Chapter 2

A New Job

"But Renkotsu I want to kill the next person!"

"Will you shut up! I don't even know why you are in this! You can't do anything!"

"…Yes I can!"

"Fine, show me. Kill that bird."

"But that's a cute bird!"

"Just kill the damn bird, Kagome!"

"O-OK…"

Kagome slowly snuck towards the small sparrow that was perched on the dumpster. She gulped as she pointed her gun towards it head. The sparrow looked at her with curious and cute eyes. Kagome put her gun down.

"What the hell, Kagome?! You can't even kill a bird! See, I told you, you couldn't do anything."

Renkotsu plopped onto a cardboard box and placed his chin in his hand.

Why'd I get stuck with these pathetic losers?

Kagome sniffed lightly and crept towards the bird again, with her hand held out.

As soon as the bird saw her hand, it bolted off into the sky.

"C'mon, Renkotsu, when are we going to get going?" Kouga, another hit man, asked, impatiently.

Renkotsu shot him a angry glare.

"Wait, I'm trying to think here."

"You're always thinking."

"And you aren't, that's why I'm with you. You're the muscle and I'm the brain and Kagome's the…well, Kagome's the nothing."

Kagome's eyes welled up with tears.

Kouga began to walk over to comfort her, but Renkotsu looked up.

"Oh no, no comforting and getting all kissing when I'm around!" He ordered, but Kouga moved another inch forward.

"Nuh uh!"

Another inch.

"No!"

Another inch.

"Uh uh."

Another inch and finally he was by Kagome's side and kissing her along her neck. Renkotsu slapped his forehead.

Once again, another long day.

He was just about to go stop Kouga from his make out session, when his cell phone started to ring.

"Hello?" Renkotsu said into the phone.

As the man on the other line told Renkotsu, a evil sneer spread across his face.

"Right, boss. We'll get her."

After he hung up the phone, Renkotsu turned to Kouga and Kagome.

"We've got a new job to do." Renkotsu's words were cold and evil.

Sango moved her hand over the bed and felt no Bankotsu at her side. She opened one eye and saw that he wasn't even in the room. She sat up, lazily, and stretched out her limbs. That's when she noticed the small note that was laid on the bed. Sango picked up it up and scanned over it quickly.

Sango,

I'm going for a walk to think about some things. I'll try to be back before the funeral, but if I'm not, leave without me.

Bankotsu

Sango sighed. Why did he have to do this today?

She took a quick glance at her clock and saw the numbers; 10:00a.m. That would leave her two and a half hours to get ready, and hopefully Bankotsu would be back in time.

As she just finished curling her hair and putting it up into a tight bun, Sango smoothed down her strappy black dress. She walked into the kitchen as she put in her large hoop earrings. Looking out the window, Sango saw nothing except maybe a leaf in blowing in the wind.

Seems like he's not coming after all.

Sango sighed as she grabbed her keys and headed off to her car.

As Sango drove out of her driveway, Renkotsu was crouching behind a bush waiting for her departure. Once she was out of sight, he arose from the greenery and gave the single for Kouga and Kagome to exit as well.

As they crept towards the door, Sango and Bankotsu's elderly neighbor was just coming outside to take down her garden decorations when she saw the gang trying to break into the house. Kouga glanced over and saw the woman's frightened face. Just as see began to sneak back into her home, Kouga brought out his gun and shot her in the chest, which gave her an immediate death.

"Do you have to be so loud?" Renkotsu asked, irritated, as he twiddled with the lock again.

"Either that or we get caught by the police."

"The police probably would've heard that shot from here." Just as he said that, the lock broke free. Renkotsu smirked as he opened the door to reveal the house. They stepped in and Kagome stared with a blank expression.

"How could Santa get in if there's no chimney?" She asked, Renkotsu and Kouga stared at her and then each other. Renkotsu was about to speak, but stopped. There was no point after…that point…

As Kagome searched the house for a chimney, Renkotsu and Kouga searched for a hiding spot, where they could wait until Sango returned.

"How about the cellar?" Kouga suggested as they looked down the creepy way leading to the cellar.

Renkotsu shook his head. "No. It's be too risky going up these stairs, she'd hear us for sure."

The two men continued to search until they found a spot in an overly large closet, a supply closet.

"Perfect." Renkotsu stated as he walked in to check out the space. Kouga blinked and sighed.

"We have to stay in this all night?" He whined and Renkotsu flinched slightly, he hated it when people whined.

"Yes. And it's only until she's in bed."

Kouga sighed again and nodded.

They all stuffed themselves in there, waiting for the time.

Personally, Sango didn't like the idea of going to someone's funeral. Really, what's the point of seeing someone being buried below the ground, though it also is about saying goodbye. She sighed as she once again left her car, tired as usual.

She had stayed at the funeral from 12:30 'till 4:00, comforting Miroku's loved ones and, of course, waiting for Bankotsu to come, but he never showed. Then, she went to the bar for a couple drinks and drove home, technically she didn't drink and drive. One, she wasn't drinking in the car and two, she wasn't drunk, so it wasn't drinking and driving.

When her hand gripped the doorknob, Sango felt it was looser than usual, but ignored it, since she was so tired. She also noticed that Bankotsu hadn't come home.

Where could he be?

She laid her keys on the kitchen counter and rummaged through the pantry to find a bottle a water. Finally giving up looking through the mess, Sango made her way upstairs to the bedroom.

The automatic, dimly lit lamp welcomed her into the room as she walked in. Sango quickly changed into her pajama's, black cotton shorts and a tiny, white tank top, before plopping down of the bed and resting back her head.

The day had been so tiring for her that she nearly feel asleep as she begun to slide off the bottom of the bed. Quickly, she rose and then crawled under the covers, where she'd be able to get some real sleep.

Twenty minutes dragged by as Sango restlessly tossed around in her bead, trying to go to sleep, but trying at 6:30 at night, was hard for anyone, even if they had a long day. She remained still for a couple minutes and that's when she heard quiet whispers enter the room.

Bankotsu?

Sango bolted up, but just as she did a hand quickly covered her mouth and the other tightly gripped her arm as she was flung off the bed and forced to stand. She whipped her body around to break free, but the grasp tightened on her arm, almost cutting the circulation off. Even so, she still continued to wiggle, until another man stepped out in front of her.

"No use struggling, princess. You're not going anywhere." He explained, his voice cold and sinister.

The hand moved away from Sango's mouth and she gasped for breath.

"What do you want with me?!" She spat, glaring at the man in the darkness of the room.

"What's the point of telling you, you're just going to be killed later."

Sango's eyes widened and the man continued talking.

"Unless, of course, your boyfriend gives my boss what he wants."

"What? What do you mean?" Sango blinked in confusion. What was going on?

"Kagome!" The man ordered. "Bring me the needle." A young woman, about Sango's age, came from the shadow's of the room.

"Can I do it, Renkotsu? Please?" She begged and the man, Renkotsu, shot her glare.

"No. You might accidentally kill her, or purposely, who knows. But we need her alive now." Kagome looked to the ground and handed Renkotsu the needle. Sango forced herself back as far she could.

"Kouga, hold her still!" Renkotsu spat. The man, that held Sango, yanked her down onto the bed and held her shoulders down. Sango now had the chance and she attempted to kick Kouga, but her brought his knees down on her legs. She let out a gasp of pain as his knees slammed, hard, into her shins.

She wasn't able to move any part of her body, besides her head, but that wouldn't do much good. As Renkotsu got closer and closer with the needle pointed, sweat began to form on Sango's forehead. He stood above her now and slowly stuck the needle behind her collar bone. Whatever was in that needle made Sango black out in a matter of seconds, her struggles ceasing.

Kouga picked her up and slung her over his shoulder and the group proceeded down the stairs and to the car that was hidden behind a large oak tree.

They all got into their seats and Kouga threw Sango into the back beside Kagome. As the drove down the lonely rode, Kagome was ordered to bind Sango's wrist's and ankles with rope, but that took at least twenty minutes to complete. When she was finally done and Renkotsu was calm, the three of them were silent, until Kouga looked back to find Kagome constantly poking Sango in the shoulder.

"Kagome, please don't poke the drugged victim." Kouga sighed and Kagome stopped, but continued once again when Kouga looked away.

o no! poor sango :( lol kagomes a retard :P but please R&R!
