'Where is he?!' Called the Grand Councilwoman as she strode into the room.

'Still in hyperspace, ma'am.' Came the reply from a navigation officer.

'Well, where will he exit?' She replied acidly.

Another voice spoke up. 'We've projected his landing at quadrent 17, section zero-zero-five, area fifty-one.' The main screen of the room zoomed into the described place, rotating slightly as it went. 'On a planet called,' the secretary hesitated, 'Eearth.'

'Bring an expert on this planet in here immediately.' Councilwoman Kikyou responded briskly. It's a wonder these people functioned without her. She looked at the little blue-and-green planet hovering on the screen as it slowly panned in. 'What is that?' She questioned, gesturing towards the vast amount of blue on the projected landing area.

'Water.' Responded the navigation officer promptly. 'Most of the planet is covered in it.'

Councilwoman Kikyou smiled slightly in relief. 'Perfect. The creature cannot survive in water, its molecular density is too great.'

The relief spread around the room with smiles and nods, before an alarm went off, the projected landing prediction had completed.

On a tiny island, right in the middle of the planet's largest sea.

'Damn.' Cursed the navigation officer.

'Of course.' Cursed the Councilwoman, rolling her eyes. She examined the blue sphere for a moment, before speaking again. 'We'll have to gas the planet.-'

'Hold it right there, Councilwoman!'

Councilwoman Kikyou hesitated, turning to the source of the noise, and had to search for a moment before thinking to look down.

A green creature had materialised around the height of her knee, and he had already started talking. 'Earth, is a protected wildlife reserve.' It was impressive the way he looked down his nose at someone who was over three times his height. 'Scholars and preservationists are trying to rebuild the endangered mosquito population there.' He produced a chart from a sachel, before rummaging around some more. 'There's a reason no one's allowed in quadrant 17, the whole thing's one massive nature reserve. Or maybe it was before your time.' He sneered.

Councilwoman Kikyou ignored the jibe. 'You mean you are the expert?'

'Of course! Agent Jaken, reporting for duty. I've been studying the planet Earth for many of its years, and am the most respected in my field.'

Councilwoman Kikyou fought the urge to roll her eyes, instead turning to face the projection of the earth again. 'What if we just destroy that island, causing no damage to the rest of the planet?'

'No, you idiot!' Jaken responded, fishing around in his sachel. 'These are extremely simple, delicate creatures called "humans" that predominately inhabit there. Including on that island. The mosquito's food of choice, and it's only available there on that very planet.'

Councilwoman Kikyou's patience was running out. 'Well, what if our forces just landed there, and tracked down the creature ourselves?'

Jaken loudly and obviously rolled his eyes. 'Well there's a great idea. Let's just cause some planet-wide panic while we're at it, shall we?' He pulled out a series of slides.

'Such a quiet capture of the hanyou would require a knowledge of it that we do not have.' Councilwoman Kikyou said coldly, and for the first time Jaken looked nervous. 'Who then, would you send?'

Jaken scratched his chin. '...Does he have a brother?'

The two people strode along the well-lit corridor.

'Close grandmother, perhaps?' The significantly shorter one suggested.

Councilwoman Kikyou remained perfectly silent as she continued right down to the final door, and halted before it.

'Uh, friendly, cousin?'

She knocked three times on the heavy-set door, paused, and turned the handle.

'...' Jaken was lost for words as the door opened and they let themselves into the large office room.

It was huge, and seemed to defy the size that the outside of the ship seemed to suggest.

However considering the council chamber upstairs, well.

There was bookshelves lining the walls, yet only one half was filled with books. To their right the shelves were lined with trinkets from faraway lands, and faraway quadrants of which Jaken had never dreamed.

Towards the back of the room was a broad desk that was clear of papers, and a person sitting behind it, however the only evidence of this was the fingers that held the newspaper high, obscuring the rest of the person from sight.

Yet with the sound of rustling papers the newspaper folded itself in half, and a disinterested face appeared.

Jaken took a step back.

It was council member Sesshomaru.

'It escaped?'

'As if it comes as a surprise to you,' Councilwoman Kikyou replied acidly.

'It has the blood of the InuTaisho clan, however dirty it itself is.' Sesshomaru said disgustedly.

'Which is precisely why you will bring it back.'

Sesshomaru finally looked up at her.

'If you do this, you will have the opportunity to do with it as you please, as long as it is not turned on another person or people.'

He smiled nastily. It gave Jaken the shivers.

'Do we have a bargain, council member Sesshomaru?' Councilwoman Kikyou stood tall, as the member closed his newspaper, and smoothed it onto his desk.

'Hn.' He responded. His smile had not faded.

'But-but-but, it's a delicate planet! Who's going to, well, accompany him?' Jaken sqwaked.

The Grand Councilwoman smiled grimly. 'Only the best and most respected member of his field in the study of Earth.' She looked sideways, and down at him.

Jaken openly laughed. 'Oh, very good, Councilwoman, that's-' he looked up at her. 'Y-you're not joking?'

But by the time he had finished his sentence, she had turned on her heel and was gone.

Shaking slightly, he turned and looked at the now standing council member.

'So,' he said, the smile long gone and his eyes narrowing. 'Tell me. On what poor, defenceless planet, has that monstrosity who thinks he is of the InuTaisho clan been unleashed?'
