Perfect Tragedy

"Smartness runs in my family. When I went to school I was so smart my teacher was in my class for five years."

Chapter 7

Two Years Later . . .

It has been two years since the accident occurred. Kagome had started training as a miko the very next day. Things were looking up for her. Life had been going great and things seemed to gradually get easier as time progressed. Training got easier and that was probably a good thing for our poor Kagome. On the first day she had been trained to the bone. She passed out on the floor as soon as she walked inside of her home. Her father saw that she was asleep and took her up to her room and tucked her in.

The next day too, had caused her to pass out on the floor once she walked inside of its doors. Her father began to become suspicious and asked Kaede what exactly was she doing to his daughter. She responded by telling him the she was lifting heavy objects. He never questioned her or anyone like that ever again. I guess, but possibly later on.

Kagome was going to start her first day of school today. She is currently five years old and is happy and cheerful as always. The poor girl can't help but smile and say 'hello' to anyone that passes by her. Her father has told her countless time not to speak to strangers but she does anyway. That's just the way she is. She has always loved everybody without caring if she received loved back. She was probably the most selfless little girl that you could ever meet. She meant a lot to those people who do love her. Those people being: Her father, Billy, Jacob, Kaede, and the Cullen family.

She stood at the front door and held the backpack in her tiny hands. She and Jacob were starting school for the first time today. She wondered if it was going to be a good day or not. That is what puzzled the young girl. Then she thought that if Jacob was going to be there then she would be fine. She had grown to love him since the accident. When she told him the she loved him, he replied to her telling her that he loved her too. If it hadn't been for the accident would they had been saying those three simple words, now? No.

If it hadn't been for that accident, they wouldn't have been close as they are now. Somehow this meant a lot to Kagome. She couldn't fathom how this came to be but it was the way she took it. It was her life essence, something that if it had been taken away, she would've died inside. Can this be normal for a girl her age? Is it even normal at all? No it isn't but it happens, to a lot of people actually. That isn't what matters. She now looked up at her father and smiled.

"Are you ready to go," he asked.

"Yes, daddy," she replied with an even bigger smile.

"Okay, sweetheart. Let's go, we need to get there early," he said.

"Yes, daddy," she replied again with the same phrase.

He took her hand and they began to walk to the car. He picked her up and put her in the buster seat. He made sure that she was comfortable and then walked over to the driver side and opened the door. There he sat down and took the car keys out of his pocket and put it into the ignition. They started off slow and then gradually got faster in speed. You see there was a storm raging at the moment. They tried to get there as fast as they possibly could. Plus Charlie didn't want Kagome to catch a cold. That would be a horrible thing for her.

She absolutely hated being sick! She didn't get to go outside or play with Jacob. It wasn't fun at all. It was just an excuse that adults use to do nothing and stay at home. That's the way she thought it was. She now looked through the window. Looking at the trees blowing in every direction, dropping their leaves and losing branches among branches. This kind of weather was supposed to scare a young girl but it didn't scare her. She was one tough little fighting machine. She could do everything on her own and that was the way it was going to stay.

It took about fifteen minuets to get to the school. The school was in La Push. Charlie thought that it would be safer for her to go to a school with a long-life friend nearby. There wasn't a lot of paperwork. So they didn't have to ask that many questions. That was beneficiary to the cause. He pulled up into a parking space and parked. He got out and went to go and get Kagome. When he got there, she was beaming with excitement! Her actions were basically saying, 'Let me out, let me out!'.

He undid her seatbelt and watched her run into the school. He had never seen a kid more excited to go to school in all of his life. "Wait up," he yelled as he ran in behind her. When he finally caught up with her, she had already found Jacob. They were playing. He saw Billy and decided to go over and talk to him.

"Looks like they're having fun."

"It sure does," Billy replied.

"It's their first day."

"Yes it is."

"Doesn't that make you think of when they'll graduate?"

"Yeah it does. I think its time for us to leave."

"Alright, bye then."

"Bye," replied Billy.

As the day went on, Kagome knew every one. Jacob couldn't help but be jealous. He wasn't as social as she was but then again she did spend all of her time with him that day. It made him feel better but he at the very least wanted to make as many friends as she had. He had met two boys that were right around his age. Embry and Quil. They were nice and they never made him feel as if they were boring. Kagome, even though she had other friends, hung out with them. They played football, ate lunch, played at recess together. They all were all now buds for life.

When it was time to go home, all four of them cried and held onto each other as their parents tried to pull them apart. It took them about twenty minuets to finally separate them. Telling them that they'd see each other te next day. They all went home and fell asleep. No matter what happened, they all were together as friends, no matter which one got the girl.
