Chapter three: Fall Behind Me
Kagome POV
I'm wrapped up like a mummy in a large purple blanket, and I'm wearing Sango's black and white stripped hat, it's pulled right down to my eyebrows. Many colorful scarves are wrapped around my throat. I'm also pinned to the floor by a large duvet.
This is how I woke up this morning, on the living room floor and I don't have a dam clue how I got here. I actually don't remember much of what happened yesterday. I even don't remember entering the house.
Half an hour has passed by sins I woke up. They still haven't noticed me, or they maybe forgot about me. I try to wiggle my legs, but it's no use, my body is completely stiff. I can't move muscle. My next attempt was to speak. I have tried so many times to say something, but nothing comes out.
I start yelling insults in my head to whoever put me in this position; suddenly I feel my nose itch. I try to wiggle it, trying to stop the annoyance, but it doesn't work. The itch then becomes a small sneeze. I sighed. This being stuck-to-the-ground-by-a-duvet thing was getting me really annoyed.
I pair of feet stop right in front of my face. The person kneels down, I see some red hair. It's Ayame.
She smiles, and then gives me a small wave. "Good morning Kagome, did you sleep well?" I nod in response. "So are you ready for our big day?" I frown at her question. "What do you mean you forgot, did you get amnesias when fell in the water?" I give her an alarmed look. "So I guess you don't remember what happened yesterday." I shake my head. "Well yesterday we left you alone in the boat house, when we come back to tell you that we open the house we find you floating in the water. Thank God to CPR the guys saved your life!" I gulp. "Don't worry; Miroku wasn't the one who gave you CPR…" I sigh in relief. "…it was Inuyasha." I jump up into the air. "Hell no!" Ayame backed away from me as if I was a vicious dog.
"It's not as bad as you think, he's a really nice guy deep, deep, deep down inside."
"Are we talking about the same guy Ayame, because the one I'm talking about nicknamed me wench."
"Ok, he does have a rough attitude."
"You mean really rough attitude."
"One day you will see his soft side… that might take ages so wile waiting, lets get ready."
"What for?"
"For the gig of course."
"Oh, I see now."
Ayame took my arm, and pushed me up the stairs.
"What are the boys doing now?"
"Dancing in fields of daises."
"What?"
"No, I'm just kidding, I bet they went back to sleep after they ate."
When we arrived at the top, she pushed me into a bedroom. Sango was on a queen size bed painting her nails black.
"Did you sleep well Kagome?" she said as she blew on her nails.
"Yah I guess so, I don't really remember."
"She kind of got amnesia when she fell in the water."
Pushing me down onto a stool, she turned my face toward a large mirror.
"Now we shall untangle this mace of hair." She said as she started to pass the brush through my hair.
A hand suddenly turns my face toward to left. Sango has white eyeliner in her left hand.
"And because you suck at doing your makeup, I will be your make up artist for today." Sango said.
"But don't you guys also have to get ready." I asked.
"We already did Kagome, don't get worried for nothing." Ayame said as she yanked the brush out of my hair.
"So every thing is ready?"
"Yup, Sango loaded our stuff into the car, I tuned the instruments and Sango and I both practice this morning."
"Wow… I guess we are ready for this."
Ayame stepped back. "Ok, I'm finished." Sango picked up some of the make from the vanity. "Same for me." As they finished their fraises I pushed them out the door.
"And now I have to get dressed." Closing the door shut, I go to the closet and look through it. I take out a pair of torn jeans and black t-shirt, putting some bracelets on my wrist. I slip on my green and blue chequered Vans and go and meet Sango and Ayame.
End POV
Location: Blue forest
The three girls where back stage. Kagome and Ayame hade both their guitars slung across their backs. Sango was hitting her drum sticks together making a beat.
"So, are you guys kind of scared?" Sango asked.
"I don't think so…" Kagome said as she played with her thumbs.
Ayame was currently sitting on the floor in a Buddha position.
"Why is it taking so long?" Sango asked as she jumped up and down.
"Well maybe the group before us has an extra long song." Kagome suggested.
"Yah maybe."
Ayame popped her head in between the two girls. "I believe it is our turn guys." She said as she blew a piece of hair away from her face.
"How do you know?" Sango asked.
"Well, the music stopped, a heard some clapping, the band has exit the stage and last but not least the security man is waving and pointing franticly at the stage to us."
The three girls quickly ran onto the stage, Sango went to the back to her drums, Ayame and Kagome walked to their microphones.
"Hi guys, are you having fun?" The crowed yelled back to her. "Well that's great, lets stop stalling, we are called Luv Lee and we will be playing a little something for you."
Stepping back she strung a couple of cords, Sango then joined. Kagome came in after. As Ayame stepped toward the microphone she started to sing.
I can't believe she bought it
She got too close and she caught it
Had a point, but she forgot it
When you skip steps on the way up
The gaps have a way of catchin up
And you can't cover that with make-up
You're gonna fall behind me
You're gonna cry and beg for mercy
Cause you're not ready baby
And you got nothin on me (you got nothin on me)
Kagome then stepped to the microphone and took over
Now that I'm getting better to know her
Part of me want's to show her
Who she's really screwing over
Cause she's got nothin real
Taking everything she can steal
Just like it was her last meal (last meal last meal last meal...)
Sango then joined Kagome
You're gonna fall behind me
You're gonna cry and beg for mercy
Cause you're not ready and baby.
And you got nothin on me (you got nothing on me)
You're gonna fall behind me
You're gonna cry and beg for mercy
Cause you're not ready baby.
And you got nothin on me (and you got nothin on me)
How long is she gonna be around
And how long do we have to watch her dummin' down
Cause when it's cheap it fades fast
And how long does she think it's gonna last
Kagome and Sango both stop singing as Ayame starts to sing the chorus.
You're gonna fall behind me
you're gonna cry and beg for mercy
Cause you're not ready baby.
And you got nothin on me
You're gonna fall behind me
You're gonna cry and beg for mercy
Cause you're not ready baby.
And you got nothin on me
Kagome and Sango then joined Ayame.
And you got nothin on me
And you got nothin on me
And you got nothin on me
And you got nothin on me
The three girls bowed down. The crowed gave them a standing ovation. Looking at Ayame, Kagome noticed that she had a cheesy smile on her face. They ran backstage, when they were out of site they started to jump around and scream of joy.
"We so nailed them." Ayame said as calmed herself down.
"Yah I know" Sango said.
"Let's get ice cream!" Ayame yelled.
"That's random."
"Yah I know, but craving it."
"You just had some this morning, remember."
"But I'm really craving it a lot."
"You're the junk food princess Ayame."
"Thank you, now let's go and get the boy's!" She said as she pulled both of her friends outside.
End of Chapter
Ok, I'm really sorry that I haven't written for a long time, it's because I stayed like an extra week at my cottage. The good thing is that you don't need to throw rocks and sticks at me because I already got my punishment. While coming back in the car, a whole cooler fell on my back, water poured down my back, and ice cubs went down my pants. I had to stay wet like that for about three hours. And to top that, my friend by accident dropped her ice cappuccino down my leg in the car. That was the most exciting thing that happened this week to me, except during my stay at my cottage I learned that my next door neighbour's fence is electric. I learned that in a painful way.
