The pairings I have so far are: (I haven't though hard yet)

Ban/Kag (duh)

Miro/San

I'll post my summary here in case it gets cut off! Sorry, but I have this weird habit for making people dance on heads in my a/n/s and I'm WAY over-attracted to bishounens with big sword-like things and Grip! People say I'm weird and funny. Do you think I'm weird or funny? I don't really pay attention in L.A! (that was random…) (does 'am I weird and funny?' dance on Bankotsu and fluffy's head) (I have no clue about bankotsu. Minimal info. HELP ME WITH ANY INFO YOU HAVE! IF YOU DO, I WILL DEDICATE LATER CHAPTERS TO YOU!) MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (SORRY, I NEEDED A WEIRD MOMENT, MY EVIL LAUGH WASN'T WORKING GOOD TODAY…) O.O WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Bankotsu (if you've read my other fic, you'll know his nickname is 'Kotsu): You're WAY too hyper. Kinda like the time we got sugar high! (bounces off walls in sugary remembrance)

Sesshomaru (sesshy or fluffy): Ugh! God was cruel enough before! Not this fic too… (gets candy stuffed in mouth "heretrysome!" ('kotsu)) OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHH! WHATCHA-CALL-THIS-STUFF? ITS-REALLY-YUMMY! YUM-YUM-YUM-YUM! (bounces off walls too)

Me: Oh dear, two nice sexy Bishounens hyped up on candy. Oh well, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em! (eats sweets galore) THIS-IS-FUN! FUN-FUN-FUN! COME-ON-LETS-GO-ANNOY-KAGOME! (falls off wall on head) I'mokay,justalittlebraindamage,butihadthatbefore! (I'm joking -)

(kagome shoots purifying arrow at fluffy)

Fluffy: GAHHHH! HMM…. YUMMY! (eats kagome's arrows and turns green and falls over)

'Kotsu: someonecall991! (does 'fluffy's green' dance on my head)

'Kotsu: can'tbreathe! (turns blue and falls over) (falls on me "ahhhhhh!'kotsu!cutoffthesweets!I'msquished! (cries)")

Naraku: MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (hops around in baboon suit thingie) MY FOES ARE HYPERVENILITATING! Ooooooohhhhh! What's this? (eats candy and hops around in baboon suit thingie) (does 'I'm a baboon' dance on the ceiling)

Kagome: (everyone does the moonwalk on ceiling) ok… just… keep reading? YA, THAT'S IT! Keep reading while we wait for 991… I mean 911! Ugh… hey! What's this? (holds up candy) (eats it) uh-oh! (gets over hyper too) WHEEEEEEEEEEEE!

(wow, that took a while O.o)

SUMMARY (sucks): Kagome, a lonely, quiet girl, has never spoken, and believed to be silent, is a choreographer, music arranger, and lyricist for her brother's band. But one day, she finds her voice, and there's no stopping her! Turning her solitary life around, Kagome becomes spunky and takes care of her appearance and talents, changing her from invisible to noticeable in a flash. Her brother, Sesshomaru is in a band, and recommends her immediately to his bandmates. Bankotsu, the (sexy bishounen!) guitarist, begins to fall for her and her ways. Will she turn up this chance of a lifetime for a life of solitude, or will she join in and surrender to love?

Warnings: swearing, violence, situations unsuitable for little kiddies, some out-of-character-ness (so sorry, but its necessary, 'specially for 'kotsu (I have no idea 'bout 'im!)), lots of inu yasha opening and closing songs! (I'm still thinking about other warnings!) oh yeah. Overdose of adjectives. (CURSE THE L.A. TEACHER! SHE SMILES WHEN SHE SAYS EVERYTHING. IT SCARES ME!) takes place in modern era. (not sure about feudal era!) (there's a dictionary at the bottom)

Disclaimer: Sesshomaru: This Sesshomaru is tired of waiting. Wench, hurry up with the story!

darkenedmoonlightflame: (sobs loudly) You probably don't even like it or wanna read it! (bawls)

Sesshomaru: (in happy voice) Actually, this Sesshomaru was waiting anxiously for this chapter! (covers mouth and eyes bulge) that came out wrong! This Sesshomaru spits in disgust as you type!

darkenedmoonlightflame: (rolls eyes) you gotta stop talking in 3rd person… Here, say the disclaimer.

Sesshomaru: This wench… (me whackie him) I mean darkenedmoonlightflame doesn't own my stupid half-brother… (me whackie him again) I mean Inu Yasha. (or his stupid songs) (me whack him)

And now presenting: (does shifty eyes) (with no further evil hyperventilating baboon attacks) MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! (naraku flies off the ceiling and attaches to my head) Aaaaahhhh! Get 'im off! Get 'im off! (runs around and around hitting head)

Grip!

Chapter One

Mezameyou Kono Shunkan Wo; Never Put Your Hand in Front of A Singing Assassin

Swaying gently in the soft breeze, the bright emerald green leaves and pure white blossoms drifting aimlessly through the warm air, coming to a peaceful rest at the foot of an ancient shrine on the outskirts of the bustling and noisy city, Tokyo, Japan. Suddenly, ear-splitting music blared in full force from the once calm and tranquil backyard of the Higurashi family shrine, causing innocent passerby to shake their heads sadly at the lost of silence and mutter, "They're at it again! I don't know how on Earth Mrs. Higurashi can stand them!" These downcast citizens were referring to Mezameyou Kono Shunkan Wo, the serene neighborhood's band, an all-boy group formed by the neighborhood male teens, who immensely bored by the eternal and perpetual silence. The rebel band had originated when the Higurashi's elder son, Sesshomaru, a handsomely deadly inu demon with piercing amber eyes, formed an alliance with Bankotsu, a heart-stopping blue-green eyed assassin, to agree to team up and form a band. So, fanning out across the neighborhood, they carefully and painstakingly selected each and every one of their bandmates. There was (much to Sesshomaru's dislike) Inu Yasha, Sesshomaru's half-brother, a boy with the same metallic silver hair, if not a shade or two lighter, golden amber eyes, which truly gave a new meaning to 'windows of the soul', who played low bass. The violinist, Kouga Yorozoku, had long, flowing, silky ebony hair he often wore tied up into a high ponytail, icy blue eyes that felt as though they could see into your very soul, and a tanned and striking face. Odd for a violin to be in a band, ne? But 'his baby' was special, and had a clever plug-in which, with a step of his foot, could change the violin's sound to guitar, trumpet, and such. Miroku Hoshi, the drums. His fairly short shimmering black hair was usually tied back into a dragon's tail at the nape of his neck, deep violet eyes very all-seeing and cleverly sly, sneaking peeks at women and sometimes, blaming his cursed hand for "touchie-feelie" incidents. He always got clobbered, in particular by Sango Taijiya, an intelligent, good-looking girl with a "Nice Hot Ass," as Miroku put it. Leaving the positions of guitarist, keyboard, and of course, the singing was vital. The normally cold Sesshomaru took up the position of guitarist two, exposing his very passionate side by constantly practicing and committing all the songs to memory, as did the other band members. Bankotsu, the more experienced guitarist (he had been playing since he was five), took it upon himself to be guitarist one. His deep ebony locks were braided often, leaving a fringe of slightly pointed bangs around his face, which bore an odd indigo-violet pointed cross on his forehead, slightly above his dark blue-green eyes. Interesting that there was indeed a specific part assigned for a keyboard, yet no keyboard player. There was even the melody for keyboard. The singing was done by everyone, their voices blending into interesting mixes of harmony, melody, bass, and such. But they felt as if something was missing, especially in the slower melodies.

You may very well ask who came up with the song, music, and lyrics, and the surprising answer was Kagome Higurashi, Sesshomaru Higurashi's younger sister, who had never spoken to anyone. She had long, silky raven colored hair, deep cerulean-emerald green eyes, and a perfect body, which was usually covered with moderately loose and baggy clothes. She had a whole hoard of songs and lyrics, which she had written and arranged, ever since her onii-sama had founded a band with a neighbor of theirs. She often played keyboard in private, but once Sesshomaru caught her at it, and he just stared stupidly with his jaw open as he watched his sister play the songs on the keyboard flawlessly, before demanding her to be in the band. But she shook her head no for some unknown reason, so therefore the keyboard parts were promptly ignored, and it remained an all-boy band.

Anyway, jumping back to the present, the boys were at the minute practicing one of Kagome's songs, Owari Nai Yume (Never Ending Dream), their instruments rather unsure what to do. Sighing heavily, Kagome shook her head as her brother floundered around, walled in by papers, searching for a "missing" page. Striding slowly toward the unplugged keyboard, she reached down, and snatching the thin, snake-like cord of the keyboard, jammed it not-too-lightly into the electric plug. Yanking the pedal cord, she slid the pedal out of nearly five feet of paper. Rolling her eyes, she gave Sesshomaru a little kick, nodding toward the black guitar with multi-colored flames painted boldly on it, and the Japanese characters for 'Sesshomaru' engraved into it. A smirking grin popped onto his face, and he stated arrogantly to his fellow band members, "Ha! This Sesshomaru was right! She can play, she just said no," Shaking their heads at the "over-protective-brother-ness" of the whole situation, and due to the fact everyone except Sesshomaru nudged him, Bankotsu replied, "She arranges them on the computer, and downloads it onto there," and henceforth an argument of what Kagome did to the keyboard started. "Just get the bloody instrument!" yelled Miroku, rapping Bankotsu on the head with his drumsticks before flinging one at Sesshomaru, who caught it angrily and flung it back, therefore starting World War III.

Watching as her brother clawed and growled at his band mates, Kagome turned up the keyboard to the highest volume, and smacked her arms down, and the deafening noise made the boys cringe unhappily. "See! Now shut the hell up!" said Kouga, who had stood by and watched them clobber each other, strumming his violin nonchalantly. Muttering, the band members seated themselves back in their former spots, awaiting Kagome to press play. But she didn't. Instead, she rolled up her long, gray sweatshirt sleeves, leaving the hood shadowing her face up, flicked the small red switch up, and started to play, letting the melody fill the air. Cocking an eyebrow at Sesshomaru, he got the silent message to sing the lyrics. Shaking his brain clear of the argument, he let the music take over his soul, and he began to sing in his fairly low smooth voice.

Owari Nai Yume (Never Ending Dream)

Kokoro no naka no JIORAMA no machi wa

Kibou no hikari de kirameite iru

Kagerou no hane de habataita yume wa

Kimi to boku to no sagashimono

Shinjitsu wa itsumo

Hitomi ni hisonde iru aoku

Catching the beat, Miroku joined in with the silver-haired inu demon, his alto voice complimenting both of them. Bopping his head to the catchy beat, Kouga joined in shortly after Miroku, his voice a tiny bit higher than Sesshomaru's, but a little more toned, due to 'his baby', which joined in as well as the drums and guitar two.

Bokura wa doko made yukou

Futari no mirai ima sasuratte

Bokura wa tabi o tsuzukeru

Eien no arika owari nai yume

Kono te o hanasazu oikakete ikitai

Zutto

Being highly stubborn, Inu Yasha frowned unhappily, but eventually joined in, letting his 'slightly lower than Miroku's' alto voice drift into the song, before adding in more fully, singing loud and proud and rocking on his low bass guitar.

TAAKOIZU iro no kokoro no umi de

Hikari no fune no aizu ga kikoeru

Hayaku ikanakya hayaru omoi ni

Nani mo kotoba wa iranai ne

Itsuwari wa itsumo

Kotoba ni hisonde iru amaku

Futari de hitotsu ni narou

Okubyou na nami no ho mo dakishimete

Bokura wa tabi o tsuzukeru

Dakiau sukima

Owari nai yume

Niji o tsukinuketa

Yakusoku no hikari o mezasu

Sighing in defeat, Bankotsu resigned himself to fate, and the catchy tune, letting his amazing voice blend in with the others, his guitar skills coming out again as he lost himself in the song.

Bokura wa doko made yukou

Futari no mirai ima sasuratte

Bokura wa tabi o tsuzukeru

Eien no arika owari nai yume

Kono te o hanasazu oikakete ikitai

Zutto

Strumming his flamed guitar a final time, Sesshomaru glanced over at Bankotsu and noticed he was still singing, his melodic voice ringing through the air with his guitar. Clearing his throat and stepping in front of the assassin, Miroku waved his hand in front of the tan face experimentally. "Ya!" hopping around from foot to foot, Miroku glared daggers at the dazed assassin, who had stopped singing, and blinked dumbly. "What?" he asked as everyone looked at him and started laughing (except for Kagome, who had a grin on her shaded face). "You frickin' bit me!" Miroku screeched, and he waved his injured hand back and forth across Bankotsu's face. His black eyebrow twitching, Bankotsu replied, "Want me to do it again? No? Then GET YOUR HAND OFF MY FACE!"

A/N: this is just a short, info chappie, kinda like a background thing, I mean, like if I said the band name in future chapters, you'd be like, what the hell? Who're they? So hence, a little chappie couldn't hurt. I know its short. Flames shall cook Sesshomaru's shoe! And it will be fed to Jaken! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! My neck hurts.

Anyway! Review, ne? tell me how good or horrid it is, whether to add more adjectives… Almost anything! I'm making a ban/kag because they'd look good together, and there's so few! Boo-hoo!
