she heard that. The teen didn't want to dishonor her family with not finishing her education.

"That's great, Mom." Kagome told the older Higurashi woman. "Which school am I going to?"

End of Flashback...

"The DWMA..." Kagome said in her headas she said the answer that her mother had given her earlier that evening before Kagome left.

Kagome also remembered telling her mother that since Inuyasha has youkai blood in him ans that it gave him extended life, that the hanyou would most likely find his way over to the house and bitch at Kagome for sealing the well. Mrs. Higurashi didn't need for Kagome to ask her the question.

"If Inuyasha comes to the house. Please, please, Mom. Don't tell him where I moved to?" The girl could still hear the pleading tone in her voice. Kami, she hated to sound like a pathetic weak child. That's why Kagome promised herself that she would change that from now on.

"Excuse me?" A feminine voice caught Kagome's attention.

"Yes?" Kagome looked at the young woman in front of her.

She had brown hair that was in a loose braid that would have ended at her waist if it wasn't flipped over her right shoulder. She was wearing a white tank top, black skin-tight faded jeans, and white flats. Her eyes were an interesting color, they were an eerie silver color and she also had fangs that Kagome could see when the other girl spoke.

"Is this seat taken? Some drunken baka stolen mine and won't give it back to me." The brunette explained.

The modern-day miko shook her head.

"Nope. No one's sitting here. Go on ahead." Kagome replied with a friendly smile.

The other unknown girl smiled back at Kagome, then sat down in the seat just as the pilot announced that they would be taking off in a moment so all passengers had to be seated and buckled in. Then finally, after that was said, the plane began to move.

"So," The girl said to Kagome after a couple of moments of silence. "What's your name?"

"Kagome. Kagome Higurashi." Said girl answered with her hand extended to the other girl who took Kagome's hand in her own.

"My name's Naomi Hasegawa." Naomi replied to Kagome and let go of Kagome's hand, both girls could see that they were going to be great friends. "So where are you headed, Kagome?"

"To some place caled "Death City". It's somewhere in Nevada."

"So you're going to the DWMA, then?" Naomi wondered to the girl who nodded.

"Cool. I'm headed there too. Are you a weapon or a meister?"

"A wha?" Kagome was confused.

Naomi chuckled. "It's kinda hard to explain, but when you get to the DWMA then you'll know what I mean by the weapon and meister thing."

Kagome tilted her head.

"I know I'm not a weapon...so maybe I'm a meister?" The girl more asked then stated.

"Well, I'm a weapon."

Naomi said before continuing after a moment of silence. "Anyway, it's kind of odd to be tranfering into the DWMA when the year is almost done and the students and staff are on winter break."

Kagome blushed. "Yeah, I left my other school because my attendance wasn't in the greatest of shape. So my mom transfered me to this DWMA place, saying that not only was this the only school that will let me attend, but my uncle is the headmaster of the DWMA."

Naomi's eyes widened.

"You're related to Lord Death?" She asked Kagome who shrugged.

"Yeah, I guess, and my cousin Kid is attending the DWMA as well and promised my mom that he would help me when I got to the academy." Kagome confessed, then looked at the teen next to the miko. "What about you? "What are you going back to the DWMA right now?"

The brunette frowned sadly.

"My meister. She died of cancer and I just got back from her funeral. So now I have to find someone with the same wave-length as me and they have to be a miko." The girl sighed sadly.

"I'm sorry to hear that Naomi."

"It's okay. At least she's not in pain anymore." Naomi smiled to Kagome who smiled in return. "Have you found a weapon partner, Kagz?" When Naomi finished that question, she re-wound the question and realized what she called Kagome. "Gomen nasai Kagome. I didn't mean to call you that." Naomi quickly said.

Kagome just shook her head and smiled.

"It's okay. Just as long as I get to call you 'Mi-Mi'. " Kagome snickered at Naomi's relieved look. (a/n: The nickname Kagz is using for Naomi is pronounced: MEE-MEE.)

Said girl nodded in agreement.

"Sounds good to me." Then the brunette repeated her question from earlier to Kagome who replied with a, "No. I don't have a weapon partner and I'm the reincarnation of a miko from 500 years ago."

Naomi stared at Kagome in wonder.

"You're really a miko, then?" Kagome could've sworen she heard hope in the girl's voice. So the modern-day miko nodded.

"Could you prove it? Gomen. I'm not trying to be mean or anything." The partnerless (a/n: Sorry if that's not a word.) weapon smiled hesitantly.

Kagome took a deep breath before a transparent pale pink barrier surrounded the two young women, Kagome released some of her miko reiki so Naomi could see (or sense) the proof for herself.

The brunette looked at Kagome in awe.

"Wow, your reiki is really strong." That compliment made Kagome blush lightly as her reiki receded back into her body and her barrier disappeared.

"I only showed you a little bit of it." Kagome said shyly.

"Still, it's huge though, even if you showed me a little bit." Then another thought occurred to her. "Why do you hide your reiki?"

Kagome shrugged. "On my way over to the plane through the airport, I had my reiki exposed and, for some reason, a lot of people would be drawn to me. So I used the ability to hide my reiki, that I learned how to do from a friend of mine, and then all of the people that were following me in the airport stopped following me and went on with their day."

Naomi nodded.

Death City: Maka and Soul's apartment...

"Is she hot?" Black*Star asked Kid in excitement.

The reaper boy wrinkled his nose. "How in the hell would I know if my cousin is hot?"

"Well, do you have a picture of her?" Maka asked as she entered the living room area and sat next to Soul.

Kid sighed and nodded, pulled out his cell phone and showed a picture of Kagome hugging his neck from behind and smiling happily as Kid smiled a little.

"Damn. She is hot." Soul said, looking at Kid's cell phone screen.
