Nagataka

Chapter 4

Kagome sat on the rock for several hours, lost in thought at what Inu Yasha had said and at what she had done to him. When she finally looked at her watch, she was shocked to find she'd been up almost the entire night. Sighing, the teen climbed down and drove home, sneaking into her home like she'd done many a time before.

"Kagome, where have you been?" Her mother's voice asked. Kagome sighed and turned around, coming face to face with her mother.

"Out thinking about something mama," she sighed, hoping her mother would accept this answer.

"Really, are you sure you weren't out with that Hojo?" Her mother asked, ever suspicious of her teen daughter.

"I was not out with Hojo mama," Kagome replied. "Good night mama," Kagome said, walking upstairs to her room. She woke the next morning, alarm blaring in her ear, instantly awakening her. She dressed and left for school, meeting her friends outside the building.

"Hey Kagome," Hojo greeted her, giving her a kiss.

"Hello Hojo," Kagome answered.

"Awe, aren't you two so great together?" One of her friends said. The others agreed. They were about to say more things when loud yelling made them look at the student parking lot.

"INU YASHA!" His father roared at him, waking the teen. He sat up in his bed, taking a moment to actually wake up. His eyes were sore, and he had a minor headache, all due to Kagome who made him remember. He'd cried himself to sleep, though he'd never tell his friends, remembering his beloved mother.

"INU YASHA AKEMI, OPEN THIS DOOR IMMEDIATELY!" Screamed his father again. The man was surprised when his teen son did open his door.

"What do you want father?" Asked Inu Yasha.

"I want you out of my house. You do nothing to help around here, so I want you adn all your crap out of my house by this time tomorrow," his father told him. Inu Yasha stood shocked as his father left. 'What the hell?' He thought. Sighing, he packed all his stuff up, thankful he didn't have many things, and put it all in his car.

"Good bye and good riddance," he called out when he left. He drove to school, sitting in the parking lot, when it hit him. 'I have no home anymore. Where am I going to sleep? What am I gonna do about school? What about college? Maybe I should quit school, get a full time job. But that means I'm not going to have many job choices,' he thought. He looked at his watch and found it third period inside the school. He gave a sigh, and thought, 'Since I'm here, might as well go, it'll give me something to think about.' He got out and walked into the building, getting a late pass from the office. The bell for fourth period rang and he headed to the class.

"Class, I want you to work with your partner on your project," announced the teacher. 'Great,' Inu Yasha thought.

Kagome and her friends watched as two teens glared at each other, yelling stuff to the other.

"You whore!" One of them shouted.

"Well, at least I'm not hanging all over him like you do!" Yelled the other.

"You fucking bitch! I'll fucking kill you!" Screamed the first girl. Two guys ran up to her, to restrain her from harming the other girl. "Aren't those Inu Yasha's friends?" Kagome muttered to herself. "I wonder what they're fighting about," she said louder.

"Oh, didn't you hear? The girl in the white dress is Kikyo Hiro, and the other is Sango Tama, and Sango likes that freak dog boy Inu Yasha and Kikyo is his ex. Apparently, Kikyo is pregnant with his kid and well, you can see how Sango's reacting," Ayumi replied. Kagome just stared at her friend.

"How do you know all that?" She asked.

"I heard Kikyo tell to that total hottie Naraku, who's her current boyfriend," Ayumi shrugged. The bell rang for class, and everyone headed inside. Fourth period, Inu Yasha finally arrived at school, and had not heard what the entire school knew. When the teacher told them to work with their partners, both teens looked at each other, both wondering what would happen after the previous night.

"Hey, is it true, about Kikyo, I mean?" Kagome asked during the class period.

"Huh, what about her?" He asked.

"About you and her," Kagome went on.

"What the hell are you talking about?" He asked, curious, but annoyed.

"You mean you don't know?" She asked incuriously.

"Know what?" He asked, cocking his head.

"She says she's pregnant with your kid," Kagome told him. His face went pale, very pale, and he fainted. "Umm, Mr. Jones, my partner fainted, should I take him to the nurses office?" She asked. Everyone looked at her, and someone snickered.

"Yes," Mr. Jones sighed. "Please, take your Mr. Akemi down to the nurses office," he told the student. She nodded, and someone, a boy named Kouga, helped her out.

"Kouga, nice to see you again," the nurse nodded to the student. "How's Shippo?" She asked.

"Fine, although he's just getting over a cold," Kouga replied.

"Oh dear, what happened to him?" The nurse asked seeing Inu Yasha.

"He fainted," Kagome explained.

"Oh, Kagome, how nice tou see you as well," the nurse greeted her. "Thank you for bringing him down, why don't you two return to class," she told them. They nodded and headed back to class together.

"Who's Shippo?" Kagome asked.

"He's my little brother," Kouga replied. "He lives with our mom most of the time, but he's staying with my dad and me while she's out of town."

"My little brother's a pest, is yours?" She asked, curious.

"Yeah, he can be," chuckled the teen boy.

"Your friends with Inu Yasha, aren't you?" Kagome asked.

"Yeah," Kouga answered, chuckling stopped.

"What's his home life like?" She asked, curious.

"You know, I'm not sure. I know his mom's dead and that he doesn't get along with his father, but that's it," Kouga admitted. "Why do you ask?"

"Something he said," she answered. They reached the classroom, both lost in thought.

Lunchtime

"Hey, Miroku, you see Inu Yasha today?" Sango asked.

"No," Miroku answered, stopping his eating, then resuming.

"Hey you guys," Kouga greeted his two friends.

"Hey Kouga," Sango greeted him. She looked at Miroku in disgust as he wolfed down the food before him. "Kouga, have you seen Inu Yasha today?" She asked.

"Yeah, fourth period," he answered. "I had an interesting conversation with the princess today. Maybe she's not so bad," Kouga said to no one in particular. Miroku, who was taking a drink of some pop, spit all the pop out, right on Sango, who sat staring at Kouga, jaw dropping in shock. She didn't even notice she was covered in pop.

"Yeah, right," Miroku said sarcastically.

"I'm serious," Kouga insisted.

Inu Yasha sat in the nurses office, still in shock. Kagome walked into the room, bringing him lunch.

"Hey, you feeling better?" She asked. He didn't reply. "Well, I brought you lunch, I don't think you'd want to face going to the cafeteria at the moment, not with the way gossip spreads here," she said, sitting the tray next to him. "See you tomorrow," she said, walking towards the doorway.

"Th... thanks," his voice croaked out. She smiled. He looked at her smile and found his heart fluttering.

"Your welcome Inu," she said, walking out. her heart was racing in her chest.

A/N: Wow, I am liking this chapter a lot. Well, we finally know what Kikyo was going to tell Inu. We also know how Shippo and Kouga are related. I'm sure that most of you were thinking that Kouga was his father, and I was having a hard time deciding what their relationship should be.

Oh, and this chapter is dedicated to Merayna for that cool review you gave me for the first chapter. And I agree, the Inu Yasha section is going to the dogs (no pun intended). You guys really should check out her fic, A Class Apart, it's pretty good.

Oh, and Puppy Inu Yasha, it means Alternate Universe.

Anime is one tonight! I so love Saturday nights! Six hours of awesome shows, isn't that what life's all about?

Disclaimer: I do not own Inu Yasha the anime, I'm just using it's characters names in my own original story, thus making my story an AU.
