After the table painting the group just hung out for a while, chatting about the next big thing. Apparently Inuyasha's mom, Izayoi, has left the country, disappeared off of the face of the planet altogether, good riddance. Inuyasha had gotten a job at Sony, and was rapidly rising in position. Kagome joked about how he might surpass Kenara, however impossible. He may be smart, but Kenara was clever, they had to give her that.

"Did you hear? Apparently out school is getting a group of guests and some new kids today." Sango said, eating some chips.

"Wonder what they're like." Inuyasha mumbled around a chip that he stubbornly called 'chip potatoes', much to everyone's annoyance.

"They can't be too bad, can they?" Miroku pointed out as the group heard footsteps in the halls. All four humans and hanyou's faced the door as five seventeen year old people came in, smiling and chatting.

"Hello there, my name is Kage Arashi." The first one said, bowing. He had black hair streaked with gold, and bright, green eyes. He was incredibly tall, six foot four at least, and dwarfed a few of his companions and Kagome. He almost raidiated casualness, cracking gum between his teeth. He was dressed in all leather, except for a pair of white nike runners. He smiled, showing parallel rows of white, shiny teeth.

"Tsuki Genosu, at your service!" A girl to the right of Kage spoke, shaking Kagome and Sango's hands, smiling broadly. She had long blue hair which was in a braid tied off with a blue bow. She was short, five foot three, and slim, with a silver scar beside her right eye which crinkled when she smiled. Her blue backpack was slung over her right shoulder and wore a pair of blue jeans and a blue T-shirt, complete with white platform runners.

"You may call me Sora Seishin, and this is my twin Hoshi Seishin." She had her long black hair tied up in a messy bun and wore thin glasses over her brown eyes. She was about six feet tall, and wore a pair of black slacks and a black leather vest over a white tube top. She wore a pair of laced up leather boots to complete the outfit, which were knee high.

Her brother, Hoshi, had short, wavy black hair and the same brown eyes, and that was all that was the same. He was very tall, standing near Kage's height, and wore a red T-shirt and baggy jeans with red runners. He greeted Sango with a broad smile and started chatting with Miroku like a best friend would, then greeted Inuyasha and Kagome with the same respect and kindness.

"So that leaves me, Seion Kiseki. Nice to meet you." A girl that was as tall as Kage stepped up. She had long, silver streaked, black hair that was pulled into a braid tied and wound in a silk ribbon reaching to her knees. Her eyes were blue and streaked with silver, creating a mysterious effect. She wore a black leather mini skirt and a black leather vest and a chain necklace with an odd symbol on it which she said was her family crest.

"Welcome to Victoria!" Kagome said, smiling. "Our art projects are due today, so we wont be doing much but presenting ours. You should grab a chair before the rush comes in.

"Too late." McAuley said as an onrush of kids poured through the door, him struggling to get through.

"You look like a fish out of water McAuley!" Inuyasha laughed. The teacher pretended to be miffed and commanded the laughing students to stand by their projects, but then Inuyasha saw a familiar face in the crowd.

"Kikyo?" He gasped as she ran up and hugged him. He yanked at her arms, trying unsuccessfully pulling her off of him before Kagome or anyone else saw.

"So you know her?" Seion asked, skeptical. He frowned.

"Unfortunately." He kept trying to yank her off. "How do you know her?"

"We go a long way back."

"What do you mean?"

Seion waved her hand, dismissing the matter. "Forget it."

"But-"

"Forget it."

Kikyo turned her face away from Inuyasha's chest and looked at Seion. "Hello, old friend."

"Kikyo." Seion acknowledged coldly. Kagome turned around, seeing the whole spectacle, and frowned.

"Friend of yours?" She asked sarcastically as Inuyasha gave up trying to pull Kikyo off of himself, hanging his arms limply at his sides.

"Well…"

"Are you Kagome Higurashi?" Kikyo asked curtly, letting go of Inuyasha who rubbed his sides, bringing back circulation. Kagome nodded.

"You must be Kikyo then."

Kikyo looked at her in silence for a few minutes before speaking again.

"I challenge you to a duel. After school at the tarmac, choose a fighter for you. The winner-" She looked at the silver haired hanyou, who was still rubbing his sides "- gets Inuyasha." Kagome shook her head.

"He is not a possession. I refuse those terms."

"Fine then. To see who is the better fighter."

Kagome thought, then nodded.

"I accept."

"Good." Kikyo said coldly as McAuley ushered her to her heat and the group of four to their works of art.

After art class, they regrouped outside the front door, plus five. Turns out the new kids weren't so bad after all. Miroku was otherwise… occupying himself.

"Tsuki Genosu, will you do me the honor of bearing my child?"

SLAM!

"I guess not." He turned to Sora. "Will you, young lady, bear my child?"

POW!

"I take that as a no." He lastly turned to a frowning Seion, who looked like she was holding back laughter.

"Will-"

POW! WHACK! SLAM!

Those sounds echoed across the school grounds as Sango and Seion together punched out Miroku's lights simultaneously, Sango looking VERY pissed.

"I think we have a challenge to get to." Seion pointed out.

"Yes. Lets get going. Kagome needs to choose her fighter for the match." Sango pointed out as she grabbed hold of Miroku's ponytail and dragged him behind her as the group, who had convulsed in laughter during this entire episode, followed behind, keeping their mirth at a dull roar.
