Well then, here I am, Stand Alone Complex 17, writing Shadow 4. Why u ask? Lady Kjerston of the West told me so and she knows how to IM me, damn friends. -.-; oh well… here it is, Chapter 4! To spice things up, we're going to start off with Inuyasha!

Chapter 4: The Club meeting and aftermath
(-4)(-4)(-4)(-4)(-4)
Inuyasha was almost there. The Blue Flame was in a musty looking warehouse that looked like it had been abandoned for years. It was supposed to have a sign that said 'The Blue Flame' on it. Inuyasha looked and saw a rickety old sign that was half way off. It had flickering lights that were just about to burn out. It said, 'The Blue Flame'.
' Finally! I found the damn thing! Looks like they don't want to attract attention.' He thought. He parked his motorcycle behind a building not to far away. He turned on the alarm and went up to the door and knocked.
"Who's there?" the guy behind the door asked. "What's your name, how old are you and how many people are in you party?" he asked. Inuyasha thought.
"Inuyasha Taisho, sixteen in a half, and only one." He said
"You may enter…" the guy said opening the door. Inuyasha looked at him. He was fairly tall and had bright blue hair in a Mohawk. He had a tight black shirt on with a silver dagger on it and blue ripped up jeans. Inuyasha nodded and went in.
Inside, there were lots of different colored lights and a large dance floor in the middle. In order to get down there, though, u had to walk down a series of metal stairs with a railing. Inuyasha went down the stairs and over to the right where there was a large bar. The whole thing was a large warehouse turned into a club. On the left side, the dance floor and a stage where people could sing, a band could play, and where DJ was playing.
Inuyasha went to the bar and sat in one of the stools. ' I don't feel like dancing right now so I guess I'll get drunk THEN dance.' He smirked. 'I like that idea.' The bartender came up to him.
"Hello there. What can I do ya for?" she asked. From what Inuyasha could tell, she was a half tiger demon. She had long maroon, black, and copper hair and had two stripes on each of her cheeks and arms. She was African-American and had orange-brown eyes with tiger ears on top of her head. She was really pretty. She was wearing black cargo pants and a red tank top that had 'Tiger girl' on it with claw marks. She also had a long orange and black tiger tail. She was leaning in the table.
"Hey. Can I have a… Fat Tire?" (A/N: I think that's what they're called…) Inuyasha said. "Oh yea. The name is Inuyasha." He said winking at her.
"Fat Tire? OK, my names Tigeme. You might not want to wink at me in front of him." Tigeme said pointing to a ¾ dog demon guy with shoulder length silver hair, golden eyes, and dog-ears.
"Why not?" Inuyasha asked. "Because he's my boyfriend. He gets pretty jealous too." She said shrugging. Inuyasha winced; he looked pretty strong. Tigeme walked off to get his drink.
' Some guys just never stop hitting on me…' she thought with a sigh.

Kagome was having equally hard time as Inuyasha did finding the club. She finally came across this run down looking warehouse with a flickering sign that said 'The Blue Flame'.
'YES! I finally found it! Took me a hell of a long time though…' she thought while looking for a place to park. She found a spot right behind a building not to far away next to this black motorcycle with neon green flames on it. ' Wow. I envy the guy who has this bike…' she thought while walking across the street to The Blue Flame. Kagome went up to the door and knocked on it.
"Who's there?" the guy behind the door asked. "What's your name, how old are you and how many people are in you party?" he asked. Kagome looked at the guy. 'Why in the hell would they want to ask that!' she thought. Then she answered.
"Kagome Higurashi, sixteen, and only one." She said. The guy opened the door. Kagome stepped in and looked at the mass of grinding bodies on the dance floor. She smiled slyly and went down the stairs, to the right, into the bar. She sat down when a bartender came up.
" Hello! What can I get ya?" he asked. Kagome looked at him. He looked like a three-fourths dog demon. He had shoulder-length silver hair with dog-ears and a green bandana on. He was a nice tan color and had nice muscles. He was wearing dark ripped jeans with chains on them and a dark green tank top with the arms ripped up that showed his muscles. He also had a long tan tail.
"Hey. Can I get a Budweiser please?" Kagome asked. "My names Kagome." She said smiling.
" Cool. My names Raetoe and that," Raetoe pointed to a girl with different color hair and tiger ears, "is my girlfriend, Tigeme. She's really sweet. You should get to know her." He said and went to get her drink.

Inuyasha sighed. He couldn't get drunk even if he wanted to. So he decided, since he wasn't exactly, sober, he would go on the dance floor and dance with a couple random girls. He set down his glass, hopped off his stool and went onto the dance floor. He went into the crowd as the song, The Girl All the Bad Guys Want by Hardcore Dogs. Inuyasha remembered when they made that song…
:FlAsHbAcK:
"Hey guys!" Miroku said running into Inuyasha's garage.
"Miroku! What's the rush? Did you make up a new song?" Inuyasha asked trying to catch up with Miroku.
Miroku was running around the garage looking for his guitar pick. He finally found it and dragged Inuyasha to the stage and brought him his guitar. Miroku set the newly written music in front of Inuyasha. Inuyasha blinked and read over it.
"Miroku? What the hell is this?" Inuyasha asked looking at the lyrics and music, "The Girl All the Bad Guys Want? What the hell…" he said then looked at Miroku.
"Yea! It's about a rocker girl who is really cool but the guy is afraid to talk to her. I based it on my two friends Kagome and Sango. They're just like that, except the name is different. I wrote it in Language Arts. Just try it, its really cool! Please Inuyasha?" Miroku asked looking really pitiful. Inuyasha sighed.
"Fine. You want to sing it or do u want me to?" Inuyasha asked. There was no way he could get out of this one.
"I will. I just needed an electric guitar!" an exited Miroku said. He gave a back up electric guitar part to Shesshomaru. He told Shippo to wing it because he couldn't write drum parts for shit. Once everyone read over it and played a few notes, Miroku started,
"8 o'clock, Monday night and I'm waitin'
To finally talk to a girl a little cooler than me.
Her name is Nona, she's a rocker with a nose ring,
She wears a two way, but I'm not quite sure what that means.
And when she walks,
All the wind blows and the angels sing.
She doesn't notice me!
Cause she is watchin' wrestling
Creamin' over tough guys
Listenin' to rap metal
Turntables in her eyes
It's like a bad movie
She is lookin' through me
If you were me, then you'd be
Screamin' "Someone shoot me!"
As I fail miserably,
Tryin' to get the girl all the bad guys want.
She's the girl all the bad guys want!"… (Sorry guys I didn't want to spoil the whole song… I'm going to put it in later. Sorry!)
"Dude…" Inuyasha started his eyes were all swirly, "you wrote a song on your friends! My god you're perverted! But besides that, it was really good." Inuyasha said. Everyone fell to the floor twitching except Miroku and Inuyasha. They looked around and shrugged. After everyone hit Miroku over the head for being so perverted, they went on with practice.
: EnD FlAsHbAcK:
Inuyasha chuckled at the memory. 'Miroku could be so perverted…' he thought. He got himself off of memory lane and back to dancing. He found out that everyone around him stopped dancing and was looking at the center of the dance floor. Inuyasha looked and being a little taller than most people, saw what was in the middle. He saw… (A/N: to be very evil I could leave it off here. Since I want to stay alive I'll continue, but there is a catch! A person change!)

Kagome was on her third beer and wasn't getting very drunk. 'Damn! I want to have a good time but I can't do that if I'm not drunk!' she thought, frustrated. She called over Tigeme, who in the last forty-five minutes had become very good friends with, along with Raetoe. Also in those forty-five minutes, Kagome managed to spill beer all over her skirt. Luckily, her truck was the one she used for doing music videos and going places around town. That means she had lots of spare pants and shirts.
Kagome went out to her truck and pulled out black jeans that had silver and black studded belt, and silver string sewing it up at the thigh and the lower shin. It loose loops and stuff hanging off of them. Kagome slipped them on and went back inside.
"Hey Tigeme? Can I have another beer? I want to get drunk tonight and dance!" she said laughing a little at the end. Tigeme sweat dropped.
"Damn Kagome! Isn't three beers enough! I think you should go out and dance." Tigeme said sounding like her mom. Raetoe came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist while kissing her neck.
" Yea Kagome, Tigeme's right. Go out and dance. We'll even come out with you." Raetoe said. Tigeme had a confused look on her face. "We will?" she asked. Raetoe nodded. Tigeme sighed and reached behind herself to take off her black apron that had 'The Blue Flame' in blue flames. She found out Raetoe had already taken it off and had his off. Tigeme sighed, grabbed Kagome's arm and headed out onto the dance floor.
'I can't believe he's making me do this…' Tigeme thought while dancing with Raetoe. Kagome was thinking along the same lines. (A/N: Dani? Doesn't that sound like something me and rob would do? .)
'This is getting boring. Time to spice things up!' Kagome thought while stepping into the middle of the dance floor. Ever since she was little and her music career took off, she had been taking dance lessons. After she stopped, she took the dance moves and spiced them up.
She was doing a mix of break dancing and grinding with random guys watching her. Everyone stopped and looked at her with eyes the size of dinner plates. The dance went perfectly with the song playing. She was getting tired when the DJ's voice rang out and she stopped.
"WOW! To the chick break dancing in the middle, great job and nice ass- I mean moves," he said and winked. Kagome flicked him of and smirked, "Oh feisty. Come and see me later," Kagome flicked him off again, " anyway, we have a special treat tonight! Welcome Linkin Park!" he yelled and everybody cheered.
Linkin Park played a few songs and then said something about a song they were going to play. " This is a special song my friend Tigeme," he looked over to her and winked. She smiled and Raetoe growled. " This is her favorite song, Nobody's Listening!" he shouted. Everybody screamed again and the music started.
Kagome had spotted a certain silver-haired hanyou in the crowd and decided to make his day. She started dancing and when the words came on, she would head for him.
000000person change000000
Inuyasha was watching the girl in the middle. The DJ said something and she flicked him off, twice! Linkin Park said something and Nobody's Listening was coming on. She started dancing towards him.
"Co-come-come-come comin' at you
Come-comin' at you from
Co-come-comin' at you from"
Kagome swayed her hips from side to side as she walked through the parted crowd going towards him. He stopped dancing and sent her a look. She winked and mouthed, 'Come dance with me.' He smirked and went up to her.
'Hmmmm… I didn't know Kikyo was here…' he thought as she came up to him.
"Yo
Peep the style and the kids checkin' for it
The number one question is how could you ignore it
We drop right back in the cut
Over basement tracks
With raps that got you backin' this up like
Rewind that
We're just rolling with the rhythm
Rise from the ashes of stylist division
With these non-stop
Lyrics of life livin'
Not to be forgotten
But still unforgiven
But in the meantime
There are those who wanna talk this and that
So I suppose
That it gets to a point
Where feelings gotta get hurt
And get dirty with the people spreading the dirt
It goes"
She wrapped her arm around his neck and brought his head down to hers with her other arm spread out to the side of her. She lightly faced the side. Inuyasha put his hands on her waist and let his hands move with her hips. Kagome moved her hand from the side to his hand and bent her knees to the beat making them bob up and down. They stayed like that for a while.
"Tried to give you warning
But everyone ignores me
(Told you everything loud and clear)
But nobody's listening
Called to you so clearly
But you don't want to hear me
(Told you everything loud and clear)
But nobody's listening"
Kagome released Inuyasha and turned around. She had her back up to him and put her hands around his neck pulling him closer. He put his arms around her waist and laid his head on her shoulder. She rubbed her ass on him and felt him tense up. They both were moving to the beat.
'GOD DAMN! I didn't know Kikyo could move this way. Maybe she wants to get back together…' he thought dancing.
"I got a heart full of pain
Head full of stress
Handful of anger
Held in my chest
And everything left's a waste of time
I hate my rhymes
But hate everyone else's more
I'm riding on the back of this pressure
Guessing that it's better
I can't keep myself together
Because all of this stress
Gave me something to write on
The pain gave me something
I could set my sights on
Never forget the blood sweat and tears
The uphill struggle over years
The fear and
Trash talking and the people it was to
And the people that started it
Just like you"
Not a lot of people were looking at them, but they didn't care. They were lost in the rhythm of the song and each other's eyes. Kagome had to look out of his eyes a couple of times to keep from not drooling. Inuyasha flipped the girl in his arms around and moved his hands to her hips. He moved her hips as she smiled and put her hands on his back.
"Tried to give you warning
But everyone ignores me
(Told you everything loud and clear)
But nobody's listening
Called to you so clearly
But you don't want to hear me
(Told you everything loud and clear)
But nobody's listening
I got a heart full of pain
Head full of stress
Handful of anger
Held in my chest
Uphill struggle
Blood sweat n' tears
Nothing to gain
But everything to fear"
They did moves throughout the song to show each other what the other could do. Even though they didn't know each other, friendly competition wouldn't hurt; right? The whole time Kagome was thinking, 'Who in the hell is this hot guy I'm dancing with! Whoever he is… I like him.'
On the other hand, Inuyasha was having a series of thoughts most being, 'Who in the world can dance like this! I bet she's the only one. GOD DAMN she's hot… she's got a fine ass too. Maybe Kikyo did change, but I'm not so sure its Kikyo.'
"I got a heart full of pain
Head full of stress
Handful of anger
Held in my chest
Uphill struggle
Blood sweat n' tears
Nothing to gain
But everything to fear
Heart full of pain
Tried to give you warning
But everyone ignores me
(Told you everything loud and clear)
But nobody's listening
Called to you so clearly
But you don't want to hear me
(Told you everything loud and clear)
But nobody's listening
I got a heart full of pain
Head full of stress
Nobody's listening
Handful of anger
Held in my chest
Nobody's listening
Uphill struggle
Blood sweat n' tears
Nobody's listening
Nothing to gain
But everything to fear
Nobody's listening
"Co-come-come-come comin' at you
Co-come-come-come comin' at you
Come-comin' at you from
Co-come-comin' at you from
Co-come-comin' at you from every side"
At the end the song, Kagome pushed into Inuyasha and whispered, "Nice dancing with you, Stranger. Maybe we should do it again." She said in his ear. She smirked and winked and started walking off but he said something that made her stop dead in her tracks.
"Hey Kikyo. Where'd you learn to dance like that? It was nice seeing you again." He said smirking. The girl turned around slowly and cautiously.
000000Kagome's POV000000
'WHAT THE FUCK DID HE JUST CALL ME! Curses, stay calm Kagome, stay calm.' I told my self. I couldn't believe this JACKASS just called me HER!
'Hey wait a minute!' I thought. 'This…. GUY must've been the guy she dated! I'm brilliant!' I thought, proud of myself. I said my next words calmly but lined with poison.
000000Normal POV000000
"No." Kagome said in a scary tone with a smirk planted on her face. Inuyasha shuddered. Damn, she was scary when she was mad.
"Oh. I wonder if…" Inuyasha said trailing off. Kagome wouldn't let him finish his sentence and stormed off towards the bar.
"Damn…. The DJ's right… she IS feisty…" Inuyasha said and smirked.

"Hey guys." Kagome greeted tiredly.
"Hey Kags! Get that dance you wanted?" Raetoe asked with Tigeme in his arms. He was leaning on a table with his legs spread out and Tigeme leaning on him with his arms around her. Her arms were on his arms.
"Yea, actually, I did. I danced with this guy. The jackass, he called me Kikyo. I didn't catch his name though." Kagome shrugged. Tigeme looked at her with a questioning glance.
"What did he look like?" Tigeme asked. Raetoe looked at her for a second then back at Kagome.
"Well, he had long sliver hair, golden-amber eyes, and had doggy ears. Oh yea! He was really tall. Why?" Kagome asked.
" Just asking…." She said. She whispered something in Raetoe's ear and Raetoe grinned. "Hey Kagome? Our shift is over so we're going to leave. We'll see you later. Here's our email addresses." She said and handed Kagome two scraps of paper.
"Okay. Thanks I'll email you. Bye!" Kagome said. After a few more dances and songs, Kagome went home.

"Hey Inuyasha. We're going now so I'll catch you later. It was nice meeting you and here's our email addresses." Raetoe said hanging Inuyasha two slips of paper.
"Thanks. I'll see you around." Inuyasha said. After a couple more dances and songs, Inuyasha went home.

"Hey guys I'm home!" Inuyasha yelled into the mansion as he stepped into the front door. He went into the kitchen and saw Shiori sitting on the couch, watching cartoons. He made some popcorn and sat down next to Shiori.
"Hey Shiori. How are you?" Inuyasha asked getting a handful of popcorn and shoved it in his mouth. Shiori glanced at the popcorn.
"Fine…." She said reaching her hand over to the popcorn. Inuyasha pulled the popcorn out of Shiori's reach.
" That's good. Want some popcorn?" He asked shoving another handful of popcorn into his mouth.
"Yes… that would be nice of you…." Shiori said almost climbing over Inuyasha to get it. Inuyasha pulled it away yet again.
"Well, TOO BAD!" Inuyasha yelled. He jumped off the couch and ran out of the room. Shiori growled (AN: O.O; well, I didn't except her to do that…)
"INUYASHA! Get back here with that popcorn!" Shiori yelled and ran after Inuyasha.
Inuyasha was running around with popcorn in his hands when the popcorn was snatched from his hands. He turned his head to look, while still running, and ran into a wall. Someone behind him, no doubt the popcorn snatcher, started bursting out laughing.
"HAHAHAHAHA! Holy shit that was funny!" the person yelled. Inuyasha got up from the floor and saw Shesshomaru laughing his ass off. Shiori finally caught up to Inuyasha and ran up to Shesshomaru. He handed her the popcorn.
"Damn Inuyasha. You really should watch wear your going." Shesshomaru wiped his eyes, smirked and picked up Shiori who had the popcorn.
"Oh yea, and don't keep popcorn from little kids!" Shiori yelled and stuffed popcorn in her mouth. Shesshomaru laughed and headed down stairs.
"Damn older brothers… a guy can't tease his little sister without being harassed…" Inuyasha mumbled. He went back down stairs, grabbed some more popcorn and glared at Shesshomaru. Shesshomaru stuck his tongue out.
"One word: Ha." Shesshomaru said. Shiori bust out laughing with popcorn bits flying everywhere. Inuyasha sighed at went up to his room.

(A/N: Kagome got home later than Inuyasha did. She stayed longer. It started at 7pm and ended at 2am. Inuyasha got home at 10:30pm and Kagome got home at 12am) Kagome stepped into the house and quietly shut the door behind her. She was getting ready to sneak up to her room when she heard her mother call her.
" KAGOME! DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT TIME IT IS!" she asked/screamed.
"Yes…" Kagome looked at her watch "It's… going on 12.am." she said and smirked. Kagome's mom sighed.
"12 AM KAGOME! YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN HOME AT 10!" her mother said. She went on and on until Kagome couldn't take it anymore and finally shut her up.
"MOM! I…don't…. care…get…it?" She said slowly as if talking to a preschooler. " You didn't SAY anything about what time to be home. Hell, I left before you could. Now if I can go now, I have more important things to do then listen to you LECTURE me!" Kagome screamed and walked up to her room.
Kagome went up stairs and took a shower. She smelled like cigarettes, sweat, and alcohol. She got changed and went to bed. She was exhausted. Tomorrow, Whoop Ass 17 had practice for Battle of the Bands.
000000scene change000000
Inuyasha was starting to get tired. It was about 1am and he had Battle of the Bands practice. Everyone had gone to bed so there was nobody to harass. Inuyasha sighed.
"Well, minus well go to sleep. No use staying up when there's nothing to do." He mumbled and got up from the floor. (A/N: the had been playing X-box) He got ready for bed and lay down.
'Battle of the Bands is going to be soooo cool! Too bad we have to practice though.' Inuyasha thought before drifting into a peaceful sleep.
