Chapter two: Getting Braces!!

The girl just stared at Rora for a second, but then soon changed it to a smile. Rora didn't know how to react to this, so

she decided to keep her mouth shut this time.

"Hey, your an american, aren't you?" the girl asked. Rora couldn't believe how well the girls english was, but nodded her

head, slightly shocked.

"That's cool! What's it like in America?" she asked.

"W-Well..., umm..." Rora stuttered, trying not to make fool out of herself.

"Ah,that's ok, you don't have to tell me right now. By the way, my names Kagome. What's yours?" the girl asked holding out

her hand for a hand-shake. Rora was even more shocked than before, and slowly strecthed out her hand to grab Kagome's. Rora's eyes were wide and she didn't know what was going on, until Kagome started to ask her some more questions.

"So, do you know what school your going to yet?"

"Something called manabu high." Rora said, quietly.

"That's cool! That's where I go. I can't wait to see you there. I can help you find your way and such."

"Cool!" Rora said back. 'But it's still hard to think that one of my new friends is one of the characters of my favorite

show!! Life just gets weirder and weirder.'

*****

As Rora and Kagome said they're goodbyes, Rora fell back in her seat and still had the shocked feeling she had when Kagome

told her her name. But when the car was put into motion, Rora jumped. Since she was wearing a seat belt at the time, she

banged her head on the roof of the car.

"Rora! Calm down!" Rora's mother called out from the passengers seat.

"Hai, okaa-san." Rora sighed, as she rubbed her head and buckled up her seat belt. Rora just looked out the window as they

started to drive down the street and onto their new home. Rora may have been calm on the outside, but on the inside she was

screaming like crazy. She just knew that she wasn't going to fit in any where. The only good that happened to her is when

she met Kagome. Just when she thought things couldn't get any worse, her parents told her a certain something she's gotta

get the very next day.

*****

"BRACES!!!!!!!!!"

"Rora, for the last time, calm down." Rora's mother, Bera, said.

"If you don't, then you'll be grounded for a week." Rora's father, Debido said. Rora instantly shut up and straighted

herself in her seat as they continued their little trip to they're new house. 'Great, now things can't get any worse.'

"Oh, and Rora..." Bera said.

'I sence more bad news.'

"Tommorrow, you will go to the doctors office. The school recommended that you would have to get a check-up so that you

won't have to get any of the dieases, and you have to go directly to the school right after the doctor's appointment." Bera

said without turning to face her daughter.

"GREAT! Things just went from bad to worse!" Rora said angrily.

"Well, things are about to get even worse." Debido said. "You have to find your own way to the doctors and to the school.

Your mom and I will be at a appointment."

"AAWWWW MAN!" Rora said out loud and falling back against her seat. Rora turned back to face the window again and felt like

a rotten apple that just made it's way to the garbage can. 'Great, in the moring, I gotta get braces, then I have to go to a doctors appointment, and then to the last hour of school. I hope that things won't get any worse than this.'

*****

The next day, Rora sat in the waiting room of the orthodontist. She dreaded the thought of getting braces. She always hated them, and now she was going to get them for the second time! She didn't like them then, and she won't like them now.

"I hope won't hurt as much as last time." Rora sighed.

"Ano, Boiruru Rora." The orthodontist lady called out.

"Hai, atashi wa okoru" Rora said as she stood up and walked over to the nurses side and into the room where she is to get braces.

*****

"Konnichi wa. Atashi wa Bekuki-kyoshi." the teacher, Bekuki said to the new girl that just walked into the class room.

"K-Konnichi wa." Rora said softly and ducking her head a little. Rora darted her eyes around the room to see who her new class mates were and stopped when she saw Kagome. The teacher pointed to a desk that was next to Kagome, and Rora walked over and sat down. Lucky for Rora, there was only 5 minutes left of school. All the appointmensts she had took up too much of her school time.

"Konnichi wa, Rora-chan. Why weren't you at school this morning?" Kagome asked.

"I had to get braces and I had to go the Doctors office for a few check-ups and I had to walk all the way to the school. I got lost a few times, but at least I made it here." Rora whispered.

"Oh. Well, why don't I walk you home and tell you what is what and where is where." Kagome said, giving Rora a small smile.

"Arigato, that will mean a lot to me." Rora said, returning the smile.

As the school bell rang, and Kagome and Rora were already leaving school grounds, Kagome pointed out all the places and signs that Rora didn't understand just yet. Rora didn't talk that much, only because her braces were hurting her too much. Kagome knew how much pain Rora was going through, sence she had braces only about a year ago. Every once and a while, Rora would put her hand on her mouth, only because the pain of the braces would get worse and worse. Unfortunately, the pain would be there for about 3 or 4 days.

When the two young girls reached Rora's house, they couldn't believe how close that they lived together. Luckily for Rora, Kagome was only two houses down, so now, whenever Rora needed a little bit of help about anything in japanese or anything related to the topic, Rora could just jet on over to Kagome's house.

"This really cool! You're only two houses away from me!" Kagome said, smiling brightly at Rora.

"I know, it's really cool." Rora said smiling brightly as well, "So I guess I'll see you at school tommorrow, Kagome-chan"

"Hai, see you later, Rora-chan" Kagome said as she started to walk down to the sidewalk to her house and waved goodbye. Rora waved back and looked down at the ground on to see one of Kagome's books.

"Oh, I better return this to Kagome." Rora said as she picked up the book and started to jog down the sidewalk to catch up with Kagome. Unfortately, Kagome lived on the corner of the street and when Rora turned the corner, she saw Kagome walking up a steep stair case that was next to Kagome's house. Rora only a confused look as to why Kagome wasn't going to her home but to the shrine next to her home.

Rora shook that thought off and started to run towards the steps that Kagome was on. When she reached the top, she saw Kagome walk into a small well shrine. Rora just got even more confused that before, but she followed anyway. As soon as she was in the shrine, she got a small glimspe of Kagome jumping into the well. Rora thought that Kagome might just be a crazy person, so she jumped into the well after her new friend to help her out of the well, but only found herself being surrounded by a blue light.

Rora gasped at the sight of the light. When the light disappeared, Rora looked around the bottom of the well looking for Kagome, but didn't see Kagome anywhere. Rora looked to the top of the well and saw a bright blue sky along with a few trees off to the side.

"W-What the?" Rora stuttered as she grabbed a vine and started to climb out of the well. Rora gasped as she saw a guy with dog ears suddenly pull her out of the well.

"R-Rora!?!?"
