6 reviews! (ok, so it isn't really that many, but it does make this story my most reviewed) thank you readers! If you have any ideas for chapter 6 they're welcome, chapter 5 is done but I'm a little short of ideas and I'd like your opinions.
Disclaimer: Inuyasha is not mine, I have a few DVDs and will soon have a Sesshy figurine (I just LOVE christmas!) but that is all.
Chained Fate
Chapter 4: A Lot Alike In Anger
Sango rolled her eyes, "you two must have a death wish."
"Shh!" Rin insisted, before turning around again and continuing to follow Kagome towards their target.
"Oh lighten up Sango," Kagura headed for the breakfast buffet already set up at seven in the morning, "just because you don't want to doesn't mean you should stop them." She bit into a croissant, "mmm, I love this school, Fuyu may be a complete psychopath but she's got the right idea about food."
Sango flicked Kagura on the back of the head, then demoness mouthed 'ow' and bit Sango when she tried to steal a slice of toast.
Kagome looked over her shoulder at the two girls fighting over a piece of bacon, "and they think we're childish." She shook her head, then took a step closer, Rin moving up to her side, then slowly they both reached out and…rubbed Inuyasha's ears.
The hanyou jumped up, and whirled around, standing as he did so and knocking over the plastic chair he'd been sitting on.
"Oh, shit." Rin whispered, hiding behind Kagome.
Inuyasha glared down at the two, Kagome backed away a little, then burst out; "but it was so tempting! They're so cute and fluffy!"
Inuyasha groaned and covered his face with a hand, while Miroku stood a few feet away and sniggered. "Oh shut up." He snapped at his friend, who backed off instantly. Then he turned back to Kagome, "there is something seriously wrong with you if you give in to such a stupid temptation."
"Hey!" Rin stuck her head out from behind Kagome, "we held out for a whole week!"
Kagura came over, nodding, she swallowed her mouthful of toast and added, "That's pretty impressive."
Sango sighed, "They're not that cute." Kagome shot her a death glare, "ok, ok, they're that cute." Kagome smiled sweetly and turned her head back to Inuyasha.
Miroku came forward, "I can sympathize with them." Sango saw it coming and grabbed his wrist, twisting his arm behind his back, "ow, ow, ow." Then she let go, Miroku rubbed his arm with a hurt expression on his face, "why must you be so cruel? It is simply my way to show appreciation for your beauty."
"If your hand finds my butt ever again then my fist will find your face, understood?"
Miroku nodded, very afraid of Sango's threat, mostly because he didn't doubt she'd go through with it.
Inuyasha smirked, and too late he noticed Kagome's peeved look, "no, wait!"
"SIT BOY!"

Inuyasha groaned, holding an icepack to his forehead.
"Sorry." Kagome muttered again, but he just sent her a death glare and she went back to looking at her feet and moping.
"Kagome, Inuyasha." The secretary gave them a small, fake smile, "please go through to the principal's office."
The two hanyous got up and pushed open the wooden door into said office, they quickly sat down, neither looking the principal in the eye.
"Now, I need to find out what happened," she smiled at them, "so Kagome, could you go first?"
"W-well," she blushed, sensing the two pairs of eyes locked on her, one blaming her completely, "it was an accident."
Inuyasha 'humph'ed, "no it wasn't."
"It was, honestly, I'm really sorry." Kagome's eyes were becoming slightly teary, she really hadn't meant for him to hit his head on a table.
"You did it on purpose." He stuck his nose in the air.
"Inuyasha!" her voice was firm now, not asking him to forgive her, but ordering him.
"Ok, fine." He crossed his arms, the bruise on his forehead gone and no longer needing the ice pack.
Fuyu laughed, "Kagura was right, you two are funny to watch when you fight." Both teens closed their eyes as large, throbbing veins appeared on their heads. "Oh well, off to your first class then, it's still only 7:45."
In unison they stood, turned and headed out the doors. Once out in the hall they broke into a run, Inuyasha throwing his icepack aside. And as one they yelled "KAGURA!"
--
"Hehe, I don't remember saying that." Kagura smiled weakly, when that didn't work she tried to run, but the hanyous pushed her further into the corner, blocking out the light and any chance of escape. "HELP ME!"
--
Fuyu's earlier smile had faded, "ok, what happened this time?"
In front of her sat Inuyasha being held at bay by Miroku, Kagome being held down by Sango, and in the middle was a badly beaten up Kagura.
--
"No fair!" Kagura wailed at lunch, "I got the detention. Me! The victim!"
Inuyasha looked up from his lunch and glared at her, Kagome – sitting on his right – doing exactly the same.
"You know, you two are a lot alike." Miroku realised his mistake as soon as the words came out of his mouth, but it was too late. There was a loud crunch as two fists made contact with his face, and a crash as he fell to the floor.
--
"This has not been by best day." Kagome said, she was sitting on the steps leading up to the public library, Inuyasha next to her, both drinking smoothies as they waited for the arrival of Miroku and Sango – Kagura had shopping to do and Rin was studying at home.
"Ha! You're not the one who got their forehead smashed into a table!"
Kagome winced, "honestly, and accident."
"I know, who would want to ruin this perfect face?" Kagome flicked his ear. "Hey, that stings."
"Uh-ha." She checked her watch, "it's 4:15; they should already be here." They pulled out their phones and pressed speed-dial, and sat there, each waiting for their best friend to pick up.
"Um, hi." Kagome heard, she leant back against the step behind her, "Sango, where the heck are you? We're meant to be meeting at the library." "Sorry, something, ah, came up. I've got to go." Kagome was left to gape, she flipped her phone closed and turned to Inuyasha.
He was staring back at her, "did you hear?"
She nodded, then faced straight ahead, "they've dumped us."
"I could hear Sango's voice in the background."
"I could hear Miroku's."
"It sounded like they were at…"
"A movie." Kagome finished for him.
They turned to look at each other, then Inuyasha shrugged, "wanna study or do something else?"
She considered the possibilities for a second before answering, "I've got a good movie and a wide screen TV."
"Your place it is." Inuyasha stood and helped Kagome to her feet, she couldn't help noticing how the muscles in his arm flexed as he did so, she held back her blush until his back was turned and followed him down the steps to his car.
Thanks for reading! I hope you liked it. Please review and give me any suggestions you have!
