Twenty-four hours later, Washington, D.C.
Inuyasha Tikon shoved his key into the lock, taking satisfaction in the distinct click of tumblers. Shouldering the strap of his duffel bag, he pushed his way inside his apartment, slamming the door behind him as he went.
A couple of hours later, after a shower and a meal, Sully settled down to go through his mail. The inevitable bills would need to be dealt with, and there was no time like the present. He sat on his sofa with the mail in his lap, sorting through the stack. Bills to his left, newspapers at his feet, personal mail to his right, catalogues in the trash.
About halfway through sorting, he came to a letter-size pack from FedEx. Curious, he glanced at the return address and start to smile. It was from Kikyo. Almost immediately he amend the thought to Sister Mary, although in his heart, she would always be Kikyo, his best friends little sister.
Setting aside the rest of the mail to be sorted out later, he tore into the packet and pulled out a handful of papers with a brief, handwritten letter from Kikyo on top. Scanning the papers, he quickly saw that they were Xeroxed copies of newspaper clippings. Curious, he picked up her letter and started to read.
Almost instantly, the smile he was wearing went south. He sat up with a jerk and reread her note before scanning the clippings, taking note of the areas she had highlighted.
"Well, hell," he muttered, and looked back at the letter. The last line on the page stopped his heart.
Inuyasha, please help. Kagome or I might be next.
He bolted to his feet and raced to the bedroom. His address book was still on the dresser where he had tossed it last week. Shuffling through pages, he found her address, as well as the phone number to Sacred Heart Convent. A sick feeling was building deep in his belly as he punched in the numbers. Surely to God he was making too much of this. Kikyo would answer and then laugh when he called, telling him she'd jumped to too many conclusions. That was it. As soon as he heard her voice, they would be laughing together. Yet when his call was answered, he found himself stumbling for words.
"Sacred Heart Convent, how may I help you?"
"I need to speak to Kikyo…I mean, Sister Mary."
He heard a soft gasp and then, "one moment please."
In the background he thought he could hear hasty whispers, and his stomach knotted. When a different person suddenly came on the line, he knew something was wrong.
"Mother Superior speaking. Who's calling, please?"
The woman's voice was stern, and he had instant flashbacks of a ruler popping on his head and being sent to stand in a corner. It took all he had to get out of that juvenile frame of mind and back to the problem at hand.
"This is Inuyasha Tikon. I'm a family friend of Sister Mary. I need to speak with her."
"Young man. I am so sorry…"
"Please." He pleaded. "It's important."
The woman sighed, and Inuyasha was surprised to hear tears in her voice.
"You just don't understand," she said. "It's not that I won't allow it. It's just that-" She stopped suddenly, changing her focus. "If you are a family friend then you should have already known. We lost Sister Mary to fate. She took her life. I am sorry sir." The nun hung up on the man.
Inuyasha dropped to the edge of the bed, his legs too weak to hold him.
"Kikyo. I am so sorry." He whispered to no one. "Wait." Shaking in grievance he jumped from the bed and searched through the letter from his friend. "Kagome." He tested the name on his lips before grabbing his coat and stampeding out of his home.
Inuyasha had the department notified of everything and his chief recommended he take time off to help out on his own personal case. Extra backup was given along with a safe place and different identities. What was happening had to now do with the Witness Protection Service and they could waste no time in helping their new victim.
Having all the information about Kagome as possible Inuyasha set out on a mission to save the girl. He knew deep down that his reasons were far more significant than just playing hero. He felt guilty that he could not save his long time friend, and therefore he would save hers.
Within hours of leaving his office, Inuyasha arrived at Kagome's apartment. He pounded harshly on her door not caring if she was sleeping or not. It was Sunday where else would she be? From what he knew she did not have a husband, or a boyfriend for that matter. Again he banged on the wood, but still no answer came. "Kagome! Kagome Higurashi are you in there?" Disturbed to the lack of noise the young man pulled a .45 caliber out of his belt and aimed it at the door hinge. Taking one step back Inuyasha lifted his leg and with a swift force busted himself into the entrance.
Empty. The place was completely desolate. Walking farther into the apartment gave him the distinct feeling that there wasn't anyone there, and from the looks of it that someone didn't plan on coming back for a while. After an hour of investigating each and every room Inuyasha concluded that the girl had fled. Either that or she was lucky enough to get a vacation in the middle February. Finally he glanced at the clock and saw how late it was. With a heavy sigh he slouched onto a kitchen chair and thought.
Lifting his head up, trying to crack his neck, he spotted something interesting. It was a note across from him. He stood up and glided to where it was pinned against the solid wall. He read it quickly and then backtracked and read it slower the second time. "Run Kagome, just run. And don't pick up the phone, no matter what. I love you my dear friend. God bless." He made an immediate guess that the note had come from Kikyo. Which meant that Kagome knew the danger.
Thinking it time to call his agency for his update he spun to find the phone. Noticing the telephone he went over to where it lay, but realized that there was a beeping red light flashing at him. Her messages, of course. He pushed play and began to listen to her twelve calls. He could honestly say that most of them were hang ups that disturbed him slightly. A couple were from concerned friends, but one caught his attention. It was from the girl's mother. In so many words the older woman had told her daughter that the beach house in South Carolina was set up for her arrival.
Inuyasha didn't know whether he was relieved or uptight. He should be happy that he at least knew where she was, but he was upset that she had told others where she was heading. He couldn't do anything about that then though. Right there he needed sleep, good sleep. In a real bed, and that was just what he was going to do.
Following his conversation with a deputy from his office Inuyasha scurried down the hall to the bedroom where he found an inviting bed and even a television set. After comfortably changing he lay down and snuggled up against Kagome's pillows. BIG MISTAKE! All of a sudden his thoughts took a turn for the worst. He could smell woman on the big, fluffy rectangle. No ugly woman could smell as good as that pillow did.
That's when the thought hit him. He had no clue to what the girl Kagome looked like. Finding himself curious the young man shifted into a sit position and looked on a bedside-table. There he saw a family photo to which he was certain had Kagome in it. How right he was. She stood in the middle of who he guessed to be her parents. In back of her were some mountains, but that didn't concern him. Her face was bright and beautiful. She had thick, raven colored hair with ice blue eyes. Her skin was pale, yet to it there was a tan tint, obviously natural. Freckles lightly decorated her small nose and Inuyasha couldn't help but chuckle at the innocence in her eyes. Oh what had he gotten himself into?
hmm could the great and powerful inuyasha have a school girls crush on itty witty kagome?
perhaps...perhaps not...they meat next chapter and that is all tha tmatters!
