Rushed

Chapter One: The new school

Kagome Higurashi was a 17 year old girl with stunningly royal blue eyes, long wavy black hair that was tented with nature blue, grazing her lower black. She was all of 5'3, and a half with sun-kissed skin. She spent the summer with her father in the states, this would be the first time that she was back since the accident. A single tear flowing down her cheek, still crying when the thoughts cruise through her mind, never mind the three months she took to try to forget. Feeling like it broke her down only yesterday, without whipping the single, wet, salty reminder, she lets herself feel, and think about that day for the last time.

Flash-back- 3 months ago –

Kagome was late coming home from school, forgetting all about the after-school fundraiser that she all but agreed to attend and help, thanks to her three best friends. 'Damn, mom's going to be so mad at me, I promised her that I would watch Sota, I didn't want her to miss that party at her work. She deserves it for how much of herself she has given to that place. I was on my way home, even trying to leave early when they attacked me, told me I wasn't going to get out of this one. Damn it all.' Talking to herself she almost knocks over a man walking way too fast for his own good. Stuck in her thoughts, when her front door comes into her view she walks faster, hopefully trying to lessen the amount of days her mother is not going to speak to her. Throwing herself through her front door, she announces with a wince ready for the bitching to start raining down on her.

"Umph, Mom! I'm home!" she bellows

Instead of the buzzing of the nagging storm she was prepared for, nothing but silence reached her ears. Letting her back-pack fall slack off her shoulder, bouncing off the floor, she slips off her shoes, creeping around the entry way towards the kitchen.

"Mom? Sota! Hey where are you guys?" Confusion strutting across her face, while her eyes watch the eeriness of the empty kitchen.

"Hello? Anybody home? Mom, Sota!" Worry now trying to force itself into her thoughts, only to be pushed back by an excuse. 'No, mom must have got tired waiting, and took Sota with her.' Whipping the imaginary nervousness sweats from her forehead, she walks towards the living room to watch television, for the last time till her mother grounds her for a month. Stopping in her tracks once her feet reached the edge of the arch-way for the opening in the wall, something about this is not right she, felt it, that feeling that her entire world was going to change. Afraid for a moment, that she was not alone she turns around looking around her quickly. 'What am I doing, look at me, I probably look utterly ridiculous.' Laughing about her actions, she forces the reliant feelings down in herself. Caught up in her thoughts, she fiddles with her fingers, her vision blurred, not until she realizes her socks are wet with something does she clear her mind and vision. What she saw she never thought, this is not what is, thoughts going blank, her face showing ever bit of terror that she is witnessing in front of her.

"Kami's… MOM, SOTA!" screeching she flies forward at her dead mother and brother laying in each other's arms, surrounded by their blood.

-End of Flash-back-

Whipping the now river of tears that are flowing freely from her eyes, she turns out of her childhood home, shutting the door on the memories forever. Walking down towards the awaiting car, she nods her head at the driver waiting for her, with the open door. Nodding her head in thanks towards the man, she pauses before getting into the car, looking back over her shoulder she looks on more time. Engraving everything in her view of sight into her mind forever, she turns back around.

"Watch your head, Lady Kagome." the man said suddenly. Acknowledging his kindness, she ducks her head, and gets into the car. It seemed like seconds before she was being driven away from that part of her life forever, never looking back, she silently promises to herself to never let the tears fall again. She is going to be happy, for her mother, for her brother. 'This is what they would want, I love you both, watch after me.' With the end of her silent promise she lets one more tear fall down her face. Looking up towards her driver.

"Richard, let's go home." Kagome tells him smiling slightly.

"Yes, Lady Kagome." He replies with the same smile.

Two weeks later, Kagome was getting ready for her first day at her new high school; Tokyo No Tama High. She was moved into her mother's brothers home, and too be under his care until she was able to support herself; financially of course. Her uncle's name was Suki, he was a wealthy man, who was she kidding he was stinkin' filthy rich. Her mother never really talked about her uncle Suki, it was not like they were not aware of his presence, because he was always sending them present for every holiday. It was more like an understanding of why they never talked, and the time that her mother told her about him, her eyes were so full of sadness, and regret that she thought better than to push the subject any further; she would just accept his kindness for what it was. Kagome wanted to go live with her father, but after the courts did an investigation to see if he was a fit parent, they decided against it. Yes, her father was an alcoholic, he was also a caring, joking, goof-ball, who she knew lover her; but nonetheless a drunkard. It was not a big problem in Kagome's eyes, she had fun this summer with him, and that was something she was grateful for; she missed him greatly, and this incident just added to the want, and need of his fatherly comfort.

"Kagome! You'll be late for school if you don't leave now!" Suki called from downstairs, "Richard is waiting outside to take you, I'll be home late tonight!" he finished. Kagome came down the stairs just as he was finishing his call.

"Okay uncle Suki, Have a good day at work!" She replied grabbing her back-pack by the entrance of the front door. Almost running out the door, Suki stopped her and pulled her into a tight, fatherly embrace.

"If you need me for anything today Kagome, anything, just call my office and let me know. I'll immediately have Richard come get you alright, sweetheart?" Suki reassured her.

"I will, thanks uncle." She smiled warmly into his embrace.

"Alright off you go!" Suki released her with a playful, shove. Bounding down the stairs to her new giant home, towards her new awaiting car 'Well her goes nothing!' she thought quickly to herself, while jumping into the back seat. In minutes she was on her way to the new school.

The ride to school was longer than she expected, but honestly not long enough. Straightening her brown mid-thigh skirt, that she honestly thought was way too short for a high school uniform, letting her long lean legs fall outside the car, turning around and grabbing her back-pack she smiles to Richard silently thanking him for taking her to school.

"Have a good day Lady Kagome, I will be here at 3:00 to pick you up." Richard informed her.

"Thanks Richard!" She told him walking away, putting on her back-pack, and turning around she tells him have a good day, and then turns around to face the inevitable. She knew this day was going to come, and she wasn't that nervous with finding new friends, or the students talking about her; No, she was worried about her classes. She was always a sort of nerd that enjoyed learning, learning anything new, everything about it was a freshness to her and she appreciated it. Kagome had a weird memory that would be able to remember anything, and everything she saw. If she wanted to forget something, all she had to do was think and focus on it, it would disappear from her mind. Maybe not disappear but she liked to think she had control of at least one thing in her life, and if it was what went into her mind, and what didn't stay there; she was happy with that.

Looking up at the large building in front of her, she starts her walk inside, and ignored the staring. 'They are just wondering who I am.' Stepping, slowly up the steps she was able to at least face today without the nervousness of not knowing where to go. Her uncle was able to have a private tour for her this weekend, so she could collect her schedule, know her locker combination and the location of it, understand the ways to her classes, and what to expect and what not to. He was really a nice man, and she always caught herself wondering why he was not married, or have a couple children of his own?

Passing a couple of people to get through the front doors, smiling nicely at the people who looked at her, and blushed when almost every guy was looking her up and down like she was a new sports car on the market. Turning right when she got through the main entrance, to only nearly run into a couple who looked like they were in the middle of a serious conversation with the look on the young woman's face, and the undeniably red hand-printed mark across the other guys face.

"You lech!" The woman screamed, turned around and almost knocked her over.

"Oh, I'm so sorry! I didn't see you there!" She apologized.

"No, no it is alright it's my fault, I shouldn't have been watching, I'm sorry!" Kagome finished

"It's okay, there isn't much else to do, when witnessing a fight, and I would have done the same thing! I'm Sango, I don't believe we have met before, are you new here?" Sango asked

"That obvious, Uh? My name is Kagome, Kagome Higurashi." Kagome laughed blushing slightly.

"Nope! Not at all, you just look friendly, and I was wondering why I hadn't seen you before. Well, nice too meet you Kagome! Hopefully we can become great friends! " Sango told her happily.

"Well how rude of you my dear sweet Sango, why are you not introducing me to your new beautiful friend here?" The guy finished with a wink, and a pucker of his lips. Kagome, and Sango looked back towards the guy standing behind her, Kagome immediately blushing, and Sango looked like she was ready to kill that man.

"You jerk, of course you would embarrass me, and yourself in front of someone new! Ugh, I can't believe you, you…you pervert!" Sango screamed angrily, while flaring her arms up into the air, and turning around to get away from him. The man beside her, just realized she left, and ran to chase after her.

"My dear, you know that I only have sights for you." With that he punctuated his sentence with a nice touch of her ass.

Smack!

You heard it bellow down the hallway along with her bursts of frustration. Shaking her head, she realized that she might have some new friends after all. Finally noticing that she was probably missing a huge chunk of time, to go to her locker and get the books she needed or didn't. Kagome quickly gathered herself, and her thoughts and set out towards her destination.

Walking down the next hall towards the small metal door with the number 23 screwed into the top of it, Kagome twist the lock, already memorizing the combination. 'Twist left, stop at eight...Twist right stop at 22…twist left again stop at 3.' Clink the lock opened and in went the books she no longer need for the rest of her day. Taking a small breath of oxygen, she shuts her locker door to turn around only to be slammed up against it with a force that threw the new breath from her lungs.

"Eep!" Kagome screeched with closed eyes from the impact. Still to shocked too open her eyes, heart rating climbing, sweat glistening. Only when she felt the pressure of a hand traveling its way up her thigh, to the side of her hip, did she manage to open her eyes for that instant. With a huff Kagome decides to tell him off, 'The nerve of this guy!'

Suddenly blushing at the closeness of his face, she pouts with courage.

"Who the hell do you think you are?! Let go of Me!?" Kagome all but screamed. His lips now working their way up her neck toward her ear. Kagome tried to push him off, squeezing her dainty hands up on his muscles, with force but hesitation.

"Are you even listening? Let me g-"silenced by the lustful pair of golden eyes looking straight into her now fearful royal blue ones, her pleas were cut short. 'What the heck is wrong with this guy?! Why-why is he looking at me like that? He looks like he's about to eat me?!' Before Kagome could demand anything else a pair of lips can crashing down upon her own, eyes doubling their own size, gasped open mouth, she cannot, no will not believe or allow this. The multiple gasps she heard around her, all but slapped her in the face. Turning her head to the right with a quickness, she immediately breaks the lip lock. Feeling herself cringe, but react nonetheless to the kisses trailing her jaw to the side of her face, feeling his grip tighten, trying to wrap her head around what is happening, everything inside of her comes to a slamming halt at his next audacity stunt pulled.

"Your mine, got that?" he smirked, then quickly released his girl from his grasp, turning away, then looking back giving a slight grin and a wink. Poor Kagome did not know what to think, sliding her back down the lockers she sits, trying to pull herself back, bringing her fingers up to her lips, she shudders from the events. Shaking her head she stands up, and looks after him on last time, but seeing him no longer. 'Wha-I…What the hell was that all about?' shuddering to herself, she re-gathers her things, to continue to her next class.

All the while not noticing the same but different pair of gold watching her very intently.
