Genetics Chapter 6: Seeing Old Friends
"Hey Kagome, over here!" Sango yelled and waved. Kagome saw her and pulled Inuyasha by his arm to the booth that Sango and Miroku occupied. The café was dark and only they were there.
"It's a good thing your family owns this place Miroku." Kagome said once she got to the table.
"Yeah or else we wouldn't have anywhere else to hang out." Sango added.
Inuyasha walked timidly behind Kagome and remained in the shadows once they were at the booth.
"So Kagome, where's Inuyasha?" Miroku asked looking from her to the white- haired guy behind her.
"Right here." She said, grabbing Inuyasha's arm and pulling him into the booth. Sango and Miroku stared in fear and shock at their friend's claws, eyes, hair, and his dog-ears.
"W-What?" Miroku stuttered.
"I was captured and genetically altered." Inuyasha told them. They relaxed and tried to get over their shock.
"So that's where you've been." Miroku said. "Anyway it's good to see you again man."
"Same here. The life of a genetically altered assassin is a lonely one."
"A-Assassin?" Sango stuttered. Inuyasha realized what he had said and looked down to avoid their stares. He fidgeted with his claws as a long silence fell between the group.
~ Inu's POV ~
I felt so guilty, so bad about what I was and what I had been doing for the past two years. Even though I wasn't looking I could feel their stares. I closed my eyes, hoping to disappear when I felt something touch my hand. I looked and realized that it was Kagome's hand. I tilted my head and looked at her through my bangs.
"It's alright." She whispered and smiled at me. I stared into her eyes and couldn't help but smile back and feel comforted by her. I looked to Sango and Miroku and saw that they weren't scared anymore.
"Why are you an assassin?" Miroku asked. I was about to answer when Kagome spoke before I could.
"He's forced to by the agency that made him a hanyou." She said. "And they plan on locking him up again after they've collected data on him."
"Well we'll just have to stop them." Sango spoke up. "I mean they sound like assholes that need to be stopped."
"Yeah we'll do whatever it takes." Miroku agreed. I smiled a small smile, but frowned when I heard the pay phone ring. Miroku answered it. He frowned.
"Hey Inuyasha, do you know a Tatsumaku?"
I froze and stared at the phone. I slowly got up and took it from his hand.
"What do you want?" I growled.
"Come outside. The boss has sent an assignment for you."
"What if I don't?"
"Then we take control of you and you kill the humans in the booth with your own claws."
I growled and hung up the phone.
"I uh... have to go. Could you two take Kagome back to my apartment? She has a key and knows the way."
Miroku nodded and Kagome looked at me, her eyes full of worry.
"W-Where are you going?" she asked.
"Don't worry, I'll be alright." I said reassuringly. "Just stay with Miroku and Sango and lock the apartment when you get back."
She nodded and I walked outside and around the corner of the building.
"What's my assignment?" I growled as I leaned against the wall.
"Kill the biological scientist, Kaede." Tatsumaku said stepping out of the shadows. "Get in the van."
I nodded and climbed in. The van started and it shut off five minutes later. The doors opened and I climbed out looking around. We were in the richer part of town. I looked at the house and noticed a light on. I jumped, breaking the window, and landed in front of the old lady. I was about to attack, when she threw something at me. Purple electricity surrounded me and ran through my body. I looked at the woman, gritting my teeth so that I wouldn't scream from the pain. My eyes widened as two arrows pierced my chest and shoulder. I growled and ripped the woman in two. I pulled out the arrows and was breathing heavily when the agents came to clean up.
"Go back to your apartment One Zero One. We'll call you when you're needed again."
I glared and ran towards my apartment, the pain still flaring in my body. It started to storm as I jumped from rooftop to rooftop. The thunder echoed loud in my ears, but I kept running. I got to the apartment and flung open the window and crawled in as lightening flashed behind me. I was bleeding badly from my wounds and I felt dizzy from the blood loss. The light turned on and I looked up and saw Kagome's frightened face. I felt weak and fell to the floor.
"Inuyasha!"
I heard her cry my name and felt her arms wrap around me.
"Ka...gome...." I choked out before the darkness took me.
