Chapter 4: Inuyasha’s true race: The secret behind the white hair and yellow eyes.


Kagome snuck into study hall late, barely making it past the teacher’s swift eyes. She dashed pass her classmates, who’s heads were buried in their books. Inuyasha waited for her in the back of the library by the restricted section books that were mostly used by the faculty. She forgot their meeting arrangement and ran past him, looking for her friends.

Inuyasha grabbed her skirt and pulled her backwards, Kagome flew back and fell onto his lap. She blushed as she felt his warm breath caressing her skin, and his hand on her waist. She sat up hastily and he chuckled as she sat down, burying her head in her Science book. “Pink and frilly underwear, that’s really cute!” he whispered, his haughty laugh rising into a high pitched chuckle. Kagome became flustered and whacked him on the head with her book. He wailed in pain and the entire class turned towards them, noticing his distinct yelping. With a loud shush, the librarian quieted the crowd with a sharp hush, returning them to their study modes.

Kagome and Inuyasha began their studies after the argument ended and warped their focus to their books. Kagome’s focus was turned to her science book and Inuyasha’s were focused on her breasts. She stared at him from her studies and searched for his eyes, only to realize that they were focused on her chest. Inuyasha yelped in pain as Kagome thrust her foot into his leg. “Pervert!” she cried, turning her focus back to her studies.

“Why are you still sitting here with me then?” he smirked. Kagome looked around to find an answer. “Uh, because there are no other tables to sit at!” she whispered. “There’s a seat right there, why don’t you go sit in it!” he smiled. Hurt by his comment, Kagome stood up from her seat and walked towards him, smacking him in the head with her book. Inuyasha managed to duck down in his seat, but his hair was brushed to the side, revealing what seemed to be a white dog ear. Kagome’s gasp was muffled by Inuyasha’s hands covering her mouth. He dragged her to the back of the library shelves, trying to explain himself.

“Look, let me explain!” he started. But Kagome was too swift for him and tackled him, knocking him onto the floor. Her legs pinned his arms to the floor and her feet were wrapped around his legs. Inuyasha could easily slide to the side and reverse the situation, but being the pervert that he is, he acted helpless.
“Now I got you, what the hell are these?” she brushed away the other layer of hair covering his dog ear and touched it. The ear twitched and she giggled, “That is so cute!”
She got off of him and he frowned, his fun ruined.
The pair sat at the back of the shelves asking each other questions; Inuyasha spoke first.

“So when did you learn about your miko powers?” he asked.
“When I was 12, an old man was trying to talk to me and I sent him flying into a wall, did you hear it on the news reports? I ran away before anyone found him,” Kagome said. Inuyasha shuddered and didn’t respond. “Uh, no, I was out of the country,” he lied.
“Really? Where did you travel?” she asked. Inuyasha switched the subject, “So what did you want to ask me?” he said. Kagome stared at him like he was stupid.
“You have dog ears! Where did they come from? Was your father part dog or something?” she asked. His ears twitched again and she smiled.
“ Yeah, but he was a dog demon, which I am half of, and my mother was a human,” he said nervously. Inuyasha impatiently waited for her to respond. She stared at his eyes again and he paused, nervously tapping his finely cut fingers on his knee.
“Half dog demon huh?” Kagome said. Inuyasha became annoyed and realized that this conversation was going nowhere. He began to speak, but the bell rang; signaling them that it was time for lunch. They both stood up, grabbed their books and walked with the class to their next period.

Lunch was extremely stressful for Kagome, bundles of eyes and tainted whispers interrupted their conversation. She sat at the lunch table with Inuyasha, he was eating instant ramen, and she brought a packed lunch. Offering some of it to him, he used his chop stick and took an egg roll. Behind the pair was a group of girls talking behind them.
“Look at that girl, she’s all over him!” a girl with curly black hair spoke.
“If I wanted to, I would steal him away,” said another.
“Yeah, that bitch, how dare she try and take our man, only we get the new guys,”
“We’ll get her in the afternoon,” the group of girls said together. They were all a huge group of similar girls with black, curly or straight hair, but most of them had curly hair. The lunch room remained silent until the science teacher walked in with a brief announcement. “Students! There is an extra credit project if you’re interested, but you have to stay after school with a partner to complete it.” she said.

Being the pervert that Inuyasha is he raised his hand to take the project. “Teacher, I would like to take the project, my partner is Kagome!” he shouted. The teacher took out a note pad and wrote down their names, Inuyasha walked up to her. “So, what is this project about?” he asked. She stared at him with mischievous eyes and took off her glasses.
“The moon,” she said flatly.
“What?” Inuyasha said.
“The moon, you are doing an observation of the moon, and luckily for you, it is a new moon out tonight so you won’t be able to see it!” she giggled. The science teacher always gave the students easy projects, but this project would be very complicated for Inuyasha. “Well, I’ll see you after school,” she smiled, winked and walked off. Inuyasha walked back to his seat in the lunch room, only to face a very pissed off Kagome.
“Why did you do that!?” she growled, and Inuyasha jumped back in fear.
“Jeez! You don’t have to bite my head off, I just wanted to get some time to know you,” he said, his voice lowering with every word. Kagome was touched.
“Really?” she said, her hands cupped under her chin, and her eyes gleaming.
“Yeah,” He said awkwardly. Something bad was going to happen tonight, Kagome could feel it in her gut, and Inuyasha could feel it in his conscience. It was a feeling that maybe the project was just for an easy grade? Or maybe it was just another turn of fate to put them in danger, or unveil a dangerous secret? They both didn’t know, but whatever awaited them in the afternoon could put them both in a dangerous situation.
