Prologue
The Assignment
Detectives Inuyasha Taisho and his partner Miroku Houshi waited outside Captain Sesshoumaru Taisho's office for permission to enter. They had both been paged and literally commanded to see him. Now, he was making them sweat it out.
This could have been about anything. A promotion, a reprimand or even a dismissal. You could never put anything past Sesshoumaru.
Both men were called out of their musing when they were told to enter.
Inuyasha led the way and sat down in one of the hunter green chairs his half-brother kept in his office. He looked around at the numerous diplomas that adorned the walls. His amber gaze traveled to the pristine oak desk (God forbid there should be a paper out of place) and at the imposing man sitting across from him in a position that was clearly meant to intimidate.
"Spit it out Fluffy. Why'd you call us here?"
He merely raised an aristocratic eyebrow.
"Surly, as ever I see dear brother? However, as I don't have time to waste, I shall let that go. You've a new assignment. So get rid of the self-deprecation crap, Inuyasha. You'll need what little wit you have to get through this alive."
He turned to Miroku.
"Houshi, you'll be going with him to see that he stays on track."
His voice softened a bit when he looked at his half-brother again.
"Inuyasha, listen to me. What happened to Kikyo in your last assignment wasn't your fault. We had no idea that Naraku—"
He was cut off.
"It's all right Sesshoumaru. Just tell us what we have to do."
"All right. Here's the deal. I want you two to do surveillance on a house at 156 Sengoku Dr. I've got a tip that all those jewelry robberies that we keep having trouble with are connected and that the ones responsible live at that house."
"Well why not just go in and get them? It shouldn't be that hard."
"Because, Inuyasha, we don't know what they're dealing with here. From what I've heard, this guy's got a pretty big arsenal. And he's influential. We don't want to alert him to any police activity and run the risk of him getting away."
"Just who exactly are we dealing with?"
"Naraku Onigumo."
Inuyasha's eyes widened and Miroku had to struggle to keep him in his chair.
"You knew? You knew where that bastard was and you never told me?"
"And now you get your chance for revenge! So don't mess up. Dammit Inuyasha, don't let your emotions take over your job! You've got to have a level head if you want to nail him. For you as well as for Kikyo."
"Captain Sesshoumaru."
He turned to Miroku in question.
"What is it Houshi?"
"How long will we be doing this and where will we be staying?"
Their superior looked at them for the first time with a hint of a smirk.
"I've called and made arrangements for you to stay with two civilians—"
Miroku and Inuyasha heaved a sigh of relief.
"As their live-in boyfriends."
"Are you crazy? Then not only will we have to get Naraku, we'll have to guard their asses! And you're telling me that I have to keep my mind on this case? You idiot—"
Miroku's reaction was quite different.
"Are they beautiful Sessy-chan?"
He let go of the formality and used the nickname he'd learned from Inuyasha way back when they were toddlers.
"Who gives a shit houshi? The point is we won't be able to concentrate now with what this idiot did!"
Sesshoumaru looked bored and unconcerned at his younger brother's outrage.
"You never allowed me to finish. Do you honestly think I could let you live with girls who wouldn't be able to defend themselves? One of them can handle a boomerang quite well and the other one is an expert archer."
"Oh yes Fluffy. And that'll help when we're shooting at them with our Glocks."
"Sessy-chan? Are they?"
Sesshoumaru stood up and walked to his file cabinet, and pulled out two manila envelopes."
"They've already been informed Inuyasha. Miroku. Everything you need to know is right here. Get going. I'll contact you with instructions at their house."
Review me please!
