"Inuyasha?" I asked into the phone. I had never expected to get a call from this no-good, dirty-rotten dog of a guitarist, but here is was, sitting in my kitchen and waiting for a reply. All I heard was silence. "For all-Pete's sake!" I cried into the receiver, fighting the urge to smash it into the table. "If your going to call me, at least say something!"

"What do you want me to say?" He growled. "I just called to tell you that I wish you would quit."

"No."

"Why not?"

"Because I really love to sing, and its always been my dream to be in a band." I explained. "I don't really have any friends at school, so I was hoping, maybe, a band would help me fit in."

"Guess that dream was crushed," he said nonchalantly. My face turned bright red and I could swear that smoke came out of my ears.

"Maybe, if for one second, you guys could leave your MEGA-PITY PARTY and take a look at what's around you, I could fit in with the band. Unfortunately, you're too hung up over someone who isn't even around anymore to notice me and who I am. You only notice her," I complained.

"I do not! For instance, today I noticed that…"

"What? You noticed that I look just like her! And that just kills you, huh? You can't stand to look at me because I look like HER!"

"No that's not…"

"Yes, it is. But I just want to tell you that I am NOTHING like her. I'm not going to leave you, and I'm not going to quit. My similarities with HER end with out looks. Other than that, I'm Pure Kagome, and nothing else. Got it?"

"But that's not…" But I already hung up the phone. His pitiful response meant nothing to me. I was not Kikyo. I was not going to ditch them. I was not going to break their hearts again. I was Kagome.

New lead singer of the band, WOLVES.

And I was not going to let that demon, evil, stupid, DOG, INUYASHA, tell me otherwise!
