disclaimor...not mine...the chorus in the first paragraph isn't mine either...it belongs to Terrorvision!
Chapter 24...right?


"Got to stay in one piece and stay out of jail. We've got to hide the dead girl. Got to lose the police who are hot on our trail. We've got to hide the dead girl!" Miroku sang at the top of his lungs. He couldn't figure out which he hated more, shopping or lugging around a female corpse. Neither really made him feel manly, but carrying the dead girl seemed to top the other. At least when he was being dragged around the mall he was satisfied with the smell of fast-food restaurants. Now all he could take a whiff of was the stench of death.

"Hey Inuyasha, since your on a roll, why don't you shoot your cousin too? I don't think I can stand another minute of his horrible voice." Sango. Poor and pathetic Sango. Miroku sighed at the thought of the beauty. He was suddenly disturbed with the image of his love hurling on his black-suede shoes when Inuyasha had shot the woman. Sango didn't blame Inuyasha though, but she was still grossed out.

Sesshomaru laughed awkwardly. "What?" he asked sarcastically, "you don't like Terrorvision? I must admit that song wasn't a favorite of mine, but it does seem to fit our current situation."

"We don't have a situation. All we have is a dead body, an unconscious girl, and a couple killing maniacs! This isn't a situation! This a problem, and it is a very big problem at that." Vented Rin who was having minor panic attacks every time she turned her head and was faced with a bloody figure.

"It's not like we aren't experienced in this Rin. There is nothing to worry about. We aren't going to get caught. Trust me." With a weak smile Sesshomaru pushed a button unlocking the SUV and snuck a glance at the girl. He could tell Rin wasn't doing well and was trying her best to stay calm. For the first time in his life he felt like a criminal and he didn't like the feeling.

Sango stopped suddenly and screamed. After moments of high-pitch torture she finally breathed deeply. "Have any of you seen the movie Very Bad Things?" She waited for seconds and continued, "Well then let me give you a summary, all right? These guys, normal guys, decide to have a bachelor party for their friend who is about to get married. They go to Las Vegas and order a hotel room. While they're there they do drugs and get hammered. Then there is a knock on the door and low and behold a stripper emerges. After some fun one of the guys takes the stripper into the bathroom to have a very private show. They have their fun, but during the action the stripper ends with a towel hanger shoved into the back of her head. To make matters worse a security guard enters the room and checks out what all the noise is. He finds the dead stripper and she is a bloody mess. So spontaneously one of the friends takes a corkscrew and plunges it into the guards torso. He doesn't die immediately so they lock him in the bathroom with the stripper and listen to him howl in pain until he also dies. To take care of the 'problem' the guys burry the now two dead people in the outskirts of the city." Sango looks at the terrified faces surrounding her and gains the needed confidence to finish her story. "When they go back home they are completely freaking out. I should have mentioned this before, but two of the guys are brothers and they are always fighting. At the rehearsal dinner for the wedding the older brother breaks down during the toasts and runs outside. All the friends follow him and question his sanity. The older brother blames his younger sibling, who had killed the stripper, and tells him to leave. The youngest does as he's told and jumps in his car and then sandwiches his brother between his own car and another. While on his death bed the older brother whispers to his wife what he promised he would never tell, the truth about what happened in Las Vegas. To make a long story short the wife was killed, then the younger brother, then another friend, and to top it all off one of the guys lives the rest of his life as a vegetable."

"Is there a reason you are sharing your disgusting choice in movies?" Inuyasha asked as he shifted Kagome in his arms. All he wanted to do was get her home and stop listening to the morbid story.

"Yes! The reason is because I want you to see what killing person can cause! You are starting a dominoes effect! You began by shooting that girl and then you guys killed all those men, every last one of them!" She slid into the backseat of the vehicle and cursed through clenched teeth. "What is next? Huh? Rin, then me, and eventually Kagome?"

"Don't be stupid Sango. We were planning stopping with you." Sesshomaru pulled the keys into the ignition and waited until everyone was safely buckled up. Just as he began turning the key he heard the most frightening sound. Sirens. Blaring and flashing a caravan of police cars flooded the parking lot and men raced to the entrance of the mall. "This is not good."

"That is the understatement of the century." Inuyasha added in awe. "They blocked our way out. What do we do now?"

"You tell me little brother. Aren't you the boss now?" The way Sesshomaru raised his eyebrow and questioned Inuyasha wasn't an accusation, but a way of encouraging him. He just wanted to see the new Kingpin take action and control. Learn the ropes and how to tie them to his benefit.

"We stay. We wait. That's all we can do."

"Inuyasha! You must be joking!" Kagome flew upward on her husband's lap and stared him down.

"She is alive! Alive I tell you!" Miroku wailed into the air. Not considering the danger he was in, and not really caring.

"Don't be jealous just because my girl is still breathing while yours is long overdue." Everyone chuckled at Inuyasha's comeback and briefly forgot what was truly troubling them. "How are you?" He asked Kagome.

"Fine." She answered still staring wildly into his eyes. She was angry, not only angry, but also in shock. It was a combination that made Inuyasha shake in his leather shoes. "Obviously you're doing great too. It must be the sociopath in you." Her voice was cold, almost hostile. No one had thought about how effected she was going to be when she woke up. Now they knew. Kagome did not like death. She did not want blood shed, and especially because of her.

"Well, mom always did say two steps forward and one step back. I guess in your case it was two steps forward three steps back." Inuyasha sucked in the heated air, tasting the sudden hate. He was hurt by her opinion. Didn't she realize that he had only been trying to save her? He just wanted to keep her safe, and he had done that. The only difficulty now was the consequences. Jail would have been better, he thought bitterly.

Miroku heard a voice in his head screaming to him and so he countered it outloud. "No, I do not like green eggs and ham!" He yelled obnoxiously. "Shut up!"

"Dear Lord…" Sango shifted her eyes to the outside world and felt freedom call to her. If only she could get the attention of one the officers her friends and her would be safe. Straining her neck she spotted her salvation. The horn was located directly to her left side and it was entirely in her reach. Without a second thought Sango's arm hot out from his comfortable position and banged down on the horn twice before being pulled away by Sesshomaru.

"What the hell are you doing!" He roared harshly.

"Saving my ass." She said simply with a smirk. Using her free hand she pointed to the police who were now focusing on them. From behind her she heard Kagome whisper something and Rin gasp.

"Please get out of the vehicle with your hands over your head and step away from the car! I repeat, get out of the vehicle with your hands over your head and step away from the car!"


Bad dog, bad dog. Whatcha gonna do? Watcha gonna do when they come for you...I'll tell you what you are going to do. you are going to review my story because it makes me really warm and fuzzy in side. Oh and by the way i would like to recognize all my most recent reviewers. i know that the last chapter i had was rather stressful, but those who reviewed in a polite manner were notified that Kagome really had not died, but those who had cursed at me or were rude i chose to not respond to. Well, gotta run!

Love
