I forgot to write the disclaimer for the prologue and the first chapter of the story and knowing how forgetful I am, I'll probably forget for most of the following chapters. So, I'm using this disclaimer as a general disclaimer for the whole story in case I forget.

I do not own Inuyasha now Prince of Tennis, their rightful owners do.

I looked at the now perplexed teen.

"Kagome, but, but how. You disappeared with out a trace, and what are you doing in middle school, you're almost eighteen now. Why do you look like you're thirteen? It's not even possible!"

"Ryoma, remember when I told I fell down the well on the back of my house and got transported to the Japanese Feudal Era?"

"Yeah, what of it?"

"Well during the final battle against Naraku something happened and now I'm thirteen years old again."

Yes. Ryoma Echizen new of my trips to the Feudal Era. He and I had met several years ago when my mum had decided to take me on a two-month long vacation to the USA to meet one of her old college friends.

Flashback

A nine year old me held on to my mother's hand as we walked up to a fairly large house on the outskirts of Los Angeles.

"Ku-Loon, it's great to see you again!" the woman who opened the door shouted as she hugged my mum half to death.

"Rinko, I see you are as energetic as ever"

"Oh, and this must be Kagome, boy you've grown since I last saw you, back then you barely reached above my knee" Rinko squat down to my level. "You know… I have a five year old son who's in the back yard right now, would you like to go meet him?"

"Sure" I answered with a big smile on my face, I loved meeting new people and this way I could make a new friend.

"Sooo cuuuteeee!" Rinko shrieked "come on Kagome, I'll take you to him, he should be finished playing tennis any moment now".

We stepped onto the back garden of the house were I could see a young boy running around a tennis court playing against an older man with his eyes closed. I was impressed by the way he easily returned his son's hits, but also by Ryoma's determination to beat his father. I approached Ryoma who was now lying on the ground covered in sweat. I stretched out my hand towards him and helped him to his feet.

"Hi! I'm Kagome, you must be Ryoma"

"Uhmm"

"Soo, do you want to be friends?" I asked, after all, what was the worst that could happen.

"Umm, sure…" confusion was clearly shown on his face.

End of Flashback

During those two months Ryo and I had become the best of friends and even after I came back to Japan we kept in contact and I would go visit him every summer. Ryo-kun was the only person outside my family who I had ever told about my trips to the past and incredibly he had believed me without asking questions.

"Just one thing Kagome"

"What is it Ryo-kun?"

"On second thought, two things. 1 Pleeeeaaaaase stop calling me that annoying nick name and 2 … WHY THE HECK ARE YOU WEARING THE GUYS UNIFORM!" Ryoma somehow said in whispers.

"Fine, I'll stop calling you Ryo-kun in public, but you know I call you that just to annoy you. As for why I'm wearing the guy's uniform, have you seen how short the skirt for the girls uniform is, I've already had my fair share of uncomfortable short uniform skirts, plus, after trying both uniforms on the boys uniform was much more comfortable and easy to move around in."

"Taisho-san, Echizen-san. I would very much appreciate if you were to refrain from talking while I'm trying to teach a class." The teacher suddenly said interrupting our conversation.

"Sorry sensei. It won't happen again." We both smile and decided to act as if we were paying attention during the rest of the class.

When Japanese class finally came to an end. I stood up and walked out the classroom closely followed by Ryoma.

"So, Ryoma, what do you usually do for fun around here?"

"Tennis, I'm actually meeting with the other regulars during lunch, would you like to join us?"

"Ryoma!" I stopped abruptly.

"What?"

"You just spoke a whole sentence and told me you have friends! I'm so proud of you!"

"Haha, very funny Kagome"

"Can't blame me, you are incapable of having a conversation with anyone other than your family or me. Any way. Of course I will join you for lunch. By the way, do you know where class B16 is? I have my next class there."

"Umm, yeah. Just walk straight down this hall, it's the last classroom."

"Thanks Ryoma, see you at lunch."

I quickly sprinted off towards my next class and managed to make it there without getting lost and almost ten minutes to spare. I went into the class and found the teacher's seating plan lying on top of his desk, it was just sitting there so I had a look at it and found that there was an empty seat at the back of the class right next to a window. No idea as to why no one had taken that seat but I was not about to pass it up.

Soon after I took my seat other students started coming into the classroom, but non appeared to be my desk partner. At exactly nine o'clock our teacher came in through the door.

"Good morning class and welcome back to the fascinating subject that is mathematics. Now, I would like to introduce all of you to the new student joining our class. Kagome Taisho, please stand up."

"Umm, hi" I mumbled to the class as whispers could be heard mostly involving the words "sitting", "Kaido"; whom I guessed was my desk partner; and "kill". I shrugged of knowing that whoever this Kaido person was there was no way that he could kill me. A few moments later the classroom door opened again and black haired boy walked in, what most surprised me about him was not his bandana, which I was pretty sure was against school policy; but who am I to judge, after all, I'm wearing the boys uniform; or that he had sat down next to me, but the fact that he was hissing. What was up with that!

AN: I have 2 important things and a very important thing to say.

1-Regarding updates: I'll try to update at least once a weak, but the day will change depending on how much homework I have.

2-Regarding Pairings: I don't really care who I pair Kagome with, so I'll try putting up pole so whoever reads the story can give their opinion on the best couple. Unfortunately I've already chosen the love interest of two characters, so Momoshiro and Kaido can not be paired with Kagome.

3-My Very Important Thing To Say: I want to that the people who read, review, or simply had curiosity and clicked on the story to see what it was about, soo. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU.
