Chapter 6

Once the guys were ready to go, Kagome and her two friends were standing in the side of the stage. She got a smile from Inuyasha just before he turned to the audience and had the lights turn back on.

“Hey guys!” he yelled out at them.

The crowd went wild at the sound of his voice.

“We’re back!” he said in a sing song voice. When the crowd roared, he couldn’t help but laugh.

“You know, I think you guys may have waited long enough. Let’s just get to the music. My brother is going to take over lead for this one.”

With that the band started to play. Kagome was a little shocked to hear that Sesshoumaru was going to be singing the lead. ((A/N: You’ll get who sings what part… trust me. But the parts in brackets are Inu.)) S: I feel like I wanna smack somebody
Turn around and bitch slap somebody (bitch)
But I ain't goin' out bro (no, no, no)
I ain't givin' into it (no, no, no)
Anxieties bashin my mind in
Terrorizing my soul like Bin Laden
But I ain't fallin' down bro (no, no, no)
I won't lose control bro (no, no, no)
Shackle and chained
My soul feels stained
I can't explain got an itch on my brain
Lately my whole aim is to maintain
And regain control of my mainframe
My bloods boiling its beatin' out propane
My train of thoughts more like a runaway train
I'm in a fast car drivin' in a fast lane
In the rain and I'm might just hydroplane

M: I don't fear none of my enemies
And I don't fear bullets from Uzi's
I've been dealing with something that’s worse than these
That'll make you fall to your knees and that’s the   I: The anxiety the sane and the insane rivalry
Paranoia’s brought me to my knees
Lord please please please
Take away my anxiety
The sane and the insane rivalry
Paranoia’s brought me to my knees
Lord please please please
Take away my anxiety

S: My head keeps running away my brother
The only thing making me stay my brother
But I won't give into it bro (no, no, no)
Gotta get myself back now
God, I can't let my mind be Tell my enemy is my own
Gots to find my inner wealth
Gots to hold up my thoughts
I can't get caught (no, no, no)
I can't give into it now (no, no, no)
Emotions are trapped set on lock
Got my brain stuck goin through the motions
Only I know what's up
I'm filled up with pain
Tryin' to gain my sanity
Everywhere I turn its a dead end in front of me
With nowhere to go gotta shake this anxiety
Got me feelin' strange paranoia took over me
And its weighin' me down
And I can't run any longer, yo
Knees to the ground

M: I don't fear none of my enemies
And I don't fear bullets from Uzi's I've been dealing with something that’s worse than these
That'll make you fall to your knees and that’s the

Lord please please please
Take away my anxiety

Kagome had to admit she liked the song. It was definitely a new one though.   M: I don't fear none of my enemies

Kagome clapped so hard her hands started to hurt, but she didn’t care. That was a really good song, and by the sounds of things, she wasn’t the only one who liked it. She thought that it was now in her top ten list of songs she liked by them.

“I take it you guys liked my brother’s singing début?” Inuyasha asked.

The crowd gave a mighty roar, and Sesshoumaru bowed low. They even liked how formal the man seemed to be.

“They’re doing great!” Kaiya yelled.

Kagome smiled and nodded her head.

“For guys that only ever played in front of family, they sure love playing the crowd,” Toki said.

Kagome laughed. “It doesn’t surprise me. The only one I never saw that way was Sesshoumaru.”

Kaiya gave Kagome a funny look. “Why do you call him by his full name? He mush prefers Sess, though I tend to call him Kin, since it‘s the name he uses in public. And I like to remind all the old fogies we know of the fact that they have two names.”

Kagome laughed. “When I knew him, it was Sesshoumaru-sama to every one but us. I never called him that, but I did respect him enough to use his full name and not shorten it, even if it is a mouth full.”

“Well,” Toki said. “As long as you don’t use Rin’s nick name for him, you’ll do fine. The only ones to get away with that are Akiko and Juro.”

“Rin’s nick name? And who‘s Akiko?”

“Akiko is Rin’s other name,“ Kaiya said with a smile, and then leaned over so she could whisper in Kagome’s ear. “Her nick name for him is Fluffy.”

Sess turned when she said this and gave a growl. Inu just about chocked on his laughter. Luckily he wasn’t singing at that point, but was doing a guitar solo. Shippo and Koga just smiled. Miroku looked confused, but just shrugged and ignored it.

“Damn,” the girl said. “I forgot about that youkia hearing of his.”

Toki and Kagome laughed.

Kagome knew that it was going to be a long night, and that she wasn’t going to be studying, like she thought, tomorrow. $&$&$  

When the band finally finished with their last set, and they laughed when the audience tried to get them to do an encore, the boys finally got off the stage and to the back. The group made their way to the bands room, and made themselves comfortable on all of the furniture in the room.

Kagome sat on one of the two couches in the room, with Kaiya on one side, and Shippo on the other. She looked around at all of her old friends and smiled.

“Okay, since we have the time now, and none of really have to be anywhere, why don’t we answer any questions that Kagome may have?” Miroku said.

Kagome smiled. “I just wanna know how you all can be here with me right now. And how Kaiya and Toki could be Miroku and Sango’s children. Kaiya told me that you even have grand children…”

Sango smiled and pulled out her wallet. “Ya, three. Wanna see picture’s?”

Inu laughed. “I don’t think it’s the time Sango.”

Sango just shrugged and put her wallet back into her purse.

“I don’t even know where to start,” Shippo said.

“At the beginning would be a good idea,” Sess said.

Inu smiled and said, “I guess I should start then.

“After you disappeared right in front of me, I went a little nuts. I wouldn’t talk to anyone for the longest time.”

“Ya,” Shippo said. “When you got back to us and we asked where Kagome was, the only thing that left your lips was ‘She’s gone’. That was the last time we heard your voice for quite a while.”

Inu blushed, “Anyway. After about a month, Sango and Miroku got married. Kaede was the one to proceed over it. That was the one thing that brought me back to the world around me. And after that we all decided to keep traveling. Eventually we found that scroll that we told you about.”

“The one that told how to make you all look human?” Kagome asked.

Miroku nodded. “That would be the one. Speaking of which, why haven’t you guys taken off your anchors yet?”

Rin smiled from Sess’s lap and grabbed his hand. She slipped the ring on his ring finger off and put it into her pocket. Then she grabbed another ring from Sess’s front shirt pocket and put it on.

When she had slipped the first one off, Sess got his youkia features back. Kagome turned to see Koga take off a ring from his pointer finger on his right hand. Once it was off, Kagome saw the Ookami youkia that had pursued her in the past. Next was Shippo, he took off his golden loop and placed it into a box on the table next to him. He took out a silver hoop, and put that into the hole that had just held the golden one.

Ayame smiled and took a hair clip out of her hair, and there sat the female Ookami that had tried so hard to get Koga to marry her.

“I always miss this thing once I take it out,” she said.

Everyone laughed at the girl.

“What about you Inuyasha?” Kagome asked.

Inu shrugged. “I don’t ever take it off.”

Kagome was confused. “But I thought the spell wore on your energy.”

“It does,” Shippo said. “But because he used the chain that holds the Shikon no Tama, it tends to use the jewel’s energy instead. So the dog boy doesn’t have to waste energy like the rest of us.”

Inu growled. “You’ve been hanging out with Koga too much, Pup.”

Shippo grinned. “Shut up Dad.”

Kagome was shocked to hear that come from the kit’s mouth. “Dad?”

Inu bushed again. “Well someone had to take care of the brat once you left. And Sango was too busy with Miroku, so it fell to me.

“But we were telling you how we came to be here. So I’ll continue. When we got back to the village after a long trek through the villages in the area, we found Kaede sick. She told us that she was dieing, but was willing to use the scroll and show Miroku how to do the spell that was on it. She was good to her word, but passed on soon after. Once more I became enclosed in my own world. Kaede had been like family to me, and I didn’t like the idea of losing anymore family members. So one night a month later, after I was done grieving for the old baba, I took the Shikon and made a wish. I had no way of knowing how it would turn out, but I had to try.”

“The moron wished for the members of his pack to have his strengths, but none of his weaknesses,” Sango said.

“Hey! I thought it was a good wish at the time!”

Kagome smiled.

“Ya, and now we have all the strengths you do, not that I‘m complaining,” Shippo added. “But I still don’t see why I had to be included in this. I‘m already a full youkia!”

“Shut up Pup!”

“What do you mean you all have his strengths? And if you made a wish, why is the Shikon no Tama still here?” Kagome asked

“My wish wasn’t pure,” Inuyasha answered. “It was completely selfish. But the funny thing is, the silly jewel sees me as it’s owner for some reason. It puts a barrier around itself if someone tries to take it from me. I swear I even heard it talk to me when I made that wish.”

“Really?” Kagome asked. “What did it say?”

Inu smiled. “The silly thing told me to keep it protected until I could get it back to you.”

With that he grabbed the Jewel and took it from the chain. His spell didn’t even waver, but it was now pulling on his own energy rather then the Shikon no Tama’s.

When Inuyasha reached over to give Kagome the jewel, she let out a small gasp. She had notice two things, first being that his rosary was gone. She wasn’t sure where it was, but it wasn’t around his neck anymore. The second thing she noticed was what appeared to be a tattoo on his upper left peck.

“Inu?” Kagome asked. “Where’s your rosary?”

He just smiled and told her how he didn’t really remember what happened, but was told by the others that Kaede was the one to take it off after they got back from the battle with Naraku.

“She said that you may have been the only one that could use it,” Shippo continued, “but that any Miko could have taken it off. And that since you weren’t there anymore to even use it, there was no point on keeping it on the poor guy. He was subdued enough at that point.”

Inu growled at him for the last remark. Kagome just smiled.

“Kay,” Kagome said. “Next question. What’s that on you’re chest?”

Inuyasha opened his shirt slightly and looked down at his chest. “That’s something I’ll have to explain later in the story.”

Kagome still hadn’t gotten a good look at it, but figured he’d tell her in time.

“Then, please,” she said, “continue.”

“Aren’t you going to take the Shikon back?” Inuyasha asked as he noticed that he still held it in his hand.

Kagome smiled and reached for the jewel. She really didn’t want it, she had given it to Inuyasha. But if he wanted to give it back because it had told him to, then who was she to say no?

But both Inuyasha and Kagome got a shock when her hand came close to the Jewel. $&$&$  

A/N: The song in this chapter is Anxiety by The Black Eyed Peas. I really liked the song, and thought it would be a good one to have the three guys sing.
