WD: You found the rough drafts then did you?....Err...on with the story! And I'm only going to reply to the reviews for chapter 4. And next time I'll only review for chapter 5 and so on and so forth....
~*~Chapter 5: Toukijin's Blood~*~
BEEP! BEEP!
Kagome blinked sleepily and looked at her alarm clock, 7:45am. Her eyes widened and she jumped out of bed. Kagome quickly grabbed something from her closet and pulled it on, then rushed out the door.
Breakfast? A fleeting dream.
Down the stairs of the shrine she flew. On the last step she tripped and before she could hit the ground a strong pair of arms caught her. Kagome looked up at her savior and was met with a smirking Taiyoukai.
"I see you overslept again." Sesshoumaru said. She yawned and climbed into the passenger side of the fanciest and probably the most expensive car she had ever seen. Sesshoumaru climbed into the drivers side of the black 2 person car and started the engine. It had been almost a week sense Kagome had started working at GT. Each day Sesshoumaru had picked her up in a huge limo or in a car that probably cost more than her house.
"Do we have to listen to this?" Kagome asked, pointing to the radio that had classical music coming from it.
"Must I repeat what I say every morning?" Sesshoumaru asked, smirking as they stopped for a stoplight. His hair had been tied up into a low ponytail that covered his ears, which probably meant he hadn't bothered to cover their pointiness with magic.
"But we listen to this everyday." Kagome protested.
"It is my car."
"But-"
"Would you like some breakfast?" Sesshoumaru asked. She shook her head but blushed when her stomach growled. Sesshoumaru smirked and pulled into the nearest fast food place, a Burger King. (A.N: Hey it was the first thing that popped into my mind...not to mention that I was hungry at the time.)
"I don't think we have time to stop." Kagome said, checking her watch.
"You are right. We don't have time." Sesshoumaru said, pulling into the drive-through.
"Then-"
"Did you forget I own the company?"
"Don't you have some meeting soon?" Kagome asked.
"Yes. But listening to a bunch of lowly humans who have nothing better to do than to try to take over the corporate world bores me." Sesshoumaru said. Kagome couldn't blame him.
"Can I take your order?" The crackly voice said over the intercom.
"Umm...I guess some french toast would be okay." Kagome said.
"Please drive up to the 2nd window." When Sesshoumaru handed her the greasy bag Kagome looked hungrily at her breakfast, the warm smell of french toast and syrup flooded her nose. She was about to dig in when a clawed hand stopped her.
"Wait." Sesshoumaru said.
"But-"
"No eating in the car." He said firmly. Kagome leaned back and nodded, enjoying the smooth ride to GT headquarters. She fell asleep in the car a couple minutes later, her head resting against the seatbelt. Sesshoumaru sighed and wondered how he kept getting himself into these messes.
Kagome was awaken by a jolt and looked around. "What happened?" She asked sleepily.
"Some baka decided to pull out in front of us." Sesshoumaru growled softly. Kagome was now awake....and still hungry as they pulled into the parking lot of GT Headquarters. Sesshoumaru pulled the black car into a special parking lot where he and a couple other bosses could park.
"I told you we were late." Kagome said, seeing the cars from the people from Sesshoumaru's meeting. Kagome remembered the awful afternoon 3 days ago, after one meeting Kagome was dragged along as one of the men took everyone out for lunch. Kagome sat doodling on her napkin and Sesshoumaru was shredding his napkin carefully with his claws while the other businessmen talked, unaware of what the Taiyoukai and miko where doing.
"Would you like to come with me to this meeting?" Sesshoumaru asked on the way to his office.
"Not really...after what happened last time." Kagome said. Sesshoumaru smirked, remembering when one of the men had too much sake and made a complete fool of himself.
"Sesshoumaru-sama! We thought you weren't going to show up!" Kagome heard Sesshoumaru sigh as 6 lean businessmen surrounded the Taiyoukai and Kagome.
"Traffic." Was all Sesshoumaru said. He handed Kagome his briefcase and headed towards one of the many meeting rooms, the business sharks following him. Kagome unlocked Sesshoumaru's office with the key he had given her and put his briefcase on the table and started her breakfast.
"I wonder..." Kagome said to no one halfway through her french toast. She wiped her hands off and pulled out a book from Sesshoumaru's bookshelf.
Feudal Japan. Myths and Facts
'Well...he wrote it...let's see what he said about the Shikon Jewel.' Kagome finished her breakfast and washed her hands before even thinking of touching the book, knowing Sesshoumaru would probably find a crumb anyway.
Kagome soon found herself buried into the book the Taiyoukai had written. She was learning facts from before she had fallen into the well. Some was about Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru's father ruling the Western Lands and fighting off the youkai from China that had tried to take over. (A.N: That was in Inuyasha Movie 1 by the way) It also talked about when the cats had tried to take over again (A.N: Episodes 75-77) and Kagome found the information on the Shikon Jewel to be quite accurate.
"I wonder how many people think he's insane?" Kagome asked, turning the page.
"Quite a few I would think." Kagome slammed the book shut as she jumped at the voice behind her. Sesshoumaru stood there, leaning against the door.
"Ummm...how was your meeting?" Kagome asked, picking up the book and placing it one the table...she would finish it later.
"Boring." He replied. "And sadly I have another one in 2 hours."
"Why don't you skip it?" Kagome asked.
"I can't, sadly...but I'll probably leave early from boredom." Sesshoumaru answered. He slide a pad of paper and a pen towards Kagome, who looked at it in confusion. "Copy what I say." Kagome nodded and clicked the pen, ready to write whatever Sesshoumaru said.
"One chicken lo mein, one-"Sesshoumaru began, but was cut off by Kagome.
"What? This isn't-"
"You're saying you don't want lunch?" Sesshoumaru asked. Kagome thought about that for a second, then sighed.
"Alright." Kagome said, writing down her order.
"And one green tea." Sesshoumaru finished. Kagome nodded and called in the order. The person working at the Chinese Wok said it would be there in 30 minutes. Kagome took a seat at the table in the corner and continued reading, rolling her eyes every so often at some comment Sesshoumaru had made while writing his book. Sesshoumaru kept himself busy reading reports from part of his company in Brazil and watching Kagome roll her eyes at some comment he had written in his book.
"Sesshoumaru-sama. Your food is here." The crackly voice from the intercom said.
"I'll get it." Kagome said as she jumped up. She came back a minute later with a large plastic bag, the warm smell of Chinese food flooded the room. Kagome put the bag on the corner table and Sesshoumaru sat in one of the chairs on the other side of the table. Kagome dug her container of fried rice out of the bag, along with a small soda. Sesshoumaru pulled his styrofoam container of chicken lo mein and green tea out and started eating his food one piece at a time.
"I must say your human cooking has improved over the last 200 years or so." Sesshoumaru said, taking another bit out of his chicken.
"When I was in the Feudal Era, we ate whatever youkai we found or whatever ramen I had." Kagome said.
"The food has improved, but I sometimes I wouldn't mind a raw youkai...after hunting it down of course." Sesshoumaru said, watching Kagome's face and smirking.
~*~
After they had finished eating Kagome took out a math book that she had bought and started to self-teach herself. For some time Kagome was flipping through her math book and writing numbers down, when she looked at the clock she gasped.
"Sesshoumaru....your meeting started 30 minutes ago!" Sesshoumaru calmly looked up from his game of computer chess and looked at the clock.
"So it has." He said, turning back to his game.
"Don't you have to be there?" Kagome asked.
"Probably." Sesshoumaru answered, taking a sip of his tea.
"But what if the meeting is important?"
"Kagome, all they want is GT and I have no intention of giving it to them."
"But-"
"I'll go when I finish." Sesshoumaru said, moving his knight to E3. Kagome sighed and continued her work.
Five minutes later Kagome checked her work and sighed...she had a lot to learn.
"Checkmate." Sesshoumaru said, and smirked at the computer's downfall.
"Does that mean you're finally ready to go your meeting that started a hour ago?" Kagome asked, having finished today's math lesson.
"I would have finished sooner if you had not slammed your book down and startled me into moving my pawn into the wrong square." Sesshoumaru stated.
"It was one pawn." Kagome countered. She had slammed her book down for good reason, she knew her answer was right and her math book said otherwise.
"One pawn can mean the difference between victory and defeat." Sesshoumaru said. As he headed out the door he looked at Kagome. "Try not to make a mess."
"Wh...." Kagome was about to yell at him but the Taiyoukai was gone. Kagome sighed and looked around the room and gasped. There was a small door on one side of the room. 'How come I never noticed that door before?' Kagome wondered.
The door was next to one of the bookshelves, and there wasn't much room between the bookshelf and the wall, which was probably why she had never seen the door before. Kagome put her biology book down and wandered over to the door. She carefully opened it and found a small hallway leading to another room.
'I wonder.....' Kagome had a gut feeling that she shouldn't go in there....but she ignored her feeling and walked down the small hallway.
When she felt the dark hallway end she groped around for a light switch and gasped when light flooded into the room.
"Wow......" Was all Kagome could say. There on the wall hung Tenseiga and Toukijin. The swords gleamed in the light and neither of them had a bit of rust on them. Tenseiga and Toukijin looked like they were new, they didn't have any scratches and looked to be well taken care of. Kagome took another step towards the swords and looked around the rest of the room. Kagome felt tears start to well up in her eyes when she saw what was on the wall opposite Tenseiga and Toukijin. There was the sheath for Tetsusaiga, the sword was missing, but it brought painful memories back to Kagome.
"Inuyasha....." Kagome whispered. She carefully touched Tetsusaiga's sheath and stood there, letting memories wash over her. After some time had passed, and she had composed herself, she went to the other swords.
Before Kagome could reach the other swords Toukijin flashed violently and sent a wave of sharp energy at Kagome, knocking the miko out and slicing her arm.
