Chapter Twenty-one
2011 New York
Kagome figured the best way to learn what the woman was here for was to offer to help her. "I'm alright but I'm terribly sorry to have bumped into you. Let me make it up to you, where do you need to go?"
"That's alright... Don't worry about it. I'm just here to visit Mr. Stark. I know where I'm going."
"Oh well that's alright, I need to go up too."
Kagome kept her tone bright and bubbly, she needed to sell the bubbly baby she looked. "The papers I dropped are for Ms. Pepper. She's suppose to be upstairs with him."
To someone with less experience her expression would have seemed friendly without hesitation, but Kagome spotted the mild irritation. Internally grinning she wondered what was going on that an Assassin would be visited Mr. Stark. She hoped the woman was just a messenger rather than the message. After all stopping someone this skilled would be the equivalent of taking a tank to her Hara identity, the only fighting skills Hara had on record was the Judo black belt.
Waving the woman forwards toward the elevators they had collided on the way towards the woman reluctantly took lead. Following her into the elevator she noted the brief case in the woman's hands, then crowding her slightly trying to seem like an unskilled kid she insured that while the woman could get a hit on her it wouldn't be a one hit take out, she would be able to respond and struggle.
She could see the flare of unease in the woman's eyes, even if her body remained in a calm normal posture. "I'm so glad didn't I hurt you when I bumped into you. I already have one powerful guy mad at me here I don't need to make someone else mad at me. The jerk in question tried to get me to leave with him at the company Christmas party and he wouldn't let me say no gracefully so I got rude. Then last time I saw him he threatened my job."
She could see the unease turn into confusion, the woman in front of her looked unsure now, probably wondering if the positioning of her body had merely been coincidence. "Oh my god. I'm sorry, Kagome Hara at your service."
The elevator dinged and the doors opened allowing the skilled woman to avoid introducing herself. Following her out again Kagome could see the woman hadn't lied she did know where she was going. They reached the end of the hall, the red head walked right by the secretary, the woman was startled and Kagome wasn't sure if was because she knew her or not, so she just nodded in greeting and followed her in.
The startled exclamation told her Mr. Stark knew the woman and she relaxed slightly, this Natalia hadn't gone on the attack so Stark was probably safe.
Honnorable mention goes to Silversun XD for being one of the best reviewers.
Now Lets do the Twelve Reveiws = Four Chapters again. How bad do you want them?
