Kitaka: My last chappy. I feel like I am going to retire or something.eek!!!

Jigen: Yeah right.you have what??? 45 years until then?

Kitaka: So..

Lupin: wow, 45 years?

Kitaka: Yep.I am not old.yet..

Lupin: I resent that!

Kitaka: Yes, sir!

Lupin: Err!!!!!!!!!! Don't call me that! *starts chasing Kitaka around*

Sesshy: Anyway..on with the fic..that is if I can get the author and Lupin to stop fighting..this could prove difficult.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"You've grown Sesshy." The ex-Mafia member commented. "You were only fifteen." He answered, and cleared any suspicion she had.
"Why Jigen? What happened?! Tell me Jigen." He paused.
"Sesshy, you don't want to know."
"But Jigen; I have to. I have to know why, why they killed my family, and were so intent on giving Arsene the same destiny. Jigen, tell me." By now, Sesshoutsu was face to face with the gunman, pleading for an answer.
"Sorry Sesshy, you'll have to find out from someone else."
"Why wont you tell me Jigen!? Seriously, it couldn't have been that bad."
"But it is." Jigen admitted. He stood up, and kissed Sesshoutsu on the cheek. "If I told you, I'd have to kill you." He whispered into her ear. He smirked, then left the room.

~~~

Sesshoutsu had been wondering why Jigen wouldn't tell her about her past. It felt so strange to be around him lately. The kiss was strange, but she couldn't lie to herself. She felt something for him. That is the part that scared her. She was supposed to be chasing after Lupin; wasn't she!?
There was a knock at the door. Sesshoutsu could recognize it. It wasn't a knock asking for entrance, but more of a warning. She could tell that it was Jigen. At that, who else would it have been? Jigen opened the door and walked in. He sat down in a chair, and absorbed Sesshoutsu's presence. He was a different person now. Not as cool, and calm as before. That part frightened her. She hated it when Jigen was like that. He wasn't himself.
'Why am I here!?' She thought to herself.

~~~

Maybe it was the rain's cascade over the building, that gloomy day. Maybe it was how she felt about Lupin, and her desire to see him happy, regardless of the cost. 'I've got to get out of here.' She thought to herself. Sesshoutsu was finally leaving. No broken promises, no betrayal, nothing but the agonizing truth. Lupin didn't love her anymore. She couldn't leave him with the truth, only to haunt him. She had to leave before anything else she did set off the balance of his world.
"Where are you going Sesshy?" Jigen asked, seeing Sesshoutsu open the door.
"I am leaving Jigen." Jigen stood up.
"You cant go!" He held her arms.
"Sorry; I have to." Sesshoutsu shook his hands off of her arms.
"C'mon Sesshy, just one last hand of poker!?" Please!!!!"
"You've got to know when to walk Jigen." She winked, and walked off, ripping a hole in the gunman's heart. 'I have screwed up their lives enough. This way, I can get on with my life, and so can they.'

~~

Jigen sat down on the couch. Though stricken by what Sesshoutsu had said, he noticed a letter on the coffee table. It was sealed in the same envelope as Fujiko's had been.
"Bitch." He stated. Despite his hatred for Fujiko, Jigen had to know what was inside the envelope. He opened it, then read it's contents. He noticed Lupin's signature at the bottom, after realizing the pure irony of the page.

~~

"Sesshoutsu." he yelled, running down the hallway; Lupin's letter in hand. "Sesshoutsu!"
Jigen finally reached the hotel's entrance, "Sesshy!" He called, but to no avail. The woman was long gone. Jigen sank to his knees, hatred in his eyes. "Fujiko." He stated darkly. His eyes narrowed and he looked almost possessed.

~~

"Where is Lupin?" Jigen demanded entering Fujiko's room. His hat tipped up just enough to see his glazed-over brown eyes. He was in the red, and was not gun-shy. Not in the least bit.
"I.I don't know." Fujiko was frightened by the ex-Mafia member.
"Don't lie to me." He pushed past Fujiko on his way to the suite's bedroom.
"Uh!" Fujiko stated, in her bratty tone.
"Lupin." He called, opening the doors. "Lupin, she is gone." He lifted Lupin by his collar. "Did you hear me Lupin!? Sesshoutsu is gone."
