Chapter 20- The Potion
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~Lunch~
Kagome walked down the hall to the cafeteria in deep thought. She was also rubbing her left ear. The last period she had had Kagome could only pick up a few things anyone was saying. Especially her teachers and when she was asked a question it got worse. She not only couldn't understand the question she couldn't answer in English for some reason. It was really messed up to her seeing as she could understand everyone perfectly the day before. She reached the cafeteria and looked around for someone to sit with. She located the table her friends had put their backpacks on and walked over to it. The only people sitting down were Emily and Inu-Yasha. Everyone else bought lunch rather than brought it.
As Kagome passed a table Jinni stared at Kagome with a triumphant grin plastered on her face. 'It worked I knew it would. Now she'll know what hell is'. She laughed an evil laugh lightly under her breath so no one noticed it. Then she turned back to her table and began gossiping.
"Hey, Kagome" Emily said as Kagome got within earshot.
"Hey, Emily" Kagome said assuming she was saying hello.
"Stop speaking in Japanese. You've been doing it all day. No one can understand you, you know that?" Emily said
"What did you just say? You make no sense at all" she sat down saying this.
"Seriously Kagome, stop" Inu-Yasha barked from his place at the round table. It was the first thing he said the whole time.
"I just won't talk then ok?!" She got out her lunch from her bag and started to eat. Not looking at anyone.
Emily and Inu-Yasha just looked at each other thoroughly puzzled as to what that little outburst was. At that point everyone else came back from getting their food (bleh…school food). "Hey everybody!!! How's it going?" Bry yelled despite the close proximity.
"How do YOU think we are?" Skye said wincing because she was standing next to Bry.
"I don't know how YOU are because I am ME, and I'm feeling hyper" She said
"It's a school day, it's pretty nice outside do you think that anyone else in this school feels like you do when they're trapped in a hellhole like this?" Skye asked. They were all seated now.
"Hmmm…no, but that's what makes me special. Even though I am trapped in a hellhole of learning fun I smile so why can't you?" Bry smiled at the end of this.
"You make me so sick you know that?" Skye said and started to eat signifying the end of that conversation.
As this was all going on Kagome got increasingly irritated. 'Why the hell are they doing this? It's so frustrating, what did everyone do change the national language? No that would be impossible, so why can't I understand anyone?' She started to calm down and think about it rationally. The bell rang shortly after and Kagome quickly got up and went off to her class not even noticing Inu-Yasha was right behind her. He was somewhat concerned because she hadn't said a word to him since the little outburst he couldn't understand.
'Something is going on and I intend to find out what' Inu-Yasha thought. Then he spotted Jinni. Her blue eyes sparkling waving at him. 'Doesn't she ever quit?' He spun around and walked to his next class. Turns out Jinni was Inu-Yasha's Ex-Girlfriend and she still had the hots for him.
Jinni just glared at his retreating back, but she had a plan she would get Inu-Yasha also for ignoring her and most of all dumping her for Kagome. She had just the thing to do the job too. Jinni stood in the hall glaring until the last bell rang. Then she snapped out of it and ran to her next class knowing she would be in a lot of trouble with a monitor if not her teacher.
~~Two Days Later~~
Inu-Yasha sat in his den playing a video game. He was really concentrating on getting to the next level when the doorbell rang and he got killed. He stared with wide eyes at the screen as it read "GAME OVER". The doorbell rang again. 'Eh, someone else will get it. Oh man, everybody's out dammit!' He stood up as the ringing got more persistent. "I'M COMING" he screamed as he made his way to the front of the house. The ringing stopped at once. He got to the door twisted the knob and pulled it angrily open. Jinni was on the other side with her hands behind her back.
"Hi Inu-Yasha" she said as sweetly as possible.
"What the hell are you doing here?" he basically growled
"Come outside for a moment would you?" Jinni asked trying to maintain her 'sweetness'.
"Hell no not with you out there. As I said before what the hell are you doing here?" Inu-Yasha repeated getting madder than he already was.
"Fine" Jinni said flatly losing all the sweetness in her voice. "Then I guess I'll just have to come in there" She said as she very quickly opened the storm door and revealed what was behind her back. It was a vial with bluish looking liquid in it.
"Get out!" Inu-Yasha told her with a warning voice.
"You can't make me because you can't catch me" Jinni remarked. It was true Jinni was the fastest person he had ever known. She was the school's best sprinter and had won over ten awards. Besides that she was quick with not only her legs but her arms as well so she could hit someone without them knowing until it was too late. It was very impressive if you weren't the one it was being targeted at.
Inu-Yasha glared menacingly at her, he suddenly took off his bracelet of leather and ears popped up, his nails turned into claws and his hair grew much longer. "Feh, now I'm stronger than you so even if you do get off a few hits it's not going to do anything"
"That's where you are mistaken Inu-Yasha. This potion in the vial will not kill you. It will only make you seem as though you are dead. Your face will lose it's color, your pulse will slow down so much that no one will be able to feel a pulse, and your body will grow very cold" (I don't own Romeo and Juliet) Jinni explained as she darted here and there. "It will be like you have died but you won't be"
"That's all great but you can't ma…" Inu-Yasha started but it was too late Jinni had already forced it down his throat as he was speaking. He fell backwards and soon all signs of life were void from him.
"You talk too much" Jinni said as she laughed maniacally. She then went outside and made her way to her house feeling very accomplished (0.o).
A/N: In case anyone was wondering this will be a pretty long story. But it will not go for many more chapters after this (but I could be lying). Hope everyone liked this chapter! Auf Wiedersehen (^-^) ~Tomo
