"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Kagome was throwing a fit in her room. It was really unusual for someone as kind and sweet as Kagome to be doing so, but this was a special occasion.
She had been in her room for five hours, throwing stuff around, screaming "WHY! WHY ME!" Her father was outside the door, as he had been for the past five hours. He knew about the engagement, but he had thought Kagome would understand. The marrying age for princesses was coming up, and if she didn't get married then, then she could never get married. (Just made it up)
Kagome was now lying on her bed, sobbing like there was no tomorrow. 'I'm too young to get married! And Prince Koga is so conceited, that talk down there went horrible! What am I supposed to do?'
Knock knock! Someone at the door interrupted Kagome's thoughts.
"GO AWAY!" she screamed.
"Umm… Kagome, it's me, Sango. I just came to see how you were doing." Sango said, her voice muffled from outside the door.
Kagome smiled slightly. Sango could cheer her up. "Come in!"
Sango tried to open the door, but found it locked. "Kagome? I think the door is locked."
Kagome looked at her door and realized she had bolted all twelve locks that closed the door. No way was her father going to kick the door down. She unlocked them and then opened the door to hug Sango. Then Kagome felt something behind Sango's back. It was hard, but caved when Kagome pushed on it.
She stepped away from Sango to see her grinning like a maniac. "Alright… what is that behind your back?" Kagome asked.
Sango pulled out from behind her back a large duffle bag. Kagome's eye widened, knowing exactly what she was thinking.
"No." was her flat out answer.
"Please Kagome, consider it! You can live at my house for awhile while my parents are gone! Come on, just for a few weeks or so. You can even go to my school!"
Kagome stopped at that. Sango knew very well that one of the things Kagome wanted most was to go to a public school with kids her age. Sango smiled at the look on Kagome's face.
"Then it's settled. Pack a few clothes, take a bit of Kinkyho's money and we are on our way!" Sango said enthusiastically.
Kagome smiled nervously, thinking, 'This can not turn out good. But… heck, what could possibly happen?' Kagome raised an eyebrow, thinking she had heard that some where else, but couldn't think of it. She shrugged it off. Her mind and Sango were right. Nothing was going to happen. Right?
"Ow!" Kagome screamed. Sango was doing her hair, and doing a very horrible job at that.
Sango's plan was that she would disguise Kagome as another maid in the mansion. They would leave at the end of Sango's shift, and walk the five blocks to Sango's house. If Kikyo questioned, they had a story ready.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! But gosh, you have thick hair!" Sango said. She finally pulled Kagome's hair through a pony tail holder and stood back to admire her work. Kagome had two pigtails high on her head, with two wisps of hair coming down. She had dressed her in an extra maid uniform, which was a blue and white sailor top with a blue skirt that had white frills on the bottom. She also had on knee socks and black heels. Sango smiled and said, "You look completely different. But still the same beautiful Kagome."
Kagome blushed and said, "Yeah, thanks, but now I have to pack. What should I take?"
Sango shrugged. "I don't know. Like I said, take a few pairs of clothes and some one Kinkyho's money. That means you can buy new clothes. And I know for sure that you have some extra money stashed somewhere. Don't worry about it."
Kagome turned to her closet. She knew that practically nothing in there passed for punk, but she would manage.
About an hour later, she picked out a pair of jeans with a red belt, a grey pleated skirt, a shirt that was blue with an English flag on it, a red skirt that was layered and was chopped off mid thing at a slant, a shirt/vest combination that went with a denim skirt, and her pajama's, which was a pink shirt that said 'Candy' on it and some yellow sweat pants. She also packed the clothes that Kaede had given her earlier. She also put about 2,000 dollars in her purse. Sango had practically had a spaz attack when she saw the amount of money she had. Kagome told her to be quiet and she would give her 200 of it. Sango went real quiet after that.
Soon, they were on their way. But Sango turned around suddenly and said to Kagome, "Your necklace. Everyone in the mansion knows you got it from your mother and would never let any one touch it."
Kagome's hand flew up to her neck. She said fiercely, "There is no way in hell that I am leaving with out this necklace."
Sango's eyes widened and she stepped away from Kagome. Kagome rarely cussed. When she did, she was being dead serious.
Kagome just tucked the necklace into her shirt and continued on her way, head held high. Sango cautiously followed her.
They went on for a few minutes, almost reaching the front doors. But then a voice came from behind them.
"Going somewhere, maids?" Koga said. Kagome and Sango turned around really quickly, startled at the sound of someone's voice. Kagome's eyes widened, and she stepped behind Sango.
Koga laughed mockingly. "No need to be afraid of me, maid. I won't hurt you… much. That is, unless you enjoy a good fuck. If not, then be afraid."
Kagome gasped. He continued on, laughing still.
Sango turned around, getting scared for her friend. "Did you hear that?"
Kagome nodded. "I can't believe it. He doesn't know me, or so he thinks, and then he harasses me! I don't even want to know what he would do to me if I married him." She shuddered and Sango put her arm around her shaking shoulders. She smiled slightly, trying to cheer Kagome up.
"Relax. That means that he didn't recognize you! And that also means that any one else will recognize you from here on out! Now, let's go."
And just like that, Kagome was free.
