Just a reminder, this fic is for humor purposes only – I really have no intention of making this into any kind of plot. Reviews are still nice, if you have a suggestion, let me know!
Summary: What happens when Kagome's friends from the fuedal era show up in her time?! Even worse, they've all been signed up for a talent show at her school!
Chapter Two: Why Me?
'Warm, fluffy...Shippo must have fallen asleep on my pillow...it's so warm in my bed this morning, I wonder if Mama turned up the heater...mmm...' Kagome nuzzled against what she thought was Shippo's tail, sighing happily in her half-awake state; last night had been terrible! Her mother had taken her grandfather and Souta to a friend's house, not willing to stay in the presence of Miroku – who had groped her – and had found Sango's violence to be disturbing. Not to mention the possessive barking and snarling of Kouga and Inuyasha, add that on to the fact that Miroku had dared to grope Ayame (who had thrown him out the window) and it was no wonder her mother thought she was crazy for having these people as friends!
Although, it had been funny to watch her mother stroke Kouga's tail – the poor fool hadn't known what to do, even Ayame had laughed!
Kagome stretched her arm towards the fluffy thing against her cheek, wrapping it around the connecting body and...
...wait...
"My, my, Kagome...you're very loving this morning..." Kouga's voice drifted down to her, and her eyes popped open – Kouga, the wolf demon prince, was in her bed. How had he gotten there? How long had been there?! More importantly, who the heck did he think he was!?
Kagome left off a shrill scream; and all hell broke loose. She watched in morbid fascination as Inuyasha burst into the room, leaping on top of Kouga and dragging the wolf out the window – they crashed to the grass outside, snarling at each other, and Sango tumbled in a second later. While the slayer was checking Kagome for injuries, Miroku had managed to sleepily grope Ayame...his shouts were cut off when he impacted to the wall.
The school girl slouched on the bed, dropping her face into her hands; why was it always her? First the jewel being ripped from her body, getting dragged 500 years in the past, treated like a prisoner by the villagers, kidnapped, the jewel breaking, being stuck on a journey a whole different era from home, having her soul ripped from her body, and now this! This was, however, by far the worst of any of the scenarios she could think of; she'd take Naraku or Kagura over this!
"Kagome?" Sango asked, worried. The girl brushed her off.
"I have school, can you make sure they don't burn my house down or kill each other?" she wearily passed up an unconscious monk on her way to the bathroom, shaking her head in dismay and glancing up at the roof – why was it always her?
"Kagome!" Yumi trotted up to her friend as they made their way out of the building – school had been hellish today. She'd failed her math exam, they'd lectured her on attendance, Hojo had practically stalked her with gifts...
"Hey, Yumi." she waved at her friend, who grinned at her.
"Guess what!" Yumi chirped.
"What?" Kagome resisted the urge to roll her eyes and faked interest in what the other girl was saying.
"I signed up your friends for the talent show! Now don't worry, I remember you said they don't know anything about our modern culture – seeing as they live on that island and practice feudal things! But I've already put together skits for them and Kita is helping me with all the costumes!" Yumi was humming happily to herself.
"They probably won't like that idea, but thanks anyway Yumi!" Kagome said quickly; how could Yumi do that? She thought she'd scared her friend away from every mentioning the talent show to her friends, she'd even made up some idiotic excuse about an island that didn't believe in technology!
"Oh, don't be silly! Me and Kita when to see them while you were taking the make up exams, they can't wait! They already have everything they need, except the costumes – but no worries, we're making them!" Yumi waved to her, heading towards her house, "Bye Kagome, I'll stop by to practice later!"
"But...but..." Kagome was left standing in the street, why was it always her?
"Mama, Souta, Granpa I'm-oh, that's right, you guys aren't here." she mumbled, slipping off her shoes. From the living room she could hear the sound of Souta's video game, Kouga and Inuyasha crudely challenging each other and trying to blow up each other's space ships. She shook her head, waving to Ayame, and the other two wolves, who were on the couch watching the TV. Ayame nodded.
"Ah, Kagome, you're home!" Sango said, relief evident on her face, "You have no idea how hard it is to keep Miroku from groping Ayame!" she said, irritated.
"Where is the pervert anyway?" Kagome whispered, and Sango motioned to the back door.
"Ayame threw him into the tree, she told him if he came down she'd..." Sango stopped, blushing, "Nevermind."
"Kagome! Kagome!" Shippo bounded up to his adopted mother, "That nice lady Yumi said we're gonna participate in a talent shoe!"
She giggled at his wording and hugged him fondly, "I guess you are Shippo, have you tried going back through the well again?" she asked Sango, and the slayer nodded.
"We even had Inuyasha carry one of us with him – but he's still the only one who can pass through, whoever he carries just stays here and he crosses over."
Both women sighed and glanced at the group gathered around the TV; the well was rejecting everyone but Inuyasha and Kagome, Kirara had made it through once or twice as well...but no one else could get the well to let them pass. They'd thought it was Naraku's doing, but that made little sense – how had Naraku known about the well, and how could he seal it off? Plus, no one except Inuyasha had come through the well. One minute they'd all been arguing with Kouga in the clearing by the god-tree and the next they were gone, in Kagome's time. Inuyasha had gone through the well to tell Kagome about what had happened, and had found them in shock on the grass of the shrine.
No one was certain why, or how. And now they were going to be exposed to the public...Kagome huffed irritably and stomped into the kitchen, and with Sango's help began to prepare dinner. It was going to be a long week...
