Mall Karaoke!
Disclaimer: I own nothing Inu-Yasha or cool!
Dedication: To all insane InuYasha fans out there!
Kagome and all of her friends were at the mall. Sesshou-Maru was off somewhere hightech, Koga was pranking the population along with Shippou, and Miroku was drooling over the display at Victoria's Secret.
"Miroku is such a perv." Sango muttered, glaring at him. She switched her Hot Topic bag onto her shoulder and ajusted her department store bag in her other hand.
"That doesn't stop you from liking him." said Rin, smiling with a mischievous grin. She stuck a blue tounge at Sango. Sango turned to glare at her.
"Just like Sesshou-Maru being a jerk and a rich brat boy doesn't stop you liking him." Rin blushed uncontrollably, the lollipop she had been sucking on falling to the floor. Wordlessly, she picked it up and threw it away.
"Hey, look, what's that crowd doing?" asked Kagome, pointing to large crowd surrounding a stage. Sango and Rin shrugged and were about to walk past it when a show-biz guy on the stage yelled;
"THIS IS...MALL KARAOKE! WITH YOUR HOST, ME, HANK PRETUNIT!"
Rin and Kagome swung their heads around and noticed the cameras. "Is this for T.V.?" murmured Rin, eyes shining. Hank unwittingly answered their question.
"THIS IS THE NEW REALITY SHOW WHERE WE CHOSE A RANDOM AUDIENCE MEMBER AND HAVE THEM SING A SONG! ANY SONG AT ALL! THE AUDIENCE DECIDES IF THEY LEAVE OR NOT! THE ONE WITH THE MOST CHEERS GETS A WEEK'S TRIP TO UNIVERSAL STUDIOS IN ORLANDO, FLORIDA, USA! PLUS 150,000 YEN SPENDING MONEY, CONVERTED INTO US DOLLARS!"
Everybody went crazy! The girls leaped up and down with excitment. Hank came into the audience. He tapped a girl on the shoulder. She squealed and ran up onto the stage. She was wearing a plain white top with blue jeans that had a red shine when the floresent lights hit them.
"Now what is your name?" Hank asked.
"I'm..I'm Yumi! Hi!" she waved energetically to the camera.
"And you will be singing...?"
"Toxic, by Britney Spears." She sounded rather breathless. Hank looked at the soundboard. He got the thumbs up.
"Yumi...ready?" She clutched a microphone and nodded. He stepped away, and she started to sing. She was horrible. Her voice squeaked and cracked and all of the notes were off-key. She ran from the stage crying when the crowd gave it's verdict.
"Not everyone can be a superstar!" said Hank, calling up a guy. This guy's name was Chad. He sang "Ice, Ice, Baby" to good results.
"Now, whoever the pink spotlight falls on, will be our next contestant!" The lights went out. A few people screamed out of shock, not out of terror. The pink spotlight swept through the audience, lighting up several peoples faces before falling on...Kagome. She stood in shock.
"You go, girl!" shouted Sango, over the crowd's cheers of encouragement and moans of disappointment.
"M-me?" stammered Kagome, looking at Rin and Sango. They nodded excitedly. She was ushered up to the stage by the waiting crowd.
"Well, welcome, glitter girl!" said Hank with very cheesy smile. Kagome glanced at her outfit. It was a silver sequined halter top, with purple sequins spelling the symbol "Love". Her jeans were normal blue jeans, escept that she had rinestoned the pockets. Her sandals were dotted with glass gems and sequins.
"What are you gonna sing?"
Kagome thought and thought, and thought of one that was a cute song she had heard once on the radio. Sheeven remembered the name!
"Sugar Rush, by the A-Teens!" she said. The opening bars echoed. "I dedicate this song to a special someone, who doesn't know thatthey are."
"Su-u-ug-a-ar Ru-u-ush...
I get a high whenever you're around
Sweeping from my head to my toes
I gotta get my feet back on the ground
Cuz you make me go out of my way
Crossing the line making me say what I have in mind
You make me so excited
And I don't wanna fight it
I start to blush
You are my Sugar Rush
Ain't nothing better baby
Is it for real or maybe?
I start to blush
You are my Sugar Rush!" Bright pink, blue and green spotlights danced on and off the stage, lighting up her outfit, and making her sparkle. As she started the second chorus, she spotted Inu-Yasha in the crowd, his face momentarily lit up by a green light. A warm bubbly feeling arose in her stomach and she sang from her heart.
"I got a sweet tooth and a taste for you
It might be too obvious but
I can't help my self from what I do
Cuz you make me go out of my way
Crossing the line
Making me say what I have in mind
You make me so excited
And I don't wanna fight it
I start to blush
You are my Sugar Rush
Ain't nothing better baby
Is it for real or maybe?
I start to blush
You are my Sugar Rush
Baby you're my Sugar Rush
I get weak and talk too much
You're the sweetest thing I ever tasted
Baby you're my Sugar Rush
I get weak and talk too much
Cuz you make me go out of my way
Crossing the line
Making my say what I have in mind
You make me so excited
And I don't wanna fight it
I start to blush
You are my Sugar Rush
Ain't nothing better baby
Is it for real or maybe?
I start to blush
You are my Sugar Rush
Baby you're my Sugar Rush
I get weak and talk too much
You're the sweetest thing I ever tasted
Baby you're my Sugar Rush
I get weak and talk too much
You are my Sugar Rush!"
There was silence for ten seconds. Then the audience erupted with screams and cheers! The audience was going wild!
"Whoa!" said Hank, stepping back up on stage. "Where the heck did that come from?" The people cheered even louder!
Kagome stepped off the stage and was besiged by her friends, who were yelling their congradulations. But Kagome only saw the image of Inu-Yasha, stilll lit up with the green. She still felt that warm, bubbly feeling. But...nobody knew whom she dedicated it to, so what could possibly go wrong?
Well? How is it?
