Chapter 2.

As he reached the entrance of the school, Inu-yasha waved to Miroku who was standing next to a very angry Sango. 'He must have done something stupid. I'll never understand why he has the need to grope every girl who gets near him'. As Inu-yasha got closer to them, he noticed that a little something was missing next to Sango left. 'She's not here again'. "This is the third day Kagome didn't come to school; she must be very sick" said Inu-yasha, Sango looked at him in pure surprise "when did you start worrying so much about Kagome-Chan?" she asked. "I have been wondering about that myself, you keep on asking and talking about Kagome-Chan; you must miss her a lot" said Miroku "wha- keh! As if, I just want her to stop being a coward and come fight me!" he exclaimed, both sango and miroku stared at him clearly showing disbelieve, and that really pissed him off. "What the fuck are you guys staring at?" he yelled, sango chuckled and that tapped inu-yasha's shoulder "relax inu-yasha, I'm sure she'll come tomorrow" 'or at least hope so… she hasn't answered her phone even once! And when I called at home her father said she was on a trip… The hell she is!' sango sighed loudly unintentionally gaining the attention of both boys. "Something wrong?" asked inu-yasha "no, just thinking" she answered nervously and quickly walked away before one of them would start asking unnecessary question.

"Now that I have explained the assignment thoroughly, I'll be picking the groups. DON'T complaint about who you end up with, it's completely random so simply deal with!" that day had not been his day; the test he graded in the morning trashed his mood. 'Not a single one of my students passed the exam!' was the only thing lingering in his mind. "There will be three people per group; come up and get a number." He said. All the students complied and once they all had the folded little paper, they all opened it to find their respective groups. "which group are you in sango-chan?" asked miroku, "number 4" she answered, "and you?" she asked "aww, I'm not with you, I'm in group 2" said miroku. Inu-yasha sitting next to him looked at him "me too" he said. "I have to go pick a number for kagome-chan, I'll be back". sango came back looking a little disappointed and headed the little paper to miroku "she'd with you guys" she sighed "oh well, I'm off to find my partners." She said and left them. "we have to talked to kagome then. we have to take the assignment sheet to her too, especially If she can't meet with us." Said miroku going through the papers again "what you want" said inu-yasha secretly feeling an inexplicable sense of relief which he simply choose to ignore.

******************************************************************************That same midday kagome was locked in a room, and looking for a way to out of her apartment. 'The window is out of the question, if I jump off the 16th floor I'll become a mess of broken bones! Oh… and I'll die too'. She was hungry and scared. She hated being closed up in small places, and since three days ago, her father had left her locked in a small empty room that originally was the place where her mother kept her flowers. It had a large window that was always uncovered and opened, now the windows were rusting and it took all kinds of effort to open it. She sighed and lay down on the black ceramic tile floor trying her best not to scratch her many cuts. *******************************************************

Thanks a lot for the review. I'm sorry; I know my spelling and grammar are atrocious lol. I've been in this country for ten years, and I still can't get the hang of it. -Gothic Moon G.
