Sango was quite confident on her chosen hiding spot. In fact, she smiled at her ability to even locate such a spot to blend herself in perfectly.

In a extremely dense and thick bush, Sango had found a place to squeeze herself in, and rest comfortably. It was a bonus factor in case Inuyasha took a while to find her. Which in her mind, seemed quite possible.

Happy with her spot, she sat down and laid out the stacked Ramen cups onto her lap.

This game had caught her in a happy mood. She remembered the last time she did this game; only it was training in her village. Still, even such a simple game as this was a good memory to her.

Looking at the countless leaves surrounding her, she gave herself note to limit her movements. She could never forget her father's words to her early in her childhood training.

"Never underestimate your enemy. Or for this matter, the seeker."

Miroku had also settled himself comfortable. He had chosen an incredibly large tree and was now settled on a sturdy, yet high branch. He, like Sango, had plenty of leaves to protect his figure from being discovered. But for some reason, he was paranoid.

'The countdown should be done by now...'

Shifting around a couple of times on the branch, his foot caught on a resting spot, and he silently looked below him, scanning for any other movement.

'Maybe I should find a different hiding spot...'

But suddenly, his feet fell short and Miroku could feel himself quickly slanting down the branch.

'Oh shit.' He thought as he cursed himself for shifting so much.

But his robes soon caught onto a minor branch, leaving him hanging from the tall tree.

Eyes wide, he foolishly fought with himself mentally on whether he should call out for help, or not risk his dangling self in the game.

Shippo and Kilala had chosen a large boulder near a river to hide behind. The kitsune and his companion the cute fire cat chose the shade of the extremely large rock. Being clever of his environment, Shippo had no doubtedly picked a river to lighten up his spirits on the weather.

The two were resting against the boulder as the river waves beside them bounced up and down, splattering bits of water droplets into their faces, cooling them down.

Shippo couldn't help but boast. "See? This is the best spot in the forest! Stupid Inuyasha won't find us. We'll be the last ones to be found, Kilala!"

"Mew," Kilala said nodding to the bag of potato chips they were supposed to protect.

"Oh. Right! Thanks for reminding me, Kilala!" Shippo cheered. He climbed and hopped over the large rock only to have his eyes bulge out.

Inuyasha was right in front of him. His figure was looming over the kitsune and looked quite bored.

"I-Inuyasha?!"

"Hey ya little pipsqueak. Are these chips the reward?" Inuyasha smirked. The hanyou picked up the bag of potato chips and hurriedly engulfed them down.

"Wha- How did you find us so fast?!" Shippo demanded. He thought his spot was perfect.

"Oh. I saw something bouncing up and down and heard the thing yell my name for the whole world to hear."

"B-but. We were supposed to be the last-" Shippo found it unbelievable. His wailing was cut off by Inuyasha.

"Well, I'm off. Three more to find," Inuyasha shouted back to the dissappointed kitsune and blinking fire cat as he ventured back into the forest in search of his rewards.

"Mew." Kilala said as Shippo kicked a nearby pebble in frustration.

"Well, C'mon Kilala. Lets go back to the clearing where Kagome left her backpack." The two demons left the boulder beside the flowing river and began their way back, soon eager to hear dissappointment from their other teammates.
