Okaeri Nasai
Chapter 5-Hyper
That night at supper, Kagome explained the whole story to the exchange students: how she had first fallen down the well, how she had met Inu-yasha and the others, and how she was a reincarnation of a priestess who had been brought back to life anyways.
"Huh?" the three had said at the same time.
"Never mind," Kagome said, smiling and sweatdropping.
She had gone on to tell of the quest to look for the Shikon no Tama, the Jewel of Four Souls, which she had inadvertently shattered on her first visit to the Feudal Era.
"So now the only question is, how did they get into our rings?" Meg asked, fingering hers on its chain.
"I have absolutely no idea," Kagome said, shrugging. "Obviously it's not some of the shards we've collected so far." She held up the little vial around her neck that held the shards.
"Uh, Kagome?" Akkiko said nervously. "Are you sure you should be saying all this in front of your family?" The four girls looked to where Mrs. Higurashi, Sota and Grandfather were eating dinner calmly.
"Oh, they know," Kagome said. "I couldn't miss so much school and have them NOT know."
"That reminds me Kagome," Mrs. Higurashi said, "How is your dog-eared friend?"
Sota perked up. "Yeah, how is Inu-yasha? Is he coming for a visit soon?"
Kagome sweatdropped. "I hope not."
"Maybe he'll show up to get revenge on Meg," Kat teased.
"Whatever," Meg said, slurping up some noodles. "Let that puppy-eared mutt come and get me whenever."
"I'm sure Akkiko wouldn't mind that," Kat said with a sly look at her friend.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Akkiko said, going red.
"You're blushing, Akkiko," Kagome said, laughing.
"Shut it."
---
Later, Meg, Akkiko and Kat sat down in Kagome's room.
"Wow, I can't believe that we can actually go back in time!" Meg squealed. "This is so cool!"
"Maybe we can send a car through the well," Akkiko said thoughtfully. "We could totally freak out the villagers."
Kat blinked at her. "And I am assuming you'll be driving."
Akkiko nodded. "Of course!"
Meg and Kat looked at each other. "NO!"
Akkiko pouted. "Why not?"
Her friends stared at her, eyebrows raised.
"Point taken!" she shrieked, grabbing a pillow off of Kagome's bed and chucking it at them. Kagome came into the room, carrying a tray of popcorn, chips and soda.
"Ooh! Food!" Meg grinned, grabbing the bowl of chips.
Kagome grinned as they settled down in front of her TV and started watching a movie. As the opening credits started rolling, Kagome asked, "So it's no problem for you guys to spend the weekend here, right?"
Akkiko shook her head. "Mr and Mrs Midori are pleased. They say the neighbours are getting creeped out that I sleep in the tree outside Eri's window."
Kat stretched. "It's such a relief to not have to put up with Yuka's parents. Honestly, they're so chatty! I was going insane!"
Akkiko snorted. "Like you had any sanity before this." Insert Kat's glare.
Meg grimaced. "Mrs. Haru said it's fine if I stay over here as long as I get my homework done!" Groaning, she flopped down on the floor. "Let's just say they're not too happy with my marks right now."
Akkiko blinked. "But we haven't even gotten our first report card yet!"
Meg glared at her. "Is that supposed to make a difference? I think they hack the school's computer system."
Everyone laughed, but Akkiko stopped suddenly.
"What's wrong?" Kat asked.
"I just realized something," Akkiko said. "I'M STILL IN THIS -BEEP-IN' SKIRT!" She jumped up and grabbed Kat and Meg's arms, pulling them up with her. "Everybody out! I'm changing! Right now! No calm, quiet exits-I mean pushing and shoving and falling over the person in front of you!!"
Kagome, Kat and Meg were left staring at a closed door as Akkiko slammed it.
"Wow," Kagome said, blinking. "She must really hate that outfit."
Meg and Kat blinked at each other. "No shit."
---
In the mini-shrine, Inu-yasha climbed out of the well.
"I don't care what Miroku said," he growled. "Those wenches may be coming back tomorrow, but I'm not waiting." And, with plans at getting back at Meg fluttering around in his head, he rushed out of the mini-shrine and across the yard.
He leapt up into the tree outside Kagome's window [A/N: If there isn't really a tree outside Kagome's window, let's just say we randomly planted one and it magically grew overnight] and peered inside. He saw someone moving around . . . but it wasn't Kagome . . . it was that Akkiko-chick. . .and she was-
"OH, SHIT!!" he yelped, and jumped backward, away from the window. Unfortunately, not being the sharpest knife in the drawer, he sort of forgot he was in tree.
-CRASH!!-
"What was that!?" Kagome said, as she, Meg and Kat ran outside. There was Inu-yasha, face down in the dirt, underneath the tree.
Meg looked at him, then at the tree, then at the window, and her thoughts clicked.
Akkiko turned around at the crash, slipping on a T-shirt overtop her shorts. Opening Kagome's window, she looked out, only to hear:
"You pervert! You goddamn peeping tom! I oughta poke your goddamn eyes out! Take THAT! AND THAT!! AND THAT!!!!"
Akkiko called down to Kat, "Why is Meg chasing Inu-yasha around with a frying pan?"
Kat sighed. "Never mind, never mind!"
Five minutes later, Inu-yasha was pushed through the well by a sweatdropping Kagome; he nursed several bumps on the head. Meg was tied to a tree, glaring, and was guarded by Kat, who was trying to fill Akkiko in on why exactly Inu-yasha had been put through death-by-frying pan.
"That jerk deserved it!" Meg shrieked indignantly. "I mean, he saw my little sister naked, for god's sakes!"
"We'll never know that," Kat snapped. "You hit him so hard he has amnesia now!"
"Yeah, Meg," Akkiko scolded. "You didn't have to be so brutal!"
"I wasn't that bad!" Meg protested.
"When he finally came around, all he could say at first was, `I like fluffy bunnies'," Kat said in monotone.
Something clicked in Meg's brain. "Hey, Akkiko, why aren't you disturbed by this?"
Akkiko shrugged. Kat noticed her blushing.
Meg's eyes went very wide. "OH MY GOD!! You wanted him to see you naked!"
Akkiko went red. "No! I didn't-I mean-ack!"
Meg wrenched through her bonds and grabbed Akkiko, dragging her off for a little `heart-to-heart'.
"I mean-I'm just not bothered by it!-er-"
"You should quit while you're ahead," Kat said, sweatdropping.
Meg was on the verge of a hysterical freak-out. Scratch that, she had already gone way beyond-by several meters, in fact.
Akkiko dug her heels into the ground, glaring. "Hey, I saw the way you were looking at Miroku-I bet you wouldn't mind HIM seeing you naked."
Meg flushed. "What?! How can you-I wouldn't ever-I mean-"
Kagome sighed. "You two are so weird."
"Hey!" Kat said. "What am I, chopped liver?"
Meg and Akkiko looked at each other. "Yes, Kat-you are ch-ack!"
"SHADDUP!" Kat said, throwing chopsticks at them. They buried themselves in the tree so hard the bark cracked.
A few seconds passed in eerie silence, and Kagome started laughing. The others looked at her, and then laughed themselves.
"I'm hungry!" Meg said. "Let's go pig out on popcorn!"
"Works for me," Akkiko said. "But seriously, Meg, you can't exactly say Inu-yasha isn't hot."
"I'll admit the puppy boy is cute," Meg said, "But he ain't got nothing on the monk."
"Hey, Meg?" Kat said sweetly. "You're drooling."
"DIE!"
"EEK!"
"Meg, don't kill innocent people!"
"She's innocent?"
"Stop it, you three!"
---
(The next day)
"Uhhhhh. . ."
"AAAHHH! It's attack of the zombie Meg! And her evil accomplice, zombie Akkiko!!"
"Shut up, Kat," Akkiko mumbled, sitting at the kitchen table and laying her head on it.
"Why are you two so dead?" Kagome asked, making breakfast.
"They were up all night arguing who was cuter, Inu-yasha or Miroku," Kat said, grinning. "They finally fell asleep at four am."
"And now it is . . . six am!" Kagome said brightly. "Here, maybe this will wake you up." She handed Meg a mug of something. She took a slug of it. Kat and Akkiko paled.
"What was that?"
"Coffee."
Akkiko patted Kagome's shoulder. "Kagome, back at our school in Canada there was a guy who thought all woman were weak, except three. You just gave liquid caffeine to one of them!"
Kat shook her head. "What do you have to say for yourself?"
Kagome blinked. "Um . . . oops?"
---
It took about two and a half hours to get Meg out of her coffee-high.
"Before we go back to the Feudal Age, we should probably get our homework done," Kagome said; her tone indicated she wasn't thrilled about it.
"Yeah, sure," Meg said, "after all, it's only Saturday."
"Sarcasm noted," Kat said, bringing out her textbooks. Soon Meg, Kat and Kagome had their books spread out over table.
"Akkiko, where's your homework?" Kagome asked. The black-haired girl was sitting at the table, looking bored, with no books in front of her.
"What? What's homework?"
"You know, those sheets of paper the teachers hand out at the end of class that you work on at home-hence, homework."
"Oh!" The expression on Akkiko's face was one of enlightenment. "You mean that thing my teacher assigned me yesterday?" She was met with three nods. "Oh, I haven't been doing that for the past week."
Kagome and Meg sweatdropped at her. Kat grabbed Akkiko's backpack. "Then why does your backpack feel so heavy? I mean, it's like you're carrying a couple of six packs in here-" The bag fell open.
-clunk- -clunk- -clunk-
Meg and Kat glared at Akkiko. "Scratch that," Kat said. "THREE six packs-of ICED TEA!!"
Akkiko's thoughts at this moment: `SHIT!!'
"Ah!" Akkiko sweatdropped and tried to look innocent (failing miserably, I might add). "How did those get in there?"
"How the hell did you sneak this past airport security?" Meg burst out.
"With great trouble," Akkiko said brightly.
Kat put the six packs back into the backpack. "So THIS is why you didn't have your homework with you?"
"Pretty much," Akkiko said, "I thought it was best to carry only the important stuff."
"What's this?" Kat asked, lifting up a clump of hair tied with a ribbon.
Meg stared at it. "Hey, Kagome," she said. "Who has black hair in the feudal era other than you, Miroku and Sango?"
Kagome thought and blinked. "Kouga?!"
"Crap," Akkiko mumbled under her breath.
"When did you get close enough to him to get his hair?" Meg asked, flames sprouting up behind her.
Akkiko sweatdropped. "Erm, well, they were all over Kat's uniform. . ."
Meg turned on Kat. "And WHY were they on your uniform?"
It was Kat's turn to sweatdrop. "Well, he kind of . . . er . . . was holding onto me. . ."
Meg's face went very ugly indeed. "Dead wolf walking."
Everyone sweatdropped. "That reminds me," Kat said, trying to get Meg's head off of homicidal thoughts, "what exactly did you do to Kouga?"
"That . . . is a secret!" Meg said brightly.
"Ah . . . right." Kat hefted Akkiko's backpack onto her shoulder. "I'll be right back!" She ran out of the kitchen, out the door, and across the yard.
"So what's the big deal with the iced tea?" Kagome asked.
"Let's just say Akkiko on iced tea is like me on coffee-only times by ten." Meg shuddered. So did Kagome. Akkiko merely grinned.
---
Kat leapt into the well in the mini-shrine. After several minutes of floating and sparklies everywhere, she set down in the Feudal Age well, and climbed out. Looking across the clearing, she saw Miroku.
"Miroku!" Kat called, running across to him. She thrust the backpack into his arms. "Keep that with you!" She ran off.
Five seconds later she ran back. "Guard it with your life!" She ran away, but five seconds later she was back.
"Oh yeah, whatever you do, don't open the bag!" Ran off. . .
Five seconds later: "Oh yeah, do NOT give it to Akkiko!"
Ran off, five seconds later: "Oh yeah, um, thanks!" She ran away again.
Miroku blinked. "Girls from the future sure are strange," he said, shaking his head.
Kat popped back through the well, meeting Meg at the back door.
"So where'd you stash the stuff?" Meg whispered.
"Not telling." Kat replied.
"Why not?"
"Tell me what you did to Kouga."
"No."
"Then I'm not telling you where I hid Akkiko's iced tea."
". . . Grr."
Akkiko popped up between them. "OH THE HUMANITY!! THEY STOLE MY ICED TEA!!!"
Kat and Meg= -_-;;
---
About half an hour later, Kagome, Kat, Akkiko, and Meg finally travelled through the well. Enter sparkles, etc, etc.
"Where the hell have you four been?" Inu-yasha demanded as they emerged.
Meg glared. "We've been working. That's all you need to know, puppy boy."
Inu-yasha glared back. Akkiko popped up between them. "If you two are going to have glaring matches every single -BEEP-in' time you meet, I want to go home."
Kat sweatdropped. "You seem a little tense, Akkiko."
"YOU TOOK AWAY MY ICED TEA!!"
Kat rubbed her ear. "Ow." Miroku sidled off somewhere. Akkiko saw him do this, and followed him.
"Where are YOU going off to?" She asked. He stopped suddenly, and turned, looking guilty.
"Uh . . . I was just going to . . . ah. . . .Eep!"
"Kat came here, didn't she?" Akkiko asked, grabbing the front of his robes and dragging him down several inches. "She gave you a backpack, didn't she?"
Miroku sweatdropped. "Er. . ."
"Give it to me!" Akkiko demanded, a very scary look on her face. What could poor Miroku do but what he did?
Akkiko grabbed the backpack with a squeal and began chugging iced tea. Miroku sweatdropped.
~ten minutes later~
Akkiko was bouncing off the . . . trees. Kat and Meg watched her, and then looked at each other. They glared at the Inu-yasha gang.
"Who gave Akkiko ICED TEA??" they asked dangerously.
Miroku shifted guiltily. "Um . . . that would be me!" He said brightly.
Kat and Meg loomed over him scarily. "YOU FOOL!!" They screamed.
"Why are you wenches getting so worked up?" Inu-yasha asked, arms crossed.
"You don't understand!" Meg screeched.
"Yeah," Kat said, looking very worried. "You don't know what kind of things Akkiko does when she's hyper!"
"Like that?" Kagome asked, and pointed as Akkiko bounced up to Miroku, an open can of iced tea in her hand. She grabbed her brother in a head-lock, and force-fed him the over-sugary drink.
"Oh, crap. . ." Kat said, smacking her forehead.
"You don't think it runs in the family, do you . . ." Meg trailed off as Miroku and Akkiko continued bouncing off the trees.
"Something tells me it does . . ." Kat said. Meg began beating her head against a tree.
"What's this?" Inu-yasha asked. He was rummaging through Meg's bag.
"ACK!" Meg shrieked, and threw herself defensively at Inu-yasha. "Don't touch that!"
"I was looking for my noodles!" he snapped, and held up a package. "Now what is this?"
Kat's eyes went wide. "Meg, that isn't a package of instant coffee, is it?"
Meg shifted. "Uh. . .no!" Her backpack fell open, and a thermos fell out, followed by a package of sugar complete with a spoon taped on, and some packets of cream they serve in restaurants.
Kagome and Kat glared. Meg sweatdropped. Shippo, Sango and Inu-yasha blinked cluelessly. Akkiko and Miroku went "Whee!" as they continued their hyper rampage.
"Ah. . ." Meg reached down, grabbing the fallen condiments in one fell swoop, then raced to Inu-yasha, knocking him over as she grabbed her precious package of coffee. Then -bounce- she leapt into a tree. Five seconds later. . .
Meg joined Miroku and Akkiko in their various hyper activities. The others sweatdropped.
"Freaky wench," Inu-yasha said, slurping on some ramen Kagome had cooked up for him.
"How do you put up with those two?" Sango asked Kat.
"The same way you put up with Miroku and his lecherous ways," her sister replied calmly.
Shippo shuffled away. . . "Shippo, give up the coffee," Kagome said.
"Damn!" the little kitsune said, and put down the thermos of instant coffee Meg had left lying around.
Kat twitched as she turned and saw Meg reach into her backpack and bring out a roll of duck tape. "SHIT!" she said, and ran over.
Inu-yasha blinked, then went back to his ramen. Suddenly his ears twitched.
"Kagome," he said seriously. "Get your bow."
"What? Why?" she asked.
Inu-yasha didn't answer; he unsheathed Tetsuiga and turned.
Kat wrestled the duck tape away from Meg and looked at Inu-yasha. "What's the issue?" she asked and her jaw dropped open.
Meg, Akkiko and Miroku came out of hyper-active mode for a few seconds and also gaped.
A cloud of youkai was flying straight at them.
