Chapter 1:

Its summer, the year, 2009, and I've been home from Tokyo for about six months. The last time I've had a chance to hang out with Sango and Kikyo was in the middle of March, so I set up a reunion for the middle of May, and there was just one more week to go. What I didn't tell them was that Shards of a Demons Soul were going to be in town. I knew the tickets had been sold out for ages and I didn't want them to be disappointed. I was walking up the many shrine steps to my home, having gotten out of the last day of work as a teachers aid thanks to the summer break, when I heard something interesting on my portable radio. Thinking I might have misunderstood what was said, I turned it up.
"That's right ladies, when this song finishes playing, the first caller with the correct answer wins not one, not two, but three backstage passes, you heard me, three, to the ever popular (and might I add, sold out) Shards of a Demons Soul "
 'Okay, breathe Kagome, nothing has happened yet, don't work yourself up for nothing, you probably won't even get through.'
I decided to sit down on the step I was currently standing on, you know, just incase I freak out and lose my balance, and I waited patiently for the song to finish playing, my fingers ready to key in the number for the radio station.
'Finally, it's finished!' I took a deep breath, dialed the number and waited as I heard the phone start to ring.
Suddenly, some one picks up the other end, and at first I think it sounds weird, but then I realize, not only am I hearing what is going on over the phone, but that I am also live...on the Radio, 'Oh My gods…'
"This is your Radio Show Host Toki Yuki, congratulations, you are our first caller, are you ready for the question Miss?...."
 "Kagome," I reply, almost breathlessly might I add. I couldn't help but think 'what do I have to lose, I probably know it, what with all the stuff Sango mentioned about anything that even remotely involved the band,' "Okay, I am ready for your question Toki."
"As you may know, the band Shards of a Demons Soul got their name from an infamous legend that revolved around a certain jewel. If you can tell me what jewel it was and the supposed creator of the jewel, the Prize is yours. You have 30 seconds to think before I require your answer"
 'Okay Kags, think hard, you know this, you read it a long time ago in an interview, not to mention gramps has brought it up before..... think, think, THINK….That's it.' "I believe the correct answer would be the Shikon no Tama, or Jewel of Four Souls and it was created by a powerful Priestess named Midoriko during a terrible battle with an evil demon."
There is silence for a few seconds, though those few seconds seemed like ages before he finally replied. "I am sorry Kagome," I feel myself gasp 'there is no way I got that wrong…' "but it seems that you will have to change whatever plans you made for Friday the 19th of June because you will be back stage with two of your friends listening to Shards of a Demons Soul, please stay on the line so that I can get your information.
 After giving Toki my full name and information, I hung up the phone and stared into space for a bit. 'No way...NO FREAKING WAY! Not only will I get to see Shards of a Demons Soul, but I will get to meet them…live, behind stage with two of my best friends...oh they are so going to flip out.'
By the time I get home, I have decided that I am going to keep the concert a surprise. I know it might be a risky move, but the expressions on their faces will be too priceless. I just need to call them and make sure they know what to bring.
Deciding to call Sango first, I pull out my phone once again and, finding her number, push send. The line seems to ring forever before she finally answers, breathing heavily.
"Sango? Are you okay, why are you breathing so hard?"
"Sorry, my phone was in my room and I was on the other side of the house. I didn't know how long it would stay ringing, so I ran to get it as quickly as possible."
"Oh...okay." I say, "Anyways, I just wanted to double check on the day you will be arriving next week, it's Thursday right?"
"Yeah, I should be there Late Thursday afternoon, say, around 5P.M, or so. Why?"
"No reason," I reply, "oh, and I wanted to let you know that we might go out to a fun club or something so make sure that you bring something perfect for that, but comfortable for a long night out as well, okay?"
"Sweet! Keeping awesome surprises till the last moment, that is just so like you Kags."
'Oh, you have no idea about the surprises I have in mind.'
"Well, it was all spur of the moment, but I try. I have to go let Kikyo know as well, so I will see you next week, bye Sango!"
"Bye, see you later." And then the phone clicks. I stand there for a bit with a huge smile on my face, before I finally started to dial Kikyo's number.
"Kik, is that you?" I ask once the phone has been answered.
"Yeah, I'm just about to run off to work, so you'll have to talk quickly."
"Okay, I just wanted to make sure that you were going to arrive late Thursday afternoon and to tell you to bring something nice yet comfortable because we might go to a club on Friday."
"Sounds good," she says, "I'll be in town at about 5:30 or six, I have to go though, so bye."
"Great, see you when you get here, bye!"
Now, I just have to wait patiently until next week...it still hasn't clicked yet, but I am sure that it will when I go to the radio station tomorrow to pick up the passes...I just can't believe it.

Authors Note:

Hey everyone, If this is rough, I apologize, like I said, it's my first story, it was written for something completely different but I've decided I wanted to change it and see how it would go. On that note, I feel I need to clarify something. Since this story was written a while ago, plus it takes place in modern times, therefore the personalities will be very different from those of the actual show/manga. I'm trying to edit some and change this a little, but if I did more than that it would be a whole new story and that's not what I want at the moment.
I'm fairly new at this, and I'd appreciate all the encouragement and critique you'd like to offer (just don't be cruel, if you are, I'll call you out on it) and please, let me know if something doesn't make sense, I'll totally reply back to you and answer your questions as best I can

Lastly, sorry it's short, but that's just the way it goes sometimes. Leave me a review and I'll make sure to send one of the Band members with a plate of cookies, haha!
