This is a request by "InuYasha Lover 123456"
Every since she was a little girl she wanted to be a rock star. She wanted everyone to hear her voice. She wanted to be the best of the best. She loved music right away. From the first sound of a drum she fell in love with it. She climbed to the top and no one could knock her down. Her friends cheered her along the way. She had her ups and down. She fell apart, and got back up. Every present she got had to do something with music. She loved to learn new notes to play and sing. She was gifted with the voice of an angle. She was gifted with music running through her body. Her name, Jasmine.
"Happy birthday Jasmine!" Shadow the Hedgehog said. "I can't believe you turn ten."
Jasmine blew out her candle on a cupcake Shadow made her. Well, his mom really made it, but he said he made it. Jasmine pulled out the candle and took a bit into her cupcake. Shadow and Jasmine have been friends ever since they were little. They could never break apart. They hung out every weekend. No one could come between then. No one could break them. No one could shatter their love for each other. They were in the same group of friends. They got to the same school. They do everything together. They couldn't wait till they were older. They would be able to do whatever they wanted with each other. They could share an apartment. They had dreams about staying friends forever.
"Thanks again, Shadow!" Jasmine said hugging Shadow.
"Sure. Anything for my best friend!"
The two friends were at Jasmine's house. It was getting late and soon the moon was in the air. They counted stars together. They pointed to a star and made up a story about how it came into the sky. Shadow loved hearing Jasmine talk on and on about it. She mostly talked about how it traveled by music. She stared to sing a song and Shadow grinned at the sound. He got lost in the stars and started to day dream.
"There's one more present my family and I got you." Shadow said sitting up.
"You already got me something. No more presents."
Shadow rolled his eyes and grinned at her. He got up and went into her house. His parents were in the house along with Jasmine's parents. He came back out with a big box. Jasmine sat up and sat on her knees. Shadow laid the long red box in front of her. Jasmine didn't know what was in the box. She thought of different items, but she would never guess what Shadow got her. He went out of his way for her. Shadow knew the one thing Jasmine always wanted but never got. She asked for this item all the time during Christmas and her birthday. Her parents couldn't find the money though, until Shadow came into their lives.
"You didn't have to do this." Jasmine said.
"I wanted too. You're finally in the double digits like me." Shadow said crossing his arms.
Shadow was a few months older than Jasmine. She looked down at the box and grinned. She started to rip off the wrapping paper. There was a long down box now. Jasmine pulled the tape off and slowly opened the box. There was bubble wrap around the item. She pulled the item out and gasp. She covered her mouth and looked at Shadow. He smiled at it and looked at the item he got her. Jasmine set her new red and black guitar down and jumped on Shadow. She hugged him so tight. She had tears fall down her eyes. The one thing she really wanted, and her best friend finally got it for her.
"Jasmine! You're cousins are here for the weekend." Jasmine's mother called out.
"We'll be right in!" Jasmine called out. "Thank you so much, Shadow. I don't know how I could ever repay you." Jasmine said turning back to Shadow.
"Just promise me one thing." Shadow said looking at the guitar.
"What?"
"When you become a rock star. Remember this guitar."
"I'll always use it on stage."
Shadow and his parents had to go home since Jasmine's cousins were here for the weekend. Jasmine had three cousins come into her house. They all wished her a happy birthday and each gave her a present. After her tenth birthday, Jasmine played on her guitar everyday. She wrote her first song. She posted videos of her singing and playing her guitar. More and more started to like her. She got request about singing different song titles. At school all Jasmine could talk about was her dream. Shadow wanted her to be happy. He wanted her dream to come true.
One day, Shadow went on Jasmine's page and shared the whole profile. He knew she needed a boost in the music business. Jasmine was in outside her house with her other music friends. She was close to them, but not as close as he was with Shadow. Jasmine played the guitar and sung. She is the leader of the band. Her band is called Rock Anglez. Shadow came one day and filmed them. He said it was for a school project, but that wasn't true. He posted the video on the internet and everyone loved their song. It was Jasmine's first song.
"Being on tour would be hard for a little girl." Jasmine's mother said.
"She'll be 13 when she's gone. It'll be good for her to grow up a little. Get a little taste of life."
There were two men standing outside Jasmine's house. Those two men were finding new stars. Jasmine was one of those stars they found. Shadow walked over to Jasmine's house and he saw the two men outside her house. Jasmine's mother let them in the house so they could talk some more with Jasmine. Her whole band was there. Shadow waited outside for her. He really wanted to see her. He noticed drums and guitars outside her house. He saw Jasmine's red and black guitar outside.
"I hope she doesn't forget about us." Shadow said walking away.
Shadow walked back to his house and never saw Jasmine after that. Jasmine made a decision for her whole family and band. Everyone was raging about Rock Anglez. They wanted more and more of them. Jasmine said yes to the tour and left everything behind. She wrote a hand written letter to each of her friends. She wrote a long letter to Shadow. She couldn't believe she was about to leave him for three years. They could still talk to each other over the phone. She could wave to him on TV. Maybe Shadow would be at one of her concert.
After a week of packing everything, Jasmine left everything behind her. She took her step onto the tour bus. They had her band on the sides so more people could see them. Her first day she cried and everything was a mess. Luckily she didn't have to up on stage. Her first stop was far away from home. Her last stop would be at home. Her family came with her on the tour since she was still a little girl. Jasmine cried on her mother's lap. She couldn't let Shadow go. She wanted him to go with her, but she knew he couldn't. He didn't know anything about music.
"How long is this tour?" Jasmine asked her mother.
"Three years. We have a lot of stops ahead of us."
"I hope Shadow and I keep in contact."
"I'm sure you will. Nothing can break you two apart."
Jasmine's mother hugged her daughter tight. All Jasmine could think about was her friends that she left behind. She was stuck on her tour bus everyday. She couldn't go outside without people asking for pictures. She became more and more popular every day. More and more people followed her on tour. Eventually, Jasmine forgot about some of her friends. She grew happier about her dreams finally coming true. She become a confident girl. She wasn't scared of anything. Once she was on stage nothing could break her down. She used her red and black guitar she got.
One year went by. Two years went by. Three years went by. Jasmine grew up into a teenager. Her voice changed. Her style changed. Her thoughts changed. Her friends changed. Her feelings changed. Her tour changed her. The way she looked at everything changed. She didn't act like a little kid anymore. She knew she had a job, and she had to keep up with it. She wrote tons of hit songs. She made 7 albums while she was on tour. She knew she made the right choice to leave everything behind her when she was ten years old. She was 13 now. Her tour was almost over. She was happy and sad about it. She needed a break from the tour life.
"I can't believe this is our last stop. My home town." Jasmine said looking out the window.
She was sitting with her red and black guitar on her lap. Her manger talked to her about this finally stop. He thanked her so much for saying yes three years ago. They made everything special for her. This was her final concert. She gave free passes to her family. Her cousins even came to see her. They got back stage passes as well. Her old friends were going to start high school in the fall.
"Thank you for making this tour real!" Jasmine yelled into her microphone. "Our dream wouldn't have come true if it wasn't for you guys! We love you!"
Jasmine closed off her final concert. Her fans started to leave. She had one final met and greet. She went back stage and changed her clothes. She went into a back room where the met and greet was happening. There was one last photo shoot with all her fans. Mostly everyone cried. Her cousins watched her while she met her other fans.
"I'm surprised Shadow didn't came." Sonic whispered to Manic.
"You know Shadow. He's dull and quite. He mean too."
"Did you guys like the concert?" Jasmine asked.
"Totally!" Sonic, Manic, and Sonia all said.
Sonic, Manic, and Sonia are Jasmine's cousins. They never spoke of Shadow near Jasmine. They didn't know if she would get upset or if she even remember Shadow. The three cousins were starting high school with their friends. Jasmine knew she had to go back to school. She did online school while she was on tour. Her mother made her pass each class or else she would have to quit her band while she was on tour. That would have broken her so much. Her tour was finally over. Jasmine and her family took their first step back into their house. Jasmine ran up to her room. Everything was the same as the day she left.
"It's good to be home." Jasmine said hugging her pillow.
There were a few weeks left of summer. Jasmine changed her room. She didn't like being a little kid anymore. She felt like an adult. Even though she was only 13 years old. She felt like she had her whole life planned out. She needed music in her life. After high school she could be a rock star again. She fame wasn't over though. Everyone knew her. There were some people who hated her and her music. A 13 year old girl shouldn't have that much power. Her fame died out though. After her tour was over people seemed to move on to the next best thing. Whenever Jasmine would walk the streets people would ask for pictures. She didn't mind that. She liked it. She had friends all over the world.
"You're first day is going to go well." Sonia said as she did Jasmine's hair. "It's just high school."
"Just high school?" Jasmine sighed. "What if people-"
"Oh who cares about what people think. You're a rock a star."
Jasmine thought to herself. Sonia was talking on and on about high school. Sonic and Manic were at home doing last minute school things. Sonia was ahead of the game. She helped Jasmine with high school. Tomorrow would be their first day. It's a good thing Jasmine would know her three cousin. She didn't know what to expect. She knew everyone knows her because of her music. However, some people wanted Jasmine's talent. Her music and her voice. Sonia slept over that night. She wanted to make sure Jasmine would wake up early on Monday morning. Although, it was Jasmine who had to take Sonia up.
"I got up at 4am everyday when I was on tour." Jasmine said.
"Yea, I got up at ten in the morning during the summer."
"You'll get used to it."
Jasmine and Sonia got ready for school together. They ate dinner. Jasmine couldn't stop talking about the bad things about high school. Sonia told her that everything was going to be alright. As the girls were eating their breakfast Sonic and Manic came into Jasmine's house. They were all ready for school. Sonic was telling Jasmine about the kids who go to the school. Sonic was very popular in school. Manic was with the band, but he only stayed with people who played drums like him. He was the leader of the whole band. Sonia is the type of girl everyone knows because of how nice she is. Jasmine didn't know if she would be able to fit in with everyone else.
"Just stay away from Scourge. He's bad news." Sonic said. "He'll hurt any girl."
"Please don't tell this story again." Manic said.
"It started this summer."
Manic face palmed himself and took a seat at the table. Sonic told his story about Scourge. He liked Jasmine's music too. Sonic had a picture of Scourge and showed it to Jasmine. She knew she had to stay away from him. Sonic made him sound like a mad man. Soon, everyone was off to school. Sonia drove them to school. Sonic, Manic, and Sonia all shared a care. Jasmine was glad she didn't have to share anything since she is an only child. Sonia parked the car and Jasmine got a funny feeling. She slowly opened the car door and got out.
"Oh Sonic!" Yelled a voice. "Who's your friend!?"
Sonic got out of the car and saw one of his friends running towards him. She stopped in front of Jasmine. Her eyes ran up and down Jasmine's body. She looked at Sonic with a glare.
"Amy, this is my cousin, Jasmine." Sonic said. "Jasmine this is Amy."
The two girls shook hands. Amy started to talk on and on about the school. She told Jasmine that she was going to fit right in. Amy was also a big fan of Jasmine's band. The bell rang and it was time to go to class. Sonia walked Jasmine to her first class. She wished Jasmine good luck with all her classes. When she walked into class all eyes were on her. Everyone knew who she was. She waved to the whole class and took a seat that was far away from everyone. However, Jasmine pulled up a seat next to another girl. Her face was stuffed into a book.
"I'm Cream!" Cream said lifting her face away from her book. "Wanna be friends?"
"Um, s-sure. I'm Jasmine."
"Manic talked about you. I bet you had a hard life. Being on tour and everything."
"Yea. It was hard at first, but then I got used to it."
Cream and Jasmine hit it off right away. Cream told Jasmine about their little group of friends. Cream was the sweetest girl in the group. Cream told Jasmine about everyone in her group of friends. Sonic is the leader of the group. Everything goes around him. Tails was a nerd when it comes to science. Knuckles is the toughest one. He sees the good in everyone. Amy is all about Sonic. She loves giving advice about love and boys. Blaze is all about marketing. She was the boss when it comes to planning anything. Silver loves swimming and tennis. He's all about sports. Rouge loves arts and she's always in the art rooms. Sally is all about math and taking control. She fights Sonic about the most simplest things.
"Everyone seems so... different." Jasmine said.
"We all get along. We're on big happy family."
The school day went fine for Jasmine. Most people would stop her in the hallway. Although, Sonic, Manic, or Sonia was right by Jasmine's side. Amy and Cream also helped Jasmine out when people were bugging her. Amy was tough when it comes to her friends. She told Jasmine a story when they had math class together about Scourge. Scourge was just as popular as Sonic is. Only he saw the bad things in life. Jasmine had first lunch. Sonic, Amy, Tails, Blaze, and Sally (Tails, Silver, Blaze, Knuckles, and Rouge had the other lunch) The lunch room was packed. Amy pointed out all the groups of kids.
"What about that guy?" Jasmine said pointing to the corner of the lunch room.
"That's just Shadow. He likes being alone."
"He doesn't talk at all now. I don't know why." Blaze said.
"He's real mean at some points." Sonic said. "I wouldn't go near him unless you really have too."
Jasmine looked at over Shadow. Her body got tense once she looked at him. He was wearing all black. He wasn't even eating lunch. Jasmine felt shivers go down her spine. Everyone else started to talk about how their first day was going. Jasmine wasn't paying attention at all. Her gaze was on Shadow. Her old best friends. Shadow was already starring at Jasmine. He never took his gaze off from Jasmine ever since she walked into the lunch room.
