Chapter 16/ the show!

A/N: Darn, I really need to work on my project….oh well it can wait. Now what I want to say is…WARNING! IN THIS CHAPTER I WILL USE SONGS THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN MADE BY OTHER. WHAT IM SAYING IS THAT I DON'T OWN ANY OF THE SONGS AND GIVE CRETET TO THE SINGERS EVEN THOUGHT I WILL SAY THAT THEY MADE THE SONGS UP. Ok with that said on with the chapter!

Disclaimer: I own this story! Is that enough?

The show!

O.o

"Shut up!"

"Make me!"

"Sit!" Ayame and Sango sighed. When they came out into the waiting room Inuyasha was the only one their, he then asked that Kagome hurry and get ready. Well that started a fight. A string of curses filled the air. Koga and Miroku walked in then.

Inuyasha, Miroku, and Koga wore what they wore when Kagome first say them on the magazine cover. They were so predictable.

"Ready?" Koga asked. The girls nodded.

"Good cause we have a while." Miroku said. Ayame groaned.

"Their not here yet?" She asked. Miroku shook his head no. She sighed and plopped down on the sofa that was in their. She was followed by Sango the Kagome.

"So what do we till then?" Sango asked. Miroku smiled and opened his mouth. "Don't even think about it Miroku." Sango said. He closed his mouth. The spell had worn off and Inuyasha grumbled as he got up and sat at the other side of the room, away from everyone. Koga took out some cards.

"How about some Swedish rummy?" Everyone but Inuyasha agreed.

"Come on Inuyasha! Come play with us!" Kagome called out. Inuyasha glared at her signaling a no way! Kagome huffed in defeat.

They all sat at the table in this order: Koga, Ayame, Sango, Miroku, and Kagome. Shippo came in during the middle of the first game and sat in Kagome's lap dressed in and orange shirt and black pants with his tail sticking out. He looked so cute! Inuyasha still didn't join and Kagome was getting frustrated. He was so anti-social! She had tried numerous times to get him to play card with them, still no lucky. What was he afraid of?

SMACK!

Kagome turned to see Miroku with a red handprint on his face. Kagome sighed, if he keeps up that print will be permanent. Sango was fuming.

"Come on Sango, I thought after all this time together you wouldn't mind-"

"Bull! No girl likes to be feeled up!" Sango yelled. Miroku was unaffected.

"But I was just appreciating your body." Sango groaned.

"I give up!" Ayame sighed. She leaned over to whisper something in her ear. Apparently it was something good because she grinned. Ayame sat back and was waiting for Koga to make his move in the game, he was taking forever! She closed her eyes and started to daydream about him. Her tail flicked in happiness at her thoughts. She couldn't deny it any longer: she had fallen for Koga. Down side was that she knew he didn't feel the same for her. She sighed.

"Ayame! Your turn." Shippo's voice broke threw her thoughts. Back to the game.

O.o

It was time for the concert. Kagome, Sango, Ayame, and Shippo were nervous.

"Break a leg you four!" Miroku called out. The four of them were just about to go on. They knew the songs, they knew the order, and they just weren't ready for the public! The announcer person came on to introduce them.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, before Domestic comes out, please give a warm welcome to the newest banders: K.A.S.!" Applause sounded with a few boo's as well but that's how it goes. The guys smiled at the four pale faces.

"Need help moving?" Inuyasha smirked. Kagome glared over her shoulder.

"No thank you. But can you three do us a favor?" They agreed. "Listen to the lyrics that we sing." And with that Kagome walk forward followed but the rest leaving the guys confused. They took their places on the stage: Kagome at the microphone, Sango on the guitar, Ayame on the drums, and Shippo on the keyboard. Kagome nodded to the curtain person and he opened them to revile a huge crowed waiting for them to start. Kagome glanced off stage to see Inuyasha and made eye contact with him. The keyboard started and Kagome took a huge breath.

Any moment, everything can change,
Feel the wind on your shoulder,
For a minute, all the world can wait,
let go of your yesterday.

Kagome glanced a few more times at Inuyasha hinting that she was singing this to him. Hopefully he'll get it.

Can you hear it calling?
Can you feel it in your soul?
Can you trust this longing?
And take control,

Kagome started moving a little, moving with the beat that the others were setting.

Fly (Sango, Ayame, and Shippo join)
Open up the part of you that wants to hide away
You can shine,
Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
And start to try, cause it's your time,
Time to fly.

Inuyasha heard the crowed yelling its approval.

All your worries, leave them somewhere else, (Just Kagome)
Find a dream you can follow,
Reach for something, when there's nothing left,
And the world's feeling hollow.

Inuyasha watched her dance about and saw her enjoying this. He laughed to him self. That's just like her. But why was did she say for him to listen?

Can you hear it calling?
Can you feel it in your soul?
Can you trust this longing?
And take control,

Fly (Everyone)
Open up the part of you that wants to hide away
You can shine,
Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
And start to try, cause it's your time,
Time to fly.

And when you're down and feel alone, (Kagome)
Just want to run away,
Trust yourself and don't give up,
You know you better than anyone else,

Kagome made eye contact with him and he finally understood. Kagome was singing this to him!

Any moment, everything can change,
Feel the wind on your shoulder,
For a minute, all the world can wait,
Let go of yesterday,

By now Kagome was dancing to the song at full force. This was so much fun! She glanced at Inuyasha again and notices that he finally under stood. She looked at Koga and Miroku and almost laughed. They were dancing to the song!

Fly (Everyone)
Open up the part of you that wants to hide away
You can shine,
Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
And start to try,

Fly
Forget about the reasons why you can't in life,
And start to try, cause it's your time,
Time to fly.

In a moment, everything can change. (Kagome)

The music reverberated threw out the place as the last note was struck. Kagome breathed a sigh of relief. The lights dimmed and the crowed cheered. Kagome turned and smiled at the rest. Now for the switch! Ayame got up and switched places with Kagome. They smiled a good luck to each other as Ayame prepared for this. She looked over at Koga and smiled at him, he smiled back. The lights came back on and Shippo started things with the piano sound. Ayame started the song.

Turn it inside out so I can see (Ayame)
The part of you that's drifting over me
And when I wake you're never there
But when I sleep you're everywhere
You're everywhere

Ayame glanced at Koga a few more times before turning to the crowed.

Just tell me how I got this far
Just tell me why you're here and who you are
'Cause every time I look
you're never there
And every time I sleep
you're always there

'Cause you're everywhere to me (Everyone)
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know
that makes me believe
I'm not alone
I'm not alone

Koga couldn't believe how good Ayame sang. Didn't she say that she couldn't sing? Well that was bull. But why is she glancing at me so much?

I recognize the way you make me feel (Ayame)
It's hard to think that
you might not be real
I sense it now, the water's getting deep
I try to wash the pain away from me
Away from me

Ayame was dancing to the music and was having the time of her life. They should do this more often!

'Cause you're everywhere to me (Everyone)
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know
that makes me believe
I'm not alone
I'm not alone
(Insert Sango jamming on the guitar)
I am not alone (Ayame)
Whoa, oh, oooh, oh

The crowed cheered Sango for her guitar solo thing! Inuyasha glanced over at Koga to see him confused. He sighed.

"Hey dumb butt, she is singing this song to you."

Koga's eyes widened.

And when I touch your hand
It's then I understand
The beauty that's within
It's now that we begin
You always light my way
I hope there never comes a day
No matter where I go
I always feel you so

Koga blushed at his stupidity and sighed. He listened to the rest of the song thinking.

'Cause you're everywhere to me (Everyone)
And when I close my eyes it's you I see
You're everything I know
that makes me believe
I'm not alone

'Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I catch my breath
it's you I breathe
You're everything I know
that makes me believe
I'm not alone

You're in everyone I see (Ayame)
So tell me
Do you see me?

Ayame stole one more glance at Koga and found him in deep thought. Did he get it? Or was he contemplating life? She sighed, she hoped he got it. The lights dimmed again and another switch was made: Ayame and Sango. Sango was ready for this. This song was perfect! She made eye contact with Miroku and smirked at him. Miroku just smiled and gave thumbs up. The lights came back up and Ayame struck a cord to start it off.

It's been three days (Sango)
You come around here like you know me
Your stuff at my place
Next thing you know, you'll be using my toothpaste
Step up, sit down
Get ready, let me tell you who's the boss now
Stay here, get out
Every time I turn around you're in my face

Don't care where you think you've been, and how you're getting over
If you think you've got me down
Just wait it gets much colder

Sango smirked at the lyrics she made. She looked directly at Miroku and saw him staring at her…body! Ugh!

Here I am, (Everyone)
As perfect as I'm ever gonna be
You'll see
Love me for me
Stick around,
I'm not the kinda girl you wanna leave
You'll see
Love me for me

Shut up, come back (Sango)
No I didn't really mean to say that
I'm mixed up, so what
Yea you want me so you're messed up too
I love you, I hate you
If you only knew what I've been through

My head is spinnin'
But my heart is in the right place
Sometimes it has to have it's self a little earthquake

Sango was dancing with the song. Miroku nudged Inuyasha.

"What do you make of this?" He heard Inuyasha sigh.

"Are both of you so dense? She telling you to stop friggen groping her, and love her for herself not body, duh." Miroku sighed.

"That's what I thought."

Here I am, (Everyone)
As perfect as I'm ever gonna be
You'll see
Love me for me
Stick around,
I'm not the kinda girl you wanna leave
You'll see
Love me for me

I've been waiting all my life (Sango)
To finally find you
Just so I can push you away
And when you're crawling over broken glass to get to me
That's when I'll let you stay

Sango at her choice and was enjoying herself greatly. Maybe they could start a real band? Although Kagome needs to actually learn how to play the drums and not just memories the beats, oh well, that's Kagome for ya.

Oh, here I am (Everyone)
As perfect as I'm ever gonna be
You'll see
Love me for me
Stick around,
I'm not the kinda girl you wanna leave
You'll see
Love me for me
Love me for me

Whoa, here I am
As perfect as I'm ever gonna be
You'll see
Love me for me
Stick around,
I'm not the kinda girl you wanna leave
You'll see
Love me for me

The crowed loved it! They were a hit. Everyone smiled at each other. Shippo was jumping up and down with joy soon followed by Ayame and Kagome. Sango laughed then jumped with them, that was so much fun! The lights dimmed and the four walked off stage with the crowed screaming for an encore. Shippo ran off to the refreshments table and started eating. The girls walked over to the boys and smiled at them.

"So what did ya'll think?" Sango asked.

"Loved it!" Miroku answered. He walked over and grabbed Sango's hands. "I never knew you felt that way!"

"Felt what way?"

"Aw you know, you said you loved me!" Sango twitched. She looked over at Kagome and Ayame who were laughing.

"I did?" She squeaked.

"Afraid so Sango, 'I love you, I hate you', I never knew you felt that way!" Kagome managed to say. Before anything else was said the announcer came on.

"Thank you K.A.S.! And now for the main reason ya'll are here, Domestic!" The crowed cheered and the guys went to prepared. The girls turned to head for the refreshment table for a drink. Kagome stopped to tie her shoe, when she was about to walk off someone grabbed her arm. She turned to regard who ever it was and was shocked to see that it was Inuyasha.

"Yes?" She asked. Kagome was lost in his eyes. They were so beautiful. Whoa, hold up Kag, were did that come from!

"Listen to what I sing, ok?" Kagome nodded. "And tell Sango to listen to Miroku and Ayame with Koga, alright?"

"Sure." He turned to leave when he stopped.

"By the way, you sing great." Kagome blushed at the complement.

"Thank you."

"Feh." He then walked off. Kagome ran to tell Sango and Ayame to listen to Miroku and Koga. The crowed screamed as they made their way to the stage. Koga picked up his guitar and started to play. Inuyasha walked up to the microphone waiting. Miroku started soon after Koga and he and Koga did an eco thing, it sounded really cool! Inuyasha made eye contacted with Kagome. She smiled and mouthed a good luck.

I've given up, I'm giving up slowly, I'm blending in so (Inuyasha)
You won't even know me apart from this whole world that shares my fate
This one last call that You mentioned is my one last shot at redemption
because I know to live you must give your life away
And I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity and
I've been locked inside that house all the while You hold the key
And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
And even though, there's no way in knowing where to go, promise I'm going because
I gotta get outta here (Everyone)
I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
I gotta get outta here
And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, I'm begging You to be my escape.

Kagome gasped. He was asking for her help! Maybe he does care a little bit about her.

I'm giving up I'm doing this alone now (Inuyasha)
Cause I've failed and I'm ready to be shown how
He's told me the way and I'm trying to get there
And this life sentence that I'm serving
I admit that I'm every bit deserving
But the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair

Inuyasha glanced at Kagome and smiled at her and almost laughed when she blushed.

Cause I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity and (Everyone)
I've been locked inside that house all the while You hold the key
And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
And even though, there's no way in knowing where to go, promise I'm going because
I gotta get outta here
Cause I'm afraid that this complacency is something I can't shake
I gotta get outta here
And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, I'm begging You to be my escape.

Kagome started dancing to the song along with Sango and Ayame. Miroku and Koga saw and started to laugh.

I am a hostage to my own humanity (Inuyasha)
Self detained and forced to live in this mess I've made
And all I'm asking is for You to do what You can with me
But I can't ask You to give what You already gave

Inuyasha was moving around with the song. This was what he loved most about being a singer. All his fears and concerns fly out the window. He can be himself when he's up here. No one can stop him. No even his fears.

Cause I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity and
I've been locked inside that house all the while you hold the key
And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me
And even though, there's no way in knowing where to go, promise I'm going because
I've gotta get outta here (Everyone)
I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake
I've gotta get outta here
And I'm begging You, I'm begging You, I'm begging
You to be my escape.

I fought You for so long (Inuyasha)
I should have let you in
Oh how we regret those things we do (Miroku and Koga)
and all I was trying to do was save my own skin (Inuyasha)
But so were You

so were You

The crowd cheered. Inuyasha looked over at Kagome and she nodded. He smiled, now she understands, I'm glad. It was Koga's turn now. He and Inuyasha switched. As he got up to the microphone he looked over at Ayame and made eye contact. She smiled and he smiled back. Shippo hopped onto the stage and over to the keyboard. He had asked Shippo to help with this song. He struck up a tone and Koga started.

I gave my life away (Koga)
Now it's time to play
Gotta live by the choice I've made
This is what I choose
If I don't want to lose
Then I need to let You make my move

Cause You know better than I
I could ever and I don't want to try to
Ever do without You
You know more than I could
I could ever and if You weren't there for me
I'd go crazy

Kagome and Sango grinned at each other then at Ayame who was blushing.

"Awwww…." Kagome and Sango said together. Ayame smacked them both, but while grinning.

Ayame was speech less, Koga was so sweet! Koga swayed to the music, having so much fun.

Every face I see (Koga)
Takes a hold of me
And keeps me where I need to be
With a lot on my mind
Sometimes it makes me blind
And the vision gets hard to find

But you know better than I could ever
And I don't want to try to
Ever do without you
You know more than I could
I could ever and if you weren't there for me
I'd go crazy

I can't pretend that I don't need You (Everyone)
With all of this stuff in my life
I just don't know what to do
Every time I'm afraid of what's in front of me
You keep me from going crazy
Show's done but the tape keeps rollin'
Can't push stop cause my life is recording
All this pressure keeps on pressin'
You keep me from going crazy
I thank God for the life I lead (Koga)
I wouldn't trade it
Not for a minute
I don't want to think that I don't need
You with me
You are my Security
Now that I got it
Can't go without it
Cause I need You
Need You to keep me
From going crazy

Inuyasha could see that Koga was sincere about what he was singing. Inuyasha had noticed that Koga was having feelings for Kagome and that ticked him off a lot. He didn't know why but it just did. Now his feelings are changing from Kagome to Ayame. Inuyasha snorted, and good riddance too.

Crazy... (Koga)
You keep me from going crazy
Crazy...

The music faded and Koga sighed. It's all good, he thought. Now if only Kagome did that! Inuyasha probably knew what he was thinking cause he heard a growl from behind him. He turned and gave Inuyasha a smirk. Inuyasha glared at him and growled. Miroku got up from him place and traded places with Koga and he traded with Inuyasha who sat in Miroku's space. Miroku heard the music start.

And I'd give up forever to touch you (Miroku)
Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now
And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
Cause sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight
And I don't want the world to see me (Miroku and company)
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming (Miroku)
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything seems like the movies
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

And I don't want the world to see me (Everyone)
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

Koga and Inuyasha started a smooth beat along with Shippo. Their solo lasted for a while so Miroku took this time to embarrass Sango. As the music played he walked over and grabbed Sango's hand and pilled her on stage. She was blushing like crazy. A few girls in the crowed started to aw and that just made her even redder in the face. Once they got to the middle of the stage he pulled her into an embrace.

"Miroku?" For her response he started dancing with her. Her heart was beating rapidly and was sure that he could hear it. She glanced over his shoulder and saw Inuyasha and Koga smiling at them while playing. He twirled her around and leaned her down into a dip. As he pulled her up the solo was over and he started singing again while still dancing.

And I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am (Miroku)
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

The song ended and the lights went out. Sango was blushing like mad. Thank god for intermission! She looked over at Kagome and Ayame and saw them containing their giggles. She glared at them and was about to talk to Miroku when there was some pressure on her rear.

SMACK

"Pervert." Sango stalked away still red in the face. She walked over to Kagome and Ayame who were rolling on the floor laughing. "Oh shut up!"

"Sorry-sorry Sango. But that was so sweet and funny!" Kagome gasped out.

"We couldn't help it when you slapped him." Ayame said. Kagome looked behind Sango to see Miroku smiling like an idiot. That was so sweet! She then looked at Koga who was fiddling with his guitar. Finally she locked eyes with Inuyasha. They held their stare for a bit then both blushing turned away. Well all they had to do now was enjoy the concert with out all the screaming fans trying to at least get some sweat. EW! The boys struck up another number and the concert continued. After this they were going to Naraku's mansion and Kagome was having second thoughts about it. She sighed and tried to listen to the music. Inuyasha was singing again, and the others were in their rightful places. This was going to be a long week.

A/N: Ok I'm done and let me stress again that I do not own any of the songs sung in this chapter. They belong to their rightful owners and I just borrowed them.

Sango: Are you going to work on the other one now?

Me: Ummm…nope. I'm going to have a little R time.

Ayame: R time?

Me: Reading time duh! Don't be so perverted.

Ayame and Sango sweat dropped. Me: Review please!
