Author's note: Hi peoples! I've decided to not stop writing for this. It's so much fun! This weekend's a three-day weekend (we have Friday off) so you'll probably get another one soon. Most likely tomorrow because I'm busy on Sunday. To save space, I'm only putting some of the lyrics here.
Read. Review. Merci!

Kagome trudged to the back of the already growing line, and rubbed her eyes. It was four-thirty, according to her watch. She looked up at the huge sign above the building the line was pushed through, and frowned. Her stomach was turning to butterflies, and she just then noticed how many singers from Japan there was. Some weren't even from Japan.
She set her bag down and stumbled slightly when someone knocked into her. She turned around to see a girl a few years older than her staring at the huge sign. Kagome looked at it as well, biting her lip.
"Japanese Idol." The girl said quietly. "It's open to youkai and humans."
The girl smoothed her black leather pants and quickly pulled her hair back into a high ponytail. Her chocolate eyes found Kagome's.
"I'm Sango." She smiled, extending her hand. Kagome shook it.
"Kagome. I never realized how many people are singers in Japan." She laughed nervously and fiddled with her green coat that came down to her knees.
"Me neither." Sango replied. Her confident smile started to fade.
24 hours later
"Want some?" Kagome asked, tilting her pocky bag towards Sango. She shrugged and took two.
Finally after waiting for over a day, the two girls were in the next group to be led in. They had grown a sort of bond, just sitting there and talking. Kagome and Sango stood when the doors opened, leading them, along with about fifty others, into the building. The younger girl suddenly became weary of her tight blue jeans and green tank top. She pulled her coat tighter to her body.
The contestants were seated by their last names. Higurashi, Kagome, and Taijiya, Sango were across the room from each other. Sango crossed her fingers and smiled at Kagome.
Eventually, "Higurashi, Kagome" was called.
She stood, momentarily forgetting her lyrics. With a deep breath, she glanced back at Sango, and stepped through the tall, wooden door. Her heels clicked on the floor. She had taken off her jacket, and the room was chilly now.
Knowing there was a camera on her, she smiled and took her place in front of three judges.
"Hello," She said cheerfully, trying to mask her fear at seeing one youkai male at the table.
"Hello, Kagome!" The petite woman sitting in the middle smiled. She had her black hair down and her dark eyes sparkling. "My name is Rin, here on my left is Naraku, and on my right is Kikyo." She looked down at the papers in front of her. "So, Kagome, what are you going to be singing for us today?"
"I'm going to be singing In Another Life." Kagome answered.
Rin nodded. The woman to her right, Kikyo, leaned back in his chair.
"You may start." She said, her cold eyes glued to hers. She nodded.
"I get this
feeling deep inside
That somewhere somehow you passed me by
I
can't put my finger on it but
The more that I see you the more
that I know
Everywhere you go is everywhere I've been
You
finish all my sentences before they begin
And I know--"
"That's enough." Naraku waved his hand. Kagome stopped moving and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. Naraku's eyes roamed over her body before he turned his head to Kikyo. "You first."
Kikyo leaned forward. "Not the best vocals I've ever seen, but good enough."
Rin smiled. "I think you have a wonderful voice."
"Horrible." Naraku sneered. "Don't make me hear anymore."
Kagome nodded, taking the comments (and insults) to heart. Kikyo cocked her head.
"In."
"In."
"Out."
Kagome laughed and smiled. "Oh my gawd, I love this!"
"You're going to Tokyo." Rin handed her a blue sheet.
Kagome took it and ran out of the room. "Thank you Lord!"
Sango squealed when she showed her paper and hugged her tightly. "Ohmigod, you're going to Tokyo!"
"I know!"
Kagome followed Sango to her seat just as a "Houshi, Miroku" was called.
