Across town, at the airport, two teenage girls hugged tightly, screaming with joy at the other's presence.

"Oh my god! You're finally here!"

"I know! I've missed you so much!"

Miroku cleared his throat for attention. Sango stopped hugging her friend and introduced them.

"Miroku, this is Kagome. Kagome, meet the lecher." Miroku glared at her.

"Hey!" Kagome just giggled.

"I've heard about you!" Miroku turned back to face her.

"And nothing but good comments I hope."

They laughed and went out to eat. Sango explained that Kagome's family was already moving in their new house and were waiting for her there. She also explained that she and Kagome's mother fixed her school papers and that she would start tomorrow. Sango and Miroku dropped her off at home and left with waving hands and 'see you tomorrow's.

Kagome looked at the stairs behind her and thanked god that Miroku and Sango helped her with her luggage up the stairs. She opened the door with the key that Sango gave her from her mother. She saw the living room filled with boxes and furniture.

"Mom! I'm home!" Her mother poked her head out from the kitchen and smiled warmly.

"Kagome, you're home." She ran towards her mother and hugged her tightly.

"I missed you!" Her mother embraced her.

"I missed you too dear." Kagome let her mother go and walked around.

"Where's grandpa and Sota?"

"Sota's upstairs fixing his room, and Grandpa's outside blessing the shrine."

Kagome turned to face her mother.

"The whole shrine? It'll take all night." Her mother smiled.

"You know you grandfather. Go ahead and leave your things in the living room. Some of your clothes are up in your room already and so is your furniture. Go on ahead and tell your brother to get ready for bed, its going to get late and I don't want my kids to miss out on their first day of school. Okay?"

"okay." She hugged her mother goodnight and went upstairs to tell her little brother the information.

Once done, she took a long bath and dressed in her pajama's. she went to her room and layed on her bed.

'This town doesn't seem so bad.'

She rolled to the side and sighed.

'Home at last.'

She set her alarm clock, and fell asleep.
