Summery: Kagome Higurashi is a brilliant, talented, gorgeous, amazing, humorous, tempered, wonderful seven-teen year-old girl. And she has the life, a boy she meets, wanted. On her vacation with her 3 close friends, Satori Anean, Rin Niptew, and Terisha Aushera, during summer break, she finds her whole world turning upside down, literally. Meeting a boy, with his friends of course, in the airport, she finds herself getting it bad for him.. sure he's a little wary of her, and is ignorant, evilly funny, and bossy. But what's new? Hot beaches, cool summery nights, bar poles, hotel rooms, site seeing, and mind blowing kisses; doesn't it just scream romance in Rome!?*Starts cracking up. Stops..* Wait a sec, with this entire thing going on, and secrets flowing, when does the Tokyo police come into this? And what is Inu- Yasha not telling her?!

Like attitude *wink*) and she is a little independent when she meets InuYasha.

Satori Anean (S-ah-tore-eye, A-knee-een) : 18, sort of a playboy (She'll meet a guy she likes, then `suddenly' finds another one better, and runs off with him, sort of thing.) , thinks nothing of the word `love', and she loves to make comebacks in her own special way.

Today's quote: "You can die at any time, but living takes courage.."

::

Capitolo Uno: You get mine, I get yours

"I'm warning you.."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, for the millionth time!"

"How positive are you?"

"No thank you, I don't want-"

"How sure is sure?"

"I'm sure.."

"Then again, are you sure your sure?"

"I'm pretty sure!"

"How sure are-"

"KAMI! TERISHA AND RIN, I DON'T WANT YOUR FLIPPIN' PEANUTS. OKAY?"

The girl's outburst caused the two girls, one with short wavy red hair and the other with back-length black hair with a side ways ponytail, to pop open the small peanut bag in their hands and spill it all onto the floor around them. The girl with the black hair looked up and pouted, crossing her arms with the empty bag still in her hands, "Now look what you did! I have nothing to eat anymore; I'm going to starve. And if I get really weak and die of hunger, your paying for my funeral!" She complained.

The redhead smacked her forehead, and let her hand slowly drift down her face. Growling in mock anger, she gazed at her childish friend, "Oh get over it Rin! Besides we're not even on the plane, YET!" The girl threw up her arms, to just show her point.

In the large West Yokohama airport, many people scurrying around filled the room, crowding and filling up every space noticeable. Loud yells, people chattering, kids babbling, and loud mechanical voices on the intercoms filled the echoing room, making it impossible for anyone to barely talk. The area with plastic chairs and benches, were people waiting for their flights or sleeping until the next open airline. And that's where we find the three grumbling girls: Kagome Higurashi, Rin Niptew, and a grouchy Terisha Aushera.

Terisha, the girl with short wavy red hair, looked down and glared at her `innocent' looking best friend; Rin, with her forest-green eyes.

"Don't even try to wiggle your way out of this, it was your idea to wake up at four in the morning and drag us all here!"

"I can't help if I was excited and worried if we'd miss our flight!" The sixteen-year old argued back.

"Yes you could have! You didn't have to set your clock so early! Jeese, I haven't even brushed my hair yet!"

The two girls both opened their mouths for more fiery and pathetic come-backs, but Kagome help up her hand in silence, brushing her silky long black hair over her shoulder; "Enough, I already have a head ache and I'm not even in school right now."

The two girls didn't pay attention, just snarled back at each other, cussing fowl words to each other under their breath.

A girl with short light brown hair, almost like a mushroom cut but with gel to hold it up and make it all bushy, with small black streaks in her hair, came up to the girls `fighting' over cases of their luggage. Lifting an eyebrow, she gazed at them for a second, and then did her fly up to her jeans, realizing they were un-done. Kagome sighed in her chair, and sunk lower, chewing her gum loudly and trying her best to hide behind her shades.

She loved her friends and everything, but when they did something humiliating or embarrassing, she tried to not `know' them. Keeping to herself..

Satori smirked, and then plopped into a chair next to her friend. Her hazel eyes gazed at Kagome, with amusement and pure excitement glowing brightly in their murky depths.

"'Gome, the longer you chew your gum that way, the more stressed your jaw gets and then eventually.. it falls off. Just like a loose tooth." She smirked.

Kagome just grumbled, slouching even more into her chair.. `If I can't see you, your not real. If I can't see you, you're not real. If I can't see you, you're not real. If I can't see you, you're not real. If I can't see you, you're not real. If I can't see you, you're not real. If I can't see you, you're not real. If I can't see you, you're not real. If I can't see you, you're not real. If I can't se-`

"What'cha think about, Kag? You seem, ah, occupied."

"Splendidly! I do have something on my mind! Says the girl who is completely, trying, to ignore her most embarrassing friends.. But failing miserably."

"You want embarrassing?" Interjected Satori, standing up with a sly grin, "I can strip off my top and dan-"

"No thanks, this level of embarrassment is just fine."

"Hey, Tori, where you been? I swear you were here a hour ago-"

Satori shot her a dry look, "Should I explain what a bathroom is? Or should I just skip it all and get strait to the point, and even a demonstration, of how you properly place on a tamp-"

Rin was younger of course, but she got booted up a grade. Kagome, and Terisha insistently became her friends, it took a while with Satori, but eventually she warmed up to Rin. But before Rin had her period, and well, uh, she sort of forgot to bring a tampon to a long School Camp Week-end. Satori never let that day die down.. even after five whole years. Then again, she would shut up when Rin told her a remark.. or in other words, the blackmail that even Kagome and Terisha didn't even know about… interesting.

"-on! How exciting Rinny! Oh, since we have `so much time', why don't we just skip our way to the bathroom and pract-"

"Shove it Tor, or the whole high school will know about your da-"

Rin didn't get to finish; Satori immediately had her hand slapped over her mouth.

Pushing down her shades, Kagome lifted an elegant eyebrow and smirked at Satori's low face, and scooted closer. "On go on," she urged. "I'm just dieing to hear bad things of our dear, Tori, here."

Kagome slyly bend forward to where her three friends sat on their luggages, a grin ripping across her pink lips, making any girl angry at how much beauty the girl possessed. Lifting up her glasses, they rested atop of her head, shimmering as the light bounced off it. Her deep hazel eyes bore into her blushing and muttering friend, trying her best to not blink.

"'Gome, go back to your nap and we'll wake you, when we're boarding the plane that is."

"Oh, no thanks, " Kagome smirked again, her eyes dancing wildly. "I'm wide awake and I'm happy to hear the end of this discussion; your naughty lies, Tori."

A cackle sounded on the speakers and then a booming voice surrounded their ears." Now boarding flights 498, Rome Italy. Now boarding flights 498, Rome Italy."

Satori grinned, wiping imaginary sweat away from her forehead. "Saved by the announcement," she muttered softly.

"Well," said Tori standing up stretching, " Grab our luggage and lets header girls!"

The girls just rolled their eyes.

Placing her glasses back on her eyes, Kagome picked herself off the warm plastic chair and grabbed her big black suitcase with the large silver letters `Preciosa` printed on it in a handwriting text. Struggling with the black handle that came out of the top, she growled at it, cussing as Terisha struggled to hold in her laughter. Throwing her head up, crunching up her long black hair, she growled at her.

"Kagome, Kagome, when will you ever learn?"

"Well smart-ass if you think your all high and mighty, you try it."

"You guys, hurry up! We need to get our boarding tickets!"

"Hold on, Rin! This bloody thing wont work!"

"Carry it for all I care! We need to get on the plane, and we don't even have our boarding tickets!"

"Rin!" The three girls yelled, turning around and glaring at her, stopping their previous activities. "Shut up!"

After a moment of Rin stamping her foot and glaring at her watch, Kagome pulling with all her might at the plastic black handle, Tori edging closer to the X-raying machine, and Terisha helping Kagome, they walked off towards the Boarding Ticket counter. A girl with very dark copper brown hair pulled up into a bun and dark pink eye shadow on her eyelids, wearing her skirt and jacket uniform sat at the desk, typing heavily at her keyboard and looking up at the computer screen a couple of times. A grim smile was on her face as she typed, but flickered into a smile a few times. Kagome walked up to the counter and hummed a little to catch her attention, and the girl looked up, with pretty brown eyes.

A smile filed onto her pretty lips as she stood up, and shuffled papers on the low counter top in front of her. "Welcome to West Yokohama airport, my name is Sango Shira: is there anything I can do for you?"

Kagome flashed her normal but affective smile, "Yes, I'm here with my friends, and we'd like our tickets to Rome Italy. We're all over 17, so that's four adult tickets that have been reserved, under the name of Higurashi."

Sango smiled back and then typed quickly on her computer, "Yes, we have your seat numbers and everything. Would you girls please hand over your passports so I can stamp them?"

Smiling, Kagome held tightly onto her small bag strap, pulling it up to her neck so it didn't fall off. Rin, being the excited girl she was, had raced off ahead of her with Satori racing her at the girls heels, squealing as she skidded around a corner. Kagome couldn't help but let a grin invade her face as she sped up to catch with Terisha, who was currently timing the two girls with her watch.

Jogging, the raven-haired beauty wove in and out of the people walking by, apologizing if she softly bumped them; Closing her eyes in relief as she saw Rin and Satori arguing over who had won, she smiled and panted quietly.

But then, even as she slowed down she could help but- *WHAM*

Kagome quickly fell down to the ground as somebody harshly bumped into her body, knocking the wind out of her. But as she did, a pair of golden amber eyes stared at her in shock for a moment.

Slamming against the ground, she heard a sneer ring in her ears.

"Watch where you're going, wench!"

Growling, Kagome couldn't help but think how rude the guy was being! She was watching where she was going! And the fool just ran flat into her! What a baka! And not even a small apology!

"Hey buddy, maybe you should watch where you're walking! You just turned into my path!" She exclaimed, trying to help herself up while the guy just stared at her with a deadly glare, standing still on the spot.

The guy, she realized as she picked up her bag, had long silver hair, but it seemed to be pulled into a ponytail at the nape of his neck. His pants were slightly baggy, and a navy blue at that. He wore a white wife beater and his jacket was thrown back on his shoulder, giving him a casual and melting look.

Kagome, grouchy now, stood up and twirled her hair so if flew up in her face and fell to the back of her head. The guy, stood for a second then turned on his heel, muttering things under his breath..

She growled louder and quickly yelled at his retreating figure.

"I'm not a wench, you ass!"

"Sure you aren't!"

Kagome steamed with anger as she watched him walk away from her with a smirk on his gorgeous features, not that she was going to admit he was gorgeous any second then. Picking up her beige sport bag, she hiked it higher on her shoulder and quickly sped up to her arguing friends.

Rin looked up with a smile, but faded as she felt her friend's electric madness sparking. "What's wrong, Kag? You seem upset."

Waving her hands in disbelief, Kagome pushed a smile on her face, "I'm fine, Rin- hey, where's everyone?"

Rin smiled and fiddled with her backpack strap, "Umm.. no where, they sort of umm.. They're on the plane, Kag, and umm, it's hard to explain."

"I can see that," Kagome smirked. Then her face faltered, " Hey, Rin's, did you see a guy with long silver hair walk by here a second ago?"

"Umm. I think so, why?"

"Oh, just wondering. The guy bumped into me a second ago-"

"Ohayoo Gozaimasu, you stunning ladies. I hate to be a tad rude, but have you seen a guy around the age of 19 around here?"

A boy with a long black trench-coat, a dark purple, almost black under shirt, brown shades than were brought down to his nose so he could see them, crisp dark blue jeans, short hair pulled into a small rat-tail and a smile tugging at his lips stared at them, hope rising in his coal black eyes.

"Can you describe the man better?" Rin said, with her normal happy smile flashing brightly.

"Well, he's rude, annoying, grumpy, likes a good game of football though-"

"We meant what he looks like." Kagome sighed.

The guy's eyes brightened a bit more, "Oh! I see, well, I'm not sure what kind of clothes he's wearing.. but he has eyes like golden coins, and long silver hair-"

"MIROKU! YOU BAKAYAROU! STOP FLIRTING AND HURRY UP!"

"I wasn't being bad!" The man argued as a girl came running up to them. " I didn't even grop- hey, let go!"

The same girl, Kagome noticed with large eyes, was dragging the guy back down the hallway by his ponytail, growling at and cussing as he trying to grab her back. What was her name? Oh, yes, Sango, she was muttering things under her breath, something like "lechers and their damn sick minds".

Blinking, Kagome stared at where Sango and that guy, Miroku, left around a corner in the hallway. Sango, she noticed as she turned back to Rin, was out of her Airport uniform and into casual clothes.. strange. Rin looked at Kagome, hands over her mouth, giggles erupting as her body shook in laughter.

Kagome let a smile tickle her lips.

Suddenly, a voice boomed in the hallways, echoing, and making people literally stop in fear..

"HENTAI!"

Kagome and Rin just burst out in laughter.

"Row 5 & 6; seats 234 to 250 are open. If your seats are one of those numbers, please go ahead."

Rin, Satori, Terisha, and Kagome handed their tickets to the woman, at a small booth, and stepped onto the plane. The plane wasn't crushed as much as Kagome had thought, but it wasn't quiet.. it sounded like bee's humming around the room. Apologizing and slipping through the crowds, the girls finally found their seats in the plane's middle, four seats placed next to another, the same style with 3 or 4 rows ahead of them. Sighing in relief, the girls placed their lighter bags and coats under their chairs or above them in compartments. Settling down, people around them taking their seats, Rin and Terisha started playing X & O's on a small pad of paper, Satori slumped in her chair and fell asleep, and Kagome dug through her bag for her disk man and burnt cd's.

Snapping the headphones over her ears, Kagome quickly pressed the `play' button and listened. It was her burned disk she made, it had Boa, Plumb, Huko, Gob, The darkness, and others on it. The disk swirled as she watched it and softly the song got louder and she hummed in tune to the song..

Don't start now.
The feeling's come and gone.
You played me far too long.
Now I'm over you.
Toodle--oo baby.


My friends, they tell me you're no good.
I never listen but I should.
'Coz you ain't right for me.
Now you're stopping over every day.
Getting all your stuff up in my face.
And that ain't what I need.

Kagome started to move around in her seat, like she was dancing to the music, of course some people stared, but her friends knew her antics after many friend-shipping years and just smiled at her. Looking up she noticed people gazing at her, but they just smiled and returned to their other activities or stood up to go to the washroom at the back of the plane. There was something poking her side, and the girl gazed at her friend pointing at a flight attendant at the front of the plane, pointing to a blue flashing sign with a seatbelt on it.

`Buckle up', Kagome caught from the woman's lips.

Clicking the metal strap, Kagome watched others lay back and rest while Rin struggle to put on her seatbelt.

There was a rumbling sensation on the floor, and a people put down their drinks and snacks. Looking out a window that was close by her, she noticed the ground starting to move fast and shrink as loud motoring sounds over-powered her headphones. Kagome started to smile a bit more as she noticed Rin's eyes closed and her breathing out of her mouth; it was her first time on a plane, and she swore she wasn't more than happier to go on it. Kagome had a feeling Rin wasn't going to go on the plane back home easily..

Pulling down her head-phones and shutting down her disk man, Kagome smiled and hummed softly as Satori rested her feet on the chair in front of her, closing her eyes and laying back as shaking movements jiggled their seats on the plane. After a few more minutes of the plane noises and shifting, the speaker fuzzed and the Captain's voice wrung out.

"Thank you for staying calm and relaxed as we took off, we are now safely flying and you are now free to take off your seatbelts. The flight attendants will be out shortly and serving breakfast, snacks, and brunch. Thank you again and have a safe flight."

"Alright I'm adding my strip of gum and 7 bucks to the pile."

"So how many minutes you guessin'?"

"Two minutes."

"Whatever you say Kag, your lose though."

"How can I lose? She has her mouth open for kami-chan's sake; that's the first sign!"

"No, I believe its when you mumble."

"Mumble? That's not right! It goes, shift, mumble, open mouth, and then snore!"

"Alright it's been a minute, then we'll see."

"I still say it's the shift-"

*Snore*

" I TOLD YOU IT WAS THE OPEN MOUTH!"

Everyone in the plane that was awake looked back and gazed dumbly at the girl jumping up and down in her seat, holding a fist pile of money, gum, hair berets, rings and other trinkets. Her smile was flashing widely and her eyes were dancing with laughter, while her friends grumbled and turned to do other things to get their minds off the silly bet.

"'Gome sit down, and you suck at playing `Bored Betting'-"

"No you blow Tori, cuz you just hate it when I win!"

"Damn strait."

"Would you both sit down and shut up?" Complained an annoyed and tired Terisha, " I can't believe you guys." She grabbed a pillow that was under her seat, fluffed it a few times and then lay back to only wall asleep.

Satori lifted her eyebrow at her friend but sat down and tried to get comfy anyhow, ignoring Kagome's twitching smirk the whole while. Kagome, bored and a bit sleepy as she settled down in her chair with her winnings still in her palm, shifted restlessly in the comfortable chair and leaned her head on her propped up elbow on the armrest. The girl's dark hazel eyes started to glaze with sleep as she blinked, trying her best to stay awake.

Loosing her mind to sleep, she had enough strength to stare at someone walking by her, going up to the front and getting a glass of water..

Someone with silver hair, and someone who made her heart actually beat with a wild pace…

"Would you girls like anything to eat or drink?"

"Well my friends are sleeping but I'll take a bottled water and some soda crackers, please."

Grumbling, Kagome sleepily rubbed her eyes and stretched from after her morning nap. Opening her eyes, using her hand to block the sun from a nearby window, she gazed at her friend, Satori. Tori sat beside Rin and Terisha and supporting their heads with her shoulders while managing to read her magazines, `Twist'. Hearing yawning, Satori looked up and smiled at Kagome.

"I see you had a nice sleep; I didn't get any, they were snoring and kicking the whole damn time. I'm sharing a bed with you in the hotel, there's no way I'm sleeping with either of them."

Kagome smirked, knowing that Rin and Terisha would get a ear-full when they woke up; probably about trying to sleep strait and not hurt the sleeping neighbors next to them, mainly kicking, slapping, scratching and bruising them. Satori was a peaceful and quiet sleeper, and she loved doing her favorite hobby a lot. Tori was always grouchy when she didn't have a long nap or even a wink of sleep. So naturally, people didn't let her have her way; doing it to just piss her off a bit.

She was a very aware and light sleeper, so it was easy to wake her up, but getting her out of bed was another story..

"You hungry, Gome? A stewardess went back to get me something, but you can ask her what you want."

Kagome smiled through her sleepy smile, "S'course, what do they have anyway? I mean, what are they serving?"

"Breakfast and brunch."

"I see, well, I'll pick something when she gets back."

Within a few moment later, a girl in a crisp dark green and white uniform came back, pushing a trolley of food along. She smiled at Satori and then handed her a botteled water called `Evian' and a small plastic bowl filled with crackers. Looking around, the flight attendant smiled at Kagome, " Would you like anything?"

"I guess so, what do you have?"

Awaking, Rin heard munching sounds and sat up with a yawn as her friends and an airline person came into focus. Kagome watched as Rin brushed her hair back and then gazed at the food trolley with a happy smile, happy that she didn't miss a food serving. The stewardess noticed another girl waking and then re-asked the question.

"We have the normal kind of drinks; water, pop, juice, milk. And for our snacks we have our complimentary salted peanuts-"

Rin squealed, completely awake, "Oh, more peanuts!"

The flight attendant looked at Rin strangely, with an expression that clearly said `how old is she?'

"Our friend you see," whispered Tori, stopping in mid-bite. "Has addiction to peanuts, and she refuses to eat anything else but them."

"Damn strait!"

"You guys are so loud, would you turn your voices down a notch?" Complained Terisha again, snuggling back into her un-fluffed pillow. "You could wake an army with your squeal, Rin."

"Or a whole plane, " Interjected Satori: chomping on her crackers after her statement again.

"So, I take it we're in Rome?"

Three loud smacks could be heard.

"I was just making sure we landed in the right place, jeese. That hurt ya know?"

"Well, I guess we should grab our luggage at the belt and then header over to the hotel room!"

"'Gome, we're next to the conveyer belt."

"Oh,"

"Yeah.."

"You guys hurry up!"

Blinking, Kagome and Satori watched as Rin picked up her apple-red suitcase with `Tommy Hilfiger' printed in black on the sides, and then stood next to them while tapping her foot impatiently. The airport was busy like every other one, but more people talking in Italian and delicious smells of cooking bread surrounded you, just making your mouth water. Terisha had already grabbed her suitcase and sat patiently on a bench next to a fountain in the large airport, watching people pass and kids throw coins into the water fountain made of stone.

The Roman airport was much more cleaner and gorgeous than the other ones, with portraits, flowers, people smiling, and violin music around you. It was hard to not fall in love within the climate; it was so inviting and amazing the whole while. Rin started to get more annoyed, wanting to head to the hotel and go site seeing before dark. Snapping to her senses, Rin rushed up to the black rotating belt, grabbed Satori's blue suitcase and Kagome's black one, not even caring if they were different.. kami, she was just hungry!

"Okay, the taxi's waiting outside, lets go!" Rin whined, already racing to the mechanically opening doors.

Laughing, the girls followed their leader into a yellow taxi, hopped in and shoved in their suitcases.

"To The Exedra, A Boscolo Luxury Hotel, and punto su esso (step on it)!"

.

~Meanwhile.. back in the Roman Airport.~

.

"Hurry up Yasha! We can't stay here all day you know, there's tons of Keisatsu`s (cop's) around here! We could get caught, you stupid baka!"

"Alright alright, Mir, jeese take a breath before you pass out!"

Unnoticed to them both, Inuyasha Shimashi grabbed the wrong luggage case, the one with the letters `Preciosa' not the silver letter word `Polo'.

A large stone building stood almost 30 feet tall, colored in a nice and warm beige color, with stone statues, fountains, glass doors, balconies, gas-lamps, and flowers hanging off it delicately. It was shaped like a curved line, cars and limousines filled the large circler driveway. The sun was setting already and the world's best shinning stars were already out and glittering, also competing the lit lamp lights outside the marvelous hotel. A large open fountain was showering water around the amazing carved stone people, shimmering with coins and lights around it decorately. The large driveway was filled with cars moving and people walking up to the hotel with smiles on their faces. The hotel was lit up like the sky above it, lights along the pathways so people could see and the people on the roof top relaxing in the large hot tubs or the swimming pool to gaze down upon.

And that's where the four girls stood, gapping.

"You mean we're staying here? Holy crap!"

The girls walked up to the doormen, who held the door open for them while tilting their hats and smiling at them. Smiling back, Kagome walked happily into the hotel, noticing as people guiding her through the doors and up to the counter. Looking around at the hotel lobby, she noticed people laughing and sipping coffee in snow-white glass cups. The jaw-dropping room had dimmed lighting to not hurt your eyes and wall-lamps, small chandeliers and candles shimmering around the room. There were comfy chairs, couches, sofas, and soft seating benches colored in a regal cream-and-butter. The walls had soft silver designs on them but the background was colored in a soft pinkish white. The ceiling was vaulted and held a large glistening, crystal chandelier, which was glowing brilliantly.

"May I help you Miss?"

Jumping a little in surprise, Kagome faced the counter and smiled sweetly at the older woman with brownish gray hair. The woman wore a nice light blue blouse with a long skirt and a few golden bracelets on her wrists. Her smile was warm and almost motherly looking, and Kagome almost felt right at home.

"Oh, yes please, I just arrived with my friends from Japan, and we have reserved a hotel room for few weeks. And we'd like to check-in please and thank you."

The woman smiled again, and then turned her attention to the computer behind the counter. Typing for a moment then stopping, "And it's under the name Higurashi, I presume?" Her voice was thickly filled with Italian, and Kagome just adored her accent.

"Yes."

"Alright then Miss. Higurashi, one of our men will put your packings on a trolley and guide you up to your room. Please have a wonderful stay here, and don't hesitate to ask any questions or other things."

"Thank you."

"My name is Mrs. Madaviglio, but you may call me Maggio or Mag."

Kagome shot Mrs. Madaviglio another heart-capturing smile and nodded politely, " I will thank you, and I'll ask for you if I have any problems, Mag. And have a wonderful night."

Maggio just smiled and nodded back, waving as she watched the girl walk out of sight and into an elevator with her friends.

"Only if Mr. Shimashi could meet such a sweet girl.."

Twisting the golden door-knob to room 102, the mahogany door swung open and four gasps could be heard..

It was amazing..

So stunning..

The room was dimmed with tiffany floor lamps, hazel colored glass, the bottom floor was a small living room; a completely small table set with a wooden table painted black, a vase of white roses and baby's breath filling it, soft and pillowy chairs and a small sofa moved into a corner, right next to a glass-sliding door balcony. The view was of the illuminated historic town, and a pile of stars in the midnight blue sky, also concluded with the hotels garden. The floor was hardwood, mostly a Beachwood, and beautifully woven rugs were placed on it.

Rin raced into the room with Satori right at her heels, both of them running upstairs and claiming beds and other things, which the two other girls did see yet. Kagome smiled and then dragged a gapping Terisha in, then pulled her into the large and comfortable living room. The stairs where at the back of the room and to the right corner, they were covered in a light beige color in carpeting, and they lead you up ten or twelve stairs and into the upstairs bedroom. Two beds were covered in silk sheets, dark rose and Smokey gray duvets, with crocodile black leather headboards.

Gapping, Kagome stood in one spot on the floor as Terisha rushed forward and claimed a comfy bed, falling onto it and moaning at how soft and feathery it felt.

Inhaling the features of the hotel room, Kagome nearly died at how beautiful her living style was for the next two months..

"You guys, lets unpack so we can sleep-in tomorrow." Satori called from the bathroom.

"Alright, alright."

Racing downstairs and then back up, the girls claimed the beds and then started unpacking. Kagome threw her bag on the bed and then started un-zipping it-

What the?

Axe deodorant, red swimming trunks, large black expensive shoes, black crisp suits, electric shaver, white socks, `Hot

& Sexy' cologne, boxers, guy t-shirts, a pair of black shades, a rosary necklace, sports-car magazine, `Aquafresh' toothpaste-

Wait a minute.. this wasn't her bag.

Oh Kami..

"INUYASHA!"

InuYasha walked out, "Whatever happened, it wasn't my fault."

"Stupid baka, " Sango Shira muttered under her breath. "What the jigoku (hell) is this? You starting to cross-dress now?"

"What the fuck, are you talking about woman?"

Sighing, Sango reached into `his' black suitcase, dug around for a minute and then pulled out a black thong along with her raised eyebrow. The man stared at her for a minute, silently asking if she was joking around.. but the emotion on her face showed him not.

"Does it look like I fucking know why it's in my bag?!"

"Inuyasha, it's not your bag.."

"What?"

Sango growled, picked up the suitcase and then emptied it onto the bed. Underwear, skirts, bras, makeup, a hair-blow dryer, magazines, cd's, tank tops and sandals were sprawled out onto the bed..

"My bag got lost.."

"No shit Einstein."

"Wow, Inu, changing sex so soon?"

"What the hell? How the fuck did this happen? I swear I grabbed the right bag, I mean, it was the `only' black bag with Polo on it in silver letters.."

"It has Preciosa on it."

"This is so fucking annoying! Why can't people keep track of their own bloody stuff, then I wouldn't be going through this!"

"Inuyasha, talking to yourself isn't the best sign.."

"Miroku, do me a favor."

"What?"

"Shut the hell up, your not helping."
