Scene Twenty-Seven: My Blue Rose Changes

Sango stared at the white ceiling above her. There was no feeling in her body to remind her of what she had just done. Of course, the memory was scarred into her mind.

She had taken a knife from the kitchen in her hotel room and locked herself in the bathroom. No note, no tears, just pure instinct had driven her. She herself did not understand her own misery; all she knew was that she was going to end it. So sitting down on the bathroom floor, she placed the knife right under her hand...

But before she could a single person's image in her mind caused her hand to slip, and instead of cutting her wrist, she had slashed through her leg. She threw down the knife and fell into emotional disorder.

"Miroku," she had cried out for him as she laid on the cold tile floor, bathed in her own blood.

But Miroku never came as she shed her tears. The blue rose of loneliness had been presented to her once again. She blacked out.

"Now I'm here..." she whispered to herself as she stroked the bandages on her left leg.

"Finally your awake!" A worried voice came to her ear.

"...Kikyô-san..." Sango said weakly, "I'm sorry, Kikyô, I didn't mean for this to happen..."

"It's okay, Sango, just make sure you're ok," Kikyô said as she stood next to her.

Sango smiled faintly, "You're definitely a better manager than my last," she joked.

Kikyô smiled, "Don't worry, you'll be back to normal in no time."

Sango nodded quietly.

Ayame and Kagome came through the doors after that, with Ginta and Hakkaku behind them.

"Oh! Sango! You're okay!" Kagome exclaimed as she hugged her.

"We came as quickly as we could," Ayame said, "How are you holding up?"

"I'm fine, guys," Sango smiled, "That's what drugs are for."

Hakkaku shook his head, "You joke around to much."

Sango laughed a little, as the two original band members of Du:Plicate walked in.

"Hey, sis," Kôga waved.

"Kôga-onii-chan," Sango waved back.

"What did you think you were doing, Imoto!" Inuyasha exclaimed as he placed his hand on top of her head.

"Hello, Inuyasha," she said, removing his hand.

"So what can your big brothers do to help you out?" Kôga asked as he came over to stand next to Inuyasha.

"Go buy me some Korean candy," Sango smiled.

"How much money you got on ya?" Inuyasha asked Kôga who pulled out his wallet.

"Enough," Koga said as he counted a few bills.

"Okay, we'll go get you your candy, but you better be alive when we get back," Inuyasha warned.

"Bye," Sango waved at the two.

Bankotsu and Jakotsu went inside next.

"Hey," Bankotsu said.

"Geez, Sango, you got us all worked up, I thought you were dying!" Jakotsu said.

"Why'd you bring a guitar?" Sango asked as she pointed to the gig bad strapped to his back.

"Well, I am the new guitarist of Du:Plicate," Jakotsu smirked, "and I thought you may want to be serenaded."

Sango laughed, "You're too cute, Jakotsu."

"I know," Jakotsu smiled.

"Where's Miroku?" Bankotsu asked.

"I'm right here," Miroku said as he opened the door.

"Well, we're going to go help Kôga and Inuyasha, aren't we guys?" Ayame said to everyone else in the room.

Quietly everyone shuffled out of the room, leaving Miroku and Sango alone.

"Where do I start?" Sango asked quietly.

"You don't need to," Miroku said as he walked over to her bedside.

"I didn't—"

"You don't have to tell me anything," Miroku said. "All I needed to know is if you were safe or not.

A tear surfaced upon Sango's cheek. Slowly she wrapped her arms around him, and cried. No words were spoken between them as Sango cried into his shoulder. Miroku comforted her with his presence, and that was all she needed.

"I love you, Miroku," Sango whispered.

"We kind of left in a hurry, do you think she'll be alright?" Ayame asked as they drove down the street looking for Inuyasha and Kôga.

"She's with Miroku, remember?" Ginta pointed out.

"Heh," Bankotsu smirked, "That's gotta be a sin to fuck in a hospital, right?"

"Bankotsu!" Kagome exclaimed as she hit him playfully on the shoulder, "That's naughty..."

"You're such a kid, Kagome-chan," Ayame said as the group laughed.

"I know," Kagome smiled.

"Ah! Look it's Dumb and Dumber!" Hakkaku pointed to a Korean food store.

"Go get them," Ayame instructed as the two canines walked out of the food store, avoiding the fans with their huge sunglasses and big hats.

"Hai," Hakkaku and Ginta nodded as they stepped out of the van and proceeded to abduct the two.

"Oh, hey guys..." Kôga said as Hakkaku pushed him inside.

"What are you doing?" Inuyasha demanded as he too was shoved inside.

"Miroku and Sango are alone in the hospital room," Kagome winked at Inuyasha.

Kôga choked back a laugh, "The way you say that, Kame, makes it sound illegal!"

"It should be!" Kagome said.

"Oh, you mean they're screwing in the hospital room?" Inuyasha asked.

"Who knows? This is Miroku we're talking about," Bankotsu said, "Miroku with his hormone driven mind."

Ayame's phone rang, and Kagome picked it up (because Ayame was driving). "Môshi, môshi?"

Silence was spread through the car as Kagome listened to the person on the other line.

"Okay Kagura, we'll be there A-S-A-P!" Kagome grinned as she put away the phone. "CLOUD666 is due in the recording studio for our album."

"Oh," Ayame said, "Where should we drop you guys off, Du:Plicate and Jakotsu?"

"Hey! I'm part of the band too now!" Jakotsu protested.

"Oh! Wow, really?"

"Yeah, rhythm guitar. That way I can stand closer to Aniki on stage," Jakotsu smirked.

"So where do I drop you guys off?" Ayame asked.

The guys exchanged lost glances at each other.

"Just take us with you, when we get bored..."

"When we get there," Kôga mentioned.

"...We'll call a driver to take us somewhere else."

"Okay," Ayame said. "Where's the studio?"

"North South Japan," Kagome said, "It's on Huang Di Street."

"God it'll be a miracle if we aren't hoarded by fans when we step outta this van," Ayame said.

"It's a pretty private road, so I hope there aren't many," Kagome sighed.

So after a small silent drive, the two bands arrived at a tall black building with a little unnoticeable sign that read: "North South Japan." Ayame parked the van outside and sighed.

"Guess we're here."

"Kagura's here too," Kôga pointed, "and she doesn't look to happy to see us."

"That's strange," Kagome remarked as the group made their way out of the van.

"Ayame," Kagura said directly to the leader of their band, "There's a new situation—and it's just another item to add to your stress levels. Hurry up and get inside."

"What is it, Kagura?" Kagome asked as they all made their way inside and followed Kagura through the halls.

"Well," she started as she turned to face the group... she paused.

"Kagura-san?" Ginta asked in a concerned way.

"You've heard of rabid fans, right?" Kagura stated bluntly.

I've been neglecting this fic, I know, I know. I got sick recently and I didn't feel like getting out of bed—At all. That and my Filipino cousins were on the phone last night and they kept me up. (I haven't spoken to them in five years!) I'm going to try to get back on schedule, but I don't know if I'll be able to get on schedule fast enough for your liking. I apologize now if the next update is five years from now. (Ha, ha, I'm kidding, it'll be done by May at maximum I hope). Read and Review, it keeps my spirits up and the bed bugs away. I must sleep now. (Sneeze)
