A/N: Welcome to the long awaited chapter eleven, well not really. I'd like to thanks the reviewers and readers that stuck with me up to now. My stupid question still stands, what is a beta-reader? Frankly I've been senile lately ever since I accidentally poured rice down the drain and broke my sink in the process. -_-; This will cost a whole lotto damage repairs....Anyway I know Kagome keeps on questioning what she is and so is Inuyasha. Everything will be understood in due time or maybe the next fifteen chapters.(Kidding:]). So please stick around and enjoy the chapter, hopefully it won't be as choppy.
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha nor do I own Survivor.
Beyond the wiring
Chapter eleven
I'm his WHAT?! I'm her WHAT?!
Kagome sighed, it had been twenty four hours since her encounter with Inuyasha. Now she'd have to face the dreaded building called school, hopefully no one would bug her as much as they did last time. Since Inuyasha would be watching her instead of her watching him.
Glancing at her reflection in the mirror one last time, she bounded out the door with her backpack slung over her shoulder. Maneuvering her way through the hallways and corridors, she reached the garage where Inuyasha waited, leaning impatiently on motorcycle. She recalled seeing one speed down the road on her last excursion with Inuyasha, marveling it's perfect condition and unique decals.
"Well? hop on" Inuyasha eyed her lazily smirking at her impressed expression as she marveled his bike.
Kagome got on inching away from Inuyasha, he sighed pulling her closer to him wrapping her arms tightly around his waist. She complied hugging onto Inuyasha, practically crushing her body against him.
With a zoom, they were off hair flying in their face and the adrenaline coursing in their veins. Kagome gave a hearty laugh, she was actually enjoying this. She loved to watch the scenery and the people rush by and wind whipping in her face. A feeling of freedom rushing through her.
"Inuyasha! This is great"
"Keh!"
Kagome ignored him savoring the feeling of wind in her hair, no matter what Inuyasha said. He'd never be able to bring down her spirits today, today seemed to be agree with her. She turned to look the blue cloudy sky, a smile grazing her lips and a sparkle in her caldet blue eyes. Inuyasha seemed to agree, his eyes holding it's illustriousness just like before, when she was alive.
The motorcycle came to a stop in one of the parking spaces as Kagome got off waiting for Inuyasha to lead her to her next class. After locking up his motorcycle, he headed to 'A' building with Kagome following close behind him. Inuyasha gave Kagome a pleading glance as the mass of Inuyasha's fan club approached, she nodded giving him a assuring smile.
He wrapped a arm around her waist pushing her closer to him as the 'We love Inuyasha' fan club screeched to halt, unbelieving the scene that lay before them. Inuyasha was practically smothering the girl next to her, the very girl he brought last time. Fire burned in their eyes as they saw him plant a kiss on Kagome's cheek.
"Oi dog boy what are you doing?" She hissed in his ear.
"Shut up, the fan club is leaving. Make one wrong move and they'll suspect that I'm faking it." he whispered back breaking away from their 'embrace'.
Sango and Miroku walked up to him looking smug, their hands hid behind their back looking as innocent as ever. Kagome and Inuyasha's face colored a red hue, as Miroku chuckled amusedly.
"Inuyasha you dog, you finally got together"
Inuyasha whacked him whilst Kagome yanked his ponytail, turning the color of a ripe tomato.
"Nothing like that you pervert!" They shouted at the same time watching Sango slap him unconscious. Then they saw it, a camera Sango hid behind her back was now in the open. Kagome snatched it away, throwing it against the floor crushing it with the heel of her loafers. Sango and Inuyasha watched dumbfounded as Kagome continued to assault and destroy the poor camera which was being crushed to little black bits.
Inuyasha caught on, a growl emitted from his throat as he neared closer to the nervous Sango and the almost conscious Miroku.
"What were you planning to do with that camera?" He asked harshly noticing the fear in their eyes.
"Yeah what were you planning to do with that camera?" Kagome questioned turning up minutes later. The black camera lay a heap of plastic and wires and alkaline fluid.
"Err taking pictures" Sango stammered, her eyes darting back and forth searching for a place to escape.
"Of what I may ask?" Kagome asked sweetly.
Before Sango could answer, Inuyasha cut her off with rage burning in his amber eyes. "You were planning to take pictures of us? weren't you? Hey come back here!" He commanded.
Both Inuyasha and Kagome chasing the retreating Sango who was practically running everywhere before scrambling into the Girls bathroom hiding in one of the stalls, standing on the toilet hiding her feet.
Footstep echoed in the vacant bathroom, as the same black loafers came into view. Sango eeped as the stall door swung opened, her eyes widening in surprise.
"Kag-gome?" She stuttered as her friend flashed a 'I'm-going-to-kill-you-until-you-beg-for-mercy' look. Dragging her out of the bathroom only to meet up with Inuyasha who also held the same look on his face. After dealing with a very sorry Sango and making Miroku unconscious several times. They were satisfied smiling happily as Sango and Miroku groaned in pain. Sango was stuck in the janitors closet tied up with a unconscious Miroku, things were not looking up for her.
"Houshi!" She hissed giving him a swift kick to the face with her free leg.
"Yes Sango dear?" He drawled out partly unconscious because of the swift blow to the head.
"Do you have the pictures and the backup camera?"
"Yes"
One moment, he was unconscious the next he was beaten to a bloody pulp by Sango who was kept muttering 'Hentai' with each blow, the passing students hearing Houshi's cries of pain.
-----
The bell rung and Inuyasha and Kagome headed to their next class completely forgetting about the tied up Sango and the pervert in the janitor's closet. Taking their seat, they listened the teacher take roll as the color drained from their faces. They had forgotten about Sango and Miroku, Sango could of killed the poor Houshi by now. They both excused themselves, rushing down the hall.
Nervously, they opened the door scared of Sango's reaction to their presence since they left them in there for about an hour, they didn't know what Sango might do.
A) Kill or B) Torture
Neither of them sounded less painful, Thank god she was tied up. The door revealed a very agitated and bindless Sango and a battered Miroku who was drooling on the floor.
Sango's eyes just twitched as she got out, staying silent whilst Miroku was being dragged down the hall by Inuyasha. Kagome stared at her cluttered best friend who looked like she had spent a week on Survivor, her hair tousled, her uniform wrinkled and what looked like smears of paint dabbed under her eyes.
They returned to class, Sango sat in her seat droning on and on like a zombie while Miroku was sent to the Nurse's office because all of the bruises and black eyes, he received.
Kagome listened to the teacher's lecture attentively, Inuyasha fell asleep drooling on his Literature book and Sango sat hyperventilating on the spot muttering 'Hentai'
After three periods of coaxing Sango snapped out of it acting as normal as ever, except for the fact that she never seemed to remember getting locked up with Miroku in the Janitor's closet. Kagome poked her cafeteria thing which looked like pizza and Inuyasha complained about food while kicking Miroku and Miroku just kept on passing out.
And that's when they came, hoards and hoards of admirers carrying gifts of all sorts, candy, chocolate, stuffed animals, flowers and even a kiss on the cheek. People even wore 'I love Kagome' T-shirts from who knows where, Kagome sat there dumb struck as they each gave her presents. Mountains of gifts towering over them looking as if it would fall any minute. Then Kouga came holding a black velvet box before dashing away to leave Kagome dumb struck. Inside was the most beautiful and most expensive gift, she had ever seen. A necklace made of pure white gold with a pendant shaped like a sakura blossom made of pink diamonds, They all gaped in awe, Inuyasha jealous that Kouga had brought a smile to her face while he only made her frown and even cry. He wanted to make her smile, not Kouga who only wanted her for her looks and for the reputation.
She smiled as it was clasped around her neck shining with all it's glory, people envious of the jewelry that hung around her neck. She was stunned for the first time, someone had actually cared enough to give something precious.
"Thank you"
After attempting to stuff all of Kagome's present in their backpacks, Inuyasha decided to call a limo to pick up all of the stuff and drop it off at the mansion.
They continued with their lunch, Kagome still poking her mutant pizza, Inuyasha still being irritable as ever, Miroku who just kept on getting more and more brain damage and Sango babbling away oblivious of her surroundings. Kagome pulled out a bento from her backpack tossing it to Inuyasha who's stomach was growling.
"Oi why didn't you just give to me earlier, you could of spared me the misery and the starvation" he barked catching the bento with one swift movement.
"I only remembered now" She replied nonchalantly tossing her plate of mutant pizza who knows where.
"Senile old bitch"
"I'm not the dog remember you are mutt!" She shot back her blood boiling from the last comment.
"Wench"
"Mutt"
"Wench"
"Mutt"
"Wench"
"Mutt"
"Wench"
"MUTT!!!"
"WENCH!!!"
Sango and Miroku just watched amusedly as their friends argued they seemed to do a lot of arguing lately. If only they could get together instead of wasting their time arguing. They sweat dropped as the arguing became more heated, Miroku tried to stop the two from bickering whilst Sango avoided it all together watching Houshi get yelled at by Kagome and Inuyasha. She swore they both acted like children and it seemed like she was the only mature person around. Oh well, Kagome would be Kagome and Inuyasha would be Inuyasha.
The bell rung leaving the two's argument to a halt as they made their way through the flow of students, Sango and Miroku sighed, they were like one of those on and off couples. Shaking their heads, they followed Inuyasha and Kagome's retreating figures. All four of them having the same class, History with Urasue-Sensei.
They filed into the classroom taking seats in the back, Inuyasha sitting in-front of Kagome, Sango sitting next to Kagome and Miroku sitting next to Inuyasha. Urasue-Sensei stood up scanning through the rows taking roll.
"Higurashi?"
Kagome stood up bowing curtly before sitting back down, putting her head down to rest on her folded arms.
"Akuma?"
Inuyasha stood up giving the teacher a 'feh' before sitting back down propping his feet on the desk.
"Tajiya?"
Sango stood up mumbling incoherently before sitting back down, falling asleep on the spot.
"Kazaana?"
"Mmmfth...." Miroku mumbled adding more drool to the puddle gathering at the foot of his desk.
"Class, Today we are going to start on the projects on the Muromachi era. Remember your grades for the semester depend on this project. Fail this project and you fail, You will be partnered in two's and I'm not going to change them. Either live with it or fail." Urasue-sensei croaked pointing a bony finger at the board.
The class groaned, Urasue-sensei was one of the strictest teachers on campus. Miss one assignment and you'll be sure to get your name on her fail list. She let out a throaty cackle at their futile protests, she'd be sure to bring her fail list out starting with Inuyasha Akuma, that little brat wormed his way through the school board dispelling her complaints as false accusations and getting grades he didn't deserve. And he reduced her favorite student to nothing, he found his way into Kikyo Takara's life and forced her grades to drop horrendously. Such a pity, that she had run into that vile child, she was such a wonderful student.
The new student Kagome Higurashi seemed to be the right person to put that inconsistent brat into place since she seemed to be one of the better students. She had seen Higurashi quarrel with Akuma before and she tended to dominate the conversation. She liked that, a smart witty student to put the devil child into place. The strange thing was she resembled closely to Kikyo except her aura seemed to be a totally different story. Mainly, Higurashi was able to put Akuma in his place so..70; She have to pair them up hopefully Higurashi would put Akuma into shape.
"I will now be announcing your partners for you projects:
Higurashi and Akuma
Tajiya and Kazaana
Ookami and Imoyotsu...................."
The rest of the names were forgotten as Inuyasha and Sango cried in outrage pointing at Kagome and Miroku as if they were poison.
"Why do I have to be paired with him!"
"Why do I have to be paired with her!"
Urasue-Sensei merely snorted at the two, her two black beady eyes bore into theirs as a smug look overturned her features.
"Because.....I said so and anyway you can't change it or else you'll fail"
They sat back down muttering strings of curses sending glares Urasue-sensei then back at their partners.
"It's no surprise that I'm your partner" Kagome commented skimming through the paper given by Urasue-sensei. Inuyasha slammed his hands on his desk coming face to face with a dead pan Kagome who in turned yawn boredly.
"Why is that wench" He hissed, this girl was practically impossible and he'd depend on her to help him pass Urasue-Sensei's class. There was no freaking way, he turned to glare at Urasue-sensei, he had a feeling she had done this to spite him. After all, he was the one who cheated her all these months, her being ridiculed because she couldn't handle one student.
"Hn? We have to work on a legend of the dog demon and the priestess" She replied obviously ignoring his earlier comments. Inuyasha gave a small grunt indicating he understood, he might as well try to work with her since his whole semester grade depended on her.
Kagome rolled her eyes at Inuyasha's short witted reply, Whatever to happened to being civil to one another. It disappeared the moment, they stepped on school grounds. Probably trying to keep up his tough guy reputation as if Kagome knew the softy he was. Now all she had to do was convince him to let her touch the cute little ears a top his head and her agenda would be complete.
"Remember you must find some way to show or display your project along with a display board with facts, information and pictures on your project and a two-page essay on the Muromachi era and your project."
They all groaned, this teacher wanted the impossible and damn did she assign a lot of work. Kagome perked up smiling broadly at the teacher while Inuyasha stared at her with the least of interest mouthing 'teachers pet'. She caught that pinching a doggie ear a top his head, he yelped in pain nurturing his poor injured ear.
"Owwww wench! What is your fucking problem?"
"Hmmm lemme guess.....YOU?" She replied tartly, her voice dripping with saracasm.
"Har har"
Inuyasha sat in his seat leaning on her desk as he watched Kagome sort through the papers, a look of determination plastered on her face. It was sorta funny how she see was so easily read like a book, her emotions shown in her eyes. It was left him wondering...how could she feel this way? Someone who supposedly didn't breath, who's heart didn't beat and here she was breathing, living and feeling. She was a puzzle to him, a puzzle he probably wouldn't solve ever.
She glanced at Inuyasha who seemed to be in his little dream land, dreaming away...she wished she was like him, to be able to dream and to wish. To be like a regular human able to....love him. Love? A feeling she had soared upon yet it left her to fall into the darkness. Where to her love wasn't possible......
The bell rang snapping her and Inuyasha out of their reverie, tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear. She pulled out a empty folder from her bag placing the small clutters of paper in it before hurrily shoving it into her bag to catch up to Inuyasha who was already down the hall.
Treading lightly down, she skidded to a stop only to bump into a Kouga who smirked pressing him closer to her. She jerked away placing one hand on her hip, a sour look gracing her face.
"And what do you think you're doing?" she repirmanded fiddling with the strap of her backpack.
"Ah feisty! that's why you're my woman"
"What? Who?! How?!"
His reply was interrupted as a hand got a hold of her wrist dragging her down the hall, She wrenched out of his grasp walking along side him. She looked back sighing in relief, that Kouga hadn't followed her or did anything drastic. Smiling, she rushed to the parking lot ready to face another trip on the Inuyasha's prized motorcycle.
Finally, he got on with Kagome following suit wrapping her arms tightly around his waist remembering the freedom, she had felt on her last ride. With a the rumble of the motor, they were off speeding out of the parking lot and down the road, Kagome giggling all the way home.
