RECAP:
"Don't you see...? She betrayed me... No... She betrayed us!" Sango said finally managing to regain her composure once more. "That girl isn't the Kagome that we once knew..." Sango said as tears rolled down from her eyes as they entered the class.
Kagome had chosen her side, and there was nothing that they could possibly do at the meantime to bring back the Kagome that they once knew.
CHAPTER 7: Reflections
The day went on normally after the incident earlier almost all the students have completely shut their mouths closed which made the tension in the school creepy. Although creepy was an understatement for the students in the university. Everything was practically fine for the group no one was messing around with Sango due to the fact that Kagome was no where to be found crossing there path and that Sango was completely scary when she's mad.
"Where the heck is Kagome! I am so going to make her pay..." Sango said as she was almost on the edge of screaming and going on a rampage.
"Calm down Sango... just take a deep breath your scaring almost all the students." Rin said as she was calmly walking. "Especially me, your practically scaring everybody."
"She's right Sango, you should forget about what Kagome did what's important is why she did it." Kikyo said.
"Actually nothing's important what's done is done." Sango said as she sighed, she knew that sooner or later she will know why exactly Kagome did it but deep down inside the only thing that matters for her is how to reach out to her best friend once again.
"I'll talk with her, this whole thing started because of me." Kikyo said with sadness in her eyes she knew that it was her fault for just intruding to Kagome's life once again.
"No, you're not going to talk to her, I will." Inuyasha said as he was walking with a scowl on his face. It was already enough for him that Kagome act that way; she never actually understood why he distanced himself away from her. It was partially his fault for not explaining to Kagome at all.
"Let's just stop this conversation and just go back to the mansion." Rin said with an annoyed tone, from the 4 of them Rin was the one who was annoyed with Kagome recently if anyone had a thing or two to teach Kagome it was her.
Not wanting to continue the conversation any longer the group silently continued walking back to their mansion.
Meanwhile at the Shikon Dorm
Time seemed to pass slowly as if something made it go slower twilight was almost approaching which marks the end of the day and the start of night. Here inside the most prestigious dorm in the campus, dark secrets lie inside which comes alive during night.
"Cheers for Kagome!" the twins Lin and Chin said as they made a toast for Kagome who succeeded with her recent initiation.
"Did you see the look on her face?" Chizo said with an amused tone apparently she was enjoying this drinking session after all it was a tradition to drink if ever they were successful in pulling something off.
"That was hilarious I know" Kagome said as she drank her martini apparently she was beginning to like this kind of life, being appreciated, valued, trusted, and basically everything. She was enjoying this moment since this event was in honor of her triumph against Sango.
"You impress me Kagome I didn't know you were this good." Jinza said as she drank her fourth martini apparently the girl was used to drinking.
"Yeah you sure do..." Sanchi said with an annoyed tone as she finished her third bottle of beer apparently she wasn't interested with Kagome's success she was rather disappointed at her.
Kagome didn't notice the tone of her room mate due to her happiness. She was feeling like everybody respected her, looked up to her. She never received this kind of treatment from her former friends. Although she had to admit a part of her still holds a bit of guilt inside but she chose to ignore the fact that it exists.
"Alright everyone let's clean this mess up and get our beauty rest, we still have weekend bonding time tomorrow." Chizo said as she got up from her seat she hasn't drunk much knowing that she didn't want to get a hung-over.
No one defied Chizo not even Jinza, so without complaining everybody cleaned up their own mess and went back to their own private heaven.
Kagome and Sanchi were the first to finish cleaning so they hurriedly got up stairs and locked there room. It was like a normal night inside just like any other room in a dorm, after cleaning up the two went to their beds although they didn't automatically drifted to sleep.
"You aren't coming later?" Kagome asked as she was stroking her hair with her favorite brush which was given by Sango. Even if she shunned Sango out of her life she still kept a part of their friendship. That fact can't be denied.
"Nope... got my own plans" Sanchi said as she was grooming her self although she still had messed up hair. "Enjoying yourself?" she said with a sarcastic tone.
This time Kagome noticed the tone and felt a pang of guilt inside of her.
"What do you mean?" Kagome answered.
"Don't act up all innocent, all this fame for the expense of your friend who's been there for you." Sanchi said.
"She isn't a friend she's a traitor." Kagome answered back she doesn't want to fight with her new room mate but this was becoming personal.
"Fine, I'm not gonna push in further not my problem." Sanchi said with a calm voice making Kagome more irritated. Knowing that Kagome wasn't going to argue anymore she quickly flopped to her bed and slept.
Kagome choosing to ignore her room mate's hatred towards her actions decided to imitate her and just sleep. Still she was still bothered by it, there was no denying that Sanchi had a point but for now regret wasn't an option. She was finally here, and right now she wasn't about to lose her cool with some prank they pulled after all Sango did betray her and that was enough.
Meanwhile back at the Gang's mansion
Nobody was speaking with one another as if they were all complete strangers with one another. Miroku and Sesshoumaru had already moved out and went to an exclusive dorm feeling that the mansion wasn't good enough for them making room for Kikyo and Inuyasha to stay. Apparently the group's conversation made everyone quiet and think all except for Rin.
Rin was looking at the view on the terrace since there was a beautiful night sky. It made her feel calmer and let the anger subside. Evidently she was the one who was most annoyed and irritated at Kagome for her change of attitude.
RIN'S POV
I still haven't thought about Kagome, why she did that maybe because I don't care anymore. All I know is that she changed from a nice girl to a snotty brat. That wasn't her. I know that maybe I'm becoming a little too angry at her but she deserves it I know she does but a part of me can't blame her at all. Thinking that I might lose my mind on thinking about this stuff I just went back to my room and just lied down I couldn't deny it, that me and Kagome are just the same. Then I heard somebody open my door I almost rolled out of the bed startled.
END OF POV
"Hey, you look better." Inuyasha said teasingly apparently he found Rin's temper issues funny.
"Stop the teasing Inuyasha I'm not in the mood." Rin said as she smacked Inuyasha teasingly on the head.
"Alright, just checking if you were fine. Something on your mind?" Inuyasha asked noticing that Rin wasn't in the usual mood.
"No, it's nothing Inuyasha thanks for the concern." Rin answeref she didn't like feeling weak and confused like this although she was the youngest she never really liked being treated as a child.
"Well I won't force you at all to tell me, but it's alright to get mad sometimes and I understand why you're mad at Kagome." Inuyasha said hugging Rin who was almost going to cry.
"Did Kikyo told you to check up on me?" Rin asked obviously knowing the answer.
"Hmm, so you knew huh..." Inuyasha said who was grinning since he was already busted why bother feeling melancholic and sad.
"It's obvious; you're not really much of a friend that likes to comfort people." Rin teasingly said making Inuyasha laugh.
"I guess your right, but I was still going to check on you since your like the sister I never had ever since you and Sessh were gone I kind of well missed you."
"I missed you too bro." Rin said hugging Inuyasha who gladly returned the hug.
Rin was being calmed by Inuyasha who seemed to be acting like Rin's brother but even though she was being comforted, she still didn't know if she should still get mad at Kagome but it wasn't really her that needed to decide whether to forgive and forget. It was Sango who should be thinking like this but somehow Sango wasn't really focusing her thoughts. She was still lying on her bed, worried about Kagome's sudden change. Sango didn't notice that Kikyo eventually came inside her room. Kikyo slowly sat near Sango who was suddenly startled with Kikyo's approach.
"Woah, you startled me don't ever do that Kikyo." Sango said as she quickly sat up straight, she still wasn't use to Kikyo becoming one of her friends after all they were enemies before.
"Sorry I guess you're still not used on me being around here with you." Kikyo sadly said as she was looking around the room.
"No, maybe...yes it's still hard after all, I..."
"Feel like I'm taking Kagome's place?" Kikyo said looking at Sango's direction.
"Yeah... I'm sorry Kikyo it's just... well I'm confused with Kagome and after what happened earlier I just can't stop feeling that she's totally gone." Sango said looking down on a photo that she always kept under her pillow. It was a photo of her and Kagome last summer vacation.
"No... It's alright Sango I understand, but just to make you feel a little bit better why don't I tell you something I learned a little while back." Kikyo said as she got off Sango's bed and went to the door. "If she was really a true friend for you then she'll always be there and no one can replace that feeling."
"Thanks Kikyo, I appreciate that..." Sango said as Kikyo got out of her room. Kikyo was right how could she think that Kagome would ever be replaced. She knows she can't do anything for now to get her old friend back but at least she got some good friends left to help her through.
