A/N: Hey Pearl here long time no see! Anyways hope you guys like my new writing style. This is gonna be a different story, not like all my other ones. When you see this blah blah blah then a character is thinking. HAVE FUN READING! Now on with the fic. Oh and for a scene change it'll be this: "xxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

A dark figure was moving through a shrine's residence early in the morning. It was going from shadow to shadow, flinching at every noise it made. It crept down the steps into the family room of the house, being very careful not to wake up the sleeping lump on the couch. It looked around, thinking it was clear, the creature hurried into the pitch black kitchen, smacking right into a table. Then an elderly man jumped up from the sofa and bashed the intruder over the head with a frying pan.

"OUCH! Grandpa!" The figure turned around furiously to greet its attacker.

Grandpa' switched the light, and on lowered his 'weapon'. "Oh, Raiku, its just you. I thought you were a robber."

"That's no reason to smack me with a frying pan!" She retorted.

"Well don't sneak on me, you know I don't like it!" Grandpa yelled as he walked into the kitchen.

"Fine, whatever, but you have to stop watching COPS!" Raiku yelled as she walked to the fridge and grabbed the orange juice.

Hi, my name is Raiku Sabura. The old senile fart is grandpa. Well he isn't really my grandpa, I just call him that. He found me on the steps of the shrine on the night of August second. Actually today is the 15th anniversary of that day, so I'm turning 15!

"Raiku, don't drink from the carton." Grandpa said. Even though his back was turned, he new her well enough to know she was just a little to lazy to get a glass.

Raiku stopped in mid-swallow and glared. Then she placed the carton back and slammed the door.

"Fine whatever," Raiku turned to leave the kitchen then remembered something. She wasn't wearing her new uniform. "Gramps have you seen my uniform?"

Grandpa turned from the stove and thought for a moment. "Your new one?"

"Duh! The new one for my new high school, its green, and the top looks sailor like!"

"Oooooh! That one! Um I think it's in the dishwasher."

"The dishwasher! Why in the freakin' world is it in there!"

"Well it needed to be clean….and besides we don't have a washing machine." Grandpa pretended like it was no big deal and went back to making Raiku's breakfast sandwich.

Raiku glared daggers at her grandpa's back and stormed over to the dishwasher.

"It better not be ruined. I'd really like to make a good impression on this new fancy private school." Raiku pulled it out of the dishwasher and shook it. "Phew, its okay."

"See nothing happened to it." Grandpa said smiling.

Raiku turned and headed out of the kitchen. "Yeah, but now I have to dry and iron it. Thanks to you I might be late!" She yelled back.

Grandpa wiped of his hands and yelled up the stairs. "But thanks to me you have a clean uniform!" He waited for a reply and when none came he smiled and whispered, "I win!"

Raiku heard her grandpa clear as day from her bedroom, but didn't feel like saying so. Letting him win this one time wouldn't hurt she thought, besides she had to iron her uniform. Using precious time arguing won't help. Raiku laid out the uniform on her desk and got out the iron, and ironing board then moved each piece of the uniform onto the board and began her work.

Fifteen minutes later

"Done!" Raiku admired her work, and then changed quickly. Ran back to the kitchen grabbed her lunch and breakfast sandwich, and ran out the door. Then swiftly came back kissed her waiting grandpa on the cheek and ran back out the door. "See 'ya Gramps!"

" Good bye Musume! (A/N: my daughter) Oh and uh make good choices!" Grandpa watched as Raiku ran towards the bus stop. She's getting faster. Perhaps…no it's to early. Is it? Grandpa sighed and went back into the house to complete the numerous tasks he had for today.

I've been home schooled for the first 14 years of my life, but that's only because there were no schools close to the shrine. But now that I'm 15, he says I can go somewhere farther from home. I don't like wearing a uniform, but I guess they're okay. Anyway, Gramps says that going to a private school will make me smarter and give me things that he could never give me. I don't know what he means though, because he taught me everything, from judo to sword fighting, and from meditation to yoga. He has trained me in every 'art' imaginable even how to paint. I doubt this school can top that. But I guess I'll just have to find out.

"Well here goes nothing" Raiku stood at the gates of the school and looked at the big building. "No time to chicken out." Deep breaths, just take deep breaths. Gosh, my heart's goin' a mile a minute!

The teacher stood at the front of the classroom and motioned for Raiku to enter. "Class we have a new student today. Her name is Raiku Sabura, from the Sauna district. She's been home schooled, so I trust you'll show her how a real school works." The teacher smiled at her own remark and was pleased with the reaction it got because when she said 'home school', giggles and snickers seemed to bubble out everywhere.

Raiku was certainly not happy, not happy at all. God why did she have to say that? I hate this teacher already. She walked and stood next to the teacher.

"My name is Ms. Kyabetsu, but please call me Ms. Kya." She had long fingernails with that blinding bright holiday red nail polish. She was dressed like a teacher stuck in the 70's, she even had that oh so innocent smile going. She clasped her hands together and turned from Raiku to the class and back again.

"Oh, Raiku would you like to say a few things to the class, maybe something about yourself?" Ms. Kya motioned towards the class smiling mischievously.

Raiku froze and stared wide-eyed at the class then looked at Ms. Kya like she was crazy. Crappie the fish! She did not just say that!

Ms. Kya made a pushing jester with her hands. "Go on. They won't bite."

Yeah, but you might! "Uh… hi my name is Raiku Sabura and I'm honored to be at your school." How lame "Uh…I turned 15 today and-uh…its nice to meet you all!" As Raiku bent over she hit her head on the desk in front of her, and the class burst out laughing.

Ms. Kya was also amused but according to regulations she had to be sympathetic. She sighed and began 'the reprimanding'.

"Now, now class, that's no way to behave. Raiku would you like to go down to the nurse's?" Raiku shook her head. Its not that she didn't want to go, oh no, she really wanted to, but she didn't know were it was and she definatly didn't want one of the classmates to show her, she had her pride to protect.

"Okay then, please take a seat next to Yumi." One of Ms. Kay's long red nails pointed to the back of the class.

Raiku slowly walked towards her seat. Then a kid stuck out his foot and tripped her. Raiku went crashing to the floor, and the class began laughing all over again. Quickly recovering the things she dropped she rushed to her seat and buried her head not wanting to see the faces of her amused classmates nor the pleased look on her teacher's face.

"Finally, lunch time!"

As soon as the bell rang Raiku bounded outside to the nearest tree, and sat down and ripped open her lunch bag. She didn't have bento like the other students, but her grandpa makes the meanest international sandwiches around! It was one of he weird quirks. Today she had American egg salad sandwiches and potato salad. Raiku bit into the sandwich and squealed in delight.

"Um, excuse me?" Four shadows creep up Raiku and her tree causing her to look up. What now?

"Um, can we sit and eat with you?"

Raiku sorrowfully swallowed the heavenly bite and nodded. "Hey, I'm Raiku."

"Nice to meet you! I'm Kagome and this is, Yuka,"

"Hi."

"Ami,"

"Hello."

"And Yumi,"

"Yo!"

Raiku looked each one over and nodded as they sat down.

Yuka was first to talk. " Its just terrible what happened to you today in class!"

"Yeah," Yumi replied, "First you hit your head and then tripped on your way to your seat!"

"And then when the teacher called on you in social studies, you blanked and said three!" Ami added, giggling.

"It must have been a hard day for you," Kagome finished. "Especially on your birthday right?"

Raiku swallowed another bite of her sandwich and just stared at them.

Ami tilted her head, "What?"

Raiku shook her head trying to clear her mind. "You guys talk so fast it's scary!"

Each one of the girls took turns looking at each other and thinking over what Raiku just said. Yumi was about to reply when the bell rang, signaling that lunch was over and that the second half of torture was to begin.

A/N: So how was it? Good or bad? Sorry it was a little short. I couldn't remember Kagome's friends' names so I winged it. If you know their real names, please tell me! I'd love to know what you think of my new writing style. Or even if you think it's not different just make a comment. I'm open to any criticism that you have to offer 'cause I'm here to learn to write and serve your imagination. If you have any questions please ask!
