"She quit." InuYasha said as he stalked wearily into the large livingroom. He held a small paper in his hand, which he promptly thrust under a young woman's nose. Her name was Sango and was one of what was once four band members. A dark haired boy named Miroku sidled over to see what all the fuss was about. Kikyo, their second guitarist, had finally quit the group after breaking up with InuYasha, the lead singer and guitarist.
"My god..." Sango breathed as she read the furiously scribbled note.
"What the hell are we gonna do know, huh? We're short one guitarist less than a month before the tour starts. Do open auditions?" InuYasha said sarcastically as he ran clawed hands through his long white hair. Miroku merely sighed and flopped down onto the large couch.
"You know, you don't have a bad idea there, InuYasha." Sango grinned, making the taller boy worry. He was being sarcastic and hadn't meant what he said.
"Aw, shit." he said after seeing the gleam in her eyes. It would be a long day tomorrow if she had her way.

Kagome Higurashi sat lazily in front of the tv, still in her pajamas. She quietly munched her breakfast, which consisted of a leftover slcie of pizza that she had heated up in the microwave. She was all alone in the shrine house since her mother had left to take her granpa to visit an old friend that was in the hospital and her brother Souta had spent the night at a friend's house. He still hadn't come home; the other boy probably had some new video game they were playing. Suddenly a reporter interrupted the usual stream of morning rock videos with some kind of news.
"Hello and I'm Akiko here with breaking music news. Kikyo, second guitarist has quit the Tamas. After a long breakup with boyfriend and lead singer and guitarist, InuYasha, the girl has decided to leave the group forever. No one is clear on why the breakup occurred as neither party has agreed to comment on the situation. Today the Tamas will be holding open try outs at the Tokyo Suites hotel. Anyone with guitar experience can try out. Now back to your regular programming."
Kagome gaped openly at the screen. She had just finished her third year of high school and still didn't know what she wanted to do with her life once she graduated. Her mother said being a musician would probably never pan out and she didn't want her daughter flipping burgers at WacDonalds while she waited to be 'discovered'. Maybe this was her big break! She loved the way the Tamas played and had learned a lot of their music. Kagome shot out of her seat on the couch and up to her room.
After some debate, she decided on an outfit. She had put on a red plaid skirt with fish net hose and black boots. For a top she had pulled out a red t-shirt with cap sleeves in a matching plaid. Near the hem there was an inscription that read 'Make a break for Freedom. A thin silver chain ran across her chest, connecting to the sides of the neck. She pulled her hair up into spiky buns on each side of her head and then looked in the mirror, satisfied with her slightly punky image. She wore no makeup as usual, everyone called her a natural beauty.
Kagome picked her guitar and put it into its black cloth case. The guitar was her baby; she had spent months working up the money to afford it. The base was a red that matched her shirt perfectly, the pick guard a shining black. Each knob was a matching black. She hefted her case and headed down the seemingly endless steps to the street after dashing off a short note to explain where she had gone. Kagome jumped into her car, placing her instrument in the back seat, and sped off to the audtions.
hope you like it so far
