Theme Park Thrill

Hi people! Yes, I'm back with another humorous story involving the Inuyasha-tachi! Anyone who hasn't read 'The Dreaded Dance floor' doesn't know what funny is, and it has a little bit to do with this current story. I recommend reading DDF before starting on this one. Those of you who have read my previous fic are in for a real treat! Theme Park Thrill is a story with a whole new funny to it!

One thing though, this story will be considerably shorter because the theme park action will take place during the limited space of one day, not one week like in DDF. I'll try and extend it as much as I can though, for all you great readers!

Disclaimer: (Author wakes up sweating from a dream) Holy Moly! I dreamt Inuyasha wasn't mine! Oh wait…IT ISN'T.

(Summary from DDF's epilogue)

Naraku wants to find out what a rollercoaster is, so Kagome has no choice but to concede, eventually stomping off towards the direction of the Bone Eater's Well with Naraku and her group of friends in her wake…

Chapter 1: As Chaos Gathers…

During the time it took to walk to the well, Kagome's savage temper had effectively burned itself out and now she was just desperately thinking what she was going to do. Naraku was so frustrating! Who would have thought that hers and Inuyasha's arch nemesis was going to accompany them to the modern era…again…only because he had taken an interest in a piece of machinery? Kagome could have slapped herself for letting the word 'rollercoaster' slip while she was being flung about by one of Naraku's many tentacles.

The scorching afternoon sun beat down upon the travelling groups' backs, despite the many trees that offered them shade as they trudged through the forest towards the well. There was a tense silence throughout the journey and even Shippou had been left with little to say. Or maybe he was just scared stiff of having Naraku walk among his friends. Miroku and Sango occasionally gave the dark haired hanyou nervous glances but he, on the other hand, had never looked so content. He was positively humming with happiness.

Inuyasha looked up and all he saw was clear blue sky through the spaces left by the canopy of trees in the forest. He sighed heavily and wiped the sweat from his brow, trying to think of something else other than the afternoon heat or getting his hands around Naraku's throat.

The number of trees became less as they neared the clearing where the well was situated and Kagome didn't know whether to cry of relief or despair as she saw the familiar wooden construction. She turned around and lifted a hand to her eyes to shield them from the sun's bright rays.

"Okay, so we're here." She said. Naraku smiled at her and stepped closer. Inuyasha put his guard up and a hand on Tessaiga in case he tried anything.

"My goodness, that was a long walk, wasn't it?" he said, his voice inexplicably silky. Kagome began to feel dread creep up inside of her. This was not a good idea, she thought. She began to wonder if Naraku was up to something. She was right.

"Yeeees…unfortunately, I've failed to remember the teensiest thing," He began, lightly tapping the side of his head with the heel of his hand as a sign of having forgotten something, "I can't travel anywhere wearing this." He smiled and pointed at his baboon pelt.

Kagome waited in unease for his next words.

"I simply must leave it behind…in my castle." He finished, grinning despicably as he watched Kagome's expression turn to a frustrated one.

"But that's miles away!" she practically wailed. Naraku smiled.

"I know."

"Can't you just disappear like you usually do with the miasma and all that?"

"Where's the fun in that? Besides, I save that for very tense situations." He said with a grin.

Kagome grabbed at her hair in desperation. Naraku was being infuriatingly unreasonable. Why had she agreed to go along with this in the first place? Untangling her hands from her hair she took a deep breath and began to consider her options. She could let Naraku go to his castle and wait for him at the well for him to return but she wasn't sure what other nasty surprise he would cook up. And anyway, he was refusing to transport himself there and back with his miasma so that only left one thing…

"Why don't you all accompany me to my castle instead?" He asked in what would have been a casual tone if it hadn't been for the obvious intention he'd had from the start of dragging them all the way to his home.

"What?" Inuyasha cried.

Naraku turned to him. "Is there a problem?" he asked with mock innocence. Inuyasha flushed with anger and he stood directly in front of Naraku, shaking a fist in his face.

"Yeah there's a friggin' problem! It's boiling, I'm mad and you wanna drag us to your stupid castle so you can friggin' change clothes?"

Naraku blinked at him. "Yes."

"GAH!" Inuyasha cried. He pointed a clawed finger at the dark haired half demon. "WELL LEMME TELL YOU SOMETHING! IT…AIN'T…GONNA…HAPPEN!"

OooOooOooOoo

Moments later the whole travelling party was traipsing in Naraku's wake. Naraku was chuckling evilly to himself as sounds of Inuyasha's grumblings met his ears.

The inu-tachi trudged on until the huge, dark roofs of Naraku's castle could be seen looming ominously closer through the trees. The blue skies merged into the purple clouds of miasma that hung over the home of the dark haired half demon. As they got nearer, Inuyasha made a mental note to remember the location of the castle. Not that it was hard to find, the stink of the poisonous clouds was strong enough.

They reached the entrance of the castle and were all surprised to find the lack of Naraku's barriers around it, letting them pass through easily. Arriving at the large main screens, Inuyasha had to ball his hands into fists to stop himself from grabbing the Tessaiga and destroy the whole place with a good, strong wind scar.

Naraku stopped and turned to face them and smiled. "Wait here a moment and I'll be right back."

The inu-tachi stayed huddled together. The air around them was hardly even breathable and the atmosphere made them all feel very uneasy. Naraku must have felt very at home here.

After a few moments of waiting, Naraku emerged from his home wearing his traditional hakama and pulling a very grumpy Kagura along with him. Kagome felt confused.

Ignoring the wind demoness' non-flattering words as she was pulled along against her will, Naraku grinned.

"Oh, I hope you won't object to me bringing Kagura along. I want to spend time with my family while I'm there seeing 'rolliecoasters'." He said.

Kagome felt like crying. "Family?" she asked weakly. Naraku nodded. Miroku piped up.

"But what of Hakudoushi and Kanna?"

Naraku looked at the monk with raised eyebrows. "I can't leave feudal Japan without evil now, can I?"

"And Kohaku?" asked Sango suddenly. Naraku grinned at her. "Someone will need to clean up the mess."

Sango opened her mouth to retort but Naraku interrupted by saying loudly, "Well, lets go now, shall we?"

Inuyasha growled in his throat and reached for his sword but Kagome was already starting to lead them back to the well. Naraku and Kagura followed behind the group and the wind sorceress threw her creator a very dirty look saying,

"You're a bastard."

Naraku chuckled. "I am, aren't I?"

OooOooOooOoo

"Inuyashaaaa, we've passed this rock three times already! Admit it! We are lost!" wailed Kagome. Inuyasha stopped sniffing the air to argue with her.

"Well if you hadn't taken a wrong turn I wouldn't be goin' round in circles!"

"How was I supposed to know it wasn't that way? This forest is too thick and I can't even remember the way back to the well!"

"Just shut up and let me find the scent!" snarled Inuyasha and he lifted his nose to sniff the air.

"Inuyasha!" shouted Kagome.

"What?" Inuyasha yelled back.

"Don't tell me to shut up!"

"Fine then! Can you close yer damn mouth instead?"

As the two of them continued to argue, Miroku sat down upon the rock they had passed on three occasions and took off his sandals to rub his sore feet. The sun was still high above them and the air around the humid forest was suffocating. Naraku seemed to be enjoying himself though as he witnessed the discord he had purposely caused between them. Beside him, Kagura fanned herself with her own fan as the heat got too much for her.

Just as Kagome was going to sit Inuyasha, she was distracted by a strong whirlwind tearing through the trees. Suddenly her hands were swept up by the handsome leader of the wolf tribe, Kouga.

"Kagome!" he exclaimed happily, "It has been so long since I stared into my woman's beautiful eyes."

Inuyasha put himself between them and growled at the wolf demon. "Back off scumbag!"

Kouga scowled at him. Kagome gave a nervous laugh and tried to distract his attention away from Inuyasha before some serious harm was done.

"Uh, Kouga…?"

Kouga's eyes immediately locked on to hers. "Yes, Kagome?"

Inuyasha growled. Kagome ignored him and continued. "Well, we're kind of lost-"

Kouga laughed out loud in Inuyasha's face. "No doubt dog breath got himself all mixed up again, it was bad enough not knowing the difference between a beautiful girl and a dead priestess but getting lost in forests as well?" he sneered.

Inuyasha glared at him angrily. Kagome placed a hand on his shoulder to try and calm him. She noticed Naraku was having a good laugh about this.

"Uh, yeah…" She said, "Anyway, I just needed to know if you passed a well on your way here." She asked, looking at the wolf prince expectantly. She could see Kouga think about it as he furrowed his brow. He brightened up and shoved Inuyasha out from between them so he could catch Kagome's hands in his. Inuyasha landed on the ground upon his backside.

"As a matter of fact, I did pass a well. I'll get you out of here." He said, giving Kagome a cocky grin. Kagome gave him a nervous smile and glanced over at Inuyasha anxiously as he got to his feet and began growling.

Before Inuyasha could say anything, Sango cut in, "Wow Kouga that's a great idea, could you please take us there?"

Kouga grinned, nodded and began to lead the way leaving Inuyasha standing there, causing the hanyou's anger to boil further.

OooOooOooOoo

As they arrived at the well, Kagome thanked Kouga profusely (and quietly since Inuyasha was nearby) and invited him to go with them to see a rollercoaster. Kouga obviously hadn't the faintest idea what she was talking about but felt touched that she had included him and so he accepted, much to Inuyasha's disdain. Kagome walked towards the old wooden well and peered into it, sighing.

Just then, a sinister breeze began to blow, rustling the leaves on the trees and the blades of grass. Kagome shivered involuntarily. Inuyasha turned to Kagura who was standing behind him.

"Could you knock that out!" he barked. Kagura stared at him.

"Knock what out?" she asked. Inuyasha snarled. "The wind! It's annoying me!"

Kagura looked him up and down coldly before answering. "It's not me."

"Oh yeah then who is-" began Inuyasha but he stopped to sniff at the air. A low growl rumbled from his throat.

Out from the trees across the clearing where the well was situated, stepped Sesshoumaru, his cold amber eyes fixated on the figure of Naraku. He strode past the well and stopped but a few metres from where they were all standing, slowly drawing out his Toukijin.

"Naraku…" he said in his cool, monotone, "Prepare for your demise."

Naraku sighed loudly and threw up his hands. "Can't an evil guy get a day off around here? Everyday it's 'you coward' or 'I'll kill you' or 'I'll have my revenge' or 'don't wear that thing Naraku because it clashes with your eye color'! Well sorry but I also have things to do!"

Sesshoumaru (along with everyone else) raised an eyebrow at Naraku's strange behaviour. He raised the tip of his sword and pointed it at the evil hanyou.

"Now that you have fully expressed yourself…Die." He said and with three swift strides he was standing right in front of Naraku, the only thing putting any distance between them was Toukijin. However, Naraku held up a hand.

"Sorry, no can do. I'm taking the day off to see 'rolliecoastas'." Said Naraku with a grin. Sesshoumaru arched an elegant eyebrow. He stared at Naraku for a long time and seeing as the black haired demon was in no…right state of mind…to fight, he slipped the Toukijin back into his obi. He 'hmph'ed and turned around to leave when Naraku spoke.

"Hey, don't you want to see a 'rolliecoasta'?"

Inuyasha could have strangled the guy for making such an invitation to the brother whose guts he hated. It was a real shame Naraku was out of his reach.

Sesshoumaru looked back at him and glared at him from the corner of his eye. "No."

He continued to walk away when he distinctly heard Inuyasha snigger. He paused in his steps and without turning around he spoke with a dangerous calm to his voice.

"Do you find something amusing, half breed?"

Inuyasha ignored the warning tone in his brother's voice as he answered. "Damn right I do."

Sesshoumaru turned fully to glare at his brother. "Would you care to enlighten me?" he asked, the danger in his cool voice still clear.

"You don't wanna see a rollercoaster cos yer afraid of modern stuff like that." Sneered Inuyasha. Sesshoumaru's glare became icier. He began to walk towards the hanyou slowly.

Naraku resisted the urge to rub his hands with glee. It was going to be a good show and his newly formulated plan was only going to make it better.

Sesshoumaru was now a mere few inches from Inuyasha. "Oh?"

Inuyasha challenged his gaze. "I was right wasn't I?" he smirked, failing to see Sesshoumaru's eyes flash red. But Inuyasha never got an answer because Naraku had crept nearer, unnoticed by either of them and grabbed the Toukijin from Sesshoumaru's obi, ducking as the dog demon took a swipe at him with his claws.

"Yoink!" Naraku shouted gleefully, and ran towards the well to thrust the sword in a surprised Kagome's hands. Before anyone could do or say anything, Naraku shoved the young miko over the wooden edge and in she fell, immediately disappearing into the bluish light. Naraku began to roar loudly with laughter, failing to notice the approach of a very enraged demon lord until a clawed hand held him by the neck.

"You…will pay." Hissed Sesshoumaru. Instead of begging for mercy Naraku grinned at him. He pulled out a sparkling shard of the Shikon jewel and held it up for Sesshoumaru to see.

"The only way to get your precious sword back is with this," he said twisting the shard around so that it caught the sunlight, "All you need to do is go down there." He jerked his head in the direction of the well behind him and grinned at Sesshoumaru again.

Sesshoumaru wanted to break this guy's neck, but he also wanted Toukijin back because it was worth a lot more than Naraku. His thoughts then turned to Rin. Jaken and Ah-Un would be there to ensure her safety so he needn't worry about that if he were to be away for long. He loosened his grip and let Naraku down. He held out a hand for the shard.

"Give it to me."

Naraku grinned and dropped it into his waiting palm. Sesshoumaru brushed past him and gracefully leapt into the well and was consumed by the same bluish light. Naraku chuckled evilly to himself. With Sesshoumaru in the modern era, chaos was sure to ensue.

Inuyasha's jaw almost hit the ground. Sesshoumaru was now in the modern age and Kagome had his sword. Inuyasha gasped. Kagome! Without him around to control Sesshoumaru Kagome was in danger!

Unfortunately, Kouga was thinking the same thing and both of them stomped towards the well at the same time, Kouga grabbing a shard that Naraku held out for him along the way. He and Inuyasha both tried to scramble over the walls of the well and each of them tried to be the one to get in first, arguing and shoving around before they finally lost balance and toppled in.

Naraku was positively rolling around in the grass with laughter, much to Kagura's disgust, expressing it by rolling her eyes and tutting. Miroku and Sango exchanged anxious glances and Shippou asked Kirara if Naraku had indeed gone nuts. The small feline just mewed.

Ayame bursting out from a clump of bushes proved to be a distraction to them all. She panted heavily and snarled as she tried to catch her breath.

"Where is that Kouga?" She hissed, her shoulders heaving up and down. Sango gulped, not sure whether she should answer.

"How dare he escape from me! He promised to marry me and now he's chasing some human bitch!" She shrieked, stomping towards the little group.

"Now tell me…Where is Kouga!" She snarled, her hands balled up into fists. She saw Naraku sitting in the grass. Naraku grinned at her and nodded towards the well, holding up a shard of the Shikon jewel. Ayame understood what this meant immediately and drew herself up to her full height.

"Right!" she said determinedly, stomping to the well and snatching the shard from Naraku's fingers, and literally threw herself down the wooden structure. Miroku shook his head and sighed heavily, only just realizing what was yet to come; utter chaos in the modern era.

He received the shard from Naraku gratefully, as did Sango and together they peered into the dark well. Miroku held on to Shippou, while Sango scooped Kirara into her arms. Just as they were about to leap in, Miroku brushed his right hand over Sango's behind ever so slightly and when they finally went through the bluish light, a slap could be heard ringing out of the well, giving Naraku more cause to chuckle.

Naraku's chuckles eventually died down and Kagura stared at him pointedly. He caught her looking at him.

"What?"

Kagura rolled her eyes and then jerked a thumb at the well. "Aren't we going already?"

Naraku smirked as he pulled out another shard for Kagura to use. He offered it to her but just as she was about to take it, he pulled it out of her reach.

"Don't let me keep you from your precious Sesshoumaru–sama." He said, watching her expression with pleasure as she blanched and spluttered.

"I don't- I mean, there is nothing between me and-that's absolutely ridiculous! I hate you!" she finished angrily, snatching the shard from Naraku's outstretched arm. She neared the well and threw some more insults over her shoulder before jumping in.

Naraku was left by himself, laughing at Kagura's expense. She could not have been more obvious of her relationship with the demon lord, and it was so fun to play with. Naraku wiped a tear from his eye. Today had been a good mischief filled day, he almost couldn't wait to get to the other side of the well and enjoy himself even more.

As he approached the well, a breeze began to play with his long, black hair. He looked around and saw nothing but he knew that he wasn't alone. He took yet another shard from the folds of his hakama and proceeded to make a show of placing it on one of the wooden walls of the well. He cleared his throat.

"It seems everyone has left for the modern era." He said loudly. "I think I'll just leave this shard right here on the well just in case anyone wants to join us."

And with that he was gone, swallowed up by the bluish light.

The cool afternoon breeze continued to blow, and an eerie white serpent like creature floated around the clearing as though checking the area to see if it was clear. Kikyo slowly floated out from behind the trees and looked around. She drifted towards the well, surrounded by her soul stealers, and she picked up the shard that Naraku had purposefully left for her. She wasn't sure what exactly he was up to but one thought was clear in her mind.

"…Inuyasha…"

OooOooOooOoo
