Kagome woke up to her alarm clock screeching in her ear. She groaned as she slammed her hand on it so the annoying high-pitched sound would just go away, so she could go back to sleep. But just as she was about to drift back into the land of blissful slumber Nanako's voice rang through the air.

"Kagome! If you don't hurry and get up you'll be late for your first day of school!"

Kagome groaned as she got out of the warm bed, slowly, and headed towards her closet to put on her brand new uniform. Sighing out loud, she grabbed her school books and tennis bags, before heading down the stairs to the kitchen to eat breakfast.

Kagome had just sat down at the table and started to eat when Ryoma came into the kitchen and sat down himself. Nanjiro walked into the room when they both were almost done eating.

"So, Kagome are you excited to go to your new school? You can make new friends and have them come over sometime!" Nanjiro said with a smirk, an all too familiar one she'd seen on a certain monk in the past.

Kagome looked ate Ryoma who stared back at her with a stare that just said 'Yeah right'. Kagome looked back at him and told him in a sugary sweet voice that had everyone in the room staring at her with slight fear; "We'll see. Maybe I will, but you had better not be thinking anything perverted or you'll surely regret it!" After that was said she got up from her seat with Ryoma following.

As they were leaving she turned to look at him over her shoulder. "Who said I was going to make friends with girls and bring them home, I might just bring home some guys."

After that was said Ryoma, knowing their father best, quickly shut the front door and they made their way to school. Ryoma, at her side, has a slight smirk, that told her he was holding in laughter as well, as they headed down the steps, they heard the angry yells of their father.

"YOU'D BETTER NOT GO MEET ANY BOYS! AND BESIDES YOU'RE NOT OLD ENOUGH TO DATE YET, KAGOME! I WON'T ALLOW IT!" Came one especially loud yell near the end, which forced a small giggle from Kagome's lips and a chuckle from Ryoma's.

At the school, almost time for her first class.

Kagome was making her way to her classroom after she had been in the Principal's Office, the elderly man wanted to talk about her joining the tennis team, and also put on a very long, boring speech about how very proud he was to have such a gifted student in his school. All the while Kagome wanted to pull out her hair, because she knew this was going to happen when she was transferred. She had to tell him she would think about joining the girls tennis team, but he also said couch Ryuzaki said she would be glad if she helped train the boys tennis team also, she said she would rather help coach the boy's tennis team, because the girls mostly on the tennis team would rather stand in front of a mirror than practicing their tennis game.

Kagome sighed as she entered her home room. The teacher was sitting at the desk, and grading papers. She walked over to the desk as the students in the room gave her questioning glances that she pointedly ignored at the time. It wasn't as if she wasn't about to be made to introduce herself to the class, being a new student. Kagome and the teacher conversed for a couple of minutes until Miss Yamnai stood up and grabbed the class's attention.

"Class, this is the new student. Please state your name and something about yourself."

Kagome bowed to the classroom. "I am Kagome Eichizen, I'm Ryoma Eichizen's sister, yes, I play tennis, and no I will NOT be joining the girl's tennis team for personal reasons." She said with a smile before she cutely cocked her head to the side. "Please take care of me!" She added with another bow.

Miss Yamnai nodded and pointed to a seat in the back of the classroom, next to one of the guys she saw at the tennis courts yesterday, when she was getting a tour of the school. "Takeshi Momoshiro, please raise your hand. Kagome, you'll be sitting to his right, please take your seat." Kagome sighed before she walked over to the seat assigned to her and sat down, she could tell something was going to happen today, and she didn't know if it was good or bad. Kagome turned to a voice saying,

"Hey your Ryoma's older sister, aren't you?" Kagome turned her head to see the guy she saw on the tennis courts talking to her. She gave a smile, though she couldn't help the mental wince at the emphasis on older, and nodded her head at his question, about her being Ryoma's sister.

With Momo(before Kagome came in the room)

He was just sitting in his seat waiting for the bell to ring signaling that home room was to start, when he saw the girl who had been with Ryuzaki, the one who said she was Ryoma's older sister, which had him interested. He watched as she made her way to the teacher and conversed for a minute or two, which seemed agonizingly longer to him at the time, before the teacher had Kagome introduce herself.

He hadn't expected her to announce she was Ryoma's sister, considering Ryoma's fan club, and then the teacher pointed to the seat next to himself.

"Takeshi Momoshiro, please raise your hand." Momo did as told and the teacher turned back to Kagome. "You'll be sitting to his right, please take your seat."

Momo watched as she turned and took her seat next to him with a strange grace that didn't go unnoticed. He decided that he had better get his facts straight on this girl before anything else.

"Hey your Ryoma's older sister, aren't you?" he asked as he got her attention. He saw her turn her head and smile at him, causing him to blush ever so slightly. He watched as she nodded with that smile, as well.

"You're one of the guys from yesterday! My names, of course, Kagome, what's yours. I saw you yesterday on the tennis courts, you a close friend of my brother? You're one of the Seigaku regulars, aren't you?" Kagome asked, a bit excitedly, being nervous about making a new friend and making a good impression on her brother's friends.

"My names Takeshi Momoshiro. You can call me Momo, though. And yes I am one of the regulars and one of Ryoma's friends. So what classes do you have? I can show you to them if you want." He asked, with a smile of his own. He was trying to be nice and play tour guide, not really realizing she'd already gotten a tour, but this was a lucky break for Kagome, since she was already worrying about losing her way. Her sense of direction was, at times, horrid.

"Um... Here." Kagome said as she got her schedule out and scanned over it.

Momo looked up from the schedule, surprised. "You've a lot of your classes with upper-classmen. Are you in eighth grade?" He questioned, looking back down at the schedule.

"Yes, I'm just put in some advanced classes. So, do I have any classes with you?" Kagome asked, switching the subject off of her 'smarts' and back to the schedule.

"Yeah. You have home room with me, obviously. You have Japanese with me, and with Kaidoh. Gym with me and Kaidoh again. Japanese legends with Tezuka-buchou, Fuji-sempai and Eiji-sempai. Art with Fuji-sempai and Eiji-sempai again. English with me, again. Physics with Eiji-sempai and Oishi-sempai. Advanced calculus with Tezuka-buchou, Fuji-sempai, and Eiji-sempai. And on day two you'll have Home Ec with Kaidoh and Creative writing with Tezuka-buchou, Fuji-sempai and, Eiji-sempai." Momo told her.

"So who are the others I have class with, friends of yours?" Kagome asked as he handed her , her schedule back, and she put the piece of paper back in her folder.

"Yeah, they are the other regulars. You'll meet them since you have classes with them. And you'll probably recognize them from yesterday."After that said Momo sat down because the bell had rung. The teacher stood up from her desk and stood in front of the class waiting for them to settle down and when they didn't the teacher started talking.

"Okay class, quiet, just because we have a new student doesn't mean you can start slacking off." Instructed Miss Yamnai.

With that said she began the lesson, but not before glaring at a few boys for letting out wolf whistles at Kagome. The girl simply rolled her eyes, sure her uniform hugged her body better than most girls, because of her constantly training, that doesn't mean they have to make a big deal out of it.

Miss Yamnai sighed as she looked at the boys in the room. It looked like a fan club for her has already started and home room wasn't even over yet. She sighed yet again as Momoshiro decided he didn't care for the guys making cat calls and snapped his eyes over at the males, only to get them whispering amongst themselves, wondering if she was already dating the regular. Looks like it would be a long day, she decided to herself, and waited for the class to settle down, yet again, so she could start and say the announcements on what was happening today.

Miss Yamnai glanced at Kagome and could clearly see she didn't like any of the attention the boys gave her. Maybe Kagome was just what Seigaku needed right now, something fresh and new, she could tell that Kagome was going to be just that.

She had just walked out of her Japanese class. Momo said earlier that she has this class with him and another guy named Kaidoh. She saw Momo in the class, but didn't get to talk to him. She didn't get to meet the Kaidoh character he told her about either. The teacher in that class didn't let any of them talk during class, and she was seated by a bunch of guys who wouldn't stop staring at her and it really annoyed her.

And now here she is in gym class. She had just finished changing and hoped they weren't going to play a stupid game and bore her to death. Before she could think anymore on the subject she heard someone call out her name. She turned around to see Momo walking towards her. She gave a smile, that made some of her fan boys blush, and gave a small wave and started to walk towards him, meeting him halfway.

" Hey Momo!" Kagome said in her cheerful voice, while giving him a bright smile, but before she could say anything more a hand wrapped around her wrist and turned her towards that person.

When Kagome turned to the person who had a grip on her hand, she came face to face with a handsome guy. He had light brown hair, his hair came down a little past his eyes but was parted in the middle so he could see. He had magenta colored eyes, and wore the standard boys gym uniform.

"Can I help you with something?"Kagome asked as she struggled to get her wrist back, and after a couple of seconds of struggling, she did.

The said boy gave her a cocky smirk, and told her."My name is Haru and I'm the president of your newly formed fan club and you are lucky enough to now be my girlfriend." After that said Kagome gave him a weird look, along with Momo who was behind her also gave him a weird look, but which soon turned into a heated glare.

Before Kagome could respond to Haru, Momo jumped in."She's not your girlfriend, and probably never will be. Who in their right mind would go on a date with a bastard like you." With that said and done Momo dragged her to the other side of the gym, where their gym teacher was.

"ok ok everyone gather around!" the teacher called, getting everyone's attention. Everyone did as they were instructed, and gathered around the teacher.

"Ok, I number you of by twos, ones on the left and two's on the right." The teacher yelled over all the chattering students. The teacher started pointing at one student at a time, giving them either a one or a two. When Kagome got pointed at she got a one, while Momo, who was next to her got a two.

"Ok, now go to the sides I told you too earlier!" The students swarmed to get to the side they were assigned.

"Ok now that everyone is on teams" the teacher gave a wicked look, "Lets play DODGEBALL!" a couple of other teachers came up behind theirs and threw a whole bundle of balls at the students. And thus the war started.

Gym class was now over, and Kagome gave a thankful sigh. Who knew the teachers here were so sadistic.

She opened her locker, and started to change.

"Ah! Echizen-san" a couple of girls called out, coming to where she was standing.

"Hai?" Kagome questioned, she was still in the middle of taking her gym shirt off.

A girl with short brown hair, and green eyes smiled at Kagome as another girl with red hair and blue eyes hid behind her and they both bowed, "I wanted to thank you for saving us from getting hit earlier"

Kagome smiled, she had blocked a couple of dodge-balls from hitting the girls in the face, a couple of guys were ganging up on the two and she felt bad for them. It looked like they were going to cry on the game courts.

"Its no problem, they guys were ganging up on you two." Kagome winked at the two as she continued to get dressed, "And I couldn't let them do that."

The two girls blushed, "Arigato!" they bowed again and scurried away giggling.

Kagome caught a couple of things they said

she is really nice!

And pretty!

Now I know why she got a fanclub so fast!

Kagome shook her head, 'great more fans just what I needed' She shut her locker door and headed out to go to her next class.

The class bell had just rung and she sighed. She had to be introduced to the teacher now stood by her as the he quieted the class down.

"Alright. I'd like to introduce you to our new student. She is technically in eighth grade, but has some of her classes with you upperclassmen so be nice. So Echizen-san would you like to tell us about yourselves? " asked as his eyes scanned over the classroom then back at her.

Kagome sighed as he pushed her forward so she could introduce herself. She took a deep breath and gave the class a heart stopping smile as she was thinking,'Great. By the end of this class I'm probably going to have more people on my list to avoid because they are going to be in my newly formed fan club.'

Kagome snapped out of her thoughts and started to introduce herself to the class."My name is Kagome Echizen and it's a pleasure to meet you all." After that said she gave them another smile before assigned her a seat that was next to one Fuji Shuusuke.

Kagome sat down at the seat the teacher assigned her, and gave another sigh, she seemed to be doing that a lot lately. She turned herself in and listened to the teacher giving lectured on some legends and that they would have to pick a legend, and that they would be doing a group project. The teacher said they could have a two person group for the project and they could pick their own partners. When the teacher said they could get up and choose their partners a whole bunch of guy came to her desk, and the girls separated and went to the three tennis players desks. The teacher could be seen smirking at their displeasure.

"Since you are having so much trouble picking a partner I will pick the first group for you. Echizen, Fuji and Tezuka, Eiji. You are the first two teams and I suggest the rest of you find your partners so you can start on your project." Mr. Katari said and saw that all four of the tennis players in the room gave a sigh of relief. The students got into their groups so they could discuss what legend they wanted to do.

Kagome and Fuji had been talking about what legend to do when Kagome came up with an idea."How about the legend of the Shikon No Tama?" she asked the Fuji, and he gave her questionable glance.

" I never heard of that legend, what's it about?"Fuji asked Kagome. Kagome gave a smile as she started to explain it.

"OK, it all started four hundred and fifty years ago. (I think that's right.) There was a Priestess named Kikyo; she was a kind Priestess who was loyal, and loved by all those around her. She was asked by demon slayers to be the protector and to keep pure a sacred jewel that can give any who hold it great power. It can also grant any wish made to it, which was another reason why it was so powerful, but then she started to care for a bandit who was burned from head to toe even his face was completely burned off. His name was Onigumo.

Onigumo became obsessed with Kikyo; he had to have her no matter what but he couldn't move. When he was strong enough he called upon all the demons in the area to have his flesh and make him a new body that was strong enough to take Kikyo as his. Thus becoming an evil demon named Naraku.

At the same time Kikyo started to befriend a half demon named Inuyasha. And they fell in love with each other. Kikyo had asked Inuyasha to use the sacred jewel to become a full human instead of only half. Then they could always be together and her job as protector would be over.

But Naraku had the power of forming into anyone he pleases, so he turned into Inuyasha and struck at Kikyo and said. "Fool, I never had the desire to become human." And with that he took the jewel and put it back in the temple. You see; he really didn't want the jewel all that bad at the time. He really just wanted Inuyasha and Kikyo to hate and despise each other.

Then the real Inuyasha came; Kikyo shot at him with her bow and arrows but she missed. Inuyasha felt betrayed so he ran to the temple and took the jewel for him to become a full fledged demon instead of human. He started to destroy everything but before he could start to leave Kikyo shot a subduing arrow that would seal Inuyasha to a tree forever and this time she didn't miss. But Kikyo was seriously hurt from the blow Naraku gave her and told her little sister Kaede to burn the jewel along with her body."

"The girl was said to be from five hundred years in the future. She was born with the Shikon jewel inside of her body. She released him from the tree her had been pinned to by Kikyo fifty years prior. The jewel was stolen by a crow demon and when it tried to get away, she shot it with an arrow with a sacred arrow.

Unfortunately, she shattered the jewel as well. Then they teamed up to find the shards in hope of completing it and rid of the world of its presence. On the way to search for Naraku and the other shards of the jewel they had made friends with a monk named Miroku, a fox cub named Shippo, a demon slayer named Sango, and her fire cat named Kirara.

(Not going to go into all the details of their adventurers if you don't know it go ask someone else.)

After the bloody bath of the battle with Naraku, the miko purified the shards. About a week later the miko was betrayed by her group. They said she was no longer needed. All she was good for was for detecting the shards, and that since the jewel was now complete, she was no longer needed. The demon slayer, Sango, the Monk, Miroku, the half demon, Inuyasha, and the dead priestess, Kikyo, went after the defenseless and betrayed miko. They had betrayed her in the worst ways. The half breed had killed her family by starting a fire in her time where she had escaped and killed them instantly.

No one knows what had happened to the miko from the future. Some say that she was killed by the one she fell in love with. Others say she escaped and lived her life to the fullest. No one really knows for sure. But to the people who have meet her say that they would never forget her. To those few people who knew the miko wished for her safety and hoped for her return some day. Some say to be waiting to this very day."

Kagome looked at Fuji."That is what it said in a scroll I read. So do you like this legend or do you want to do a different one that's ok too."

He smiled at her antics."No. I like this one. Though it seems not every legend has their happy ending, now do they?"

"No they don't. Who knows though, the legend could be true and she could be very happy wherever she is at." Kagome said trying to change the subject a little bit.

"You do have a different perspective on things, don't you?" Fuji stated, and almost laughed when she pouted.

"We still have some extra time. So what do you want to talk about?" Kagome said to him as she looked at the clock.

"So Kagome-chan are you going to join the tennis team?" he asked trying to start up a conversation.

She laughed nervously."Not exactly. I'm going to help out the boys tennis team. I had a choice to join the girls tennis team or help out the boys team, and I would rather help out with your team then the girls. But Coach Ryuzaki might just make me train with you guys."

"Why is that? And why do you think Coach Ryuzaki would do that?" Fuji asked, smile still in place.

"Well to be honest with you, I saw the girls tennis team, and they weren't very strong. Most of them were just standing there trying not to break a nail or mess up their hair. And I don't think Coach Ryuzaki would just let me sit on the sidelines, don't you agree?"Kagome told him with a smile.

"I guess you're right about that." Fuji said with a little smile. They had kept talking until the next class.

The bell just rang and all the students were hustling to get to their next class, Kagome looked down at her schedule."So I have art with Miss Kunitar and then Lunch."she thought to herself as she looked for her classroom.

It took a couple of minutes to find the right classroom. She walked in and to the teacher's desk.

"Can I help you with something?" Miss Kunitar asked without looking up.

"Um yes I'm a new student." Kagome told her, a little amused that the teacher was not really interested what was going on in the class, but in her sketch.

"Oh...Yes.. They told me you were coming today. Um.. I'll have you sit at the back table." She told Kagome while looking around at the tables.

Kagome nodded and went to sit at the back table. There were only two people sitting there. There was Fuji who she had already meet and another guy who had red hair, and who was talking to Fuji. They both looked up when she sat down and she just flashed them a little smile, and then turned her attention the teacher that was now talking.

"Alright you have the whole class to draw one very detailed piece of work, or you can paint one." Miss Kunitar told the class, as she sat back down and got her own sketch book out.

Kagome had got out her sketch book and started to draw the thing that came in mind was a transforming demon.

This one demon portrayed a girl with long black and red hair It swayed to the breeze, twining around her as she danced. She raised a single hand towards the night sky, as the moon shone down on her.

Kagome stopped when she has added the last bit of color, with her colored pencil. She was just there thinking, but someone brought her out of her thoughts.

"Wow, Your really good." the person told her.

"Um name is Kagome, and you are?" She asked politely, her eyes shinning as she smiled.

"My Names Eiji. Nice to meet you." the person now known as Eiji said to her, but before they could talk any more the bell rung, signaling it was lunch time.
