Homecoming Court By: Red Eclipse
Sango woke up in the middle of the night confused. Kagome was laying flat on her back staring at the ceiling, Inuyasha was sitting cross legged in the corner, and they were in Miroku's room. "Umm what the hell?" She mumbled.
"we're waiting for my mom." Kagome said not looking away from the ceiling.
"Uh why?" She asked confused still.
"We were attacked in the middle of the night." Sango lifted an eyebrow.
"Oh."
"Just go back to sleep. Everything fine now." Kagome said. "Didn't I tell you to leave Inuyasha? Why are you still sitting there?"
"You never told me why you were crying." Inuyasha looked up.
"Why should I tell you? Why haven't you left?"
"I told I wasn't going to. Now why were you crying?"
"And I said I didn't want to tell you."
"This isn't gonna work."
"Then leave."
"Your not letting me help you."
"Why do you want to help?" Inuyasha knew exactly why. Wherever Kagome was Naraku would strike. If Inuyasha was near her then he could find Naraku.
"I don't know, I hate Naraku I guess." He shrugged. Kagome scoffed and continued staring at the ceiling.
"What time are you taking Miroku?" she asked after a pause.
"Uh what time is it now?"
"seven."
"3 hours."
"... Where the hell is my mom?" Kagome stood up and left the room. She winced walking into the living room. The door broken down, blood in the hall, window glass all over the floor. "Inuyasha what the hell!"
"What?" He ran out.
"What did you do?"
"Three men were attacking the house, I beat the crap of them."
"But look at the house."
"You might want to go to someone else's house for awhile, since Naraku knows where you are." Kagome collapsed to the ground.
"This sucks." she said. He nodded.
"WHAT THE HELL!" Sango appeared at the doorway.
"Naraku attacked the house last night." Inuyasha answered looking out a broken window.
"Kagome your staying at my house." Sango said quickly. Kagome rolled her eyes and went to wake Miroku up.
"Might as well let everyone in the house get the shock out of their system." She said walking into his room.
"I didn't know you had it in you sis." Miroku looked at Kagome at the stove.
"Shut up." She said throwing an egg in his direction.
"Hey watch it you almost go me!" Sango whined.
"Damn almost." Kagome teased.
"It's 9 we better hurry." Inuyasha said impatiently.
"Calm down, He's all packed." Kagome bitched flicking egg shell at him.
"Hey! I'm not armed." He grabbed egg from his plate.
"No... no!, that's greasy. Noo!" She ran through the living room and locked herself in Miroku's room. "Go away!" She screamed as he pounded on the door.
"No come out you chicken. It's just a little egg."
"It has butter on it. No. Go away!"
"Inuyasha let Kagome out so she can pack! And stop making pun like things!" Sango yelled form the kitchen. "We want her out of here remember?" Inuyasha grumbled. Kagome stuck her tongue out at him as she came out. He flung the egg anyway.
"My finger slipped."
Soon Kagome had packed, and Miroku's bags were in the car trunk. They all piled into Inuyasha's car. Miroku sat by Sango in the back seat and Kagome was stuck in the front street. "Keep on the look out for the cars you saw yesterday and last night Kagome." Inuyasha said. She grumbled.
Sango slumped her head against the window. Miroku was next to her, but it was a completely different one from the Miroku she grew up with. The question remained in her head; Why had Miroku turned to drugs? There was no answer Sango could think of. He was just different. She felt a hand on her shoulder. She looked up and saw Miroku's hand on her shoulder. He looked sad, he was sharing the same memories she was. She looked at him, he was still extremely weak. Breathing hard still, but he was slightly functioning today. "I'm sorry Sango." he said inhaling sharply. Sango smiled weakly at him, not knowing what to say.
The street went by in a blur. The drive was a good fifteen minutes on a freeway, but it felt longer as the silence in the car intensified. Kagome held the scrapbook in her lap. Pictures from the 'good old days' before Miroku turned to Heroin were spread throughout the pages. Kagome made sure Sango was in a good deal of the pictures, but there was a picture of Miroku and Kagome at their 8th birthday in the back. Inuyasha pulled off the freeway. Soon a tall red brick building came into view. Everyone grew even quieter, if that was possible. The car pulled into a parking lot, when Inuyasha parked everyone slowly looked around and got out. Sango tried to hold Miroku up, but he started to fall. "I'll take him. You two take his bags." Inuyasha ran from the trunk. grabbing Miroku. Slowly the three got Miroku into the clinic.
"Hello are you a registering resident or are you expected?" A nurse asked.
"I called last night, this is Miroku Higurashi." Inuyasha said.
"Aw yes here, family is present correct?"
"Yes." Kagome said tentatively.
"Name and relation to patient." The nurse took out a form.
"Kagome Higurashi, sister."
"Okay finish this form and come to the window. I'll inform the doctor you're here."
"Thank you." Kagome sat down with the form, age of patient, length of use, reason for using Heroin? She turned to Miroku not knowing the answers to most of the questions. He took the form and finished it for her.
"Hello Miss. Higurashi, is your brother ready to enter now?" The doctor asked when the nurse handed him the form.
"Yeah he's ready."
"Hello Miroku." the doctor offered his hand to help him up. They made their way toward a wing with many rooms.
"It's nice. Isn't it?" Kagome tried to stay positive for Miroku. looking at the pale blue walls, there was a small bed in the corner with matching blue sheets. There were a few arm chairs in the room in front of a medium sized television.
"The bathroom is just across the hall. You understand. Many of the patients sit out in the lobby. Meals are served in the dining hall, and since you are still in school you will receive lessons and work once you begin to stabilize."
"How soon will he be able to return home?" Sango asked.
"The amount of time for recovery varies. Some people take years, There are some who start to stabilize right away but don't start recovering for months. Some only take a month so it varies." Sango looked down at the ground.
"Patients have phone privileges in addition to being able to write letters. You can also phone and write to him while he is here, but visiting in person isn't allowed until he begins to stabilize. I'll leave you alone for a while so you can talk." The doctor left. Miroku sat on the bed and stared.
"Thank you guys for taking me here. I promise I won't let anyone down." Miroku said.
"Don't worry about us, just concentrate on getting better. We're all supporting you." Kagome sat next to him and hugged him.
"Yeah Miroku we'll all wait till you get better. We'll all write and call all the time till your better. And then we'll celebrate at some fancy stupid restraunt right after you get out." Sango said.
"Thanks girls. Could I have a moment alone to speak with Inuyasha?" They both looked at each other and shrugged. Kagome and Sango walked out into the hall. Kagome pressed her ear against the wall trying to hear.
"Can you hear anything?" Sango whispered.
"Damn, these doors are too thick I can't hear anything." Kagome pouted.
"Inuyasha, Naraku came last night right?" Miroku asked.
"Yeah, it's weird, he usually never actually enters a house this early. Something's different this time." Inuyasha sat in an arm chair.
"Will you make sure Kagome's okay/"
"That's no problem, wherever she is Naraku will attack there. And I want that scum bags blood."
"Okay, as long as Kagome's okay. And Sango do you think Sango's in any danger?" He asked.
"She shouldn't be, but since Kagome's staying there since Naraku targeted the house specifically, I'll watch them both. Don't worry man. Naraku will be dead once I find him."
"Good, have you found anything that would point to where he's hiding?"
"No, but he's wounded. He's operating through payphones and a middleman. This will be easy. If I locate and destroy Sesshoumaru the whole system falls." Inuyasha smiled.
"Just don't turn your back on the girls Inuyasha, you have to have promise me they'll be okay."
"They'll be fine, I promise. Now stop asking or I won't." Miroku smiled knowing Inuyasha was falsely threatening.
Monday morning
Kikyo sighed looking down at the list in front of her. Kouga took it from her and read it. Kouga was the front runner for homecoming king so Kikyo was associating herself with him. "Okay so we're inviting Kagura, Kagome, Ayame...Inuyasha? Why Inuyasha?" He asked
"Well we need a little more eye candy I think. And Inuyasha is very cute." Kikyo smiled, hugging his arm. "Don't worry I think your cuter. His hair is to long for him to be cuter than you." At that moment Kagome walked into the classroom and sat down at a desk, placing her head down. It was incredibly hard for her to sleep at Sango's house. And everyone around her was trying to hide their depression. Kikyo walked over to Kagome.
"Hello Kagome, Oh my god you didn't sleep well did you?" She exclaimed when she saw the rings under Kagome's eyes. "Anyway Kouga and I are having a special dinner at The Blue Cabot, and we would like you to join us."
"Only if Sango's can come, I'm temporarily out of a car." Kagome said.
"Of course she can come, I wouldn't think of not inviting her. The other 12th grade nominees are coming also. Heres an invitation, can't wait to see you there. Bye Kagome dear." Kagome continued sleeping on her desk until class began. By then a brown haired girl had sat next to her. First period was the only class Kagome didn't have with Sango.
"Hi I'm Ayame, your Kagome huh?" The cheery girls said, she had shockingly green eyes.
"Hi." Kagome said.
"Wow I can see why you were nominated, but I have no idea who would vote for me? I don't even have any friends."
"You're a nice girl I can tell. Hey would you like to go shopping after school, with me and a friend of mine. She's dragging me dress shopping against my will."
"I'd love to!"
"Great what do you have last period?"
"English language 4/5"
"So do I, meet me after then."
"Can't wait."
English language 4/5 was a required class. The teacher hated her job obviously so she gave them easy work. Often they wrote essays in both Japanese and English or translated chapters from English novels. Today the assignment was written right on the board: Translate English songs, one pair of headphones on every desk and one preset radio. Kagome loved this assignment. The radio station was recorded from LA and sent to the school. She sat down and put the head phones on. Kagome copied the lyrics and the title and the artist of the first song she heard on the paper quickly. Done for the day she wrote a note to Sango.
Hey Sango,
I told Ayame she could go shopping with us after school. That's okay right?
Kagome
It took a while but she got a response.
Kag,
Which one is Ayame?
Sango
Kagome rolled her eyes and saw the teacher was asleep at her desk. So she turned around. "Hey Sango." She said.
"Which one is she?"
"The only girl with green eyes and brown hair at the school."
"Oh sure, I don't care. I've never met her before."
"She seems nice."
"Has your mom come home yet?"
"Yeah she left a message on my new phone this afternoon. She's very pissed, and very confused."
"Well she comes home and her son's in a methadone clinic, her daughter's left a note that she's staying at a friends house and not the mention the state the house is in. Where is she staying?"
"With my Grandpa a couple towns over."
"I thought the shrine was your grandfather's"
"It is, but he left for some reason, I have no idea where he is."
"Oh, damn I hate this class, it takes forever to end."
"Yeah, but it has to end sometime. Look only a half hour left and the teachers passed out."
"Hello Kagome Hello Sango. Kikyou told me to give you your invitation Sango. Kikyo already gave you yours right Kagome?" Kouga came up from somewhere in the classroom.
"Yes, she gave it to me this morning."
"Good are you going?"
"I'm not sure yet."
"What about you Sango are you joining us?"
"I'll get back to you on that." Sango said, trying to hide her annoyance.
"Do either of you know what class Inuyasha is in, Kikyo wants him to come."
"He's in this class actually." Sango said.
"Really?" He asked.
"Yeah he's asleep like the teacher. Oh, just put it by him, don't try to wake him up. Never wake him up at school."
"Okay thank you. Hope to see you both." Kouga walked away and made his way toward the back of the class room.
"You should have told him to wake Inuyasha up, maybe he would have taken that annoying guy's hand off." Kagome said, they started laughing as Kouga cautiously place the envelope by Inuyasha and ran away like a coward when Inuyasha moved his head.
"What is this?" Sango asked holding up the envelope.
"Some stupid dinner Kikyo and Kouga are throwing." Sango moaned.
"one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen."
"Kagome what are you doing?" Sango asked annoyed. Ayame walked over to them.
"What wrong with her?" She asked Sango.
"fifteen three. Dammit you screwed me up."
"What were you counting?" Sango asked.
"The dots on the ceiling." Sango rolled her eyes and pushed Ayame down the rows.
"Maybe if we walk away really slowly she won't notice we're leaving without her." she whispered as they crept down the hall.
"Hey you jerks, wait for me! You're the one dragging me Sango!" Inuyasha waited till they left to gather his things and stalked them to the door. He sat in his car and waited for all three girls to get in the car.
"Um we're being followed by a car." Ayame said from the back seat. They had played rock paper scissors to decide who got the front seat.
"What color is it?" Sango and Kagome both said quickly.
"Black." They both exhaled.
"That's okay he's been following us." Kagome said.
"Who is he?"
"My brother's friend, if you see any Silver cars then that's bad, but the black car is just annoying."
"oh, does he like you or something?"
"No, its a long story."
"We're here." Sango said in a sing songy voice.
"That is a disturbing noise Sango. And you call me insane. You guys go ahead, I'm gonna go yell at the guy in the black car." Kagome started walking over to the car that had parked a few spaces behind Sango's car. "Inuyasha stop following me." She whined. "What exactly did Miroku guilt you with? You must have done something horrible."
"Wherever you are Naraku is bound to attack, and I'm gonna kill that son of a bitch. Besides what would have happened if those guys from Friday night had found you hiding in Miroku's room?"
"I would have smacked them in the head with the staff I was holding, I could at least made one blanch. I'm not that weak."
"It was a decorative staff it would have broken over the first guys head. Then what would you do, If you ran you would have left Sango and Miroku alone and open to attack. What could you do?"
"Fine you saved my ass Friday night, thank you alright now stop following me."
"Can't I already told you wherever you are Naraku will strike. And I've been searching for him." Kagome rolled her eyes and walked toward the entrance where Sango and Ayame were waiting. He started following her.
"Hey don't follow me, go home!" she protested.
"No. I'm going dress shopping."
"That is very disturbing. Thanks for that troubling image."
"Your welcome, Now lets go dress shopping." He saw her annoyance and started skipping toward the entrance.
"Sango I'm waiting in the car." she yelled as she got near the entrance.
"No your not, look Inuyasha's so excited about dress shopping, I say we get him a frilly lavender dress, that'll go with his violet eyes and black hair. Won't he look lovely?" Inuyasha's eyes bugged.
"Oh yes he'll look lovely won't he Ayame?" Kagome smiled evilly at Inuyasha.
"Oh every girl will be jealous of his beauty. He'll be attacked by all the guys for dates." Ayame laughed.
"And most importantly he'll be homecoming Queen!" Kagome shouted.
"Where do you think your going we have to buy your dress Inuyasha!" Sango shouted at the retreating Inuyasha.
"Okay lets go before he comes back." Kagome pushed Sango and Ayame into the doors.
"Oh my gawd! That dress is so cute on you Kagome!" Sango shouted when Kagome came out of the dressing room, in a one sleeved yellow dress.
"Yeah I'm done!" Kagome shouted running to take the dress off. And went to buy it.
"Ayame what about you? What are you trying on in there?" Sango shouted through the other dressing room door.
"Uh just a second." The door opened and she stepped out in a lime green sleeveless floor length gown.
"Oh that looks so nice on you Ayame." Sango cooed. Ayame walked to the mirror and looked at herself.
"Oh you look like the perfect homecoming queen Ayame!" Kagome appeared her dress in a bag. Ayame smiled.
"Thank you, but I know I won't win. You have to be pretty and popular. I'm not either of those things so..."
"Of course you'll win. You're the most deserving one."
"What about you?"
"I don't want to wear a dress." Ayame laughed at her answer. "Lets go eat." Kagome smiled at Sango. Inuyasha was watching from a sunglass hut across from the store, waiting for them to leave the store.
"Are you going to buy something soon, or just stand there looking out the window because your scaring the customers." The clerk glared at him.
"Uh sorry I was just leaving." He said stumbling out the door.
A/N- Damn my parents are back, oh well practice your R&R! Read and Review! Bye. Do they sound too happy at the end or is that just me?
A/N- My mom and dad are annoying me, they keep walking in and yelling at me about cleaning my room. So right now their getting pizza, so woo hoo I can write! Bye thanks for reading!
Homecoming Court By: Red Eclipse
Sango woke up in the middle of the night confused. Kagome was laying flat on her back staring at the ceiling, Inuyasha was sitting cross legged in the corner, and they were in Miroku's room. "Umm what the hell?" She mumbled.
"we're waiting for my mom." Kagome said not looking away from the ceiling.
"Uh why?" She asked confused still.
"We were attacked in the middle of the night." Sango lifted an eyebrow.
"Oh."
"Just go back to sleep. Everything fine now." Kagome said. "Didn't I tell you to leave Inuyasha? Why are you still sitting there?"
"You never told me why you were crying." Inuyasha looked up.
"Why should I tell you? Why haven't you left?"
"I told I wasn't going to. Now why were you crying?"
"And I said I didn't want to tell you."
"This isn't gonna work."
"Then leave."
"Your not letting me help you."
"Why do you want to help?" Inuyasha knew exactly why. Wherever Kagome was Naraku would strike. If Inuyasha was near her then he could find Naraku.
"I don't know, I hate Naraku I guess." He shrugged. Kagome scoffed and continued staring at the ceiling.
"What time are you taking Miroku?" she asked after a pause.
"Uh what time is it now?"
"seven."
"3 hours."
"... Where the hell is my mom?" Kagome stood up and left the room. She winced walking into the living room. The door broken down, blood in the hall, window glass all over the floor. "Inuyasha what the hell!"
"What?" He ran out.
"What did you do?"
"Three men were attacking the house, I beat the crap of them."
"But look at the house."
"You might want to go to someone else's house for awhile, since Naraku knows where you are." Kagome collapsed to the ground.
"This sucks." she said. He nodded.
"WHAT THE HELL!" Sango appeared at the doorway.
"Naraku attacked the house last night." Inuyasha answered looking out a broken window.
"Kagome your staying at my house." Sango said quickly. Kagome rolled her eyes and went to wake Miroku up.
"Might as well let everyone in the house get the shock out of their system." She said walking into his room.
"I didn't know you had it in you sis." Miroku looked at Kagome at the stove.
"Shut up." She said throwing an egg in his direction.

"It is, but he left for some reason, I have no idea where he is."

"Hello Kagome Hello Sango. Kikyou told me to give you your invitation Sango. Kikyo already gave you yours right Kagome?" Kouga came up from somewhere in the classroom.
"Yes, she gave it to me this morning."
"Good are you going?"
"I'm not sure yet."
"What about you Sango are you joining us?"
"I'll get back to you on that." Sango said, trying to hide her annoyance.
"Do either of you know what class Inuyasha is in, Kikyo wants him to come."
"He's in this class actually." Sango said.
"Really?" He asked.
"Yeah he's asleep like the teacher. Oh, just put it by him, don't try to wake him up. Never wake him up at school."
"Okay thank you. Hope to see you both." Kouga walked away and made his way toward the back of the class room.
"You should have told him to wake Inuyasha up, maybe he would have taken that annoying guy's hand off." Kagome said, they started laughing as Kouga cautiously place the envelope by Inuyasha and ran away like a coward when Inuyasha moved his head.
"What is this?" Sango asked holding up the envelope.
"Some stupid dinner Kikyo and Kouga are throwing." Sango moaned.
"one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven, twelve, thirteen, fourteen."
"Kagome what are you doing?" Sango asked annoyed. Ayame walked over to them.
"What wrong with her?" She asked Sango.
"fifteen three. Dammit you screwed me up."
"What were you counting?" Sango asked.
"The dots on the ceiling." Sango rolled her eyes and pushed Ayame down the rows.
"Maybe if we walk away really slowly she won't notice we're leaving without her." she whispered as they crept down the hall.
"Hey you jerks, wait for me! You're the one dragging me Sango!" Inuyasha waited till they left to gather his things and stalked them to the door. He sat in his car and waited for all three girls to get in the car.
"Um we're being followed by a car." Ayame said from the back seat. They had played rock paper scissors to decide who got the front seat.
"What color is it?" Sango and Kagome both said quickly.
"Black." They both exhaled.
"That's okay he's been following us." Kagome said.
"Who is he?"
"My brother's friend, if you see any Silver cars then that's bad, but the black car is just annoying."
"oh, does he like you or something?"
"No, its a long story."
"We're here." Sango said in a sing songy voice.
"That is a disturbing noise Sango. And you call me insane. You guys go ahead, I'm gonna go yell at the guy in the black car." Kagome started walking over to the car that had parked a few spaces behind Sango's car. "Inuyasha stop following me." She whined. "What exactly did Miroku guilt you with? You must have done something horrible."
"Wherever you are Naraku is bound to attack, and I'm gonna kill that son of a bitch. Besides what would have happened if those guys from Friday night had found you hiding in Miroku's room?"
"I would have smacked them in the head with the staff I was holding, I could at least made one blanch. I'm not that weak."
"It was a decorative staff it would have broken over the first guys head. Then what would you do, If you ran you would have left Sango and Miroku alone and open to attack. What could you do?"
"Fine you saved my ass Friday night, thank you alright now stop following me."
"Can't I already told you wherever you are Naraku will strike. And I've been searching for him." Kagome rolled her eyes and walked toward the entrance where Sango and Ayame were waiting. He started following her.
"Hey don't follow me, go home!" she protested.
"No. I'm going dress shopping."
"That is very disturbing. Thanks for that troubling image."
"Your welcome, Now lets go dress shopping." He saw her annoyance and started skipping toward the entrance.
"Sango I'm waiting in the car." she yelled as she got near the entrance.
"No your not, look Inuyasha's so excited about dress shopping, I say we get him a frilly lavender dress, that'll go with his violet eyes and black hair. Won't he look lovely?" Inuyasha's eyes bugged.
"Oh yes he'll look lovely won't he Ayame?" Kagome smiled evilly at Inuyasha.
"Oh every girl will be jealous of his beauty. He'll be attacked by all the guys for dates." Ayame laughed.
"And most importantly he'll be homecoming Queen!" Kagome shouted.
"Where do you think your going we have to buy your dress Inuyasha!" Sango shouted at the retreating Inuyasha.
"Okay lets go before he comes back." Kagome pushed Sango and Ayame into the doors.
"Oh my gawd! That dress is so cute on you Kagome!" Sango shouted when Kagome came out of the dressing room, in a one sleeved yellow dress.
"Yeah I'm done!" Kagome shouted running to take the dress off. And went to buy it.
"Ayame what about you? What are you trying on in there?" Sango shouted through the other dressing room door.
"Uh just a second." The door opened and she stepped out in a lime green sleeveless floor length gown.
"Oh that looks so nice on you Ayame." Sango cooed. Ayame walked to the mirror and looked at herself.
"Oh you look like the perfect homecoming queen Ayame!" Kagome appeared her dress in a bag. Ayame smiled.
"Thank you, but I know I won't win. You have to be pretty and popular. I'm not either of those things so..."
"Of course you'll win. You're the most deserving one."
"What about you?"
"I don't want to wear a dress." Ayame laughed at her answer. "Lets go eat." Kagome smiled at Sango. Inuyasha was watching from a sunglass hut across from the store, waiting for them to leave the store.
"Are you going to buy something soon, or just stand there looking out the window because your scaring the customers." The clerk glared at him.
"Uh sorry I was just leaving." He said stumbling out the door.
