My fanfic: Sakura Academy: Prologue
PROLOGUE
The steady annoying buzz of the alarm clock, combined with the sweet and gentle yet surprisingly loud voice of her mother brought, seventeen year old Kagome Higurashi from her deep slumber. She rolled over and away from the warn sunlight streaming in through her curtains, only to come face to face with the wide eyed stare from her cat, Buyo.
“Ahh!” Kagome screamed as she sat up. When her heart stopped pounding, she turned her head to glare at Buyo, who was still sitting in her bed looking at her calmly and as unruffled as before.

“Don’t do that Buyo. You could have- and nearly did- give me a heart attack, and how d__?” She cut off right there as she heard sniggering from the side of her bed. She slowly grabbed a pillow from behind her and flung it down over the side of the bed.

“Ouch! Whadya do that for!” said the voice of a small boy (he was about eleven) as he came up from where he’d been hiding. Kagome threw him a glare as she got up from the bed to stretch. When she was done with that she turned to look at her brother Souta.

“Don’t act dumb, you know perfectly well why I hit you. You put Buyo on my bed…again. And on top of that, I told you to stay out of room while I’m sleeping, no scratch that I told you to stay out of my room period!” Kagome yelled at him, stifling a yawn. Souta grinned, “I couldn’t help myself, you looked so peaceful.”

Kagome sighed, ‘Oh he was so annoying’, she thought. “Just get out and don’t come back unless I tell you to, or you’ll be sorry. Do you understand me?” Souta nodded, picked up Buyo, and left his sisters room. ‘Maybe I won’t bother her for a while she seemed serious.’ Then he grinned, “Nah.” Souta mad his way downstairs to the kitchen where his mother stood chopping something for their breakfast.

Back up stairs, Kagome was taking a shower. (At this time I would like to take this time to tell you about Kagome. She is 17 years old, will be a high school senior when school starts back up again. She’s an all AB student. She has midnight black hair with bluish streaks in the front, blue-grey eyes, about 5’7, and is a priestess. You’ll get a taste of her power if you make her mad enough. That’s all for now).

After her shower, Kagome donned a miko’s garb, blue hakama and white haori, tied back her damp hair, and left her room. She could smell her mother’s delicious cooking. She walked into the kitchen and kissed her mother on the cheek. “Good morning mother,” she said. “Good morning dear,” her mother replied. Kagome walked into the dinning room, where her brother was playing with Buyo. She was about to sit down at the table, when her grandfather walked in from outside, he sat at the table.

“Kagome,” he said, “I’m going to need your help with a lot of things around the shrine today, I would do them all myself, but I want to give you some practice with your powers, I also want to see if their stronger than mine.” He finished. Souta sniggered discreetly. Kagome swallowed another sigh, she was not stupid. Her grandfather didn’t have an ounce of spiritual power in him. He just made up extraordinary tales of his (non-existent) power and things he did when he was younger. Of course, Kagome would never put him down by voicing her thoughts aloud, so she just nodded her head at him, and gave Souta a look. Soon after, her mother came in with the breakfast and Kagome got up to help. When they were all seated, they said their blessings, and ate. After breakfast, Kagome helped her mother clear the table. She would have washed the dishes as well, but her mother told her not to worry about them, and that she was sure Grandpa needed her help, now that he’d gotten so old.

Kagome reluctantly agreed and went outside. She suspected that her grandfather was in the well-house putting up more “protective seals” around the well the people call the “Bone-Eaters Well”. As she made her way to the well-house, she saw a man wearing a business suit walking up the stairs. ‘Maybe he’s here to talk to mom’. Kagome thought with a shrug. When she reached the well-house, she heard a commotion from inside. Quickly opening the sliding door, she ran inside to find that her grandfather was trying (unsuccessfully) to ward off a demon with his useless wards. Kagome ran forward to move in front of her grandfather as the demon raised its claws and slashed them downwards towards them. Kagome put her hands in front of her as if to ward the demon off and then a blinding blue light shot out from her raised hands.

The light shot towards the demon, blasting it to dust, and unfortunately blowing away half of a wall as well. Kagome lowered her hands and turned to her grandfather, whose eyes still held fear, but also a lot of awe. “Are alright Grandpa?” Kagome asked with concern. Her grandfather was not a young man, and that demon could have easily killed him or just as easily could’ve given him a heart attack. “I’m just fine Kagome, don’t worry about me. Thank you for your help.” He replied.

Kagome looked back to where the demon had last stood. “Where did that demon come from, and why did it attack you?” Kagome asked her grandfather. It was unusual that a demon would step foot in a shrine. Her Grandpa replied, “I’m not sure where it came from, but I came in here to put up more protective seals (see what did I tell you), and to sweep, and that demon was already in here. I didn’t see it at first; actually I didn’t see it at all until I was almost face to face with it. You came in at the right time my dear. I could’ve dealt with it easily enough, had it not surprised me so. An old man such as myself can’t really take these kinds of surprises.”

Kagome nodded, and was about to reply, when she heard her mothers concerned voice, “Kagome, Father, what happened?” Kagome and her grandfather both turned toward the well-house entrance, where her mother, Souta, and that man in the business suit were standing. Kagome noticed that they weren’t looking at them, but at the wall that she had blasted away. Kagome sighed, and started rubbing the back of her head, and laughed guiltily. “A demon was attacking Grandpa when I came in, and I didn’t think, I just rushed forward in front of Grandpa, and I blew the demon as well as part of that wall away. I’m sorry mom.” Kagome told her mother.

Her mother smiled at her, “Its okay Kagome, you saved father, and that’s what matters. You’ll learn to control your powers with time.” She looked at her father (you know I’m not sure whether he’s her real father or her father-in-law. If you know, please tell me.) “I hope you’re alright father, what’s wrong Kagome dear?” Her mother inquired of her. Kagome was looking doubtfully at her hands. “I doubt that I’ll ever be able to fully control me powers. They seem to have a will of their own, I mean, they react to what I’m feeling. And I know I can’t control what I feel, so I know I won’t be able to fully control my powers.” Kagome told her.

“Don’t be so sure of that, Miss Higurashi.” The man in the business suit had spoken.
