Disclaimer: your mom's disclaimer

Kagome and Sango stared blankly at their breakfast in thought.

What did it mean by 7 days? How did it get there? What was with that movie? Why had kikyo given it to kagome? What with all the questions? Sango let out a sigh of confusion. Maybe, they were going to die in a week…it was the only other solution. Was this tape the reason the slytherin students had gone missing? Had kikyo watched it?

Kagome rubbed her head, all this was giving her a head ache. The tape was the weirdest thing. But the thing that confused her most was all the different images on in the tape. Did they mean something? She would have to watch it again to try and see all the clues…

"you two are being very quiet. Is anything wrong?" Miroku broke the silence at the breakfast table.

Inuyasha stopped gorging himself and looked up, "yeah, you guys are acting kinda weird today."

Kagome snapped out of her trance, "no, we're fine. We're just…kinda sleepy."

Sango nodded, "Quidditch practice."

"Quidditch practice my butt." Inuyasha retorted, "you guys are not acting like your annoying selves? Is something wrong?"

Kagome and Sango looked at each other. Sango gave a slight nod

"well last night…" kagome trailed off

Miroku and inuyasha leaned in slightly.

"did you get hurt?" inuyasha was slightly worried. Kagome was acting really different, and he would never admit this out loud but he was kinda concerned.

"well…last night, I ran into kikyo."

Inuyasha was kinda taken back, "kikyo's here?"

Kagome nodded, "she gave me a tape, and…" she looked over at Sango.

"good morning all." Everyone looked up to see Harry, Ron, and Hermione making their way over to the table.

"hi." They all said in stereo.

"are you guy's ready for divination class?" Ron asked as he sat down by inuyasha.

"Urgh, I hate that class. It's..so…weird."

"Hermione, your making an A in that class." Harry said while making himself comfortable by kagome. And also getting a glare from inuyasha.

"well, just because im making an a doesn't mean I have to like it." Hermione placed herself by Ron.

"um, what the hell's divininaeration?" inuyasha piled more food in his mouth.

"to put it simply, it's like a fortune telling class."

"O-o fun." Inuyasha said flatly.

"I think it sounds interesting." Kagome commented.

"you would."

Kagome's eyes narrowed, "what's that supposed to mean?"

"what do you think it means wretch?"

"That's it!" kagome shot out of her seat, obviously agitated with inuyasha, "why do you ALWAYS friggin call me that!"

Some heads from other tables turned her way.

Inuyasha shrugged, "I dunno, it just…suits you."

Kagome put her hands on her hips, "so know im a miserable person!" (A/N: I looked it up on it has a lot of meanings….)

"…yeah."

Kagome gave inuyasha the death glare, "you didn't even know what it meant did you?"

"I did so!"

"sure ya did." Kagome rolled her eyes.

The two's little argument had caught the attention of most of the Gryffindor table and was slowly moving onto the whole room. And whilst in their little spat, the fact that they were still in Hogwarts slipped her mind.

"WHATEVER!" kagome sat back down in her chair, "SIT!"

Inuyasha didn't budge. He smirked at Kagome triumphantly.

Kagome just stood there discombobulated. Why wasn't the spell working? It took her a few seconds before she got it. Well, in Hogwarts, the same rules don't apply, so obviously, it's not going to work. Kagome mentally kicked herself. She had gotten the attention of basically the whole room, and she just yelled out a dog command.

Kagome leaned over to Sango, "how stupid do I look right know?"

"pretty stupid."

Kagome nodded, "thought so."

The room was still filled with awkward silence and kagome was getting a bunch of weird looks.

Sango couldn't just sit there and watch her friend suffer, so she played along.

"hehe, kagome your such a kidder." She 'playfully' nudged kagome with her elbow. But in reality hit her pretty hard.

She got the message, "I know what was I thinking."

Sango looked at Miroku to make him play along, "right Miroku?"

He didn't get it, "what?'

She kicked him under the table, "isn't kagome just suuch a kidder?"

He finally caught on, "oh yeah, kagome…you and your jokes."

The three started "laughing" if you could call it laughing. It was more like a over exaggerated laugh you would hear from a really, really bad actor.

Whatever it was, it turned away the attention of the room.

Inuyasha just sat there, "you guys are weird."

"we love you to." Sango said sarcastically.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione were still kinda confused but they brushed it off.

Kagome looked around the table, "has anyone seen Shippo today?"

"probably off with that Ginny chick again." Inuyasha said going back to his eating.

Ron's face dropped.

Harry smiled at Ron, "come on, don't be a sorry sport, they do make a cute little couple."

"their not a couple." Ron stated.

Hermione laughed, "your being protective."

"so."

Ring

"there's the bell, lets get to class."

Everyone grabbed their stuff and made their way to their first class of the day. Divination.

X

The group walked into the classroom. Kagome was smiling from ear to ear, the divination room was way cooler then she had imagined it. There were about 15 different small round tables, each covered in a different hand made cloth. In the center of the tables, was a crystal ball. The room itself was lit by candle light, which added a spooky feel to it.

Seeing as their only two chairs at each table Inuyasha paired off with Miroku and Kagome got a table with Sango. They sat down and waited for the class to start.

They watched each of the students filing the class room slowly making their way to their seats. They spotted ayame come in, she saw Kagome and Sango smiled and waved. She walked over to their table, "hey guys, are you feeling any better?" she asked.

Kagome and Sango just went with it.

"we're doing somewhat better. Memories aren't fully recovered yet though."

"aw, well I hope you get better. Anyway, have you guys heard about kikyo?"

Sango and Kagome looked at each other skeptically, "…heard what?"

"well, she went missing this morning. Last person who saw him said that she was headed for the woods."

"the woods?"

"yup, as odd as it sounds, she was headed for the woods."

"How many have disappeared so far?" Kagome said in a worried tone.

"im not sure but they I think it was about 5 students. I also have heard some rumors about Dumbledore closing down the school if anymore disappear."

"I hope they find out what's wrong before it comes to that."

"we all do." Kagome looked towards the door to see a centaur walk through the door.

"good morning class, if everyone gets in their seats then we can start."

All the students did as they were told and went found themselves places to sit, while class began.

Everyone slumped over in their chairs taking notes. Inuyasha had fallen asleep and was snoring rather loudly. Miroku on the other hand was taking note with the rest of the class, while professor Firenze lectured. Kagome had begun doodling all over her paper out of shear boredom. Sango had taken enjoyment out of writing notes back and forth to Kagome. This had been going on for majority of class time. Kagome was soon disappointed to find out that the classes in Hogwarts were just as boring as the ones back home.

Kagome, I don't think that the jealousy thing is going very well. Sango passed the paper over to kagome.

She read the note over, scribbled a response and went back to her, oh so fun doodling.

Its because your not doing it right.

What am I supposed to do? Walk up to a random guy and do the hokey pokey?

that works.

not funny.

I thought it was.

Haha, Im rolling.

Kagome felt a sudden chill. She looked up from her notes to try and find the source of the chill. Everything was as it was supposed to be, the teacher was up front, and the students were taking notes. She blew it off and went back to the notes.

Well, you could play the innocent 'im lost' thing.

ill try that next time I get lost. Which never happens.

Well, its always worth a shot.

Sure whatever. But doesn't Miroku have to be around when a do it.

Practice makes perfect.

Sango sighed and folded the paper up. she would have to try that sometime. After placing the crumpled up noted with her other papers she began to try to pay attention to class. But something caught her eye. In the darker corner on the other side of the room, she saw a person standing against the wall. She poked kagome in the shoulder and pointed over to it.

Kagome nodded to assure Sango she saw it. Over in the corner was what looked like, a little girl. The girls long black hair covered most of her face and her head was limp. Red blood stains were left on her white night gown.

Kagome and Sango could only stare. They could feel the hair on there arms raise when another burst of cold air came from nowhere. The girls head moved upward.

Sango looked around to see if maybe anyone else could see the girl, only to find, everyone else had disappeared. The candles on the tables blew out from a puff of even colder air.

Kagome stumbled from her chair and fell onto the ground. The girls head continued to move upward until it reached the gaze of Kagome and Sango. She moved away from the dark corner with jerky movements. Slow at first then she walked faster towards to two girls. Kagome crawled backwards on her hands to try and get away from the girl.

Sango was frozen stiff in her chair. Her breaths became longer and drawn out, she could see her breath in front of her face. When she saw the whatever it was walk towards them, she convinced herself to move down to kagome's level.

The girl started to crawl, over the table tops. Her joints cracked with every movement she made. Kagome and Sango got up and ran for the door Kagome tugged on the handle desperately, but it didn't budge. The black hair girl was merely feet away, and slowly drawing closer.

A chilling croaking sound came from inside of the girls throat and slowly grew louder as she crawled closer.

EH-h-hhh-hh-hhhh-hhhh-hh-hh-hhhhhhhhhh

Sango and Kagome were pushed up as far as they could on the door. Their breaths grew heavey as did the white air coming from their mouths. She girl got to where they were and stood and rose up in an un-natural way. The croaking sound stopped, to leave them in an eerie silence as the girl stood there a few inches away from them.

two pale hand shot from beside her and grabbed onto an arm of each girl. The croaking began once again and her head looked up so the two could see into her dead lifeless eyes.

Ring- Ring

The bell next period came sounding over the school. Kagome and Sango looked around to find the room back to normal. The students were gathering up their books to go to the next class, and their wasn't any sign of the ghost girl. They looked down at their arms were the girl had grabbed them to see a bruised hand print on their arms. They walked back over to their table without a word and picked up their books.

Inuyasha and Miroku made their way over to the girls' table.

"so are you lady's ready to go-wait, what's wrong with you guys, you look like you just saw a ghost.." Miroku asked.

The girls just looked at each other, If only he knew.

"no, were fine." Sango said, while also trying to convince herself the same thing.

"we're just still really tired from the Quiddich practice. We must not have gotten much sleep."

Inuyasha eye kagome skeptically, "somehow I doubt that's what's wrong."

"that's all." Kagome said picking up her books.

Inuyasha looked at kagome, "are you sure that's all? I don't want you to get hurt or anything."

Kagome thought, should I really tell him….no. I cant do that, he'll only get all protective and demand to see the movie himself.

She nodded, "that all."

The group began to head for the door.

"hey have you guys heard that another student has gone missing?" Sango said recalling her previous conversation with ayame.

"really? Do we know them?"

"…you could say that. Kikyo was last spotted heading for the forest."

This caught inuyasha's attention, "kikyo?"

Kagome avoided inuyasha's gaze and nodded.

"so, where are we off to next?" asked Miroku trying to subdue the awkwardness of the conversation.

Sango looked at her paper, "potions class."

"ok, then lets go." Said kagome.

Sango began to walked towards the bathroom, "ill catch up with you guys in a minute, im gonna go to the rest room."

Kagome waved toward Sango, "ok, we'll see you in potions class!"

Sango walked out of the bathroom. And began to walk towards her next class. Wait, it's the other way…right?

Sango grumbled. She didn't know the way to class, she was soooo gonna be late. She looked around the halls helplessly for anyone who might know how to get there. She spotted the blonde boy from the other day. What was his name again….d-something….Draco. yes, that's it, Draco. Hadn't Kagome told her to stay away from him? Hm, well he was the only one around, and this would be the perfect time to work on that, 'im lost, help me' thing. So Sango put on her best 'im so helpless' face and ventured over to Draco.

X

Sango walked into the class room followed by Draco. Draco went to his seat in time to avoid being seen by Professor Snape when he turned around to see who had come in.

"Ms. Natsume, your late, that's 10 points from Gryffindor."

Sango stood there trying to think if loosing points was a bad thing or not. Well, seeing the current situation, it was a bad thing.

"I got lost on the way here." She explained.

"well that's your fault and not mine, please take your seat." The Professor said turning back to the board.

"that's not fair! I have a memory loss! I don't know whats in half the school!" sango protested.

She could see kagome sitting in a front desk with hermionie. She was giving her that 'you better shut up or you in deep crap' look, but sango didn't get the meesage.

"Ms. Natsume, I suggest you sit down before you loose more points."

Sango was getting annoyed, "no! im not sitting down because I didn't know where to go and your holding it against me! It's not MY fault I got knocked out while playing….whatever that weird game is!"

Sango could see kagome shaking her head, moving her hands back and forth trying to tell her to stop.

"that a detention, and 10 more points from Gryffindor. Now, sit down and take notes with the rest of the class."

Kagome hit her hand against her head, how stupid can Sango be? Really?

Sango pointed to Draco, "he was late to! But I don't see you giving HIM any detention!"

The professor looked at the blonde boy, "is that true Mr. Malfoy?"

Draco reluctantly nodded, "yes sir."

"ok, then 15 points from slytherin."

Sango tapped her foot, "is that ALL your gonna do! I get a freaking detention and he looses a measly 15 points!"

Kagome just shook her head, Sango was digging her own grave.

Snape looked at malfoy, "because of the current situation, you will have a detention to." He looked at Sango, "you will both report to me tonight after dinner for detention. Now please take your seat Ms. Natsume."

Sango gladly went and sat down in an empty desk near the front.

The bell rang a short time later and Sango began to gather her books while kagome came to talk to her. Inuyasha and Miroku were gathering their books.

"Sango, do you know how stupid you are?" Kagome said helping her gather her books.

"well, yes I got a detention, whatever that is but at least that Draco kid got in trouble to."

"Sango, detention is when you sit in a room for a long time doing nothing. And you just got that creep in there with you."

Sango just waved it off, "it wont be that bad." But just as she said that Draco walked passed.

"see you in detention, Natsume." He winked lecherously and walked off.

"…please don't tell me I just got myself detention with that weirdo."

Kagome laughed, "you just now noticed that?"

"…yes."

Miroku and inuyasha came walking up, "I don't like that kid." Miroku said pointing in the direction of malfoy.

"we all don't." said kagome.

Everyone went through the day surprisingly not killing themselves or getting any more detentions. One close call was in advanced care of magical creatures, inuyasha had a pretty close call with a hippogriff but he came out of that with only a few bruises. They we're glade when the classes were over and they could go to the dorms to wait for dinner.

The gang were all sitting in the common room talking to each other about the days events. Mostly it was inuyasha and Miroku talking, Sango and kagome were kinda shaken up over what happened in divination class.

Miroku looked at Kagome and Sango, "you two have been pretty quite, is everything ok?"

Sango nodded slightly, "yes, everything's fine." She looked at her covered arm where the girl had left a print on her arm. She and kagome had managed to cover it with their robes. Kirara lay on her lap sleeping quietly.

"you girls have been acting weird all day. I know theirs something wrong. Your just not telling us." Inuyasha said eyeing the two girls.

The two looked at each other, Sango nodded.

"well, you remember me telling you i had seen kikyo on the way back from practice?

Inuyasha nodded, "yeah."

Kagome looked at Sango. Sango decided to take it from there.

"well, kikyo had given her a tape. She came back and we watched it together…It was really weird. And after that we went to our rooms and…well, 7 days was written in blood on the wall."

"so that's why you girls have been acting so weird." Concluded Miroku.

"that's not all." Added kagome, "in divination….well…"

Kagome looked over at Sango and they both lifted their sleeves to show the bruise, hand print.

Inuyasha took a deep breath, "where is this tape?" he asked.

"your not gonna watch it are you!" kagome asked.

"well what do ya expect me to do?" inuyasha yelled

"inuyasha, promise me that you and Miroku wont watch it! I don't want you to get hurt."

Inuyasha shook his head, "sorry kagome."

X

Kagome banged on the door of the closet, "LET US OUT! INUYAHSA!"

"sorry I can hear you!" he said while he and Miroku sat in front of the television.

It was Sango's turn to yell, "MIROKU! GET YOUR BUTT OVER HERE AND LET US OUT! I PROMISE I WONT SMAKE YOU ANYMORE!" hey, if demanding didn't work, why not bribery?

Miroku didn't move from his spot in front of the tv, "even though that sounds really tempting, I cant do that Sango."

Kagome hit the door once more before falling to the ground, leaning against the door.

Sango continued to hit the door.

"Sango, their not gonna let us out."

Sango slid to the floor, "damn it."

The girls sat their in the dark waiting to be released from their closet prison. They sat in silence for about a minute, when the heard scratching from behind some of the coats. It slowly grew louder until the girls hear an oh, too familiar sound.

EH-h-hhhhh-hhh-h-hhhhhhhhh-h-h-hhh

They sprang up and beat on the door for dear life.

Inuyasha and Miroku turned their heads when they heard the sudden banging on the door. The movie had just ended. At first they figured they just wanted to get out to not let them see the movie, but that opinion changed when they heard screaming once the banging had stopped.

They looked at each other and ran for the door, inuyasha swung it open to have kagome run out of the closet into his arms crying. Kagome was followed by Sango who ran directly to Miroku. The girls had cuts and bruises all over their faces. And in the midst of the tears, inuyasha swore he heard the smallest whisper with his dog ears coming from the closet. It took him a moment to decipher what it said, but when he figured it out he's eyes widened, he looked over to Miroku who was cradling Sango and mouthed "seven days."
