And now on to the chapter, drum roll please. Dun dun dun dun dun dun.

at Kagome's house ;;

"Alright, now you two tell me why you really came to get me." Kagome tells Shippo and Sota.

They all stand outside of the well house. The boys have identical grins on their faces.

"We have a surprise for you." They chorus together.

Kagome looks at them suspiciously as they run to the well house and tug open the doors.

"Oh Kami." Wide-eyed she stares at the sight before her.

Inside the well house is an assortment of instruments. Drums are in front of the well, guitars are hanging on one wall, a keyboard is by the other wall, and in the back behind the well is recording equipment and amps.

One new guitar sits in the middle of the floor on a stand. A big red ribbon is tied around the body. (in case you hadn't noticed, I don't know lots about instruments.)

"You got me that new guitar I wanted."

The boys just stood there smiling at their sister.

The guitar is black; the design is of cherry blossoms and vines running along the bottom.

"I love it you two." She says fingering the strings.

"Come here you guys." She says holding out her arms to them.

The boys rush into her arms and they hug for a minute.

"Now I need to finish my homework so that I can get back out here and try out my new guitar."

Kagome carefully closes the doors and they all go into the house.

;; With Kagome ;;

Kagome stretches and yawns as she leans back in her chair at her desk. She slumps and reaches for the phone.

#Finally, homework's all finished. I can't wait to get Sango over here so that we can try out our new songs.#

"Sango, get over here we need to rehearse." Kagome tells Sango over the phone."

"I'll be right there, Kag."

"Meet ya in the well house, bye."

Kagome rushes out to the well to meet Sango and set everything up for their rehearsal.

;; 5 minutes later ;;

"Sango, it's about time you got here, even though it just took five minutes."

"I'm sorry, I had some chores to finish at home."

"It's okay, look my brothers bought me a new guitar." Kagome says with a huge grin on her face.

"Cool, that looks great. Did you finish the new songs?"

"You bet I did, time to rehearse."

Kagome picked up her new guitar and Sango went to the drum set.

They rehearsed the new songs with those instruments, and then did the same songs with Kagome at the drum set and Sango playing on the keyboard.

;; a few hours later ;;

"Well, I think we went over all the songs. We even did a few old ones." Sango says.

"We were on a roll." Laughs Kagome

"Yeah, we're really ready for tomorrow night."

"I'm hungry now."

They laugh and leave, making sure the well house is locked up tight.

"See you tomorrow Kag."

"Bye Sango."

Okay, maybe not the longest chapter, but it's a start.

Please tune in to next chapter to see a few of the changes that took place in Kagome's life when Kurama was gone.

I'll try to update faster than I did with this chapter, see ya next time. I need to see if any other symbols will work, not many of my old ones are working. So i'll be experimenting some. But i'll update as soon as possible.

::whew:: I need to write the next chapter soon before I forget it.

Thanks to all my loyal reviewers, I love ya'll. Please review.

Please review, thank you!
