Chapter 5: Music and Family
A man woke up, slightly panting, slightly confused. He sat up and looked around his dark bedroom, dark due to his blinds on his windows, and looked at the clock. It read 12:30 P.M.
“Great,” he thought. “So much for my few hours of sleep and peace.” He fell back down on his bed, and stared at his ceiling. His golden amber eyes glowed in the darkness, along with the gentle light of his clock. He closed his eyes again, and tried to fall asleep again, hoping for rest, but luck was not on his side, rest, it seemed, did not want to accompany him today, even in sleep. He just had a very weird dream.
-Dream-
He was sitting under a blossoming tree at some school. The school was very grand looking. It looked like it had had new renovations, and money, a lot of it. He was enjoying the breeze, as it wound in and out between his silver-white hair, and caressed his scalp. His peace was shattered as he heard a scream and saw a girl fall off the roof of the school. Everything moved in slow motion, as he ran to her. He didn't know why he ran, he could care less about the girl, but something in him compelled him to go. His body moved on its own accord. He sprinted, and caught her before she could hit the ground. Her eyes were closed at the moment, looking like she had slipped into unconsciousness, but he could tell she hadn't. Her eyes slowly opened. He became mesmerized as her long, dark eyelashes moved slowly upwards, almost sensuously. He then found himself drowning in endless sapphire pools of water; he was so lost in their depth, that he didn't notice the person running toward them. He turned just in time to see silver hair, almost like his own, bump into him, and take the girl from him. He didn't feel the bump, but he knew it happened. He saw her eyes open again, and saw slight confusion in them. As he was bumped from the girl, he was also bumped from the dream.
-End Dream-
He didn't know what to make of the dream, but it felt so real. He could still hear her thundering heartbeat in his ears; still feel her soft body in his arms. He shook his head, and got out of bed, positive that sleep wouldn't be claiming him anytime soon.

Kagome felt hazy as she woke up from her deep slumber. She slowly opened her eyes, but regretted doing so, because her eyes were attacked with the sun's light, due to her facing the window. She groaned, and turned around, and was about to go back to sleep, thinking she was in her room, when she heard someone call out her name. She couldn't really place the voice, considering her mind felt extremely hazy, but she thought it was her mom.
“Five more minutes, Mom, go wake Sota up first,” she mumbled sleepily.
Instead of the usual “fine” she heard snickering, masculine snickering, not the kind from Sota or grandpa, and definitely not mom. Her eyes shot open, as memories of previous events flooded back to her. She remembered the fighting, and blood, then falling off the roof. Before the landing that would have claimed her life, she was caught by an angel, or at least someone that looked like an angel. Then, the angel was replaced by Inuyasha. Surely Inuyasha wasn't the angel whom she had saw, but he was holding her nonetheless, so it could have been him, but she had a feeling she didn't know everything about it, and that there was more to who she saw then she knew. She didn't want to voice her question, or opinion, in case she was wrong, and ended up hurting his feelings, so she wouldn't question him about it.
She was so lost in thought that she failed to notice the people that had crowded around her. Someone coughed, and she jumped back to reality. She saw her friends that she made today, crowding around her. That alone, made her feel loads better, but looking at the concern in their faces, made her feel guilty for making them feel this way.
“Hi guys,” she whispered. A look of relief flashed through each of their faces when she spoke.
“Welcome back, and I don't know whether or not to be insulted to be called you mother, I like myself as I am now.. if you know what I mean,” Koga teased playfully, before taking her in his arms before speaking seriously. “You gave us quite a scare back there. We were worried for you, mostly me though.” Miroku punched him lightly in the head.
“Hey!” Koga said.
“Not true,” Miroku said. “We were all worried for you the same.”
“Thanks,” Kagome said. She felt better, and she smiled. She had made great friends, and they all cared for her.
“Where's Inuyasha?” she asked. Just as she asked her question, he came through the door. Relief flooded through him as he saw her awake and smiling. Even though he just met her today, he had felt like he had known her for a lifetime, and would have been devastated if anything happened to her. He knew his friends felt the same way; he even had a suspicion that Kagome felt the same way as well.
“You sleep like the dead,” he said bluntly, before smiling. Kagome scowled playfully, before smiling at him.
“So, how long have I been out for?” she questioned.
“Not long, only about 5 minutes or so, we're still in lunch,” replied Koga.
“Oh,” Kagome said. “Ok I feel better now, I'm gonna get up now.” She moved to get up, but the guys insisted that they help her to her feet, even though she repeated a number of times she was fine.
Finally Kagome was on her feet, and moving. Her knee was hurting, but she took Tylenol, and it felt better.
“Thanks guys,” she whispered, knowing they heard it. “you guys are the greatest, I'm glad to have friends like all of you.”
“ Feh. you don't even have to thank us, we don't mind doing anything for you. That's what friends do,” said Inuyasha, speaking like he was talking to a child. Kagome laughed, and gave them her million-dollar smile of gratefulness. Everyone returned her smile. A minute later, the bell wrung.
“See you guys in 6th period,” Kagome called out happily. She waved bye to her friends, and made her way to the gym. She stopped by her car and picked up her gym bag. Her high school recently received a $1,000,000 from the one of the world's biggest computer/technology company Onigumo Inc. run by Naraku Onigumo. She had seen him a few times on tv, and he had come to her school once, but something about him, she didn't like, but people considered him an angel or something. He was always, donating money, etc. He helped the poor, and volunteered at many places. On top of all this, he owned one of the most profitable computer/technology businesses in the world. No matter how great he seemed, Kagome still felt like there was something behind everything, something beyond what everyone saw, but she wasn't complaining. The million dollars given to her school really helped. There were many more clubs and things to do at the school, the dropout rate had decreased rapidly, to where there were barely any dropouts at all, and it was quickly becoming one of the top schools in Japan, and the world.
Renovations were done to the main building, and a huge gym was built. The gym consists of a full court basketball court, a gymnastics/dance floor, a workout floor which had the wrestling, fighting, yoga, etc. clubs located plus all the workout equipment, an Olympic sized pool, an ice skating/ice hockey ring, and a meditating floor which sports groups, or anyone went to, to help concentration, relax from stress, etc. It was beautiful. Beside it were the football field, soccer field, baseball field, and four extra fields for archery, or whatever else you needed them for. They were all built with retractable domes on the top, for rain, and unbearable heat, plus they had air conditioning. In the middle of four extra fields, was a control room. This is where you went to set up the fields to how you wanted, whether to set the domes, etc. Also, if you were practicing archery, you could go to the control room, press a few buttons, and targets would appear. You could also set up obstacle courses. In addition to the fields, there was a huge track. It had the perfect material for running
Kagome spent two class periods in the big building. These were her free classes. She was lucky, because everyone had classes in the main building, so she usually had the gym to herself. She didn't have to really come to school, or at least she thought so, but she had to earn all the required credits if she wanted to pass high school. She tried doing most of her credits during summer, and regular school, so she would only have to go to high school for three years instead of four, but luck was not on her side, she still had four credits to go. Her morning classes consisted of science, math, and English. Her last class was music, her favorite out of the four.
Kagome walked up to the building. It was huge, six floors in all. It was made out of brick and marble. Kagome walked up to the door. It was locked because no one was in there, but Kagome had a key. It was her personalized key. The school made it for her after they saw her “potential” as they said, but she had a feeling that there was more to that then just potential, but she wasn't about to complain.
She was even allowed to use the gym after she graduates, and when school is out. She pulled out her keys, and on it was her key card. She slid it threw the slot, and pressed her thumb to the fingerprint scanner to verify that the card was hers. The light turned green, and the door unlocked.
She opened the door, and was bombarded by the fresh coolness, compliments of the air conditioning. The doors locked on their own, after closing. She instantly went to the top floor, the meditation floor. She went to the elevator and took it up. When she stepped out of the elevator, she was met with the fresh scent of flowers and earth. The whole floor was set up like a huge garden with thick, lush grass; exotic flowers; and small ponds and streams to provide relaxing sounds and a relaxing environment. Kagome liked to spend time here first, then go on with her other plans. She sat down on a moss covered boulder, and began meditating.
Every time Kagome meditated, she felt like there was something that wanted to be released inside her, like it was calling to her. She tried and tried to reach it, but something would keep her from reaching her desired goal, that is why she did so many things. There wasn't a sport that Kagome hadn't tried. Kagome had read so many books and done so many puzzles, that she had pretty much learned what they were teaching in high school. Kagome thought that by being better physically and mentally, that one day, she might just figure out what is inside of her, but sadly that day hasn't arrived. She always became frustrated after she meditated. “Isn't that the opposite of what mediation is suppose to accomplish?” she thought crossly. So every time after she became frustrated, it gave her incentive to do something physical, but today her knee was killing her along with her stomach, so she had to deal with the frustration.
Kagome decided to take a nap; a nap never hurt anyone. She concentrated on the beating of her heart, and soon fell asleep.
………
-RING!!!!!!!- the bell sounded.
Kagome sat upright, her eyes trying to focus on her surroundings. She put her hand on her heart, willing it to slow down. Once Kagome realized that it was just the bell, she laid back down. “Only the bell, I have one more period left until 6th,” she muttered to herself. She turned around and leaned against her arm, she saw her watch out of the corner of her eye, and looked at the time. She sat upright.
“SHIT!!” she screamed. It was time for 6th period. She must have not hear the first bell. “Shit shit shit shit,” she kept repeating to herself as she ran, as best she could, to her music class.
She ran in class 5 min. late.
“Nice of you to join us Ms. Higurashi,” said Myouga, the music instructor.
“Sorry sensei,” Kagome said, bowing, “It won't happen again.”
“It better not,” he said, but he smiled at her, and pointed to her spot with his baton. She hurried out to her spot and took her viola out. She saw her new friends standing in the front of the room
“Now where was I before I was interrupted.. O yes.. the new students Inuyasha Taisho, Koga Ookami, and Miroku Houshi. Please state what you play for everyone to hear.
“Cello, guitar, and saxophone,” said Inuyasha.
“Base, guitar, and trombone,” said Koga.
“Violin, piano, and percussion,” said Miroku.
“Now that we're introduced, please sit in spots with your names on them, you will be playing with you main string instrument, and we will now play “Moonlight Sonata” by Beethoven. Ms. Higurashi if you please,” Myouga said pointing to the piano.
Kagome loved this song. It was her favorite; she knew the music by heart. Myouga waved the baton to signal for them to start. They slowly began to play. The beautiful melody of the piano rang out. Kagome's eyes closed as she let the music guide her; her fingers knew what to do. Her father used to play this song for her when she was younger. Her eyes started to tear when she thought of her father.
“Now is not the time for that,” Kagome scolded herself harshly, but she could not prevent the pain from getting to her. The pain she was feeling affected the music. The music that was normally calming took on a sad tint, taking on the sound of being lost and alone. Slowly and slowly people stopped playing and turned to look at her. Kagome was too far lost in the sad song she had made it, that she didn't notice the lack of music while she was playing. Even Myouga stopped conducting to hear the sad melody she had made the song seem. Everyone became entranced in the song; no one dared make a sound.
As Kagome finished playing the last chord, she realized how quiet everything and everyone was. She opened her eyes, glistening from the unshed tears she had stubbornly refused to let fall.
“Sorry Myouga-sensei,” Kagome whispered, “I don't know what came over me.” Myouga seemed to snap out of his trance, and smiled at her. He has known Kagome since she was a small child. He knew the reason for her sadness.
“It's ok,” he replied, and with that, the bell rang.
Kagome wiped her eyes, and rushed out of the classroom. Inuyasha, Koga, and Miroku quickly followed after her. Kagome quickly walked to her locker and retrieved her books. The halls were eerily quiet, and she heard whispers about a sad song. Kagome quickly gathered her belongings and went outside to her car so she could get home to her mother. Her mother always knew how to make her happy. She was just about to get into her car when someone grabbed and pulled on her arm.
“Gaaaaa!” Kagome yelled as she fell back on a very muscular chest. Kagome looked up and saw Inuyasha holding her with worry in his eyes.s
“What the hell Kagome,” he said. “What the hell was that back there, about the song, and then running out of class like u did?”
“I don't want to talk about it,” Kagome whispered not looking at either of her three friends. She couldn't tell them, or she would break down and cry. She knew she would feel guilty for not telling them, because they might be hurt because they wouldn't feel trusted, so she decided to change the topic.
“Hey guys,” she said, “how about u guys come over for dinner, I'm sure my mother would be thrilled to meet you guys.”
The guys shared a glance and decided they could.
“We would love too,” Miroku said.
“Alright then.. who wants to ride with me?” Kagome asked.
After much arguing, Miroku got to ride with Kagome, and they were off.
Kagome pulled up to the shrine, and five minutes later, Koga and Inuyasha drove up.
“Damn Kagome,” said Miroku, “You're so fast.. I like that in a woman. Hm.. I wonder if you're that fast in the bedroom as well, I would love to see.” Kagome's face turned beet red out of embarrassment and anger.
“Run,” she said, and ran after him.
“Anxious I see,” Miroku gave a devilish grin and suggestive wink. Kagome stopped in midstep and fell backwards, only to be caught by Koga.
“Stop talking like that to my woman,” he yelled.
“Kagome is not you're woman,” Inuyasha yelled. “Great,” Kagome thought, “just great, children.”
“Children,” Kagome said, “settle down. MIROKU.. IF YOU MOVE YOUR HAND ANY LOWER I WILL MAKE SURE YOU DON'T HAVE ANY HANDS LEFT, AND KOGA IF YOU SAY I'M YOUR WOMAN AGAIN, I'LL MAKE SURE YOU WON'T EVER HAVE ANY WOMAN AGAIN, AND INUYASHA IF YOU EVEN OPEN YOUR MOUTH I AM GOING TO CUT YOUR TONGUE OUT AND MAKE YOU EAT IT! DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR?” Everyone looked at her.
“You don't have to yell,” they grumbled simultaneously at her.
“Ok then,” she said happily, “lets go inside.” The guys looked at each other `mood swings' and each cringed.
Kagome led the way up the steps and opened the front door.
“Mom!” she yelled, “I'm home!” She barely finished saying that, and a woman her age came and tackled her, but didn't fall since Miroku caught them.
“Kagome!” she yelled, “It's been so long sister.”
“Sango!!” Kagome yelled as soon as she realized that her cousin was hugging her. Sango was Kagome's cousin on her father's side, (Sango's mother was Kagome's father's sister), but they were so close, that they considered each other sisters. Sango was alssmost a year older than her, but due to her birthday being passed the cut-off date, they were both in the same grade.
Sango felt a hand grab her butt, and stiffened in shock that Kagome would do something like that, while their mothers might be looking anyways, and noticed that the hand that grabbed her ass was much larger, and not letting go.
Miroku was in heaven. Two beautiful ladies were in his arms. The second lady, Sango was her name, had the most beautiful lavender-colored eyes he had ever seen, and an ass he could never tire of groping. She had straight raven colored hair, which contrasted with her milky white skin. “So beautiful,” Miroku sighed.
As Sango raised her eyes up to the man who currently had was fondling her ass, but was met with beautiful navy eyes, and a glimpse of a 6-pack where he left the top button of his shirt undone. She noticed the glazed look in his eyes as he squeezed again, and anger took hold, he was touching her ass for at least 5 minutes.
“Hentai!” she yelled and threw up her fist to punch him.
Kagome saw it coming and quickly ducked between them and rolled out of the way. Miroku almost groaned as he felt Kagome slide down his front, but was met with one hell of a right hook to his cheek. The last thing he saw before he fell unconscious was a goddess with her hair flying around her and fire in her lavender eyes as full breasts rose and fell with each breath she took. “There is a god,” was the last thing he thought before he thought no more.
“I think you killed him,” Kagome said poking Miroku with her shoe. Two middle-aged ladies came running out of the house. “Kagome, Sango,” yelled the closest one, Kagome's mother, “what happened, we heard a scream, and who are these three gentlemen?”
“They are Koga and Inuyasha, and the pervert on the ground is Miroku, he had an unfortunate run-in with Sango,” said Kagome. Sango's mother, Karei, instantly drew her into a bear hug.
“It's been so long Kagome,” said Karei, “ and my how you've grown. Sango, why were you yelling earlier?”
“That stupid Miroku grabbed my ass!” came Sango's disgruntled reply.
“Language young lady,” reprimanded her mother. “Ayumi, now that Sango is going to be staying here, I hope you teach her to be a proper lady.”
“Will do,” laughed Ayumi, Kagome's mother, as she saw Sango stick her tongue out at her mom while Kagome laughed at them.
“Hey Inu, here's your chance to become a proper lady, go sign yourself up,” said Koga grinning.
“Shut up Koga, why don't you sign up considering you fight like a girl,” snarled Inuyasha.
“Yeah right!” exclaimed Koga. “I could beat you so bad that you would wish you were a girl, but I don't know why you would do that considering you are a girl, and those ramen noodles you love could probably put up more of a fight than you ever could.”
Before Inuyasha could even say a comeback, two preteens ran out of the house.
“Look Kohaku!” exclaimed Sota, “ there's gonna be a fight! Who do you bet on? I bet on the one with silver hair!” And thus their conversation turned on to bets on who was going to win.
Inuyasha and Koga resumed their testosterone-fueled insults.
Karei and Ayumi were busy telling each other wonderfully embarrassing stories about their daughters, and each daughter in turn went from laughing at the other and gasping in horror.
Kagome's grandfather comes hobbling out and pokes his walking stick into the unconscious Miroku.
“What are your intentions towards my granddaughter?!” he screams. “Speak louder boy! I cannot hear you! What are your intentions?? Speak louder I said!!” and on and on he went, never once realizing the boy was unconscious and not very soft-spoken.
A middle-aged man comes outside and sees the commotion. He has brown hair and brown eyes, and he had a medium build. He tries to ask his wife, Karei, something, but everyone else is very loud. He looks around. His left eye starts to twitch.
“QUIET!!!” his voice booms over all the other sounds. Everyone quiets and looks at him. “Karei, darling, what's for dinner?” he asks.
Everyone sweat drops and starts laughing.
“What is so funny?” he asks confused.
“It's ok Kasai,” Karei laughs. “Perhaps it is time for a snack, but you will have to wait for dinner.” Everyone starts to go inside.
“What about Miroku?” asks Sango. Miroku is still unconscious.
“Remind me never to get on her bad side,” whispers Koga to Inuyasha.
“What was that?” Sango asks, her left eye twitching. Koga and Inuyasha both took a step back from the temperamental woman.
“You got that from your father,” said Karei.
“That's my girl!” said Kasai patting her hard on the back. “Show them the evil left twitching eye!” Sango sweatdropps.
“I think we should leave him out here until he comes back from where ever he is currently, and by the looks of his face, I say I don't want to know,” said Koga.
Before they all got inside, Kagome's grandfather turned to Miroku fully and puffed his chest out. “I say boy, I will give you one last chance, state your intentions for my granddaughter.”
“Grandfather!” Kagome squeaked and took his hand and led him inside. Laughter met her inside.
Gods she loved her family.
