Title: Isolated
Chapter Two: Monday; Gang Members and a Crush
------------------------------------------------
14-year old Kagome laughed as Sango smacked Miroku across the face. Inuyasha rolled his eyes,
"Jeez you two."
Kagome had been in Tokyo, Japan for a month now. She'd grown closer to he three friends, mainly Inuyasha. Miroku rubbed his burning cheek as they walked to school,
"I was simply trying to make you feel better Sango."
"Inuyasha, you're my cousin, you're supposed to kill people that do that." whined Sango.
He rolled his eyes, "We've known Miroku all our lives Sango, and you should be use to it."
"Some help you are." mumbled the 14-year-old Sango, crossing her arms angrily.
The school came into view, and Kagome got a bit nervous. She swallowed, and asked,
"I hate going to new schools, why couldn't Sango be for two more months?"
"You have nothing to worry about, Kagome." started Inuyasha. "You're acting like soon as you walk in the school, you'll be killed instantly."
Kagome sighed, "Yeah, but still I feel nervous."
He snorted as they walked into the school. Students were talking; arguing, laughing, and some were even kissing their boyfriends. This was Houseki Middle School. They were all in the 8th grade. Some girls squealed as Inuyasha passed by them, and Kagome nearly jumped out her skin.
Sango rolled her eyes,
"I hate when they do that."
"What are they screaming for?" asked Kagome, finally calming herself down.
Sango sighed, "Inuyasha is the second most popular person in school."
"Who's the first?" asked Kagome. "Let m guess, Sesshomaru?"
Sango nodded, "Bingo."
"Whatever," grumbled Inuyasha, crossing his arms, "don't see how."
Kagome smiled, "It's totally obvious, Inuyasha!"
"What! How's that?" asked Inuyasha, staring at her as she got fake sparkly eyes.
Kagome cooed, "He's way mature then you, and he takes so much more care of his hot silver hair. Sango catch me, I think I'm going to faint."
Sango laughed as Kagome pretended to pass out in her arms. Inuyasha's eyes narrowed,
"Since you love him so much, go run after him like the rest of them do."
"Aw," giggled Kagome, standing back up, "did I hurt your feelings? I was only joking."
Inuyasha growled, "You're starting to piss me off."
"I know!" smiled Kagome.
Sango laughed, 'She was only joking, Inuyasha, chill out."
They continued to walk down the hallway, until a girl that looked, almost identical to Kagome came walking down the hallway. She stopped in front of Inuyasha, and smiled,
"Hey Inuyasha."
"What's up, Kikyo." smirked Inuyasha.
Kikyo waved at him, and looked at Kagome, "Who are you?"
"I'm Kagome Haori, I just moved here from Utah." smiled Kagome.
Kikyo nodded, "America, eh? How's it down there?"
"If I answer that it'd be insulting." answered Kagome.
Kikyo nodded, "Hm, yeah. So! Inuyasha, what are you doing after school?"
"Basketball practice, is all I think." shrugged Inuyasha.
She nodded, and asked, "Tomorrow?"
"Basketball practice."
Kikyo asked, "When do you not have basketball practice?"
"Wednesday, only day I'm off from basketball practice." smirked Inuyasha.
She smiled, "Good, want to go somewhere after school Wednesday, then?"
He shrugged, "Sure."
Kagome looked at Kikyo then Inuyasha, feeling a bit angry. She elbowed Sango, and whispered,
"Is there some chemistry going on here?"
"Yeah, I think their going out, but I'm not sure." shrugged Sango.
Kikyo smiled, "Well, I'll see you around. Later Miroku, Sango, and Kahome."
Kagome gaped at her, and she flipped her hair (almost smacking Kagome with it) and left. Kagome was literally about to tackle the girl, until Sango stood in front of her. Sango whispered,
"Calm down, I don't like the wench either, but if you touch her, Inuyasha will get pissed off."
"Did you see what she just did, did you HEAR what she just called me!" fumed Kagome.
Inuyasha snorted, "She was only joking, Kagome, relax."
"She so wasn't!" growled Kagome.
Miroku broke up the little tension, "Let's put this little incident behind us, and move on. We have a whole hour and a half to spend before school starts." (At my school, we have an hour and a half to spend it walking around the school, outside, or whatever talking.)
"Whatever, I'm going to look for something I can sign up for!" grumbled Kagome, stalking down the hallway.
Sango called, "Wait up, Kagome!"
They were soon all the way down the hall, and into the guidance office. Kagome walked up to a table, and sat down at it. She looked at all the flyers:
Girl's List
Sign up for Tennis!
Sign up for Track!
Sign up for Tutoring!
Sign up for Softball!
Sign up for Swimming! (Middle class included)
Sign up for Volleyball! (Middle class included)
Sign up for Cheerleading! (middle class included)
"This crap sucks!" spat Kagome. "No girl basketball! I hate softball I play BASEBALL. Just because I'm girl they make us do under hands."
Sango rolled her eyes, "Relax would you, I'm sure there is like one that you'll do."
"Yeah, swimming and volleyball." sighed Kagome. "I'll go with volleyball, because I've done enough swimming over the summer."
Sango nodded, "Cool, sign up then."
"Gladly, aren't you signing up for anything?" asked Kagome.
Sango shook her head, "Unfortunately, I get trained everyday at home."
"Trained for what?" asked Kagome, after signing her name.
Sango huffed, "My family comes from a long line of demon slayers, and I train until I'm about to pass out EVERYDAY! Except Friday, and the weekends."
"Ouch." mumbled Kagome.
Sango nodded, "Yeah, anyway, when do you start?"
"Today!" smiled Kagome. "Though I have to call my mom to bring me some clothes."
Sango asked, "Got your cell?"
"Yep." nodded Kagome, taking it out, and dialing her mother's cell phone.
After a while, a woman picked up, "Hello?"
"Hey, mom, I'm staying for Volleyball tryouts today, and I need you to bring me my snickers, some shorts, and a black tank top. Will you?" asked Kagome.
There was a pause, then her voice came once again, "Yes, I'll drop it off."
"Thanks, love you."
"Love you too, dear."
Kagome hung up, and stood taking one of the information papers before leaving. Sango followed her out the door. Once put, they were nearly knocked over when a bunch of students rushed in. Kagome spat,
"What the heck!"
"Their signing up, and they want to get a place. If the list gets full, they'd have to wait until tomorrow." grumbled Sango, slamming the door behind the last person.
Kagome rolled her eyes, "Jeez, anyway, so how has Inuyasha known Kikyo."
Sango looked at her with a puzzled look. Kagome exclaimed,
"What!"
"Why you are so upset about Kikyo, are you jealous?" asked Sango, with a raised eyebrow.
Kagome nearly fell on her face, "NO! Why would I be jealous! Keh!"
"Ohhhhh, the keh, you're turning into Inuyasha." smiled Sango. "You must be crushing hard then Kagome."
Kagome yelled, "I am not crushing on anyone!"
There was a loud catcall across the empty hallways, and Kagome snapped her attention to the group of boys across the room. She glared at him, but Sango grabbed her hand and hurried down the hallway. A boy with long jet-black hair, and deep blue eyes called,
"What's you name!?"
"Sango where are we going?" asked Kagome, as their pace sped up to a run.
Sango's voice edged a bit, "Away from here."
She opened the door to the 8th grade hallway again, and let out a relaxing breath as all the students looked at them as though they were crazy for running in there as though someone just threw a bomb. Kagome asked,
"What's the deal?"
"Whenever you see those guys, you'd be lucky to get away! Their really dangerous Kagome, and their not the type to mess with." panted Sango.
Inuyasha's voice came, "What happened? Where'd you two go?"
"To the guidance office." panted Sango, leaning against the wall.
Kagome scratched her head, "What? Are they a bunch of retard/perverts that try to have their way in the school?"
"Their like a gang, and I heard this one girl got gang raped by them." sighed Sango, finishing her fit.
Kagome waved that off, "Rumors."
"You came across wolf crap?' asked Inuyasha, glaring dead serious.
Sango nodded, "I'd stay away from them Kagome, their eyes were on you."
"I'd like to see them even try something with me, I'd rip every limb off there body!" glared Kagome.
Inuyasha snorted, "Yeah, AFTER having someone stronger then them hold them for you."
"Shut up, not funny at all."
He got a serious face this time, "Kagome, I'm serious, don't EVER go walking around these halls by yourself. Those bastards grab every girl they get their hands on."
"Oh." frowned Kagome. "Fine, why would I want to walk in these stupid halls alone anyway?"
The door they entered opened, and the gang walked in. The WHOLE hallway got quiet. Kagome thought,
"Are they really that bad? Shish, stopped a whole hallway from endless noise."
They walked passed them, and every boy winked at Kagome. Inuyasha stepped in front of her, and Kouga smirked. He mouthed,
"She's mine from this day on."
Inuyasha glared so hard it could kill a man. The gang walked down another hallway, and soon as they were gone everyone talked quietly afterwards. As if witnessing a death. Kagome kept hearing her name being spoken about the halls, and looked around confused. Inuyasha growled, and spat,
"Would you all shut up?"
He grabbed Kagome's arm, and stalked out the school and to the courtyard. He made her sit on the stone bench, and hissed,
"Listen to me now, or you will eventually be attacked by them."
Kagome felt her heart kicked up a beat, and nodded. He sat down beside her, and sighed,
"I know their all maybe 15 or 16 years old Kagome, but they are real bad news. As much as Sesshomaru hates my guts, he tells me to stay away from them. They aren't even afraid of Sesshomaru, even though he can do some serious damage to them."
"W. why do I g. gets the feeling I'm go. Going to die now?" asked Kagome, shivering violently.
He sighed, "Just calm down, if you do as I say; they won't lay a finger on you."
"Yeah, that makes me feel much better. Considering I have to walk home, and be home alone today. I might snap into this crazy person in distress." whispered Kagome, tears in her eyes. "Inuyasha, I'm really scared."
He pulled her into a hug, "Since I'm in like every class of yours, I'll be with you every second. You can ride home with me everyday after school, come with me to practice as well. I promise to protect you from him."
Kagome pulled away, and wiped her tears. She smiled,
"I have cried since my aunt moved, which was really stupid to cry about, but the whole story would make me cry. Anyway, thank you Inuyasha. I feel better now."
"Good, I didn't mean to scare you or anything, but those guys are really dangerous." sighed Inuyasha.
Kagome nodded, "I'll have volleyball after school."
"Volleyball?" he repeated. "That's a dumb sport."
Kagome hit his arm, "It is not!"
"How long you have to stay after school?" asked Inuyasha.
Kagome took out her paper, "I have to stay from 3 to 7:10."
"Well I have to stay from 3 to 7:40. So right after volleyball practice, come to the gym across from the girl's gym."
She nodded, "So when do you not have practice?"
"Wednesday."
Kagome sighed, "Lucky, I don't have practice until Friday, and the bad then is I have to get up early in the freaking morning on Saturday to practice as well!"
"Bummer." smirked Inuyasha. "I thought they worked me off."
She sighed, "I haven't officially made the team yet, which I know I am, but whatever."
"Anyway, I'll come with you to your practice on Saturday, and Friday." suggested Inuyasha.
Kagome nodded, "And I'll come to yours on Friday."
"Deal." stuck out hand.
Kagome shook his hand. "Ditto."
"Class is going to begin in a few minutes. We better head to advisory." sighed Inuyasha. "Summer had to go by so fast."
They gathered their stuff, and headed to class. Kagome smiled softly as she walked beside Inuyasha, having one thought,
"I'd be a fool for admitting this to myself, but I think I have a huge crush on him right now."
