Disclaimer: I would like to, but a fate has it, I don't own anything that has to do with Inuyasha.

Important Author's NoteThis story is the sequel to Different Worlds, Same Desire. One of my loyal reviewers suggested a sequel and we both worked together to create one. AnimeKG thought of the summary and the outline of the story. I only did some minor adjustments. So basically, this whole story goes to AnimeKG, I am just the person who wrote it. I truly thank you AnimeKG for the inspiration and the idea. This is your story!

AnimeKG: She credit's me too much!! Yes I did suggest it and yes I did help with the outline, BUT I was inspired by the true work of my talented co-author, Truth demon, (hold for applause) and she deserves as much credit as I do. I will be editing this story, so expect me to leave comments!! MUWHAHAHAHA!! Yes, I am crazy, and proud of it.

Same Friends, Different Enemies

Chapter 2 – Problems Arise

Lunch had just started and everyone was gathered at their regular table talking about different things. Ever since yesterday, Kagome had been bugging Inuyasha about the song he was writing. All he'd say was that he was writing it, but not much else. Kagome was anxious to know what song they would be performing and it was killing her that he was keeping it a secret.

"Why won't you just tell me?" asked Kagome for the millionth time in two days.

Inuyasha was growing tiresome of the constant nagging, but he couldn't blame her for it. He would be the same way if he were in her shoes. "I said I would give it to you in plenty of time for the show and that's all I'm going to say." he told her sternly.

"Fine, be that way." she said crossly.

Inuyasha softened his gaze on her. She's so cute when she gets all flustered. "Trust me babe, you will like it and it will be all that much better when I do give it to you."

Kagome softened up, just like she always does when he uses that tone. "Okay." she said meekly as Inuyasha smiled at her.

"So, you guys are definitely going to give a shout out to all of us when you win this thing and perform it on TV, right?" asked Sango excitedly.

Kagome laughed at her enthusiasm. "Sango, we haven't even done the show yet, what makes you think we are going to win?"

"You'll win, I have a gut feeling." she said confidently.

"Are you sure it's not just gas?" asked Miroku jokingly. At that, everyone at the table burst out laughing while Sango turned beet red from embarrassment and punched Miroku.

"Anyway," started Sango, as she shot Miroku one last glare. "I heard from the gossip group about two new transfer students."

Kagome looked at Sango incredulously. "Where do you find out all this information?"

Sango glanced over at Kagome. "Don't worry, I'm not betraying you and hanging with the Preps. Those things practically live in the bathroom. It's like their main headquarters; every time I go in there I am always catching some kind of gossip floating around. Though they aren't as reliable as they used to be, I didn't even get any names, just that two new students will be here the day after tomorrow sometime, a guy and a girl."

Kagome thought to herself as to who they might be. Everyone knows that they didn't need anymore Preps in this school. It would be nice to add a few more Rebels to their group.

"Is it just me or is that class getting more and more pointless as time goes on?" asked Kagome as she walked out of her Math class with Shippo.

Shippo laughed at her sour look. "It wouldn't be so bad if the teacher wasn't so distracted." said Shippo as he remembered some information he learned on their math teacher.

"What does she have to distract her?"

"Supposedly, I heard that she had a nasty break-up with her husband. But that just meant that she could spend more time with this other guy she is seeing. Hence the reason for the nasty divorce." explained Shippo.

Kagome let out a sigh. "Where do you guys get all this information!?" she asked, frustrated.

Shippo burst out laughing. Everyone knows that if you want information all you have to do is hunt down Kikyo's ex-followers. They always have dirt on someone. "It's like you've never been in the girl's bathroom before." he said, knowing full well that's where all the gossip originates.

"Well I tend to stay away from the main area where the vermin congregate. Why, I take it you've been in the girl's bathroom?" asked Kagome suspiciously.

"Haha, very funny. No I haven't. I hear it in the guy's bathroom. They must get their information from a girl who's obviously ventured in to vermin territory." said Shippo.

"Ah, I see. Still I hate it when you guys always get the good information. Makes me feel left out." said Kagome, making sure to pout.

"Relax Kagome, I heard from Sango that Inuyasha knows one of the transfer students." said Shippo.

"Ya know, you're not helping matters." said Kagome, referring to the fact that she's always the last to know anything.

Shippo just laughed as they walked out to the parking lot.

"Hey guys." greeted Kagome as she neared Sango's green Honda.

"Hey Kagome, where's Shippo?" she asked.

"He said he had to leave early, something to do with work. Where's Inuyasha and Miroku?" asked Kagome as she looked around for them.

"They'll be here soon. Inuyasha said he found out that his best friend is one of the people transferring here." said Sango.

"Really? Do you know who it is?" asked Kagome, thinking that it would be cool for Inuyasha's best friend to go here. He would probably feel more comfortable with someone he's known for while. He still is getting used to everyone else in their group.

"Nope, no clue. That's why I'm waiting for Miroku and Inuyasha, he's supposed to tell us." said Sango. "I'll have to admit that I'm curious."

"Yeah, me too." said Kagome, noticing a weird, unnerving feeling growing in her stomach. Shaking it off, Kagome spotted the boys. "Hey, there they are."

Kagome pointed over to the front entrance of the school where Inuyasha and a nervous looking Miroku were heading their way. "What's up with Miroku?" asked Sango.

"I don't know; he sure does look weird." Kagome wondered what could be his problem. Maybe Inuyasha told him who his best friend was. But why would that make Miroku act like this? Kagome watched Inuyasha and Miroku walked up to them, Inuyasha went and stood next to Kagome while Miroku shot Kagome a nervous glance.

"Are you alright, Miroku?" asked Sango.

Miroku didn't say anything; all he did was quickly look at Inuyasha and then advert his gaze towards the ground.

Kagome had a feeling it had something to do with this 'friend' of Inuyasha's. "So Inuyasha, I heard that one of the transfer students is your best friend." said Kagome as her heart began to beat faster.

Inuyasha looked down at her. "Yeah, he told me he was having problems at his old school so his family decided to transfer him here for his senior year." explained Inuyasha, not noticing Kagome's uneasy expression.

"Oh, well what school is he coming from?" she asked hesitantly.

"Uh…I think it's called Tama High." he said.

At that moment Kagome's world froze. Sango looked over from her spot, hoping that it had nothing to do with a certain guy they both knew.

Kagome felt like her heart was trying to escape her chest. Calming herself down, Kagome took a much needed breath. It could just be a coincidence. There are a lot of guys that went to my old school. I bet it has nothing to do with him. Kagome shook the worried thoughts from her mind.

So, what's his name?" asked Kagome casually.

"Koga Lang." he answered.

No. Kagome could feel the shock and horror race through her body. This can't be happening. Why do all these problems seem to follow me? There was Kikyo and now there's Koga.

Everyone was silent, and Sango held the same horrified expression as Kagome. Miroku flinched when Inuyasha said his name, he just recently found out from Sango about what happened between Kagome and Koga.

He knew that this meant; Kagome would be entering hell all over again. She just couldn't catch a break. They dealt with one problem only to be slapped in the face with another one.

Miroku watched Kagome's facial expressions. He could clearly see the anger, hatred, and pain flash across her face. He didn't know the whole story, but from what Sango told him he assumed that what happened with Koga was bad. And not only did she have to deal with his cheating; she also had to deal with the girl he cheated on her with. That was like a double slap to the face.

And this Koga guy, he didn't care one bit about Kagome. When he found out how pissed she was, he high tailed it out of there so he wouldn't have to deal with it. Sango also told him that that was the first time Kagome fell in love. Ever since then she had been guarding her emotions so she wouldn't have to go through that again. That's why Miroku, Sango, and Shippo locked Inuyasha and her in the workout room. He knew if Kagome was cornered that she would eventually confess to how she felt. That was the only way to get Kagome to so something; you have to either pressure her or trick her into it.

By now, Inuyasha had caught on and noticed Kagome's appearance. Kagome hadn't said a word, and her expression was blank as she stared off into the distance.

"Are you okay?" asked Inuyasha as he gently touched her shoulder.

Kagome didn't respond at all, she didn't even blink. Inuyasha began to worry until Kagome turned abruptly and walked away. She was already in her car and driving off before Inuyasha could do anything.

"What's wrong with her?" asked Inuyasha worriedly.

Sango didn't think Kagome wanted him to know of her past with Koga so she hurried to think of an excuse. "She told me her stomach hurt, so it's probably bothering her now. Don't worry about it." said Miroku quickly.

Sango thanked him silently. Inuyasha just stood there dumbfounded, not totally believing that it was just her stomach. But before he could deliberate further, Miroku quickly changed the topic and pulled Inuyasha off to his car, saying a brief goodbye to Sango.

Inuyasha followed Miroku to his car and completely forgot about what happened a moment ago.

Kagome parked her car in front of her house. Turning off the car, Kagome leaned back in the seat.

Things were going really well and all of a sudden this had to happen. Just when she thought she was home free, Koga had to make his appearance. Why can't the past ever stay in the past?

Kagome sat there thinking about what to do. She wondered if Koga would even remember her, and what he would do if he found out that she and Inuyasha were together. She highly doubted that he would remember her at all. Koga has had so many girlfriends that he probably can't keep track. Koga and women are like a smoker and his cigarettes. You get one, use it, and then toss it away only to replace it by a new one a moment later.

No, I will not let him ruin my life for a second time, not when I have worked so hard to fix everything. That asshole will get the surprise of his life! One hell of a surprise!!
