Dis: I own… my candles… this computer… Well you get it.

 

A/N: Hey everyone. The original version of this is on ff.net. Don't read that one. It sucks. But I will be using plot lines/jokes and such from it. It'll just be better.

 

My names Devyan. The two characters in this story named Alex and Mischa are property of me. Don't steal them. If you really want to use them just ask nicely and if I say yes gimme some credit.

 

One- And the Winner is…

 

Ayame Ookami, Rin Takaya, Kagome Higurashi, and Sango Taijia. Best friends since 5th grade. Now high school seniors and the members of the band known as Sakura Coloured Skye.

 

The story begins at the house of Sango Taijia. The red head known as Ayame fell back onto Sango's bed with an exhausted sigh. “Kags and Rin will be here soon.” Ayame told her friend. “Are you ready?” Ayame asked. Sango ran her fingers through her dark brown tresses. “I was born ready.” Sango replied.

 

Down stairs a door slammed. “Sis! Your friends are here!” Kohaku, Sango's brother, called. “Thanks Kohaku send them up!” Sango called back not bothering to get up. Kagome and Rin burst into Sango's room looking breathless. “Are you guys ready? I wanna do this!” Rin exclaimed.

 

“You're not going to be able to sing if you're already out of breath.” Sango pointed out. Kagome took several deep breaths. “We're all right.” She promised. “Well then let's go.” Ayame said pushing herself off the bed and heading to the garage.

 

“Hey can I come listen?” Kohaku begged. “Not right now Kohaku. We need to record our tape.” Sango told him. Kohaku pouted. “Fine. When you get famous I'll be bringing out those copies I made of your diary.” Kohaku shrugged and crossed his arms.

 

“Kohaku you little-” Rin slapped a hand over Sango's mouth. The last thing they needed was for Kohaku to start swearing in front of his mom and Sango getting in trouble. “Kohaku this is really important right now.” Kagome said leaning forward and putting her hands on her knees.

 

“How bout if you let us do this now, we promise to do a special concert for you later. Kay?” Kagome said smiling. Kohaku thought for a minute then nodded. “Thanks Kagome!” He exclaimed racing back upstairs.

 

Rin let out a scream. “What the hell?” Ayame asked looking at them. “She bit me!” Rin exclaimed glaring at Sango. “She freaking bit me!” Ayame grinned and Kagome bit back laughter. “You should have moved your hand.” Sango said simply before walking out to the garage.

Ayame pulled her guitar over her head and Rin started the recorder. “This is Ayame Ookami, Rin Takaya, Kagome Higurashi, and Sango Taijia.” Sango said. “And we are Sakura Coloured Skye!” The announced together.

 

Sango: Ah yeah that's right
All you single people out there
This is for you

Ayame: I'm not waitin' around for a man to save me
Cos I'm happy where I am
Don't depend on a guy to validate me
No no
I don't need to be anyone's baby
Is that so hard to understand?
No I don't need another half to make me whole

Rin: Make your move if you want doesn't mean I will or won't
I'm free to make my mind up you either got it or you don't

Kagome: This is my current single status
My declaration of independence
There's no way I'm tradin' places
Right now a star's in the ascendant

Ayame: I'm single

Right now
That's how I wanna be
I'm single
Right now
That's how I wanna be

Rin: Ah yeah Uh Huh that's right

Sango: Don't need to be on somebody's arm to look good

I like who I am
I'm not saying I don't wanna fall in love 'cos I would
I'm not gonna get hooked up just 'cos you say I should
Can't romance on demand
I'm gonna wait so I'm sorry if you misunderstood

Kagome: This is my current single status
My declaration of independence
There's no way I'm tradin' places
Right now a star's in the ascendant

Rin: Everything in it's right time everything in it's right place
I know I'll settle down one day
But 'til then I like it this way it's my way
Eh I like it this way

Ayame: Make your move if you want doesn't mean I will or won't
I'm free to make my mind up you either got it or you don't
'Till then I'm single

Sango: This is my current single status
My declaration of independence
There's no way I'm tradin' places
Right now a star's in the ascendant

 

Rin reached over and shut off the recorder. “Amazing.” Ayame said breathlessly. “That was really good.” Kagome agreed nodding. “It didn't suck.” Sango said looking pleased. “Well let's go turn it in. I'm driving.” Rin told them.

 

Ayame glanced around. “Shotgun!” She called running out towards the car. “No way! That doesn't count!” Kagome said racing after her. “Wow. No ones done that since what? 8th grade?” Sango asked a smiling pulling at the corners of her full lips.

 

Rin smiled and shrugged. “Aya will never grow up. It's one of her charms.” She said heading to the car. “What's Kagome's excuse?” Sango asked skeptically. Rin grinned. “She was destined to be blonde.”

“All right we shop for a while then we get to see if we win.” Rin said happily as they stood outside the music store. “Don't get cocky Rin. The chances are like 1 in 50,000.” Kagome said.

 

“Heh. Like anyone would pick that garbage you call music.” Said an amused voice. “I'd know that voice anywhere.” Sango sighed. The girls turned to face Inu-Yasha Dareshi. “If it isn't Dog Breath.” Sango said her arms akimbo.

 

“Our chances are 50,001 if you entered.” Ayame said cattily. Sango coughed slightly. Ayame was quite for a moment. “Oh… I was suppoused to subtract one wasn't I?” She asked.

 

Rin nodded with a forced smile. “Um… yeah.” She said. “Oh no Miroku! The cherry girls are going to hurt us with there bad math! Hide me!” The silver haired male laughed. “Oh go fuck yourself.” Rin hissed.

 

“Rin they do that anyway… well each other at least.” Sango said thoughtfully. An older man grabbed Inu-Yasha's shirt collar. “Can we try not to get kicked out please?” He questioned.

 

“Shut the fuck up Sesshomaru!” Inu-Yasha exclaimed struggling to get free. “Come on.” Kagome said finally. “We wanted to shop let's not let them get in the way alright?” She asked pulling her friends towards a near by store.

Several shopping bags later the girls decided to break for lunch. Ayame was in the lead and suddenly fell forwards. “What the hell? “She demanded scrambling to her knees and grabbing the things that fell out of her bag.

 

“What are these?” Asked an icy eyed male holding up an incredibly small looking pair of shorts. Ayame snatched them from his hand blushing. The color of her face was frighteningly close to the color of her hair.

 

“You evil bastard.” Ayame muttered finally standing up. “Why thank you.” He replied with a lopsided grin. Sango grabbed Ayame's arm preventing her from hitting the jerk like he deserved. Ayame struggled but Sango was obviously stronger.

 

“You're lucky Koga.” Rin said as Sango drug Ayame away. “Oh, why's that?” He asked. “If it weren't for the fact we need to hear the contest announcements, Sango would have let her at you.”

 

Koga raised his eyebrows. “Let's go eat.” Kagome said to Rin.

“We will now play the songs of the two winners!”

 

Kagome tossed down her chopsticks. “I can't eat. I'm too nervous.” She muttered with her head in her hands. Rin nodded crossing her fingers. Ayame started chewing her nails and Sango took deep breaths.

 

“Ah yeah that's right
All you single people out there
This is for you”

 

Kagome's head jerked up and Rin gasped. Sango's eyes went wide and Ayame screeched and started tugging at Sango's arm. “Come on! Come on come on come on!!” She shouted jumping up out of her chair.

 

The girls skidded to a halt in front of the record store. “What the hell are you doing here?” Inu-Yasha demanded glaring. “Claming our winnings what are you doing here?” Rin demanded.

 

“The same.” Miroku said eyeing Sango.

 

“Yes, yes the two bands Sakura Coloured Skye and Demon Blood will travel together on a world wide tour!” The manager exclaimed happily. “Wait we have to travel with them?!” Inu-Yasha demanded. “It can't be worse than traveling with you little brother.” Sesshomaru said dryly.

“Have to travel with those self absorbed jerks.” Ayame muttered darkly as she double checked her room to make sure she hadn't left anything. “Laptop, cell phone, diary, clothes, toothbrush, wallet, book. Yup I'm set.” She nodded.

 

“Aya you're ride is here!” her grandfather called. Ayame grabbed her bag and raced down the stairs. She hugged her grandfather tightly. “Take care. Eat well. Make sure you take your pills.” She reminded him.

 

He laughed. “You're the one running off to become famous. I should be reminding you of things.” He said laughing. “Don't worry grandpa. I'll be okay. I'll call you and I'll write.”

 

She hugged him one last time before racing out the door. “She'll find it.” He muttered smiling.

 

“Hello Miss Ookami. My name is Myoga I will be your driver.” The short man told her. “Nice to meet you.” Ayame said politely. “You can go choose a room. We'll pick up the others and your manager and then we're off.” He said nodding. Ayame nodded. “Alright.”

 

Ayame found one of the larger rooms upstairs and threw her stuff on the bed. She walked back down to the main area and lit a cigarette. Myoga made a face at the scent of the smoke.

 

The bus halted as they reached Sango's house. Sango clambered onto the bus grinning. “Hey!” She exclaimed happily. “Aya I thought you quit.” Sango said indicating the cigarette. “Bite me.” Ayame replied. “All right just give me one.” Ayame laughed. “Go pick a room and I'll give you one.” She promised.

 

Sango took a larger room downstairs and one of Ayame's cigarettes. Rin and Kagome boarded together seeing as they lived next door to each other. Kagome yelled over the cigarettes as Rin lit one as well.

 

Kagome and Rin both took rooms downstairs much to Ayame's protest. “That's not fair!” She exclaimed. “The guys'll be by me!” She screeched. After much laughter Kagome moved her things upstairs across the hall from Ayame.

“DEMON BLOOD FOREVER!” Inu-Yasha shouted loudly. “Lower the decibels brother.” Sesshomaru said blankly. “I LIKE THE DECIBELS WHERE THEY ARE DAMMIT!” Inu-Yasha shouted.

 

“Yeah… I like Deco-Belle too!” Koga slurred happily as he sank onto the sidewalk. “Gods their drunk.” Miroku muttered. Sesshomaru grabbed Miroku by the collar. “Did you let them do this?” He demanded.

 

Miroku swallowed nervously and shook his head. “N-No ma'am! I mean No sir! I meant Sir!” Miroku exclaimed. “Then why are they drunk?” Sesshy asked narrowing his eyes.

 

“A-cuz we had assess to liq- lick- licky- drinks!” Inu-Yasha exclaimed. “Ohh! Looks!” Koga exclaimed pointing to the large bus. “Pretty.” He muttered as his eyes began to droop.

 

Inu-Yasha clambered onto the bus and collapsed in the living room area laughing like a small girl. Sesshomaru took his things and threw them in the closest room. Miroku and Sesshomaru both stowed their things away and then helped Koga into a room where he instantly fell asleep.

 

“Now we'll go pick up Miss Mai. You're manager.” Myoga told them. Kagome bustled about the kitchen running to her room and bringing back jars occasionally. “Here” She said pouring to mugs out. She handed one to Sesshomaru and one to Miroku.

 

“Have Inu-Yasha and Koga drink those. That way they can make a decent impression on our manager.” She explained kindly. Miroku went upstairs right away but Sesshomaru stared at her. “How do you know this recipe?” He asked recognizing it instantly.

 

“I'm a miko. My friends like to party. 2 plus 2 equals 4 right?” She smiled slightly and went to find Rin and the others.
