Not All Fun and Games-Chapter 3 "The audition"
~
Kagome glanced at the grey building before her. It was a humongous building! With many satellites at the top of this building and tons of fountains in front, it was breathtaking.
This was where the audition was going to be held? Kagome had never even dreamed of something as big as this. Instead, she had worn a casual black skirt and blue top. She thought it would be okay, so she rushed to the entrance of the building.
When she was running, from the corners of her eyes she saw a white limousine, parked at the curb. Screaming fan girls with notepads and pens were somewhere nearby.
'Someone famous must be in the building! I wonder if I'll be lucky enough to meet them!' Kagome thought as she showed the guard at the door her pass, the one Miroku had given to her.
The interior of this place was even more glamorous than the exterior! Huge sets of stairways and golden elevators created an extremely expensive feel to this place. Kagome walked professionally to the elevators, pretending to know her place around. She was still glaring at the exquisiteness of the place, and when she heard the elevator bell (A/N: you know the ones that ring when they reach a floor) she turned around and knocked into somebody.
"Watch where you're going, bitch!" A harsh voice hissed.
Kagome gulped. "I'm so sorry miss, I didn't see you there and-" She looked carefully at the rude girl who had screamed at her. This girl had almost the same facial features as her, but her stare was icy and cold, while her black hair was down to her back, secured with a large ribbon. Squared glasses placed on this rude girl's nose made her look even more serious. For some reason, this girl looked very familiar.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Don't just go staring at people, it's rude. You should be lucky I'm not pressing any charges."
Kagome was ready to rip this girl's tongue out. "What is your problem? I already said it was an accident, what more do you want? I've never met anyone as bitchy as you-"
Again she was cut off when she realised this rude woman had already walked into the elevator, accompanied by a man in a black suit and sunglasses. Before Kagome could say anything the doors of the elevator closed, leaving a speechless Kagome standing there. 'Ugh.if I see her around again I won't be quite so forgiving.' And with that Kagome walked politely into the next available elevator.
"Level 23." Kagome thanked the elevator man (A/N: is that what they're called?) and proceeded off the elevator, and noticed a few more girls getting off on the same floor as her.
This floor was a long hallway, which appeared to be kilometres long. Doors filled both sides of the halls, so there appeared to be hundreds of doors as well.
After a good fifteen minutes Kagome finally found the room she was supposed to go to. She opened the small door and walked inside, only to see a lot of girls, all smiling and holding thick wads of paper in their hands, giggling to one another. They were lining up at the door. (A/N: that's right, ANOTHER DOOR) Kagome just sat down on a chair, and waited. She didn't quite know why. Every 10 minutes, the door would open and another girl would walk into the door, shaking with eagerness and fright. Another would come out, either looking really happy, or really disappointed. One girl even came out bawling her head off.
Sick of waiting, Kagome tapped on the girl next to hers' shoulder. She looked to be around 10 or 11, and had black hair down to her shoulders. This girl was reading the script vigorously, mumbling to herself and slapping herself in the head once every so often.
"Excuse me?" Kagome interrupted.
The girl turned around, she stared at Kagome for a good minute before snapping out of it.
"Huh? Oh-I'm sorry, I guess I'm just a bit nervous, that's all. I'm Rin!"
Rin held out her hand and Kagome shook it and smiled at the first nice person she had met that day. "I'm Kagome, nice to meet you Rin!"
Rin smiled very sweetly and asked, "So, what part are you trying out for?"
Kagome shook her head. "Honestly, I have no idea! I don't even know what this movie is about!"
Rin giggled. "Calm down, nobody does."
Kagome put on a VERY confused face.
"The thing is, nobody knows! I guess they wanted to keep this movie as much as a secret as possible. They don't want too many questions. When we audition, we just choose the part that we want to read, see?"
Rin pointed to something on the paper in her hands.
HUSBAND-pg.3
WIFE-pg.5
EX-GIRLFRIEND-pg.7
DAUGHTER-pg.8
OTHERS-pg.9-15
"These pages just give you a sample part, which just shows off your acting skills and you can choose which part you're more comfortable with. Then you can read it to the people in there. But, if they like you, and they think you might suit another part more, then they will give you another part." Rin finished.
Kagome nodded. "So where do you get the script from?"
Rin pointed to a lady in the corner. She had long brown hair and purple eye shadow. Kagome made her way over there, and got one kindly from her.
Kagome sat back in her seat and flipped through the pages. She really liked the part of the wife, but she thought maybe the ex-girlfriend's part could show off her acting skills better. Plus, she liked those lines. Then she remembered something.
"Oh yea, Rin, what part are you trying out for?"
"Me? Oh! I'm trying out for the part of the daughter!" Rin answered.
"How come there are no guys here auditioning?" Kagome asked, curious. She had been questioning that to herself the whole afternoon.
Rin fixed her hair. "Well, I heard they already chose the husband part, I heard somewhere that this actor is quite famous! And, all the other men auditions held place this morning."
Kagome, not fully satisfied with her answer, asked again.
"Rin, how do you know so much about this?"
Rin laughed. "I came here pretty early and had a chat with the director. Not to mention I was studying my lines throughout this morning's auditions. Some guys were giving me evil looks. Like I was rehearsing for a guy's part or something. It was sooo funny!"
Kagome laughed. Rin was really talkative, unlike her own brother.
She stood up, and walked to the end of the long line. "Well, I think I have enough practise! Wish me luck!" Rin was already shaking with nervousness.
"Good luck!" Kagome called out to her new friend. She then turned back to her script and started working hard on her lines. When she thought she was ready, she looked up and noticed the door opening again for the billionth time that day, and Rin walking in.
Kagome picked herself up and made her way to the back of the line. Ignoring the evil glances she received from several girls.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Next."
The door finally opened for Kagome. She had been waiting, for like what? 12 hours already? Kagome yawned and walked into the bright room with a pearly smile.
Inside this room was a long table, sitting about five businessmen looking people, and the girl who handed her the script before was also there. One of the men stood out with his long silver hair contrasting from the black hair of the other men. He was the first to speak.
"Hello dear, I am the director of this movie, Sesshoumaru. May I ask of your name?"
"Kagome Higurashi" She was kind of shaking, this was putting her so much on the spot. Her voice was also a bit quaky.
"So, Kagome, how old are you?"
"I'm turning 18 next January." Kagome said, trying very hard to prevent her voice from cracking.
"Great. Now, which part would you like to read for us?"
"The ex-girlfriend." Kagome said sweetly and pulled out her script from behind.
"Hmmmm.might be a bit young for that part, but I guess make-up would do fine in that case. Please read your lines to that camera over there." He gestured to the camera on her left.
Kagome cleared her throat. She was a natural in front of the camera; she wasn't scared of it, only the businessmen looking people.
She put on her best angry look (one she often gave to Souta), and began.
"How could you? HOW COULD YOU?!!!" Kagome screamed into the camera, tears already welling in her eyes. She sobbed a bit, and then pulled back.
" You bastard! How come you never told me about her? You told me you loved me! How-" Kagome stopped yelling and broke down into tears, one hand in a fist over her heart.
"Get out- *sob* get-OUTTTT!" Kagome pointed to the imaginary door and fell onto her knees, supporting herself with one hand, and another was covering her nose and mouth, still sobbing uncontrollably.
"Why don't you go sleep with another woman you jerk!" (Next followed a bunch of profanities not suitable for this PG-13 fic) Kagome pretended to slam a door and broke down again in hysterical tearing up and screaming.
She picked herself up from the floor and stood up. She wiped away her tears and held her hands on her thighs. She smiled when she noticed everyone's expressions.
Sesshoumaru was just smiling, and writing in some notes on a piece of paper at the same time. The other black haired men were kind of in a state of shock. A big thumbs up and a smile was what she received from the woman.
"Miss Higurashi, that was a very impressive acting job you just did there. You will definitely be one of our main considerations for that role. You should receive a phone call with the results within 2 weeks." Sesshoumaru commented.
"Thank you very much." Kagome bowed nicely and left the room, very pleased at his comment.
