Why Me?

Chapter 3: A New Collection
The next morning, Kagome got up from bed with a horrible backache. She tired to stretch a bit, but it hurt too much. So, she decided to take a warm shower to help relieve her muscles. Perhaps it would soothe her backache a bit. Anyhow, she took the shower and was disappointed to find a lot more bruises on her back than she expected. The warm shower didn't really help that much either. "Oh, well" she thought, "I'll just have to deal with it but it totally sucks." With that thought, Kagome went down to the breakfast table, quietly ate her breakfast without looking at her mom, and left for school. Kagome walked to school slowly. When she got there, she opened her locker and looked at the schedule taped there since the beginning of the school year. "NO!" She thought as she looked at her schedule. "I have P.E. first. This is the worst day of my life. I'd rather have yesterday." With a sigh/ moan, she headed toward the Girls' Locker Room. She changed into her P.E. attire in a bathroom stall so that no one would see her bruises. After she was done, she walked out into the gym. There was at least half the grade there. Unfortunately for her, she got the half with most of the snobby people in it. Snobby includes: Kikyo, Inu-Yasha, Miroku, Yura, Hojo, Ayame, and other popular people. It was fitness week. That means they had to run as many laps as they could in 10 minutes. Then they had to run extra 8 laps. After that, they had to do 15 crunches, 10 push-ups, 20 skis, 35 lunges, and a 5-minute wall sit. This did not help Kagome's bruised back at all, since she had to do many different stretches and etc. Because of this, for the rest of the day, she was in pain. As soon as school was out, Kagome rushed home so that her mother wouldn't punish her for getting home late and so she could take a hot bath that might help her back. When she came home, her mother wasn't there yet. She filled the bathtub with hot water and sunk into the heavenly bliss. About an hour later, she came out and did her homework. That night, Kagome and her family ate their dinner in silence. After dinner, Kagome went to the medicine cabinet in the bathroom to see if she had Moltrin or anything that could help relieve her pain. To her luck, she found the bottle of medicine she was looking for. She took one tablet, and then went back into her room to do the rest of her homework. Soon, she climbed into her bed, tired from the day and fell into a fitful sleep. The next morning dawned bright and early. She got up early and decided to pay the pharmacy, which was only a couple blocks down the road, a visit. As she was walking, she bumped into someone by accident. She looked up and realized that it was Inu-Yasha and his group of cronies. "God? Why do you hate me?" she thought to herself. Inu-Yasha looked down, saw Kagome and smirked. "Hello Kagome. Did you sleep well?" Inu-Yasha said with fake worry and a hint of sarcasm in his voice. Kagome just sighed and decided to push pass him and be on her way, but Inu-Yasha had something else in mind. Wherever she went toward, he would step in front of her, blocking her way. The rest of his friends laughed at her trying to get away. Finally, Kagome gave up and just stood there staring at Inu-Yasha and waited for him to do something. When Inu-Yasha realized that Kagome wasn't trying to get pass him anymore, he frowned. This girl had a lot more fire and courage than he gave her credit for. He had half expected her to try a couple more times and then break down crying. But no, she didn't do that. She just stood there staring at him as if telling him to move instead of forcing him to. Reluctantly said to the guys, "All right, we should get on our way to school now. Otherwise we'll be late and the teachers will give us detention." All of the guys followed him and left. Kagome waited for a while longer before she went on her way to school. "Well, so much for going to the pharmacy. *sigh* maybe I'll just try to go quickly after school." To her misfortune that hay, she had P.E. again. This time it was martial arts. She got into her P.E. clothes and went into the gym. They were broken up into groups of students. In her group, there were Inu-Yasha, Miroku, Hojo, Hiten, Yura, Kagura,and Sango. They were to watch each other fight, then give them a score. They were also to fight with the same sex. First, Miroku and Hojo were up. They bowed to each other and began. They circled each other, waiting looking for the weak spot. Miroku spotted it first and kicked Hojo in the ribs. Hojo tried to block but was too slow. As he was trying to get back up, he was punched in the face. This time, he fell back and didn't move. "Miroku is the winner!" Inu-Yasha announced. Miroku was given his score. Then he walked of the matt and gave Inu-Yasha a high-five. "Who would like to go next?" Miroku asked. " I will." A female voice replied. Everyone looked toward the source of the voice and saw Yura. "All right , Yura, who would you like to challenge?" Inu-Yasha asked. Yura looked at the girls. Then she said, "I choose Kagome." As Kagome heard her name come out of Yura's mouth, she groaned. She had really hoped that she wouldn't have to go today since her back still hurt. But, she silently got up and walked onto the matt where Yura stood waiting. They bowed to each other and began. Their proceedings were the same as Miroku and Hojo's, except Yura struck first. She punched Kagome in the stomach and Kagome hissed in pain, but still, she got up. Yura attempted to punch her again but Kagome caught her fist. Then the next thing she knew, she was on her back staring at he ceiling. Yura quickly got up and faced Kagome again. This time, Yura ran toward Kagome, jumped into the air and did a flip right over her. She then proceeded to elbow her back. It hit one of the bigger bruises that were there and Kagome yelped in pain. Inu-Yasha, who was sitting at the sidelines, quirked an eyebrow when he heard her yelp. Surely, a small elbow like that on your back shouldn't hurt that much. He just brushed it off as her being really weak and not being able to handle any pain. As the fight continued, Kagome became more on the receiving side than the giving side. Just as she was about to give up, she heard Yura say, "Had enough yet whore? This is just to show you of your place in this society. You might as well just give up now." Those words sparked an unknown fire in Kagome and suddenly, she felt recharged. She narrowed her eyes at Yura, waiting to spot her weakness. There. Yura had moved her arms so that part of her torso was uncovered and unprotected. Kagome took the chance and punch her. HARD. Yura flew across the matt to the other side and lay there, unconscious. Everyone stared at her after her show of power. They wouldn't believe how strong she was. Suddenly, she collapsed to the floor.
