Chapter 3
I was early. I looked at the address written on my hand and double-checked the address of the house I was standing next to. I smiled to myself, happy that I was at the right place. I'd dressed up for the occasion in my black tank top and blue jean shorts. I had my long black hair tied up into a high ponytail and a pair of dark sunglasses perched atop my head. I wanted to make a good first impression.
Suddenly, I heard the pounding of feet behind me. I turned to see what was coming towards me and…
"Kikyo!" shouted the crazed-looking white haired teenage boy. He looked straight at me and I assumed he had mis-identified me. I didn't even know anyone named Kikyo, and there was no one else on the street to call out to. "Kikyo!" He called again.
"Who the heck is Kikyo?" I said as he came nearer. And suddenly, I felt myself embraced in big hug.
"I didn't think you were going to come back!" He whispered, and I could tell her was smiling.
"Um, excuse me, but I'm going to ask one more time. WHO THE HECK IS KIKYO?!?!?" I shouted right in his ear as I pushed him off me.
He looked at me for a moment. Then his confused stare turning into a look of pure hate.
"Crud…" He muttered under his breath. I grimaced under his angry glare.
"Yeah? You got a reason for hugging me and then knowing my name?" I snarled in his direction.
"Yeah. Why are you standing out here looking at my house like a loser?" He asked. I rolled my eyes.
"Oh, your house? You gotta be kidding me. Who are you anyways?" I asked with a snappy tone to my voice.
"Ha! Inuyasha, lead singer of the band WOLVES." He stated, almost smiling. "Heard of me? Are you a fan?"
"Oh. Well, I'm the new lead singer of the band WOLVES. Heard of me? Are you a fan?" I said sarcastically back. His almost smile disappeared. His hateful glare returned.
He stalked past me and went into his house, slamming the door behind him. I followed quickly and amazed that someone could be so rude. What a loser.
"Hey!" I shouted after pounding on the door for three minutes straight. "Let me in, Inuyasha!" I yelled two more times and then sat down on the front doorstop, just in time to see a beautiful lady with long black hair somewhat like mine walk towards me. She held a cat and carried a bag over her shoulder.
"Hello?" She asked. "Are you Kagome?"
"Yes!" I beamed. "I'm sorry I'm early! I already met Inuyasha…"
She chuckled. "I'm sure that was quite the pleasant experience."
She opened the door and we walked inside. Inuyasha glance up from where he sat at the computer.
"Kagome says she already met you." The lady said. "And you didn't have enough kindness in your heart to let her in?"
"Of course not. She looks like Kikyo, she smells like Kikyo, and she acts like Kikyo. And yet she is nothing like Kikyo. Kikyo was perfect and…well, look at this girl." He said, gesturing to me. I snarled at him. "Sango, you should know. You were her best friend." He continued. I looked at the lady. So her name was Sango.
"Inuyasha, I know enough to realize that Kikyo was a no-good jerk who would leave us behind without even saying goodbye." Sango said, her face a cold, hard stare.
It was just about then that I realized that this job was going to be a lot harder than I thought.
And then the door opened one last time….
