Chapter 3
Kagome almost rolled down the stairs from attempting to put a shoe on while still walking. She ran into the kitchen, nearly inhaled her food and began to choke.
"What's your problem child? Do you know what the meaning of chew is? Said her grandfather as he executed the Heimlich maneuver on Kagome. She finally spat it out.
"Yuck." Her mother commented.
"I'm late! Mr.Misikis' gonna kill me!
She gulped down some orange juice and headed outside. Kagome did not really care about school, but today was an exeption. Today were final exams and whoever came late got ten points off their grade-something she couldn't afford.
She walked past the very old tree and the shrine. She never really bothered to go in there, or listen to what her grandfather ever has to say about curses and rituals. She never saw anything that would prove to her that Gramps wasn't crazy until.
She froze in her tracks. She felt cold and weightless, then went back to her regular self. If was as if the climate changed for a second. A flash in the corner of her eye caught her attention. It came from the shrine. She eyed the shrine suspiciously, shook her head and as about to walk when she heard a loud thud echo from the shrine. She jumped at the sudden noise from the shrine. She stared directly at the shrine. A light slowly faded between the cracks of the door. Kagome bounced from one foot to another, chewing at the eraser of her pencil.
'Should I go in or go to school. Shrine, school. Shrine ,school.'
The next flash of light made it obvious she was going in. But not alone. She turned on her heel and began to make her way to her neighbor's house. She knocked on the door. Kagome knew her neighbor was still home because she did her exam a week early,
'Geek,' Kagome thought playfully to herself.
Kagome knocked harder. "Come on Sango. I know you're in there."
Sango opened the door in surprise. She checked her wall clock and opened her mouth to scold Kagome. Kagome raised her hand to stop her.
"Not now Sango, scold me later. There is something in the shrine and I don't want to find out what it is by myself."
"Why aren't you at-"
"Too late to go now."
Sango glared at Kagome then immediately smirked.
"This better be good, Kagome."
They walked up to the shrine door and both went in. Both of them stopped at the edge of the steps. Kagome gave Sango an after-you glance and smiled nervously. Sango stared at her for a second the dropped her mouth in disgust.
"So you call me out of my house to 'see if there is any poison in the food?'"
"What food?"
"Don't play dumb with me, Kagome, your innocence act won't work." Sango crossed her arms.
"No really, what food? I crammed down my breakfast and I am still hungry-"
"It's a figure of speech." Sango said nonchalantly.
"Hey! Your family are the exterminators here!"
"But those are bugs! Not the 'Monster from Well'"
".Ha ha. Funny. Look. Your older."
"Only by three months you-"
Sango could not finish her statement after hearing a slight moan echo through the well. The two thirteen-year old girls looked at each other and gaspedKagome did not hesitate.
"Somebody's hurt. Come on, Sango!"
She ran down the stairs (Sango took her precious time) and looked down the well.
"Hello-OMIGOSH! SANGO LOOK!"
"I don't know if I should."
She peered in and almost lost her breakfast. There lied a corpse, too burnt and cut and bruised to see if it was a boy or girl. She drew her own conclusion that, judging by the hair, it was a girl.
"Oh man. What to do know?"
"Get it out,"Kagome replied, "Oh that poor. whatever it is."
"HELLO! CAN YOU HEAR US?" Sango hollered down the well.
There was no reply. The two girls looked at each other and nodded with a slight doubt. They went out the shrine, and a few minutes later, they were both back with sheets, ropes, car keys, and a first aid kit.
"Are you sure about the car, Sango?"
"Relax. We are not doing this for us right? It is to save another life." She twirled the key ring on her finger and a slight smirk spread across her face. Kagome rolled her eyes.
"Yeah yeah Sango. You just want to drive the car."
".Whatever. Come on. You go down with the rope."
"ME?!?"
"I have to handle the car remember?"
"You WANT to handle the car!"
"Exactly. You're the one who called for help right? Now go."
She began walking to the Jeep and left Kagome there to jump in. She tugged the rope. It was tied safely on the bumper of the car. She took a steady breath and slowly began climbing down the rope. Sango started the car up and rubbed her hands in satisfaction while scanning the controls.
"Let's see. If I put this baby in reverse."
The car jerked back then forward, shaking the rope. Kagome yelped before she lost her grip and crashed on the ground. She slowly sat up and leaned over, holding the crown of her head.
"Ow. Sango you baka." She mumbled to herself.
The strong scent of blood and ashes made Kagome gag. She looked at the body. As she looked upon the hair she covered her mouth and went pale. She stared at two grayish cat ears on top of the person's head.
"Kagome! You fine down there?"
"Throw down a sheet!" She shrieked.
Sango quickly thew down a sheet. Kagome wanted to get out of there as quick as possible. She spread the sheet out as much as possible, then stared at the body. She did not want to check if it was alive or dead. Either way she would freak out, or she did not want to faint in this well. She used all her strength to roll it on the sheet. She tied the four corners tightly and wrapped the rope around it. She looked up at a skeptical Sango.
"What are those things on its head?"
"Never mind that! I would like to get out of here PLEASE!?"
Sango ran over and started the car. 'Nice and steady.' She kept saying to herself in her head. Suprisingly, she did pretty well and Kagome and the body slowly made it to the top. The body got stuck ant the end of the well, and Sango floored it, sending both Kagome and the body crashing to the ground.
"Thanks a lot. Remind me next time to not trust anything you say with the word 'car' in it."
"Your welcome, you ungrateful brat." Sango joked.
They both now looked at the body. 'Now what?' was all they could think of. Sango knelt down and put her head on its chest.
"It's alive. Man.what happened to you?"
"Let's get it inside."
It took ten minutes to get it in the living room. The two girls collapsed on the couch, staring at the bundle.
"Ugh. It weighs a ton,"Kagome moaned.
"Maybe we should.you know.clean it up and try to figure out what it is."
"I guess I'm not going to school, huh."
"DOUGH! You're not leaving me alone with that thing. Besides, I need some one to take the heat with me when my dad sees that bent bumper."
Kagome gave her a your-kidding look then shook her head. They had bigger things to worry about. Mom is already at work and who knows where Grandpa is. Her brat brother is at school too, so she and Sango had about five hours to straighten things out.
"Well, let's get our hands dirty." Said Sango as she took off her windbreaks and kept on her tanktop.
Kagome glanced over at Sango and went her knees next to the bundle. She untied the knots and Sang turned on a bright light. The two girls froze in awe. It had jet-black full straight eyelashes had eyebrows, but white mangled hair. It's skin was pale and mistreated, clammy, almost like it was decaying from underneath. It had cream long jagged claws. The rarest thing about it was it had two ears on top of its head like a cat.
"Wow", both girls chorused.
Thankfully there was a bathroom downstairs, so they dragged it to the bathtub. If anything, they have to clean the wounds first before treating it. Sang turned on the faucet. She looked at Kagome, who was staring at it as if she found a new species. Actually, she did.
"Well, what are you waiting for? Undress her. I don't even think those rags she's wearing should be classified as clothing." Sango spat anxiously.
"How do you know it's a girl?"
"Look at her. She's pretty. Are boys pretty?"Sango pointed out.
Kagome smirked smugly, "Well it depends on what boy your talking about."
"Straight ones. Anyway."
Sango began at the shirt, or what is left of it, so Kagome took the pants. Kagome's eyes widened and turned white. She was paralyzed for a split second, the she turned away, now red.
"IT'S NOT A GIRL!"
"Wha-.oh. Oh my."
"HOW CAN YOU LOOK AT THAT! ITS GROSS!"
"It's life. Your gona have to bear with it now anyway, we gotta help him. Just don't look."
Kagome tried to keep her eyes focused everywhere else."It's pretty hard to miss."
"OH KAGOME?!"
"WHAT? I'M JUST BIENG FRANK HERE!"
After the traumatizing bath and treating his wounds, he lied on the bed completely nude under the covers (Kagome decided to put a pillow over the evidence of him being a HIM). Sango and Kagome leaned on eachother for support. It was a miracle they got him upstairs. Sango patted Kagome on the back.
"Well done, Dr.Naieve."
"Drop it."
"You should have seen the look on your face! It was like you never seen a- "
"I SAID DROP IT!"
Sango laughed to herself and looked at their peaceful patient.
"I'm sorry Kagome, but I have to go now."
"You're leaving me here with him?"
"Calm down Kagome, breathe! I live right next door remember? I have a ton of chores that I was supposed to do this morning, and now it's."She looked at the digital clock. "One thirty-seven! Oh. I'll never be done before my dad gets home."
She turned to leave.
"Wait." Kagome called. Sango turned with a smile.
"How can you be so calm about this? Like if he is not here?
Sango opened her mouth to reply, only to find out there was none. She couldn't answer that herself. She should have been freaking out, not acting as if she knew him.
"Good question. You're taking this pretty good too you know. Well see ya! Call me when your Folks get home."
She began to walk down the stairs. Kagome waved goodbye and turned to look at him. 'He doesn't seem that bad.' She thought. There was one thing she forgot about, though. Sango reminded her when she was just about to leave by saying:
"Oh. Or when he wakes up. Whichever one comes first. I can't wait to see what he is like!"
(A/N giggle.hard to miss, Kagome says. MWHAHAHAHAHAAA! I am so sorry (not). I just had to put the gender discovery in this! An-T-ways, I am so sorry that it took so long to update, but I'll make it up to you. Kay! *grabs computer screen desperately* PLEEZ DON'T LEAVE MEEEEEEEE! @.^)
