Kagome wanted to beat her head against the nearest wall.

"How did you manage to convince me to do this, again?" The raven sighed, glaring at her boss.

"I'm buying you a new car, giving you a week off, and paying for any entertainment purpose -including shopping- you do for the next three months. That's how!" Toga grinned. "My nephew and I are grateful!"

"Wait, Ichiro-san is your nephew?!" Kagome's jaw dropped as they nodded.

"This way, Kagome-chan!" Ichiro sang, taking her arm and leading her into the studio. "Coco is waiting for you."

"This is my new dancer?" The dark skinned woman waiting in the professional studio lifted an eyebrow. "She'll do. I will turn her into our star by the end of the week."

"Star?"

"Sim. Maria was the lead dancer, and you are her replacement." Coco nodded, striding to the speakers set up.

"Toga," Kagome growled, reiki pouring off her. "I'm going to kill you and your nephew."

"Sim! Sim!" Coco applauded. "Dark side of the miko!"
