(A.N. Has anyone heard of Anna Nalick? I'm listening to her cd. Well anyway my mom keeps banning me for no reason. Today it was because I slept to late... this is getting stupid.

Disclaimer: Nope)

Chapter 28: The Worst-Case scenario Survival game

/Kagome's POV/

After the whole carwash thing, Sango's car is still all dirty. We are all at Rose's house. After going to InuYasha's house and grabbing dry clothes for the guys to wear of course. Miroku is wearing one of InuYasha's red t-shirts. And Shippo is too. Is that all InuYasha ever wears?

Sango and I borrowed some of Rose's clothes. The only reason we all went to Rose's house is that we are all freezing now since the sun went down and she has a fireplace. We are all wrapped up in comfy blankets. Rose's mom is really nice.

BOOM!

"AHHHHHHHHHHH!" InuYasha screams. Jeeze when did he turn into a wimp? It's just thunder! Even though it's just thunder and doesn't scare me a bit I take the chance to scoot really close to Sesshomaru.

It starts raining really hard after a minute and Rose jumps up and screams "BOARD GAMES!"

We all look at her funny.

"It's raining. So we play board games." She says simply "Let's play my favorite one. Have any of you heard of "The Worst-Case scenario Survival game"?"

"Ummm no." I say

"Ok then read the instructions."

(A.N. I did not make up this game. And this is basically my disclaimer for that. This is just a hilarious game that I like to play.)

"I CALL THE RED ONE!" InuYasha screams after skimming through the rules

"I wanna be on InuYasha's team!" Shippo screams right after him

"I want to be the white one!" I yell

Miroku grabs the blue one and says

"Sango would you do me the honor of being on my team?"

Sango glares but still goes an sits next to Miroku

"I guess that leaves me with green." Rose says "I can still beat you all anyway. I've played this millions of times."

Everyone settles around the coffee table. Shippo and InuYasha get to go first because Shippo is the youngest. Shippo rolls the dice and gets a two.

Me and Sesshomaru are sitting next to them so I grab one of the cards and read.

"How to eat grasshoppers. A. Chop the grasshoppers into pieces or grind them into a paste and eat them raw-"

"EWWWWWWWWW!" Shippo says and I continue reading

"B. Dry the grasshoppers in the sun for a day before eating, to create a chewy bug jerky. C. Remove the head, wings, and legs, then roast or boil the bodies."

Shippo and InuYasha whisper then InuYasha says "B!"

"That's not what I told you to say!" Shippo screams

"Sorry guys it was C."

"I told you InuYasha! Why didn't you listen to me!"

I tune out the fight and watch Sesshomaru move our playing piece thing forward two spaces. I roll the die and get a five! Woooohooo!

Now it's Rose's turn to read.

"How to assist someone who has fainted. We need to remember this one for InuYasha." She says and laughs

"A. Use ammonia or smelling salts to wake the victim. If those aren't available, clap loudly. B. Lightly slap the victim's face as you talk him/her back to consciousness. C. Elevate the victim's legs and wait for him/her to wake up."

I lean close to Sesshomaru and whisper "What do you think?"

"C." He says simply

"We think c." I say to Rose

"Damn." She says then "You got it."

I grin and move our pawn (A.N. Yay! I remembered what they are called! Go me!) forward five spaces. We're winning!

Rose rolls the die and gets a one. Haha maybe she won't win after all. Miroku reads off the card

"How to protect yourself from being attacked on the street. A. Run toward an area where you can hid from your potential attacker. B. While yelling, run around a parked car so it is between you and the attacker. C. Use your shoes as weapons; take them off and throw them at your attacker."

"B." Rose answers without hesitation. Then she moves her pawn forward one space.

"Yeah."

"How to tail a thief. A. Walk beside the thief; when on the run, thieves rarely notice a person in this position. Thieves watch for people behind them. B. Never let more than 15' come between you and the thief; any greater distance will make it easy for the thief to lose you. C. Quickly alter you appearance, and follow the thief from a distance."

"B."

"Nope. C."

"How to defend yourself against a mountain lion. A. Roll into a ball on the ground with your face covered and play "dead". B. Fight back by hitting the mountain lion in the head and protecting your own neck and throat. C. Maintain eye contact and sing, "The Lion Sleeps Tonight," while backing away from the mountain lion."

"A."

"No. B."

"How to foil a UFO abduction. A. Never travel alone in the woods. No UFO abduction has ever involved more than seven people. B. Dress like a tourist and carry cameras and a map. Apear willing to go with the aliens. C. Focus your thoughts toward the alien. Tell it, "Leave me alone. Go away, I have a virus."

"Is that a serious question?"

"Yes."

"A."

"No it's C."

"How to fend off a man-eating tiger. A. Wear a face mask on the back of your head. B. Rub elephant dung and urine on your clothing. C. Cover your body with crushed garlic; the smell repels tigers."

"A."

"That's right."

"How to treat a knocked-out tooth. A. Sterilize the open gum area with peroxide and water. Freeze the tooth to keep it from dying and see a dentist. B. Rinse the tooth and store it in milk. Visit a dentist within 30 minutes to possibly reattach the tooth. C. Immediately insert the tooth in butter. Wash your mouth with antibacterial cleanser and see a dentist within four hours."

"B."

"Yup."

/An hour later still Kagome's POV/

"WE WIN!" I scream jumping up and down. I lean over and kiss Sesshomaru. Oops. Didn't mean to do that. Got to calm down. I blush and sit down.

Oh damn now everyone is staring at me. This is embarrassing! Haha Sesshomaru looks shocked! Still embarrassing. Now everyone is laughing at me! That isn't nice.

(A.N. Ok what do you all think/yawns/ It's 11:23am right now and I think my family abandoned me... well not really. I was supposed to wake up at 10:00am but I accidentally set my alarm for "pm" instead of "am". And when I woke up at 11:00 something my whole family was gone. No note. This sucks. And they took the car so I know they left. I'm sure they went out to eat without me or something like that. I'm pissed. And it was just my birthday too! They are just cruel. Anyway speaking of birthdays I'm going to go check the mail. I haven't gotten birthday cards from some people. Actually the only person I got a birthday card from is my dad... who is in jail and he is someone I don't even want to talk to. Oh well. I'm waiting on the UPS truck. I am way too spoiled for my own good.)
