My apologies to those who have been waiting for this chapter to be updated. I hope you guys will forgive me. I thanked Priestess Kagome-chan for being the new reviewer of the story.
Review Responses:
seehuey: Why do I think tat this chapter is rather 'unlogical' or should I say 'fake'? My apologies. I thought that, as I update my chapters, along the way, you would figure out who wrote the message and stuffed it inside the bottle. Obviously, the person initialed as I.Y. Taisho WAS nine years old back then when he was writing the message, and as years passed he has grown much older. I thanked you for voicing this out.
MeiunTenshi: I should be the one to thank you for spending your time to read my story. A dedication is a MUST! Well, I hope you will enjoy reading my story.InuKagKisses: I will not give up on my story unless you guys do not support me. And I did read your story 'Vampire's Beauty: Rewritten', on top of that, I reviewed. Well, it is a good story to write, and I hope you will continue writing it and not rewrite the whole story, again.
I hope these would answer some of your doubts of this story. If you have any questions on this story, do not hesitate to write it in your review; I welcome any questions. This is the chapter you have all been waiting for… let's see what would the four teenagers react living in the same semi-detached chalet…

CHAPTER 3—All Hell Breaks Lose
"WHAT! They are our neighbors for the whole summer vacation?" Kagome repeated. She cannot believe her eyes; when did that sickening silver-haired guy and his friend became their temporary neighbors for the whole summer vacation? "Sango, pinch me. Please tell me that this is just a dream."
Kagome felt the pinch her friend gave, and shouted automatically, "Ouch! Sango, not too much."
"When did they become our neighbors?"
"I can't believe my luck," the pony-tailed boy exclaimed, his tone filled with happiness. "This is the best summer vacation I've in my whole life, don't you think Inuyasha?"
"My rotten luck." The silver-haired boy inserted the keys into the lock, turned the doorknob and opened the door. He turned around and folded his arms. "Are you coming in, Miroku?"
"No way!" Miroku whispered as he cupped his hands near his mouth. "I have to introduce myself to the pretty ladies over there. Why not join me?"
"Have fun!" With that, the silver-haired boy slammed the door closed.
"Wait! How…" Miroku trailed off. "How can I get in later when you have the keys? Oh well, might as well introduce myself to those ladies first."
Kagome shook her head in reply. This is the worst summer vacation, she thought. Her gaze wondered to the two boys who were engaging in their conversation and later, the silver-haired boy slammed the door closed. He has the worst temper I have ever seen in a boy, she wondered. After that, Kagome saw the pony-tailed boy approaching them.
"Pervert-guy-alert," Sango warned.
"Hello, ladies. Came to greet you," the pony-tailed boy said politely. At least he is not as bad-tempered as the other guy, Kagome thought.
"Who ordered you to come and greet us?"
"Sango, he is just being—"
"Kagome, don't be deceived by his polite manners."
"But Sango…"
Suddenly, the pony-tailed boy grasped Kagome's wrist and pulled her towards him. "Are you so concerned about me?"
"KAGOME! Let go of my friend, hentai." Sango broke the tight grasp from the pony-tailed boy and…
SLAP!
A bright red hand mark was stamped on the side of the pony-tailed boy's face. "Come on, Kagome. We ARE going in." Sango pulled Kagome's arm and dragged her to the door.
"If you have any problems, call me. My name is Miroku," Miroku shouted as the door slammed closed in reply. Miroku sighed. Oh well, at least I have told them my name.
In the building, someone hidden in the shadows was watching them. I just hoped to join in the conversation, because it looks so fun.
One hour later…"What? What do you mean by that? I don't care what you say; I want a refund!"
"Sorry, miss. When our customers have checked in their chalets, it will neither be refundable nor altered."
"Since you do not accept any refunds, can't you change another chalet for us?"
"I'm afraid to tell you, but we can't. All the chalets in Shikon Beach have been reserved, and we can't just cancel those reservations just because of one customer requested to change the chalet she is staying."
"Sango, forget it. Let's treat this an unlucky summer vacation; it might end quicker than we thought," Kagome assured. I hope, she added mentally.
"So, if you have any problems, you can come here anytime," the staff counter said quickly and disappeared behind a door facing them.
"I hope that—"
"I wonder if those who came to Shikon Beach for a wonderful summer vacation read the 'Terms And Conditions'," a familiar muttered, loud enough for Kagome to hear.
The ladies turned around to see the person they do not wish to see, let alone hear. "What are you saying?" Kagome asked. "By the way, are you referring to us?"
The silver-haired boy raised his hands in surrendering position. "Which part of my sentence did I refer that it was you? You admitted that you didn't read it, not me."
"And which part of my sentence did I admit that I didn't read the 'Terms And Conditions'?" Kagome countered.
"Oh, you can pretend that I was murmuring to myself; no one asks you to respond."
Kagome was speechless; not only is this guy hot-tempered, he is also rude and is an expert when it comes to arguing. Oh, Sango. Help me! Kagome sent her thoughts to her friend beside her and Sango seemed like she had just read her mind.
"Come on, Kagome. It is no use of us to stand here anymore since we can't make any refunds." She grabbed Kagome's arm and pulled her away, to their chalet.
Oh, I hope this summer vacation would end soon, Kagome pleaded mentally.
Do you like or hate it? Please tell me in your reviews. And PLEASE tell me in your reviews WHAT could make those four teenagers quarrel. I would like to have reviewers be part of this story too. I will NOT update if you do not contribute any ideas to me. If you do not review, the story will always be bad.
