Chapter 12: Naraku and the Deafening Scream
"Sure." Kagome smiled as everybody started leaving.
It was Monday and sadly it was school. Kagome yawned as she got up and changed into her school uniform. She knew that she wouldn't see Inuyasha today because he and Kikyo have the Winter Festival to prepare for. It was their final year in High School and as every year, Inuyasha and Kikyo were king and queen of the Winter Festival.
Every year near Christmas the schools holds a Winter Festival. People can sign up to go skiing, or skating or go on an overnight camping trip on a Ski resort. This year Kagome, Sango and Miroku decided to go on the Camping trip. Kikyo and Inuyasha usually do something together on the Christmas dance and they start preparing two months before Christmas.
It was right now two weeks into November and it was starting to get chilly. Miroku was supposed to drop Souta off at school and take Kagome and Sango to school. Kagome hopped down the stairs to find Souta eating breakfast.
"Morning Souta." Kagome greeted.
"Yeah, yeah." Souta mumbled.
"What's wrong?" Kagome asked.
"Is Kim and Kikyo related?" Souta asked his sister.
Kagome coughed. "Um no. Where'd you get that stupid idea."
"Their last name."
Kagome giggled. "Oh silly, Hiro is Kim's lat name hai?"
"Yeah…"
"Kikyo's last name is Hiromi, but people cut it off to Hiro. They are no way related."
Souta sighed. "Thank god."
"Stupid little twerp." Kagome ruffled his hair as she went to eat breakfast. Korari was at work and Kagome had to pack their lunches.
A honking noise came and Souta rushed out. Kagome came out a few seconds later, locked the door and ran down the steps to meet Miroku and Sango.
"Hey Kagome, how was your birthday?" Miroku asked.
"It was cool. My grandmother gave me cookies." Kagome lied, not wanting to make something authentic at the moment.
"Cookies?" Miroku raised a brow.
"Cookies as a treat, she got some wicked new things from Feudal Japan thanks to my grandmother." Souta fibbed. He didn't want Miroku and Sango to catch onto the Sweetheart gig.
Miroku stared into Kagome's brown eyes and Sango noticed. She looked into Kagome's eyes and found that her eyes match Inuyasha's sweetheart's eyes 100 percent.
"Uh… yeah you two are freaking me out now." Kagome said as she inched closer to her brother.
"Just seeing that your eyes match Inuyasha's Sweethearts eyes. You do know we danced with her right?" Sango asked.
"I saw you guys on T.V." Kagome sighed.
"Are you sure?" Miroku asked.
"YES SHE'S SURE NOW DRIVE!" Souta roared hating all this confrontations about Sweetheart.
Kagome sent a look of gratitude to her brother and he smiled at her. This aroused more suspicion on Miroku and Sangos' end.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They arrived at school and Kagome yawned as she got out.
"You guys have spare first, I have Musical Theater." Kagome said.
"Musi- Kagome I've never heard you sing before." Miroku said.
"That's because I can't, I prefer dancing and acting." Kagome lied.
'I hate lying, but I have to…' Kagome thought sadly.
They entered the school and Miroku and Sango escorted Kagome to her first period class.
"I feel so royal." Kagome giggled.
"That you are Sweetheart." Miroku said. Kagome stopped breathing as she looked at Miroku. "Excuse me?"
Miroku shrugged. "If Inuyasha could have a Sweetheart, can I?"
"That's why you have Sango." Kagome muttered before entering her class. Sango looked at Miroku who frowned. She shrugged before they left.
Kagome took her seat, Inuyasha still wasn't there yet and Kagome was worried about Sango and Miroku.
'I think they're catching on.' She thought.
Just Inuyasha walked looking as cocky as ever.
"Hey Takahashi, wicked show Saturday. Your Sweetheart looked sexy." Screamed Shippo.
Inuyasha winked at Kagome who turned her head, still thinking about Miroku and Sango.
'They can't… I've kept it hidden for the past years, they can't figure it out.' She thought.
Inuyasha sat beside Kagome and smiled. "What's wrong?" He said quietly as the teacher walked in.
"I think Miroku and Sango are catching on."
Inuyasha frowned. "What?"
"I'll tell you on the phone later." Kagome said as the morning announcements came on.
"Good Morning Shikon High. We have a few announcements this morning. First of all, all the receipts for your payments for our Ski Resort trip are here. Please pick them up from the Guidance Office. Secondly, in two months time is our Winter Festival and the Ski Resort trip students leave two weeks before. We will be picking Winter King and Queen on the day of our Christmas dance. The nominations will be based on, the dresses of the Female, and for you ladies, your obsession with the boys… Mr. Takahashi"
Everybody sniggered as they looked at Inuyasha.
"On another note, we have Christmas Carols this year. Anybody can be nominated with a carol and they must sing it on Christmas dance day. We have open spots for 7 nominations. They will be announced a week before the dance starts. Ballots are available in the Musical Theater room. Write down the full name of the student, homeroom, and the Carol they should sing. We will draw 7 and announce them. Thank you and have a great day."
"I'm nominating Inuyasha." Souten called out. Everybody burst out laughing as Kaguya-sensei tried to quiet them down.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Miroku and Sango heard the announcement and share identical grins.
"Shall we?" Miroku asked.
"We shall." Sango laughed as they ran towards Musical Theater class.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Alright class, now we are going to be singing. Girls on right, boys on le-" But the teacher was cut off when Miroku and Sango came knocking on the door.
"Yes?" Kaguya-sensei said turning to the door.
"We would like to fill in ballots." Miroku said.
Kaguya sensei grinned. "Why certainly."
"I nominate Inuyasha." Sango said filling in a little card. She then grinned. "Singing Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer."
"Oh great Sango!" Inuyasha called.
"I nominate…" Miroku pretend to think.
"Kagome for Carol of the Bells." Miroku smirked as he wrote down his nomination on the card.
"Houshi you die tonight." Kagome growled.
"I love you too Kagome." Miroku winked before running out.
"DIE HOUSHI!" Kagome roared using Miroku's last name.
"Uh… Kagome, calm down." Ayame said.
"It's just singing." Souten said.
"Bad-history-with-SINGING!" Kagome roared.
"Kagome, calm down please." Kaguya-sensei said.
"Fine." Kagome muttered.
Kagome had been fuming for the rest of the period. Inuyasha was scared… very scared of Kagome during the period.
When the bell rang, signaling Kagome's spare and lunch. She was going to pummel Miroku into the ground when it was their Math class.
Kagome walked outside and met Kagura and Kanna.
"Hi guys!" She smiled running up to them.
"Hey Kagome," Kagura greeted.
"So what's new?" Kagome asked as they started walking.
"You look really good on your stage show Kagome." Kanna smiled.
"You think? Thanks guys." Kagome smiled. Just then Shiori, Inuyasha's cousin and a member of the archery team ran in her direction.
"Hey Shiori." Kagome greeted.
"Inuyasha wants to talk to you." Shiori said. She grinned and said hello to Kagura and Kanna.
"Why? Can't he call me? To preoccupied with Kikyo is he?" Kagome said.
"Kikyo is all going crazy on this Winter Queen thing. I think she's charging Inuyasha's platinum card to buy the dress." Shiori frowned.
"Ouch, I hope he doesn't go bankrupt." Kagura grinned.
"Sesshomaru would kill him." Kagome smirked.
"He'd probably do more then that." Kanna giggled.
"I should go call him." Kagome said as she waved goodbye. She walked to Memorial Park and sat on a swing as she flipped her phone open. She speed dialed Inuyasha as she swung on the swings.
"Hey Sweetheart." He said sweetly.
"The sky." Kagome said cheekily.
"Very funny. Shiori said that you said that I was too preoccupied with…"
"I did in fact. After our show you've only been talking with her."
"Was it not I who talked to you in class today?"
"That's because we go to class together."
"Ok…"
"What is you wanted to talk to be about?" Kagome asked.
"You see… I got this dress for Kikyo and well since you and her are basically the same size-"
"Fine, I'll try the dress on for you." Kagome sighed.
"Thanks!" Inuyasha sighed thankfully as he hung up.
'That's it? You haven't really talked to me in the past 2 weeks and you finally call me up asking if I could 'model' Kikyo's dress for you?'
Kagome got up and started walking back to the school when she felt a hand wrap around her mouth and pull her into the bushes.
Kagome's eyes widened as she started struggling. The hand moved and Kagome let out such a deafening scream, the man thought his ears would be ringing.
"Shut up!" He growled.
Kagome turned around and her eyes widened. "Naraku."
Short but ok I guess… what now?
