Summary:Rihan leaves a clan meeting unexpectedly to everyones surprise. Only a few know where he's actually going, although everyone else wants to chase after him Nurarihyon decides to let him be and takes over the meeting. Everyone is curious as to where he went off to but eventually they will find out.

I suck at summaries and since this is my first fanfic, I'm actually kinda nervous about posting something here. Hope you like though.=D.


"I'm leaving, old man take care of the rest will you?"

"Oi!, Rihan you're the one in command now, not me, what do you mean 'take care of the rest'? Rihan, Rihan get back here!" yelled the Supreme Commander at his son as he ran out of the meeting they were currently in. As much as the commander knew his son disliked meetings since not everyone would agree to one conclusion quickly he never expected his son to just run out on him and leave him to clean up the mess. Heck, he was retired already for about a few hundred years to. 'What's that boy thinking?' he thought. 'Does he have another meeting to attend to or something?' he thought to himself.

"Supreme Commander, what do we do about the current situation, we must come up with a solution immediately." Said Daruma, he too was confused by Koi-kuns actions, it was a first that he would just get up and leave without properly ending the meeting and solving their current issue, yokai entering Nura Clan territory and doing as they wish, something that no one from the Nura Clan would tolerate nor would they ignore. Suddenly, "Supreme Commander, forgive me for the interruption but Rihan-sama said he has an important appointment he had to attend and he couldn't be late." said the headless yokai Kubinashi as he entered just in time before any unnecessary disputes began. "He said to tell you not to worry about him, he will be fine and return once he's done."

"Do you know what this appointment is about Kubinashi?" asked the Commander. Kubinashi flinched, his orders were to tell the Supreme Commander not to worry and that's it, he was given specific orders by Rihan, orders that he was going to fulfill no matter what.


FLASHBACK

"Oi, Kubinashi come here a sec will you." Said the Nidaime, Nura Rihan. Kubinashi was surprised he knew that Rihan would be busy with a clan meeting later on so what was he doing right now he wonders. The heads of the other clans would be arriving any minute now, nonetheless he did as he was told.

"What is it Rihan-sama?"he asked curiously.

"Ok I need you to do me a favor and do what I tell you pretty please?"

"Ok?" said Kubinashi who was a little bit confused at the moment, was it something important he asked himself?

"Ok the meeting today is going to take longer that I would want it to last but I have a special appointment that I cannot miss no matter what, when that time comes I will leave and let my old man finish the rest. When you sense that I have left please go to the meeting where I'm sure everyone including my old man will have a confused look on their face. Tell them that I will be fine and that I have an important appointment. Don't tell them with who or what it is, just tell them its important period."

'Easier said than done', thought Kubinashi. "But what if everyone keeps asking and insisting what do I do then Rihan-sama?" "Ignore them" replied Rihan rather bluntly. 'Hell, if I do that I'll get myself killed not to mention the Supreme Commander, I can't just ignore him! Me a lonely headless yokai against our clan's generals, is he insane?!' Kubinashi yelled mentally, he didn't mind doing favors for the Nidaime but this was huge.

"Before you go please tell me where you're going, it's only fair, I'm risking my life for you here." Rihan pondered for a second whether he should tell Kubinashi or not, once he saw the determined look in Kubinashi's eyes telling him that he will get it out of him somehow he thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to tell at least a few of his comrades.

He smirked, "As long as you promise not to tell anybody."

"I promise Nidaime you have my word.", Rihan smiled warmly he knew he could trust Kubinashi, "Ok I tell you, you see…"

END FLASHBACK


Kubinashi looked nervous, everybody was waiting for his answer, although he did know why Rihan just left the meeting unexpectedly, well to the others at least, he promised he wouldn't say anything to anybody. He was a man of his word and he wouldn't say a thing no matter what happened. When they find out everything would be clear and they wouldn't be so-.

"Kubinashi." Said the supreme commander, Kubinashi could tell he was getting inpatient, "Forgive me Supreme Commander but I do not know any specifics, all I know is that what he has to do is very important." Nurarihyon wasn't buying it but he knew Kubinashi wouldn't say anything if his son told him not to, the young headless yokai was loyal and his loyalty never wavered, something Nurarihyon valued a lot. "Very well, I will take over this meeting and we will come to a conclusion, understood?" he asked his other fellow comrades.

"Hai, Supreme Commander." they all said in unison. Although they all too questioned as to why Rihan, the Nidaime of the Nura Clan, just got up and left. Gyuki though, unbeknownst to Rihan, knew why he left, thanks to a little birdie.


AN: I repeat this is my first fanfic and I wanna see how things are if you know what I mean. I don't have a beta for this story so forgive me for my mistakes. I'm positive I missed some-or a lot. I hope you like it it's a small, little idea that popped into my head.=D. It won't be a long story...I think.
