InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Little Red, A Mockery ❯ Doomed... ( Chapter 2 )
[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
".....and we need full cooperation. Unfortunately...."
The teachers voice just seemed to drone on and on, boring her already fuzzy mind. It wasn't as though drama class really taught her anything. Rin had always been an avid fan of nearly every play, movie, opera, novel, or anything that involved characters getting into circumstances beyond their control. But she would rather have learned things on her own time, making a class she thought she would have loved, a big time downer.
Kohaku was doing no better. He had stopped taking notes a whil ago, prefering to stare at the wall. So far the teacher had said nthing of interest about the play except that it wasn't the conventional tale of little red riding hood. Instead she had done a little research and had found a play version of it written that featured little red as an adult. The story line was basically the same, only with minor differences.
Rin scoffed in her mind. Minor. Indeed. it wa a very minor difference that the heroine was now a fifteen year old girl, the wolf really a man with the nickname wolf thanks to his little "pet" collection who was trying to pursue red, and the woodcutter a young man who had suddenly turned into a love interest. The only simularity was the stupid red cape!!! And the grandmother's house in the woods!!!! The wealthy, reclusive grandmother. BAH! Stupid school and it's need to be different! Why couldn't they have just done something like Snow White? Snow White was simple, it was hard to change. If one ignored that one movie where the dwarves were actually normal sized men except for the one that was like six four who Snow White fell in love with and he did with her too. And the possessed baby bit was scary too.... But other than that it was still better than this version of Little Red Riding Hood they had found!
Kohaku poked her in the side and her attention returned back to class.
".... Red shall be played by Rin Takami, The woodcutter by a senior named...."
"Wait!" Rin said suddenly. Everyone turned in their seats to look at her.
"Yes Miss Takami?" Ms. Kuriko said, adjusting her glasses.
"Um....Don't we get to decide our parts? Like....sign up for them?"
"Well, if you had been listening earlier rather than staring off into the distance you would have heard me say that those with the top grades in this class are chosen to be the actors. Which means all A students are the actors, whereas B or lower get to help with the stage props. They get to choose what they do, but acting is a very serious thing and this play is going to be televised on the local channels. We need the best for this, and you are one of the best."
"Oh....." She sat back down, blushing as a few students snickered. Before she could bother listening to the rest her mind wandered again, this time to a tall young man with long silver hair....
oooooooooo
....who was currently staring at the clock in his trigonometry class, willing it to ring so he could get on with his day. His work was already done, and he was now bored senseless. Even his best friend Kouga was finished, and seeing as he was normally one of the last done, that means the bell should be....
BONGBONGBONGBONGBONG
The students immediately began shuffling their stuff together and turning in papers. Sesshomaru was one of the first out the door and into the halls, Kouga quickly at his side.
"Is it just me Sessh, or does it seem like it's gonna be a long day today?" He asked casually, earning a noncommital grunt in reply. Before Kouga could start speaking again an announcement came on over the PA.
"The students of the second,third and seventh blocks of the drama department are to report to room 101 during the fourth block of the day. Teachers have already been notified of this change of scheduling and the students will be allowed to make up any missed work. Thank you and have a good day!"
"Yep.....long day...." Kouga said with a roll of his eyes as they changed their route to go to a different class than normal.
oooooooooo
Apparently the schedule change had been a bad one. Second and third blocks were already large on their own, but now with seventh block in there as well the room was packed. Most of the students were on the floor or sitting randomly on the tables around the room, chatting about their day as they waited for the bell to ring. Kouga immediately spied his crush Kagome sitting in the corner of the room with Sesshomaru's brother and Kikyo, his brothers ex, and made a beeline towards them. Sesshomaru held back the urge to roll his eyes and looked about the room for a place to sit. And then there it was, the one chair left not taken by a student thanks to a rather large backpack sitting in it. He walked over and removed the offending bag, then took a seat next to the small girl sitting there. She looked over when she heard the thump of her bag on the floor.
"Hey!" She said, grabbing her bag and smoothing it over as though he had ruined it. He quirked an eyebrow when he noticed it was the girl from earlier.
"Hello midget." He said, turning to face her. She glared at him.
"I am most definitely not a midget." She said, giving a delicate sniff in emphasis. He immediately did a size comparison by placing his hands on her shoulders, then keeping them the same distance apart he moved them over to be about even with his own shoulders. She was literally half his size.
"That doesn't prove anything!!!"
His hands moved again, this time grabbing one of hers and forcing them together, palm to palm. His hand dwarfed hers. She gave a harumphing sound and sat back in her chair.
"So I'm tiny, what of it? That doesn't make me a midget!"
"Hn...." Was his reply. The bell rang for class and their teacher ran in looking flustered.
"Sorry about that, Mr. Oshi....Never mind, you don't need to know about that irritating, stubborn prat."
A few female students giggled. It was well-known that Mr. Oshiro fancied Ms. Kuriko seeing as the students who had the english class with him had seen him come in after lunch with tons of flowers, only to see him come in looking sad and dejected a few minutes later rambling about how she would never love him. Other teachers took bets on when they would get together or when Ms. Kuriko would finally kill him, jokingly of course, while half the student body was out to either help him get her or help her avoid him. Whatever the side one thing was obvious. Mr. Oshiro was in love, and Ms. Kuriko hated him.
"Anyways, I'm glad to see that most of you came to class instead of going to your regulars, and I'm sure that most of you are wondering what this play is about. Well...."
A late student ran through the doors, red hair bouncing in its pigtails as she went to the teacher and handed her a tardy note.
"Thank you Ayame." Ms. Kuriko said as Ayame ran off to go join her best friend, Kanna on the floor. "Anyways, as I was saying, this play is a spoof of Little Red Riding Hood titled Little Red, A Mockery, and the story is..."
oooooooooo
Unfortunately I have to stop here seeing as I cannot reveal the story of "Little Red, A Mockery" without revealing the rest of the story. For those of you who have read "Petals in the Wind," yes, this is another tons of couples thing. I can't help it, I love romance! ::cuddles anything remotely romantic:: Yay! Romance!
Yes, Sesshy is gonna be OOC, as is Rin, but not as much as I could make them. For example:
Sessh- ::cuddles Rin:: MINE!
Rin- ::trying to get away:: No! I don't like being touched!
Sessh- ::cuddles some more:: MINE!
Rin- NO! STOP IT! SIT BOY!
Sessh- ::falls to ground thanks to subjication beads suddenly appearing around neck:: Owww....
Rin- FLOWERS! ::runs away to pick flowers::
See? In the manga/anime he's not cuddly and freakishly possessive, and Rin would never "sit" him or say say she doesn't like being touched in response to a good cuddle. Or at least I hope not.... Anyways, read and review!
