Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha
Ovetime
Chapter 14
"What is this?" Naraku eyed Inuyasha dangerously, glancing to the papers he just handed him and then back to Inuyasha.
"It's the papers you asked for, duh."
"But I asked Kagome to organize them," Naraku replied, a bit too quickly.
Kagura rolled her eyes outside the door. "What a dope..." she muttered.
"She did," Inuyasha said evenly.
"Then why didn't she come and give them to me?"
"She can't right now." He narrowed his eyes.
"Why not?" Naraku pressed, and unfolded his hands to slam them palms down on the desk. Inuyasha didn't even flinch.
"Because she's very sick right now, and couldn't make it to work today. You got that?"
"You're just mad because i stole Kikyo from you?" Naraku said in a very immature baby voice. Inuyasha was confused by the quick change of topic. 'Where did that come from?'
"Actually, I don't really—"
"You are so upset about it, it's not even showing!" Naraku stood up and pointed a finger across the desk at him. "Look at you, you're furious!"
Inuyasha stared blankly at him.
"You are so angry because I lied to Kikyo for years and years about you until she finally gave you up. I even said I saw you with another woman once and reminded her every single day about how much you really didn't love her!" Naraku had to catch his breath after his outburst.
Inuyasha's eyes widened and he clenched his fists with rage. "You pansy ass bastard!"
"Ha-ha!" His boss laughed vilely. "Everything you get in life Inuyasha, I can get too, no matter how hard you work for it!" He leaned across to further make his point. "Everything." Naraku finished through his teeth.
Inuyasha put a hand to his chin and calmly looked away in thought. "Oh, alright." With the flip of a switch, he looked to Naraku with murder in his eyes. Naraku immediately regretted his words but it was too late. Inuyasha had jumped like a frog over the desk and screamed. "Die bitch" so loud it caused Kagura to come running in, alarmed by the commotion. She entered to the sight of Inuyasha strangling Naraku, waving her boss' head around as if it were some toy.
"H-help me..Kagura...p-please..." Naraku choked out.
After fully registering what was happening she turned to Inuyasha and in the most unconvincing tone, holding no emotion whatsoever said: "Please...stop." She waited a moment, hoping Naraku would just die already, before turning and walking out of the room. "I'll go get help," she calmly said on her way out.
By the time Kagura re-entered the room the tables had turned and Inuyasha was being strangled by Naraku. At the sight of who Kagura brought in with her, the two backed off and went silent for a second. Inuyasha growled and Naraku winced.
Kagura bowed slightly as the owner of the Sportsmart chain in all of Asia walked proudly inside the office.
"Nice to see you Sesshomaru-sama," Naraku said cooly, straightening his collar.
"Brother." Inuyasha nodded in acknowledgement of his presence and Sesshomaru did the same back.
"Um, have a seat." Naraku motioned towards the empty chair in front of his desk. Sesshomaru walked over to it calmly as two men in black suits rushed through the door and hurried in front of him. One sprayed the seat, and one wiped it off and they finished right when Sesshomaru reached the chair. The bowed out and left while Sesshomaru sat down.
"So..." he threaded his fingers together and put them on Naraku's desk but just before they touched the surface a quick hand with a cloth on it wiped that part of the desk clean. Naraku ignored it. "I hear you've been causing some upset within the company. Do you have anything to say for yourself or should I just force it out of you?" Sesshomaru began his interrogation.
Inuyasha and Naraku stared each other down one last time before Inuyasha up and left the room. "Stupid, prick..." he grumbled pushing past the two tall black men in black suits that stood on both sides of the door. Clearly with Seeshomaru.
"I apologize Sesshomaru-sama, on behalf of Kagura and myself I—"
"Silence, there is no need to be apologizing for Kagura. There is rarely anything that she can't handle so I know that when she calls me it's urgent." Shesshomaru's face hardened. "I'm not going to tell you again Naraku, if I hear of any other events taking place as childish as what foolery just went on between you and my brother..." He paused for effect, walking over towards the door, "I will make sure your position here is terminated."
The door swung open from the outside and Sesshomaru stepped out. Kagura was outside waiting for him. They stood across from each other on separate sides of the hall.
"Thank-you, Sesshomaru-sama." She half smiled. He nodded, turned away and walked outside with six men in black suits walking two-by-two behind him. Their dark skin glistened under the florescent lighting. Kagura walked away feeling stupid. "Thank you Sesshomaru-sama!" She mimicked herself in a high voice. "That was professional..."
Back in Naraku's office the boss was fuming. If anyone messed this job up for him he would make their life a living hell. He clenched his fists against the desk. "Damn you Sesshomaru..." He said quietly at first, then got louder. "Damn y—"
"Hey, it rhymes." Kagura noted, leaning against the door frame. Naraku stiffened. "'You' and 'Sesshomaru' rhyme." She walked over to him to place a coffee on his desk. Naraku looked very angry, and by the way he was looking at her, he wanted her to know it.
"Okay then." Kagura raised her eyebrows, turning on her heels."I'll go get some for myself." She casually walked out of the room leaving a pissed off manager behind. As she was walking she heard a loud rumble and looked outside the big window at the end of the hall to see Sesshomaru's private jet soar up into the air.
"Damn," Kouga shook his head appearing beside her. "That's one nice ride." He turned and continued down the hall. Kagura shrugged and resumed her quest for a nice hot cup of coffee, just what she needed to wash down the sweet taste of her small victory.
