It was Thursday and Kagome was walking to her car. Since school ended and everyone was busy after school Kagome decided she would spend a few hours at the hide out. She miserably missed the thrill and fun of working out a sweat or sitting in a strategy room and workout what would or would not work.
Just as she reached her car she heard her name being called out. Turning around, Kagome saw Ayame running up to her. She stood and waited for Ayame to reach her. "What the hell Kags! You're my ride home! Were you planning on leaving me here?" asked Ayame just a little pissed.
"Oh shit sorry I totally forgot. Well I was planning on going to the hideout right now, you wanna go?" Ayame considered it then smiled.
"Sure, I haven't been in a while, it'll be nice to work out a bit," said Ayame.
"Yeah I know what you mean. I've been working on the project for choir for the past three days and I need a break," said Kagome as she threw her bag into the back seat and got into her car. Ayame did the same as Kagome and then they drove off.
-
"Okay you guys, meet me at my house. We need to practice for tomorrow night" said Inuyasha as he got into his car.
"Yeah," said Miroku as he got into his car. Sai just nodded as he got into his car.
Inuyasha got to his house first. When he walked in he found his older brother walk down the stairs. Sesshomaru walked all the way down and looked at his brother with a questioning look. "What?" he asked. Inuyasha shook his head.
"Nothing, but since you don't like Miroku I have to warn you that he'll be here any minute. So if you want to retreat then now is the time" he said with a laugh. Sesshomaru grimaced; his stoic personality didn't mesh well with Miroku's overly flamboyant way of speech.
"Just keep him away from me. I have an important proposal to write," said Sesshomaru.
"Yeah, we'll be in the studio anyways, so we'll be out of the way," said Inuyasha as he walked into the kitchen. He decided that he wanted to get some snacks made for the rehearsal since they were going to be in the studio for a couple of hours. As he was deciding on what to take into the studio Totosai, their head chef, walked out of the pantry and eyed Inuyasha.
"Do you need something, young master?" he asked.
"Oh Totosai, you startled me, and since you asked do you think you could make a platter of snacks? We have our big performance tomorrow so we need to practice," said Inuyasha.
"Sure thing I'll get right on it, would you like me to send it down to the studio?" asked Totosai.
"Yea thank you" said Inuyasha. He walked out of the kitchen and as he got near the entrance lobby he saw Miroku and Sai standing there waiting.
"Hey man, I'm starved. Do you think we could get a bite to eat before we start practice?" asked Miroku.
"Already got Totosai to make us some food, he'll send it down to the studio when it's done so let's get started," said Inuyasha.
"Yeah let's get this thing started," said Sai. The three guys marched down to the studio to get their night started.

Kagome and Ayame walked into the hideout and were greeted by everyone that they passed. After brief conversations with everyone they went to the changing room. Kagome and Ayame always kept a change of clothes just in case for emergency occasions. And they were glad they thought of it, because this was definitely that occasion. Once they changed they went to the sparing ring, which was deserted almost all the time.
Kagome was wearing black shorts and a green tank-top while Ayame wore grey sweat pants and a tight purple top that cut off right under her breasts.
They were both ready to blow off some steam. They got in their stances and then began. Kagome threw the first punch which Ayame dodged and countered with a jab. It hit true right in the center of Kagome's stomach and caused her to shrink back. Ayame grinned but was taken by shock as Kagome attacked with a sequence of intricate moves.
"You know that Kikyo bitch is really starting to piss me off," said Kagome with a grunt as she swung again.
"Well gee, if you're thinking about her then you have an unfair advantage!" said Ayame as she blocked the punch and countered with one of her own.
"It's pissing enough that she always glares at me, but now she tries to out sing me in class! I just want to punch her square in the jaw," said Kagome as she attempted just that.
Ayame ducked and then tripped Kagome at the legs causing her to fall on her back. "Well why don't you just punch her? I'll even hold her down," said Ayame as she aimed a punch at Kagome's face. She rolled over and sprang back on her feet.
"Yeah right. If I do anything like that grandma will be pissed and that's not something I want to see," said Kagome as she pushed forward with a kick, knocking Ayame off balance and causing her to fall on her butt.
"I agree," said Ayame as she sat there laughing.
"You finished?" asked Kagome as she stood there just a little out of breath.
"Kinda; seems like we attracted an audience," said Ayame, as she saw the other assassins that had gathered around. Kagome spotted Hakudoshi standing with a grin on his face.
"Hey Haku, you training today?" asked Kagome.
"Of course I am but it's good to see you haven't lost your touch," said Hakudoshi as he walked up to the ring.
"Well of course I didn't lose my touch," said Kagome
"Thanks for the hand up Kags!" said Ayame as she walked up to them.
"Sorry Yame" said Kagome, half heartedly.
"Kagome? What are you doing here?" The three looked towards the direction of the voice and saw Naraku standing there.
"Gramps! Are you still training today?" asked Kagome.
"Of course Haku is just on his water break, which you should go get Haku," said Naraku.
"Yeah see ya around Kags!" said Hakudoshi as he ran off.
"Kagome don't you have that project to do? What are you doing here?" asked Naraku.
"Gramps I've been working on it for the past three days, can't I take a break?" asked Kagome.
"I guess, do you two want to help with the junior recruits then? I need some help with them," said Naraku.
"Of course! Yame you up for it?" asked Kagome.
"Of course I am!" said Ayame. So the two girls jumped off the ring and followed Naraku.
-
"Finally finished!" exclaimed Miroku as he sprawled on the couch that was in the studio.
"Yeah, but that was probably our best performance so far," said Inuyasha with a grin as he drank some water from his water bottle.
"We're so gonna rock tomorrow," said Sai with a grin. They had just finished their practice. It was almost ten o'clock and they were exhausted.
"So how do you think Kagome and Yame are gonna get into the club?" asked Inuyasha.
"They're coming?" asked Miroku.
"Yup, that's what they said on Saturday," said Sai.
"But they can't get in since they're underage," said Miroku.
"That's exactly why I said 'how do you think Kagome and Yame are gonna get into the club' weren't you listening?" asked Inuyasha as he tossed a bottle of water at him. He caught it and to a swig of it.
"Well it'll be fun to watch them wheedle the bouncer," said Sai.
"Yeah all I know is Sango is coming in with us, I don't want her being ogled by all the guys," said Miroku.
"Yeah but those girls are head strong, and knowing Sango she'll probably want to come in with the girls as well," said Inuyasha.
"Not if I have something to say about it," said Miroku. Because both of them found it hilarious they broke out in laughter. Miroku just glared and drank some more of his water.

Kikyo was in the main parlour of her house, where her father was sitting down reading over some papers. "Daddy, please? You can get me in, I really want to go," said Kikyo.
"Kiki, you're too young to go to a club, even your friend is performing there, it's not a good place for you to be," said her father.
"But Daddy!" she whined.
"Kiki I don't think it'll be safe," said her father as he looked at her patiently.
"That's not fair everyone else is going why can't I go too? It'll be a big group of people, so it won't be too bad, I promise," said Kikyo.
"Okay I'll let you go under one circumstance," said her father.
"Sure anything!" she beamed happy.
"You have to go with someone of age," was all he said.
"What! No I don't want a chaperone. I'll be the laughing stock of the school!" said Kikyo.
"Well then you can't go," said her father.
"Fine then I'm going to stay at Yura's house tomorrow," said Kikyo.
"That's fine," said her father as he went over his paper again. Kikyo grinned. The old man was senile, to actually think that his daughter wouldn't pass up the opportunity to ruin the relationship that she saw blooming between her Inuyasha and that girl Kagome. She went to her room and called Yura to tell her a plan to get into the club.
-
The next day after school Inuyasha, Miroku and Sai went to Inuyasha's house to get ready for the gig, while the girls went to Kagome's house. When they got there Sango was awed by the house. "Damn Kags your house is amazing," said Sango.
"Yeah it is, isn't it?" she said with a grin, which Sango reacted by smacking her lightly.
"Oh come on if we want to get into the club we got to get dolled up," said Ayame as she dragged both girls into the house. Kagura was in the living room and when they passed it Kagome squeaked out a hello and then was dragged up into Kagome's room.
When they were in her room they sat on the bed. "So what did you two bring?" asked Kagome as she waited for them to pull out their outfits for the night. Ayame pulled out an olive green tube dress. It clung to her like a second skin and gave a generous show of her cleavage. It stopped mid-thigh, which showed off her legs. She had big gold hoop earrings and a matching braided belt.
Sango pulled out a few articles of clothing. A short black skirt layered with silk and mesh. She had matching black pumps and an off the shoulder top in an almost see through material. The color of it was a soft rose pink, and she had a matching bra underneath that was visible against the color of the shirt.
Kagome grinned at the outfit choices and couldn't wait to show them what she was wearing. "Okay so what are you wearing?" asked Ayame.
"Hold on, let me go get it," said Kagome. So she went to her closet and looked through the clothes that she bought. She remembered an outfit that she fell in love with but was not sure where to wear it so she decided she would wear it for the gig.
She pulled out a pair of faded dark olive green coloured shorts. It had a sequence design on the back pockets. She had a shirt that was threaded like fishnet, so her midriff was showing under the thin layer of cloth. And to top off the outfit she had a matching cardigan type shirt that was buttoned at the front and had a hood. It was cut like a t-shirt and when left open you could see her bra, which she had bought a flashy one for the outfit. She had matching olive green leg warmers and she wore vans in black with green designs.
"Okay even though it's supposed to look casual, it looks hot! Oh I can't wait to see you wear it!" said Ayame.
"Me too, how about we get changed and then we can work on the face and hair?" asked Kagome.
"Sounds like a plan." The girls got ready to perfection but it took them almost three hours. When they were all done they sat down on the bed and just talked they still had like two hours till they said they'd go there.
"Do you think Kouga is still going to go tonight? He said he would," said Ayame.
"Oh yeah I nearly forgot, he hasn't said a thing about it since Saturday," said Kagome.
"Is Kouga the hot guy that came to our school that day?" asked Sango recalling the name.
"Yup that's Kouga," said Kagome with a grin.
"Let's call him and ask, it'll be nice to have some muscle with us," said Ayame. So they called him and asked. He said he'd be there, that he talked to Sai the other day and would be helping with the equipment, and Ginta and Hakaku were going with him. So once the girls had everything they needed they could make their way over to the club.
"You know it sucks that the guys couldn't come with us. It would have been so much easier to get in if we had Kouga with us! Since he's over age and all," said Ayame.
"Oh come on Yame, don't you have any faith in us?" asked Kagome.
"Yeah of course I do, it's just that I really don't want to miss Sai's performance and we get some prick of a bouncer we probably won't be able to get in."
"Man is she always a downer?" asked Sango.
"Yeah most times," said Kagome with a smirk.
"Hey!" Ayame threw a pillow at them before she got up.
"You do know that my boy friend is playing there too! And I want to be there too. So we just have to persuade the bouncer, now come on ladies!" said Sango.
"Yeah now that's what I like to hear," said Kagome as she walked along side Sango with Ayame trailing behind them.
-
Inuyasha and the guys were ready to go and were just waiting for Kouga to make it to Inuyasha's house. Inuyasha was dressed in a pair of black jeans a simple white buttoned up shirt that was un-tucked, with a black vest on top of that and a maroon tie, tied loosely around his neck. Sai and Miroku were also wearing the same thing, except that Miroku had already took off his tie and tied it around his forehead for the dramatic drummer look, and Sai wasn't wearing his tie and left the first few buttons on his shirt unbuttoned.
"When the hell are these guys getting here?" asked Inuyasha as he looked at his watch impatiently.
"They'll be here, he just called a minute ago say they'll be here in five. So just chill out," said Sai.
"Yeah just a little angsty, thinking about the girls."
"You and me both buddy, those girls are going to corrupt my Sango!" Miroku whined.
"Hey watch it, Roku. That's my girl you're talking about!" said Sai.
"Yeah, yeah. Oh I think they're here!" said Miroku as he looked out the window. Kouga pulled up in a stylish tuck. It was huge and he gave them a smirk. It was black from front to back, and chrome decorated it. The windows were tinted. "And dude did he bring an awesome ride.
"Man it looks awesome, now let's load it up so that we can go!" said Sai. Inuyasha watched the car and smirked, the excitement was starting to build now.
"Hey guys, you like the ride?" asked Kouga.
"Hell yeah! Is this yours?" asked Miroku.
"Yeah, I don't use it much, but I thought today would be the perfect occasion."
"Now where is the equipment?" asked Ginta from the passenger seat.
"Just follow me," said Miroku, and so the guys packed up and headed to the club. They parked in the back and was let in by security. Kouga was impressed at the scene in the back. He saw many well known local artists and was shocked to know that Inuyasha's group was able to get a spot on their entertainment list. He was taking everything in, when he noticed someone. He zeroed his eyes on the person and was shocked to see that he was working there. He tapped Hakaku and Ginta's shoulder and pointed to the man that he had spotted.
"What is he doing here? And working here too?" asked Ginta in a hushed whisper.
"I don't know but we'll find out soon enough," said Kouga as he was about to walk up to the man.
"No man we gotta help Inuyasha and the guys get ready," said Hakaku.
"Okay fine, but I'll get my time to talk to him," said Kouga. So the guys went back to helping the guys set up. But Kouga kept an eye on the man he had spotted.
-
Kagome found parking and then got out of her car. It was quite easy for her to leave the house that she was proud of herself of getting past Kagura with no problem. When she just stood on the street with a smile, Ayame smacked her over the head. Kagome came back down to reality and glared at her so called best friend.
"What the hell are you smiling about?" asked Ayame.
"Oh I was just admiring my escape from Grandma! You know how hard it is to get past her sometimes," said Kagome.
"Yeah tell me about it! Remember that one time you were out all night and got in so much trouble and because you told her you were out with me all night, I had an interrogation before I could come over again," said Ayame.
"Hey it was worth it, and thanks for being such a pal, Kyoshi was very hot and that date was the highlight of my year," said Kagome with a content smile.
"Who is Kyoshi?" asked Sango, really lost on their talk but enjoyed it anyway.
"Kyoshi was her first date, he works with her grand father, and is very hot!" said Ayame with a dreamy sigh.
"Yeah, it was the perfect date too! But now he's like seriously into this girl named Ryoko. She's like some up and coming model and is just as hot as he is," said Kagome as she started walking. Sango and Ayame followed her.
"Well sounds like I have to meet him," said Sango with a grin.
"What about Miroku?" asked Kagome.
"Hey I have a right to appreciate a hot man. I know that Roku does the same," said Sango.
"Amen to that!" said both girls as they walked arms all linked towards the club. When they got to the entrance they saw that the line was long, so long that it disappeared around the corner of the block.
"Well damn how the hell are we going to get in now?" asked Ayame.
"Well I guess we get in line," said Kagome as she scanned the line and went back up to the bouncer. She almost missed him but she could recognize that gorgeous blonde anywhere. "Yame look!" said Kagome as she pointed to the bouncer. Ayame followed her gaze and gasped.
"What the hell! He's the bouncer?! Well damn now I'm excited!" said Ayame as she started to walk forward.
"What just happened?" asked Sango.
"Well you get to meet Kyoshi, is what just happened," said Kagome as she pulled Sango after Ayame.
"Wait, what? Kyoshi? That extremely hot guy there is Kyoshi?" asked Sango as she pointed to the bouncer.
"Yup that's him, but I don't get why he's working here when he's working with my gramps," said Kagome. They walked over quickly and Ayame jumped onto his back. He was like their older brother after Kagome and him decided that they wouldn't go anywhere in a romantic relationship. Kyoshi had a glare and was about to shove the person who jumped on him when he heard the soft giggle.
"Aya?" he asked as he looked at her from behind his shoulder.
"Hey Kyo! What are you doing at a place like this?" asked Ayame as she got off from him. He looked her up and down and smiled.
"I should be asking you the same thing. Aren't you a little young to be at a club?" he asked with a smirk. Then he saw Kagome walking up to them too. When he saw her his smile warmed.
"Mei, you're here too?" asked Kyoshi.
"Yup, but what are you doing working here? Aren't you supposed to be with Gramps?" asked Kagome.
"Well uh, I'm not sure if I'm allowed to tell you this, but I am working right now," said Kyoshi.
"Yeah I see that but what about Gramps," said Kagome.
"I am working for him, now what the hell are you two—" he spotted the other girl behind Kagome and had to appreciate her beauty. "Sorry I didn't see you back there, the names Kyoshi, and you are?" asked Kyoshi as he held out his hand to Sango.
"Sango, it's nice to meet you," said Sango as she took his hand. She gave him a smirk. "You guys were right he is hot."
"Well thanks for the compliment you're not so bad yourself," said Kyoshi as he held her hand for a second longer.
"Hey what the hell is going on! We want to get in!"
"Keep it moving buddy! We're waiting here!"
"Now look what you've done! Mei you guys shouldn't be here, now go home." Kyoshi turned away from them and continued on his task of checking ID's. Kagome pouted as she tapped Kyoshi's shoulder.
"Kyo can you let us in please?" asked Kagome.
"Mei if I did that you know how much shit I'd get in from Naraku?" asked Kyoshi.
"What he doesn't know won't hurt him, come on we came all dressed and everything for him," said Kagome as she motioned for their outfits.
"Yeah and I see that. You guys are dressed for the club, but I'm not letting you in," said Kyoshi.
"Please Kyo, pretty please with a cherry on top!" said Ayame. He smirked and bonked her on the head.
"Do you know what no means?"
"Yes, but you should know we won't take it! Come on we have to go in!" said Kagome.
"Why is that?" he asked with an amused smile as he quickly scanned over the girls ID. He didn't even glance at the girl before letting her in. She smiled and quickly walked into the club pulling her friend along with her. Kyoshi was getting distracted by the three girls and let out a sigh.
"Please Kyoshi-kun, my boyfriend is performing tonight and I have to be there when he goes on stage."
"Yeah and Sai is also performing! If I miss it then I'll tell Ryoko that you were being mean to us again!" said Ayame.
"Come on Kyo if you don't let us in then I'll just have to do what I planned to go all along!" said Kagome.
"Oh and what would that be?" asked Kyoshi.
"Just this," said Kagome as she pushed forward and grabbed his shirt pulling him down to her mouth. She hovered over his mouth, and he actually looked a little dazed. She smirked before flicking him on the nose and then kissing him quickly on the lips. Then she grabbed her friends and ran into the club laughing.
"Thanks Kyo-onii-chan! I love you!" she said as she ran backwards. He was smirking as he watched her run.
"Should I go get them?" asked the other bouncer who had come to see what had happened.
"Naw just let them be," said Kyoshi.
"But boss said never to let minors in the club," said the other bouncer.
"Jiro that was bosses grand-daughter, so I think it'll be fine," said Kyoshi as he patted Jiro's shoulder as he looked into the club where Kagome had ran into, and smiled as he thought about his kid sister.
-
"Kags I can't believe you kissed him! That was your first kiss!" said Ayame.
"Well actually that wasn't," said Kagome as she laughed. But that caused Ayame to stop.
"What do you mean that it wasn't?" she asked with her arms crossed.
"That wasn't my first kiss," said Kagome.
"Really? Well then who was?" asked Sango. Kagome looked between her friends. She decided it was safe enough to tell them since they were her friends.
"Well you can't go telling the guys since I'll just get in trouble for telling, but it was Inuyasha!" she said.
"WHAT!?" asked both girls in unison.
"Yeah we kissed, twice actually, well the first one barely counted, but yeah," said Kagome.
"When the hell did this happen?" asked Ayame.
"Well on Saturday, when I went and showed him the library one thing lead to another and he kissed me but just as our lips met Kaede came in and kinda ruined the moment," said Kagome.
"And the second time?" asked Sango.
"Monday Morning, I went to school early and just hung out at the tree. The next thing I know Inuyasha's there. He starts telling me about how he kept thinking about holding me and mushy stuff like that, and then I went into his arms and he kissed me breathless. Oh it was so perfect," said Kagome with a sigh thinking about him.
"So what does this mean? Are you guys together?" asked Ayame.
"Nope," she said with a smile.
"And you're happy about it?" asked Sango.
"I am perfectly fine with it," said Kagome.
"Well then damn, if I had your patience Kags I'd have gone insane, but hey if that's how you want it then good on you. But let's go enjoy the club before the guys perform!" said Ayame as she lead them to the bar.
-
"Did you hear that!? She kissed him! How dare she soil my pure Inuyasha! Oh she is going to pay when I get a hold of her!" said Kikyo, as she complained to Yura.
"I can't believe that slut! Don't worry Kiki you'll get even with her," said Yura.
"Yeah I can't wait to."
"Well forget about them for now, let's go enjoy the club, we do have to thank them for one thing though. If they weren't distracting that hot bouncer we never would have gotten in," said Yura.
"Yeah, but better for us I guess, it's their own fault that they have to witness what I have planned," said Kikyo.
"Yeah but we should ignore them until it's time for the plan," said Yura.
"I agree, now let's go enjoy ourselves until then," said Kikyo as she walked onto the dance floor and had some fun.
-
"Hey do you think that they're here now?" asked Inuyasha as he looked into the crowd of people from the back.
"Yeah I'm sure they are," said Sai.
"Hey where did Kouga and the guys go?" asked Miroku, not even relative to the topic.
"They said they wanted to get some drinks," said Inuyasha half heartedly. He wanted to know if they were there or not. But he was pulled back when he heard the manager of the club come and club call for all the entertainers.
"Okay all performers, please be ready, because we are going to start the entertainment in ten minutes. And here is the roster for all of you. I will call you only once, so if you're not ready we'll just skip you. So don't lag." The guy posted the paper on the wall and walked out the curtains to introduce the first group. Inuyasha went to the paper and found their name on the list. They were third on the list. His nerves were starting to rise but excitement was still there.
"Well guys let's get ready for it, we'll be the hit of the night! Right?!" asked Miroku.
"Hell yeah!" said both Inuyasha and Sai as they gave each other a group high five.
-
"Guys come on there's some one on the stage it looks like the live performers are going to start!" said Sango as she pulled Kagome and Ayame away from the bar. "Come on we have to find a table."
"Okay we're coming stop pushing!" said Kagome as she walked beside Sango. They were able to find a table right at the border of the dance floor and grabbed it. Just as they sat down three guys took seats at the same table.
"Hey we're sitting here!" Ayame yelled but when she looked into the guy's face she saw that it was Kouga. "Kouga you're here!" said Ayame as she gave him a hug.
"Yeah, glad to see you got in with out a problem," said Kouga. He glanced over the other girls and smirked.
"You guys look nice," he said.
"Thanks, you don't look bad yourself," said Kagome as she gave him the once over. He just wore dark washed jeans and a black shirt. His suede jacket was in his arms, being that it was too hot to be wearing it at the club.
"So are the guys up first?" asked Sango.
"I'm not sure, I never asked."
"Well then we'll just have to wait patiently until they're up!" said Kagome.
"But I'm not a patient person!" whined Ayame.
"Tell me about it," said both Kagome and Kouga at the same time causing the rest of the group to laugh while Ayame grumbled.
-
"Look at them thinking they're so cool. Just cause they have that hot guy sitting with them! Argh! I hate that Higurashi!" Kikyo seethed.
"Just calm down Kiki you'll get the last laugh at the end of the night!" said Yura with an evil laugh. At the thought Kikyo let out a laugh. She drank her drink as the first group went up on stage. It was a single girl who looked very familiar. When Kikyo realized that it was the Utada Hikaru, the popular and famous Japanese singer, she was excited. She watched intently and when the song was over the whole club fell into applause.
Then the next group came on, and Kikyo let out a sigh they announced someone other than Inuyasha's group. She still listened patiently since they were a group that had just started to break through on the charts. She was in awe to know that there were so many famous entertainers here.
-
Inuyasha was amazed at everything he saw. He didn't notice the other performers until after his emotions were finally balanced. He saw Utada Hikaru and was in awe. He loved her and was shocked to know that he was performing alongside her. When she saw him staring she smiled his way and walked over.
"Oh my god, Yash she's coming up to you," said Miroku.
"Yeah I know! Just shut up Roku!" said Inuyasha as he tried to get his breathing under control.
"Hey don't be so mean!" said Miroku.
"Hi there. You guys are Youkai right?" asked Hikaru.
"Yeah that's us," said Sai being totally unfazed by her. She smiled at him.
"Well it's nice to meet you, I've heard some good things about you from the boss," said Hikaru.
"Really?" asked Sai.
"Yeah, said you guys had potential," said Hikaru.
"thanks, especially since it's coming from you," said Sai.
"Yeah no problem, it's nice to meet you all," said Hikaru as she looked over at Inuyasha and Miroku.
"Sorry about my friends, I guess they're kinda star struck," he said giving her a charming smile.
"Oh it's fine. You guys should get ready the next act are you guys and the group is almost finished."
"Thanks!" he said once more before turning to his group." Come guys we're going on in a few minutes." That snapped Inuyasha and Miroku out of their daze and got them ready.
-
"Thank you! Everyone give another round of applause for Boom Boom Satellites! Weren't they amazing?" asked the Manager as he took to the stage again.
The crowd hooted and hollered for the duo and the men in the group grinned into the crowd. Girls fawned over them as they gave out their trademark peace signs before they retuned back stage.
"Well next up is a new group. In fact they've just been discovered by us and has been exposed to the public yet. So this is their first début, and they're called Youkai! Now give it up, trust me they won't disappoint otherwise they wouldn't be apart of our show!"
The crowd was a little iffy about a new group because they were always used to seeing professionals on the stage but when the group came out all hesitations were lost. Everyone started to scream as they saw the trio. They all eluded confidence and a special plus for the girls, they were all extremely hot. The crowd broke into applause.
Inuyasha gave the crowd a smirk as he looked around the crowd. When he heard a familiar voice he zeroed in on it and saw Kagome standing up and cheering. She let out a wolf whistle and that caused his grin to widen.
"Hey there! We're Youkai and since this is our first performance please go easy on us! I'm Inuyasha, electric guitar and Lead vocal," Inuyasha started the intro and then turned to Sai.
Sai took his cue and continued on. "The name's Sai, Base guitar and back up vocals! Nice to meet you." He gave the crowd a charming smile. All the girls sighed dreamily. And Sai heard a growl and saw Ayame eyeing all the girls; he smiled and added one more thing before he turned to Miroku. "Ayame smile." She blushed as she looked at him.
Then Miroku cleared his throat. "And I'm Miroku, the crazy drummer! Don't underestimate the underdogs. Now if you are all ready let's get this thing started!" said Miroku. Inuyasha nodded as he looked into the crowd.
"Okay our first song that we'll be performing is an original, and it's called…
'Ready,
Set, Go!'
We
were running though the town
Our senses had been drowned
A
place we hadn't been before
We learned to live and then
Our
freedom came to an end
We have to break down this wall
Too
young to live a lie
Look into my eyes
Ready,
set, go it's time to run
The sky is changing we are one
Together
we can make it while the world is crashing down
Don't you turn
around
We are looking back again
Our loneliness and
pain
Never been so wide awake
Breathe slowly in and
out
somewhere beyond the clouds
I can see the morning break
Too
young to live a lie
Look into my eyes
Ready, set, go it's
time to run
The sky is changing we are one
Together we can make
it while the world is crashing down
Don't you turn around
Leave
it all behind you now
The final wall is breaking down
We are
all it's all about
Nothing can stop us now
I promise you
right know
I never let you down
Ready, set, go it's time to
run
The sky is changing we are one
Together we can make it
while the world is crashing down
Don't turn around
Ready,
set, go it's time to run
The sky is changing we are one
Together
we can make it while the world is crashing down
Don't you turn
around
Don't you turn around
Don't you turn around"
When Inuyasha finished off the last note, the crowd erupted into cheer. Many got up and gave them a standing ovation. The group smirked as they looked at the table of their friends and significant others and smiled. Ayame and Sango blew them kisses while Kagome let out another whistle. They all grinned as they waited for the crowd to lull themselves down.
"Okay since you guys liked that song so much how about the next one. This is a song dedicated to all the ladies out there! Now kick back and enjoy! It's called…
'I'd Do Anything'"
Inuyasha started up the beat and Miroku and Sai followed along getting into the feel of the music they lost themselves.
"Another
day is going by
I'm thinking about you all the time
But you're
out there
And I'm here waiting
And I wrote this letter in
my head
Cuz so many things were left unsaid
But now you're
gone
And I can't think straight
This could be the one last
chance
To make you understand…Yeah
I'd do anything
Just
to hold you in my arms
To try to make you laugh
Cuz somehow I
can't put you in the past
I'd do anything
Just to fall asleep
with you
Will you remember me?
Cuz I know
I won't forget
you
Together we broke all the rules
Dreaming of dropping
out of school
And leave this place
To never come back
So
now maybe after all these years
If you miss me have no fear
I'll
be here
I'll be waiting
This could be the one last chance
to make you understand
And I just can't let you leave me once
again
Yeah
I'd
do anything
Just to hold you in my arms
To try to make you
laugh
Cuz somehow I can't put you in the past
I'd do anything
Just to fall asleep with you
Will you remember me?
Cuz I
know
I won't forget you"
Miroku gave a rapid tempo while Inuyasha and Sai strummed their guitars slowly.
"I
close my eyes
And all I see is you
I close my eyes
I try to
sleep
I can't forget you
Nanana (Nanana)
And I'd do anything
for you
Nanana (Nanana)"
They picked up the music beat once more, giving it a fast paced rhythm.
"I'd
do anything
Just to hold you in my arms
To try to make you
laugh
Cuz somehow I can't put you in the past
I'd do anything
Just to fall asleep with you
Will you remember me?
Cuz I
know
I won't forget you
I'd do anything
To fall asleep
with you
I'd do anything
There's nothing I won't do
I'd do
anything
To fall asleep with you
I'd do anything
Cuz I know
I won't forget you"
By now the group was a little out of breath but they were amazed to see that people had gone onto the dance floor while they performed. Wow, was all they could think. It was an amazing feat and they were so proud that they were able to get people to dance.
"Thanks!" was all Inuyasha could say as the crowd cheered even louder than the first time. "And before we leave I'd like to say that this song was for the special people in our lives. You girls are the inspiration to our music," said Inuyasha as saluted the table right in front of them.
When he said those words Kikyo decided it was time to enact her plan. She let out a lousy excuse of a surprised squeal as she got up from her table. The attention that landed on her was exactly what she wanted. She ran up to the stage like an excited girlfriend—exactly what she wanted everyone to think.
"Oh Inu you're too sweet!" she said as she ran into his arms and before Inuyasha could push her away Kikyo pulled him down and kissed him rather passionately. The crowd 'awed' at the show of affection and some even let out a sad sigh. The only thing that Inuyasha heard though was a couple growls and a steaming Kagome who was cussing profusely. He pushed her off of him and glared at her. Before he could rage on her the manager came back out.
"Well wasn't that sweet, now how about another applause?" the crowd cheered and he smiled. They would definitely be calling them back for a weekly spot. "Now if you four could go back stage while we get the next group up here?" Inuyasha nodded numbly. He followed Sai and Miroku back and when Kikyo followed them back he gave her a deadly glare.
"You're not apart of the group, Hiromi. And you better to watch your back when you go to your table. There's an evil aura out there if you know what I mean," he said flashing her his fang before fading into the curtains.
"Dude what the hell was that all about?" asked Miroku.
"Hell if I know. That was just nasty! Man pass me some water," said Inuyasha in disgust.
"Yeah hold on," said Sai as he walked to the refreshments table and grabbed a bottle of water.
"Thanks," said Inuyasha as he took two generous gulps before he tossed the bottle at the guys. "Now let's go deal with her before Kagome does something rash."
"I'd rather let her than stop her," said Sai with a smirk.
"Yeah but I don't want to have to bail her out what would her Grand dad think then?" asked Inuyasha with a grin as he was about to walk out to the club when the manager stopped them, as he came through the curtains.
"Hey there boys, how about we talk some business?" he asked giving them a smirk. Inuyasha wanted to go check on Kagome but knew she could take care of her self for a little while.
"Sure, what did you have in mind?" asked Inuyasha as he was lead into the back office the rest of his group.

"What the fuck does she think she's doing?" asked Kagome as she fumed. She wanted to go and beat the crap out of Kikyo.
"Kag's calm down, seriously she's not even worth it!" said Ayame even though she wanted to go there just as bad and kick her ass. Both girls were steaming and even though they weren't allowed to leave the table because of the guys, their wish to beat her up was being granted. Kikyo swayed over to the table and smirked at them.
"Oh Higurashi! Hi I didn't even know you guys were here," said Kikyo trying to play the clueless person that she was.
"Oh yeah sure you didn't, you better watch where you step Hiromi," said Kagome as she glared.
"What are you talking about," she said in thought then smiled again. "Oh you mean the kiss? Wasn't it sweet of my Inu of dedicating that to me?" asked Kikyo.
"What the hell is wrong with this girl?" Ginta asked Hakaku. Hakaku just shrugged his shoulder and he watched the spat.
"Are you delirious?" asked Kouga as he glared at the sleezy looking girl.
"Excuse me?" asked Kikyo as she stared at the gorgeous wolf demon.
"I asked are you delirious. Are you deaf too, and maybe blind as well," said Kouga with an uninterested tone.
"Uh I wasn't really talking to you cutie so you should just stay out of things that don't concern you," said Kikyo with a smile.
"Listen, you must be stupid or you wouldn't be picking a fight with Kags. And if you couldn't see it for yourself, let me tell you that Inuyasha was talking about these three girls not you and you should take your own advice and stay out of things that don't concern you. And I'd say Inuyasha and Kagome are no concern to you," said Kouga.
Kikyo's eyes flashed with anger and she zeroed in on Kagome. "You should learn to keep you Dog's on their leash Higurashi."
"Don't you dare talk about Kouga you bitch, if you want to go with me let's do it, right here right now!" said Kagome.
"You're not even worth my time," said Kikyo as swirled the contents of her drink. She was thinking of what she should do next, and then smiled.
"Oh really well then I'll make it worth your time," said Kagome as she got up and grabbed Kikyo's top and pulled her closer. Kikyo gave her a dry look and lifted her drink and poured it slowly on top of Kagome's head. Kagome stood shocked for a second before she snapped back. "Oh that was a big mistake, Hiromi. You should have listened to Kouga earlier now you're mine," said Kagome with an intent to kill in her eyes.
Kikyo actually looked scared as she tried to step back but Kagome held onto her. "Too bad Hiromi you're mine" she snarled as she retracted back and punched the girl straight on the cheek.
Kikyo recoiled and fell to the ground, holding a hand up to her cheek. Her head was spinning and she stared up at Kagome in fear, like a dog looks at an abusive master. Kagome was about to go in for another hit when she was held back by the twins. Kouga looked at Kikyo and then at her cowering friend standing behind her.
"You should take your friend and get out of here before we let her loose," said Kouga.
"Kiki, let's go before they let her go," said Yura as she grabbed Kikyo's arm and high tailed it out of the club. Kagome was still seething with anger and wanted to fight still.
"What the hell, why the hell did you hold me back?" asked Kagome as she glared at the guys.
"Because we didn't want you to kill anyone tonight," said Kouga as he flicked her on the forehead.
"I don't care she deserved it. She fucking poured alcohol on me, and this was a new outfit!"
"Mei, what the hell happened to you?" asked a male voice. The group looked back. Kouga stared at him for a second before talking.
"Kyo you're here too?" asked Kouga.
"Yeah why, is there a problem?" he asked.
"No not a problem, but can I talk to you for a second?" asked Kouga.
"Sure in a sec, first what happened to Kagome?" he asked in a serious tone.
"Well this bitch poured her drink all over me, just wait till I get to school I'm gonna finish what she couldn't finish," said Kagome.
"Ouch, I feel bad for that girl. Kagome has a mean left hook," Kyoshi said with a laugh.
"Yeah and it landed square on Kikyo's jaw," said Ayame with a grin.
"No kidding?" asked Kyoshi.
"No kidding." Ayame beamed back at Kyoshi and he grinned at Kagome which eased her mood a little.
"Okay Kyo can we talk now?" asked Kouga.
"Yeah, sure. Let's go to the back," said Kyoshi as he led Kouga. As Kouga went to the back with Kyoshi, Inuyasha, Miroku and Sai walked into the club. They were all smiling broadly. They were offered a weekly spot at the club every Friday night. And of course they took willingly.
Their smiled faded though when they saw Kagome drenched in alcohol. "What the hell happened here?" asked Inuyasha, extremely furious.
"Hiromi was here, Yash," said Sai.
"Yeah I figured as much. Kagome are you okay?" asked Inuyasha as he went right to her side.
"Yeah I'm fine. This won't stop me but I smell and I want to kill her." He grinned at that. She wasn't so fussy like other girls would be if they had a drink spilled on her.
"Do you want to change then?" asked Inuyasha.
"Well it would be nice but I don't have a change of clothes," said Kagome.
"Well why don't you just wear your bra?" asked Ayame.
"Yame are you crazy?" asked Kagome.
"What it's a flashy one and half the people here are half naked. And besides you can pull it off no problem," said Ayame with a smile. She seemed iffy but then decided it wouldn't be too much of a problem.
"Hey Inuyasha could you come with me for a second?" asked Kagome.
"Yeah sure." He was dazed again. The conversation that Kagome and Ayame had was a little arousing. Kagome in a bra and shorts. It already made him water with delight. Kagome took him to the washroom. He waited outside while she took off her shirt. Then he heard the tap go off. When the door opened Kagome stood in front of him, her hair was drenched and wavy, opposed to the straight that it was when she first got there. Her stomach had some water on it from the dripping hair, and Inuyasha couldn't help but appreciate her beauty.
"So how do I look?" asked Kagome as she looked down at her feet.
"You look amazing, Kagome," he said as he grabbed her chin and lifted her gaze to his eyes. He bent forward and kissed her lightly. "That was so much better." He grinned when she smiled back at him.
"Come on then! You were amazing too," said Kagome as she took his hand in hers and walked over to the table dumped her clothes before hitting the dance floor. The rest of the group followed and enjoyed the rest of their night.
