Fruits Basket Fan Fiction ❯ Furuba Idol ❯ Round Three ( Chapter 3 )

Furuba Idol

By, Jamie1317kast

 

Furuba Idol is back! Shigure, Hatori, and Akito have to judge a whole new round of contestants, including Ritsu, Kureno, Shigure himself, and Kagura! As the line of singers grows smaller, everyone finds themselves asking the same question…Who will be the next Furuba Idol?

 

Diclaimer: Fruits Basket is copyrighted to Natsuki Takaya, not me. I don't own any of the songs either. I don't own American Idol. And I don't own Simon either. I don't own Sailor Moon.

 

AN~ I find that it's easier to imagine this whole fic if you have the songs to actually listen to. Just a tip!

 

Rated PG-13 for language.

 

Round Three:

 

* The cameras pan the theater, dazzled with stage lights. The song We Will Rock You plays in the foreground. Akito is lounging in his chair at the judges table and Shigure is flirting with Tohru backstage. Hatori is standing center stage tapping at his microphone. The music dies down.*

 

Hatori: * tap, tap* Is this thing on? * tap, ta-SCREECH* OW-SHIT!

 

Shigure: * backstage* sorry about that!

 

Hatori: God, my ears..what did you do?

 

Shigure: um..would you believe me if I said 'nothing'?

 

Hatori: no.

 

Akito: * growl* just introduce the show, you're taking up air time!

 

Hatori: right. SO, we're back for Furuba Idol, and..um, enjoy the show. …? * nervous*

 

4th random audience member: HATORI, I LOVE YOU!

 

Hatori: Right…I'm getting off stage now. * he scrambles down into his chair* First up is Ritsu. Ritsu, c'mon out now.

 

Ritsu: * hesitantly shuffles out from stage right* Um, can I sing now?

 

Hatori: yes, please go ahead.

 

* Britney Spears music starts to play*

 

Ritsu: I'm sorry, oh so sorry, can't you give one more chance? To make it all up to- oh, so sorry, is that wrong?

 

All: * sweatdrop*

 

Hatori: no, that's ..fine. keep going.

 

Ritsu: no, I know I got it wrong didn't I? And on national television too, I'm so, so sorry. I'm sorry, I'm sorry..

 

Akito: uh oh.

 

Hatori: here it comes!

 

Ritsu: AAAGGGH!!! I'M SORRY, I'M SORRY! THE SHOW'S BEEN RUINED AND IT'S ALL MY FAULT!!! I'M SOOOO SOOORRRYYYY!! GOMENASAIIIIIIIIII!!!! GOMENASAIIII- * poked* ah! * faint*

 

Ayame: It's the magic touch!

 

Shigure: Justice prevails!

 

Hatori: you don't fight for justice, Shigure. And you two nut-cases, get off the stage, it isn't your turn.

 

Shigure: you're right, I don't fight for justice!

 

Ayame: then what do you fight for 'Gure-san?

 

Shigure: * pause* * suddenly appears in a cosplay outfight* I'm a senshi who defends truth and love! In the name of the Moon, I will punish you! * strike pose*

 

Ayame: *snicker*

 

Hatori: just..get off the stage. * chugs asprin*

 

Akito: I've been scarred for life! * cringe*

 

* Aya and Shigure drag Ritsu off stage, stage left. Meanwhile, Kureno enters from stage right, and stands center stage. *

 

Akito: * wave*

 

Kureno: * smile, wave, flips off Shigure behind his back*

 

Shigure: * backstage* oh, I forgot something. * runs out on stage, whispers something to Kureno*

 

Kureno: * pales* * whispers back* you wouldn't..

 

Shigure: * evil grin* I would. Don't forget, Kureno-san, I can change you from a rooster to a hen with one shot, so just do it and you won't get hurt. Besides, you need to tell Akito sometime, don't you?

 

Kureno: fine. * normal voice* yeah, yeah, I get it Shigure-san, thanks for the tip. I'm good now.

 

* Shigure runs backstage as the new music starts. N*Sync music*

 

Akito: * eyebrow twitchy*

 

Kureno: hey, hey, bye bye bye! I'm doin' this tonight, you're prob'ly gonna start a fight. I know this can't be right, hey baby c'mon. I loved you endlessly, and you weren't there for me, so now it's time to leave and make it alone. I know that I can take no more, it ain't no lie. I wanna see you out that door, baby bye bye bye!

 

Shigure: * snicker*

 

Hatori: * mutter* that idiot..

 

Akito: * grumble* that's it, I want a divore. I loathe boy-bands.

 

* music stops*

 

Kureno: thank you, I'll be here all week!

 

Audience: * laugh*

 

Uo: KURENO I LOVE YOU!!

 

Kureno: um I-I-I…* looks at Akito, thinks, throws the mircophone to Shigure who's entering from stage right.* ah, screw it! * hopps off stage, runs over to Uo*

 

Uo & Kureno: *SMOOCH*

 

Kureno: aishiteru, Uo-chan.

 

Audience: awwwww…

 

Shigure: Well, that's one problem solved.

 

Akito: she..SHE TOOK KURENO!! * struggle, struggle*

 

Hatori: get back here. * ties Akito down with duct tape*

 

Shigure: why didn't I think of that?

 

Hatori: because you're an idiot, now just sing your song.

 

* Craig David music*

 

Shigure: you're what I want, girl. You're what I need. I wanna taste ya, take ya home with me. You look so good girl, good enough to eat. I wonder if I could peel your wrapper, be your fantasy? C'mon. what's your flavor? Tell me, what's your flavor?..

 

All women in audience: * faint*

 

Hatori: … agghh! Hentai thoughts! Bad! Bad! Bad! * nose bleed* * stuff tissues up nose*

 

Akito: * having bad hentai thoughts* *smile* mmm…

 

Hatori: * glances @ Akito* *thinks* I don't want to KNOW what he's thinking.

 

* music stops*

 

Shigure: how was tha- * is bowled over by Kagura who is obviously eager for her turn in the spot light.*

 

Kagura: I'm ready!

 

Akito: we noticed.

 

Shigure: ow, I think I broke my spleen..

 

Hatori: somebody carry him off stage before he bleeds to death on nation television.

 

Akito: as opposed to bleeding to death OFF national television?

 

Hatori: * sweatdrop*

 

Kagura: is my Kyo-kun out there? * search, search* oh! I see him, he's on the catwalk! Kyo-kun! I'm going to sing a song full of my love for you!

 

Kyo: * hiding on the catwalk* damn, she saw me. Was it that obvious?

 

Yuki: of course it was, you stupid Cat.

 

Kyo: damn Rat!

 

Kagura: KYO-KUN!

 

Kyo: * freeze*

 

Kagura: there's no fighting on national television. * tsk, tsk*

 

Hatori: * sigh* are you ready Kagura?

 

Kagura: hai.

 

* Dixie Chicks music starts playing*

 

Kagura: if I fall you're goin' down with me, goin' down with me, baby, if I fall. Can't take back every little chill you give me, you're goin' down with me, heart and all.

 

Tohru: awwww, that's so sweet!

 

Shigure: awwww, that's so sweet, but I'm still bleeding.

 

* the music stops*

 

* Ritsu is still unconcious. Kureno and Uo are curled up in the back of the theater, smooching eachother's lips off. Shigure is still bleeding on stage while Kagura keeps an eye for Kyo who's probably found a new hiding place.*

 

Hatori: well, if you two are the only ones left, I guess you move on to the next round.

 

Kagura: YAY! *jump up and down, make noise* * goes off in search of Kyo*

 

Shigure: um..Ha'ri..first aid would be nice right about now…

 

Hatori: only if you promise me one thing.

 

Shigure: what? Anything Ha'ri, anything!

 

Hatori: promise me that you won't try to drag me fishing again this summer.

 

Audience: * laugh*

 

Shigure: do I have to promise that Ha'ri? You an' Aya an' me ALWAYS take a fishing trip during the summer!

 

Hatori: yes, promise me. Because if you don't, you can expect a fire hydrant for your birthday.

 

Shigure: allright, allright, I promise.

 

Hatori: well, I have to patch up this idiot, but join us next time for Furuba Idol. Our next contestants are Kyo, Tohru, and suprisingly, Akito. Just a reminder that the chosen so far are Yuki, Kisa, myself, Ayame, Shigure and Kagura. The next round will be duets or group participation, hopefuly no one's going to get killed by the time this fic is over. Review and vote for your favorites, the author needs suggestions. Thank you and good night.
