Shikon University Drama

Chapter 2: Taxi Trouble

Beep! Beep! The taxi driver honked. Kagome ran out the door with her backpack and duffle bag. Once Kagome got in the car she gave the lady in the drivers seat five dollars. The lady backed the taxi out of the drive way and drove off leaving Kagome's mom in the middle of the driveway with a scowl on her face. Before Kagome was going to ask the driver how long the ride was. She paused and thought back to when her mom was in the kitchen yesterday.

"Kagome when are you going to pack for your first day at University?" her mother asked. Kagome looked up from her card game of Jin with Sota. "Maybe later, mom I think I just want to relax right now," she answered. "Well okay, but don't leave it too long!" her mother said with a smile. Kagome gave a quick nod and looked back at her cards. "Oh, mom?" she asked waiting for her mom to reply. "Yes?" her mom answered. "How long is the drive from here?" Kagome retorted quickly. There was a long pause before her mother answered. "Oh about… I don't know…an hour or so." "Why?" her mom replied. "Nothing really, but is it really that long?" she answered then went right back to the questions. There was no answer after that. "JIN!" Sota cried loudly.

"Oh yeah that's how long it's going to take to get to University!" Kagome remembered. "What?" the driver asked. "Oh, nothing I was just remembering something," Kagome replied. "Well were here!" the lady exclaimed. "What?" Kagome asked in surprise while looking at the school to her right. "Um… you must be mistaken!" "I asked to go to Shikon University!" "Not Shikon Elementary!" Kagome complained. "Oh, my apologies ma'am!" the lady apologized. The driver began to move forward and then they were off on the road again.

…Ten minutes later…

"Now, I hope this school coming up next is the right one!" the driver exclaimed. When they got in view of the school Kagome's mouth was just about to say a whole bunch of words at the driver but then she just calmed down and said, "No, I am sorry this is not the school I asked to go to!" "Can you please drive on to Shikon Unthe lady interrupted her and said, "Oh I know where that is!" "Ok, then can you take me their now?" she added. "Sure!" "My break is coming soon so that will give me time to recuperate!" the lady exclaimed.

…Fifteen minutes later…

The driver pulled up into the drive-thru for Shikon Burger Palace. "Hi, can I have a Combo # 4 with onions and pickles?" the driver asked. "What!" "You can't be serious!" Kagome started to yell. "Ok, and what would you like to drink?" the woman at the window asked. "Um…coke…no wait diet coke…no…sprite…um…" the driver stumbled. "She wants a ROOT BEER FOR PEETS SAKE!" Kagome screamed out the window to the intercom. "Yeah!" "That's what I want!" the driver jumped up out of her seat and while hitting her head on the ceiling. Kagome leaned against the door of the car and pouted. "Please wait!" the lady said at the window. After they waited the driver drove up to the third window and got her combo. Kagome starred at the driver in disgust. The driver looked back at her and said, "Do you want some?" She asked. Kagome then looked up at her and gave her a deadly scowl.

After the driver ate and went to the next school up ahead Kagome was just about to strangle the woman!
