Until Morning Comes

Sessho-Chan

*~*~*~*~*

Kagome sighed silently, sipping a cup of coffee in a small and quiet café. It had been a while since she had last flown into Tokyo. The wondrous site from the airplane window made her feel that maybe she was truly suppose to be here. The snow had already begun to flow down from the skies and had already begun to pile up along side the neighboring buildings; this was about the only few places in Tokyo that she didn't mind staying at. And despite the fact that she had dozens of boxes to move into her new apartment, she was content.

Her life would certainly be different now that she was on her own without her father. Going out into the world at the age of 17 was not exactly comfortable for her. But, she vowed to herself and her father that she was going to make it through without anyone's help.

Kagome glanced down at her watch, cursing to herself softly. She was late. Kagome quickly placed a few yens on the table and exited the building. She wasn't exactly familiar with everything yet, after all she mostly grew up in the states most of her life. But that wouldn't stop her, she will eventually learn.

*~*~*~*~*~*

Kagome took a deep breath as she took in her surroundings. "Wow."

For the past 30 minutes since entering her new high school, Kagome wandered around the school halls. It was really big, she had to admit, but what do you expect from one of the top schools in Japan? Their should be A LOT of students attending here, and she could tell that it really won't be easy making friends, but she would be a junior thank god. At least she'll already have some respect gained from the students here.

"Higurashi-san."

Kagome turned towards the man calling her. "Hiro-sensei."

"If you would come with me, I'll send you to your first class."

Kagome nodded in response, following the guidance counselor.

"Higurashi-san? Since today is your first day, I will only warn you that you are not allowed to wear your earrings during school hours. And as for uniforms."

'Uniforms?' he handed a package to her.

"You will change into them."

Kagome nodded. She stared down at the uniform. A white blouse and a blue tie, with a matching light blue SAILOR skirt. Kagome laughed to herself. She had never thought that she would be wearing these. Along with her uniform came shoes.

A few minutes passed by as they finally arrived at the door to her class. Kagome silently thanked the counselor as he left. Kagome tugged on her skirt and readjusted her tie. Taking a deep breath she opened the door.
