I don't own Inuyasha or any of it's characters, but I do own this plot, and my own original characters. Settings may be real, but are set in a futuristic area, not meant to offend anyone from the areas mentioned. Characters may also be very OC, because I felt like it.

Chapter 1: The Lockdown

The night was dark, a mist settling over the island of Fera. The moon glistened in the water, swishing around the dock in a battle between wood and water, the turbulence after speed boats.

This island was home to 2 historical buildings in the great land of Japan, now known as Musashi. The first thing, was the great Inuyoukai statue, which was given to Musashi from the leader of present day Hong Kong. Unfortunately, this great statue was in ruins after a terrorist attack. The second building was the Headquarters of MEATC, which stands for Musashi Elite Anti-terrorist Coalition. The military agents and field operators are known as 'The world's police'.

But all was not calm. Gunshots were fired, and the screams of the guard foot soldiers echoed through the night. Men in grey and dark blue body armour swept through the island, occupying the dock and the statue. Headquarters immediately went under lockdown. The soldiers of MEATC were ready to go in, but the order was to hold back. This was a perfect test for the new recruit, who just stepped onto the island. The highly enrolled officials wanted to see how she handled a true situation. She, was Sango Tajiya.

Her steps were quick as she walked through the dock, her black overcoat swinging gracefully in her wake, as did her long chestnut hair in the high ponytail it was in. Her tank top was a dark purple, and her jeans were a a dark blue tint. Her black boots clicked quietly, her silver belt buckle shining in the moonlight, as well as her dark sunglasses. But what stuck out, was her electric blue eyes, and the fact that small, blue wires could be seen faintly under her skin in certain areas. A figure that demanded respect, in the opinion of most.

Buzz, click, Beep. What the hell was that? Sango thought as she heard the noises in her head.

" Welcome aboard the MEATC team. I'm Shippo Kitsune, and I'll be helping you out through the info link. Meet your brother, Kohaku, at the north side of the dock, you'll be briefed on your mission. Base is under lockdown until you complete the objectives at hand." A voice said, ringing behind her ears. Sango shook her head, and shrugged, walking to the north side of the dock. Her brother, Kohaku, was running towards her.

His appearance was similar to her own. His dark glasses also covered is electrical eyes. He had a goatee and a stubble around his mouth, connected to a mustache. His hair was also dark, held in the typical high ponytail. His overcoat, body armour and jeans were a dark purple tint, while his jeans were a dark blue. Although he was younger then Sango, he made it into the academy and MEATC before Sango did, for reasons unknown.

" Kohaku, I thought you were assigned in Hong Kong." Sango stated, leaning against the dock post. Kohaku gave a light chuckle, his tall and lean form hidden under the overcoat.

" You think I would miss my sister's first day? I got... Re-assigned, that's all, technical business. Anyway, we've got some big problems. The WRS, or Worldwide Rebellion Secessionists, have taken control of the island and captured one of our top agents, Kanna Kaze. Ms. Shikon told us to hold back, let you go in alone. We're not sure what the WRS wants, so it's up to you to interrogate their leader, so don't kill him." Kohaku explained, pointing towards the statue. Sango nodded.

" Alright, but all I've got is my pistol and a puny electric prod. MEATC better issue some hardware, I can't do much with pea-shooters." Sango chuckled out, looking at the electric prod with a raised eyebrow. Kohaku nodded, and pulled out a scope. He handed it to Sango.

" Here. We can't give you much yet, but it'll let you have some more distance to work with. Try to stick with a non-lethal take down, it's the quietest. Anyway, see you around." Kohaku waved his hand, and sped off around the dock. Sango shrugged and attached the scope.

" Cheap. Very cheap. Oh well, beggars can't be choosers..." Sango mumbled, peering around the corner that lead into the main area. WRS soldiers were littered across the main routes. Sango looked around, and found an old beer bottle. She chucked it past the guard, and it connected with the wall near the main base. He ran to see what it was. Sango leapt forward, and used the electric prod in his ribs. He went down quickly, completely unconscious. She tossed him into a dark corner, after disarming him. She checked out the gun he had, and gave another short chuckle. No wonder we got attacked, these guys have better weapons then we do. Once again, cheap craps... Sango thought, continuing along her way.

Click, Beep.

" I see you've noticed all the shadows you can use. Don't worry, no one can hear this, it bypasses everything and sends the message straight to your brain. An informant is at the dock, but you might not need him. A back way into the statue would help. Our agent, Kanna, is being held at the bottom floor. Watch out for the security bot out front." The voice stated once again. Sango's eyes narrowed, very annoyed. I hate people who like to talk... She thought as she shot down a few soldiers from about 100 paces. She continued her sweep of the island, until she came to an area, where the security bot was circulating.

She clambered over a wall, and leapt onto a small building in the middle of the area. A large statue of a gargoyle perched on the end. Sango waited for the bot to come around the corner. She shoved hard, and the statue came down on the robot in a big bang. Sango leapt down, and used a lock pick she had picked up along the way to unlatch the door.

The area was filled with soldiers, but the defense was sloppy. Sango opened a grate, and climbed through the ventilation shafts. When she emerged, she was behind most of the soldiers. A few effortless shots, and she simply opened the lock to the area they kept Kanna.

It was not what she had expected. This agent was female, but incredibly small. Her grey skin and black body armor were an odd sight for the albino. The millions of wires and metal plating showed through the skin, and her eyes held and electric gaze.

" Thank you for opening the door. Now, please hand me a pistol, and I will secure this area." Sango was slightly taken a back. No way, this is mine! Sides, I don't trust these mechs... 90 metal doesn't count for loyalty. Sango thought, tucking her gun into her belt.

" Other then my pistol and this prod, I don't have anything else. I'm sorry I can't spare any arms right now." Sango said calmly, staring into Kanna's cold eyes. Kanna nodded, and Sango could hear her joints clicking as she walked out. Sango shook out her creepy feeling, and ascended the stairs that led to the top of the statue. The defense was beginning to wane, and Sango knelt at the overhang of the stairs, listening to a conversation of 2 soldiers.

" Listen, the Shikon is already on the speed boats, why don't we just ditch? I don't want to get hurt..."

" We can't fake out. We need to last this diversion as long as possible. Plus, if the commander goes down, who knows what will happen." Sango took this as an opportunity. She ducked through the shadows, and quickly hit each of the guards with the butt of her gun, knocking them out.

" Sweet dreams." She teased as she began running up the stairs again. After a few floors, she climbed the last ladder, and pointed the gun at the commander.

" Talk." She barked out, staring the commander down. He chuckled.

" Ask away, we've already won this round." He replied, his hands in the air.

" Why is the WRS attacking the island? It's a pretty stupid move." Sango asked, sitting on a crate. The commander laughed.

" It's not an attack, a diversion. The Shikon is going back to the people. Only government people get to use it, so we figure it's time the lower class gets a chance to live as well. But you couldn't know. You're one of those mech-android types. You don't get sick, do you?" The commander taunted, his eyes scanning over her. Sango shrugged.

" Augmented, not mech. Maybe I don't, but that doesn't mean I don't care for the people. Maybe you're right about the limited supply, but they're working on it. And, a piece of advice: Taunting a nano-technically augmented agent with a gun isn't exactly a good idea. You're lucky my orders aren't to kill you. Bye. " Sango tossed back over her shoulder, descending the stairs. Other foot soldiers ascended past her, their assault guns clinking loudly. Sango made her way back to base, all of the WRS gone. She reached the base's gate, where Kohaku was leaning casually, picking his teeth with a toothpick.

" So, how'd it go?" He asked, discarding of the toothpick. Sango shrugged.

" I didn't kill him. Something about Shikon, that cure for Hell's curse. Anyway, what do I do now?" Sango asked, brushing some grass off of her shoulder. Kohaku pointed to the base.

" Go talk to Ms. Shikon for a debriefing. Just talk to people, you'll get around. I've got to go, so I'll check with you later." Kohaku said calmly, whisking away into the darkness. Sango opened the main door, and began traveling through the building...

This was the beginning.
