High School Hell
Chapter Two: Homeroom
Kagome wasn't expecting the high school to be so huge. As bus load after bus load of teenagers spilt out onto the ramp, Kagome found herself lost in the crowd. If Rin hadn't been by her side, she knew she'd probably flee back home. Never had she seen so many kids she didn't know. Goths, preps, jocks, pot smokers, wanna be gangsters, skater boys, skater girls, the popular crowd with cell phones in hand, all seemed to be separated into their own groups. She knew Rin was part of the popular crowd, she was gorgeous. But where did she fit in?
"Higurashi!" someone yelled at her. She turned to see Sesshomaru advance upon her. She smiled happily, she'd made a new friend already. He jogged the rest of the way towards her, three big guys with her. "Meet Naraku, Hiten and his brother Mantan," introducing them all.
Naraku's smile towards her was creepy, almost as if she was familiar to him.
"Hi, I'm Kagome," she said with another blush touching her face.
"You're right she is cute," the boy Hiten said with a grin.
"You can hang with us." Naraku included. She nodded, and walked with them into the building. There she got a glimpse of the faculty of B.E High. A couple of kids were throwing a hacky sack between the two, and a bald, angry looking teacher was trying hard to stop them.
"What are your classes Higurashi?" the boy Mantan asked her. She showed him her schedule, Algebra, every kids worse nightmare, was shared with the boy Hiten, and Naraku was in her gym class. She smiled at the fact that now she would have someone to talk to.
"Kagome-chan?!" called to her from the other side of the hallway. Naraku groaned and glared at Sesshomaru.
"Why don't you just dump that annoying brat?" he snarled.
Sesshomaru didn't even listen, so focused was he on the younger girl. Rin ran over, grabbing Kagome's hand and removing her from their midst. She stopped long enough to kiss her boyfriend, and then rush down the hall.
"We share homeroom together," explained briefly. All Kagome knew is she was being dragged around a vast maze, up two flights of stairs, down three hallways that twisted and turned unexpectedly and then finally into a very crowded classroom. Kagome felt the knot in her stomach grow bigger, she didn't even sign up to demon sex education, but it happened to be a class a miko was supposed to take, and if she wanted to pass and eventually train her powers, she had to pass from B.E and then straight to miko boot camp.
She shyly looked around the room, and felt the auras of everyone inside. She was the only miko. She glanced at the few humans, one girl with her hair pulled up in a sleek ponytail, and a boy with robes like a monk also shared her block. With a sigh she plopped in the seat Rin left her at, and proceeded to watch everyone in the class.
The boy beside her, engrossed in a male bathing suit calendar, was quite handsome with pretty markings on his face and barrettes in his hair. His clothing was quite feminine, and Kagome couldn't help but stare. He felt her eyes upon him and he turned with a slow growl.
"Do you mind-" he cut himself short and gave her the once over. When he reached her eyes again he had a smile on his face, he closed the calendar. "I must have your skirt," he said simply. Kagome frowned and turned quickly from him. He pestered her a bit but soon gave up, muttering about hateful bitches. Kagome quickly searched for Rin, she needed an explanation quickly. Where the hell was she at?
"Hey, new girl, yo girl!" someone called. Kagome followed the voice to yet another group of kids, this time female. They beckoned her to come towards them, and she did. They were looking appreciably at her outfit, just like the strange boy had. She approached them with caution, and she sensed not only another miko, but a witch and four demons. The miko stepped forward, the one that had called her in the first place. "What's your name?" she demanded. Kagome didn't even bother to extend her hand, these girls would probably slap it away she supposed.
"I'm Kagome," she answered giving only her first name like others. The same girl nodded.
"I'm Kikyo," she pointed to the far right, at the witch "She's Tsubaki, the demon over there is Ayame, the goth looking one is Yura, red eyes is Kagura and her baby sister Kanna," Kagome looked at each, and Ayame had the only friendly face, and also the kinder aura. She nodded at each in acknowledgement. Tsubaki stepped forward.
"We're the, well lets say, most desirable group in this school. All of us have boyfriends, and probably always will. We enjoy toying with the hearts of the sweet innocents her. You can join us, seeing physically you qualify, or you can become an enemy and we can make your life hell," she said most boldly. Kagome's mouth dropped in shock, but she quickly regained her composure as Rin stalked towards her.
"Don't talk to those whores Kagome, they do nothing but hurt people with the exception of two," she growled. Kagome had never heard Rin say anything bad about anybody, but if she did it was correct. But she was a little late, Kagome knew, from their own mouths, they were twisted, evil people.
"I don't want to be your enemy," Kagome started quickly "but I already sorta belong to a crowd," she said with a fake cheerfulness.
"Oh yeah, who first year?" Kikyo snorted. Kagome was about to speak a lie when an arm snaked about her waist.
"Us," a cute, clear voice said. Kikyo's face fell as the demon hotties walked up behind the girl. They grabbed a hold of Rin and walked towards the far right far back of the huge class. The bell rang, and a stiff old woman hobbled in.
"Lady Keade, how's it kickin'?" one of the boys yelled. Keade grimaced at him and continued towards her desk.
"Young Hakkaku please refrain from calling out to me," she said with a strained smile. Hakkaku humphed and crossed his arms. "Take your seats class, the lesson will begin in fifteen minutes," and she left back out. Kagome was again shocked, where was she going? The boy that had grabbed her earlier spoke.
"Lady Keade is the coolest teacher. She believes that we're adults, and therefore responsible for our actions. She leaves often, and only asks we don't get her in trouble. Last year she didn't show up for a week and didn't tell anyone but us. That whole week we spent having fun. She didn't even make us do work when she returned," the boy said excitedly. Sesshomaru took this time to rise.
"Boys," he announced, all the guys in the group turned to him, it was easy to see who was leader. "We have a new member in our midst's, you remember Rin," a few mummers went up and some greeted her, "now we have Kagome, a first year, but still decent enough," the boys cheered and made her stand. She smiled and waved shyly at them. Another boy rushed in just as introductions were being made. He jumped right in her seat, and looked up at her curiously.
"Who's this?" he asked. Sesshomaru glared at the intruder.
"If you'd come on time, like everybody else, than you'd know. Inuyasha this is a new member, Kagome."
"Hey."
"You mind?" she asked a bit snappy. He looked up at her, wondering what she meant.
"What!"
"YOU sat right in MY seat."
He smirked at her, "Move your feet, lose your seat" Kagome focused her energy on the chair he sat in, and suddenly he was on the ground, the entire desk gone from the room. He looked up bewildered, as well as everyone else.
"Miss Kagome, please return the desk and refrain from using any more power when in the building. As for the rest of you, you know the drill, weapons in the closet," groans went up as demon after demon, as well as human trudged to a slightly glowing door. One by one they took swords, deadly beasts, staffs, knives, even things that reminded one of guns, and stored them in the closet.
Kagome however focused on the spot the desk was just as, and let it land on top of the strange boy. She looked around, there were no more seats. The boys also noticed this, and started to give them up, but one of them, one she hadn't been introduced to, stood and raised his hands for attention. He locked eyes with Kagome as he boldly addressed the group
"Let it be known I lay claim on this on," and he sat back down, grabbing Kagome and sitting her on his lap. Kagome sat rigid as she waited for the shock to fade away. Never had she been in a male's lap that wasn't a family member or three times her age. And never had she heard such bold people in her life, ordering and forcing her to do things against her will.
"That is enough of that Miss Kagome and Young wolf prince. Please go back to your OWN seats, and Inuyasha, you know the drill, to the front, you were late and therefore don't receive a seat," Inuyasha grumbled as he got up from the seat and stood against the wall at the front of class. Kouga reluctantly let go of Kagome and she in turn went to her seat and sank gratefully into it. She was a little too comfortable in the boy's lap.
"Now if that's all, let's begin. I need the routine paper work from each of you, as well as for you to introduce yourself to those you don't know. I don't know why I keep getting you boys, but I'll see an end to it, I can't teach ALL of your classes," and after setting a stack of papers and pencils in the middle of her desk she walked out again. Everybody got up and picked up a little booklet as well as a pencil from the desk and started scribbling inside. Kagome did also, aware that the eyes of the 'desirables' boring into her side. She groaned inwardly, she'd managed to make enemies, and it was just homeroom.
