Natasha
Kagome invited me over to help her study. We talked about her family on the way over. She said he mother was a very nice woman who was always busy, her grandpa was a talkative old cook who was very proud of their shrine, and her brother was your typical younger sibling. I laughed considering I didn't know what that felt like since I'm the youngest.
"Home, sweet home!" Kagome said as she pushed the door open.
"Is that you Kagome? I feel another presence." An old male voice called from the living room.
"I brought my new friend, Natasha, over. She came to help me study math."
I bowed when I saw a woman and elder man. "Hello. You must be Mrs. Higurashi and grandpa."
Her mother laughed. "Call me mama."/p
"I'm gonna take her upstairs so we can study." Kagome chirped as she pulled my hand up the stairs.
After a few hours of studying, I was ready to pull my hair out. She really was way behind in her classes. Most of the simple things we had to know were rattling her brain.
"Kagome! Can you come here?" Mama called.
"Yeah just a moment!" She yelled out her door. "I'm sorry. I'll be right back." In the process of walking out, she knocked a book off her nightstand. I went over to pick it up, but it was open to a older date. I couldn't help but to read.
That stupid Inuyasha! Who does he think he is? Running off to meet with Kikyo like I didn't know it! That deceiving dog! I'm only putting up with him so that I can lay her soul at rest. After that, I'm done with his half dog demon self and I'll never pass through the well again!
"How much of that did you read?" Her grandfather's voice caught me off guard. I jumped out of the spot I was standing in.
"Oh my! You scared the life out of me!" I panted out.
"I think I've figured out why my granddaughter is so fond of you. Those beads." He pointed at my wrist.
"What about my bracelet?" I asked with a calm, but shaky voice. It was given to me by Nozomi before we passed through the well when I was much younger. It was lilac with a cat paw carved into one of the beads.
"Most people would just think it's a cute bracelet. I am not most people. I come from a long line of priests and priestesses. That bracelet has a spell inscribed on every bead." My heart stopped. "What are you hiding, little girl? Or should I say demon?"
I dashed down the stairs and out the door. I could hear Kagome calling for me as I ran down the street. When I reached the nearest park, I pulled out my cell and dialed the only number that could help me.
After a few rings, the phone connected.
"What do you want, brat?"
"Mashī, I need you to get Nozomi and pick me up. I'm near the Higurashi's. The old man knows."
AN: Sorry for any one who saw this pre-edit. I didn't realize my computer decided to super code the crap out of it to the point no one could read it.
