InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Impossible Mission ❯ First Day of School ( Chapter 3 )

First Day of School

At Shurikan High School…

Miroku and Inu-yasha walked with their school books ready to enter their first class with their mission awaiting them. “Just like old times right Inu-yasha?” Miroku laughed.  The teacher spotted the two at the door. “Well I've been expecting you two, come on in.”  The students looked at the two young men ahead of them.  “Class I would like you to meet your new classmates; Miroku Kurama and Inu-yasha Hitome.” The teacher announced.  Some of the girls giggled and whispered at their names and looks.  “Please find a seat.”

“Thanks.” Inu-yasha said. Inu-yasha sneakily fished out the picture of Kagome and spotted the girl resembling the photo. “She is kind of cute um…” He thought then coughed and sat at the desk beside her as Miroku sat behind Sango not knowing that it was.  Inu-yasha witnessed the young female beside him as she was looking forward.  Sensing eyes on her she turned her head toward him and gave a weak smile.  Inu-yasha realised and quickly turned his head away, slightly red. “What the hell was I doing just now?” He thought. “For some reason she looks so familiar, but I`ve never seen her before, who is she?”  Miroku on the other hand didn't even care if the girl sitting next to him saw him and sighed. “High school girls.”

After the long period the class ended, and all the students rushed out of class.  “Oh, Inu-yasha, Miroku, here are your schedules for your next classes.” The science teacher added.  “Thanks.” Miroku bowed, he handed Inu-yasha his and scanned through it. “Math's next.”  “Yeah I see that, but where is room A236?” Inu-yasha wondered. “We should be in the same class as Kagome, but I don't see her anywhere.”

Fifteen minutes of recess ended and the two boys were still having trouble.

Inu-yasha growled. “This would be much easier if the rooms weren't going up and down different hallways.” “You two having trouble?” A soft voice asked.  They turned around to see Kagome. “Um…yeah.” Inu-yasha nodded.  “Let me see your schedules.” She said.  They both gave it to her and waited until she finished scanning them.  “Your schedules' the same as mine and Sango's.” She noted to her friend beside her. “Math is on the second floor, follow me then. Oh by the way my name`s Kagome, it`s nice meeting you all.” She smiled sweetly.  Miroku elbowed Inu-yasha's arm and moved his eyebrows up and down repeatedly.  “Shut up.” He whispered.

“This is the room.” Kagome noted.  “Thanks.” Inu-yasha coughed.  Kagome nodded and sat at her assigned seat.  The math teacher set Inu-yasha and Miroku as well. “You'll be sitting alphabetical order.”  Inu-yasha with the last name beginning with “Hi” had happened to sit behind Kagome this time.  Miroku had to sit next to Sango and he gazed at her. “So this is Sango, she's absolutely gorgeous, both of them are but I have a feeling that...oh nevermind.” He thought.

Inu-yasha was actually paying attention remembering all of this stuff back at his older high school at the Shikon Secret Training Hall.  Kagome sighed hiding her head behind the text book completely ignoring the lesson.  “Miss Higurashi!” The teacher called.  She shot up. “Yes?”  “Answer the following problem please.” The teacher said.  “Okay.” She looked at the problem and scratched her head. “I uh… don't get it.” She replied.  “You better start paying attention the Christmas exams are coming up.” The teacher scolded.  “Hai(yes).” She said in discontent with a tint of red on her cheeks.  Inu-yasha couldn't help but smile. “It's clear to me she hates math.”

Yet again class ended with another recess and they finished with English, and then finally it was lunch.

Inu-yasha and Miroku sat a lunch table behind them but was sat facing them so they were able to focus on the people around her.  The two girls sat at the lunch table with a couple more girls and a guy.  “Inu-yasha, I've noticed you paying attention to Kagome a little too closely, you think she's cute.” Miroku sneered.  “Well she's not ugly, it doesn't mean I'm interested in a having a relationship with, hell, I don't even know her.” He snorted.  “Technically you do, you have all the information on her.” 

Inu-yasha frowned because he was right. “Well whatever you say, I guess it doesn't matter if I go and ask them eh?”  Miroku grinned.  “Don't even think about Miroku.”  Miroku was already up and walking over to them.  “You pervert, you don't even know them.” Inu-yasha shouted.  Miroku stopped and turned his head. “Aw, my dear friend that's the best time.” And he continued.  Inu-yasha bit into his sandwich. “Shmiko.” (Sicko)

A few seconds later Miroku came back with bumps, lumps and a black eye.  “Well at least you came back alive.” Inu-yasha snickered.  Inu-yasha ignored his mumbles as he caught Kagome hugging the young male beside her. “Look Miroku, even if you wanted to try her out, it seems Kagome already has a boyfriend.” Inu-yasha pointed out.  “Really?” He sat right beside him and looked over at them. “And you don't feel anything?” Miroku wondered.  “Any what?”  “You know jealousy?” Miroku smirked.  “As if, why would I be jealous, I just think she looks familiar to someone I once knew and that's all.” He stated.  “Hm…she doesn't look like any woman I've seen before, and believe me I would know.”

Later, almost everyone was outside chatting or playing soccer.

Inu-yasha sat up in the small sturdy tree while Miroku only leaned against it.  Kagome and her friends sat over by the school gate in the shade talking.  “Hey, you see that girl by Kagome, Sango isn't it? She looks like the toughie in Kagome's group.” Miroku pin pointed.  “Yeah, she's the one who gave you the black eye. I'll give her props for doing such a great job.” Inu-yasha snickered.  “Don't get me started.” Miroku puffed, putting his hand on his left eye. “By the way how's your arm doing?” “Feh, this small cut doesn't even itch; it'll heal in another day or two.” He snorted.  “That's true you wouldn't worry; to you it must be a measly paper cut, because of your half demon self.”

Inu-yasha jumped off the tree and grabbed Miroku's collar. “I told you not to talk about it around in public!” He scowled. “You're the only one in the whole world who knows my secret, you better not blow it!”  “Okay, okay.” He repeated removing Inu-yasha's grip.  “Miroku's not the only one who knows my secret.” He thought.

The first bell rung for notice that the next class would start soon.  “Here we go with the stupid classes.” Miroku groaned.

Kagome and Sango's locker…

“Sango, you know those two new students, Inu-yasha and Miroku, right? I just find it odd, they sit around us in every class.” Kagome distinguished.  “I've noticed that too, well at least you have a pretty hot guy next to you while I always end up next to that pervert.” She agreed clenching her fists.  “Yeah, he is pretty good looking, but he's not my type.” Kagome said, closing her locker. She then noticed the two teenaged boys searching for their next class.  Kagome couldn't help but giggle, she had found it funny that a couple of sturdy men were stressing over on a little think like finding a classroom.

Sango noticed Kagome giggling at Inu-yasha. “Kagome-chan?”  Kagome shook her head out of her fits of giggles. “Sorry, let's help them out.” “I don't want to help that pervert.” Sango retorted. “Come on, he was most likely joking.” “Not me.” Sango pouted.  Kagome shook her head again and went over to them.  “Inu-yasha?” Kagome called.

He frowned. “What?!” He turned facing Kagome, his expression softened. He was only angry because he was having trouble finding the class.  “Geez, forgive me for trying to help you, find class on your own.” Kagome said angrily, walking away with Sango. “Gosh what a jerk.” “They're both retards.” Sango snorted, giving them a cold stare.  “Shit nice going.” Inu-yasha's conscious said.  “Let's follow them.” Miroku suggested.

They got to class just on time; Inu-yasha felt all eyes on him, and two giving him a death glare. Yet again he ended up next to Kagome.  Kagome sighed. “Okay what do you want from me?” She whispered.  Inu-yasha faced her. “Huh, what do you mean?”  “Explain why you sit next or behind me in every class we have?” She glared.  “Well if you hadn't noticed there aren't other seats free and some of the teachers set their classes' alphabetical order.” He answered.  “Don't give me that, you could have taken a switch with your friend over there.” Kagome noted, getting louder.  “Hey, it's not like I want to sit close to you, does it look like I've got a choice?” As he got just as loud.

The teacher cleared his throat. “Excuse me.”

They ignored him or just too caught up in their little argument.  Kagome got only angrier. “As I said switch places with someone!”  “Why are you being so stuck up about this?” Inu-yasha remarked. She gasped and got up.  “Kagome-chan…” Sango whispered.  “I'm stuck up, why are you being such a jerk?!” Kagome yelled.  “Suddenly why am I a jerk?” Inu-yasha growled also standing up.  “Uh-oh, hey Inu-yasha, calm down.” Miroku whispered.  But he ignored him too.

The class stared at the two squabbling teenagers in surprise.  “Kagome-chan…” Sango called again.  “Inu-yasha…” Miroku also called again.  Both the arguers turned to them. “What!?”  Kagome came back to her senses when she remembered she was in class and went red.  “Miss Higurashi, Mr. Hitome; you two want to argue it won't be taken in my class, please stand in the hall.” The teacher ordered.  “Fine.” Kagome answered the teacher, but was looking at Inu-yasha, she dropped her pencil on the desk and walked to the door, with Inu-yasha miles behind her.

Kagome laid on the wall beside a window with a view of the soccer and volleyball fields as Inu-yasha stood on the opposite side right of the classroom door, but they didn't dare to even glance at each other.  “How am I supposed to protect someone like her, she's so hot headed.” Inu-yasha thought angrily.  “How could I have been so stupid, well as I said he's not my type and I just proved my point?” Kagome thought angrily as well.

Inu-yasha heard footsteps coming this way, he looked down the hall to see another teenaged boy about 5'10 who looked to be 17. His black hair was tied up in a long ponytail. He was a bit muscular but no more than himself.  Kagome sighed thus mumbling out, “Oh great, just what I need now.”  Inu-yasha hearing her, turned his face to her, but she was looking out the window of the third floor making it look like she was trying to hide from him.  The young man passed by her, but just noticed the silky, black hair he never misses. “Well, well, if it isn't Higurashi Kagome, got kicked out did ya?”

Kagome let out an exaggerated sigh. “What do want now Kouga?” He reached out to her shoulder turning her around so she was face to face with him.  “Don't touch me; I'm not in a good mood.” She said, slapping his hand off her shoulder.  “My, my, aren't we touchy today.” He snickered. “I start liking you more and more by the day.” Pulling her into a hug.  “Oh gee I'm thrilled, really.” Kagome said sarcastically pushing away.

Inu-yasha witnessed as the teenager placed his hands on each side of Kagome's shoulders, backing her up against the wall.  “If you're thrilled, show me just how much you are.” Kouga grinned.  “Kouga, get your hands off me!” She demanded struggling from out his grip.  “Yeah, yeah after I leave you a gift for you to remember me by.” He smirked.  Kagome wasn't the least bit thrilled and tried push him off, but he moved his grip lower between her upper and lower arms so she couldn't move. “Let go of me, I said, I'm not interested in you, now go away!” “I'll do just that after I give you this.” He said, lowering his head toward hers.  “No!” She squinted her eyes shut and put her head face down so he couldn't reach hers.  “Why are you resisting me, there's no need to be coy?” He asked, he lifted up her chin but her eyes remained shut. He didn't care and proceeded lowering his lips to hers.

“Hey.” A voice casually spoke.  Kagome opened her eyes and Kouga turned to Inu-yasha. He was leaning his back against the wall with his foot up on it as well, his hands were in his pockets and his eyes were closed. “If the girl doesn't want and you're doing it anyway, wouldn't that be considered as molestation? If so, why choose do it in broad daylight when someone else is watching?” Inu-yasha requested.  Kouga released Kagome and fully faced him. “And who the heck are you; I've never seen you here before?”  “Feh, it's not your information to know who I am. I don't have to explain myself to the likes of you.” Inu-yasha snorted.  “Wait, aha I remember now you're the new student everyone's been talking about, you're that Inu-yasha.”

“Well at least you do have brains.”  Kouga frowned. “Listen, no one talks to me like that around here, so if you don't want to get hurt, stay out of my business.”  Inu-yasha suddenly opened his eyes and faced him. “Whoa, wait you didn't just threaten me now?”  “Let me think that over, yeah I just did.” Kouga sarcastically snorted.  Inu-yasha pushed himself off the wall and went over to him. “If you think I'll be at the least threatened by someone like you, you obviously don't know me too well.”  Kouga went up to his face. “Well I suppose I don't do I?” He smirked slightly. “This might just be getting interesting.” He then faced Kagome again. “Later Kagome.” He said giving a bold smile, he looked back at Inu-yasha and gave him another snort and continued his way down the hall.

Silence soon kicked in.

“If you're waiting for a thank you, you're wasting your time.” Kagome grunted, holding her arms.  “Keh, who said I was? I just couldn't stand here any longer and watch that.”  “You didn't have to help me, you only got yourself into trouble; I could have taken care of it myself.” Kagome stated.  “Not from where I was standing he had you cornered.”  “I'm always able to get out of it.” She said softly.  “What does she mean by always? Does this mean it happens often?” Inu-yasha pondered.  “If you're wondering what I mean, yes this sort of thing happens to me every day, and somehow I always get out of it.” Kagome explained.

Inu-yasha raised an eyebrow. “This thing with what's his face, Kouga, does this to you every day, and you don't tell anyone about it?” “What do you think I am I can take care of this on my own it's no one's business?” Kagome retorted.  Inu-yasha scratched his head in confusion. “This happens every day and I didn't know anything about it. I thought Motojime said there was everything in that large ass folder.”

The final bell then rang.

“Forget what happened just now!” She yelled, and then ran away from him, holding her left arm.  Inu-yasha noticed it and also realised she had a bruise on her right leg. “That better not be from that jerk, who was that guy anyway, wait is he the one?” He thought suddenly then calmed down. “No, the man wouldn't show up in broad daylight to do such things to Kagome, but still I better investigate on him.”  “Hey Inu-yasha.” Miroku called, snapping him out of his thoughts.  Sango passed them holding on to Kagome's book and went down the hallway after her.

After they lost Kagome and Sango they finally spotted them at the school gates leaving.  Sango patted her friend's back, giving her a tissue. “Kagome, that Kouga did this to you again, didn't he?”  Kagome nodded. “He's such a jerk.”  Sango frowned. “Next time I see him I'll kick him where the sun don't shine.”  “No, Sango its okay really, I'll deal with this situation once and for all.” Kagome declared.  Sango nodded. “I'll be right there with you.”  “Thanks.” She smiled kindly.

They reached a fork in the road.

“Take care Kagome-chan, ja ne.” Sango waved walking down the right path.  “See you tomorrow.” Kagome waved back going down the left. She sighed.  Inu-yasha and Miroku were behind enough so she or Sango couldn't tell. “Inu-yasha did anything happen with you and Kagome during class in the halls?” Miroku asked.  “Huh? No.” But he did know what happened he just didn't feel like discussing with him at that instant he's tell him later.  Kagome stopped dead in her tracks when she heard footsteps over her own behind her, two people by her description. “Who's there?” She turned around quickly, but no one was there. She got a little scared by the empty spots, but continued just a bit faster than before.

“I think she knows we're following her.” Miroku whispered.  “You think?” Inu-yasha said rolling his eyes.  Kagome heard them again, but knew it was no point of turning around her stockers would just disappear, instead she began to run. “Whoever you are, leave me alone!”  Her followers were still behind her.  Kagome kicked off her shoe and caught in her hands; still running, she threw it back.  “Ow!”

Kagome recognised the voice and turned around again. “Inu-yasha, Miroku?”  “Yeah, I'm just walking and you decide to throw a shoe at me.” Inu-yasha said, giving her shoe back.  Kagome sighed in relief that it wasn't her other stocker. “Well, why were two following me like that?” Kagome asked, slipping on her show.  “We weren't following you.” Inu-yasha lied.  “We weren't?” Miroku repeated looking at Inu-yasha confused.  Inu-yasha elbowed him in the stomach. “We were going home just like you are.”  “You live this way?” Kagome asked raising an eyebrow.  “Um…yeah.” Miroku nodded.  Kagome sighed. “Do you just want to walk with me home then?” “Don't mind if I do.” Miroku grinned.  “Just for security reasons, I'll stay by Inu-yasha.” Kagome smiled awkwardly, switching over to Inu-yasha.  Miroku sighed.

“What's up with your arm?” Inu-yasha asked.  “My arm? Its fine, don't worry about it.” She replied confused. She knew that he knew what happened to her.  And Inu-yasha knew too, but pretended to be unaware. “Your arm doesn't look alright, it's swollen.” He noted grabbing her arm and inspecting it.  Kagome tried to pull her arm away. “I'm fine I said.”  “I think not!” Inu-yasha frowned, pulling it back.  “Who cares what you think.” Kagome had got a good tug and was glad when she felt stronger, but Inu-yasha gave a good pull back and his strength over powered hers and accidentally pulled her into his chest.

They both began to blush.  Kagome pushed away from his chest and looked up at him, as Inu-yasha looked down at her.  Miroku poked his head between them. “Awkward…”  Kagome suddenly snapped to. She pushed herself completely away from his grip and walked away rapidly and disappeared down the path, leaving Inu-yasha standing still.  “Well, well, Inu-yasha I didn't know you had it in you, you sly dog.” Miroku grinned, patting his back.  “Wha... you have got to be kidding me, you think I have feelings for her don't you?”  “Yup.” He nodded boldly.  Inu-yasha faced him and pointed at Miroku's head. “Have you seen a shrink recently because, you must be out of your mind. Why would I have a “thing” for Kagome, my job is to protect her not fall in love with her. That would be the biggest mistake of my career. Besides I already told, I won't fall in love with any women.”

Miroku pushed away his pointed finger. “That's what all men say at first, except me of course, you'll have to have some kind of romance in your life; it's impossible for a man even you to never fall in love.”  “That's what you say.” Inu-yasha snorted.  “Then explain to me why you pulled Kagome into your warm welcoming arms?” Miroku asked, hugging himself.  Inu-yasha's eyes widened and began to blush again. “You got it all wrong, I didn't pull Kagome in my arms on purpose you know, I just tugged her arm a little too strong, that's all!” He corrected.  “Uh, huh, and that's why it took you 10 full seconds to realise you were hugging her.” He nodded disagreeing with him.  “Yeah.” He responded.

“What if I were to say that Kagome might like you?”  Inu-yasha turned slightly red and coughed. “Uh, well then…that would be impossible because you witnessed the fight we had this afternoon, aren't couples suppose to get along?” He replied.  "Most of them tend to argue to hide their true feelings for each other, the best couples are the ones who don't get along well, it's called opposites attract buddy.” Miroku stated.  “Keh, whoever made that shit up, must've been drunk.”  “Drunk, but at the same time realised reality.” Miroku pointed out.  This got Inu-yasha ticked off. “You have an excuse for everything. I won't fall in love for the last time, now get lost Miroku!” He shouted, walking away from him.

Miroku stood watching him leave then shook his head. “You tell me to get lost and you're the one who's leaving." Then he grinned. "I'll be the first to laugh when you're infatuated with someone and that someone will be right under your nose.” He thought and left. 

Inu-yasha still frowned walking close to his own home. “Stupid Miroku, he wouldn't understand. How could I fall in love with “another” woman when that woman …” He growled.
