next morning, Kagome walked up the steps to the house that her mom gave the address to. It was a large Victorian house. She heard music coming from inside. She walked up to the door and rang the door bell. The music stopped and she heard someone running towards the door. Scratch that, a stampede of people. The door was swung open and the 5 out of 6 people that were in her mom's office the day before stood in front of her. She smiled at Sango and said, "Hi Sango."
smiled,"Kagome, what are you doing here?"
replied," well, my mom came home yesterday and told me you were looking for a new lead singer. I asked if I could at least try out." She looked at the others. "Do you mind?"
one replied with either a "Sure, go ahead." "No prob." or " Not at all." Except for one. "Yes. We do mind."
looked at Inu with a slightly hurt expression that she put away quickly. "Well, Inuyasha, I take it. You are very out numbered here, so you should at least give me a chance. The others seem to want me to."
"humph"ed and walked away. The others moved out of the door way to let her enter. They led her to the basement where everything was. Kagome stared in awe at the many instruments. She noticed an electric guitar. "That's Inu's. Don't let him catch you staring at it for too long. He might think you'll try to gank it from him" Miroku said when he saw her staring at the guitar. (A/N : I like that word. Gank... It means steal or take, with the person's knowledge, and not return... Dunno if its spelled right... Dunno if its in the dictionary either..... ^_^ .....Ok.. Back to the story )
guitar had stickers all over it with various phrases like "Your band sucks" and " Beer Drinker" and "Pimpin' " . Sesshomaru's drums had stickers on it as well. one said, " A nice ass should be seen and not heard." Kagome giggled at the phrase while thinking of Inu and his attitude.
tapped her on the shoulder with a smile. Kagome turned to face her and the remaining others. Sango pointed out," Sess got that sticker especially for one person."
nodded her head, knowing the person it was for. "Is there any particular song you would like to hear?"
looked at each other and shook their heads. Sesshomaru said," But, if you could, pick a song that can hit the high points and low points of your voice."
nodded and took a minute of thinking to pick a song. She decided to go with Evanescence's "Hello"

" Playground school bell rings again
Rain clouds come to play again
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
Hello, I'm your mind giving you someone to talk to
Hello

If I smile and don't believe
Soon I know I'll wake from this dream
Don't try to fix me I'm not broken
Hello I'm the lie living for you so you can hide
Don't cry

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello I'm still here
All that's left of yesterday "

(A/N : Sorry. But Evanescence was the only one I could think of to hit strong high notes ^_^)
she finished, she looked at the others. They were gawking at her. She blushed and said, "It couldn't have been THAT bad."
shook her head," You're right.. It was THAT GOOD."
mouth dropped. She looked at her in disbelief. The others said, "She's in." harmoniously. Kagome blushed a deeper shade of red and coughed to try to hide it.
had been standing at the top of the stairs when she had started to sing. He stood with his eyes wide and mouth open. He couldn't believe it. This girl out did Kikyou at voice range. Kikyou couldn't hit hardly any of those notes. Then he grinned. Maybe he could get to like her.
said,"Congradulations. We got ourselves a new lead singer." She then pointed everyone out. "The drummer will be this big lugg here, Sesshomaru. Every one calls him Sess though. And occasionally 'Fluffy'. "Sango rested her forearm on his shoulder.
raised an eyebrow,"Fluffy?"
sighed and nodded< " because of my fluffy tail. Everyone wants to pet it for some reaons."
giggled and looked at the little child like fox beside Sango. "Hello. Who are you?"
little fox looked at her and grinned widely." I'm Shippou, but don't think that my size means I'm not older than I look. Im actually as old as most of my friends. I'm just short."
walking down the stairs laughed and said,"Yeah.. He's a midget." and laughed more.
glared at him. "Don't say that."
said," Why not? He knows I'm joking with him."
continued to glare at him until she felt something on her behind. Her face lost all expression. Sango screamed," You freaking HENTAI. Stupid idiot. I can't believe you. How could you do that. Rrraaah. That was Miroku by the way. The band pervert. I'm so sorry Kagome." Miroku laid on the floor, knocked out by Sango's hit.
gave a confused nod and said, "It's ok. I think. I just hope he doesn't do it again."
laughed more," That's a good one. He's gonna do for the rest of his life. Whether it be to you or to any other female that walks past him." He picked up his guitar and started playing.
walked over to the drums and started to play a beat to go along with it. Sango gave Kagome a peice of paper with some lyrics written on it. Kagome nodded and started to study the lyrics and the tempo of the drums along with the guitar. Then she started to sing.

"Silhouettes above the cradle hold me down
They won't let me go the wrong way
My mother taught me all the fables, told me how
In the end all the sinners have to pay
But...
don't wanna live like my mother
I don't wanna let fear rule my life
And I don't wanna live like my father
I don't wanna give up before I die

He worked so hard his bones are breaking
He wore them down but long ago he lost the feeling
His good intentions leave me shaking, show me how
I don't ever want to end up like he did
And...
don't wanna live like my mother
I don't wanna let fear rule my life
And I don't wanna live like my father
I don't wanna give up before I die
I have kids
I won't put any chains on their wrists, I won't
I'll tell them this
There's nothing in this world that you can't be if you want it enough
don't wanna live like my mother
I don't wanna let fear rule my life
And I don't wanna live like my father
I don't wanna give up before I die "

(A/N : That was Smile Empty Soul's 'Silhouettes' for those who didn't know. )
including the now awake Miroku, clapped. Even Inu clapped. He was suprised she did so well. He grinned at her when no one else was watching. Kagome looked at him with a blush on her face. She turned to Sess. "May I use your phone?"
nodded and said,"It's this way. You can follow me."
stood up."No, Sess. I'll do it."
looked at him."I thought you didn't like Kags."
replied,"Well... I'm going to have to put up with her now no matter what, so I might as well get to know her before I start making opinions."
gave him a deathly glare and just turned her head. 'I know he's up to something. But I don't know what it is.'

: Well, that's it for this chapter. Hope you liked it.
