Disclaimer: I may have transformed at least 6 people into over-obsessed InuYasha fans but I do not own the point of my obsession.
IM SOOOOOOOOOOOOO SORRY THAT I HAVEN'T UPDATED IN THE LONGEST WHILE! BUT IT'S SPRING BREAK NOW AND I CAN FINALLY TYPE! I just have to stay focused for long enough. I'm playing japanese music right now to inspire me.
:sweatdrops and scratches head: Sorry bout not sticking to my regular plan of updating regularly but I had mager writer's block. Then, I had a break and wrote almost half of the chapter in my notebook. Then I lost my notebook. I've been in a writing slump ever since. slumps
neeways, I'll shut up and type the chappie now!

Chapter 3
Kagome sat on the bare mattress of her bed. Her bedroom walls were bare of their posters, her wardrobe and closet empty of clothes, her bookshelves and their books gone, the various trinkets that had once decorated her room were not there. All of it had been packed into four huge boxes that were crowding around her bedroom door.
Buyo was stretched lazily beside where Kagome was sitting, greatly enjoying the trance-like stroking of fur he was receiving from his master. Her eyes were half-shut as they starred around the blank room. Which is understandable seeing as she hadn't had any sleep in the past 30 hours.
Kagome opened her eyes fully and looked through the crack of her half-closed door, the soft thwacking of rubber against wood catching her attention. Kioru and Pan ran past her door, arms outstretched to the bouncing red ball they were chasing down the hall. They ran past her door again, the ball still bouncing out of their grasp, and Kagome vaguely wondered how it was possible. Kagome raised her eyebrows as, yet again, they ran past her door.
This time, there was a giggle and a small cheering as the ball was caught.
"Catch!" Kioru's voice floated from down the hall. Following it was the hiss of the ball sailing through the air, the panting of Pan, running to catch it, and then a loud crash. The ball had missed its intended target (Pan) and had hit something else (a random glass vase).
Kagome pushed herself off her bed and opened her door a bit more to be able to peer down the hall. Seeing her head, Kioru squeaked and ran to lock himself in his room, yelling about evil flying monkeys and a witch.
'Oh, yeah, now that one isn't guilty at all ... ' Kagome sighed and walked up to Pan-pan, who was starring at the pile of shattered glass with his index finger hanging from his mouth. The toddler turned to look at her and exclaimed, "Bwoken!" as he clutched his teddy bear tighter to him. It was an adorable image.
Kagome smiled and laughed happily, it being quickly stifled into giggles. She picked Pan up and bounced him up and down in her arms. He was very small for his age. She tapped his nose with a finger and said, "Very much so!"
Pan blinked a bit at Kagome, then looked back down at the mess. "Cwean?" (pronounced 'Queen')
Kagome chewed on her lip for a bit. 'To clean or not to clean ... that is the overused cliché phrase ... ' She shook her head and chirped, "Later, let's go pack up your stuff, 'kay?"
Pan's eyes brightened as he cheered and waved his teddy around, ready to start randomly throwing things into boxes. He pointed towards his bedroom door. "Aw-ward, Howsee!" He paused and thought. "Pweez?"
Kagome giggled and 'neigh'ed, pawing at the ground with her left leg.

(A/N- that part was written a few days ago. Last night I was up until 1 reading fanfics. My brain has temporarily left me to go crawl to a dark corner and sleep. The next parts may not be as good as above.)
Kanami drew soft circles on her mattress as she listened to the ringing on the other end of the phone-line. The ringing was interrupted by a soft click and an equally soft voice saying, "Moushi moushi, this is the Takeru residence. Who is speaking?"
Kanami rolled onto her back and answered politely, "It's Kanami, Takeru-san. Can I speak to Tomo-chan?"
The voice on the other line brightened. "Of course Kanami! I'll go get her."
Kanami stared at the ceiling, listening distantly to the sounds coming from the phone. She was going to tell Tomo-chan that she was moving and ask her to tell everyone else. It would take too long to phone them all and Kagome would notice the phone was gone.
'If only Mom had bought me that cell ... ' Kanami stopped and shook her head. 'Stupid, selfish, stupid, stupid, stupid, stup'
"NAMI-CHAN!" Kanami jumped at the sudden blast of noise from the receiver and dropped the phone. She scrambled after it and sat cross-legged, pressing it to her ear again.
"Hey Tomo-chan!"
"What causes you to call me on this fine Sunday morning?"
Kanami laughed sadly. "Not so fine news."
There was uncomfortable silence from Tomo-chan. "What kind of not-so-fine news?"
Kanami took a deep breath, preparing for the aftermath. "I'm moving to Tokyo."
There were two thumps, one heavier than the other, and silence.
"Tomo-chan? TOMO-CHAN?"
Tomo-chan's mother's voice came back on. "What did you say? She's fainted!"
Kanami blinked. "Fainted?"
"You know what? I'll just get her to call you back when she wakes up."
"No, that's OK, just tell her to email me and that I said 'bye'."
"OK then, Kanami. Bye."
"Ja ne."
Kanami listened to the dial tone for a bit, then shut off the phone. Tomo-chan had taken it way worse than she'd expected. She'd expected screaming and crying because they'd been best friends for the past 5 years, but she wasn't prepared for her to faint. Kanami shrugged and dialed another number. Maybe Yuki-chan would take it better.
"Moushi moushi, Keshi house. Yukito speaking."
"Hey Yuki-chan!"
"Oh, hey Nami-chan."
"Tired?"
"Just a bit ... " Kanami could practically see the exasperated look on her friend's face.
"I just told Tomo-chan something and she is currently indisposed. I trust you'll be able to handle it better?"
"Spill it." Yuki-chan's amusement was heard in her voice.
"I'm moving to Tokyo."
"HOW THE HELL DID THAT HAPPEN?"
Kanami sighed. "At least you didn't faint."
"WHEN ARE YOU LEAVING? HOW COME I DIDN'T HEAR ABOUT THIS BEFOREHAND?"
"We're leaving in about ... oh ... three hours. And you didn't hear about this before because we were just ordered to move about 5 hours ago by a government official."
There was silence again. "OK, tell me what you did and why you didn't ask me to help."
Kanami laughed. Good old Yuki-chan. "I didn't do anything! You'll find out what happened if you watch the 6 o'clock news. I swear I saw a few camera crews around."
"But it's so boring! Whatever ... can I come over and help you pack?"
"Sure."
"'Kay, be right there ... see ya!"
"Bye!"
Kanami looked around her room. Her clothes had been all packed but the posters that had been on her walls were scattered on her floor like a mismatched carpet. She really did need Yuki-chan's help.
The brown-haired teenager pushed herself off her bed and stretched, grunting as she heard a pop. She straightened her crinkly white tee-shirt and flecked-white grey sweatpants and headed out the door and down the hall.
