Chapter 1
Forks was a small town, always overcast and rainy, but Kagome didn't mind that at all. This place was perfect in her opinion. It has dense forest filled with all kind of creatures. The air was cleaner, reminding her of the days in the past, and the perfect place to go camping on weekends. Once she arrived in the states, her uncle Charlie picked her up and drove to her new home for the next two years. Soon enough, they arrived at the small, but very homey-looking, two-story house.
"Well, here we are, you new home till high school's over." Charlie said as he got out of his police car. "The local high school's a few miles away, so I was thinking of getting you a car for you to get around town."
"Ah, don't worry about that, Uncle Charlie." Kagome told him while pulling out her luggage from the back of the car. "I can jog to school and back."
Rising an eyebrow at his niece, "You sure you want to do that? It's pretty far for someone to run there."
"I'll be fine. I was the city champion for cross country running back in Tokyo. This will be nothing compared to what I had to run before." Kagome assured him.
After the suitcases were brought into the house, Charlie led Kagome upstairs to her room. Opening the door, a simple white room was presented to Kagome. It was nice and clean, though simple, it was perfect in Kagome's opinion. "It's not much." Charlie said.
"No. It's perfect. I like it this way." She gave her uncle one of her brilliant smiles. "I personally don't like too much décors."
Pulling out a piece of folded paper, Charlie hand it to Kagome. "Here's a map of Forks, just in case you don't remember where things are when you came over for vacation. School starts in two weeks, so go out and get yourself familiar with the place."
Kagome nodded and took the map from Charlie. "Thanks uncle."
"I still have some work to finish back at the station, so why don't you start unpacking and settle in." Charlie suggested. "I'll be back in a couple of hours to pick you up. Billy heard you were coming back and invited us over for dinner with his kids. You remember Jacob and Rachel, right?"
The miko smiled at the memory of her childhood at Forks. "Yup. Me and Bella use to play with them during the summer. But what about Rebecca?"
"Ah, she got married a couple months ago. A surfer named Soloman Finau, and they moved to Hawaii." He informed her.
"Oh, wow." Kagome was a bit surprised at the news. "I didn't know that. I guess I should congratulate the family when we go over."
"Well, I'll be going now kid. Take care well I'm gone."
"Bye Uncle Charlie."
~oo0o0oo~
Dinner with the Black family was fun. Kagome learned quite a bit about her uncle's best friend's family. Rachel will be going to the Washington University starting in September with a full scholarship, and Jacob is in his final year of middle school. She also learned that Charlie, Billy, and one of their friends, Harry Clearwater, have their monthly fishing trip on Sunday. And she promised she would go on one of their trips when she has time. And over the next two weeks, before school starts, Kagome would often come over to La Push to hang out with Rachel and Jacob, and help out with the house chores. Unfortunately, the carefree days quickly came to an end and its hello sophomore year for Kagome at Forks high.
As Kagome neared the school, she slowed down her jog to a walk and entered the campus of the high school she'll be going to for the next two years. It seemed nice, everyone looked friendly, and everyone also had a car or they would carpool with someone. No surprise there, since Forks high is the only high school in town, and some of them must live pretty far away from the school. All the cars looked very old and beaten, 'like they were pass me downs from their parents' Kagome thought. Then, a silver Volvo pulled into the school parking lot. Kagome's senses screamed at her. Something dangerous was on the school premise. Her blazing blue eyes snapped to the shinny, new car just as five inhumanly beautiful teens stepped out.
'They are not humans.' Kagome thought as she reined on her slightly wild reiki at the supernaturals.
Their skin was impossibly pale, their eyes were shades of gold, something no human should have, and Kagome's heart squeezed painfully in her chest at the familiar eye colour. They were perfect in every sense to a normal human, but to Kagome, they were not, and their soul is hanging onto their body by a fragile string of spirit energy. The living dead. But different from Kikyo.
The driver of the five undeads met her eyes. Kagome felt his aura probe her mental barriers, trying to read into her mind, she pushed back and zapped him with a small bit of her reiki as a warning. She released her mental barrier briefly, long enough for him to hear her thought of him, 'hello, mind reader'. His eyes widened in shock for a fraction of a second before it disappeared. The blond male of the group seems to realize something was bothering his kin and mumbled something to the bronze mind reader. Kagome turned away from the five supernaturals. She'll deal with them later. First, she needs to go find her home room, and with her luck, it will take forever. Her first class was Biology with Mr. Banner in building 2, wherever that was. As she made her way to the building, she felt five pairs of golden eyes following her movement.
~oo0oo~
The Cullen "children" had heard from Carlisle that chief Swan's niece, by the name of Kagome Higurashi, is coming to Forks high, and they had been curious of the new resident in the small town. When they had stepped out of the Edward's Volvo, their noses were assaulted with the smell of peach blossoms. Edward had been the first to locate the girl, his golden orbs met a pair of crystal blue ones. And for some reason, Edward felt as if she knew what they were. His suspicion was confirmed when he tried to read her mind and was zapped with an invisible energy, then he heard something that caused him to freeze up. 'Hello, mind reader.' She knew he wasn't an ordinary human.
Jasper, being an empath, was able to tell something was wrong when he felt Edward's small moment of pain and fear. He turned to his adopted brother with worry, "Edward, what's wrong?" This immediately caught the rest of the Cullen's attention.
"She knows." Edward said with gritted teeth.
"Who knows what?" Rosalie asked.
Turning his head to Kagome's moving figure, and the rest of his family followed suit. Edward spoke quietly, "That girl is chief Swan's niece. And she knew I was a mind reader." Shock flashed through everyone's face.
"Does she know we are vampires?" Emmet whispered the last part, so no passing human would accidentally hear it.
"I don't know. But she knows that we are not normal human" Edward told them.
"I think we should confront her later, for now, we should all head to class." Alice said, "I can see no impending danger in the future yet."
With that said, the five vampires split up, each going to their respective classes. For Alice, it would be Biology in building 2, and briefly a small vision flashed before her eyes. She grinned happily as soon as it was over. It seems that Kagome was in her home room, and she would be late for class if someone doesn't help her. Changing her direction, the small vampire made her way to where Kagome was. Within minutes, Alice made her way to building 5, which was on the other side of the campus, and found a frustrated looking Kagome. Since it was the first day of school, most students are all hanging out near the parking lot, and very little in the buildings. Carefully, Alice made her way to the strange human. "Hey! I'm Alice! You must be Kagome Higurashi!"
The miko narrowed her eyes at the undead, "Yes, that would be me. How did you know my name?"
Alice giggled, "Well, we don't get much visitors here in Forks. And when we do, the whole town knows about it."
"I see."
"You look a bit lost. Do you need help getting to your first class? The campus is pretty big."
"Um, yes" Kagome rubbed her head sheepishly. "I'm horrible with directions. It would be great if you can point me to the direction of building 2."
"Oh~ what a coincident! I have Biology with Mr. Banner first period there!" Alice exclaimed happily.
Kagome blinked, and then smiled at the smaller (yes, for once she isn't the smaller one!) un-human girl. "Wow, I have Mr. Banner right now too!"
"Well, let's go!" Alice grabbed onto her hand, which Kagome found was ice cold, and dragged her to the opposite direction she had been going. Along the way, Kagome decided to pop the question. She can sense that Alice is not evil, and seems to be very nice overall. "Neh, Alice. What are you?"
Alice paused abruptly in an empty corridor, and Kagome almost crashed into her. "Hmm. Edward was right. You really do know we are not ordinary humans. Well, if you know what would you do?"
Kagome shrugged. "Well, that depends on your intentions. As long as you won't cause harm to the innocent, I don't see why we can't be friends. Plus, I've been craving for some supernatural companions." She smiled happily at the vampire.
Alice grinned at Kagome's response, Edward and Jasper may scold her for revealing herself to a human later, but Kagome was really special. And for once, she can actually have a friend to interact with, instead of her coven. "I don't think now is the best time; class starts in 15 minutes. I can tell you during lunch when we are somewhere away from the student population. Ah! How about you show me your schedule? So I can find you before lunch!"
Kagome immediately searched through her bag and handed Alice her schedule. And if possible, Alice's grin grew wider. "We have all of our classes together! We have gym before lunch, and you'll meet my brother, Edward, in gym as well!"
"Edward?" Kagome cocked her head to the side.
"He's the one with the bronze hair, and the mind reader of the family." Alice told the confused priestess.
"Ohh! I remember now. Does your family all have special abilities or something? Are you a seer or something?" Kagome asked.
"That's correct! I can see the future." Alice blinked, surprised that the miko actually guessed correctly.
Kagome's eyes widened in surprise. Well, she's certainly gotten herself in an interesting situation now.
AN: Soloman Finau is Rebecca Black's husband. I didn't even know Rachel had a twin before I read the Wiki -.-' Soooo~ Kagome has met up with the vampires, next up, she will be meeting with a wolf either in the next chapter or the one after! Hehehe~ Also, I feel Kagome is probably wanting some supernatural action for the past 2 years. I mean, knowing you are magical and can't tell anyone else. All that bottled up emotions gotta make her crave for some magical friends :D
And for those who are also reading my Inuyasha/Fairy Tail crossover. I will update sometime this week… actually make that Saturday, I'll probably end up procrastinating.
