Zodiac Doubles Chapter 16? Italics= thoughts Sorry if it's a short chapter

The next afternoon Kaiya got a call from the man she had met at the Sohma family party. He asked her if she was still interested in singing at his radio station. "Um.what day?" Kaiya asked a bit unsure. "If you are coming it would have to be nest Friday evening. Is that ok?" Without even thinking about it, Kaiya said yes. "Wonderful. I'll start the preparations now and announce your singing now." The man hung up the phone happily and went back to his radio business. Kaiya stood there beaming when she saw Kyo walk in the front door. KYO! OH no!! The dance was next Friday. She couldn't cancel on him. But then again, she couldn't cancel on the radio station either. "Hey Kyo, what time does the dance start on Friday?" "It starts 7:30. Why?" Kaiya gave a sigh of relief. "No reason." And walked up the stairs to her room. "Something's going on, and she doesn't want to tell me."

The rest of the week bustled by quickly and before anyone knew it, it was Friday, the day of the dance. Kaiya went home that day, did some homework, warmed up dinner and started getting ready for the dance and her first appearance at the radio station. She wore a dark navy blue dress that reached the floor and black high heels. Around her neck was a silver chocker with matching earrings. Her hair was up in a fancy claw. For makeup all she had was eye makeup and lip-gloss. She met Kyo and the bottom of the stairs. Yuki and Tohru were already down and waiting. Hatori was going to drive them 'cause no one trusted Shigure to get them there safely.

It was only 5:50 but everyone was ready. Hatori was there as well. Kaiya pulled Hatori aside as everyone filed into the living room. "Hatori, I need a favor." "Sure, I'll try" "Could you drive me to the radio station downtown?" Hatori looked a bit puzzled. "Why?" "I was invited to sing there. Kyo wanted to come but if he comes he's going to be late. I don't want him to miss out on the fun because of me. So could you take me and then comeback, drive them, then come get me and take me to the dance? Or would that be to much trouble?" "No, no problem at all. Should we go now?" "Yeah, I need to be there by 6" Hatori hurried her into the car and drove her to the station. Kyo came out of the living room wondering where Kaiya was. When he asked Shigure he said she went with Hatori to some station. "She went to the radio station? But what if Akito is up to something?" "Kyo, you worry to much." 'Maybe Shigures right. Im sure she'll be fine.'(Kyo)

At the radio station Kaiya was having a blast. She got to introduce songs, talk, be interviewed, and of course sing. People called in frequently saying how she should become a professional singer and stuff. During the break the DJ approached her. "You know, they're right. You should become famous. Come here, I want you to meet someone. Kaiya this is Shinamoto Hitomi. He's a music agent." "Hi, its very nice to meet you. You know, with me as your agent and that voice of yours, I could take you places you never even dreamed."

"So Kaiya, how'd it go?" "All right." Kaiyas mind wandered back to the conversation she had with Mr. Shinamoto.

~*~Flashback~*~

"Hi, its very nice to meet you. You know, with me as your agent and that voice of yours, I could take you places you never even dreamed."

"That's alright. I'm happy just singing here. I don't need to be famous or travel around. I haven't even graduated high school yet. Well my graduation is in a week or two, but I still have a lot to do." 'Im still haven't completed my destiny yet' (Kaiya) "Well, if that's really what you want. But if you ever change your mind, give me a call." He handed her his card and left.

Kaiya arrived at the dance and started looking for Kyo. She found him with some friends near the punch bowl. She started coming up to them behind Kyo. She stopped when she heard what they were talking about.

One of Kyos friends saw Kaiya. "Hey Kyo, so what's the deal with you and that girl Kaiya? You going out with her?" "Are you kidding? I don't even like her! She could leave for all I care." He heard something behind him and immediately regretted his words. He saw Kaiya going out the doors, his friends were laughing together behind him.

"Back so soon?" Shigure asked as he heard Kaiya slam the front door. "Whats wrong?" "Nothing." She said a bit sniffling and angry. Shigure knew when people needed to be left alone and now was the time when he knew something wasn't right and he should stay out of it. For now.

Kaiya went to her room and slammed the door. She pulled out her large backpack and threw everything in he closet inside. She changed her clothes and stuffed the dress inside to. She wrote a note hastily on a piece of stationary paper that smelled like mango mandarin and placed it on the shelf near the door. She slipped quietly out of Shigures house and left. Heading for the main house. She could stay there and complete her mission on her own. Screw her old thoughts of 'the cat and the similar cat are destined to be together.' Screw it. That wasn't going to be part of her destiny. Not anymore.
