Chapter 8
Lost, Now Found
"I can't wait for you to wake up Kagome," the man whispered as he pushed Kagome's limp body into one of the chairs. He pulled himself into the another and sat there, staring at the girl's beauty. He smiled, running his fat hands over the thin mustache that topped his upper lip. He stared at the girl, his eyes looking her up and down, studying her.
Kagome continued to act like she was asleep. She almost thought she had given away the obvious when she had felt the man run his hand lightly over her butt. She had frozen slightly, but the man had taken no care in it. He shoved her roughly into a chair and she heard him slip into the other one. As she felt his gaze, she murmured something about sea monkeys softly and turned away.
Suddenly, Kagome felt a sharp prick. Her captor had stepped on her foot. Not being able to stop herself as it was too late, she yelped and the man roughly pulled her up to his face. He smiled wickedly and fear sliced through Kagome's body like never before.
"How ya feeling InuYasha?" Anderebu asked as they stopped to take a break. InuYasha sat down on a log and sighed, looking at the trees surrounding them.
"We've got no idea where they are. They could be miles away from here," he murmured softly.
"You said they went this way though," Anderebu pointed out.
"I said they went into the woods. They could have gone through and then hopped a taxi to the airport."
"What are the chances of that?" Anderebu said sarcastically, "Look, they're in here. Somewhere. We just have to find them."
InuYasha took another deep breath before standing, "Let's go."
"You never said anything," InuYasha said softly an hour later. They had been walking in silence the whole time and the sound of InuYasha's voice made Anderebu jump.
"About what?"
"You liking Kagome. Why didn't you tell me?"
Anderebu blushed slightly and stared at the ground, "Because I knew you liked her. I was afraid it would ruin our friendship. So I kept quiet. Besides, she likes you anyway. I'm just the nice boy in her class who's locker happens to be near hers."
"You're right... I would have gotten jealous if I had known. Thanks Anderebu... for coming with me. You're right, I can't save her myself."
Anderebu, still looking away muttered a soft "Welcome." Before falling silent again.
"You... you don't think they're in there do ya?" Anderebu said, staring at the small, run down building.
"Don't know. That place has been closed for five years now I think. They closed it off because it was..." InuYasha trailed off thinking.
"Dangerous to the public or something like that," finished Anderebu, "It's possible ya know. I mean, no one would think to look in there."
They were staring at an old garage. It had been a body shop for cars a few years back but like InuYasha had said, it was closed five years ago because of a poisonous substance found inside. It was considered a hazard and after it had been closed, no one ever went back to clean up the mess. It was at the very bottom of the city's 'To Do List.' Stepping closer, InuYasha thought he heard something.
"It's... it sounds like... breathing. Yes! Someone's in there!" InuYasha said softly as they took another step closer.
"You... you don't suppose..." Anderebu said, staring wide eyed at the building.
"Ya... they're in there all right. And it's time for the hero's to come."
