Chapter 3
" Well? " Kagome asked, " Who's turn is it & what did I miss? "

" Well, Inuyasha just freed you by rolling an 8 & as you can see, a lion, monkeys & a monsoon just passed while you were gone. " Sango explained. " Oh... well, since Inuyasha did his turn, it's Shippou's again. This keeps on going until one of ourpieces reach the center of the game, which is the finish! " Kagome said.

" Okay, LADY LUCK, SHOW ME YOUR LOVE! " Shippou said as he rolled the dice. " Who's Lady Luck? " Inuyasha snorted. " Hmmm... maybe you can- "

BASH!

Miroku was cut off by a whack to the head by Sango's Hiraikotsu. " ZIP IT, HOUSHI-SAMA! " She hissed. " BOTH OF YOU, SHUT UP! THE BRAT JUST ROLLED A 10! LET'S SEE WHAT THE MESSAGE SAYS! " Inuyasha interuppted angrily.

Shippou read the message,

In the Jungle, you will find
A beauty more attracting than a lady
But be warned, even the looks can be
Very deadly

" What the hell is THAT supposed to mean? " Inuyasha said, scratching his ear with his foot like a dog would do. " I don't know... but I'm sure we'll find out... " Shippou said. " I don't know what you're talking about! Beauty could NEVER be deadly! " Miroku said with a perverted grin.

WHACK!

" Urusai-mou, Houshi-sama! " Sango yelled with outrage. Everybody rolled their eyes, ' Pervert. ' Suddenly, the cracks in the floorboards of the hut began to sprout with vines, which quicklysprouted into the most beautiful flowers that no one has seen in their lives.

" Beautiful... " Miroku murmured. " For once, I agree with him! " Sango said. " Guys, " Kagome said cautiously, " Get close together. Don't get near those flowers. They're deadly. They can shoot out poisonous barbs... & you REALLY don't want to get near the pods- "

" What pods? " Inuyasha asked. Suddenly, a vine grabbed Shippou by the ankle & was now dragging him along the floor. " KAGOME! TAISUKE! " Shippou practically screamed. " SHIPPOU! " Everyone was now running for him.

All of a sudden, a huge yellow pod bursted out of the ground with a vine in its center. Everybody screamed, even Inuyasha. " OH MY GOD! " Sango, Miroku & Inuyasha yelled. " Wait here! " Sango said & went in front of the pod and cut the vine with a whack from Hiraikotsu, slicing it.

The pod immediately squirmed back into the hole. Everybody collapsed on all 4s, panting in exhaustion. Kagome took a deep breath, " Everybody ready? " Everyone nodded. She rolled the dice & it turned out to be a 9.

Her piece moved by 9 spaces. Kagome read,

You'd better run for cover,
For this blunder is louder than
Thunder

Everybody looked at each other. Sudeenly, the ground & hut began to shake. Kirara began to growl, with her fur stnding on end. Kagome put her ear against the wall. All of the sudden, her eyes shot up in panic & yelled as loud as she could, " IT'S A STAMPEDE! RUN FOR COVER! "

Everybody gave a yelp & ran. Kagome got the game board, folded it & all of them ran out the hut. Suddenly, the wall was run through by elephants, herons, rhinocerous, zebras & antelopes! Everybody in the village gave a scream once they saw all the animals.

Suddenly, Kagome tripped & the board game was in front of her. A pelican flew down to it & flew away with it. " NO! THE BOARD GAME! " Kagome yelled. She suddenly broke into a run, the last thing she heard was a, " YOU WENCH! YOU GET BACK HERE! "

Kagome yelled while shaking her fist at the pelican, " YOU STUPID F#CKING BIRD! GET BACK HERE BOB YOU BIRDBRAIN & LET GO OF THAT FRIKKN' GAME BOARD! "

( A/N;Okay, so the original wasn't named Bob. SUE ME... TWICE! )

Everybody looked at the running Kagome, awestruck at her potty-mouth & the fact that she named a pelican, Bob. They all snapped out of it & all broke into a run. " KAGOME! WAIT FOR US! " Inuyasha yelled.

" NOW YE ALL HAVE TO REALLY PAY MY INSURANCE & FIX MY HUT! AND NO MOCKING CRAPPY ENGLISH DUBBING! " Kaede yelled.
-----------------------------------------------
" Huh? Did you allhear something? " Sango asked. " No, must be the wind. But I can't help thinking I forgot something... hmmmm... something having to do with rent? Insurance? Oh well! Better catch up with Kagome-sama! " Miroku said, shrugging it off as they ran off to find Kagome.
------------------------------------------------
" Come ON, you stupid bird! Give me that game board! " Kagome hissed angrily. In response to this slur, it dropped its head closer to the raging river. " Except for you! You're a genius! " Kagome said quickly, trying to cover up the slur.

" KAGOME! "

" Huh? " Kagome looked back & saw the others. Shippou asked, " What are you- "

" SSSSSSHHHHHHHHHH! " Inuyasha & Sango said. " What's going on? " Shippou whispered. " Kagome's trying to get the game board back from 'Bob. ' "Sango whispered.

" Ooooohhh... " Shippou said. " Come on... come on, nice pelican! Come to mama! " Kagome said, reaching out for it. " Ow! Don't bite me! " The pelican dropped the board game on the stone in the middle of the river.

Suddenly, when Kagome was about to get it, she slipped & she fell in with the board game. " KAGOME! " Everyone yelled. " OH NO! SOMEONE GET THE GAME! " Kagome said, climbing out of the river.

Shippou broke into a dash as he ran towards the end of the river. He climbed on a tree branch & hung upside down, retrieving the game board. Everybody cheered, " YAY, SHIPPOU! "
--------------------------------------------
They were all about to walk towards the village when Miroku said, " Let's play the game out here. I heard the villagers were quite angry with us as we ran for you, Kagome-sama. " Miroku said.

" Good idea... I don't want to see Kaede with a spatula either... " Inuyasha shuddered at the thought.

( A/N;HAHA! That joke never gets old in MY book! Poor boys! )

" Ummm... it's my turn, right? " Sango asked hesitantly. " Yeah... " Kagome handed the dice over to Sango. She rolled the dice which turned out to be a 12. Her piece moved by 12 spaces. Sango read,

These creatures know everything
Their noses can make you say,
BABA-BOOM, BADA-BING!

Everybody blinked, " What the hell? " All of the sudden, the ground began to shake again. Kagome yelled, " ELEPHANTS! " They all yelped one again & ran for the treetops. The elephants made a stampede so huge that it could make Kami jealous.

" Okay, Miroku-sama, your turn! " Kagome said, handing the dice over. He shook the dice & rolled. The dice totalled 5. Miroku's piece moved by5 spaces. Miroku read,

You'd better not move,
For this trap is not smooth
What will become of you?

Everybody looked at each other. Suddenly, Kagome yelled, " LOOK! " Everybody saw that Miroku was sinking into the ground! " Miroku! DON'T MOVE! " Inuyasha yelled. " REMAIN CALM! " Kagome yelled.

" Oh yeah, okay, I'm calm! CALM? I'M ANYTHING BUT CALM! " Miroku yelled. Sango yelled, " I CAN'T FIND ANYTHING TO PULL HIM UP! "

Sango leaned forward & got Miroku's arms. " Miroku! I'll help pull you up! " But it was no use. Miroku was sinking deeper & deeper into the ground. Kirara had enough & pawed the dice, remembering that it was her turn. " What is it, Kirara? " Shippou asked.

He saw the message & read it,

There is a lesson

The ground was up toMiroku's neck now, " HURRY SHIPPOU! " Sango yelled as Kagome & Inuyasha tugged.

That you must learn

The ground was up to the sides of Miroku's face.

Sometimes you've got to go
Back a turn!

The sinking abruptly stopped. The quicksand immediately turned back into soil. " WHEW! " Everybody sighed. " Now the last thing we need is Sango & Miroku being stuck to each other underground! " Inuyasha groaned, slapping his forehead absent-mindedly.

" I'm sure we can work this out! " Kagome said. " Well, I guess it's my turn again! " Inuyasha said, looking at the dice. " I'll go dig them out, you roll! " Kagome said, heading for Sango & Miroku. " Okay! " Inuyasha complied as he rolled the dice.

" 5 is now officially my UN-lucky number. " Miroku said. " You tell me. " Sango said. " Hush up! " Shippou hissed. " Inuyasha's rolling the dice! " Inuyasha read,

In need of help?
Why one hand but 8?

Everybody was puzzled until Kagome screamed.

HAHA! Sorry but I did 4 chapters today! And plus this chapter is LOOOOOONG! Enjoy! Bye! See you all soon!
