They said that it would feel like a tingle in the back of his head, or like a sudden realization. Sesshomaru had waited 20 years and hadn't felt it once. He was beginning to get concerned. He was pretty sure he had travelled the entire American mainland, but had yet to feel Rin near him. He wouldn't give up his search, but he still had things to attend to. Like his empire. He had long since annexed the West into Western Japan, a separate entity from the Japanese Republic. He also ran several million dollar companies, as well as billions in stocks. He would make sure that Rin would want for nothing and live like a queen in the modern world. She would be his Empress. Speaking of million dollar companies, as CEO, he still had the mundane tasks of going to company parties, and entertaining foreign business partners.

To be fair, it wasn't the American's fault that they were so annoying. Not only were a large majority of his partners human, but obnoxious humans at that. Americans were just like that in his experience. He always wondered how it is that he would end up getting dragged out with them to get drinks. He, as a 2,000 year old daiyokai, had an enormous alcohol tolerance and didn't often find himself under the influence. One of his associates was having a meeting in Michigan. He hadn't been to the Lower Peninsula at all so this would be a new experience for him. Of course, with humans, after a meeting he was dragged out to drink, but something told him this would be a night to remember (or so the other businessmen had convinced him).

'How did it get to this?' He found himself asking internally as he was dragged to a strip club. Club Pleasers*,read the enormous neon sign outside of the establishment. The rest of the group was more than likely familiar with the place as they were all giddy and excited to go in. One of the Canadian businessmen, who's name slipped his mind, clasped him on the shoulder and swore to him that he'd have a good time. "C'mon , you're gonna have a great time, this I can promise you, and as it's your first time here, I can guarantee a treat!" Sesshomaru internally cringed but said nothing. The men all pulled out their wallets to show the bouncer their IDs. Sesshomaru did the same as he stepped up to the enormous bull demon standing at the door. If Sesshomaru had been anyone else, he might have been intimidated by him, as the demon stood at about 8 feet tall, and his biceps were the size of Sesshomaru's head, and strained against his black security polo. He took Sesshomaru's ID and scanned over it with the light at the bottom of his walkie talkie. He grunted and handed it back. "Enjoy your evening ." he told Sesshomaru in his heavy timbre. Sesshomaru gave no reply, and stepped into the club.

Inside the air was full of fake smoke and the scent of omega demons permeated. There was a stage set up to his right,the dancers on it human females and demonesses. In front of it were many chairs and booths set up to watch the dancers, all of them filled with patrons, hooting and hollering in excitement for the dancers. Loud rap music filled the air as the women on stage twirled around the polls and gyrated their bodies on the patrons seated closest to the stage. Sesshomaru was not impressed in the slightest, but he held his impassive face as he was led to their booth, also near the stage.

One of his American colleagues was seated closest to him, on his left as he sat on the rightmost end. He turned to him and smiled. "I'm glad we reserved this VIP booth two weeks ago. We had to use your name to get it, so you get the dance when the headliner comes out. It's about that time!" 'Wait, WHAT' Sesshomaru looked down at his Patek watch and saw that it was 11:59 pm, and he hadn't even realised it was that late. Before he could reply, the lights went out, and more smoke poured out of the machines on either side of the stage and a voice came over the loudspeaker.

"Its officially Friday, so you know what that means! Ladies and gentlemen, your favorite dancer, BLACK DIAMOND!" The crowd erupted in screams and those who were standing rushed the stage and started throwing money, all before the dance even appeared. Apparently the main pole went all the way up to another floor, because there was a hole in the ceiling and a dancer slid down the pole into a split, and the screams got even louder. The dancer was a female hanyo, and a dog at that. An African wild dog if he wasn't mistaken. She wore a black leotard studded in silver rhinestones. Her hair was a long cinnamon colored Bush, with lighter caramel colored streaks in it. Her body was curvy, with large breasts and wide hips and an enormous ass. She was attractive surely enough. The song started as she slid back up from her split.

In case you didn't know, Juicy that nigga

I keep me two hoes like that nigga Jack Tripper

I shoot in they face like that boy Reggie Miller

And I kill that pussy like my name Jack the Ripper

Baby, I'm horny and I ain't too proud to beg

Instead show me the bed

Early morning breakfast and head

And I got Tina, Tasha and Toya, I call 'em the triple threat

All them bitches be soaking when this the first night them bitches met

She rolled her hips to the baseline, and pulled herself up to have her legs form a V over her head, and pantomimed shooting at the crowd. She made suggestive movements over her crotch with one hand while the other held the pole, before dropping her legs to catch the pole in between them. She rolled her hips to the beat again and licked her lips. She picked her feet back up off the ground and climbed the pole again and span.

Sesshomaru could feel something pulling in the back of his eyes. It felt like he was getting the world's worst hangover, and everything seemed to slow down. The world shrunk down to only the dancer on stage, and the way she moved. There was something drawing him to her.

And she loves the attention

That she get when she moves, yeah

Showin' out with her home girls

Hypnotizing all the dudes, oh

He actually did feel hypnotized by the way her hips rolled and the glint of the jewels and glitter on her collarbones as she spun around the poll. He was drawn back to reality as she got down off the poll, and walked the stairs down to where his booth was. Of course the spotlight followed her and soon she was right in front of him. Behind her was a line of bottle girls, and right in front, in shiny black patent leather with a sparkler in her hand stood Rin.

The song is She Knows by Ne Yo and Juicy J
