"Thank you for getting back to me so soon." Rin said and then clicked off her cell phone.
She took a deep breath and then made another phone call.
"Hello." a male voice said.
"It's Rin, I need to talk to you."
"You know I'm busy today."
"Would I be calling you if it wasn't important?"
"Where do you want to meet?"
"Ten o'clock, the usual place."
"I'll be there."
"You better be or I will cut off your fuc..."
"Rin that mouth of yours is horrible." he said interrupting her.
"Funny, you don't mind it when it's on your body."
"Of course I don't."
"Well meet me and who knows what will happen."
"I'll see you at ten." he said hanging up.
Rin turned off her phone for a second time. The slight smile she had on her face disappeared as she remembered the reason why she needed to talk to him in the first place. She stared at her phone for a second and then burst out crying. At the same time she felt herself become angry. Although she didn't know if she was angry for being so stupid or because she was crying.
"Damn it all!!" she yelled as she threw the phone across the room.
Next she threw some glasses that were lying on the bar. Rin heard footsteps running toward her so she slipped on her sunglasses so no one would know that she had been crying.
"We heard someone yelling. Are you okay Miss Rin?" asked one of the clubs bouncers.
"I'm fine. Have you seen my brother?"
"He said something about going to a meeting."
Shit, I forgot about the meeting.
Rin walked over to her cell phone, picked it up and then rushed out the door.
"Sesshomaru, are you sure this is a good idea?"
"Yes. How many times do I have to explain this?" he said without looking up from his laptop.
"No more. I've heard it enough. Inuyasha, we don't need an all out war. All that does is cost us more money and lives." Inuyasha said imitating him.
Sesshomaru looked up at him for a second and then returned to working on the laptop. Inuyasha stared at Sesshomaru for a few seconds and smirked. He knew that his brother was lying his arrogant head off. Peace wasn't even part of Sesshomaru's vocabulary. Take away the designer suits, charm, and cool facade and you were left with the real Sesshomaru, a ruthless killer. Inuyasha wouldn't be surprised if his brother had more kills than the hit man they sometimes employed.
"Even if we're not interested in peace, we don't want them to know that." Sesshomaru said without looking up.
Inuyasha smirked. There was the brother he knew and loathed. If he was anyone else, Sesshomaru would have sighed at that moment. That stupid idiot refused to believe that he was serious about wanting peace. Although, Sesshomaru couldn't blame him for that assumption. He had spent most of his life taking what he wanted by force. Was he serious about wanting peace? Somewhat. Would he be able to get it? No. He had too much power. And the problem with power was the fact that someone always wanted to take it from you. They finally pulled up to the meeting place.
"They're here." Naraku said said backing away from the window.
"I say forget the peace talks and kill them all." Kagura said.
"Now is not the time for that. That means everyone is to be on their best behavior. Where's Rin?" "I don't know." Koga said. "Ask Kagura."
"She's your sister. Maybe you should keep up with her." Kagura snapped.
"I don't want any trouble today." Sesshomaru said.
"That means you Jaken." Inuyasha said with a laugh. "Besides, we don't want to watch Rin kick your ass again."
Jaken gave Inuyasha a death glare while Kagome suppressed a giggle. Sesshomaru ignored them all as he got out of the limo. Maybe I should have left Jaken out of this, he thought. Jaken absolutely hated Rin because of the two she was the better gunman and fighter. The last time they fought she had shot him in the stomach. And it didn't help that on numerous occasions Sesshomaru had tried to recruit her. But she always refused because she was loyal to her brother. Everyone finished climbing out and they went inside.
"I notice that their psycho sidekick is not here" Jaken whispered once they got inside and looked around.
"Jaken." Sesshomaru warned with a glare.
"Sorry Sesshomaru. But how do we know that she isn't carrying out some plan to kill us once we leave here?"
"Toad boys got a point Sess." Inuyasha said. "She's the real brains behind them. It's kind of weird that she isn't here."
"Even if they try something, it will fail. I didn't come here unprepared."
Inuyasha was about to question him, but he walked off. I didn't come here unprepared. What the hell did that mean? Inuyasha shook his head. He'd drive himself crazy if he tried to figure his brother out.
"Thank you for coming." Naraku said. "Since we're all busy people, I suggest we get right to business."
They all took a seat and begin talking.
Rin weaved her motorcycle in and out of the traffic. She sighed once she made it to her destination. She was forty-five minutes late. Naraku was going to complain for days about this. She calmly walked in the door.
"My motorcycle broke down." she lied.
Rin she took a seat and kept quiet. She had other more important matters on her mind. Like the fact that in the very near future a secret that she desperately needed to keep hidden was going to have to be revealed. Normally she'd be glad to get it out in the open, but this particular secret was going to cause serious trouble. It could even get people she loved killed. Rin sighed. There was nothing she could do about it now. The damage was done and she was going to have to live with the consequences. She pushed all other thoughts out of her mind and concentrated on the meeting. An hour later it was over. Rin tried to hurry out the door, but Naraku caught up to her.
"Rin, we need to talk."
"Not now."
"Yes now." he said grabbing her arm. "You don't call a meeting and then be late. Nor do you sit there like you'd rather be somewhere else. That sends the message that you're not serious about it."
"Is that the end of the lecture?" she said pulling her arm away. "I've got a killer headache so I'm going home to sleep."
"What was so important that you were late? Were you somewhere whoring around?"
"Fuck you!"
She said it louder than she intended and because of that a few people turned to look at them. Rin glared at them until they turned away so she turned to face Naraku again. She desperately wanted to shoot him where he stood. Koga walked over to them.
"What's the problem with you two now?"
"Nothing." Rin snapped. "I'm going home now. I trust no one has a problem with that?"
She gave them her iciest glare and dared them to say anything. When neither said anything, she walked off.
"Leave Rin alone okay." Koga said. "One day she's really going to loose her temper and shoot you."
"I doubt that."
Rin stood outside and kicked her bike. It had decided to break down for real. She was about to head back inside when Sesshomaru and his gang walked out. They were about to get into their limo when Naraku and Koga walked out. A wicked grin spread across her face.
"Hey Sesshomaru." she yelled. "No offers for me to come work for you? I'm hurt."
"It's an open ended offer. Anytime you're ready to work under me, call."
Jaken and Naraku glared at her as Sesshomaru got in the limo.
"That girl is trouble." Jaken said as he got in.
"I know." Sesshomaru said expressionlessly.
Inuyasha glanced at his brother strangely. Despite the blank face, he could've sworn that he heard a hint of humor in Sesshomaru's voice.
"Rin what the hell are you doing?" Koga asked.
"Nothing." she said innocently. "I thought we had a truce with them."
"We do but that doesn't mean you should get overly friendly with them."
"Sorry. I will be a good girl and not talk to the enemy." she said sarcastically. "Now be a good brother and give me a ride home. My bike won't start."
Later that night Rin stood on the dock and looked up at the sky.
"Rin."
"You're late." she said smiling brightly.
She spun around and the smile instantly died from her lips.
"You!"
"Me." the person said with a smile. "Goodbye Rin."
She saw the glint of metal and instantly went for her gun, but it was too late. Rin screamed and fell backwards as the bullet tore into her flesh.
Sesshomaru walked into the marina and instantly knew that there was trouble. Cops and firemen were all over the place.
"What's going on?" he asked an onlooker.
"A boat exploded. The Night Wind or something like that."
"You mean the Night Sin?"
"Yeah."
Night Sin was the name of his boat so he quickly walked to where it was. It was totally engulfed in flames. Sesshomaru cursed. He loved his boat. His father had left him the boat so it was one of the few things he cherished.
Whoever did this is going to die a horrible death.
Sesshomaru eyes suddenly locked onto something a little bit away from the dock his boat had once been tied too. It was blood. A cold chill ran down his spine. He went to step closer but a cop stopped him.
"That's my boat." he said coolly.
"Sorry but it's a crime scene."
"Hey Charlie look at this." another cop called.
"You stay here." Charlie said to Sesshomaru as he walked to the other cop.
Sesshomaru listened to what they were saying.
"Shit, that's a beauty. It probably cost a pretty penny."
"It's obviously custom made. So it won't be hard to track down the owner."
What the hell are they talking about Sesshomaru wondered. His question was soon answered as the other cop lifted the thing in question up and placed it in a clear bag. Sesshomaru stared at the item in the as his body started shivering slightly. In the bag was a gun. But not just any gun, but a red gun.
"Do you recognize this?" the cop Charlie asked.
"No." Sesshomaru replied as he turned and walked away.
Did he recognize it? Of course he did. HE had been the one to order it. FOR RIN.
"Hey look, it's engraved." Sesshomaru heard Charlie say. "Princess."
"Yeah but it's spelled wrong. P-R-I-N-S-E-S-S." the other cop said.
A slight smile played on Sesshomaru's lips. He had thought the engraver had spelt it wrong too and told Rin about it but she had just laughed.
"It's exactly the way I wanted it to be spelled. Take away the P and what do you have?" he remembered her saying.
"Rin Sess."
She had giggled and told him that it would be another one of their secrets. His smiled died as his mind suddenly started working over time. Rin calling him...Them agreeing to meet on the Night Sin...Night Sin in flames...Blood...Rin's gun. It all seemed to equal to one thing.
"Rin's dead." Sesshomaru whispered.
It took a minute for that statement to penetrate fully. When it did, the usually frozen Sesshomaru finally cracked. A tear rolled down his cheek.
"RIN!!!"
