Hey, it's me, Sesshomaru's Goddess. This Sesshomaru's Goddess decided to put one of her stor-attempts at a story up. (Ashley, stop. I can hear you from here "FINALLY!". Lol.) By the way, I just thought I would warn you, I like fragments. Okay, here it goes…
Slowly. It was moving slowly to annoy her, and the worst part was…it was working. The clock she currently had her gaze glued to was the only thing she could think of as she watched the small, red second hand tick away. And yet, it had barely moved under her watchful gaze.
'One more minute and I'm outta here!' she thought anxiously.
'Thirty seconds!' she didn't dare blink.
'Five…' she could hear her teacher in the back of her mind droning on, not aware of the fact that everyone had their attention on the clock, 'four…three…two…what the?!' the clock stopped one second from 3:30 (she's still in Junior High. Sry) and whispers spread across the room like wild fire. It felt like minutes before a student raised their hand.
"Yes?" the teacher asked when he turned away from the board and saw the fiercely waved appendage.
"It's time to leave." Everyone shook their heads in agreement, some more enthusiastic then others (*cough*Kagome*cough*) but all enthusiastically.
The teacher glanced at the clock then turned back to the student, "It's not 3:30 yet."
"Your clock died. We're suppose to be out of here!" the student answered, not bothering to keep the anxiousness out of his voice. The students stated their agreement this time with little "Yeah!"s and "We have things to do!" and so on as the rustling in the halls died down.
"I didn't hear the bell ring yet" the teacher replied, not sparing the clock above the door another glance.
"That's 'cause we don't have a bell, sir," a girl answered.
"Nonsense, of course we have a bell. Anyways, I don't hear anybody in the halls" with that he turned around and began writing on the board again. Everyone stared at his back in disbelief.
'No…noooooooooo-' Kagome thought. She, not only, was stuck in school for who knows how long after it ended, she was also stuck in a class she hated, despised…Math.
"Okay…Miss Higarashi (Is it Higarashi or Higurashi? Just curious…)."
Kagome stopped beating her head against the desk she currently sat at to glance around, "Eh…?" was her oh so smart reply.
"I said, a rectangular room is 12 feet wide and 14 feet long. How long is the diagonal line segment that connects two opposite ceiling corners of the room? (This is Algebra by the way.)"
"Um…?" horror took over her features as he held out the chalk, a silent order to move up to the board.
"Solve," he simply said, trying to hand her the chalk, but after the first twenty times gave up. Taking her hand and placing the chalk in it, he stood back to watch.
"Uh…what was the problem again?" she grinned sheepishly, scratching the back of her head.
He scowled, "A rectangular room is 12 feet wide and 14 feet long. How long is the diagonal line segment that connects two opposite ceiling corners of the room?" At the look of confusion he took the chalk from her and told her to sit down.
"The answer is 18.4 feet. Watch carefully, Higarashi, you need to learn this for the High school entrance exams. The room is twelve feet in width and fourteen in length" he began drawing on the board while asking Kagome if she followed so far.
"Ahhh-" Kagome screamed as she shot up right in her bed. She grasped her shirt above her heart in a closed fist, trying to regain her breath.
"That was the scariest nightmare I've ever had!" she panted.
"Kagome! Get up or you'll be late for your first day at your new school!" her mother hollered up the stairs.
"Mom, I was gonna go back and check up on Inuyasha today!" she called back as she made her way to the landing to look down at her mother. Her mother had probably been doing dishes because she was drying her hands on her apron.
"Not today, you aren't. You need to get used to your new school. They called while you were gone and said something important would happen this week. I don't want a repeat of what happened in the last school to happen at this one. They already asked me if Souta would be this sick when he got there." At Kagome's nod, she turned and walked back into the kitchen. Kagome walked back to her room and picked out a pair of clothes until she got her new uniform. She grabbed the first pair of jeans, which happened to be her favorite pair of baggy, black JNCOs and a white tank top. She also grabbed a red, plaid, over shirt she got from the guy's section.
She took her clothes into her bathroom and had a quick shower. Several minutes later, she came out of the bathroom, steam following her, her hair wrapped up in a tight towel, and her pajamas were tossed into a hamper. She blow-dried her hair so that when she put it in a braid and wanted to take it out later it wouldn't be really wavy. She liked her hair's natural curls and waves. She brushed her hair and put it in a braid (how many of ya'll saw that coming? Come on, be truthful. Lol) letting her bangs frame her face.
"Kagome-" she rushed out of her room, her book bag slung over her shoulder and a necklace in her hand.
"Where is this Sarasaki high?"
"It's near the old market."
"Okay. Bye mo-" she was cut off when her mother stuffed a piece of toast in her mouth, opened the door, and pushed her out, calling good bye. Then she closed the door.
The abrupt change in scenery caused her to just stand there, gapping with her toast sticking out at an odd angle. She finally noticed the piece of paper her mother had also handed her. It was a schedule.
She set her book bag down, folded the schedule, and stuffed it into her pocket. Then she took the necklace put it on next to her 1/3rd of the Shikon no Tama. It was another silver chain with a black dragon holding a red rose and two lights, blue and orange, came from either side behind it. It had a small purple jewel in its mouth. It wasn't very big, though.
A close friend had given it to her when they met for the first time…well, with out getting into a battle, that is.
Sesshomaru had told her a lot that night of the new moon, Inuyasha's night of humanity. He helped her unlock her power but because he helped her, her power fed off of his youkai and it changed her own power into that of demon and miko. While she changed into her new form: Sesshomaru told her of the necklace and her power. He also offered to train her which she agreed.
She had found him in this time soon after. He had a great amount of sadness in his bright amber eyes, but refused to tell her what had happened in fear of changing the past. She met with him frequently, now.
She picked up her book bag and took her toast out of her mouth, making sure to take a big chunk out of it. She headed of to her new school, finishing off her toast. As she was nearing her destination she felt long arms wrap around her waist and a silky voice floated into her ears. Warm breath on her neck made her shiver at the tingling sensation.
"Hey babe." She knew that voice. She also knew the flirt it belonged to, "Sesshomaru." He nuzzled her neck.
"I swear! You act more and more like Miroku everyday!" she giggled when he turned her around and saw a frown crossing his features.
"Where are you heading, anyways?" he changed the subject.
"I got transferred to a new school" she answered and continued walking with him trailing behind.
"So, how are things in the past?" he asked, shoving his hands into the pockets of his baggy blue jeans.
"Fine. We ran into Naraku the other day so while Inuyasha is recovering, I get to go to school!" the last part was filled with mock enthusiasm. She didn't get a reply and they continued walking, surpassing two boys who were arguing.
*****************Fighting Kids*******************
"Yeah, well…you're stu- Whoa! Who's she?" Kuwabara asked rather loudly.
"Dunno…" was Yusuke's reply as they stared at her retreating back.
"She's going towards your school, Yusuke" Kurama's gentle voice drifted towards the two. They turned and found Hiei and Kurama leaning against a brick wall.
"Hn. The one next to her is a demon and I believe she is as well." Hiei observed the girl.
"Some one should inform Koenma" Kurama said.
" I'll do it!" Yusuke shouted, "anything to get out of school" he muttered under his breath.
"And I'll watch the girl!" Kuwabara started drooling.
"I think I should tell Koenma and Hiei should watch the girl" Kurama suggested.
"How come!?" they all asked together. (You know, Yusuke cause he wanted to go tell Koenma, Hiei cause he had to watch her, and Kuwabara…must you ask?)
"Hiei can watch from a tree, Yusuke, you'll probably get in trouble with Keiko, and Kuwabara, you can watch her, but only if you're in her class."
"Okay, see ya!" Kuwabara yelled as he grabbed Yusuke by the arm and dragged him away, Kurama and Hiei trailing behind them.
***************Sarasaki's front gate*************
"Okay, I'll see you after school, Sesshomaru!" Kagome waved before walking through the gates. Sesshomaru turned around and found a group of boys gazing at him intently. He glared back at the one that dared to address him.
"Hey! Who are you?" Kuwabara asked, pointing his finger at Sesshomaru. The school bell rang but none of them moved. Minutes passed until the Kurama's eyes darted toward Hiei and Sesshomaru heard a message passed under his breath.
"Go watch the girl" he whispered so quietly that Sesshomaru almost didn't catch it but he did and everyone heard a growl rise from his throat.
"Don't you dare" Sesshomaru growled, getting into a fighting stance. Yusuke and Kuwabara didn't know what was going on but knew the silent threat. Hiei and Yusuke jumped into fighting stances, too.
"Who are you?" Yusuke questioned.
"I am Sesshomaru, Lord of the Western lands of Makai" he answered stoically. At this, Hiei stood up and both Hiei and Kurama bowed out of respect.
"Whoa!!! The shrimp just bowed!" Kuwabara yelled, spit flying everywhere. Yusuke looked at him in disgust before turning back to the problem at hand.
"Yusuke, enough" Kurama said and Yusuke hesitantly stood, "I am Kurama, this is Yusuke, the other human is Kuwabara, and Hiei."
"Why are you watching Kagome?" Sesshomaru asked…okay, more like…demanded politely.
"She has unique power ,and it is our job as spirit detectives to report it to the Spirit World." Kurama answered.
"Why are you telling him? You just blew our cover, Kurama!" Yusuke yelled.
"He is Lord Sesshomaru. He knows all of this already, Yusuke." Kurama told Yusuke calmly.
"Ah, spirit detectives. I was wondering when I would have to deal with them. Fine, you will watch Kagome while Kurama takes me to speak with King Enma-" but Sesshomaru was rudely interrupted.
"Hahaha King Enma? Where have you been, the Feudal Era?! Koenma is the ruler right now!" Kuwabara was unaware of the danger he was provoking while he continued to laugh. Sesshomaru stalked closer to attack. However…
"Kuwabara! Please forgive him. He's…" Kurama desperately tried to think of an excuse but Hiei beat him to it.
"Ill in the head."
"Fine" Sesshomaru never relented his red hazed gaze off of the shivering slump on the floor as Yusuke laughed at Hiei's statement, "Kurama will take me to this Koenma…so I may speak with him about important matters. But…if anything happens to Kagome when I'm gone…" he paused to glance at each of them, "there will be Hell to pay."
"Okay" Kurama agreed and pulled out his communicator as Sesshomaru followed him into an alley. Hiei disappeared as Yusuke and Kuwabara slowly made their way to class.
Okay, there it is. I'm sorry for any mistakes. I didn't have anyone edit it and I'm sure I misspelled and had a lot of grammar problems. Review and tell me what you think. Should I keep going or give up?
Remember: It is all up to you! So review!!
