Inu Kaiba: So sorry for those who love IM Me, I've been updating everything else. I also got a flame and to them, I'm sorry you don't like it. As for the making fun of, I just plain don't like The Killers, but I'll stop dissing them now. Also with the script format, it was kind of obvious who was talking,'cause I put the names in.Without further ado, here is chapter 5.

What You Waiting For?

-

The first thing I registered when I got on was surprise. The amount of time the Inu Kaiba girl has expected would be gone for had long since past. But I was persistent and stayed on all the way up 'till InuYasha had said to go to bed.

I was logging off when the phone rang. I ignored it, and Kaede-baba picked up. There was a yell, "It's for you Kagome," before I sighed loudly and sauntered over to the phone.

"Hello?" was spoken into the receiver.

"Go to bed." Was InuYasha's reply.

"I'm going alright?"

"You better be rested and well in class tomorrow."

"I will be. Goodbye."

"Bye."

As I prepared for bed, and pulled the covers back, and climbed in… I was thinking. 'I wish I'd had more of a chance to talk to that Inu Kaiba girl.' I thought before I fell asleep.

-

The first thing I said when I opened my eyes were… "Shit." The first thing I did was throw a book at the radio.

"Christmas music, oh lord another holiday for happy people, rich bastards to give gifts to spoiled brats, while children suffer in the streets. And it's only November, we shouldn't be hearing this until December."

"Sango, don't poison the mood with your sarcasm. Be happy, it'll be Christmas soon."

"Mom, you know I hate Christmas. It's just another holiday I have to spend with our relatives and watch them all be happy. They hate me because I'm a burden and because I'm so rude to everyone."

"But you are rude to them Sango."

"Only because we have a perfect family; that dissects those around us and insults them. We're no better, if not worse, then those we insult."

"Sango, you will not speak about what we say in this family outside the house."

"I'd like to see you try to stop me."

With that, Sango turned on her heel and walked out of her home. Walked out on her poor mother, who tried so hard. Walked out on the mother who was so very kind to her…

-

School was no better than home life, for either of the two. It seemed they both had something in common, that the school days seemed so long to them.

Sango spent most of her time in the hall, outside of the prinicipal's office, in the supply room, or the room with the bed.

She'd been suspended so many times, it was suprising they hadn't expelled her yet.

Perhaps it was because the school was only 130 kids or so and she'd been there since she was in Kindergarten. But mostly she guessed it was because her mother was a member of the little group at the school, The Catholic Clan, which helped establish fundraisers, and discussed previous successful fundraisers.

Sango's mother was the Treasurer, and she counted the earned money and put it in the school's bank account. Sango had nicked a few dollars, sometimes up to ten from the money she brought home.

She noticed her mother would replace it with her own money, but lately she had been telling the school that their first counts were a few dollars higher, sometimes up to ten ollars higher then what the actual amount was.

It was simple really. Sango's little swindlings of hard earned school money were getting to be too much for her mother to pay back. Sango had a feeling her mother knew she took the money… She also suspected her mother wondered why her daughter simply wouldn't ask for the money.

That answer was also simplicity in itself. Sango liked the thrill of stealing and not getting caught, and the fact that some of the money she helped earn went into her pocket.

Because the school was so small and they could barely get any willing parents to help, her mother could not be replaced. And if they expelled her, her mother would go with her, she couldn't stay after her daughter was removed. She had to stay for a bit, but only until she was replaced, and if she stayed for a long time, her mother might begin to expect the school wasn't trying to find a suitable replacement for her and would simply leave… no buts about it.

Her mother was like that sometimes. If she thought someone was pulling the wool over her eyes, she'd be out of there faster then a speeding bullet.

While Sango spent most of her school day outside the classroom, and collected her homework instructions and books at the end of the day from Kanna, Kagome's days were quite the opposite.

As long as she was quiet, and the number of students was fairly large… The room would seem to swallow her up and the teacher wouldn't notice.

She would spend that time writing and drawing or even reading beneath her desk, as long as she didn't get caught… If she did, there went her drawing, writing paper or book. The first time her teacher took her book and kept it for herself, Kagome made sure only to read books from the school's library in class.

Those would have to be returned to the library. And she could take out the confiscated book later to finish, after the hubbub had died down about her taking out the book.

Most of the time, her over quiet-ness caused the teacher to write bad conduct marks for participation, and most of the time the nicest teachers would put in that she was overly quiet and chose not to participate a lot. Meaner teachers even put in that they took her drawing and writing things away, and if she wished to get her items back, her parents would have to talk to the teachers about it. The meanest ones explained how Kagome spent her class time drawing and they refused to give anything back, and if she chose to use her class time doing unproductive things, too bad for her if those things were taken away.

And that day seemed like one of the worst and longest for both girls.

Sango was suspended yet again for 'roughhousing' with Miroku as Mrs. Montgomery put it.

And Kagome's favorite drawing was taken away by a teacher who confiscated it and would give it back at the end of the week if she did not draw in any of her classes for a week, or if one of her parents came to get it.

It was the final straw for her teachers, and they told her to take a break from school to draw, the just couldn't handle her. They told her, Don't come tomorrow unless you plan to learn.

So Kagome took it as a free day off. However she'd have it marked as a sick day or maybe even a suspension. But she took the risk, she wouldn't be able to learn tomorrow.

Who knew they would both log in, and have the same display name? That same names was: I'm Suspended.

Inu Kaiba: Bloody hell, this chapter was so hard. I'm so glad, it's done. There should be detail next chapter. This story is getting hard, I want length in it but meh. If I can get at least 10,000 words I'll be lucky I'll update when I amst inspired! I need five more words to have 1,300 and yay!
