Chapter Seven: Third's not a Charm
Author's note: Seven! Seven! Seven! Seven! Seven! Seven! (Seven!) Okay, that's from Friends. I just really really wanted to do that. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Oh well, I do, and I think I'm funny.
As they walked through the hallway together, Inuyasha glanced over at Kagome happily. He noticed that she didn't look so bright and cheerful. Could she be serious about this next teacher being mean and crazy? How bad could they possibly be?
The stepped into the classroom.
The air was ice cold.
Inuyasha shuddered involuntarily.
They walked to the teacher's desk.
She didn't look so frightening. She was actually kind of pretty. Her hair was kind of long and it was black. Her eyes were... wait! He KNEW this person!
"KIKYO!" He exclaimed.
The teacher turned and looked at him briefly.
She apathetically went back to what she was doing with a stack of papers. She was stacking a bunch of graded paper and was slapping them up and down on her desk with undue force.
A nasty smushy crunching noise was heard.
"Got it!" She smirked with satisfaction as she lifted the stack back up revealing a squished cockroach at the bottom.
"pass these out to the class, will ya?" She placed the pile in Kagome's hands.
"yes ma'am." Kagome said as she started to pass the papers out.
She grimaced and twitched as she handed them out.
"Kikyo!" Inuyasha hissed at his new teacher.
"Don't call me by my first name, boy, it's disrespectful." She told him flatly as she sharpened some pencils to an extremity.
"And pinning to me to a tree WAS respectful?" He asked rhetorically.
She let go of her pencil and looked baffled. The current pencil just sat in the machine, noisily humming but not getting any sharper.
"What's your name, boy?"
"Inuyasha! And what are you doing teaching at Kagome's school? Don't tell me you "lived" this long!"
"you're THAT Inuyasha? I should be asking the same thing of you... minus the teaching bit."
An awkward moment of silence passed between them.
#RRRRIIIIINNNNNNNGGGG#
More silence.
Kagome was getting near the bottom of the stack of papers. She had a sneaking suspicion that her paper was the one with the bug on it... and the teacher probably arranged it just that way.
She flipped through the remaining pages to view the bottom of the stack. "Kagome Higurashi, 73!" Why did she hate her so?!
Teacher's and students! It's t-t-time for this m-morning's announcements!" A preppy girl's voice was heard over the intercom.
"Just go SIT DOWN! I'll deal with you later!" Kikyo instructed Inuyasha.
Inuyasha flinched at the word 'sit' instinctively, but didn't crash into the ground. He eyed an empty chair and headed towards it.
Just as he was about to sit down, he turned to Kikyo. "This is going to suck, isn't it?"
"Fo' Shizzle." Kikyo said matter-of-factly.
"What?"
"Just sit!"
