2 Weeks Later

Kagome still hasn't talked to us, and I'm beginning to agree with Sango. She's gone. And she's never coming back…She's Naraku's girlfriend and me being a gothic half breed outcast can't do anything about it. Face it Inuyasha. She too good for you. Always have been, always will be. I sighed as I tuned my guitar for tonight's big Talent Show. Miroku plays the drums and Sango plays the base. I do vocals and play. Everyone was walking in for the big show. People from school, parents, teachers, random people from around the city.

"Okay everyone take your seats, we'd like to start shortly." Sesshoumaru's boom from the front of the stage; everyone was back stage. At least the people performing. This was Kikyo, Kagura, Kanna, Hiten and Monten, Hojo, Yura, Kukso, us and Kagome and Naraku. I was actually surprised this many people are performing. Well I guess anyone would for $500 as 1st prize.

"Hello everyone. I am Principal Sesshoumaru and you are at our annual Talent Show. Our first performer is Kikyo Yukita singing Genie in a Bottle." My brother walked off as Kikyo walked on. God I hate this song! After a couple minutes of this torture the song was over. Sesshoumaru walked back on stage with an annoyed look on his face. We might hate each other but we do like the same music. I smirked.

"That wasl…interesting. Anyway our next performer is Inuyasha Tashi, Sango Una, and Miroku Houshi in singing a song that was written by Inuyasha himself called 'Thank you For the Venom'." I gulped and walked out on stage with Miroku and Sango. We set up our things. I turned to them; they gave me a nod.

I took the microphone stand into my hands,

"This song was written for Kagome. I hope your listening." I turned to the right and saw Kagome poking her head out so that she could watch without the audience seeing her.

Miroku and Sango started the song off…

"Girl, I'm not much a poet,

But a criminal

And you never had choice

Love it, or leave it,

You can't understand

A pretty face, but you do so carry on,

And on

And on

I wouldn't front the scene

If you paid me!

I'm just the way

The doctor made me!

On

And on

And on

And on

Love is the red rose

On your coffin door

How life is like, bleeding on the floor,

The floor

The floor

You'll never make me leave,

I wear that on my sleeve,

Give me a reason to believe!

Chorus

So give me all your poison

And give me all your pills

And give me a hopeless heart

And make me ill

You're running after something

That you'll never kill

If this is what you want

Then fire at will!"

I spread my arms out to when I said that last line. I looked to my right to see Kagome looking down at her pink heels and biting her sparkled lips. At least I'm getting some where.

"Preach all you want

But who's gonna save me?

I keep the gun to the heartache you gave me,

Hallelujah, lock and load."

I heard her gasp at that line.

"Black is the kiss

The touch of the serpent son

It ain't the mark or the scar that

Makes you one

And one

And one

And one

You'll never make me leave,

I wear that on my sleeve,

Give me a reason to believe!

Chorus

So give me all your poison

And give me all your pills

And give me a hopeless heart

And make me ill

You're running after something

That you'll never kill

If this is what you want

Then fire at will!"

After that line Sango began her base solo. I kept my head down as I looked at the stage. I felt my knees shake as I felt every ones eyes on me. Once Sango did her scale Miroku stopped playing and Sango stopped also. I looked up at the crowd of people.

"You'll never make me leave

I wear this on my sleeve

You wanna follow something

Give me a better cause to lead

Just give what I need

Give me a reason to believe."

Miroku and Sango started up again. So did I.

Chorus

So give me all your poison

And give me all your pills

And give me a hopeless heart

And make me ill

You're running after something

That you'll never kill

If this is what you want

Then fire at will!

So give me all your poison

And give me all your pills

And give me a hopeless heart

And make me ill

You're running after something

That you'll never kill

If this is what you want

Then fire at will."

Wit that last line we all stopped playing as the sound booth set off two gun shots. There was a short pause the applauding.

"Hey goth freaks! Look up!" Kikyo's voice rang. All of the sudden black paint fell from where the lights were. It covered me, Sango and Miroku. Everything seemed to stop as the crowd gasped, then out of no where the students in the crowd began to laugh. Kikyo, Yura ran to Sango and Miroku and dumped pink paint on their heads on top of black. I heard foot steps then pink stream down my already black painted head. I turned to Kagome who held a bucket that had pink paint in it. I glared at her.

"Inuyasha I-" she whispered.

"Save it." I spat back as I walked off stage. Sango and Miroku got up and followed me. Sesshoumaru walked back on,

"How about we have a brief intermission." With that the curtains closed and the janitors walked on and began to clean the paint up.

I thought she sunk low but not this low.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Goth Kag: okay the readers who know that song and don't, it's by My Chemical Romance but I tweaked it a bit to sound like it was for Kagome so if you don't like me for it TOUGH!
