Disclaimer: I don't own any of these character, not Inuyasha (he's mad cause I pulled on his ears…it seemed like a good idea at the time…), Not Sesshomaru (he threatened to kill me.), And I think Miroku's fan girls hurt me if I owned him. And all he rest of them I don't really care…

Authors note: This is my first story, so please be nice. Please help me out, give me ideas, and tell me what you think of Akara (I lied in my disclaimer I own her, but she the only one I own… Why can't I own Fluffy-sama…?) RR-

Chapter one:

Blackmail and Vacuum Cleaners

"So l-let me g-get this s-straight" InuyashaTaisho cried in between laughs " You want me to go to a Kikyo concert!" The hanyou's face had turnedmagenta from laughing so hard.

Kikyo Yuriko wasprobably most popular singer, for teenage girls (and perverted men). She had more than 1 C.D. out and, She sang a bit of rock, a bit of some soul-rock-blues thing, but mostly pop. Inuyasha hated pop. He REALLY hated pop!

But, Miroku on the other hand- He just couldn't resist a pretty girl. Let alone a beautiful pop-sensation. So of course he had to go, with back-stage passes. And he had the nerve to ask Inuyasha to with him. Sure Miroku was Inuyasha's best ,and only, friend for the past eleven years, but how come he ask him to go to a pop concert?

" Inuyasha," said Miroku calmly, " you owe me."

"Owe you? Owe YOU! Now that's a laugh!" Inuyasha started to laugh harder then before, if that was possible. "For what?"

"Remember when we were six and your brother was bored so he stuck your head up a vacuum, and your hair got stuck?"Miroku smirked.

"Um-no," Said Inuyasha a little to quickly.

"Well I do," said Miroku devilishly, "and look at these pretty pictures I just so happen to have of that very same insentient. Refresh your memory?" Miroku raised an eyebrow and grinned at his cunning blackmail maneuvers. Inu-Yashastood, back straigh, in horror as Miroku waved several photos in the air, and grinned very evilly. Indeed there was a picture of mini-Inu with his hair stuck in a vacuum cleaner, a Dirt Devil in fact. Ever since then Inuyasha happened to be afraid of that particular brand of vacuums much to his brother's delight. (N/A SO sorry Inuyasha. I feel really bad now…)

Oh, Damnit! Inuyasha thought. Where the hell did he get those! " Fine! You win but I don't have to like it," snarled the hanyou. His face turned quickly into a scowl, and his arms came up to fold at his chest in an " I hate you so much right now!" look.

"Good," smiled Miroku, "Oh, and Inuyasha, I can't afford the tickets, or the backstage passes so… since your dad is a big ass CEO company owner and all… could you um…," the human boy scratched his face, as he tried to think of what to say, "Oh well, you know."

Inuyasha rolled his eyes "What happened to paycheck, after all you work for my dad!" Miroku was Inuyasha's personal schedule keeper. His job was to know what Inuyasha was doing, and to keep him out of trouble. It was the easiest job in the world considering all he had to do was direct Inu-Yasha where to go, and pretend like he knew what he was doing!

"My wages suck, come on, Inu buy the stuff, or I'll show these photos to every one at school!" Miroku flashed the black mail pictures of Inu in front of his face and smiled.

"Fine I'll buy the stupid concert crap! But you have enough from your wages at work so don't even think I'll buy souvenirs for you! And ever tell anyone I went to Kikyo concert I'll tell that new student- what's her name-"

"Sango? Oh, wait…Dammit!"

"Yeah that's it! Sango Taijiya, I'll tell her all about your little collection of a certain magazine!" Inuyasha held up his right hand making in to a bunny "You know hipity-hopity." The hanyou smiled evilly.

Too bad for Miroku that Inuyasha had already told Sango about every little perverted thing Miroku owned and did. He could tell just by Miroku's actions that if he didn't warn her, she would be Miroku's next victim. So, evenif Miroku didn't tell a single soul about it, he couldn't ask Sango out. She'd kick his sorry ass big time!

Kagome Higurashi ran quickly across the street. Now a days it it seemed like she was always in a hurry, that is ever since she began working for Kikyo. To bad she couldn't preform for real, it was all because of that accident…

Instinctively her fingers went to that spot on her thigh. "Ouch," she withdrew her from her thigh. No matter how lightly she touched her scar it still seemed to sting. Even if it was almost a year ago. Almost… It had been almost a year since the accident. Even though the memory of it burned so freshly in her mind. It was almost a year ago.

BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! BEEEEEEEEEEP!

"Kyaaaa!" Kagome realized that she had stop in the middle of the road to daydream. She turned bright red and continued crossing the street. That was the third time this week that she had stoped to think and almost got hit. What was it with her and cars? She never had good luck anywhaere near a car!

Suddenly she looked up and realized she had arrived outside ofMisty Wind's (N/A excuse the name -) Record company.

"Name?" asked the security guard, miserably. Although, Kagome was pretty sure any one standing a small booth for hours would wold be miserable too.

"Higurashi, Kagome." She said waving around a security pass in the air.

"Come on in," the guard grumbled miserably, as he open the gates so Kagome could enter the company.

Every since the accident Kagome worked for Kikyo. Writing and singing songs for the popstar. Kikyo couldn't sing to save her life, and since Kagome could be mistaken for the star, Kagome sang for her. Just in case anyone caught her singing they'd think she was Kikyo. And, poor Kagome, she couldn't sing in a crowd for real. Again, it was all because of the accident! No one would want to listen to a popstar sing with an ugly scar on their leg. Popstars were supposed to be perfect, some one you could look up to, and with a scar that big on her leg no would think of looking her way. At least that's what Naraku, her manger said. Around here, Naraku was boss, and whatever he said was like the words of God himself.

"Hey Kagome!" said Kikyo's fashion designer/advisor suddenly appearing out of nowhere. Her name was Akara and she was totaly awsome! "Hey? Why isn't Sango with you?"

SangoTaijiya was Kagome's bodyguard. (Poor Miroku!) As well as her best friend. She was alwaysaround Kagome, even though working for Kikyo took them all over the world, Sango was still willing to go with her, to protect her.No matter where they were, america, China, Australia, or the U.K., she was there by her side.

"Hi Akara! Sango is coming later." Kagome exclaimed chipperly.

"Really? Oh when she gets here, tell her that I fixed her boomerang thingie," Akara said cheerfully, "I'd tell her myself, but Kikyo has major demands that keep me working over time on her costume for tonight."

"Okay," Kagome smiled. Akara was one of the few people who never seem to grow up. She was three years older then Kagome but acted like a child. Evenif her looks were of an 18-year-old, Kagome would swear she was just a baby. Her eyes were gray and her sliver-blonde hair reached back in a stylish but still like a little kid way. Akara could be serious, some times, but was she was mostly spastic. Out of everyone in Kikyo's staff, Kagome was pretty sure Akara was the only one she could trust.

Shecracked smiled and bounced down the hallway to finish Kikyo'sbrand new concert outfit before tonight, her hair waved behind her gracefully. She turned and waved to Kagome, "Good luck tonight!"

"Thanks Akara!" Kagome said. A few minutes ago she was miserable as the security guard was rude,but it only took one person saying hi to cheer her up! Now that she was happy nothing could bring her down!

"KAGOME!" or not.

"Your two minutes late!" Naraku snapped

"Sorry," Kagome smiled weakly.

"There is no excuse for being late!" he growled, his eyes flashing dangerously. "Now, we need to get you ready for tonight. It's supposed to be live, and it will be so you need to practice!"

Inuyasha sat bored in his seat thinking about the " sugar plum fearies" mentioned on LOST the night before. Now, that's the kind of stuff he was interested in, NOT some stupid diva! How could Miroku stand sitting there, listening to some diva sing for hours? But no, there he was, more drooling then listening.

Inuyasha watched Kikyo dance and sing, butsomething didn't sound right to his ears, and so he stuck them up on his head. The hanyou's twisted them around as he listened intently. There was something strange about her voice. Sure it was pretty, very pretty, but it didn't sound like it was coming from her... wait!... Miroku, do even realize she lip-sing?" Inuyasha asked as he leaned back in his chair, waiting for his best friend's response.

"Huh?" Miroku straitened up once he realized the hanyou was talking to him, whiping the drool from his face.

"Your beloved Kikyo's voice, it isn't her own." the hanyou laughed evily at his genius.

"Oh, well, just don't say that once we go back stage…" Miroku's eyes glazed over in the way they did wen he was watching girl.

"And when is that?" Inu questioned his fun having now been squashed.

"When the concert is over right after this song." Miroku was now possitively beeming with delight.

Kikyo mouthed the last of the words and the music ended. "Thank you all for coming, tonight! Really, it means a lot to me!" she said and walked to the left side of the stage to exit the arena.

"Shit!" Inu thoguht unhappily, for it was now time to go backstage!

The two teenage boys headed towards a small entrance where approxemetly 12,000 fans stood begging to get through the doors to see the star.Two bulky security guards stood there as well holding up the screaming fans with the threat of fire-arms. "Do you have passes?" asked the guard on the right. Inuyasha shoved to passes in his face. The guard shrugged uncomfortably. "Right this way sirs."

Inuyasha and Miroku passed the guards. They quickly walked along a dark hallway, and the cheers of the fans drifted slowly away until they were no longer audible.

"Miroku, remind me why I had to come again."Inu complained like a child.

"Because I am blackmailing you, so I can see Kikyo and maybe tell her that you're the pervert that had to see her." The boy smiled coldly.

"Oh joy, I can hardly wait!" Inuyasha said sarcastically, rolling his eyes.

"Oh and then there's the freaky guy- Miroku. Even this best friend warned me about him. Then again that guy isn't the nicest." Sango was walked along the corridor with Kagome, explaining all the kids at school to her..

"I'll be starting in that school next week!" kagome cheered wih delight, "Finally I had sometime to take the transfer exam, to bad it made me late tothe studio." Kagome open the door next to her.

Thwack!CLUNK!Smack!THUMP! (a/n you can thank my friend for the amazing sound effects)

"Ow," a boy about the same age as Kagome was lying on the ground looking up with a confused look on his face.

"Opps so sorry," Kagome apologized to the boy extending her hand to help him up.

The boy immediately recovered from the blow. "Stupid girl can't watch where you're going!"

"Well, excuse me for not being able to see through doors! I said I was sorry!" Kagome snapped. This guy was rude!

"Inuyasha," a boy next to him said calmly, hoping to hush him up.

"Shut up Miroku!" snapped "Inuyasha." Who were these boys... oh ya!

"Hey Sango are these…?" Kagomeasked with a stunned tone to her voice.

"Yeah, they are, these are the boys we were just talking about."Sango sounded extremely annoyed at this fact so Kagome dropped it.

Miroku, who seemed to suddenly notice Sango,out-of-the-blue, grabbed her hands. "Telling her how handsome and romantic I am, no doubt!"

"You wish." Sango growled loudly, slapping him as hard as she could.

He than turned his attention to Kagome. "Kikyo, how beautiful you look today!"

Sango and Kagome both laughed at Miroku's expense.

"What?" said Miroku stupidly, girl's were so wierd.

Inuyasha rolled his eyes, "This girl isn't Kikyo, she may look like it, but I can garuntee you she's not."

"How would you know?" Sango asked Inuyasha curiously, hopping he was just joking, and didn't seriously know the truth.

"The same way I could tell you Kikyo was lip-singing." (Kagome and Sango exchanged glances) " You see, my ears are that of a dog's,which enabled me to recognize that the sound wasn't coming from that annoying bitch." he said indicating Kikyo as the subject of his nasty name-calling."And, because of them, I also recognized this bitch as theone who was singing."

"Hey! That's just plain mean!" cried Kagome turning around to hide her face from the people before her. She knew she was going to cry, and didn't want them to see her. She had low self-esteem problems, and people like this jerk only made them worse.

"That why I said it!"

"Well why are you here anyway," Sango asked, hoping to distract the two from fighting.

"To meet Kikyo," said Miroku, as he turned to Kagome, "If you aren't her who are you?"

"My name is Kagome Higurashi"

The door behind them open suddenly, knock in to Inuyasha, again.

"Right this way, Miss Kikyo." Akara came through the door. Kikyo followed close behind her.

"Um… Inuyasha I suggest you move to another spot…" said Kagome trying to suppress her laughter.

"Kagome… Who are these… people?" Kikyo asked look at the two boys as if the were maggots.

"Um...they have backstage passes to see you."

"I'm Inuyasha Taisho, and this my assistant, Miroku."

"Assistant?" whimpered Miroku.

"Taisho, huh? Where have I heard that before… Oh! We're stay at your mansion this week!"Kikyo said happily!

"What?"cried the teenagers, with the exception of Akara. "Since when!"

"This is going to be interesting!" Akara laughed.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Inu-Yasha and Kagome scream in unison.

"I'm living in hell now!" Inu finished in agony.

Phew! Finally done! This feels like I took forever! I originally wrote this story in November 2004, but I couldn't get a fanfiction account, so I waited I while, and then I showed to my best friend who totally flipped over it! So I tried again to get a fanfiction account, but it would not let me so now, finally I made a new screen name just so I could post this!

Anyway enough with the technical difficulties! I really hope everyone enjoyed this, it's my first fanfic so be nice! (Laugh) I really like suggestions; I'll answer any questions as well. See ya in the next chapter, I hope!
