Darkest Days
Chapter Three Neinna L. H.
As they walked up onto the front steps of the estate a man who appeared to be middle aged greeted them. His silver hair was pulled up into what looked like a ponytail, however messy it was. He smiled when he saw them and said hello.
"Inukaito!" Mrs. Higurashi exclaimed. "It's wonderful to see you again. How have you been?"
"We've been alright, Yoko. I see you have company along with you." He stated looking at Jenna. "Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Inukaito Akane. Welcome to my home."
"Thank you, very much." Jen replied as she proceeded inside, following Kagome and Yoko. "My name's Jenna Gal- Higurashi." She said quickly correcting herself.
Yoko heard this and quickly explained due to the puzzled expression on Inukaito's face. "Jenna is my daughter that I've adopted from America. She just got here this morning."
Inukaito smiled. "Please, Yoko, Mr. Hibachi,(A/n: if anyone knows Grandpa's real name, tell me) follow me to the kitchen. Satsu has been all in a jumble to get dinner ready what with Hokuyami sick. Kagome, Souta, you know your way around, if you'll please show Jenna. I believe Sesshoumaru is in the library."
Jenna's eyes widened. "You've an entire library in your house?"
Inukaito grinned. "Yes. It beat going into town for every single book Sesshoumaru wanted when he was younger. Yoko, if you will." And with that the three adults went towards the kitchen.
"Come one, Jen!" Souta said tugging on the girl to get her to move. Jenna snapped out of her trance and Souta laughed lightly. "Come on. I can't wait till you meet Inuyasha. Sesshoumaru is a bit. haughty at times. He is also a bookworm. You wont see his face till it's time to eat or if you talk to him about poetry, plays, boxing, or books."
Kagome snorted. "He's more interesting than Inuyasha, that's for sure."
All of a sudden the three of them heard a voice from behind. "Did I hear a certain bitch call my name?" the voice stopped Kagome cold in her tracks. Souta spun around and laughed.
"You sure did. Where'd you come from Yash?" Souta asked; curiosity etched all over the boys face.
Inuyasha walked into the light and his gaze was on Souta still, not even paying any mind to Kagome or the other girl. "I was upstairs when I heard a car pull into he garage. I thought it was Naraku. Too bad I came down." Inuyasha finally looked over at Kagome and when he did he noticed Jen. "Who are you? Another one of Kagome's bitch friends?"
Jen picked her head up, her eyes ablaze. She wanted to sock him but she held in her anger. "I guess you could say that. Oh, and Inuyasha, if that is your name, I do not appreciate you calling my sister a bitch."
As Inuyasha's eyes widened a little from shock, Kagome tried to suppress a laugh but it didn't work. Souta laughed a little as well. "Inuyasha, meet Jen. Jen's our new sister. She's a little uhm." he couldn't find the word he needed to describe her.
Jen raised an eyebrow. "Different maybe? Foreign would work too."
"How about odd?" Inuyasha asked with a slight evil grin. He had hoped to get her anger riled up again.
Jenna nodded. "Yup, that would work too." She crossed her arms across her orange shirt and relaxed her stance. Her head was tilted a little bit to the left and she had a small smile on her face.
Kagome looked at her. "If anything, you're a tomboy. What with your wardrobe and the way you stand, your words even. It's as if Souta's finally gotten an older brother only in a female body." Kagome said with an exasperated sigh and the throwing up of her arms.
Jen laughed lightly. "What can I say? When I was back in the states I practically lived with guys my entire life. My brother and his friends were all I had beside my little sister. But I am happy to be here. I'm lucky to get another chance with a family." She hurried the last part out in case she might have offended anyone.
Souta hugged her. "Don't worry about it. You can talk about your past as much as you want. No harm can come of it. Well, I would watch what you say in front of mother but that's just because she's become so attached to you already and you know how mother's can get sometimes."
Jen, surprised by this sudden hug and show of emotion, just patted Souta's back. "Erm. thanks." She added an 'I think' under her breath.
Inuyasha looked dazed as he watched Souta hug this girl. Suddenly Jen heard something that sounded like music come from upstairs. The words started to form on her lips and she could barely contain the noise inside her mouth. "You can have all you want baby, but I got something you need." She sang completely unaware that she had an audience.
Inuyasha looked at her and spat out some words the same time Kagome did. "You like Van Halen?"
"You know that song?" Kagome asked. Kagome completely hated old rock; her life was in the pop music.
"Hell yah!" Jenna stated with a wide smile. "My brothers friends and I would sing that on the way to the lake and when we drove around town. It pissed so many people off." She laughed as a tear fell from her eye.
Kagome shook her head in disbelief. "Honestly, how can you guys get so worked up over music, I'll never know."
Kagome's words weren't heard for Jenna was too busy to listen to the questions that Inuyasha and Souta were throwing at her. She finally raised her hand to silence them. "I love punk and rock, on occasion pop is alright. I love old style rock. No, I don't like Creed all that well. Just a couple songs."
Inuyasha and Souta gave a sigh of relief. They didn't like Creed, for both of the young men thought that the music was to overplayed and that the quality sucked. "Are you musically equipped?"
Kagome gave him a look of disbelief. "And what the hell does that mean?"
Jenna smirked and replied nonchalantly, "I guess you could say that."
Kagome seized the opportunity and dragged Jenna off towards the living room. "Come on! You still have to meet Sesshoumaru. He's the NICE one." Kagome said the last sentence loud enough for Inuyasha and Souta to hear.
When they were far enough away Jenna decided to speak her mind. "I actually thought Inuyasha was nice. Cute too, in a way, But I can see how you perceive him as annoying. I love his eyes though. The colour is something straight out of a fairy painting by Brian Fraud (A/N: if you've never seen any of his works you got to look him up. He's awesome! ^-^)
As they entered the library they made out what looked like an over sized dog digging through the massive shelves of books. "Damn!" they heard from the lump.
Jenna walked up cautiously followed by a not so cautious Kagome. "SESSHY!" Kagome said loudly.
The massive heap of Sesshoumaru jumped pretty high. As he turned around his death glare changed into a smile. "Kagome, you know you're going to pay for that. Who's your friend?" Sesshoumaru asked
"My name's Jenna, I'm Kagome's sister." The auburn hair girl replied. "I was adopted and have just arrived today. Is there something you were looking for?"
"Yes." Sesshoumaru stated straightforwardly. "In my English class I'm taking we're required to read a book called Cry Wolf. I can't remember who the author is though. Damn it! I don't want to go to the bookstore and buy some-" his words were caught off.
"Tami Hoag is the author." Jenna stated. When she received a weird look from Kagome her defense went up. "It was on a list of books to read for my English class last semester."
Sesshoumaru pulled out a book with great joy. "I knew I had it! Thanks kid."
"It's Jen." She said tugging at the bottom of her shirt out of habit.
Sesshoumaru and Kagome both noticed this and Sesshoumaru spoke up. "What are you doing?"
"Oh. well you see, I'm not use to wearing shirts that are above my jean line. I usually wear a tee shirt or something else. Though I did yell at my little sister once when she burned them all.all excepts my band tee shirts and shirts."
Jenna couldn't have been happier when the uncomfortable silence was broken as they were called to dinner.
A/N: yeah, author note here. Okay I need some advice.. Well more advice. I'm taking a pole on to weather or not skip a few years. Plot and is pretty much still the same, a couple differences besides the time. So what do YOU want? Continue with the same time setting and have it last through the semester and into the summer. Or have the girls at their second year of college? Remember I have Inuyasha- freshman in college, and the girls are seniors. , Majority wins, and if there is a time change it wont happen till a few more chapters from now. So please review!
Oh and Yes, I have Naraku and Inuyasha as friends for a reason. This isn't a kag/Inu fiction though they are my favourite couple. I don't want Inuyasha right now with anyone who looks like the jug head (Kykio) . I'm also thinking of writing an Escaflowne/Inuyasha tell me what yah think!
I don't have anything gainst Creed personally. I just am not to found of them. But don't shoot the author if you like them! Shoot Jen! She's mean!
