Chapter Four

The Turnaround Black Mail

Everyone, setting in the bleachers, either at Bankotsu's game, or Jakotsu's cheerleading completion, just waiting for the both to start.

As it turns out, Sango and Miroku end up at Jakotsu's cheerleading completion, to see if Bankotsu shows up or not. While Inuyasha and Kagome, on the other hand, are at Hiten's game.

Abi and Kouga get some food for the game. As Naraku, Takemaru, and Byakuya are spying in the hallway; the same one where Inuyasha and Jakotsu where making a deal. However this time, it's not Inuyasha and Jakotsu, it's Hiten and Bankotsu.

Hiten, walking down the hall, to the lock room, sees a flipped picture on the ground and picks it up. He sees a B +/heart J in the back. (What in the world…) Now kind of confused, he flips over the picture to see Jakotsu and Bankotsu kissing on it [AN: Because remember Naraku's crew changed it].

He pauses for a moment staring at the picture. He hears footsteps down the hallway to see Byakuya casually walking up to him.

"What's that?" He asked.

Hiten snarl's at the picture, starting to get angry.

"Oh, you know what; I think…. I think that picture belongs to Bankotsu. He must had accidently dropped it somewhere. He was talking to Takemaru and Naraku about a missing picture before".

Hiten looks up at Byakuya. "Speaking of which, where is that little bastard at anyway?"

"Oh, yeah, you didn't know, Bankotsu told us that he was going to his boyfriend's cheer competition. So is it true, is Bankotsu really a queer?"

(Bankotsu went to Jakotsu's cheer competition, without telling me anything, huh? I knew there was something wrong with him. He's a queer huh; it's a no- wonder- why he isn't telling me anything, anymore). Hiten thought.

"How the hell should I know? I can't believe he would go behind our backs and not tell us". Hiten, now shaking his fist a bit, as his anger rolls out. (Bankotsu- you lying fag).

Hiten begins to stomp off, as Byakuya disappears into the shadows; just to see Bankotsu walking up to the locker room.

Hiten pushes him into the locker's in the hallway; quickly, red- eyes, and just as pissed as ever. "We need to talk. Now!"

"What's wrong Hiten?" Bankotsu asked. (Oh, no, don't tell me, he's still mad about what happened before). At that his eyes widen, as he starts to apologize, but before he could, Hiten caught him off guard.

"What's wrong with me, what the hell's wrong with you?" He glared.

Bankotsu knew sooner or later it was going to have to come to this point, he sighs now more nervous than ever before. "Well, actually there's something I need to talk to you about as well.

"Oh really, would it have anything to deal with this", Hiten, holding up the picture he found.

Bankotsu looks at the picture and drops his jaw, now kind of scared about what got Hiten so angry. "How did you?"

Shoving him back to locker, Hiten sneers. You know, you didn't have to go around the sneak behind our backs like that, and not tell us. Shit, I thought we were team mates, I thought you were my friend".

Bankotsu asked nervous, but a little angry at the same time. "But- I- I am. Who says that picture is mine anyway?"

"Well obviously, it's says it plain and clean in the back", Hiten now showing him the back. "Oh, don't worry, Byakuya told me everything. Besides, I don't know if there's anyone else around here who would have a picture like this. Besides the back of it, is proof enough".

Bankotsu drops his jaw a little. "But that's not mine, Jakotsu and I never-".

"How can you say that. There's dead- proof and evidence right here!" Yelled Hiten.

Bankotsu swallows. "What do you mean by, Byakuya told you everything".

"Everything!" Hiten bellowed.

"Wait a minute, he couldn't have, they're the ones trying to set us up. I bet you any money that, that picture's a fake". "I mean I do have a picture that I lost a while ago, but that one's not mine". Bankotsu trying to support with the truth.

"You're nothing but lies Bankotsu", Hiten roared. "Byakuya told me pacifically that, that picture is yours. He told me that this was the picture you lost while ago".

"It's true, this is exactly what I came to talk to you about", Bankotsu put in, trying to defend himself.

"Save your bullshit, you're band from the team, I had enough of your little stupid fag-drama already. You know I may hate queers, but I hate them more, when I find out it's my best friend, lying to me, all that time". He steams away, leaving Bankotsu to his knees.

They both hear drums play and fans cheering.

"Great, now I'm late, you know what, do even come. I don't want you here. Go screw off with your new fag-lover", at that Hiten left, and ran to the locker room to finish getting ready, and heads out into the open filed".

The couch shakes his head, but just leads Hiten on to the game. "You're late Hiten".

Jakotsu, running around looking for Inuyasha, stops to see Bankotsu there. He runs up to him, and kneels down, trying to comfort his friend.

"Bankotsu, are you… alright?" Jakotsu asked.

"Just leave, will you", Bankotsu snaps.

Jakotsu eyes grow wide, he's never seen Bankotsu this angry before. So he tries to hug him and pat his back this time.

"Bankotsu-"

Bankotsu lefts up his head, knowing that a few tears still willed up in his eyes, he says it again. "Just leave me alone, and get the hell out of here".

Jakotsu, feeling hurt, slowly get's up, and walks away. (He'll tell me what's wrong when he calms down a bit).

While Bankotsu sits there and pounders about his thoughts. The others are out on the field winning.
