Disclaimer: ::sigh:: I don't own anything...
A/N: Okay. I know that last chapter was totally boring, don't you think? Oh, and I'm not gonna use anymore Japanese words in this story, cuz I used a whole bunch in my other story, which has 23 chappies, btw...but I'll still use simple Jap. words like aishiteru, baka, hentai, those wordies...ya. Maybe. Okay, I'll try and make this one more exciting. Last one was boring cough, cough Boring! coughs harder Okay, here I go...Oh, yeah. My best friend, Sarah, otherwise known as Nezumi, is most like Kagome, and I'm just like Sango, so, like, we're a perfect pair of best friends! Yea! Okay. Too hyped up...REASON I DIDN'T UPDATE SOONER: HAD TO GET "AN INUYASHA STORY" FINISHED AND COMPLETE, WHICH IT IS. Okay! That's good! Storytime! Now. Enjoy...please...Oh, yeah. Last names I use for a random character, I don't know if they're real Japanese/Chinese/Korean/etc. last names...
Sango stretched lazily as the sunbeam strolled over her face. She was about to get up from her cot, when she realized that, Kagome suggesting they push the cot against the wall, knowing how she falls off beds in her sleep and gets big bruises having done so. Sango had to sleep on the side against the wall. Now that made absolutely no sense! If Kagome falls off beds in her sleep, why doesn't SHE sleep on the side closest to the wall?
She shrugged to herself, and stepped carefully over the sleeping miko, and hopped onto the floor. She peeked through the crack of the guys' bedroom door, and saw them asleep, drool dripping from the mouths, and sprawled across each other, pressed against the wall. I stifled a laugh by stuffing my fist inside my mouth, and ran down to my kitchen.
"So hungry..." she mumbled as she opened cupboard doors and peered through the shelves and in the refrigerator.
"I see you're awake, Kagome..." Sango said as she heard Kagome tip-toeing downstairs.
"Yup." Kagome yawned. She opened a banana and screamed as she threw it to the floor. "Eeww!"
"What is it, Kagome??" Sango questioned.
"It's...got...SPOTS!"
Sango sweat-dropped.
"Yeah, that's what HAPPENS to bananas when they're left out for a week..."
"Ew."
"Oh my gosh, Kagome!" Sango laughed. "I can see that you hate bugs...but spotted bananas?"
"Hey, it could happen,"
"Yeah. Whatever."
"Hey, wanna wake up the guys?"
"Ooh, grab me that buck, Kagome. We're gonna give them a wake-up call..." Sango smirked.
"Ooh, they're gonna hate us...!"
"I know! Let's do it!" Sango snuck up the stairs, followed by Kagome, and slowly opened the door. Kagome gave Sango a lift, who placed the pail of ice-cold water on top of the door frame.
"Okay, let me back down," Sango whispered.
"Quick! Let's get outta here!" Kagome whispered back, and they fled to Sango's bedroom, and locked the door.
A few hours later, Sango and Kagome could hear Miroku and InuYasha waking up. Sango picked her cat Kirara up, and placed the cream-colored cat on her lap, petting its ears. Kagome held Shippou up on her shoulder. He had fallen over on his side, laughing hysterically, as Sango had told him what they had done to the boys, as Kagome tried to calm him down.
"They are SO gonna get it..." Kagome giggled. "Sure the door is locked?"
"Positive." Sango answered.
"Good. And let the games begin..."
Outside their door, InuYasha opened the door, and stepped out into the hallway with Miroku, not knowing that they had released a prank on themselves, thanks to their conniving girlfriends.
"Grrrr, KAGOME!" InuYasha exploded, his hair matted to his face with sopping water.
"Sango..." Miroku growled to himself. "Ah, must not get mad. Peace, silence, tranquility...peace, silence, and...tranquility..."
"Miroku, stop that damn mumbo-jumbo charisma-whatchamacallit junk, and help me unlock their door!!!"
Inside Sango's bedroom, Sango helped Kagome climb up on top of her wardrobe, that almost touched the ceiling. Luckily, there was enough room for them to squeeze into. As soon as InuYasha knocked the door down, they embraced each other and shrieked.
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!" before Sango clapped a hand over their mouths. She pushed Kagome's head down against the wood paneling, and ducked down herself.
"Kagome...you are SO gonna get it..." InuYasha hissed.
"Now, now, InuYasha. You must not get angry with them."
"Oh, why not? They just poured us down with freaking ice-cold water!! And I can't get MAD? Oh, yeah, that's right. I'm not mad...I'm FURIOUS!!!"
"Sit." Kagome whispered to herself, and InuYasha thumped against the ground. InuYasha decided to behave himself, and sat there like a "good little doggy".
Sango climbed down from the wardrobe, hands behind her back, and she stepped up to Miroku, who was still trying to dry off his shirt. She squeaked a "sorry," and a "I'll never do that again," and wrapped her arms around him tightly.
"Now, back to business. We still need to find out how we're going to save ourselves." Miroku said.
"SOMEBODY'S got to know!" Kagome whimpered.
"Don't look at me!" Sango grumbled.
"Do we need to lock you two up in the closet again?" InuYasha growled.
"Eep, no!" Sango and Kagome cried at once.
"Then shut up if you don't wanna! You're givin' me a freakin' headache! Geez..."
"Don't make me 's' word you then, Inu..." Kagome warned, jabbing her finger in the direction of the sacred necklace around his necklace.
"You wouldn't dare..." he moaned.
"Si—"
"O-kay. We don't need that..."
Sango was busy ignoring the arguing couple, who were really flirting in a strange way by fighting, continued to search through newspaper articles.
"Where is it, where is it, where is it...?" she murmured to herself, tossing old torn-up articles in the garbage. When she was about to throw one away that was torn straight down the middle, she stopped. There was something familiar about this newspaper...
In the middle of the front page were two pictures: a totaled care on the side of the highway downtown with one passenger inside, who died from the impact, which was assumed. The victim of the crash was a teenage girl from the United States, Cindy Rowley, who had left her house in the middle of the evening when her parents forbid her not to. Sango knew because it said that later in the article, which was including an interview with the victim's parents.
The second picture was of a lake near one of the national parks far, far off from Sango's school. A picture of a boy of about the age nineteen, Brad Warner, who was also from the United States, or so lay sprawled on the sandy beach, and a few spectators surrounding him. A police line crossed the edge of the water, not admitting passage for others. The drowned boy had jumped off from one of the high cliffs...
Sango suddenly gasped.
"We have to go see these teenagers' parents NOW!" she insisted.
"Wha—Sango, what are you talking about?"
"I'm talking about maybe something that could help us find out the mystery behind all this! C'mon!"
"Yes, ma'am. You wouldn't mind if we could speak to you for a minute? Erm, about Cindy,"
Cindy's mother sighed sadly, and nodded her head, opening the door for Sango and the others to enter.
"Okay, everyone," Sango said as they left Cindy's house and ran down the walk. "Her mother said that Cindy had told her mother she was going to a party and they were going to see "some movie everyone's been talking about", which you all know is the tape we saw. Then a week later, after Cindy had seen the tape, she left during the middle of dinner after looking at the clock, and drove off to the highway, where she crashed and, well, died. You know the story. All we have to do now is Brad Warner's parents."
As Sango brought in her car for everyone to get in, Kagome happened to see a poster of a missing girl of about the age 13. Underneath the girl's picture was an inscription in big, bold letters, MISSING: REIKO HARUKO. She had black hair pulled back in the Japanese fashion with the chopsticks, and had brown eyes.
"Thank you for your time, Mr. and Mrs. Warner." Kagome bowed as everyone left the Warners' residence.
"It was practically the same thing with Cindy..." Miroku noted. "They both left to go to the same "party" to watch the tape together. Same thing happened to Brad a week later when he got up from the table and said he was going for a walk...Ten minutes before 7:48 PM, the time he died—"
"—And Cindy left ten minutes before 7:48, too!" Sango interrupted, trying to piece things together.
"They have a connection," Kagome added.
"Feh. This is a waste of my time." InuYasha murmured.
"And your life, too, InuYasha? We've only got a few more days! It's already DAY FOUR!!"
"Feh. I don't care," he scoffed.
"Yeah, well, I got news for you. I DO!" With that, Kagome stormed off to Sango's house, and Sango could only watch, feeling helpless. Sango knew all about Kagome's love for InuYasha. It was easy to tell. That's why she felt so helpless about Kagome getting mad when InuYasha upsets her.
'We're getting so close to figuring everything out! Oh, I hope we have plenty of time left...' Sango thought anxiously.
Hey! I actually got this chapter uploaded! Wow, it's a miracle...Well, I hope no one forgot about this, like I sorta did...Oops, didn't say that. ::cough, cough:: Anyways, hope you liked!
