Boarding

"Here we are!" Sango announced as they opened the door to the cabin they would be sharing and walked in. "Sure took us long enough to find it, ne?"

"Sure did…" Kagome said, gratefully dropping her bags on the floor and heading straight for the window. `Hmmm….. I wonder what kind of view we have?' She pulled the blinds up to find…..

… A wall

"The windows are just for decoration, Kagome. Cabins cost a whole lot more if you want one with an actual purpose," Sango explained, seeing Kagome's disappointed face.

Kagome sighed. "Figures…" She closed the blinds again and looked around at the room she'd inhabit for the next two weeks.

Their cabin wasn't all that big. Just large enough for two beds that folded up into the wall, a small kitchen area, and a bathroom. `Well, at least I'll be able to take showers on this ship…' Kagome thought. (She had been worried about that!)

"What should we do now?" Sango asked. "Do you wanna unpack, or explore the ship, or what?"

"I dunno, why don't you decide?"

"Hmmm... we can unpack later, let's check out the pool!"

Miroku led the way through a crowded building. Hundreds of people were in lines, going through security, getting anything they'd need for there stay (important stuff- like room keys and complementary magnets). The employees entered from a different area of the building though, and pushing their way through the crowds to get there was not easy in the least.

"God, how many people are getting on this ship, anyways?" Inuyasha asked, extremely frustrated.

"Hmmm…" Miroku thought for a moment. "Probably a couple hundred… why do you ask?"

Inuyasha had nothing to say to that, so he just continued to follow Miroku as ably as he could.

They eventually arrived at a much shorter line leading up to two women behind a long counter. The line, despite being shorter than the others, still seemed to take forever, as the women asked each person a few questions-name, age, place of birth- to make sure each person was who they said they were. Then they gathered more information, such as what languages each person spoke (they had to be at least bilingual) and their measurements (in order to give them their uniforms. Miroku was listening very attentively, almost too attentively, to that part of the questioning, at least when it was a woman being questioned…

There were only about 4 or 5 people total who spoke Japanese. `I guess I'll be speaking in English for the next two weeks…' Inuyasha thought. Then he remembered the two girls from the airport. They had been speaking Japanese. `I wonder if they're on this cruise, too.' He knew it wasn't likely, but he'd like to be able to talk with someone without having to think about every word and every sentence he said.

They finally reached the front of the line, answered their questions (in English) and got their uniforms. They were both quite different- Miroku's being classier because he'd be working the bar during the day. Inuyasha's outfit was plain white, befitting of his job at the midnight buffet and pizzeria… `Hmm… pizzeria… that'll be my first stop when I get on the ship…' he thought, as his stomach growled.

Carrying their luggage and uniforms, Inuyasha and Miroku walked into the Jewel, the huge ship that would be their home and workplace for the next two weeks.

okay, so that's, like, the end of this chapter. When i started writing it, it was last school year… man, i feel really bad for makin y'all wait… i just that whenever i thought "i should work on that chapter….", i said to myself, "no, you should just go read fanfiction…. Such-and-such story just got updated!" and that's the way it is. ::looks at last time she updated:: O_o May?!?! I'm so sorry, y'all!!!!

I'd like to think that this chapter is longer than the others, but i can't really tell……

But as always, review! Tell me what you think, kay? And if you've noticed that i haven't updated in a while, just review again…. Each review i get helps me get a little further in the chapter, but production all but stops when i don't get any…….
