"Seriously, I don't WANT to know where you get all of these clothes." Sango said, holding up the light gray police outfit that was surprisingly her size. Kagome laughed and slipped her feet into black high-heeled shoes. She was wearing a tight black dress and a small amount of make-up to show her innocence. When Sango finished changing, they stepped out of the room and grabbed their purses. Kagome slid her gun into her purse and opened the front door, Sango followed behind her.
Kagome slid into Sango's car and tossed Sango the keys to Kagome's small, less attractive car. Sango sighed and got into the drivers seat. Kagome snatched her sunglasses and turned on the ignition, her fingers drumming to the music. She was going to a party; she needed to look like it. She pulled out first and watched as Sango followed close enough to see her car, and far enough to not look suspicious.
"We have breaking news from Paris. Mark Tamakatchi, a Japanese trader who lived in Paris was found dead this afternoon around three. The cause of death is uncertain but Mr. Tamakatchi had small marks under his chin and a fork lay beside him. It is not confirmed if it was homicide or suicide. More on this case at ten on your favorite station WA-" Kagome turned off the radio. Sango had done her job well, the police will probably give up and think it was suicide…they would never suspect that the same person who killed Mark Tamakatchi, would kill another tonight.
Pulling up to the mansion, Kagome flashed her forged ticket and proceeded down the long driveway. After parking she stepped out of her car where a man bumped into her.
"Hey watch it!" She snapped before looking up at the man who knocked into her. It was her victim, Inu Washa or whatever.
"Oh! I'm…so sorry…I should really watch where I'm going." Kagome put on a small smile, something didn't seem right. According to Kikyo, he was rich. Just by the way his walked Kagome could tell he wasn't used to luxury.
"No, my bad. Are you here for the party?" He asked, glancing at her from the side. She smiled. Boy was he dumb.
"Why else would I be here?" She teased this was easy…too easy. If she had known he wasn't going to be a challenge she would have taken the womanizer.
"Oh right…well sorry to bother you…I thought you were someone else…" He said quickly before walking away.
'What a strange guy…'

Sango took her place by the punch bowl, fingering the small toothpick she had taken. Something this sharp could easily puncture an eye out; Sango shook her head, attempting to get the image out. She was working…she couldn't think about things like that until the time came. A man walked next to her and took her hand.
"Ah, hello my fair lady. I don't believe I have seen you as a guard here before. Might I have your name?" Sango's eyes locked with the man who was slightly taller than her. This had to be the pervert.
"It's a one-night job…I used to be a police officer but things came up. My name's Sango…and yours?" She smiled a charming smile, the toothpick dug into her hand as it broke in two. He seemed surprised but continued.
"I'm Miroku…when's your shift over?" He replied flirtatiously. Sango raised an eyebrow.
'So this is what Kagome's job's like.' Sango smiled coyly.
"As soon as the dangers over." She replied, her eyes met him, edging him to want her.
"I think I'm the only danger here." He replied, leading her away from the crowd.
'Got him.'

Kagome watched as a young man lead Sango away from her post, even Kagome herself had not gotten the man to start to like her yet. A shadow fell across the floor in front of her as a man leaned close to Kagome's ear.
"Sister Kikyo, Master Miroku has taken the first step. Now it's up to Master Inu Yasha for the rest." Kagome turned, was this man part of the plan for her to kill Inu Yasha?
"Huh?" She asked, Kikyo had not told her of another.
"Oh sorry, I thought you were someone else." The man hurried away glancing at her.
"That's the second time today." Kagome shrugged and walked towards the stairs where she was knocked over.
"What the he-" She looked up angrily at the man above her. It was that Inu Yasha person again, why was he knocking into her. He held out a hand mumbled an apology.
"Mind telling my why you knocked me down?" She asked, her voice was bitter as she got up.
"Sorry…I wasn't looking. And anyways, why are you here in the first place?" He met her eyes, confusion and hurt reflected in them.
"I have an invitation…you don't even know me…why are you acting like you do?" She raised an eyebrow and stared into him.
"So now you don't know me? God Kikyo your acting really childish ever since that stupid brainwashing thing you went to. And I thought you said you had a tip for me." Kagome growled.
"Kikyo KIKYO. Whoever she is she's NOT me. People keep calling me Kikyo! I don't know who the hell she is!" The black haired boy in front of her stared, open mouthed. "You can close your mouth." She snapped.
"Feh. Kikyo wouldn't say hell; it's against her 'religion'. She's much cuter too." He looked to the side.
'Well I'm obviously not gonna get him alone with me in a room. Time for plan b.' Kagome blinked and put her hand to her head.
"Crap…not again."
"What's wrong?" Inu Yasha looked at her strangely as she rubbed her temples.
"My doctor said I shouldn't yell too much. It gives me headaches…can I have some wine…if I don't I'll faint." She stumbled into his arms and looked up. "Sorry…" Her eyes closed as her body became limp. Strong arms lifted her up and ran up the stairs. Five minutes later she was in a room with an ice pack to her head.
'Works like a charm.' She opened her eyes and looked around, pretending to be confused. Inu Yasha looked at her, his eyes showed confusion.
"Can you get me something to drink? I get these sometimes…sorry to bother you." He nodded and ran out of the room. Kagome reached into her shoe and pulled out the small bag of poison and spread it on her fingers so there was a visible layer. When Inu Yasha came back, she took the glass with her clean hand and sprinkled the powder in when he looked away.
"Does this have anything other than grapes in here?" She asked innocently again. He looked at her like she was nuts.
"I dunno…why?"
"I can't drink wine if it has something other than grapes in here." She handed him the glass. "Can you test it?" Kagome swerved around to see a man behind her; it was the same man before who had called her Kikyo. He pressed a cloth to her face and Kagome fell back unconscious.

Sango fingered her gun as she kissed Miroku. Taking it out she held it to his head. Instead of pleading for his life, he smiled.
"I was waiting for you to do that." He said as a man knocked the gun out of her hand and tied her hands behind her back.
"But how did y-" A cloth was pressed to her face and her eyes closed. They were caught, now they had to pay the price.
