Another update, yay for you, a world record for me. Remember, review,review review!!
Kikyo was sitting down in Sango's bedroom with her sleeping bags with her fingers crossed together nervously, waiting for the response that her friend would have to the tory she just told. Sago stared at Kikyo dumbly.
"You really aren't like your sister." Kikyo looked at her. "What do you mean?"
Sango layed down inside her sleeping bag, her arm leaning on the floor, the her holding her head up. "You guys may be twins, but your personalities are completely different. Even after all of this happened, I don't see you getting sad or anything. Kagome would've probably used up a whole box of Kleenex by now."
Kikyo looked sternly at Sango. "Is something up with my eyes?" Sango raised an eyebrow. "Uhh...no? Why?" "Nothing." Kikyo laid back down. "Inuyasha said that I hide so much behind my eyes." Sango inspected Kikyo's eyes. "I don't get it." "Me neither." "I'd never thought he'd be the type to say something tso profound."
Kikyo gave out a halfhearted chuckle. When the laughing stopped, Kikyo looked at Sango and Sango knew what she was going to ask.
"What was up with Kagome today?" Sango shrugged. "I guess she was affected from last night too." Kikyo looked at the floor. "She's never ever acted like that before...aybe she's mad he wasn't partners with Inuyasha in math class." Sango slid deeper into her bag and yawned. "Probably. But would Kagome really get mad over something like that?" Kikyo climbed into her own sleeping bag.
"Not the Kagome we know." Sango clapped her hands and the lights went off. Then she rolled onto her stomach.
"Kikyo, do you still like him?" she asked softly, wanting to know if her friend was really over him. Kikyo opened her opened and let out a sigh. "I don't know. If I did like him, it would be pointless, Kagome's crazy about him." Sango hugged Kikyo's head gently.
"Poor Kikyo." Kikyo pretended to laugh and she rolled onto her stomach. "What about you, I've seen those looks you give Miroku!"
Sango blushed and hid underneath her covers. "Shut up, I could I ever like a hentai like him!" Kikyo grinned. "You're smiling I know it!" No response but a very accentuated exhale. Kikyo giggled, then smiled sadly. "At least you have a chance."
Sango came out of her covers and saw that Kikyo was lying down on her bag and a very awkward pause erupted between the two. "Kikyo-"
"No," came a muffled voice from under the covers. "I'm ok. After all-" Kikyo pulled down the covers to reveal her sad, smiling face. "I don't even like him." Sango gave up and layed down. "I still can't believe your mom came home when..." Another pause.
"Good night, then.""Good night."
The next morning, Kikyo and Sango got up and got ready for school, and soon after, the two were laughing and talking about school and whatver else came to mind. Until they crossed paths with Kagome again.
"Kikyo, where were you yesterday?!" she demanded. "Oh shit, Kagome, I was at Sango's." Kikyo rolled her eyes. Kagome put her hands on her hips. "You could've told me." Kiko looked at Kaome sternly.
"I could've told you, but you were too busy screaming your ass off to listen." Kagome looked taken aback,then guilty. "I'm sorry Kikyo, I don't know what came over me...It's just, when I saw him with you...You know what, whatever, sorry, it's not like you like him or anything!" She said quickly. Kikyo nodded and smiled, weakly. "Yeah..." Kagome turned. "Anyways, I'll see you in class! Bye!"
Out in a distance, she saw Kagome catch up with Inuyasha. "He must've slept over." Sango said. Kikyo turned to her. "What! No way!" Sango laughed. "Just kidding, chill out Kikyo, I've never seen you so worked up!" Kikyo quickly tried to brush it off.
"Pssh," she snorted. "I don't care, it's just that...I didn't think Kagome wasn't that type of person." Sango laughed. "Kikyo, you are so transparent." "Whatever." By the time they reached the school, the bell had already rung and the girls rushed to their classes.
"Nice of you to join us Miss Higurashi." the sensei sternly pointed his pen towards an the clock. Kikyo nodded, bowed and walked to the desk. "I'm afraid you won't be joining the remainder of our class time, Miss Higurashi. He pointed towards the door now. "Go to the principal." Kikyo opened her mouth, but was interuppted. "Miss Higurashi, I suggest you don't give me any excuses on why you were late for class. I assre you that you will find your friend Sango there as well." Kikyo rolled her eyes and alked down the hall to meet her friend, Sango.
"Hey," the girl said, looking up. "You have to see the principal too?" Kikyo sat down next to Sango. "Yeah, but really, people come in late all the time, why does he have to bitch about it now?" Sango sighed and the door opened. "Kikyo, Sango, you may come in now." The girls looked at eachother and slowly stepped inside. Both of them had never been in the principal's office before. Why couldn't they have just had detention?
To their surprise, they weren't the only ones there. Kagome and INuyasha were sittng in front of the large wooden desk. The principal looked at them with brown beady eyes. "Sit down please." Kikyo and ango shuffled into their chairs, ready to take a harsh beating. The principal resembled a hawk with her large nose and scary eyes. "Now would you please descirbe the events of yesterday after your math class Kikyo?"
Kikyo took a deep breath. "Before I do, may I ask what this has to do with my tardiness?" she asked slowly, picking out her words carefully so there wouldn't be further punishment. The principal's lip thinned before answering the bold question. "This has nothing t do with the time you arrived to school, now if you please, I must ask you why you are here." Kikyo nodded. "Yes ma'am."
"Yesterday, Inuyasha and I caused a small disturbance in class which angred Kagome. After class, Kagome talked us and...that's it." The principal nodded and sighed, leaning back on her huge leather chair. "I'm afraid you have left out quite a few details, you are not lying. This is the report I got from the staff and students:" She pulled out a white zerox paper form many others and read from it "After class, Kagome confronted you two in a physical manner. This became a so called 'chickfight' and-"
Inuyasha tried to muffle his laughter on the way the old woman said chickfight, but to no avail. Luckily the principal ignored him and continued. "And Sango and Inuyasha here helped break it up." She stopped reading and looked up to look at the four. "May I ask what kind of physical contact there was?" Kikyo looked at the ground, she didn't want to say it. "There wasn't much..." Kagome cut in impatiently.
"There was pushing and slapping ma'am." Everyone looked surprised at Kagome's sudden outburst. The principal swallowed. "Thank you for your honesty Kagome." The principal looked at all four. "Since this your first offence, you three," the principal turned to Inuyasha. "And your second," the principal looked at all four again. "You won't be punished, but you all stay out of trouble. YOu may go back to class now except Miss Kagome." All for looked confused. The principal nodded to them and Kikyo, Sango, and Inuyasha left.
"I wonder what that's about..." Kikyo thought aloud. Sango skipped ahead and turned around so shewas walking backwards and talking to their faces. "Who cares? He's probably just giving her a warning or something, since she started the whole fight."
Kikyo walked on with a distant look on her face. "I guess..."
"Miss Kagome, we've been watching you for 6 months and your behavior has been...let's just say, not typical." She walked up to Kagome with her arms crossed and a very concerned look on her wrinkled face. "It has come to the school's pschycologist's attention that we have found that your...condition might need treatment..." Kagome stared at the teacher blankly.
"Excuse me? I don't understand." The principal looked Kagome in the eye. "Yesterday was a sure example of your mental condition, and so-"
"What?!" Kagome cried out. "I don't have a mental condition!!" The principal put her hands on the young girl's shoulders, forcing her to silence herself. "Please, Miss Higurashi, let me explain. You do have a mental condition. We're still not sure what it is, and we didn't think that it was that serious, but the fight yesterday could've been much worse. We must get you treatment, do you understand?" The principal walked back up to her desk and put her finger on the speaker.
"Mrs. Haun, please come to the office, we need to have a discussion. Please come to the office." After a very long silence, a very out-of-breath teacher came rushing in. "I came as soon as possible ma'am." The principal nodded.
"As you see, we have Miss Higurashi here. Please sit down." The lady took a seat beside a very scared Kagome. Thoughts were rushing in and out of her head, wondering if this was a cruel punishment or a test to see how she would react.
"Now Mrs. Haun, please explain, in detail, what we are saying to Miss Higurashi here." The teacher nodded and turned to Kagome.
"Kagome, over the months we've seen a change in your behavior in school. We don't know if it was just in school or not, but the was you react to certain things, like pop quizes, has been on the borderline of violent. You see, from the...events that happened yesterday, we find that you might be a danger to your fellow peers."
The lady waited for a response. Kagome answered as calmly as she could muster. "So what are you going to do to me?" The principal butted in. "I certainly wouldn't say it in such a harsh manner, but thknk of it as...a suspension for the rest of the year. Only you haven't done anything wrong...on purpose anyways." Kagome couldn't believe it.
She was going to be suspended for the rest of the year, away from her friends, Inuyasha, and she was sure that she couldn't get a proper education at home.
"What?! What about my classes?! What about my friends?!" The principal sighed. "We have online classes and you're friends can see you at the facility." Before Kagome could speak again, the principal cut her off. "Yes, you will be sent to a medical center and you will go through two programs for 2 months. You will not stay at home, but the school will handle all the expenses. There will be a therapy program and anger mangaement." The principal looked at Kagome with sympathetic eyes.
"I apologize for putting all this on you, but we need to make this school environment safe for everyone, including you. Next month is when you will be starting the program. It will be your home for the next two months. This may be hard, but we should fix the problem before it grows and larger."
Kagome looked down at her lap and buried her face in her hands. Muffled sobs leaked through the room and the teachers sighed.
The principal talked once more. "Talk to your friends, your family, we'll give you more information between classes. Don't worry, you can return to school the year afteer you program. You are excused."
Yes two updates in a week. I don't expect alot of reviews, but I need to get this chapter in so I can change the constant pattern of drama, romance and trying to sneak in Inu/Kik moments. I just need Kagome out of the way :) mwahaha.
Expect more in the future :)
