New Recruits Chapter 9 - Karasuma's Discovery

I've decided to not have anyone talk now, mostly because it has been FOREVER since I updated. Thanks to my few reviewers, who convinced me not to end it. I have been asked to write "fluff" Which I am not good at.

I'll give a review. There are 3 new hunters at the STN-J. Semenza, Fleur, and Tela. Semenza's real name is Lana, Fleur's real name is Inuyasha-Chan, nicknamed Inuc, and Tela is Tela. Their actual purpose there is supposed as, stopping Inuc's old Boyfriend's gang from killing off the entire STN-J. They are all demons, not witches. Inuc and Lana are demons and Tela is a half-demon. Michael and Sakaki know about their secret...

The next morning when Karasuma came in, she sat down at her station and brought up some information. She then got out some papers and started to work. She needed a new pen cause hers didn't work and opened up a drawer. "Huh? What's this?" she picked up a notebook, it looked like any other notebook. She flipped the page to see a page labeled, "Bad Guys".

"What's this?" She said softly.

No one noticed that she'd found it, Michael was busily typing at his computer. Everyone was working so she didn't think that she should bother them. She looked at the back of the front cover and it read, "Property of Inuyasha-Chan" Karasuma's eyes widened. Where did this come from? How did it get into the STN-J? She looked around the room. The only way I can think of is that one of the three new hunters is Inuyasha-Chan. Which means... Her eyes, which had stopped widening, now re-widened. Lana is here too! Something is going on here and I bet that this booklet tells what of. She lifted the book and was about to flip to the first Bad Guy page when she was interrupted by Dojima coming in late.

"Best wait till later for this." She put it away with her stuff and did what she could on other, normal, cases.

The day went by slowly and Karasuma found it hard not to look at the notebook. Now she knew how Dojima felt trying not to go shopping. She sighed and tried to keep busy. It was hard seeing as how there was literally nothing to do. Dojima left 2 hours early and Sakaki had fallen asleep. The heat of the day was coming through the window but Semenza, Lana, didn't seem to mind.

It's very hot. I want to move from the window. But I can't seem to move. That's what I get for sitting here from start to finish.

Karasuma looked around the rest of the room and saw Fleur (Inuc) and Tela quietly arguing over what looked like a bag of Cheetos. She sighed and looked around again. Robin was sitting in a shaded corner staring into space. She must've run out of books. Amon was going over some old case files.

Then there came a ripping noise as the Cheetos bag ripped and the Cheetos fell to the ground. Inuc and Tela rushed to catch them but Sakaki was suddenly underneath the Cheetos and was catching them as they fell.

He smiled and ate them. Inuc and Tela were not pleased and glared at him. Sakaki sweat-dropped and ran off, soon chased after by Inuc and Tela. Karasuma grumbled and tried to ignore them which seemed
impossible.

This continued until long after they had subdued Sakaki and were torturing him for eating their Cheetos. They then got into an argument of whose Cheetos they were. Karasuma got fed up with this and stood up. "Drop it already! Just go and by more Cheetos for goodness sake! They aren't going out of style anytime soon!" She then picked up her things and headed for the elevator. "I seriously do not know how Semenza can stand you two!" She then got in the elevator and left. They all stared after her.

Karasuma had totally forgotten about the notebook and went to Harry's for lunch...or whatever the closest meal was...then headed home. We will return to her later.

Michael left it at that and returned to his computer. Robin looked around and picked up a magazine to read.
"That was all your fault you know." Tela said. "Was not. It was yours for trying to take my Cheetos which I bought and then turned into Sakaki's fault for eating them." Sakaki looked at them guiltily and then rushed to the elevator and out of the building. "You can't get away that easily Sakaki!" Tela yelled and ran after him. She took the stairs and Lana soon saw her chasing him down the street. "Ugh..." She looked to Inuc and her eyes widened.

Inuc noticed Lana looking and silently asked what was wrong. Lana put her hands on her head and Inuc put her hands on her head. Her eyes widened. She had ears. She quickly went to the only mirror in the room and saw that her hair had turned silver and her ears had appeared. As she looked her hair returned to it's brown-ish color. She sighed and left it at that.

It was almost time to go when she felt her ears pop up again, she checked the mirror and saw that, not only had her hair changed back but she now had her golden eyes. They soon went back to normal and she sat back down. About 10 minutes later they popped up again and she then looked at her hands, her claws were coming back. Everything went back to normal. Now feeling nervous, she went to sit in the other room.

Every 10 minutes they'd popped back again each time with a new addition, her fangs came back the next time. The time after that the room filled with circles of light and she freaked. She motioned them away and as soon as she had changed back she quickly gathered her things. She was in the elevator in a flash and as soon as the doors opened she was out and on her motorcycle.

Soon it was time to go. Robin and Amon left but Lana stayed where she was. "Aren't you leaving too?" "Can't" "Huh? Why not?" Michael asked. "Stuck." "What?" "I sat still too long." "Oh..."He went over and pulled her up. She shook her self and thanked him. "Well, goodnight Michael." "Goodnight Lana."

She left and when she returned to the apartment she found Tela had returned and Inuc was in the shower.
"Welcome back." Tela looked extremely pleased with herself. "What did you do to the poor guy?" She held up Sakaki's jacket. "I didn't do anything really, but he really seems to be attached to this jacket." "Uh huh. And what else?" " Well, he now must bring me 4 bags of Cheetos tomorrow. 2 for me and 2 for Inuc." Lana laughed once then sat down. She laid on her bed on top of the covers until Inuc came out. Her hair was silver and she was fully demonized now. "So, what's the situation with the hair?" "I'm taking work off tomorrow. I can't seem to make myself look human anymore. You think maybe I exhausted my disguise ability?" Lana shrugged. "It's possible. We had just hope that Nova and company don't try anything." They both nodded and all three got ready for bed.

Karasuma was at home and was looking through her files. "It's quieter here than at the STN-J." she said. She picked up her bag and the notebook fell out. At first she forgot what it was then she remembered and opened it up. As she read through it she started wondering how anyone could have gotten this information.

Of course she had forgotten that Inuc and Lana were in the STN-J at the moment. She found information on all the members of the STN-J and was astounded. "Who did all this? The pictures are amazingly accurate." She remembered that on the inside of the front cover it had said Inuyasha-Chan and figured that Inuyasha-Chan and Lana must've been spying on them. She then got to the part with Inuc, Lana, and Tela. She read Inuc's and was shocked. She then remembered that she had figured this at the STN-J but had forgotten in all the commotion. She read through Lana's and Tela's and found that it was very interesting. "Tomorrow I must talk with Fleur, I mean Inuyasha-Chan about this. She has some explaining to do." With that she went to bed.

Next Day

Lana and Tela came into work just after Karasuma. "Where's Fleur?" Karasuma asked. "She isn't feeling good so she stayed home." "Oh, is that so?" Karasuma seemed suspicious. "Yes. Seems she had been working herself to hard and wasn't able to get up today." At a look from Karasuma she added, "Yes, she works after she leaves here too." She then sat at the window making sure to change positions every once in a while so as not to get stuck again. Karasuma slipped the notebook out as Michael went over to sit with Lana and Tela.

He whispered, "What's wrong with Fleur?" Lana touched her head and made movements as if drawing ears on her own head. Michael looked confused. She sighed and mumbled something. "What?" She said it a little louder but it still wasn't audio-able.

"Oh for crying out loud, Lana just say it." Tela said softly. "She can't disguise herself."

"What?"

"You didn't hear me?"

"No no, I did. But what do you mean?"

"She has been disguised as a human 24/7 ever since we left France. She's exhausted herself."

"Ooooh" Tela was looking around the room. "Hey Michael."

"Yeah?"

"Where's Inuc's booklet? We left it with you didn't we?" Michael sweat-dropped.

"Uh...Ya, you did."

"And?"

"I kinda just threw it into a drawer. And I don't remember which one."

Tela was about to yell at him when Karasuma came over. "You mean this book?"

She held up the notebook. They gaped at her.

"How'd you?" Lana started and Karasuma said, "It was in my desk drawer."

Lana stood up. "Let's discuss this somewhere else shall we?" She walked into the conference room and shut the door behind them.

"Now tell me Karasuma, have you read it yet?"

"Yes" she said, nodding. "All of it?" Tela asked. She nodded again.

"Oi-ya ve"((sorry if I spelt it wrong)) Tela sighed.

"Well, this is a twist of events isn't it." Michael said.

"Does anyone else know?" Lana asked.

"I haven't shown anyone yet. But I might show them, seeing as how it might help them." She had a threatening look on.

"Please Miss Karasuma, don't. Amon won't understand, and I don't even know Robin that well." Tela pleaded.

Karasuma smirked. "How many people know this secret?"

"Michael, Me, Tela, Inuc, and Sakaki. And now you of course."

"Ah! so Sakaki knows too, does he?" Sakaki then entered the room but was about to leave when Tela pulled him in and closed the door.

"Um...Am I interrupting something?" He asked.

"Not really. Karasuma found the book that MICHAEL put in her desk."

"Sorry, geese."

"Oh. Well...this is a dilemma isn't it?"

"Stop it with the "isn't it" things! we get it!" Lana yelled.

"Keep it down Lana" Michael said as Sakaki looked around.

"Where's Inuc?" Sakaki asked.

Michael said, "She's having problems."

"Really? Like what?"

Lana took the book from Karasuma and turned it to Inuc's page. She pointed to the picture of her with silver hair. "These problems."

"I'm not following."

"She's having problems looking like this." She pointed to the brown haired picture.

"Oh. That can really happen?"

"Yes stupid, it can. We don't have an unlimited power source."

"Really, because witches can go on for hours." Sakaki stated.

"Yes, but witches only have one power. We have many."

"I see."

"Yes, you do."

"Now, let's get one thing straight. No one speaks of this or tells anyone about this in any way shape or form." She said this very clearly so that no one would miss it.

"Ai Ai Captain!" ((sorry for spelling again if I messed it up.)) Sakaki said and put a hand to his head.

"Stop that."

"Alright." He slumped down in a chair.

"Are we agreed?" Michael and Tela nodded. "Karasuma?"

"Ok, but if worse comes to worse I will tell Amon and Robin. Though I would think that you girls need to tell them yourselves before hand." Lana and Tela rolled their eyes. Then they all left the room and the rest of the day continued as normal.

Michael stopped Lana before she left the room. "Hey, what's Inuc doing though?" "She is sleeping."

"What?"

"She's sleeping." Michael nodded, though he was still probably confused.

At the Apartment

Inuc was sleeping uncomfortably. She then shot straight up in bed.

"I...I was fighting Nova...then everything went black...I was falling." She looked around and held her head. She had a headache. She then went to take a shower.

Somewhere in the city.

The members of Nova's gang held a meeting.

It was a dark room with the only light being a swinging light above a table.

"How long do we have to wait Nova? I'm getting impatient."

"Oh stop it, Mako, you just want to smash stuff."

"Your pushing it Mica!"

She laughed. An axe fell down on the table and it broke. "I wanna get my axe into something besides wood. Wanna be my volunteers?" Tiki walked into the light and smirked. They looked at her nervously.

"Call down now children..." Came a voice from the shadows. "You will all have your fun....in time" Nova slowly walked into view, as menacing to them as ever. They bowed, "Master, How long before we can attack?" Mica asked.

"Not long." He said, waving his hand in front of him and the table reassembled with a bowl on it, the bowl was filled with water that showed the STN-J members one-by-one. "They think they know my powers, but they are severely mistaken. It will be their undoing." The pictures stopped on Inuc...or at least the door to the bathroom and the sound of running water.

"That girl is your true target, right Nova?"

"Yes...But that is not your business Mako!" He glared at Mako and Mako took a step back.

"You just don't like the fact that she has a new boyfriend...typical of you Nova. You get worked up over the smallest things. But you shouldn't jump to conclusions so fast." Chikibanotomo said, walking in. "Master" He mocked. Nova had him pinned to the wall.

"You'd best keep your mouth shut 'Chiki' or you'll be next on my list."

"I don't care. I already betrayed you once, I can do it again." Nova threw him towards the door

"You'd best leave, now. For next time I see you, I'll kill you." He turned around and walked over him on his way out the door. Chiki got up and left with the others staring after him.

Jess :: That's it for chapter 9! Tune in next time for chapter 10! Sorry if there is total screwyness in this chapter! I haven't written in so long I may have crossed some mistakes areas. Just tell me if I messed up and I'll try to fix it.
