Hey, this is the third chapter! Kagome is helping me out with her dialogue, and Rei's helping with hers...I just want to do this on my own! I've said it once, now I'll say it again!!!

PS: Inuyasha_1534, this one's for you! Also, don't forget to review.
(Sesshoumaru) I, Sesshoumaru, have been wondering why you don't want a good first-hand review from me!
(Shina) Because you try to steal my makeup when you do that!
(Inuyasha) I thought I hit him right to hell last time...Feh, he ain't one to quit or die easy!
(Sesshoumaru) *sweatdrop* I, Sesshoumaru will be going now! *disappears*
(Shina & Inuyasha) What's bothering him today...?

A Fun-filled Spring Break
Chapter 3
Recap: Rei somehow got Taro to come to the festival, and I'm not telling it's so cruel! But I wonder how things are going at Kagome's house. Let's check!
"Are you dressed yet?! I ain't waitin' 'till tomorrow to take you with me back to the well!" Shouted Inuyasha impatiently, leaning against the door to Kagome's room.
"I'm still packing for this trip, so could you wait a little longer?"
"Honestly, can ya get any slower?"
"Inuyasha, sometime during the weekend, would you like to come to the Cherry Blossom Festival with me?"
There's gonna be a lot of humans there, I can sense it! "Hey, what makes you think I'd actually do somethin' like-" He paused to think about what he just said. "-Of course I'll come, but truly, its just for you."
"Oh, thank you Inuyasha!"
"Hey, watch where you're openin' that damn door!"
The next day, at Rei's house.
"Taro, wake up. You're shedding on the couch. Again!"
"I can't help it, stupid human!" Taro retorted angrily. "It's like life. It happens, ya can't do a thing 'bout it."
She sighed. "Next time, go sleep in a tree, please!"
"Like I have a choice? It was rainin' last night! Better hair on the couch than a wet cat right now!"
"Well, that's true..."
"Will you please keep it down?!" Shouted Shina. "I'm trying to sleep here." (Note: you don't want to know what I look like in the mornings!)
"I think that she should just stop wearing so much makeup...Unless she's lost to Shinji again." Rei and Taro just chuckled a little, Rei a lot longer than the cat demon did.
"What's this festival thing again? It's pointless to go unless ya talk about it first."
"Ah, mercy be...It's going to be a long day."
Well, this seems interesting so far. I can't wait until the festival chapter!! Anyway, lets just say that I'm jumping to the afternoon at Rei's house, OK?
"Oh, so the Cherry Blossom Festival is the celebration of Spring? I thought it changed in your time!" Remarked a sleepy cat demon, bored because of the lecture he brought on himself. Why can't she just plainly say that it's the blooming of Cherry trees?!
"Earth to Taro, do you understand me?"
"What now Rei?"
"Well, you're going to have to wear a formal kimono, and you'll need to hide your ears and tail when we go. Is that clear?" Rei asked with a 'don't-even-think-about-saying-no-or-else' look.
"I gotcha, don't bother me while I go hunting then!" I finally figured out where that scent was comin' from, and now I wished that I ain't that curious at said time! Taro ran off to the forest in a semi-gold blur.
At Kagome's house, things went a bit differently, with Inuyasha's (sometimes) annoying temper, it could go wrong if Souta came back from my house to hers!
"Feh, why do ya want me ta go with you? It's not like I'm goin' for my own sake." He jumped into a tree outside of Kagome's reach. "Can't ya see I'm holding back 'cause you're in heat...again?! It's natural, but you shouldn't try to force me when I'm like this."
"Oh, I see, but you ate your ramen that I made you very fast. You didn't do that last time, if I do remember."
"There's no good prey around here." Was what Inuyasha uttered fast as he tried to get away.
"Osuwari."
Inuyasha slammed into the ground; some tree branches were under him, because he was high up in that tree. "Damn this necklace!" Was all that he said as he got up, swearing even more in his head. She can't help it, but even tho' I hate this necklace; it prevented me from a huge mistake when we first met. Hey Kagome, I have a little question."
"What's that?" What's with that look in his eyes? I have never seen him look at me like this!
"Will you..."
Oh...this is it? How sweet!
"...take this stupid necklace off?!"
Kagome sweatdropped. I don't believe him! He really has a one-track mind, but he's handsome when he pouts like that... "Sorry, but I'm not going to just yet. Here I thought that you were asking for-"
"Besides, it would have been mate, not marry!" Interrupted Inuyasha hastily.
Kagome sighed with exasperation. "You didn't let me finish what I was going to say. Not all girls are alike, got that? I was saying I thought you were asking me to go to the Cherry Blossom Festival!"
"Feh." Is that why Kagome reacted like that? Full humans are so strange...
"I know where a ramen stand is at the festival."
He jumped up and hid his excitement by not swearing at her for sitting him. "Ramen? Did ya really say ramen? No joke?"
"Yes I did, Inuyasha. So do you want to come?"
"Hell yeah, I do!" Said Inuyasha with a huge grin on his face. "When is it takin' place?"
"It takes place for three nights. This year, it's the 11th, 12th, and 13th of April."
Shina's house, her beautiful bedroom! Right now, she's picking out a kimono when the phone rings.
"Oh, great. I just started looking at things to wear to the festival, and the denwa rings!" Shina sighed, and then picked up the phone. "Moshi-moshi?"
"Yo Shina, this is Rei. I have good news!"
"Oh Rei, what's the matter now?" Shina whined. "I was picking out a kimono for the festival and-"
"Then choose one fast! I don't know how long I can keep Hojo waiting without him finding my books..."
"You're sick! Well, I'll be coming over, just don't let him read those dirty things!"
Rei laughed at that comment. "I'll try, but I can't hold him off forever. I'm sorry to take up you time." Shina was about to hang up when she heard Hojo's voice from the background.
"What are you doing reading stuff like this?!?!" Shina then hung up, laughing until she found a kimono she liked.
After that, she picked up Hojo at Rei's house...Blah blah blah blah...Sorry, I get sidetracked! See the next chapter to see what silly (and new) things await them at the festival!
***********************************************************************
(Shina) Well, that's it for chapter 3. Please tell me what you think!
(Miroku) How did I get here?
(Shina) *sweatdrop* I don't know how you did, but what do you think so far?
(Miroku) It's funny, but what are you planning on doing? Who's that person who looks like me?
(Shina) A...friend of mine, that's who. After all, we have lived near each other for a long time!
(Rei) Hey Shina, who are you talking to?
(Shina) Well, it seems to be your ancestor.
(Taro) CRAP!! Not him again! *runs into Rei's closet and slams the door shut*
(Miroku) He hasn't changed at all...
(Taro) *inside the closet* I heard that!
(Kagome) Well, shouldn't we be preparing for the festival?
(Inuyasha) Feh, I ain't goin' to a festival lookin' like this! *growls at what he's waering*
(Shina) *sweatdrop* Anyway, don't forget to review! I'll see you in chapter 4, Cherry Blossom Festival and suprises!
