Disclaimer: We have been through this a billion times now, I do not own Inuyasha!

Chapter 12: Festival

"You're telling me at the festival, are you telling Sango too," asked Kagome.

"No of course not," Rin whispered.

"Then how do you plan on getting away from her?"

"It is simple, we go on some rides at the festival. Then I pretend to be sick and say I need to go to the bathroom. After that I ask you where it is and you lead me to it. It is that simple Kagome."

"Wow you must have been planing this for months."

"No, I just now came up with the idea," Rin forgot to whisper the last statement she said.

"What idea," asked Sango.

"Now who is the idiot and let's things slip out easily?"

"Do you want to know or don't you?"

"Yeah Rin I am sorry, you have got to forgive me, by the way did I tell you that you look nice today."

"Kagome, has anyone told you that you suck at sucking up," asked Sango.

"No."

"Then I will be the first, you suck at sucking up Kagome."

"I would like to see you do better."

"I don't need to suck up I am perfect."

"Yeah you are so perfect that Miroku is attracted to you and has to grope you twenty four seven, I would say right about.....

"HENTAI!!!!" SMACK! BOOM! CRASH! BASH! WHACK! BANG!

".....Now"

"Rin did you know that he was right behind me this whole time?"

"I didn't know, really Sango."

"Has anyone told you that you suck at lying Rin."

"No."

"Then I will be the first again, you suck at lying Rin."

"I am not going to be like Kagome and say "like to see you do better" because you will say that you don't lie."

"Of course not." Everyone fell down. "People lie all the time, I only say white lies every now and then."

"Uh Miroku where do you live anyway," asked Kagome.

"Right next to my lovely Sango."

"Sucks to be you," Kagome pointed at Sango laughing.

Sango pulled her boomerang out of nowhere and started chasing Kagome. Kagome ran for her life to her shrine.

"You would think Kagome would learn to keep her mouth shut," commented Rin.

"So Rin is she really an assassin?"

"Hmm?"

"I could sense her energy but I wasn't sure."

"That depends what you mean by is she an assassin."

"Huh? You always say something that makes me confused. That's okay I will find out eventually."

"Yeah eventually."

"Bye Rin."

"Bye." Rin kept walking to her home to see Sango pounding on Kagome's shrine door demanding entrance. Kagome just stood there at the window laughing and sticking her tongue out at Sango. "Sango give it up! See you two at the festival entrance!"

~Festival~ (An- what you would rather have me spend time saying that they got in this clothes and put on this stuff to get ready for the festival?)

"Everyone is wearing casual everyday clothes that is good," commented Sango.

"Of course we are not like Kikyo and put on all this make up and crap," stated Kagome.

"I want a teddy bear! Let's go play that game and knock down those bottles," exclaimed Rin running to the stand.

"Hey wait up," shouted Kagome and Sango.

"Yay I won again," exclaimed Rin because she knocked over the bottles.

"Rin I think you have played this game enough," commented Kagome looking at the mountain of teddy bears in the cart next to Rin.

"No, just one more time."

"No not just one more time, we are leaving to go to some different thing NOW!" Sango grabbed Rin and ran to a roller coaster.

"B-but what about my teddy bears, I won them and by the time I get back they will all be stolen," Rin cried.

"Who would want 256 teddy bears," Kagome pointed out.

"So you think they will be there by the time I go back?"

"Positive, hey this thing says six people per cart, no more, no less."

"What! That can't be right there is no way I am sitting next to you Higurashi!"

"I just have no luck in the world, why is it I am forced to be with Inuyasha wherever I go?"

"Perhaps it is fate," said Miroku.

"I don't think so."

"Hey you six hurry up and get in the cart," said the man.

Miroku sat on the end with Sango next to him, then Rin, then Kagome, then Inuyasha and at the other end Kikyo sat.

"This thing goes way too fast," exclaimed Kikyo. "It is ruining my hair, now it is going to have snarls."

"Would you stop complaining, the ride just started this is slow," stated Kagome.

The roller coaster went into a dark tunnel. No one could see anything.

"Hey get your hands off me Miroku," commanded Sango.

"How do you know it is me?"

"Rin is not lesbian you know."

"Hey stop kissing my neck," exclaimed Kagome.

"I thought you were Kikyo."

"Would you stop already! Hey you are just trying to annoy me!"

"Finally thought you would never figure it out."

"I am not that dumb you know."

"Could have fooled me."

"Inuyashie, this ride is too fast!"

"The ride will be over soon Kikyo."

"Well it is too dark."

"What you afraid, it is not like you are going to die. At least there is not anyone annoying the crap out of you," commented Kagome.

"Who you talking about Kagome," asked Inuyasha innocently.

"Would you get your freaking head off my shoulder!"

"Hey if it were up to me it would be in your lap but the stupid metal thing is in the way."

"Inuyashie you could rest your head on my shoulder."

"Please step out of the vehicle," said the man.

"Great ride, except for one minor detail," Kagome glared at Inuyasha.

"What," asked Inuyasha innocently.

"Uhhh, I feel like I am going to vomit, Kagome be a pal and show me where the bathrooms are," Rin winked.

"But what about the tunnel ride," asked Sango.

"Could go with Miroku," Rin replied.

"Why me," asked Sango as she was led away by Miroku.

"This way Rin," Kagome and Rin walked away.

"The bathrooms are this way Kagome," said Rin pointing the way as soon as they were out of earshot.

"Uh right I knew that."

"Got to make sure no one is in here." Rin looked around and fortunately no one was in the girl's bathroom. She then locked the bathroom and sat down in a chair.

"This going to be a long story? I don't think that you would tell me all of it anyway."

"Well anyway, you know earlier today, when we were all walking home from school. Sesshomaru did something. That doesn't really surprise me with his character though. He saw right through you too and knows about your assassin self."

"Yeah I know he is really sharp."

"You see what happened today though, he stopped the flow of time, it was just me and him. He said something that strikes me odd, though."

"What?"

"He said he was interested in me."

"That could be applied in more ways than one you know," Kagome smiled. "He knows something I don't and maybe he is attracted to you."

"I really don't know, but I will tell you something else about me."

"Oh?"

"Yeah, how I knew what you were thinking, I can read people's minds."

"You mean even now, whenever you wanted to."

"Not exactly, I don't really do it voluntarily, just like my visions. You see I am not in complete control."

"Hah, then you are no different from me!"

"No, I am different alright, I am not an assassin, I have more control over my abilities than you do."

"And you won't tell me what you are?"

"No, not yet. You know before we were talking about Sesshomaru."

"Yeah."

"Don't let Inuyasha fool you either, he isn't the same as me but somewhere along those lines, his abilities are different. I know at school and around you he acts cocky but the real him might be totally different you know. He knows a lot more than he is letting on."

"Are you saying that is why he is messing around with me. To figure out more about me?"

"Oh no, he is just doing that for....well actually I think he likes you."

"Yeah right, he is a player you know."

"He gives you a lot of attention, I am not the only one noticing this you know, Sango, Miroku and even Kikyo. That is why she said he could lean on her shoulder today."

"You analyze things too much."

"You run away from everything too much and can't confront your own feelings too much. Do you like him?"

"No!.....I don't know. My mind often wanders to him, I really don't mind that he was leaning on me at all. Really, it is just the fact that I am afraid."

"Afraid to fall in love. I could say I was just like you, you know. However, I couldn't stop myself, it happened so fast, but I knew the moment it happened. Were you like that?"

~Sango and Miroku~

"Hey we are next let's go Sango," said Miroku. Sango and him got into the little duck and went floating down the river.

"So what do you make of Kagome?"

"I can't really say for sure."

"I don't get it, doesn't she trust us?"

"On the contrary she doesn't want us to find out whatever she has locked up in her past so long ago."

"So you are saying she is an assassin then?"

"I think so. What do you think of Rin?"

"She is energetic."

"That is not what I meant, I think her and Kagome are connected somehow."

"She didn't give any signs."

"Sango....."

"I know, I am naïve to a fault, I like to trust everyone is that so wrong?"

"You can trust them, don't worry."

'Miroku please don't worry about me. I already know about Kagome, a lot about her, that, and the other her. I know a little bit about Rin too but not as much. In fact I think you are the only one who doesn't know about them.'

'Sango, I know a little bit about Rin and a lot more about Kagome and the other her. You are the only one who doesn't know.'

"Miroku, there is something I have to tell you."

"Yeah, there is something I have to tell you too Sango."

"I know about Kagome and Rin," Sango and Miroku said at the same time.

"You knew about them, I thought you were the only one who didn't know," said Sango.

"Yeah I thought the same thing about you," said Miroku.

"Well that was a strange turn of events. Inuyasha and Sesshomaru know a lot too. You know that I come to think about it. I guess it is Rin and Kagome who are being fooled."

"Yeah they think we don't know anything about them."

"Well we did a good job of not letting them know." (An- now I know some of you people didn't think they knew some stuff about Kagome and Rin.)

~Kikyo and Inuyasha~

"Let's go Inuyashie." Kikyo grabbed Inuyasha's hand and went into the swan. She wasted no time, after they were out of eyesight she slammed her lips to Inuyasha.

"Kagome."

"What did you just say?"

"Kikyo."

"At first I thought you said something else oh well."

'Why did I say Kagome? Could I possibly be falling for her? Nah.' ************************************************************************

Like? No like? More reviews please. ^_^ I will be happy and that means you will be happy.

Is Inuyasha finally falling for her? Course we know the answer to that. What is Rin still hiding? What did Inuyasha do a year ago? Will everything turn back to normal now, and how is it that Kagome somehow revived? Was she even really dead? These questions make you think, right?
