"Get the party started on a Saturday night,

Everybody's waitin' for me to arrive,

Sendin' out the message to all of my friends,

We'll be looking flashy in my Mersadies Bens.

I got lotsa' style check my gold dimond rings,

I could go for miles, if you know what I mean!"

-Pink

I don't own Inu Yasha or Kagome, but I made up all of Kagome's future friends.



Chapter 1: Middleschool Friends and the Invite Sends



"So what are you going to do?" Samui asked Kagome.

"What am I going to do about what?" she asked.

"Duh! Halloween is this weekend! What are you going to do?" she said.

"I don't know," Kagome looked down at her cheesy chips, for it was lunchtime and she and her friends were sitting outside. "I'll probably be answering the door all night, unless mom makes me take Sota around."

"Well I don't know about you, but I'm going out for candy!" Samui said.

"Me, too!" A tall friendly looking boy stood over the group of girls and said, "I'm gonna break the record this year!"

"What's the record, Tanoshii?" Pati asked.

He got out the book of records that he carries around like a bible and stuck his nose in it. 3,064 houses. This year, I'm going to 3,070 houses. I even mapped out Tokyo for my quest of glory."

"Reach for the stars, Tani." Karai said nonchalantly.

Meanwhile on the other side of the schoolyard, the rich popular kids dined on their specially prepared lunches since school food wasn't good enough for them. Of the perfects came the most popular, most beautiful and richest of them all, Cindy Hoffman, an American who moved to Japan when she was five. Her lovely blond hair shimmered in the sunlight as she handed out notes to almost all of the kids in the courtyard. Pati looked around and said, "Has anyone noticed that everyone here has gotten one except for us?"

"Well, maybe she forgot to give us one?" Kagome shrugged.

"Or maybe she's just a stuck up snob!" Karai said.

"Well," Tanoshii said in between bites of his peanut butter sandwich, "We could go to my house and watch the scary movie specials that night."

Cindy was in the middle of telling a joke when a girl with short black hair came up to her. Cindy looked at her like she smelled like old cheese, "Can I help you?" she asked.

"Cindy Hoffman, you're having a party this Halloween, right?" the girl asked.

"As a matter of fact I am, why? Would you like to get a job working at the punchbowel?" Cindy asked.

"No," the girl said like the unintentional insult didn't phase her. "I wanted to ask you a favor."

Cindy took a closer look at her. "I think I know you, you're Kuso Ane. Rumor has it that you've been coning weaker kids into huge parties and you've recently gotten busted for one. Sorry, I'm not one of you're marks. When I have a party, they get down and dirty on purpose."

"I need your help getting revenge on someone." Pati said. "Higurushi Kagome, she is the one who messed up my plans and I want to make her pay."

Cindy stared at her like she was insane. "Are you on some kind of medication?"

"Look, I'll do whatever you want, I'll even spot the money for you're entertainment-"

Cindy laughed elegantly like those rich people do, "YOU pay for MY entertainment? I'm only getting the best of the best to come play at my party, I don't need any ten cent rockbands. I'll help you in your little plot of revenge, but if I find an actual need for you in the future, you will have to agree."

"Anything, I just want to make her suffer!" Ane said.

Samui opened her tuperware box, "Aw! Carrots again!"

"Well if you packed your own lunch you wouldn't have that problem." Karai said.

Karai smacked her lightly on the shoulder and said, "Look!" Everyone looked up to see Cindy, her sister Monica, and her best friend Kion followed by about three other popular kids coming over.

Cindy stopped infront of the table and said, "Higurushi Kagome?"

"That's her!" Karai pointed at Kagome.

"I hope you're coming to my party this weekend." She said with a smile.

"Party?" Kagome said.

"You DID get an invitation, didn't you?" she asked.

"No, none of us did." Pati said.

"Oh, that's probably why." Kion said snobbishly.

Cindy glared at her then smiled at Kagome and handed her a white envelope decorated with red prints. She tore off the top and pulled out a black card with words written in red gel pen. She didn't even have to start reading it because Cindy told her what it said. "I'm having a Halloween house party tomorrow. And you're my guest of honor!" Samui, Pati, and Karai gasped. Tanoshii raised an eyebrow at them.

"Um, thank you!" Kagome said looking at the letter.

"Bring a Halloween costume and if you're bringing a date, try to dress like a couple, you know what I mean? Romeo and Juliet, Barbie and Ken, A king and queen, a witch and warlock...."

"Dumb and Dumber," Kion said and she and Monica broke out into a fit of laughter. Cindy glared at them and said, "GROW UP!"

Then she turned back to Kagome, "Don't mind them, they like to tease."

Kagome nodded then asked, "Can my friends come?"

"Hmm?" Cindy said looking at the other kids at the picnic table like she was just realizing they were there. "Sure, it's a house party after all, but they must wear costumes, too."

She walked off trading conversation with the other popular kids. "Wow! Kagome, you've been invited to an adult party!" Pati said.

"It's not an adult party, Cindy's our age." Kagome said.

"But Kagome, everything there is fancy! Haven't you ever seen the inside of her mansion?!" Samui asked.

"Uh, no?" Kagome said.

"Well I haven't either but I've heard stories!" Samui said.

Tanoshii rolled his eyes, "You girls are buggin'."

"Please come with us, Tani!" Pati pleaded. All of the girls looked at him with puppy dog eyes. He sweatdropped then said. I'll try to come over after I break the trick or treat record."

"Make sure you do!" Samui shouted after him. He went to go throw his trash away.

"He's so sweet," Karai said. "Why can't all boys be as sweet as him."

The thought of Inu Yasha passed through Kagome's mind. 'Oh yeah! I'm supposed to go back there tomorrow!'
