Chapter23!Chapter23!
Kagome recovery was going smoothly, or so Dr.Notashi said. She'd be able to go to her last four days of school in a wheelchair, if there was someone to help her to all her classes. And she'd be out of it in time for the wedding.
Inuyasha had tried to get her to postpone it, but she had refused. She had worked to hard to see it all go to pieces over this.
Houjo had, unfortunately, disappeared without a trace. His family had no idea where he was, and no one had seen him. there where wanted fliers everywhere, but nothing had come up. The cops said, most likely, nothing would.
Inuyasha was not happy.
It was the last day of school, first period. History with Inuyasha. Kelly wheeled Kagome into the classroom, to see him sitting on his desk, swinging his legs back and forth.
"Sit down everybody! Just cause it's the last day of school doesn't mean you can all just stand around and do what you want!" He yelled, forgetting his 'proper' teacher manner, and falling back on natural habits.
"Why not? We got nothing better to do in this class, we had finals yesterday!" A student yelled, as he was sitting down.
"Because I said so. Now sit down and shut up!"
"Mr.Inu? Mr.Inu?" A girl at the back of the class was waving her hand in the air, trying to get Inuyasha's attention, as the bell rang.
"What is it?"
"I was just wondering, why'd you become a history teacher?" The girl asked.
"Well," Inuyasha pondered his answer. "I just...know a lot about the past. I was interested in it when I went to school, so I just kind of landed in it."
"What's your favorite place and time period?" Lekusey Henta, asked.
"Why not ask Kagome? I bet she knows" Aya contributed. Kagome blushed.
"Okay, what is his favorite place and time period, Kagome?" Lekusey now asked her.
"Same as mine, feudal era, Japan"
"Is that right?"
"Yeah..." Inuyasha said, looking at Kagome strangely.
"Why's that?" Someone asked.
"My heritage can be tracked to that time period" Inuyasha said.
"Who?"
"Izayoi, Princess of Musashi" Inuyasha said, Kagome gasped slightly. His mother was a princess?
"Whoa. you're royalty? Cool!"
"I'm not royalty!" Inuyasha said, realizing to late his mistake.
"Yes you are, your great-great-great-great-great-grandmother was princess of Musashi right? That makes you royalty, Duh!"
"Don't duh the teacher!" Inuyasha yelled.
"You know, legend says, Izayoi married a Youkai, and a had a Hanyou child named Inuyasha." A boy in the back of the class said.
"Very good, Mr.?"
"Kiaki. But, just call me Fukachi"
A/N: Kiaki;; Weird Fukachi: mysterious.
"Okay, your correct. According to legend she married a Youkai, was shunned by her family, and had a Hanyou, named Inuyasha, whom I'm named after. the official story is, she married a man her father didn't approve of, and that caused her to be shunned." Inuyasha said.
"The official story?" Fukachi asked, raising his eyebrow. "That sounds like you don't believe it."
"Who said I did?"
"So, you believe that there is Youkai blood somewhere in your heritage?"
"Possibly" Inuyasha replied coolly. He and Fukachi had the attention of the entire class by now.
"Do you think there still around?"
"Do you?"
"Yes"
"Why?"
"I met one. I saw it in it's true form, and it was a wolf youkai. He made me promise not to say anything." The boy said.
"And you did anyway?"
In truth, Kagome was surprised at how light he was taking this, how natural it seemed. How much had he changed since she had known him?
"Humans have a right to know" He said, raising his chin defiantly.
"Who says?"
"What?" Fukachi asked.
"There aren't hurting humans. We don't even know they're there, if they're there. Why do humans need to know, so they can put them under a microscope? Try and give there strength, resilience, and powers to humans? And don't even say that wont happen, cause it would" Inuyasha said angrily. Kagome suddenly realized he may be losing his cool.
"That may be, but, they have the power to destroy us. I think we should at least, know about it."
"What makes you think they want to destroy us? If, there are any left, why would they kill us know? They've had plenty of chances in the past"
"Do you believe there still around?"
Inuyasha walked down the aisles between desks, till he was standing right in front of Fukachi's.
"See, when it comes to youkai, there are three questions you have to ask. One: Do you believe they ever existed? Yes. Two: do you believe that they really had so much power? Yes, I have read hundreds of accounts of youkai attacks, and the all speak of the same traits, strong sense of smell, good hearing, and resilience. Not to mention some of the power, all Youkai have different powers, like the fox-youkai fox-fire. And, Three: do you believe they still exist? And, the answer to that question, is in three other questions. One: do you believe humans could have killed them all? No. Two: do you believe they all could have died out? No. And Three: Do you Believe they would have let them selves be destroyed? No. so I believe you have your answer, Mr.Kiaki" Inuyasha said, with a finally that no one would dare question.
Kagome couldn't believe how he had just addressed that problem! He used logical things to get his point across! so different form what she used to know.
Inuyasha walked back to the front of the class.
"Anymore questions? I believe the bell is about to ring" He said.
Everyone was silent. It was the kind of silence you could tell, everyone was going to be talking about what had just transpired. How had it gotten from, 'favorite place, and time period?' to 'do youkai still exist?' Kagome wondered.
The bell rang. Everyone stood, and Inuyasha called out. "Mr.Kiaki? A word please"
Kagome and Kelly lingered in the class room. And the heard what he wanted to say.
"So, this Youkai you met. He was a wolf Youkai?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yes, he owns Wolf Construction out by the freeway." Fukachi responded.
"What's his name?"
"Kouga Wolf"
Gosh, I just love to leave you all hanging, it's just too much fun! Fu Fu Loves cliffies! (I know it sounds cruel, but I'm really I nice person!)
I know I kind of got away from the sorrow, and the seriousness for a chap, but I needed some laughter, and I found this chapter interesting to write. So here goes, hope you all like!
Kagome is still going through losing her baby, but she'll get over it I promise.
Okay, just to clarify, Inuyasha says, he's a descendent, of his mothers, and he was named after her son. I based the assumption that she was a princess on the fact she wore many layers of clothes in the episodes, and the more layer of clothes you where, the higher you are in the community.
So close! to 100 reviews! I'm still waiting for the winner!
Anyways, till next time! - The All Powerful Fu Fu!
I'm the all powerful Fu Fu!
Mwahahahaha!
