Sara's alarm had been blaring for fifteen minutes before she hit the snooze button. "Dam alarm" She snorted and tried to sleep again. Sara slept in the large basement of her lake house. Unlike the other kids on her side of the lake, Sara went to a private school that didn't start for another week. What seemed to be a lazy Saturday for most was actually going to be quite exiting for Sara. But we'll save that for later.
"SARAAAAAAAH!" There it was, the most annoying voice she could hear. The sound of her younger brother Joey. Under her covers Sara formed a fist and with one eye open let Joey have it. "Get out of my way" she grunted and lazily walked up the stairs to the sweet smell of bacon. "So Joey succeeded at waking you up I see" Ellie, Sara's mom observed. "Yeah, right before she slugged me!" Joey snapped rubbing his cheek bone. Sara let out a snicker and sat down and ate hastily. "Is this true?" A deep voice came from behind Sara. "Dam." It was Sara's father, he wasn't the nicest man but Sara had a bond with her father. "Honestly, Sara you can't hurt your brother like that." Sara rolled her eyes at her mother. "Good job" Her father whispered into her ear. Joey was the kind of child that was getting on everyone's nerves. "Vince, don't encourage it….Oh my got we're going to be late. C'mon Sara get in the car, we have to get to the airport" "But what about my food." Sara whined. "Move it" her mother glared at her
Once at the airport Sara, who was still in her pj's, lazily held up a sign that said 'Higurashi' in big blue letters. "You look nice" came a familiar voice from behind Sara. "Get a life Jerk-off" Sara groaned. "Hello Josh" Ellie said politely. Josh smiled and wrapped his arms around Sara's waist and rested his head on her shoulder. (If you haven't noticed Josh is Sara's boyfriend. It's a tough love thing.) Sara, her family and Josh waited until a black haired girl came shyly walking towards them. "Hi, I'm Kagome Higurashi" the girl said shyly. Sara's mother was the first to speak "Hello Kagome, I am Ellie and this is my husband Vince and my daughter Sara. Oh and this is Josh." She said with a smile. Sara just flipped the sign into the trash and lead her family, Josh and the exchange student to the baggage claim.
"Well Sara-Lou I've got homework to attend to." Josh said with a smile as he headed off. "Oh like you do homework Jerk-off." Sara replied sarcastically. "I love you too" Josh replied with a cheesy smile, and walked off.
Once at Home
Kagome got settled into Sara's room which had two large bunk beds in it so they each had enough room for themselves. After giving Kagome a tour of the house, Sara led Kagome on the three minute walk to the docks. "So what is Japan like?" Sara decided to start some kind of conversation. At first Kagome thought of the feudal era and almost explained the expansive forests and small villages but she changed her mind. "It's crowded, nothing like it is here" (Kagome speaks English fluently as does her family, except for Souta who isn't so good at it. Also to make it easier InuYasha and the gang learned from Kagome how to speak English) "That must suck" Sara replied "Ya ever ridden a Jet Ski?" Sara asked but was interrupted by Kagome's cell phone ringing. "Mushi-mushi" Kagome said a traditional Japanese greeting. "Oh InuYasha, Hi…….What, that's weird……..are you serious? What Oh Hi Sango……….It's a phone I'll explain later. Is Miroku there too………And Shippou and Kirara?……….Wow……..Ok bye" (the …….'s are when someone else is talking F.Y.I)
"What was that about" Sara asked. "Oh nothing important" Kagome replied "What's a Jet Ski?" Sara pointed over to the two Jet Ski's on the lifts in the third slot on the dock. "C'mon lets go" Sara smiled and got two life jackets and started up one of the Jet Ski's.
After they got past the buoy Sara let it go. She revved the engine and reached forty mph in no time. "Whoa" Kagome was surprised by the sudden burst of speed. After riding around for about a half of an hour they went back into the house for supper.
