/Yo!/= Dark
\Hello\= Daisuke
*Kagome POV*
Why was Inuyasha here? When I saw the others rush up to us I looked over. "Oh, uh... Hi Daisuke-san, Risa-chan, Riku-chan. This is... Ano, his name is Inuyasha. He's a friend of mine," I motioned politely to Inuyasha, who stood there with his arms crossed.
"Hn," Was all he said to them before looking to me. "Okay, Kagome, time to go. You've had you're time."
"Can I stay for one more week?"
"No, wench, now come on let's go!"
"Why can't I?"
" 'Cause I said so. Shippo and everyone else are getting impatient!" I scowled when he mentioned Shippo to make me go back with him. I did of course, but I was busy right now.
"I'm busy, tell them just to wait a little longer." His reply...
"Stop wasting your time here and let's go!" He grabbed my arm and started dragging me.
"I will stay here. Don't make me say it."
"You're coming whether you like it or not, wench. Now come on!"
"Inuyasha~." I sang his name, hinting for what he knew was coming.
"Wait, Kagome, please don't I'll-" He was immediately cut off by me.
"OSUWARI!" I exclaimed, smirking as he made a hole in the ground. The others stared at me in amazement and confusion as Hiwatari just pushed up his glasses. "He'll be fine," I assured them, acting as if it were a trick. "He gets this all the time." They nodded, really confused.
That's when we heard the 5th period school bell. "AIIIIIIII! We better get going before you're late!" I shrieked freaking out as I hurried them inside the school. I saw Daisuke look worried as I walked back outside to the courtyard, where InuYasha was.
"Ka...Go...ME..." He growled, still having a difficult time getting his face out of the dirt.
"Oh, come on! It's not like it hurt you THAT much. Now why do I have to go back?" I asked him. He looked away, as if he was embarrassed.
"K-keh, you said you'd be back by today and I'm just here to pick you up." He crossed his arms in a childish manner, as if trying to prove his point.
"Well, can I have a couple more days?" I begged, giving puppy eyes to him. He shouldn't have looked at me when he was about to say no.
"...Fine," he caved in, "but I will be back in a few days time."
"Arigato!" I said as I hugged him. We both fell over, me on top of him. We looked at eachother and I could feel the heat rising in my cheeks, Inuyasha is also blushing, which just makes this situation just more awkward. I was about to get up when he hugged me, allowing my cheeks to flare to a beet red.
"Your welcome." He said, tightening his grip for a second before letting go. I rolled off him, got up, and helped him get up. Our faces were only mere inches apart. I could feel the heat of my cheeks and I could see he was blushing as well. He stepped back, turned around and coughed. "Well, um, I better be going. I'll be here to pick you up in four days. Ja ne." He leaped into the sky and rushed off. I nodded to myself as I headed into the school 'Now where was Daisuke-san's class again?' I thought as I rushed all over the school to find it.
**In class** *Daisuke's POV*
I looked over at the classroom's door nervously. 'Kagome-san still hasn't showed up after the run-in with that strange man. Does she know him? And what does he mean by 'coming back with us'?' I thought nervously. /Relax, Daisuke. I'm pretty sure she can take care of herself. She's got a different feel to her than the others./ Dark replied to my worried thought.
\What do you mean by that, Dark?\ I asked him.
/Well, I can sense she's got power. But... She seems, well, wise beyond her years, if you've ever heard of that saying. Her eyes look like they've seen war, though her expression doesn't show it./ Dark explained. Suddenly, I heard a door slam and a tired looking Kagome slump by the door. "G...Gomen... Daisuke-san... I forgot... the room number... hehe..." she huffed.
The teacher glared but continued the lesson anyhow. She gasped for air, as if she ran around half the school. I passed a note to her.
Hey, you okay, Kagome-san?
She looked at it for a minute before replying. My eyes widened at the reply.
I'm fine, I just ran around the whole school, starting with the top floor and going down, which is why I'm so tired. Nothing to worry about.
I looked at her worriedly and expected her to pass out like a normal person, but she was right. She was breathing somewhat heavily but was otherwise fine. I wonder if she was exaggerating the part where she was 'running around the whole school' to find my history class.
Are you serious about running around the whole school? If so, are you sure about being alright?
I passed it back, and she looked at me, smiling as if she hadn't run at all. She was about to write back when- "-When the hanyou found Naraku, a vile hanyou who had killed his lover, Kikyo, a priestess who protected the mythed 'Shikon no Tama', he killed him in cold blood, and took the Shikon no Tama. He had made an incorrect wish as to resurrect the dead preistess, Kikyo, and the Jewel locked him inside, into an unending battle that resides in the Shikon no Tama. This-"
"Gomen, Sensei, but that is incorrect." Kagome interrupted. Everyone glanced at her unbelievably.
"Well then, Higurashi-san, perhaps you should tell us what really happened in this 'myth' that you apparently think must be real, then?" Haruna-sensei snided, emphasizing the word 'really', trying to intimidate Kagome like her other students when they try to prove her wrong.
"Oh please, is that you're best stare? I know a guy who could turn you to ice with one stare. And, not that I'm saying I do believe it, I just know the story better than most. Anyway, what really happened," Kagome began, and Haruna-sensei glared, "was that there was a priestess, Kikyo,and her sister, Kaede, who used to live in a village in Edo, or Tokyo, were lent the Shikon no Tama for its protection and purification. Though she fell in love with a hanyou, named..." She paused, and the students leaned closer, waiting for her to say his name. "Inukashi, and it caused her to become weak, so to speak. Onigumo, a bandit whom had burned his whole body and couldn't move, was jealous of the hanyou and had loved Kikyo. So he sold his soul to countless youkai, and in return, they'd give him a body to move and be with Kikyo. Those youkai, who hated Kikyo, gave him a body, but his greed and envy overpowered him and had him become a new person, or hanyou, known as Naraku. At this time, Kikyo and InuYa... InuKashi, sorry, had planned to meet up and have him become a human using the Shikon no Tama. InuKashi originally wanted to become a full youkai until he met Kikyo,who convinced him he was better off as a human. So with the new day coming in, InuKashi arrived early and Naraku set his plan into action. He had the ability to shift forms, and so he pretended to be Kikyo. He pointed an arrow, and in Kikyo's voice, had told him to die as two arrows narrowly missed him and Naraku had notched another. InuKashi had run away to escape and Naraku moved onto Kikyo, this time playing the role of InuKashi. He ran up to Kikyo and dealt a fatal blow to her shoulder, taking the Shikon no Tama and placing it in the shrine where it was originally. InuKashi, seeing the Shikon no Tama and thinking that Kikyo just wanted him dead, took it and tried to use it to become a youkai. The real Kikyo got to him and shot an arrow, which pierced his heart and sent him into a seal that lasted for fifty years. Kikyo died of the wound she had a while after InuKashi was sealed, and had been cremated with the Shikon no Tama, her plans being to bring it out of this world. The rest of the story is still to be unfolded," Kagome finished, and the whole class stared with wide eyes.
"Higurashi-san, how do you know all this exactly? Please tell, I'd love to hear the explanation," Haruna-sensei drawled, as if she was tired of the story.
"Well, I... I have scrolls that tell of the story." Kagome explained, her eyes widening as if she was nervous.
"That is splendid, since class is over you all may leave." Haruna-sensei almost commanded, and we did. To my last and most favorite, Art. We immediately rushed to the art room, and Kagome started sketching, and it was interesting. She drew the Sengoku Jidai, which was very well detailed. /She's a little strange. Be careful around Higurashi./ Dark warned.
"What for?" I whispered, "It's not like she's abnormal, she's just your average teenager." I wondered why Dark was so insistent on being cautious.
/She might seem that way, but she can use magic. I can feel it. Very pure and very powerful. Watch your back, she might be an enemy./ Dark cautioned before returning to the back of my mind. I continued watching what Kagome was drawing until, "Why are you all out of your seats?"
*Kagome's POV*
When I heard that Daisuke's last class was art, I was really happy. I mostly like to draw my adventures with InuYasha and everyone else. This time, I worked on something simple. I started drawing Naraku's puppet in the front, along with Inuyasha with his Tetsusaiga drawn. Sango and Miroku were in the back on Kirara, and I was on Shippo, in bird form. I finished sketching by the time the art teacher walked in and asked, "Why are you all out of your seats?" My breath hitched, immediately sensing a demonic aura. "What's this? A new student in my class?" He asked. I didn't want to look him directly in the face, for he probably has red eyes, or another ghastly color. I kept my eyes on my sketch, instead.
"I-iie, Sensei. Higurashi Kagome-desu(Short version for 'My name is...'), represent-tative for Tsuki Chugak-kou." I stuttered. Ugh, I'm really showing fear now...
"Well, pleasure to meet you, Higurashi-san, may I see your sketch, since everyone is so facinated by..." He stopped his sentence and his eyes widened. It was clear he recognized the people in the sketch.
"After class, may I speak to you outside, Higurashi?" he asked. Daisuke sent me a worried look.
"Sure, Sensei." I replied.
His room was oddly set up. There was a book shelf on the far wall, stacked with plenty of art books. The wall on the left, a few feet from the door, was a white board. There was also a door that lead outside on the corner between the right and the back wall, and on the front wall was a bulletin board. I immediately picked up my handbag, which held my bow and quiver. I continued sketching, though. When I finished, I started painting. I was only half-way done until the bell rang. "Okay, students, enjoy the rest of your day. Good bye," The art teacher smiled before leading me outside, and Daisuke followed. "You don't need to be here, Niwa-san, just Kagome-san I wanted to talk to," He smiled.
"Kagome is a friend of mine, and she probably will get lost in this school, I'm supposed to help her." Daisuke insisted.
"Please go inside to wait a bit okay Daisuke-san? I'll be just a minute." I told him. He turned around and went to a bush, making it look like he went inside. His aura was so easy to pick out. It was violet and pure at the same time.
Turning back to the teacher, I reached my hand into my handbag quickly and notched an arrow at him, "Who are you and what do you want with me, youkai?"
YAY! I made my longest one yet! GOMENASAI for it being so LATE!
Kagome: You need to work on your management skills. With the hiatus you took I could've gone on vacation! Inuyasha: What is a vay-cay-shun(vacation) exactly? Me: A time you go to a hotspring or something like that. I keep forgetting you're from the Sengoku Jidai. I'm pretty sure you can read so here's a dictionary on modern words. (hands Inuyasha a dictionary. Daisuke: How long will we be stuck here exactly? Me: Until I'm done with this story. Inuyasha: I wanna go now! Me: What a child. Inuyasha: Why you...?! (Takes out Tetsusaiga) Me: O~O KAGOME! HELP! Kagome: Why?... Oh fine. Osuwari. (Thud!) Sayonara until the next chapter!
