Miko-Fried Kitsune ala Mode

"So where are we going?" Kagome questioned curiously as she walked besides her friends down the sidewalk, each of them clothed in their green and white school uniforms and shouldering backpacks from a tediously long day at school. Kagome was still weary from Sengoku Jidai, her entire body scraped and bruised from the last battle with Naraku for jewel shards. There was one particular nasty wound on her back, when one of the demon's tentacles had sliced across her back when she shielded Shippou from getting hurt. It had hurt so much she had barely managed to shoot arrows the rest of the battle, much less keep her eyes open from blood-loss.

Sango had taken care of her in the hut before she returned to her time, wrapping bandages completely around her torso and chest to stop the blood. Kagome had her mother change it again this morning before she came to school. Not one of her friends had noticed the injury through her flimsy white shirt today, but they did notice the square piece of gauze taped to her cheek covering a small cut from the same fight, suspecting foul play by her "Insane boyfriend." She had been to tired to even deny it during school.

Even now, she just wanted to turn and head home if not for the sake of her three friends. They hadn't seen her in well over a month, so the least she could do was sacrifice her afternoon for them. Especially if it would ease their mind knowing she wasn't sick or with Inuyasha today.

"We wanted to treat you to somewhere new, since you've been sick for so long." Ayumi smiled. They waited for the light to turn green before they crossed the street and Kagome marveled at the unfamiliar buildings. She hadn't been this far from the shrine in a very long time. Not since her father was alive at the very least. "And Yuka found the perfect place to take you."

"Uh-hmh. We tried it out last week, and the food was way better than WacDonald's." Eri confirmed while she flung her arm over the priestess's shoulders and steered her gaze across the street to a normal looking two-story building, signs hanging from the bottom-floor windows declaring "Yukimura Noodle Shop."

"And the best part is..." Yuka finally entered the conversation as she glanced behind her at their usually-ill friend with a impish, Cheshire grin. "They always have the most interesting customers." Kagome narrowed her eyes in sudden suspicion.

"Like them." Eri jabbed her finger in to air, pointing at the group making their way to the shop from the opposite direction. "They were here last time we came too. I think their friends of the owner's daughter."

"You think?" Ayumi frowned, squinting to examine the group of boys again.

"Yeah, I heard one of them is dating her." Yuka answered, running her hand through her short black hair. "Have you ever heard of Yusuke Urimeshi? He's the one dating her."

"No way!" Ayumi squealed loudly, her eyes wide in disbelief. "The same one that rescued the little boy from being hit by a car? I remembered our teachers having us make cards for him to get well. I thought he died though."

"He did. But I guess the doctors recessitated him in the ambulance." Yuka shrugged. "He was in a coma for a few months though."

"That's so cool." Eri sighed dreamily. "I remember hearing he was thug though." She turned to her oddly silent friend, eager for more gossip about the unusual couple that she might have to offer. "What about you, Kagome-chan?"

Kagome said nothing, making no sign of having heard her friend or even have a clue of what they were talking about. "Kagome?" Her gaze remained fixated on the group with a wide, incredulous stare. The priestess's face had long since drained of it's color as she gazed intently on the tall, handsome red-head who had paused at the doorway, glancing back at them. The three friends immediately recognized the boy with bright flushes on their cheeks.

"...Shippou...?" Kagome whispered, just before her friends squealed and gripped on to her like the end of the world was coming.

"Oh my god, that's Shuuichi Minamino!"
