Singing Sensation
~*Ayt, the title sais it all. The squirrels, trained by Sesshomaru, from E.S.C. *ahem* gave me some encouragement for this story as well… The coffee too!*~
*Announcement!: An alliance has been formed between Evil Industries and E.S.C.
InuYasha was tied to a chair, but he ripped the ropes and had almost ripped the front door off it's hinges. So now, he was chained to his bed. He was growling at whoever came close enough. ~Why the hell are they chaining me?! I need to find Kagome!~
"InuYasha, calm down. Kagome was raped, alright?"
"She was WHAT?!"
Sakura pressed her palms against her human ears. She should've phrased that statement differently. InuYasha's eyes started to bleed red. His veins were straining against his skin, red with fury.
"Raped, InuYasha. As in kidnapped."
Somehow he calmed down, nobody had touched his Kagome. But that didn't mean that whoever had kidnapped her wouldn't. He calmed down and ripped the chains. His mother gasped and covered her mouth silently. She grasped his arm before he could leave.
"Don't leave me son… Please."
"Mamaaa!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Sesshomaru quietly typed away on his computer and Rin was busily dialing numbers. Both were completely engrossed in what they were doing. Sesshomaru was looking for a good briefcase on the net. Rin glared at his back silently before returning to calling the Higurashi household to alert them that Kagome wouldn't be arriving to their promised dinner… Rin gaped as Sesshomaru took the phone from her hand and hung up.
"Sesshomaru that's not funny!"
"Am I laughing?"
Rin's hands curled into small tight fists that wanted to go down on Sesshomaru's head. But she was not violent, therefore she stomped out of the room. Sesshomaru glanced at her retreating figure out of the corner of his eye. ~Stubborn mate.~ He quickly pressed the 'buy' button and left the computer, his puny servant would do the rest.
"Jakken do the rest, I know you're there. I can smell you for miles."
"Y-Yes master!"
Sesshomaru ignored him and grabbed his keys. He quietly left the room, leaving Jakken to the computer and the amazing task of typing his personal information. He passed by the room in which InuYasha was in, heatedly arguing with their mother. InuYasha ran out of the door and went after Sesshomaru, whom was crossing the front door.
"Sesshomaru! Help me find Kagome!"
"I will find the bitch on my own, I need not your company or your advice."
"She's my mate!"
"And I am your older brother. Now go back inside!"
"No!"
While they continued arguing inside, Sakura was in the room alone. She heard silence, and footsteps. ~Sesshomaru must've won and now InuYasha is coming back, defeated.~ She smiled, knowing her sons very well. A dark shadow blocked the light coming in from the hallway. She looked up and gaped at the dark figure.
"I-Inu…"
The man quickly slapped her, and she was thrown across the room from the impact. She touched her face, burning with searing pain. She looked up, tears in her eyes. He yanked her up and slapped her down again. He kicked her in the stomach, blood coming out of her mouth slowly. She was coughing incontrollably.
"You goddamned bitch! You thought you could get rid of me? That's a laugh!"
"G-Go away!"
The man kicked her again. Sakura was barely concious, but she was able to hear the uncoming footsteps of both her sons.
"I'll leave you alone for now. Mark my words, I'll be back."
The man quickly rushed to the open window and jumped out. She started after him and her sons quickly rushed inside. They found the horrible sight of their mother, badly bruised, coughing up blood. InuYasha quickly picked her up and lay her on his bed. Sesshomaru left in search of Rin and bandages. They came back a couple of minutes later. Rin started crying silently while applying alcohol and ointment, bandaging where it was necessary.
"Oh Lady Sakura, what kind of horrible creature did this to you?!"
"I-Inu…"
Sesshomaru quickly turned to InuYasha, whom growled at him.
"I was with you the whole time you bastard! How dare you think that I would harm my own mother!"
"It wasn't you, it was InuTaesho. It goes to show how weak your sense of smell is."
InuYasha huffed and began to take notice of the smells around him. Apart from the obvious scents of the people around him there was that of blood and, as Sesshomaru said, the scent of his father, InuTaesho. He growled, menacingly, furiously. ~How dare he hurt her?! Does that man have no morals at all?!~
Sesshomaru, while quietly watching, started to put two and two together. ~If Naraku isn't attacking because of urgent business in America like Jakken sais, then who kidnapped InuYasha's mate?~ He disappeared from the room and yet again went to his truck. He quickly left the mansion grounds and dialed a number so long ago forgotten. Only to be remembered in times of emergencies.
"Bonjour, c'est Belle."
"Taku please."
"Ah, hai Sesshomaru-sama!"
He raised an eyebrow at the sudden change of languages from the girl, Belle, whom had picked up the phone. He snapped out of his thoughts when a deep voice filled the other end of the line.
"Moshi moshi?"
"Hello Taku."
"Sesshomaru-sama, what beckons you to call me?"
"A missing person."
"InuYasha's mate?"
"Yes. You know where she is already?"
"Of course Sesshomaru-sama."
"Well?"
"You'll find her in Suite 501 on Kawaiiyou Avenue. It's in the northeast part of Tokyo, a couple of miles from your current position."
"Good."
Sesshomaru shut the phone, not bothering to say 'goodbye.' He wasn't known for being nice, and he wasn't about to start now. He quickly turned his computer system on. Various compartments snapped open and surrounded him.
"Cruise control from point A to point B activated," the female voice of the machine spoke.
He started configuring point B and put in the coordinates. He reclined and took note of his surroundings. This looked a whole lot like the talent search buildings. The car came to a stop and he took over. He quickly found a parking space and a man started honking behind him. He turned off the car and got off. He took off his glasses and the man quickly stopped and pressed the gas pedal. ~I'll make sure you have bad luck for at least a month.~
Everybody turned their heads when they saw the great Morisato Sesshomaru walk into a Talent Search building. He was giving the richest man in the world a run for the position. He stepped into the elevator.
"Suite 501."
A man inside jumped and pressed the button, shakily. Most of the passengers had fainted from nervousness during the ride up to the sixth floor. He scoffed at them, their weakness as humans. He walked in through the glass doors that a long hallway led to. His commanding presence caught the attention of everybody in the office.
"You bastards I am NOT that person! I'm not even a GUY! Goddamnit I am a FEMALE!"
His eyebrow shot up at the loud voice of a female. He walked through the rows of desks towards the origin of the voice. He opened the door, not bothering to ask, and took note of the situation. Two men, Kagome.
"S-Sesshomaru!"
One of the men quickly slapped her, telling her hurriedly to shut up.
"Don't you tell ME to shut up!"
The man raised his hand again, but was stopped by a pissed off Sesshomaru.
"This woman is not to be touched. You are fired, I could care less who your boss is. You're going to pay for that mistake, mark my words."
The man's shocked eyes quickly took in every word. He ran out of the office, scared out of his wits. Kagome threw herself at Sesshomaru, not caring to remember just whom it was.
"I was so scared! These men wouldn't let me go home!"
Sesshomaru felt ackward, having his younger brother's mate embracing him so. He waited until she pried herself away.
"Sorry."
He said nothing, but glared at the man that was on his knees behind the desk.
"Up. What the hell do you think you're doing kidnapping the mate of a Morisato?"
The man's eyes shot up recognizing not only the face but the name as well.
"I-I didn't know! A-And he's, I mean, she looks so much like my lead singer! He was supposed to come in for a concert and hour ago. He's supposed to be giving a concert right now! I can't afford to miss one more concert!"
"You could've asked you dumbass," Kagome quickly intervened.
"Bring her to the Morisato Mansion when she's done."
Kagome's shocked eyes turned to glare at Sesshomaru.
"It's your assignment."
Kagome growled, but walked towards the man. She sneered at him and he backed up a couple of steps. When she turned around Sesshomaru was gone.
"Well then, let's go. Do you know any songs?"
"You'll be surprised if you make it to that concert to see!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Sesshomaru walked into the mansion, thankful for the warmth of his home. The weather was beginning to change and his vacation to Hawaii was approaching. He stopped and sidestepped and his brother crashed into the door behind him.
"A mile away, a mile away."
"Damn you," he growled, "where is she?!"
"Singing in a concert."
"WHAT?!"
"Just that. Apparently a singer's manager kidnapped her thinking it was his lead singer. She was furious, but I made her stay and give the concert."
"Sesshomaru," InuYasha managed to growl out.
"Quiet little brother. You disturb the peace in the house, your mate will be back tonight."
"She better be!"
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kagome followed the man reluctantly behind the stage. When the man had said concert, he had meant concert. They were in a large amphitheater filled to the brink with people from all over Tokyo. She shivered in the black dress she had been given.
.::FB::.
"One song that's it. Just tell the guys and they'll play it for you. One song and your done. You leave and never see us again, okay?".::FB::.
She growled, like InuYasha, in anger. ~ 'Bring her back when she's done' he sais! Who the hell does he think he is to be ordering me around like that?!~ She stomped towards the musicians, whom all backed away slowly.
"Do you know…"
~*Is that long enough for the squirrels? It better be, I took a whole lot of coffee to get this one out!*~
~**I do not own Inu & Co. so don't sue!**~
