Summary:

Inuyasha is in jail and he gets a lawyer.

Chapter 10: Jail cells and Naraku?

Inuyasha silently sat on his cot in the jail cell he was placed in. His cell mate stared at him almost hungrily. The past few hours whirled around in his head. He was still in shock from all that had happened.

"Hey kid." A man with short brown hair sat on his bed next to him.

"What?" He said softly.

"What is a young man like you doing in a place like this?"

"..."

"I know you can talk. You just spoke to me, so speak up. I can't hear you!"

"..."

"How about this . . . I tell you why I'm here and then you tell me why you are in here? I guess I should start off with my name. You can call me Hojo. Now what is your name?"

"Inuyasha."

"Well, Inuyasha, I'm in here because a son of a bitch screwed me over. You see kid, and we were doing things for example like smuggling drugs and people when he decided that I was no longer worth any value to him. So he set up to take the fall." Hojo moved some of Inuyasha's hair behind of his ear.

"Why are you telling me all this?" Inuyasha took the opportunity to scout away from him while Hojo took the moment to think about his question.

"It's strange really. You look a lot like the bastard that screwed me over."

"I do?" Inuyasha said hesitantly.

"You sure gotta admit, boy, you sure do look a lot alike that bastard." A man in a cell across from them spoke. "And that sure isn't a good thing. Most of the people here have been screwed over by him." Another man from that same cell spoke.

"Don't mind Totosai, my name is Myoga, and I haven't heard you say what you're in here for."

"Yea, kid, speak up! I told you my story now you tell me yours." Hojo grabbed Inuyasha's chin and forced him to look at him. "Maybe you were screwed over by him, too."

"Who is 'him'?" Inuyasha asked.

"Tell us why you are in here first. Then we will tell you who he is?" Hojo smiled while the others nodded in agreement.

"I killed my brother."

"You killed your brother. Why in hell would you do that? I heard of siblings fighting and getting into arguments but never killing each other."

"Because he was a very bad man. He tried killing my friends and he had kept me a prisoner inside of my own room. He would beat the crap out of me and he loved to hurt a lot of people. He even went so far as to kill our parents."

"He sounds really horrendous. What was that bastard's name?"

"Sesshomaru Tashio."

All of the jail cells in the area went completely silent. Inuyasha turned his head so he could look at his toes. When he looked back up again all of the people in his viewing range had, their mouths wide open. Time in that instant seem to freeze. Everyone was in a trance like state. The trance was broken when an inmate was being escorted back to his cell.

"Everyone! I got good news! I just saw on the news that Sesshomaru Tashio was finally murdered!" The whole jail house within hearing range broke out into cheers of triumph.

"Kid, I guess you all beat us to the chase!" Hojo patted Inuyasha on the back. "You'll definitely fit in here! Tell us how you killed him!"

"Did you torture him?"

"Did he die slow and painfully?"

"Well I . . . " Inuyasha was starting to feel a bit over whelmed.

"You chopped him into pieces!"

"You neutered him!"

"You choked him!"

"Actually I ran a sword through him from behind." Inuyasha looked away from them in shame.

"Cowardly, but hey it got the job done!" Hojo grinned. "Shit, the bad things he did to us must pale in comparison on what he did to you. Don't worry you'll be safe here."

"But I still killed him."

"Go ahead and get some sleep kid. I'm sure the press will hound you when they get the chance. You'll need your energy to deal with them." Hojo got off of Inuyasha's bed and walked over to his own. He watched silently as Inuyasha laid down and rolled over onto his side facing the wall.

A tall man with dark brown hair and red colored eyes sat inside of an interrogation room. He wore a dark purple business suit. He rapped his fingers against the metal table. He was waiting for the person he came here to see to appear in the room.

The room was plain. Nothing special was in there. Only things of value were on the man himself. He smiled. This was certainly not a normal everyday occurrence. Nothing was going to fail him now.

It has been more than twenty hours since the death of Sesshomaru Tashio. He remembered why he was here. It started a little more than ten hours ago when a group of young injured people approached him.

Flashback

He sat talking on his cell phone behind his hand crafted red oak desk. He could hear his secretary screaming at someone who refused to leave. He decided to hang up his phone when the door of his office swung open. A group of people followed by his secretary Kanna fell into a dog pile on his floor.

"What the meaning of this?" he asked.

They quickly picked themselves up and lined themselves up in front of him. He looked at them impassively. There was one man with blue eyes and next to him stood a woman with red hair and green eyes. There was a man in a monk's robe and he was injured, a woman with long brown hair, a woman in a green school's uniform, and a woman in a nurse's uniform.

"Sorry sir, they got past me." Kanna bowed.

"State your business."

"Sir, we would like you to be a lawyer for our friend." The woman in the green school uniform spoke.

"I don't know who you people are, but I can tell by the look's of it you can't afford to hire me."

"How rude of us my name is Miroku, this here is Sango, Kagome, Kouga, Ayame, and that is Rin. I think you'll accept our proposition as soon as you hear what we have to say." The one named Miroku stepped forward a couple of steps in front of his companions.

"State your business. I'm a very busy man." He was annoyed.

"Have you heard of Sesshomaru Tashio's murder on the news today?"

"What is your point?" he said in a bored tone.

"They are trying our friend for his murder."

"Sounds interesting so far . . . keep talking." The man watched as a few of the people lined up in front of him shifted in their positions nervously.

"We have evidence of Sesshomaru Tashio being involved in crooked deals, murders, and rape and molestation of a child. To top it off we are witnesses to his death!"

"And who is this person you wish for me to defend?" curiosity seeped into to his voice.

"It is Sesshomaru Tashio's younger brother, Inuyasha Tashio." Miroku spoke seriously. The man leaned forward in his chair. He rested his elbows on the desk top.

"Why would Sesshomaru Tashio's own brother kill him?"

"We won't show you our information until you accept our offer!" Kagome cried out. 'You have to accept our offer. Hang in there, Inuyasha!'

"I think your pulling my leg." The man returned to his previous position in his chair. He narrowed his eyes as the one called Kouga walked forward toward him.

"Here." Kouga places a neatly holed note on his desk. "If you change your mind this note tells where they are holding him and it contains a number where you can reach us at for more information for this case. Just think about it." He turned around and left. The others looked down toward the floor and followed him out.

"Thank you for your time." Kagome bowed. She was the last one to leave the office. Left behind in the office with him was Kanna.

"Sir, I know I'm out of place, but I think you should help them. This case is going to be big. Just think about how much publicity our firm will get. News stations across the globe will have their eyes tuned onto this case. Sesshomaru Tashio was a widely known man. Think about it." Kanna bowed slightly before closing the door silently behind her.

End

That was how he was then convinced to join the case. The door to the room which he was sitting in opened. A young man with long silvery colored hair was being ushered in by two armed police men. They sat him down in the chair before leaving.

"I'm guessing your wondering why we are here. Am I correct?"He asked. Inuyasha nodded his head. "I will be your lawyer for your upcoming trail."

"Who are you?" Inuyasha asked.

"You may call me Naraku."

"Naraku?"

"Yes, in order to make a sufficient case you need to give me all of the information you can surrounding your brother's murder . . . " Inuyasha flinched. "And the events that lead up to that point."

"I killed him."

"I know that much. Tell me why you killed him."

"I just snapped. I mean he was going to kill my friends and I-I couldn't take it any more."

"Let's start from the beginning shall we. Now tell me how this all started."

"From what I remember it all started with our parents' deaths. He murdered them both on the same night when I was little. I guess I should tell you about the curse placed on our family hundreds of years ago."

"Do you think Naraku will accept our offer?" Kagome sighed. They where at Sango's house. Her house was on ten acres of land. On the land she had her house and a dojo for martial arts and other fighting styles.

The television was on some random station. Many of them were playing board games such as chess, sorry, and checkers. Some where even playing random card games. All the while Kouga was pacing on his cell phone.

"I hope he dose for Inuyasha's sake. I heard it is Jaken pressing charges for Sesshomaru's murder . . . " he paused while those that were listening nodded their heads in aknowledgement. "Personally I think that Jaken wanted to be Sesshomaru's lover, but he was denied."

"Of course you would think that, pervert." Sango narrowed her eyes at him.

"That's enough children, I have good news." Kouga hung up his cell phone. He walked in front the group.

"What is it?" Ayame asked.

"Naraku has accepted our offer and is going to visit Inuyasha right now." The group cheered. " And he asks for us to meet him with our evidence twenty-five hours from now."

"Kagome, why are you crying?" Sango placed her hand on the crying girl's shoulder.

"I'm just so happy that Inuyasha finally stands a chance at court." Kagome smiled.

"We all should be."
