InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ What You See ❯ Scary Houses and Creepy Houses ( Chapter 3 )
[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
Kagome turned to find a woman about her age, maybe a little older, sitting in the passenger seat of her car. The woman was creepy looking, even for a ghost. Her dark hair and eyes contrasted with pale skin that looked more likely to burn when exposed to the sun. She was very pretty pretty, but something about her gave Kagome bad vibes."Can I help you?"
The Woman (what a wonderful, unique label) opened her mouth to say something, but Kagome's boss, Mitsuki (only name I could think of), had seen her pull in and was shouting to make sure she was alright and not injecting herself with heroin or something. (do you even inject heroin? O.0) Kagome yelled back that she was just looking for her cell phone and turned to find The Woman Not There. (Which is Not Here. Not There and Not Here are almost exactly the same place, but Not There is creepier than Not Here. There's a big difference. In my mind anyway. n.n) Ghosts tend to have that freaky ability of disappearing and reappearing when your back is turned yelling at your boss. 'Oh well, I'll find her after work.'With that, Kagome skipped into the building humming 'Hi Ho It's Off To Work We Go', successfully annoying the lecherous janitor, (guess who) Miroku.
"Kagome, just watch some Snow White?" Miroku was dragging a trash can from what used to be a coat closet. The wheels where caught on the raised edge under the door. "And what took you so long outside?"
"No, I didn't just watch Snow White, and I was just talking to Grumpy thank you very much!" Kagome was about to go into the office to grab a name tag and check out the list of chores to do before opening time.
"Speaking of Grumpy, how is Sango? Missing me insanely yet?"
"As Sango's Best Friend and Stalker Guard, I am not authorized to disclose information on that subject." Miroku paused his war with the trash can to give Kagome his best hurt look.
"But Kagome, I would never stalk Dearest Sango!"
Kagome rolled her eyes, grinning as she entered the office and was given her name tag and told by Mitsuki that she only had to sweep the foyer. "Only sweep the foyer? That thing is huge! We need another janitor, and that is not me!" She grumbled exiting the room to ask Miroku for a broom. This was going to be a long day.

After only being interrupted six times by those evil, Kagome-hating projections, Kagome was pooped and not up for much Ghost Busting. Luckily, The Woman didn't make the poor over worked Kagome go looking for her. The first thing out of her mouth surprised Kagome a bit.
"I want you to date my boyfriend." What an opening line! The Woman didn't look phased at all, her face was a mask.
"I'm sorry, huh?" Kagome was confused. (So am I!)
"Date Inuyasha Takahashi. Once he's happy, I'll be able to move on." Apparently this woman was either in love, terribly blunt, or both.
"How did you know to come to me?" Kagome was acting proffesional, in other words, changing the subject. (You go girl!)
"An old woman going on about a ring." Oh. That answers one question. Kagome was sitting in her car, again.
"Well I'm Kagome and it would help if you would start at the begining, begining with your name."
"Kikyou Kreatru. My boyfriend is sad that I died. Make him happy." Still a mask.
"Okay, sure I'll help you." Like I said, Kagome was pretty sleepy and not thinking strait. She just agreed to date someone she hadn't even met!
"Good." Kagome could have sworn she saw the smallest smirk, which she interpreted as a smile.
Kikyou left as Kagome was turning on the car. She drove home, glad that she hadn't helped any ghosts move on. That she couldn't handle. As soon as she got home, Kagome went to her room and lost complete consciousness.
