Chapter Nine: Karaoke.
When she woke up se wasn't sure where she was. She could hardly open her eyes because it was so bright. Once she tried to move her hand to shield her eyes she heard the door open and some talking. She turned her head slightly and saw Sango, Miroku, and Inuyasha.
"Are you ok?" Sango asked as she kneeled beside her.
Kagome tried her best to nod. Miroku grabbed her hand and gave her a worried look.
"Kagome what happened? I thought you said those dreams were gone?"
"I… thought so too. I saw her. She just laughed and watched you guys die one by one… except… Inuyasha… tried to…" She took a deep breath," He was already dead and trying to take me with him. Then all of a sudden I was in my shrine and it was on fire. Souta was dead and my mom and grandpa were trapped by flames. I closed my eyes again and I felt like I was falling. When I opened them I really was falling… Kouga pushed me out a window and was laughing as I fell. Before I hit the ground I somehow woke up in a hospital bed with Houjo sitting beside me but he was dead. Kikyo was saying that Yash went to jail for trying to kill me, Sango and Miroku killed themselves along with Kouga, and now it was my turn. That's when she injected this stuff in my arm and it felt like someone was choking me… Before I supposedly passed out I saw red and that woman told me that she would never leave." By now Kagome was crying her heart out and Sango was holding her.
Miroku was sitting on the side of the bed looking at his hands and Inuyasha had his head down while leaning against the wall.
"Stop crying Kagome… That isn't going to help."
"Yash shut up!" Sango yelled at him for his insensitivity.
"No! I mean I'm all up for you getting it off your chest and all but this crying has got to stop."
"Yash!" Miroku yelled as he stood up.
None of them noticed that Kagome had stopped crying and was listening to what he said.
"It's your fucking dream you do what you want and you need to stick up to her!"
By now Miroku had Inuyasha pinned against the wall by his shirt and they were glaring at each other.
"Miroku… stop. He's right. It's my dream and I'll do as I please…"
Miroku looked at Kagome and then mumbled a quiet 'Sorry' to Inuyasha and let him go.
"Now Sango help her get ready. We're going out." Inuyasha signaled Miroku to follow him out the room.
"Sango? Where am I?"
"My house. We took you here after you cried yourself to sleep."
"Oh…"
While Sango and Kagome got ready Inuyasha and Miroku left to g ready too.
-Later that night-
Inuyasha had taken them all to high school hide out he knew of. They sat at a table and ordered something to eat when a man came on stage.
"Don't forget ladies and gents. Tonight is Boys Karaoke night and first prize is 500 bucks! Second place gets a t-shirt and 250 bucks! And third gets the shirt and 125 bucks! Don't worry there will only be one round. Only two guys to a group. You'll sing one song and you better hurry and sign up 'cuz there can only be three groups."
The room cheered and Kagome got an idea.
"Inuyasha would you sing for me?"
"What?"
"I mean compete. Please?" She did the best puppy-dog face she could and Inuyasha laughed.
"Fine just stop making that face… you look constipated."
She playfully hit his arm and he laughed and grabbed Miroku.
"Hey-"
"Shut up. I got the perfect song."
When they got over there they were lucky because there was only one spot left. Kagome and Sango were talking when they got back.
"Ok we signed up."
Kagome squealed, hugged him, and gave him a chaste kiss on the lips, which turned into a full out deep heartfelt kiss. It ended when the man came back on the stage.
"All right everyone we have our three contestants. First up, Haku Shota and Tai Mariku singing 'Harder to Breathe' by 'Maroon5'!"
Haku:
How dare you say that my behavior is unacceptable
So condescending unnecessarily critical
I have the tendency of getting very physical
So watch your step cause if I do you'll need a miracle
Tai:
You drain me dry and make me wonder why I'm even here
This double vision I was seeing is finally clear
You want to stay but you know very well I want you gone
Not fit to fuckin' tread the ground I'm walking on
Haku and Tai:
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love.
You'll understand what I mean when I say.
There's no way we're gonna give up.
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams.
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe.
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe.
Tai and Haku:
What you are doing is screwing things up inside my head
You should know better you never listened to a word I said
Clutching your pillow and writhing in a naked sweat
Hoping somebody someday will do you like I did
Haku and Tai:
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love.
You'll understand what I mean when I say.
There's no way we're gonna give up.
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams.
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe.
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe
Haku:
Does it kill
Does it burn
Is it painful to learn
That it's me that has all the control
Tai:
Does it thrill
Does it sting
When you feel what I bring
And you wish that you had me to hold
Haku and Tai:
When it gets cold outside and you got nobody to love.
You'll understand what I mean when I say.
There's no way we're gonna give up.
And like a little girl cries in the face of a monster that lives in her dreams.
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe.
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe.
Is there anyone out there cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe.
A lot of people stood up and clapped and a lot whistled as well.
"Next up is Jinto Tagami and Niko Tagami singing 'Nobody Puts Baby in the Corner' by 'Fall Out Boy'!"
Two twin boys walked up to the stage and began to sing the song.
Jin:
'Drink down that Gin and Kerosene,
And come spit on bridges with me,
Just to keep us warm.
Light a match to leave me be.
Light a match to leave me be.'
Niko:
'I keep my jealousy close,
'Cause it's all mine.
And if you say this makes you happy,
Then I'm not the only one lying.'
Jin and Niko:
Keep quiet,
Nothing comes as easy as you.
Can I lay in your bed all day?
I'll be your best kept secret
And your biggest mistake.
The hand behind this pen relives a failure every day.
Niko:
And I keep my jealousy close,
'Cause it's all mine.
And if you say this makes you happy,
Then I'm not the only one lying.
Jin:
Drink down that Gin and Kerosene,
And come spit on bridges with me,
Just to keep us warm.
Light a match to leave me be.
Light a match to leave me be.
Jin and Niko:
Keep quiet,
Nothing comes as easy as you.
Can I lay in your bed all day?
I'll be your best kept secret
And your biggest mistake.
The hand behind this pen relives a failure every day.
Jin:
So wear me like a locket around your throat.
I'll weigh you down.
I'll watch you choke.
You look so good in blue.
You look so good in blue.
So wear me like a locket around your throat.
I'll weigh you down.
I'll watch you choke.
You look so good in blue.
You look so good in blue.
(Niko: )
So wear me like a locket around your throat. (Keep quiet)
I'll weigh you down. (Nothing comes as easy as you)
I'll watch you choke.(Can I lay in your bed all day?)
You look so good in blue.(You look so good in blue)
You look so good in blue.(You look so good in blue)
Niko:
Keep quiet,
Nothing comes as easy as you.
Can I lay in your bed all day?
I'll be your best kept secret
And your biggest mistake.
The hand behind this pen relives a failure every day.
(Jin: )
Keep quiet,( So wear me like a locket around your throat)
Nothing comes as easy as you. (I'll weigh you down.)
Can I lay in your bed all day? (I'll watch you choke)
I'll be your best kept secret (You look so good in blue)
And your biggest mistake. (You look so good in blue)
The hand behind this pen relives a failure every day.
Keep quiet,( So wear me like a locket around your throat)

Can I lay in your bed all day? (I'll watch you choke)
I'll be your best kept secret (You look so good in blue)
And your biggest mistake. (You look so good in blue)
The hand behind this pen relives a failure every day.
Everyone clapped and a few whistled. They were good but Inuyasha knew he could do better.
"Last but not least we have Inuyasha Takahashi and Miroku Kazana singing 'Animals' by 'Nickelback'!"
Inuyasha smirked and looked at Kagome while he began.
Yash:
I, I'm driving black on black.
Just got my license back.
I got this feeling in my veins this train is coming off the track.
I'll ask polite if the devil needs a ride.
Because the angel on my right ain't hanging out with me tonight.
I'm driving past your house while you were sneaking out.
I got the car door opened up so you can jump in on the run.
Your mom don't know that you were missing.
She'd be pissed if she could see the parts of you that I've been kissing.
Screamin'
Roku and Yash:
No, we're never gonna quit
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Just acting like we're animals
No, no matter where we go
'Cause everybody knows
We're just a couple of animals
So come on baby, get in
Get in, just get in
Check out the trouble we're in
Roku:
You're beside me on the seat.
Got your hand between my knees.
And you control how fast we go by just how hard you wanna squeeze.
It's hard to steer when you're breathing in my ear.
But I got both hands on the wheel while you got both hands on my gears,
By now, no doubt that we were heading south.
I guess nobody ever taught her not to speak with a full mouth,
'Cause this was it, like flicking on a switch,
It felt so good I almost drove into the ditch.
I'm screamin'
Roku and Yash:
No, we're never gonna quit
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Just acting like we're animals
No, no matter where we go
'Cause everybody knows
We're just a couple of animals
So come on baby, get in
Get in, just get in
Look at the trouble we're in
Yash:
We were parked out by the tracks
We're sitting in the back
And we just started getting busy
When she whispered "what was that?"
The wind, I think 'cause no one else knows where we are
And that was when she started screamin'
"That's my dad outside the car!"
Oh please, the keys, they're not in the ignition
Must have wound up on the floor while
we were switching our positions
I guess they knew that she was missing
As I tried to tell her dad it was her mouth that I was kissing
Screamin'
Roku and Yash:
No, we're never gonna quit
Ain't nothing wrong with it
Just acting like we're animals
Animals
No, no matter where we go
'Cause everybody knows
We're just a couple of animals
Animals
So come on baby, get in
Get in, just get in
Check out the trouble we're in
Roku: (Yash: )
So come on baby, get in
(We're just a couple of animals)
Get in, just get in
(Ain't nothing wrong with it)
Check out the trouble we're in
(Get in, just get in)
This time they had everyone their standing and clapping their hands off. And since every part Inuyasha sang alone he looked at Kagome she could still hear the girls around her giggling while her face was redder than a tomato. When he walked back to his table he grabbed Kagome and kissed her with all his heart. Around her she could hear girls sigh dreamily as
she smiled against the kiss and wrapped her arms around Inuyasha's neck.
"We have decided our winners so everyone shut up."
Inuyasha broke the kiss and smirked at Kagome.
"Contestant number Two please stand up."
The two twins stood and looked at him.
"Third place."
They nodded and sat back down.
"Contestant number One. Please stand."
They stood up and waited.
"Second place."
They grinned and sat back down.
"Which means contestant number Three has won first place!"
Everyone clapped as the two boys went on stage and collected their money. Inuyasha gave $250 to Miroku and kept his half.
-After the contest, at the mall-
They were surprised to see the mall still open and a lot of people still there. Inuyasha told Miroku Sango and Kagome to go do what they wanted but he had something to take care of. Miroku knew what he was talking about and said he'd come with him. They headed straight to the jewelry shop and the man greeted him.
"Ah Takahashi. You're plan worked?"
"Yup!"
The old man pulled out a red velvet box and Inuyasha opened it. It was a bracelet with rubies that formed to say 'Number One Girl'. He then pulled out a violet velvet box and gave it to Miroku.
"You sneaky Bouzo. You knew I'd need you to help me sing didn't you?"
Miroku grinned and showed him what was in it. It was a necklace with small purple diamonds that formed to say 'Be Mine'.
"This is perfect."
They paid the man and said thanks as they left. Inuyasha sniffed the girls out and they were at the food court. He tiptoed behind Kagome and kissed her cheek. She giggled.
"What's got you in such a good mood?"
"Nothin'…" She smiled and they went back to eating.
Inuyasha took everyone home and Kagome decided to let him spend the night since se knew her mom would say yes. Inuyasha called his house and asked and they also agreed, mumbling something about finally being rid of him for a night. Inuyasha walked to Kagome's room and she was already in bed. He took off his shoes, socks, and shirt then crawled into bed with her. She kissed him and then cuddled up to him as they drifted off to sleep.
I personally would love that necklace and that bracelet. I love anything that resembles the shininess of a diamond. Well let me know if you like this chapter and don't forget to review/email me if you want to hear the songs. Bye now!
