All words that are in bold and italic will be what is said in sign langue. Secondly words in italics will be conversations spoken in a mental link…I'll explain that later on. Lastly words that are meant to be kept to one's self will be in bold '' marks. Thank you very much and I hope you all enjoy my story.
Soon the few days before school flew by and now Kagome found herself looking for her first class. Sango, Miroku, and Inuyasha had all of their classes in the morning while she had them in the late morning early afternoon. Just as she was about to try to get a hold of her sister, Kagome heard Kagura's voice ask, "Do you need any help finding your classes Kagome?"
"Boy am I glad to see you…yeah my class starts in ten minutes and I can't find it…can you help me?" Kagome answered.
"I would love too…my sister is in the same grade you are so you might have the same classes as Kanna." Kagura stated as Kanna appeared next to her.
"Good morning Kagome." Kanna greeted.
"Good morning Kanna…what do you have first?" Kagome asked.
"I have college algebra 1324 in ten minutes." Kanna answered.
"Kagura…do you know which way we have to go?" Kagome asked with a grin on her face.
"Yes, this way the two of you." Kagura answered with a smile on her face.
As she followed Kagura to her first class, Kagome couldn't help as if she was being followed or looked at by someone. Before she could turn around and make sure that it was just her mind playing tricks on her, Kagome heard Kagura say, "When you two are done just go straight to the building across…your next class will be in there."
"Mine as well?" Kagome asked.
"If you have history then you will follow Kanna…now if you two excess me…I have to get to my own class." Kagura stated before she disappeared.
"Come Kagome-sama…we must look for good seats." Kanna whispered as she held onto her mirror tighter.
Kagome looked at the girl and how she was reacting. Once they were seat and after making sure that no one was looking, Kagome turned to Kanna and asked, "What's wrong? Is there someone watching us?"
Just as she was about to take hold of the mirror, Kagome watched as it began to glow before it showed her the image of a wolf demon with a high pony tail and light brown eyes. He was looking at something that had him so entertained that he had failed to notice the people around him. Before she could even ask Kanna who he was looking at, the mirror stopped glowing as Kanna whispered, "He's coming."
Before Kagome could as Kanna what she meant by that, Kagome heard a familiar yet unfamiliar voice say, "Hello there…would you let me sit next to you?"
After turning to see who it was that had kept her from getting her answers, Kagome glared at the wolf demon before her and said, "You're the jerk from the park…get the hell away from me."
"Uh…well I don't really know what you're saying…can you please right it down?" he answered.
After rolling her eyes at him, Kagome wrote down what it was that she had told him and waited for him to read it. Once he was done reading it, he smiled and said, "Sorry babe but I like you and I'm not giving up so easily."
Before she could hand him another note, Kagome and the whole class was forced to look forward as the professor walked in and began to hand out some papers. Thankful that they were going to be tested as to how much they knew first, Kagome did her exam as fast as she could and left the class. Just as she found a table under a nearby tree, Kagome heard her sister ask, 'What's wrong…you were really pissed off.'
'Nothing…I just got upset because I don't think I did as good as I should have on my test.' Kagome answered.
'Don't lie…what has got you so upset?' Kikiyo pressed.
'Nothing…no leave me alone.' Kagome yelled before she closed off the link.
Naraku turned to his worried mate and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Kagome…some things wrong…I think she's being followed." Kikiyo answered.
"What makes you say that?" Naraku asked.
"I know I should have just blocked her out but a part of her reached out to me without her knowing…something about a wolf demon not leaving her alone." Kikiyo explained.
"What do you want to do about it?" Naraku asked as he stood up to leave their dorm.
"Nothing for now…she's probably upset that I read her mind without her permission…let's just let her take care of it for now." Kikiyo answered as she began to make her way toward her room to get ready for school.
Meanwhile Kagome looked around and as glad to see Kanna running toward her. Once the two were seated, Kagome turned to Kanna and asked, "Can I draw you? I feel like drawing."
"If that is what you wish then you may do so Kagome-sama." Kanna answered.
"Thanks." Was all Kagome said before she pulled out her note book and began to draw Kanna.
As Kagome continued to draw she kept her guard up as she felt a pair of unwanted eyes just staring at her and Kanna. Just as she had finished drawing the last of Kanna's mirror, Kanna stood up and said, "It is time to go…our next class is going to be starting soon."
"Here…for you." Kagome answered as he handed the drawing to Kanna before getting up herself.
"Thank you very much…Kagome." Kanna answered as she took hold of the drawing and kept it with her at all times.
Once they reached their class, Kagome and Kanna took their seats. While Kagome waited for the teacher to begin the lesson, Kanna couldn't help but look around as if she was waiting for something or someone to come toward them. Kagome could still feel the same pair of eyes watching her and had had enough of it. Just as she was about to start a curse to block the viewer from staring at the two of them, the door was opened as their professor walked in saying, "Just listen to what I have to say and you all will be allowed to leave for the day."
When he had all of the classes attention, he nodded his head and continued to say, "Alright, first of all I do not allow late students so I suggest you drop my classes if you are late more than four times."
'Damn…he is tough.' Kagome thought.
"Secondly I will be giving all my test based on my notes so for those of you who bought the book feel free to read it at home. Now I will need one of you to take notes for one of your fellow classmates."
At the sound of his request, Kagome stood up with a paper in her hand that said, "I'm not deft just mute…I can hear perfectly fine."
"Very well then Ms. Higurashi then you shall be in charge of your own notes and exams…now I will leave the syllabus in the front of the class and it is your job as my students to pick one up, read it, and follow it. That is all."
Kanna turned to Kagome and asked, "Would you like me to take his soul?"
"No, it's alright…I'm sure he won't be the last asswhole I have to deal with here." Kagome answered as she stood.
"As you wish…do you have another class my lady?" Kanna asked.
"Yeah, I barely got it today…I dropped one of my other classes to get it…I have music lessons…I've decided to major in music performance." Kagome answered as she lifted her backpack over her shoulder.
"What time would that be? If you like I could go with you." Kanna offered.
"It's alright, it's not till a half hour after the start of your next class…I'll be alright on my own so don't worry about it." Kagome answered as the two began to make their way to the front to get the syllabus that was left for them.
"I see…well then I guess sister Kagura will be the one waling you to your other classes." Kanna mumbled.
"I know that you're worried about the guy that has been staring at me but don't worry…I can handle it…just please don't tell anyone." Kagome said as she stopped walked and looked at Kanna. "I'm not as weak as they all think I am."
"I understand…but you must not allow the wolf demon to touch you." Kanna whispered before she ran off to her next class.
Knowing that Kanna had probably seen Koga up to no good with her mirror, Kagome looked around and quickly placed herself in a very strong barrier as she watched Koga approach her. Not wanting to even look at him, Kagome turned around and began to make her way to the fine arts building. It was there that she would meet and start with her first music class of the year an it was there that she would and could be safe from the wolf demon.
'I just don't like the way I feel around him…it's as if I'm trying to remember something but a part of me doesn't want to remember him.' Kagome thought as she quickly ran into the fine arts building. Once inside she no longer felt as if she was being followed, or as if she was being stared at. The barrier that only allowed those with music or art classes had token effect and she was safe for the time being.
Meanwhile, Sango and Miroku looked at their friend as he continued to pay attention for once in his college life to the professor. They all had different majors but that didn't stop them from creating a club where they could still practice what they had learned since the age of ten. Just as the shock wore off, Sango turned to Miroku and asked, "What do you think is wrong with him?"
"I have no idea…he's probably trying to forget what Kagome told him when they got back to the house." Miroku answered.
*Flash Back*
Kagome and Inuyasha had just gotten home. As soon as the two had walked in they had began to argue about where she was and why she had ran off like that. Kagome had told him that she didn't want to talk about it and that was where it all began. Kagome glared at him as she tried to get her miko powers under control before she told him, "who do you think you are! You are not my father nor or you my mate or intended. You have no right to demand of me to tell you where I was or what I was doing!"
"I have every right you wench because I don't need you costing us the tournament just because you were to stupid to realize that running off like that was dangerous!" Inuyasha yelled at her.
"Pull your head out of your ass and listen to yourself. If I made it into this team then I'm sure as hell I can take care of myself so fuck off and leave me alone." Kagome had calmly told him before she ran into her room and locked herself in.
*End of Flash back.*
"I guess your right…I just hope he doesn't over does it at practice today." Sango stated.
"I'm sure he won't." Miroku told her as the two turned their attention and began to right down their own notes.
'Did they forget that I could hear every word they said to each other?' Inuyasha thought angrily as he tried to keep his mind in a calm state.
It was true, he had over done it but that was just because of an act they had decided to put on so that no one would realize that he had found her and not the other way around. However it had gone too far when he saw the hurt in his eyes. Hell, she couldn't blame him; he was still confused and wondering why he had been the only one to find her when no one could. It was as if a part of her unknowingly to her had called out to him for his comfort. Just as the class had finished, Inuyasha looked out the window to find Kagome and Kanna separating from one another. It was then that he noticed Koga, the guy form the park staring at Kagome.
'What the hell is that wolf doing…wait…Koga…shit it's that bastard…Sesshomaru caught him with that bastard that was running a whore house not too long ago…wait he broke out…Koga is working for him…shit…I have to get to her.' Inuyasha thought as he quickly got his things together before taking his leave to his next class.
Just as Inuyasha had reached the outside of the building, he found no sign of Koga or Kagome. Before he could even start to track her down, Inuyasha was surprised when he heard a voice ask, "Looking for someone?"
"No, I thought I saw something…" Inuyasha growled as he turned to face Miroku.
"Well come on…we need to go to our next health class before we have lunch." Miroku stated.
"Yeah and after that we have to go to the gym for practice, we don't want to start off late on our first day." Sango added as she walked out with her chem. Book in hand.
"Feh, whatever…so long as the wench doesn't mess up, we'll learn group moves faster and train longer." Inuyasha growled.
"When is the first tournament?" Miroku asked.
"Its in the end of next week…it's going to be at the community college here in town." Inuyasha answered as he turned to Sango. "Just make sure she shows up and ready for practice."
"I will…my next class is in the same building as she's in…I'll grab her so that we'll all have lunch together." Sango hissed before leaving her friend and boyfriend to go to their classes.
"You really need to learn how to talk to girl's right man." Miroku said as he shook his head from side to side.
"This coming from the pervert that got dumped how many times for touching other girls in high school?" Inuyasha asked in a deep growl.
"We're talking about you here, not me my friend." Miroku replied as he began to walk away.
Having nothing more to say, Inuyasha just followed his friend as he kept an eye out for Koga or Kagome. He had been able to see the face she made and knew that she knew that she was being followed by that guy. It was then that it hit him that Koga was back in college. Knowing that his friend knew everything about anything in the school, Inuyasha took hold of Miroku and looked around before he asked, "Have you heard anything about Koga?"
"Not really…that ass whole disappeared after his mate was kidnapped." Miroku answered. "I'm thinking that she left him."
"Oh." Inuyasha said. 'If Miroku doesn't know then he might just be working for that bastard after…he might not even be enrolled in any of the classes.'
"Why are you asking about him?" Miroku asked.
"I thought I saw him on campus…that's why I ran out." Inuyasha answered.
"If you want I can ask around and find out if it really was him…but the best thing to do right now is call your brother." Miroku replied as they walked into the building.
"Yeah." Was all Inuyasha said as he and Miroku walked into their class room.
Meanwhile, the wolf prince sat in his class as he tried to figure out why it was that Kagome had changed her class last minute. She still needed her science class so why had she dropped it and replaced it with a different class. Once in which there was no way he could be in since it was a privet lesson with her music instructor. 'Damn it…if I don't get at least a lock of her hair soon, I'm going to have a harder time getting closer to her…that mutt already saw me as it is.' Koga thought angrily as he tried to figure out his next move. Koga wanted nothing more than to be at his mate's side once more, to prove to her that it was not her fault but his own for luring her into that mans hands.
Yes, it had been by his own hands that his mate had placed under a spell and forced to work for that man just like he had been forced to work for him. Koga was the future of the wolf demon clan and would do nothing to harm it, it was why he had token full responsibility when one of his tribe members hand accidently attacked the man that he now held hatred for. Although by doing this, he had given up his right as prince until he found his own way to break free from this man.
'I will have her…and once I turn her in…I will be freed to live with my mate in peace…I will have her in my arms and at my side once more.' Koga thought sadly as he continued to take his notes.
After taking all of his notes and running out of the class, Koga ran out and quickly went to find Kagome in hopes of running into her before it was too late; before she would meet up with someone that was protecting her from him. Just as he had reached the side of the building saw Kagome walking out of the building with a smile on her face and next to a neko demon.
"I'm so happy that I'm not the only one here that went through this shit." Kagome stated.
"Don't worry about it…my boyfriend learned as soon as he found out…it didn't take him long and I was so happy that he learned sign langue." The neko demon stated as she couldn't help but smile.
"But doesn't the silence get to you? I mean don't you get tired of hearing nothing?" Kagome asked.
"Of course I do…that's why when he finished learning I told him that I wanted him to talk to me and that I was happy that I didn't have to make sure I had something to write with. He understood so he speaks to me and understands me." She answered.
"That is bad ass…well I'll go ahead and see you on Friday…I have to get to my club practice right now." Kagome said as she checked the time.
"Don't worry about it…it was nice meeting you Kagome." She stated.
"And it was nice meeting you Kirara…I'll see you later." Kagome said before running off.
As she made her way to the gym that Sango had token her before, Kagome could feel the same pair of eyes on her and starting to get closer to her. Not wanting to get late to practice or having to deal with the annoying wolf demon, Kagome took in a deep breath and used her vampire speed and out ran him while using her miko energy to hide her scent, aura, and trail. 'I don't think he'll follow me to practice but if he does then I'm going to have Sango and Miroku help me out…don't really think Inuyasha feels like helping me out at the moment.' Kagome thought sadly as she quickly ran into the gym and got changed.
A/N: well there you have it…another chapter done and over with…I have finally thought of the perfect why to make this longer and a lot more interesting then what I had planned it to be. Please let me know what you all think.
