Hey, Brat here! YAY! I got reviews! *runs around happily, showering gold coins on all the reviewers.* I got five, so I'm on the second chappie of Snow Ball Fights and Snow Angels! I expect more reviews in the future though! *tosses a snowball up and down in her hand* Or one of these*holds it up* will have your name on it! Anyways, on with the disclaimer!
Disclaimer: *yells at lawyers* Back off! I am NOT going to admit I don't own Inuyasha! *watches as they start to climb up the snow bank she's standing on top of* I warn you! I'm armed! *holds up one of the snowballs meant for reviewers* *one of the little bloodsuckers looks up at her* Lawyer: You just did. *Brat's eyes widen* When? Lawyer: When you said that you were NOT going to admit that you don't own Inuyasha. *she glares at the lawyer, sending him falling back down the hill unconscious* Dang it! You won this round, but next time you won't be so lucky! *lawyers slide back down the hill* Fine then. I don't own Inuyasha. *sulks* But one day I will have enough power to a) buy Inu and b) destroy all the lawyers that come to bug me. HAHAHAHA!!!!!
Cat Silver: Thanks for the ideas! I'll see if I can fit them into the story! Ummmm....I seem to have a lot of snow over here, so here's a snow cone! You can add your favorite flavor! *Brat licks rainbow colored snow cone* AHHH!!!! Brain freeze!!!!
unknowncritic: Here's a snow cone for you too! *Kikyo shows up* What the **** are you doing here?! Kikyo: Give me a snow cone or I'll kill you and all your friends!!!! Brat: *smirks as great idea comes into her head* Okay. *hands the Kikyo witch a 'yellow' snow cone* I've even put the flavor in it for you! *watches as Kikyo skips off eating the snow cone* MUAHAHAHA! *to readers* Can you guess what flavor it was? *doubles over laughing*
DevilWench: Don't worry, I'll continue writing! *Erica shows up* Erica: With my help! She wouldn't have got the first chapter up if it wasn't for me!
SUGAR HIGH GIRL: Sure, I'll write more! Oh, and about those other stories that you're talking about, I'll ask my friends to update theirs. D.g. isn't feeling very happy though. Her first story is a bust! D.g.: Hey!!! Brat: Sorry D.g., but it's the truth! YOU HAVE NO REVIEWS! D.g.: So? Brat: Argh! I give up on that nut case of a friend!
Neostrawberriesweet: WOW! You have a really long name! And you think it's cute? Thanks! *gives 'Neo' a snow cone* Enjoy!
Snow Ball Fights and Snow Angels
Chapter 2: How can 7 People Fit in One SUV?!
Leaving Kagome to her packing, Inuyasha made his way back to the well. It had just stopped snowing a minute ago, but the dark clouds overhead promised that more would be on its way.
"Inuyasha, wait for me!" cried Kagome as she tried to run after him, dragging the largest, heaviest looking bag he had ever seen after her. His eyes widened slightly. How she could even move the bag was a mystery to him!
"What the hell is in this thing?!" he asked, grunting slightly as he picked it up. It was heavy, even for him!
"That's all the stuff we're going to need at the ski resort," she said matter-of-factly. "You can just leave it here, near the stairs."
"Do you mean that I'm going to have to lug this thing up and down those fricken stairs?!!!" he yelled.
"Only one time each," said Kagome, as she looked him straight in the eyes, "Anyways, it shouldn't be too hard for a strong half-demon like you, Inuyasha," she praised. Hook, line and sinker! She thought as she saw him swell up with pride. The best way to convince a man to do something is to go straight for the ego, it never fails! (A/N: Sorry to all you guys out there, but it's the truth. Admit it!)
"Feh, whatever wench," he growled, but there was a definite note of pride in his voice as he dropped the monster bag near the stairs, and then headed off toward the well, Kagome following.
"I can't wait to tell the others about the trip! I even have some winter clothes that fit them perfectly!" she said in a happy voice.
"How the hell did you get them clothes? You just called your mother a while ago about getting us outfits!" he said in surprise.
"Somehow, she already knew that we were going to go on a ski trip, so she bought them beforehand."
"Kagome?"
"Yeah?"
"Your mother's weird."
"I know."
They were silent for a while as they traveled back to the feudal era, heading toward Keade's village. As they neared the small settlement, a familiar blur had launched itself into Kagome.
"Kagome!" squealed Shippo. "You're back! YAY!!!" Soon after he had made this statement, a certain lecherous monk and demon exterminator had showed up.
"Ah! Lady Kagome, glad to have you back," said Miroku, sidling over to her. Kagome warily inched away from him, being used to his perverted antics.
"Hi Kagome! Thank Kami you're back! That pervert over there is being even more lecherous than usual!" said Sango in relief. Obviously, she had had a hard time with him while Kagome was gone.
Grinning in excitement, Kagome put Shippo down and walked over to her friends. "Guess what?" she asked in a sing-song voice.
"What?" was the sound heard from the three. (A/N: Isn't it funny when everybody says the same thing at the exact same time?)
"We're all going to go on a winter vacation! I've already made the arrangements!" she said happily. In fact, she looked so happy, that Miroku decided to share in her happiness in ways that only he can do.
"HENTAI!!!!"
Smack! And down he went with a red mark on his face and little swirly eyes.
Kagome angrily stormed off, leaving Inuyasha to drag along the unconscious Miroku. Sango ran to catch up with her friend, and Shippo decided to hitch a ride on Inuyasha's shoulder. He was a bit scared of Kagome right now, having seen her dramatic mood change.
**********************************************************************
Thirty Minutes Later
After Kagome had calmed down, she had been stable enough to inform Kaede of where they were all going. Kaede had wished them well on their trip. After that, Kagome had jumped through the well, along with Inuyasha, Sango, Shippo, and Kirara (or is it Kilala????) with the unconscious houshi on her back. Walking down the stairs, they got to the bottom with only a little incident. Inuyasha had slipped on one of the more icy steps, and being overbalanced by the 'monster' bag, had tumbled all the way to the bottom. Luckily, nothing in the bag had been damaged, and Inuyasha was fine, except for a few bruises and cuts. (A/N: Don't hurt me! I thought it would add to the comedy if he fell! If you have anyone to blame, then blame D.g.! It's her fault! D.g.: No it isn't!!!!! Brat: *in a Sesshoumaru voice* You are a worthless author with no reviews, EVERYTHING is your fault! D.g.: WAAAA!!! *runs off into the distance shouting something about revenge and death* Brat: That was easy.)
So, here they were, waiting in the chilly air for Mrs.Higurashi to show up with Kagome's little brother, Souta, who was coming with them. Kagome had just turned sixteen and had her driver's license, so she would be doing all the driving in the rental car her mom had mysteriously got beforehand. (A/N: Freaky! How does she do that?!)
As the minutes went by, everyone grew more and more anxious. Suddenly, the sound of a car coming was heard, and they all watched as Mrs.Higurashi drove up in an SUV (your choice, just make it a big one!) with Souta in the passenger's seat. Getting out, she smiled cheerily at them all (I should have said eerily), and handed the car keys over to Kagome.
"Now don't get into any trouble while you're there, okay?" Mrs.Higurashi asked.
"I won't," replied Kagome.
As she walked up the steps, she waved back to them and said, "Have fun at the resort!"
"Bye!" Kagome called, before turning to look at the car she would be driving.
"Inuyasha, could you put that bag in the farthest seat to the back? Thanks," she said, getting into the driver's seat and acquainting herself with all the controls. Shippo came crawled into her lap and started asking questions like, "What does this button do?" and then followed the question up with an action to determine what the button did.
"ARGGGHHHHH!!!!" said an upset hanyou as he covered his ears when Shippo had turned on the radio. "What the f*** is that horrid noise?!"
Quickly, Kagome turned off the radio and proceeded to scold Inuyasha for hitting Shippo when the music had come on.
Souta looked at his big sister, distressed, "Does this happen all the time?"
Laughing at his question, she said, "Yes."
Finally, after what seemed like an eternity, she finally managed to get them all into the car. (A/N: Don't ask me how she did it! Even I don't know!) Kagome sat next to Inuyasha; Miroku sat next to Sango and Souta; and Shippo and Kirara sat on whoever they chose to sit on. The bag took up the whole last seat.
"Off we go!!!" Kagome yells as they finally leave.
"Yay." Said everyone else in a monotone voice. This was going to be a LONG trip!
****************************************************************
I know, I know, short chappies make for unhappy reviewers....*sigh* I plan to make the next one longer. It's hard to, ya know! I have to think of these chapters as I'm writing! But hey! I'm happy! I have no school for the next week, plenty of snow to make snow cones with, and I don't have anything to do except to write this fic and watch Cartoon Network's reruns of Inuyasha at 10:00! The bad part is that I'm stuck with D.g. and Erica! *remembers the incident with D.g.* Okay, maybe only Erica! Well, you know what all authors want? Reviews! So do it! Or else in the next chapter I'm gonna attack you all with snowballs! I've managed to make about 200 of them! So R&R! Unless you want a snowball in your face....*grins evilly* I already managed to take down a couple of the lawyers, so who's next????? *cackles* It's like Elf Bowling 3! Shooting down the lawyers like you can shoot down the penguins! Head shots are worth ten points!!!!!!! HAHAHA!!! *lawyers look frightened* I'm gonna get you, ya little freaks!! KYAAAAA!!!!!!! *chases after the lawyers* Get back here you cowards! *K.O.s one of them* MUAHAHAH!!!!
