Breakaway

Chapter 3: Inuyasha Can... Sing?

Kagome tapped her pencil on her notebook staring at the board, she was now in grade one and was in a split class, grade one and two so naturally, both Inuyasha and Sesshomaru were in her class. She was glad to have Sesshomaru back in her class, last year; because he went to grade one she didn't have him in her class. She never saw him because he had recess and never snack time, that and he had a full day of school. It was her and Inuyasha's first day of grade one. She looked at the clock noticing the big hand was on the 12 and the little hand was on the two, which meant one hour left. She sighed; glad she was able to tell time by now.

It's been two years since Inuyasha, Sesshomaru and herself had met, and they had been closer then ever. Sure she still had her little fights with Inuyasha once and a while but Sesshomaru always came between them, without saying a word of course. Sadly, Miroku worked even more now and he wasn't able to join her and the Takahashi brothers as much, but once and a while he did. She turned to the side noticing Aya, Yui, and Meka were staring at her, she remembered them from JK. They were the 'snotty girls'. They hated Kagome's guts for one reason; she was always with Inuyasha and Sesshomaru. It was grade one and two, and now was the time when the girls had crush's on the cute boys while the boys ran away… all of them except Miroku. Of course both Takahashi brothers were the most popular ones for there unusual hair colour and eye colour. She was hated by all girls because of that reason, but she didn't care. She wasn't girly enough to hang with them anyways; she was just fine with her three boys.

She jumped hearing the teacher call her name, "Kagome, what is the answer to six plus eight."

Before the teacher could even finish the question she answered, "fort-teen."

Everyone gasped as she rolled her eyes, it wasn't like it was a hard question, but she guessed to them it was. She was still the smartest in the class and found her work boring. She had no interest in it. The only plus side was she got rid of her JK and SK teacher. How she hated those two years.

When the teacher turned back to the board, she began tapping her pencil on the corner of her desk. She looked back at the clock noticing only fifteen minutes had past. She sighed again beginning to draw to suppress her boredom that was until a piece of paper landed on her desk. She looked at the person next to her giving him a look as to, 'who this from.'

Miroku gave off a grin as he leaned over to whisper in her ear, "Read it and find out."

Kagome nodded opening it as she popped her gum noticing the messy handwriting right away. 'Inuyasha' she thought as she looked over to him. He waved from the end of the row while smiling. She sighed beginning to read his note…

Hey what did you want to do after school? Go to our house or your house? Or the arcade? I could ask my nanny to drop us off if you want. There's the park too you know. Write back.

Inuyasha and Sesshomaru

Kagome sighed looking over to her two best friends. Sadly their teacher knew that they talked too much and separated her Sesshomaru and Inuyasha apart. She didn't like it considering that she had no other friends around her except Miroku, but she knew better then to bother him during school. His father wanted good grades and he needed to pay attention in school. But Miroku being who he was, the girls always distracted him, especially when they had their little pink dresses. Being kids, the girls would run in them showing a little more then normal. She found Miroku quite disgusting. She knew that older boys did that but they were six, turning seven. She sighed taking her pencil out beginning to write back…

I can't I got singing lessons after school today. You know that. Remember? The teacher I don't like!

Kagome

She tapped Miroku on the shoulder handing him the note. She watched as it passed through all the kids her age to Inuyasha. She watched him read it and saw his expression sadden. She kind of felt guilty but waited for him to reply. Seeing him scribbling something back on it, she watched again as it past through the many kids. Taking it from Miroku she read it…

You ALWAYS have singing lessons. I know you're forced to take it, but can't you skip it or something? Because of it we don't play as much anymore. Only on the weekends. Come on, skip it and come on over to play.

Inuyasha and Sesshomaru

Kagome sighed seeing the sad face on the bottom of the note. She pressed her pencil on the paper writing a reply. She popped her gum again as she read it over a couple of times before sending it. But before she could give it to Miroku she heard the teacher's voice boom throughout the room, "Miss Higurashi, that's the second time today, gum in the garbage." Kagome took a deep breath glad it had nothing to do with the note. She stood up as the 'snotty girls' giggled. She threw her gum in the garbage and walked back to her desk. She looked up at the teacher, once she turned her head Kagome popped another piece of gum in her mouth beginning to chew it as she picked the note back up and sent it to Inuyasha and Sesshomaru.

I'm sorry, but I have to. Mom's orders, otherwise I move back with her. And I rather not have camera's following me twenty four seven. I actually found a camera man a couple of weeks ago. It seems they found me. Kind of weird how they're so interested with me when I'm not the famous singer here.

Kagome

She tapped Miroku again.

"You know, this is getting annoying." He whispered to her.

"Sorry." She whispered back shoving it his hand to pass it along. She waited for a reply back as she looked to the clock. 'Half an hour' she thought counting down until her first day of school was over. She had to admit she missed only having to go to school for half the day. She snapped out of her thoughts seeing the crunched up note in front of her.

Well you know it kind of makes sense. I mean you suddenly disappear from your mother of course they would look for you. Why it took so long I don't know but I don't care either. But you know, I bet one of these days you will be a famous singer with loads of people following you and wanting your signature. Come to think of it, I've never heard you sing before.

Inuyasha and Sesshomaru

Kagome smiled only having one thing to say to his little note…

I've never heard you play the guitar before, or Sesshomaru on the drums.

Kagome

She looked over to Inuyasha seeing him frown passing the note to Sesshomaru to read. She smiled sweetly to the two boys seeing Inuyasha ripping another piece of paper and scribbling something on it…

Well then we'll have to play/sing for each other…

Inuyasha and Sesshomaru

Kagome was about to reply when the teacher came up to her. Quickly she threw the note to the ground hoping the teacher didn't see. She knew how strict her teacher was with passing notes. Luckily her teacher was half blind and didn't notice the note on the ground "Yes?" Kagome asked politely.

"Miss Higurashi what is the answer to number six?"

Kagome paused not quite knowing what the class was doing. She looked down to her book noticing it wasn't open. She herd the 'snotty girls' giggling once again in the background and she didn't like it, it just made her madder enabling her to think. She looked back up and saw Inuyasha mouthing something. She squinted at him trying to make out his words, "twenty-three?" She answered. She looked up to her teach with hopeful eyes, so far in her two years in school any question that the teacher asked she never got wrong. She took a deep breath as the teacher nodded. She breathed a sigh of relief as the teacher went back to her lesson. Before she could continue the bell rang. Kagome smiled brightly, glad school was finally over. She didn't think grade one was that hard. Not that it was hard for her but they didn't even learn anything in math and they were already doing addition. She was about to walk over to Inuyasha to thank him when the 'snotty girls' ran over to him grabbing onto his arm like leaches. She sighed turning right around and exited the building; she didn't have time to deal with the girls. Once outside she adjusted her book bag strap looking out for Inuyasha and Sesshomaru nanny's car. Ever since her father got a job Inuyasha and Sesshomaru's nanny picked her and Miroku up and dropped them off. She liked it glad to have just a little more time with the Takahashi brothers.

Kagome opened the back seat car door jumping in as she smiled, "Hi!"

"Good afternoon Kagome, did you not wait for the others?"

Kagome frowned, "After I saw Yui, Aya and Meka come over I decided to ignore them." Kagome knew their nanny knew about the 'snotty girls'. This started becoming a routine since the first moved into Miroku, Inuyasha and her SK class near the end of the year.

She looked out the window seeing Inuyasha and Sesshomaru walking down the steps with all three girls hanging off them. She shook her head seeing Miroku trying to fit in wanting as much attention as Inuyasha and Sesshomaru.

Inuyasha smiled at Aya who was latched onto him while Yui and Meka were on Sesshomaru. He looked over to Sesshomaru no expression on his face as usual but Inuyasha could tell Sesshomaru was getting annoyed. He had to admit, he was getting quite annoyed to, but didn't saying anything knowing they could get back at him, or Kagome for that matter. Both Sesshomaru and himself knew how much Kagome and the 'snotty girls' loathed each other. He didn't like hurting Kagome, not knowing how he exactly was, but he knew he was, and knew Sesshomaru knew as well. He reached the car as the girls started whining.

"We have to go alright? Goodbye." Inuyasha took a deep breath trying to calm himself from yelling at the girls. He pulled his arm away about to open the door to sit next to Kagome when Aya grabbed his arm pulling him back to hug him. "Bye Inu." She whispered to him walking off with Meka and Yui close behind. He sighed opening the door to sit next to Miroku while Miroku hoped in in the middle. To Inuyasha, Kagome was top of the list, she always came first but from guys, Miroku was his 'home boy' as they said it on the television show Inuyasha watched with Miroku after dinner. Sure he liked Kagome a lot but sometimes she didn't like everything guys liked, so that's where Miroku came in. Yep his life was going great until he noticed Kagome's expression when he looked at her, "You okay Kagome?"

Kagome quickly smiled at him, hiding her true feelings, "Just peachy keen, now lets get going." She said crossing her arms over her chest as she looked out the window.

Inuyasha sighed wondering what he did this time, or what they did this time. Kagome may not have acted much like other girls but she still had the mood of girls. How they always changed so quickly, he hated that. He himself crossed his arms over his chest looking the other way.

Miroku being the smallest was stuck in the middle of Kagome and Inuyasha, "Come on you two, not one of these again. I'm always stuck in the middle, it's not fair!"

Sesshomaru turned his head to face his brother and Kagome. He just shook his head at the two, both of them noticing.

At the same time Inuyasha and Kagome both yelled, "We're not alike!" They both looked at each other then turned the heads to the window once again.

Miroku just stared in confusion at Sesshomaru, "How do you two know what he's saying without him actually saying it?" He yelled in frustration. Through out the whole two years, he's always been the one not able to understand a thing Sesshomaru said, or didn't say.

Kagome dropped her bag on the ground taking her shoes off. She looked up the stair giving off a big sigh. She turned to her cousin Miroku, "Wish me luck?"

Miroku gave her a look that said, 'what-are-you-talking-about' "Kagome, it's not like your facing your dad because you did something wrong."

Kagome snorted walking up the first step, "Sure feels that way."

Miroku shook his head taking his jacket off throwing it in the pile, "Kagome, deal with it alright? You're a great singer; you should use your talent. Hey, maybe you can be in the talent show next week?"

Kagome stared at him, "I only started singing six months ago…"

"But you're good!"

Kagome shook her head, "Not good enough for a talent show."

Miroku smiled slightly, "You know Kagome, our school only goes up to grade six, it's not like were competing with teenagers. That and grade one is the first year your allowed."

"Your point being?"

"Start practicing"

"Still no point to your comment."

"I signed you up"

"WHAT!"

"You're signed up for singing a song for this Friday's talents show for the parents. It will be great Kagome, your first performance."

"I'm not going to be a singer! Not now not ever!" She yelled racing up the stairs towards her singing class. She opened the door to come face to face with her singing teacher. "Morning Suzuki-sensei." She said with a sweet voice walking over to her seat beginning her two hour lesson.

Inuyasha walked into his house in silence staring over at his brother, he was quite… then again he was always quite. He stared at his brother, "Alright spill what did you do."

Sesshomaru just stared at his younger half brother, explaining everything he did without actually using his voice. Inuyasha's eyes widened, "You didn't? I'm going to kill you! I don't want to be in any damn talent show!"

Sesshomaru looked at him with his amber eyes calmly giving him a look that said you-will-be-in-the-talent-show-because-i-just-spent-my-allowence-to-sign-you-up.

"Well to bad!"

Sesshomaru stared at him as Inuyasha nodded afraid of what he would do next, "Alright! Alright, I'll be in that stupid talent show, but if I make a fool of myself on the guitar then your dead."

Kagome lay on her stomach tapping her pencil on the pad of paper in front of her with her feet kicking up and down in rhythm of the music around her. She was thinking of the talent show, not quite knowing what she should sing about. She started chewing her pencil as she listened to the music, she decided to take the beat of one song and use it in her own lyrics. She wouldn't have done that but she only had four days to think of something, and at this rate, she didn't have time to make up some beat. She sighed turning over onto her back staring at the sealing. Her thoughts slowly drifted to Inuyasha and Sesshomaru as she popped he gum. She chewed on her gum when it hit her, "Sugar!" She yelled jumping up and down. "A song about sugar!" She sat up tapping her pencil on her chin, "Sugar… Sugar… Sugar something, umm…" She dropped her writing tool grabbing her hair pulling lightly on it in frustration. "Sugar what!" She yelled standing up and jumping on her bed. "Miroku's going to wish he hadn't put me in that show!" She yelled banging her head on the wall. She paused looking up feeling people stare at her. "Oh…" She said slowly sitting back down on her bed with a huge smile, "Hi Sesshomaru, Inuyasha." She yelled jumping off her bed to turn the beat of the music off, "What's up? Why you here so late? Why did my dad let you in?"

"He didn't, we went through Miroku's window."

"Why his?"

"Because we didn't know where yours was."

She walked up to him flicking his nose, "Sniff me out then, you are half dog." She turned to Sesshomaru, "and he's full dog which is still hard to believe."

Sesshomaru just shrugged while Inuyasha stared at her. She was in her pajamas with her pink bunny slippers. She looked at herself and blushed slightly, "Sorry, didn't expect you guys would be coming over."

Inuyasha shrugged plopping himself on her bed, "What are you up to?" He picked up her piece of paper scanning it over.

"Hey!" Kagome said tackling him. He stood up holding it high up above her, "Give that back Inuyasha!" She jumped up and down just barely reaching it with her tips, "That's not fair, you're taller!"

Inuyasha smirked beginning to read it, "What's this?" He asked plopping back down on her bead reading it. "Sugar?" He asked not sure what it was suppose to mean.

Kagome popped her gum nodding, "It's for the talent show."

"You're in the talent show?"

She sighed, "Miroku forced me in it."

Inuyasha gave Sesshomaru a glare, "You're not the only one forced into it." He replied continuing to glare at Sesshomaru.

Kagome clapped her hands together with a big smile, "Oh did Sesshomaru sign you up?" She giggled a bit as her best friend nodded. "Well…" She began trailing off jumping off her bed walking back and forth as she thought of an idea, "Why don't we do something together?" She asked, "You can sing, can't you?"

Inuyasha gulped, "I… guess." Inuyasha replied slightly nervous at what Kagome was thinking. He learned over the years that sometimes Kagome's idea's were just a little to crazy.

Kagome nodded running over to her wide collection of CD's. "What do you know? By heart I mean."

"Umm…"

As Inuyasha thought, Miroku walked in the room sitting next to Sesshomaru on the bed. "Is it working?" He whispered into Sesshomaru's ear as Sesshomaru nodded. Miroku smiled their plan to get Inuyasha and Kagome closer was working. Even though the two were great friends they had their differences.

"Is there a CD you don't have?" Inuyasha asked eyeing her large collection.

Kagome shrugged, "Who knows, because my moms… well… famous she gets basically any CD she wants." She sighed grabbing a red CD. "You know the Red Hot Chilli Peppers?" She asked popping the CD in.

Inuyasha nodded, "I know one song; dad played it over and over again at home when he's feeling sad or something, I don't know"

Kaogme's shrugged, "I'm guessing the song is Otherside?" She asked pressing the button as it flipped through the songs.

He nodded, "How did you..."

"I herd your dad playing it once on my way home."

"Hey, how are you going to tell which one's my voice? Come to think of it, why are you asking me to sing?"

Kagome shrugged, "Maybe we can sing together or something."

Inuyasha 'feh'ed as he waited for a reply to his other question. Kagome nodded, "Well, most of these CD's are cut in half, half are the singer's singing it while the other half is just the back round music. Kagome herd the guitar beginning to play, as it strung a few cords she ran over to sit next to Sesshomaru and Miroku. Crossing her legs on her bed she waited for Inuyasha to start singing. She smiled slightly seeing her nervousness to singing in front of his friends.

How long how long will I slide
Separate my side I don't
I don't believe it's bad
Slit my throat
It's all I ever

I heard your voice through a photograph
I thought it up and brought up the past
Once you've gone you can never go back
I've got to take it on the otherside

Kagome watched, and listened closely to Inuyasha. She was quite surprised at how good he was, bedside's his somewhat high voice, which he could not help, he sounded alright for a beginner.

Centuries are what it meant to me
A cemetery where I marry the sea
Stranger things could never change my mind
I've got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on

How long how long will I slide
Separate my side I don't
I don't believe it's bad
Slit my throat
It's all I ever

Sesshomaru turned to Miroku, who turned to Kagome. Both stared at the girl as she seemed to fall under Inuyasha's spell. Her eyes were warm like in a dream. They looked at each other. Miroku about to burst out laughing while Sesshomaru cracked a small smile.

Kagome folded her hands together as if she was praying, leaning her head on them. Inuyasha was like a dream, like he was born for singing. The way he moved his hands as he sang, the way he wasn't afraid to sing in front of everyone, like her. She slightly frowned; she was terrified of going on stage while Inuyasha seemed the type not to care at all, and she'd been singing for two years. She blinked a couple of times listening to him carefully.

Pour my life into a paper cup
The ashtray's full and I'm spillin' my guts
She wants to know am I still a slut
I've got to take it on the other side

Scarlet starlet and she's in my bed
A candidate for a soul mate bled
Push the trigger and pull the thread I've got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on

Inuyasha sighed opening his mouth wide beginning to sing the main chorus. He felt somewhat strange singing in front of Kagome, his bother, and his bud. He didn't know why he was, if any person were to ask him to sing he would have 'feh'ed and walked off not bothering to give an excuse. When while Kagome asked he just nodded and went along with it. Was their friendship that strong? So strong he would do almost anything for her? He turned over to Sesshomaru seeing him smile slightly. He was somewhat shocked but continued singing. He never expected Sesshomaru to ever smile again and yet, he had a small smile on his face. He wondered if maybe it was Kagome who did this to him. He believed it too. He noticed slowly over time Kagome changed both him and his brother, and it had only been two years.

How long how long will I slide
Separate my side I don't
I don't believe it's bad
Slit my throat
It's all I ever

Turn me on take me for a hard ride
Burn me out leave me on the otherside
I yell and tell it that
It's not a friend
I tear it down I tear it down
And then it's born again

Sesshomaru noticed Inuyasha staring at him and wondered what he was thinking. He put his 'mask' back on showing no expression. He listened closely to the lyrics turning to Kagome noticing that she was enjoying it. As soon as he caught her eyes he felt a whole new feeling inside him. He didn't know what it was, but he knew it was something that he didn't feel often. He turned away from her looking towards the ground as Inuyasha finished the song off.

How long how long will I slide
Separate my side I don't
I don't believe it's bad
Slit my throat
It's all I ever had

How long I don't believe it's bad
Slit my throat
It's all I ever

Kagome jumped up as the song ended. She ran over hugging him, "You're the best guy singer I've ever met!"

Inuyasha's body stiffened as she hugged him. He didn't hug her back; he was too shocked to hug her back.

Kagome smiled looking up towards him. "You really are, besides the fact that you have a high squeaky voice, you sound awesome. You hitting the right notes, in rhythm with the beat, your just, awesome at it. Did you ever take lessons?" She ran over to her CD player turning it off as Inuyasha answered no. "Oh…" Was all she said. She turned towards him walking up to him. She took a deep breath, her hands behind her back, "Could you maybe, possibly sing with me?"

Inuyasha blinked a few times before the information all processed. He snorted, "Me… sing with you?" He turned to Sesshomaru as his older brother gave him a look saying its-better-then-playing-the-guitar. He sighed turning to her. "Alright, on one condition."

"Anything!" Kagome chimed happily.

"You have to sing for me, from the two years I've known you, you've gone to lesson after lesson yet I haven't heard you sing a note. Even in music class, I can barley hear you sing.

Kagome bowed her head, "That's because I lip sing during the class. I don't want to show off or anything." She went over and sat on her bed, "I don't want people to hate me more; I got enough people hating me."

Sesshomaru pattered her back as if to consult her. She looked up at him reading his emotions. She nodded and smiled, "Thanks, but I really don't care." She jumped back and went to her large CD self. She placed a finger on her lips as she scanned all the CD's she owned. "Let's see, how about…" She jumped pulling out a blue CD. "This one." She said with a smile running over to her CD player. She popped the CD out of the case and into her player. She spit her gum into the trash can as she moved to the center of the room. She waited for a couple beats before taking a deep breathe and beginning to sing.

Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Where ever you are
Your gonna see me fly
Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Where ever you are
You're gonna see me fly
So high

Kagome held her last world for a while before repeating that part once more.

Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Where ever you are
Your gonna see me fly
Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Where ever you are
You're gonna see me fly
Across the midnight sky

Kagome took a deep breath from holding all those notes while changing the tone of each note. It wasn't that this song was hard; it was the fact that you needed a lot of air, and Inuyasha could see that perfectly. He had to admit to himself, for a little girl her size she had a lot of air. Not once did she mess up on the notes she had to hold for a while. He smiled slightly hearing the drum beat. He turned to Sesshomaru, who he knew loved the drums but wasn't listening to them. He was listening to Kagome. Inuyasha turned back to Kagome as she continued with the song.

Where were you
To hold my hand
Do the things
That we had planed
Guess I need you by my side
When things go crazy
I just need to know your there
Guaranteed that you'd be there
When I wake up in the night
Will you be my guiding light?

I don't care how far
I'll take a plan
Tonight

Just tell me
Where you are
And everything's
Gonna be alright

Sesshomaru watched Kagome sing with no emotion on his face. But strangely, as she continued to sing, he couldn't help but crack a smile. It was odd for him, even the funniest jokes never made him laugh, or crack a smile for that matter. He turned to look over to his brother seeing a big smile pasted on him. Sesshomaru wasn't shocked, but it wasn't often that Inuyasha smiled like that. It was like he was feeling a whole new feeling. Looking back up at the girl he wondered what trouble she'd gotten into. Although she was an innocent little girl, she took risks like no tomorrow.

Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Gonna fly
Just to be with you tonight
Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Gonna fly
Just to be with you tonight

Miroku looked from Inuyasha to Sesshomaru seeing both brothers were so into Kagome's singing it was like nothing else mattered. Miroku guessed that was the power Kagome had with her singing. He would remember his mother first listening to Kagome, and for the rest of the day, his mother was so nice. She let him cut off four hours of work. With Inuyasha and Sesshomaru, Miroku was positive that Kagome's singing was like some sort of hypnotism. Why it wasn't affecting him he wasn't quite sure, but it didn't bother him right now. He just closed his eyes tapping his foot to the long beat of the music waiting for the part where Kagome continues to sing.

Kagome looked up at her three friends. She thought it was a bit funny that she already had three boys in her room and yet she was only six. She listened closely to the beat still counting in her head on when she came in. Then she heard it, time for her to repeat the same thing over and over.

Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Where ever you are
Your gonna see me fly
Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Where ever you are
Your gonna see me fly
So high

Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Where ever you are
Your gonna see me fly
Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Where ever you are
Your gonna see me fly
Across the midnight sky

Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Where ever you are
Your gonna see me fly
Like a shooting star
Across the midnight sky
Where ever you are
Your gonna see me fly
So high

Kagome took a deep breath calming herself down. She opened her eyes facing her audience and smiled. Turning to her CD player she ran over to it turning it off before it played the next song. She turned back around her hair flipping around her. "So? Any comments or anything?" She asked waiting patiently to receive some sort of speech.

Miroku smiled jumping up off her pink fluffy bed. He ran over to hug her, "Your awesome Kagome! You'll win for sure!" Miroku exclaimed excited that the others had finally heard what Kagome could do. "What do you think?" He asked. Still not receiving a response from the shocked demons he turned to Kagome again. "Your great Kagome and I shall be your manger."

Kagome giggled, "Miroku, it's just a talent show; it's not the big thing. Besides, I don't think Inuyasha would want a manger who can boss him around. She smiled at him beginning to giggle.

This was the part in which Inuyasha snapped out of his little trance, "What are you talking about Kag?" He asked without attitude. Kagome noticed as Inuyasha got older, his attitude became bigger. Although he wouldn't give her attitude that fact that he trusted her and known her since they were four it wasn't as bad. But the days she caught him on his bad mood was when his attitude came out.

Kagome nodded walking over to him. She bent down so her face was right in front of his. "Because you and I are singing a duet."

"What?"

"Don't tell me you don't know what a duet is."

"Not that you idiot." There it was, his ranger coming on with a sprinkling of attitude.

Kagome rolled her eyes. "YOU… ME… SING… TOGETHER… AT…TALENT… SHOW." She answered emphasizing each word. "What do I have to do speak caveman for you to understand?"

"Maybe you do!"

"Don't start with that."

"Feh, whatever. I gots homework to do."

"Got."

"SHUT UP!" Inuyasha yelled storming out of the house through her window. Kagome just turned to Sesshomaru who shrugged following his brother out the window. Before leaving he waved goodbye to Kagome jumping right out.

Kagome sighed, "What's wrong with that kid! I didn't even say anything, and that gots thing. I'm just trying to help him correct his mistake so he doesn't do it all his life!" Kagome yelled falling back right onto her bed.

Miroku looked from the window to his cousin, "Inuyasha's the type to take his anger out on other people. As he gets older, he has a better vocabulary and brain to do so. At least, that's what I think." Miroku sat down right beside his cousin with a smile pasted on his face. "Then again, his vocabulary improving would be a miracle."

Kagome turned to Miroku smiling back, "Wow, you know him better then I do, and I'm usually the one spending more time with him."

Miroku shrugged, "It's a gift."

Kagome eyed him with a smirk on her face, "Alright, if it is, tell me why Sesshomaru is a mute humm?"

Miroku cleared his throat as he closed his eyes thinking to himself. Keeping his eyes closed he answered, "He's probably depressed about something. Thus punishing everyone around him by not speaking. Either that or people made fun of him so he doesn't speak."

Kagome punched Miroku arm lightly, "Yeah okay, whatever." She sat up staring at her cousin. They had a staring competition before Kagome broke it, "Now get out." She said. That was the whole point of the stare. She was trying to tell him to leave her room. She noticed he was not moving. That's when she stood up picking up her cousin throwing him out of her room, "Goodnight Miroku!" She called after the rolling Miroku before closing her door. She sighed walking over to her CD shelf. She pulled out a CD putting it in her CD player. Pressing play she put the volume down hopping into bed falling asleep to the sound of her father's singing.


A/N: Well, there's chapter 3. What did u think? You like? I thought it was cute. Not to much longer till high school chapters right? I'm working on the last childhood chapter as we speak.

I HAVE AN ANNOUNCMENT!

Rae-orri: Well... not quite an announcement. My best friend (Kawwai) as well as my 7 month boyfriend (if you read the reviews he's McRobby a.k.a Robert) are leaving me tomorrow (Sunday May 8 2005) to go to Queens for a WHOLE week. I dedicate this chapter to them. Though it has nothing to do with them I LOVE YOU BOTH! I'll miss you so much. I mean, one of you leaving I could live with but BOTH of you? Who am I supposed to hang with now? Although i still have Melissa... it wont be the same. And guess what else? They day they come back, is the night of the dance! Sure they'll be back in time, but my own boyfriend might not be able to go! Can you believe that? On top of that, Queens trip gets a dance on Thursday. My boyfriend is going to a dance, that I wont be at. AND it's the day before OUR dance. (sigh) Why do they have to be gifted? I would have gone with them, but NO I don't have a 80 average. Stupid people. I have a 77.2, that's enough... right! Only3 more and I could have gone. Three percent...

Kawwai: Um, Raven, it's 2.8

Rae-orri: Even better! Why couldn't I get my math to a 70?

McRobby: That wouldn't get you to a 80 average.

Rae-orri: Damn! No wonder I'm getting a 68

Kawwai: Your getting a 64

Rae-orri: SHUT UP!

Rae-orri: Okay, but still... i'll miss you guys! So much! I love both of you!

Kawwai: One good thing comes out of this folks. Rae will most likely be updated faster because seeing as the two people she spends her time on aren't going to be here, all she'll have is her stories. So i guess look forward to more chapters. Unless her sickness takes her and she dies...

Rae-orri: It's true, i'm so sick i can barley type! (pauses) maybe I should get to the review comments...

Review Comments/Hall of Fans
Remember, all reviews count. Even if it's just a small "great chapter" I will still put a comment. All reviews are special to me, and every signal one deserves to have a shout out and comment.

McRobby: Wow, you actually read MY story, even if you don't like anime? I can't believe it! Then i think about it, i was right beside you and forced you to write a review. I highly doubt your read one word. Thanks so much love! (sticks tongue out) But non the less. I love you, and i'll miss you so much when your gone! Loves! bi!

Micheal: Thanks for your review, hope you enjoyed the chapter. I'm also glad you enjoyed chapter 2 better then one. Hope this beats chapter 2! As well, sorry for rambling on about my problems! Bi!

Kawwaikitsune: Ah, my lovable best friend. How are you? You know, your being so mean to me by taking my boyfriend and going to Queens which is like three hours away. Who knows what you two will do. I mean come on, it's in all the movies, the boyfriend falls in love with the best friend! And at the dance? Sure you may prevent Robert to dancing with other girls, but what will you do? Dance with him to stop him? But that's not preventing you. All your stupid jokes too! I mean those really get me annoyed and make me loose trust in you... And... lol, jokes girl! I'm joking. Just thought I would scary you before your head off to Queens. But I guess by the time you read this, (knowing you) you'll be back from Queens. I want EVERY little detail about what happened alright? Anything that Rob does to hurt me you tell me alright? You better, don't forget the punch alright? I'll see you in your suit case. You can live that week without cloths right? Loves! Oh, and I want my RP!
