Chapter three
"Marcos. It is just Marcos. Why the hell do I feel like I should dress up?"
Kagome asked herself as she held the pressed, knee-length suit to her firm
body. Reluctantly she threw it behind her, letting it pile on top of the
other numerous outfits. "No, I will not give in." Triumphantly she seized a
pair of comfy jeans, who sadly had seen better days. After zipping up the
pants she walked over to her temporary closet. Seeing her favorite shirt
hanging she snatched it off the hanger and pulled it over her head.

"Perfect." She whispered. It felt so good to her just to be wearing regular
clothes. She sighed while lacing up her Reebok running shoes. Not wanting
to get up just yet Kagome lay back on her twin size bed, finally letting
her body relax. "This is going to be a long day."

Thinking back on the interview she smiled. 'I've still got it.' She thought
while picturing how well it had gone. Then she remembered the most
distressing thing Inuyasha could have said to her.

"That no matter what, you will not let me die. I want you to pinky promise
Miss Higurashi."

"Why did he have to say something absurd like that? He was asking the wrong
person that's for sure, but then again I am supposed to be his bodyguard.
Still...I could never promise him that. Not when I have already been given my
orders." She sat up suddenly and cursed.

"I will only truly commit myself to what I am able. And that sir is
protecting you with everything I have."

What had she done? She had promised him that she would protect him, but
that wasn't possible. She was supposed to kill him not save him.

"Crap..."
She hated lying and usually she didn't have to, but something about her new
hit was driving her crazy. He made her ashamed of what she did and that was
a new feeling for you.

Sure he was handsome, but she had gone through with several murders that
included good-looking men. It had to be something more. Maybe it was
because his background and the fact that their past was so similar. Yeah,
that had to be it.

Lifting up her arm she checked the time. "I'd better go. Don't want to be
late." Heaving herself off the bed Kagome took one last look in the full
size mirror before grabbing her purse and keys.
In the truck she turned her radio up full blast, successfully drowning out
all her worries. For today she would be Kagome and then tomorrow she would
go back to being herself again. Or was Kagome who she really was? God, she
didn't even know anymore. They were both her identities, and yet she tended
to claim her evil self more. Sometimes she found herself wondering if she
was a bad guy or a good girl?

Lost in her everyday thoughts, Kagome ran a red light, nearly hitting a
silver '57 T-Bird and spinning luckily into a open space fast food parking
lot. She breathed in a deep sigh of relief and turned her keys in the
ignition. With a painful headache she lowered her now pounding head onto
her driving wheel.A knock on her window alerted her and out of habit she
reached immediately under her seat and pulled out her favorite .45 caliber.

Aiming it directly at the person standing outside her car she clicked off
the safety, ready do pull the trigger. Then she saw who it was. Damn, it
just had to be him.

Blushing, she put the gun back where it came from and unlocked her car
door. He opened it for her with his head looking off towards space. "I
didn't know it was you. I'm really sorry."

"Make up your mind!" He demanded loudly.

"What do you mean?" She asked still shaken up and confused.

"Decide whether you want to kill me or protect me! That is twice in the
past ten minutes that you have almost taken my life!"

"...Twice?" Now she was really puzzled. Hadn't she only aimed a gun at him
once? Maybe he was the crazy one.

"First you try to run into little ol' me with your macho Dodge and than you
point a fire arm at me! What's next?" When he finally looked her in the
eyes she just about keeled over. His eyes were laughing at her. He found
her amusing? How ridiculous, and yet she could see it in the way he is
looking at her.

"And what might I ask is so funny about that?"

"Funny? Who said anything about being funny? I more or less just had an
accident in my pants. I don't find that at all humorous." Inuyasha
Teskamotur admitted as seriously as he could. He shook his head in a grim
mockery and pretended to cry. "I guess you will have to bathe me with your
bare hands...damn." After snapping his fingers he let a smile grace his sexy
face.

"You are simply a comedian Mr. Teskamotur."

"Want to know something?"

"Will I be surprised?"

"No."

"Then go ahead."

"I can juggle with my eyes closed and my hands tied behind my back. Now how
is that for talented?"

"I can believe that if you are talking about sex, but if you
aren't...well...that's disturbing." Dully she stepped out of her truck and
instantly regretted so. Instead of looking at him eye to eye she was now
staring at the knot that held his very loose red tie together. She hated
being short, but she had come to live with it. "Next time you are doing one
of your amazing tricks learn how to fix a tie properly."

"Wow you are hilarious wench, and I know how to!" As if proving himself
Inuyasha redid his whole knot, securing tightly, and almost uncomfortably
under his neck.

"You're cuter when you're angry." She said while turning around to climb
back into her vehicle. "Don't ever call me a wench again, got it?

"Yes sir!" He saluted, delight etching across his face, but then it
disappeared and pure bewilderment replaced it. "Where are you going?"

"Aren't we going to meet at Marcos?"

"Look young one, doesn't it make more sense if you just rode over there
with me. Have you seen the price on gas lately? I don't even want to think
about your weekly payments for this hunk of junk." He overly shuddered and
added while chuckling, "come on hop in."

Thinking about it for only a second, Kagome picked up the necessaries and
locked her truck up. "Lead the way oh wise one." She followed him to his
classic. "Oh." She whispered quietly, understanding what he had said
before.

"My lady your chariot." He dazzled her with his endless charm and held the
door open for her.

"Are you always like this?"

"No baby only when I am with you." He laughed again and closed the door. He
slowly walked around the car, leaving Kagome to say unhappily. "You are not
making this easy you bastard."

so what did you think...funny?...no?...hmmm...ok stay tuned till next time!!!
