Disclaimer: As much as I'd like to I do not own Inuyasha or any other character of Rumiko Takahashi.

Author's Note: Wow…. It's been a long time since I updated. I'm really sorry to all my reviewers! I kind of went blank on what to write next. Anyway here is the next chapter. Hopefully my next update won't be take as long as this to update.

Something is wrong with my computer because I've been checking out my profile and something keeps getting updated. That really irritates me and I'm trying to get it fixed. Sorry everyone if you had received false updates.

"Ow dammit you stupid monk! Watch where the hell you poke that thing!" A young man sat angrily in a large room. His silver hair seemed to fade into the white wall. Silver equipment was scattered around the room and all the tools that could be found in a hospital were in that room.

"Oh I am so sorry Inuyasha. I didn't know you were so sensitive to such tiny things." A dark haired man continued examining the wounds that the other man, Inuyasha had. He smiled when Inuyasha yelped as he had poked the scalpel around the largest gash on his body. He clucked in disapproval and stared at Inuyasha.

"What now?" Inuyasha folded his arms and glowered at him.

"I need you to take off your shirt."

"What!"

"You shouldn't play with guns anymore Inuyasha. They are making you deaf. I said 'Take off your shirt.'"

"You better not do anything weird Miroku." Inuyasha muttered as he struggled out of his shirt. He tossed the ripped remains of it against the wall.

Miroku's voice came out flat. "Oh yes Inuyasha. You are so incredibly hot. I want you so bad. Oh baby oh baby." He rolled his eyes and voice came out normal. "Oh please Inuyasha. I need to give you a CAT scan."

"A what!"

"A CAT scan. Computer Axial Tomography scan? You know, to exam the body with X-rays?" Miroku said helpfully as he began typing into the computer.

"I know what a CAT scan is since I've been taking one every single freakin' month. Why the hell do I need one now? I'm a half demon! And when did you get that thing?"

"I just bought Inuyasha because; this time when you came back your wounds didn't heal properly as usual." Sesshoumaru had come in unnoticed by either. Now he stood by the door and looked at both of them.

"What do you mean Sesshoumaru?" Inuyasha asked sourly.

Sesshoumaru's eyes were grim when he spoke. "Usually on the full moons, if you turn to a full demon, whatever wounds you've had or may have received would be healed."

"And?"

Miroku threw his hands in the air. "For god's sake Inuyasha. When you came back last night I had to literally carry you in. You had a bleeding hole in your stomach. This has never happened before Inuyasha."

Sesshoumaru continued as if he wasn't interrupted. "Inuyasha , you need to tell me exactly what happened last night."

"I told you already." Inuyasha yelled, "Dammit leave me alone!" Inuyasha got off the bench and stalked past Sesshoumaru out the door.

Miroku stared at Inuyasha's retreating back. "He's hiding something."

"You think? He'll tell me sooner or later." Sesshoumaru said sardonically. "It doesn't matter. We may have a lead right now."

Miroku looked up quickly. "What do you mean by that?"

"What I mean is," Sesshoumaru held up a newspaper. "Inuyasha wasn't the only one that was there last night and he isn't the only one on national news."

-oo-

"What!"

Kagome grabbed the newspapers from Sango and stared at the headings. Her eyes scanned down the papers as she read out loud.

" 'Investigators believe that the murders are by the same person…blah blah… however as the investigation continues, police have reason to suspect another person was involved.' " Kagome looked at Sango disbelievingly.

"Keep reading." Sango's voice came out harsh.

" 'They have reason to believe that this new suspect has now taken part of the grisly slaughtering. Evidence shown from the surveillance cameras, that the suspect did use a gun. The police are now looking into the case. Rewards will soon be posted.' " Kagome looked at Sango and tried to shrug.

"Look Sango, it could have been worse."

Sango laughed hollowly. "Worse? Look at this. There is now a website posted for your head. Not only does the government want you, now the underground wants you too. They apparently believe that you killed the infamous Kagenomaru and Juromaru whom are which very important. They owed a lot of money to others and now that they're dead no one is paying the bill. Besides that, the night you killed them, they were carrying valuable information."

"My heart weeps for them." Kagome said cynically. "Do they know who I am?"

Sango sighed. "No, thank god. They got your height, and skin and hair color. That won't do any good for them. Waste of taxpayers' money to start investigating on that."

Kagome sank into a chair and held her hands to her head. "Shit. That doesn't mean anything. They still can get more leads. What type of caliber I use, which cartridges I use…"

Sango's voice cut in as she tried to comfort Kagome. "You use what the government uses. The derringer that you love using practically screams FBI. That should throw them off. Besides that, it'll only a matter of time before some anonymous person hacks their way in and the government loses the info." Sango grinned at Kagome who smiled back wearily. Sango knew tricks that would have had her in jail with the key thrown away forever. She also had numerous ways of keeping her records clean and leaving no tracks behind.

"Besides that," Sango continued, "you eliminated the bodies right?"

"Not a trace left."

"Then lay low for now. Don't go out on any more hunting expeditions. We have enough money for the time being."

Kagome stood up and grabbed a black duffel bag and left the room. Sango didn't ask where she was going. Obviously Kagome was going to blow off some steam. The computer beeped and Sango looked at the screen. A new bidder had come on to the screen. Sango's jaw tightened when she saw the name. Sesshoumaru.

-oo-

Kagome punched the bag viciously. The dull throb in her arm where she had been bittengrew as her punches hit the bag. She had always been careful, why did this happen now? The chain groaned as she threw another punch at it. At least no one would ever know who it was in the camera. Kagome's special "skill" had made sure of that. She sighed and picked up her towel and wiped her face. She nodded to clerk as she headed out of the gym on home.

As she began walking home, she began to realize something wasn't right. Her steps echoed down the dark street as she moved quickly. A sudden movement made her pause for a moment and walk again more slowly. The steps behind grew slower. Kagome bent down at a parked car's mirror as she pretended to preen herself. So someone was following her.

Adrenaline kicked up in Kagome as she quickened her steps and abruptly took a sharp turn into the alley. This was her territory and she held the cards. She knew this area better than anyone and knew where all the hellholes were in the neighborhood. The stalker was beginning to breathe loud and harsh sounds as he began to wind down. Kagome smiled again and jumped over a tall fence. Fluent cursing followed her as the stalker struggled to get over. Kagome turned again and this time was nearly out on the open street where there were more people walking about. She casually scanned the area. This was bad. No one was in the neighborhood right now. Kagome took a step out and froze at an all too familiar click. She bit her lip when she felt the muzzle of a gun shove into her back.

"Don't move unless you want a nice government attended funeral. I've been looking all over for you bitch."

A/N: I told you I went blank. I'm going to try to make my next chapters more interesting. I think my ideas might be too bland. My next chapter will definitely have more action to it. Anyway I know this part seems unnecessary but that would just be rude to the people who actually took the time to review my story. Thank you very much to my reviewers. I really appreciate the support. Honest truth, I was about to give up but now I'm going to finish the story. My next update is coming soon!

Do you think my stories should continue to have the same type of...action as in my first chapter? I don't want it to become just a boring no plot action story but i dont want it to be dull either.
