The Clash of the Bands: Remade

Last Time:

"Thanks." She found herself murmuring to him, as she turned away and jumped off the opposite side of the stage and walked to Sango and Miroku.

"Kagome… that was so… I don't even know how to word it. That kind of made my heart feel like it was breaking into pieces, but at the same time like I was strong enough to move on from it. When did you write that?"

"A long time ago."

And InuYasha was staring at her, his jaw locked. "They are more talented than I thought."

"Yes, they are." Kikyo said, wrapping her arms around InuYasha from the back. "I missed you." She breathed into his ear.

"I missed you too." He whispered, turning around to kiss her, just as Kagome walked past and said 'I smell who-o-o-re' in a singsong voice.

A growl, and a punch, and Kagome left victorious, while Kikyo scolded InuYasha and looked at Kagome's back. "You really messed her up. I feel bad now. Well… I can't say I do because I really wanted to take you from her in the first place, but still. I would hate to be in her shoes."

"Let's go home." InuYasha growled into her ear, as he pulled her back against him, the arousal evident to her.

"Let's."

This Time:

Chapter Four

Without A Sound

Kagome jumped onto her bed, flopping onto her back as she looked at the ceiling. Today had been tough. She sighed softly and stood. "Guess I'd better change." She murmured, as she yanked off her dress she wore, and replaced it with a sundress, with prints of flowers on it. It was gray with yellow and green flowers. She had thrown her shoes off. Sango's voice was coming through the window, and she watched as her and Miroku walked into the yard. She watched them. They clearly liked each other, but Sango was too shy and Miroku was just a letch. She heard Sango shout, and Kagome jumped from the window and landed in front of them, punching Miroku in the gut before she stood. He was on the ground now.

"Kagome… he was being a pervert to me again." Kagome stifled a laugh, while Sango laughed outright at Miroku, who was lying with his tongue almost touching the ground, and then a look of disgust crossed her features. "Lets' get him inside, it's cold out here."

"Sorry, Sango." Kagome said, sincerity lacing her tone.

"He'll survive." Sango stated, "He's had worse." Her eyes closing for a moment. She froze instantly. Kagome's eyebrow twitched as they dropped him and, at the same time, their hands collided with his face.

"PERVERT!" They shouted, as they began kicking him, not hard enough to inflict real damage. He lay there laughing for a moment.

"But you both have such nice rear ends!" He stated, his eyes filled with happiness and excitement. "Anyway, Sango. The play coming up, are you still leading actress?" He asked softly, as he stood.

"Yeah Miroku."

"What play?" Kagome asked, her eyes filling with confusion. "There is a play coming up?"

Miroku laughed loudly. "Surely Kagome, you knew? It's been going around school for weeks. They casted us a few days ago." He stated, smirking as he bent down, holding Kagome's hand. "I'm the prince."

"I'm the fairy." Sango stated, leaning back to touch her forehead with her hand. She really hadn't expected Miroku to get lead. Let alone, in the same play. She sighed, and walked off. "Miroku, come on. We can rehearse in the garage." She stated. She looked towards Kagome. "You don't mind, do you? My mom is on one of her 'early spring cleaning' things again, and I really didn't feel like doing that today."

"Not at all." Kagome watched them walk off and went back to her room. She plopped back down, closing her eyes. Why did she suddenly feel so miserable? Her lips started moving, as if on their own accord. "I told myself, today was gonna be the day. No more excuses cause I knew exactly what to say. Was gonna make my play, but just like yesterday, my mind erased… and I let the moment slip away. I never, not, got me sitting here all on my own. Picking up the phone, but I can't get past the dial tone… racking my brain, going insane… Again and again, I can't keep going this way…" Her eyes traced the paint on the ceiling, finding shapes that she never knew were there. Her eyes softened when she realized that she saw InuYasha in her ceiling. His eyes were soft and he was smiling so radiantly at her. She reached to her bed stand and picked up a sketchbook. She made lines, like she was making a comic, and began to draw. She lost all sight of everything else except for the comic she was busy drawing out.

As she drew, her lips kept moving, but her brain didn't compute the lullaby, the melody she continued to sing. She was so entranced in her comic. She drew, and drew, and drew. She didn't realize when her door opened and Rin stepped inside. She didn't hear Rin approach her and ask "What are you doing Kagome?" Kagome jumped her sketchbook and pencil flying in different directions. "Whoa!" Rin shouted, catching the pen in the air.

Kagome held her chest suddenly, eyes wide in shock. "Rin you scared the crap out of me!" Kagome said. She leaned back against her headboard sighed softly, closing her eyes. "What do you need?"

"Are you hungry?" Rin paused, "Cause your mom made dinner, and I am reallllyyy hungry." She stressed. As if to prove a point her stomach growled. "Sorry, for sneaking up on you. I didn't know you didn't hear me."

"It's fine Rin." Kagome said as she sat there. "I'm not hungry." She sighed and felt relieved.

"What were you drawing Kags?"

"Nothing Rin." Kagome stated. "Well, a comic. I'll show you sometime."

"Alright, well… I'm going to go eat." Rin said, standing as she handed Kagome her pencil and sketchpad. "Didn't mean to scare you!" Rin said again, as she walked to the door, opened it, and left.

Kagome sighed, now looking at her comic. It was a girl who looked exactly like her, sitting on the rim of a well. She looked up in the neck panel and saw a male walking towards her, which made her smile happily. But a moment later, her smile had disappeared.

With the male (who remarkably resembled InuYasha) was a girl. The girl looked like Kikyo, her features somewhat harder than the actual Kikyo was, with ceremonial robes on. The Kikyo resemble-er eyes looked burdened. The difference about InuYasha is that he wasn't dressed in normal clothes, like jeans and a t-shirt. He was wearing a very strange ensemble of items. Items Kagome had saw in her grandfather's store. Kagome was in a school outfit, like her middle school outfit had been.

In the comic, InuYasha rudely ignored Kagome, but smirked when she chased after him. The thought bubble above Kagome had a question mark in it while the one above InuYasha's said "I used you." And in his hands was the necklace Kagome had around her neck. It was a pink jewel, fully completed, except in the comic, it had a piece missing. That piece represented Kagome's heart.

Kagome sighed softly. "It's going to be a long day tomorrow…" She whispered, as she fell back. She began tracing the lines on the ceiling again, and soon, she fell into a restless slumber.

The whole night at InuYasha's house, Sesshomaru was at the window, staring at the bright moon. "He's selfish." He stated, as the moonlight soaked into his chest. He closed his eyes, and he listened to the wind silently. It was quiet. He closed his window, and as soon as he was lying down, he fell asleep.

Yeah, I made up a new chapter. Replacing the replacement! Awkward!

Haha, leave a review!
