Chapter two: How It Is

Kagome finally got up and crawled out of bed. 'Damn the mornings' she thought to herself as she made her way into the bathroom. Or what she thought was the bathroom she opened the door and found herself in a large closet. 'Wait this is not the right room, oh yeah new house.' She turned off the light, got out of the room, and turned down the hall and into the bathroom.

"Damn it mom how am i supposed to know where the hell anything is." She said out loud to no one in perticular.

She had just spent the first night in their new house. A house they they had inhireted from her late ojiisan. He had died six years ago along with her father and brother but his lawyer could not find his will, and not even two weeks before being threatened by their landlord, who had planned to sell the house that they rented for so long, he found the will in a deposit box that no one had known he owned. so tow and a half weeks later they moved in and today would be her first day in her new school.

'Wonderful' she thought to herself as she looked up at faucet that was spraying water on her hair and dripped down her body. Kagome turned the knobs on the shower and the cascading water stopped, then gathered her hair in her hands and wrung out the extra water. She stepped out of the shower and walked back to her room and changed into what she would wear to school. A black tank top fringed with maroon lace and a pair of blue jeans. Then she went back into the bathroom to blowdry her hair. She had to leave her house at 7:00 if she was going to make it to school at 7:30. Kagome went into the kitchen and looked at the clock above the stove read five till seven. Oh well no time for breakfast today. 'Sigh' ,she grabbed her backpack off of the floor in the living room where she had thrown it the night before, and ran out the door.

She walked slowly the whole way to school, she convinced herself it was because she wanted to savor the feel of the early morning wind, and not because she was avoiding what she knew was going to be a lonely and very dull day at her new school. Ok it wasnt that she was an outsider or anything it was just that . . . .. no wait that was pretty much it. She wasnt sure what it was there was just something about her that was different. Maybe that was why she never made friends the way she knew other people did or the reason that she never had a boyfriend. But she had always blamed that one on the fact that she had never met anyone that she felt like getting close to. She was afraid that anyone she got close to would eventually disappear and that was more than she could bear. But that fear didnt stop her from dreaming.

She made it to school 5 minutes late. 'Thats what I get for walking so slow.' She walked up to the front office, she had been here the day before to sign her into the school but she didnt have a schedule and even if she did its not like she knew where anything was.

"Uuuuummmm, hello is anyone here?" Kagome looked into the office and didn't see anyone at the desk. A few seconds later a short petite woman with brown hair piled into a bun on the top of her head and small red glasses on the tip of her nose came walking of of a room connected to the one she walked into.

"Hello dear, im Mrs. Hiruko the secertary is there anything I can do for you?"

"Well I hope so. My name is Higurashi KagomeIm a new student and today's my first day."

"O ok i can help you, did you get a schedule yet?"

"Um no not yet."

"Ok then let me see what I can do for you."

The lady sat down at a her desk and started typing on the computer.

"Now how do you spell your last name again?"

Then after a few minutes of odds and ends questions she finally handed her a piece of paper.

"Ok here is your schedule and let me see you have the same schedule as some one else in this schoolI could call him down and he could show you around the school, you know until you get settled."

"No that's okay I wouldn't want to make you go out of your way or anything."

"Nonsense dear here i'll call him down right now."
