Disclaimer: We don't own Inu-Yasha. Rumiko Takahashi owns it . . .well....
if we owned it . . .actually, we'd probably combine to be chaotic.
A/N: Hello peoples! This is a joint effort fanfic!! WHEEEE!! ^^' Separately, we are Momori and Noodals (Authors of 'Turmoil Comes in Many Ways...but in Tents?' and 'Onakasuitenai~!'), and we're both fans of each other's works (plus we go to school together), so this could be good. R+R!!!!!!!!!!!
(PS: If you want, leave your email addresses so we can update you on new chapters!)
One more thing: in this fic, Inu-Yasha and Sesshy aren't brothers, k? ^^
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
The night was pitch black at the harbor, being shadowed in the cloak of complete thickness of the fog. One figure lifted its head out of the shadows.
"Why does it take you so long all the time?"
The other turned around after gliding across the deck for a few seconds. The silence was broken.
"I know you have something to tell me, Inu-Yasha."
The girl turned around, her hair cascading through the wind and blending in the night sky. Her black Chinese-style dress, adorned with red, embroidered lilies glanced off the moonlight. The first figure sighed.
...an uneasy pause went by. . . .
"Ok, cut. What to say when a man refuses to respond to your attempt to strike up a romantic scene?"
"Shut up Kikyo. . . "
"You ALWAYS ruin it for me! How could you?"
"Can we get back to the sincere point of the meeting please?"
"I do EVERYTHING for you!! I strike up conversations! I embrace you! I seduce you!! And all the more you run away!"
"All the more I HATE you, you slut!!"
"How DARE you!!"
The girl reached behind her back, withdrawing something...perhaps a gun by the way she was holding it.
"You'll pay for this! You'll understand how all this time I felt by your disgrace!"
She aimed....
"Kikyo, cut."
"What?"
"I mean, let's get serious here..."
"I AM serious, you freak!" She pushed the gun up against his head.
"Serious? I laugh at that..."
"How would YOU know? How would YOU know how a woman feels?!"
"How WOULD I know how a woman feels when she's standing there pointing a banana at someone's head?"
...pause...
"Damn, I was hoping you wouldn't notice..."
"I've at least two guns pointed at my head before, how could I not notice that this wasn't a gun?"
They heard footsteps running at a fast pace.
"Kikyo! You stop RIGHT THERE!!"
Another figure came running in, wearing a similar outfit to Kikyo's, but with gold flowers. She too had something in her hand.
"Hmph. Kagome, you're ALWAYS on time..."
"Put that banana down, Kikyo. I'm serious!"
"HA! You? A mere starter in the spy business? I laugh!"
That comment blew it. In a blink of an eye, a round item the size of a bowling ball went hurtling at Kikyo's head. She missed by a millimeter. The tall figure of a young man with milky white hair stepped out of the shadows.
He bent down to look at the item. He faced Kagome with an astonished look.
"Grapefruit?!"
"Haven't you heard of a 'grapefruit diet' before?"
"What's it doing at our meeting?"
"Well, I was GOING to eat it, but I decided to sacrifice it because I have plenty at home. And did you know, Kikyo, that my grandpa owns one of the biggest banana plantations in the world? You were trying to threaten Inu- Yasha with one of my grandpa's bananas. Ironic isn't it?"
Kikyo dropped the banana as if it was poisonous and squished it into the ground.
Inu-Yasha gave Kagome a weirder look.
"What do you EAT girl?"
"Don't even TRY asking you mutt. Get on with the meeting..."
Communication between the three that night went by smoothly, surprisingly enough. But not until:
"WHAT?!!" Kagome's shock broke the calm, formal meeting.
"Like I said, NARAKU IS FIRED!!"
"It can't be!!"
Kikyo gave Kagome a deadly look.
"You believe it or you don't."
"That freak. What did he do THIS time?" She continued.
"He erased the data in the manager's computer, thus making it unknown for the Shikon Agency that he actually kept that thing handy dandy for himself."
"And what's so bad about that?"
The two girls looked at Inu-Yasha, who was leaning against the tree.
"I didn't like the looks of him from the beginning. I don't give a damn whether or not he gets fired."
"My, my. Taking it rather lightly aren't you, Inu-Yasha?"
"Like I said, I don't care."
"What would you do if I said YOU were fired along with him?"
He jolted up.
"Where the HELL is Sesshy?"
Kikyo smirked.
"It's too late. Sesshy's got the game set for you two as 'over'."
"You TWO? Meaning"
"You're fired too, Kagome-CHAN."
Kagome was speechless.
"Nooo!!"
"Oh yeesssss"
With that, she laughed aloud and cat walked far into the night. The two were left behind, lost for words. Finally, Kagome turned around towards where she came from.
"Kagome, where are you going?"
"..Home."
"I'll walk you."
"I-It's ok.."
"Kagome?"
"..w-what?"
"Are you crying?"
"N-No."
He set his hands on her shoulders.
"It's okay if you are."
She spun around and cried into his chest. He couldn't help feeling sympathy for her, after all this was her first time working in a spy agency, and this had been their first mission. All those times which they thought that the Shikon jewel was safe, they were wrong, and they had let it slip away from them from a staff member of their own. Sesshomaru, their boss, had sacked them all. Naraku. Evil was he, to let such young spirits as theirs down. He grimaced. He attempted to sooth her, and slowly walked her home.
*~The next day~*
"Kagome-chan! I was looking all over for you!!"
Sango came bursting into her apartment. She instantly knew that it had been bad timing, because Kagome was seated at her small dining table with her mouth open wide to bite into her grapefruit and there were grapefruit shells all over the table.
"??"
"uh..sorry there."
Kagome sweatdropped.
"S'ok Sango-chan. Come join me for some grapefruit, will ya?"
"I'll pass on the grapefruit part…"
"Fine with me. More for me then."
Sango seated herself next to Kagome. She had a sincere look on her face.
"Kagome-chan, what are we going to do?"
"Huh?"
"I'm fired. So are you.."
Kagome looked down at the table. She preferred not to think about it.
"I-I don't know."
She saw Sango's face brighten.
"Do you want to go on a mission with me, Kagome-chan?"
"What?"
Sango had planned out a complete mission to track down their antagonist. If trust wasn't possible to be given to them, they were just going to have to
earn it, she said. And it was true. She laid out a map of the course they were to take
"Sesshy ain't gonna like this, so we can't get caught, understand?"
Kagome nodded. "But he can't do anything to us anymore, can he? I mean, we don't work for him anymore."
Suddenly, something came swinging down from the ceiling chandelier and knocked itself into Sango's head and she went soaring into the back wall. Miroku hung upside down swinging by his legs from the chandelier.
"That was meant to be a kiss, not a headbutt darling…."
"…jerk…."
He swung full force in hopes to let his legs go of the chandelier but…
"Miroku, that's a-"Kagome started.
The chandelier suddenly lowered itself, in the direction of poor unfortunate Sango, and in which Miroku went flying into her feet. She let out a shriek, toppling over him with a thump and the two laid sprawled out on the floor in a heap.
"-a cleaning chandelier…" Kagome finished with a sigh.
"Aaaaah!! GET OFF OF ME!!!!!!"
"I believe YOU are on top of ME Sango-chan."
…pause…
Sango struggled to get up.
"..jerk."
Miroku struggled up after her and smiled genuinely at Kagome.
"Looks like you were sacked too, eh? And you might have told me that the chandelier came down! That way I might have been able to kiss Sango instead of trip her."
She nodded miserably. "It comes down so that I can clean it without having to get a ladder.
"Well, I helped Sango to make this idea, so why don't you join us? I believe it's a good method to get our future back-"
"MIIIRRROOOOKKKUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Inu-Yasha came barging in through the door, waving his finger accusingly at the supposedly innocent human.
"WHERE THE HELL'S MY WARDROBE?!!!!!" Miroku gulped.
"I…I"
Kagome realized he was shaking with laughter. Kagome found herself shaking too, along with Sango. Inu-Yasha was dressed in a one-size-fits-all t- shirt with a gas pill advertisement in the front. For the bottom, he wore puppy-print boxers.
"BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!!!"
Miroku sprawled out on the floor, laughing hysterically at the I-just-woke- up Inu-Yasha.
"Haahaaa, you don't NEED a wardrobe. *Snicker* You could go back to the dormitories like that Inu-Yasha!! Say hi to your new spy uniform!!"
"SHUT UP!!!!! WHERE'D YOU PUT MY WARDROBE???!!!!"
But Miroku couldn't respond due to his hysterics. Neither could the rest. Poor Inu-Yasha had to leave just to stop their laughter. He stepped out into the hall and froze as an old lady passed him, muttering about weird teenagers and how glad she was that she was never one.
Kagome continued to think through her giggles. Could she take this mission on? Or will she just be a burden?
