So the main idea of this fic came from the Song Waking up in Vegas by Katy Perry. But that won't happen till later chapters. I am also playing around with POV's so there will be some repeating, but that is what happens in POV's. If it is too confusing let me know. Also to try to keep some perspectiive to ages there is a large age difference between the two main characters. But I will try to make it legal. That's all the disclaimers I have so enjoy.

Chapter 1
Rin's account
Riding along the street is a young girl named Rin, with a heavy backpack and holding a cell phone to her ear.

“Ok, I will… I know… Ok I will talk to you when I get there… No, I’m riding my bike… Alright, tell Kagome I say ‘Hi’.” Hangs up and shoves the phone back into her pocket

Kami! I swear, Shippo is more of a girl than I am. He just loves to talk. Sometimes I think that spent my whole summer working my butt off at Hot Dog on a stick in that ridiculous uniform being ogled by creepy guys, to pay for this cell phone, just to keep in constant contact with him. I mean don’t get me wrong I love my BFF to pieces. But jeez!

Let me give you a little background on my pal, Shippo. Shippo and I have been best friends since I was 8. We met over a crowded playground and that was it. Budz 4 Life! We’ve done so much together. But in our youth we wanted to break free of the pressures of life and run away together. Actually we attempted such things three different times, with no success. The first time we tried we were like 10 and decided that we loved the park that was a block from his house. Mostly because there was this awesome fort on it and we wanted to stay there for ever. But I guess forever lasted until dinner time and we got hungry and gave up. The second time we planned it out way better. We wanted to move into the mall. It was all set. We would hide in the mall after closing, once the place was closed we would set up our home in the mattress store that was there. We would shower and exercise in the gym and seeing as we wanted it to be on the up and up, we decided to get jobs in the food court so that we could get the free meals and pay for stuff. We didn’t want to steal. But on our first night try we realized that all the stores lock up the locations with these big gates so we couldn’t get in to any place and then the over night security guard caught us and called our parents. The third time wasn’t as cool, but we decided that we were thinking it out too much and decided to be spontaneous. We packed a big backpack each and bought a greyhound ticket. What the idea was here was to take the bus to its final stop and wherever that was we would set up our new home. But the folly here was the bus we chose was one of those express buses, you know the kind that doesn’t make many stops and does basically a round trip. Well we fell asleep and when we woke up, thanks to the driver we were back where we started.

With so many failures under our belt, we decided that running away was not the right move. We put aside our plans for the future for a few years. That is until one infamous day, where we snuck in to a movie that changed our lives. By this time it wasn’t just me and Shippo, it also includes our new lackey, Kohaku. Kohaku is the little brother to Shippo’s older sister’s best friend. He’s an odd duck, but he fits into our little clique well. So one fateful afternoon the three of us decided to go to the local movie house and watch a movie. But because of our age we were limited to a few choices, the one that caught all of our attention was the based on true events movie, 21. It was a movie about some college students that learned to count cards and went on to make some serious cash in Vegas. We fell in love with the movie and the idea that you can make some real money in such a cool way that we then decided that our new goal in life was to become professional card players and make our fortune in Vegas. We saw the movie three more times in the theaters and all went out bought the DVD when it came out. One day while we were at Shippo’s house, his grandmother, Kaeda watched the movie with us to see why we were always talking about it and watched it like a million times. At the end she suggest a few movies from her time that would be along the same type of story. One in which was Oceans 11 with the “Rat Pack” or I think that was what she called them. It was a cool movie, but we didn’t think that we could pull off a big heist like that and besides there was only three of us and I don’t think we could do that with our limited crew.

Because we thought that our scheme for riches beyond our wildest dreams would require outside recruitment. I came up with the brilliant idea to start a club at school. I mean we weren’t the most popular group, maybe one of the most talked about, but not popular. So we needed to figure out how to get people interested into coming in to our group. The other hard part would be getting the stiff shirts in the administration to ok it. I have been known to be very persuasive. I was the one that got approved to juggle fire for the talent show. Even though they said that doing so indoors posed a great fire hazard, which in hind sight was not that great. I did get some burns on my legs and lightly burn some of the stage curtains, but no one got hurt. The meeting with the principal went ok, I mean he was hesitant to allow gambling in the school. But I told him that it was a great way to teach math to people that are having trouble in math in a fun way. I even had proof. My math teacher, Mr. Jaken could contest that my C average came up to a B with my new found love of blackjack. I also had to promise that no money could change hands as gambling was illegal and no one wants to go to jail for an after school club. I also had to find a facility advisor to monitor the group. I knew instantly who would be perfect, my math teacher. He was an older teacher, a few years or maybe even semesters away from retiring that he wouldn’t care what kind of shenanigans we got in to so as long as he didn’t have to take anyone to the hospital.

Once we got the group together we made tasteful signs that invited anyone to our non cash card games. Every so often we get a few people involved but usually its just our crew. But we quickly found ourselves hating playing in threes. So Shippo asked his adopted brother Sota to come and join. He’s a little younger than us, but he helped fill our gap.

Quick info about our group that we dubbed the Adopted 3. All three of us were adopted through the deaths of our immediate families. My parents were killed at gun point by some robbers. I now live with nice family. Shippo’s family passed on in a fatal car crash, now he lives with his grandmother and his older sister Kagome. To whom I admire greatly. And even Kohaku has a sad family passing story, but I have never heard the story. He sort of hates to talk about it. But now he lives with his older sister Sango, who is Kagome’s Best friend. The only thing we know is that the two were wards of the state, until Sango turned 18 and legally adopted her younger brother. Which I think was so awesome. But the mystery surrounding his parents death makes me imagine what happened. A part of me thinks that they were trouble with the law, but I bet its something way less cool, just because that would make Kohaku cooler, and that just isn’t the case.

Now back to the story. My main goal since the start of the group was to get the guys older sisters to join the group. They were in the popular scene and that could bring more players. Especially as they both had boyfriends. Kagome was with a incredibly handsome guy named Inuyasha and Sango was with a equally nice looking guy, how ever he had a wandering eye that got him into much trouble, Miruku. But my chances got taken away when they all graduated. Now they are like snobby University kids that don’t really have the time to “play” with us high schoolers.

This morning was already shaping up to be a long day. With Shippo’s phone call, I had remembered that we had a club meeting today, but our advisor wasn’t going to be at school today. So we had to arrange to meet off school property. So now I am leaving for school early so that I can meet up with Kohaku and his sister. You see Sango being Kohaku’s legal guardian she was going to school and working. On Club 21 days she would have to swing by the high school to pick up Kohaku and take him home before she goes to work. But I wanted to get there to tell them that we were having the meeting at Kagome’s and that she said that she would give him a ride home when we were done. Kagome is so sweet, and she so genuinely cares for her little brother that she doesn’t mind helping us out and playing hostess, and anything to make things easier on Sango. She has so much on her plate that anything I can do to help her, the more I feel better.
