The week flew by in no time at all, and suddenly the third years found themselves facing the day they never wanted to come. Sunday. They had all packed the night before and gone t bed early seeing as the bus left at 6 am. It would be almost a full days bus ride to the camp. Luckily the school had gotten a coach bus instead of a cheese can (A/N: A normal yellow school bus for anyone who couldn't figure it out. My histoy teacher called it that and now i call them that. its a great term. very appropriate) so they would have the luxury of comfortable seats.
At 6am, the students made their way onto the bus sleepily and took their seats. Sango, Kagome and Ayame took up three seats at the back of the bus. Sango and Kagome in one row (there were for seats in a row, but they were separated into pairs by the isle)while Ayame took a seat infront of them. Ayame fell asleep instantly, while Sango and Kagome started talking. Inuyasha and Miroku sat down on the oposite side of the isle from Sango and Kagome, Ginta and Hakkaku managed to get the two seats infront of them, forcing Kouga to sit beside Ayame. Once the bus was loaded, it took off down the road. Everything was fairly quiet. Most students had followed Ayames example and gone to sleep. It seemed that only Sango, Kagome, Kouga, Miroku and Inuyasha were still awake. It only took a half an hour for Kouga and Inuyasha to start arguing. Kouga was yelling at Inuyasha about something he had done during the week when Sango smaked the back of his head.
"What the hell was that for?" Kouga snapped at the very annoyed looking girl who had just smacked him very hard on the back of his head.
"Shhh!" She hissed raising a finger to her lips and pointing at Ayame beside him, who looked like she was about to wake up.
"Oh," he said as he turned to face the front. He listened as the two girls whispered behind him. The was a sudden squeal and what sounded like a very very evil laugh.
"Kouga?" Kagome asked tapping him on the shoulder.
Kouga turned in his seat to look at the girl. She had a very smug look on her face. "What?" He asked suspiciously.
"Can I switch seats with you for a bit?" She asked smiling as sweetly as possible but still looking very very guilty.
"uh... sure... why?" He asked, looking a bit confused.
"No reason, I just wanna... uh" The smug little smile she had been wearing a few seconds ago had returned. "Sit beside...Ayame... for a minute..."
"o...k..." He said standing up and letting Kagome take his seat as he sat down beside Sango who looked like she was about to explode into a major giggle fit.
Kagome looked at the sleeping Ayame for a moment then stuck her hand between the seats and motioned for Sango to hand her something. Sango took a small round bag out of her duffle bag and placed it in Kagomes hand and began smile very evily. Miroku and Inuyasha were now eyeing them suspiciously, Kouga was looking curiously between teh seats to see what Kagome was doing. Kagome opened the bag Sango had given her to reveal its overflowing contents. It was full of all types of make-up. Kagome tok out some very dark pink blush and a brush. She took a as much blush as she could fit on the brush and put on Ayames pale cheeks. Kouga raised an eyebrow as Kagome and Sango lost the battle they had been fighting and began giggling like mad. Ayame scrunched up her face as Kagome applied the brush. She sneezed and every one fron (by everyone I mean Sango and Kagome) but she simply went on sleeping which made the two girls giggle even louder.
Next Kagome took out some eyeliner, but shook her head and mummbled something that sounded suspiciously like 'I'll save that for later' and placed it back in the bag. She took out som ruby red lipstick and grinned from ear to ear. She opened it up and twisted the container to push the lipstick up. She leaned over and put a big round cirle on Ayames nose. Ayame Tried to move her face away from whatever was touching her nose which only made Kagome draw a long line across her very rosy cheek. Kagome snorted and looked at Sango who was in tears from laughing so hard. The boys were still confused as to why they were doing this to their friend.
Now Kagome picked up some black eyeshadow. She opened it up and put several layers around Ayames eyes, making her look like a rackoon... with very rosy cheeks and a red nose. Finally, Kagome picked up the eyeliner she had put away earlier and wrote 'Surprise!" across her friends forehead.
Kagome closed the bag and stood up to switch places with Kouga again. Once back in her original seat, Kagome handed the make-up bag back to Sango, who put it away.
"Why-" Kouga began but was cut off by a low groan. He looked over at Ayame. She was finally waking up. His eyes shot open in horror as Ayame rubbed the sleep out of her eyes.
Ayame pulled her hands away from her face and opened her eyes fully. She gasped in shock as she looked at her hands that were darkened with some black powder. She looked at the window, which doubled as a mirror and let out a small scream. Slowly, very slowly, she turned around to face her two best friends. The both pointed at each other. Kagome didn't wear make-up, this Ayame knew for sure, so this meant that it was Sango's make-up. But the writing on her forehead was definatly Kagomes. This meant one thing. They had planned this together. Her eyes narrowed. Kagome and Sango gasped in horror at the death glare they were getting, knowing what was about to happen. Suddenly, like a flash of light Ayame bolted over her seat and attacked her two friends before anyone could stop her.
An hour and a half later....
Ayame was sitting in her seat with a very red face (she had used water from a waterbottle and some kleenex to wash of the make-up. she had had to rub very hard to get it off, hense the red face) her nose in the air, ignoring her two friends who were nursing several of their bruises and bitmarks they had received. It had taken one full hour, several suspention threats, two bottle of water, three rulers and one very heavey duffle bag, but the teacher, with the help of the three boys, had managed to get the furious Ayame off of her friends and back into her seat. Not before she could beat them to satifaction though.
"Wow, Ayame, you actually broke skin!" Sango said nursing her bleeding wrist. Ayame turned and glared at her friend as if daring her to provoke her yet again. Sango ducked low in her seat, Kagome winced and the boys all shudder. Yes the glare was that bad. Sango may have been strong but Ayame was ready to kill, and even Sango couldn't take a murderous Ayame. Ayame would never sleep on a bus again, that was for sure.
Some time that after noon...
"Attention all students, we will be arriving at the camp in one hour. I repeat one hour. Thank you." The teachers voice came from the small sound system aboard. Every one cheered, they would be glad to get off the hell hold that was the bus.
Miroku had been trying to convince the girls to play truth or dare with Inuyasha, Kouga and himself (not that Kouga or Inuyasha had wanted to play) but they declined insisting that they had better things to do. Ayame was listening to her walkman which was playing her Evanescence CD and absent mindedly playing a mock piano on her lap to the tune. She was completely off in her own world. Sango had pulled out a YM magazine she had bought when they had stopped for luch at a rest stop. Kagome was the only one who had lied. She had nothing to do. So she took it upon herself to try and convince both Inuyasha and Kouga to let her do their hair. Neither of them agreed, so she took out a notbook and began to draw something. She tore out the page and crumpled it up and began to write something, but crumpled it up aswell and began to draw. this cycle repeated until Sango got so annoyed that she took away Kagomes notebook and shove the YM magazine into her hands. Sango then took out her cd player and listened to a mixed CD. Finally, at 5 pm, The bus stopped in a driveway that lead to a valley that was completely surrounded by forest on all sides.
The students filed out of the bus and stretched. It felt nice to be able to stand. They headed towards a tall, young man who looked like he was about 24. He was wearing a dark green muscle shirt with the camp logo on it and black jogging pants. The shirt showed off both his large (but not too large) muscles and his nice tan. He had short, spikey jet black, ebony hair and feirce brown eyes that made most of the girls gasp. He was very handsome and sent all of the girls into a frensy making sure their hair was right and their make-up was ok. He had a younge woman standing beside him. She was a good head shorter than the man. She had chin length, sandy coloured hair that was pulled back into two pigtails just behind her ears. She had dark emerald green eyes that were enhansed by the smimmery green eye shadow she was wearing. She to was wearing a dark green muscle shirt (or tank top) and black shorts. She was holding a clip board in one arm and a pencil in her hand.
"Alright," the woman said with cheery smile. "Is everyone hear?" she looked around to see if there were any students away from the group, but there were none. "Great! My name is Tamiko, this (she pointed to the guy beside her) is Riku. We will be your instructors. In a few moments we will split up in to two groups, boys and girls, and we will show you to your cabins. But befor we do that there are a few ground rules. 1- No girls in the boys cabin, same go for the guys. 2- No food fights in the lodge. and 3- No wandering off into the woods until you are sent out on Wednesday. Are those simple enough? Good!" She said not giving anyone a chance to say anything. "Ok so lets split. Girls with me, Guys with Riku."
The class split up, and followed the indicated instructor. The Girls followed Tamiko to a cabin on the right side of the feild. The boys could be seen going towards on on the opposite side. She opened the door and let the girls in. The cabin was huge! They had a small living room, no TV but it had chairs and a table and a fire place. To the left of the living room was a gigantic washroom that had several showers, one extra large jucussi that could probably fit 10 people in it, 5 stalls and a wall of mirrors and sinks. It was sparkling clean too. If you went up the stairs in the living room you'd go into the bedroom. It had about thirty beds in it. And there was a small bathroom in the corner, just incase you needed to go in the middle of the night. Ther was another fire place up hear aswell. The school really know how to pick the camps!
"Ok girls, I'll give you all about half an hour to get settled in and washed up before I take you up to the lodge for dinner." Tamiko said, smiling at the girls reaction to the cabin. She went down stairs and left.
"Ohmygosh!" Ayame said throwing herself onto one of the beds right next to the fire place. Sango and Kagome too the bed next to hers.
"This place is amazing!" Kagome squealed. "Did you see the bathroom!?! it was so nice!"
"And big...very big." Sango said smiling uncontrolably. None of them could beleive their luck. This cabin nearly made up for the two days and three nights they'd be spending in the woods.
At the boys cabin...
"Get it away!" Miroku said standing on his bed.
"Oh please! It's just a bug!" Inuyasha said slamming a shoe on the cocroach.
The boys cabin was no wear near as nice as the girls. It's bathroom was pretty gross, though almost identical to the girls just very very dirty. When the boys got up stairs they were horified to learn that it was indeed, infested with cocroaches and spiders. Riku had apologized before leaving saying that the last goup had left it that way and the cleaning staff had gone on strike after dealing with the girls cabin and the exterminator couldn't get there until tomorrow. This did not please the guys in any way. They had to spend the night in a messy, insect infested cabin. No, they were not pleased one bit.
At 6am, the students made their way onto the bus sleepily and took their seats. Sango, Kagome and Ayame took up three seats at the back of the bus. Sango and Kagome in one row (there were for seats in a row, but they were separated into pairs by the isle)while Ayame took a seat infront of them.
