A Musical Connection

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Chapter 1

 

Kagome sped through the busy street of L.A. California. She was your average girl. She had just recently graduated and gotten her degree in musical arts by the time she was twenty one, not to mention top in her class.

But it wasn't always like that.

Kagome's mother and sister had moved out after her mother and father got divorced. Her Father got her younger brother's custody and her mother got the girls. So, Kagome was forced to grow up in a house filled with girls.

When Kagome had turned 15 Hitome, kagome's mother remarried. That didn't go over to well. After the marriage was final he dropped his `lovey dovey' act and showed his true self. He would beat Hitome and harass the girl's day in day out.

By the time the girls were 17 Hitome had gotten a divorice and her girls moved away from their family home and bought a Shinto shrine; naming it sunset shrine.

Kagome's older sister, Kikyo disappeared some time later saying she got a job as a vidio editer, Much to Kagome's relief.

Kikyo never made things easier for her always teasing her and taunting her. Sure most sister do that but not to the point of tears.

Right after the divorce she blamed Kagome for every thing.

But that was behind her.

Now she lived with her best friend Miroku at a beach house on the shore line, with a perfect view of the sunset every night.

Kagome turned a corner at her intersection, glancing at the flyer in her hand to check directions; she pulled into the recording studio.

The parking lot was filled with expensive cars and cheap imitations.

Kagome slung her black and pink guitar over her shoulder and pushed her way though the crowds at the door.

She wore small leather skirt that reached mid thigh and a studded belt hung loosly off of it.Her shirt was a tank top that hung loosly on one shoulder,it was decorated in blue cyristals over the black fabric.

Once inside she took a number and waited for her number to be called.

This was probably her only chance at the big time.

When she had read the flyer someone had attached to her car window she almost jumped for joy. `Seeking Talent' it turned out one of the members of the “shattered jewel” had gotten pregnant and could no longer perform.

Just her luck…the band was the same band as her friend and roomate played in.

“Higurasi”

With a shake of her head she headed to the far doors at the end of the halls where the addions were being held.

The audition room was dimmer than the waiting room. The back wall of the room was cover in screens with a different color for each one.

To the front was a table where the band sat staring her down. At the end of the table sat a young woman her hair was up in clip with strand falling over her shoulders. Her outfit consists of a pink and black dress that went around her neck and revealed her back. In the front of each band member was a name plate hers read `Sango'.

Next to her sat the all too familiar Miroku. His hair was pulled to the nape of his neck easily. He wore a black shirt that read in purple writing: Hentai Warning duck for cover, and a pair of black shorts.

Continuing down the row was a young male in red. His shirt read: Aww crap you're trying to cheer me up again… in dingy writing. He to was wearing a pair of khakis.

But what caught her attention was his drool worthy eyes of ember and hair the color of the snow. His name plate read `Inuyasha'.

Finally the last of the row was another young woman. Her hair was pulled to the back of her head with chopsticks running though it. She wore a pink lose fitting tank top and a back skirt that reached her knees. Her stomach was slightly bulging signaling that she was in her first trimester of pregnancy. With a name plate of `Rin'.

“Alright let get this over with,” InuYasha growled lowly “What one more horrible untalented person”.

Kagome glared at the silver hair man but began her song any way. It was on of the ones she had written herself.

 

Once upon a time there was a girl

In her early years she had to learn

How to grow up living in a war that she called home

Never knew just where to turn for shelter from the storm

 

It hurt me to see the pain across my mother's face

Every time my father's fist would put her in her place

Hearing all the yelling I would cry up in my room

Hoping it would be over soon

 

The band stared in aw at kagome's voice and the emotion she showed with her song. Kagome plucked at the string of her guitar and became part of the song.Her eyes glazed over and she seemed lke she was in a trance.

 

Bruises fade father, but the pain remains the same

And I still remember how you kept me so afraid

Strength is my mother for all the love she gave

And every morning that I wake

I look back at yesterday

And I'm OK

 

I often wonder why I carry all this guilt

When it's you that helped me put up all these walls I've built

Shadows stir at night through a crack in the door

The echo of a broken child screaming, please no more

Daddy don't you understand the damage you have done

For you it's just a memory, but for me it still lives on

 

Bruises fade father, but the pain remains the same

And I still remember how you kept me so, so afraid

Strength is my mother for all the love she gave

Every morning that I wake

I look back at yesterday

 

It's not so easy to forget

All the marks you left along her neck

When I was thrown against cold stairs

And everyday afraid to come home

In fear of what I might see next

 

Bruises fade father, but the pain remains the same

And I still remember how you kept me so afraid

Strength is my mother for all the love you gave

And every morning that I wake

I look back at yesterday

And I'm OK

 

I'm OK

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kagome struck the final cord and finished off. She looked up to the band and narrowed her gaze on Inuyasha.

“How was that for untalented asshole?” Kagome said glaring at the hanyou.

“What did you just say to me!!?”

“You heard me…or are those ears on your head just for decoration?” Kagome sneered sarcastically.

Inuyasha's face was red with anger and looked like he was about to pop.

He growled a low threatening growl and jumped over the table. He growled again and stared at Kagome leaning in so their faces were inches apart.

“Listen bitch, No one talks to me like that and I'll be damned it I let some worthless Wench start. So if you were smart you would keep your trap shut and leave before I get really mad. That is unless you want to see if these claws are real.” Inuyasha said in a dark tone almost a whisper.

Kagome didn't back down she glared at him full force and said in plain English said: “Fuck you”

Inuyasha's jaw dropped and her blunt response….most women would be crying and screaming by now. Why not her?

“You see, I'm known for being bold and I don't give a shit what you think or don't think. I don't listen to anyone, like hell I'll listen to you.”

The group had watched the exchange with wide eyes. This has never happened before…no one was stupid enough or brave to stand up to Inuyasha but maybe Miroku and Kouga, but never someone of the opposite sex.Miroku was trying desperately trying not to laugh, if he knew Kagome she wouldn't leave until Inuyasha was black and blue.

“Okay…Kagome.” Miroku said in a warning tone, saying it was enough.

Pouting she turned and put her guitar back in its case.

“Well what did you guys think?” Miroku said “Personally I have to undoubtly say yes.”

Sango gave him a black stare “You're just saying it because she's wearing a skirt”.

“EWW!! Sango she's like a sister to me which reminds me…Kagome what are you doing with a skirt that short!!?”

“Whatever Miro.” Kagome said disdainfully

“I say yes” Rin said cheerfully beaming a toothy smile.

“Me too” Sango said satisfied Miroku wouldn't try anything.

“No fucking way!” Inuasha yelled loudly.

“To bad three out of four Inu, Which means she's in.” Sango said smirking a devious smile.

“Welcome to the band Kagome!your first Concert will be in a month to prepare you for it.” Rin said as she stood and welcomed Kagome to the band.

Kagome turned back to Inuyasha and smile a menacing smirk.

“Well I guess you better get used to me Dog-Boy.”

With a "Thank you" to the rest of the group she left and headed to her car.

Once she was in the parking lot she looked around to she if anyone was watching.Satisfied that no one was she let loose a high pitched squeal and jumped around in a circle doing her happy dance before she drove off.
