Get Lucky

Chapter 2: All Ends with Beginnings

Kagura hit the freeway still trying to shake off the morning encounters. She had to admit it wasn't something she was used to, after all it was her first one night stand. Part of her wished she atleast knew his name for memory sake. She resigned her thoughts and focused on the road. Today marked her first day as the Chief Financial Officer of the biggest printing company in the country. Indeed it is her first decent job with a hefty pay. She then decided she had no time wondering about the mysterious guy she slept with the night before but instead she must focus on her first step towards the corporate ladder.

She found the building with no trouble at all and when she entered, a young woman in her mid 20s greeted her. "Good morning Ms. Kagewaki! I'm Kagome Higurashi and I've been hired by Mr. Tashio as your assistant,"

Kagura raised a brow. "Interesting, didn't even start yet and I have my own assistant," "Hello, Ms. Higurashi, I look forward to working with you." she said handing the girl her purse. "I'd like to meet this Mr. Tashio,"

Kagome smiled. "Same here Ms. Kagewaki! But I'm afraid Mr. Tashio is not in yet. I'll show you to your office, "

Kagura nodded and followed the shorter girl. Not bad.

They arrived shortly to Kagura's office. The office itself consist of glass windows overlooking the city, a large mahogany table with papers stacked already, and computer set up next to it, though the room is yet to be furnished, Kagura's already liking the size and she made mental notes on what could be done to the room so it suits more to her liking.

"Here's your schedule today Ms. Kagewaki, I also organized the papers that needs to be filed before giving it to the CEO."

Kagura grimaced. Work already? "Alright, thanks Kagome,"

Kagome smiled. "My office is just outside your office, if you need anything just give me a beep!"

Kagura could tell that this was Kagome's first job and was afraid to mess it up. She just smiled and dismissed the girl.

Kagura settled to her table and picked up the schedule she have for today, which consist of two meeting, one a financial meeting and a meeting with the CEO.

"How the hell do they expect me give out a full financial meeting when it's my first day?!" she growled in annoyance, staring at the piece of paper then noticing the stack of paper which she assumed was the budget plan from last month that she needs to review now before the meeting.

She picked up the stack and start reviewing the expense reports. "Easy peasy." she sighed.

An hour passed and thank god for her skills, she managed to finish a portion of the report, she was annoyed that she was already given the task to do the report when today was her first day and still have no experience with the company's financial expenses though she was thankful that she understood the papers quickly and she had no trouble creating the report, though she wished she had more time to organize it, and with that she wants to have a little talk with her so called boss, whom she's yet to meet. I'll show that bastard, whoever he is! Bring it on!

Her phone rang after a few moments of silence and she hit the speaker. "Yes Kagome?"

"Mr. Tashio is here and wants to meet you."

This should be interesting, meeting the boss. "Sure let him in,"

A man dressed in a business suit with long silver mane, and amber eyes walked in. "Yo, Kagura I heard you're working for me now."

"InuYasha?! You're MY boss?"

"Keh! Didn't think I had it in me?"

Kagura rolled her eyes. "No."

"Keh!"

Kagura laughed. Kagura and InuYasha were college friends, who attended UCLA for business together. InuYasha was the troublemaker and always skipped class, never in a million years would Kagura have thought she'd be working for him.

"I'm just playing," she gave him a short hug. "Look at you Mr. CEO!"

InuYasha scoffed. "Kagura, you're pathetic, you don't even know your bosses. My brother is the CEO, the asshole inherited the company from our Father."

"You have a brother?" she raised a quizzical brow.

"Baka, he was the one who hired you!" InuYasha sat on the couch parallel to Kagura's table.

"Well I've never met the guy, I didn't know this was your family's company. Small world eh? What do you do here?"

InuYasha studied the room. "I help Sesshoumaru around. The bastard don't trust me enough to be in your position. I heard they've hunted you down for your financial skills."

Kagura scoffed. "Is that so?" Maybe this Sesshoumaru and I will get along after all.

"Well I see he's already drenched you with paper work," he said pointing out the stack of paper that was on Kagura's desk.

"Yes. And you're disturbing me. It was nice talking to you, InuYasha but I would like to finish this before your brother fire me for not doing my job."

"Well for one thing, he's not even here. So don't even hustle finishing that report, that meeting will probably be cancelled." he shrugged.

"You're fucking with me, really?" Kagura slapped her pen down.

"I'm not. I called the bastard about half an hour ago, and he is running late."

Kagura rolled her eyes growing annoyed. "Whatever, might as well finish it."

Inuyasha laughed. "This oughta be interesting, with your temper and his attitude. I'm already praying for this company."

Kagura rolled her eyes. "Bye, InuYasha,"

Inuyasha shrugged. "Well alright, I have to get going anyways, but I just came up here to say hi and come down later to the conference room around 10 o'clock, the bastards late so I might as well introduce you to the board."

Kagura sighed now she's back to working on the expense report, another hour and a half had passed and she completely finished the whole report and presentation. "Well that wasn't so bad," she muttered giving herself a pat on the back for a job well done. She caught a glimpse of the digital clock on the corner and it was ten minutes before 10 o'clock. She cursed herself for almost being late again then hurried out to the door.

"Kagome! We have a meeting, come with me? I'm being introduced to the board and I'm not going there alone." she called without stopping. "We have ten minutes!"

"Alright, I'm right behind you, the conference room is down the hall then to your left."

Kagura walked with a fast pace and met with Inuyasha who was talking to his secretary, he waved as soon as he saw Kagura. "You're just in time, let's go."

Kagura sat down by Inuyasha. "Alright, everybody please settle down." He waited until everybody sat down and then he continued. "As we all know, our last chief financial officer had quit, and last couple months we had a hard time trying to balance out our financial needs and I'm glad to introduce to you our new CFO, Ms. Kagura Kagewaki."

Everyone in the room applaud as Kagura stood up from her chair. "I've known Ms. Kagewaki since college, and I can assure you all she can do this job better than anyone…" Inuyasha trailed off and everyone's eyes shot towards the sliding door when someone entered the room.

A tall man with long silver mane and golden amber eyes resembling Inuyasha has entered the room. Kagura looked up from Inuyasha and to the mysterious stranger who had just entered the room. Her crimson red eyes met his golden ones.

"You…" Kagura froze. It's him!

The man's face lit up upon seeing her face.

"Ah, Sesshoumaru, you're here!" Inuyasha called. "I was just introducing to everyone our new chief financial officer, Ms. Kagura Kagewaki. Ms. Kagewaki, this is my brother, Sesshoumaru Tashio, CEO of Tashio Printing Inc."

Sesshoumaru averted his eyes from Inuyasha then focused on Kagura, who was still staring at him. "I look forward to working with you Ms. Kagewaki."
