InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Songs to Remeber You By ❯ Voice on the Radio ( Chapter 1 )
A/N: The first song in this fic was one I had wrote a long time ago. Since them I've written way better things. But the name Tom was changed to Shippo for this fic. Also, Shippo is taller and slightly older in this fic. Also I don't know Kagome's last name so bear with me. That and the sure-to-be-found mistakes here. Know what - just skip over the first song, I beg of you - it's just too embarrassing.
-------------------------------------------
Kagome stood on platform. A the microphone in hand. She should be used to this by now. Her music had his number one in the first week. Yet she still got the jitters. Maybe it was because she was still dealing with the loss of Inuyasha.
(A/N: This song's music is found in The Sims after you get the Unleashed Pack. Look for SUL BAND3 M in the music folder.)
If you feel down
Don't ware a frown
I will be there
For you now
When you feel
All alone
You will know
Where to go
I'll be there
Only for you
Cause you're the one
Who will shine through
When you feel afraid
Don't worry about your day
When you need someone to talk to
Just know I'm right her with you
Oh, everything will be ok
Just when you think it's bad
Don't worry about the past
It won't come back to haunt you
Don't worry about the future
It's too far off to bother you
Oh, everyone is happy in the sun
Why don't you go out to play
Don't worry about the demons
That hide in the forest
No, you don't have to worry
I'll be watching right over you
You know I will
Oh, can't you feel me
Right over you
No worry
No pain
Come on, you know you'll be fine
You know it
Time to show it
Don't let the worry drag you down
Your safe with me hun
You think your in danger
Just call my name
You know I'll protect ya
So you don't have to worry
She turned to the Sax Player.
Play it Shippo!
You don't have to worry now
I will be here for you
You know I'm here
Don't worry
In the dead of night
The demons will try to
Get you in your sleep
But I'll be there for you
Oh, don't worry
All the bad dreams never seem to come true
Oh you know it's true
No need to worry
Everything's fine
I'm still here
As long as I'm here your fine
No one will take me away from you
You'll live with me forever
She finished and looked up at the recording director who sat in the glass booth. He gave her a thumbs up. God I hated doing that song. It sucks and it the worst thing I've ever sung. People are going to hate me for it. All cause of some god damn contract where I have to sing 6 pre-written songs within two months, ever three months.
Kagome sighed as she unlocked her car and got in. Starting up the engine she broke down.
Damn it. What happened to him? He was kidnapped and then nothing. No body, no ransom. Not even a trace. She looked out her window and up to the sky. Where ever you are Inuyasha, I hope your happy.

Radio Studio Next Town Over
---------------------------
"Ok and now we have an up-and-coming music star. He has white hear, a red hat, and can melt any heart with a guitar. Let's give a warm i-91 welcome to David Max. Welcome David and I have to say. You are cute in person." She Dj giggled at her own comment as David forced a smile. "And hello to you to."
"So what is this song your going to sing for us?"
"Well, there is this girl in my dreams and I don't know who she is. But I wrote a song about her and I'm willing to play it now if you want to hear it."
The Dj cooed at the thought. "Why not? What's the song called?"
"I call it Goodbye Girl."
"Well your going to hear it first ladies and gentlemen. Performing live from I-95, Goodbye Girl by David Max."
-------------------
Kagome's Car
-------------------
Kagome sat in the parking lot of the fast food place. A bag in her passenger seat with the large "M" on it told it's own story as she listened to the radio station. She had actually just turned it on.
"Performing life from I-95, Goodbye Girl by David Max." The Dj said into the microphone. Followed by, what Kagome thought of as, one of the most beautiful voices she had ever herd. The guitar playing was just as good.
All your life you've waited
For love to come and stay
And now that I have found you
You must not slip away
I know it's hard believing
The words you've herd before
But darling you must trust in me
Trust me just like before
Kagome's eyes widened. "It couldn't be him. After all this time?"
Baby goodbye
Doesn't mean forever
Let me tell you
Goodbye doesn't mean well never be together again
If you wake up and I'm not there
I won't be long away, oh
Cause all the things you do my goodbye girl
Will bring me back to you
"It is him. But why the name change?" Kagome thought as she got on the highway, heading for the city, and I-95.
I know you've been taken
Afraid to hurt again
You fight the love you feel for me
Instead of giving in
But I can't wait forever, Oh
I'm helping you to see
That I was meant for you my love
And you were meant for me
Kagome hit sudden traffic. "Damn it! Get out of the way!" She yelled.
Remember Goodbye
Doesn't mean forever
Just remember goodbye
Doesn't mean we'll never be together again
Though we may be so far apart
You'll still have my heart
So I'll be right back
My goodbye girl
Now you home at last
"Move it!" Kagome yelled. "Move your ass!"
Angrily beeping her horn.
Though we may be so far apart
You still have my heart
So I'll bring you back
My goodbye girl
Now you home at last
It doesn't mean forever
Goodbye doesn't mean will never be together
Goodbye doesn't mean forever
Will you remember goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye girl
"And that was Goodbye Girl by David Max. It's been a real big pleasure David. We hope to have you back soon."
"I hope so too."
"And now: Deep Forest by Do As Infinity, Another up-and-coming group."
Kagome yelled in frustration. "Wait. I might be able to catch him on his way out!" She pulled into the nearest parking lot and ran down the street until she got to the studio. She ran inside to the main desk. "Excuse me! I'm looking for David Max, I'm an old friend from out of town, is he still here!?"
"I'm sorry miss. He just left two minutes ago."
Kagome sighed in defeat heading back to her car. She turned it on just as another song came on.
"Your listening to the I-95 non-stop music hour."
Everybody's got something
They had to leave behind
Only grief from yesterday
That seems to grow with time
-------------------
The sun rose with great colors in the sky as Kagome looked out over the beach from her house.
There's no use looking back and wonder
How if could of been now
Or might of been
Oh, this in know but still I can't find ways to let you go
Kagome got into her car and headed for the studios.
I've never had a dream come true
Till the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
A part of me will always be
With you
Kagome began to cry.
---------------------------------
Across Town
---------------------------------
David sat at his kitchen table listening to the sad song as it played. Holding the Shikon no Tama in his hands. "I know this has something to do with my past… but what?" He yelled. Looking at the sword that hung in a case on his wall. "And that does too! You just don't wake up without a name or a past. It just doesn't happen."
Somewhere in my memory
I've lost all since of time
And too my broken never be
Cause yesterday is all that fills my mind
There's no use looking back and wondering
How it should be now or might of been
Oh, this I know
But still I can't find ways to let you go
I've never had a dream come true
Till the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
And I know
No matter where life takes me too
A part of me will always be
-------------------------
Kagome's Car
-------------------------
Kagome parked her car. She didn't try to get out. She let the radio played the song as she thought about Inuyasha.
You'll always be the dream that fills my head
Yes you will, say you will you, know you will baby
You'll always be the one I know I'll never forget
There's no use looking back and wondering
Cause love is as strange as fun it is
No matter how I try and try
I just can't say goodbye
No, no, no, no
I've never had a dream come true
Till the day that I found you
Even though I pretend that I've moved on
You'll always be my baby
I never found the words to say
You're the one I think about each day
And no matter where life takes me to
A part of me will always be
A part of me will always be
With you, oh
Kagome was startled when there was a knock on her window. She turned to see Miroku looking at her. She smiled a little as she got out of her car. Wiping away her tears. "Hay. Ready to record a hit?" She asked.
"Oh, no. Don't try that happy face on me. I know you were just crying."
"Busted." Kagome said under her breath.
"Mind telling me why?"
"I just feel like he is everywhere for some reason." Kagome said. Looking down.
Miroku put a hand on her shoulder. "Kagome, where ever he is he's happy." He pulled her into a hug. "Don't worry about it." He said. "Now, let's go inside."
She nodded as he slung an arm over her shoulder as they walked up the front steps of the large building. "Last night Sango punched me in the stomach while she was sleeping." Miroku said as he held the door open for her. "And I didn't even do anything." He said as it shut.
Kagome went up to the twenty-second floor. She smiled at the band players as she entered the green room. "So Sango, I herd you socked Miroku in your sleep." Kagome said. A smile playing at her lips.
"Yup. Thought I'm not even sure why."
"You probably just felt like it."
Sango shrugged. "Maybe."
Kagome stood up and addressed the group.
"Everyone, yesterday inspiration struck me. So I wrote a song. You guys think you can play it?" Kagome said with a smile, taking out sheet notes from her backpack. Collective and excited 'ya's' came from the group. She handed out the notes.
Shippo looked up at her after looking over it. "The melody sounds good in my head. I like it."
"Yah me too." Sango said. Miroku nodded and Koga did the same after the moment.
"Ok. Why don't we run through it." Kagome said. Going into the next room. A small line forming behind her to get through the door. As Kagome tuned her Guitar she thought about how Koga had been nicer to her since Inuyasha's disappearance. He stopped calling her 'his women' and began to call her by her name.
Sango picked up her Guitar as did Kagome. Koga got into his seat behind the drums and Miroku took his station at the piano. Shippo picking up a bass and testing it out. Kagome smiled tapping her foot, getting the beat back into her head. Sango quickly read over her words as Kagome began to play.
When you sooth my heart
And I'll give at that
But look me in the eye babe
Tell me why you love me like that
Why you love me like that, oh-oh
Sango joined in as Miroku played the harmonica sound on his 'high-tech' piano.
Well I walk that world
The times on the
And after all this walking babe
You've got me crawling on the floor
Crawling on the floor
And I know
This world
Keeps on turning
Keeps me earning
How, can you turn and walk away
Pretending everything's ok
How can you turn your back
Tell me why you love me like that
Why you love me like that oh-oh
Kagome smiled as she continued on. Liking the way it sounded. It sounded better than it did in her head - and she thought she had juiced it up.
Well I find you to listen
But I'm shattered like broken glass
Well I thought we'd be dear friends babe
Yah I thought that we would last
Yah I thought that we would last
And I know
This world
Keeps on spinning
Every minute that your in it
How, can you turn and walk away
Pretending everything's ok
How can you turn your back
Tell me why you love me like that
Why you love me like that oh-oh
And we are living maybe because of the beyond
With nothing like yours
Believe me I'm better off
I'm better off alone
Oh-oh
Well I was you gypsy
Throwing diamonds at your feet
Drifting around you like a satellite
I gave you everything in me
Everything in me
And I know
This world
Keeps on turning
Keeps me earning and yarning
How, can you turn and walk away
Pretending everything's ok
How can you turn your back
Tell me why you love me like that
Why you love me like that
Oh, how can you just break away
Why can't you find the words to say
Love is something you work at
Tell me why you love me like that
Why you love me like that
Why you love me like that oh
How can you throw us away
Look at what you lost today
Now everything's a shade of gray
Now you pushing me away
Say all the things you need to say
While we were going all the way
Play all the games you want to play
So that we can just fade away
Kagome closed her eyes as she finished the song. Not because she felt like it. She suddenly didn't feel good. She swallowed hard and kept her composure. Turning to the others. "I'm going to call it early today. Not feeling too well for some reason. See you guys later. Ok?"
---------------------------------------
Kagome sat on her couch, guitar in hand. She played mindlessly for a moment before launching into a song. She had kept this one to herself. She had wrote it about Inuyasha after his disappearance.
Every time I feel alone
I can blame it on you
And I do
You got me like a loaded gun
Golden sun and skies so blue
Oh, we both know
What we won't say
And we both know you
You left me alone
Oh, you just bring me down
So I'm counting my tears till I get over you
Sometimes I watch the world go by
Wonder what it's like
To wake up every single day
My alarm you face you never try
We both know we
We can't change it
But we both know
You'll just have to change it
You just bring me down
So I'm counting the tears till I get over you
If only I can give you, oh, what I want to let you
Out from this open wound baby
We both know we
That we won't let
That we both know
You left neutral
You just bring me down
Oh, So I'm counting till I get over you
We both know
That I'm not over you
La, la, la, la, la, la
I'm not over you
Ha, I'm not over you Inuyasha
Kagome jumped when she herd Sango's voice behind her.
"That was beautiful." She said.
"Sango?! What are you going here?"
"You weren't answering your cell and I have a key." She said. Holding up the golden key.
"Oh, right."
"Want to talk about it?"
"No. Not really."
---------------------------------------------
Inuyasha's House
---------------------------------------------
That voice is so familiar.
Live your dreams
It's not as hard as it may seem
You got to work to get the cream
All the hopes you must see
From your fears
You have to win yourself
It's all or nothing
Give it your everything
David smashed the radio. "Why the hell does that voice ring in my head? Why does it seem familiar?" He paused. A stray tear coming down his cheek. Quietly he said. "Why can't I remember."
He flicked a switch on another radio in his bed room. Just in time.
"The was Kagome Winterson singing Live Your Dreams."
Kagome Winterson… That name. "I have to find her." Inuyasha said. Grabbing his coat.
Inuyasha got into his car. Driving down the road calling his agent.
"This better be good. It's three in the morning."
"Rick, I need to know something. Which agency is Kagome Winterson hooked up with?"
"Uh… I think it was Hunter Music. Why?"
Inuyasha didn't answer him. He hung up the phone, dialing 411.
"Information. How can I help you?"
"Can you connect me with Hunter Music?"
"Is that a residential or business name?"
"It's a music agency."
"Just a moment."
After a moment there was a few rings. Followed by a hello.
"My name is David Max. I'm looking for one of your contract-ee's."
"Ok, sir. Can I have a name please?"
"Kagome Winterson."
"Ah yes. Do you need a phone number?"
"Please!"
"Ok. 555-7392."
David hung the phone up again. Calling 411 once again.
"I have an number I need an address." He said. Stopping at a red light.
------------------------
Kagome was fast asleep. When there was a knock on her door. She grumbled something while wrapping the large blanket around herself. She opened the door and immediately dropped the blanket. Letting her nightgown blow slightly in the wind and rain.
"Inuyasha!" She yelled hugging him as closely as she could. He didn't return it. She looked up into his eyes. "You don't remember me do you…"
He shook his head. "No. But your voice. Your scent. It's all familiar to me."
She sat him down at her kitchen table. He kept his hat on as she went through her cupboards.
"I was wondering when I would be able to make this for you again." She said. Pulling out raymen. David, turned, Inuyasha smiled showing off some fangs which he quickly hid.
Kagome giggled. "No need to hide them. I've seen them before." She said. Taking off his hat and rubbing the white ears she's longed to see.
Kagome put the bowl in front of him. She sat across from him with a cup of coffee. After a moment she asked. "So where have you been all these years?"
"I woke up one morning in an alley. From there I got a job and worked my way up the music industry. Just like you did."
"So you don't know anything about your past?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha shook his head. Kagome was restringing herself every little bit not to jump on him with hugs and kisses.
"Well, your name is Inuyasha. You're a hanyou. As you might of already known. We spent years gathering parts of the Shikon no Tama together in your era. After we finished you kept it to protect it. You came to live in my era with me. We were in love…" Kagome trailed off. "We were?" Inuyasha asked. Kagome nodded. "Oh, and you had the sword called… damn what was it called. I remember now it was called Tetsusaiga. It was one of your prized possessions."
Kagome looked at the beads the still hung around his neck. "I remember putting those on you. You never did let me take them off. Now I can't say si- I mean s-i-t without you crashing to the ground." She got up and stood behind him. Lightly scratching behind his ears. He leaned into her touch. "I wish I could remember… but it just doesn't come back."
Kagome sighed walking over to a large window. "But I do feel attracted to you. Maybe we could… try again?"
She smiled to herself. Not facing him. She began to sing.
"There's a low rock wall. By the cliffs of Mo-lore, runs down on the ground right up through the sea air. As a child I would climb to the stop of those stairs. And wish on the fall I was anywhere else."
She turned to face Inuyasha. Who looked at her in wonder.
"The farms and the valleys all ring with the stories of the men who built walls so as to be more alone. All that's left of them now is their fears and their bones. But their rocks they pulled up were all I've ever known."
Inuyasha put a finger to her lips.
"The rock formed my spirit. The rock fed my anger. The rock broke my heart like the waves of the sea. I tried hard to fight but it still grew inside me, this island, my island, the rock is in me."
Kagome nodded. Inuyasha continued.
"Hard was the ground in which this child grew. Unforgiving and cold was the home that I knew. But knowing the soil was no harbor for you made pulling up roots that much easier to do."
Kagome took her verse.
"Set sail pilgrims. Set sail to a new land. Set sail our future cause I'm going to find, find my, find my. The rock formed my spirit. The rock fed my anger. The rock broke my heart like the waves of the sea. I tried hard to fight but it still grew inside me, this island, my island, the rock is in me."
"The rock formed my spirit. The rock fed my anger. The rock broke my heart like the waves of the sea. I tried hard to fight but it still grew inside me, this island, my island, the rock is in me." Inuyasha sang.
Kagome added to it.
"Now It's been years since I've been in that place. And winds of my life have weathered my face. But it's only with distance and coming with grace that I see in you beauty I could never replace. The rock forged my spirit. The rock was my anger. The rock held me fast through the storms of my youth. Now you'll never die cause you live on inside me. On my life in everything."
Kagome looked up at him as she held him tight, realizing he was returning it. "Do you remember now? The past… our past."
She didn't get a response at first. But soon he leaned down and kissed her. "Yes… it's coming back." He said. "It's all coming back."
