CHAPTER 3 :

I stared at my food. It stared back at me.

Well, sort of.

"EW! This is, like, disgusting!"

For once, I agreed with Kikyo. Secretly, of course. The cheerleader and I would rather die than be associated. It was just an exception.

But come on! When you distribute fried fish, you don't leave the head!

Well, maybe you do, but not in cafeterias! Those dead eyes could traumatise someone! Not to mention the bunch of flies in the kitchen…

It's at times like these I wish Inuy- er, I mean, the Punk Ruler- would make a prank. A very, very big prank. You know, something so big it might actually cancel lunchtime and save our lives by doing so?

Yes, well. That punk's pranks are just like tests: always in the bad place, at the bad moment.

"They don't expect us to actually eat this, do they?"- a very pale Nobunaga asked.

Manten, who had tried a little bit of his non-so-fresh meal, was turning an interesting shade of green now. Kikyo and the cheerleaders were moaning and pouting like babies. Sango herself was staring at her fried fish as if it were a potential serial killer. And Miroku… Well, let's just say he was more interested in Sango than in the menu.

But something was missing. Or rather, someone. No dry comments? No mocking laghter? No flying fish?

Uh oh…

We were in trouble.

Well, from experience, I was in trouble.

Because, well…

Where was Inuyasha?

"Kag, look out!"

I heard Sango's cry, but wasn't quick enough. Next thing I knew, I had a dead (no duh!), disgusting fried fish on top of my head. I didn't need to turn around to see what had happened.

A moment of silence passed. Then…

"INUYASHA!"

And hell broke over.

"Fightfood!"

Five seconds later, food flied everywhere in the room, and the teachers weren't able to stop the giant battle.

Well, at least I didn't have to my meal, after all.

...He heh.

-----

AN: Well, that's it. The third chapter! Next chapter will probably be gym time…Now, I just wanted to say that:

1) No, I DON'T hate Kikyo, not the old one anyway. I think the whole 'Kikyo VS Kagome' issue is completely useless, I mean Kikyo is Kagome's incarnation, for Heaven's sake! It's like "Let's fight with myself over the guy I love!" I love both Kagome and old Kikyo, they're the SAME caring, loving person, only that old Kikyo had a harder life and was more sad and had to become very powerful and strong in order to survive.

Now, new Kikyo, that's another matter. People seem to consider her as the old Kikyo turned wicked, but PLEASE re-read manga n°5. The time Kikyo was reborn and took ALL of Kagome's soul, OK that was the REAL Kikyo, and she was angry ( she didn't know about Naraku yet), but then; once Kag has taken her soul back, only a little piece of her soul remained in the ash-made body. ONLY a LITTLE piece: Kikyo's anger and sorrow at this particular event, its Urasue's own words (check the manga). So basically, the real Kikyo IS within Kagome because she IS Kagome, and the monster that goes around stealing souls is Kikyo's ANGER at her unjust fate.

Checking Japanese folcklore, you'll find that Japanese people believe (it's a superstition like the existence of magical kitsune or onis) that a regret, a wish of vengeance or any particularly intense bad feeling of a person (mostly women, I've noticed --U that's so sexist…) can take a material body INDEPENDENTLY from their 'owner' and go off on its own to achieve its goal in order to be at piece again. I'm not making this up. Just read "L'ombre d'un regret" of Pierre Fauvel (literal traduction of the title: the shadow of a regret), it's an example.

That's why I think Inuyasha's a bit silly trying decide between Kikyo's old rancour and Kagome (and thus real Kikyo as well). But then again, Kikyo's anger must disappear…

2)Actually, I was planning for this fic to be Inu/Kag eventually, but if someone asks me, I'll do it a Sessh/Kag. Anyway, this fic is over all a humor fic, so there won't be that much romance, at least until later… Well, there WILL be some Sango/Miroku in some chapters, I think they're really amusing.

By the way, you know Kagome and Inuyasha have been enemies for ages, and Kag and Kikyo clearly dislike each other, though to lesser extent (I mean they try to avoid talking to each other or even meeting, which is quite difficult given they're in the same class most of the time), but Kagome and Sesshomaru get quite along, mainly because they both hate Inuyasha (You know, the enemy of my enemy is my friend? --U). By that I mean that while they're not best friends, seeing how Kag and co are his juniors for about two years and our Ice Prince is, well, icy (now, that's clever), they quite appreciate each other. Anyway, I'll write about it some chapters later.

Woah, that was long. O-O

Sorry. --U
