Disclaimer: Please don't yell at me. This is my first Inu-Yasha story. I was inspired to write this as I watched Rori's softball team play. They lost, but they played good. Rori actually got to 1st base! HURRAY!
Back to the main subject. If I spell some names wrong, like Inu-Yasha's sword Tetsueiga, please tell me in the reviews. Just don't scream at me. Also, I have trouble spelling Shes.. Shessoma.. Shessomarou. Please, please correct me! Thankyou. Oh, yeah: I do not own Inu-Yasha or any of the other characters. If you do own this, than you don't know how much I envy you....

Chapter 1
Kagome sped down the dirt road towards the Bone Eaters Well. She glanced behind her from time to time, but always saw nothing. After checking one more, she slowed down to a nice easy pace. "I.. must have... lost him," Kagome said while catching her breath. "I call that skill."
"How 'bout luck?"
Kagome turned around to come face to face with her obnoxious dog friend. "Inu-Yasha! SIT!!" she yelled.
Inu-Yasha fell down to the ground as he watched Kagome race even faster than before. "Damn it all!" He got up and started to sprint after her.
Getting off her bike, she jumped into the well. "Home at last!" she yelled. But, as usual, Inu-Yasha always had to interfere. He grabbed ahold of her arm in mid-jump. "Where do you think you're going? We still have to collect the jewel shards!"
"I'm going home! Now let go of me!" Kagome started to struggle.
"No! And I don't care how many 'sits' you say!"
She was really starting to get mad now. Inu-Yasha knew that now was the time to be scared of her. Taking in a deep breath, Kagome let him have it. "SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Inu-Yasha felt his body go numb and fall to the ground, but he refused to let go. "I will not let this stupid necklace overpower me!" he said through clenched teeth.
Figuring out that saying the subduing spell wasn't going to work this time, she stopped wriggling and let Inu-Yasha bring her back on the ground. On set foot, he instantly clutched his back and fell to the ground. "Damn Kagome! That hurt!"
She just crossed her arms and looked the other way. "Your so annoying, Inu-Yasha! Do you know how much work I have to make up? Don't even let me think about the Mid-Terms. Haven't you ever gone to school before?"
A blank expression from him gave the answer. She sighed. "I give up!"
Kagome just sat there for a minute. Suddenly her eyes grew wide and Kagome shot up in the air screaming. "What? What is it?" asked Inu-Yasha. He looked around for Miroku, but the perv wasn't anywhere near there. His eyes than instantly went to where Kagome was sitting. There was a tiny red mushroom crying. "It's Shippou's mushrooms! They're in trouble!" yelled Kagome once she had calmed down. ((Please don't think that I am making her sound really girly. What would you do if you do if a crying mushroom would just pop up underneath your butt?))
"C'mon, Kagome, let's go."
"Right." She grabbed her bow and quivel of arrows, and hopped on Inu-Yasha's back. He winced and said, "You know, you could be a little bit easier on my back."
He jumped and started to follow the mushrooms. Inu-Yasha's ears were perfect, and so was his nose. He sniffed the air. Hmmm. No blood is in the air. I don't smell a demon either... "Kagome! Can you sense a sacred jewel shard?"
Kagome closed her eyes. "No, I don't sense one anywhere. What do you think it could be?"
"I don't know, but I'm sure it's not good."
Inu-Yasha came to the end of the distress calls, and he anime fell. "I spoke too soon."
What he saw was Sango sitting in a tree, drying her hair, and Shippou looking down a cliff. Miroku had his staff dug into the side of the cliff, which was the only thing preventing him from a nasty fall in the ocean. Inu-Yasha and Kagome walked up to the edge. Shippou sat down on Kagome's arm and chucked. "Miroku was being 'nice' to Sango again. She slapped him with her boomerang this time instead of her hand. He was sent flying off the cliff."
"Hump," was all that a blushing Sango could say. Kirara was right next to her in her cute, evee-looking form. Inu-Yasha smirked and looked at the monk. "I told you something like this would happen.
He looked up at the demon and retorted, "What you said had nothing to do with a cliff, some pointy rocks, and an ailing back!" He looked down, and then back at Inu-Yasha. "Although you did say it might be a life-or-death situation."
"You bet your ass it was!" yelled Sango.
Kagome shifted her weight, but actidentally sent rocks flying in the monk's face. He went to wipe the dust and sand away, but stopped when he noticed one thing: he had let go of the staff. So on he fell, and fell, and fell, and fell some more until you heard a crash, and a very loud, "Owwww."
Twenty minutes later, Miroku was sitting at the base of a tree, with his right arm bandaged. He would have felt Sango's rear end as she was fixing the fire, but he decided against it. Falling down a cliff once was enough. Kirara sat down beside him followed by Shippou. Inu-Yasha had taken Sango's spot on the tree to keep watch. It was when he felt his back hurt that he noticed one thing. "Where's Kagome?"
He got up and ran to the well. How could I have let her out of my sight? He reached the Bone Eaters Well and sniffed the air. Kagome's scent was fresh. "Damn, she already went through!"
Inu-Yasha was tired, and not in the mood to fight with Kagome, so he headed back to the camp. "I'll get her in the morning," he said after a good, long yawn.
Kagome walked into her room and dropped her yellow backpack. It was 12:06pm, and she planned on going to school tomorrow. "Ugh," was all Kagome said before passing out on her pillow.
The annoyingly loud pink alarm clock that was on her dresser started to ring. Without thinking, she grabbed it and through it out the window. She was so tired, that she didn't even hear the loud, "Hey!" come after it. But than footsteps were heard running up the staircase and the door swung open. "Kagome!" yelled Sota happily. He had a large red bump on his head. "You're home! Did you bring Inu-Yasha?"
She opened up one eye. "No, he's back in the Feudal Era. I came here to study for the exams. What sickness do I have now?"
Sota brought a finger up to his chin. "Hmmmm.... I know last week it was pneumonia.."
Kagome flinched.
".. than it was influenza..."
She groaned.
".. yesterday was rhumatism.."
Kagome brought the pillow over her head.
"... so today must be... um... hysteria."
She let out a soft, crazy-like chuckle. "I'm... gonna kill grandpa."
Sota ran out of the room yelling, "See you after school 'cause the bus is here!"
"What!" Kagome instantly got out of bed and ran outside. She watched as the bus rode away into the distance. A car honk got her attention as she saw her mom pull out the family car. "Need a lift?" she asked.
When Kagome reached school, she gave her mom a kiss goodbye and went to find her friends. They were all crouched in a circle. When one saw her, she let out a yell and said, "Hi Kagome!"
"Should you really be out here now? I mean, after having tuberculosis and all. Kagome sweatdropped and turned around. "Grandpa...."
"Hey Kagome, guess what?" one of her friends asked.
"What?" she hoped it was good news.
"You can be on the baseball team now. You did want to join, didn't you?"
"What?! I can't join baseball!"
"But... but your the best I've ever seen! You have to! It counts as one whole class grade if you win a scholarship! I think you could use that! Please, please?"
Kagome tried to argue, but they were giving her the same faces as she saw in Shippou. "Aww.. well, I can't... well... ok."
They all cheered. "We'll win the champoinship for sure with Kagome!"
They grabbed her hand. "Hurry! Practice is starting!"
Instead of her normal school clothing, she was dressed in a white and red stripped baseball shirt. She also had on black pants and black kleets. She felt wierd in this kind of outfit, but she did love to play baseball. Taking up her place at the mound, Kagome placed on her baseball hat. Looking at the catcher's hand movements, she nodded and threw her best curve ball. The batter swung, and missed. This continued for half an hour until her hand started to hurt. The coach told her to sit out as the newbie tried.
"Newbie?" Kagome's eyes turned to a tall, whitehaired teenage standing on the pitcher's mound. He was dressed in the same kind of clothing as her, but there was something else that was familiar. His baseball hat was pressed down hard on his head. When he brought up the ball t throw it, he smiled, showing two pointy fangs.
Kagome chocked on the hotdog she was eating and yelled, "INU-YASHA!?!?!?!"
------------------------
A/N: How did you like it? I hope it was good. As I said before, this is my first Inu-Yasha story, so go easy on me. At least I'm writing better than Rori! ((Just kidding, Rori!)) Please R&R, because I will be happy if you do...
Ja ne!
