Chapter 10: Candy Power!
After a month of college, the gang finally got the hang of all the homework.
"Sweet, tomorrow is Halloween!" Miroku chirped. "Let's see, tomorrow is a Saturday and the teachers actually let us HAVE A BREAK!"
His three friends nodded.
"ATTENTION ALL STUDENTS!" a person shouted through the intercom.
Everyone in the hallway covered their ears.
"FOR HALLOWEEN, WE'RE GOING TO HOLD A LITTLE GAME," Ms. Kaede's voice continued. "TOMORROW, ON HALLOWEEN, MEET AT THE TRACKS AT 8:00 P.M. IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE!"
*****Tomorrow-er-at the tracks at 8:00 P.M.*****
"Wonder what kind of crazy game the withered crone came up with," Inu Yasha mumbled.
"YASHIE!" a voice shouted behind him.
He jumped and stiffly looked behind him, "N-no. N-not the SLUT!"
Kikyo skipped towards him and clobbered him in a hug before he could get away.
"You're going to participate in the game too?" she cooed. He pushed her away.
"DON'T EVER TOUCH ME AGAIN!" he hollered.
She just skipped off again.
"Ugh, after this, I'm going to have to take another shower," he growled as he dusted himself off.
"Welcome to 'Cat and Mouse, the Halloween version'!" Ms. Kaede exclaimed into a microphone.
"Cat and Mouse, the Halloween version?" Inu Yasha snorted. "What a pathetic name."
Sango and Miroku came up to him.
"Kagome's rooting for all three of us," Sango smiled. "So do your best. We don't want her to get a sore throat from screaming, now do we? Especially if we lost and her cheering was put to no use."
They laughed.
"Actually, I hope she does get a sore throat so we don't have to listen to her constant yapping," Inu Yasha chuckled.
*PUNCH*
"I heard that!" Kagome sniffed behind him. "Really, Inu Yasha. Sometimes, I think you're not fit to be my boyfriend! You better win, Yashie!"
With that said, she stomped off.
A vein popped in his forehead, "Say that again!"
"Yashie!"
"I dare you to come and say that in my face!" he hissed. She strolled over to him.
"I said Yashie," she glared at him.
"Grr," he scowled. "Wench."
"Bastard."
"Bitch."
"Dog-turd."
"Asshole!"
"Mutt!"
"Okay, stop it you two!" Miroku stood between them and crossed his arms. "We're supposed to have fun tonight."
"Fine, see ya later," Kagome 'humph'ed and walked away.
"Geez," Miroku stared after her. "Kagome is really grouchy today, isn't she?"
When no one answered, he turned his head to look at his friends..only to find that they weren't there.
Miroku pouted, "Hey!"
*****
"Here are the rules: At the starting line, there will be 1 line of people (that are all spreaded out along the line). When we blow the whistle, the people along the line will run with their small sack of candy toward the finish line. There is a catch though: another line of people will be blocking your way in the middle of the track, so you have to make your way through them. If they are able to steal your sack away from you, they are given the privilege to run to the finish line themselves. However, you can steal back your bag or steal a different bag from somebody else. People that hold a sack of candy when they pass the finish line will get to keep the candy. The first person who reaches the finish line will get five more extra sacks. Got it?" Ms. Kaede instructed.
"YES!" the contestants shouted back.
"Alright, people along the starting line, please go get a sack of candy from the teachers over there."
*****
Sango happily picked up a bag and eyed it hungrily.
"Great, now I'm hungry for candy," she whined.
"Then pass the finish line with a bag and you'll get some," Miroku said beside her. He picked up a bag himself and weighed it in his hand. "I wonder if all the bags have the same amount of candy in them.."
*****
Inu Yasha sighed with boredom.
"This is going to one hell of a nightmare," he yawned.
"Hey, mutt!" a voice exclaimed.
Inu Yasha winced and turned around.
"You haven't changed one bit, wimpy wolf!" he sneered back at the person.
Kouga rolled his eyes, "Oh, shut up! I was only joking."
He shifted his view to Inu Yasha, "This is going to be really easy for the both of us, huh?"
Inu Yasha snorted back in reply.
Kouga smiled slightly, "I thought so."
They took their place at the starting line.
"Wanna race?" Kouga asked mischievously.
"Sure," Inu Yasha answered back. He paused and then smirked. "But you know I'll beat you."
"No way in hell!"
"Oh, yeah? Just watch."
*****
"On your mark, get set, GO!" Ms. Kaede blew the whistle.
Kouga and Inu Yasha dashed off. Sango and Miroku followed behind them. Kikyo was trampled immediately by the other competitors (hehe-I just HAD to add that).
"What are those two doing?" Sango groaned. "RACING?!"
"It looks that way," Miroku observed. They shook their head and both thought, 'We're not going to be the first ones at the finish line.'
The second line of people came into view. Inu Yasha and Kouga prepared themselves.
"Here we go," Inu Yasha grinned. "Think you can get past them without getting beat up?"
"Yeah, can YOU?" Kouga shot back.
They sped up and sprinted closer to the line of people.
"NOW!" a girl screamed.
The line diminished into particles as all the people ran towards them.
A boy made a grab for Inu Yasha's bag.
"Get away from the bag, moron!" Inu Yasha hissed and jabbed the boy in the stomach. The boy choked and fell to his knees.
"SORRY!" Inu Yasha shouted and continued running.
Kouga soon caught up to him.
"Stupid girls!" he growled. "Messing with my hair!"
Inu Yasha laughed, "What'd they do? Yank it?"
He growled again in reply.
After a few more 'run-in's, the two boys had cleared their way.
"See you at the finish line!" Inu Yasha smirked and then ran ahead.
"Not if I can help it!" Kouga snarled and quickly caught up to him.
The two boys glared at each other.
"Go, Kouga, go!" Kagome yelled in the distance in front of them.
"KAGOME!" Inu Yasha roared.
"WHAT?!" she thundered back.
"Why the heck are you rooting for HIM?!"
"Because I CAN!" she stuck out her tongue.
"WENCH!" he hollered as they passed her.
"BASTARD!"
Inu Yasha just ignored her.
'There's the finish line,' he thought with a smile. 'Only a few yards away.'
*****
Sango jumped in glee.
"There it is! The finish line!" she chirped. Someone had already stolen Miroku's bag and now, he was chasing after the person and also looking for another bag that he could steal. When she passed Kagome, she smiled at her friend when she heard, "Go, Sango! Beat the boys!"
"I'll try!" she had shouted back.
..
Sango smiled, "I'll try."
She focused on the finish line and then spotted the five extra sacks of candy that would be given to the first person that reached the finish line.
"Whoa! That's a LOT of candy!" she squealed. "It looks so YUMMY too!"
Her mouth began to water and she squealed even more, "Must-have-CANDY!"
*****
'Almost there!' both boys thought.
None of them were ahead of each other.
"Give up!" Kouga gritted.
"Not while I live!" Inu Yasha shot back.
They sped up even more.
'I am NOT going to be beaten by this wolf!' Inu Yasha swore to himself. He blinked when he heard a squeal.
"Huh? Who's that?" he took a glimpse behind him. Sango hyperactively ran towards them at unimaginable speed. "What the-"
She leapt over him with a giggle.
He slowed down to a walk, "Is she..okay?"
*****
Kouga snickered, "Ha. I outran the dog-turd!"
He winced when he heard a loud squeal.
"CANDY!" Sango chirped. She leapt over him quickly and passed the finish line. "I WON! YAY! I GET THE CANDY!!!"
He sweat-dropped, "Yippee.."
*****
Kagome bit into a chocolate bar and chewed cheerfully. They had just returned to their dorm.
"I knew you would beat the boys!" she giggled. "Now that's what I call girl power..or candy power!"
Sango beamed at her best friend, "Well, your cheering helped me too."
"Humph! Gi~rls," a voice snorted at the doorway. "The wench's cheering didn't help you one bit..only the CANDY did."
Inu Yasha stood at the door, clutching an unconscious Miroku's arm.
"Miroku!" Sango gasped. She stood up and ran to her boyfriend. "Miroku!"
"Sa-Sango?" he murmured. His eyes flew open when she hugged him.
"Are you okay?" Sango asked with worry.
"Yeah," he chuckled back nervously. "Even though I was trampled by a few people."
She hugged him tightly, "You, dolt! You should've gone after my bag of candy."
"But Sango."
"What?"
"If I did, you would've outrun me anyway."
She pulled back and laughed, "Oh, yeah. I guess I would've."
*****
Sango guided Miroku back to his dorm, leaving Inu Yasha and Kagome alone.
An awkward silence passed between them.
"Well, um, you did well," Kagome finally said. "I'm impressed that you were ahead of Kouga."
"Sure.." Inu Yasha sneered.
"What?" she blinked.
"What?!" he repeated. "You ask what?!"
He turned and faced her, "I'll tell you what! You rooted for HIM! He's not your boyfriend, Kagome!"
Kagome's mouth twitched into a sly smile, "You aren't jealous, are you?"
He growled, "Of course not! Who would be jealous of that wolf?!"
She came up to him and gave him a peck on the cheek, "You. For goodness sake, Inu Yasha! I was just trying to have a little..fun with you. Don't get all upset from a little cheering."
Inu Yasha looked away stubbornly. Sango entered the room again and then plopped down onto her bed.
"Okay, Inu Yasha," Kagome sighed tiredly. "Get out. I want to go to sleep."
"Fine, good night," he turned to leave.
"Good night to you too," she laughed and shoved him out the door.
"Hey!" Inu Yasha pouted.
"I'll see you tomorrow," Kagome winked and slammed the door in his face.
