Chapter One
&
Shuuichi's POV
It was the first day of school; I refrained from yawning as much as possible. As I entered my homeroom, girls started screaming, but I was used to that (that didn't mean I liked it; I was just used to it). A "Shuuichi Minamino fanclub" banner was waving in nearly every girls' hands. Except for one.
It was Kagome Higurashi, who was reading a book, her face furrowed in concentration. I didn't know her too well, but I rather liked her. Probably because she didn't scream at the mention of my name.
I smiled, giving my fanclub a small wave. A few girls yelled out their phone numbers. I recognized one girl, Yura (school slut), who hollered, "Come to my house at eight if you want to have a good time!"
Ignoring the girls in as polite a manner as I could, I sat gracefully onto my seat. A rather loud voice said, "Shuuichi?"
I looked up. It was Kikyo, the very mysterious girl who looked somewhat similar to Kagome only more mature. She gave a dazzling smile. "The school dance is next week. Wanna go with me?"
I added mentally, Similar to Kagome only more annoying.
I blinked up at her, giving a polite smile. "I'm sorry, I haven't decided whether I want to go or not. Perhaps you can ask me some other time… would that be alright?"
I said this all in one breath, although I took care to make pauses at the appropriate times so as to not sound… offended, I guess. She made a clicking noise with her tongue and walked off, clearly offended. Nice way to start the first day, huh? The bell rang just as my best friend, Hiei, came in with his twin sister, Yukina. I smiled. Some things never change. The teacher said disapprovingly, "You're both tardy, Hiei, Yukina."
Hiei snorted as Yukina mumbled a quiet apology. They were different in every aspect except for their heights, their eye color, and their care for one another, although it would take a trained eye to notice just how jumpy Hiei was at the mere mention of her name. I smiled sweetly at Hiei. "You're tardy," I whispered.
He smirked back at me. "Shut up, pretty boy."

Kagome's POV
I walked into the school grounds, my bag nearly splitting at the weight of books I carried (No matter how many times Inuyasha calls me nerd, I was so not one!). My best friends, Inuyasha and Sango, greeted me. Sango pawed at my book bag. "Lemme see your schedule, lemme see your schedule, lemme see your schedule!"
I stared at her. "How much sugar did you eat this morning?"
She laughed. "A few cupfuls", I gulped, "but it doesn't matter. Lemme see your schedule!"
I handed it cautiously to her, for fear of injury. She grabbed it, her face suddenly changing from hyper to thoughtful. "Hmm… three classes with me, five with Inuyasha . . . wow, Kagome, you have four of your classes with Shuuichi Minamino!"
I stared at her again. Speaking slowly, as if that would slow her down, I asked, "How did you know that…?"
She laughed again. "I stole his schedule when he wasn't looking. He's probably memorized all his classes anyways. The perfect bastard. He's got pretty hair though."
Inuyasha gave a snort, before saying gruffly, "I have five classes with Kanna. She's so freaking dead-looking I wonder why she's alive."
I was about to tell him that that wasn't nice, but Kagura interrupted.
"Excuse me, dog boy." She was Kanna's younger (but taller) sister. Quite a few people called him dog boy because of how all dogs seemed to be attracted to him (something we never let him live down). Kagura, however, was probably using it to mean that he was as low as dirt, or in this case, a dog. She sniffed and said softly, "My sister is more alive than you'll ever be. Insolent delinquent."
She swept past us with her nose in the air. I whispered to Inuyasha, "Nice going, dog boy."
Miroku came in, three hand marks clearly visible on his face. I smiled. The lecher. I asked him, "Who're the lucky victims?"
He sighed. "Keiko, Shizuru, and Kikyo. I gotta say, Kikyo's slaps hurt even more than Keiko's, and you know how hard hers are. She seemed mortally offend when I asked her to bear my child."
Sango gave him another thwack across the cheek. She said, in a mock- injured tone, "Miroku you pervert! I'm your girlfriend, got it? I thought that's what you wanted!"
Miroku laughed and whined, "But Sango, it's so fun to-"
Sango raised her eyebrows dangerously, staring at him with anger in her eyes, daring him to continue. All of us inched away from her cautiously, despite the fact that we weren't on the receiving end of her glare. The bell rang as we got into our third period seats. I sighed and opened my book.

Lunch Time
&
Inuyasha's POV
Damn! Why couldn't I be on the track team? Instead, my arch nemesis Kouga got it. There was a Back-to-School race between the two fastest in the school, Kouga and pretty-boy-Shuuichi's best friend, Hiei. I only knew Hiei because he was a part of my club (A/N OO more like gang).
I skipped lunch and walked to the track. There was an announcer there. I recognized a few people sitting in the crowds: Shuuichi, Kagome, Sango, and Shuuichi's ninth grade friends, Yusuke, Kuwabara, and Keiko.
The race started. I sat next to Shuuichi, whispering, "Who d'you think will win?"
He gave a small, polite smile as he answered. "Hiei."
I grinned. "I think it'll be Kouga, but I really want Hiei to win."
His smile turned fonder, more real than that polite shit he gave most people. "I don't think you've ever seen Hiei run."
I silently agreed, and proceeded to watch the race. My eyes bulged. Kouga had gained some speed over the summer. He was practically a human tornado; he was so fast. And Shuuichi was right about Hiei. I couldn't see anything but a black shadow zipping around the track with lightning speed.
"And the winner is… Hiei!"
He raised his hand in greeting to us (actually, more to Shuuichi than anyong else), though he didn't smile. I wasn't go-lucky enough to cheer for him, but I grinned, glad that Kouga had lost. Kouga walked towards Kagome, Sango, and me angrily. He then gave a horny smile at the sight of Kagome, who was the most popular girl; she was the prettiest, smartest, and most athletic in the tenth grade, or at least that was what many people thought; and said in a rather drunken voice, "Kagome, baby, I'm sorry I couldn't win for you!"
Kagome looked amused and slightly disgusted at his forwardness, saying, "I was rooting for Hiei, you big dummy, and I'm not your baby."
Waving a "Go, Hiei!" flag in his face, she added kindly, "I'm sorry you couldn't both win, though."
I snorted. Why was she so nice to him? Kouga's dark face brightened, as he said, "I'll win next time!"
I looked on the grounds and narrowed my eyes. It was Kikyo. She may look kind and sweet like Kagome, but her soul is pure evil. I may have thought she was hot before (we even had something once), but she had eyes only for Shuuichi, and she always got her way. She was so annoying! Currently, she was talking to Hiei, whose expression was stoic as always. Nothing she said seemed to affect him.
I caught a few words: "…to the dance?"
I snorted again. She still had a week left to ask people to the dance, the desperate bitch. Hiei gave a monotonous and brief answer(I couldn't even see him move his lips), which was probably "no," since Kikyou now looked hurt and angry, and walked on with a cold look in his red eyes (And I didn't understand how a guy's eyes could be red without contacts, which he doesn't have, so don't ask me).
Kikyo was about to grab onto his sleeve, when I walked to her and stopped her. "You fucking bitch, Hiei doesn't want you, so don't act so desperate, alright, slut?"
She stormed away. I could almost see steam sprouting out of her head. Shrugging, I went to fifth period.

After School
&
Kikyo's POV
How dare they! First Shuuichi, the guy I wanted most to go with, rejected me. I didn't even notice that he was trying to be polite; a rejection is still a rejection. Then Miroku, the person I wanted to go with the least (Except maybe for Kazuma Kuwabara), had to ask me to bear his child and groped me. I'm still sick with the thought of it.
Next there was Hiei. The second hottest guy in the school. His racing was magnificent, and don't I deserve the best? Or second best in this case since Shuu-kun freaking rejected me, I asked him. Not only did he ignore me, Inuyasha had to stop me from trying again! How dare he call me a slut and cuss in my presence? How dare he be so rude to a lady? How dare they treat me like that? How dare they!
I went to my locker, and a book full of spells fell out. I stared at it. How did it get there? Curious, I decided to read a few pages. And coincidentally, there was a spell for body-switching right on the page I opened to. After reading a few lines, and after seeing how, how easy this spell was, the solution was clear. I smiled. "If they won't go with me, they won't go with who they want, either!"

After School, a few moments later
&
Shuuichi's POV
I was walking home. I said "hi" to a few students, walked across a few streets, same as usual. Suddenly I felt extremely dizzy and started clutching my head. And the next instant, I fainted.
Suddenly, someone was splashing cold water on my face. I got up, suddenly feeling the strange urge to curse. I had strange memories of a place that was not my home…
"Inuyasha?" I stopped. It was Kagome.
First not turning around, I examined my hair. What in the… It was black, like Inuyasha's. At least, I thought it was… Hallucinations after fainting were plausible. I faced Kagome, my hand on my head; I winced slightly at the pain in my head but refrained from groaning. She said urgently, "Are you alright Inuyasha? You fainted."
I nodded slowly, feeling a strange, slight pang of jealousy towards the real Inuyasha for no reason at all, and resisted another urge to curse. I smiled faintly, realizing it now. It was impossible—completely and utterly impossible. And yet I could see no other explanation for it. I was in Inuyasha's body.

A/N: That's the first chapter! I really don't think Kikyo is evil, just hateful. It's not her fault. I only made her evil because it'll satisfy Jenny (hopefully...). I'm sorry about how childishly I made her, but I can't really revise it at the moment.
I want you to know that Hiei, Inuyasha, and Miroku have also been affected xD.
Extra note: This chapter is revised because I saw so many mistakes and decided that since I have time, why not? I'm currently typing chapter 25 and please bear with the wait (today is 10/3/05). Also, if you're reading as of now, and the later chapters seem different, don't blame me. I'll try to edit them all when I get the chance.
4/23/05: Dedicated to Lexi-Teniro for giving such a long, well typed-out review for chapter 21! I might start answering questions if readers have any. Er, if I have answers to give (I'm not that organized a person, and I created this story before I'd thought of a coherent storyline)…
Finally, review! Flames shall be mocked.
