Thoughts
"Speech"
"Kagome! Are you going to try out for The Phantom of the Opera?" Sango, Kagome's best friend sqealed at her.
"I was thinking about it... I don't know, I probably won't make it." Kagome said sadly. Sango looked at her like she had just grown a second head. She was the best at acting and singing out of everyone who acted and sang in their whole highschool. And everyone knew it.
Kagome noticed the look Sango gave her and said, "Fine! But what part should I try out for?" Kagome started walking to their first class, choir. They were both sophmores and they only had a few classes that weren't together.
Sango gave her another look. "Do you even have to ask? Cristine Daae, of course! My, God! You act as if you don't know you are the best actress, dancer, AND singer in the entire school! I know you know you are!" Kagome gave her a slightly puzzled look, but ignored her bizarre speech. Sango was always like this in the morning: wired on caffine from her traditional three cappucinos which drove Kagome nuts on more than one occasion.
At that moment, they passed by the "popular table." Kagome's heart started pounding in her chest when the most popular guy, who she also had a major crush on, walked up and said, "Hey, girls, either of you trying out for the play?"
Even though Kagome was head over heels for the totally hot, silver-haired-dog-eared-golden-eyed-inu-hanyou, she knew how to keep her cool. "Oh, yeah, I'll be trying out for Cristine Daae, and Sango over here will be trying out for Meg. How about you? Have any interest in The Phantom of the Opera?"
Inuyahsa smirked and said, "Of course. It's a good play, and therefore, it desreves a good actor to be the Phantom." Inuyasha's eyes danced with laughter as he chuckled lightly. Kagome knew he could be big headed sometimes, but those times were becoming more and more rare. Kagome joined him by giggling a little. She knew he was joking. That was his favorite thing to do.
Then Sango spoke up. "Did you two know that auditions were today during lunch?" All three students had lunch B. (A/N:the lunches are separated into two times: lunch A and lunch B. That's how my schedule is and i decided to base it on my schedule... which is:
sem.1, 1st hour: Girls PE
2nd hour: French 1
3rd hour: Biology; sem. 2: Study Hall
4th hour: Honors English 9 -Kagome, Inuyasha, Miroku, and Sango will have Honors English 10-
5th hour: Study Hall; sem. 2: Geometry
6th hour: World Cultures
7th hour: Geometry; sem. 2: Biology
I put this in here so you would know Kagome's schedule. Sango's schedule is the same, but where it says sem. 2 is her class. That's what's different about her and Kagome's schedule. Sorry for the interuption and if i confused you in any way.) Kagome whipped around to look at her friend and shrieked, "WHAT! Why didn't you tell me!"
"I'm sorry! I thought you knew!" Sango sqealed back.
Inuyasha decided to intervine before a fight broke out. "Girls, it's okay, we all find out today over the intercom. No one knows yet. We get to read off of the scripts. I don't know how you knew, Sango." Inuyasha looked at Kagome and put a soothing hand on her shoulder and said, "It's okay, you're a shoe-in and everyone knows it. They should be the ones worried. Although I have heard that Kikyo is going to try out." He thought for a moment before the bell rang which startled him out of his reverie. "Well, we better get to chorus." He let go of Kagome's shoulder and went and grabbed his bookbag and slung it over his shoulder.
Inuyahsa and Kagome ended up walking next to each other when Sango's boyfriend, Miroku, (A/N: Miroku is NOT lecherous or perverted in any way! it drives me crazy! almost all of the characters will be OOC! ok back to the story!) came and rested his arm and Snago's shoulders and kissed her on the lips breifly. That's the last Kagome and Inuyasha heard them.
Kagome glanced over at Inuyasha and smiled when she saw his ears twitch. He looked at her and asked, "What?" Then said, in a girly voice, "Do I have something on my face?" Kagome busted up laughing and Inuyasha grinned. Man, I love her laugh. I doubt she even likes me though, she's so bent up on Koga. Damn wolf. Inuyasha walked into the band room and said to their band and chorus teacher, "Hey, Mr. Grately! How's it goin'?" Inyasha grinned despite his foul mood.
Mr. Grately was about 27 years old and always loved goofing off with the students. Because of this, he was the students' favorte teacher. Although, most of the teachers were young and quite similar to him. He was 6'4" and had blonde, spikey hair. His eyes were a piercing green and he was lean and muscular. (A/N: drools hehe)
"Good, I guess. How's life with you, Yasha?" Mr. Grately asked in return.
"Oh, the usual. I'm trying out for the Phantom, hoping and praying that no one can magically get ten times better than me..." Inuyasha chuckled lightly, a humerous gleam in his eyes.
Mr. Grately chuckled also. During their conversation, Kagome had been watching Inuyasha. When she heard Inuyasha laugh, she nearly melted. Oh, my God! I get butterflies just listening to him laugh! If we both get the parts we wanted I'm going to have to be like up against his chest and stuff! Oh, shit, how will I be able to do that! Kagome snapped out of her thoughts abrubtly when Mr. Grately informed everyone that the announcements would be airing soon.
(scene change)
Kagome went straight to the huge auditorium at the east side of their school. Their school was the biggest in the state. It was so big that they needed 15 minutes in between classes just to go to their locker and get to their next class.
Kaogme found Sango in the sea of seats and sat next to her. "Hey Sango, Hey Miroku." She waved slightly to them both.
Miroku smiled and nodded, mumuring a hello while Sango said, " Hey, Kags! So, you nervous?"
"Hell yeah! How could I not be!" Kagome said. Sango and Miroku both could tell that she was tense.
Inuyasha walked up behind them and said, "Hey, Kagome, Miroku, Sango. If it's okay, I requested that you and I act the scenes out together." He looked at her hopefully.
Kagome's heart fluttered. "Yeah. Yeah, that's great." Kagome smiled thankfully at him. I don't know why but I'm less nervous now that I know I'll be acting with him.
"We're one of the last ones, so we can enjoy the rest of the acts and see what we are up against. This seat taken?" He asked, motioning to the empty seat next to Kagome. YES! She wants to act with me! I can't believe it! I thought for sure she was waiting for Koga to waltz up here and drag her up on stage. Hm, I wonder if she's saving this seat for Koga? I hope not.
His silent question was answered when Kagome said, "As of now, yes. Sit." She smiled at him and he grinned back.
The lights stared to dim as the auditions were starting and Inuyasha took his seat.
There weren't too many other audtions for the parts for Raoul and Cristine, So Inyasha and Kagome weren't waiting for very long.
"Inuyasha Takahashi (A/N: I don't know his real last name and i just thought of this, so don't ask...) and Kagome Higurashi, you're up." Kagome and Inuyasha both got up and each grabbed a script.
Kagome heard, "Good luck!" and she smiled to herself. They opened up to the correct page and Kagome looked at Inuyasha to see if he was ready. Inuyasha gave her a slight nod and then they began...
(A/N: I was going to end it here, but I decided I was bored, so I kept going... and just so you know, guys, you really have to use your imagination with this, okay? and they dont actually have all the props and everything... since they are only trying out...)
Scene 4
THE LABYRINTH UNDERGROUND
(The PHANTOM and CHRISTINE take their strange journey to the PHANTOM'S lair. Candles rise from the stage. We see CHRISTINE and the PHANTOM in a boat which moves slowly across the misty waters of the underground lake)
CHRISTINE (Kagome)
In sleep he sang to me, in dreams he came . . . that voice which calls to me and speaks my name . . . And do I dream again? For now I find the Phantom of the Opera is there - inside my mind . . .
PHANTOM (Inuyahsa)
Sing once again with me our strange duet . . . My power over you grows stronger yet . . . And though you turn from me, to glance behind, the Phantom of the Opera is there - inside your mind . . .
CHRISTINE
Those who have seen your face draw back in fear . . .I am the mask you wear . . .
PHANTOM
It's me they hear . . .
BOTH
Your/my spirit and your/my voice, in one combined: the Phantom of the Opera is there inside your/my mind . . .
OFFSTAGE VOICES
He's there, the Phantom of the Opera . . . Beware the Phantom of the Opera . . .
PHANTOM
In all your fantasies, you always knew that man and mystery . . .
CHRISTINE
. . . were both in you . . .
BOTH
And in this labyrinth, where night is blind, the Phantom of the Opera is there/here inside your/my mind . . . Sing, my Angel of Music!
CHRISTINE
He's there, the Phantom of the Opera . . .
(She then begins to vocalise strangely until they reach the shore of the lake...)
Everyone in the auditorium were on their feet, clapping and screaming as loud as they could, but Kagome did notice Kikyo storming out with Naraku hot on her heals.
Well, there's the first chapter! please review and tell me how it is! thanks a lot! much love!
just so you know: their highschool knows all about youkai, hanyou, mikos and all that good stuff... in fact, half of the school consists of them...
this story is NOT supposed to revolve around the Phantom of the Opera... it revolves around Inuyahsa, Kagome, Sango, Miroku, Koga, Ayame, Rin, Sesshomaru, Kikyo, Naraku, and anyone else i might have forgotten... so please dont kill me for that!
