Yuurei

Chapter two

InuYasha stood there and sighed. "Of course I can see you." He said, slowly approaching the soaking-wet girl. 'Her uniform looks familiar, she must go to Shikon High.' InuYasha thought after getting a better look at the girl.

When she noticed that he was getting closer the girl scooted away nervously. "Who are you, and why can you see me?" she asked. Her raven hair clung to her face due to the wetness of it and little drops of water would drip from her long locks only to disappear before they hit the ground.

And her pale skin glowed a faintly from being a ghost.

InuYasha sighed again as he slumped down next to the girl. "My name's InuYasha Takahashi. And I help people like you move on to the next world." InuYasha said simply as he stared at the girl next to him. Something about her reminded him of someone that he had held very close to him but he dismissed the thought when he heard her speak.

The girl looked at him curiously and said, "What do you mean 'people like me'?" the girl stared at him with her stormy blue-gray eyes and InuYasha could see the sadness and fear in them, laced with a bit of anger. Something bad had happened to this girl and InuYasha was going to find out.

He glanced at her and said, "Ghosts." Then he shoved his hands into his pockets and rested his head on the locker behind him. His day had already gone bad enough and he didn't really feel like explaining himself to this, obviously new, ghost.

"Oh." She said softly. She released her legs from her arms strong hold and sighed as she closed her eyes. InuYasha was amazed that her hair seemed to constantly drip and now get any drier. Obviously she had been drowned.

It was quiet for a while but then InuYasha broke the silence. "So what's your name?" he asked, looking at her from the corner of his amber eyes. The girl next to him shifted a little and scooted away from him, now seeing how close he sat to her.

The girl opened her blue-gray eyes and looked at him. "Kagome Higurashi." She said, spitting out the 'Higurashi' as if the name was a curse.

"So Kagome, how did you die?" InuYasha asked. He pulled his hands from his pockets and folded them behind his head. Then he glanced at the girl and kept his eyes fixed on her stormy ones. Kagome sighed and looked over to him.

"My father drowned me." She said simply as if it had no meaning to her what so ever. But InuYasha could tell that she was sad about what happened and only tried to mask her sadness. But nonetheless, he was still shocked.

InuYasha choked on his breath and said, "He did what!" he was now upright, staring at her as if she had said something disgusting. Well, she had said something disgusting. InuYasha couldn't believe that a girl's father would do something so horrible to his daughter, but that wasn't all he did.

"I told you, he drowned me." She said again with a bit of irritation in her voice for having to repeat herself.

"Why did he do that?" InuYasha shouted. Kagome sighed and placed her head in her hands.

"Well, he said that he loved me so much that he wanted to marry me and then he kidnapped me and took me to a hotel. Then he tried to rape me but I fought him off and said I would never marry him even if my life depended on it. Then he got really angry with me and went into the bathroom and filled the tub full of water. When he came out, he tied something around my mouth and dragged me into the bathroom by my hair and threw me into the tub and held me down under the water. I tried to brake free but unlike the last time, he kept his hold. I kept struggling until everything went black.

"Next thing I knew I was floating above him and my body. That's when I started to really freak out. I started yelling at him but he couldn't hear me and just sat there, weeping over my dead body. Then he pulled me out of the tub and brought me into the room and placed me on the bed and began to take off my clothes but then I left, not wanting to see what he would do next. I tried going home to talk to my mother, but she didn't hear me either. Back then I still didn't believe I was dead and I thought it was all just a horrible dream that I would wake up from soon, but I never did and it finally started to sink into me that I was dead.

"Then one day my fears were confirmed when I overheard two girls from my school talking about how the police found a dead body of a girl under the bed in a hotel room nearby and then my name came up into the conversation. Then I rushed home to find the police taking my father away and my mother screaming horrible things at him like 'murderer' and 'psychopath'. That's when I finally decided that I was dead. First I went insane, blaming any person or ghost that I saw, but the people couldn't hear me and the other ghosts just shook their heads in sympathy. So then I decided just recently, to make everyone else's lives just a miserable as mine. But even that hasn't worked out very well." She finished just as the bell rang.

People came storming into the once quiet hallway. Some stepped on InuYasha but he still didn't move, still shocked by the young girl's story. 'That's the worst thing that I've heard in a long time.' InuYasha thought. Then he was finally knocked out of his shocked state by someone's backpack banging him in the side of the head. "Hey watch it buddy!" InuYasha shouted as the person walked by, shaking his first at him. InuYasha sighed and stood up. "Well, I guess I'll talk to ya later." InuYasha said, failing to notice the look of hurt in the young girl's eyes.

Just as he started walking away he heard Kagome calling him from behind. "InuYasha, wait!" she shouted as she floated over to him. He looked over his shoulder at the girl, his eyes saying 'Yeah?' "Can I go with you?" she asked softly.

InuYasha sighed and said, "Sure." It's not like anyone would notice the dripping wet 15-year-old floating above his head, so what did he have to lose?

Miroku peeked at InuYasha from the corner of the hall, how InuYasha didn't see him come out of the class a follow him, Miroku didn't know. Then he heard InuYasha speaking. "So, how did you die?"

'Who is he talking to?' Miroku asked himself. He watched InuYasha's face turn from a look of calmness to shock as he sat there. 'And what's got him so freaked out?' Miroku thought as he watched the raven-haired boy before him. Then when InuYasha began to talk again, something scared the living daylights out of Miroku.

RIIIIING

Miroku jumped at the sound of the bell. Then as the many people stormed in from the classrooms a girl with long-brown hair that was pulled up into a high ponytail and magenta eye shadow knocked him down as she tried to pass. "Hey, watch were you're walking, buddy!" she said as she stepped over Miroku, who laid spread eagle on the floor.

Miroku smiled as she stepped over his face. 'Hmm, pink suites her.'

A/N: OK, it's finished! Thank god! No offense religious ppl! . Oh, and if you didn't get the 'Pink suits her' thing, it means that when she stepped over him he saw up her skirt! Geez, slow pplz…
