Inuyasha High

Chapter 50: Cursed?

After a long semester, final exams were about to begin. They only had one more week to study before exam week. The usual gang were in their study hall class. Kagome had her head buried in her book, along with Sango. Miroku took some notes in his notebook from his class textbook. Inuyasha had his pencil in his mouth with his legs up on the desk, rocking back and forth in his chair.

Kagome looked over at the silver haired teen with a sigh,
"You really should be studying Inuyasha..."

Inuyasha scoffed,
"Psh please, I don't need to study. No point if I'm not going to college."

"I don't know where I'll be either, but just in case I am going to try," Sango said.

"Aren't you taking over your pop's business?" Inuyasha asked.

"I'm not sure...I know he wants me or Kohaku to but, I feel I can do more," Sango lightly replied.

"What about you Miroku?" Inuyasha questioned.

Miroku sighed deeply,
"I know I will still train as a monk and take over Mushin's temple. Other than that, I am not sure. Maybe a doctor or a surgeon?"

"I'm surprised it wasn't a perverted answer," Inuyasha chuckled.

"Honestly Inuyasha, do you think that lowly of me?" Miroku questioned reaching for Sango's hand.

Sango slowly pulled her hand away,
"Yeah right monk...What about you Kagome?"

Kagome kept her head in her book,
"I honestly don't think I will even have good enough grades to do anything. I keep studying over and over and it still won't stick in my brain."

"You can do it Kagome! You're one of the smartest people I know!" Sango encouraged.

"Thanks Sango, I guess if I had to pick I would love to be a mom. I know that's not seen as a real job by a lot of people..."

Inuyaha felt himself blush.

"...so maybe a teacher of some sorts, for younger kids of course!"

"I'm sure being a parent is a lot of hard work. After all, it's just a job you don't get paid money for," Inuyasha stated trying to encourage her.

Kagome smiled a bit.

"You'd be a great mom Kagome," Sango said happily.

"Agreed." Miroku shortly stated.

"Inuyasha, you never answered, what would you be?" Kagome asked.

Inuyasha crossed his arms,
"I guess being a mechanic would be cool, or maybe I'll go into the military like my dad did."

"The military? I don't think you would last," Miroku giggled to himself.

"What do you mean?!" Inuyasha said with an attitude.

"You don't even listen in class," Miroku argued.

"Inuyasha, wouldn't that mean you would have to leave us for while?" Kagome asked in concern.

Inuyasha fell quiet again,
"Yeah I guess so..."

Miroku suddenly winced and grabbed his hand. He lightly gritted his teeth and struggled to take a deep breath.

"Miroku? Are you alright?" Sango reached over to hold his hand.

Kagome and Inuyasha leaned closer to the monk in concern.

"I'm fine everyone, I-I am fine. It's going away..." Miroku trailed off.

Sango and the other felts their eyebrows furrow in worry.
