Hey, its been at least two whole weeks since I last updated but I have good reasons. I'm not going to go through them again since I already did on my profile so if you want to know why this took an uncharacteristically long time for me to write look. If not, make up your own reasons. This is by far my longest chapter so I hope it makes up for the wait.
disclaimer: i don't own inuyasha or anything else that is in this.

The girls drove around town for a little bit telling the guys that they were going to a new place but could not remember exactly where it was. Somehow all the girls made their way to Ayame's house "accidentally" and got out of the car they were in. There was a three minute gap between each arrival so getting each guy into the house without the others interfering would be easy enough. Almost ten minutes after Sango first arrived with Miroku, everyone was in Ayame's kitchen with the guys each tied in a chair and the girls either standing or sitting.
"Hey girls, I never you were this kinky." Miroku said earning a hit from each girl. "Okay, so maybe Rin-"
"You asshole!" Rin screamed while hitting Miroku again as Sesshomaru cut the ropes around himself and hit Miroku about ready to kill him.
"You don't know the story Sess! So at least let me tell you it before I die and untimely death! Miroku pleaded the best he could from his tied down position.
"Don't do it Miroku!" Rin warned.
"I think I wanna hear this." Sesshomaru said causing Rin to turn red.
"Its not that bad Rin." Miroku said looking at her. "I don't know why it embarrasses you so much."
"Just shut up and tell the damn story."
"And tell it I will." Miroku said. "Okay, cue flashback ripple thing. So, one day Rin and I were IMing each other when that twilight series came up. She had been reading them and was trying to get me to read them also since everyone else loved them. Anyway, I told her that I didn't read vampire erotica and that it was Kagome who did and obviously got her hooked on those books."
"Hey!" Kagome yelled.
Miroku looked at Kagome and began telling her the story again. "Well, Rin wouldn't take no for an answer and kept trying to get me to read the books. Again I told her that I did not ready vampire erotica or inter-species erotica so I would never read something that was both. She defended herself by saying it wasn't either then started to talk about some guy, Edgar was it?"
"Edward." Rin said with her head in her arms on the table.
"Yes, Edward, well she said that he planned to turn some girl, what was it?"
"Bella." Rin informed him.
"Thanks, she said this "Edward" guys planned to turn the "Bella" girl into a vampire when they got married." Miroku said complete with air quotes. "Which got me to say, 'Oh, that sounds kinky.' resulting in my assumption that Rin is kinky."
"Well, I guess that makes sense...somehow." Inuyasha said shrugging
"Yeah, it was probably her idea to tie us up in the first place." Koga said.
The girls started to laugh and Rin turned even more red. It had been her idea since she didn't trust the guys to stay at Ayame's house without some sort of restraint while waiting for the others.
"Why are we even here?" Inuyasha asked. "Sess said you guys were going out to celebrate and taking us with you. Your treat." Inuyasha said getting hungry.
"Yeah, and Sango said you were getting pizza." Miroku added.
"Oh, we changed our minds after Rin called Sess. We want you to make us pizza!" Kagome said happily.
"But, your treat." Inuyasha repeated.
"We bought the stuff." Ayame said pointing to the bags on the counter.
Sesshomaru walked over, since he was the only one not tied up and looked into the bags. "No, you bought bread, tomato soup, cheese, and random things you can put on a pizza."
"Well, if you can write songs, I'm sure you can improvise a pizza recipe!" Rin said walking out of the kitchen and into the living room.
"Yeah, so have fun!" Sango said following Rin into the other room.
"We should go now too." Kagome said to Ayame.
"Yeah, wouldn't want to distract them Ayame said untying Miroku while Kagome untied Inuyasha. When all four guys were untied, Ayame and Kagome walked out of the kitchen laughing.
Once all the girls were out of the kitchen and in the safety of another room, Sango began the countdown. "Three."
"Two."
"One."
"Blastoff." Kagome said as her boyfriend practically exploded.
"What the hell?" Inuyasha yelled. Suddenly the girls regretted untying him but could not help laughing. "First we wash their cars, now we have to improvise pizza?" I feel so used."
"Aw Inu, we're not using you." Kagome comforted while avoiding going back into the kitchen.
"Yeah, we're just borrowing your abilities and using them to the most today." Rin teased and ran for the bathroom when she heard running footsteps coming her way."And now I'm borrowing your running abilities to exercise a bit." she yelled through the locked door. "Or maybe you're just whipped, I'll never know."
Just as he was about to kick in the door, Ayame yelled to him, "Hey Inu, you break my house, I break you!"
"Feh." Inuyasha mumbled as he walked over to the couch and plopped down next to Kagome. "Well, I'm not cooking you anything unless you want to die from food poisoning or something." he warned as he turned to face Kagome and put his legs on her while leaning back on the arm of the chair.
"Its true, we can't cook at all. In fact one time we managed to make an Easy Mac patty." Sesshomaru said. "That stuff smelled like shit."
"Well, I guess having our cars washed and our dinner made by them all in one day is a bit much." Sango said. "Especially, if their cooking will kills us or stink up the place."
"Hey, Easy Mac ain't all that easy." Sesshomaru defended.
"We're just gonna have to go out then." Rin shrugged and looked at the guys. "But that means we have to get ready!" she shouted excitedly.
"Yeah," Kagome said,"I have to take a shower and get dressed, better started now." she said running out the door to get the bathroom upstairs as Rin followed close behind her.
"Hey Sango." Miroku said.
"Yeah?"
"Why do they always race for that one bathroom?"
"Oh, the radio in that one is louder and its closer to their rooms."
"That's it?" Miroku asked disbelievingly as Sango nodded. "I've been their cousin for ever and I never known that they race for a louder radio and location."
"Pretty much, now I have to do the same thing as them." Sango said running to her car.
"But what about us?" The guys asked at once looking at Ayame.
"That was weird, but I have to get ready too. You can share that bathroom over there," she said pointing to a door, "or you can go home, get ready, and meet us back here." Ayame suggested as she went up the stairs.
"You're paying!" Inuyasha yelled up to her.
"Only if all of you are done and back before us!" she yelled back.
The guys looked at each other, then at the bathroom door, then ran for the front door determined to get home and ready to go. This time, they were driving and not getting tied up.
Rin and Kagome watched for the guys to pass their house. Kagome was at a window facing Ayame's house and Rin was looking out on the other side. When Kagome saw the guys coming, she three-wayed Ayame and Sango while yelling to Rin Rin's job was to watch the as far as she could or until they turned towards a house. Koga was the first one to go into a house about two blocks down. She called Sango and told her to watch for the brothers as they passed her house since they knew Miroku lived in a house closer to Rin and Kagome's. As soon as Sango saw them running past her house and pushing each other hoping to get ahead, she called Kagome and Ayame . Once they were out of sight, Sango got in her car and drove really fast back to Ayame's house. It was a good thing they all lived in the same neighborhood and close to each other. Less then five minutes later, all the girls were back at Ayame's.
"This is a great day!" Rin said fixing her eyeliner."Free car washes and dinner."
"Sometimes I think its all done too easy." Kagome said.
"They do think that we're gonna pay if they're all back before us, right?" Sango asked.
"Yep, I made sure they do." Ayame confirmed.
"Great, well I'm done." Kagome said looking over herself in the mirror. Skinny jeans on her legs, a black super Mario shirt, her hair in a ponytail with bangs out of course, and her black eye makeup. Perfect. Ayame was finished next. She wore a black tank top, skinny jeans,black low tops, and a black and white checkered tie. Her hair was straightened and left down. Rin was done next. She wore light blue jeans and a black shirt with a red heart in an echo pattern on the left side. She chose her black rocket dogs with skulls and hearts to keep her feet covered. Her hair was pulled back into a loose ponytail and had a small headband in the keep her bangs back. Sango was the last one done since she was the last one back. She wore a plaid pleated skirt and a Yo Gabba Gabba shirt. She decided to wear flip flops and to put her hair in a ponytail. Like Kagome and the other girls, she had black eye makeup on.
So far it had been ten minutes since Sango saw Inuyasha and Sesshomaru pass her house. Instead of waiting for the guys upstairs, the girls went down to watch television while they waited. This way, they would be right there when the guys invited themselves in. As expected, Koga was the first one to run in and start looking for the girls. Next was Miroku, who looked breathless.Third was Sesshomaru who looked kind of scared. Finally Inuyasha an in and locked the doors. "Its happening again!" he yelled.
Miroku and Sesshomaru gave him the "duh" look while Koga looked outside to see something he saw in a movie. "Hey guys, this reminds me of Shaun of the Dead. What a great movie."
"Hey, that's what I said a couple days ago." Miroku said remembering the last zombie fan incident.
The girls were getting sick of waiting for the guys to realize that they had lost, so they called them to the living room to rub it in. "Um, whats going on?" Ayame asked, "and by the way, girls won you're paying!"
"Well, its a repeat of the other day." Miroku said.
"Oh god." Sango said looking at Ayame. "Be happy those two," she pointed at Inuyasha and Sesshomaru, "didn't try to go through one of your windows at the same time and get stuck."
"Hey!" Sesshomaru yelled. "They're crazy and haven't even done anything major yet. Besides, I'm not too keen on getting ear raped by some girls telling me how great I am."
"Yeah, we already know how great we are." Inuyasha said ducking as Kagome threw a pillow over his head. "What was that for?"
"I'm not sure, but I missed your head and hit your ego." Kagome giggled.
"What is today? Gang up on Inu day?"
"No, that was yesterday." Koga said, "but we're continuing it today since yesterday obviously wasn't enough."
"How kind of you all." Inuyasha said pretending to be honored. "I'll be in the car." As soon as he opened the front door, he turned around and slammed the door simultaneously locking every lock on the door. "Miroku, quick get those windows by you! Koga, get the windows by you! Ayame, lock any more doors that lead outside! Sango, lock any more windows!"
Everyone except Kagome, Rin, and Sesshomaru were locking every single possible entrance to the house. They just stood in the middle of the room until Sesshomaru pulled a pack of cards out of one of his pockets. "Anyone want to play?" he asked slightly waving the pack in the air.
The girls looked at each other and shrugged. "Can we play go fish?" Rin asked. "I seem to remember winning the last time we played."
"Sure, just remember I am the gold fish king!" Sesshomaru yelled spreading his arms above hishead and moving them to imitate wings.
"More like the big bird impersonator king." Kagome said under her breath to Rin.
"Yeah, yeah, now get ready to loose! If I win, you're both paying for me if we ever get out of here!" Sesshomaru said as her dealt out twenty-one cards between the three of them.
A few minutes later, Rin was 40 richer and Kagome and Sesshomaru were loosing their money to her somehow. "Hey Rin, the losers were supposed to buy the winner's dinner, not give up their money." Kagome said passing another five dollar bill to Rin.
"How did you turn this into a knock off of high stakes poker anyway?" Sesshomaru asked as he also sent some money across the table.
"You're the go fish king, not me." Rin said while counting her money. "This is great though! I got 50 playing go fish. I've got to play with you guys more often."
"Just shut up about that." Kagome said looking around the seemingly deserted house. "Where did everyone else go?"
Rin looked up from her winnings to scan the room she was in for her other friends."You mean the three musket queers, Sango, and Ayame?"
"Um yeah?" she asked more than said.
"Oh, they probably fell asleep next to the front door or something. It takes a lot out of you to batten down the hatches, especially under the power of Cap'n Overreact." Rin said confidently.
"I'll go check and if you're wrong, you owe me my 25." Kagome said hoping to get her money back. "Oh my god Rin, how the hell did you know what they were doing!" she yelled from her spot.
"I watch Pirates of the Carribean a lot." she yelled back.
"Okay, but no matter how you did it, that's still weird. Even to me!" Kagome said pointing to herself.
Looking out the window, Sesshomaru saw that most of the crazed fans, or zombies, had left. Maybe we can wake them up and go out in two cars." he suggested.
"That sounds great! I'll go wake them up, and by the way Kag, you owe me 25!"
"Damn it Rin! That wasn't supposed to go both ways! This sucks!"
"Not if you're me!" Rin said to her sister. "Hey losers, wake up!" she yelled and watched in satisfaction as all five of them woke up and stood at attention. "Wow,I see Cap'n Overreact has whipped you guys and himself. Anywoo, we're leaving soon."
"So get ready, we're making a run for it." Sesshomaru said tying a pillow around his stomach.
"Um, what are you doing?" Inuyasha asked as he watched his brother look for anything that could be used for protection.
"There's still people out there, and I am not going out without anything to protect me from zombie ear rape!"
Ayame decided that now was as good a time as any to tell them about something helpful in her garage. "I know its a little late to say this, but there's a van in my garage we can take."
"We're not all gonna fit in one minivan." Sango pointed out.
"Well, its more like a twelve passenger party box van. Think of Scooby Doo, just less 1970's and more boring."
"What are we waiting for, that dog is my hero! I'm driving!" Rin yelled as she ran for what she assumed was the garage door. "Okay, after my detour to the laundry room I'm driving! Which door is it?" Rin asked never loosing her excitement.When Ayame pointed to the right door, Rin power walked to the garage, got the keys of the rack, and jumped in the van. As the group stared after the girl with the same confused yet amused faces, they heard her yell to them, "Come on you meddling kids and bring your dog too!" Oh yeah, she was in full Scooby mode.
Once every one was in the van, they realized the door was closed and someone needed to be out of the van to open it. As Rin was putting on the sunglasses she found in the case built into the ceiling, she pushed Sango out of the open passenger door as Inuyasha pushed Koga out of the other door. "I nominate Scooby and Shaggy!" Rin said as she pushed Sango.
"Why do two of us need to do it?" Koga asked as he looked for the switch.
Sango rolled her eyes and pushed the open button. "Because Scooby and Shaggy do everything together.
In the car, Rin was beginning to feel like she was in an action movie. She had on ridiculous looking sunglasses, the garage door was opening slowly, and the light was shining in from under the door. All was going swell until the door got stuck. "Hey! That just completely ruined my moment!" Sango and Koga heard Rin yell from in the van. "Scooby, Shaggy hurry up and fix it!"
"Let's just push it up then push it back down." Sango said walking up to the door.
"Fine."
They slightly pushed the door and it flew up really fast. When Rin saw that the door up, she began moving the van so Sango and Koga would have to jump in. As Koga ran for the open back door, Sango stood in the garage until the van was completely out then quickly shut the door. She jogged to catch up the vehicle and jumped in. "Rin, why were you moving?"
"Well, I have always wanted to live life like an action movie. I thought i was finally getting my wish with the door, but when it got stuck, I lost hope. It wasn't until the door was open all the way that I decided to have you and Koga do something action packed so I can feel complete! Duh!"
"Oh, as long as you weren't going to leave me out there for dead." Sango said relieved.
"I'd never do that,besides we need a drummer. We can replace you later." Rin said as she reved the engine on the van and drove towards the zombies, or fans, depending on who you asked still on the little bit of driveway left. Once she made it onto the street, Rin let her inner dare devil out. This explained why Kagome refused to sit in front when Rin drove but Sango drove the same way and Kagome had no problem sitting front while Rin did. Doing 50 mph in a 35 zone was normal for them and turning as fast as possible added thrill, unless you were Kagome, Sesshomaru, or Koga. Then it meant you were probably going to die in some ridiculous car accident. If you were Rin, Sango, Inuyasha, Miroku, or Ayame, it meant you just wanted to be the next Tony Stuart.
Looking in the rear view mirror, Rin saw her sister, boyfriend, and Koga looking less than happy. "It's a control thing right?"
"If by control you mean I like to control what I am riding in then yes, its a control thing." Kagome said clutching the seat.
Rin sighed and pulled into a parking lot. "Fine, on the way home, one of you can drive." She threw the keys back at them and got out. ":But you have to fight for it."
Koga was the first to grab them from the floor, then Sesshomaru pulled them out of his hands when he wasn't expecting it. Once he was sure he had the keys, Sesshomaru opened the door and ran out to catch up with the rest of the group. Kagome followed close behind and noticed that the keys were in Sesshomaru's back pocket. This called for Rin assistance.
Kagome pulled Rin aside just before the group went into the restaurant. "I'm going to need you to help me. " Kagome said quietly so no one would hear her.
"Sure thing, with what?"
"Getting the keys out of Sess's back pocket. I'd do it, bit it would cause too much trouble and be way too awkward. So, that's where you come in." Kagome said all in one breath.
Rin already knew that she was going to do it but wanted to take as much time as possible to answer. "Well, I'm busy on Tuesday and Thursday. Tomorrow, we have that radio thing and studio time, so Saturday is also not a good day. Friday is today and I'm here. Sure, I'll do it and get some of that gum of his too."
"There, win/win situation." Kagome said walking with her sister to the loudest table.
"Man, you guys are so loud." Rin said taking a seat next to Sesshomaru. "Hey Sess, I need to show you something over there." Rin said pointing in a random direction with one hand and pulling him up with the other.
"Okay,sure." he said confused since Rin was pointing at a mirrored wall.
She pulled him around for a bit until she felt they were far enough from the table. She turned him around so he was facing a wall and dug her hands into his pockets. "Just getting some gum." she said before he could stop her or figure out what she was up to. "See that scratch right there?"
"Not really." Sesshomaru answered even more confused.
"Oh, then maybe it isn't here." Rin said putting the pack of gum back in his back pocket and the keys in her front pocket. "Thanks for the gum, Hun!" she quickly said before pecking his cheek and running back to the table.
"She's so strange." Sesshomaru said to himself as he followed her back to the table.
Just like any other awkward moment, everyone at the table stopped talking and looked at the pair.in did what first came to mind, wave and smile pretty, while Sesshomaru raised a brow. At the table, there was a mixture of expressions. Koga and Inuyasha looked amused, Sango looked angry, Ayame was zoned out and listening to her iPod, Miroku looked ready to defend, and Kagome looked in Rin's direction with hope in her eyes. Apparently she really wanted to drive that van.
"So guys, what's up?" Sesshomaru asked trying to get things back to what the group considered normal.
"As you can guess, Miroku was himself, Sango is now pissed, Ayame and Kagome are in their own worlds, and we feel like we're in the front row of a Jerry Springer audience." Koga answered.
"Yeah, right about now there should be some sort of fight between those two." Inuyasha said nodding his head toward Sango and Miroku.
"Oh good!We hardly missed anything!" Rin said taking her previous seat. "Come on Sess, sit down and see why they started bolting down the chairs on some shows like this!" Rin said patting the seat next to her. She brought her attention to Sango and Miroku and gave them the okay to continue what they were doing.
When the waitress finally decided to get the order, everything had been resolved. Sango got her anger out, Kagome knew Rin had gotten the "gum", and the hardest part of the whole night had been figured out, extra cheese pizza, a pitcher of coke, and another of sprite. Fifteen minutes later,the group was eating the pizza they waited so long and went through so much for. After eating for another thirty minutes and getting a lot of attention from laughing and talking loudly, Rin and Kagome ran out the front door. Sango and Ayame had been filled in on what was going on, so they ran to the waitress and had the check given to the guys.
Miroku sighed, "Well, we did loose the bet. How much?"
"37.64" Inuyasha said taking out his cell phone. "So that's 9.41 each."
"And a tip about 6 makes it 10.41 each." Koga said pocketing his phone.
"Wow, who knew you both and stop fighting to figure that and a tip out." Miroku said putting his money on the middle of the table.
When everyone had paid, Sesshomaru remembered that he had gotten the keys before they went into the restaurant. "Guys,the girls are probably up to something since we locked the doors to the van." he warned
"Hey, um Sess, how much can they be up to if Kagome is in the driver's seat, Ayame is next to her, and Rin and Sango are behind them?" Inuyasha asked looking at the van. From the outside,you could hear the muffled sounds of 'Lake Pontchartrain' by Ludo and see all the girls dancing in their seats."
"Just getting some gum my ass!" Sesshomaru siad walking to the back door. When he was in, he chose a seat next to Rin. "So, how was the gum?"
"Good and still great." Rin said blowing a bubble to prove her point.
"That's good." he said putting his arm around her. "I know what you did too."
Rin looked at him and started to laugh. "Did you intentionally put that movie reference in there, or was it a complete accident?"
Sesshomaru smirked and shrugged."I guess you'll have to wait and see. You have seen those movies, right?"
"Yeah, but you won't kill me over car keys and I did take some gum so I was just adding another thing when I took the keys." Rin said blowing another bubble. "Besides, she's my sister and you know what they say, chicks before dicks!"
"She's right, and I bet you drive slowly with the radio off." Kagome teased as she pulled onto the road.
"Actually, he's a maniac on wheels!" Inuyasha yelled up from his seat in the very back.
"That reminds me, tomorrow we have an early appointment with Myoga at 9 o'clock and then its off to Bobby-Boom's radio station." Sango said while playing a game on her cell phone. "That means out lives will be just like theirs."
Twenty minutes later, Kagome was parking the van in Ayame's garage. She, Rin, and Ayame went in the house to talk for a bit before Kagome and Rin went home. At 11:32, the girls unlocked the front door and walked into the parlor. Both walked right past a person sitting on the couch and into the kitchen. The person could not believe what just happend, both of the girls came inside, didn't turn on any lights, and walked right past him. Maybe he would have a grander entrance than he thought.

Chapter 17 is now finally done! Its almost 3:30 am so I have missed my personal deadline. Shucks.
