He was holding the bag high over his head, and when she made to grab it he swung it around and out of her reach. The only things left in the bag now were heavy textbooks and school notes that had consumed most of her attention lately. Over her last week in the Senjoku Jedai she had spent more time worrying about studying for her exams than getting killed by Naraku, and Inuyasha made his annoyance very well known. Now she had to leave to be in time for her exams in the morning, and Inuyasha was not too keen on letting her go.
"Are these exam things really so important?" he asked, lifting the bag higher and out of Kagome's reach again.
"Only if I want to get into a good high school!" she raged.
"Keh," Inuyasha grumbled, "School, big deal."
Kagome's face turned an ugly shade of red, and her hands balled into fists at her sides. Inuyasha's ears fell back against his skull, and his eyes widened against Kagome's piercing glare. He knew exactly what was coming next.
"Inuyasha…." she said almost musically, a vein visibly throbbing at her temple, "SIT!"
Inuyasha felt his body tense, his limbs going stiff before his neck was pulled downward by the beaded rosary he wore. His body slammed into the ground, creating a hanyou-shaped depression in the soft earth. He could feel as the backpack was plucked from his immobile claws, and he regained control of his body just in time to see Kagome disappearing into the well with it.
Inuyasha jumped to his feet and perched himself on the lip of well. He peered down into it and found only darkness. Kagome was probably on the other side already, running up to her room to do more studying or something. Inuyasha sighed, his ears drooping.
"Good luck, Kagome," he said softly before jumping down and heading back towards the village to find the rest of his friends.
