Shikon University
Chapter 25: The Party and Nelly's Idea
Sango was dressed in a pink dress that went down to above her knees. It had black frills at the end of the dress and it was a metallic black silk. Her hair neatly kept down and crimped with her bangs kept back. Miroku bought her a lily died pink, with a red band around her wrist. She could not believe what Kagome had done to her hair. From pictures before that Kagome showed, her; her hair was always long. Now, she had short hair that was freshly done that night and her dress! Kagome's dress was much better than the one she chose for her. Wait a minute, what happened to the dress she gave her? Sango grabbed Kagome's wrist yanking her to the side for a minute.
Sango fumed. "Where's the dress I told you to get?" Kagome stared blankly at her enraged friend. She barely could hear over the blaring music. "What are you talking about, I took it back. I didn't really like it, I guess." Kagome spoke truthfully. Sango slapped her friend in the face. "Now, you look better than me!" Kagome could feel her anger rise then slapped Sango back in the face. "Look better than you? Sango, if you think that I will wear whatever you want me to wear than your sadly mistaken. I am not a doll that you can dress me up in whatever I want, in that case I don't want to be your friend, sorry!" Sango was mortified, how dare she break their friendship. She can tell Kagome to do whatever, whenever she wants. Although that is where Sango went wrong, Kagome unlike any other person in that room was not going to be treated like some runway model. 'How could she think me, of all people expect me to buy what she wants me to buy. Sango that was your second chance, forget about us being friends again.' Kagome felt the tears threaten to trickle down her soft cheeks. She wiped away the wet substance, leaving a little bit of makeup to smudge.
Sango walked back to the group of couples and revealed that she was livid; Kagome just dumped their friendship in the trash. She was jealous, not because of her, but because she has everything. She was going to bring her happiness into the shadows. As soon as she felt built arms embrace her, she turned around to find Miroku setting his chin on her shoulder. "Sango what happened between Kagome and you?" No answer. "Do you want to tell me what happened?" Still, no answer. "Would you care if I…" Sango blushed a shade of pink that was a rival to her dress. "Hentai!" With that, she gave Miroku a nasty slap on the cheek, then left.
Miroku sighed, if she was tired she would not even notice. Sango could not take it anymore she was going to find a shoulder to cry on. 'Kikyo…where are you?' There Kikyo was talking to Inuyasha in a flirtatious way. Inuyasha faintly smiled but then turned around to go find Kagome. Kikyo sighed, if only she could get Inuyasha to like her. Maybe she will need to wear more black, double the black mascara, eye shadow and eyeliner; black is always his favourite colour. Sango tapped the spaced out girl on the shoulder. Kikyo snapped out of her thoughts and looked at the angered Sango. "What happened?" Sango showed Kikyo to a spot where they could talk.
Meanwhile, Kagome saw Koga and the others. Looking at the monk with his abused cheek, she attempted to ask him what happened but he started to laugh slightly. Kagome took that as a signal that she didn't really want to know. "Ri...ght…." Everyone was there and accounted for, except Inuyasha. 'Now this is not a very good place to sniff out his scent, since there are thousands of people. Inuyasha, on the other hand was wondering the same thoughts as Kagome. She is nowhere to be found. A couple of girls had asked him to dance and there was already six slow songs that played and she was off with Sango. He was getting worried. He promised that he would be there for her. 'What if she is in trouble? What if--.' Before he continued, he was in flash searching for the girl of his dreams. When he spotted her red dress, he bolted for her. Kagome sighed heavily, 'he's not any…' Kagome embraced tightly by muscular arms. She sensed it was Inuyasha. She smiled as she struggled to turn around in his tightly wrapped arms. He loosened his grip on her so she could turn around. "Hello, pooky." Inuyasha growled at the nickname. "Feh, do you have to call me that, Snookems?" He asked smirking at the name he just entitled her as. Kagome grinned mischievously. "Only if you call me that." Inuyasha came centimeters close to her face. "What if I don't, what would you do then?"
"I guess I won't give you your gift on Christmas." Inuyasha whimpered. "Fine then you won't get yours either." As they both argued and fought playfully, Nelly saw the two near the stage. She smiled at the couple. 'Hmm, I wonder if I am allowed to do this.' When she stepped up to the microphone, and began her little speech. The crowd of people silenced themselves for the pop singer's announcement. "Okay, I had my agents go around and see who is worthy enough to be our 'guest singer'..." Every female on the dance floor crossed their fingers, hoping it would be them. "So give it up for Kagome Higurashi!" Whistles, cheers and clapping sounded throughout the dance room.
Kagome looked up at Nelly and almost fainted. She had been chosen to be the 'guest singer'. Inuyasha was just as surprised as his girlfriend was. He nudged her to go up on the stage, "Go on don't just stand there like an idiot!" Kagome nodded then had two strong security men help her up the stairs. Inuyasha smiled. She deserved to sing with Nelly. She was one of the best singers here. Heck. She was the best singer here! Nelly gave her a hug once she arrived on the stage.
Kikyo looked up at the now famous Kagome. She fumed with jealousy. Kikyo stood up and signaled Sango to follow. Both girls walked out of the dance room and went into a hidden stair route to the very top of the stage. Kikyo had an evil plot to ruin Kagome's reputation and it was going to be sweet revenge. Good thing there was cameras here, because it will ruin her life. National TV is recording the dance tonight!
Speaking of the TV crew. They taped everything of the dance, even when Kagome had been slapped. They saw what everyone was doing.
"Inuyasha!" A loud voice screamed. Sango grabbed his arm, "its Kagome!"
"Yeah I know she's up there." Inuyasha replied. "She…"
Sango shook her head in protest. "She won't be if you don't shut up!" Inuyasha looked at her confused, something was not right.
She looked into the crowd searching for Inuyasha.
"Kikyo is planning on— Sango was cut off when she heard the crowd silence once again. She then began to whisper into Inuyasha's ear. Inuyasha was in shock, so that is what she was trying to do! Nelly smiled. "Now that you see the female 'guest singer', let's give it up for our male singer!" Everyone froze. Koga held his breath hoping it would be him, as like every other guy except for the ones who had a girlfriend. (Technically Miroku has a girlfriend; almost…uh, oh I think I gave away the next part of this chapter… sweat drops…my bad…) Nelly read the piece of paper "INUYASHA!" Inuyasha was appalled. 'He had… to sing. Him? Yeah right, he would have to sing a duet with Kagome infront of the whole world! But, what about Kikyo's evil plot? He would have to tell Kagome very quick before she plans on hurting her. If she does…well let us hope, she does not.' Sango waved her hand infront of Inuyasha's face, trying to get him out of his head and into the world. He walked back after realizing that everyone had been looking at him, waiting for him as well to wake up and notice he had been chosen.
Kagome watched Inuyasha as he marched up those stairs. He smiled as did her, but there was something troubling him in his eyes. Now it was Nelly's turn to announce the rest of the congratulations to the both of them. This was Inuyasha's chance. He whispered in her dog-ears. She had a spasm attack inside her head. "Don't look up!" He finally said. Kagome could not resist the urge to look up, but Inuyasha made sure she wasn't going to look up.
…Meanwhile…
Kikyo looked at Kagome with disgust above the stage. She held the black bucket and plugged her nose at the wretched stench. In the bucket, there was dead worms, scorpions, the world's largest millipedes and cockroaches, rotten fish, and finally pig blood! (EW…relives the memory of watching this on fear factor…yech! I would burn Kikyo alive and throw her ashes in Naraku's castle so she could haunt him for life! That would be torture for her and Naraku! Laughs evilly.) Kagome and Inuyasha moved away from the spot where Kikyo's shadow could be seen. Kikyo cursed them and moved as well. This time the curtains shadows were interfering with Kikyo's. Inuyasha heard Nelly say that they would share a kiss and then dance after wards. "Kagome, you can sense Kikyo's scent and presence right?" Inuyasha managed to ask below a whisper so no one could hear but Kagome.
Kagome nodded lightly. "Yeah." She sensed Kikyo steady the bucket in her arms as the time was coming. Kagome nudged Inuyasha to the left more. He willingly moved over. "Kikyo is always going to be on top of us, even if we do decide to move while we are kissing." Kagome finished. Inuyasha nodded, "well, even if she does manage to shower us with grubs and blood, she won't be able to escape!" Inuyasha chuckled. "Sango locked the door after she left to find me." Kagome grinned. 'I owe her an apology. I should have known that she was only spying on icky Kikyo.'
Nelly walked up to them both and smiled after glancing at her stopwatch, "Aw you two look like an adorable couple!" The couple blushed. "Inuyasha you look rather handsome in that tux, and Kagome. You were made to wear that dress!" Kagome blushed. "Thanks, you too." Nelly looked down at her outfit. She had a black dress that was knee length. The ends spread around her at each little fold and crease. The top had two spaghetti straps on each shoulder. Nelly replied, "What this ole' thing? It is a hand-me-down that I got from my distant cousin." Kagome nodded. Nelly looked at the audience again, "Shikon Uni., are you ready to listen to our new singer's?" The audience roared with excitement. They both gulped, 'here it goes…' he whispered in her ear.
The Start of Something New– High School Musical
(If you heard the song before than it shouldn't be a problem, but just for a quick reminder it goes to the chorus, then after the chorus keep going, then to bridge#2, then to chorus, then back to the paragraph under bridge 2, then go to chorus for 2 times and then down to the ending. It's confusing, but it works.)
Inuyasha stepped forward to the mic. Leaving Kagome's grasp, and began to sing softly towards her.
Inuyasha: Living in my own world, where they understand, that anything can happen when you take a chance.
Kagome looked into the amber eyes, and then began to sing her part.
Kagome: I never believed in, (Kagome smiled up at him, as she moved to join hands with him, again.)
He smiled back down at her, and then looked out to the audience smirking at all the surprised faces.
Inuyasha: Oh oh.
Kagome: What I couldn't see, I never opened my heart.
Inuyasha: Oh oh.
Kagome: To all the possibilities…ohhhh.
Bridge
Both: I know
Kagome: That something as changed
Both: Never felt this way,
Kagome: And I'm here tonight
Chorus
Both: This could be the start of something new; it feels so right to be here with you, oh, and now I'm looking in your eyes, I'm feeling my heart, the start of something new.
Inuyasha: Now who would ever thought that, mmm…
Both: We both be here tonight.
Inuyasha: Ohh..
Kagome: yeah, And my world looks so much brighter.
Inuyasha: Brighter, brighter.
Kagome: Oh, with you by my side. Inuyasha wrapped his arms around her waist.
Bridge #2
Both: I know
Kagome: That something as changed
Both: Never felt this way,
Kagome: I know it's for real. (Back to Chorus)
Inuyasha: I never knew that it could happen till it happened to me. Ohh…yeah.
Kagome: I didn't know it before, but now it's easy to see.
Both: Ohhhh…(Back to chorus X2 then go straight to the end below.)
Ending
Kagome: The start of something new,Both: The start of something, new…
They joined in a kiss after they finished the song. Applauses sounded in the air, along with whistles and screams. Nelly smiled brightly then picked up the microphone. "Wow! Have you two ever thought of starting a singing career? You guys were born to sing!" Kagome blushed, as did Inuyasha at the comment. After the couple left the stage, they totally forgot about Kikyo. "Hey, I wondered what happened to the grub." Kagome laughed. Inuyasha laughed at her joke. "Maybe she fell off." Inuyasha turned around smelling Sango's scent. "Hey, you two, check what happened to Kikyo!" Sango smiled at Kagome. Kagome held sympathy for Sango's abused cheek, it still was a bit red from earlier. "Sango," Of hearing her name being said, she looked back slightly. "I'm sorry." Sango smiled. "It's okay Kagome! I deserved that, I should have told you about the plan to mess with Kikyo!" Kagome lightened up and then joined arms with Sango, hugging her slightly.
"So, what happened to Kikyo?" Inuyasha asked interested in the subject. Sango smirked, "Well, if you want to know, follow me." She led the way towards Kikyo and when they finally reached the raven-haired girl, she was holding a sign that said, 'Best dressed was my goal. Well I think I went too far!' Kagome couldn't help herself from laughing Kikyo was covered literally in the pig guts and grubs. Sango cut in the laughter, "Wow, Kikyo I never knew you were this desperate for attention!" Kikyo sneered at the comment. "Oh, shut up you, you, you filthy defector. You tricked me into believing that you were on my side!" Sango laughed. "Well, guess you thought wrong. I am always going to be on Kagome and Inuyasha's side. I don't know why I thought you were my friend. At least I know that you are working for Naraku. After he took your innocence, you were tired of him. Inuyasha blinked. "Then you decided you wanted to move on and go back to Inuyasha. After seeing him with Kagome, you were desperate to try, kill, and humiliate her. Naraku made her hanyou to help her kill you after leaving him and to try and kill her and friends for his entertainment." Kagome was confused; Naraku helped her but then wanted the gang and her dead. Kikyo never thought it like that. 'He was trying to kill me? But the day we both attacked Inuyasha and Kagome…it was all an act, to trick me!'
"Inuyasha, please I didn't know that Naraku was going to try and ruin your lives. I just want you to be mine, again!" Kikyo pleaded for his forgiveness. Inuyasha was sickened. "Since when was I ever yours? You are just some other girl that does not mean anything to me!" Inuyasha looked down at Kagome. "The only girl I care for most is Kagome and no one else!" Kikyo gawked at the hatred he confessed for her. "You bastard! I shall bring you down to hell with me! There we shall live in peace away from Kagome who has obliviously brain-washed you!" Inuyasha growled.
"How about you go down there and never come back up to this side again!" He bellowed. Kikyo furrowed her eyebrows. "How dare you, speak to me with such revulsion. "I'm bringing you down right now if I have to!" Kikyo crossed Kagome's last nerve. She was sick and tired of Kikyo. "You impudent bitch, I will end your life!" Kagome's eyes glowed red, flash back when they were down in the tunnels. Kikyo stepped back frightened. 'Uh oh…'
"Can't escape now, Kikyo." Sango laughed evilly. Everyone in the audience was ready to help attack Kikyo if she got away. Kikyo swallowed back the lump at the back of her throat. "Kagome, why can't we talk this out?" Kagome growled. "Last time, it ended in a fight. Do you expect me to spare your pathetic life instead of just killing you now?" Inuyasha just leaned against the wall watching amused in Kikyo's death. (Well, you know I had to put that! I warned you Kikyo bashing…) Inuyasha mouthed a 'buh-bye' to Kikyo. Kikyo sheepishly cried. "INUYASHA!" Kagome took her chance now then gripped Kikyo's throat with her clawed hand. The camera has pushed their ways through the angry mob of people following every movement of Kagome's body. "KIKYO! Leave Inuyasha, my friends and myself ALONE! GOT IT?" Kikyo squirmed in her death grip. She choked up blood, when Kagome squeezed tighter. "GO TO HELL!" With that, she took a swipe at Kikyo's throat. Kikyo took a gasp. (Bye bye) That was the end of Kikyo. Everyone cheered then picked up Kagome. She smiled with triumph at her accomplishment. Now she can check that off her list of 'things to do'.
Inuyasha looked one last time at Kikyo. She laid there pale, blood flowing out of her throat and lifeless. Sesshomaru looked at the woman and was ready to take his sword and swipe the underworld imps. Inuyasha looked at him. "Don't, she has to learn her lesson!" Sesshomaru nodded then turned back towards Rin, who looked like she was going to faint from Kikyo's state. Sesshomaru turned her around so she wouldn't be able to look at the woman anymore.
Inuyasha followed to where Kagome was now. She returned to her usual self now and more people hung around her! He smiled after embracing her he whispered a thank you to her. She kissed his lips tenderly, murmuring a no problem. Inuyasha pushed his lips harder against hers to show how much he loved her. Kagome smirked, doing the same.
Sango made her way to Miroku. She stopped suddenly when he was talking to another woman. The girl seemed to be interested in him. Sango hid by a table to spy on them. He just groped her ass! Sango flipped. What was he thinking? She thought he loved her. Well she can't do anything; they are not a couple. Maybe he loves someone else more than her. She ran away from the tables, tears rolling down her cheeks. 'Kagome, help me through this!' As if Kagome heard Sango's calls.
Kagome broke her kiss with Inuyasha. "I can feel that Sango is distressed!" Inuyasha nodded. Kagome smiled then kissed him on the cheek. "I'll be back." She could see Sango opened the door to get away from the dance. Kagome sped up chasing after her best friend. "Sango, Sango wait!" Kagome called. She was now on the stairs, opening the doors. When Sango sniffled, she ran in that direction. Sango tripped over her own foot then slid down the floor. She just lay there, rejected and sad. A shadow cast over her weak frame. Kagome bent down to her side. "Sango…I heard your calls. What happened?" Sango looked up. "Miroku—he rejected me!" Kagome gasped. "You asked him out? He rejected you!" Sango shook her head. "He was with another girl. He groped her ass, and she wasn't mad about it!" Kagome calmed down. "That two-timer! He knows that you have feelings for him! He is an ass. Sango you deserve better!" Sango just cried in Kagome's arms. "I guess I wasn't careful! I knew he was perverted, and I thought he was the right one for me!" Kagome shushed her. "It's okay Sango; I'll hurt him for you okay?" Sango just shook her head in protest. "Kagome, it's my fist that he shall talk to! Not yours." Kagome backed away. Sango was mad. Best thing to do is back away and let her take her anger out on something! That something, someone is Miroku! Sango stalked off back towards the dance. Kagome followed a distance behind, not wanting to get in the way of Sango's rage.
When they reached the dance, Sango was already infront of Miroku. Miroku smiled, but soon frowned at what Sango said. "Sango…what are you talking about?"
"You two-timing bastard. I really liked you, but now I saw your other side. I HATE YOUR GUTS!" She punched him in the face. She saw his bloody face before she fled. He laid there, unconscious. The crowds looked at him. Kagome filled Inuyasha on the news. He shook his head at his friend.
…One hour until the dance ended…
Miroku still woke up with ice and Kleenex in his nose. He saw Inuyasha and Kagome dancing to a slow song and Sesshomaru and Rin. Koga had vanished and Sango…" All the events that happened suddenly came back to him. He was under a spell. Sango was thinking that he was hitting another girl. 'I didn't do it…well I did! But it was a spell Sango.' Miroku waited until the slow song ended, so he could ask Kagome where Sango had gone off. Kagome frowned at him. "You blew it Miroku." Miroku looked at Inuyasha for help. "I'm not getting in the middle of this Miroku."
"Thanks…friend!" Miroku said sarcastically. Inuyasha shrugged. "Kagome, where did Sango go?"
"All I know is away from you!" Kagome replied. "Mind telling me what was in your head?" Miroku looked at her. "I was possessed by a spell." Inuyasha looked into Miroku's eyes. The said eyes were filled with honesty, loyalty and were sober. "He's telling the truth." Inuyasha stated. "Well duh!" Miroku added. Kagome nodded. "How do you expect Sango to understand?" Miroku smiled. "I'll just bring you along!" Kagome had to think about that, if she brought Miroku up to her room, Sango would hate her for that. If not, then Sango and Miroku's relationship will be ruined. "Fine, she's up in her room." Miroku smiled at his victory persuasion.
While they were outside Sango's door, Kagome knocked. Sango answered in a cranky voice. "What?"
"Sango it's me, Kagome. Someone's here to talk to you."
"If it's Miroku, go away!" She replied.
"Well, then I'm not leaving until you open!" Miroku exclaimed.
The door squeaked open to a tiny crack. "You got three minutes." Sango said in defeat. Miroku smiled once again. "Okay, Sango. I was under a spell when I did that…action." Sango looked at Kagome to see if she was telling the truth. Kagome nodded. "It was hard to believe but, after asking a couple of other girls why they were upset, it all made sense." Miroku smiled sheepishly. "Miroku, you do know, that—Sango started. "Sango, I would never do that to anyone…except you." Sango sweat dropped at that. "What I'm saying is; I love you and only you." Kagome widened her eyes. She never knew Miroku would dive in so deep! Sango was shocked. "Miroku did you, do you really mean that?" She asked.
"Well if I wasn't I wouldn't be asking, no would I?" He laughed. Kagome took this chance to walk back to the dance.
"Miroku I love you, too." She confessed smiling. Miroku was shocked he was not rejected! He has a girlfriend, finally!
"Miroku! Miroku…" Sango panicked. Her new boyfriend, just fainted!
