Kagome's Song
 
 
 
“I'm off!”
 
“Good-bye Kagome! Have a good day at school!”
 
The 15-year old school girl trotted down the steps to her house. She walked along peacefully through the large shrine that encircled her house.
 
~
 
Kagome: Little shrine, like a quiet village; every day like the one before. Little shrine, till I reach the city, where the people are…
 
[Kagome exits the shrine gates and enters downtown Tokyo…]
 
Man: Konnichiwa!
 
Woman: Good day!
 
Someone else: Hello!
 
And another person: Hello!
 
Ya know: Hello!
 
Kagome: There go the venders with their cases, like always; the same old junk and things to sell. Every morning just the same, and I'll probably go insane in this rich and busy town.
 
Vender: Ohayo, Girl!
 
Kagome: Morning, sir.
 
Vender: Where you off to?
 
Kagome: To the school building. I just finished the hardest assignment! We had to…
 
Vender: Yoshida! The sushi! Hurry up!
 
Fellow School girls: Look, there she goes, that girl who's strange, no question. So into homework all the time.
 
Girl 1: With a dazed and far-out look.
 
Girl 2: And her head stuck in her work…
 
People: No denying she's a strange one, Kagome.
 
Man 1: Konnichiwa!
 
Woman 1: Good day!
 
Wan 1: How is your family?
 
Woman 2: Konnichiwa!
 
Man 2: Good day!
 
Woman 2: How is your WIFE!
 
Woman 3: I need miso!
 
Man 3: That's too expensive!
 
Kagome: There must be more that this provincial life!
 
[Kagome enters the school building, making it to class as the bell rings]
 
Teacher: Ah, Kagome.
 
Kagome: Good Morning, sensei! I've made it to class on time.
 
Teacher: Well, take a seat.
 
Classmates: Look at Kagome, she is so peculiar. I wonder if she's feeling well.
 
Boy: Not really part of the crowd.
 
Girl: And her head up in the clouds.
 
Teacher: Now listen class, it's time to start the day. [Begins writing on the board] Look, isn't this amazing…It's my favorite part because, you'll see! Here's how we find this angle…please turn in your geometry books to chapter 3.
 
[After school]
 
Girl 1: Now it's no wonder why the guys all like her…her looks have got no parallel.
 
Girl 2: But behind that fair façade, I'm afraid she's kinda odd…very different from the rest of us is her…
 
Boy: Wow, you didn't miss a single problem, Hojo! You're the smartest guy in the whole school.
 
Hojo: Thank you.
 
Boy: No entrance exam around stands a chance against you, and no girl for that matter.
 
Hojo: And I've got my eyes set on that one.
 
Boy: Higurashi?
Hojo: [nod] Right from the moment when I met her, saw her, I said she's perfect and I fell. For in school there's only she who is good enough for me…so I'm making plans to take Kagome out.
 
Girls: Look there he goes! Isn't he dreamy! Classmate, Hojo! Oh he's too cute! He stole my heart, I'm hardly breathing! He's such a smart and totally awesome guy…
 
[Hojo leaves the school grounds after Kagome through the city streets]
 
Boy 1:  Hey!
 
Hojo: Pardon
 
Man 2: Good day
 
Man 3: Konnichiwa!
 
Matron: You call this bacon?
 
Woman 1: What lovely grapes!
 
Man 4: Some cheese
 
Woman 2: Ten yards!
 
Man 4: One pound
 
Hojo: 'scuse me!
 
Cheese merchant: I'll get the knife
 
Hojo: Please let me through!
 
Woman 1: This pan -
 
Man 5: Those fish -
 
Woman 1:  It's stale!
 
Man 5:  They smell!
 
Baker: It's you're mistake
 
Kagome: I must get home before for dinner I'm late!
 
Hojo: Just watch. I'm going to take Kagome on a date!
 
School girls following Hojo: Look there she goes that girl who's strange, but special! Hojo wants to go out with her! Though peculiar as she is, she's good enough for him. And she'll never miss a day of school…she really is a funny girl…a lucky but a funny girl…she really is a strange one, Kagome!

Kagome finally reached the shrine. She opened the door to her house, finding her grandfather sitting on the floor with an open box of junk.
 
“What are you doing, Grandpa?”
 
“Just looking though some of the store merchandise.”
 
“What is that?” she asked, seeing the oddly shaped key ring.
 
“It's the Shikon no Tama.”
 
“Shikon no - wha???”
 
“Shikon no Tama, my girl. It's a replica of an ancient jewel which…”
 
Kagome teased her cat, Buyo, with the key chain, watching him reach, reach, reach…before falling over.
 
“As I was saying…”
 
Replica this…Authentic that. Here everything's got a story…
 
Kagome left the room, Buyo following her as she walked out into the large backyard.
 
“Nothing but old stuff…” she mumbled to Buyo, who had started walking away. “Can you imagine? Me growing up to do something like that? Being a part of this boring, stuffy…”
 
~
 
Kagome: Madam Priestess! Can't you just see it? In this old place, trapped forever! No sir! Not me! I guarantee it! I want much more than this provincial life!!
 
I want adventure in the great wide somewhere; I want it more than I can tell! And for once I'd like to see something different just for me…I want so much more than there is here…

Suddenly, her brother Souta came running.
 
“Kagome! Buyo's gone into the well house!”
 
“What??”

Well…you know the rest of that one too. (Just in case though, she falls in the well and comes out in the Feudal Era…)
