Blood Red Roses II

Chapter Three – Plans
Sesshomaru growled his annoyance as he paced the bedroom floor. Everyone else looked down deep in thought trying to figure out a plan of action. So far they had nothing.
"Dammit," Inuyasha muttered as he gripped the bed sheets within his claws. "Why would they do something like this at this time? If they wanted revenge, why didn't they do it earlier when we were all ready?"
"That's how they operate Inuyasha," Kirara said as her red eyes flicked over towards him. "They wait until you're most vulnerable then they strike. But why they waited for seven years is beyond me. Usually when someone exacts their revenge it's usually six months to a year later; not seven."
"Well whatever the case may be we have to get Rin and Cameron back," Sango said standing from her seat. "We don't have much time. For all we know Rin and Cameron might be dead that this very second and we're all just sitting here."
"She's not dead, she's not even harmed," Sesshomaru said looking over at her. "If she was, I would have felt it. Her heart is still beating and Cameron is just fine as well. We still have a little time. If we don't plan, going in there blind could get them both killed and us as well. Be patient Sango, we will get them back."
Sango sighed then sat letting her head drop so that her bangs cast a shadow over her eyes. "What are we going to do Sesshomaru?"
"First we'll search for any clues," Sesshomaru said picking up the silver mask that sat on the dresser again. "Then we will sniff out which way they went. I can still smell Rin's scent. It's still pretty strong and the trail should lead us straight to them. That is when we will break up into squads. I will be alone. Shippo, Kirara, Miroku, you're group one. Kagome, Sango, Inuyasha, you're group two."
"But where are you going," Kirara asked raising a brow.
"I have an old friend I need to visit," Sesshomaru said placing the mask to his face then hooking it on. He then turned to them and they all experienced the chilling shock that shot down their spins. "He may be able to give us a lead on the location that Rin and Cameron are being held in using the tracking device that is embedded within Rin's system."
"Rin has a tracking device in her?" Sango asked as her head shot up from hearing the news of the tracking device.
"When Rin and I married, I took steps because I feared that something like this would happen," Sesshomaru said. "She knows about it, she was the one who suggested that it be created for safety reasons."
"Maybe we all should consider that," Inuyasha said earning an elbow to the ribs by Kagome. "I'm saying that just in case someone tries for some random unknown reason to capture any of you. It would be the women that they would generally go after. It's a proven fact."
This earned him another elbow. "Inuyasha that is very sexist."
"But very true," Miroku defended. "I say this from knowledge. Working on the police force you get the inside on everything that goes on."
"And we can use that to our advantage," Shippo said. "Miroku can you access the police files?"
"I'd have to go to the station, why?" Miroku asked.
"You guys didn't notice the smell of doughnuts and coffee? Cops have been here. I get the feeling that the neighbours may have called the police. And if they called the police, they had to have gotten the tags and a description of the people who came and took Rin." Shippo explained pointing out good points.
"I didn't think about that," Sesshomaru said. "That's what you all will do. Shippo, Kirara, Miroku, you go to the police station and see if you can get anything. If you do, report back to me. I'll have my cell phone on me the whole time."
"And what do you want us to do," Sango asked.
"You all will follow the trail of Rin's blood. Inuyasha should be able to find it. Once you come to where it stops, and then come back. We'll all meet here at day break."
"And from there," Inuyasha asked standing up from his seat on the bed.
"We'll plan their rescue. We're bound to face obstacles like the last time. I expect that it will be more difficult this time than the last," Sesshomaru said. "Akane is not stupid by any means but she can be outsmarted. We just have to be very careful."
"Right," Kirara said springing up to her feet. "So what do you say we get going? We've got a lot of work to do and not very much time to do it."
"Kirara's right, let's go," Kagome said standing up from the seat of her bed as well.
"Then let's go," Sesshomaru said leading everyone out of the room.
They walked single file down the stairs and through the door. Once everyone was out of the house, Sesshomaru turned and locked the door behind them. He stared up at the house and sighed.
I'm coming Rin and Cameron, he thought.
I'm playing majour catch up with my updates for the next week. I'm trying to get all my stories updated at least once if not twice so that I can finish them off sooner. We're a forth of the way through this one. Only 9 chapters left. So review! Thanks loves.
