An: Yup, I’m the author called ‘Nai’, in the A Single Spark. This is one of the stories. I just changed a few things.

Disclaimer: I really wish I do own Inu Yasha, but oh well . . .


Part 1 - The Higurashis'

"Lighten up, Kagome," Kikyou sighed with a smiled, "This new school could be a very good change for us." The older girl grinned at her younger yawned, "Sure, having to wake up at this godforsaken hour is SO much fun," she said trudging down the steps of the shrine. "You might get used to it, but for me," She stretched, "I'll just snooze the whole class periods away," She said under her breath.

She glanced down at her uniform seeing a guy's uniform instead of the normal school-girl uniform. Kagome was thankful that Shikon High's color was black and purple instead of the original black and blue. Kikyou wore a pleated black skirt, and purple shirt under a black vest, as a student female should, but for her, she wore the normal black so-called military suit for a male student. It’s strange, but it’s better as a guy that a girl’s revealing their legs.

"Oi," Kagome started as they began their walk to school. Kikyou turned to her with a raised eyebrow questioning, "Since when the hell did you start being a goody-too-shoe?"

Kikyou turned to her and smiled lightly, "And when did you start getting nosey?" Her voice was soft that Kagome barely caught that, "Aren't you happy that we're not under that bastard’s house anymore? Why ask these trivial, insignificant questions?" Kikyou tilted her head at the younger girl. The older twin never really likes to inquire about changes.

Kagome raised her arms and placed it under her head, "Ha. Ha. Ha. Kikyou,” Kagome paused for a second before continuing, “But I'm sort of used to kicking his ass that I don't know if I could break the habit anymore." Right then, a smirk started to slowly rise up on Kagome’s lips, “You could say, he was a good dummy.”

Kikyou furrowed her eyebrows, "Kagome," she grumbled, "If you make trouble . . ."

"Yeah, YOU will beat the crap out of me," Kagome shook her head. "Come on sis, if you promise me not to go psychopath, then I won't cause any fight, unless . . ." Kagome smiled with a strange look in her eyes, "They start the fight."

Kikyou clenched her fist, "No!" Kagome practically jumped at her tone of voice. It was so demanding. "Kagome, I don't want you to cause trouble, it's enough at the other school," She said softly, “I rather be put in a mental hospital than for other people to know anything about us.”

The younger twin sighed, "Sure, I'll do it for you, just as long as you don’t get psychotic, I'm fine."

Kikyou sigh in relief. Knowing Kagome, it's a fifty percent chance that she'll stay OUT of trouble. They lived their whole lives in a bad neighborhood, so it’s obvious how tough Kagome is even if she doesn’t show much. But as for Kikyou, it’s much worst.

"This is nice," Kikyou looked up and smiled.

As Kagome grasped the falling cherry blossom in her right hand, she spoke, "We never have this sort of things at our old neighborhood," She whispered, gently unclasping her hand and letting it slowly fall. Kikyou nodded in agreement. True to Kagome’s word, it’s hard to find any sort of nature-related things anywhere in a neighborhood with an atmosphere of hell.

Kikyou smile as she turned the corner, walking from Kagome as the tomboy jumped and hit the cherry blossoms until it filled her head.

"Kagome, look!" Kikyou yelled, her eyes only widen a bit.

As Kagome walked around, her eyes was wider than any human’s capacity, "S-So big!" She exclaimed. A grin came to her lips, "I didn't know private schools look so-so-so," she gulped, "Sugoi," Kagome had to bite her lips from jumping up and down like a kid receiving a present.

The two twins had never in their life seen such a place. Everything was so neat, that it burned their eyes.

"There's no calligraphy or anything," said Kikyou, "I can't believe something existed that it isn’t,” she paused looking for the right word to say, “Tainted.”

Kagome nodded as they entered the gate, "And the most astonishing part is, we get to actually attend here," She was so excited that she couldn't keep the glistening from her sapphire eyes.

Even though Kikyou was equally excited, she didn't smile. Her chocolate brown eyes were the only source that told anyone that Kikyou was enjoying this as much as Kagome. The only feature the twin doesn’t have in common is their eyes.

"I can't wait," Kikyou said calmly as if she wasn't excited.

Kagome was the only one that could tell behind Kikyou’s calm exterior of her emotions. What can she say, it’s a twin thing. . As they reached the office, she dragged Kikyou in. They both stopped in their tracks as they opened the door to the office, "No way . . ." Whispered Kagome as she stared with wide eyes at the place. It was neatly organized, and students were in here also helping instead of sitting, slouching, or arguing with teachers. It was too amazing to describe.

"Ah, welcome you two," A warm deep voice spoke. They looked to the side to see a man in his forties' or so, "You must be the Higurashis', am I correct?" They nodded mutely, still too surprise.

He smiled at them and stepped towards them. He doesn't seem that old considering he was buff-looking with only a faint hint of mustache, "Please to meet you. So am I guessing you two are twins?" He shook hands with the calmer Kikyou, and then the nervous Kagome, "So, young man, I'm supposing your Kagome?" He raised an eyebrow inquiry.

"Kagome's not-" Kikyou was cut off by the shaking of head of her twin's head.

"Yup, that's me sir," Kagome smiled. She could feel Kikyou’s eyes narrowing directly at her. Even though no one could actually tell from looking, but Kikyou was angered.

He looked towards Kikyou, "Kikyou Higurashi, the older twin if I am correct."

Kikyou nodded, "Yes sir that’s me."

The man smiled roughly and nodded his head, "This is called Shikon High created over a few hundred years ago by a respectable legend, a miko named Midoriko,” His eyes narrowed suddenly, “I take it you both won't ruin it."

They both glared at the man, coldly. Kagome clenched her fist ready to strike him, but Kikyou took a hold of her hand which relaxed Kagome somewhat.

"I assure you, we won't possible RUIN this precious place," Kikyou looked darkly at the man, "If the students decide to start,” Her tone was getting dangerous, “That’s another story.”

Kagome bit her tongue from insulting the huge dude in front of them. "SO if you don't mind," Kagome bit out through clenched teeth, "Could you hand us our schedule?" Kagome glanced nervously at Kikyou who by now regained her sense.

"Remember well Higurashis', I am the vice principle, Mr. Anshiko, so I don’t want any trouble," He said as he handed them each a schedule.

Kikyou and Kagome turned away from the man as they went out of the office. When they started to walk through the hall, Kagome punched the wall, careful not to break it. "Who the hell does he think he is?" She asked angrily. She looked over to Kikyou and saw her looking down. "You aren’t going berserk on me now are you Kikyou?"

"I-I won't," Kikyou looked up with a grin, "I won't. Not now, not ever."

Kagome sighed. As Kikyou and Kagome started to head up the stairs to find their classes, they couldn't help to notice a lot of stares and hear words such as . . .

"Woah, twins."

"He's cute.”

"She's hot, probably her figure is even better than Kagura."

"He has such a pretty face, kawaii!."

"Look at his eyes."

"She's so beautiful. I bet her hair is silky."

"I don't think I've ever seen a perfect body as hers'."

"He’s maybe a short, but I bet his body is hot."

Kagome and Kikyou pace quickens when they feel the stares and hear the giggles. As they reached the corner, they stopped abruptly. Every person's eyes were on them.

"Okay, what the hell's up with this school?" Asked Kagome to Kikyou as they walked pass everyone.

Kikyou kept her head low as she lead the way to the stairs, "Let's try to ignore them," she whispered back. As Kikyou about to turn the corner, she slammed right into a body, making her lose her balance and fall. Unfortunately, Kagome endured the pain of the ground as Kikyou landed on top of her twin and making Kagome's back hit the floor.

"Watch where you’re going, you fuckin' asshole!" Kikyou looked up surprised at the curse word directed to her. She couldn't help but pass a glare at him.

Kagome pushed her sister up away from her, making the boy's eyes land on her, "So you’re the wise guy eh? You freakin bastard!"

After dusting herself off, Kagome turned towards the dude that accused her, "What the hell! You’re the one that came out of nowhere and bumped into us!" She yelled. "And you have the gale to INSULT me?"

His golden eyes widen in surprise at the boy. No one in his life has ever spoken to him like that except his father maybe, "I can insult you anytime I want pretty boy," He said, shoulders’ tensing.

Kagome didn't back down as she smirked, "Kikyou, when I said the one who starts the fight, I meant an idiot whoever tried to oppose me will be sent to the hospital," She bit out. Kikyou furrowed her eyebrows as she saw the arm that was ready to hit Kagome.

Kagome ducked from him, as he ducked from her low kick. Before each of them could punch each other in the face, Kikyou walked in the middle, and caught their fist in her hand. They both blinked in surprise.

Instead of yelling at the boy for trying to hurt his little sister, she bowed low to the waist, "I'm sorry about my little sis-" she cut herself off from the look of Kagome, "BROTHER's rude behavior." She smiled kindly, but forcefully at him.

The boy on the other hand just stared at her as she spoke. So . . .Beautiful . . . He shook his head as they walked passed him. Before the girl left, he grabbed on to her wrist "Err . . .Uh . . ." he seems to be speechless as she stared at him with a calm smiled.

"Hey! Let go my sis, baka." He came out of his daze from the boy behind the girl. "What? Trying to hit on her now?" He was flushed in the face.

"N-No stupid!" He let go of her wrist, "Feh, name's Inu Yasha Takayama."

Kikyou raised her eyebrows in mild surprise. A smiled suddenly came to her lips, "My name is Kikyou Higurashi." She reached her right hand towards him. He grasped her hand with his right one and they shook. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Takayama." she referred to his last name.

He nodded slowly, "Same to you Higurashi."

Kagome watched the whole interaction with curiosity, Eh? Why'd she making friends with him?

"This is my younger brother," Inu Yasha glanced over Kikyou shoulders to see his brother, "Kagome Higurashi."

"The pretty boy is your twin?" He asked, “Younger one at that?”

Kagome glared at Inu Yasha, "So what if I am?" She asked, "At least I don't have my hair bleached."

"What!" Inu Yasha asked enraged, "This is my original hair style, moron!"

"Yeah right! I never saw anybody in my life with silver hair!" She exclaimed almost accusingly.

"Kagome," the younger twin shut her mouth then, but grumbled a curse word under her breath directed towards Inu Yasha.

The older twin shook he head as she turned back to Inu Yasha, "We're new here, if you don't mind," she paused as she took out her schedule, "Mind showing us we're our class is?" She asked calmly.

"Sure-"

"Inu Yasha."

The three turned towards the new figure. Kikyou raised an eyebrow.

Kagome looked at him with her mouth twitching.

This school is even weirder than my original school.


This is the same story in A Single Spark because I’m the author of Different, yet so Alike. I completely forgotten I had a story there! Until I went there again, and then, there it is! . , sry about that, kind of excited that I actually started a non-crossover fiction. Too bad, I completely forgotten about it . . . oops.

Well anyway, hope you enjoy and . . . review! I changed a few stuff from the other original.
