Thank you for your wonderful reviews and I just like to apologise for taking so long to update. Hope you enjoy this chapter!
Title: A surprise visitor
A small groveling man crouched in front of another who was pacing the room calmly.
The man who they called the Boss had a striking face and stature. You knew his was a man of authority at first glance but what was most deterring about him was the cold pair of calculating eyes he wore on his face.
He stopped in front of his desk, his dark flowing hair swished in the air as he opened the draw waiting for the guy on the ground to finish talking.
He swung around picking up the gun and aimed. Three quick bangs were issued and soon the floor was spewing with blood and brain blasted out the guy's head from the bullets.
After a minute Bankotsu came in with a few men behind him who set about cleaning the mess in the room.
"Sir!" Bankotsu said with his head bowed.
"Yes Bankotsu, is there something you need?" The man asked, a smile on his face as he sat down placing the still smoking gun back in the draw.
Bankotsu shifted nervously looking at the dead body from the corner of his eye.
"No sir, I just want to inform you that the relationship between Kagome and Inuyasha is confirmed, it seemed that they already knew each other before he arrive in America ten years ago."
The man chuckled. "Is that the only thing you want to say?"
"Why did you kill one of my men Naraku?" Bankotsu said flatly waiting for the man's response.
The guy shifted slightly surprised then started laughing. The intimidating sound rang in the air as menacing as an unspoken threat.
"You did your homework well Bankotsu to know who I really am." There was an edge to the smile in his voice.
"However, that piece of knowledge would do you little good Bankotsu." He drawled. "By knowing my true identity I can guarantee that one day you will not be able to leave this place alive."
"You can try to kill me sir but you cannot forget the promise you made to me."
"It is really a wonder why a pitiful guy like you would care so much about your brothers."
"You have never cared in your life for whatever you do, I doubt you will understand."
"No I will not Bankotsu and I don't plan to. To answer your question, killing that guy was minor punishment for failing to do his duty to bring Kagome here."
"I would not think that death is a minor punishment sir."
"Bankotsu Bankotsu," Naraku signed. "You know too little about this society we are dealing with. To die a quick death is something which many others have wished for but can never get or would you have preferred me to put him through many years of torture before I kill him??
"No sir."
"Good, I am sure you have other things to see to Bankotsu." He said abruptly.
Bankotsu caught the words of dismissal and made his leave unable to forget the terror in the eyes of the guy Naraku had killed so quickly.
That was the third guy he had lost under Naraku's hand. One day he will make Naraku give back to him twice of what he has taken.
"Miroku, why do you think this Naraku guy wants us to be in his concert?" Inuyasha asked as he drove to his rehearsal.
Miroku shrugged. "I don't really care, as long as it benefits us, does it really matter?"
"I don't know, somehow I don't really like this person."
Miroku looked at him. "Aren't you judging this guy a bit quickly? After all you haven't met him yet."
"It's just this feeling Miroku and I don't like it."
"There is a spot there." Miroku pointed and directed Inuyasha to the place. After they finish parking they got out of the car and walked into the building.
Their footsteps rang across the hall, the polished marble tiles gleaming under the fluorescent light.
"What are we doing here anyway?" Inuyasha asked as they turned a corner and walked up a flight of stairs.
"Partly to rehearse and get this show together and well, mainly to meet this guy we're dealing with."
"It better not take long." Inuyasha grumbled and pushed open the door where Naraku was waiting behind it.
.
"Kagome!" Kouga called running to catch up with her. Kagome turned around and signed inwardly. She had being trying avoiding Kouga lately yet somehow he always seems to know where she was.
She put on a fake smile and greeted Kouga.
Kouga stood puffing in front of her his hand behind his back.
"Surprise!" He said holding up two tickets in front of Kagome's face. "This is the VIP ticket for the premiere of the movie The Scent of Love. I heard you and the girls talking about it so I thought you might want to see it."
"Kouga please-"
"Here's the ticket, you won't believe how hard it was to get one of this tickets. I will meet you tonight outside the cinema ok? Bye!" He grinned at her and ran off.
"Kouga, Kouga..." Kagome signed in despair. Tonight was the night Inuyasha and she was meeting and for Kouga to pick to same night to ask her out on simply bad luck.
"You are so lucky Kagome." Someone signed.
Kagome jumped and turned around to see Ayame standing behind her.
"What do you mean?"
Ayame smiled, annoyance fleeting across her face. "I mean how lucky of you to get to see the movie premiere with Kouga. I wish I was in your shoes right now."
Kagome looked at her out of the corner of her eye realising with a start that Ayame must have feelings for Kouga. She was guilty for not realising the truth earlier.
She suddenly had an idea. "Ayame here's the ticket, why don't you go with Kouga tonight instead of me?"
Ayame stared at her pushing the ticket away. "Are you crazy? Kouga wants you to go with him not me. You can't just go around giving the tickets away, don't you care about all the effort he spent in getting them?" She exclaimed.
Kagome fell silent and looked away for a moment. "To tell you the truth Ayame, I have never viewed Kouga anymore than a close friend."
"But he likes you-"
"Don't you think I know that?" Kagome retorted. "I have being trying to tell him but he just won't listen."
"What are you going to do?" Ayame asked after a while.
"I was hoping that you could help me." Kagome looked at her. "Go to the movie for me."
Inuyasha pulled into the drive way and slammed the door shut angrily. The meeting had gone badly and further more it had confirmed his suspicion about Naraku.
He doesn't quite know the answer but he does know that his doings are nothing close to good.
He walked up the drive way to his front door to find it wide open. He couldn't believe it, now he has a thief in his house. Could his day get any worse.
He stormed inside his eye's widening in surprise when he saw-
"Inuyasha!" The girl cried and threw herself at Inuyasha, her arms wrapping around his neck.
"What are you doing here Kikyo?" He exclaimed pulling her off him. "I thought you were in America, why did you come here?"
"What? Am I not welcome here?" Kikyo said pouting.
"Please answer my question Kikyo."
Kikyo signed and sat down. "Come here Inuyasha, look at what I bought you. I would have come here earlier had I known there were so many stores to shop from."
"Kikyo!"
"Okay okay. Geez come down Inu. I was just bored back at home and you were taking so long here so I thought I might as well as come here to be with you."
"I told you to wait for me Kikyo, I will be busy here so I wouldn't be able to spent time with you."
"That's okay, I'll just wait until you finish work."
"Kikyo! Stop this-"
"Don't say anything Inuyasha, I miss you so much. Now that I back with you, let not argue anymore. Okay?"
Inuyasha signed and embraced her, how was he going to tell Kagome about this, he did not know.
"See Ya!" Kagome called waving at Sango. She got on her bike and pedaled home to prepare for her date with Inuyasha tonight.
She smiled to herself thinking back to that night when she had slapped him. She knew she had misunderstood Inuyasha, after all this years; he was still just as caring and sweet as he was ten years ago.
She couldn't wait to see him tonight.
"Kikyo I have to go out tonight, if you feel lonely just call Miroku and he will come to accompany you."
"No Inuyasha, you can go whenever you like but just not tonight. It's our first time together after we've being apart for so long, how can you just leave me here?"
"Kikyo!" Inuyasha cried in frustration. "This meeting is important to me; we can celebrate any day but not tonight."
"You got another girl don't you?" Kikyo said coldly. "You were always like that Inuyasha, doing what ever you like."
Inuyasha signed. "Kikyo-"
"No I don't want to hear it!" She cried. "Either you stay here with me tonight or leave me forever."
She glared at him. "Choose Inuyasha, choose right now."
A few miles away, a lonely girl waited in the dark on the very spot they had met last time they were together.
The wind lashed in the air like howling ghosts whipping the leaf and sand into a miniature tornado striking all that barred its way.
Kagome hugged her self sheltering behind a tree wondering to herself whether Inuyasha would arrive or not.
"What is your decision?" Kikyo asked. Her eye's narrowing.
Inuyasha glanced at the glass bottle which contained the dried lavender and signed inwardly.
"I'll stay." He replied regretting it almost immediately looking away from Kikyo's triumphant smile.
