Summary: The final battle has ended and Kagome has to go back to her own time. After a while she gets on her feet but trouble soon meets the Higurashi family. And now she's stuck as the vice-president of Seika High. Keep in mind that Misaki is not poor and lives an ordinary life, except for the problems she has with her father, which is the cause of her hatred to men.

Chapter 2 X Fixing Flaws
In the school of Seika High, one could see the boys from year two trying to open a locked door. "This is bad! It's completely useless!" One said as they took a step back to look at their obstacle.
"LET ME OUT!"
A voice begged from behind the doors. "What do we do?!" They groaned. Suddenly one of the boys spotted a blond haired walking by. "Ah, Usui! This is terrible!" They called him over. "Kaichou said "Repent!" or something and locked him in there!" He said as he remembered the events that went down.
-Flashback-
A young man had his shirt out and some face drawn on his belly. He was dancing around the few girls in their class while the guys cheered him on. "Looky! Looky looky looky!"
But someone had reported it to the student council, and through the door walked Misaki and Kagome in. "You guys!" Misaki yelled out in rage. "I told you that I wouldn't allow any "performances" that will scare the women!" She yelled. While the boy tried to explain himself, turned to Kagome.
"Come on, you have to believe me is was really practice for the school festival!" Kagome looked at him with her big blue eyes. "Don't you think it's childish? We're in high school already, I wouldn't want my kid brother to turn out like you." She spoke harshly with a rigid face. For some reason the boys were mesmerized by her dazed look while the guy in particular wanted to cry.
"You heard her! Gondaaa!" Misaki shouted in a dark voice as she threw the boy in the supply closet and locked up the door. "Stay there and repent!" With that the vice-president and president left the gym.
-End Flashback-
"And that's what happened!" They finished. "Then he has to repent, doesn't he?" Takumi dismissed them as he went on. "C'mon, don't say that. Just help us!" Someone whined.
The boys got together. "Well? What do we do now?"
"What do we do? All we can do is steal the key, right?"
"If I remembered correctly then Angelic Vice has it."
"How will we take it?"
"It's gotta be a surprise attack and she'll have to be alone! There's no way we can take it when Kaichou is around."
"We should follow her and then…"
"Move." Before any had a chance to ask why, a path was made and Takumi broke down the door. A crying Gonda was looking with hope and admiration at his savior. "Let's go." Takumi said with a charming smile as white roses appeared behind him.
"So cool! So strong and cool!"
"Fix that door." Takumi walked away while they celebrated the return of Gonda. 'Why… why do I care…?' Takumi wondered.
"The theme for this year's school festival is… This!" Misaki stood proudly before her poster. "New students and Seika High! The school festival is our greatest chance to improve our school's image! New students and Seika High is a great theme!"
'I don't know about that poster.' All of the male staff thought while Misaki ranted on. "Our school has been painted as malodorous, barbaric and crude, but this fresh new image will erase all that!"
"Our goal is, next spring, we must get as many cute female freshmen as possible! We WILL cleanse this school of its male stench!" Misaki finished it with a dark expression. 'Is that a really good idea?' Again the males in the room pondered.
"Misaki-chan, I don't think that's a good idea." Kagome spook, the boys whipped their head to her with shocked expressions. 'She actually said it.'
"Our school isn't "fresh" like this at all." Kagome said as she looked at poster. "We can however try to make it a bit more fresh then it is. Or at least friendlier." The guys nodded behind her.
"Naïve!" Misaki shouted while slamming her hand on the poster. "Whether or not this school is going to be fresh is up to you!" She pointed mainly at the guys. "You have to band together to create a fresh school festival!"
Kagome sighed; she went to stand besides Misaki looking over her shoulder. "Ara, it seems that we have guests." She whispered to herself, just when the doors opened. Misaki sat back on her chair closing her eyes. "Have you brought a proper proposal this time?"
"We would like to withdraw… the Bellybutton Dance." One said with pain. Kagome sweat-dropped at Misaki's answer. "Of course!" Another boy stood more confident in front of her. "We just over-thought things, tryin' to come up with something new. So we went back to basics… And all came up with this!"
They presented their idea and Kagome and Misaki looked over the piece of paper. Kagome could just feel the anger radiating besides her. "Strip rock-paper-scissors tournament. Last-minute entries accepted." Kagome said aloud for the other council members to hear. Even Kagome wanted to slap these guys.
"Rejected!"
"Why?! The Seika School Festival always has one of these!" The boy yelled. "There is no such tradition." Misaki stated but another boy countered. "Last year when we did this, it was a big hit, right?!"
"Only among all of you." The guys lost it. "What's wrong with that?! The school festival is for us to enjoy!" The guys were now glaring at Misaki. 'Misaki is somehow remaining calm.' Kagome thought to herself. "The theme of this year's festival is New students and Seika High School! I'm after FRESH ideas that will attract FEMALE students!" Kagome took her previous statement back Misaki wasn't remaining calm.
"So… A photo shoot of girl models in a pool?" They tried again but more reluctantly.
"Rejected."
"A chicken fight using mixed boy-girl teams."
"Rejected."
"A sumo tournament using only girls."
"Are you even listening?! Hurry up and bring me a REAL idea! Your class 2-2 is the only one that hasn't decided yet!" Misaki shouted, and Kagome could swear she felt a little youki leak from her. "Isn't it because you keep rejecting everything? Why can't you just accept something?" They shouted back but instantly regretting it.
"I'm telling you, bring something I CAN accept!"
A guy turned to Kagome. "Onegai Angelic Vice, please help us!" He begged. Kagome looked baffled at the attention she gotten. "Well… I don't think you guys have bad intentions, but your ideas aren't exactly unisex. And I can't force Misaki to accept something she doesn't agree on, however…" Kagome turned to Misaki.
"I do believe that listening to these boys, helping them and having an open mind wouldn't hurt them." She smiled sweetly. Misaki sighed already giving up. "Alright I'll be a bit softer."
The guys cheered until one spoke up. "Then how about a Wife Simulator!" Misaki immediately replied and crushed it down. "Don't push your luck!"
Now the boys had a little push from Kagome but it wasn't enough. "At this rate…" a guy said on the verge of tears. "Usui! Usui-san! Please say something!"
The guys began begging him by repeatedly calling his name until he walked to the front. He stood in front of Misaki's desk and made brief eye contact with Kagome. "What should I say?" He asked turning back to the guys. "Let us do the strip rock-paper-scissors tournament, dammit!"
"Let us do the strip rock-paper scissors tournament, dammit." Takumi repeated in his monotone voice. Kagome sweat-dropped. "Can't you do it with a bit more emotions Usui-san?" One of the boys asked. "But even I don't really want to do it." He dismissed it.
"But… I do agree with Kagome." He smirked and turned to the vice-president. "Listening to the guys opinions won't hurt a fly." He said that to Misaki but his eyes never left Kagome. A light blush appeared on her face as she broke the eye contact. Unknown to them Misaki caught on the gesture.
Kagome smiled as she bowed her head, her black cat ears shifted for a second, as she stood straight again. "Welcome back, Master." Her voice sounded sweet but the receive knew the wrath behind it.
"Neko ears. Moe~" Takumi said in his monotone voice while he smirked. 'Bastard…!' Kagome cursed inside. 'You may have me at a disadvantage, but don't push your luck!' she growled almost making the fake cattail and ears react.
"Oh Kago-chan, I'd like to order, please." Takumi called her over. "I told you not to come her after school!" She started. "If anyone else saw me like this, the trust I've built up as a member of the student council would go up in smoke! Oi!" Kagome's call brought him back from the distraction of her ears.
"Don't worry. After all, they are hooked." He motioned to the three friends who were sitting in the corner staring at Kagome with admiration. She glanced at them and they started squealing. "They used to be so wild, but now they're your biggest fans." Takumi said.
"I'm grateful to you for keeping my secret, but…" Takumi interrupted her sentence. "The only reason I haven't said anything is because I don't want anyone else getting in on my secret enjoyment." He said it with a teasing face. Kagome ignored him. "But the school festival is a different matter altogether. Why did you do that?!" she exclaimed.
"Do what?" He pretended to be ignorant. "Don't be like that you know what I mean! Why did you stare at me?!" Kagome turned red when she realized how it sounded. She turned away, missing the smirk that came on Takumi's face. "Because I wanted to."
Her face grew even redder; she turned away and went back to work. "You're so sly as a kitsune kit." She muttered to herself as she took a plate and brought it to the table. "Apologies for the wait! Here's you Moe Moe Omurice. And how shall we dress it today?" She had her professional smile on while she looked at the three idiots.
"U-Um, however you feel right now, Kago-chan." Shirokawa said bashfully. "Understood, Master." Kagome smiled sweetly and light radiated from behind her. The three boys covered their eyes with their hands as a blush decorated their cheeks. "S-So bright!"
Kagome sprayed the ketchup over the plate and left when she was finished. The boys looked with hope at the plate only to read. "Pain in the ass." They looked back at her. "Kago-chan…" Kurosaki said saddened. "She's just so cold-hearted." Again a blush appeared. "It's awesome!" Sarashina commented.
"Tadaima!" Kagome entered her house only to be welcomed by her little brother and a package. "Okaeri, Onee-chan! I won that sweepstakes I entered last time." Kagome sat besides him while she took off her shoes. "Wow. What is it this time? What did you win?"
Souta opened the package and pulled out his wins. "Rice. Miso paste. Soy sauce." Kagome looked at the hauled that filled their hallway. "Souta… We may be poor, but you're a junior high student, so enter contests that have more of a dream!" She smiled sweetly at him.
"I know, but there's a reason I send off all these entry cards: It's part of my second club activities, so I don't mind it at all. Since I win most of the times, they let me off to focus on soccer or school. So there are no problems." Souta snickered. "You have it worse, working as a maid what you don't like, only to help the family finances."
"Saying that I don't like it is a bit much. It's not my preference but the staff is nice, it pays well and the customers are actually polite. Besides, it's not like you can handle a real job!" Kagome ruffles her little brother's head. "Oi!" He shoved her hand off. "That was rather excessive." He said as he stood up with the stuff heading towards the living room, leaving Kagome behind.
Kagome sighed; she looked back at the living room with a soft smile. She stood up and left to her room. 'I suppose it's not as bad as I make it look like.'
"Rejected, of course!" The strong voice of Misaki was heard throughout the school. "Why?!" The guys yelled back as if it wasn't obvious enough. "This "Heart-Throbbin' Cosplay & Strip RPS* Tournament" is simply ridiculous!" Misaki shouted even harder. "Are you fools even asking the opinions of the girls?"
"What would you girls like to do?" Misaki asked nicely. "Like, a coffee shop?" One said reluctantly. Misaki immediately wrote it down. "Yosh. Class 2-2 will be doing a coffee shop."
The guys cried out. "That's too unreasonable!"
"It's terrible!"
"It's tyranny!"
"I told you to bring me a proper proposal, didn't I?!" Misaki shouted at the top of her longs making all the guys run outside. One of them bumped into Kagome. "Gomennasai!" He bowed. "No, it's alright." Kagome got up. "What's going on?" She asked him. "Kaichou decided to do the idea of the girls for Class 2-2. We're going to do a coffee shop." He had tears in his eyes as he decided to run away. "Gomennasai, but I don't want the Angelic Vice to see me so pathetic!"
"H-Hey wait!" Kagome shouted him but it wasn't heard. She opened the door to the student council room to overhear the discussion between Misaki and the girls from class 2-2.
"But will that be all right, simply choosing for them?" One of the girls asked. "It can't be helped. Class 2-2 was on course to being unable to participate." Misaki replied. The girls looked at each other. "We only want to work with the boys to make a happy school festival."
A sweet smile appeared on Misaki's face. "Don't worry. It's sure to be a fun festival." Kagome came to stand next to them, making her presence known. "I'm not so sure about that." Kagome stated as the other girls left. "Boys make up the majority of this school, we need their cooperation. And it looks like they're not wiling to give it." Kagome's expression turned dark and irritated.
"You do realize I'm in charge of the school activities inside. So when this post up to be a problem I'm going to have to deal with it." Kagome deadpanned. Misaki laughed lightly. "I'm sure it'll be fine." Misaki was about to leave until Kagome stopped her. "Misaki, you should really try to listen to the boys. It's important not to discriminate them. I'm sure when they are given the proper boost necessary they'll be fine."
Misaki didn't look back. "You never cease to amaze me, Kagome. But when you call me by my name with honorifics, it feels like a side of you comes out that I don't recognize and to be honest it scares me. I know I am in the wrong, but my pride won't allow it. I'll deal with the backlash when it comes." With that Misaki walked away.
Kagome sighed. She knows that sometimes that part of her from the feudal era appears, a part of her that has no place in this time. But she can't help it; it crawls back up the moment she reads someone's aura. She ignored her thoughts and focused on her work.
Misaki stopped and without looking back she spoke. "I know you were there when Kagome-chan and I spoke." A smirk came to its lips. "She might've not noticed you but normally she could sense you from a mile away."
Misaki scoffed when she heard a soft snicker. "I've seen the way you look at her. Yesterday was a dead giveaway. So here's my warning. Don't you ever dare to think that Kagome-chan is like those other girls, cause she's not! She so strong and smart! I don't believe just anyone suits her, especially not you! You're not worthy of her."
"That's what you think." Was the cunning remark. Misaki clicked her tongue as she decided to turn around. "You don't know anything about her! So why? Why did it have to be her?" Misaki said, a raging fire could be seen behind her eyes. "Why? Usui Takumi?"
Emerald eyes looked at the brunette. "It's because I don't know anything about her. She's a mystery that I will solve. Besides…" He stepped closer to the president. "What do you know about Higurashi Kagome, Kaichou?"
When Misaki casted her eyes down for a second, he smirked. "Don't get in my way." He said as he passed her. "Matte!" Misaki yelled as she turned to face him. He stopped and turned his head. "I've slept over." Lighting was seen flashing between the two. "I've seen her blush." Takumi smirked at his victory as he heard Misaki groan. And so the rivalry began, between the friend and the love interest.
"What are you two doing?" They looked behind Misaki to see Kagome with a puzzled face. "Oh we were eheh…" Misaki tried to cover up. "She asked me if the guys from Class 2-2 were okay after what happened this afternoon." Takumi simply said. Misaki turned shocked at him. "HAH?" She whispered, or rather yelled soft enough for Takumi to hear and not Kagome.
"When did I ask you that?!" She glared at him; he ignored her and stared at the person in front of them. She followed his eye and was greeted with a blessed sight. Kagome was smiling brightly with a cute blush on her cheeks. Pride was filled in her eyes as she looked at Misaki.
Misaki's eyes widen, she turned to look at Takumi as if realizing something. Takumi was looking at Kagome with an expression she had never seen before. His eyes were not shifting away from Kagome for a second, and the soft smile he had was one Kagome would not see, because it would happen when she wouldn't be looking.
"Really?! I'm so proud of you Misaki-san!" Kagome hugged Misaki closely. "I knew that you could do it! I truly hope that one day you'll hate guys less and maybe even find love." Kagome said smiling. Then her eyes widen and she looked at her watch. "Oh no! I'm going to be late!"
Kagome ran pass them but waved before she left with a smile. "I'll see you two tomorrow!" Misaki watched her of with a smile of her own. "No running in the hallway…" Misaki said softly after her. "Why did you do that?" She then proceeded to ask the blonde.
"Because of the smile." He simply stated as he started walking in the direction Kagome left. "And now we're even." He smirked as he continued. Misaki felt the competitive side of her rise. She smirked as she shouted after him. "I don't plan to lose!"
A few days have passed and the school was busy with the preparations for the festival. Misaki and Kagome patrolled the hallway until the classroom of Class 2-1 caught their attention. Misaki peeked inside to see the classroom that was meant as a planetarium full with couple seats.
"What is this "Love Love" seat?" She asked them whilst shaking. One of the guys walked up with a smile. "At a planetarium, I thought couples would wanna hold hands in the dark!" he said excitedly. "Take 'em out!" Misaki yelled as she ripped one apart.
"Maa, maa Misaki-chan." Kagome called for the attention of her friend. "A few shouldn't hurt, try to sort it out. Remember, try listen to the opinions of the guys." She said with a smile. Misaki sighed and agreed to talk it out with the people from class 2-1. "You go ahead and check on that stupid Class 2-2." Kagome nodded.
Kagome entered the room only to see the girls working. "All the boys are skipping, huh?" She whispered to herself as she walked up to the table. "Higurashi-san! Ohayo!" They greeted her. "Kagome is fine, no need for formalities. Is it proceeding well?" She replied.
One of the girls handed her a draft. "This is the coffee shop's menu. We've only thought of what we can make ourselves." The other one nodded and gave Kagome another one. "Also, I was wondering how this would be for the shop's design?"
Kagome looked over the papers sternly but smiled. "I think it would be better to separate the guests from the kitchen area. Also, there's too much on this menu. You shouldn't use the more elaborate dishes. You should instead focus on the kitchen, your turnaround would get worse otherwise. And if you leave the finishing touches to your waiter, it will create more interaction with the customer. Two birds with one stone, right?!"
Kagome gave them a big smile, but they just looked dumbfounded at her. "Kagome-chan, you sure know a lot about this!" Kagome twitched at the comment. "M-My otouto works in a coffee shop as a waiter." She smiled nervously as she left the classroom.
'That was close…' Kagome sweat-dropped. 'But there is a problem with the boys… Damn it now I have to take care of that.' Kagome slumped her shoulders as she met up with Misaki at Class 2-3.
She overheard Misaki scolding the guys. "I believe I said that the boys are not allowed to dress as monsters." Some guys gathered around. "Why not?" that just seemed to piss off Misaki even more. "Because last year, some insolent fool chose to latch onto one of the girls."
"We would never do that!" They defended just when a girl passed them with a guy dressed as Frankenstein chasing her. Kagome had walked up to Misaki, but she didn't expect to be embraced. "I caught you~" She heard from behind her.
Before Kagome could do anything, Misaki had ripped the boy off of her. "You've got some guts!" Her demonic self appeared in the form of her aura. "She's here!" the guys all ran away and escaped.
"I swear." Misaki sighed; she turned to the raven-haired. "You alright?" Kagome nodded. "Hai, all I wanted to say was that it might be alright to let them, but I guess it's too late now." She sweat-dropped. There was just no way to convince Misaki to let the boys dress up as monsters after what happened.
"Misaki-chan, Kagome-chan!" Sakura and Shizuko greeted them from behind, startling Misaki. "They suit us, don't they?" Misaki smiled nervously. "Maybe, uh, a little too well." She said from behind Kagome. "Well I think you two look great!" Kagome complimented.
"Hehe!" Sakura twirled. "I'm not good at performing in front of others, but I've agreed to do this, and I don't want to do a second-rate job." Shizuko said as she closed in on Misaki creeping her even more out.
"Is it really okay to ignore the boys of 2-2? They look pretty glum." Sakura stated. Misaki shrugged it off. "I'm sure they're off having another stupid meeting." But Kagome didn't agree. 'I hope that I'll get through them before trouble starts.'
"Whisper whisper whisper…"
In the gym storage room the boys from Class 2-2 had gather and formed up a plan. "I get it." One said. "Yosh! Let's do that for the school festival." The other one said. "I can't wait to see our president's shocked face! But since she's not in charge it's going to be all on the Angelic Vice." The room got filled with evil laughter as the boys had made a marvelous plan to ruin the festival.
"I can't imagine that the boys of 2-2 would just give up quietly." Kagome spoke to herself. The worry was clearly shown on her face and her manager came circling around her. "Aah~ Yes, that face! It's the look of a cool, intellectual maid! She won't let her guard down easily, but one she's accepted her master, she'll serve him faithfully! This character fairly BURNS with strategy! And it's moe~"
Kagome looked puzzled at her boss while Honoka came between them. "Manager, I swear. You're running wild again? You're not allowed to give Kago-chan these outlandish talks!" She said.
"Sumimazen." Kagome intervene. "I couldn't follow what you where saying." She said with a blank face. Satsuki waved it aside. "Oh, it's fine. It's better that you don't know, Kago-chan. Your character benefits from being a bit slow. You sure did us a favor by coming to this shop!" The older female lost herself in her own little world.
'I have no idea what she's saying.' Kagome thought as she gave a smile whilst sweat dropping. "Manager, please, enough with all of this." Honoka smiled empty as she walked to the entrance of the shop from the kitchen. "Kago-chan doesn't care about this job. It's cruel." She said looking back with darkness in her eyes. She continued walking, leaving Kagome dumbfounded with Satsuki smiling behind.
"Honoka-chan looks cute but sometimes is quite spiteful. But don't take it by heart." Satsuki said with a bit naivety in it. "True, the atmosphere here may be hard for you, given your reserved personality, but you work hard and you're a big help around here." A sweet smile came on Kagome's lips as she continued listening to her manager.
"I love this job, personally. Making dreams come true, making people happy and spending an enjoyable time together is wonderful, don't you think? And for them to enjoy it, we'll have to enjoy doing it first. That's why I'm as energetic as can be. Gomennasai if it's irritating." Satsuki apologized.
Kagome shook her head. "No! On the contrary! It's because you're so energetic that I start to feel more comfortable and at ease while working. It actually gets me excited too." Kagome replied, the manager gave a big smile as respond. "I'll take the trash out before ill go back." Kagome said as she left.
She took the trash bags and walked outside. She leaned against the door when it had closed. "They must think that I don't care about this job." She said to herself as she looked up. As her senses relaxed she noticed a familiar aura coming to her.
"Who does?" The person asked. Kagome did not answer as she closed her eyes. "You again? Don't you have anything else to do?" Takumi walked up to her. "That's not much of a reaction." He said dryly. Kagome overlooked him as she grabbed the trash bags walked pass him. "If you're looking to kill time, you can better go somewhere else."
"Give me just a little time." He said pleading with a smirk. Kagome ignored him as she leaned forward to place the trash on the ground, what she didn't expect was that her skirt would be lifted up. "Vice, are those panties for show?" She could hear from behind her. A big blush came on her cheeks.
"Ah!" She stepped away from the offender, her hands on her behind to protect it from any more hands "Miroko did it at least over my skirt…" The Miko mumbled to herself. "But that's straight-up sexual harassment! And these are drawers for your information!" She shouted at the blonde.
"There's no need to yell." Takumi looked to the side with an indifferent face. Kagome's eyes turned dark. "Why am I always surrounded by all these men acting however they like, casually doing the things women hate!" Takumi laughed mockingly in the background. "How prejudiced."
"It's not from my perspective!" Kagome countered back. Takumi smiled as he looked at Kagome. "Vice, if all men were truly like that, then don't you think that they'll team up someday to make it worse?"
Kagome stood up straight and looked at him with question. But then she understood the underline message. "I do think that, and there's little I can do against it. They have their own mind, they can decide for themselves. I can only influence it. So I hope that they aren't like those men." She said sincere.
Takumi smiled. "We both hope that. But what if they are?" He turned around and left. Kagome looked on in the distance hoping that the if won't come true. But what if it did? What would she do? What could she do?
"It's finally the day of the school festival. Whether our school will be reborn in a fresh new image will depend on how hard you work! Let's do our best!" Kagome listened half-heartedly to the speech of Misaki until she called the miko out. "Hey Kagome-chan! You okay?" Kagome nodded and bid her goodbye as she went to her station.
And so the school was opened to the public. Unknown to Kagome were the boys of class 2-2 gathered in the gym closet. "Everyone in costume?" One boy confirmed. The others nodded. "This is the day we've worked hard for! We're totally not used to making our own costumes!" Another one said. "We won't let the president boss us around anymore. Or rather, if we do this, we win!" The first one grinned evilly.
The guys suddenly noticed the blonde that had been standing in the corner the whole time. "U-Usui?!" They synced. "Which one is mine?" He just asked bluntly with a blank face. The boys's faces lit up as they surround him. "You'll do it with us?!"
"Hai."
"We've just scored our strongest ally!" The first one said as the others brought in a few costumes. They dressed him in an English guard uniform. "This doesn't really fit…" His next outfit was a safari guide. "It's not bad, but it doesn't quite work." The next one was a shinsengumi outfit, which quite frankly suited him very well. "Then I have to be a Shinsengumi samurai, too?" Takumi asked.
"Is this it?"
"This it is!"
"That sword may be a toy, but it totally makes it!"
Takumi went to pick up something from the ground. "Then I'll have to…" He placed the item on his head. "…wear one of these, won't I?" It was a samurai wig that gave the illusion that a part of his head was shaved bald.
"NO!"
"We need something that suits him! Search for it!"
Kagome had made a quick round by the stalls of some clubs and then proceeded to go to her assigned position. The second years. 'The boys of 2-2 never truly complained so there shouldn't be any problem… right?' Kagome started to doubt herself as well as the outcome. When she entered the classroom of 2-2 she was baffled of what she came face to face with.
The boys were in samurai costume surrounding two girls sitting on a table. On the wall was a cloth with "Super hot! Manly battle cosplay coffee shop!" written on it. "What the heck is this?!" Kagome exclaimed shocked.
"K-Kagome-san! These guys suddenly barged in, claiming this as captured territory!" one of the girls of 2-2 came almost crying, to Kagome. "What does that even mean?!" Kagome felt that she was getting more annoyed when she sensed someone standing behind her.
"It means…" Takumi's head appeared in front of her with a dashing smile. It was decided that he would wear military clothes from the air force, or so it seemed. "This is a male, military cosplay coffee shop. Apparently. It sounded interesting, so I joined in."
Kagome just blankly stared at him. "Sure it did. I'm starting to think that you got a thing for cosplay." Before Takumi could reply or continue the teasing the door behind them opened.
"We brought prisoners of war!" A guy said as two girls stood reluctantly in front of the opening. "Your human rights will be protected. Just sit quietly and order your drink…" The boy halted in his sentence as he felt malice from behind him. Kagome snapped. "All of you… out in the hallway… now!"
The obeyed her and before they knew it they were in the hall. "Look! I understand that you guys want to be included and that you guys have your ideas, but this is not the way to do it!" Kagome shouted at them. Some were surprised to see their Angelic-Vice like that. They always imagined her as a quiet and soft person, but this side of hers was unheard of.
"What? It's a coffee shop, and doing it in costume makes it more fun, right?"
"And we listened to girls' opinions!"
"We wanna enjoy the festival, too!"
"And I understand that! But you guys aren't thinking! It wasn't a bad idea, but for starters it isn't written anywhere that this coffee shop has cosplay. If people knew it might've attracted them! Besides do you guys know the menu? Do you guys even know how to act and serve them correctly?!" Kagome yelled louder then she already did.
"Screw you." A boy suddenly said and Kagome looked at him shocked, even his classmates didn't expect it. "You think we'll do what you say when you just order us around with that attitude? Whatever we say doesn't matter because you're just the lapdog of the Kaichou. After all, our Kaichou hates guys and the Vice doesn't have the same status." He guy stood up ignoring Kagome who hung her head low.
"Let's go, guys." He turned to walk away. Others hesitated, but went along with it. They knew that he wasn't wrong, but it didn't feel right to blame it all on the Vice, she was called the Angelic-vice because she would listen.
Kagome could hear the girls struggle with the orders behind her. In her head the words of Takumi roamed around. "If all men were truly like that, then don't you think that they'll team up someday to make it worse?"
Kagome refused to believe that. "Matte…" Kagome said softly. "Matte!" she got their attention and they turned around. "I know that Misaki-san has her problems and I'm trying to help her, but you cannot selfishly blame your faults on others! I have to admit your games were dumb and immature, but your idea of cosplaying is actually good! You just had to tell me or Misaki-san about it and it would've been fine! I believe that men who act however the want and force that on women are the lowest kinds of people. Those people would then team up just to make it worse then it already is!" Kagome didn't look up as she kept talking.
"I refuse to believe that you guys don't have that self-respect to acknowledge your wrong! Just as Misaki-san acknowledged it! She wrote a letter to apologize; I saw her working on it." Kagome bowed. "That's why I'm begging you! Please help out the girls in the coffee shop! Atone for your wrong doings by fixing it instead of blaming it on others!"
Kagome looked up with a slight blush of embarrassment, she had lost her cool. She went back inside to classroom hoping that her words had reached them. "Gomen. I'll help out." Kagome said as she pulled off her sweater and proceeded to put on the apron. 'I'll apologize later.'
'Right now, we have to get this under control somehow.' Kagome turned to the costumers with her professional smile. The brought the iced tea the girl that was waiting for it. "One iced tea, correct? Enjoy." Kagome went on the next one.
"May I take your order?"
And the next one…
"Sumimazen, if you could wait just a little longer…"
The other girls admired the raven haired for her hard work and dedication. "Kagome-san… She's really suited for this!" Kagome was so focused on her task that she didn't notice the boys who were sitting in the hallway staring through the class. Takumi opened the door, making some question his action. "Huh? Usui? You're going in?"
"Our Vice asked our help." He said with a smirk as he entered the class. Kagome was taking orders. "One cheese tart and a lemon tea, right? Understood." Someone else called her over. "I'd like to order, please." Kagome was so indulged in her roll that she forgot where she was.
"As you wish, Master!"
…
…
…
'What did I just do?!' Kagome began to panic. However Takumi came between them. "Excuse me." He began speaking fluently English. "Another cup of coffee, young lady?" Kagome looked at his back, there were often situations like that where a guys stood in front of her "protecting" her, but this time she was actually really grateful for that back that was in front of her.
"Takumi…" She blushed a little. The couple that was getting serve was bright red. "I-I'd like to order too, please." The boy spoke up. "How about you, sir? What would you like?" Takumi continued in his flawless English. He sneaked a glance behind him at the sapphire-eyes beauty. "What troubles you? Why did you pause?"
Kagome looked into his emerald eyes, they both held eye contact as if the rest of the world didn't exist. "You are a maid, so please devote yourself to your duties." He said teasingly. Kagome relaxed in a smile. "Yes, sir."
The door opened up again, this time the other boys were willing to participate. "That looks interesting! We'll do it, too!" They shouted together. The boys started to get into character and began serving. Kagome looked around and smiled relieved. This was all they had to do.
More and more people began gathering in the little coffee shop, it had gotten so full that there was line just to get a seat. Kagome watched a little longer till Takumi joined her side. "Sometimes thing like this can happen, huh?" he said.
"Yeah. I knew it would be all right, like I said; I don't believe that they are like those men. They're smart enough to know what the right thing to do is." Kagome said as she watched a couple of guys goof around trying to make the girls laugh. It worked, because it was honest and not intimidating. Kagome gave a soft look as she watched life enter the room.
Unbeknownst to her was Takumi eyeing her face and observing her features, she was truly a beauty. And he couldn't look away from her.
"Kagome-chan!" Someone called her over it was Misaki. "Misaki-san!" Kagome was surprised to see the brunette walk over to her. "What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be patrolling the stalls?" she asked her president.
"I heard what happened so I came, I knew you had it under control! Look! This isn't so bad after all!" Misaki grinned brightly. Kagome smiled as well. "Yes, it isn't bad at all!"
"Ah, Kagome-san! Could you maybe help us over here?" A girl asked as she was struggling with the trays. "Coming!" Kagome left the two as she went to help out.
"You had that look again." Misaki stated. Takumi kept his blank face. "What look?" Misaki glared at his respond. "That look that you use for Kagome." Takumi kept quiet. "But why do you want to know anything about her? Her secrets are best left untold. Besides curiosity killed the cat." With that Misaki left Takumi with his thoughts.
He turned his head to look outside the window and the sunset. A small smirk gave on face. "But satisfaction brought it back." He noted that Kagome had been taking to many orders to handle and went out to help her. "You're falling hard." He heard Misaki say. "I don't see the ground yet."
Night had come and Kagome was sitting alone as a tree trunk. 'This brings memories…' She heard rustling in the bushes and tested herself to discover what aura she could read. It was Usui Takumi. "Huh? Vice? Aren't you going to the after party?"
Kagome glanced at him. "I was just taking a break. Misaki-san and me went to apologize to the others of 2-2. So it took a while for Misaki-san to blow of some steam." Takumi hummed. "Then I'll join you." Kagome eyed him and decided to stand up and walk up to him. "Takumi. Arigatou. You really helped me out back then."
Takumi's eyes widen in surprise. "You were right, the if happened and I wasn't prepared. It looks like you've helped me open my eyes again." She smiled sweetly. "So you're all right with telling everyone you're a maid?" He asked her straightforwardly.
"Baka! That's completely different! Besides-" Takumi took Kagome's arm mid sentence and pinned her between the tree and his body. "Of course not." He began as he placed her chin between his fingers lifting it up. He leaned in letting their noses touch. "You're all mine."
Kagome couldn't look away. He truly had her trapped. Exactly like a fox, had he tricked her into being captivated by him. But the same went for Takumi. For he believed that Kagome was like a siren, always luring him in with her sweet voice and then seducing him, he was a meal before her and he knew it, but could not escape.
"My maid, that is." He finished with a sly smirk. Kagome's blush darkened. "Who the hell do you think you are?!" She yelled. "I'm an admiral in the navy. I'm kind of a big deal." He said confidently. "Just give it up already!" Kagome shouted back.
KT: Yay! Chapter 2 is done! YAAYAYAYA! I still am having struggles with drawing the cover but it will be up soon! At any rate I hope you enjoyed it!
BTW !READ!:
For those who are not familiar with my work… let's just say for those who haven't read XSinning on a MikoX what the review section mean, is when the next chapter will be post. If not a lot of people review it's going to be 3 weeks. If I get an average reviewing amount it'll be 2 weeks. If I get more than 10 (which is less than the usual) it'll be next week. I am thinking however of notching it up, because I got a lot on the reviews on the first chapter, but I think not for this Fanfic… my ego is growing (*/*) I do hope people will keep reviewing cause that keeps me motivated!
Review:
10 Next week
5-9 Two weeks
0-4 Three weeks
So many thanks for those who did review!:
Anime Hotty Lover.18: OMG! I'm so glad you're reading another one of my stories XD I'll be sure not to disappoint you! And I hope you'll keep supporting me throgout another story *bows*
Red (Guest): XD I'll be sure to continue this story to the end *thumps up* And yes someone from the feudal era will show up… Can you guess who before they make an appearance? *smirks* And it is a good suggestion! I'll be sure to mix it into my original plan, but I hope you try to guess what I'll do in the end. I always love it when people try to search for clues and hints, because I've hidden a few already and there are more to come ^^
Bluephoenixflame98: Thank you! I have a lot and I hope you will be satisfied with them! ^^
Erica (Guest): Here is some of Kagome's power. But sadly there won't be an all out battle. If you want something like that I suggest reading my other Fanfic that I mention in KT notes. It focus more on Kagome's power. But there will be some moments of Kagome using her powers^^
Guest: Thank you! And I hope that this was soon enough XD
UrusaiBaka: XD I get that! Sometimes when a fanfic hasn't been updated for a very long time, and suddenly there's a new chapter. I binge read 2 XD And I hope this story will live up to your expectations^^
Gurst (Guest): Yay! I will keep doing my best!
Guest: Arigatou!
Guest: Haha, I was the same! That's why I wrote it. It might sound a bit narcissist, but I was like; I need this ship… fuck it, if you want something good you might as well make it yourself. And thus it began XD btw I Love chuuu tuwoo!
Meeshkla18: Of course there will be a lot of KagomeXTakumi scenes! Their relationship will also progress way faster than the one in the manga with Misaki. So you have a lot to look out for!
Guets: XD At last indeed
Guest1 (Guest): Thank you! I hope the wait wasn't that horrible XD
Dark Shadowed Rose: Well here you go, good sir/ma'am… I don't want to assume it… And please don't be so formal XD just go aaaalllll oooouuuuuttt with your feelings XD
Trouvaille: There will be way more KagomeXTakumi moments! Just you wait! …. Sneaking in the #Hamlife… XD
LadyAdalicia: Loving you so muchhhhh!
Silversun XD: No, the prez is not a maid. In the full summary in the beginning of the story, says that Misaki lives an ordinary life. And if you read the manga she still has issue's with her dad which is the cause of her hatred for men. I didn't want Kagome to hate guys, for a reason like Inuyasha betrayed her because I feel that that doesn't suit Kagome's personality. She's is sweet and forgiving, but she will remember and won't make the mistake twice.
Cowgirlkitten2000: Yeay! From my writing style and how many words it takes for one chapter I'm guessing that it will have 24 chapters or something. So I hope you'll enjoy it till the end!
Fnkvjmnz: I know. The first chapter had to be like that because it's more of an introduction. But the coming chapters will be totally Kagome-nized… if that's a word XD Anyway this chapter had that a little but of course there is more to come ^^
