Time for a change part 3
Hello guys again :P. I still dont think I did the last chap very well but oh well. It was needed
to move the story along. Inuyasha may have been a litle ooc since he was crying (a little) but
we all know how crazy Iy gets when Kagome gets hurt so him hurting her would logically cause
him a lot more pain :(.
Zera-Don't worry. It'll come.
Inuyashachic515-Don't worry he'll get his. This chapters for you :P
Everyone else-Thanks for the support :P. Remember Comments, questions, suggestions, death threats,
story requests, etc are welcome.
I don't own Inuyasha, but honestly do you think that the richest woman in Japan would really care
if I said i did? She could just buy fanfiction.net and ban me :).
(a/n I got the names of Kag's friends. Thanks Jonathan's girl their names
are Ayumi, Eri, and Yuka)
'I'm glad Inuyasha decided to come. A month in my own time alone would drive me insane with boredom now that
I've been in the Warring States Era.' There were other reasons that Kagome was glad that Inuyasha would be
with her. Namely she might figure out a way to get Hojo from bugging her. Also a month without shards ment
that maybe she could get to know Inuyasha better.
Kagome wasn't crazy enough to think that Inuyasha would let her stay in her time for a month with or without
him. Heck, she'd be lucky if she got a week free of a griping hanyou. But she really did need the time
to keep her grades from falling. And now she had an even more powerful weopon. Inuyasha's pride. A little
threatening to tell Shippo that the great emotionally challenged Inuyasha had cried would insure atleast a
few weeks in her time. 'Provided that he stays.' Fortunately in this case the hanyou's density to her
feelings for him would pay off. If he left she would go after him within a few days. 'A month alone with Inuyasha
is going to be great!' Kagome ran into the
clearing where the well was. Inuyasha was standing where she left him with his arms folded. He had a scowl
on his face, but it wasn't as menacing as it usually was. "Oi, whench you sure took your sweet time." It was
said half-heartedly, but it was better than him being so distressed, she guessed. She walked strait up to him
and stared him in the eye. He returned the stare defiantly. Sigh. "Inuyasha?" Kagome gave him a sweet smile.
'Oh crap.' Inuyasha took a step back. "What are you smiling at woman?" Kagome still with her smile plastered
on her face walked passed a wary Inuyasha.
"Sit." Inuyasha once again met his friend Dirt. 'Well maybe not THAT great.' With that thought she adjusted
the straps on her backpack and hopped into the well. Meanwhile Inuyasha taught Dirt some of his very colorful
language.
*******************************************************************************************************************
Shippo stuck his head into the hut. 'Whew no sign of Inuyasha or Kagome.' Kaede was sitting cooking stew and Sango
was stroking Kiara while shooting glares at a black-eyed Budhist priest who simply sat there with a content smile on
his face. Shippo walked in and curled up near the fire. "Where's Kagome and Inuyasha?" Miroku looked over to Shippo
and brushed one of his locks of hair out of his swollen eye. "Kagome said something about going to her time for
a while." Miroku looked over at Sango with a grin on his face. "How long did she say Sango I was a bit distracted."
Sango rolled her eyes. "She said she was going for a month to her time with Inuyasha. If you wherent being such
a pervert you would have heard." Shippo was out the door before Sango had even finished her second sentence.
"KAGOOOOOOOOMEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! I'm sorry! Please don't be mad and leave me for a whole month!" The wailing Kitsune
bursted out of the woods only to see Inuyasha. Inuyasha was just finishing his confersation with Dirt and had pried
himself off the ground. 'Ohhhh crap.' thought the Kitsune. 'Ohhh there is a god.' thought the hanyou. Inuyasha got
up off the ground and let out a smug smirk. Cracking his knuckles Inuyasha walked towards Shippo. "Hey Shippo
lets have a talk." Shippo backed away from Inuyasha until he bumped into a tree. "He..hey Inuyasha!" Shippo gave
his biggest grin. "Listen. It. It was just a joke. You know haha? Umm. Inuyasha? INUYASHA!!!!"
********************************************************************************************************************
'Where is he? He should be able to get up by now.' Kagome tapped her foot impatiently. She almost wished he would
just hurry up and come through the well and yell at her. Just then the hanyou appeared at the bottom of the well.
'Be careful what you wish for.' But the yelling didn't come. Inuyasha hopped out of the well and to Kagome's surprise
he had a big grin on his face."Hey Kagome lets go in I'm starved!" Inuyasha walked past her and took her bag on his way.
He slung it over his shoulder and began walking over to her house. "Inuyasha are you alright?" Inuyasha looked over his
shoulder his smile still there. "Course I am woman. I feel great!" With that Inuyasha started to laugh lightly all the
way to the house. Kagome was about about to faint from shock. 'First he cries and now he laughs! Poor Inuyasha he must
denial!' Kagome ran after Inuyasha who was still laughing.
*********************************************************************************************************************
"Hellooooo! Is anyone there? I'm kinda stuck..." The camera zooms to shippo who has accumulated a few (acutally
quite a few) bumps on his small head. His tail has been tied to a tree branch on the God-Tree. "Heellooo?"
*********************************************************************************************************************
"Ok Inuyasha, you stay here and i'll tell my mom that your going to be staying for a while." Then Kagome's face become
scary looking and she yanked him by the head close to her. "BE NICE OR I WILL YOU KNOW WHAT YOU SO HARD IT"LL TAKE 500
YEARS JUST TO UNBURY YOU!" She let go and her face turned back to normal and she smiled sweetly. "ok?" Inuyasha stared
at her for a moment in shock (and maybe fear ;) ) then stood strait up again and crossed his arms. Turning his head and
closing his eyes he uttered a soft "Feh". 'Good enough for me.' Kagome decided.
Kagome turned around and started to open the door only to have it opened before she could grab the knob. Mrs. Higurashi
stood there with a smile on her face. "Oh its you. I was wondering what all the noice was about." Kagome sighed.
"Hi mom I..." Mrs. H. rushed passed a suprised Kagome and right to Inuyasha giving his ears a tweak. "How have you
been Inuyasha? I see you've been taking care of my daughter very well..." Inuyasha just bit his lip and listened to
Kagome's mother go on and on not bothering to stop to let him answer her questions. A peeved Kagome became more and
more peeved as she was totally ignored. "MOM!" Kagome's mother released Inuyasha's ears from her death grip.
"Oh dear, sorry honey." Kagome breathed a sigh of relief. Atleast she wasn't totaly forgotten. "I'm not trying
to steal your boyfriend. He is very cute though. Definately a keeper." Kagome stood there mouth agape while Inuyasha
just grinned. 'Whats a boyfriend I wonder?' "Now just dont stand out here come in come in." Mrs. Higurashi shooed
them all into the living room where they sat crosslegged around the table, Kagome across from Inuyasha, while Mrs. H
served tea.
"Mom is it all right if Inuyasha stays for a couple of weeks?" Mrs. H smiled. "Of course he can. He can stay with
Sota. Will he be going to your school?" "Yes." "NO!" Both said at the same time. "Why can't I go to this school
you are always so concerned with wen. er Kagome?" Inuyasha decided it wouldn't be very smart to insult Mrs. H's daughter
in front of her. His ears couldnt take it any more abuse from the woman.
"Becuase Inuyasha you don't know enough to pass as a normal kid in my school." Inuyasha became defensive. "Are you
saying i'm stupid?" Kagome let out an exasperated sigh. "No Inuyasha you're not stupid your just uneducated. Its not
your fault." Inuyasha didn't see a difference between stupid and uneducated. "I'll prove to you I'm not stupid."
He raised his voice. "I am going to school with you!" Kagome raised her voice as well. "You will NOT go to my
school Inuyasha!" Mrs. Higurashi watched this and smiled. 'They fight like we used to before we got married.'
Mrs. Higurashi couldnt resist. "So when are you marrying him dear?
Inuyasha and Kagome both blushed. Kagome turned to her mother, "MOTHER! We arent getting married!" Then she
turned to Inuyasha who was still blushing. "And YOU are not going to my school! And thats final!" She then
hmphed and turned her head. Inuyasha fehed and turned his head to. 'Three months tops.' Mrs. Higurashi
simply smiled and poured some more tea.
After the three of them had finished their tea Kagome went up to her room with her bag and Inuyasha followed
her up still grumbling about pushy women. Kagome sighed. "Look Inuyasha if you want to know about school so badly
I am sure Sota has a few books you could read. Then multiply the dificulty of those books by about 10 and you'll
see why you arent ready to come to my school. "Feh." 'I'll show her.' Kagome looked over at him with pity in her gaze.
'He really does want to come doesn't her?' "Inuyasha I really wish you could come. A lot of the subjects you might be
able to get by like History or art. Its just that math is really hard in my time. Most of the things we learn about
havent even been thought of in your time." Inuyasha just snorted and looked away. Shaking her head she set her bag
down and began taking things out. Her hands found the book that Inuyasha had torn earlier that day. It was
Pre-algebra. She had fallen so far behind that she had to take that book with her so she could review all of the
basic algebra she had forgotten. Suddenly an idea. She looked over at the peeved hanyou. "Inuyasha Ill make you a deal."
Inuyaha's ears perked up and he looked at her. "What sort of deal wench?" "If you can do the problems in this book ill
take you to school with me." She handed him the book. He too reconized it as the book he had torn and she could see
a glimmer of sadness in his eyes. But as quickly as it appeared it was gone and he humphed and sat down on the floor,
but he didnt toss the book away which she took as a good sign. Kagome glanced at the clock on her wall. 2:30. Sota
would be home soon. "I'm going to take a bath Inuyasha." He grunted and simply closed his eyes. (No not so she could
change) She took out some clean clothes and walked into the bathroom locking the door and praying Inuyasha didn't
charge into the room thinking she was in danger when she flushed the toilet or something. After discarding her clothes
Kagome sank into the warm bath. 'Why does he want to come to my school so much? I'd really love it if he did come.
Finally my friends would stop bugging me about Hojo if I came to school with a cute guy like Inuyasha.'
'Wait a minute. Did I say cute?' Kagome sighed and sank deeper into the bath. 'I guess Inuyasha is cute. If only he
wasnt such a jerk most of the time.' Kagome played with the water in the bath. 'Sometimes he's nice. He tries to project
a macho, better than the rest of the world image, but underneath he really is sweet and caring. Maybe now that he's in
my time he'll be like that more.' Kagome smiled and closed her eyes her imagination showing her images of Inuyasha
picking her flowers, opening the door for her, taking her out to diner. And afterwards at the doorstep he leaned down
and their faces got closer and closer and. Kagome fell asleep. (a/n I am evil)
Kagome awoke about a half hour later. She got out of the tub and dried off. Getting dressed she walked out of the
bathroom still scrubbing her hair with a towel. She nearly tripped when she saw Inuyasha sitting near the window cross
legged ready the Pre-algebra book. Judging by where he was in the book he had been reading for quite a while. 'I didnt
really think he'd do it.' Then Inuyasha notice Kagome and shut the book none to carefully and tossed it away from him.
"So I take it your accepting my challenge?" Inuyasha closed his eyes and folded his arms. "Feh maybe." 'There he goes
into tough guy mode. If only he'd be more like in my dream.' Kagome's face flushed as she remembered the little scene
of Inuyasha being a gentlemen and almost kissing her tell she fell asleep. Inuyasha looked up and saw Kagome glowing red.
"Oi Kagome you sick?" Kagome turned away and covered her face with her towel. "No no Im fine Inuyasha the bath was just
a little warm."
"Keh. Figures a stupid girl like you would nearly boil herself alive." 'grrrrr'. "Inuyasha I am not stupid. But even
if I am its becuase you and your dumb shards are keeping me away from school." Apparently Kagome also didnt know the
difference between uneducated and stupid. Inuyasha was about to give her a nasty response when Sota burst into the
room. "Where is he!? All right Inuyasha!" Sota ran over to where Inuyasha sat. "You're going to stay with me? Thats
soooo cool! We can play video games and watch movies and pick on my sister!" Inuyasha simply stared at the boy who's
main diet consisted of sugar.
"Sure whatever kid." Sota grinned exitedly. "I'm so glad that you're my sister's boyfriend now instead of that boring
hojo guy." Inuyasha still didn't know what a boyfriend was, but if Sota was glad that it was him and not ho-ho or whatver
his name is it must be good. "Oi Kagome whats a boyfriend?" Kagome who had finally stopped blushing began to
blush anew. "I umm. Ill tell you later. Ok? Im going to take a bath." She beat a hasty retreat to the bathroom.
"But you just took one." 'Darn he noticed.' "You can never be too clean Inuyasha. Go play with Sota for a while."
Inuyasha watched her go back into the bathroom and shut the door. Then he got up grumbling about strange females
and allowed himself to be lead to Sota's room. "Hey Sota whats a boyfriends?" Sota looked up at his idol. "Um
I dont really understand very well, becuase its got something to do with a girl and a guy and girls are icky!
Except for Kagome shes ok." Inuyasha simply shrugged. "But I know that they go out on dates. Hojo took Kagome on one,
but Kagome didn't seem to enjoy it very much."
Inuyasha soon became well aquanted with a strange magic box that Sota gave up trying to explain that was
called a 'Play Stay shon' which was connected to a televion which Kagome had explained in one of his previous
visits. After several hours of playing a game consisting of two people beating the heck out of each other (which
Inuyasha liked very much) it was time for dinner. Sota dragged the hanyou away from beating the heck out of
people and they went down stairs.
Everyone else was already sitting down around the table when they arrived. When Kagome's grandfather saw him
he jumped up. "Don't worry Sota i'll stop this demon from eating you!" With that he pulled out a small piece
of paper with Demon wards on it. "This demon sealing spell has been passed down in our family for generations."
With that he ran up and smacked it on Inuyasha's nose. Inuyasha looked at the thing stuck between his nose.
He then plucked it off and handed it back to the old man. "What kind of crappy spell is this old man?"
Inuyasha sat down next to Kagome and an embarrased Sota while the distraght old man wailed and cried over his
failed spell. Kagome handed him a bowl of rice and shot him a warning glance when he was about to shovel it
ravenously into his mouth. 'Gotta make a good impression.' He ate slowly and carefully and answered various
questions they asked him only after he had swallowed. "So Inuyasha. How is your quest for the shard going?"
asked the now calm grandfather. "Great! We almost have half the shard. If we keep this rate up we'll have it
all within a year!" Kagome didn't look all that exited about this and Inuyasha wasn't either. 'Why use the
jewel when I am now accepted for what I am?' Inuyasha silently prayed that their quest would never end. (a/n
So Do I! whats a world without Inuyasha episodes?)
Inuyasha continued to answer the questions he was asked until he was finished. When Mrs. H had cleared the
table Kagome got up and Inuyasha followed her up to her room. She opened the door and stopped in the door frame.
"Well Inuyasha I'm going to bed." Inuyasha nodded. "Kagome? I'm glad I came." Kagome smiled and nodded. "So am
I." Kagome could feel her heart beat faster. He was going to kiss her like in her dream! Inuyasha leaned foreward
Kagome's heart felt like it was going to break free and run away. He leaned even closer. "Kagome?" "Wha what
Inuyasha?" Their faces where mere inches apart. He lifted a hand and pointed. "You're drooling." "ARGHHHHH!"
*Slam* Inuyasha stared at the door. He called into the room. "What did I do?!"
****************************************************************************************************************
Kagome sighed. She hadn't really been paying much attention in school today. Her mind still brought her back
to last night. 'I was so sure he was going to kiss me!' she thought sadly. The bell rang and she got up and
walked slowly to her locker. When she shut it Hojo was standing there. "Hello Kagome!" Bright and cheerful
Hojo. Ugh just what Kagome didn't need. "I see you're better from your diabetes." 'Note to self get grandpa
a book on young peoples diseases.' Kagome plastered a fake smile to her face. "Sure am Hojo thanks."
Hojo beamed. "Listen Kagome. Would you like to go to a movie with me after school Friday?" 'NOOOOOOO!'
Kagome gave him another fake smile but made it look a little sad. "Sorry Hojo I can't." "Oh." Hojo's
face drooped. But then he was back to cheerful mode. "Well Ill see you tommorow. Bye!" "Bye Hojo!"
Kagome walked out of the school and headed home. Her mind already filled with Inuyasha. "Hey Kagome!"
It was her three friends Ayumi, Eri, and Yuka. "Hey guys. Hows it going?" They all smiled and started
to walk with Kagome. "Great." said Eri. "Is it all right if we come over today?" Kagome smiled. This
time for real. "Sure why not." Yuka grinned. "Hey Kagome did you see that cute new kid?"
***************************************************************************************************************
"And this scroll I got from my Great-Grandfather. It is supposed to cleanse tortured spirits and send them
to the afterlife." Inuyasha sighed. Did this guy ever shut up? Inuyasha was outside in his firerat robes
sweeping the grounds. 'I volunteered to help to get away from this guy. Cant he take a hint?' "I am sure
you know all kinds of priests and monks. Perhaps when you go back you could bring me some charms?" "Sure gramps.
I'll try and remember." 'Anything to get you to shut up.'
Just then Kagome and her friends came up the steps. Inuyasha froze looking like a deer caught in headlights.
'Oh Crap I dont have that hat thing on.' His ears twitched a little. Just then Yuka noticed him. "Oh wow
Kagome no wonder you're always dumping Hojo. This guy is HOT!" Yuka whispered to Kagome making her blush.
Inuyasha didn't know about this hot thing but if Kagome was droping Hobo in water then that was good he guessed.
The three girls ran exitedly over to meet Inuyasha. "So are you Inuyasha?" asked Ayumi. "Umm yes?" Eri squeled.
"Look at those adorable ears!" All three girls reached up and touched his ears. "Theyre so soft!" cried Yuka.
"Whered you get those?" Inuyasha didn't know what to say, but thankfully grandpa came to the rescue. "He got
them at my gift shop." Claimed the quick-witted old man. 'Thank you grandpa' Thought Kagome. "really?" asked
Eri? Grandpa nodded. "Yes, unfortunately we are all sold out at the moment. Come with me and i'll let you sign
up to get some. The three girls followed Kagomes grandpa to the gift shop. Yuka stopped and shouted. "Don't let
him escape before we get to talk to him Kagome!"
Kagome sighed swearing she saw dollarsigns in Grandpas eyes. She walked over to Inuyasha. "I think you may have
actually given grandpa a good idea for once." Inuyasha snorted. "Sorry about letting the see me like that." he mumbled
Kagome shrugged. "Its alright I was going to introduce you anyway. "Really? Does that mean your going to let me go to
your school?" Kagome glared at him. "You know the deal Inuyasha. 'Yes I do. I was trying to get the old fogeys
help but then he started to jabber about spells and crap.' Sighing Inuyasha kept on sweeping.
THERE! My longest chapter ever! I would continue but its bedtime. Please R&R!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have to say that I am VERY pleased with this chapter. It took me some three hours to write even though
I had made up most of it already. Comments, Suggestions, Deaththreats, story requests?

Kagome sank into the warm bath. 'Why does he want to come to my school so much? I'd really love it if he did come.
Finally my friends would stop bugging me about Hojo if I came to school with a cute guy like Inuyasha.'
'Wait a minute. Did I say cute?' Kagome sighed and sank deeper into the bath. 'I guess Inuyasha is cute. If only he
wasnt such a jerk most of the time.' Kagome played with the water in the bath. 'Sometimes he's nice. He tries to project
a macho, better than the rest of the world image, but underneath he really is sweet and caring. Maybe now that he's in
my time he'll be like that more.' Kagome smiled and closed her eyes her imagination showing her images of Inuyasha
picking her flowers, opening the door for her, taking her out to diner. And afterwards at the doorstep he leaned down
and their faces got closer and closer and. Kagome fell asleep. (a/n I am evil)
Kagome awoke about a half hour later. She got out of the tub and dried off. Getting dressed she walked out of the
bathroom still scrubbing her hair with a towel. She nearly tripped when she saw Inuyasha sitting near the window cross
legged ready the Pre-algebra book. Judging by where he was in the book he had been reading for quite a while. 'I didnt
really think he'd do it.' Then Inuyasha notice Kagome and shut the book none to carefully and tossed it away from him.
"So I take it your accepting my challenge?" Inuyasha closed his eyes and folded his arms. "Feh maybe." 'There he goes
into tough guy mode. If only he'd be more like in my dream.' Kagome's face flushed as she remembered the little scene
of Inuyasha being a gentlemen and almost kissing her tell she fell asleep. Inuyasha looked up and saw Kagome glowing red.
"Oi Kagome you sick?" Kagome turned away and covered her face with her towel. "No no Im fine Inuyasha the bath was just
a little warm."
"Keh. Figures a stupid girl like you would nearly boil herself alive." 'grrrrr'. "Inuyasha I am not stupid. But even
if I am its becuase you and your dumb shards are keeping me away from school." Apparently Kagome also didnt know the
difference between uneducated and stupid. Inuyasha was about to give her a nasty response when Sota burst into the
room. "Where is he!? All right Inuyasha!" Sota ran over to where Inuyasha sat. "You're going to stay with me? Thats
soooo cool! We can play video games and watch movies and pick on my sister!" Inuyasha simply stared at the boy who's
main diet consisted of sugar.
"Sure whatever kid." Sota grinned exitedly. "I'm so glad that you're my sister's boyfriend now instead of that boring
hojo guy." Inuyasha still didn't know what a boyfriend was, but if Sota was glad that it was him and not ho-ho or whatver
his name is it must be good. "Oi Kagome whats a boyfriend?" Kagome who had finally stopped blushing began to
blush anew. "I umm. Ill tell you later. Ok? Im going to take a bath." She beat a hasty retreat to the bathroom.
"But you just took one." 'Darn he noticed.' "You can never be too clean Inuyasha. Go play with Sota for a while."
Inuyasha watched her go back into the bathroom and shut the door. Then he got up grumbling about strange females
and allowed himself to be lead to Sota's room. "Hey Sota whats a boyfriends?" Sota looked up at his idol. "Um
I dont really understand very well, becuase its got something to do with a girl and a guy and girls are icky!
Except for Kagome shes ok." Inuyasha simply shrugged. "But I know that they go out on dates. Hojo took Kagome on one,
but Kagome didn't seem to enjoy it very much."
Inuyasha soon became well aquanted with a strange magic box that Sota gave up trying to explain that was
called a 'Play Stay shon' which was connected to a televion which Kagome had explained in one of his previous
visits. After several hours of playing a game consisting of two people beating the heck out of each other (which
Inuyasha liked very much) it was time for dinner. Sota dragged the hanyou away from beating the heck out of
people and they went down stairs.
Everyone else was already sitting down around the table when they arrived. When Kagome's grandfather saw him
he jumped up. "Don't worry Sota i'll stop this demon from eating you!" With that he pulled out a small piece
of paper with Demon wards on it. "This demon sealing spell has been passed down in our family for generations."
With that he ran up and smacked it on Inuyasha's nose. Inuyasha looked at the thing stuck between his nose.
He then plucked it off and handed it back to the old man. "What kind of crappy spell is this old man?"
Inuyasha sat down next to Kagome and an embarrased Sota while the distraght old man wailed and cried over his
failed spell. Kagome handed him a bowl of rice and shot him a warning glance when he was about to shovel it
ravenously into his mouth. 'Gotta make a good impression.' He ate slowly and carefully and answered various
questions they asked him only after he had swallowed. "So Inuyasha. How is your quest for the shard going?"
asked the now calm grandfather. "Great! We almost have half the shard. If we keep this rate up we'll have it
all within a year!" Kagome didn't look all that exited about this and Inuyasha wasn't either. 'Why use the
jewel when I am now accepted for what I am?' Inuyasha silently prayed that their quest would never end. (a/n
So Do I! whats a world without Inuyasha episodes?)
Inuyasha continued to answer the questions he was asked until he was finished. When Mrs. H had cleared the
table Kagome got up and Inuyasha followed her up to her room. She opened the door and stopped in the door frame.
"Well Inuyasha I'm going to bed." Inuyasha nodded. "Kagome? I'm glad I came." Kagome smiled and nodded. "So am
I." Kagome could feel her heart beat faster. He was going to kiss her like in her dream! Inuyasha leaned foreward
Kagome's heart felt like it was going to break free and run away. He leaned even closer. "Kagome?" "Wha what
Inuyasha?" Their faces where mere inches apart. He lifted a hand and pointed. "You're drooling." "ARGHHHHH!"
*Slam* Inuyasha stared at the door. He called into the room. "What did I do?!"
****************************************************************************************************************
Kagome sighed. She hadn't really been paying much attention in school today. Her mind still brought her back
to last night. 'I was so sure he was going to kiss me!' she thought sadly. The bell rang and she got up and
walked slowly to her locker. When she shut it Hojo was standing there. "Hello Kagome!" Bright and cheerful
Hojo. Ugh just what Kagome didn't need. "I see you're better from your diabetes." 'Note to self get grandpa
a book on young peoples diseases.' Kagome plastered a fake smile to her face. "Sure am Hojo thanks."
Hojo beamed. "Listen Kagome. Would you like to go to a movie with me after school Friday?" 'NOOOOOOO!'
Kagome gave him another fake smile but made it look a little sad. "Sorry Hojo I can't." "Oh." Hojo's
face drooped. But then he was back to cheerful mode. "Well Ill see you tommorow. Bye!" "Bye Hojo!"
Kagome walked out of the school and headed home. Her mind already filled with Inuyasha. "Hey Kagome!"
It was her three friends Ayumi, Eri, and Yuka. "Hey guys. Hows it going?" They all smiled and started
to walk with Kagome. "Great." said Eri. "Is it all right if we come over today?" Kagome smiled. This
time for real. "Sure why not." Yuka grinned. "Hey Kagome did you see that cute new kid?"
***************************************************************************************************************
"And this scroll I got from my Great-Grandfather. It is supposed to cleanse tortured spirits and send them
to the afterlife." Inuyasha sighed. Did this guy ever shut up? Inuyasha was outside in his firerat robes
sweeping the grounds. 'I volunteered to help to get away from this guy. Cant he take a hint?' "I am sure
you know all kinds of priests and monks. Perhaps when you go back you could bring me some charms?" "Sure gramps.
I'll try and remember." 'Anything to get you to shut up.'
Just then Kagome and her friends came up the steps. Inuyasha froze looking like a deer caught in headlights.
'Oh Crap I dont have that hat thing on.' His ears twitched a little. Just then Yuka noticed him. "Oh wow
Kagome no wonder you're always dumping Hojo. This guy is HOT!" Yuka whispered to Kagome making her blush.
Inuyasha didn't know about this hot thing but if Kagome was droping Hobo in water then that was good he guessed.
The three girls ran exitedly over to meet Inuyasha. "So are you Inuyasha?" asked Ayumi. "Umm yes?" Eri squeled.
"Look at those adorable ears!" All three girls reached up and touched his ears. "Theyre so soft!" cried Yuka.
"Whered you get those?" Inuyasha didn't know what to say, but thankfully grandpa came to the rescue. "He got
them at my gift shop." Claimed the quick-witted old man. 'Thank you grandpa' Thought Kagome. "really?" asked
Eri? Grandpa nodded. "Yes, unfortunately we are all sold out at the moment. Come with me and i'll let you sign
up to get some. The three girls followed Kagomes grandpa to the gift shop. Yuka stopped and shouted. "Don't let
him escape before we get to talk to him Kagome!"
Kagome sighed swearing she saw dollarsigns in Grandpas eyes. She walked over to Inuyasha. "I think you may have
actually given grandpa a good idea for once." Inuyasha snorted. "Sorry about letting the see me like that." he mumbled
Kagome shrugged. "Its alright I was going to introduce you anyway. "Really? Does that mean your going to let me go to
your school?" Kagome glared at him. "You know the deal Inuyasha. 'Yes I do. I was trying to get the old fogeys
help but then he started to jabber about spells and crap.' Sighing Inuyasha kept on sweeping.
