A/N: I just ate a Sweet Onion Chicken Teriyaki sub with sweet onion and chipotle sauce. It was delicious lol. Also there will be some slight OOC in this chapter
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha. Takahashi-san does
Chapter 3: New school, new beginnings
As the two girls continued to speed away, the youngest began to groan slightly – her eyes growing saddened as they continued.
Noticing this the elder sister glanced at her "Something the matter"
Turning to her slightly with the same expression she responded "It's nothing" after noticing the glare she received she responded honestly with a sigh and break in her voice "Why does she have to be so weak"
Sighing at the question the elder responded "I'm not sure, fear I guess"
"Figures" the youngest responded as she crossed her arms
"It will get better Kagome, you do know that don't you?"
"I'm not thirteen anymore Kikyo" she looked at her "You don't have to lie to me to make me feel better"
"It will Kagome, trust me it will"
She weighed her words in her head but didn't respond as they continued to approach her new school. She wished she could believe her sister's words, but something in her gut told her not to.
"NOW GET OUT" Kagura yelled to the two teenagers as she parked her car. "From now on you two are getting up twenty minutes early. I can't take you to school, I have to work you know"
"Yeah, yeah, yeah" Inuyasha replied half-heartedly "Twenty minutes early, got it" he closed his door
"I'm not kidding, now go"
"Bye mom" Rin told her mother as she hopped out of the car and closed the door
"Bye sweetheart and don't forget to come home after school and not follow this fool to wherever he's going"
As Inuyasha gave her the finger Rin laughed and replied "Of course I won't bye"
"I can't stand you two" Inuyasha groaned as he and Rin proceeded into the building
"C'mon Yasha you know that without us you would be lost forever"
He groaned louder in protest but said nothing as he silently knew that it was true.
"Inuyasha" Miroku yelled walking up to them with another guy
"What's up Miroku" Inuyasha replied as he slapped hands with him and giving a curt nod to the boy with him
"Dance battle. Onaku here says he can take you"
"Oh really" Inuyasha grinned smugly "I haven't seen you around kid, where you from?"
"Eastie" the boy replied signaling East Tokyo
"East Tokyo huh" Inuyasha laughed before pulling Miroku over
"This will be an easy win" Miroku whispered to him
"I know, how much is the kid betting"
"Nothing, but his partner over there has 100 yen on it"
"Let's do this then" he laughed grateful that he had Miroku to set up his gigs and deals.
When he told Miroku that he was a dancer he expected for him to react in a way that most guys would – laughing and taunting. Surprisingly however Miroku just grinned at the idea of setting up dance battles and betting money on the winner. This before he even knew how good Inuyasha was and after learning that fact decided to up the stakes whenever he saw the opportunity.
"Alright kid" Miroku told Onaku "My man here will take you"
"I know you two are not going to do this in school" a brown-haired girl of medium height strolled over to the growing crowd of on-lookers
"My, my, my dear Sango" Miroku danced towards the girl "How are you doing on this lovely morning"
"Quit it hentai" she growled at him "Can it just be one day where you and Inuyasha don't hustle someone out of their money"
He thought for a moment "Nope" he replied with a smile his violet-eyes beaming with mischief
"Hell no" Inuyasha cosigned "Besides I need the money. You should stick around and watch me murder this guy"
"I think I'll keep my distance" she went to stand next to Rin who was on the other side with her arms crossed
"Isn't it great Sango" Rin looked up to the girl "Inu's gonna kill this guy"
"Not you too Rin"
"What's wrong Sango?"
"It's nothing" she sighed in defeat "I just hope they don't get in trouble."
"Alright, alright, alright" Miroku started walking into the middle of the circle where Inuyasha and Onaku stood "I want a clean fight, no hitting below the belt"
"We aren't boxing Miroku" Inuyasha told him with a laugh
"Whatever, all bets are on, let's do this" he walked over to his discarded bag and removed a radio and video camera
"What's the camera for" Sango asked him
"I need to get footage of Inuyasha embarrassing someone so I can send it in"
"You two are so incredulous" she replied crossing her arms
Miroku just laughed as he started the song and the Black Eyed Peas "Pump It" resonated through the small hallway and both boys began their battle.
As Kikyo pulled up to the curb of the school the two sisters surveyed the building. It wasn't anything compared to what they were used to and they found themselves almost scowling at it.
Noticing the growing crowd surrounding two dancers Kikyo leaned over and asked her "You sure you want to do this"
Kagome noticing the dancers moves smiled slightly, she was more of a ballet dancer but hip hop dancing wasn't bad either. "Yes I do"
"Okay, well I support you."
"I know" she leaned over and hugged her sister "You always have, the only person who always did"
Hugging her back she replied "Now get going you don't want to be late for your first day do you. And remember to change into the uniform for this school"
"I won't, thanks" she replied before hopping out of the car and removing her previous school's jacket
"No problem" Kikyo replied before driving away.
Kagome took a deep breath. She had never been so nervous going to a new school before, possibly because she faced every other school apathetically. Clearing her head of any negative thoughts that would have come to her she proceeded inside the building and approached the growing crowd.
Pushing her way to the front she gaped at the dancers who were in the later stages of their battle.
"Wow" she said louder than intended
"They are good aren't they" a slightly taller girl with brown hair looked at her
"Yeah they are" Kagome replied
"I just wish they wouldn't hustle people out of their money" she looked at her again and bowed slightly "My name's Sango by the way"
"Kagome" Kagome replied also bowing
"You new here?" Sango asked her
"Yes I am"
"Where you from?"
Kagome hesitated slightly; she couldn't tell Sango where she was from could she? Opting against it she replied "Kyoto"
Sango nodded "Out of towner huh?"
"Yeah" it wasn't a complete lie her mother was from Kyoto and she was born there
"Cool"
"Yeah, so who are they"
"Well the guy getting killed is Onaku" she groaned "He's from East Tokyo. I don't understand why the rich kids want to pretend to be poor and come all the way to South Tokyo to go to school."
"Yeah, crazy right?" Kagome laughed nervously "So who's the other guy"
"Oh, that's my friend Inuyasha Takahashi" Sango replied
"Inuyasha….." Kagome trailed off as memories of the boy whom she struggled to remember came back to her
"Yeah Inuyasha, so did you get your schedule yet?"
"Oh no I didn't"
"Well c'mon I'll walk you"
"Um okay" she responded as she looked back at Inuyasha 'I knew I'd see you again' she smiled softly
"So round of applause for my man Onaku" Miroku yelled to the crowd as he rose his hand above Onaku's head
He was met with only a few claps as Miroku moved over to Inuyasha "Now round of applause or my main man Inuyasa" the applause was thundering as Onaku in a huff slid Inuyasha his money and stalked off
"Hey don't be such a poor sport" Inuyasha laughed while giving Miroku twenty yen of the money
"I live for this" Miroku laughed as he and Inuyasha walked away "So did you get a chance to see the new girl talking with Sango"
"I was kinda busy Miroku"
"Oh that's right" Miroku chuckled "Well she was pretty damn hot"
"You think all girls are hot"
"True, but she was really hot. Not as hot as Sango but pretty close"
"Whatever"
"It's true, you should meet her. Maybe she has lunch with us or something"
"Not likely"
"You know you really need a lady, if you had one you wouldn't be so bent out of shape"
"You don't have a "lady" either" he laughed "Still have the slaps on your face from Sango"
"I'm working on it" he laughed along "And no, but give me an hour and they'll be back"
They continued to laugh as a short curvaceous girl with short black hair approached them. Stepping into their line of sight and smiling widely she leaned over to Inuyasha "Hey, Inu-kun"
Inuyasha inwardly groaned he didn't want to deal with her "Hey Yura"
"You still gonna meet me this weekend" she batted her eyelashes
"Yeah I guess"
"Alright" she smiled and walked away swaying her hips
"I stand corrected" Miroku who had watched the scene turned to his friend "I've misjudged you Inuyasha"
"Oh please Miroku, there is nothing going on with me and Yura. I can't stand her"
"So why are you meeting her"
"A guy has needs"
"So what about the new girl"
"What about her"
"You gonna try to meet her"
"Fine if it would make you happy, ask Sango to bring her to lunch and I'll meet her"
"Cool, later man"
"Later" Inuyasha replied as he walked away
'Does it matter if the girl is hot or not? Maybe I should meet her, it's not like I'm ever going to see that girl Kagome again. It wouldn't hurt to try and maybe get something out of it in return.
Alright so in the next chapter Inuyasha and Kagome will meet each other for the first time in five years. Give me suggestions on how you want them to meet; also I'm open to answering any questions. Don't forget to read and review. Inudbz girl out.
