Hello and welcome to chapter one of "Shooting Star"!
Summary: Have you ever made a wish? Or rather have you ever wished to disappear or for another person to disappear? This is a tale of one girl whose only wish was to be free from the house she called home. Soon she will learn, however, that you should be careful what you wish for.
I have a plot for this story now! And I even have a couple, but that shall remain a secret for now. n.n
On with the show…
------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter One: A Wish Come True?
------------------------------------------------------------
"Please, let me be free. Free as the wind."
That is what she had always wanted…and incidentally…for the moment, that's what she got.
It had been as any other night…Naraku was being an evil/creepy elder brother, Kanna was being eerily quiet, and Hakudoushi was no where in sight. What no one knew at the time was that little Hakudoushi was trying his hand at magic tricks that would set the house a flame.
"Damn brat…" The woman scuffed heatedly as she recalled the night before. Her younger brother had always been cocky, but not even she would have thought that he'd set his stuffed horse,Entei, a flame believing he'd be able to magically make the fire disappear.
So, the house was burned down, Kanna, Hakudoushi, and Naraku had left to stay with a relative in Kyoto. She however, had refused and was now paying to stay in an apartment; thank the lord for bar jobs and the fake id's that help you get them when you're underage.
She walked silently into her new classroom, having just transferred due to the fact it was closer to her apartment. She sighed low, she hated school and all the things that went along with it, like learning and people…damn the people and their overly friendly/nosiness.
"Class I would like you to give a warm welcome to our new student, Shinseina Kagura-san" The teacher spoke in a cheerful girly voice as she smiled at the raven-haired girl. "Shinseina-san, please tell us a bit about yourself, age, hobbies, maybe about where your last school was?"
Kagura sighed inwardly, how annoying… "I'm six-teen, my hobbies are none of your business, and my last school wasn't here…" She smirk slightly as her eyes scanned the room, almost daring the other students to make a remark about her response. She could hear the teacher speaking and lazily let her eyes wonder back to the overly cheerful youth.
"Well…Have a seat then and we'll start class."
The class was far too long for her liking, then again, most things were. She hurriedly got up when the bell rang and headed for the door only to be stopped by a girl with brown eyes and long dark locks that went a little past her shoulders, "Hello, there." She said nonchalantly, "I'm Higurashi Kagome; it's nice to meet you. Chiryou-sensei asked me to show you around since our schedules are the same this semester. I hope we can be friends!"
"…great…" Kagura spoke sarcastically, just what she needed, a 'friend'. She huffed as she followed the Higurashi girl to their next class, hopefully it would be better than the first, but hey, anything's better than staying with her family, she'd put up with any of the crap this school could throw at her as long as she was able to keep her freedom from her old 'home'.

That's it for this chapter… I'd put in more, but I am sooo tired.
Work sucked today!
Anyway, hope you liked.
Dictionary:
Shinseina: One way of saying sacred in Japanese. I'm not sure why I made Kagura's last name Sacred, but hey it works.
Chiryou: One way of saying cure in Japanese. Again, not sure why I named the teacher cure…
Please leave me a review! I'd like to get at least three more before I post the next chapter.
Ja ne!
