Chapter Two- I Won't Help
Last time:
Kagome's eyes grew large and her mouth fell open. "Sesshoumaru? He's still alive?"
This time:
Kurama and Hiei carefully watched her reaction and realized that this girl truly did know the ruler of the Makai. Hiei dropped out of the tree and was making his way towards her when Kurama stopped him. He spoke in a quiet voice when he said, "Hold on. Koenma will surely explain how she knows him. No need to scare it out of her."
They heard her snort and turned to see her watching them. "As if he could ever scare me. He's a demon. I'm a miko. Think about the consequences of attacking me." Everyone there heard the threat hidden in that piece of information and Hiei growled and bared his fangs at her. "Like I said, you don't scare me. You can growl and show off your fangs all you want. I just went through the hardest battle of my life, against a hanyou that used over half of the legendary Shikon no Tama to gain as much strength as Sesshoumaru. Believe me, if I was ever going to get scared, that would have been the time to do it."
Kagome's mother put her hands on her hips and said, "So that's what was wrong. You can't go back anymore, can you, dear?"
Kagome's eyes teared up again and she looked up her mother. The tears broke through as she shook her head. "I'll never see Sango and Miroku again. There's a chance that Shippou and Inuyasha are dead too. And unless Sesshoumaru found a way to keep her alive, Rin is gone too."
Yusuke, despite his tough exterior, hated to see a woman cry. He laid a comforting hand on her shoulder and she looked up at him. His eyes showed that he felt for her and she smiled at him through her tears. After wiping her eyes she stood up and agreed to meet their boss. "I'll talk to him on one condition."
"Which is?"
"All of you introduce yourselves." They did and then told Kagome how they were going to go through a portal to Koenma's office.
She seemed skeptical when she asked, "Are you sure?"
Botan nodded and chirped, "Of course! I've been doing this for quite a while now. I'm absolutely positive!" To prove her point, she opened the portal right in the middle of the courtyard and motioned for them to go through.
"I'll be back later," Kagome said to her mother. Mrs. Higurashi nodded and Kagome stepped through the portal with her eyes closed. When she opened them, she found herself in a large office. Directly in front of her was a large desk, with what appeared to be a toddler sitting behind it. She titled her head curiously and asked, "Are you Koenma?"
He floated out from behind the desk and levitated in front of her before responding. "Yes I am." He stuck out his hand and she shook it. "It's very nice to meet you Kagome. As soon as everyone arrives, I will discuss what I called you here for." A few minutes later, everyone was sitting in the office waiting for Koenma to talk.
Yusuke was starting to get impatient, so he yelled, "Hurry up toddler! I've got a date with Keiko to get ready for!"
Koenma glared at him. "You all have a new mission Yusuke. And it will be a lot easier if Kagome decides to help. So shut up and listen." Yusuke looked shocked as he shut his mouth and glared at his boss. "Now, your mission will probably be the toughest you have ever had to do." He took a deep breath and continued. "You must kill Sesshoumaru."
Kagome gasped and Kurama's eyes widened. "Koenma, you can't do that. The Reikai and Makai signed a treaty. If you attack the king of the Makai, you are declaring a war that we will most certainly lose."
Koenma sighed. "I have no choice. He broke the laws set down by my father. He killed five humans. It has to be done." He turned to Kagome and asked, "Will you help us kill him, Kagome?"
She turned terrified eyes, brimming with tears, to Koenma. "I won't help you."
They all tuned to her and Yusuke yelled, "What do you mean you won't help us? That youkai killed five people! Why won't you help?"
"I won't help kill the one that risked his life for me. He took a hit for me that could have killed him. I will not turn around and kill my ally. I would rather die."
"I suggest you help us. If you don't, I have to put you in a prison cell," Koenma said.
Her eyes widened, but she still refused. "I will never fight against Sesshoumaru again. I said I would rather die, and I mean it. Your threats will not scare me."
"Very well. Guards!" Four ogres ran into the office and tried to grab her arms. She purified two of them, but the other two managed to restrain her arms. Kurama, Hiei, and Yusuke stood to help her, but Koenma stopped them. "If you help her, you will join her."
They stopped, but Hiei, for some reason, felt a connection to her. He sent her a telepathic message saying, I will inform Sesshoumaru. You should not be in there long.
'Who is this?'
Hiei.
'Don't let him come to get me. I don't want him to get hurt.'
Hn. Hiei severed their mental connection and left the office. When he was out the doors he contacted Kurama to tell him where he was going. Fox, I'm going to Sesshoumaru's.
'Is that wise Hiei? You might put them both in danger.'
Koenma will attack Sesshoumaru even without the girl's help. War is inevitable. Choose wisely Kurama.
Hiei opened a portal to the Makai and ran to Sesshoumaru's castle. When he got there, he was greeted by a dozen guards. He easily ran past them and managed to make it to the doors. Just as he as about to knock, the doors opened to reveal Sesshoumaru.
Hiei immediately bowed before him and said, "Sesshoumaru-sama, I have information for you."
Sesshoumaru sized him up before saying, "Rise." Hiei stood up and glanced at Sesshoumaru. "You work for Koenma, do you not?"
"Not anymore. I think you will want to hear what I have to say."
Sesshoumaru nodded. "Follow me." He turned around and walked into the castle. Hiei followed him and was led to a study. When they entered, a kitsune was sitting at the desk in the corner of the room.
"Hey, Sesshoumaru, when are we going to look for my okaa-san?"
"We will look for her tomorrow, Shippou. For now, we have a guest."
Shippou looked past Sesshoumaru and noticed Hiei. "Isn't he one of Koenma's?"
"Let him explain himself Shippou. He has information."
Shippou stood up and moved to another chair to let Sesshoumaru sit at his desk. "I want to find my okaa-san. I've waited five hundred fucking years to see her. I want her now!"
"Hold your tongue, kit. If I hear you using such language in front of Rin, you will be punished. You have spent too much time with my idiot half- brother."
"Sorry, but not seeing her has finally gotten to me. I need her back. She's the only family I've got."
"I told you we'd find her, and we will. This Sesshoumaru does not lie. But for now, let the koorime talk."
They both stopped talking and waited for Hiei to begin. He told them of Kagome and how Koenma had her locked up. By the time he had finished, the two youkai before him had blood red eyes.
Shippou snarled, "They dare touch my Okaa-san. Koenma will pay for this."
"Reikai will fall. If those fools think they can challenge me, they are mistaken. I will not die by the hands of those weak idiots," Sesshoumaru growled.
"Sesshoumaru-sama, I wish to join you. However, Koenma suspects nothing. He will not hesitate to give me all of the information that is being given to the tantei," Hiei said.
The inu youkai nodded and said, "Your help is appreciated. If there is any way possible to free Kagome I want to know. If she is hurt in anyway, Koenma will face a slow, painful death. If you deceive us, you will as well."
"I will not betray you. I cannot help the reikai. I felt some sort of connection with her the moment I saw her."
Sesshoumaru and Shippou nodded. "She has that sort of affect on most. Kagome's soul reaches out to anybody that has a good heart. She can always sense that kind of stuff," Shippou said.
"As long as she is your ally, I am as well. I will not help the reikai."
It's longer! Yay! Review please!
