Alternate Lives
CHAPTER THREE: The start of club NightShade...welcome.
Kagome loved the pounding music, the lights, the thrill. As she wove her way around the club she kept a sharp eye on everyone. The turnout was amazing, but then, the Samurai Demons had good connections. And everyone was curious about this 'no one' girl that came in and had the Samurai Demons in the palm of her hand.
Kagome saw Kenshin and smiled at him, he tossed a flirty smiled over to her, which had Kagome a little baffled, but she waved and kept working through the crowd. All the girls agreed that between turns on stage they would check in with Inuyasha. But, even though it really was her turn she felt like something was wrong and she quickly made her was towards Inuyasha.
She found him glaring at some people. She sighed, "Inuyasha! Whats wrong?"
"Naraku. Is here. You better be careful. He got Kikyo away from us, and I don't want him to get you as well. Beware, the little creepy guy is Jaken. He use to work with my brother but Jaken betrayed us by giving information to Naraku. Naraku is the leader of the Poisoned Knives. He's deadly. He works with Soujirou's old gang. Sou use to work with Shishio. Damned bastard. And that, that is Enishi. Dangerous bastard. Kenshin use to date his sister, but accidently killed her when she got in the way during a fight. Kenshin was badly wounded and not really himself. Enishi wants revenge. And...That. That is Kagura. She's...well..her situation is bad. She hates Naraku but is practically his slave. Thats her sister Kanna. Careful of them too."
Suddenly his body froze, and Kagome looked at him in worry. His eyes were wide in shock, "Kik...Kikyo!"
Kagome's heart froze, she knew that tone of voice. That was the tone of someone who loved...and lost.
With a blank look on her face, the woman Kikyo stood in the doorway, her hand resting on Naraku's arm. She looked disdainful. Dressed, shockingly, much like Kagome was. But something about Kikyo just seemed off. Like she wasn't really human.
Kagome brushed that off, "Of course she's human stupid. She isn't demon or anything. So you are just being dumb little miss Kagome."
Inuyasha gave a start, "Huh? Did you say something?"
With a sad sigh she shook her head, "No, not anything you need to worry about Inuyasha. I'm fine."
Inuyasha watched Kagome as she wove through the crowds, just to make sure no one bugged her. She had almost made it to the stage when Naraku grabbed her arm.
Kagome spun around to face him, "Can I help you sir?"
Naraku smiled, "Yes you can my dear. My...friend...is more busy with other things and can't...spend time...with me. Would you care to join me?"
Kagome smiled, "No thanks!"
Naraku glared, " I don't believe you understood me miss, you will join me and you will be honored to. Not is it every day that common sluts like yourself get to spend time with me, the leader of the most powerful gang."
Kagome snorted, "Whatever. I know for a fact that Inuyasha and his brother have a more powerful gang. Now back off."
Of course, Naraku being the bad guy and all, didn't like that Idea.
With a growl, Naraku tightened his grip and hissed, "Learn to respect your betters you little slut."
Inuyasha was there suddenly, prying Naraku's hand off of Kagome's arm. Omi was there, as well as the rest of the Samurai Demons, "Hands off Naraku," was Inuyasha's comment, "She's one of us, and that means she ain't yours. Now leave her alone."
Naraku laughed, "If she hasn't been claimed by a gang member then I can move in as I please."
Reactions varied from Shesshomaru's slightly worried to Shippo's downright terrified.
Inuyasha shrugged, "She is claimed. By me."
Naraku growled, "You'll regret that move hanyou. She will be mine. Just as Kikyo was."
Inuyasha bared his fangs, "Over my dead body."
Naraku snarled, "That can be easily arranged."
Miroku stepped in, "Back off Naraku. Not your place. She's with us."
"Shut up little pervert!"
Sango bristled, "Back off Naraku. You're messing with the wrong people."
Kagome spoke up for herself, "I suggest you back off Onigumo. I know about you, you coward. So you had best keep your distance. I know you, you of the Traitors Ilk."
With that she turned and walked away. Inuyasha followed, "Are you alright?"
Instead of a real answer all he heard were sobs and the smell of fresh tears and blood, "Kagome?"
She turned toward him and showered her arm, "It hurts Inuyasha."
Indeed, aside from the bruising there was, what looked like, a stab wound and blood leaked from the open wound. Inuyasha growled, "He'll pay for that..." The others gathered around. As Inuyasha started to stalk off Kenshin stopped him, "Shouldn't you tend to Miss Kagome now? I'm sure she would like to have you with her."
Megumi looked expectantly toward Inuyasha. He nodded to her and swept Kagome up, "Don't argue. Any battle wounded female is carried like this. Guys are carried differently because it'd be fucked up otherwise."
Kagome sighed and settled down in his arms as he took her to the Black Room. She held still as Megumi stitched up the wound and bandaged it. Inuyasha stuck by her side. As soon as Megumi was done she said, "I'm going to let everyone know she's fine. And that you, Mr. Leader, are staying with her for the rest of the night. You said you'd watch out for everyone and she got hurt. Stay!"
Inuyasha growled, "I was gonna anyway."
Megumi gave him an odd look, "Good. Now stay."
Kagome sighed, "Sorry it ended up like this. I don't know how he got to where I was as fast as he did."
"The one we saw at first was probably a puppet. Or something."
"Why would he chose me? There are lots of girls who are way prettier then me."
Even as Inuyasha said that Naraku was sometimes weird, he privately thought that no one in the whole of Japan was more beautiful then Kagome. He settled back among the cushions and listened to Kagome's breathing slow as she drifted off into sleep. He watched her for awhile, noting everything about her lithe body. She outshone Kikyo any day if only for the life in her. Even when she slept, Kagome radiated life and energy and joy.
Inuyasha snorted a little, he was becoming foolish. She was a simple member, a new one at that, and he, Inuyasha Tetsua, was the co-leader of the gang. He wasn't sure why he had said that she was his claim, and he knew he'd hear about it later from Shesshomaru. He winced. Oh yeah. He'd hear about...Hell, thats all he'd be hearing about for a long time...Like, maybe...Oh...the rest of his life!
Kagome stirred and said one clear thing, "Fucking bloody hell...How I hate pickles."
Inuyasha fell over, "Pickles?! What do pickles have to do with ANYTHING you nitwit?!"
Kagome yawned, "Eh? Why are you ranting about pickles Inuyasha? And why are you on the floor? Is your doggy nature kicking in boy?"
Inuyasha twitched, "You said, and I quote, 'Fucking bloody hell...how I hate pickles.' Care to explain that one?"
Kagome blinked, "What kind of smoke are you cracking?"
Inuyasha blinked and tried to figure that statement out, "What did you just say?"
Kagome blinked, "Did you go deaf or something dog boy?"
Inuyasha yelled, "NO! But you said something about PICKLES and then you said something about cracking smoke! How do you CRACK smoke?"
Kagome gave him and odd look, "You need to cut down on the caffeine intake babe...You're starting to scare me a little."
Inuyasha's eye twitched, "I'm gonna...Hurt you or something."
Kagome started to giggle, "I guess maybe I should clear things up, yeah?"
Inuyasha screamed into the closest object, which happened to be Kagome's lap. She blinked again, and waited for him to be done.
When Inuyasha sat up he said, "Okay, I'm calm..Now explain."
Kagome grinned, "Well the pickle comment...lets see. When I was little I called people who were jerks, like Naraku, pickles. It kept my 'rents from ever figuring anything out and getting involved. And the cracking smoke...Well..Thats just a twisted way of saying, smoking crack...see? It confuzzles people."
Inuyasha stared at her, "Confuzzles? What is wrong with you?"
Kagome sighed, "Nothing...So..Um...what time is it?"
Inuyasha checked his watch, "2:25...why?"
Kagome stuttered, "Souta! Ahh! I forgot to CALL him!"
Quickly, Kagome reached into Inuyasha's pant pocket and pulled out his phone as Inuyasha turned bright tomato red, and she dialed up Souta's cell, as she asked Inuyasha, "Whats wrong with you? Fever? Need someth...Souta! Oh, no, I'm okay...Sorry I worried you babe..Yeah. Uh huh...8:00? PM? Oh...Okay. Yeah, sure. No prob...Love ya!"
She hung up and gave the phone to Inuyasha, "I'm gonna go to sleep, kick these people soon please....We're taking Souta to the movies at 8:00 PM and I do NOT want to look half dead. And I don't want some HUGE mess to clean up. Okay?"
With that, Kagome rolled over and went to sleep...Inuyasha just started, "I think she hit her head to hard...Or I hit my head...or something. I..I'm gonna go get drunk and go to sleep."
