A/N: Wow…lemme tell you everything that has happened. Ok, so first our tennis team won first in the state, even though I lost my game. Then, my other story, Deep in the Snow got accused of plagiarism, then I won $100 from a piano contest, and now I got my yearbook. Three more weeks of school left, one and a half more month until I can drive…legally, lol.
Hem hem: Lol, ok
legallybrntte109: Thanks!
Akiration: Ooo, hope you got a good grade on that, lol. And I love evanescence too, when nobody's home, I like playing their My Immortal song on the piano and sing.
Rae-Orri: OH MY GOD…WOW! MUCHO MUCHO MUCHOS GRACIAS! WOW! LOL! THANK YOU SO MUCH! Doesn't matter if you're the first reviewer, it's the review that counts, right? And I know! No cliffie! WOW huh? Lol, yeah, I watched the notebook again with my friends and haven't seen that in a while. You're right, its too much for kagome and Inuyasha (make out, get naked…?) Lol, but oh well, can't change it. And I bet they just have to wear those skin colored tight clothing thing. Geez! Can't believe I didn't think about it before, should've done like a chick flick….50 first dates or something like that…heh, oh well. Just don't cut the paper and I'll be happy. Lol, yup, drama's good. Thanks for the super long review! Oh yeah! Also thanks for the response to Deep in the Snow…that was awesome! Happy Birthday! I would…fly to Canada, but I'm poor…lol.
Inulova4lyfe: Yeah! I know! She's a good actress though! And those two movies were really good.
Sheshyaddiction: Er…I think I meant nobunaga…he's a character right?
Demonspawn666: You know? That'll be nice, too bad my summary tells the future. Good idea though, you could write a story about that, I'd totally support and review it! Or I'll just write it, cause it is a great idea, lol.
Julie: Dang! Another mistake? Geez! Good job!
Miroku: Lol, aw…thanks! Heh, sucks for you! Jk.
A/N: Ok, so I've noticed another mistake…well, actually, a cool reviewer, Julie, realized that…it's actually, Inuyasha knew she (he) would miss her, Kikyo, his fiancé. Yup, keep writing! Haha, that was like the most important line and I just had to mess up on it. Lol, Julie, you should be like my editor or something. Now, I've written a page, so on with the story!
Crawling in the Dark
Chapter Ten
"I was so afraid
Of going under,
But now
The weight of the world
Feels like nothing, no, nothing."
- On the Way Down by Ryan Cabrera
Kagome tapped her feet patiently as she sat in the chair. It was already 6pm; the girls that played Allie were sitting in rows of seats. When the judges came out and called your name, you go in a room and perform to them.
"Higurashi, Kagome." Nobunaga said, holding a sheet of paper.
Kagome stood up and took in a breath, this was it. She received a lot of smiles and good lucks from the other girls, but she knew they didn't mean it. They all wanted the part as bad as she did.
As she got in the room, all eyes were on her. A girl named Kagura, as Kagome remembered, stood up and said, "We don't have much time, so let's perform the parts. First, do the scene I, act III, the ferris wheel scene. We will be reciting Noah's part. Now, take a seat on the chair."
The chair was faced towards the judges, Kagome's heart was pounding. She took in a deep breath.
&
"Well, you leave me no choice," Nobunaga recited.
Kagome gasped and screamed, "Get down! You're gonna kill yourself!"
"Will you go out with me?"
She opened her mouth in shock, "What?" She said to the empty space ahead of her as if it were an idiot, "No!"
"No?"
"No!" She declared even louder and looked around to make sure she's not imagining it.
"Why not?"
"I don't know," She put her hands out in front of her and rolled her eyes, "Because I don't want to?" It was more of a question than an answer.
"Alright, well, you leave me with no other choice."
Kagome screamed, this was the part where he's supposed to be hanging on the ferris wheel with one hand.
"Let me ask you one more time, do you or do you not want to go out with me? My hand's slipping."
Kagome almost wanted to laugh; Nobunaga's enthusiasm was pretty bad. Of course, laughing could ruin her whole audition.
"Grab the bar you idiot!" Kagura recited, she was just another person on the ferris wheel.
"Not till she agrees." Nobunaga said once more.
"Aw, go out with him honey." Kagura said.
"Ok, ok!" She nodded her head quickly, as if scared he might fall, "I'll go out with you!"
"Don't do me any favors."
"No, no, I want to go out with you!" She screamed that so loud, everyone in the building must have heard her.
"Say it again."
"I want to go out with you!" Kagome screamed again.
"Alright, alright, we'll go out."
&
"Good job Kagome, nicely done, I know it must have been hard with Nobunaga reciting Noah's part." Kagura laughed.
"Onto the next part," Said Mantan, one of the visual directors, "Act III, scene VII."
&
"We'll finish out this summer and see what happens." Nobunaga started again.
Kagome's mouth opened in shock, "Are you saying you wanna break up?"
"What I'm saying is let's see how it goes later on."
"You're breaking up with me," Kagome whispered while looking up from the ground, staring into 'Noah's' eyes.
"I don't see how its gonna work out."
"No,no," She said as sadly as desperately as possible, "Please don't do this...you don't mean it! If you knew you ere gonna do it, why wait till the summer ends, huh?" She rose her voice on the last sentence.
She walked up to 'Noah's car' "Why didn't you just do it right now?" Kagome pushed him against the invisible car.
"C'mon!" She pushed him again, "Do it!" And again, "do it!" Now, she tried bringing out some tears, it didn't work, but her face might have turned a little red. "Do it, do it, do it! She slapped him and then backed off, as if realizing the truth, "You know what? I'll do it!" She slammed the door, "It's over! Ok! It's over!"
She backed off even more from the car and him, "Don't touch me! I hate you! I hate you!" She fake sobbed, "Why don't you just go! Leave!" She kicked his car, "Go! Go!"
She stands there and started fake crying and then all of the sudden go up to his car in a calmer and desperate voice, "No, no, just wait a minute, we're not really breaking up, are we?"
Now, Noah's supposed to drive his car.
Kagome yelled hopelessly after him, "This is just a fight we're having, and tomorrow it'll be like it never happened, right?"
&
"I have to say Kagome; I am very pleased with your acting. Not only did you get down the lines, but you connected with the story. While you were acting, I felt something. Tell me if this is too personal, but do you relate to the story?" Kagura asked while smiling.
Kagome thought blankly for a second, "No, ma'am, I can't relate."
"Then how did you get yourself to almost cry. Sure, you thought I couldn't see it, but I still see the twinkle in your eyes." Kagura smiled again.
Kagome smiled, she was so relieved that they have noticed, "I don't know, I guess I just put myself in her place as real as possible and try to relate to her as much as I can."
"I'm glad you really connect with the story, thank you for your time Ms. Kagome. We will post the results here tomorrow morning."
"Thank you." With that, Kagome exit the door, when she got out, she sighed a relieved sigh.
&
Inuyasha yawned as he entered the audition room. He was slouching as he walked in. Seeing the three judges, he quickly regained posture.
"So you're Inuyasha?" A guy said to him.
Inuyasha nodded.
"That's yes for you sir," A girl shook her head, "Stand up straight, eyes towards us, feet together, and stop dangling your arms!" She sighed, "Do you expect to make the part like that?"
That's when it hit him, of course! He was here to be in the big movie! "Sorry Ms. Um…"
"Kagura."
"Yes, Kagura."
The judges all shook their heads and sighed, this was going to be another boring audition.
"We don't have much time, so let's perform the parts. First, do the scene I, act III, the ferris wheel scene. I will be reciting Allie's part. See the pole right there? That would be the place you hang on. You don't really have to hang on it, just as long as your hands are grasping it." Said Kagura.
&
Inuyasha grasped both hands tightly on the ferris wheel and smirked.
"Get down, you're gonna kill yourself!" Said Kagura plainly.
"Will you go out with me?" He kept his position and the smirk.
"No!"
"No?" Inuyasha turned his head slightly, as if teasing her.
"No."
"Why not?" He said seriously.
"I don't know, cause I don't want to?"
"Alright, well, you leave me no other choice then," He said this part with a lot of sighs, and then pulled a hand off the bar. "Lemme ask you one more time, will you or will you not go out with me?" He sucked in a breath and smirked again, "Dang, my hand is slipping."
"Grab the bar you idiot!" A judge guy said.
"Not till she agrees!" Inuyasha said stubbornly.
"Aw, go out with him honey." The judge guy said once again.
"Ok, ok, fine, I'll go out with you." Kagura said.
"Don't do me any favors," He raised an eyebrow.
"No, no, I want to go out with you."
Inuyasha smirked put his other hand back on the bar, "Alright, aright, we'll go out."
&
"That was pretty good, you act better than your behavior. Keep that acting, and improve that behavior." Kagura said.
"Now, do the break up scene." The guy said.
&
After Inuyasha's auditions, he went to a restaurant, where he'd just relax and eat by himself. He figured he would see Kikyo tomorrow. The auditions didn't go very well, according to him, the judges didn't like him. They had a problem with his attitude, it wasn't his fault!
Now, he'll just have to get time to pass by quickly and tomorrow morning he'll go see who made it and head home.
&
"Hey guys, how did practice go?" Kagome entered Sango and Ayame's room.
Sango sighed, "Not too well, we messed up a whole bunch."
"Aw…I'm sorry," Kagome sat on the couch, "Did anyone else mess up?"
"Well, yeah." Sango laughed, "Everyone did."
"Then what are you so sad about?"
"It's just I should have remembered the whole thing, I did it this morning. If I did, the instructor might have put me on a solo and same with Ayame."
"Oh, I'm sure you'll get it anyways Sango." Kagome laughed.
"Enough about me, what about you? How did auditions go? I would be sad if you left tomorrow."
Kagome nodded her head a few times, "It went pretty well actually. The judges told me I did great, but then they probably tell that to everyone."
"So when do you know who made it?"
"Tomorrow morning, oh, I'm so nervous…" Kagome sucked in a breath.
"I bet you did great."
"Thanks, Sango."
&
Early next morning, Kagome got up, put her clothes on messily and headed towards the auditorium, the place they auditioned.
There was already a huge crowd of people gathered around it. Kagome waited patiently and after about what seemed like half an hour, the crowd in front of her was almost gone. Kagome could see the piece of paper with names on it.
She squeezed to the front and looked at the long list of the cast.
"Let's see," she said to herself, "Rower, Nurse, Duke, Harry, Barker, Fin, Sara, Allie!"
Her fingers went along the line to the other side of the paper. She screamed so loud, everyone in the world would have heard her, "Oh my god! No way! Holy crap!"
She turned around, realizing all eyes were on her, not like she cared. She just got the main character.
"I'm Allie!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. There were a lot of whispers that followed. Kagome guessed that it was either criticism, 'why did she get the part?' or disappointment, 'that means I didn't get it.'
Whatever though, she got the part, this was the beginning of her new life. Her first movie would be The Notebook.
Kagome walked happily down the streets, back to her apartment, she was going to tell her friends and everybody else she could think of.
As she turned around the corner, she bumped into a man and fell onto her butt.
"Hey, watch it!" The man yelled.
Kagome lifted her head to see him clearly, she gasped and whispered, "Inuyasha."
Heh, on with my cliffhangers again. Those are just so fun! Oh yeah, sorry Rae-Orri, I meant to update on your birthday, but didn't finish the chapter, lol.
Please leave a review!
