“Cock-a-doodle dandy! It’s breakfast time, chica!”
“What?” A groggy Kagome sat up and yawned, not really noticing the figure in her room until she stared. “What are you doing in my dorm?!” She shrieked, jumping out of her bed.
The brown-eyed girl in the middle of her room waved her hands frantically in front of her face and laughed. “No, no, no! I was assigned to show you the ropes of TPAA. Fluffy gave me an extra key.”
“Who?” Kagome asked, still trying to figure out why the girl didn’t knock.
“Fluffy. Sesshomaru?” Kagome made an “o” with her mouth and nodded. The girl continued. “Every time a new student comes here, which isn’t that often, believe me, a student who has already been here a while shows the new student around, which means we have most of the same classes. Got it?”
Kagome nodded. “But who…?”
“Oh! I’m Sango, by the way. Sorry, I forgot your name. Kadote?”
“Kagome.”
Sango nodded and pulled her hair into a high ponytail and opened her brown leather backpack that she had dropped. She pulled out a white, button-up collared, short-sleeved shirt and a green, black, and purple plaid, pleated skirt. She tossed them to Kagome.
“Your uniform, just like the rest of the girls’ who live in this section are. Mine too!” Kagome noticed Sango was wearing the same uniform also.
“Um…what do you mean ‘section’?” She asked. Sango crawled onto her bed and shut the blinds, then plopped down.
“I’ll tell you while you get dressed.” Kagome nodded. “There are four different sections to this school. They are based on your craft. For example, we have dance, vocal, art, band, and theater. Both of us are in the art section, but we can join a chorus in vocal, dance group in dance, or audition for a play in theater.
“Like me. I’ve only been here about a month and a half, but I’m in a dance and band group as well. It depends on the day of the week to what classes I go to. But you don’t have to join something else, but it is a lot of fun.”
Sango stopped and looked at Kagome, who was trying to digest all the information.
“Today, Kagome, you’ll go to the office building that you went to last night when you first came here, and Rin will help you set up your classes okay?” Kagome nodded and pulled at her shirt. “Oh, you might want to tuck that in, sort of loose though, like mine. It looks cool and obeys the dress code. All you need now is some white knee-length socks, which you have right?” Kagome nodded again. “Good. Put those socks on and those brown shoes that was on your supply list and we’re off to see Rin!”

Scene Change

After an hour of deciding and debating with Rin and Sango, Kagome finally got her schedule. She studied it carefully. “Today’s Tuesday, so…” She looked to the column that said Tuesday and read off her classes aloud to Sango.
“Period one, math. Period two, gym. Period three, social studies. Period four, English. Period five, hip-hop dance.”
“Yea, you’re with me!” Sango exclaimed, picking up her backpack.
Kagome smiled and continued. “Period six, lunch. Period seven, drama. Period eight, science. Period nine, manga characters.” She sighed. “That’s a lot. Oh, well.”
“Come on, Kagome! We’re going to be late!” Sango grabbed her wrist and they ran towards the gym. First period was over already. Each class was an hour, Rin had explained. Kagome adjusted her backpack and followed Sango until she stopped. “We’re here. Come on, we need to get into our gym uniforms.”
Kagome nodded and followed Sango into the girl’s locker room. She pulled out her uniform from her backpack and quickly put it on. Sango waited for her as she put on her sneakers. They walked quickly outside into the nice fall breeze just in time for attendance.
Once the attendance was taken and Kagome explained that she was new, Sango led her over to a small group in the back of the class and they sat down.
“This is Kagome, guys, she’s new. Be nice and don’t bite yet, okay?” Sango smiled.
Kagome smiled at the group. “Hi everyone.”
They nodded and smiled slightly at the newcomer. Sango sighed dramatically. “You dingbats, tell her your names!”
They all jumped slightly except one. The first one to speak up was a redheaded girl with pigtails and green eyes. She smiled.
“I’m Ayame! I’m in the band section and I play flute. I’m in vocal, too. What are you in?”
“I’m in dance, theater, and my main thing is art. Manga.” Kagome brushed a strand of hair behind her ear. Ayame smiled.
The next person Kagome was introduced to was a boy with black hair in a ponytail and piercing blue eyes. He came right up to her face- literally- and grasped her hands.
“I’m Koga. I’m in dance also. Maybe we’ll see each other.”
Kagome pulled her hands away gently and set them in her lap. “Maybe we will.”
Almost immediately after, she felt something groping her butt. She screamed and jumped up, looking behind her at the culprit. A boy with a ponytail tied at the nape of his neck and violet eyes looked up at her innocently.
“what the heck were you just doing?!” Kagome screamed.
“Um…” The boy smiled shyly. “I’m Miroku?”
Sango sighed. “He’s in theatre and art. He does sculptures. Mostly of women. At least he doesn’t suck at it.” Kagome sat down on the other side of Sango, keeping an eye out for any wandering hands. There was a slap and Sango started yelling at Miroku. Koga and Ayame were talking quietly. Kagome looked straight ahead of her. She noticed she hadn’t met the boy before, so she stood and sat next to him.
“Hi. I’m Kagome. What’s your name?”
The boy’s dark violet eyes focused their attention on her. He ran a hand through his black hair. “Inuyasha, fifteen. Art, specifically manga, and dance. Got all my info, now go away.”
Kagome’s eyebrows drew together. “What’s your problem? I was just trying to be nice.”
Inuyasha snorted. “Whatever. I’m not really in a chatty mood right now, so go take your niceness and shove it up your--”
“Alright class, warm-ups!” The teacher yelled.
Kagome stood and walked over to Sango. “Jeez…what’s up with him?”
Sango had noticed Kagome had tried to talk to Inuyasha. “He just got word last night that his girlfriend died. He’s not very friendly right now.”
“Oh.” Kagome swallowed. “How did she die?”
Sango met her eyes. “Murdered in her room.”
Kagome felt a pang in her chest as she looked back at Inuyasha. “Oh…”
“We all tried to talk to him about it, but he won’t talk.” Sango said, looking over at him and sighing. “The poor guy felt so bad. He was on his way over to her room to pick her up for a date when she was…attacked.” Kagome moved her gaze to Sango. “The police are saying she was raped first.”.
Kagome felt tears prick at her eyes. “That’s so sad.”
Sango just nodded.
Everything went smoothly until fifth period: Hip-hop dance. Sango was in that class with her….but so was Inuyasha. Once everyone was changed into their “dance clothes” of black, the class started with Rin as their teacher. She split the class into three groups. Kagome was naturally with Sango, and Inuyasha completed the group. Kagome noticed there was only about ten people in the studio.
Their assignment was to make up dance moves for a certain song. “Alright class, get going!” She yelled.
Inuyasha, Kagome, and Sango headed over to one side of the dance studio and got to work.
“How good are you?” Inuyasha asked, surprising Kagome. She opened her mouth to speak but he cut her off. “I hope you aren’t one of those hip-hop wannabees.”
Kagome glared at him. “I’m pretty good.” She answered. She sat against the wall and stretched. Inuyasha and Sango followed suit.
Rin came around and gave everyone a CD with the song they were to dance to on it. So everyone could here and not be distracted, each group got a room. Kagome’s group stayed in the studio. They listened to their song first. It was Let’s get it started by Black Eyed Peas.
After it was finished, Inuyasha stood and told Kagome to stand also.
“I know Sango can do these moves we set up before you got here. But I’m not sure if you can.”
Kagome rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. “Let’s see them, then.”
Sango started the song as Inuyasha danced to it. As Kagome memorized the moves, she couldn’t help but think how beautifully Inuyasha moved. The song was over and Inuyasha took a sip of his water, wiping some sweat off his forehead. He inclined his head to show it was her turn. Kagome raised an eyebrow and moved to where Inuyasha had been standing. She nodded at Sango to start the music.
She did the moves perfectly, adding her own style to it, her own spice. When the song ended again, she smiled and took some water. “Well?” She asked Inuyasha.
Inuyasha sighed. “Your moves are sloppy, your ankles are weak, you aren’t in shape for dancing, and you obviously haven’t done this in a while. You need a lot of practice and I don’t have time to take baby steps with you.”
Kagome lowered the water bottle and twisted the top back on. She let it hang loose by her side as she turned and walked right out the door.
