Chapter One: As It Is

BEEP BEEP BEEP

…Went her alarm clock at precisely seven a.m. She groaned tiredly, as she rolled over and slammed her hand down on the rude awakening noise. The room filled with silence, all except the cheerful chirping of the birds outside.

She let out long, much needed yawn, before rolling back over into her pervious position in hopes of falling back asleep, but her attempt failed as the morning sun streamed through the windows at her bedside, blinding her eyesight. Rolling onto her stomach and pulling a pillow over her head, she was able to block out the sun.

'Now back to the dream…' Snuggling deep into the endless amount of baby blue fabric, she returned to dreamland… well… that is… sort of. She uffed minutes later as a force jumped on her back.

"Uh… Megu." She moaned, poking her head out from under the covers. She knew the cause, fixating her eyes on a young 5-year-old girl.

"Morning!" Megumi chirped, looking down at her mother with the most beautiful pair of golden eyes imaginable. She had long, jet-black hair that touched down to the middle of her back, silver highlights shining in the morning sun. A smile that could melt the sun adorned her childlike features.

"Why couldn't you go in and wake up Uncle Souta?" 20-year-old Kagome Higurashi smiled as the girl climbed off her back and under the covers.

"Uncle Souta's room smells bad. And Nana told me to because you're more funner to wake up. Also, Uncle Souta always throws his stinky socks at me." She rambled, yawning as she snuggled into her mother's body, capturing the warmth. Kagome sighed letting out a little laugh, closing her eyes as she wrapped her arms gently around Megumi.

"I see and that surely took out a lot of your energy." She smirked, taking a deep breath, gently stroking the young girl's soft hair. Megumi was the more important thing in her life. Had been for the past six years. Just minutes later, the girls slow even breathing signaled that she had fallen asleep.

A soft knock rap was heard on the door before it opened a few inches. "Kagome?" A women's voice spoke, glancing over to the girl lying in the bed.

She lazily waved her hand in the air. "Morning, Mom. And thanks for sending in the wake up call." Kagome pointing to the form lying next to her, indicating someone was asleep. "She wasn't very affective."

"She'd been up since 5:30 and had nothing to do. So I insisted she come and wake up both you and Souta." Ms. Higurashi paused, smiling at her daughter and sleeping granddaughter. "I can see she didn't complete the mission. Breakfast will be ready in fifteen." The older women smiled before departing from the room, closing the door in the process. Kagome groaned.

"I don't wanna get up." She yawned, looking up at the ceiling. She ran her fingers through her hair then turning her attention down to her daughter, knowing they both had to get up and ready. "Hey Megu?" Kagome gently shook the girl. She murmured something incomprehensible before opening her eyes. "Time to get up."

They had a really important and busy day ahead.

"Morning!" Megumi cried, skipping into the kitchen a mere hour later, Kagome close in tow.

"Morning, squirt." Souta greeted, ruffling up his niece's hair.

"I'll never know where she gets this energy." Kagome sighed, walking to the counter to pour herself a mug of coffee, taking a deep drink in the process. "I mean, one minute she's out like a light and the next she's up running around."

"Mommy!" Megumi whined, trying to fix her hair. "Uncle Souta messed my hair up!"

Kagome put down her mug. "Jerk. Haven't you ever heard of treating kids nicely?" Kagome questioned, ruffling up his hair as a form of punishment.

"She's your kid so why should I?" He raised a questioning eyebrow, but soon regretted it as his sister threw a spoon at him, hitting him directly in the forehead.

She took a seat, placing Megumi on her lap, and began fixing her hair with a brush. Megumi stuck her tongue out at her uncle, who stuck one back childishly.

Ms. Higurashi sat down a plate of freshly cooked pancakes in front of the two siblings and her granddaughter.

"You know, Sis." Souta said in between bites of pancake. "Ever wonder when Inuyasha's gonna come back?"

"Not really. He promised he'd come back when I'm 18. And do you see him around? No, because he's an ass that can just vanish off the face of the earth for all I care." Kagome grumbled, taking a large bite of her pancake, irritated that her brother brought up the subject.

"We know, dear." Ms. Higurashi rested a hand on Kagome's shoulder, reassuring her. "But you know you shouldn't have gotten involved with him. You were underage and being with an adult…"

"Yeah, yeah. I know." She finished her breakfast, taking her plate and placing it in the sink. Kagome helped Megumi down, telling her to go up and grab her backpack.

"I'm catching a ride with you, Sis." Souta arose from the table, taking the strap of his backpack and slinging it over his shoulder.

"Whatever happened to your own car?" Kagome stopped halfway out the door.

"Mom took my license away."

"Next time you'll think twice about skipping school, now won't you?" Ms. Higurashi raised a questioning eyebrow to her son.

Souta sighed. "Yeah, Mom."

"I should say no but get your ass in the car. I have to be at work in half an hour and have Megu at the kindergarten in ten." And as if on cue, Megumi came running down the stairs, her backpack placed on her shoulders.

"Have a nice last day at school. Be home by two and make sure you're finished packing. We have to be at the airport by four." Ms. Higurashi hugged her son, giving him a reminder of the day ahead.

"Yeah, Mom. I know."

"Bye Nana." Megu hugged her grandmother.

"Bye Mom." Both siblings bid goodbye as all three of them marched out the door.

"God am I gonna miss you!" Yuka lunged at Kagome, tightly hugging her best friend.

"Do you really have to go? You can always back out." Eri came up behind the two, joining in on the hug.

"Seriously. But don't get us wrong. We know you'll make the finals." Ayumi came over lastly, squeezing into the now group hug.

Kagome smiled from the core of them all. "I'll be back to visit. And you know this is something I've dreamed about since I was 16. Sorry to break your guys' heart but no way I hell would I give up this opportunity."

"We know, Kags. It's just…" Eri trailed off. "…I don't want you to go."

"Oh, suck it up Eri." Yuka piped in, the strong one of the three. "There's no stopping her. When she has her mind set on something, she goes for it."

Kagome nodded in agreement as the three reluctantly pulled back. The trio had never been apart for as long as they could remember, always at each other side when another needed it the most. It was killing Kagome to leave the only people that stuck by her side when she became pregnant with Megumi when she was 14.

"We have no doubt that you're gonna make it all the way. And when you do, we'll be down there in a heartbeat." She added.

"Kinda sucks though. I really wished I could of made the cut." Ayumi pouted, folding her arms over her chest.

"Yeah… but you're tone deaf. So you kinda had a problem there…" Yuka rolled her eyes as they all laughed, minus Ayumi.

"Well excuse me for not being able to sing." Ayumi retorted. "Not all of us are gifted enough to sing. It's just that Kagome was born to be a singer. We all know that."

The following week, the four of them had all gone to audition for "Japanese Idol", the smash hit reality based T.V. show that took Japan by storm four years earlier after its success in the United States. After waiting four seasons, the auditions had finally made way to Hong Kong after much complaint from its citizens who believed just because Hong Kong was in China didn't mean there wasn't much Japanese population, if that even more than Chinese. The four of them jumped on the opportunity, Kagome the only one to make it.

Although the other three were disappointed, they were still extremely glad Kagome had the talent to press onward, considering the girls love for singing. And now the 20 year old was getting the chance of a lifetime.

Kagome glanced at her watch, realizing it was already 3:00. "I hate to break this up but I've gotta get going. We leave for the airport in an hour. Gotta make certain me and Megu are entirely packed."

"Damnit, already?" They all whined.

"Tell the little bundle of fun we'll miss her. It's gonna suck not having her around to play with." Eri added, giving Kagome one final hug before she got into her car.

"Sure thing. It's breaking her heart to be leaving too. We have to grab her on our way to the airport. They have an end of the year party going on at the kindergarten." She turned the key, igniting the car to life. "I'll call when I get in… or I'll just call in the morning. Don't think you want me calling at two in the morning."

"Nonsense. Call when you get in. We need to know that you made it alive."

Kagome rolled her eyes. "Thanks. Way to make me feel comfortable." She smiled, shutting her car door, throwing the car into reverse. "I love you guys and I'll call!" She called, rolling the car out of the driveway.

"Bye Kags!"
