Disclaimer: Why me? Why must I be forced to give up my one true passion in life? (Whimpers are issuing from InuYashaKagomeLuver as she rocks back and forth) Why me...Why me...-Ack! Jenn! (Jenn is beating her rather savagely with a pillow...)

A/N: You know the drill by now, hopefully. I'm back for a new chapter, but first, a few thank yous and some questions answered...

Darkness-Kitsune: Hmmm...Perhaps you should define sk8ter for me, just so I'm sure, but I think I know where you're coming from. lol. And, yeah, I think she is...

Gotenluver: Even though I've already mentioned you in my bio update, I just want to say thank you again for the advice, I'll keep it in mind from now on. If you see anything else, let me know, k?

pancakes9: Well, in answer to your question, the two guys kinda snuck up on them when all the lights were out. If you've ever been on an overnight flight, the stewardesses turn out most of the lights when alot of the passengers go to sleep. And, technically, yes, at least one passenger had to be awake the entire time, but lets just make it so that they were sitting up front and didn't see the two goons, k?

A lot of you wanted to know who the two idiots were that tried to mess around with Kagome, right? Sorry to disappoint, but they were only two teenage perverts looking for some "fun" on a boring plane ride...Guess they picked the wrong girl, huh? So, here ya go, the third chapter!

Life of a Teenager

Chapter Three: A Shock of a Lifetime (or is it Shocks?)

Entering the waiting area, the Higurashi siblings were immediately assaulted by a wave of people, each looking for their loved ones. Standing still, Kagome decided to test a theory of hers. Glaring at everyone surrounding her, the "don't piss me off" look was in place. Slowly, people around her noticed the look and began to back off, until there was a clear path to the other side of the room. Grinning inwardly, but with a self-satisfied smirk firmly in place on the outside, Kagome grabbed Souta's hand and calmly walked down the path.

Upon reaching the edge of the crush, the two siblings finally noticed a man wearing a uniform (looking suspiciously like the bodyguard type) holding a sign. On it was written one word: Higurashi. Stalking over to the man, still with a firm grip on Souta, Kagome stopped and stared grimly at the man. Without even so much as a word, the man reached for their bags and started walking. Shrugging, Kagome and Souta followed, not speaking either.

Outside the airport, the man walked to a limo waiting directly in front of the entrance. Near the trunk, sitting on the ground, were their suitcases. Kagome raised an eyebrow at this, but continued to say nothing. The man walked to the door and opened it, waiting for them to climb in. Souta smiled for the first time since getting off the plane; this was the first time he had been in a limo, so he was a little excited. Kagome had never been in a limo either, but climbed in after Souta as if she did this sorta thing everyday. Once the ride began, she sat back and looked out the window the entire time, ignoring the driver and Souta. Inwardly, she was amazed at the giant city of Tokyo, but she would never admit it.

Two hours later, they reached the gates to a house. Well, house wouldn't be the correct term. Mansion would be more like it. Kagome and Souta sat back in their seats, shocked beyond mere words. They were gonna live in a MANSION! And a frickin' huge one at that! The limo pulled up to the front door, which opened to reveal a real-live-walking-talking butler. That wasn't all, though. The real kicker was the two maids that followed, along with a bellhop for their bags. Kagome, jaw lodged firmly on the ground, recovered swiftly and adopted an uncaring expression. Walking into the front hall, the shock process was repeated, and Kagome was finding it rather difficult to keep up the uncaring persona.

When everything was calm, and Kagome was finally in her own appointed bedrooms, (A/N: Yes, notice the S at the end. She has a sitting room to go with the room itself!) she lay back on her bed, which was a four poster covered with a dark purple bedspread complete with silk sheets and pillowcases in black. Staring at the ceiling, she sighed and rolled over to her right. Against the far wall was an entertainment system, sporting a widescreen TV, surround sound speakers, DVD/VHS players, and a full supply of all the latest movies. Near the door stood a computer desk with a brand new computer, printer, scanner, and CD burner. Not that she would ever need another CD... Why? Because right next to the bed stood a stereo system, with the latest CDs by all of her favorite bands. Sitting up on the bed, she walked over to her suitcase and finished unpacking all the clothes that hadn't already been unpacked by the over-eager maids before Kagome had shoved them out the door.

Walking into the bathroom, Kagome suffered another shock when she saw the inside. A Jacuzzi was to her immediate right, while a sink (A/N: It has what I affectionately call a "movie star" mirror!) was to her left. Straight-ahead was a shower stall, and after peering in it, she saw it had three showerheads. Leaning against the wall behind her, she shook her head in amazement, then decided to treat herself and sat in the Jacuzzi for an hour. After her soak, Kagome took a shower and got ready for bed.

Walking by the computer on her way to the bed, Kagome made a decision and booted it up. While waiting for it to load, she walked over to the stereo system and put in another favorite, Fe Fe Dobson. Listening to Fe Fe sing about how she was getting rid of her latest boyfriend, she sat down at the computer and watched as an IM program, MSN, popped up. Someone was already logged on. Sending the person an IM, she discovered it was Souta.

GameFreak: Hey sis! It's Souta. I love my room, it's got all the latest games!

Sk8terChic: Yeah, hey Souta. My room's ok, I guess. At least it's got some good CDs...

GameFreak: Kagome, are you a little scared? I mean, that detective guy said that our dad was the one who was gonna take care of us from now on...Do you think we'll see him tomorrow?

Kagome snorted. Yeah, right. If the dude wasn't here to meet them today, it wasn't likely he was gonna see em tomorrow. But she didn't want to hurt Souta's feelings by telling him that.

Sk8terChic: Umm...I don't really know, Souta. If he shows tomorrow, than that's that. If not, oh well, we'll see him some other time...I think we should hit the bed tonight, squirt.

GameFreak: Ok, Kagome, I'll see you in the morning. Good night.

Sk8terChic: Good night, Souta.

Kagome logged off MSN and turned off the computer. Climbing into bed, she sleepily thought about the next day...Maybe living in Tokyo wouldn't be so bad after all...

A/N: And there ya go! The next chapter of Life of a Teenager! Hmmm...wonder if Kagome's gonna regret those last words? Read and review this chapter and I'll put the next one up so you can find out! In addition, thanks for all the reviews guys! So far, all of you guys seem to love my story! I'm so glad! bounces off the walls and around the room until Jenn tackles her and sits on InuYashaKagomeLuver Sorry about that... Guess I need to work out some energy...Maybe I should do that by writing another chapter, you say? Good idea!

P.S. Thanks to Darkness-Kitsune for the idea on Kagome's MSN screen name. Hope you don't mind! - And for those of you who don't know, IM stands for Instant Message. See ya next chapter guys!
