A/N: I am aware that I haven't updated in ages…. Please don't use this as an excuse to throw stuff at me. Despite that, I haven't died.

Disclaimer: Takahashi's job is to create a story; I just do it for fun. I don't own KID, Saint Tail, or 20 Faces.

Koodori Joshuu

Ch. 7

Once set in Motion…..

"And it's show time!", a voice shouted out. Smoke was seen, and Kagura could barely see through it. Many cuss words were shouted by a man dressed in a suit and a necktie, "!#$! KID! GET BACK HERE!"

"No can do, Nakamori-kibu!"

"Watson."

And footsteps from the KID taskforce were heard chasing after the thief.

After the smoke cleared, the party resumed, more or less, until…

"ONE, TWO, THREE!" This shout caused balloons to float everywhere, filling the hall, so they once again weren't able to see anything. This time, a boy in a school uniform was ordering a taskforce, "After her! Capture Saint Tail!" And the task force chased a black clad figure riding a balloon out of a window.

By this time, all guests were sweatdropping, two thieves in the same hall, at the same night! That was just too strange. Ah well, what can go wrong will go wrong, and there is Murphy's Law, so…….

A girl squealing was heard, "It's 20 faces!"
A whole lot more squealing was heard, and chaos ensured until 20 faces managed to escape on a hot air balloon.

People were irked by now. First the Kaitou KID, then you had Saint Tail, and after that, 20 Faces just had to appear. And to top things off, Kagura still had her act to do.

So the question was, should she be fancy, or not? I mean, all other thieves were kinda flashy, so…..just maybe, to annoy Sesshomaru.

And so, the lights turned out, and it stayed off, despite the fact the people tried to light up the hall with fire. By this time, people had huge veins throbbing on their foreheads.

Kagura, with a veil over her face made her way to the noble's rooms to look for the boomerang. She found it, she'd have to check who the person was later, but as she crept out to the hallway, her chest hurt suddenly and she screamed, attracting attention.

Sesshomaru heard the scream and ran towards the noise. It sounded familiar, so who was it?

Meanwhile…..

"You know that the elders won't be happy that you three went tonight," the god spoke. "Especially since everyone's fate is decided tonight."

"You're such a spoilsport.", the goddess scolded the god, "loosen up and have some fun." A smile graced her features. "Besides, we did get back up here before anything really happened."

Despite that, the god frowned. "The course of the future is in the hands of a girl. This situation is not to be taken lightly. It would be safer to have multiple people deciding fate, but….," and he trailed off.

"No," the goddess said, putting her hand on the god's arm, "not a girl", she said with laughter in her eyes. "But a young woman who's about to show the world that she is capable of taking the future into her own hands."

"And you still say this even though the majority of us say she will die tonight?"

"What can go wrong, will." The goddess refocused her attention to what was going on.

Kagura screamed again, it felt as it someone was squeezing her heart. She heard footsteps in front of her. Then a voice.

"I'm very sorry, lady, to do this," the voice said. It sounded male. "But before I have to suck you into the windtunnel, will you do me the honor of bearing me my child?"

The question was so shocking that she stopped in mid-scream to stare.

"Wha-," she was cut off when she couldn't get enough air. What was happening to her? Kagura got a grip on herself and threw the boomerang at the source of the voice.

The pain in her chest lessened, and she was able to breathe again. Suddenly, the boomerang came flying back.

"ARGGG! Who just thre-"

Yet another voice spoke, this time it was female. "Stop this now, and turn the lights back on." She paused, "Or I will have to arrest both of you."

She knew the voice, "I'm very sorry Sango-sama", Kagura spoke, "but I still need to go back." She took the feather out of her hair, "Farewel-", and she was cut off once again.

"I am surprised that you're not dead yet, Kagura." A person, shadowed in darkness decided to reveal himself. He held a blob on something in his and, which he squeezed.

As the man squeezed the blob, Kagura felt pain again. "Ugh,…"

A/N: Writer's block through this whole chapter. Some inspiration hit when someone IMed me, and to that person, I'm grateful. And I do have valid excuses, computer crashed and died, thus losing everything on it, projects, finals, me trying to get over something, and other activities. Credit also goes to the five girls at the Boys and Girls club I volunteer at.

I have an idea what's going to go on in the next chapter, but nothing overly solid. Thank you to those who have stuck with me this far! (bows)

Kudos to those who can tell me the series where each of the thieves came from! (grins)
