Inuyasha hesitated across the street. From afar he had already seen Sango and Kagome, who were standing in front of the cinema and were talking animatedly. Kagome says something and her friend burst out laughing. The half-demon buried his hands in his trouser pockets and came over to them. "Hi!" Sango shouted and hugged him while Kagome just smiled at him. "Give us your money, then we'll go buy the tickets, can you wait that long for Miroku?" Asked the demon hunter. Inuyasha nodded, wordlessly held out his money and watched as the two of them disappeared into the cinema entrance, giggling.

"Tell me, does he always talk so much?" Asked Kagome and laughed.
Sango looked at her sideways. "He's shy, I told you. Besides, how would you feel in his situation? So don't make fun of him."
"It's good. But I wonder if the rumors are true ...", she said her thoughts out loud.
“Just ask him.” Sango looked at the display board showing the trailers for the current films. Kagome did the same and said:
"No, that would be totally anti-social. What should we see?" The two looked at each other with a nasty grin and stood at the cash register.

The half demon stood alone in front of the cinema and was lost in thought. So he should wait for a guy he didn't know. Well, he knew Miroku from kindergarten, they had been in the same group, but he really didn't have much to do with him. Actually nothing. Inuyasha paid no attention to him and vice versa.
"Hey." Startled, he looked up and the trained monk stood in front of him. "Um, hi," said the half-demon and looked at the person opposite. Miroku looked casual as he stood there whistling after girls. "Well? Lust?", He asked just one and the addressed only raised her eyebrows and went on. Sighing, he turned to Inuyasha. "Where are the girls? Oh no, don't you say they went to get the tickets?", he exclaimed in horror and:" Shit! "when his counterpart nodded." Then let's go inside. "

"Thank you," said Sango and took the four cards. "Where do we go after the cinema? Insomnia?" The demon hunter nodded, "if Inuyasha doesn't mind." Now the two were waiting for the other two. When they turned the corner, Miroku ran up to them and hugged them. “My favorite girls!” Kagome laughed and playfully punched him on the arm. "You have a lot of favorites. Look, those there for example", she indicated a tall beauty who just came out of the toilet. The monk shook his head. "She looks like a giraffe," he said, then looked at Sango and smiled. He walked over to her and put his arm around her shoulder, which she skillfully pushed away. Miroku sighed and turned to Inuyasha. He just shrugged his shoulders and smiled.
"Don't you want to know which film we chose?" Kagome asks the two boys while Sango went to get popcorn and cola. "Definitely another musical film ..." said Miroku, annoyed. Kagome exclaimed enthusiastically: "Exactly!", And laughed when she saw the tortured expression on the two faces. Sango came back with various bags and a drink holder with four bottles in it. Inuyasha took it from her and they went to the cinema together. While Miroku and Sango were arguing where to sit, Kagome simply plopped down on any seat in the 4th row. "Kagome! You can't see anything!", Sango called to her and the person addressed rolled her eyes in annoyance. She turned around and shouted: "Children! Quiet now! Every time we go to the cinema it's the same! Either you sit next to me now or I'm gone!"
5 minutes later, Sango was on her left and Miroku on her right. Inuyasha sat next to this and distributed the drinks.
"By the way, I paid for your movie ticket, Miroku. Give me the money back," Sango said without taking her eyes off the screen.He gave her the money and they watched the movie in silence.

Two and a half hours later the four came out in a depressed mood. Miroku was just annoyed by the movie, Sango was still mad at whatever, Kagome was in a bad mood because of the two of them and Inuyasha didn't understand why the mood had changed so much. But under no circumstances did he want it to continue like this. "Shall we go to the bar?" He asked, looking at the three of them. Sango just nodded and mocked off, Miroku ran after her and Kagome said: "Guys ... I don't feel like it anymore. You really spoiled everything. See you tomorrow, at school!" They hadn’t talked at all and he thought he had the chance in the club. 'Next time...'

Kagome stomped furiously through the back alleys to make her move faster. The main streets were still very busy at this time and she didn't feel like squeezing through the crowd. Her mood was already at its low point anyway. She was cold, hungry and annoyed. The movie was okay, but if Sango and Miroku hadn't been mad at each other, it would have been funnier. Lost in thought, she crossed the street and turned back into an alley.
What a shame, she hadn't talked to Inuyasha at all. Kagome wanted to form her own opinion about him, because somehow she couldn't believe the rumors. Ayame, a classmate of hers, had only told her last week that he had run amok at the boarding school where he had been in 8th grade. In addition, the half-demon is said to turn into a full-fledged demon when the moon is full, and for that day his parents would lock him up in a cage in the basement. The most believable thing she'd heard so far was that he was a drug addict. Which sounds totally absurd, since the drugs have no effect on him.
She sighed and jumped over a puddle.From a distance you could see the Higurashi Shrine and she hurried, because the faster she was there, the faster she was in the warm. Kagome ran up the long stairs and across the temple grounds. Her mother was just turning the corner, a trash can in hand. "Well honey, how was it?" She asked now and opened the door so that both could enter. Her daughter peeled off her jacket and looked at her in annoyance. "As always, Sango and Miroku fought and ruined the whole atmosphere. They wanted to go to the bar, but I'd rather learn something for the bio-test tomorrow," answered Kagome and went up the stairs. Briefly she stopped by her brother, who was already asleep and she opened her own door. Thoughtfully, she sank down on her bed.
'Somehow strange ... When the four of us stood in the hall, I felt something strange ... A throbbing or something like that. What was that?'
