Homecoming Court by Red Eclipse
Kagome sat staring at her replacement phone, she was glad she had that insurance that gave you a new phone if it was lost or stolen. Sighing she looked around the room. "Sango! Sango where'd you go? How'd you disappear like that?" She called out not seeing Sango where she had just been sitting.
"What Kagome?" Sango called from her room.
"How'd you disappear like that?"
"Your dead to the world whenever you look at that phone."
"Why are you brushing your hair, are you leaving I don't wanna leave. Inuyasha keeps following us and it's getting really annoying. A whole weeks passed since Naraku attacked us."
"Yeah and it's Friday night remember that dinner you promised Kikyo you'd go to?"
"Crap, no. I don't wanna go."
"Tough you promised Kikyo that both of us would be there on Wednesday, so we're both a little unhappy right now."
"Damn." Kagome went to her bag and looked for a dress. "Wow I actually have a dress in here! Eww."
"Stop messing around and put it on." Kagome grumbled. She put the dress on and stole a pair of black shoes from Sango's closet. Then she went to the living room with a bottle of black nail polish. Sango walked out and saw Kagome in a black tango dress and she was doing her nails. "Wow are you okay? Do you have a fever?" Sango rushed over and put her hand on Kagome's forehead.
"Yes I'm fine. I have a dress on and I'm putting nail polish on, I'm a little scared but that's it."
"Hey are those my shoes."
"Yes."
"Thanks for asking."
"Your welcome. Hey stop glaring at me. I didn't bring any sandals.'
"But somehow you managed to bring a dress?"
"How about that?"
"Hey Ayame, why are you waiting out here?" Kagome walked over to the girl who was standing outside the restaurant.
"I didn't want to go in alone. Only Kagura, Kikyo and Kouga are in there."
"It's not too late to run away Sango." Kagome begged.
"For the last time no, you're the one who told Kikyo we were definitely going so this is what you get." Sango stuck her tongue out at her.
"I'll make pun like thing." Kagome threatened.
"No!"
"I was staring at the board, because I was bored." Kagome said.
'That was the worst attempted pun I've ever heard you say."
"That was pretty lame Kagome." Ayame walked toward the door wit Sango. Kagome stood and stared at the ground.
"everyone's so mean and abusive toward me." Sniff Sniff.
"Hello Kagome so glad you could come!" Kikyo came rushing toward her. "Hello Sango and Ayame! You all made it I'm so glad! I was hoping to see you all tonight."
"Hi Kikyo, couldn't wait to come!" Kagome faked perfectly.
"Lets see now we're missing Hojo, Hiten and Inuyasha. Hojo and Hiten said they'd come, but Inuyasha just brushed me off whenever I asked."
"He's always like that." Kagome said. Kikyo lifted an eyebrow. 'So my suspicions are true, they are an item.' Kikyo thought to herself, 'Now I know the perfect way to break Kagome chances of winning.' Kikyo smiled and sat back down next to Kouga. Inuyasha came in a few minutes later and Kikyo ran up to meet him. She rubbed up against him, "Hello, Inu!"
"I'm Inuyasha. not 'Inu'." He growled trying to remove himself form her grip.
"Oh I'm sorry, Inuyasha, I'm so glad you could make it." She started playing with his hair. Kouga was glowering in his seat, glaring at Kikyo. She continued playing with his hair and rubbing up against him. Kagome whispered something to Sango and they started cracking up.
"uh I'm gonna sit. down. now."
"Of course Inu-kun." He watch her sit down at the end of the table by Kouga and picked the farthest possible seat from her across from Sango.
"Hey Inuyasha it looks like Kikyo really likes you." Kagome burst out laughing at his red face.
"Shut up girl." Their attention turned to Kikyo and Kouga who had started arguing.
"Why do you always have to flirt with random guys?" He yelled. Kikyo looked up scared of losing the frontrunner for homecoming king as her boyfriend, she stood up and hugged him.
"I wasn't flirting Kouga baby. I love you."
"Get off me. You always flirt. You know what, try and get your votes without me! I know that's why your going out with me, for the votes."
"What are you saying?"
"You know damn well what I'm saying, I'm breaking up with you!" Kikyo stared at the rest of the group around the table.
"Excuse me a moment please." She ran off crying. Kagome stood up to follow her.
"What are you doing?" Sango asked.
"That was harsh, I feel bad for her." Kagome walked off toward the bathroom. She opened the door to a bathroom with marble counters. Kikyo was sitting on the ground, crying. "Kikyo?"
"Oh Kagome. I'm fine don't worry about me."
"Are you sure your okay?" Kagome handed her a tissue from a box on the counter and sat next to her.
"Why did you come in here? I haven't been very real the past week."
"I don't really expect you to, I mean you want to be home coming queen."
"Yeah, my mother was homecoming queen before me, and so was her mother. So I guess it kinda like a tradition with the females in my family."
"I'm sure you stand a really good chance of winning. Do you wanna go back?"
"I guess." Kagome extended her hand out to her. Kikyo checked herself in the mirror and walked out with Kagome. When they returned to the table Kouga had moved down next to Inuyasha. Feeling even worse for her, Kagome sat next to Kikyo, and made eye contact with Sango, who pretended to be suddenly interested in the table cloth.
"How many thread count do you think this is Ayame?" She asked.
"Oh I don't know fifty?" Ayame followed her lead. Kikyo glared at Kouga. Kagura was now flirting with him, trying to destroy Kikyo's chance of winning. Kagome was very uncomfortable with the whole situation, 'This is worse than the Naraku thing.' She thought.
After the waiter took their orders Kagome prayed she hadn't just ordered snails, this being a French restaurant. The night went on without much change for a while. Kagome noticed a silver car drive by the window. Her first reaction was a scream, "Ahhhhhhhhhhh! Shit silver car, sliver car, silver car, silver car!" She ran off toward the bathroom. Sango ran after her and Inuyasha jumped up and ran out the front doors, "Naraku!" He shouted.
"That was unusual." Kikyo muttered. Watching the three go off in different directions.
Sango found Kagome wedged under the counter in the bathroom. Not really that scared she hopped up on the counter and pulled a letter out of her purse.
"What's that?" Kagome asked poking her head out from under the counter.
"A letter."
"From who?"
"Shh, I'm trying to read here." Kagome scrunched her nose at Sango.
Dearest Sango,
I cannot apologize enough to you. I know you miss the old times as much as I do. I miss you more then I could have ever comprehended. Kagome gave me a scrapbook with pictures from when we were always together, could you tell her I love it. Your picture graces every page I turned to. I go to sleep thinking of you and you're the first thought I have in the morning. The thought of those happy times are only a few steps away from haunting my every step and every breath of the day. Now that I've been in here I realize what I left behind is much more valuable than anything I could put in my system.
So how are you my dear? I hope this finds you in good health and a happy heart. This place is pretty nice. There's a high definition T.V in every room, and a D.V.D collection that consists of movies still in the theaters. There's also a satellite. The foods pretty good too, although it nothing like the total eclipse of the sun when Kagome cooked breakfast. I really didn't know my little sister had it in her. I hope everyone is safe and happy at home.
Thinking of you always and forever with all my heart,
Miroku
Sango grabbed a tissue from behind her and sniffed. "Oh now I know who that's from. lemme read, you get a letter from Miroku and your being a hog?!"
"He said he loves the scrapbook, and he misses all of us and hopes we're all safe and happy. The rest is to me." She said blowing her nose and putting the letter back in her purse.
"I wonder if that was Naraku in the silver car."
"Inuyasha ran outside when you screamed silver car." There was a knock on the door and Kikyo poked her head in the door.
"Inuyasha said it wasn't that kind of silver car. He said you'd understand what it that statement means." She said. "Sango are you okay?"
"Yeah I'm fine." They walked out toward the table. Inuyasha looked at Kagome and shrugged. She walked over to Kikyo, "I think Sango needs to go home, sorry, she's getting kind of emotional. Thank you for inviting us. Can we cancel our food or.."
"Don't worry about that." Kikyo interrupted. "I'll take care of it. Thank you so much for coming."
"Good night." Kagome said hugging Kikyo, Ayame, and Kagura trying to be friendly.
"Night." Kikyo mumbled walking out the door with them. Inuyasha stood up and dropped the money for his food. He excused himself to the bathroom and skillfully snuck out unnoticed.
Naraku was in the car. The car was waiting for it's victim, but not Kagome. He needed someone to work from the inside. "Sesshoumaru, where are the files you got from the spy on the school's campus?" He barked at the driver of the awaiting silver car.
"Right here Naraku." He handed over the file. "She an ambitious girl, she'll do perfectly."
"I'm the judge of that you insolent dog!" Naraku yelled snatching the file. "Hmm, she wants to be homecoming queen huh, The perfect bait anyway." Kagura walked toward the bus stop unaware she was being watched. A silver car stopped next to her, and the window rolled down "Kagura Wazuki you wish to be homecoming queen correct?"
"Duh you dumb ass." She growled looking into the car.
"That can be arranged and so can the fall of the one you hate most. Kikyo." She growled when he said the name.
"Want do you want you freak?" Naraku laughed.
"All you have to do is join me and destroy that Higurashi girl, then we'll arrange for the fall of the other girls." Kagura thought for a second.
"Who are you?"
"Naraku, I'm your new master. We can plan everything on the ride to your new home. " Kagura fell victim to his promises and stepped into the car.
"Well that was an interesting evening wasn't it?" Kagome called out from the bathroom already changing out of the dress. There was a knock on the door.
"Inuyasha? What are you here for?" Sango asked.
"Naraku was spotted." He said.
"What?" Sango shouted.
"What's wrong." Kagome came back into the room.
"Naraku may come here. So I'm staying here." He said sitting down by the window.
"Oh great so we're graced by your presence now?" Kagome said thrilled.
"Yeah stop whining."
Kagome woke up in the middle of the night. She got up and went to the back yard. She knew it was stupid to go out there, but there was so much tension and hot air in the room. The moon was shinning She really missed Miroku. She had no idea what had happened to Souta, she hadn't seen him in a few days, that was just as well, she was likely to rip his voice box out if she saw him. It was really all his fault that all this happened.
"What are you doing you idiot?" Inuyasha sounded tired.
"Looking at the moon." She pointed upward, "It's like beckon of light for those who don't know what to do any more."
"You think you don't know what to do?" She looked up at him as he spoke, he wasn't asking a question. "You have to stay alive and not give up." She stayed silent and started humming to herself. Inuyasha sat next to her on the porch. "It's a nice night I don't blame you."
"Inuyasha, what did Naraku do to you?" He looked at her. She was being sincere, he saw it in her eyes.
"He tricked me into selling drugs to my friends when I was ten. He put the drugs in candy bars and told me to sell them and to give him the money and then he gave me a monthly paycheck. All over my school kids were pawing at me for more of the candy bars, they started to buy them by the bulk. When I finally realized what was happening it was too late I was stuck, and all those kids were addicted to Marijuana because of me. Soon Naraku stepped up the drug and I was selling it without the candy bars." Kagome was shocked.
"That's horrible."
"When I got out of it, my step brother took my place and became Naraku's right hand man. I decided to associate myself with some of there best customers."
"I'm sorry Inuyasha." She said sadly, something flickered through her and she looked up at him differently. "Inuyasha, thank you for protecting me from all of this." He stared at her. She was looking up at the moon, she looked like she was waiting for it to tell her something. 'Naraku can't get to her.' He thought to himself, 'She's too special.' She walked toward the door. "Good Night." She said.
"Night." he mumbled closing her eyes.
A/N- I promised I have these chapters back up by the weekend. I just finished all the standardized tests I had been worrying about. I'm in eighth grade and I had to take a history exit exam with everything from sixth, seventh, and this years history. Then the other thing I was worried about was the math test, I took the algebra 1 test instead of the general math one. ( there was this annoying girl that I threw my pencil at because she had the general math test since she's in pre- algebra, and she was done so she was clicking those annoying squared off on her desk. She pissed me off so I just chucked one of the extra pencils from my back pack at her, she was glaring at me the rest of the testing period and during the other periods I have her in.). Oh and I also have a B in Algebra CD! I finally raised that stupid 79.81% up to a 81.97%, if I can get it up just ten percent more, like getting an A on the chapter test from Friday or at least a B, Then I'll be guaranteed to get into geometry next year. Crossing my fingers. Thanks for reading, review and read the next chapter that's should be up. Bye.
