Chapter 1:
"Who in the world is supposed to replace you!?" Inuyasha asked. "I thought that was my job?!"
"Well, I found someone for you, and she's just as good as me." Rin reassured Inuyasha. "Don't worry. I taught her everything I know, and she knows all our songs too."
"If you say so." Inuyasha said. "Hey! I know what we could do for our show at the battle! We could get rid of Kikyo and replace her with someone else!"
"Inuyasha." Sango said in a stern voice.
"What?!" Inuyasha asked. "She's so annoying, I don't know why we didn't get rid of sorry ass earlier!" Inuyasha said.
"She only annoys you 'cause she likes you." Miroku said.
"Well I don't like her." Inuyasha replied.
"We figured that out already Sherlock!" Rin yelled.
"Whatever." Inuyasha said. "But we're gonna need a killer show. Remember happened last year."
Everyone remembered clearly what happened.
Flashback
Sango was playing the keyboard, but she was so nervous that she kept making mistakes. The crowd was booing the band. Inuyasha just got over a sore throat, so he sounded terrible, Miroku was plucking the stings on his bass and the strings broke, and Rin was banging the drums so much out of frustration 'cause her boyfriend had just broke up with earlier that day and she broke the drums, 'causing a fine that the band would have to pay for.
"Don't remind me." Sango said.
"Why don't we call Mayuka?" Miroku suggested.
"Why? So you can grope her again?" Inuyasha asked.
"No. I'm with Sango now, remember?" Miroku protested.
"Whatever." Inuyasha said. "But she's gonna take over. You know that."
"Yes. But we could use her now." Sango said.
"She's a professional singer too." Rin added. "So it might help us. And we already changed our name so no one will recognize us from last year."
"Fine. You guys win. I'll call her." Inuyasha said. "But what will she do?"
"Sing stupid!" Rin yelled. "Kikyo may be the lead female singer in the band, but Mayuka is much better than her!" Rin yelled.
"And I can bring out the old violin and get rid of the keyboard, just like we used to do before she went on her own." Sango added. "For the battle, we could do the music we used to do before Mayuka left."
"Sounds good." Miroku said.
"OK. We'll do that. And we'll kill the competition." Inuyasha said as he pulled out his cell phone and called Mayuka. He heard it ringing, and then she picked up. "Hey Sis! What's up?" Inuyasha asked. "Great! Listen, we need your help. The Battle of the Bands is coming up in a month and we need you to sing for us. You'll do it? Great! I am not desperate! Everyone else wanted me to call you! I already told you, I'M NOT DESPERATE!" Inuyasha yelled. "Stop babying me! That's NOT funny! Are you gonna help us or am I gonna hang up the phone! OK. We're at the hospital. It's a long story. OK. See-ya." Inuyasha said before hanging up the phone. "Pain in the ass." Inuyasha mumbled.
"So?" Rin asked.
"She'll help us. And she's on her way." Inuyasha replied.
"YES! Owwww!" Rin said as she raised her hand to her head. "My head still hurts." Rin said in a childish voice.
"OK crazy one. You better get some rest." Sango said.
"But I want to see Mayuka." Rin said.
"We'll wake you when she gets here." Inuyasha said. "She said she'd be at least an hour."
Then Kikyo ran in. "I came as soon as I heard!" Kikyo said as she ran into the room.
"Yeah right. We've been here for at least an hour." Inuyasha stated. "And it took my a half hour to get here!"
"Oh Inuyasha. I just found out five minutes ago." Kikyo said. "I got the message on my answering machine." Kikyo said has she put her arms around Inuyasha's neck.
"Get off me Kikyo." Inuyasha said as he pushed Kikyo off of him.
"Kikyo, why don't you leave Inuyasha alone for now? We don't need to make a scene in the hospital." Sango said.
"Fine." Kikyo replied in a whining tone.
"RIN!!!" A girl called as she ran past everyone to Rin. "What happened? Are you OK? Do you need anything? What was the-"
"Kagome. Kagome." Rin said. "Take a breath an chill. I'm fine." Rin said to her younger cousin.
"Sorry. I was just so worried about you. Mom, Grandpa, and Sota all told me to say hi." Kagome said. "Now what was the favor that you needed?"
"Well, I need you to play the drums in a band for me." Rin said.
"WHAT?!" Kagome yelled.
"Kagome. You know all the songs, and everything I taught you, right?" Rin asked. "Well, this is the band." Rin said as she pointed to each person. "This is Inuyasha, he's the band manager, lead guitarist, and sings. This is Kikyo, she sings. This is Miroku. He plays bass and sings. And this is Sango. She does keyboard, but will be changing to violin for a little while. And you know me and I play the drums." Rin introduced everyone. "Everyone. This is my little cousin, Kagome."
"She looks just like ME!" Kikyo yelled.
"I wouldn't say I look JUS like you. I mean, you have a wrinkle right there, and I think that's a mole there." Kagome said.
Inuyasha had to laugh at that. Maybe the new girl wasn't so bad.
"I do not have any wrinkles or moles!" Kikyo yelled.
"True. You probably go to a surgeon once a week to get rid of them." Kagome shot back.
"Why you little-" Kikyo stared.
"Kikyo. Why don't you step outside?" Sango said.
Kikyo walked out while glaring at Kagome. Kagome glared back.
"Kagome. Don't start anything. You're gonna have to work with that girl for the next month." Rin said.
"Is that the favor?! For me to be the drummer for the band?!" Kagome asked.
"I won't go to my grave happy if don't." Rin said as she made a puppy dog pout on her face. "I know you can't resist the pout." Rin said.
"Oh fine! I'll do it!" Kagome said. "But keep that woman away from me unless you want a WWF smack down rumble instead of a band." Then Kagome noticed Inuyasha's ears. "Wow! Cute ears! Are they real?" Kagome asked as she rubbed them.
"Do you have to do that?" Inuyasha asked, not sounding too happy.
"Sorry." She said as she pulled her hands away.
"OK. So you know all our songs, right?" Inuyasha asked.
"I taught her all of them when I taught her to use the drums." Rin replied for Kagome.
"And you don't like Kikyo, right?" Inuyasha asked.
"If that what the bitch's name is, then no." Kagome replied.
"OK. Welcome to The Feudal Age Kids band. You'll fit in perfectly." Inuyasha said.
"Whatever." Kagome said as she shook Inuyasha's hand.
"I think this will work out perfectly. Especially since you to have something in common." Rin said.
"What's that?" Inuyasha asked.
"You both seem to hate Kikyo." Rin said with a smile on her face.
"So what do we do now?" Miroku asked.
"I say we go out for something to eat." Rin said.
"You're in a hospital silly." Sango said.
"Not for long." Rin said as the doctor walked in.
"Hello Rin." The doctor said.
"Hello Sesshomaru." Rin said.
"SESSHOMARU?!" Inuyasha yelled.
"Hello little brother." Sesshomaru said.
"What the hell are you doing here?!" Inuyasha yelled.
"Well, I work here." Sesshomaru replied.
"But I thought you didn't like people?" Inuyasha asked.
"I don't. But I needed a good job so I could earn good money. I do get a lot, so I just work here." Sesshomaru replied.
"Whatever." Inuyasha said.
"Why are you here?" Sesshomaru asked.
"Rin is a good friend of mine. So I had to come and make sure she was OK." Inuyasha said.
"OK." Then Sesshomaru turned back to Rin. "Well, you'll be OK to leave in the morning, but you won't be able to play the drums for a few months because we found some injuries on your arms. The injuries won't heal if you use your arms to actively. OK?" Sesshomaru said.
"Sure." Rin replied. A huge smile on her face, making her look like she was still 12.
(AN- In this story, everyone is 20 except for Kagome and Sesshomaru. Kagome is 17 and Sesshomaru is 23. Just thought I'd let you know.)
"OK, then." Sesshomaru said as he left. "Good-bye." And he was gone.
In the back room where only doctors can go
"OK everyone!" A man yelled. "There is a new project that we have. We have to take a patient home with us to live for a few months!" The man informed everyone.
"WHAT?!" Almost all the doctors yelled.
"I don't like it either, but we have to do it. Now the computer will randomly pick which patient you will have living with you. OK?" The man said. "Hiten! You get Mrs. Yura!"
"WHAT?!" Hiten yelled. "But she's an annoying! She won't leave my hair alone!" He complained.
"Deal with it." The man said. "Sesshomaru! You get Miss Rin!"
Sesshomaru eyes suddenly went wide. "Why me?!" He yelled.
"It's the computer not me." The man said. Then he continued calling names.
Back at Rin's room
Sesshomaru walked in to find everyone still there and Rin still awake. He walked up to Rin.
"Rin?" Sesshomaru asked.
"Yes?" Rin said as put her hair up in to two little buns.
"You need to live with me for a few months." Sesshomaru said.
"What are you talking about? You're my doctor." Rin said.
"It's some dumb project that the doctors have to do. We need a patient to live with us for a few months." Sesshomaru explained. "Every year we get a new project to do that involves the patients, and each year is a different project." Sesshomaru continued to explain. "They had computer randomly pick patients and doctors, and I got stuck with you."
"Oh. I guess that's OK." Rin said. "How bad could it be? At least you're related to Inuyasha."
"And we have to take the patients with us in the morning. So I will be here to pick you up then. And I won't have to come to work for the remainder of the project." Sesshomaru explained. "But I need you to sign this to do it. And if you don't, then I will loose my job." Sesshomaru said as he handed Rin a piece of paper that looked like a contract.
Rin didn't read over it. She just signed it. "Here you go!" She said with that cute smile again.
"Aren't you going to read it?" Sesshomaru asked.
"Why? You already told me everything." Rin said.
Why do I even bother? Sesshomaru thought. Then he left.
