Mouse Trap

Chapter 6: Child's play

InuYasha sat on the couch, looked out the window and sighed like a dog would. Once his wife's car was out of sight he stood up and stretched. "I can't believe that woman left me here with all these filthy rodents." InuYasha mumbled to himself. Next thing he knew the floor started to shake. InuYasha ran into the kitchen and grabbed a frying pan from the cupboard and headed towards the basement door. "Come and get me you stupid rats!" InuYasha hollered. Immediately the rumbling got louder and the shaking more violent. It was like the mice knew what he was saying.

Out of nowhere a loud squealing was heard. InuYasha hit the deck and covered his head. The rumbling ended and shaking stopped. Then he finally remembered that it was the girls' school bus. InuYasha stood up and walked towards the front door. As usual he heard Taina's complaining as Sakura opened the door to go in.

"Hi dad...um, what's that?" Sakura said noticing the frying pan in InuYasha's hand.

InuYasha looked down and quickly put his hand behind his back. "OH! Um...it's nothing!"

"Sure..."

"So...how was your guys' day?"

"Oh my gosh! Don't get me started! First of all Alina said that-"Taina started to ramble.

"Shut up!" Sakura barked.

"MAKE ME!" Taina snapped back.

"GIRLS! Sakura don't talk to your sister like that! Anyway, how was your day Sakura?" InuYasha butted in.

"Boring as usual..."

All of a sudden the violent shaking came back and scared the girls.

"DADDY! WHAT'S HAPPENING?!" Taina screamed.

"It's an earthquake dummy!" Sakura said trying to hold onto something.

"It's...um..." InuYasha started.

"It's what?" Both the girls said.

Before InuYasha could explain there was a loud bang and an ocean of mice came seeping from the basement and to where the three were standing.

"OH MY GOSH! MICE! SAVE ME!" Taina screamed jumping onto a nearby couch.

"It's just mice you sissy! And where the hell did all these mice come from?!" Sakura said trying to hit away all the mice with her book bag.

"Um...we have a little mice problem..." InuYasha tried to say while hitting the mice with his frying pan.

"LITTLE! YOU CALL THIS LITTLE?!" Taina screamed again.

"I'll explain later! Just help me get these mice back down in the basement." InuYasha said moving for the basement door.

Sakura nodded her head and began to help her dad. Taina stayed seated on the couch. "C'mon you lazy bum!" Sakura said to Taina.

"NO! These mice are so nasty and there's no way I'm going to touch them!" Taina said turning away from Sakura.

"If you don't help these mice will be here forever!" Sakura said scaring Taina and making her jump.

"Ok...fine! Have it your way! But if I break a nail or something you're gonna b responsible!"

"Whatever..." Sakura rolled her eyes.

"GIRLS!" InuYasha barked.

"Yes dad!" The girls both said trying to move the mice back down in the basement.

"Ok, Taina, you stay by the door and make sure the mice go down and stay down, Sakura, you'll help me gather the mice and throw them back down into the basement. Got it?" InuYasha ordered.

The three started their duties and all seemed to go well. Well, except for Taina. The mice kept jumping around and crawling back up. Taina found a pillow and tried to hit back all the mice. Pretty soon the mice started crawling up her legs and half her body and Taina screamed.

On the other hand Sakura and InuYasha were pretty much done finding and throwing the mice back down in the basement. When they started to rest they heard Taina's ear piercing scream. They ran downstairs to see Taina up to her neck in Mice.

"AHH!!! This is totally gross! Get them off of me!" Taina kicked and screamed. InuYasha and Sakura picked off all the mice and threw them back down into the basement. Once they were all gone all three quickly shut the door and leaned up against it.

"Whew I'm glad that's over." InuYasha said wiping sweat from his forehead.

"Yeah, now you can explain what's going on!" Sakura demanded.

"Ok...well..." InuYasha started to say until there was a heavy banging against the basement door.
