Jade emerges from a Hastings store. She brought herself, one of her favorite animes, CDs of Metallica, Evanescence, Killswitch Engage, Cradle of Filth and Three days Grace. Naraku is waiting for her, leaning casually against her front fender.
"Nice ride. Vintage fenders." Complaint Naraku.
"Are you following me?" Asked Jade.
"I was in the laundromat. I saw your car. I came over to say hi." Answered Naraku.
"Hi." Replied Jade as she moves to open the door, but he slides over and blocks her way.
"Not a big talker, huh?" Asked Naraku.
"Depends on the topic. My fenders don't really whip me into a verbal frenzy." Answered Jade as Naraku seems genuinely intrigued by her resistance.
"You're not afraid of me, are you?" Asked Naraku.
"Afraid of you? Why would I be afraid of you?" Replied Jade.
"Well, most people are." Answered Naraku.
"Well, I'm not." Replied Jade.
"Well, maybe you're not afraid of me. But I'm sure you've thought about me naked, huh?" Replied Naraku as he gives the girl a wink.
"Am I that transparent? I want you, I need you, Oh baby, oh baby." Replied Jade as she opens the door and forces him out of the way. She starts to pull out and is blocked by Bankotsu's sports car, which pulls up perpendicular to her rear and parks as Bankotsu emerges and heads to the store.
"What is it? Asshole day? Hey! Do you mind?" Asked Jade.
"Not at all." Answered Bankotsu as he continues on into the store. Jade stares at him in disbelief and then backs up fast. Her vintage fenders crash into the door of Joey's precious ego-mobile. While Naraku watches with a delighted grin and chuckles a bit while Bankotsu races back to his car.
"You bitch! Screamed Bankotsu as Jade watches with an innocent look of surprise.
"Whoops." Replied Jade.
At Jade's home Markus talks to his elder daughter while Jade was reading her book and sits on the couch.
"My insurance does not cover PMS." Replied Markus.
"Well, then tell them I had a seizure." Replied Jade.
"Is this about Himiko University? Are you punishing me because I want you to stay close to home?" Asked Markus.
"Aren't you punishing me because mom left?" Answered Jade.
"You think you could leave her out of this?" Argued Markus.
"Then stop making my decisions for me." Argued Jade as she closes her book and gets off the couch.
"I'm your father. That's my right." Replied Markus.
"So what I want doesn't matter?" Asked Jade.
"You're nineteen. You don't know what you want. And you won't know what you want until you're forty-five. And if you get it, you'll be too old to use it." answered Markus.
"I want to go to Himiko University! I want you to trust me to make my own choices. And I want you to stop trying to control my life just because you can't control yours!" Argued Jade.
"Oh yeah? Well you know what I want!" Argued Markus as his phone rang.
"We'll continue this later." Replied Markus.
"Can't wait." Replied Jade she heads out of the living room but blocked by her younger sister.
"Did you just maim Bankotsu's car?" Asked Kagome.
"Yeah. Looks like you're gonna have to take the bus." Answered Jade.
"Has the fact that you're completely psycho managed to escape your attention?"
Asked Kagome as Jade walks away and heads upstairs to her bedroom.
Naraku shuts his locker revealing to Bankotsu who is really pissed off.
"When I shell out fifty, I expect results." Replied Bankotsu.
"Yeah, I'm on it." Replied Naraku.
"Watching the bitch violate my car doesn't count as a date. If you don't get any, I don't get any. Let's go get some." Replied Bankotsu as he starts to walk off.
"I just upped my price." Replied Naraku as Bankotsu turns around.
"What?" Replied Bankotsu
"A hundred bucks a date. In advance." Replied Naraku.
"Forget it." Replied Bankotsu.
"Forget her sister, then." Replied Naraku as Bankotsu thinks for a frustrated moment, then takes another fifty out of his wallet.
"You better hope you're as smooth as you think you are, Onigumo." Replied Bankotsu as Naraku takes the money with a smile.
Miroku and Inuyasha enter the shopclass. Koga brushes by them.
"Go." Replied Inuyasha.
"No, you go." Replied Miroku.
"I went before." Replied Inuyasha as he makes his way to where Naraku is working at the buffer.
"We know what you're trying to do, with Jade Higurashi." Replied Inuyasha.
"Is that right? And what do you plan to do about it?" Asked Naraku.
"Help you out." Answered Inuyasha.
"Why's that?" Asked Naraku.
"The situation is, my man Inuyasha here has a major jones for Kagome Higurashi." Answered Miroku.
"What is it with this chick? She have beer flavored nipples?" Asked Naraku.
"Hey!" Replied Inuyasha.
"I think I speak correctly when I say that Cameron's love is pure. Purer than say Bankotsu Kuramusa." Answered Miroku.
"Look. I'm in on this for the cash. Bankotsu can plow whoever he wants." Replied Naraku.
"Okay. There will be no plowing!" Replied Inuyasha.
"Naraku, uh. Let me explain something to you here. We set this whole thing up so Inuyasha can get the girl. Cameron. Bankotsu's just a pawn." Replied Miroku.
"So you two are gonna help me tame the wild beast?" Asked Naraku.
"We'll do some research. We'll find out what she likes. We are your guys." Answered Miroku.
"And he means that in a strictly non- prison-movie type of way." Added Inuyasha.
"Let's start here. Now, Friday night. Madara Uchiha is having a party. It's the perfect opportunity." Replied Miroku.
"Opportunity for what?" Asked Naraku.
"For you to take out Jade." Answered Miroku.
"I'll think about it." Replied Naraku as he walks away, leaving Miroku and Inuyasha grinning at each other.
"And for a little payback. This is gonna be some party." Replied Miroku as he holds a party invitation. It advertises a "wine and cheese" party. Transition. The words "wine and cheese" were replaced by "free beer". "Don't call" and "just show up" are printed at the bottom next to Madara's address in Crossover city.
"Let's do this." Replied Miroku as they dumped a pile of fliers down the school stairwell. Students hands reach out and grab them as they fall. Meanwhile Bankotsu stands at his open locker with Kagome.
"Okay now, this is important. Which do you like better?" Asked Bankotsu as he holds up two identical glamour model photos. In one, he's wearing a white shirt. In the other, he's in a black shirt.
"Um, I think I like the white shirt better." Answered Kagome as Bankotsu nods thoughtfully.
"Yeah. It's more." Replied Bankotsu.
"Pensive?" Answered Kagome.
"Damn. I was going for thoughtful. So, you going to Madara Uchiha's thing on Friday night?" Asked Bankotsu.
"Yeah. I might." Answered Kagome as Bankotsu gives her his best flirtatious smile
"Good, 'cause, you know, I'm not gonna bother if you won't be there." Replied Bankotsu as the class bell rings.
"See you there." Replied Bankotsu.
"Okay." Replied Kagome.
"Bye." Replied Bankotsu as Kagome walks away. He turns to a mirror hanging in his locker and winks at himself, then unhappily adjusts an out-of-place hair.
Kagome and Inuyasha are on a nice walk together they're were under the bridge.
"So have you heard about Madara Uchiha's party?" Asked Inuyasha.
"Yes. And I really, really, really wanna go, but I can't. Not unless my sister goes." Answered Kagome.
"Yeah I know. I'm workin' on that. But so far she's not goin' for my guy. She's not a...
"KD Lang fan? No. I found a picture of Itachi Uchiha in her drawer once, so I'm pretty sure she's not harboring same-sex tendencies." Replied Kagome.
"Okay. So that's the kind of guy she likes? Pretty guys?" Asked Inuyasha.
"I don't know. All I've ever heard her say is that she'd die before dating a guy that smokes." Answered Kagome.
"Okay. All right. What else?" Asked Inuyasha.
"You're asking me to investigate the inner workings of my sister's twisted mind? I don't think so." Answered Kagome.
"Well nothing else has worked. I mean, we need to go behind enemy lines here." Replied Inuyasha.
Inuyasha follows Kagome to her house and to her sister's bedroom, Kagome rifles through Jade's drawers while Inuyasha watches with notable interest.
"Okay, here we go." Replied Kagome as she names off pertinent discoveries, and hands them to Inuyasha.
"Class schedule, reading list, date book, coffee tickets, um, concert tickets. Ah ha! Black panties!" Replied Kagome as she hands the dog Hanyo a pair of black underwear.
"What does that tell us?" Asked Inuyasha.
"She wants to have sex some day, that's what." Answered Kagome.
"She could just like the color." Replied Inuyasha.
"You don't buy black lingerie unless you want someone to see it." Replied Kagome.
"Oh. So, uh, can I see your room?" Asked Inuyasha.
"No. A girl's room is very personal." Answered Kagome.
"Oh." Replied Inuyasha as he and Kagome exits out of Jade's bedroom.
