(Flashback)
------
"Okay Sango, just calm down" Kagome tried to silent the frantic girl.
"But..."
"Just what's the problem... wait, don't tell there, just get over here, and we talk it through!"
"Okay..." Sango hung up and picked her stuff together before leaving, awfully clearly noticing staring looks.
'I'm screwed...' She thought and left.
------
Kagome laid her cellphone on her table before sitting down on the bed.
'What can be so... awful?' She thought while biting her under lip. She laid down onto her back while wondering, but since she had no experience in... such stuff... she couldn't find one. She sighed frustrated and turned onto her stomach. She flipped a newspaper open and flipped to the Ad's.
'Hm... Jii-chan is advertising out some replica of some ancient jewel... oh right, the one our family had a while ago...'
Nothing recognable?
She sighed and ignored the voice, she closed the paper and started thinking of Sango's 'problem' as she remembered what the spoken person had said the day before...
(Sango cleared her throath.
"Kagome, time to get your face beatiful... More than it already is will say"
"I'm not more pretty than any of you" She said with a small pink tint of a blush.
"Ever looked in a mirror? With that outfit you'll be glad if you are a virgin at the end of the night" Sango chuckled. Kagome gaped.
"How dare you!" She growled.)
'Heh, she's the one speaking' she thought with a chuckle.
"What's so funny!?" Sango asked from the door.
"Inuyasha" She answered a little to quickly. "He smirked while Sesshy pleaded us not to tell Kayashi..."
"And so what?" The spoken Hanyo asked from behind Sango. Then he turned to her. "You've seen Miroku? He doesn't answer the phone" Kagome glared at him as Sango bit her under lip, the hanyo arched an eyebrow in confusion.
"No" Sango said, trying to hold steady. "I haven't seen him since yesterday evening" Inuyasha shrugged his shoulders and left. Kagome got up and closed the door behing her friend and then locking. Sango held up a paper bag while fakingly smiling.
"I brought something to eat" Kagome sighed and took the bag. They both sat down on the bed while Kagome packed some chocolate up and then two cups of double espresso, seeming to come from the school-cafeteria. SHe took a sip before asking.
"So, spill" Sango looked down.
"Well... after you left... We kinda helped each other out of the pond and all..." She choked on her words and looked up. "I just jump over it, okay?" Kagome nodded.
"So what's the problem?" She asked.
"Well... we didn't use protection of any kind... we were still pretty drunk..."
"So you're afraid you're being pregnant?" Kagome asked while taking a bite of a chocolate bar. "Sango, there are day-after pills you know..."
"That's not it!" Sango almost yelled, but quickly took it carefully as she was about to spill her espresso out. "It's... the other way around..."
"You mean" Kagome said slowly. "That You're afraid that you are pregnant, but..."
"If I am..." Sango said. "I don't think I want to... you know..."
"End the pregnancy" Kagome finished while drinking her coffee up. Her friend nodded. Kagome scratched her neck and thought.
"Sango, you're sixteen..."
"Seventeen in two weeks"
"Okay, seventeen, are still going in school and will so for at least two years more..." Kagome sighed. "So how?"
"I'm sure there will be a way... In that case..." Sango mumbled.
"But why?"
"Because..." Sango sighed. "Yesterday... he said... something... I never thought I would hear, that's why"
"What did he say...?"
"He said..."
(Miroku kissed her once more as he drew her up from the pond. She giggled a little as he pulled back.
"Sango" He said. "Do you know something?"
"No, what?" She asked.
"I know I grope other girls and even ask them to bear my child and so..."
"Hai?"
"But... I never..." He cleared his throath. "Said I loved anyone"
"Not me either, acctually" She mumbled.
"Sango, do you love me?" He asked
"Eh?"
"Because, Sango Taijya, I love you, and that's the one thing I only will say to you")
"He didn't!" Kagome squealed.
"He so did" Sango said. "And, well.. I believed him"
"Just hope he ment it, or make that remember"
"Of course!" Sango said, and Kagome nodded.
"Don't get Touchy, I know that something like that is true" She took the empty papers, cups and bag and tossed it into the trashcan.
"So, we're finished here, you up to some girl-afternoon?"
"Like what?"
"Like..."
"WATCHING ANIME!" They squealed. Two seconds later Kayashi joined.
"I'm so in!"
"Hey, you weren't listening huh?" Kagome asked.
"No, I can hear you through the wall when you squeal like that" They laughed. "Do you know why Fluffy is acting so... off today?"
And that couldn't get a good answer...
"Let's watch!" Sango said.
That second Kagome's cellphone started beeping.
"Higurashi Kagome" She said. She then held the phone from her ear. Her boyfriend was screaming while strangling Miroku, it sounded like.
"THE DAMN IDIOT HAS BLABBERED!" He yelled.
"Then how many knows?" She asks panicely while glancing at Kayashi, who looked like a living question, and Sango, who looked shocked and somewhat angry.
"The so called 'Sesshy-secret' is out over the whole school!" He yelled on. "THE-WHOLE-DAMN-SCHOOL-KNOWS!!!"
"Except some..." She whispered.
"There's no way in hell we can keep it secret now..." Inuyasha said more silent.
"Meet me at the Cafeteria" She said. "And bring the Baka..." She hung up.
"Kayashi, can you stay here, just quickly, Sango, come on!" They rushed out. Kayashi sighed.
"It's about me alright" She muttered.
------
They all gave Miroku what he deserved, but not much could be done but hoping. The monday was approaching, and since the whole school knew... HE would probably use it...
Sesshomaru and the rest went out early on monday morning and went into the schoolbuilding. They saw Inu-papa with a bunch of papers.
"Father" Sesshomaru said. Inu-papa turned.
"Huh, Sesshomaru?" He smiled. "I was just about to put the picture up"
"No you will not" Inuyasha answered. "Kayashi doesn't remember, and you cannot dare to make it so much worse, so don't"
"Please?" kagome asked. The principal sighed.
"Okay then..." He didn't spound like he ment it so...
"Kitsune-bi!" Shippou shouted and burned the papers.
"Arigatô Shippou" Sesshomaru said. Inu-papa looked as thought he could cry out loud. The situation was saved, for now.
------
Kayashi walked through the corridors on her way to math when she noticed it. People where staring at her, after her, and whispering. She tried to read their minds, but since she couldn't specify their aura's since they where many, she only heard a total fuss of thoughts. She sighed and tried to Ignore it. She passed members of the Sesshy-fanclub and overheard a part...
"Kayashi Mizuno... She and our Sesshomaru..." they leader stopped and glared at her, it was Yuki, again. Kayashi snorted and continued on. But it still bothered her, what was wrong here? She shrugged of the feeling saying that it was something she should remember.
But when she entered math as the second person after a young girl she knew, Rin, who never lied, she decided to ask her.
"Rin" She said. The girl smiled.
"Hai?"
"What is everyone talking about?"
"Oh!" Rin smiled. "Don't you know your own place?"
"Huh?"
"Everyone knows about your kiss with Sesshy..." She silenced, Kayashi had dropped her books and ran out of the room.
'NO WAY!!!' She yelled in her mind over and over again as she rushed through the corridors with tears in her eyes.
Since that day she swore to her dead parents she wouldn't make a man distract her into that kind of hell again. And still...
'I know I probably... Like him... but all men are betrayers! No matter what I feel, I shouldn't...!' She stopped in the middle of a corridor and looked around, everyone was looking at her, with now the same thoughts.
.:She...:. And so she ran again. She held her hands in front of her face and ran blindly throught the corridors, avoiding walls by reading random thoughts, and the suddenly not being able to stop herself, running into the one person she didn't want to meet.
------
Sesshomaru saw her coming, but couldn't do much until she hit him. He looked down on her as she lifted her head, and he flinched as he saw her tears.
'She knows...' He seconds later knew she forgot their agreement, because she burst out in more tears and pushed him aside before running away again. He didn't move from the spot, just watched her run, students avoiding her, and then rounding a corner.
And he felt like the world's biggest idiot.
------
She didn't care if she hit students, she remained running until she caught a glimpse of a hiding place. Right before the last corner another figure came around it. Kayashi stumbled into Kagome and then just ran on, catching a glimpse of Kagomes worried look. She didn't look back but heard Kagome's angry thoughts.
.:I TOLD him to tell her! Damn bastard!:. and then. .:KAYASHI, wait!:. She looked behind her and saw the younger girl running after her as fast as she could. She turned her head back and then ran to the left into a new corridor. As Kagome did the same, Kayashi was not to be seen. She sighed.
"Aww... I'll kill those bastards, keeping such a thing from her..." Then she shut. "And me too... I'm an idiot..." She turned and left. Kayashi looked around the corner of the bookshelf just as Kagome rounded the corner. She had been able to hide her aura from the Miko... but how!?
The answer came soon
She heard voices. And as the curious person she was, she just hid inside an empty classroom and leaned against the closed door to hear the ones outside.
"Kagura..." A dark voice said.
"You cannot use me like that! I do. NOT. HARM. INNOCENT. PEOPLE!" A yelling girl's voice said. A barrier must have been set up, because Kayashi couldn't hear any thoughts.
"Oh, You will Kagura..." The voice chuckled. Kagura decided to do a snarling jokish comment.
"And why didn't you do it on Halloween? That was your plan right, tell me, what went wrong?"
"No time for jokes!"
"But still, how should I be able to do something YOU cannot?"
"Okay, fine wench. I fell into a well in the forest, and it was not easy to get out, and when I did, my chances to continue on the plan with the Miko were zero. All I want is for you to..."
"One more question first" Kagura broke.
"Sure... Kagura"
"Why did you use Kouga to tell the Miko, and Why did you have to use Kanna to get the soul of the Mizuno girl's dog?" Kayashi held a gasp, not a good time to reveal herself now...
"Kouga was a part of the game all the time..."
"And where is he now, he has been lost since... he told the Miko..."
"He is far away from here"
"Not DEAD I hope? I don't cooperate with murderers"
"My wish is to kill the Mizuno girl and get IT, but the wolf is not dead, yet" Another chuckle. "He will return to school soon, after being found by the police and being in jail for a month or so, he has been... fighting a lot lately... heh"
"Okay, but Kanna? How did she agree..."
"She didn't, I forced her"
"So you just play with people!? Kouga was a part of a game, Kanna, and that Kikyo too!?"
"Right, Kikyo has still some work left, and Kanna as well... I might even use more people..."
"Like who?"
"Like You"
"I won't let you!" The dark voice chuckled.
"You don't have much choice Kagura..." All Kayashi felt was a rising power aura and then that Kagura let out a half strangled gasp.
"B-...Bastard" She breathed.
"So, you're going to..." The silhuette of the dark voice turned to the frosted glass of the door, and even if she didn't see any, eyes were staring back into her's.
"Mizuno..." He growled. Kayashi didn't hesitate. She turned and ran towards the window. She opened it just as she heard someone trying to open the door she in her luck had locked. She looked out through the opened window. Fifth floor! The door behind her cracked.
"Kagura!"
"Hai..." Kayashi chose, sure death or a might survival...
"Wind blades Dance!" The door got blowed in and the followed wind energy followed her out the window, the glass exploded and the small sharp crystals hit her face and bare arms. She turned in the air to cast a glance on them but saw only the girl Kagura, who looked symphatically at her.
"Kagura..." Came the dark voice from nowhere. Kayashi caught Kaguras eyes and caught one thought. Sorry.
"Wind blades dance!" Kayashi got hit in mid-air, square in the chest.
Time stopped.
She let out a small. "Oh..." Before consciouness left her and she fell.
------
"INUYASHA!" Kagome yelled angrily.
"What have I done?" He asked scared as she stomped towards him.
"Where is your brother!" She asked.
"On his way to math..." Next second he was dragged behind his girlfriend who stomped away towards math lesson.
A few minutes later...
"SESSHOMARU!!!" The Youkai turned, still standing where Kayashi left him.
"Hai?" He asked with sad eyes, and Kagome knew that second that he already knew.
"Let's go to the math lesson then..." She sighed. But on the way...
Students rushed past them.
"What's going on!?" Kagome asked, they were on the first floor by now.
"A classroom at fifth floor seems to have exploded or something!" A boy yelled. "And some blonde girl seemed to be causing it... or something" And he was gone.
One. Two...
"KAYASHI!" They all three yelled and ran out on the schoolyard. They glanced up as they all felt a Youkai power rise.
That second they witnessed the power of wind.
They saw Kayashi getting hit by the wind blades and falling to the ground. But Only Inuyasha noticed who did it.
"Sesshomaru, we need to..." Kagome didn't get further, Sesshomaru wasn't there anymore. He had rushed straight through a group of students, glancing up, and then jumping. Kagome clenched her fists as time seemed to stop for a second. Inuyasha stared at the window, and saw another figure join Kagura... Black hair... and that ominous aura...
Sesshomaru caught Kayashi on her way down, but hadn't much time to concentrate on his own landing. He lost his breath as his back hit the ground. Hard. Then he sat up and looked down at the unconscious girl. She had small scratches over her cheeks and arms, and an awful wound sqaure over her chest... He swallowed hard and looked up, suddenly embarrased. He held Kayashi against his chest as he stood up. Students gathered.
"Get away! Damn you! Let me through for Kami's fucking sake!" He yelled. Silence. Sesshomaru never swore like that in public... He took the opportunity and leapt of, landing next to Kagome and Inuyasha.
"Is she okay?" Kagome asked.
"If a hit with a wind blade over her chest is okay, then she is" He said with a hint of sarcasm.
"Oh..." Kagome said but Inuyasha smirked.
"Heh, so that is why your scent got so embarrased..." He said. "Not to mention your look"
Sesshomaru snarled at him, and Kagome finsihed it, Inuyasha stretched a point.
"Osuwari!" The Hanyo hit the ground hard and she turned to Sesshomaru. "We better take her to Kaede, and then we need to find out who did it to her..."
"That won't be hard..." Inuyasha grumbled from the ground and tried to pull himself up. "Kagura"
"Kagura, but why should she?" Sesshomaru asked.
"She wasn't alone, but who the hell was it..." Inuyasha looked frustrated. "I didn't notice any scent from this distance..."
"But either way she needs help" Kagome exclaimed. They nodded and went on to Kaedes office.
------
"Sesshomaru, stop stomping around like that!" Kagome said with a tired voice. They were outside Kaede's office, still. The sky outside was turning a little bit red as the evening had come. "We're all worried, but it won't get better because you are stomping around, you know" The Youkai sighed and slumped down in a chair.
"I know... but..." He sighed again. "The reason she was alone up there was because I didnt tell her..."
"Stop blaming yourself" Inuyasha said. "Why would it have been different? She could have been attacked by those two anytime she was alone, you could for fuck's sake not predict it!"
"He's right" Sango said, who joined them a couple of minutes after they had come there. "No one foresaw it, and I guess they just grabbed the chance when she was alone..." The door opened and a pale Kagura stepped out followed by Kaede, who looked at the teenagers and shook her head. Kagura sobbed a little and got sent away.
"Wha-" Sesshomaru got cut off.
"The Lass doesn't remember a thing" Kaede said, sighing. "Probably a memory-erasing spell, maybe just a minor one, that will lose after a while... but..."
"So we can't blame Kagura" Kagome said. The others sighed. Miroku entered the room with a couple of cups with coffee.
"Here you go" He said and gave them all one cup. "Kaede-sensei, how is Kayashi?"
"She is okay, even though she hasn't regained consciouness yet, a full hit of a wind blade is not too pleasable, I can tell ye"
"May I see her?" Sesshomaru asked, and Kagome saw him touch Tenseiga's scabbard.
"Hai, ye are allowed, only one a time though" Sesshomaru nodded and entered the office before closing the door. At the far end of the room she lay. Her upper torso was bandaged and she had a wet towel on her forehead, probably fever from the wounds. He walked up to her and drew Tenseiga.
'It will at least let her be without scars...' he thought.
Yeah, scars would be a waste on such a nice body
He blinked. Oh, how he hated voices like that!
Sure, you do hate me, but I am you, and you can't disagree, right?
'Shut up!' (A/N: Oh, how I totally LOVE to give the characters those small voices inside their heads XP)
It was not time to argue with himself, he had to concentrate on this. He held the blade in front of him, pointing at the unconscious Hanyo on the couch.
'Tenseiga, I count on you to do this...' He thought and concentrated as the sword pulsated. He felt the aura of the sword rise and a bluish light surrounded him and Kayashi as the sword began glowing in a darker blue. He had healed wounds on himself and Inuyasha before, but this had never happened before... Neither... had...
Do you wish to save her?
He was startled, but answered.
'Hai'
How much?
He hesitatet.
'With all my heart'
Then what would you give to save her?
'...Anything'
Silence followed, and he somewhat wondered what would come next.
The sword pulsated again.
Honesty is following your words, and also...
He held his breath
The feeling you hold for this girl...
'I'm not in love with her or something!' He defended himself. But it was like the sound was not listening.
Is the one you fear the most to have, to show and to confess...
'What the... just save her for god's sake damnit!'
This healing needs more than just Tenseiga
'W-what do you mean?'
It needs confession, this girl holds a sorrow thought concerning you about something she doesn't remember...
'Friday evening!'
And the only way to let you heal her is probably to make the memory flow back
'How?'
You should know...
He gulped and opened his eyes. The world was invisible, just the pulsating blue aura around them.
And he knew.
He lowered the Tenseiga to his side and took two steps forwards so he stood next to the couch. He sunk to his knees. Even if he could only see the aura, he looked around.
'This is it... just do it coward!' He thought but gulped again. Sesshomaru, he. was. scared. Probably because he didn't want the voice to have right about him... or something like that... but even so...
He looked at the Hanyo girl in front of him.
He did want to save her... Without leaving scars he was the cause of...
Decision taken, he took a deep breath...
And stopped in his tracks as the friday came back to him as well, the whole...
(He pulled her into the small forest of trees. Then he stopped, as he turned to her. The moon caught her hair, her eyes and her face, and he gulped. She got a sad tingle in her eyes and whispered, surprisingly sober sounding.
"We're not just faking are we?" She asked, and as he didn't answer. "Because... for once... since... then..." She took a breath. "I love someone... you" He took a gasp for a breath as th words slipped out from her. Knowingly or not, she said it... He smiled.
"No, we're not faking" He said. "Because..." He took a step closer. "I think I love you too")
'I did say that... because she probably wouldn't remember it... but...'
It is true... right?
He nodded.
'Hai...' He smiled at the girl before bending down.
His lips touched hers, and while he did so, the aura dissolved into the Hanyo girl, and he felt her kiss him back.
What is true, Tai Sesshomaru?
'That I...'
Her eyes flustered open and as their eyes met, both held the same feeling.
'...I love Kayashi'
.:Chapter 9 End:.
Aww... am I not a tiniest bit sweet right here? Ne?
Well, this was this chapter, (a little shorter than usual, but...) next is going to be about some birthdays. Two in fact. And I know you can guess...
Maybe not, and then you'll have to wait until then :P
Well, review dear friends, I will wait for replies before writing next Chappie
Questions... are...
WHO is the mysterious person wanting to destroy it for everyone, and What is the IT thing?
Now both of them know it, but will Kayashi and Sesshomaru confess?
Same for the others?
You'll have to wait for the conclusion in later chapters of...
School of Many Hearts!
so, until next time
Ja Ne!
