Is back, sorry it took so long….well not really, too much god damn homework….
Inuyasha stood there a little out of place. He had never been to a nurse's office before, being half demon meant you would rarely get sick. What was a guy to do?
"Alright, Kagome your free to go." Mrs. Tachkoon stepped out with Kagome in tow. "You go ahead Kagome, I'll catch up." Inuyasha said. Kagome simply nodded and left.
"How bad is it?" Inuyasha asked as soon as Kagome was out of earshot. "Worse that before." Mrs. Tachkoon said shaking her head. "Before?" Inuyasha raised and eyebrow. "I never really thought she was clumsy at all, but what am I going to do about it? I've already tried calling some child care centers, they've all come back with nothing." Mrs. Tachkoon sighed and sat down in her chair.
"Are you saying someone's been hitting Kagome?" Inuyasha said walking up to her desk. "I can't prove anything." She said, "you better catch up with her."
Inuyasha huffed and flew out the door. Mrs. Tachkoon wasn't sure if he did it on purpose or not but he slammed the door.
"What am I gonna do?" Inuyasha said walking down the hall looking for where Kagome went. They had maybe five minutes to get to class. Maybe he should just meet her there?
"Do about what Inuyasha-sama?" Kagome said from next to him. Inuyasha jumped. "Ah! N—nothing." He said, "um, could you stop calling me Inuyasha-sama, it's kinda weird." "Alright, Inuyasha-san then?" Kagome said cocking her head to the side a little. "Um, yea, I guess." Inuyasha scratched the back of his neck, why was she giving him titles?
"We should get to class." She said continuing her walk. That's when Inuyasha remembered. "Hey Kags?" "Yes Inuyasha-san?" Kagome lifted her head out of curiosity to what he was going to ask.
"I need to talk to you about something important, could you meet me after school at the library?" He said, unsure if she'd buy it.
"Um…" Kagome was unsure to say yes, what if she got home to late? She was sure she'd get a real beating. But there was a chance that her mom got drunk or something and fell asleep. Maybe even beat her home. "I guess it's alright, but I can't stay out to late."
"Good. So, what's our art teacher like?" Inuyasha said changing the subject. (Obviously)
"Ms. Sakura-chan is really quite wonderful." Kagome said, almost glowing at the thought of her art teacher. "Chan? You really like her that much?" Inuyasha said, a little jealous that Kagome never called him chan. But then again, they had only met about two hours ago.
"Suki-chan is what I call her, she's my mentor until I turn eighteen." Kagome said, a small smile on her lips, you could tell in was genuine.
"Your mentor? For what?" Inuyasha asked.
"My wiccaning is supposed to be on my 1st birthday, but Suki-chan wanted to wait for my 18th." Kagome stopped in front of a big black door. "This is her room." She said gleefully.
At the mention of wiccaning, Inuyasha noticed what Kagome was wearing, it was a long black skirt about to her knees and a black tank top with army black boots. So that's what she meant. She was going to be a wiccan. Inuyasha shuddered slightly, a witch in Japan? Did that mean there was a coven here?
"Inuyasha-san?" Kagome said turning around, before opening the door.
"Yea?" Inuyasha was pushed out of his thoughts and looked over to Kagome. "I need to tell you something before we go in." She continued, "this…art class, is for wicca, so, if your in it…you will have a wiccaning at eighteen too." She said stiffening as if waiting for him to explode.
Inuyasha just stood there. "W—what?" It wasn't every day you find out your gonna be a part of a coven without even knowing it. How was he supposed to react to something like this? But before he could really let the thought sink in, the door behind Kagome opened. "Kaggie, I see you brought a new recruit." The woman at the door petted Kagome's head lightly.
She was pretty tall, and wore a very dark red dress, she seemed to be pretty nice to Kagome. But she looked like some kind of vampire thing.
"Please…do come in." She stepped aside while Kagome walked in gingerly, Inuyasha had a bit of trouble believing the school had a room like this. It was big, that was for sure. But the walls were old looking, and a dark brown. There were no windows and only lanterns lit the room giving it one of those Dracula feels.
The seats were arranged by two's and there were only two tables, one already with two students sitting on it. And a platform desk for the teacher.
"What the hell is a dungeon room doing in a public school?" Inuyasha said, apparently he was asking everyone in the room, because it was pretty loud. "Watch your mouth, hell is not to be said in vain…as for the room, the school has no idea it's here, they think your on a free period. Study hall in other words." Ms. Sakura said, a smirk across her face.
"How come I never knew I had to have a mentor for my wiccaning, I didn't even know I was supposed to have one!" Inuyasha said, Kagome simply took his books from him and sat them on the table next to hers.
Before the teacher could answer, one of the students spoke up. "Wiccans can show a great amount of power, you should be happy your in such a group. My name is Prosper by the way."
He was a little shorter than Inuyasha, a bit pale like Kagome. He had bright blue eyes and light brown hair. His wardrobe consisted of a simple black shirt and jeans, nothing fancy, but black no less.
"He's right you know." This time the girl spoke out. She, unlike Prosper, was very toned. She had red hair and green eyes. Her clothes were a bit wrinkled but in good a shape as anyone's. A gray skirt and a brown sweater, not exactly the most creative colors, but you didn't see anyone really wearing them.
"Name's Artemis" She said coolly.
"Looks like we got ourselves a rebel? What do you think Kagome?" Prosper said, looking over at her.
"At this point I think it best if we just start class Prosper-san." Kagome said walking over to a shelf and pulling off of it some old hard leather bound book. From the outside the pages looked yellow and old, and the leather felt worn out. There was a small black gem on the spine of the book, and a cursive writing titling it 'Book of Shadows'.
"What is that?" Inuyasha asked, no one had bothered sitting down as of yet.
"The Book of Shadows, it has every spell, every demon, every little detail about wicca. Even the witches that were burned in Salem way back when." Ms. Sakura said in her usual calm and cool voice. "I suggest everyone take their seats, I want to test your brain power today…" Ms. Sakura walked into a back room that was only hidden by a bead curtain. Moments later she walked back out with a giant black bowl.
"If you have a strong will, then, you won't…oh let's say…jump on one foot, after looking in the water?" Ms. Sakura continued, " Constance, you first."
Constance walked up to the platform and looked into the bowl. She looked as though she was getting into a trance. Her head shaking lightly. The room was completely quiet…
"Ah!" Constance's shrill scream filled the room as she started hopping on one foot almost to the ledge of the platform. Eventually everyone watched as she fell over the edge with a loud echoing thump. "Ow…" She said slowly standing up.
Prosper stifled a laugh. "Oh shut up Po." Constance said giving him an ugly nickname. Prosper immediately stopped laughing. "Hey! My name is not Po!" He said as he watched her pat of the dust on her skirt.
She only stuck her tongue out at him and sat down. "Hm, you'll have to work on that dear. Kagome…why don't you go next…" Ms Sakura smiled in her devilish mystic as she watched Kagome walk up to the bowl.
