Chapter 21: Another Problem On the Way

"Okay now that we've settled our differences...was there anything you'd like to tell us Sesshomaru?" Miroku asked in a child like voice.

"Yeah...not only do I want those explosives out of my room but you all are going to practice NOW...and as an added bonus I think I should let you all know that you have already have 3 gigs waiting for you...if we ever get the chance to practice!"

"Well why didn't you say so? If we needed to practice I would have been here earlier! Come on guys let's get started!" Kagome huffed walking into the recording room.

"What are we going to play?" Sango asked.

"What do we have to play?" Miroku corrected.

"Pretend it's a juke box." Kagome said strapping up. Miroku and Sango looked at her quizzically.

" You know how juke boxes have all these different song in 'em and they just play not knowing what's gonna come on next? Well we're like the inside of one playing the music...She means just give it a shot and quit worrying" Inuyasha explained for them. They nodded still not understanding anything of what either of them had said.

"Okay then just jump in when you think you've got the hang of it...I'll try and play something we all know" Kagome explained.

"Sure. You ready Yash?"

"As ready as I'll ever be" he mumbled. Kagome then began ripping on her guitar.

Don't wanna be an American idiot!

Everyone mentally laughed, all knowing the song she just picked as they followed along.

Don't want a nation under the new mania. And can you hear the sound of hysteria?
The subliminal mind fuck America

Sesshomaru rolled his eyes at the song they played.

'That song is so childish...but at least the can play it...'

Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alienation.
Everything isn't meant to be okay.

Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue.

Well maybe I'm the faggot America.
I'm not a part of a redneck agenda.
Now everybody do the propaganda.
And sing along in the age of paranoia

Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alienation.
Everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow.
For that's enough to argue

Don't wanna be an American idiot.
One nation controlled by the media.
Information age of hysteria.
It's calling out to idiot America.

Welcome to a new kind of tension.
All across the alienation.
Everything isn't meant to be okay.
Television dreams of tomorrow.
We're not the ones who're meant to follow


For that's enough to argue...

Once they finished their song the entire band broke out in laughter.

"That...was a good choice Kags" Sango said between laughs.

"Yes you all played...well...but the lyrics were...questionable" Sesshomaru forced himself to say.

"I know...that's exactly why I did it" she snickered.

"Well I'm glad that you all finally can play an entire song together. It seems the final piece to complete the puzzle has been added."

"Good...now can I go home?" Kagome whined.

"If that means you'll take all of your explosives with you then yes...all of you may go."

"Yay!" they all cheered.

THE NEXT MORNING

"Get up Kagome. We've got to go!" a voice yelled.

"Leave me alone!" She mumbled burying her head under her pillow.

"Get up!"

"Piss off!" she yelled setting their pant on fire.

"You little wench get your ass up!" he yelled yanking the pillow from her and hitting her with it. She suddenly jerked up and glared at whoever it was. And then she saw Inuyasha backing away from her, trying to hide the pillow behind his back.

"Run..." she hissed, still half asleep. Inuyasha was gone in a heart beat.

Miroku was down stairs and heard Inuyasha's useless attempts to wake his cousin up.

'My cousin can sleep through just about anything. He won't be able to wake her' Miroku thought snickering. Then after a few more minutes of his screaming the entire house became quiet and Inuyasha came walking down the stairs as if he'd seen a ghost.

" She yelled at half asleep, right?" Miroku asked. Inuyasha nodded.

"Scary sight, huh?". Inuyasha nodded again.

A few minutes later, Kagome came downstairs dressed in a black leather skirt and red halter top that hugged her form perfectly. On her shirt was the phrase "men are like hardwood floors...you lay 'em right and you can walk over them forever" written with in black. (I saw that on one of my sister's keychains)

"Are you two coming?" she asked at the front door. They both nodded and quickly walked out.

Sango's P.O.V

Where are they? They're gonna be late! Inuyasha has never been able to do anything on time has he? Then I saw a few girls walk by talking. Hmm...mine as well get some more information from them.

"Come on! Did you hear she's coming back today? I can't wait to see Hitomi! I feel bad for the new girl though...Hitomi's gonna freak when she hears some new kid has taken her spot in everything!" one girl whispered.

"Not to mention the fact that she's getting a little to close to Inuyasha for Hitomi's liking...she's liked him since like the fifth grade!"

'Oooh this is juicy stuff...I gotta tell Kagome s soon as she gets here! Hitomi is a total bitch and she's ten times as bad as Kikyo!' I thought as I raced into the parking lot. Then I saw them parking Inuyasha's car down the street. As I waved to get their attention I didn't notice a huge white Mercedes heading my way...then all of the sudden the air was knocked out of my lungs as something crashed into me with full force... (you know I was seriously thinking about ending it right here...but since I only have 2 hours and fifteen minutes left of school why not continue? )

"What do you mean that's all you know! she's been coming here for four years!"

"Sorry sir. But that's all I know. We've been catching her speeding all the time out here for the past 4 years...and we just took her in again a few hours ago. All I know is that she lives a bit of the way away...oh, and we were chatting while she was here today. She said she got herself a part in a band and they were getting ready to practice. Then a few minutes later another kid came in to pick her up for practice...I think I heard them say they came in a helicopter, though"

"Thank you sir. You have provided us with exceptional information. Please take my apologies for earlier. I was stressed out. But thanks to you I may be one step closer to finding my woman"

"Always happy to help with the law"

"Tsume when you're done getting whatever else you can from here, meet us back at the office" Orichi said winking at him. Then Orichi and Koga both walked out.

"Woah, I feel bad for you. That guys a jerk"

"Like I said...it's for the girl's sake..hey, didn't you say she's been here often in the last 4 years?"

"Yeah why?"

"Because...he said she went missing a year ago on a trip here...and what kind of kidnapper would let his hostage escape...and get arrested by the police? Isn't that practically giving yourself away"

"And you know, she's never mentioned anything about being engaged...in the past four years I've known her for that matter!"

"Something's really suspicious about this..."

Okay now I'm gonna stop it here just because I need to take a break. Don't worry, I assure you the next chapter will be up soon!
