x-X-x

Since Kagome was more familiar with the camp, it was agreed that she would lead the guys to Cabin 4 before leading the other teams to their own cabins. With each step the guys took, Kaidoh, Momo, Eiji, and some of the freshmen grew more nervous while letting their imaginations run wild about how Cabin Four was going to look and what will happen during their stay.

'Kagome-chan said that a lot of things happen in that cabin… but what about the rest of the camp grounds…?' Momo thought, not able to stop his palms from sweating.

Kagome could see how bad Momo and the rest of the team, or most, were nervous on staying in the cabin that they were assigned and sighed as she came to a stop in front of it.

Kagome smiled, "Here is is...I'll be back after I take the rest of the teams to their cabins." She couldn't help but smile when she saw Momo pale as he saw the cabin.

Because of the stories that were told about the cabin being haunted, it was mostly left abandoned and was sometimes neglected letting some of the paint on the outside start to peel with old and dead vines creep up on its outer surface along with all other signs of neglect, it really looked abandoned and like a true haunted cabin. And the fact that the cabin had Asia's unlucky number didn't give much comfort or the benefit of doubt about it being haunted.

Kagome turned to the rest of the guys, "Follow me and I will take you all to your cabins now." She turned around and headed down the gravel path surrounded by trees.

As they came closer came to Cabin Five, the other guys saw a huge difference in appearance between it and Cabin Four.

This raised a question with Fudomine's Captain, Tachibana, "Kagome-san, why does Rikkaidai's cabin look different from Seigaku's?"

Turning to the captain, Kagome answered with a straight face, "Because of the stories of the haunting had always went on in and around the cabin, along with its location near the lake being one of the gateways to the other side, the cabin had been left almost abandoned and neglected."

"Haunted? There's no way that the place is haunted since there's no such thing as ghosts." Yagyuu of Rikkaidai said, skeptical about the supernatural and paranormal. For all he knew, all of this was based on superstition.

"Then I am guessing you don't believe in the supernatural?" Kagome asked, with the slight hint of amusement in her voice.

"No...and do you Kagome-san?" Yagyuu asked, curious, she didn't seem the typed that would believe in things like that, but one could never tell.

Kagome turned smiling at him and the rest of the group, as she started walking backwards, "Of course! I lived at a shrine most of my life...so why wouldn't I believe in it? You haven't the slightest clue what is around you!" She turned her head around as she gave a light giggle at the groups stunned expression.

"You lived at a shrine most of your life...? You didn't live in the states with your parents and Echizen?" the curious voice of Kirihara asked.

Kagome blinked before she stopped, the rest coming to a stop also, "I guess since no one asked...I never had to explain why I moved here...you're the first ones to really ask..." Kagome's eyes darkened, her lips went into a thin line, "well...where should I start..."

Everyone was quiet, especially Atobe since he knows the gist of it all. He was waiting to see how Kagome will act once she told everyone.

With a sigh, Kagome looked up at the cloudy sky that wasn't blocked by the trees before she started, "I guess… to make a long explanation short and simple… Ryoma and I are really half siblings." Turning her attention to the boys and seeing their confused expressions, she elaborated, "We have the same father… but different mothers."

"How the heck did that happen?"

"Before my dad went to America, he was high school sweethearts with my mother. Some time after he returned to Japan for awhile, they started dating again but it wasn't the same. They just grew apart and felt it was best to break up… but before he went back to the states for good, they spent one last night together. I was born out of wedlock a couple years before dad married Rinko, Ryoma's mom."

Once they were shown where their cabins were, Kagome went to leading Hyotei to their cabin by taking another route. Hyotei was silent as they followed before Atobe gave a soft unnoticeable sigh and making his way to Kagome before resting a comforting arm around her shoulders and bringing her into hug.

Kagome gave him a soft smile before returning the gesture as if to say that she was fine even though she could feel that everyone was tense about her telling them about what happened to her family.

After leaving Hyotei at their cabin, Kagome made her way back to, what she always loved to call "Hellish Cabin Four". She chuckled at the memory of when she first spent the night at the old cabin, as frightened as she used to of the events that took place. She used to get so easily scared of what went on there but now that she looked back on it… the thrill of it all was actually fun since there wasn't any spirits that meant any ill intent.

'They were never full-scale poltergeists to set off any deadly alarm. But I wonder how the guys will take the events as the spirits sense that we're their new guests after so long…' Kagome thought with an excited grin before said grin faltered a bit at the memory of one thing that just wasn't nice.

Turning to the forest, Kagome's expression became sober… knowing what lurked in the shadows of the forest.

"As long as everyone stays within their cabins after eleven in the evening, they're all safe from wetting themselves." She muttered to herself. Whatever lurked in the forest was harmless but the noise it made and the way it looked wasn't really comforting…

When her team's cabin came into view, Kagome picked up her pace a bit before hearing couple of the regulars and the freshmen, who came with them, start to scream.

Kagome sighed as she ran to where the scream came from, ' they must have done something stupid.'

As she reached the cabin she opened the door, and was greeted with the site of four scared freshman in the corner with two regulars, Eiji and Momoshiro.

Kagome shook her head, "what is going on here?" All the regulars turned their attention to her.

The freshmen and Eiji and Momo ran to her, the freshmen grabbing her legs and talking a mile a minute just scared of what could've spooked them while Eiji and Momo did the same, only holding her. Not wanting to get winded by so many trying to talk to her at the same time, Kagome struggled out of their hold and hollered, "ONE-AT-A-TIME!"

Once everyone was quiet, she gave a sigh before asking calmly, "Now calmly guys… what happened while I was gone?"

Sakuno gathered up the courage to speak for everyone, "Um… we were just unpacking when we heard a noise. We looked around to see what it could be before Eiji-senpai and Momo-chan-senpai came in, asking if we wanted to look around the camp. Then all of a sudden some of the furniture started rattling and one of the old ornaments on the wall just flew across the room and almost hit Horio-kun!"

"Then we heard someone telling up to get out of the cabin before some sort of figure appeared, looking bloody." Eiji added almost looking like he was about to cry out of fright.

After everything that was said, Kaito started to look pale while the others looked around the place nervously.

Kagome's brow furrowed a bit before asking Horio, "Horio-kun… did you say anything about ghosts not really existing?"

"Uh… I may have said something along those lines… why?"

"Because one of the ghosts here is a wanderer, and she's VERY touché about people insulting ghosts, considering that she is one."

All of the people glared at Horio as he backed up to the wall scratching the back of his head in embarrassment. Kagome sighed, shaking her head, 'It seems like this visit will be...very entertaining.

Kagome smiled at the boys, "Anyway why don't we all unpack! Then we can go to the dining hall where Sakuno and I can start cooking, and well along with anyone who can ACTUALLY cook."Kagome gave a sideways glance at Ryoma.

The regulars noticed this and gave curious looks when Ryoma pulled his cape farther down so they couldn't see his face.

Kagome saw Sakuno who was silently giggling off to the side, she grinned, "Well Sakuno and I are going to the separate room in the cabin! So come tell us when your done unpacking!" Kagome grabbed Sakuno's are and dragged her through the door that was in the end of the cabin. It connected to another room, mostly for the Councilors, but since they were girls they needed a room to themselves...they didn't want to bunk in the same room as guys...it would be HIGHLY embarrassing...for both parties.

After Kagome and Sakuno were gone, Horio turned to the others saying, "M-maybe what happened was just a trick or something?"

All his fellow freshmen and upperclassmen looked at him like he was nuts since they all saw that there was no way that what had happened was a trick.

Ryoma sighed before speaking, "There's no way Kagome can lie about the paranormal, especially when she's been here before and experienced these happenings first hand. It's best to listen to her advice about speaking insultingly about the dead." With that said, Ryomo went to unpacking his things.

The others started to follow his example with a couple agreeing about heeding whatever Kagome could tell them about what happens in the cabin. This went double for Kaidoh, Momo, and Eiji.

Once everyone was done unpacking, Ryoma knocked on the door, telling the girls everyone was done unpacking.

Coming out of the room, Kagome led them to the Mess Hall after the other teams had met them outside the cabin since none of them really knew the way.

As they arrived all the other teams had arrived, and there were some couches from other schools there too, Kagome smiled and waved at Coach Ryuzaki.

Kagome turned to Ryoma and the rest of the team, "I am have to go see Coach Ryuzaki, she wants me to be there for the announcement and the revealing of the schedules." Kagome smiled at them before dragging Sakuno with her to see Coach Ryuzaki and the rest of the couches.

After Kagome and Sakuno left to see their coach, Fuji spoke up asking Ryoma, "When Kagome-san mentioned her and Sakuno-chan making dinner and letting anyone who can cook to help them, why did Kagome-san look to you, Echizen?"

"Oh yeah! O-chibi, do you really know how to cook?" Eiji asked, really curious.

Ryoma's brow twitched slightly under the brim of his cap before shrugging. It was true that Ryoma can cook but he wasn't as good as his sister or mother, even though they've always told him that he had a knack for cooking.

"Nothing." Ryoma gave a slight glare at Fuji who brought it up. He didn't want his team mates knowing...it was kind of embarrassing.

Some of the team was about to protest until their attention was called up front.

"Ok, Ok everyone calm down and take a seat."

The announcement was just welcoming them to the camp, to how long they were going to stay, as well as awareness of the rules and the curfew of when lights go out, woods are off limits unless you have a guide with you, and what time every one should wake in the morning for breakfast and morning training. And the schedules, as Kagome announced, were just times of training to take place as well as what time meals will be. Before the meeting was adjourned, it was also mentioned that a couple days before they leave for home, everyone can have a few days off relaxing, playing around and such.

Once everything was said and done, it was time for dinner with those who were able and willing to cook making their way to the kitchen. Kagome stayed behind a bit, looking to her brother as if silently asking him if he was coming to help cook or not.

When he sighed and stood up Kagome grinned, and headed back to the kitchen to see who showed up. There was Oshitari Yuushi from Hyotei, Fuji Yuuta from St. Rudolf, Kirihara Akaya from Rikkai Dai, and from Seigaku it was Eiji Kikumaru, Takeshi Momoshiro, Fuji Shuusuke, and Oish Shuichiro, and Sakuno were there, and now Ryoma.

"Ok...lets get started..." Kagome pointed to people from Seigaku, "You all are in charge of the main course...well except Eiji and Ryoma. You two will be making dessert with me!" Kagome smiled, "Now GET STARTED!"

Everyone started to get to work, about an hour in Kagome was checking on how everything was going and stopped by each person to see what they were doing.

BOOOOOOMMM!

This was what echoed through, followed by a scream.
