Inutori: I am starting ANOTHER fanfic, though I really need to finish the old ones…
Inuyasha: You'll never finish Another DogDemon if you keep on starting new fics.
Inutori: I just can't help it! My muse sees all of these wonderful things that you guys could be doing, and they just don't fit into the other storylines! Gomen nasai!
Kagome: Perhaps you should just put some of these on hold and not put them on until you're old ones are completed.
Inutori: Blasphemy! How can you say that? Keep all of my horrid ideas locked within the confines of my house and not share them with the world ::looks at readers:: What?! Fine, I'll say it…I don't own Inuyasha or his buds…or his enemies…or the annoying people that aren't enemies but they aren't buds either. Happy now?

Chapter 1
Undercover

Kikyou carefully put her contact in place as she prepared for the next mission. It turned her eye a bright blue that did not bode well with her other brown eye. So she inserted the other eye-altering lens and looked at herself in the mirror.

How long had she been doing this? As an American agent, she never had a boring moment. It seemed like she had been doing this for years, when in fact she was only hired six months previous.

Her hands eased into the gel-like substance in a bowl on the table and she watched as her skin transformed. With new fingerprints, the black-haired beauty slipped on the outfit given to her by the agency to wear. The thing was very sluttish in appearance and Kikyou knew that she'd be attracting a lot of attention to herself by wearing it, but it was her job.

Once dressed, she picked up a wig of silky blonde hair that would be about shoulder length and stuffed it carefully over her own hair that came down to mid-neck. It had been longer, past her waist, before she joined the FBI, but with all of the disguises she was required to don it was better to just keep it short.

Next was her makeup. She put enough on to hide her natural features such as freckles, and black eyebrows, but not enough to have people grow suspicious.

Rubbing her hands together, Kikyou slipped on her black high-heels and walked out into the main office of the FBI headquarters. Men stared at her like she was a rare gem they had never before seen and some of them even went as far as drooling. 'Disgusting fools.'

Her expression didn't falter as she casually walked between the cubicles and towards the main entrance. There she saw her new partner. They had been assigned to each other just last week since a member of the federation the agents were out to expose had shot Kikyou's old partner. She figured that this time she would get the help of an insider, and Sutruss said that this guy had at some point worked for the underground black market called Youkai Enterprises.

The man before her, Agent Jidai, was a well-built man of high stature. His hair was normally a white-silver color, but today it was pure black for the purpose of going undercover with Kikyou, or more formally, Agent Miko. And his eyes were now a gorgeous violet color where once he had golden eyes. Hair that came down past his waist hung in a low ponytail to keep it out of his face and his sealed lips hid gleaming fangs that Kikyou had seen upon being first introduced to the man.

"Miko, you ready to go?" The young FBI agent, no more than 25 years old in appearance, beckoned for Kikyou to follow him outside to officially begin Operation: Exterminate.

"Jidai, where to?" Kikyou stepped lightly beside the tall man, she taking two steps for every one of his. They went out into the parking lot and the male agent pulled a set of keys out of one pocket that belonged to a convertible.

"To Naraku, where else?" Jidai looked at her with a smug grin that annoyed the young female agent more than could be imagined. He hopped into the driver's seat of the car when they came to it and put the keys into the ignition.

"That's not what I meant." Kikyou growled low in her throat before opening the passenger seat door and gently sliding herself onto the seat.

"Could you do that any slower?"

"Yes, would you like me to?" Kikyou didn't smile as she spoke, just keeping the same, cold expression on her face that she had grown so accustomed to after leaving Japan. "Just go."

Six months past and the two American agents were able to make no progress in the way of bringing down the infamous Naraku. The two could be found sitting at a McDonalds restaurant sorting out all of the clues they had gathered thus far. It looked as though they may have pinpointed the location of Naraku, but neither was quite sure.

"Hey Miko, check out that guy with the overcoat."

Kikyou looked up to see a husky man standing just outside the restaurant door in a large black coat. He was hunched over and had his hands in his pockets.

"A little warm for such a heavy jacket, don't you think?" Jidai looked over at Kikyou with a frown covering his features. It was late spring and even the American agent Miko had begun to wear sleeveless dresses meant for the spring and summertime.

So Kikyou nodded, the man outside was a little too suspicious to blow off as just some loony from downtown.

Both people stood up casually and threw away the remains of their fast-food meal before nonchalantly walking out of the restaurant. Jidai was disguised as a brunette at the time and Kikyou was a sexy redhead: as always they were undercover.

"Sir, is there a reason for the coat?" Jidai carefully approached the man, fingering a pistol in his pants pocket.

"Yes, there is, Agent Jidai." The man looked up at the pair. His skin looked faintly green and his eyes were a reddish color. It took both Kikyou and Jidai off guard to see such atrociousness in broad daylight, but they recovered quickly and drew their guns. "I wouldn't recommend that…"

"Why?" Kikyou hesitated a moment, wondering if the man was bluffing to get himself to safety.

"Because, you shoot me, you die." The man smiled smugly at them as he glanced up to a window three stories up on a building across the street.

Kikyou's eyes followed him while Jidai kept his attention on the suspicious man. Just barely she could make out the silhouette of a person aiming a gun at them. "Jidai, we're trapped. RUN!"

Both agents took off running in opposite directions at a dead run, not looking back to see if the other one was making it away safely. Behind her, she could hear a lone gunshot and a yelp from her partner. Not really thinking about it, she turned around to look at Jidai, who was on the ground still.

Tears breaching her normally cold eyes, she ran again: back into the heat of danger. She faintly heard a machine gun fire from above, probably the sharp shooter in the window. A scream of agony and surprise left her mouth as her body was jerked around from the impact of one bullet after another into her chest.

It was a pain that she had never before experienced, something she wished never to experience again if given a choice. Blood filled her organs and her vision became clouded…what she would give for a painkiller at that moment. Then in an instant, everything went black and she took her last, painful breath.

Inuyasha Jidai barged into Agent Sutruss's office holding a small folder with his next assignment in it.

"What is the meaning of this?!" He waved the papers in front of the elderly woman in anger. "JAPAN? What in blazes am I supposed to do in JAPAN? I barely even know the language!" His golden eyes flashed with an immeasurable anger at his superior.

"You will be recruiting an agent for us there to be your partner." The wrinkled old woman remained seated at her desk calmly as Inuyasha hyperventilated on the other side of her small table.

"Why don't you just talk to Japan's embassy and have the guy sent over? Why do I have to go THERE?"

"Because, Agent Jidai, if the Japanese government gets a hold of your new partner, it won't be America they'll be sending her." Kaede Sutruss shuffled some papers that were before her to straighten up the pile and filed them in a drawer near her desk.

"What the-"

"Your new partner is a Japanese criminal. One of the best, I must say. She is the only one that can do Agent Miko's job as good as Miko. She might even do it better." Kaede smiled at Inuyasha, throwing him into a new tantrum.

"I am NOT working with some thug! And Miko can't be replaced by some lowlife scum!"

"The 'lowlife scum' you are referring to is Miko's younger sister."

Inutori: Inutori here! I just got finished with the first chapter, and if you've read this, then you are required to review. If you don't, I will hunt you down and throw you into Azkaban.
Kagome: Why Azkaban? They're all muggles.
Inutori: Shut up and let me enjoy fantasizing about my evil scheme…
Kagome: ::to readers:: Well, this is your cue to go review the chapter so that Inutori will be inspired to write the next one…or perhaps you'd just prefer to go read some of her other stories…Another DogDemon is up to 5 chapters now, and it's going fairly well considering…
Inutori: Anyway, review…and until next chapter, JA!
