InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Impossible Mission ❯ Confusions ( Chapter 4 )

Confusions

Inu-yasha unlocked the front door of his house and hung his cap on the rack revealing his dog-like ears. “What a day.” He turned on the kitchen stove and walked in the living room and slumped down on his couch. A sound of something running down the stairs caught Inu-yasha's attention. He looked over the couch.  His dog barked at the sight of him.  “Hey Komaru, how've you been?” Inu-yasha smiled, roughly scratching behind his ears.

Komaru is mixed between a Beagle and Border collie, his features were closer to a beagle but his mind was set like a terrier. He is mostly brown with a big black spot on his back and white at the tip of his tail and under his belly. His height was about knee length.  Komaru gave high yips with the wag of his tail and ran toward the kitchen then stopped at the intersection of the kitchen and the living room looking back at Inu-yasha.  “Yeah, yeah, I'm coming.” Inu-yasha nodded. He got up and followed the hungry dog to his bowl.

Inu-yasha who had always wondered what dog food actually tasted like tried it himself and found it horrible, instead he now feeds him real food, but to the extent. This time Inu-yasha had already prepared chicken bits and rice. “I've also wondered why dogs eat the same food 24/7; here you go.” He said taking out the container from the microwave, therefore, scooping it into his black food bowl.

As usual Komaru ate all the chicken in a jiff leaving the rice alone. "Why do you always do that, you eat all the meat and leave the rest like leftovers; if I were you I would eat the rice first and leave the meat for last since it's the best part,” as he boiled water for his ramen noodles.

The phone suddenly rang; he reached for it and answered. “Moshi, moshi?” “Hey Inu-yasha, you know that girl Sango, Kagome's friend?” Miroku started.  “Uh yeah, what about her?” “She lives next door.” Miroku smiled. “You just realised this now, and how long have you lived in that house?” Inu-yasha asked sarcastically. “I never noticed because of the earlier missions, I'm always out, this might be my lucky shot.” Miroku gleamed with excitement. “Hey! Don't do anything stupid to her, Miroku.” Inu-yasha warned, pouring the hot water into the bowl, and began to stir the base.

“Come now, Inu-yasha, why would I possibly do something like…” Miroku grew silent at that moment. “Miroku, what's wrong?” He asked.  “Oh my this is too sweet.” He spoke. “What is it?”  “You wouldn't want to believe this but her room's right across from mine, and she's getting ready for bed.” Miroku replied.

“'Eh, Mirumku, dun dyou dare peak at herm.” Inu-yasha scolded with a mouth stuffed with noodles. (Hey, Miroku, don't you dare peak at her.)  “Ah nuts, she closed the blinds.” Miroku sighed snapping his fingers in disappointment. “She's smart; she mows lirttle smerverts like chyou mould spy on herm.” Inu-yasha snickered. (She's smart; she knows little perverts like you would spy on her.) “Yeah; what are you eating, no wait let me guess, ramen.” “Yup.” He grinned.

“Mou, you know your brain will turn into noodles if you continue eating like this, the boss hates it when you repeatedly eat these kind of things.” Miroku sighed disapprovingly. “Keh save it.” “Well gotta go, see ya later.” Miroku said.  “Kay.” He nodded, slurping another great amount of noodles.  Then the line cut off. Inu-yasha hung up the phone and walked back to the living room with his bowl relaxed in front of the screen watching “Bleach.” (anime watching anime lol) with Komaru lying beside him.

(A/N: When a main character in a scene is talking to someone on the phone the other persons voice is in Italics.  Since it was Inu-yasha POV, Miroku is talking with Italics if it was the other way around Inu-yasha would be using Italics)

Higurashi Shrine…

“Kagome, dinner's ready, come down!” Ms. Higurashi called from the bottom of the stairs.  “Um, okay be down in a minute!” Kagome replied, quickly scribbling in her math book. “This would be much easier if I had help,” as she bit her pencil. Kagome sighed and closed her text book and jumped off her bed. “Come Buyo.”  The cat had just finished falling off her bed and followed her out the door.

“So how was your day?” Ms. Higurashi asked.  “It was okay I guess nothing new.” She answered but something passed through her mind. “Oh yeah, they're two new students in our school, and they're both in each of my classes.” Kagome noted.  “Oh really, what are their names?” Her mother asked.  “Inu-yasha and Miroku.” She replied.  “They're both boys?” Her mom gasped.  “Are you friends with them now?” Souta asked.  "Um…no, not really.” Kagome responded unsure.  “What do you mean, you either are or you're not.” Souta wondered raising an eyebrow. “Alright…” She started, putting rice in her mouth then swallowing it. “I'm not.” “Oh?” Her family spoke together.

Everything went quiet after that.  “Alright, I got it now.” Grampa announced.  “Got what?” Souta asked.  Grampa leaned over to his grandson. “There's only one thing, she's in love with one of them; and he doesn't share the same way.” “Oh.” Grampa suddenly pulled out an object. “I've got just the thing; Kagome-”  “No thank you.” Kagome frowned, walking out of the dining room with her empty plate. “Excuse me.” “Whoa, she's got it bad.” Her mom giggled softly.  The other two nodded.

Kagome turned on the bathtub filling it up along with the green liquid soap. She got undressed and slowly dipped in. “This feels great.” She sighed, comfortably closing her eyes.  Kagome re-opened them and let her thoughts flow through her. “Who exactly are they? Miroku and Inu-yasha should Sango and I trust them?”

Next morning…

The school bell rang and the students started getting ready for class.  Kagome ran as quickly as she could just passing the school gates; finally entering the school grounds. “I'm so late, even Sango's in already.” “Hey! Kagome,” Someone called.  Kagome rolled her eyes recognizing the voice not far behind her and kept running completely ignoring him.

“Kagome!” He called again.  Kagome continued on when she finally reached the entrance. She had stopped to open the door.  The teenager grabbed her shoulder and spoke, “Hey! Can't you hear when someone's calling you?”  “Leave me be, Kouga, I have no time for you, I'm late.” Kagome said, swinging the door in his face and continued down the hall.  Kouga examined his face with his hands for any sign of injuries. “Ouch, why so harsh, Kagome?” Kouga sighed with relief that his face was okay. “Why do you always reject me?”

In math class…

Kagome barged in class taking deep breaths. “Made…it!” “Yes you just did, find your seat please.” The teacher said.  Kagome sat down and sighed. “Almost got a detention.”  “Kagome-chan, what happened?” Sango whispered.  “Slept in late.” She replied.  Inu-yasha was gaping at her again unnoticeably, now just catching a glimpse of Miroku winking at him. Inu-yasha frowned and turned away. “Stupid Miroku, he's still with the whole “I like Kagome crap.”” “Inu-yasha.” The teacher called.

One of the male students snickered to his friend quietly. “Do you believe his name's actually Inu-yasha, that's hilarious?” Inu-yasha frowned again showing the boy his fist.  “Oh my God, he heard from that distance?”  Inu-yasha ignored him and answered. “Yes?” “Can you come up and complete the next problem?” “Oh! Sure.” He shuddered, walking to the board.  Inu-yasha drew a right triangle and placed the correct measurements. “I have to find the Hypotenuse of this right triangle; this should be easy.” He thought. Inu-yasha dusted off the powder of the chalk. “Done.” And he walked back to his seat.

The teacher inspected his work also looking at the right answer in his answer sheet. “Well done, Inu-yasha.” “Come on teach, that one was too easy.” Inu-yasha noted. “Being in the secret agency is practically all math, a simple math problem would be a snap.” Kagome looked over at him in shock. “That wasn't easy, I couldn't figure that out.” She thought.  “Miss Higurashi you're next.” The teacher announced. “Shoot, okay, okay, I won't be intimidated.” Kagome whispered, getting up. “Math's not usually my subject.” Inu-yasha mentioned. “Eh, hmm…” She stumbled, but continued. “Can he read my mind?” she pondered. “I've said that so softly.” She shook it off and answered the problem.

The inspected her work. “Not bad but you forgot to square root it.” “Oh!” She snapped feeling a blush of embarrassment. “I could be very foolish sometimes.” She stated to herself even lower.  “Keh, that's the whole point of math class, you're allowed to make mistakes.” Inu-yasha spoke quietly. “How…oh shut up, nerd.” She said. “He's toying with me.”

The school bell rang as everyone escaped from that horribly boring class. Kagome had found Sango in the crowd, and pulled her out losing sight of Inu-yasha. “Sango, I need to talk to you.”  “Why what's wrong?” she wondered.  She lured her to the girl's washroom and checked if anyone else was in there then she turned to her friend.  “It's about Inu-yasha, he's no ordinary transfer student; he's able to read my mind, well actually I was talking very quietly to myself.” Kagome stated.  “Kagome you're always talking to yourself, I mean he was right beside you of course he would hear.” Sango replied shaking her head.  “Okay fine maybe that's true, but yesterday after school him and Miroku were practically following me home.” Kagome added. “What do you mean?” Sango asked getting into it.

“Yesterday after you left me to go home, I felt that I was being followed and I was right Miroku and Inu-yasha were.” Kagome said. “That seems strange, but are you sure they didn't just live that way, I mean there were only two paths.”  “Okay well, I guess you have a point, he did mention he lived that way.” Kagome noted.  “So you see you're worrying over nothing, it's not like they're perverted stockers.” Sango mentioned.  “Yeah, I guess I am taking this the wrong way.” Kagome nodded.

The first bell rang stirring the girls.  “Let's go, before we be late for next class.” Sango suggested.  “Yeah.” The two friends left the washroom that moment.  Suddenly a young women appearing to be a year older than Kagome and Sango came out from the bathroom stall. With her long black hair tied up with two loops at the side of each ear. “So, Inu-yasha, you're back in town.” She smiled.
