Chapter 3: The New Song
(Monday)
Kagome was walking to school with Sango, Rin and Kikyo.
"I can't believe it we're going to enter Battle of the Bands," Rin said excitedly.
"Yeah I know," Kagome said. "But we have to work hard, if we get it,"
"Yes we know," Sango said.
"So Kagome you gonna talk to that new hottie?" Kikyo asked.
"I don't know," Kagome said blushing. "I was thinking about it," She said.
"You should before someone else does," Rin said. "A hottie like him won't stay single for long," she added.
"I know," Kagome said, "But I don't think I'm ready yet," she said.
"Kags it's been six months, how much time do you need?" Kikyo asked.
"Yeah Dante's a loser for dumping you," Rin said.
"he's a jerk if you ask me," came the voice of Kagome's cousin.
"Yes he is," Sango agreed.
"Hey Roku," Kagome said turning to see Miroku.
"So what you girls doing?" Miroku asked.
"We're entering the battle of the bands," Rin said.
"Oh really so are we," Miroku said.
"We?" Kagome said.
"Yes me and My band," Miroku said.
"And who is in your band?" Kagome asked.
"You know those two new boys?"
"The yokai and the hanyou?" Kagome asked.
"Yes well I've known them for years," Miroku said. "their names are Inuyasha, he's the hanyou, and Sesshomaru Takahashi." he said. "And you all know Onigumo," The four Girls nodded. "Together we make up The Outsiders." Miroku announced.
"Well you four don't stand a chance against Risk," Kikyo said.
"You haven't heard us play," came Onigumo's voice.
"Hey Gumo did you hear they think their better than us," Miroku said.
"No one's better than us and we're going to win," Onigumo said confidently.
"Don't get to Cocky," Kikyo said. "I'm guessing you haven't auditioned yet," she said.
"No but we're sending in our demo soon," Miroku said coming to his friends aid.
"But why bother we're going to win." he added. Kagome rolled her eyes.
"Now Roku I don't think Aunt Akane will like to hear about you bragging," Kagome said. Miroku stuck his tongue out at Kagome.
"Keep sticking that tongue out," Kagome began.
"If you want to keep it that is," Sango finished for her friend. Miroku pulled his tongue back in glaring at Kagome.
"Sesshy wake up," Inuyasha yelled, through the wall. "We're going to be late!!" he yelled.
"I'm up," Sesshomaru yelled from his bed. Inuyasha walked out of his room and stood in Sesshomaru's door way.
"Oh really neat freak you don't look like you're awake," Inuyasha said.
"I'm talking to you aren't I?" Sesshomaru pointed out.
"Yeah, yeah smartass now get up and get dressed," Inuyasha said. "Or mom will have a fit…..again," He added as he left. He entered the kitchen and saw Izaiyoi and Inutaisho already eating.
"Morning" Inuyasha yawned as he sat down.
"Inuyasha I've done some research on this Battle Of The Bands you boys were talking about yesterday," Inutaisho said
"Yeah, so" Inuyasha said.
"I'm not sure you boys can stay in a hotel alone for a week," Inutaisho said.
"Dad we're mature enough to be on our own," Inuyasha said. "And besides we haven't even got in yet," he added.
"Yeah dad chillax," Sesshomaru said taking a seat next to Inuyasha, after flicking Inuyasha in the ear.
"Owwww," Inuyasha said holding his ear.
"My point exactly," Inutaisho said.
"This isn't helping Fluffy," Inuyasha said.
"Sorry slob," Sesshomaru said.
"Yeah if you boys get in I'm going to have to go with," Inutaisho said. That caught Inuyasha and Seshomaru's attention.
"What dad no you can't," Sesshomaru said hitting Inuyasha on the back as he choked on his food. Inuyasha spit his food out on the table. He quickly cleaned it up with a napkin.
"You can't do that," Inuyasha said.
"If you can prove I'm wrong I'll let you two go with your friends alone, but if nothing improves I'm going with," Inutaisho said.
"Fair enough," Inuyasha said.
Kagome, Sango, Rin, Kikyo, Miroku, and Onigumo arrived at school, and went to their homerooms. Kagome, Sango, and Rin were in the same homeroom. Miroku, and Onigumo were also in the same homeroom.
"So Kags I was thinking instead of doing My last Breath," Sango said, "We could do a song I've been working on for awhile," she said.
"sure what's it called?" Kagome asked.
"Piece Of Heaven," Sango said." It's not what we usually do but if we rehearse it could be really cool," she said
"OK let's try it today after school," Kagome said.
Inuyasha and Sesshomaru arrived at school in time for the bell to ring.
"I told you we were going to be late again," Inuyasha said glaring at his older half-brother.
"Oh shut up," Sesshomaru said annoyed. Inuyasha and Sesshomaru went their separate ways. Inuyasha to his home room with Miroku and Onigumo.
"It's nice of you to join us Mr. Takahashi," Mrs. Aida said as Inuyasha entered the classroom. Inuyasha nodded and took a seat next to Miroku.
"Why are you always late?" Miroku whispered to Inuyasha.
"Sesshy is hard to wake up in the morning," Inuyasha whispered back.
(Lunch Time)
Miroku, Onigumo, Sesshomaru, and Inuyasha were sitting at a table eating lunch.
"Oh yeah guys our dad doesn't think we're mature enough to go to battle of the Bands alone," Inuyasha announced. "He's saying he gonna go with us if we make the cut," He added.
"yeah we have to prove we're mature enough," Sesshomaru said.
"What no way he can't do that," Miroku protested.
"Yes he can and if we don't shape up he will," Inuyasha said.
"Then let's shape up and prove to him we are mature," Onigumo said.
"Easier said that done," Inuyasha said.
"Oh yeah we got some competition," Onigumo said. "I mean there's another band here," he said.
"Who?" Inuyasha and Sesshomaru asked.
"Miroku's cousin Kagome and her friends," Onigumo said.
Kagome and Sango were sitting at their table waiting for the other two to arrive. Finally they sat down at the table.
"Finally what took you girls so long?" Kagome asked.
"Sorry but Kik had a small problem," Rin said.
"OK We're meeting at my house after school for rehearsal today we have a new song," I wanna try out,"
"Didn't you just finish your new song?" Kikyo asked.
"Yes but this one is Sango's," Kagome said.
"Sango?" Rin said looking at Sango. "What's it called?" she asked.
"Piece Of Heaven," Sango said.
"Can't wait to hear it," Kikyo said.
(After School)
The girls were at Kagome's house warming up. Kagome was at her keyboard reading over Sango's new material.
"Ok Girls let's get started," Kagome said. "Sango since this is your song I think you should sing," she said.
"Uh...ok," Sango said unsure. Sango started singing by herself with her guitar.
The minute you walked through my door
I knew this love is forever more
Kagome began to play her music.
But then you told me all these lies
See the tears filling up my eyes
Kikyo joined in on her bass and Rin on the drums.
All I want, is a little piece of heaven
All I need, a little piece of heaven
Piece, of heaven
All I want, is a little piece of heaven
All I need, a little piece of heaven
Naaaa, na na na na na na, na na na
Naaaa, na na na na na na, naaa naaa naaa
Piece, of heaven
Sota came out into the garage to listen.
You taught me right from wrong All i want, is a little piece of heaven Naaaa, na na na na na na, na na na Piece, of heaven
And told me always to be strong
But now i'm better off alone
Searching for a better home
All i need, a little piece of heaven
Naaaa, na na na na na na, naaa naaa naaa
Piece, of heaven
Piece, of heaven (heaven heaven heaven)
"Wow," Sota said. "Did you write that?" He asked Sango. Sango nodded.
"I love it," Kagome said.
"We should do this on our demo," Rin said.
"Yeah we're dropping My Last Breath," Sango said. "Me and Kagome already talked about it," she added.
