Authoress' note- This is my first attempt at a Kurama fic… so… please don't take it too seriously if I screw a little bit on his character… but I want some feed-back ok?? PLEASE REVIEW!
-Chapter 2-
School was almost over… for the rest of the student body that is… Kurama on the other hand got the luxury of staying after to make up for several tests.
after the bell rang and the kids filtered out to their ningen homes, the fox found himself rather relaxed from the release of tension around him…. of course that changed once the after-school kids or 'school rats' as they were referred to filtered into the empty halls to their classes.

She was silent… no words had left her mouth for over 2 years now. It wasn't that she couldn't speak or that she was a fool… just no words were even worth her time uttering… who would listen to her pathetic opinions anyways?
She yanked at her locker one final time… but it didn't budge, setting her guitar case down she stared at the lock… obviously too annoyed to do anything different, but someone's hand came into her view and with a gentle tug… her rickety storage space opened.
Teri looked over to see a dark red-headed boy standing by her as she pulled a stray lavender strand from her face.
"They tend to get stuck sometimes" Kurama mumbled half-heartedly as the young girl in front of him only stared for what seemed like an eternity, her mauve eyes capturing his attention.
"Anyways…"
he tried to break the silence.
"You play guitar?" he asked, trying to get the least bit of interest out of her… but nothing came and she just turned to her locker, threw in her books and slammed it shut, taking her tattered case along with her.
'Ok… that was weird' Kurama thought as he watched her disappear behind a corner.

Her shoes squeaked as she peered into the darkened music room… she had heard about that boy… Suichi, the one everyone talked about… not that she wasn't calling him cute but… she wondered why the hell he would waste his time with her.
Teri slammed her guitar case down and closed the door to a crack… she had finally found a place with an Amp where she could practice.
She opened the ratty case to pull out a magnificent black Gipsen electrical guitar, throwing the strap over her shoulder and pulling a pick from her case, she began to strum random melodies.
She plugged it in, lowered the volume and let her fingers do the talking.

Kurama stared at the TV in space; he was getting rather bored with his pathetic life.
"Come on Kurama cheer up… I don't get why you've been down all of a sudden" Yusuke asked a bit concerned for his usual calm- polite friend.
"I'm fine… just bored is all" he mumbled as Kuwa slapped him on the back.
"Oh come on man… if you're that bored we can go beat something up?" Kurama just laughed at his suggestion.
"Hn… please fox, you knew this pathetic human life was going to bore you sooner or later" Hiei said blandly.
"Excuse me Hiei but I AM a human you know" the young black haired girl beside him chimed in, her mauve eyes dancing with annoyance, but all the fire demon could do was 'HN' in return to her comment.

What was he talking about again… no on knew… this was English
Girls giggled around the room as Kurama tried to concentrate on the board… that is until a woman in a business suit came into the room, the teacher nodded to her whispering.
"Teri… they need to talk to you for a minute" the teacher said in a mellow voice, she didn't say a word as she stood up and followed the women into the hall
'What was that all about?' Kurama thought as the door snapped shut.
Teri stared at the chipped paint in the hall way walls.
"So why won't you talk Teri? Are you unhappy in some way, you know none of your teachers have even heard you speak in the last 2 weeks… is there a reason for this?" Teri just stood there, her mauve eyes emotionless.
the woman sighed.
"I didn't expect to get an answer… that's why I've decided to phone your parents" Teri looked up from her comment and shook her head.
"You don't want that?" the woman asked getting a shake of the head from Teri.
"Well then you better… start talking… for your own good young lady" and with that she stormed down the hall with a sigh, leaving an apathetic Teri behind.
she stood by the door way… her back to the world as she opened to door once again.
The bell rang
Teri brushed past the rest of the class in her extra baggy black jeans and red halter, her eyes pierced through the room outlined in mascara and eye liner… she was the outcast… she knew it
Kurama stayed behind to take his time on leaving… Teri just didn't care as she packed up her notebooks and papers, she brushed past him her lavender hair going astray as she slipped on a piece of paper on the floor… right on her butt
Teri felt herself hit the floor hard; she looked up to see concerned emerald eyes looking down… a bit of amusement about them as well.
"Are you alright?" Kurama asked as Teri pulled herself from the floor and nodded stiffly, rushing out the room.
' What is it with this new girl… I wonder why she doesn't speak?'
