Chp. 5- Ride to School!

"Kathira?" Kagome says in a soft whisper.

"Five more minutes, mommy."

"Kathira, you going to miss the bus and be late to sch-"

"WHAT! IT CAN'T BE!" She looks at the clock and finds that it is 5:30 a.m.

"I HAVE TO GO AND CHANGE A-AND SHOWER AND, UH!" Kathira runs past Kagome and rushes to get herself ready for school. She grabs a plain bagel and rushes out of the house in her fading black jeans and pink v-neck shirt with a little dog on the left side with matching hot pink hoop earrings. She hurriedly eats her bagel and runs as fast as she could to the bus stop. A pair of red tail light could be seen driving farther away from the stop.

"Oh, no, now I will have to run after it, but I am already tired!" She pants as she flops to the ground. Her ears hang down in disappointment.

"Neko-Chan? Is that you, Kathira?" She looks to see a hanyou Nick looking straight at her.

"Neko-Neko-Kun? Why are you here?"

"I miss the bus and . . . Wait! Did you just call me Neko-Neko-Kun?

"Yup! If you can call me Neko-Chan, then I can you Neko-Neko-Kun!" She jumps up with a sudden burst of energy.

"I DON'T want you to call me. . . Neko-NEKO-Kun." His face blushes but pouts just the same, which makes him look like a little kid.

"What can I CALL you then?"

"Just plain, old Nick."

"Okay, plain, old Nick." She walks away.

"I am not PLAIN, OLD NICK! And, where are you going?" He fallows her.

"I missed my bus and I need to get back to my house so my mom could drop me off. I hope dad doesn't get mad." She shivers at the thought of her dad angry at her for missing the bus. He would take away her computer for sure.

"I could take you." She turns around quickly.

"You can take me? Were is the car?" She looks around for the car.

"I am not taking a car. I'm walking."

"Why would you walk to school when it is 30 miles away? That is so dumb!"

"I can run a 2 and a half miles in a minute in my hanyou form." She stares at him dumbfounded

"Y-you c-can?" She could not belief it, "I can't even go THAT fast! I only go a mile every 3 minutes"

"You are a dog and I am a tiger. Get it?" He moves his backpack from his back to his front.

"Oh, so how are you going to take me?" She had no clue how he would pull this off.

"On my back." He said it as it was the simplest thing on earth.

"Oh yeah, your . . . WAIT! Your back!"

"Yes, now get on so we could get going." He turns around and bends down so she could get on.

She went off like a firecracker, "I-I c-can't get on your b-b-back! I might weight too much and break it or my OR your things could fall and, and-"

"I don't think so. I have a strong back and I have my stuff strap up. I won't drop you ether. Don't worry and get on. I know you are not heavy." She could see his tail swing back and forth as a friendly kitty would do and ears twich.

She started to turn red again, but in the dark, he didn't see it. His ears twitch a bit, again, "Are you coming or what?"

I guess it is okay. As long I don't have to face the wrath of my dad, it will be alright. But, but, but, but, oh FORGET IT!

"Okay", she climbs on to his back. He shifts his back to adjust to the new object it had to carry. He rises up diagonally so Kathira would not fall, almost like how Inu-yasha carries Kagome. He starts on a rather slow pace and slowly speeds up. She grabs on her backpack strap. A second later, Nick jumps up toward the dark morn' sky as the wind rushes past them. Kathira had a hard time keeping her eyes open but loved the feel of the wind on her face. Her dad use to do this all the time when see was young.

" ' Grab on tight now, Kathira", called Inu-yasha.

'I will daddy! This is going to be fun!' I was about 7 when he did his last piggy-back ride for me.

'Here we go!' He ran through the field of wild American flowers as the flown right by me. The wind felt so nice on my face then a red and yellow flower covered my face.

'Daddy! Daddy! I can't see!' He automatically stopped and put his young daughter down.

'I see I have found a pollen covered little puppy on my back.' He lifts the flower off of my face. I was relived that I could see again.

'This little puppy is very yellow. I wonder. . . ' He puts his finger on my nose and brushes it lightly so some would get in my nose.

'AH-AH-AHCOO!' They yellow pollen flew allover the place.

'I see that you have cleaned yourself up. Now I don't have to do it.'

'Daddy! You are silly!'

'Not as silly as you or your mo-'

'Inu-yasha!' Kagome walked over looking very angry.

'Oh no, here come the 'sits'.' He waits for the big hit to the floor.

'You give you daughter a ride and not me? I fell so hurt.' She didn't sound hurt, though.

He looks up to mommy with his famous smirk on his face, 'I will change that.'

He grabs her hand and mine and puts mom on his back and me in his arms as he goes for another run in the flowers

'I love you daddy.' I gave him a big hug.

'As do I, my little pup.' He squeezes her as a way of hugging.

'And, I', She brushed my black and white hair so gently that I fall fast asleep."

Nick's voice shatters her memory, "Let's stop here for breakfast." He stops in front of a cute coffee shop and drops her on the floor.

"Ow! That HURTS!" She stands up and rubs the pain away from her back.

He chuckles, "I thought you would be ready, whatever. Let eat something before we go." He walks into the shop.

"Wait! What about school?" She rushed in after him. He searches for something on a big menu then asks for a chocolate milkshake.

"School is a few blocks from here and it is only 6:30 and it opens at 7:30 so we have time." He shakes himself and he becomes his human self.

"We left at like 5:45 and its 6:30? I thought you were ultra fast?" She says with some attitude.

"I slowed down so you could take it. Any faster and your face would wrinkle."

"Oh." She didn't know that that would happen to her or her face.

"What do you want?" He shows her the menu.

"I DON'T drink coffee." She stated.

"I don't ether so I am having a chocolate milkshake. They have the best milkshakes."

"I guess a chocolate milkshake would do." She walks to a empty table and slides into a seat. Nick comes back with two chocolate milkshakes. He places one in front of her.

She shot up, "What? I was going to buy it an-"

"I got it don't worry. Just drink up." They sat there and drank their shakes. They sometimes talk but rarely do. After they were done, they went off to school.

"Kathira, lets go! Where are you?" He waited outside and Kathira didn't came out yet.

From inside the shop, "I'm coming!" He shakes his head and Kathira runs out of the shop out-of-breath.

"L-let's get going." Kathira gets on hanyou Nick's back and they were off to school.

"Neko-Chan! Nick!" Ichigo is the first to great us when they got to school. "How did you come here earlier when you missed the bus, Neko-Chan?"

"I took a ride with Nick." She points to the human Nick.

"That was very nice of you Nick."

"Yeah." He couldn't believe she kept her promise about the whole hanyou thing by not telling how her brought her.

"Kathira! Hello!" Guess who that is. Haruki runs over to Kathira with his arms ready to hug her but a leg was in front of him and he trips, which Kathira doges by shifting to the left.

"Good job, Ichigo!" Kathira didn't know that she shifted to far to the left and made both her and Nick fell down.

Rikana see the fall from afar, "Are you guys okay?"

"Yeah, I guess." Kathira sits up.

"Kathira, could you get off of me?" She sees she was right on top of Nick.

"Ah! I am so SOO sorry, Nick!" She jumps off him while blushing.

"It's fine. No broken bones." He stands up and dusts himself.

"Time to go to your first period classes." The voice from yesterday called out.

"Bye see ya!" Ichigo walks to her class.

"Later! Now for more- Ow!" A red swollen bump appears on Haruki's head.

"That serves you right. See ya Nick." Rikana waves to Nick.

"Bye Neko-Neko-Kun!" Kathira waves to Nick with some giggles.

"DON'T CALL ME NEKO-NEKO-KUN!" He storms off in the other direction.

When they reach the second floor, with no help from Misoka, Rikana asks, "Why did you call him Neko-Neko-Kun?"

She turns to her, "It makes him mad and he is funny when mad. He, he, he. He totally hates that name!"

"Yeah!" They both run to their first period class, which is weird why they got it, Karate.

"Class we have a new student coming to our class today." The sensei shows a boy wearing karate clothing like us.

His black hair was to his shoulder which was weird for a guy, even a boy, to have his hair that long. It made him like a hippie but you wouldn't tell him that. His stare was cold and his blood red eyes made him even more scarier. Their was a lot of scary people in school but they usually have a good aura but he had an evil one around him. Thank Kagome, for being a miko so she could sense the auras of others.

I don't like him. As she thought that he turned his head to her.

"Why don't you take a seat over there?" He pointed to the back end of the row Kathira was in.

He walked down the lane till he got to her. He glared at her as an enemy then grin like a loco, coco, maniac person would.

"I'm . . ."
