Water Works


Dragon Man 180- Inuyasha and Kagome will be main parts in the story. I'm not sure about Sango, Miroku, and Shippo though. They might just be in and out of the story.

love-bracelet123- Shourai is very misunderstood. :( Poor her. Yes yes! I'll read your story! And I've got 4 stories going right now. I'm not talented, I'm just crazy.

LiL:.CaT:.AnImE- No, I've never heard of gaia. I'd check it out but I don't have a web address... Kagome is at her school. Inuyasha is through the well sulking because Kagome's at school. It's a typical scene.

DarkPirate-510- Here's the second update!!

Lucied's sis- Read and see!

Cartoon-Protector- You've never heard of a legend telling of something to come? I suppose prophacy (or however you spell it) would have been a better word choice. But there are such things as legends telling of things to come.


At noon, Shourai limped out of the classroom, towards lunch. She smiled at the idea of food. Her lunch was special today. She had made it herself. Onigiri, (No, not Onigumo folks. I bet Inuyasha would love to see someone munch on Naraku, but it's not happening here.) sweet green tea, an orange, and some chocolate pocky as a treat.
Then something occured to Shourai. Her lunch had been in her backpack and her backpack was currently in some dark alley. She sighed and dug through her pockets, coming up with enough for a turkey sandwich in the caffiteria. Oh well. It would have to do. A sandwich was better than not eating at all.
"What do you have there Mizuko?" Anton asked, stepping in front of her, followed by his friends. "Is that lunch money?" "Yes." Shourai replied, sticking it back into her pocket, "Now if you'd excuse me, I have to buy my lunch." "But weren't you just about to give me all your money?" Anton asked cracking his knuckles, "When you do you won't have money to pay for your food so why bother?"
Shourai backed up a little, nervous. "I wasn't going to give you my money." she said, "I need it for my lunch." "Did you hear that?" Anton asked looking at his friends, "She needs her money for her lunch!" His friends snickered. "Sorry sweet heart, but I think you'll just have to go hungry today." the bully said, "Now hand the money over and we won't hurt you."
Tentively, Shourai handed them her money. Anton took it and counted it. He frowned and punched her on the nose. "That's for having a pathetic amount of money on you." he said walking away. His friends followed. Shourai touched her nose gently. It was bleeding, but it didn't hurt enough to be broken.
"And that's the high point of the day." she mumbled, "Not getting a broken nose." Shourai headed off toward's the bathroom to mop the blood up. Most people would have gone to the nurse's office, but the last time Shourai did that she had ended up in the principal's office with Anton. The boy had played innocent and she had gotten detention for a month for starting a fight. Shourai wasn't about to do that again.

By the time Shourai got her nose to stop bleeding, she was five minutes late for gym. She limped over to the locker room and changed as fast as she possibly could, arriving in the gym just as the coach finished saying the instructions.
"You're late Mizuko-chan!" he barked. "I'm sorry sensei." she said bowing. The coach scowled at her. "Get with the group." he instructed, "We're picking teams for a basket ball game." Shourai sighed unhappily. She was always chosen last.
And like all the other times Shourai was chosen last. "Wait a second!" the coach said, "Teno-chan is absent, team 1 has an extra player! Someone has to get off of the team. Choose who!" There wasn't even a discussion. All eyes on the team went to Shourai. She sighed, knowing she had been voted out.
"Alright, Mizuko-chan." the coach said, "Do fifty laps of the gym instead of playing the game." Shourai looked down at her leg. "I can't sensei." she replied. "And why is that?" he asked. "I hurt my leg when I tripped on the way to school." "Too bad." the coach replied, "Now do sixty for trying to get out of it." Shourai began her laps slowly. A few people snickered as she stumbled off.

At four, both Sessha and Sasugo walked into their father's office. "Lessons are over father." Sasugo said, "I'm going out to see my friends." Sesshoumaru looked up from his work and to his son. The boy looked somewhat like his mother. His shoulder length hair was a pale gold while her hair had been a sunny yellow.Sasugo had her eyes though. Large grass green eyes.
Sesshoumaru nodded. "Go if you like." he said, "Sesshoumaru does not understand why you are so friendly with these humans, but I suppose there are not many demons around here." "Try none." Sasuga said walking out of the room.
"And what are you going to do daughter?" Sesshoumaru asked. "Sessha's going to stay right here." the girl said sitting in her corner. Like so many children her age, she followed her father around. That was one of the reasons Sesshoumaru had started her lessons at such an early age. But it didn't help. Sessha came to stay with her father before lessons, during her lunch break, and after lessons. And with doing this she had picked up Sesshoumaru's bad habbits, such as speaking in the third person.
Sessha picked up one of her dolls and began to play. Sesshoumaru returned to his work but he was interupted once again only moments later. Jaken walked in. "What is it Jaken?" he asked, "Have you found more on the girl?" "No, milord!" the imp replied, "But we don't even know how old the girl will be or if she's even been born in this era!"
"The girl will be young when we find her." Sesshoumaru said, "Your stories have told me that. Isn't that right Sessha?" Sessha nodded vigerously."See?" the demon lord asked, "My daughter says you've said the girl will be young and Sessha's too young to forget such things like that. As for knowing that she's been born in this era, I just have a feeling."
"But by 'young' what do you mean?" Jaken questioned. "Father says young means someone twelve or under." Sessha told him, "And Father is never wrong." "Continue your searching Jaken." Sesshoumaru commanded. Jaken sighed and walked out of the room.

Shourai practically dragged herself out of detention when it was over. Her limp had gotten worse during her sixty laps around the gym and she couldn't go home yet. She still had to go to the shrine and pray for her dead parents. Sighing, Shourai dragged herself out of school, hoping that that crazy priest at the shrine would take some time to tell her one of his strange legends.
