Ch2; SHOPPING! Part1
Inuyasha, Shippo and Miroku climbed out of the well to find the girls waiting for them. They helped each other out of the well, and when they were all together Kagome reached for the shrine door, which was closed. She held on to the handle and looked eagerly at her friends." Are you guys ready? Welcome…" she slid the door open "… to the future!"
Everyone in the shrine stepped out into the snow, which was like a soft, white blanket that covered the ground. It was a winter wonderland! But it looked much the same as the feudal era. They all looked around curiously, until they spotted Souta playing in the snow nearby. As they walked over to him he looked from what he was doing, mouth open when he noticed who it was. "Oh, you're here!" He said excitedly. He jumped up, nearly knocking over his snowman. "Inuyasha! Hey, Inuyasha!"
Inuyasha and Kagome walked over to them, smiling. All Inuyasha said to him was "Hey."
"Hi Souta! Did mom tell you my friends were coming?" Kagome asked him.
"Yea!" Souta replied happily.
"Guys, this is my little brother Souta. Souta, this is Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Kirara, and of course you already know Inuyasha." Kagome said, pointing to each of them in turn. They all said a quick round of "hi's" to her little brother.
Now Souta was really excited. "Miroku…He's the perverted monk? The one with the wind tunnel? Sango is the demon slayer, Shippo's the kitsune, and Kirara's the fire cat? Cool!"
"That's right kid," Inuyasha confirmed, laughing inwardly at his description of Miroku.
"Do you like my snowman?" Souta asked.
Shippo jumped over to him, looking up at the sorry excuse for a snowman. It was lop-sided, it's eyes were falling off, and it looked like Souta had fallen on it at one point. Sango, Inuyasha and Miroku tilted their heads, to see if it looked more like a person that way. But Shippo, who had never seen a good snowman, was really impressed.
"I love it! Can I help you make it?" he looked over at Kagome, with pleading eyes. "Please?"
Kagome laughed, giving in immediately. "Alright, you can help him. But Souta, make sure you bring him back in when you're done, I don't want him running off without me. And come in if you get cold." They nodded and began to work up the snowman.
She looked over at her friends eagerly. "So, who wants to see my house?" She asked. They all grinned eagerly, and the four teens rushed over to the house. "Well, here we go. Welcome to my house!"
Kagome opened the door and rushed in, only to find her mom waiting for her, blocking the way. "I saw you guys out in the yard. Figured you'd be coming in soon." She giggled softly, looking at the snowman. "So, are you going to introduce me?"
Kagome smiled. "Guys, this is my mom, and my grandfather is around here somewhere doing who knows what!" She introduced her friends quickly, and then nearly pulled them inside.
"Um, Kagome. Can we make some ramen?" Inuyasha asked her hopefully.
Kagome groaned. "Is that all you think about? I finally have all of you here and you want ramen!"
Mr. Higurashi interrupted her. "It's all right, Kagome. I'll make ramen for all of you. You must be hungry." With that she walked into the kitchen, while the gang followed her.
When they walked into the kitchen, Sango and Miroku's jaw dropped. There were thousands and thousands of strange silver objects, a few of them they had seen in Kagome bag but most they had never seen. Glass windows and smooth countertops, floors tiled with unnaturally smooth stones all the same shape and colour; It was quite a sight for two people from the past.
"Anyway, guys. This is the kitchen. It's basically where all the food is kept and prepared." She started showing them the other rooms, answering the outburst of questions sprung her way.
"Um, Kagome. What is that silver box?" Sango asked her curiously.
Kagome sighed. She was going to have to explain everything to them! But she was beat to it, as Inuyasha stepped in. "It's called a TV." He said proudly "It's a box that has moving pictures on it, and tells a story. Watch." He picked up the converter and turned the TV on.
"OOH… look! Naruto is on!" Kagome said happily. "Wow, Inuyasha. Good memory."
Inuyasha smiled at her, his chest out in pride for knowing stuff that the rest of the group didn't. Finally, he would be the one explaining stuff to them!
Sango and Miroku were watching the TV, and Naruto and Saske were trying to climb the trees. "Oh, look! Naruto fell!" Kagome said happily, while Sango and Miroku were watching it in amazement.
"This is really cool. We need to watch it sometime!" Miroku said.
Kagome nodded. "There will be plenty of time to watch TV. If you want, we can watch a movie when we get back from the mall."
Miroku and Sango looked at her, both of them saying at the same time. "Mall?"
Then Sango remembered something "Wait. Isn't the mall that place you told me about that has all the stores? That you can buy clothes and food there?"
Kagome smiled. Maybe she wouldn't have to explain everything. "You got it! We are going to go there after we eat. Shippo too."
"KAGOME!" her mom called from the kitchen "Ramen's ready!"
"Ok" Kagome yelled back. "You guys go on ahead. I'll get Shippo…"
"DEMON!" they heard a startled yell from the yard. "DEMON BE GONE!"
"AHH! KAGOME, HELP!" came a pitiful cry.
The whole room was looking around in confusion, getting into a battle stance. "Kagome, you said your time had no demons!"
"Oh, no!" Kagome sighed. "Hang on, guys. I have to go save Shippo." With that she took off down the hallway, and ran out the door. Curiously, Sango and Miroku followed, while Inuyasha smirked. He knew what was happening.
When they looked out the door, sure enough, there was Kagome's grandfather, sutras in hand, and Kagome holding a quivering Shippo in her arms. "Kagome! Who is he? He attacked me!"
"Grandpa!" Kagome yelled at the old man, trying at the same time to comfort poor Shippo. "Would you please stop? Sure, Shippo is a demon, but he's my friend! Stop scaring him like that!" she began to pat his back gently.
"This is the second demon you have brought here, young lady!" he shot back. "I am sick and tired of having to play host to all these demons!"
"WELL YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE TO!" Kagome practically screamed at him. Then she quieted down. "Because I have invited them to stay with us for the Christmas holidays." She finished sweetly.
"WHAT!" Her grandfather roared in protest.
"Oh, come on grandpa." She said, batting her eyelashes. "And, if it will make you feel better, two of them are human." She said, still smiling sweetly.
"Two?" he said, confused "Two! How many did you bring over?"
Kagome turned to see her friends watching her. She called over to them "Guys, you can come over here." She introduced them to her grandfather. He was happy to see Sango, as she looked like a normal girl, ignoring the old clothes, and smiled pleasantly at her. He hissed at Inuyasha and Kirara. But he took a special interest in Miroku, and shook his hand eagerly.
"Come on" Kagome said, "Lets get inside and eat so we can get to the mall!"
When they were all seated at the dinning table, Kagome's grandfather started popping Miroku with questions.
"So you're a monk, right?"
"That's right."
"I've heard a lot about you. Do you really have a vortex in you're right hand?"
Miroku held up his hand to show the old man, who was stunned with wonder. "Wow. That must be some burden. You must be really brave. Could you help me with my sutras? They don't seem to be working as well as they used to." He babbled on, and held up a handful of sutras to Miroku.
Miroku sighed. This was going to be a long two weeks. And he knew he couldn't fix the sutras, as the old man would surely use them against Inuyasha, Kirara and Shippo. He looked down at them, and his eyes widened. He looked at Kagome's grandfather, and came to one conclusion; he had no spiritual power whatsoever.
"I'm sorry. Fixing another's sutras will cause me immense pain, so I cannot." He said lamely. But the old man bought it without question.
He kept asking Miroku questions, while Miroku answered in as short a way as possible, trying to ignore him. Finally it was too much for Kagome. And her mom.
"Dad" Mrs. Higurashi said quickly. "Didn't you say you were going to that old antique shop today?"
Her dad shot up "You are right! I nearly forgot!" he rushed to the door, pulling on his boots and coat at the same time. "They are having a big sale! I have to go, kids! Bye Miroku!" he yelled as he frantically ran out the door.
"Thank you" Miroku said gratefully.
"Any time. Father seems to get a little carried away. And besides, we need to get out ourselves soon, or we won't have much time at the mall!"
Mrs. Higurashi pulled into the parking lot, and they all stepped out of the car. She handed Kagome her wallet. "Kagome, I'm leaving you with the money. Don't spend it all in one place, and buy your friends some nice clothes for their stay here."
"No problem, mom!" Kagome assured her, and then her mom pulled out of the lot.
When she was out of sight, Kagome pulled all of her friends away from the entrance. "Okay, guys. I'm just going to go over the rules again. Miroku, you are the main problem. No groping, flirting, or asking any women to bear your children. You got it? NONE AT ALL!"
Miroku sighed. "But there are so many lovely women in your time! And you know how much I need a heir." With a hard glare from Kagome and Sango, he added hastily; "I'll do my best."
Kagome faced the rest of them. "Now, remember. If you don't understand something, ask me, and only me. No talking about the feudal era, demons, killing, or anything like that. Okay?"
Everyone nodded excitedly. "Now, Shippo. We need to hide your tail, or people with be staring at you all day." She gazed at him thoughtfully.
"Don't worry, Kagome," the small kitsune said confidently. "I'm a shape-shifter. I can get rid of it for now, and make myself look more human." With that he vanished in a puff of smoke, and came out looking very different. He was quite a bit taller, and had lost his demon feet, tail and fangs. He now looked like an average eleven year old boy.
Kagome smiled at him. "That's wonderful, though i will miss those feet! Could you keep it up all day? Okay, lets go!" They all turned around, and headed inside the mall.
When they got inside, and everyone gasped in shock. They were all staring around the mall, and came to one conclusion; it was big. Shops surrounded them, models in store windows showing off the latest fashion, loud music coming from a dozen different stores, a fountain in the center of a large open area with a very high glass ceiling.
"It's…so big." Shippo said in awe.
"You're right!" Miroku agreed, just as amazed.
"I know, but come on! Lets hurry!" Kagome looked around her, "We can start there!" She pointed at the nearest store, "They have all the best clothes!"
She grabbed onto Inuyasha's haori, and pulled him into the store, everyone else following unsurely. Miroku and Sango were glancing around at the clothes on the racks with slight hesitation. They were much lighter then the large kimonos and robes that was their usual attire, and Sango was starting to have her doubts when she saw some of the womens clothes. But then she noticed many of the other teens in the store and their outfits, and became suddenly self-concious. "We do kind of stand out, don't we?" Miroku whispered to her. She just nodded and hurried to follow Kagome. When they got to where Kagome had pulled Inuyasha, she already had a handful of clothes over her arm, and was looking at some female jeans. She selected a pair, and handed them over to Sango, along with a slim red tank top.
"Here, Sango. Try these on, they would look so hot on you!" Kagome said eagerly.
Sango took them from the excited girl, a little stunned at how fast she had chosen, and headed for the change rooms. Kagome turned back to the boys, and handed them some of the jeans and t-shirts that she had in her hand. "Now, for you guys. Here are some pants and shirts. I want you to put them on and come out when you are wearing them. OK?" Inuyasha took the clothes from her and walked into the changeroom, but Miroku had other plans.
He was stareing at a group of girls who were gathered around a clothing rack, all of them wearing surprisingly skimpy clothes considering the season. Miroku felt his hand twich as a small smile spread on his face. He walked purposefully over to the girls and put his arms around two of them from behind. "Hello ladies, and what might you be doing here on this fine day?"
The girls heard the voice and giggled, but it was cut short when they turned to look at him. Thier eyes went up and down his clothes and they all backed away from him. "Where are you going?" he asked.
"Get lost, freak." one of them said, and whispered very loudly to her friend "Oh my god did you see his clothes!"
His pride injured, he took the pile of clothes from Kagome and went into a stall without a word. Laughing to herself, Kagome went back to looking at jeans. So she was really surprised when she felt a hand on her shoulder.
"Kagome!" came an excited voice from behind her "What are you doing here? You weren't at school."
