I love all the reviews! I have my required 15 so here you are. This one is kinda short, but you meet Kaede, the sit beads and the shikon jewel. It's pretty important.

Flashback...

Kagome was sitting in a chair in the receptionist area. She was waiting for the priciple to become avaliable. She had already mangled a paper cup from the water dispencer was becoming increasingly nervous. The secretary finaly picked up a phone and after a 'yes', she told Kagome to go on in. Kagome shakily stood and aproached the door. What would the principle be like? A huge scary demon, most likely. How else would they be able to control all these young demons? She hoped she would be able to work off the debt, since her family couldn't begin to afford to repair the room. What actually happened startled her completely.

"Ah, Kagome! Come in, come in. Have a seat. Tea?" Kagome shook her head politely at the old woman with an eye patch over her right eye wearing traditional preistess robes. "It is a most definent pleasure to meet ye." The old woman sat down behind a large desk and propped her arms on it. "Well, now. I bet your wondering why you're here."

"The fight, right?" This woman was acting like the complete oposite of what Kagome expected.

"Not directly." Huh? "I want to talk about how you fought."

"I, I don't understand."

"No human, preistess or otherwise, has the power described by the few students and teachers that witnessed it. I wanted to ask ye if ye knew how ye managed it." She seemed expectant.

"I don't know, m'am." Kagome wasn't sure how she should feel. Relieved? Sorry? All she felt was confused. She thought she was in trouble. What is this old lady talking about?

"Kaede," she corected automatically. "Well I do, and it is a most amazing explanation. I've been waiting for it to return. I thought for sure it would come back in a priestess, but I supose it knows best."

"Pardon, what? What is 'it'?" Was this woman talking about Kagome or some object?

"The Jewl of Four Souls, dear." She explained the lengthy legend behind the important pink marble. How it was forged, how it was used by demons and humans for the wrong reasons, the preistess that took the jewel to protect it, how she was wounded by some one she trusted, and how she had taken it to hell with her. Kagome's eyes widened through out the whole story till she was sure they would fall out of her head.

"My dear, ye are the reincarnated priestess, and ye have the Shikon No Tama inside of ye. Ye have immense powers while ye posses it, but, ye also have a curse. When it is found out that ye own it, every demon will be out to get it. The jewel reflects the soul of the owner. With ye, the jewel is pure. Should some demon with the wronge intentions hold it, it will become tainted. Ye can not allow the jewel to become tainted. That demon will become beyond powerful and then no one will be able to stop the destruction that will follow.

"It can not remain inside of ye, however. Demons would have no problem killing ye to gain the jewel. I will prepare tonight and after school tomarrow I will remove it for ye. I have a chain that will hold it around yer(I don't know how to put you're in old lady talk) neck, and as long as ye do not give it willingly, the jewel can not be removed from there unless ye die. Are you willing to let me do this?" What choice did Kagome have? Kaede just said demons would start wanting to kill her for it.

"Alright. I suppose I have to." Kagome looked down. She was a reincarnated priestess? Put that on your resume. How had she gotten this responcibility? She couldn't even take care of the cat by herself. Now she had some price jewel to her name that she had to protect for the sake of the world. Great school here.

Kaede nodded. "I will perform the ritual tomarrow. I'm afraid I do not have the right tools to do it here. Would ye mind coming to my house after school?" Kagome nodded absentmindedly, still lost in thought. A day ago her only problem had been fitting in and watching Miroku's hands. How had her life completely flipped like this with out her seeing it coming? Kaede was no longer looking at the young girl but running through her files, cabinets, drawers, stands, even a trophy case. She finally found what she was looking for. She came back to Kagome with a small box. "Here, open this," she instructed before sitting in her seat again. Kagome opened the top half of the box and stared at the strange object. On a simple white cushion was a circle of beads. There were brown beads with a white tooth-shaped bead bewteen every two brown ones.

"What is it?" Kagome looked up at the wise old woman.

"It is a submission rosery(sp? I just took rose and made it into my word). It is used apon unruly and dangerous demons. Only a word from ye and it will work. I have a feeling you will be needing it shortly. Take it and go. I believe you were supposed to meet some one?" She looked mischieviously at her before turning to some paperwork on her desk. Kagome bowed slightly before rocketing for the door. She grabbed her bag and ran home to grab some money before she went to the mall with Sango.

OoOoOoO

I know, this one is REALY short, but its my first flashback and I needed to find a way to put in the jewel and the sit beads. I love those beads and it wouldn't be Inuyasha and Kagome with out them!

15 more reviews or, in addition to the old threats, I will turn this SessxKago. I was tempted to do this anyway and I realy like the pairing, so take this one seriously.
