Another Girl Joins In Feudal Era

The Smell

*Roxanne's POV*

Hi! My name's Roxanne. I'm a 17 years old average student, who happened to just move into Tokyo from Ohio. Honestly, I know nothing much about Japan, leave alone Tokyo, but I did know one thing: I really love Japanese people! Anyway, today is my first day in school here in Tokyo. I was sitting with my friend named Kagome Higurashi alone in class when a boy in bright red kimono walked in. He wore a cap that kinda made me feel like it didn't really match with his kimono outfit.

InuYasha: Here you are.

Kagome: InuYasha? What're you doing here??

InuYasha: I came here to get you of course.

Kagome: To get me? *nervously looking towards curious Roxanne then back at him* Yes, well, I'll be back after school. Why don't you wait for me back at home?

InuYasha: I can't; it's important that you come right away, Kagome.

Kagome: I said I'll be back after school is over.

InuYasha: Huh? Something smells...

Kagome: What?

InuYasha walked into the class while sniffing his nose in the air. This all made me feel even curious. I mean, why was he sniffing the air like a dog? I only blinked at him in silence before realizing that this boy's face was only an inch away from me.

Roxanne: *both blinks at each other* Kya!

I suddenly gave a slap on his face. I've never been so close face-to-face with a guy like that so my reaction was sudden. He went crashing on the floor, hitting the desks & benches as he fell. His eyes twitched and so did his fingers while I looked at him nervously.

Kagome: Uh...

InuYasha: *growls* What the heck was that for?!

Roxanne: You were standing too close!

InuYasha: Just because you had that strange smell.

Roxanne: What do you mean?

InuYasha: Forget it. Let's go, Kagome.

Kagome: *sighs* Well, guess I'll have to leave first, Roxanne.

Roxanne: Huh? Oh it's okay, see you tomorrow then.

I waved her goodbye as she left with the grumpy looking boy named InuYasha.

*InuYasha POV*

Kagome: How come I don't get to spend some more quality time with my family?

InuYasha: Quit complaining. It's not my fault that you can sense the jewel shards.

Kagome: Hmph! Well anyway, about earlier, what do you mean by the strange smell from my friend Roxanne?

InuYasha: She... *pauses* She smelled... *growls* Forget it.

Kagome: Huh? But why?

InuYasha: Never mind! Get inside the well already, we need to hurry.

Kagome frowned before she jumped into the well while I was drowned into the thoughts for a while; a thought on that girl's smell; the smell of Kikyo...
