Chapter 3

Moving In

A few days passed and Kagome had packed for collage.

"Ready?" Sango called from outside.

"Yeah, coming," Kagome called back.

Kagome took one last gaze at her home that she had been born, raised, and lived in so many years.

Kagome sighed and lugged her heavy bags out the door.

"Bye Mom," Kagome called as she stepped into the car.

"Bye sweetheart don't get into too much trouble," her mother called back.

Kagome smiled and shut the door.

Sango pulled the car out of the driveway and protruded down the street.

"So what do you think collage will be like, Kagome?" Sango asked trying to make conversation.

"I don't know," Kagome said glaring out the window.

"I bet we'll meet some cute boys there huh?...Kagome! Hello, I'm talking to you."

"Huh, oh, sorry, yeah maybe," Kagome said snapping back to the world, she had been lost in thought thinking about that...silver-haired boy.

"Anyway, here we are," Sango said as they pulled up to a large cream colored building.

Window were perfectly aligned on the front and Kagome could see many other buildings painted the same color.

In the front they found a fountain, beautiful flower beds, and park benches lying under willow trees.

"What a beautiful place!" Sango remarked gazing at the wondrousness of the place.

They quickly grabbed there things and went in search of their dorms.

Kagome set her bags down.

"Sango, I have no idea where our dorms are I'm going to ask the front desk, I'll be right back. Watch the stuff." Kagome yelled as she took off towards the office.

"Hello," Kagome greeted as she entered through the office door which was labeled Kiaede Wilks, Office Manager.

"Hello child please sit and me what ye problems are," the woman at the desk said.

Although Kagome found the way the woman spoke odd, she obediently sat and began to explain her dilemma.

"My friend and I where looking for our dorms but we can't see to find them."

"Ah, quite a dilemma you have indeed child."

"Um, yes so I was wondering if you could help."

"Thou must tell me ye name before I can help ye and thou friend, child."

"Of course, I'm Kagome and my friend's name is Sango."

"Kagome and Sango eh, let's see, ah here ye two are, ye will be sharing dorms with a young lady name Kagura."

"Thank you but what number are we?"

"hmmm, ye are 167 child."

"Okay thanks, bye Kiaede."

"Bye child."

"Nice old lady, a bit strange though," Kagome remarked after she had exited the office.

"So, what number?" Sango asked when Kagome had finally made it back.

"167," Kagome answered.

"K, let's go."

They picked up their luggage and pulled it down the hall.

"Here we are," Sango said when they had reached number 167.

The room was smallish but just big enough for three.

Three little beds were lined up on the side of the wall.

A quaint kitchen was wedged in the corner of the room and to their surprise there was a little television perfectly set to you could not only see it from the beds but also from the kitchen.

"Cozy," Kagome remarked as they entered the room.

"Yeah."

"I claim right," Kagome said as she eyed it was closest to the closet.

"Fine, I want the middle," Sango said seeing it was the one that had the best view of the window.

"I guess that leaves me with the left one." A voice said from behind Sango.

Kagome and Sango jumped.

"Sorry, didn't mean to scare you, or did I." she said setting her bags down by the left bed.

"Creepy," Sango whispered to Kagome.

Kagome nodded and walked towards the new girl.

"Hi, I'm Kagome and this is Sango." Kagome introduced.

"Charmed, and if you two must know I'm Kagura," She said attempting a friendly smile.

"Uh, pleaded to meet you Kagura, so I guess we're roommates huh," Sango said moving up to where the other two stood.

"Yes, although I would have preferred to share it with people who weren't so...uh how do I put it...chipper!" She said turning back to unpack.

At that Kagome and Sango gave each others looks and they too began to unpack.
