Chapter 2 : The Arrival

Kagomes PoV:

I wake up this morning before my alarmclock. 'Somethings wrong' I thought. ' I never wake up before my alarm clock.' I tuned off the clock and looked out the window. I saw that dog boy sleeping in the tree outside my window.

'I told him not to came here anymore' I sighed, ' "I'm mad at you InuYasha. I'm going home. DON'T TRY TO GET ME!" Does he ever listen to what I sa. . . Maybe he's here to apologize!'

I was struggling to get out of my covers when I found that I had a war on my hands. The covers wouldn't come off! 'Okay covers,' I thought. I turned around and around. The coveers finally came off, but I found a little bundle sleeping next to me. I jumped out of bed and stared the bundle down more closly. I turned the bundle around only to find myself in front of Souta.

'Why can't he go sleep with mom like normal kids?'

"SOUTA!" I yelled in his ear.

Souta jolted up. He looked around at his surroundings before he looked up at me. He turned around again and his head stopped in front of the window.

"Kagome?" He asked.

"What? You little brat. . ." I mumbled the last part so he wouldn't hear.

"Why is InuYasha outside the window?"

That's right! I was going to get InuYasha off of the roof.

"Get down Sota," I started to pull the covers off of him, " and I'll ask him."

He got off of the bed and I walked toward the window. I stoped and unlocked the window, only opening it enough for him to come in.


Normal POV:

InuYasha woke up only to find Kagome and Souta staring at him. He saw that as a welcome to come in.

"What are you doing here?" Kagome asked the hanyou as he stepped inside. He looked at Kagome and quickly turned away, sweating.

'She looks scary with her hair like that.' InuYasha thought as he turned around slightly.

'Why is he acting so weird?' Kagome thought. She then thoought of the only thing that he could've saw when he saw her. She reached up and sure enough. She was a total bed-head. SHe quickly ran to her brush and quickly brushed her hair down. When she believed it looked okay, she asked him again.

"What are you doing here InuYasha?" she decided to ask a little nicer. 'I hope he'll finally apologise.'

He looked at Kagome. "I'm here to fetc. . . get you back, wench. We have a lot of hunting to do."

Kagome sighed a deep sigh. 'I shouldn't have expected so much from a baka like him.'

She turned around and lead Souta out of her room.

"What are you doing, wench? We need to go!" InuYasha huffed out.

Kagome turned around. "I need to eat breakfast. Besides, you've waited all night. Can't you wait for at least two more hours?"

Kagome turned around, missing the blush on InuYasha's face, and walked out of her room with Souta in front of her.

Kagome walked down stairs. She let go of Souta outside of her room. He rushed into his room.

"Kagome. I have something to tell you." Kagome heard her mother yell.

Kagome walked into the kitchen to find her mom making breakfast.

"Yes mom?" Kagome said as she sat down.

"Im going to pick up your cousin. Can you make the rest of breakfast while I'm gone?"

Kagome almost forgot about her cousin Lyn. Well. . . She really isn't her cousin, she's more like her adopted relative.

'I can't go with InuYasha today. . .' Kagome thought, 'I need to stay here and greet my cousin, but how am I going to tell InuYasha?'


Lyn Pov:

'This can't be happening. I'm my only family. Im not going to Tokyo, Japan. Im not, im not im not.'

"Lyn wake up!" a disembodied voice said.

I stirred, moaned and groaned. Why are they yelling?

"I think she's waking up."

"Okay. . ." came an all to familiar voice, "Everyone get out of the way. She needs breathing space."

I fluttered my eyes open. I saw five of the orphan staring down at me.

"Lyn are you all right?" I groaned louder."Get out of the way! She needs more room!" the voice yelled again.

'I need the voices to be a little more quiet!'

"Wha. . . what happend?" I mannaged to get out. My head was throbbing.

"You passed out." a little voice behind me said.

"We got her bags ready!" Yelled an older voice. "Did she awake yet?"

"She did. Everyone, help me get her into the cab."

'Th-the CAB!'

I felt about twenty hands lift me off of the ground.

"Where am I going!" I asked the woman that was leading the kids.

"You're going to Tokyo." she merrily sang down the steps of the orphanage.

"WHAT!" I exclaimed as I tried to struggle out of the kids grasps. I got out of there hold and ran in front of the woman.

"Mrs.Dew," I said panting, "You can't be serious. Im American, I don't speak Japanise! I don't belong there!"

Mrs.Dew stared at me for a while, then she put on her scariest smirk I've ever wittnessed. "Lyn," she calmly said, "Don't you remember that your first language was in fact Japanese? Well, I thought that you would pretend not to remember, so I took the liberty and asked if anyone in the Higurashi's shrine spoke English."

"Well. . ." I impaitently said staring at the bags that were dropped next to me.

"There is a girl, about your age, that can speak our language fluently. Her name is Kagome. The mother can speak English as well, but not a well as her daughter." Mrs. Dew explained to me as she violently pushed me into the cab.

"Here's your ticket." She said as she passed a small envelope. Mrs. Dew signaled the driver to go. As I went out of sight, she shouted, "DON'T FORGET TO WRITE!"

I can't beleive she did that to me. After all we've been through. . . actually, now that I think of it. I've always wanted to go back to Japan.


Normal PoV:

Lyn excited the plane a few minuets ago. She was frantically looking aroud for someone.

'I fell like I have a "I'm a baka" sign on my back.' Lyn looked at her back to see if it were true. 'Nope. . . not there.'

"Lyn-chan! Lyn-chan!" Lyn heard a woman yelling.

Lyn turned around to see a woman with short brown hair waving at her. Lyn believed that was Ms. Higurashi. She picked up her bag and walked over to her.

"Konichiwa Lyn-chan. Anata wa Higurashi desu, " the woman greeted Lyn.

Trying to remember her old customs, Lyn bowed slightly and replied. "Konichi wa Higurashi-san. Anata wa Lyn desu."

"Nice to meet you Lyn, " she hugged Lyn

'Maybe I'll like being here.' thought Lyn as she hugged back.


Lyn and Ms.Higurashi parked the car in front of some steps. Lyn stepped out of the passenger seat as looked up at the big shrine steps. She whistled.

"There are exactly 200 steps... I think," Said Ms. Higurashi.

Lyn mouthed the word 'wow'. She grabed onto Ms.Higurashi. Ms.Higurashi looked down at a smirking Lyn. 'That looks like InuYasha's smirk.' she thought.

"Do you want to make sure there is exactly 200 steps?" Lyn smiled bright.

Ms.Higurashi nodded her head and started to walk up the steps with Lyn, counting all of the steps along the way.
