chapter 1
Kagome woke up early the next morning. She decided she wouldn't go to the well that day. Unless, of course, Inuyasha came by and dragged her back for whatever reason. She let out a small sigh. Then she heard Buyo meow at her. Kagome smiled, then looked at her clock realizing it wasn't all that early after all, because....
"OH NO!"
"Kagome's up," Sota said downstairs. He didn't sound very surprised. Kagome rushed down the stairs a few minutes later in her uniform. Her hair was still a bit messy, but she'd have to fix it at school.
"Why didn't anybody tell me I was late?!" cried Kagome.
"Relax, sis," said Sota, "Grandpa covered for you. He told your school you'd be late 'cause you had--"
"I don't even wanna know what it was this time!"
As Kagome ate her breakfast, her grandpa walked into the dining room. "Oh, Kagome, so you are going to school," he began.
"Yeah," said Kagome, "I'm taking a day off from the Feudal Era."
"Oh, good. You probably shouldn't be going anyway."
Kagome looked up as she swallowed some of her breakfast. "What do you mean?" she asked a little concerned.
--------------------------------------------------------
Oh my....
Kagome had walked down to the well house after her grandpa's 'comment' had been brought up... only to find that the well was shut.
How did this happen? she thought to herself.
How? Why? Could it have ended any worse? Now she might never see her friends again. Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kilala... Inuyasha. (a/n: I typed 'Shpoo' once instead of Shippo. lol)
--------------------------------------------------------
Kagome got to school later on that morning. She had managed to catch a bus and brush her hair out on the way. She got her things out of her locker and went to her first class.
"Nice to see you back, Kagome," smiled her English teacher (a/n: Im still not sure if its considered 'English' if shes Japanese -confused face-).
"Thanks, Ms. Takeshi." Kagome smiled and went to her desk.
"Kagome," a voice whispered. Kagome turned around and saw it was Eri.
"M-hm?"
"Where have you been?"
"Oh, uh, haven't been feeling too great lately."
Eri accepted her answer and turned her attention back to Ms. Takeshi.
As school let out that day, Kagome's other friends ran up to her.
"Kagome, we missed you!" Yuka exclaimed
"Yeah, you've been out for a while," said Ayumi, "I called your house, and your grandpa said you were recovering from--"
"A cold." Kagome interrupted, "My grandpa's a little nuts."
Ayumi got a confused look on her face. "Oh-kay…"
"Hey, Kagome," Eri brought up, "We're going to the movies tomorrow, y'know, just to hang out. You want to come?"
Kagome thought for a moment. "Uhmm... I could probably make it. I'll think about it and call you later."
"Okay, so I'll see you then."
"'Kay, see ya guys!"
Kagome walked away toward her bus stop, and her friends went their ways. "Bye!" they called.
Kagome walked to the sidewalk and waited for her bus. Before she got there, however, she noticed a group of girls talking to each other. They were wearing the same uniform she wore at her school. She didn't really recognize any of them, but one girl whose face she couldn't see did seem a little familiar.
She couldn't hear what any of them were saying until all the girls but one started walking away, and one of them said to her: "Okay, see ya!"
"Later, guys!" she called back. The girl turned around to face the street, and Kagome immediately recognized her face-- but, how could it have been possible?...
"SANGO?"
The girl looked at Kagome, kind of confused. "Uhh...hi...."
"What are you doing here?!"
Kagome was starting to get her a little nervous. Did they know each other from somewhere? Just as she was about to ask, the bus pulled up to the sidewalk and they got on.
Kagome was confused. This girl was definitely Sango. But how?
There were a lot of seats taken up on the bus, so Kagome and Sango took a seat together. The first few minutes were silent, just the sounds of everybody else talking to each other. Then Sango spoke up: "Uh, do I know you from somewhere?"
Kagome turned around (she was looking out the window). "Uhm, yeah, I... I guess. You mean you don't remember?"
"Remember what?" Sango asked.
Guess not.
"Th-the well."
"What well?"
"The well I always came through to meet up with you and everyone else. Before..."
"Before the well sealed up," Sango quietly stated.
Kagome looked at her curiously. "What did you say?"
"Uhh... n-nothing. It's not important." The bus came to a stop in front of a tall apartment. "Oh, this is my stop." Sango stood up and began to walk away. "See you tomorrow, Kagome."
Kagome froze. "Wait!" Sango stopped and turned around. "I never even told you my name. How did you know what it was?"
Sango was shocked. Was she serious? "I... I don't know. I guess somewhere in the back of my mind, I just knew."
Kagome was silent as Sango walked away. The doors closed, and the bus started up again. Then she wondered, could this have happened with the rest of her friends?
If it had, this would take some adjusting to....
