Part III~~~~~~~~~~~~~

_______________________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________________________________ __________________________________

Kagome was leaning backward as the back of her head touched the crusty mirror out of sheer surprise. While the mystery boy leaned closer and closer almost touching noses.

"Uh….." Kagome stammered stupidly out of a moment brain fart. This guy was really forward!

"Well, my dear it looks like were all alone, and I have been rather lonely lately. Oh! Your hands are freezing lemme warm them up with my exquisite techniques of….umm…warming pretty ladies hands!"

He finished in weak triumph.

Before she could get mad she cocked her head to the sided out of utter fascination for a split second and registered what he said. She almost laughed out loud. "Wait, you have a technique for rubbing hands? You really need to work on better pick up lines, and…." However her words were cut short when they heard the bathroom door creak open sharply and the sound of casual clicks of heels could be heard.

A girl of about 17 with straightened dark hair walked around the partition separating them from sight and stopped dead as she saw the position the Kagome and her newly acquired male friend was. However she didn't have the reaction Kagome wold have expected. She expected her to run out apologizing profusely or laugh and carry on her business (even if it was a boys bathroom). However instead, her eyes widened in absolute shock and Kagome could see blood rushing to her face as she barreled straight into Miroku taking him by the front of his shirt ruffly and waving her hand frantically in the air screaming most angrily.

The sudden a shrill of her furious voice echoed off the bathroom walls causing anyone unfortunate enough to be inside to have a slight hearing problem for a couple of seconds after the exploding noise ceased.

"Idiot hentai! I leave you for one freakin second and hear I find you here with ANOTHER girl!!!! You are such a stupid no good cheating boyfriend who can't keep his itchy palms to himself for one stupid period!!!!…..Hey, wait, who are you?"

Kagome was so transfixed on the new girl's ranting and the apparent perverted boy's cowering that she barely heard the callous yet inquisitive question shot her way. Her leader instincts wanted to yell respect, but however this girl was opening the floodgates of her memories with her distinctive posture and demeanor. It was just like all of her girls……all of her family…

"Hey, are you deaf or something? I have never seen you here before, why were you holding Miroku's hand. Oh shut up Miroku I'm not listening to you at the moment I wanna hear it from her!" She said gruffly while turning her pointed questions back to the ex-gang leader. "And why are you in the boy's restroom? The slim violet eyed girl questioned, obviously still annoyed with the current situation and lack of understanding.

So Kagome calmly looked her straight in the eye ,as if testing her character with her gaze, and said in a soft yet steady voice, "I am Kagome, Kagome Hiragarshi. I am a transfer student, and to answer your second question I just wanted to light a pack of smokes…or chew on them rather as it seems…". She finished the last part of the sentence quietly to herself as she stared frustratingly as the habit she couldn't break twiddling harmlessly in the fingers.

She then gazed up to the new girl again only to surprisingly find a small grin on her face, as if she now found the situation to be funny. To this Kagome actually couldn't stop the small grin that touched her eyes slightly as the girls made an inner connections in the span on a couple moments. She remotely drawn to this girl in a sisterly way. Like one of her own fighters….darn…she had to let that go…it was in the past….she had to stop thinking of them! But how?

Her thoughts were once again interrupted by the young girl's voice evidently contented with her answer as she continued to smirk.

"Oh, well you're new huh? You seem pretty ok to me. My name is Sango. Transfer student huh? Wow, where did you come from. Man, it seems like I have hear Hiragarshi before, but where?" Not stopping to exactly let Kagome process an answer, Sango continued to plow with an idly intrigued look on her face. Not noticing as Kagome finally registered what Sango had just said. "Yeah I'm pretty sure I have heard that name before. Perhaps a famous uncle or maybe you parents?" She asked innocently totally ignoring the fidgety Miroku behind her and Kagome now passive face once more.

"No, there are no special people in my boring family I'm afraid, totally normal I guess." Kagome replied with complete flawlessness and grace.

How could someone have heard the name all the way across the nation. Was her gang that infamous? Was she? "I guess I never really thought about it…" She sighed mentally drained from thinking about her acquired five minutes of fame.

I hope you like it here, I mean its pretty ok compared to all the other dingy high schools in this drab city. Just don't judge us from whatever this hentai did to you! Which reminds me….."

She broke off and a resounding slap filled the stalls and the entire restroom soundly. As the last echo was fading a sense of finality filled the are and all was silent as the echo died on the tile walls.

"There! That was for the two girls yesterday!!!! Oh yeah!! I know that your were up too! Inuyasha told me where you were at lunch yesterday, and it WASN'T tutoring that fairy Hobo!!!!! Your such a jerk sometimes!!! I mean don't you even respect me as your girlfriend you hentai!!!"

Sango was obviously livid but from what Kagome could gather from her fierce rant could only be measured by her intense affection for this perverted-in-a-charming-way, Miroku. To that she inwardly smirked. They seemed to care for each other truly if you looked past the superficial flaws of both. And as far as she could tell Miroku had a whole bunch.

"Now, now my dear Sango!!! Are you going to judge me from the false statements of Inuyasha…oh come one you know he never…."

However, whatever he was about to say was cut off when a growl of a voice came from behind the entrance of the bathroom and penetrated every corner of the everechoing area.

"Don't even finish that sentence Monk! You know full well where you were and I know for a fact it wasn't…."

However his sentence was cut off sort as his eyes registered who was siting on the moldy dripping sink. Kagome had to hold her emotions in as she always did so well as her eyes caught the glorious sight of the half demon she had met earlier. And like one voice Kagome and Inuyasha breathed a surprisingly venomous "YOU!"

All Kagome could do was leer dispassionately as he made his way slowly beside Miroku, not bothering to help him up from his earlier encounter with Sango. He just glared back in aggressive confusion, which quickly turned into the smugness that made Kagome's eyes narrowa fraction of an inch that no one could even tell. She hated when guys made that face…the face a pure dominance!

"Well, if it isn't Miss. Dangerously Dark!"

Kagome who was never really intimidated by anyone at all, suddenly found herself on fire with an urge to snap out of utter rage! She hadn't ever talked or faced anyone like him, mostly because she didn't give them the time of day but his guy was just like nails on a chalk board to her or was he. All the guys she came in contact with were either totally turned off by her distant personality or scared off and intimidated by her aggressive nature.

However this guy had only seen her distant nature, even when she tried to bond with him in first block. She had given him a chance and then when he snuffed it, she snuffed him. Plain and simple. She couldn't control the surge of pure resentment that flowed through her at this half demon! Now though he pursued as if trying to get to her. She knew it, and if he wanted it he'd have to work harder. She was a tuff egg to crack, with a hard past.

"Hmm, yeah. Your that guy in my first block that seemed to have fun being the classes `living chew toy' right?". She replied cockily looking him square in the eye while trying to hide the interested gleam appearnt in her own eyes at the intersting match of wills. However she once again found herself struggleing to maintain a level of control. This guy was gorgeous. She just had to know more about his guy, she just had to push him further.

To that statement Inuyasha's eyes widen and his mouth turned into a toothed snarl complete with a glistening fang. "Oi, girl you're lucky that you're not one of those preps, or I'd shred you in half!"

To Inuyasha's inner delight he saw her eyes widen a fraction in sheer surprise. He could tell that he was the only one to see this, with his perceptive senses. This girl was good at hiding her true self. But what was it that she was hiding, he justhad to push this girl little further.

"Man, her eyes are so blue, such a beautiful bl…..grr…snap out of it!!" He growled inwardly as he glared back her with the force only a Youkia could posses let alone even half of one. He was truly firece.

"Gee thanks I'll take that into account next time I go have the urge to buy clothes from Abrocrombie & Fitch!" She snidely replied gaining volume. However as his intense gaze switched to a slightly curious one she felt she was actually letting too much emotion through the dam she had so long built up. Never, never must she take out her past horrors on others. Never, not even on this deserving victim. She couldn't break her promise of her past to herself. That would be a sin.

So Kagome decided the best way to end it with her pride intact was to huff and then she just broke the eye contact by slowly gliding her vision to her twiddling cigarette between her slender fingers. She then presently scowled to herself as if deep concentration while pondering how to keep her emotions in check and past hidden. A obvious inner turmoil not going unnoticed by only Inuyasha as he looked at the downcast face..

"Why am I so affected by his presence? ….I have to be stronger than this…he is only a man...a mere Hanyou for Kami's sake! No, that's not it, him being a Hanyou and surviving only makes him stronger than the average demon. Everyone knows they have it the toughest in the world today. He's just do different so incredibly…grr…but how can he affect me more than the sight of Naraku!?" She thought in a desperate ragged inner voice.

After this she raised her head slowly and to meet Inuyasha's as he saw they had once again steeled over making her once sparkling blue to meet a dusty gray-blue of stone. Inuyasha started to this. How was it that this girl could open up in the slight chance of a challenge but close up again so suddenly?

Miroku who had said nothing while watching the quick but effective interaction between Inuyasha and Kagome, took this time to come around between Kagome and Sango and lay a comforting hand on each their shoulders.

Miroku smiled a charming grin, in which flashed a perfect set of pearly whites and said in the utmost cheerfulness, "Mrs. Kagome it looks like the inevitable has happened and you're now apart of our group! It's a little frayed here and there, but anyone who can look Inuyasha in the eye and survive without a scratch or a amputated limb is truly one of us!"

He broke of laughing but quickly ceased seeing the look in Sango eyes as she followed his hand which was slowly making it's way down Kagome's back. Sango just simply brushed by him harshly, brusquely pushing him away and hindering him from his further actions.

As Miroku made sweting and bowing gestures Sango smiled a genuine smile which lightly touched her viloet eyes, saying, "Finally! We needed someone like you to break up the macho testosterone in this group. Not there's much to begin with but still! I have to live with it day in and day out!!!"

Kagome couldn't help but dip her head in appreciation and nod her two companions. She truly felt like she could trust them enough to hang around with them for a while, and that made her feel wonderfully normal. And that was her gaol wasn't it? To appear normal for as long as possible.

However when she turned to Inuyasha to nod a thanks to him she saw him looking at her intently but as she searched for the meaning of such a glance. He then just turned away slightly as he noticed her probing and nodded to the wall saying a distinct, "Keh!"

"Well," Commented Miroku, with that devious smile she could tell could only belong to him. "I dunno if its what you expected but were not the most popular around here. I mean I am with the ladies…" This got a couple a snorts from Inuyasha and a 'fwap' from Sango on the arm, "However as you could observe most people in this school are very rich and superficial."

"In other words they're sluts, whores, and boob jobs that only care about `daddies money'." Said Sango in a monotone yet cynical way giving Kagome a playful wink as Miroku looked utterly offended.

"I protest Miss Sango! Most of them I have to at least ask twice to have my children before they'd agree!"

"And I punch them in the face and drag you away! Kami! Miroku you such a man whore!!!!" Sango cut in, in an ever increasing angry tone.

"Well thanks a lot for the invitation, I'm grateful! It good to have accquaintances…oh and please don't call me 'Miss Kagome' anymore Miroku." Said Kagome truly thankful even if she didn't show it that much on the outside. Her inner self even did a little dance of happiness (HeeHee!! ^_^)

"Well now that were all chummy, can we go eat?!? The bells about to ring for first lunch and I don't want that Wimpy Wolf kicking us outta a seat today. But even if he does I show him his place…"

Growled Inuyasha in a pleased menacing way that would make a normal guy cringe in anticipation but made the others even Kagome just raise an unimpressed eyebrow.

"Yes, your Royal gruffness lets be on our way!" Sango replied in mock humor.

Kagome had to crack a smile at the look that appeared on the disgruntled hanyou's face as Sango sardonically bowed. This made Inuyasha's red face turn into an equal curious expression as he looked at her, and she realized she had actually smiled!!! She quickly turned her face stony again and raised another unimpressed eyebrow his way.

The annoyingly high pitched bell chose that precise time to chime its aggravating squeal as they made there way down the hall to the adventure known as `Lunch'. Little did Kagome know was someone from her inescapable past right in front of her as she started to finally loosen up and talk freely to her new friends.

She suddenly felt very normal in the middle of three people that seemed to want to talk to her and get to know her as a normal teenage girl. That was rare and shed grasp on to it for as long as possible.

How? How could she have found a family away from her other `family' so quickly. Why? Why did this feel so right and why was something good happening to her? She knew she didn't deserve it. She looked slightly at Sango who just continued to smile while stealing glances at Miroku again and again as if monitoring his every mood.

Yes, this was something she could get used too.

HEY!!! Thanks for reading!! God Bless!!

OH!! And R&R!!!!
