Okay people, it's that time again. I'm well fit and ready to update!! Although I am lacking in reviews--and so jealous of other people with more reviews than me--I am still willing to update. I'm thinking that this chapter might be shorter than the last one, but you can always hope. Well, here it is.

-------------------------------Ch.6--Hate just opened up its gate-------------------
"Kagome, over here!!" yelled a feminine voice. Kagome caught sight of her and rush to the cafeteria table. "There you are Sango; I thought you were going to sit with Ayame." Sango slurp her ramen, "I was going to, but she change plans and instead sat with Shippo and Bankotsu, she's such a flirt." Kagome giggled. "Well at least you get to sit with me." "Yup" came Sango's reply. After swallowing her rice ball, Sango became curious. "So Kagome did your plan work out?" Kagome gave a half-hearted smile, "Sort of..."
"What do you mean 'sort of'?" Kagome faintly blushed, "Umm.....I gave him the bottle and all, and it's just that he found out by tasting my lips." Sango clapped her hands like an infant and giggle. "You kissed him? On the lips? How can he know?" Sango's mind was racing madly with more trivial questions. 'Are you going steady?' or 'How many kids would you have after you're married?' were just some to name a few.
Kagome gently pushed Sango backward to prevent her from coming any closer with more questions. "He knew because he kissed me when I was Kikyo and when I was me." Sango was now shaking Kagome vigorously. "YOU KISSED HIM TWICE?!!!" were the words that came from her mouth. Luckily, no one in the cafeteria heard. "Sango, SHUT UP!!! Everyone in the whole damn cafeteria could have heard." Kagome took a deep breath "Besides, I kissed him and now the bet is over."
Sango waved her index finger. "Tsk, tsk, tsk.....Kagome, I've change my mind." Kagome arched an eyebrow, "'changed your mind?' What are you saying?" Sango's lips turned into an evil, syrupy, and oh so innocent smile. "Just that now you have to break up Inuyasha and Kikyo, and claim Inuyasha as your man." Kagome glared at Sango for a moment before talking. "You have a sick, twisted, and wicked mind, Sango"
"Why, thank you"
--------------------------------------------------
"So Inuyasha, how's your project going?" asked Miroku. Both were sitting on the picnic table outside and eating lunch. "Nothin' much.....when I get to history, I'm gonna ask Kaede if I can resign and pair up with Kikyo." Miroku shook his head sadly. 'The guy doesn't know when to face the fact that Kikyo's cheating on him'.
---------------------------------------------------
Kagome and Sango went to their lockers to get out their history text book. They were both silent on the way and none tried to start a conversation.
Kagome was still frustrated with the new bet. If she didn't carry it on, she would have to face the consequences and allow Sango to tell her cherished secret. Sango on the other hand, smiled at the thought of the new bet. She hummed a small tune in her head and walked into the history class like it was her favorite subject.
Mrs. Kaede was gathering her graded papers and straightening it out. The bell rung noisily and told the students that class has started. Kagome took her seat and watch Inuyasha carefully as he made his way to Mrs. Kaede's desk.
Inuyasha strutted towards Mrs. Kaede's desk with determination that he would soon switch Kagome for Kikyo. Too bad it couldn't come true. Mrs. Kaede looked up at Inuyasha as he came to her. She settled the papers down neatly on her desk and waited patiently for Inuyasha to talk. "What is it Mr. Takeda?"
Inuyasha gave his trademark false grin. "You know Mrs. Kaede, I was just wondering.....For the project, I would like to have a new partner oh say, Kikyo?"
Mrs. Kaede was about to open her mouth when Inuyasha silenced her, "Now before you tell me your answer I would like to say that Kagome's nice and all, but she doesn't have the brains like Kikyo does. You see, I've been doing most--no---all of the work and Kagome's only sitting on the sofa watching TV.
And she's holding me back. Kikyo on the other hand has amazing abilities and she is way smarter than hollow-headed Kagome. So what do you say Mrs. Kaede, may I switch Kagome for Kikyo?" Mrs. Kaede tapped her pen, acting like she was trying to think.
A few seconds later, she dropped the pen and focused on Inuyasha again. "Mr. Takeda, did you know that Kagome had been a straight A student since her freshman year and Kikyo a straight F student? It's highly lucky for Kikyo to even stay in this school. So if you are to compare Kagome to Kikyo, I think you've been smacked on the head by a giant baseball bat." Inuyasha walked away with indignant flashing in his eyes; he growled angrily under his breath and muttered something about his father suing all the teachers.
Inuyasha stomped towards Kagome and hissed something at her. "Just because I can't switch partners wench, doesn't mean that I'll still be working with you where ever." Kagome batted her eyelashes sarcastically and replied back. "Oh, I thought you weren't talking to me anymore." Inuyasha clenched his fists tightly and sat on his seat. 'Damn that teacher......she made me stuck in a living hell' were the only thoughts that were inserted into his mind.
Mrs. Kaede blew her whistle and all of the students became silent and at her command. "All right class, you have a week left until your essay is due, so I'm giving you time to continue on it and skip today's history quiz." The class cheered and got with their partners. Kagome sat in her seat and waited for Inuyasha to come and tell her the usuals. However, he never did. Kagome got up from her seat and turned to see that Inuyasha wasn't in his seat; instead he was flirting with Kikyo and helping her out with her essay.
Kagome saw that Inuyasha was carrying their essay paper. Kagome groaned in frustration and marched to Inuyasha and Kikyo. "Inuyasha, what are you doing to the essay paper that I wrote?!!" Kikyo's eyes were blinded by sourness. "What do you mean 'you did wrote it' bitch? This is the work of my Inu. He's much smarter than you." Kagome scoffed, "Kikyo, you couldn't even manage a D in all of your final grades, so how can you judge that Inuyasha's smarter than me?"
Kagome grabbed the paper from Inuyasha's clutches and read the name. It was erased and was replaced with 'Inuyasha Takeda' instead of 'Kagome Higurashi'. Kagome's face was white with rage and she protested. "This isn't Inuyasha's work, slut, it's mine!!" Kikyo growled furiously as she heard the nickname given to her. "Slut? I'm not the playgirl who sleeps with men, you are!" Kagome couldn't take it anymore.
When Mrs. Kaede went out to take her bathroom break, Kagome's aura-covered fist was jammed deep into Kikyo's right stomach.
Kikyo was now knocked out unconscious. Inuyasha faced Kagome. He was as mad as an enraged dog. All of the students' attention was on them; they were silent like a cemetery. Kagome clenched her fists and her arms were hanging down by her side. Her face was not sweet and innocent, but was now mad and deadly. A thick, blue, aura surrounded Kagome like heavy mist. Inuyasha lunged at her and to his surprise, Kagome didn't move an inch. He was almost near her when a barrier from Kagome was forced out. Inuyasha landed on the floor with a thud and a flashing light erupted from Kagome and blinded everyone for a moment. When the light faded, everyone was in their seats, including Kagome. They obviously didn't remember anything.
Kikyo was conscious again and she was still dazed out on her chair. Mrs. Kaede returned brushing her hands on her old-fashioned dress. "Now what's this? Didn't I tell everyone to get up out of your seats and work with your partners?"
Immediately, the students rushed to their partners and began working again. Inuyasha and Kagome however, remembered the whole thing. They remained seated and faced each other silently. Inuyasha stared at Kagome like she was a monster. He hissed something to her. "What the hell was that?"
Kagome look shocked of her new found powers too. "I don't know." Inuyasha and Kagome did nothing but think for the last remaining minutes of history class. Kagome's back was facing Inuyasha and Inuyasha was looking at his Rolex every 5 minutes. It was just an excuse to hide his thoughts. 'How the hell did that wench unleash such a power like that? She must be....no she can't.....she can't be a priestess.' Inuyasha rested his forehead on the desk. 'I somehow need to be with her more to find out my answer.' Kagome's thoughts were the same. 'How did I get this power? I know my ancestors were priests and priestesses.......no it can't be.....I'm not a priestess.....I'm just a 16 year old girl.' Kagome rubbed her temple out of tiredness. All her energy was almost drained out from her. Wait until she tells Sango about this.
---------------------------------------------
"OMG!!! Kagome, did you actually punched Kikyo in the stomach?" Sango was jumping up and down in excitement. Kagome looked at Sango as if she were an unintelligent person. "Sango, the point is, some kind of power came out of me during history and I want to know why!" They were in Kagome's room, doing their homework. Kagome was explaining the events that happened to her in history class. Sango couldn't contain her excitement. "You created a barrier to stop Inuyasha from lunging at you?" Kagome nodded. She'd better stop giving Sango sugary sweets in lunch. The sugar's getting to her brain.
Kagome tapped her pen impatiently while watching Sango jump up and down over and over again. "Sango, would you quit jumping? Gramps is downstairs meditating and his room is right down below us.
Sango flushed, "Sorry, well anyways I'm just so eager to see you use your powers again....." Kagome smiled at her friend's enthusiasm. "Well Sango, if you want to see my powers again, then I think we should ask my grandpa on how to activate it." In a flash, Sango pulled Kagome's arm and charged down the stairs. She didn't bother to knock on Gramp's door. Sango gripped the door knob and pulled the door open.
Gramps had an irritated look on his face. They know better than to charge in on him like that during his meditation. "Kagome, you better have a good explanation to interrupt my meditation like this." said Gramps in an angered voice.
After a few minutes of explaining, Gramps was stroking his chin slowly while trying to think. "Hmm......It seems to me that you have miko powers Kagome." Kagome had a look of no surprise. "I know that grandpa, it's just that I want to know how I got them and how to activate them."
Gramps stood up and brushed imaginary dirt stains from his priest kimono. He walked towards a bookshelf lined with scrolls and pulled one out. Gramps sat back down and unraveled the scroll. Within it contained many big words all scripted with red ink. From it, Gramps began to read, " 'Ancestral Line: Priests and Priestesses: Kikmeki Shibori: Priestess, Tajite Youko: Priest, Amura Jinkutso: Priest, Koriko Sakura: Priestess, Kaskeda Hotori: Priest, Higurashi Mikeko' So you see Kagome, your mother and I were priest and priestess, you're the next one to come on the line so basically, you're a priestess too. " Kagome nod as she understand, but she still had one more question left. This was also the question Sango had in mind.
"Hey Gramps, how can I activate my powers?"
