Hakudoushi relaxed against the chair he was on and glanced around the dimly lit room. He was currently in his palace in the southern lands, where he spent the better of his time at. Even though it was essential for the lands, he couldn't help but get bored of signing document after document and discussing peace treaties with the other lords. It just wasn't his thing. He looked back at the documents littering his desk and gave a barely audible groan. There was still a huge stack of unsigned documents that had to be delivered to their respective patrons by midnight tomorrow.

Scratching the back of his head and leaning further back in his chair, Hakudoushi contemplated simply leaving them there and leaving the palace for some dearly needed fresh air. He supposed it wouldn't be too bad if he left for the rest of the day and came back and finished signing them during midnight hours. It's not like he slept much anyway. Nodding to himself, Hakudoushi leaned further back in his chair and set his feet on the desk, raising his arms above him as he stretched his muscles. Unable to resist as he stretched, he let out a yawn, glad that he was alone for no one to see it.

Getting up he walked over towards his balcony, giving the documents on his desk one last glance before jumping over the railing, his hair and clothes billowing past him.

When his feet touched the ground, a thought went through his head—

Maybe I'll pay Kagome a visit.

—and then he was off, rushing through trees towards a hole in the barrier only a few select demons knew of, a smirk present on his face as he did so.

Kagome's teacher seemed to drone on forever as she talked about the many ways to solve a more advanced math problem, both with a calculator and without. Kagome just sighed to herself and lightly tapped her pencil on her desk. She would never get this stuff, no matter what anyone else said about it.

As she looked at the window, Kagome thought back to the red head who had tricked her. Just thinking about him made her blood boil. She still couldn't get over the fact that she had gotten a detention on her first day, and it was his entire fault. Kagome's grip on her mechanical pencil tightened as she thought of ways to get back at him.

"Higurashi."

Maybe she could sneak up on him when he least expected it and put a subduing necklace on him—

"Higurashi."

—or maybe she could get him while he's sleeping and cut his perfect hair. But wait, that would require her to know where he lived, which she didn't.

"Higurashi!!"

Kagome jumped out of her contemplating to look towards the now angry teacher who was standing in front of her with a ruler in hand. The ruler went up and down, making a slapping sound as it came back into contact with the palm of her hand. The teacher looked at her with poorly veiled anger behind rimmed glasses.

"Higurashi, I would appreciate it if you paid attention in class. Just because you didn't pay attention in your last school doesn't mean you can't pay attention in my classroom."

Kagome sunk further into her seat. If there was ever a time when she wanted to be swallowed by a black hole, it was now. Kagome meekly looked back at her teacher, cringing when she roughly slammed the ruler down into her hand again.

"Sorry ma'am. It won't happen again."

"See that it doesn't." And with that, the teacher sharply turned on her heel and walked back towards the board, barking out warnings to the other students, who looked at her with sympathy before turning back to the teacher. Kagome let out a breath she didn't know she was holding and relaxed back into her seat.

For the rest of her classes, time seemed to go tortuously slow as she thought about detention. This led to her thinking about that intolerable kitsune, which then made her impossibly mad again, though this time around she was able to conceal it for the most part. Eventually she was in her last class.

With each tick of the clock Kagome's dread increased. In all of her high school life Kagome had never gotten a detention, and as is with all other good students (for the most part), detention was a nightmare. Images of devil teachers and buffed up gangsters ran through her head, chasing her into a nervous wreck.

Tick

Kagome started wringing her hands.

Tock

She chewed on her lip.

Tick

She looked to the clock that hung over the door.

BRIINNGGGG!!

And her fate was sealed.

After every student ran from the classroom, Kagome finally stood from her desk and slowly gathered her things. She grabbed her bag and walked out of the classroom, heading towards…

She doesn't know which room it's in! For some reason this brought a giddy happiness to her and she smiled a huge smile as she skipped down the hallway, happy to prolong the inevitable. Though as she pulled the detention slip from her pocket, Kagome was dread to find out that the room number was on the detention slip.

"3C"

Kagome looked to her left and frowned realizing that she was just outside classroom 3C. Crumpling the already crumpled slip of paper and shoving it back into her pocket; Kagome walked to the classroom and slid the door open. When she opened the door, she was surprised to find a teacher who was far from a devil; in fact, he seemed quite laid-back. When she went to look at the occupants of detention she saw some typical gangsters, but they weren't overly intimidating, probably regulars. The rest just seemed to be regular people.

She blinked a few times before making her way over to the teacher. He looked towards her once he noticed her and put a smile on his face.

"Hello there, I'm Tanaka-sensei. I can assume you're new to detention?" He took her detention slip from her and put it on his desk with the others.

Kagome looked at him from under her lashes while fiddled with her skirt. "You can tell?"

The teacher just laughed and put that smile back in his face. "Yes, when you walked in you looked just like a puppy with its tail between its legs. Most of the regulars don't look like kicked puppies if you know what I mean." He gestured towards the regulars in question. They had their feet on the desks while they leaned back in the chairs. Others were standing up and simply chatting with other people, disregarding the fact that they were in detention. Overall, they looked pretty confident and laid-back. Kagome looked back towards the teacher with a blush on her face, mortified. She must look like a total goodie-goodie!

The young teacher laughed again at her blush. "Don't worry so much. Why don't you go grab a seat?" He gave her another reassuring smile. "There's a first time for everything."

Kagome smiled back at the teacher, finally taking the time to get a good look at him. He had straight light brown hair that hung loosely in front of dark brown eyes that twinkled when he smiled. Guessing from what she could see from what his clothes provided, she guessed he was pretty fit, he was young after all. She would say he was in his mid-twenties.

She couldn't help but find him cute.

Gah! What am I doing?! I can't get a crush on a teacher! With that thought, Kagome smiled back at the teacher one last time (with a blush still on her face) and went to sit down, hoping to get detention over with without making a total fool of herself in front of the hottie teacher.

She supposed detention wasn't so bad.

Hiei's agitation rose after he watched the scene of Kagome going all goo-goo-eyed over the human named "Tanaka-sensei". As if seeing they way that the fox interacted with her wasn't enough. Now he could barely control himself because of how she looked at a human? It was disgusting and he hated himself for feeling this way.

He was currently sitting in a tree that was conveniently placed in a courtyard outside of the classroom that Kagome was in. It gave him the perfect vantage point to spy on her through the windows without being seen. He had told himself that the only reason he was spying on her was so that he could find some aspect about her that would prove she was a worthless, weak, disgusting human being and these things he was feeling towards her was simply something he had ate, something that didn't sit well with him and made his stomach churn. Maybe it had been the piece of cake he had stolen out of Kurama's fridge the other day.

Without noticing it himself, Hiei leaned forward a bit when he noticed a few of the human males walking towards Kagome.

Kagome had just finished reading a chapter of her book on Mythology when she noticed that there was a shadow blocking her light. Looking up she came face to face with the three more… intimidating regulars of detention. They each had some sort of unique hairstyle with a unique hair color to match (and there uniforms were far from primp and proper). Gulping, Kagome set her book down and addressed the boys.

"Um… is there anything I could help you with?" She glanced around them looking for any sign of Tanaka-sensei. Unfortunately, he had chosen that time to step out for a bathroom break.

"Not really." The one with pink, spiked hair leaned on his elbows and he looked her over. "Just wondering what a hottie goodie-goodie like you is doing in detention." He gave her a broad grin as his eyes focused back on her face.

Kagome blushed prettily for a moment at his obvious appreciation of her body until she remembered the real reason she was in detention. A flash of red hair and mischievous green eyes ran through her mind and in that instance her anger was ignited anew. Her grip on her pencil tightened as she tried to even out her breathing.

"You want to know why I'm in detention? I'll tell you why! That no good, mush-for-brains, Discipline Committee President gave me a detention for being late! And he was the one who made me late too! If only he could have cut me a little slack and left the dam gate open…!" Kagome's breathing was getting heavier and heavier as her anger grew, her grip on her pencil strengthening every second. It was the good-natured laugh of the delinquents that brought her out of her inner ranting.

"Awww… I haven't laughed that good in ages." The one with blonde hair tied back in four separate ponytails said as he wiped his eyes of tears. "It would figure that it was that smart-ass-punk who pissed you off."

The remaining boy with pinned back, black hair patted her shoulder in reassurance. "Yah, don't worry about him, he thinks he rules the school and because of that, he likes to mess with people. I still don't get why the teachers love him so much." He leaned down so that he was eye to eye with her. "Cool?"

Kagome looked at the three delinquents in awe. She would have had no idea that these three were so friendly if she was simply passing by them on the street. She gave them a dazzling smile, thanking them for understanding.

The one with black hair pulled a chair from one of the other desks and sat on it backwards. "So, what's your name, beautiful?"

"Kagome Higurashi, it's a pleasure to meet you." She smiled at him again as she relaxed back into her chair. She couldn't help but relax around these boys.

"Well Kagome, my names Akira." He pointed to the blonde. "That there's Jiro--" Jiro responded to his name with a Yo. "And pinky here is Shin." Shin gave her a wide grin.

Jiro too pulled a chair from one of the surrounding desks and set next to her. "So what do ya say we become detention-buddies? A girl like you needs protectin."

Shin, not one to be left out, also pulled a chair to sit in. "Yah, we'll be your faithful bodyguards. Whaddya say?"

Kagome laughed good-naturedly and nodded her head in agreement. She always seemed to attract the most unique people. "Why not?"

All three boys grinned in excitement. It's not everyday you befriended a beauty like her.

Hakudoushi stood outside of the school he had tracked Kagome to. He was dressed in loose jean pants that had suspenders hanging off the sides; his green shirt was covered by a white and lavender zip-up hoodie; and his hair was tied back in a high ponytail. When in the human world, it wouldn't do any good to stand out too much by wearing traditional kimonos, so he had dressed accordingly.

He hadn't missed the distinct presence of demons inside and outside of the school, so he masked his scent and aura the best he could; which is pretty dam good if he said so himself.

A wicked grin came across his face. He couldn't wait to mess with Kagome.
