Ice blue eyes (Think Ichimaru Gin) opened as the light of the morning rays peaked through the drapes of the window. Pure, rich tresses of ebony fanned out on the thick futon as a pale slender hand reached out to wipe the blurriness of sleep.
Gracefully sitting up, she put her hand down and stared at the beautiful scenery outside her window. Kagome Higurashi sighed as cold nostalgia washed over her person. How many times did she woke up with a chirpy voice greeting her good morning and a brash one pushing her to move faster?
Shaking her head with a bittersweet smile on her delicate face, she stood up and fixed her futon styled bed.
'Theres no use dwelling on the past.' She thought. Looking at the crisp uniform hanging by her door, she looked at it with hope and determination.
'That`s why I transferred her in the first place.' Two years have passed since the tirade with the Shikon. Now a dazzling seventeen, with the full Shikon safely resting on the cavity of her chest, she moved to Tokyo from Fuyuki city to start anew.
Entering her luxurious bathroom, she observed the marble white tiles and the decently large bathtub. She looked at the extravagant place with a deadpan expression.
'I know im The Shikon no miko, but Sesshomaru-sama`s taking this too far.' The moment she was forcefully sent back to her time all bloody and broken, imagine her shock when a short haired, business clad Sesshomaru came strutting in the well house and quietly picked her up and sent her to probably the most well known hospital in Japan.
Splashing her face with the cold water, the face that greeted her on the mirror made her smiling in content. No more did she resemble the infamous priestess Kikyo, she was now no other than Kagome. Gone were the baby fats and all that was left was a beautiful carved face. Her sun-kissed skin was now replaced by a beautiful porcelain like complexion, unlike the undead priestess' deathly pale one.
The cobalt eyes that shows nothing but innocence grew lighter and colder in age, giving her the icy reputation that differ her from Kikyo's rigid brown. The blue sheen her hair attained was no longer there, leaving her hair a beautiful dark raven in color. With her unruly waves gone, her hair fell neatly in a long straight mass, reaching the back of her calves.
Her mother was hellbent on keeping her hair that way and was repulsed by the idea of her cutting it to a reasonable length, so she let her mother be.
Shedding her nightclothes off, she admired the uniform with something akin to relief. She thanked every kami she knows that the skirt was long enough to cover her knees.
Kami, she hates short skirts now.
Looking at the beautiful shining markings on her legs and tights, one wouldn't think that those slashes were scars that she attained in her sengoku jidai tirade.
Putting on a pair of black stockings, the black skirt followed next. As she was about to put her white dress shirt on, a cold glint enters her eyes at the starburst scar on her chest, where her heart lay beating. Snorting in disgust, she immediately buttoned it close before putting the brown vest over it.
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~
"Homurabara academy huh?" unaware of the stares she was harboring, she observed the school with a hand settled on her waist. The wind ruffled her hair, in which she gathered into a low ponytail by putting a white fluffy ribbon at the tip with some silk tie crisscrossing till midback. (Think of Neji`s hairstyle, but way way longer and the ribbon is a tad bit bigger.)
"Yosh! I wi- UGAH!" Kagome felt something collide with her, knocking her flat on the stomach.
"Itaii. RIN! That`s dangerous!" Emiya Shiro yelled as he glared at the staring Rin.
"Wh-why are you staring at me like that?" instead of answering the question, Rin pointed at something with a smirk on her face.
Following the direction where the finger was pointed at, imagine his horror when he found himself sitting on top of some foreign girl.
"SORRY!" Shiro jumped off while spouting apologies at the same time.
Kagome was about to yell like hell at the person who brought agonizing pain on her spine when she saw how sincere and sorry he was.
"Ah, its fine. No harm done." Curse her sense of unselfishness!
Shirou had to stop and stare at the beauty in front of him. Sure, he had already fallen for a certain armor wearing blonde but he still can appreciate some piece of art.
Rin smacked the blushing boy`s head, successfully knocking him out of the glazy haze he was in.
"Ah! Gomenasai!" offering a tan hand, he noticed that he hadn't seen this girl at the school for quite the whole year. He was about to ask her if she`s new or something when Rin beat him on it.
"Maa, I hadn't seen you before." Rin asked as the girl gracefully stood up.
Shaking the dust that clung to her skirt, Kagome blew the stray bang that fell on her left eye before answering.
"Hai, I just transferred here. My name is Kagome. Higurashi Kagome, yoroshiku." Offering a shallow bow, she missed the flash of recognition on the twin tailed girl.
" 'Higurashi huh?' Name`s Rin. Tohsaka, Rin. And this idiot who shamelessly threw himself on you is Emiya Shiro." Ignoring the sputtering boy, Kagome chuckled at the duo. It kind of reminded her how she and Sesshomaru bantered, albeit, the gender were vice versa.
"I assure you, its no big deal. By the way, if its not that of a trouble, could you show me around? Its okay if your busy, I`ll just find my way to the office." If she was her former self, she would've punched herself silly, but alas! She had long ago learned that when you saw an opportunity, you have to take the bull straight to the horns.
"No, its cool, we have nothing to do anyway." Rin replied, using it to her advantage to see if this Higurashi is the last magi/master to complete a certain war.
"Ah, arigato! It's a really big help!" and with that, the trio entered the school gates, not knowing that they will be closer than anticipated.
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~
'Damn it! Not even a week in this school and there's already a fanclub going on?!' Kagome raved in her mind as she pushed her legs faster.
Sure, she appreciated being fawned over by the male population, but being asked for dates right after another was hell! If she was still on the sengoku era, she had long ago castrated those pesky males.
And that was after she sent one particular male to the infirmary.
The nerve of that bastard! Pinching her behind, really?!
'Thank Kami for those running sessions!' escaping yokai while running away from curses and evil hanyous were proven to be handy when it comes to evading a hoard of hormonial driven fanboys, with some rabid females to boot.
Slamming the door of the rooftop open, she threw herself inside and slammed the door close. Leaning on the said steel, she ran her fingers through her bangs in an irate manner.
"Fuck those fanpeople." She was too busy cursing those people to the seven depths of hell that she missed detecting an amuse aura on the same vicinity.
"Welcome to my world." A familiar voice said. Looking at the direction where said voice came from, she saw one Tohsaka Rin sitting on the foundation with her legs mildly swaying.
"Tohsaka-san! You surprised me!" no joking, she was really startled. Good thing Sesshoumaru has no means of finding out, because if he does, her ass will be handed to her on a shimmering silver fucking platter.
"So, let me guess, someone pinched something. Isn't it?" Rin had a knowing glint on her turquoise eyes as she asked the icy eyed student.
"Yup, Mutou or something was his name. Hope I cracked a jaw or two.. Why? He did the same to you?" Kagome asked Rin, her icy orbs drowning in pure unadultered mirth.
"Hmmm. Kicked him where it hurts instead. The moron wasn't able to walk for weeks." Kagome smirked at the answer she received, she knew that she was sooo going to like this chick.
~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~
"Mou, its not my fault that that fucking Mutou grabbed my butt! Its pure insanity to put me on detention!" Kagome ranted as she walked home. It was know past seven on the evening and here she was, unlocking the gate to her home cursing her prefect`s ass to oblivion.
Suddenly, at the middle of unlocking her gate, her sixth sense tingled and with no further adieu, she stepped back, narrowly missing a gleaming red spear aimed to her head.
Her face remained calm and collected, used to the situation of someone wanting her dead, or worse, completely and utterly obliterated.
"Hooo, I must say, you have some reflex in you girly." Looking up, she saw a figure crouched on the electric post with the full moon illuminating his form, making him impossible to see, although she couldn't say the same for his deep red eyes.
"Years of practice." She replied nonchalantly, choosing to lean on her gates instead.
Meanwhile, Lancer`s cobalt brow rose in mild shock. This girl was nearly skewered by a six foot lance on the head and she talked as if it happens to her every freaking night!
Oh, if only he KNEW.
Jumping down from his perch on the post, he eyed the girl with intense blood colored eyes.
"Im impressed, so you're not just a pretty face.. It seems that you're going to be a threat for the grail."
" 'Grail?' I assure you mister spandex, I have a huge arsenal of secret beneath this pretty face.'"
Lancer`s brow twitched. Mister Spandex? This girl have some guts to insult him, seeing that he could easily kill her in one Gate Bolg.
"So, let me guess, you are sent here to kill me?" she half asked half stated. She might be out of the Sengoku era right now, but she is still surrounded by stubborn power craving demons, although she knew that this one is anything but a demon.
"Good to know that you're not competent as that boy." She rose her brow, so she`s not the only target huh? So that means, his not after the jewel.
"Then, I cant let you kill little `ol me can I?" with that, she made the first move. Jewel or not, no one threatens the Shikon no Miko and gets away with it.
Using her forte, which is speed, she flickered for a moment before reappearing with the same staff in hand. With deadly precision she acquired from shooting arrows at demon`s skulls, she threw the staff at the blunette.
Lancer, on the otherhand, was shocked at the girl`s speed. Steeping aside, he caught his spear and made a few well performed swings before giving the female a smirk.
"Good to know that you're not that easy to kill. I could use some challenge." He lunged at Kagome and made a move to spear her straight to the heart.
Kagome grabbed the spear and used it as a leverage. Pulling the spear along with its wielder, she pushed some of her powers to her unoccupied fist and slammed it into Lancer`s cheek. Letting go of the spear, she watched the servant sail through the wind and winced when said person landed on her tea table.
Lancer recovered far too quickly for the miko`s taste. He swung the spear downwards following it up by swinging it back up, after that, he then proceeded on thrusting his spear on an incredible pace.
Kagome didn't even bat an eyelash when shallow slashes appeared on her cheek, chest and tight. She suffered far more painful injuries back then and was quite immune to pain.
Retaliating, she did a back flip before lunging at Lancer once more. Summoning a neon whip, she wrapped it at the spear. With a flick of the wrist, Lancer was forced to point the weapon to the skies in which Kagome took advantage of. Swiftly turning around, she put both of her hands to the ground and swung her left foot up with force.
A sickening crack echoed along the silent neighborhood when Lancer`s jaw cracked under pressure.
"Your quite good girly. But sorry, I have to finish this now." Kagome`s hair stood on end when Lancer`s spear glowed a bright red in color. The bloodlust seeping through the weapon made bile rise up her throat.
"Gate-" Kagome took a step back. She knew she`s in deep shit if she didn't manage to avoid this attack.
"BOLG!" it happen way too fast, she saw everything turned black while a striking red appeared on her line of vision. She jumped to her left in hope of escaping the incoming spear.
A bloodcurdling scream ripped itself from her throat when white hot pain exploded from her shoulders. She felt the spear being ripped out as she landed on the ground in a bloody heap, her hair escaping the prison of her ribbon.
"Ora~ now look what you did. You should've let my Gate Bolg to go pass your heart. Now look at this mess~." Lancer mockingly inquired as he raised his spear to finish the job.
Something pulsated inside of Kagome as her eyes went hazy in blood loss. She heard every beat her heart made and every breath she took.
Inside of her, the Shikon pulsated rhythmically as it cried out for anything to save its protector.
And fortunately, its call was answered.
Before Kagome`s body went slack with her loss of blood, a flash of gold and a glimpse of bright carmine eyes swam to her vision, then, it all went black.
