Disclaimer: We have gone through this! Remember: it's my birthday, so you can steal Inu Yasha and Ranma for me! Note, the characters: Tatsu, Sakuko, Lovisha, AAliyah, and Arimi are not my creations. They are some of my lovely reviewers!
Camp of the Chaotics
Chapter 21
Author's Note:
Ah… The joy of writing! I love it! I was going to update chapter 20 today, but it's so short and boring that I decided not to. You can thank me later, hehe! Thank you Tatsu, Snowgirl, LovelyLovisha, AAliyah, and Katie for letting me use their characters! Ryoko, Haya, and Sumi are MY characters, so please don't steal! Enjoy!

Glossary:
(I realized my resolution was failing so I'm doing this again.)
Bokumetsu suru: "Exterminator"
Doomo arigato gozimasu: "Thank you very much!"
Gomen nasai: "I'm sorry"
Iie: "No"
Josei: "Lady"
Nani: "What?"
Sugio: "Wow!"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Sugio!" Kagome gasped as she stepped into the fairly large Japanese fair. "It's so pretty!"
Sango nodded. "Look at those lanterns! They are just too cute!"
"You guys brought money too, right?" Akane asked.
"Yeah, why?"
"Because! Look at those trinkets!" She pointed to a bunch of little stalls, full of little necklaces and baubles.
"YAY!" Kagome squealed as she and her two best friends ran over to it.
While paying for their goods, Akane realized that she was short of money. Kagome and Sango guiltily turned their purses upside-down. Nothing fell out.
"Aw! I really wanted that necklace, too!" Akane whined.
Miroku nudged Ranma, smirking. "This is your chance, boy! Go get her!"
Ranma gulped, but put on his most charming grin. Walking over to Akane, he bent over to the clerk and paid for the necklace. Taking it gently, he bowed and presented it to Akane.
Akane flushed a bright pink. "Doomo arigato gozimasu!"
"No problem, Akane!" He walked off smiling cheerfully.
Turning the corner, he found Inu Yasha and Miroku, who high-fived him.
"Who da man?" he gloated.
"Oh, shut up!" Inu Yasha snorted, glancing over the corner to see it Kagome needed any 'charming up to'. "HEY! They're gone!" he cried.
"WHAT?" Miroku asked, jumping over and staring at where the girls were.
"Oh well! We can meet up with them later," Ranma said, still egoistically thinking about his success.
"Yeah, well, I guess you're right…" Miroku said, somewhat depressed.
"So, where do we go now?" Ranma asked.
Kaede suddenly popped out of nowhere, making the guys jump. "Why, you roam the fair!"
"O-Kay…." Inu Yasha slowly said.
"Just don't do anything illegal!" she snapped, turning and walking away.
"We can do illegal stuff here?" Miroku asked, suddenly interested.
Inu Yasha hit him on the top of the head. "That's what she says!"
"Oh goody!" Miroku started walking away.
"Wait for us!"
----------------
"OHMYGOD! I HIT IT! I HIT THE BULLSEYE!" Kagome squealed, running in circles, bow in hand.
"Sugio! You're really good, K-chan!" Akane complemented.
Kagome grinned. "Thanks, Akane! I didn't know you could kick that thing so far!"
Akane smiled, then rubbed her foot. "Yeah, but it came with a price!"
Suddenly, the girls smelled a foul stench. "What is that?" Kagome asked, her voice muffled and her right hand over nose and mouth.
Sango came running over, a black mask over the lower part of her face. "Gomen nasai!" she said. "I'm pretty good at aiming, but those packs of poison gas really flew when the wind blew."
"What are you doing?" Kagome asked.
Although they could not see, Kagome and Akane could tell she was grinning with pride. "I'm practicing being a exterminator!"
"Cool! What were you trying to kill, Josei bokumetsu suru?
"A spider!" Sango shivered.
"I wonder where the guys are?" Akane said, looking around.
"Oh!" Kagome teased. "Can't stop thinking about Ranma, Akane?"
Akane blushed. "Iie!"
"If you say so!"
'Where are the guys?'
---------------
Inu Yasha sipped his Sake slowly. "Remind me again, Miroku… Why are we in a tea house?"
"Because, Inu Yasha, we were passing through here!" Miroku stressed.
Ranma looked around at his new surroundings. "Hey, look! It's Kuno! And Mousse, Naraku, Ryoga, and Kouga!"
"What?" Inu Yasha asked, choking.
"There they are! Looks like they had the same ideas as us!" Miroku said.
"I wonder how they found Ryoga in time…" Ranma mused.
"Who cares?"
"Oh crap! They've spotted us!"
Indeed the five guys came over and sat down.
"Well, well, well… So the dog-turd is here once more tainting the place…" Kouga hisses.
Inu Yasha glared at him, his violet eyes meeting Kouga's cerulean ones. "I ought to pound you into the grou-"
"Gentlemen!" Miroku said happily. "Let's fight in a civil way! A competition, I say!"
"What kind?" Kuno asked, for once not speaking in a Shakespearean accent.
"An old and honored kind of contest! One of manliness and vigor!"
"Cut to the chase, monk," Naraku hissed.
"Drinking! First one to get drunk loses!"
"What's the prize?" Ryoga asked.
"An ego boost?" Miroku offered.
Kouga grinned, his fangs showing. "And Kagome."
"Nani?" Inu Yasha asked, totally surprised.
"The winner gets to take Kagome out!" Kouga said clearly and loudly.
Another competition about Kagome? The second one! Inu Yasha sighed, having no choice. "Alright, Kouga."
"HEY! Ranma Saotome! I, Mousse, will challenge you for Shampoo!"
"Me too! I'm challenging you for Akane's!"
"I, Tatewaki Kuno, will also challenge you for Akane Tendo's hand!"
Ranma blanched. Three guys where challenging him for a macho chick? Sure, she was cute when she smiled, and really pretty, with a nice figure, and- 'ARRG! That voice was right about the lustful, thing!'
"Okay," was the only answer he could think of.
Naraku looked slowly towards Inu Yasha. "For Kikyo, I will drink against you."
Miroku smiled cheerfully. "I'll drink for whoever you guys don't want!" He waved towards a few geisha, who quickly walked over.
There were eight of them in all, each beautiful in their own way. In their arms, they each carried a black lacquered tray with a pot of Sake on them.
A blonde girl with a wonderful tan sat sown next to Miroku. Her rather revealing kimono showed a lot of leg, much to Miroku's pleasure.
Another geisha, this one with shoulder-length hair black hair, sat next to Mousse. Red highlights in her hair gave her a unique touch.
Next to Kouga sat a young woman with pale blonde, almost a glowing silver color, hair, and honey eyes.
With her brown hair and copper eyes, another geisha made Ryoga blush madly.
To Inu Yasha's surprise, a beautiful young woman with a Latin touch in her sat next to him, dark eyes glowing.
A black-haired, silver-eyed girl sat next to Ranma. To match her eyes, her hair was highlighted in the palest silver.
A dark-haired beauty sat next to Naraku, fluttering her eyelashes.
For Kuno, there was a woman with light, brown hair and green eyes.
"Who are you?" Inu Yasha asked.
"I'm AAliyah," his new partner said quietly.
"I'm Tatsu," said the one next to Kouga.
"I'm Sakuko," the woman next to Mousse said.
"I'm Arimi," said the pretty girl next to Ryoga.
"Lovisha," the blonde next to Miroku said.
"I'm Ryoko," said Ranma's partner.
"Haya," the one next to Naraku whispered.
"And I'm Sumi," said the girl next to Kuno.
"We're the Geisha Sisters of this tea house," they murmured together. "And we are here to serve you."
