Shippo and Rin started school a few days later, and things are going okay for them. They two of them are in two different classes, with two different teachers, and to different social statuses. But let's talk more about Shippo.
Shippo was in a class taught by a weird old lady by the name of Miss Sakano. Miss Sakano was short and was always hunched because she had back problems. And Miss Sakano was old, I mean, ANCIENT. She had wrinkles on her wrinkles and bags on her bags. She looked as if she was older than Inutaisho.
And we all know Inutaisho is really, really, REALLY OLD.
Miss Sakano had an obsession with mushrooms, too. She would call her students by types of mushrooms when she's angry and carried around a cane shaped like one. She even has pictures and sculptures and random paraphernalia of them all over the place in her house. But let's not go there…
Shippo, on the other hand, was a playboy at school. Really popular with the third grade girls. But he's a real trouble maker, and seemed to like to push Miss Sakano's buttons. But he really crossed the line the other day…It was so bad, even the boys back home got in trouble by you-know-who…
"Now class," Miss Sakano said in her deep, yet raspy voice of hers, "Today's assignment is 'What is the Meaning of Life'." The class groaned and complained that they were too young to talk about that stuff. "Be quiet, young fungi! All I want you to do is to tell me what life means to you. Write it down then I'm going to call on you randomly for your answer. Now, GET TO WORK!"
Minutes of writing and thinking later, Miss Sakano started picking on people to tell the whole class what life meant to them.
"The meaning of life to me is, um," Hiro Suzuki said nervously, "Is to grow up and get a good job as a fireman and, and, get married." Everyone clapped for young Hiro as he sat down.
"Not bad, young fungi, not bad." Miss Sakano said, looking at him through her oversized spectacles. "Next is, Mamiko."
The boys sighed dreamily when they heard her name. Mamiko was the prettiest, smartest, most athletic girl in the whole third grade class. Every boy wanted the little loli, even Shippo. Mamiko stood up and started reading from her paper.
"The meaning of life is to live happily with my family and start a family of my own when I grow up. But before I do that I will become a successful doctor and heal many patients so they can be happy too!" The class cheered and whistled for her as she curtseyed and sat down.
"Lovely," Miss Sakano mumbled. Sometimes she can't stand Mamiko for her perfection at everything. Sometimes she's tired of giving her an A after A for every bit of work she does. "Next, Shippo. Oh lord…"
Shippo stood up and winked at Mamiko, who just blushed and whispered good luck to him. "The meaning of life is…" He started, the he froze.
"Is what?" Miss Sakano said, pounding her mushroom cane against the floor.
"Umm,"
"Come on, you little shit—take, I don't have all day!"
Shippo was very nervous. He started to sweat. His knees were weakening. His eyes shifted in every direction.
"Don't be nervous, Shippo," Mamiko whispered to him. "I have faith in you."
Shippo sighed knowing that Mamiko would never laughed at him or hate him. So he mustered up a smile and a bit of courage ant yelled, "THE MEANING OF LIFE IS TO HAVE SEX WITH MAMIKO!"
Everyone gasped in shock. Mamiko was stunned. And Miss Sakano had a heart attack and dropped dead on the spot. Unfortunately, he was so loud that three other classes, including Rin's class, heard him. Rin's teachers, Mrs. Ito, burst through the doors and pulled Shippo by the ear to the office to have him talk to the principal, and call the hospital for Miss Sakano.
About an hour later, Kurayami talked to the principal in a calm matter. But when she and Shippo left the school, she kicked him and smacked him and punched him, just like Inuyasha would, from the school all the way home. Kurayami dragged poor little Shippo into the house and started bellowing.
"EVERY MAN IN THIS HOUSE! FRONT AND CENTER, NOW!" She screamed. All the men came to the living room to see what she wanted. "Which one of you pervs been teaching Shippo to tell the whole world his sick little fantasies?"
Silence. They looked at Miroku, but Miroku claimed that he was innocent. And he was.
"No one? Don't tell me Shippo has been picking all this dirt up himself! One of you must have putting perverted shit into his head."
"What are you talking about?" Inuyasha said, looking at her funny.
"Today Shippo exclaimed to the world that he wanted to have sex with a classmate!"
The men started to sound disgusted. "Well if no one wants to fess up, then I'm putting blocks all on the manly channels and confiscating every last magazine in your possession!"
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" The boys cried. After that, she blocked all the manly channels, took every last issues of Hustler and Playboy and King that she saw, and whipped all the boys, even her sweetheart. She gave them twelve-hours worth of work to do on weekdays, and forced them to cater every whim of all the girls in the house. It went on for about three months. All because Shippo announced what life meant to him.
