Chapter 15: A Road Trip and a Little Insanity
"You ready Kagome?" InuYasha asked.
"Hai!" she replied. InuYasha, Miroku and Sango had gathered at her house; it was the day of the trip and they were ready to leave. They had all waited anxiously for Kagome to finish packing in her kitchen and were relieved to see her come down with all her stuff. But just as InuYasha grabbed his and Kagome's bags, her family walked in unexpectedly to bid them farewell. All four of them groaned.
"Take care of yourself!" Kagome's mother said, giving her a quick hug.
"I will." Kagome replied.
"Bring me something back, ok Kagome-neesan?" Souta demanded.
Kagome laughed and ruffled his hair. "Sure."
She appraoched her grandfather, offering a handshake. Instead, he turned to InuYasha and glared, the boy jumped back. "You there!" her grandfather warned. "Take care of the girls and.." he turned to Miroku. "Don't try anything funny."
"Sir, yes sir!" Miroku joked, sending Sango into a giggle fit.
"Don't worry about me or the girls, it's Miroku that needs the baby-sitting." InuYasha smirked. Miroku fumed, causing Sango to laugh harder. InuYasha winked at Kagome and she chuckled.
"Aww... so kawaii!" her mother cheered.
"Kagome has a boyfriend! Kagome has a boyfriend! Kagome has a boyfriend!" Souta chanted.
Her grandpa twitched, made his way to InuYasha and pointed an accusing finger at the boy. "I'm warning you.... if anything should get out of hand....-"
"Don't worry Mr. Higurashi!" Sango assured him, after all her laughing. She wiped her eyes, "We know what we're doing."
"Which reminds me.." Miroku spoke. "We best be on our way now."
After Kagome waved good-bye to her family, she made her way out the door that InuYasha held open, Sango did the same but just as Miroku followed, InuYasha shut the door in his face.
Sango laughed hysterically as an angry Miroku stomped by them. She punched InuYasha's arm. "You're actually alright."
He returned the punch. "You're alright too.... for a girl." Kagome and Sango laughed as InuYasha smirked, but they
were soon interrupted by Miroku's girly scream.
"Oh Kami-sama!!!!" he cried.
The girls turned to look at him quickly, but found themselves speechless at the sight of what he was gawking at; InuYasha's car.
Kagome walked up to it with Sango and InuYasha behind her. She turned to look at Miroku who looked like he was ready to faint, judging by his expression. She then turned to see Sango's reaction. She was stuttering.
"I-I... h-how... d-did y-you know?" she stuttered. Kagome shook her head.
There in front of them....
was....
a....
.....
.....
LAMBOURGINI DIABLO!! (Rikku: I'm dying to get one!!)
"You like it, eh?" InuYasha joked, leaning on his car.
"H-how d-did you?" Miroku stuttered, still shocked.
"As ruthless as my brother seems.... he was nice enough to get me this. Just got it 2 weeks ago..." InuYasha explained. "but I still think Sesshoumaru's nothing but a snake..." he added quickly.
Kagome was just about to examine the car with Miroku, when Sango grabbed her wrist and pulled her away from the boys so they couldn't hear what she had to say.
"So... you weren't lying when you said his bro is Purachina. Inc's president..." she spoke.
"You didn't believe me? Kagome inquired.
"Not until I saw his Lambourgini..." Sango smirked.
Kagome felt a little angered by Sango's disbelief in her. She quickly shook it off though. "So you're starting to like him, eh?"
"InuYasha?"
"Who else would I be talking about?"
"Well.... he's ok.." Sango admitted. "But he isn't so great..."
"Oh?"
"Believe me, if he was so 'perfect', than I would have snatched him from under your nose by now." she joked.
Kagome smiled. 'Maybe they'll finally start to get along...' she thought.
"Kagome! Sango!" InuYasha called. The two girls turned to face him. "We gotta get a move on.... NOW!"
Kagome nodded. InuYasha gestured her to take the passenger's seat when she reached him; she did so as Miroku glared daggers at her. InuYasha took the drivers seat as the other two took the back ones.
One thought crossed Kagome's mind when InuYasha turned the engine on. 'Finally... we're leaving for Kyoto!'
********
Kagome admired the comfy leather seat she was in as she watched InuYasha drive, they had been on the road for an hour already.
'I won...' she thought. 'I actually won him from Kikyo.... he's MY baka.' (Rikku: Sound familiar?) Her boyfriend (Rikku: I love typing that! ^.^) smirked as their eyes met, neither of them saying a word..... unlike the two in the back.
Miroku, unbelievable, was still complimenting InuYasha on his car as Sango chanted loudly.
"Turn on the radio! Turn on the radio! Turn on the radio!" she had been chanting that for about an hour, but no one was willing to shut her up.
"The paint job is excilent..." Miroku mumbled. "Yellow definetely fits a Lambourgini..." (Rikku: I know, eh?)
Kagome couldn't help but think that her two friends were totally embarassing her in front of InuYasha, she groaned. InuYasha gave her a concerned look but she just shook her head, which told him she was fine.
"Turn on the radio! Turn on the radio! Turn on the radio!" Sango continued.
"Iie, iie, iie!" InuYasha argued, finally breaking his own silence.
"Onegai!!!" Sango pleaded.
"Iie!!"
"This must have a lot of horse power...." Miroku spoke, not even noticing the arguement.
"Why not?" Sango inquired.
"Because!" InuYasha protested.
"InuYasha..." Kagome said quietly. He turned to face her. "Keep your eyes on the road..."
He nodded but soon jumped when he realized he had been driving on the wrong lane.
Kagome turned to look out the window... it had started to rain. She watched the other cars zoom by, but out of the corner of her eye, she could see Sango's arm reaching for the radio's 'on' button.
"HEEEEYYY YAAA!!!!" sang a loud voice, causing InuYasha to jump again, Miroku to snap out of his previous state and Kagome to mumble curse words under her breath.
Sango rejoiced victoriously, singing along with the song. "Heeeyy Yaaa!!"
Kagome and Miroku sighed loudly. The thing was, Sango had a horrible voice and when she began to sing.... it would take a miracle to shut her up.
InuYasha growled.
Miroku began to yell at his insane friend. "WOMAN! YOU ARE CRAZY! AND TO THINK I THOUGHT ABOUT DATING YOU!!!!!!!!" he hollered.
Sango stopped for a moment, shrugged and began to sing again.
Kagome soon joined Miroku. "AT LEAST LET ME TURN IT DOWN!!!"
"IIE!" she protested. "IT TOOK ME SO LONG JUST TO TURN IT ON, SO NOW I'M NOT GONNA GIVE IN TO YOU FOOLS!"
Kagome shook her head and gave up with the yelling, her throat had started to hurt. Miroku was still screaming, but this time as loud as ever. Kagome gave InuYasha an apologetic (sp?) look, but he just smiled. "It's not your fault." he whispered.
Giving her attention back to the road, Kagome sighed. 'This is gonna be a long, long road trip...'
******
When they finally reached Kyoto, it was dark out and still raining. The four decided to stay at a hotel for the night. They bought two rooms, one for Kagome and Sango and the other one for InuYasha and Miroku. After paying, Kagome and Sango raced to their room, and locked it carefully so Miroku wouldn't be able to get it.
Kagome sat down on the far left bed. "You're crazy, ne?" she said to Sango.
Sango shrugged and took a seat beside Kagome. "Hey, I needed the music."
"And why is that?" Kagome demanded.
"Kagome, we've been friends since preschool. How could you not know that I need music?"
"Because you've never said anything about it."
Sango sighed. "You caught me... that wasn't the reason."
"Then what is?"
"I was just trying to lighten the mood."
"That's all?"
"Hai..."
"And you couldn't do that without embarassing me?"
"So THAT'S what this is all about.."
"Nani?"
"You were afraid InuYasha would think you were weird or whatever because of Miroku and I... right?"
Kagome studied the carpet on the floor. "Iie... that's not it." she lied.
"Whatever..." Sango replied, reaching for the phone.
"What are you doing?" Kagome asked as Sango dialed in a number.
"Calling room service." she replied.
~KNOCK, KNOCK~
"I'll get it!" Kagome called, dashing for the door. She opened it quickly but unexpectedly came face to face with a cheerful Miroku and an emotionless InuYasha. "Er- what's up?"
The two boys rudely showed themselves in without a word. Miroku took a seat near Sango and InuYasha stood behind Kagome as she shut the door.
"We're going out for awhile." InuYasha explained. "Miroku's idea..." he sighed.
Kagome turned to face him and chuckled. She glanced at Miroku, he had moved from his seat to sit beside Sango on the bed, they laughed as they listened to the phone between their heads. "Where to?"
InuYasha leaned against the wall. "We agreed on the arcade we saw on our way here." a stern expression found its way to his face. "We- well 'I'- wanna enjoy Kyoto before Sesshomaru ruins it all..." he turned to Miroku. "You DO remember where the arcade is, right?"
Miroku had stopped laughing, but Sango had started rolling on the bed from laughter with the phone beside her ear. Miroku gave InuYasha a stern look. "Course I do, I know the way to it like I know the back of my hand."
"Honto?"
"Well... er- I don't really know the back of my hand very well..."
InuYasha groaned loudly. He walked over to Kagome. "Take care, alright? Keep things under control." he said, receiving a small peck from Kagome.
"I'll be fine... enjoy your night, and..." she turned to give Miroku a stern look. "Keep your filfthy hands away from the women, the last thing you want to do is make enemies in Kyoto."
Miroku nodded,- though Kagome knew he hadn't taken in a word she had said- bid farewell to her and Sango and left ahead of InuYasha who didn't even bother to say 'sayonara'.
After the boys left Kagome carefully locked the door and turned to Sango. "What was that phone call all about?" she demanded.
Sango was still laughing. She slowly calmed herself and turned off the phone, placing it on the bed. "Nothing really...." she mumbled.
"Oh, really?" Kagome said walking toward her friend, the girl was up to no good and she knew it.
"Just... er- dialed the wrong number..."
"When you were trying to call room service?"
"Hey, it can happen..."
Kagome sighed and took a seat beside Sango. "Tell me."
Sango sighed. "Um... I kinda er- called a different room in the hotel... one where a, um... man and woman were staying..."
It took Kagome a moment to understand, but when she did, she gave Sango a disgusted look. "Ewww..." she shook her head, clearing her thoughts. "You're turning out like Miroku..."
Sango glared. "Not true! It was just funny!"
Kagome gave Sango a stern look and sighed. "Just call room service, I'm getting hungry, and..." her voice tensed. "When I say 'room service' I mean 'ROOM SERVICE'!!"
Sango saluted Kagome. "Aye, aye captain!"
Kagome rolled her eyes and left to check the mini bar. Knowing that she wasn't old enough to drink, she merely examined the drinks.
"Okay, I ordered enough for the both of us!" Sango chirped, ending Kagome's 'examination'. "Whadda ya wanna do until dinner comes?"
Kagome shrugged and took a seat on the chair Miroku had sat in before. She switched on the television and skipped through the channels, finally landing on an anime show- 'Yu Yu Hakusho'. "I dunno.... watch some t.v.?" (Rikku: Yu Yu Hakusho is one of the best animes! I only watched a few eps though.... *sigh* I wanna watch more!!!! .)
Sango groaned. "T.V.? We can always do that back in Tokyo.... I wanna do a... a... Kyoto thing!"
Kagome turned in her seat to give her friend a strange look. " 'Kyoto thing'? What is that supposed the mean?"
"You know... something we can only do in Kyoto..."
"Well we can't leave, InuYasha and Miroku are expecting to see us here when they get back."
"No fair! Howcome THEY get to leave? Now we're stuck in this hotel for the whole night!" Sango whined.
"Chill..." Kagome spoke. She thought for a moment. "Tell ya what, if you quit complaining and quiet down.... I'll play a little game with you- something fun. And when tomorrow comes, we'll keep Inu and Roku here and go on a little shopping spree... ok?"
A grin spread across Sango's face. "Okay...." she said in a sly voice. "But we can only play the little game I have in mind when the food comes... alright?"
Kagome gulped. The girl was evil- pure evil. 'Only Kami-sama knows what the little bitch is up to...' she thought. 'but anything is better than putting up with her constant nagging...' she sighed. "Alright... we'll play your 'little game'."
Sango didn't say another word. She slowly walked to the pile of bags and luggages and took out a long jersey and shorts from one of her own bags. She then ran to the washroom to change. Kagome got up, turned the T.V. off and began to go through her luggage for anything comfortable to wear, just like Sango did.
Sango came out, again not saying a word, and placed her other clothes- the ones she was wearing before- neatly in the same bag she had gone through a moment ago. She then skipped to a boombox located on a shelf in the room and slipped in her favourite 'Gackt' cd. (Rikku: Please tell me if you know him too! ^.^) Turning the volume up extremely high, she grinned again, taking a seat on the bed once again. The whole time she was doing this, Kagome had been watching her with a worried expression. She feared for her own life.... what was Sango up to? Kagome shook it off and entered the washroom to change.
********
"Sango!! What the hell is this???" Kagome hollered at the top of her lungs. She had just finished changing and unexpectedly found a very unpleasant meal before her.
Sango came rushing into the room, she had just finished taking a shower and her hair was dripping wet. She looked around to see what Kagome was so angry about. "What's wrong?"
Kagome pointed a finger at the trolley (sp?) and the food on it. "This is what you call 'dinner'!?"
Sango smirked. "I wanted to enjoy my time at this hotel."
"So you order.... THIS?"
"What? Don't you like it?"
Kagome looked at the food once more. "Well ya.... but.... BUT THIS FOOD ISN'T SUPPOSED TO SATISFY HUNGER.... TH-THIS IS.... DESERT!"
Sango laughed and walked toward the trolley. On it was about a dozen small bowls of vanilla ice-cream, Germany's finest dark chocolate, strawberry milkshakes, a plate of bite-sized double fudge brownies, 4 cans of Pepsi, 2 unexpected bottles of Budweiser, 2 large bowls of banana-splits and one human-sized chocolate and vanilla sundae.
"So? I never said I wanted to fill my stomach."
Kagome narrowed her eyes. "But I DID!!"
"No you didn't."
"Well I didn't say EXACTLY that, I said I was hungry!"
"So.... eat up!" Sango smirked and turned to eat. At that moment Kagome felt as if she would have given anything to get her hands around than scrawny little neck of hers...
Kagome approached Sango as she ate spoonfuls of ice-cream. Shaking with anger, she forced herself to calm down and sit beside her 'friend'.
"Mmm.... eaffsumff!" Sango said, her mouth full with ice-cream.
"Nani?" Kagome asked, taking a sip from a milkshake she had just rightfully claimed as hers. Maybe it wasn't THAT bad... she DID love junkfood.... but at that moment she was dying to have some rice or noodles. Anything her stomach would allow to go in.
Sango swallowed the mouthful, shivering at the brain-freeze. "I said, eat some!"
"I am!" Kagome hollered showing the milkshake to Sango. "See?"
"Iie, I meant the ice-cream! It's really good!" Sango explained.
"It looks like your everyday ice-cream!"
Sango grinned an evil grin. "Looks can be deceiving...."
Kagome nearly choked from laughter, Sango began to laugh too. And before Kagome knew it, she was scarffing down as much 'food' as Sango had started to. Their deserts were almost half done!
Kagome's face was covered with chocolate ice-cream, Sango's had fudge plastered on it and the carpet was covered in chocolate wrappers, empty cans and even some ice-cream had spilt on it. The only thing the two girls hadn't touched was the beer.
"Mmm.... this chocolate is really good!!!!" Kagome screeched. She began to gobble down some of the sundae since it had started to melt, Sango helped too. "This taste like shit!" Kagome cried, spitting out what she had in her mouth.
"Iie! It's delicious!" Sango exclaimed.
"Whatever..." Kagome lowered her head to pick up some wrappers on the floor, she didn't want to mess up the room after the hotel had generously given her and her friend all the food.
~!~WHACK~!~
"Hey! What was that for!?" Kagome screamed, looking up to Sango who had just smacked her head for no reason what so ever. Her friend began to snicker.
"Tee-hee!!" was all Sango could say.
Kagome fumed. "That hurt!" This sent Sango into a giggle fit. "I'm warning you!" Kagome said through clenched teeth. But Sango continued to laugh. Kagome slowly got up and forcefully grabbed a handful of the sundae. "1....2....3!"
Sango shrieked as Kagome whipped the ice-cream on the insane girl's face. Sango got up this time, no longer laughing. She wiped the mess from her face and grabbed a Pepsi can. She shook it fast and rough, an evil grin on her face once again. Kagome watched her suspiciously. Suddenly Sango stopped with the shaking and cackled as she opened the can, sending a fountain of soda into Kagome's face.
"FOOD FIGHT!!!" they called in unison.
*********
Sango laid on one of the beds, almost unconcious as Kagome collapsed on the wrapper and ice-cream covered carpet.
Kagome took a deep breath. "I won that match and you know that." Kagome spoke.
"Iie, we didn't finish yet...." Sango replied.
"Whatcha talkin' 'bout?" Kagome inquired. (Rikku: Remind you of someone?)
"Best two outta three... you only won round 1.." Sango explained.
Kagome groaned. "Not again..."
Sango giggled. "Nah... I got something else in mind..."
"What are you pla- OMFF!" Kagome had just sat up to have a pillow thrown in her face. She glared at her 'friend'. "Are you challenging me?"
Sango stood firmly on the bed. "What if I am?"
Kagome grabbed the pillow Sango had hurled at her, and got up. Suddenly, she charged at Sango with full speed.
~!~THUD~!~
"Why you little!" Sango screeched through clenched teeth.
Soon the girls were at an all out pillow fight.
Sango laughed. "You're so pathetic!" she cried out of amusement when Kagome missed her by an inch. "You're never gon- AHHH!"
~!~ANOTHER THUD~!~
Kagome laughed loudly after she had struck Sango with her pillow, now her friend was on the floor, after falling off the bed, looking as if she had fainted. "What was that you were saying?" she sneered. Looking down to Sango she gulped, the girl wasn't speaking. "Sango? Sango? SANGO-CHAN!?"
Still no answer.
Kagome hopped off the bed and rushed to Sango's side. She shook her friend. "This isn't funny... Sango! Wake up!"
Nothing.
"Sango!!" Kagome pleaded. "Get up! Joke's over.... ha-ha..."
Kagome waited once again for a respond, but nothing came out of Sango's mouth.... she didn't even move.
Kagome stopped her attempt to awaken the girl. "Sango..." she whispered.
.....
.....
.....
.....
"HA! KAGOME, I SOOO GOT YOU! HAHAHAHA!! THAT'S FOR WACKING ME TOO HARD!!" Sango suddenly exclaimed, causing Kagome to jump. "Kagome? What's wrong? I'm ok now... it was only a joke... Kagome? Speak!"
Kagome gritted her teeth together. "Sango..... that.... was..... not..... funny..." she said slowly, glarring daggers at her friend. "Never..... ever..... try.... that..... AGAIN, GOD DAMNIT! I WAS SO AFRAID!!!" Kagome suddenly cried.
Sango didn't speak, a apologetic expression plastered itself on her face. "G-gome- HAHAHA!" she suddenly bursted into laughter, her expression changed to an overwhelmed-with-laughter one. (Rikku: ???)
Kagome stared at her friend in wonder... how did she do it? How did she trick her so easily?
Kagome slowly began to giggle..... she couldn't surpress it and soon, just like a volcano, the two girls arupted... only in this case, into fits of laughter.
*********
"Hey... Kagome, Sango we're back!" called a voice from the door. Slowly the knob turned and two boys walked in confused at the scene before them.
Still on the floor where the chocolate wrappers, but feathers had been added too. Ice-cream was everywhere, a trolley of chocolate, ice-cream and drinks had been flipped upside down. A cd was being played loudly from a boombox and two hyper girls were laughing hysterically on the carpet.
"Er... what happened here?" asked InuYasha, one of the two boys that had walked into the disaster.
The girls didn't answer, they just continued to laugh.
"What the hell happened to you two? AND WHAT HAPPENED TO THE ROOM??" hollered Miroku, the other boy.
The laughter calmed a bit but it was still extreme.
InuYasha ran to Kagome's side and shook her. "Kagome... stop laughing already.... Kagome..."
Miroku locked the door behind him as he attempted to lift the trolley. "Damn thing..." he mumbled.
Slowly, Kagome stopped laughing, though Sango was still at it. She got up with InuYasha's support and took a deep breath. "We had the best time ever... we went high on sugar!" she chuckled.
"I can see that..." InuYasha sighed. "We're gonna have to clean this up, you know."
"I know..." Kagome spoke. "But we couldn't help it! It was so much fun... we didn't expect it to turn into one big mess... gomen."
InuYasha sighed again. "It's alright..." he said, watching Miroku drop the whole trolley. "But... what is this crap playing?"
Sango suddenly bolted up. Her laughter had stopped completely. "This is my favourite 'Gackt' cd playing..." she said through clenched teeth.
"Well can you shut it off?"
Sango glared, but got up to do so. Suddenly the room grew quiet, no one spoke except for an angry Miroku who was stomping around the room mumbling curse words under his breath.
"Well..." InuYasha finally spoke. "You two should start cleaning yourselves and the room, I'm gonna go stop Miroku before he goes 'Godzilla' on us."
"Wait..." Kagome spoke. "How did you two get the key?"
"Oh... ya, well you see..." InuYasha said. "We thought you two would be asleep so we asked the woman at the desk to give us the key to your room."
"And she actually gave it to you?" Sango asked, joining in with the conversation.
InuYasha nodded and walked toward Miroku.
"Well, that just proves how dangerous this place is..." Kagome spoke. "But still so generous! The food was grea- wait...Sango?"
"Hai?" her friend answered.
"That 'little game' you were planning.... was it to get us high?" Kagome asked, already knowing the answer.
"Maybe..." Sango replied, smirking as she left to the washroom, leaving Kagome utterly speechless and shocked.
So the night ended with an almost-sparkling-clean room and InuYasha dragging an angry Miroku out the door... no one even bothered to said 'good-night', but Kagome still had one heck of a great time.

Chapter 15: A Road Trip and a Little Insanity
"You ready Kagome?" InuYasha asked.
"Hai!" she replied. InuYasha, Miroku and Sango had gathered at her house; it was the day of the trip and they were ready to leave. They had all waited anxiously for Kagome to finish packing in her kitchen and were relieved to see her come down with all her stuff. But just as InuYasha grabbed his and Kagome's bags, her family walked in unexpectedly to bid them farewell. All four of them groaned.

"Kagome has a boyfriend! Kagome has a boyfriend! Kagome has a boyfriend!" Souta chanted.

Sango laughed hysterically as an angry Miroku stomped by them. She punched InuYasha's arm. "You're actually alright."
He returned the punch. "You're alright too.... for a girl." Kagome and Sango laughed as InuYasha smirked, but they
were soon interrupted by Miroku's girly scream.
"Oh Kami-sama!!!!" he cried.
The girls turned to look at him quickly, but found themselves speechless at the sight of what he was gawking at; InuYasha's car.
Kagome walked up to it with Sango and InuYasha behind her. She turned to look at Miroku who looked like he was ready to faint, judging by his expression. She then turned to see Sango's reaction. She was stuttering.
"I-I... h-how... d-did y-you know?" she stuttered. Kagome shook her head.

"InuYasha?"

"Well.... he's ok.." Sango admitted. "But he isn't so great..."
"Oh?"
"Believe me, if he was so 'perfect', than I would have snatched him from under your nose by now." she joked.
Kagome smiled. 'Maybe they'll finally start to get along...' she thought.
"Kagome! Sango!" InuYasha called. The two girls turned to face him. "We gotta get a move on.... NOW!"
Kagome nodded. InuYasha gestured her to take the passenger's seat when she reached him; she did so as Miroku glared daggers at her. InuYasha took the drivers seat as the other two took the back ones.
One thought crossed Kagome's mind when InuYasha turned the engine on. 'Finally... we're leaving for Kyoto!'
********
Kagome admired the comfy leather seat she was in as she watched InuYasha drive, they had been on the road for an hour already.
'I won...' she thought. 'I actually won him from Kikyo.... he's MY baka.' (Rikku: Sound familiar?) Her boyfriend (Rikku: I love typing that! ^.^) smirked as their eyes met, neither of them saying a word..... unlike the two in the back.
Miroku, unbelievable, was still complimenting InuYasha on his car as Sango chanted loudly.
"Turn on the radio! Turn on the radio! Turn on the radio!" she had been chanting that for about an hour, but no one was willing to shut her up.
"The paint job is excilent..." Miroku mumbled. "Yellow definetely fits a Lambourgini..." (Rikku: I know, eh?)
Kagome couldn't help but think that her two friends were totally embarassing her in front of InuYasha, she groaned. InuYasha gave her a concerned look but she just shook her head, which told him she was fine.

"Onegai!!!" Sango pleaded.
"Iie!!"
"This must have a lot of horse power...." Miroku spoke, not even noticing the arguement.
"Why not?" Sango inquired.
"Because!" InuYasha protested.
"InuYasha..." Kagome said quietly. He turned to face her. "Keep your eyes on the road..."
He nodded but soon jumped when he realized he had been driving on the wrong lane.
Kagome turned to look out the window... it had started to rain. She watched the other cars zoom by, but out of the corner of her eye, she could see Sango's arm reaching for the radio's 'on' button.
"HEEEEYYY YAAA!!!!" sang a loud voice, causing InuYasha to jump again, Miroku to snap out of his previous state and Kagome to mumble curse words under her breath.
Sango rejoiced victoriously, singing along with the song. "Heeeyy Yaaa!!"
Kagome and Miroku sighed loudly. The thing was, Sango had a horrible voice and when she began to sing.... it would take a miracle to shut her up.
InuYasha growled.
Miroku began to yell at his insane friend. "WOMAN! YOU ARE CRAZY! AND TO THINK I THOUGHT ABOUT DATING YOU!!!!!!!!" he hollered.
Sango stopped for a moment, shrugged and began to sing again.
Kagome soon joined Miroku. "AT LEAST LET ME TURN IT DOWN!!!"
"IIE!" she protested. "IT TOOK ME SO LONG JUST TO TURN IT ON, SO NOW I'M NOT GONNA GIVE IN TO YOU FOOLS!"
Kagome shook her head and gave up with the yelling, her throat had started to hurt. Miroku was still screaming, but this time as loud as ever. Kagome gave InuYasha an apologetic (sp?) look, but he just smiled. "It's not your fault." he whispered.
Giving her attention back to the road, Kagome sighed. 'This is gonna be a long, long road trip...'
******
When they finally reached Kyoto, it was dark out and still raining. The four decided to stay at a hotel for the night. They bought two rooms, one for Kagome and Sango and the other one for InuYasha and Miroku. After paying, Kagome and Sango raced to their room, and locked it carefully so Miroku wouldn't be able to get it.
Kagome sat down on the far left bed. "You're crazy, ne?" she said to Sango.
Sango shrugged and took a seat beside Kagome. "Hey, I needed the music."
"And why is that?" Kagome demanded.
"Kagome, we've been friends since preschool. How could you not know that I need music?"
"Because you've never said anything about it."
Sango sighed. "You caught me... that wasn't the reason."
"Then what is?"
"I was just trying to lighten the mood."
"That's all?"
"Hai..."
"And you couldn't do that without embarassing me?"
"So THAT'S what this is all about.."
"Nani?"
"You were afraid InuYasha would think you were weird or whatever because of Miroku and I... right?"
Kagome studied the carpet on the floor. "Iie... that's not it." she lied.
"Whatever..." Sango replied, reaching for the phone.
"What are you doing?" Kagome asked as Sango dialed in a number.
"Calling room service." she replied.
~KNOCK, KNOCK~
"I'll get it!" Kagome called, dashing for the door. She opened it quickly but unexpectedly came face to face with a cheerful Miroku and an emotionless InuYasha. "Er- what's up?"
The two boys rudely showed themselves in without a word. Miroku took a seat near Sango and InuYasha stood behind Kagome as she shut the door.
"We're going out for awhile." InuYasha explained. "Miroku's idea..." he sighed.
Kagome turned to face him and chuckled. She glanced at Miroku, he had moved from his seat to sit beside Sango on the bed, they laughed as they listened to the phone between their heads. "Where to?"
InuYasha leaned against the wall. "We agreed on the arcade we saw on our way here." a stern expression found its way to his face. "We- well 'I'- wanna enjoy Kyoto before Sesshomaru ruins it all..." he turned to Miroku. "You DO remember where the arcade is, right?"
Miroku had stopped laughing, but Sango had started rolling on the bed from laughter with the phone beside her ear. Miroku gave InuYasha a stern look. "Course I do, I know the way to it like I know the back of my hand."
"Honto?"
"Well... er- I don't really know the back of my hand very well..."
InuYasha groaned loudly. He walked over to Kagome. "Take care, alright? Keep things under control." he said, receiving a small peck from Kagome.
"I'll be fine... enjoy your night, and..." she turned to give Miroku a stern look. "Keep your filfthy hands away from the women, the last thing you want to do is make enemies in Kyoto."
Miroku nodded,- though Kagome knew he hadn't taken in a word she had said- bid farewell to her and Sango and left ahead of InuYasha who didn't even bother to say 'sayonara'.
After the boys left Kagome carefully locked the door and turned to Sango. "What was that phone call all about?" she demanded.
Sango was still laughing. She slowly calmed herself and turned off the phone, placing it on the bed. "Nothing really...." she mumbled.
"Oh, really?" Kagome said walking toward her friend, the girl was up to no good and she knew it.
"Just... er- dialed the wrong number..."
"When you were trying to call room service?"
"Hey, it can happen..."
Kagome sighed and took a seat beside Sango. "Tell me."
Sango sighed. "Um... I kinda er- called a different room in the hotel... one where a, um... man and woman were staying..."
It took Kagome a moment to understand, but when she did, she gave Sango a disgusted look. "Ewww..." she shook her head, clearing her thoughts. "You're turning out like Miroku..."
Sango glared. "Not true! It was just funny!"
Kagome gave Sango a stern look and sighed. "Just call room service, I'm getting hungry, and..." her voice tensed. "When I say 'room service' I mean 'ROOM SERVICE'!!"
Sango saluted Kagome. "Aye, aye captain!"
Kagome rolled her eyes and left to check the mini bar. Knowing that she wasn't old enough to drink, she merely examined the drinks.
"Okay, I ordered enough for the both of us!" Sango chirped, ending Kagome's 'examination'. "Whadda ya wanna do until dinner comes?"
Kagome shrugged and took a seat on the chair Miroku had sat in before. She switched on the television and skipped through the channels, finally landing on an anime show- 'Yu Yu Hakusho'. "I dunno.... watch some t.v.?" (Rikku: Yu Yu Hakusho is one of the best animes! I only watched a few eps though.... *sigh* I wanna watch more!!!! .)
Sango groaned. "T.V.? We can always do that back in Tokyo.... I wanna do a... a... Kyoto thing!"
Kagome turned in her seat to give her friend a strange look. " 'Kyoto thing'? What is that supposed the mean?"
"You know... something we can only do in Kyoto..."
"Well we can't leave, InuYasha and Miroku are expecting to see us here when they get back."
"No fair! Howcome THEY get to leave? Now we're stuck in this hotel for the whole night!" Sango whined.
"Chill..." Kagome spoke. She thought for a moment. "Tell ya what, if you quit complaining and quiet down.... I'll play a little game with you- something fun. And when tomorrow comes, we'll keep Inu and Roku here and go on a little shopping spree... ok?"
A grin spread across Sango's face. "Okay...." she said in a sly voice. "But we can only play the little game I have in mind when the food comes... alright?"
Kagome gulped. The girl was evil- pure evil. 'Only Kami-sama knows what the little bitch is up to...' she thought. 'but anything is better than putting up with her constant nagging...' she sighed. "Alright... we'll play your 'little game'."
Sango didn't say another word. She slowly walked to the pile of bags and luggages and took out a long jersey and shorts from one of her own bags. She then ran to the washroom to change. Kagome got up, turned the T.V. off and began to go through her luggage for anything comfortable to wear, just like Sango did.
Sango came out, again not saying a word, and placed her other clothes- the ones she was wearing before- neatly in the same bag she had gone through a moment ago. She then skipped to a boombox located on a shelf in the room and slipped in her favourite 'Gackt' cd. (Rikku: Please tell me if you know him too! ^.^) Turning the volume up extremely high, she grinned again, taking a seat on the bed once again. The whole time she was doing this, Kagome had been watching her with a worried expression. She feared for her own life.... what was Sango up to? Kagome shook it off and entered the washroom to change.
********
"Sango!! What the hell is this???" Kagome hollered at the top of her lungs. She had just finished changing and unexpectedly found a very unpleasant meal before her.
Sango came rushing into the room, she had just finished taking a shower and her hair was dripping wet. She looked around to see what Kagome was so angry about. "What's wrong?"
Kagome pointed a finger at the trolley (sp?) and the food on it. "This is what you call 'dinner'!?"
Sango smirked. "I wanted to enjoy my time at this hotel."
"So you order.... THIS?"
"What? Don't you like it?"
Kagome looked at the food once more. "Well ya.... but.... BUT THIS FOOD ISN'T SUPPOSED TO SATISFY HUNGER.... TH-THIS IS.... DESERT!"
Sango laughed and walked toward the trolley. On it was about a dozen small bowls of vanilla ice-cream, Germany's finest dark chocolate, strawberry milkshakes, a plate of bite-sized double fudge brownies, 4 cans of Pepsi, 2 unexpected bottles of Budweiser, 2 large bowls of banana-splits and one human-sized chocolate and vanilla sundae.
"So? I never said I wanted to fill my stomach."
Kagome narrowed her eyes. "But I DID!!"
"No you didn't."
"Well I didn't say EXACTLY that, I said I was hungry!"
"So.... eat up!" Sango smirked and turned to eat. At that moment Kagome felt as if she would have given anything to get her hands around than scrawny little neck of hers...
Kagome approached Sango as she ate spoonfuls of ice-cream. Shaking with anger, she forced herself to calm down and sit beside her 'friend'.
"Mmm.... eaffsumff!" Sango said, her mouth full with ice-cream.
"Nani?" Kagome asked, taking a sip from a milkshake she had just rightfully claimed as hers. Maybe it wasn't THAT bad... she DID love junkfood.... but at that moment she was dying to have some rice or noodles. Anything her stomach would allow to go in.
Sango swallowed the mouthful, shivering at the brain-freeze. "I said, eat some!"
"I am!" Kagome hollered showing the milkshake to Sango. "See?"
"Iie, I meant the ice-cream! It's really good!" Sango explained.
"It looks like your everyday ice-cream!"
Sango grinned an evil grin. "Looks can be deceiving...."
Kagome nearly choked from laughter, Sango began to laugh too. And before Kagome knew it, she was scarffing down as much 'food' as Sango had started to. Their deserts were almost half done!
Kagome's face was covered with chocolate ice-cream, Sango's had fudge plastered on it and the carpet was covered in chocolate wrappers, empty cans and even some ice-cream had spilt on it. The only thing the two girls hadn't touched was the beer.
"Mmm.... this chocolate is really good!!!!" Kagome screeched. She began to gobble down some of the sundae since it had started to melt, Sango helped too. "This taste like shit!" Kagome cried, spitting out what she had in her mouth.
"Iie! It's delicious!" Sango exclaimed.
"Whatever..." Kagome lowered her head to pick up some wrappers on the floor, she didn't want to mess up the room after the hotel had generously given her and her friend all the food.
~!~WHACK~!~
"Hey! What was that for!?" Kagome screamed, looking up to Sango who had just smacked her head for no reason what so ever. Her friend began to snicker.
"Tee-hee!!" was all Sango could say.
Kagome fumed. "That hurt!" This sent Sango into a giggle fit. "I'm warning you!" Kagome said through clenched teeth. But Sango continued to laugh. Kagome slowly got up and forcefully grabbed a handful of the sundae. "1....2....3!"
Sango shrieked as Kagome whipped the ice-cream on the insane girl's face. Sango got up this time, no longer laughing. She wiped the mess from her face and grabbed a Pepsi can. She shook it fast and rough, an evil grin on her face once again. Kagome watched her suspiciously. Suddenly Sango stopped with the shaking and cackled as she opened the can, sending a fountain of soda into Kagome's face.
"FOOD FIGHT!!!" they called in unison.
*********
Sango laid on one of the beds, almost unconcious as Kagome collapsed on the wrapper and ice-cream covered carpet.
Kagome took a deep breath. "I won that match and you know that." Kagome spoke.
"Iie, we didn't finish yet...." Sango replied.
"Whatcha talkin' 'bout?" Kagome inquired. (Rikku: Remind you of someone?)
"Best two outta three... you only won round 1.." Sango explained.
Kagome groaned. "Not again..."
Sango giggled. "Nah... I got something else in mind..."
"What are you pla- OMFF!" Kagome had just sat up to have a pillow thrown in her face. She glared at her 'friend'. "Are you challenging me?"
Sango stood firmly on the bed. "What if I am?"
Kagome grabbed the pillow Sango had hurled at her, and got up. Suddenly, she charged at Sango with full speed.
~!~THUD~!~
"Why you little!" Sango screeched through clenched teeth.
Soon the girls were at an all out pillow fight.
Sango laughed. "You're so pathetic!" she cried out of amusement when Kagome missed her by an inch. "You're never gon- AHHH!"
~!~ANOTHER THUD~!~
Kagome laughed loudly after she had struck Sango with her pillow, now her friend was on the floor, after falling off the bed, looking as if she had fainted. "What was that you were saying?" she sneered. Looking down to Sango she gulped, the girl wasn't speaking. "Sango? Sango? SANGO-CHAN!?"
Still no answer.
Kagome hopped off the bed and rushed to Sango's side. She shook her friend. "This isn't funny... Sango! Wake up!"
Nothing.
"Sango!!" Kagome pleaded. "Get up! Joke's over.... ha-ha..."
Kagome waited once again for a respond, but nothing came out of Sango's mouth.... she didn't even move.
Kagome stopped her attempt to awaken the girl. "Sango..." she whispered.
.....
.....
.....
.....
"HA! KAGOME, I SOOO GOT YOU! HAHAHAHA!! THAT'S FOR WACKING ME TOO HARD!!" Sango suddenly exclaimed, causing Kagome to jump. "Kagome? What's wrong? I'm ok now... it was only a joke... Kagome? Speak!"
Kagome gritted her teeth together. "Sango..... that.... was..... not..... funny..." she said slowly, glarring daggers at her friend. "Never..... ever..... try.... that..... AGAIN, GOD DAMNIT! I WAS SO AFRAID!!!" Kagome suddenly cried.
Sango didn't speak, a apologetic expression plastered itself on her face. "G-gome- HAHAHA!" she suddenly bursted into laughter, her expression changed to an overwhelmed-with-laughter one. (Rikku: ???)
Kagome stared at her friend in wonder... how did she do it? How did she trick her so easily?
Kagome slowly began to giggle..... she couldn't surpress it and soon, just like a volcano, the two girls arupted... only in this case, into fits of laughter.
*********
"Hey... Kagome, Sango we're back!" called a voice from the door. Slowly the knob turned and two boys walked in confused at the scene before them.
Still on the floor where the chocolate wrappers, but feathers had been added too. Ice-cream was everywhere, a trolley of chocolate, ice-cream and drinks had been flipped upside down. A cd was being played loudly from a boombox and two hyper girls were laughing hysterically on the carpet.
"Er... what happened here?" asked InuYasha, one of the two boys that had walked into the disaster.
The girls didn't answer, they just continued to laugh.
"What the hell happened to you two? AND WHAT HAPPENED TO THE ROOM??" hollered Miroku, the other boy.
The laughter calmed a bit but it was still extreme.
InuYasha ran to Kagome's side and shook her. "Kagome... stop laughing already.... Kagome..."
Miroku locked the door behind him as he attempted to lift the trolley. "Damn thing..." he mumbled.
Slowly, Kagome stopped laughing, though Sango was still at it. She got up with InuYasha's support and took a deep breath. "We had the best time ever... we went high on sugar!" she chuckled.
"I can see that..." InuYasha sighed. "We're gonna have to clean this up, you know."
"I know..." Kagome spoke. "But we couldn't help it! It was so much fun... we didn't expect it to turn into one big mess... gomen."
InuYasha sighed again. "It's alright..." he said, watching Miroku drop the whole trolley. "But... what is this crap playing?"
Sango suddenly bolted up. Her laughter had stopped completely. "This is my favourite 'Gackt' cd playing..." she said through clenched teeth.
"Well can you shut it off?"
Sango glared, but got up to do so. Suddenly the room grew quiet, no one spoke except for an angry Miroku who was stomping around the room mumbling curse words under his breath.
"Well..." InuYasha finally spoke. "You two should start cleaning yourselves and the room, I'm gonna go stop Miroku before he goes 'Godzilla' on us."
"Wait..." Kagome spoke. "How did you two get the key?"
"Oh... ya, well you see..." InuYasha said. "We thought you two would be asleep so we asked the woman at the desk to give us the key to your room."
"And she actually gave it to you?" Sango asked, joining in with the conversation.
InuYasha nodded and walked toward Miroku.
"Well, that just proves how dangerous this place is..." Kagome spoke. "But still so generous! The food was grea- wait...Sango?"
"Hai?" her friend answered.
"That 'little game' you were planning.... was it to get us high?" Kagome asked, already knowing the answer.
"Maybe..." Sango replied, smirking as she left to the washroom, leaving Kagome utterly speechless and shocked.
So the night ended with an almost-sparkling-clean room and InuYasha dragging an angry Miroku out the door... no one even bothered to said 'good-night', but Kagome still had one heck of a great time.
