Chapter 1: First Day

Kagome arose from her bed as the sun pierced through her window. Her eyes were still drowsy, but soon awoke as she looked at the alarm clock.

"Oh, I better hurry up or I will be late for school." Kagome quickly grabbed her uniform and got dressed.

"I hate this uniform dress code. The skirt looks so tacky." Kagome thought while running down the stairs.

She reached the kitchen table and her mother had already prepared breakfast.

"You better eat quickly or you're going to be late for school Kagome."

"I know, I know... Bacon?! Mom dont you think I am fat enough already?" Kagome said while running out the door with an apple.

The yellow bus arrived in front of her house just as Kagome was running out the door. She found an empty seat next to a pretty girl about the same age as herself.

"Hi, can I sit here?" Kagome asked the girl.

"Yeah sure, go right ahead." She smiled at Kagome and said, "Hi I'm Sango."

Kagome looked over to Sango and smiled sweetly. "Hi Sango, I'm Kagome. It's nice to meet you."

"Yeah, same here." Remarked Sango. "You new at this school? I haven't seen you around."

"Yup, I just moved here from Tokyo."

"Tokyo huh? This place must seem pretty boring compared to Tokyo. I always wanted to go there. It seems so beautiful on TV." Sango smiles in envy.

"Yeah, it's a great place, but I prefer Yokohama, it just seems more peaceful. By the way, what grade are you in?"

"I'll be a junior this year, how about you?"

Kagome smiled in relief. "Me too, maybe we will even be the same classes together."

"Yeah, that would be great."

The school bus finally arrived at the school and all the students quickly stepped off the bus. Since it was Kagome's first day at this school, she was obviously confused where to go.

"Hey Sango, umm could you sho...." Kagome was cut off as Sango interrupted.

"Don't worry about it, I'll show you around." Sango smiled and hooked onto Kagome's arm. "Lets get moving."
