InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Across the Battlefield ❯ Sometimes silence is best... ( Chapter 3 )

For any of you who thought that the girl in the previous chapter was Sango you will be mildly surprised.

And I would like to put the state of the earth in simpler context.

The year is 2070 and it in the near future.

There was a weird disease that has yet to be named by me. Depending on who you are you either mutated into yokai, died a slow painful death or if you where incredibly lucky come out alive and with new powers (different powers for different people, and I have yet to explain that complication). The survivors have got to deal with the horrible state the environment is in.(I kind of got the mutation idea from mermaid scar…)

Kagome looked at her sweaty arms, she felt the ache in them from multiple days of pushups to get her ready for pilot duty (why should would have to have strong arms for piloting she would never know). Kagome tried to remember her mother's favorite saying, she could hear Mrs. Higurashi's voice telling her "work your mind and your body and the rewards will be great" but obviously her mother had NOT been doing a set of 20 push-ups when she said that.

Kagome looked to the side to search for her friends face in the crowd and lost her balance. She fell flat on her face, which is good if you like to eat dirt but bad if you don't.

"EWW! Disgusting! My mouth will never be the same!" Kagome managed to say (though not elegantly) through a mouthful of dirt.

"Wad-did-ya say girly?" ground out the instructor, leering down at her in her pitiful state. The man was big, burly and muscular. Unfortunately when he had taken his fitness training class they had not taught him how to use his brain and if there was a epitome of all stereotypical macho male gym teachers he was it.

"Umm I was voicing my opinion on the edibility of dirt." Kagome said, acutely aware that the whole class had stopped what they where doing and where staring at her.

"Say that in English honey."

"Japanese actually" she managed to say with a strait face. The poor man was an American immigrant and was not very good at speaking Japanese, especially in front of a group of Japanese high school students with twice his IQ.

"Whatever, its all is translatable in the end." His wimpy comeback statement aroused a few titters among Kagome's classmates.

"ALL OF YOU BACK TO WORK! 80 pushups now and if ya don't do 'em right then we send ya back for more KAY!? He barked out.

Then he turned his beady little eyes over to Kagome. Like a shark ready to dart forward and snatch it's prey.

Kagome sat and tried to stop the sudden weakness in her knees.

She looked over for support from her new fried Yura but could find her nowhere in the crowd of students.

Kagome sighed; she couldn't ALWAYS lean on Yura for help. Yura had been the girl who had claimed the top bunk, and Kagome had found that her friendship was very valuable. Yura already had a status among cadets, staff and full soldiers alike. She was large in more areas than one. (wink wink nudge nudge, RabidFan's perverted ness strikes again^_^) She had a short stature but was stout and muscular. She had a large chest and liked to show it (she walks into a room and first thing you see would be a massive amount of cleavage). She had a boyish hair cut and it was layered so that the bangs fell forward in a brisk cut. Her style is very 80's and her boots are, what some would call, "bootyliscious". Maybe it was the spiked heels on the boots; maybe it was the enormous muscles on her thighs or the six-pack on her tummy (I wouldn't call it tummy though) but nobody messed with HER.

"NOW for you girlie hmmm, what should I do with you?" The instructors remarked immediately snapped her back to the present.

"Nothing sir. Please, I mean I just fell and all…" the instructors furious look cut her off.

"Yes I think I have it. You are perfect for bathroom duty. Ya get to clean up the diddles folks leave behind" he said grinning pervertedly (To much info! DUDE!).

"Uhh, when?"

He swiveled one of his beady eyes at her and she swore that if he had been a crazy evil genius on an old movies (crazy and evil he was but genius he was not) he would have laughed absurdly.

^_^

(Later in the bathroom, "cleaning up the diddles")

"WHAT a creep! I can't believe he is punishing me for embarrassing him in public! It was on accident for gods sake!"

"I can believe it" smirked a familiar voice.

Kagome jumped. "Don't sneak up on me like that Yura!" she looked up from her mopping and eyed the older girl curiously.

"Why are you here anyway Yura? What's going on?"

"Well Instructor dude here has gone to the staff and complained about your behavior. Do you know any of the staff?"

"Unfortunately yes. He Complained about MY behavior. He was being the ass! It's not my fault he's so dumb!" Kagome burst out indignantly.

"Well anyway the staff has decided that as your punishment you are going to be the next cadet to search for southern barbarians in the South Tokyo desert…"

"Damn!"

"…And I'm to be your supervisor"

"Damn!"

"Yeah and- WHAT did you just say!"

"Uhhh never mind. When are we leaving?"

"Tomorrow. AND don't try to change the subject! You just tried to insult me didn't you?!"

"I'm leaving to get ready" Kagome said as she put her mop away and headed out of the bathroom.

Yura followed obediently while trying to kick Kagome in the shins for injuring her pride.

Kagome sighed. Maybe this wasn't the best time to get nervous about piloting and aircraft.

Hope you enjoyed! I tried to make that chapter funny cause the next I think will be serious.

Sorry about slow updating I'm just a busy gal! (excuse the Texan accent please! gal my butt…)

See Ya soon
