Notes: Oh my gosh, I'm sorry. I know I fell behind on writing chapters. I've been studying and actually doing schoolwork, amazingly. Banana Rum, and everyone else who does not know, PDA is 'Public Display of Affection', which is technically kissing, hugging, holding hands in public. A hickey is when someone sucks on your skin and it makes it red because the blood vessels burst. And aneurisms are like brain attacks and you just die. Everyone, Inuyasha know that Kouga is there because of his nose. Hehehe… Remember that 'odd' smell in the fifth chappie he smelt? You'll see why he knows Kouga soon enough.
Chapter Seven: Highway 666
The six friends took the long way home. And death had to visit. Or at least the glass.
"What was he doing!" Kagome panicked. She covered her face and tears rolled down her cheeks. She didn't know why she was crying, she was just so surprised, so shocked.
"Kagome…? Are you okay?" A young freshman asked, walking by. He stopped and looked around for anyone else.
"Oh…" Kagome said surprised and a bit embarrassed. "I…its nothing, really!" Kagome smiled at the freshman, wiping the tears from her face with her right arm. He was Shippo. His orange-red hair was tied in a pony tail and he had a poofy orange-red tail.
Kagome sometimes stared at him. She thought he was so lucky to be a demon also, a fox demon. And she wished to be a demon too, because they had no fear. She was proved wrong when Shippo sometimes hid and cowered from other freshman and upperclassmen. But she still wished to be demon too.
'What a silly idea…' She thought when she remembered again. "Shippo, have you seen Sango lately?" Kagome asked him, regaining her face.
"You mean that senior? She's with that guy Miroku." Shippo replied, turning his head as he did so. He spotted the both of them and pointed. "There they are!"
"Hey!" Sango shouted out. Both Miroku and Sango stood there together. Miroku patted Shippo and Kagome's heads.
"Hey, don't treat me like a kid!" Shippo objected, and Kagome smiled. She thought the same way, but she didn't care much.
"Guess what…" Sango started, but Miroku interrupted.
"I'll be at my car. I'll drop you two off?" Miroku asked, and eyed Shippo. "Three?" He added. All three of them nodded. "I'll drive over."
"I'll come with you!" Shippo added. The both of them went off.
"Anyhow…" Sango continued. She started thinking of what she was going to say. "Ah, yes, Miroku asked me out!" Sango replied happily.
"Aww, that's great!" Kagome replied. She edged around in the dirt. She lowered her eyes and went quiet. Kagome was a little jealous, but not of Miroku, of Inuyasha. And she couldn't help but wonder if everything that had happened was a dream or not.
"Kagome…are you okay?" Sango asked. The both of them had started walking to the curb where Miroku was supposed to drive up and pick them up.
"Oh…yeah, I'm fine!" Kagome quickly smiled. 'That kiss. Was it real, or was it a dream?' Kagome thought. A black Mercedes pulled up, and the tainted window of the passenger's seat rolled down.
"Hey, hop in." Miroku shouted out from the driver's seat. Sango opened the passenger's seat door and stepped in. Kagome opened the back door.
"Oh…hi." Inuyasha said unexpectedly in the back seat. Shippo, Kikyo, and he were all sitting there; Inuyasha at her side, and Kikyo in the middle, Shippo on the driver's side. Kagome squeezed in next to Inuyasha and shut the door. There were no more seat belts left. So Kagome sat in silence and the conversation they had been having resumed.
"So this freaky man came up to me and tried to kiss me. I slapped him, oh my gosh, it was fucking scary!" Kikyo added. She shuddered, almost teary but not. Inuyasha rubbed her shoulders.
Kagome looked away. She thought for a few moments that Inuyasha had really kissed her, but now she knew she was dreaming it. Along with the Kouga thing. She had to be dreaming it. Of course she was, it was all a double dream. Then how'd she end up at the wall after school…? 'It wasn't a double dream, it was a dream in class and a day dream after school.' Kagome thought. She shook her head at herself and looked out the window, which was dark tinted.
"There's a traffic jam on highway 44 so I will be taking the long way, highway 666." Miroku muttered, his hands on the steering wheel.
"Do people really crash on this highway more often than anywhere else?" Sango asked. "After all, it's the devil's numbers." She added, shuddering at the thought of getting in a car accident.
"That's all bullshit." Inuyasha replied. He smirked and snickered at the shuddering girl and freshman fox demon.
"Don't take things so lightly." Kagome replied.
There was a long silence after that statement. Kagome supposed it scared them, but she didn't mean it. It was just a legend, an old folks tale to scare teenage drivers who took the long way home. Or was it…?
"Vrrooooom"A car zoomed by, almost hitting Miroku's Mercedes. His car skidded to the side, but he regained his control again. The car that almost hit him seemed to vanish.
"What the hell! What was his problem?" Miroku exclaimed, angrily. He tensed his grip on the steering wheel and wrinkled his face, a stern look, serious. Miroku was serious about his driving and his car.
More cars were racing by, quite quickly, and quite close to the car. Abrupt loud sounds of threats of racing engines and angry drivers honks. But no one was angry. Suddenly a car honked and speeded by, a little too close to the car, and the black Mercedes swerved.
"Kyaaaaa!" A girl screamed.
Kagome dove head first out the window. It shattered, the glass splints flying everywhere, implanting themselves into flesh.
"Kagome!" A male voice shouted.
Kagome landed on a grassy curb a few meters from the black car. Blood was spilling down her face, a gash from the glass pieces cut her. Kagome reached her hand up and touched the gash. She felt pointy glass pieces and cried out in agony and pain. She closed her eyes in shock and fear.
Then she felt herself being picked up, and she opened her eyes. 'Inuyasha…?' She thought when she saw herself in his arms. She closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Notes: Holy crap, my lip started bleeding. It was feeling funny and numb, so I was like 'whatever' and then I looked in the mirror, and it was bleeding… Its cut…like someone took a knife and sliced it… Where'd it come from?
I know nothing about cars. So if there is no such thing as a black Mercedes, or even a Mercedes at all, please let me know and ignore it. And if 6 people cannot even fit into a Mercedes, I apologize for my lack of knowledge of cars.
Also, the '666' thing. I heard about it when I watched this one movie…I forgot what it was called, but they all died in the end. It was about this devil child…anyhow. I apologize if it offends anyone. I really do.
Now, there is a lesson. Wear your seat belt, and don't drink and drive, and don't be a reckless teenager!
