This is just a huge circle of love triangles. As in, for instance Ayame loves Koga, Sango loves Koga and in the beginning Koga likes Sango, later Sango gets rid of Koga because she loves Inu who loves her back, all the while Miroku is in love with Sango until he then falls in love with Ayame. And so on and so forth with other couples. It can all get alittle confusing until it gets written in the story.

You only like my random authors note, About Steve? Or do I have your interest in the story itself also?
To animerox (I think that was the penname)

AIYA! It took so long. I'm so sorry everybody I'll never take four months to add a chapter again. I am now sad though, on Anime spiral I was the first to attempt a Sango/Koga pairing and here there are 16 of them. As some of you may have notice I've posted two chapters of my ragnarok online fic in the time it took one for this. I am simply warning you that well, I'm not a real huge fan of Inu-yasha. This probably wont be updated as much as my Full metal Alchemist story(to be added soon) or my Ragnarok Online fanfictions due to that fact I write this as I get inspiration. So I'm sorry it will usually take atleast two or three months for an update. Just remember as you waiting for an update is that I value quality over quantity and try my best to write longer chapters to make the wait worth while. Though this chapter… this chapter, for me atleast hate That being said I have a sad announcement to make. For the next chapter, your going to have to wait even longer. As of this chapter, it's a jungle has gone frozen. I have also heard that they are deleting songfics, and this story is one giant songfic, as soon as I clear up the rules I may or may not keep this up. If I find songfics are no longer allowed then this will be deleted. I have another Inu-yasha fanfic in the process of being made, but I'm going to finish that before I put it up so you can get weekly updates for that. I have an FMA fic coming AlxOC pairing and a pokemon parody.
Getting in the Band Part: 2
I was sitting on my bed thinking of what to sing for my "audition" after school. Well technically it was already after school but I wasn't expected there till 5pm. Kagome sat at the end of my bed reading my favorite book called Please, remember me… It was a romance, about a girl who lost her memory and a boy who helps her retrieve it. I'd always dreamed of a beautiful romance to happen in my life. But the closest thing to the male lead I have is that lecher Miroku. He never admired me from afar either, though I wish he would.
Back on track anyways, I brushed my hair and did it up, I wanted to look impressive, however because Inu-yasha formed the band it's punk related and I don't really have any punk clothes. So I just wore my black tank top and a pair of blue jeans. I put my hair into a ponytail and applied some blush eyeliner and mascara. I'm not really too big on make up, just enough to get the job done I say. I did some voice warm ups and started to go.
"Kagome C'mon" I said
"Wait, they're about to kiss!" said Kagome leaning closer to the book.
I glared at her grabbed the book and pointed to the door. She grudgingly got up and left. I continued my voice exercises all down the block to Inu-yasha's house. I decided to sing a thousand miles. I just can't find a song in existence that isn't a love song. So I guess the giddy girly part of me decided this but, I'm just going to think of Koga. The whole song as if I was singing it for Koga. After realizing my thoughts I got angry with myself. What's with my newfound obsession with Koga! So he's handsome, and nice, and he thinks the same about that STUPID LECHER Miroku, he's not a god or anything.
I left the house with Kagome right behind. No matter how much I didn't want her to go she wouldn't listen to me she just wanted to see Inu-yasha. However it wasn't her usual infatuation, she was actually serious about the matter. After she had spoken with Kikyo she had been trying to see him since. So on we went. Kikyo and I never really hung out much, but we were pretty good friends. I think this time Kikyo told Kagome something she wouldn't tell me. However I don't really care, if it's something that concerns me I'll find out sooner or later right? I walked up the steps and knocked on Inu-yasha's freshly painted door.
"Hey, come on in Sango…and Kagome?" said Inu-yasha quizzically as Kagome walked in.
"She followed me here." I sighed.
We walked into Inu-yasha's basement, which was where he and his band did most of their practicing. I had heard them two or three times. Kikyo was a good singer but I know for a fact that I'm better. Miroku was casually sitting at the "bar" sipping some nice cool soda pop. Inu-yasha's parents had a bar and a few bedrooms built in the basement. It was almost like a second home underneath their home with the exception of the fact that in the "living room" was all of the band equipment.
"Ah, so my beauty is here at last." Said Miroku
I glared at him not saying a word thinking it would show how much I wanted him to drop dead. He got nervous and walked away. I sat down impatiently and kicked the wall yelling:
"Are we gonna get this over with so he can get outta my face already?"
"Yeah-yeah, chill out," said Inu-yasha after getting back from his chat with Kagome, "what are you singing anyways?"
"A Thousand Miles." I replied
"Then move it bitch." Said Inu-yasha.
"Makin' my way downtown,
Walkin' fast,
Faces pass and I'm homebound.
Starin' blankly ahead,
Just makin' my way,
Makin' a way through the crowd.
And I need you,
And I miss you,
And now I wonder...
If I could fall into the sky,
Do you think time
would pass me by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you...
Tonight.
It's always times like these
When I think of you,
And wonder if you ever think of me.
'Cause everything's so wrong
And I don't belong.
Livin' in your precious memory."
Miroku's smirk was wiped clean off his face. I bet he had never thought I could sing so well. But it was clear on his face that he knew, I was not only a rival to Kikyo, but I left her in the dust. Kikyo is pretty good to begin with too.
"'Cause I need you,
And I miss you,
And now I wonder...
If I could fall into the sky,
Do you think time
would pass me by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you...
Tonight.
I, I, don't wanna let you know
I, I, drown in your memory.
I, I, don't wanna let this go.
I, I, don't. "
I looked over at Miroku, his mouth was open in surprise at my skills. I looked over at Inu-yasha and winked just to piss Miroku off. Inu-yasha's adorable blush came to the surface making my performance even more enjoyable.
"Makin' my way downtown,
Walkin' fast,
Faces pass and I'm homebound.
Starin' blankly ahead,
Just makin' my way,
Makin' a way through the crowd."
Both Kagome and Miroku had that disdainful Jealous look on their faces. I'd forgotten that Kagome was here. I'd have to apologize later.
"And I still need you,
And I still miss you,
And now I wonder...
If I could fall into the sky,
Do you think time
Would pass.. us by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you..."
I slowed down and softened my voice for the ending.
"oh, oh
If I could fall into the sky,
Do you think time would pass me by?
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you.
If I could just hold you...
Tonight."
Kagome just stared at the wall. She was obviously upset about my wink at Inu-yasha. She could be such a baby sometimes. Miroku grabbed my hand, bowed onto one knee and kissed my hand.
"It was an honor to listen to your skillful singing this night Ms.Takahashi," he said dramatically, "We would be honored to have you in our band."
"GET OFF ME PERVERT!" I yelled kicking him in the stomach.
As Miroku curled into a ball I left Inu-yasha to laugh and enjoy his pain. I went and talked to Kagome, and noticed she was crying. Sheesh, I winked at him and now she's crying. I tapped her on the back and gave her my best I-support-you smile. She wiped off her tears but continued to frown.
"Come on Kags," I said, "I only winked at him, it was a friendly thing."
"It's not that." She started crying again.
I rolled my eyes, what was it this time? Did she break a nail, Souta use her nail polish to make a drawing? I pulled out a stool for myself and sat next to her. I poked her once, twice and again once more. It's kinda like our Morse code. If I poked her three times she'd usually stop bawling her eyes out and tell me the hell was bothering her.
"Just go Sango!"
Hmmm, she was being tough. My patience was wearing thin. Sometimes I have to admit, though Kagome is supposed to be my best friend, I don't really understand her. Some times I even prefer Kikyo. I still tried to be supportive and gets what's wring out of her and yet again, nothing. So I gave up and went to gloat and rub the fact that I'm good in Miroku's perverted little face.
"Well Miroku?" I said with a seductive grin, "How was that?"
"It was superb!" said Miroku blushing while trying to regain his "calm cool" composure.
"Am I in?" I said flirtatiously.
"Y-yes!" said Miroku
I loved doing this. It was so funny when Miroku blushed. Though of course courting him like this isn't exactly how I'd get him to leave me alone. Of course I stomped on his foot when I passed him on my way to leave. I think that gave him a hint that I was just leading him on. I decided Kagome could go home on her own. As I went to my home I saw her depart in the direction of her own a few minutes later.
When I got home I happily ran to my room and called Kirara. While we had only been friends for one day, she's still awesome. After that I called Kikyo, and a few other friends in celebration. I made it in!
Well people, there we go; the last chapter before this goes frozen for a few months. I'm sincerely sorry for making you wait 4 months for this puny chapter then telling you, it might be awhile before the next one. I really am, but I'm aiming at finishing this story or getting to atleast chapter 12 before updating again and then doing one chapter at a time for twelve weeks giving myself enough time to finish it. Sorry guys.
