Chapter 2 New school and friends

On the next day Inu-yasha walked to his new school. There were a lot of students all around. Mostly people seemed to be around three old trees. It seemed to be a very popular place among the students. Couple of teachers walked outside on the school yard keeping their eyes on the students.

Inu-yasha took a deep breath and then started toward the main door of the building. Inside there were a lot more of people spending time before the classes started. The students were around their lockers and some people were only sitting on benches.

No one seemed to really notice him. Some maybe glanced at him, but then they continued their discussions with their friends or what ever they were doing. He sighed, not liking this at all. He must get friends again and be accepted here while all that was already done back in Tokyo.

He walked forward in the corridors to the upper floors. He was told to go to the highest floor and meet the headmaster of the school. There were three floors in the school and just when he came to the second floor someone run at him causing them both to fall.

The guy that had ran at him had only grinned and ran of again. Inu-yasha looked after him seeing how the guy-with-a-pony-tail ran down the stairs having two angry girls after him. Inu-yasha stood up wondering what it was. Then he turned around to head to the highest floor.

He looked up the stairs and right before him was standing a guy with brown hair. Neither one said anything. They just stared at each other and it felt like this strange guy wouldn't welcome him here at all.

After a moment Inu-yasha started up the stairs straight toward the other guy. On the last minute the other one stepped away letting Inu-yasha walk by, but when he walked up he felt how that angry stare followed his back all the way up.

¤¤¤Later in headmaster's office¤¤¤

"Now it's all done" the headmaster said who preferred to be called by her first name, Kaede. She was an old lady who seemed to get quite well along with the students. "I have called one of the students here to show you the way to the classroom, but he doesn't seem to be here yet."

Inu-yasha sat on a soft chair before Kaede's desk silently. He was reading the papers he got over again to make sure it was all right. With other ear he listened on her and nodded to everything she said.

This was boring stuff!

After reading the papers again he put them on the desk and she took them into a paper file. Then he leaned heavily on the chair just when the door of the office opened. He didn't bother to turn around and see who came in.

"Finally" Kaede smiled noticing that it was the waited student who came. "Come here."

Inu-yasha heard the student come toward the desk and then a cheerful and happy face stared at him from behind the chair.

"Oh" the guy with a little pony-tail smiled. "It's you! I'm sorry for the earlier." He smirked and then looked at the headmaster. "What is it, Kaede?"

Inu-yasha lifted his other brow. It seemed that in this school they weren't formal like in his old school. Maybe they knew everyone in this small town anyway. Not really... There were still a lot of people living here and you had to be the most outgoing person if you knew everyone.

"I called you so you could take Inu-yasha to the class and then show him around" Kaede explained. "He's from Tokyo and started here today. However, don't make him same kind of pervert like you, Miroku!"

Miroku smirked and scratched the back of his head. Inu-yasha just stared at him wondering what kind of place this was. In his old school you had to always call the teachers (and especially the headmaster) with their last names. However now it wasn't needed.

"Everything is done here, Inu-yasha" Kaede said smiling, but still having some keenness in her voice. He looked at her before standing up and following Miroku.

¤¤¤Peace of Inu-yasha's diary (I'm reading his diary again!)¤¤¤

I can't believe this school. It's full of strange people. I didn't really realise it until I walked out of headmaster's office.

Miroku, this guy who walked before me, was something you could say in one simple word... Pervert!

If he was meant to show me around the school he mostly showed me the behinds of girls and those red marks on his face after all those slaps. Still... it didn't seem to bother him at all. He only smiled and tried the next one.

Most of the girls seemed to be used to him. They seemed to have a sixth sense. They always knew when he was coming and gave a kick just when he was in the hitting range.

Actually... nothing else I found out of him. He was cheerful and known all around the school. Not to mention that he knew every girl from name to phone number.

Crazy guy in every way!

The school itself seemed to be cosier than my school in Tokyo. The walls were of comforting color and the classrooms were small and much like their teachers. If the teacher was happy the room had happy colors.

Well... nothing more to say about the school. I'm not good in explaining anything like this...

Why am I explaining it anyway!? This is my diary! Like someone would be reading it!

However I gotta remember to write to Koishi...

¤¤¤later¤¤¤

"Good morning, class" the math teacher greeted. He was a tall man with strangely colored hair. Other half of it was grey and the other half was moss green. It was held in loose ponytail and you could tell that the man was about 25 or so.

Inu-yasha leaned forward in his place to whisper something to Miroku who was sitting before him. He, however, never got the change to say anything because the seemingly sharp eyed teacher noticed him.

"You might be Inu-yasha, right?" the teacher said sitting down behind his desk and started to write down something on the papers before him on his desk.

"Yeah" Inu-yasha answered the bored question more boringly.

"Stand up, please!"

Inu-yasha couldn't overlook the order in the teacher's voice. He slowly stood up and looked around at the people in the class. He couldn't overlook the girls either. Most of them were sighing and staring the teacher and most of the boys were annoyed by it.

'Not another teacher like that' Inu-yasha shouted in his mind.

The teacher stood up after being ready with his markings. He looked around and then at Inu-yasha with his yellow eyes. "I'm called Chaz and I'm a math teacher here" he introduced himself. "This is Inu-yasha – a new student from Tokyo." He waited for a moment to get everyone's attention.

"Say hi!" Again there was that order in his voice.

Inu-yasha looked around when everyone greeted, but not even half of the people looked at him. Actually... he did never look at the new students when greeting back in Tokyo. Now he knew how it felt when no one noticed you.

Sighing he sat down again.

¤¤¤Lunch time¤¤¤

Inu-yasha followed Miroku out from the building when they were carrying their trays. They walked toward a wooden table where were people already sitting. Two girls and one boy were by the table.

Miroku led them to the table and sat down. "Hi, guys!" he greeted the people around the table, but the girl beside him got a greeting unwelcome... He rubbed her on her behind and got a sharp slap on his face.

"Who's this guy, Miroku?" the boy by the table asked taking a bite of his bread.

Inu-yasha recognized this boy to be the same one that had stared him angrily when he was going to the highest floor earlier.

"Oh. . ." Miroku got up on the bench again and with a sigh he said "This is Inu-yasha." Then he looked at the girl next to him when Inu-yasha sat down beside the other girl.

"You met him already, Sango, right?" he asked with a wink.

"Huh..." she lifted her head from her food. "Is he the new one? I didn't bother to look."

"Your eyes were too busy to stare at the math teacher" the still unintroduced boy growled seemingly annoyed by the fact. He got a slap from Sango who was blushing.

"So... She's Sango" Miroku said to Inu-yasha smirking.

"I'm Kikyo" the girl beside Inu-yasha offered her hand as a greeting. He took it nodding. She was a beautiful one, but there was some coldness in her.

"And he's Kouga" Miroku finished pointing on the grumpy boy sitting on the other side of Sango. There was a long silence when everyone was eating. Inu-yasha decided to be silent like they.

"Where do you live?" Kikyo finally asked finishing her lunch.

Inu-yasha was still half away from eating all of his ramen when he looked up at her. He swallowed and then answered "In the mansion up North..."

He was cut short by laughing Kouga. "In the haunted mansion?" he asked laughing. "You must be kidding!" The others joined in the laugh.

Inu-yasha got annoyed. He bit his lower lip before growling his question. "What's so funny?"

Miroku was startled by the anger in his voice. "You ask why and you live in the mansion" he said trying to stop laughing. "Have you yet heard any crying?"

Inu-yasha wondered what this was about. "Yes, but..." he tried to say when he was again disturbed by Kouga.

"He's crazy! I knew all along!" He stood up taking his tray and ready to leave. Sango stood up and followed him. So did Miroku as well shrugging his shoulders to Inu-yasha.

Inu-yasha looked after them. What was that about?

"There are no such things as ghosts" Kikyo whispered into his ear walking then after the others.

He looked after them sighing and then he left as well...

A/N: I was real...Real! ...surprised by the reviews. I thank you all for that and as a gift to the readers here is the second chapter. It's kinda introducing more characters.

I'm sorry for the fact that I maybe don't have enough time to get the third chapter here. I'm leaving tomorrow and will be back on next week so if not today or tomorrow morning then on next week will the third chapter be here

I forgot to say this in the first chapter, but... I'm very sorry if there are any similarities to already written stories. That wasn't my intentions.

A/N (05/18/2004):
I edited this chapter right after the first one, but I was quicker in the editing so something might have missed my eyes. If there still are some big mistakes (especially those which disturb the story) tell me.

Now I'm going to sleep cause I have a school day tomorrow

I should be rather studying for an exam than doing this, but this is just how I am. School is something that I usually just leave for later. But this time I'm going to seriously read cause I want to a good grade of it

A/N (05/10/2006):
