[ P - Pre-Teen ]

“Damn, im gonna be late, and on my first day too! Shit!” kagome cursed as she ran around trying to get dressed and brush her hair at the same time. “crap!” she finaly dropped the brush and yanked her green skirt up and buttoned it, then hastily pulled a short white shirt with a green picture of Bhudda on the front of it. “kagome! Hurry up!” yelled her brother at her doorway. “I know dammit, I'm goin as fast as I can!” she yelled “ooohhh, im telling mom!!” “go ahead ya little brat, im 18, I can cuss all I want!” she grabbed the handle of her backpack, shoved past her brother and took the stairs two at a time. When she reached the bottom, her mom said, “oh, kagome, I packed you a lunch and made some breakfast for you, please come and eat.” “can't mom, gotta go, first day, late, love ya!” she grabbed her lunch and ran out the door, across the lawn, and started her way down the stairs in front of the shrine. She had only been in this town for a couple of months, but knew her way around fairly well. Her family decided to move here after she received her invitation to this weird school for her “unique abilities.” She didn't think much about her power as a priestess till she read that letter. It told her that the school was a place where humans and demons are taught how to control and strengthen their powers. “demons? Powers?” school?” I didn't know demons went to school..” she had decided to forget about the letter and stay at her old high school, but right before her senior year, their shrine burned down in a terrible fire and her family was forced to move. Her mom suggested that they move here so she could go to this school and she agreed, and here they were. `it's just one year, what's the worst that could happen?', she thought as she turned a corner and ran smack into a boy wearing jeans and a blue shirt. “ouch”, she said as she landed on her butt on the sidewalk. “oh crap, are you ok?” said a girl who was wearing capris and a pink tank with her hair pulled up. “yeah, I'm fine.”, kagome answered, getting to her feet and dusting herself off, “I probably should have been watching where I was going.” She looked over at the boy laying on his back on the pavement. “no, no, I'm alright sango, thanks for asking.”, he said sarcastically, standing up and straightening his clothes. “I'm really sorry.”, said kagome to the ruffled looking boy. He smiled at her and said, “don't be, it's quite all right, nobody was hurt and besides, it was an accident.”, he closed the distance between them, “plus, I could never blame such a pretty girl. My name is Miroku, by the way, Miroku Tekeda, and who might you be?” “I'm kagome higurashi.”she answered, blushing. “well, very nice to meet you.”,he said, grabbing her hand and kissing it. “oh, here we go”, said the girl named sango, rolling her eyes. “and this lovely young lady here is named sango kiromi” , he said, pointing to her. “nice to meet you kagome, and don't be fooled, he's not always this charming.” She said, giving him a glare. “now sango, whatever would make you say a thing like that?” “oh, I don't know, maybe because you cant keep your hands to yourself, you pervert!” she said, slapping him on the face. Kagome noticed his left hand had been getting dangerously close to her butt. She edged away from him quickly and took a glimpse at her watch, “oh jeeze, listen, it was really nice meeting you but I gotta go before I'm late for school.” “oh, what school do you go to?” asked sango. “you've probably never heard of it before,” she said, “it's called shikon no tama high.” “no way!” sango said excitedly, “did you hear that, miroku? She goes to shikon.” “well, what a surprise, so do we. You can come with us and we'll give you the grand tour.” He said. “really? That'd be great!”, kagome said happily. `wow, school hasn't even started yet, and I've already got 2 friends!' “well then, shall we ladies?”, said miroku, gesturing for them to grab his arms like an escort, but they were already far up the road, talking and laughing. “try to keep up, would ya?” sango yelled over her shoulder to him. He sighed and said, “wait up!”
