[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

Kagome Higurashi, a quadruple threat: singer, songwriter, dancer, and actress, has decided to go back to public school. With this transition, she gets to meet up with old friends. Kagome and her childhood friend, InuYasha Takahashi grow closer through music. All of a sudden Kagome's cousin, Kikyo Hakusho, a triple threat: singer, song writer, and model, arrives on the scene to reunite with her ex-boyfriend, InuYasha. Will the power of music keep InuYasha and Kagome together or will Kikyo tear them apart?

Disclaimer: I do not own InuYasha, and it truly sucks.


Kagome adjusted her headset after her short break. It was time to get back to the concert. She watched as the backup dancers made their way onto the stage. She smiled; this is what she loved, but going back to a more normal life wouldn't hurt. It's a good thing her manager agreed to let her attend a public high school. To him it was a publicity thing, but for Kagome it was her chance to reunite with her friends. Kikyo appeared behind her with a headset of her own on her head. She eyed Kagome.

"What's this I hear about you going back to school?" Kikyo asked.

"What?" Kagome questioned. "Stop asking crazy questions, we've got a song to perform. Let's go!"

Kagome grabbed Kikyo's arm and pulled her further towards the stage. Kikyo opened her mouth to speak, but the music started and she got into performance mode. The crowd cheered as Kagome and Kikyo walked down the center of the stage for the first fourteen seconds of the instrumental. (A/N:Kagome-italics, Kikyo-bold, both-bold/italics)

Why am I always hit on by the boys I never like
I can always see ‘em coming from the left and from the right

Kagome shrugged her shoulders as rehearsed to show that she required an answer to her question. She placed her hand above her eyes as she looked out into the crowd. Dropping her hand, she proceeded to point to the left and then to the right as her cousin walked around her.

I don’t want to be a priss, I just try to be polite
But it always seems to bite me in the –

Kikyo brought her hands up to cradle her head and dropped them slowly. She crouched down slowly at each word she sang. She stood upright as Kagome stepped beside her.

Ask me for my number,
yeah you put me on the spot

Kagome brought her hand up to her ear with her thumb and pinky like a phone. She brought her hands down and pointed at the stage to encentuate  the word"spot".

You think that we should hook-up,
but I think that we should not

Kikyo stepped around to stand on the opposite side of Kagome. Kikyo pointed into then audience and wagged her finger in the "no" fashion.

You had me at hello,
then you opened up your mouth

Kagome waved her hand with a slight smile. Taking the same hand, she made a mouth and had it move in a pac-man fashion. Kikyo stepped forward as two boys from the back up dancer group stood on either side of the two girls.

And that is when it started going south, Oh!
Get your hands off my hips,
‘fore I’ll punch you in the lips
Stop your staring at my— Hey!
Take a hint, take a hint
No you can’t buy me a drink,
let me tell you what I think
I think you could use a mint
Take a hint, take a hint
La, La, La….
T-take a hint, take a hint
La, La, La….

Kagome and Kikyo crouched down and stood up quickly. The boys each grabbed them by the middle and the two girls pushed them away and brought their hand up to them in a fist. Kagome and Kikyo turned toward each other and yelled at the opposite boy. They turned back to their own partner and threw their hands up at them. Kagome and Kikyo shook their heads at the boys and swayed their hips seductively. They both scrunched up their faces and fanned the air beneath their noses. The two girls turned and made their way back up the stage.

I guess you still don’t get it,
so let’s take it from the top

Turning to face the crowd, Kagome shook her head sadly and held her hand above herself.

You asked me what my sign is,
and I told you it was Stop

Kikyo smirked as she walked down the stage with a slight sway to her hips and froze, holding up one hand.

And if I only had a dime
for every name that you just dropped

Kagome placed her hand on her chest as she walked down the stage and pointed out into the audience.

You’d be here and I’d be on a yacht Oh!
Get your hands off my hips,
'fore I’ll punch you in the lips
Stop your staring at my— Hey!
Take a hint, take a hint
No you can’t buy me a drink,
let me tell you what I think
I think you could use a mint
Take a hint, take a hint
La, La, La….
T-take a hint, take a hint
La, La, La….

Kikyo pointed out into the audience and Kagome pointed at herself. Throwing their hands into the air, Kagome and Kikyo ran down to center stage as their previous partners joined them to repeat the chorus.


What about “no” don’t you get
So go and tell your friends
I’m not really interested
It’s about time that you’re leavin’
I’m gonna count to three and
Open my eyes and
You’ll be gone

Kagome forced her partner to walk backwards and Kikyo proceeded to do the same. The two cousins shook their heads. Kagome smiled and nodded her head vigoriously. Kikyo held up three fingers with a smile. The two girls pointed to the boys and fanned them away. Taking their cue, the boys tried to walk around the two girls. Kagome and Kikyo spun around and cut the boys off in their escape. They walked before them forcing them to walk backwards.

One.
Kikyo held up a single finger.

Get your hands off my—
Kagome snatched the boys hand away from her body.

Two.
Kikyo held up a second finger.

Or I’ll punch you in the—
Kagome brought up her fist.

Three.
With a smirk, Kikyo held up her third and final finger.

Stop your staring at my—
Both boys looked around the girls to get a glance at their backsides.

Hey!

Kagome and Kikyo pushed them away and walked towards center stage, purposefully. Turning to face the audience, the two girls swayed their hips to the music. They hopped about as they continued their performance.

Take a hint, take a hint
I am not your missing link
Let me tell you what I think
I think you could use a mint
Take a hint, take a hint
Take a hint Take a hint
Ohhhhh!
Get your hands off my hips,
'fore I’ll punch you in the lips
Stop your staring at my— Hey!
Take a hint, take a hint

Kagome and Kikyo landed their final pose and the crowed erupted into even louder cheers, if that were possible. Kagome smiled at Kikyo who returned the gesture. Hoping that their performance was a good enough distraction, Kagome blew the audience a kiss and the two girls bid them farewell. They left the stage and Kagome watched as Kikyo handed her equipment to the stage director.
