I just got back to school this week after being on spring break (Snowboarding up in the mountains and being stuck all day with D.g. and Erica!) and the homework has been tremendous! All my teachers are stuck up on the fact that the S.T.A.R. tests are coming up next month! And for us eighth graders, that means HOMEWORK! *shudders* I've gotten ten pages of homework A DAY! I barely have time to eat! Or sleep! So forgive me if I can't update on weekdays! Oh, and we have a new member in the story. *mutters* Damn stupid reviewers requesting to be in my fic, bah! I can't get rid of them....*cheers up* Oh well! At least I have someone for Sailor Saturn to kill now! *grins evilly* *cackles* Oh, and just a warning: I'M SUGAR HIGH!!! HAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!! AND I HAVE NO SENSE OF SANITY WHATSOEVER NOW! GOODY! *goes back to eating her mondo-sized ice cream cone*
Review Responses:
SenshiofSilence: YAY! NO INDESTRUCTABLE JAKEN PLUSHIE FOR ME! Oh, and just so you know, we all need to get a social life. *sigh* My only friends are D.g. and Erica. They're my cousins. Scary huh? We all live in the same house too. Creepy. It's a long story of how it happened, so I'm not gonna go into any details. Let's just say that I've hated lawyers for a LONG time. They ruined my life by sticking me with these two. *mumbles* Kami save me.
Sailor Saturn: *looks relieved* Oh, so you don't like Hojo. That's good. 'Cause many bad things are gonna happen to him. You're one of them.
Tinuviel: *looks astonished* You actually WANT to be lawyer?! Are you mad?! Okay, getting off THAT subject and onto a new one. No, I haven't read the Silmarillian. I've been hearing some different stuff about it though. Half of the people say that it's really good, and the other half says that it stinks. I decided that I would wait till later to read it. Also, you will have super powers too. And your flying monkey Bob Anolious. I'll mention why next chapter (maybe) you all are taking such an interest in the Inu gang. It'll get hilarious. *gets annoyed at one of the other things that was in the review* How come you have Spring Break right after mine finishes?! It's not fair! *pouts, then goes back to eating her snow cone* Lucky you....
Cat Silver: I'll be using your-er-sayings in the story, along with the minions and nicknames. Also, *glares at Cat* I am gonna include Erica, myself, D.g., and Fred in the story. *glowers* I am repeating myself on this, but WHY exactly did you give D.g. that horrible slug?! Now she's toting it around everywhere. In reality. She now has a digital, made-up pet slug named Fred, and a second slug that's real that she named Fred. I think that her top has finally come unscrewed. SHE KEEPS IT IN HER ROOM FOR GODSAKES! Yeah, that wouldn't be so bad if she didn't share a room with me and Erica. *shudder* It got loose once....
Kimi: Um...*is watching Kimi scream her head off shouting, 'Funny, funny I want more!'* Okay......*is getting freaked out at the hysterics* Here's more?
Meow the chibi neko: Sorry, there are no drains in this fic. *hands Meow an umbrella* You should use this. Just don't use that katana on other readers that are drooling too much. Ya might get them mad at you, and then they'll turn into a giant horde of angry reviewers. Believe me, I've seen it happen!
Inuyashas girlfriend: GHA! ALL RIGHT! YOU CAN BE IN MY FIC! JUST STOP ASKING! From now on in the story, you will be known as Kia and will try to steal Inu from Kagome, but you will fail and all the angry readers will turn into a mob and kill you. Okay? It's the same thing that would happen to Kikyo, so consider yourself lucky! You will be one of the bad guys! HAHA! That's what you get for bugging me! MUAHAHAHA! I AM THE ALL POWERFUL AUTHORESS! FEAR MEH! I HAVE THE POWER! I CAN CONTROL EVERYONE IN MY FIC!! MUAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Snowball Fights and Snow Angels
Chapter 6: Lessons: Snowmen Won't Last Long!
( Thanks to Tinuviel, Cat Silver, and the saiyan! You all rock BIG TIME! I'm gonna combine your ideas to make this chapter! If ya get any good inspirations, please tell me! I know a lot about snow games, but there are probably some out there that I've never heard of! If ya know one, send it in!)
Okay, so when we last left off, the Inu gang had already met the reviewers-turned-characters. They had had lunch, with a couple of surprises, *snicker* and had split up and agreed to meet at the Ski and Snowboard Rental Shop in one hour. Now Kagome and Souta face one of the biggest challenges in their lives: getting the Feudal members of their group into snowsuits. Kami be with them!
************************************************
Souta and Kagome were each in their separate rooms; Kagome was in hers with Sango and Kirara, and Souta was in his with the other males of the group.
"C'mon Inuyasha! Ya have to wear this! You'll freeze if you don't!" said a frustrated Souta as he tried to convince Inuyasha to wear the snowboarder outfit. He had been arguing with him for the past ten minutes, and was starting to get desperate.
"No way am I getting into that outfit," snorted Inuyasha as he stood in his stubborn pose, "I like the way I'm dressed now."
"Inuyasha," pleaded Souta, "I'm telling ya, you HAVE to wear this! Those clothes won't keep you warm out in the snow for long! Just try it on for Kami's sake!"
"No."
"Grrrr..." growled Souta as he glared at the belligerent hanyou, "Fine, be that way! I'll get you into this sooner or later!" He turned to show Miroku and Shippo how to get into their outfits. After much tugging and pulling, a lot of swear words, snickering from Inuyasha, and frustrated sighs, Souta finally got Shippo into his suit. Yes, only Shippo. Miroku was still hung up on the zipper part of his snow wear. (A/N: *snickering uncontrollably* Baka!) Souta then went to help Miroku. Finally, after a long amount of time, he got the monk into the suit!
"YESSSS!!" shouted Souta in glee as he jumped around happily. Stopping in his joy, he turned to glare at Inuyasha. "You will wait here. I still have to get that suit on you." And with that, he turned and walked out the door with Shippo and Miroku in tow. Inuyasha snorted. No mere human's demands could keep him in this room! He went towards the door and tried to open it. It wouldn't open!
"Damn!" muttered Inuyasha as he realized what had happened. "Monk!" he shouted as he pounded on the door, "Take off that damn ofuda and let me out of here, or there'll be hell to pay!" Souta's voice came back through the door.
"Inuyasha, I'm sorry to have to resort to this, but you leave me no choice!" Inuyasha could hear the footsteps of his companions walking away, heading towards the other room. What could they be planning?!
Meanwhile, in Kagome's room, Kagome had managed to get Sango into her suit quite easily, the only trouble happening when she had to get booties on Kirara. (A/N: Yeah, ya know, those small little boots for cats? Makes 'em look hella cute!)
"Okay, done," she said cheerfully as she managed to tie the last boot in place, "shall we go now and see how the boys are faring?" Just then, a knock came at the door, followed by her little brother's voice.
"Kagome, are you done in there yet, cause I need your help!" he said through the closed door.
"Just finished!" she said as she walked over to the door and opened it. "What do you need help with? It looks like everybody has got their suits on. Well, everybody except Inuyasha."
"Um, that's the problem," said Souta abashedly, looking down at the ground, "I can't get him to change into his suit. I'm sure that he knows how, but he won't change, no matter what I say! Could you convince him to change please?"
She blushed furiously, "Sure, okay." He led her down to his room where they had changed. Stuck on the door was one of Miroku's ofuda spells.
"So that's how you got him to stay," said Sango as she eyed the door, "we better leave. He might get angry, and we wouldn't want to be here when he does." They all hastily left for the lobby, deciding to wait there till Kagome was done arguing with Inuyasha. Kagome watched them head off to the lobby with a reluctant expression. This wouldn't be good....
She quietly opened the door and slipped into the room, careful to leave the ofuda on. Off into the corner, she saw Inuyasha with a peeved expression on his face. She sighed; this REALLY wouldn't be good!
"Oi, wench! What are you doing here?! Shouldn't your kid brother be here trying to make me wear this stupid outfit?" he asked as he held up the black and red snowsuit.
"Um," said Kagome with an embarrassed look on her face.
"Well?"
"He sent me here to get you into that suit," she admitted, her face burning for some unknown reason.
"Feh," he said as he stood up and walked straight up to her, "and HOW exactly do you expect to force me into this thing?" he smirked, "You certainly can't 'sit' me into it!"
His face was only a foot away from hers, and her heart was beating faster. Why was she acting like this? Suddenly, she got angry as she realized that he thought that he had the upper hand.
"Oh really?" she countered, smiling innocently, "If you don't get into that suit, I'm gonna have to resort to violent measures."
He gulped at that. He had forgotten that she could still 'sit' him into oblivion if she wanted.
"I'm giving you till the count of three to start changing," she warned, "One," he still looked indecisive, "two," I think that he's warming up to the idea, "Three." Too late. He really should think faster. "Fine then, Inuyasha. I guess that I will just have to SIT here *wham* and stay SITting here *thump* until you stop SITting *thud* around and just get into your outfit! Or should I send Miroku up here to baby-SIT *slam* you till we're done having fun instead of SITting around *thud again* waiting for you to stop SITting here. *slam* Ya know, this SITuation *thump* is really starting to get on my nerves! Now go get yourself SITuated *splumph* into those snow clothes of yours." HAHA! You really should listen to me!
He lay on the floor, cursing hysterically. Out of his wild rantings she heard the word "Bitch!" screamed several times.
"I said NOW Inuyasha!"
Grumbling he got up off the floor. He sulked and muttered, "I can't."
She looked surprised, "Why not?"
"Don't know how."
"Oh," now she felt like an idiot, and was all the more aware of the situation this was becoming, "I'll show you how then." And with that, she proceeded to explain to him how all of the zippers and buttons worked, and what went where. She pushed him into the bathroom and told him to get into it. For a few minutes, she could hear muttered curses, thumps, and shuffling. Finally, he stepped out. She could only gape. If possible, he was even MORE handsome in those clothes than before! He looked embarrassed at the looks she was giving him.
"Um, shall we go meet with the others?" he asked cautiously, aware that she could still be in a bad mood.
"Sure," she said distractedly, not able to take her eyes off of him. Hothothothothothothothothothothothothothothothothothothothothothothot!!!!! kept running through her mind. She then grew aware of what she was thinking and tried to rid herself of those thoughts. She led him into the lobby to where the others were sitting and chatting, talking about how long it would take her to make Inuyasha get dressed into his snow suit. With a few perverted comments from Miroku of course.
Inuyasha heard, and snuck up on the monk, punching his fist onto the monk's oh-so-hard head. "Ow," was the sound that came from Miroku. In fact, the sound was so interesting to Inuyasha that he decided to hit him again. Same results. Miroku sat nursing his pounding head, while all the girls just stared at Inuyasha. Inuyasha tried to pretend that he didn't notice, but it's kind of hard to when ALL of the girls were staring. And I mean every one of them in the room. Think back to the incident in the diner. Same thing happened.
Inuyasha hastily led the group outside, away from all the gawking females. From there, Kagome and the gang made their way to the Rental Shop. Upon entering, the found their other friends had already arrived and were picking out their footwear and choosing whether to ski or snowboard. Naturally, all of them had chosen to snowboard. (A/N: None of you stated whether you skied or snowboarded, so I made you all into snowboarders. SNOWBOARDING ROCKS!! HAHAHAHA! ALL SHALL BOW DOWN TO THE SNOWBOARDERS!!!!)
They all greeted each other, with more than a few looks at Inuyasha from the other party. Kagome warded the other girls off with a few evil glares, and proceeded to show Inuyasha all the equipment he needed. SHE would be the only one to help him! Not some other girls! (A/N: Jealous.) Tinuviel showed Sango the fine art of choosing snowboarding, while Cat lectured Shippo on why snowboarding was better than skiing. The rest of the girls fought over who would NOT have to show Miroku, and in the end it was Senshi who lost the fight. Grumbling, she was forced to stand near him and help him out. Poor Senshi.
"HENTAI!!!!" she screamed as she felt a certain perverted monk's hand touch her in a place that was rather unmentionable.
SMACK!!!!! She pounded her snowboard down upon the monk's head, knocking him unconscious. "DIE!" she would have killed him if her friends hadn't insisted that she put the snowboard down. He lay there, unconscious, for the remainder of the time.
After about twenty minutes, all the friends were outfitted in snowboarding gear. Shippo and Sango were to afraid to pick skiing. (A/N: HAHAHAHAH! LONG LIVE SNOWBOARDING! MUAHAHAHA!!!)
Now it was time for the lessons!
****************************************************
Well, the first hour started out like any other. Slide for three inches, fall. Slide for three inches, fall. Yeah, like that. By the end of the snowboarding class, Inuyasha was the only one that actually grew better. After the lessons, he decided that he would go onto the slopes and board some more. He really liked this sport! Shippo decided that he would just make snowmen on the side of the hill. Sango, Miroku, Kirara, I.R., Merea, Saturn, and Arwen, all decided that they would like to have a snowball war instead!
****************************************************
With Inu, Kagome, Shippo, Senshi, Squirrel, Cat, and Tinuviel:
~ Inu's P.O.V. ~
Snowboarding was the coolest thing he had ever done in his life! He decided after his first few runs on the slopes. He was so good that he could now go on any level of slope he wanted! He saw Shippo playing at the bottom of the hill he was on, building a snowman. Kagome was making snow angels, while Senshi was helping Shippo. Squirrel just sat huddled in her many coats, sneezing from time to time and muttering, "Stupid snow!" Cat was burying one of her minions in the snow, careful to pile it up over the poor minion's head. Tinuviel was helping Cat.
Inuyasha's gaze kept being drawn to the snowman. He came up with an extremely evil idea. He started down the hill, angling towards a jump he saw that was right next to the snowman. gathering speed, he rocketed off the jump, flew through the air, and while flying, managed to knock the head off Shippo's snowman. He started to chuckle, but his evil happiness did not last long. He heard the word, "Sit!" shouted, and felt himself being slammed into the cold snow. Getting up, he pushed himself off the ground, only to be faced with the five girls and one angry kitsune. Uh-oh. They didn't look very happy. He quickly got up, and sped down the slope with six people hot on his tail.
And so began the great Inuyasha Race. *snicker* Board boy! BOARD!
He felt the board slowing down as he came to the bottom of the hill. In front of him were the snowball fight grounds. He dashed onto one of the sides and hid behind a shield that had been erected from snow. All around him flew snowballs. On his side, he could see Saturn, I.R., Arwen, and Merea. They waved hi, than went back to the fight. Glancing over, he found himself staring into six angry eyes.
Gee, wonder what happens next?
