"Wake up wench!" Inuyasha screamed into her ear.
Fluttering her eyes open as though it was a sweet, soft voice that had awoken her, kagome looked up to the figure that was basically standing over her as she sat up. Kagome then proceeded to stare at him for a good minute or so before giving him a slight smile, she fell back onto the bed and pulled the covers over her head.
"it was just chicken poo head…hehe…funny…" she breathed out, "headless chicken…get you…Inuyasha…"
Inuyasha just stood up, his piercing amber eyes never left the girl sleeping in front of him.
He was speechless, what is wrong with this girl? She is the most evilest creature he had ever met…did that just even make sense? She got him making up words. Even in her dream she is coming up with weird ways to get rid of me.
Then the hysteria began.

On the first class flight to Osaka- 2hrs till landing time.
"I cannot believe that worked!" a woman in her mid 30's said as she made herself comfortable on the plush seat with a glass of champagne in one hand.
"I know right," replied another woman who also made herself comfortable on the seat across from her, "although I feel kind of bad Izayoi, tricking them like that."
"It's all their fault in the first place, they absolutely are smitten with each other and yet too stubborn to do anything about it, we are just giving them a little…push in the right direction right?" the women known as Izayoi said as she poured herself another half full glass of bubbling champagne.
"in all my years I've known you, never have I guessed you were this mischievous…I love it! You are the best friend ever indeed."
"Cheers Kaiyo! To the best mothers in the world."
Both women began giggling away as they toasted to a job well done…so far.
Meanwhile in the pilot cabin, two men sat listening to their insane wife plot out a devious plan that even they, successful and ruthless business men, could not have though about. Well they could have thought about it, they just would not do it because even they are not as cruel as that. Women are vicious…especially their wives. Thank goodness they were on their way to the beach, at least they will be able to really relax after this whole mess. Hopefully, at least.

Inuyasha fell onto the floor of Kagome's room in pure exhaustion. He could not, in his right mind, believe that he could not wake up this wench! He has tried everything in the book; banging pots and pans, yelling the house was on fire, squirting water on her face, nothing worked. Jumping up and down on her bed was his last attempt to get her up but that didn't work out so well, that's why he is laying on the floor breathing hard. Her mattress…Tempurpedic, she did not move an inch.
Finally finding the energy to push himself to stand, he decided to gave up. The great Inuyasha, giving up…a phrase he does not like associated with his name.
Inuyasha turned away from her and looked at the door, wanting to walk out and get something to eat. At least he made an effort to wake her up and if she did not wake up and has no one to drive the car, so what? Like he cares, it's not his problem but what the heck?
"WHY WON"T YOU WAKE UP?" He was extremely frustrated and could not understand how a person can be such a heavy sleeper. Yea he is a heavy sleeper too but come one, it's like she's dead or something…
Marching up to the sleeping girl, he checked to make sure she was still breathing…just in case you know…everything was perfectly normal with her. Inuyasha have had enough of this nonsense, normally he would never ever put his hands on a women with out their permission but…"Wench are you deaf? Why are you so stubborn?" Inuyasha pinched her nose lightly and tugged it from side to side, knowing it would annoy her so much she would probably wake up. Why didn't he try his in he first place again?…
"Would you stop that? I've been awake okay!" Kagome suddenly sat up making Inuyasha jump five feet into the air before landing flat on the floor once again, "you know…you're a very persistent and annoying jerk. I have been awake since you woke me up the first time, and I am assuming you found the key huh?"
Not even bothering to get up from his current sitting establishment, he asked her "Well then why did you not say something? I wasted so much energy on you…and you are very predictable you know that? Flower pot, keh."
"I wanted to see when you would give up, of course you didn't being the pest you are, so I decided to wake up before you do something stupid…you really think I would just lay there with my guard down with you in the same room? After what happened last Christmas…not likely!"
"Keh. You were the one who took the last cookie...don't blame me for your inconsiderate choices of mistake in life."
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOX
After Inuyasha practically dragged Kagome out of her bed and into the bathroom, he grabbed the luggage she had next to her closet and put it in the trunk of the car they were to bring down to Osaka.
Now it brings them to the actual beginning of the trip.
Inuyasha was inspecting the car while Kagome leaned up against it watching him with a plate of steaming hot pancakes in her hand. Hey she was hungry!
"Now remind me why can't I just drive down there with the car and you just take the plane?"
"because…I'm afraid to go by myself, I'm afraid of heights…"
"Fine then, you drive and I take the plane…it's not that long of a ride by car."
"I would but…"
"but what?…can't drive," he said jokingly, with a small chuckle, already knowing the answer to his own question but he wanted to tease her, "oh come on! you can't seriously say you've never drove a car before."
It's official, Kagome has never blushed so hard from pure embarrassment before today, and to the person who she disliked more then buying clothes then having to return them because they do not fit her, but that's another story for another day.
Kagome made a pouty face and crossed her arms, "It's not funny! It's not that I haven't drove a car before, I have a license for your information…" and driving go karts from video games count right?
"How would you have your license and not know how to drive?" Inuyasha asked her.
"Well, I never found it necessary to drive anywhere. I take a taxi from my apartment to work because it's so hard to find a parking spot downtown, the shopping center is around the corner so I could walk, the park is just-"
"Excuses, my parents told me…Idiot, the whole point of knowing how to drive is so you can go and leave as you please, don't have to wait for anyone." Inuyasha said with an annoyed look on his face.
Feeling her mood worsen, Kagome just gave up the fight, there was no way they were going to get going if they kept fighting like this so she just settled for a death glare at him. It didn't matter because he seemed unfazed and walk over to the car. What does he know anyways? It's not like I don't want to learn…it's just no one has ever taught me. My dad taught me everything I needed to know to get my license, but after he died just a few weeks after in that car accident…AH! Stop thinking about it Kagome, just ignore him.
And from that point on no words were spoken until Inuyasha checked everything to make sure the car was all good and ready for the long trip while Kagome sat on her porch staring at him, well more like shooting him glares while she stabbed her poor pancakes into tiny little pieces, pretending it was Inuyasha. Hearing the harsh clash of metal against porcelain plate coming from her only made him smirk more, thinking of all the fun he is only to have on this road trip. She gets mad so easily…so cute.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOX
The first twenty minutes of the trip was full of uncomfortable silence. Mostly on Kagome's part though, but that was because Inuyasha had a big grin on his face ever since they left her house and it was starting to creep her out. He has never acted like this around her before, he actually looks like he enjoys begin trapped in the small confinements of this car with her. He was all…happy and smiling…and nice…and stuff. Very, very creepy.
'He is up to something…kami help me now, only 5 hours left till freedom.'
"Hey you want to listen to the radio?" Inuyasha asked, taking his eyes off the road for a spilt second and glanced her.
"sure…" Kagome answered.
She reached towards the volume dial to turn it up at the same time Inuyasha did too and their hands touched. But instead of letting go, Inuyasha grabbed her hands for a brief second before taking his hands away. Kagome just sat there blushing like a virgin bride.
"I…umm…so, what do you want to listen too?"
"oh, I don't care. You choose." Inuyasha shrugged, not really caring, all he wanted was to relive some of the intense atmosphere in the car, even though it was his fault.
Kagome stopped looking at Inuyasha and gave her attention to the radio, turning the dial to many different stations but not one channel she wanted to listen to so she just gave up and turned it off.
"What's wrong? Why did you turn it off?" Inuyasha asked.
"Nothing good is on…"
"Were you looking for anything in particular? This is a radio, they can't read minds stupid."
"That made no sense and I was searching to see if they had any funny talk show host thing on…I haven't laughed today." Kagome whispered while turning her head to her window and stayed silent.
Inuyasha was obviously confused and was about to say something when he looked back at the road and saw a scenery unfamiliar to him. They were not even traveling on asphalt anymore, this was dirt road they are on. The place was overshadowed by large trees, almost blocking out the sun completely in some parts where he could see. Inuyasha slowed down and stopped on the side of the road.
"Why did you stop?" Kagome asked.
"Look around and tell me where we are." he crossed his arms and looked over to her.
Checking the place out from her seat in the passenger side for a good while, she answered, "oh, we are in a forest it seems…"
"Oh, is this place what they call a forest? NO DUH, OBVIOUSLY IT IS A FOREST! A CHICKEN WITHOUT A BRAIN COULD TELL ME THAT!"
"Why are you yelling at me for? You are the one driving sheesh." I knew he couldn't be nice for too long…he will go crazy if he did.
"Who was the one who told me the directions? You are the one holding the map wench!"
"What are you talking about?…I don't have a map."
"Then how are you getting the directions!"
"Oh, this was in the car," reaching into her purse, she dug out a small piece of yellow note paper, "it is shortcuts to get to Osaka, mom must have left it in here for us."
With a growl, Inuyasha stepped out of the car and looked around for any signs, just something to tell him they are going in the right direction because he had a feeling they were…no we are not lost.
Returning to the car, he told Kagome to hand him the piece of paper she was looking at.
Inuyasha skimmed over the note she gave him.
"It says keep driving on this road until you see a sign that says 'To Osaka', then turn right so let's just try it out." Kagome told him, even though in the back of her mind, she knew they should have turned the car around and go back to Tokyo to get some legit direction and a map. Her mom is not so trustful sometimes.
"Okay, but if we get lost, it's all your fault." Taking her word for it, Inuyasha pulled back onto the road and keep driving, occasionally glancing around for any signs that might randomly pop up on the sides.
"Oh Inuyasha…"
"What wench?"
"chickens don't talk…"
"What are you going on about now?"
"You said earlier that a chicken without a brain could tell you we are in a forest, technically chickens can't talk."
"Kagome?"
"Yes Inuyasha?"
"Stop talking."
"Right."
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOX
As the couple drove further into the unknown forest, a figure dress in black from head to toe step out from the hidden side of a shady tree, "Hey boss, I did what you asked. Everything is going as planned, what's the next step?," the figure spoke onto the cell phone.
A deep chuckle could be heard from the other line, "Good, good, continue with the next step, and keep a location on them at all times got it?
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOX
Until next time…PEACE&LOVE. Review! :D
