Why Me?

Chapter8: We Spy
'Oh.. my.. god..' Inu-yasha thought as he ran down the stairs and through a few corridors until he reached a door. "Sesshomaru! Come out of here right now!"
"I'm not a moron, dumb ass." A smooth voice replied.
"What did you do to my room?!"
"Oh, that." Sesshomaru snickered behind the door. "It is merely revenge for you dumping the glass of water to wake me up last week."
"But, why PINK of all colors!"
"It suites you." Was the simple answer.
Inu-yasha groaned and tried the door again. Locked. 'Duh! He would of course lock his room. He's not stupid enough to leave it unlocked.' he thought to himself. 'I'll get you back, Sesshomaru. Just you wait.' He then walked off to his room and flopped onto his bed, thinking about everything that has happened so far during this week. He sighed and fell asleep. The last thing he saw was his pink ceiling.
'SHIT!' Miroku thought when he saw Kagome in the ally. He was walking home through the park when he heard a short scream. He followed it and it lead him to an alley where a drunken man and Kagome were fighting. He started running to help her, but by the time he got there, Kagome had fainted. The man was leaning over her.
"What do you think you are doing?" Miroku asked in a cold voice. The man didn't respond. He was too busy looking at Kagome with hunger and lust in his eyes. Even though he didn't like Kagome that much, Miroku didn't seeing women get hurt.
"Hey." Miroku tapped the man on the shoulder. The drunken man looked at him and before he knew what was going on, he was unconscious. Miroku dusted off his shoe with his hand. His mouth twisted into a sneer of disgust. Quite quickly, he dropped his shoe and ran over to Kagome.
"Hey. You okay?" he asked. Kagome moaned, but didn't wake up. Miroku sighed and whipped out his cellular phone. After dialing the number, he put the phone to his ear and waited.
The field was changing colors. Green to blue. Then to yellow and red. 'What is this?' he thought. A bird flew out from the grass. It kept flying around him until it reached his ear. There, it chirped very loudly. The field suddenly turned pink.
Inu-yasha opened his eyes and stared at his pink ceiling. 'Hmm... I fell asleep? What a queer dream.' He turned over in his bead and buried his head in the pillow once more. Yet he could still hear the stupid bird in his dream chirping. Inu-yasha dragged another pillow over to himself and covered his head. Still, the chirping continued. A few more seconds passed by before he realized what it was.
Groaning once more, Inu-yasha reached his hand down into his backpack so conveniently placed by his bed and retrieved his cellular phone. He pressed the 'receive call' button and said, "What do you want, loser?"
"Hello to you too, Inu-yasha."
"What do you want?" he repeated.
"I need some help."
"Some? You need a lot of help. Mental help right?"
"Haha. Very funny." Miroku said sarcastically. "Actually. I need you to help me bring Kagome home. A drunken man was chasing her. She's unconscious right now. She might be hurt. I'm not sure. I didn't check."
This had Inu-yasha wide-awake. "Where are you guys?"
"In the alley at the back of the pharmacy by the school." As soon as Miroku said that, he didn't hear anything anymore. Inu-yasha had hung up.
About five minutes later, Inu-yasha drove up with his red convertible. "Inu-yasha!" Miroku called out. "Over here!" Inu-yasha hopped out of his car and ran over. "How is she?" he asked. "I don't know. She hasn't woken up yet. I found out that she has a rolled ankle and a large bruise on her head." "Let's get her home. Get her in my car."
Inu-yasha picked up Kagome's unconscious form while Miroku walked ahead and opened the door. Inu-yasha very carefully put Kagome on his backseat and got in behind the wheel. "Hop in, Miroku. I'll give you a ride home after I drop the girl off at her house." Inu-yasha told Miroku.
"So this is her house? She lives at a shrine?" Miroku asked skeptically.
"Mmmhmm." Inu-yasha answered. He had picked up Kagome again and was beginning to climb the shrine steps. Miroku followed looking around in wonder and kept muttering to himself, "she lives in a shrine."
Souta looked out the window of the house and saw the same boy from before carrying Kagome. Walking behind him was some other person he's never seen before. 'Kagome's in trouble again.' He thought maliciously. 'Just wait till mama gets back and hears about this.' With an evil grin, Souta walked away from the window and stood behind the door.
As soon as the doorbell rang, Souta opened the door and looked out at the boy. "You can just drop her off at the couch. Just like last time." Instead of saying anything about the little boy's rudeness, Inu-yasha dropped Kagome off on the living room couch and left. Souta slammed the door after them. Then he went to his own room and slammed the door, not caring whether Kagome was all right or not.
"That's what her brother is like?" Miroku asked with disbelief written all over his face.
"Mmmhmmm. That was what it was like last time I was here. He did the exact same thing."
"Wow. It's so hard to believe they're part of the same family."
Inu-yasha didn't answer. There was a brief moment of silence as the two were lost in their own thoughts. While walking toward the car, Inu-yasha said to Miroku, "I'm going to find out what is going on with her family. I know it's none of my business. I'm just curious. Plus we can blackmail her if we ever need anything. So.. Do you want to stay or do you want me to drop you off at home?"
"I'll stay. I want to know what her family is like, too. I don't know about the black mail though."
"But this is a once in a lifetime chance!"
"Alright. Whatever. Do what you want. So what are we going to do? Where are we going to hide?" Inu-yasha looked around and pointed to a tree that was close to Kagome's room, but was far away enough so that they wouldn't be spotted from the window once they were up. The boys went to Inu-yasha's trunk and pulled out their 'spy gears'. It consisted of binoculars, different types of cameras, and camouflage clothing. They changed their clothing and climbed up into the tree. They sat there, covered by the leaves, waiting for something to happen in the Higurashi household.
'Nngh. Where am I?' Kagome thought when she woke up. She saw the ceiling of her living room and was suddenly hit with a sense of deja vous. This happened once before. 'Whatever. I'm just tired. I have to get to my room.'
She slowly got off the couch and stood up. She suddenly sat back down again because of the pain she had felt on her ankle. She looked down and saw that her right ankle was completely swollen.
After a short while, the pain subsided and Kagome got up again. This time she was aware of her hurt ankle. With support of the wall, she limped into the kitchen and grabbed a small package of ice from the freezer. The packages of ice were meant for Souta since he did sports every term of the school year and he was very prone to sports accidents.
With the package of ice in one hand, Kagome limped up the stairs to her room. What she didn't notice on her way up was an eye peeking out at her through a crack between a door and a wall.
Once in her room, Kagome slumped onto her bed and sighed. Then she sat back up and gave her ankle a closer examination. With a sigh, she put the package of ice on her ankle. Flopping back on her bed, she fell asleep.
"Hey! Miroku! She's going into her room now." Inu-yasha whispered to Miroku beside him who was also holding onto a pair of binoculars.
"I know. I wonder what she's doing?"
The two guys watched as Kagome doctored her own foot and then fall asleep afterward. They both sighed since they knew it would be a while before anything else interesting happened.
Half an hour later, a car pulled into the family's garage. A woman with short black hair and cold blue eyes stepped out of the car and went into the house. Miroku looked at Inu-yasha and asked, "Who is she?"
"She's Kagome's mom?"
"You serious! That cannot be Kagome's mom!" Miroku put the pair of binoculars back to his eyes again.
"Why can't she be Kagome's mom?"
"That woman looks colder than the south pole!"
"Just shut up and keeping looking."
The two saw Souta walk out of his room and down a set of stairs. No doubt to greet his mom. Nothing happened for a minute or so. When that minute was up, Mrs. Higurashi was seen storming up the stairs with a feather duster. Her face was calm, yet her eyes and hands betrayed the calmness. Her hands were closed tightly over the feather duster and her eyes were burning angrily. They looked into Kagome's room and saw her sitting up in her bed, seemingly alarmed. She quickly threw back her cover and limped to her window. She slowly climbed out of her room and onto the tree next to it. She climbed down the tree until she was about four feet from the ground. She jumped. She landed on her good leg. Quickly, looking up at her room for a slit second, she ran to the well house on her family's property.
Mrs. Higurashi threw open the door of Kagome's room the same time Kagome closed the door to the well house. Mrs. Higurashi looked around Kagome's room and saw the opened window. She walked over to it and peeked out. Her eyes narrowed. Sticking her head back inside the room, she hit a vase on Kagome' desk with the wooden handle of the feather duster. The small porcelain vase shattered at the impact, leaving sharp shards behind.
Miroku and Inu-yasha stared at each other with wide, shocked eyes. 'That is Kagome's mother?!' they bother thought, disbelief written all over their face.
