The Summer of Chaos
Chapter 2: Souta's Suspision
Kagome had just finished cleaning her room. Well, no, actually she just stuffed everything that was out of place into her bulging closet... which was soon to explodeand burst in your face.
Anyways, she was heading for the kitchen with a smile on her face, thinking of how the day would be like when she heard a tap on the window. She checked the family room, where Souta was playing Soulcalibur2 on his PS2, beating the crap out of an ugly-looking Voldo (o wait, he's always been ugly).
There were 2 windows in the family room, both behind the 3-cushion sofa-bed. If you looked through the left window, which is exactly what Kagome was doing at the time being, you would have seen a wooden sign the said "Sunset Shrine" (named after a sunset the founder saw that seemed cool but then after that they felt very stupid for naming it after a large ball of fire scattering, absorbing, and all those crappy science terms to make a sunset).
It was accompanied by a slip of paper pinned to the rough oak board that told the public that the shrine was closed for the day. (Not that anyone cared after that incident where Grandpa chased a costumer away saying demons lived under his bed...) Through the window on the right, one could see a beautiful grove of sakura trees, their elegant rosy-white blossoms in full bloom (when do they bloom, NEway? Beta-reader: Spring. Duh). But she didn't care about that because it had nothing to do with jewel shards or evil demons planning world domination, that or her homework. Not finding anything out of place, she took a detour and turned to her left, entering the family room. She examined the room, finding nothing odd enough to scare the shit out of her coming guests.
'Oh well, probably just my imagination...'
She walked back into the kitchen and eyed the natto (fermented bean curd) that was sitting in a little dish on the table like an murderous weapon of mass destruction.
'No thanks!' she thought as she grabbed a banana, trying to resist the urge to take the natto, walk over to the kitchen table... and mash it into mush with a hammer. She had just finished peeling it and was about to take a bite when ... "taptaptap" ... there it was, that demented noise again! She looked across the room, peering out the double-doors that opened to the pathway to the well. What she saw was beyond belief.
"Holy shit!" she vocalized without realizing.
"N-no way..." she whispered to herself, but apparently her hypnotized brother heard her above the music that was blaring out from the video game system.
"What is it, oneesan?" Souta asked as he danced to the victory music with a smile on his face, but when his older sister didn't answer, he stopped his little polka jig and walked over to the jet-black-haired girl, whose jaw was glued to the ground in surprise, well almost literally.
"What is it?" he repeated as he looked out the window. "Are those new friends or something? Ooh, do you like one of them?" He took a better look and saw person with dog-ears wearing a red robe.
"Inuyasha!" he shouted with joy. Then he smirked evilly. He had a plan. A very evil and vile plan, so very evil and vile that there was extra emphasis on the words evil, which was bolded in italics, and vile, with a special underline reserved just for the purpose. "What have you been doing, Kagome? Who are those people that he's with? Did he get a new girlfriend? He looks frantic, like his pants our on fire frantic."
He stopped for a second, still smiling his evilly vile grin.
"OMIGOD sis! You didn't, did you? Didyouhave," He sucked in air, as if saying something sacred. Or maybe he just ran out of breath... let's go with that."se-"
"Don't you dare say another word." Kagome commanded in a deadly whisper ( just before the "x" was stated) that was accompanied with an equally deadly glare from her dark-brown eyes as she covered her younger brother's mouth with a slightly banana-flavored hand.
"Now be a good boy and go clean your room." As she released her grip, Souta started to protest, but a fierce look in the eyes from Kagome was all it took to shut him up. That and the bribe of all you could eat pocky on Saturday!
As he climbed up the stairs, he pondered for a moment.
"Could it be? The look in her eyes..." he said to himself as he pictured the creepy retinas of her sister, except with an addition of sharp shark teeth that were too big for her, hair on fire, and pupil-less eyes.
'Did I really see it... it couldn't be, could it? ...fear...?'
You could almost see and hear the lightning and thunder suddenly in the background and a "Dun Dun Duuun!" He ran up the stairs to build a bomb shelter because the apocalypse was coming. But then his mind's short attention span of a twelve year old forgot and he went upstairs to play his hidden Playstation2.
