Takeover
Chapter 6 The Signatures and the Savior Sesshomaru
I do not own InuYasha or Dragon Ball-Z or its characters. Thanks
Present Day Wednesday Evening- The Tashio Mansion
"The smell is still here honey" Kagome said as she sprayed the aerosol can in the air replaced the plug-ins in as they only survived for about three days. Kagome shook her head at her husband who looked at her briefly before looking at his lap top.
"If memory served me correctly you did laugh before punishing me and our daughter"
"That was a cough and it wasn't funny by the way" She said as she fluffed pillows. She looked up and glared at her husband of 8 years.
"Yeah you saying 'ha' wasn't a laugh huh?" He said smirking at her.
"Ok so that may have slipped but you including our daughter- "
"Means you missed out, admit it you wanted to be a part of this but had to impress the other women" He said rolling his eyes.
"No what I wanted was my husband to behave but that's it too much like right. I mean what prompted you to do this prank anyway, I thought you made up with InuYasha, plus Koga and Goku are your friends" She said crossing her arms and closing her eyes with a slight frown. She didn't see her husband get up until and walk towards her. She opened her eyes and was about to slip when Sesshomaru caught her by the waist.
Inches away from her face he said, "Next time if you want to be a part of the action, I'll allow it. But to answer your question, I did because InuYasha had been forging my name on the books on purpose, for items in the office that were not necessary. I caught him in a lie about said items and in InuYasha fashion he denied it ever doing anything, so he had it coming, now Koga and Goku was all Vegeta and of course the best person to ask for pranks is Miroku" He leaned in for a kiss which Kagome gladly took. Placing her arms around him neck she deepened the kiss, this never got old between them even with them married for such a long time, ten years to be exact from the day they left for college they both knew there was no one else.
Sesshomaru grabbed his wife's ass picked her up, his other company papers and other work on the table forgotten just her and this argument that he planned to win. He laid her softly against the royal blue couch he continued to kiss her moving down to her collarbone to her lovely cleavage. It seemed like he had already won the first round by just the lovemaking about to ensue. But to drive his point home…
"Wait, before we start and we will start and finish regardless of the outcome. I meant what I said Kagome despite the fact that you have lost your pranking ways our daughter has more than made up for them"
"That doesn't help this situation, nor is it the point she is very observant, wise even for her age. I accept that she loves you more but it doesn't mean she has to do everything you do"
"Ok, fair point but in my defense she is like you so much in the regard that I can't help but teach her more"
"It's alright to teach her but maybe do it in more of a constructive way, she pulled his head down, now before you stopped you were attempting to finish what you started"
Looking lustfully in his wife's eyes bending down he said, "This isn't over after we play we should talk more on this" Kagome instead kissed him slowly pulling at his shirt as he pulled at hers, grasping at his pants she was almost to the promise land until….
"Mom, Dad can I start the journal again today"
Both Kagome and Sesshomaru looked at each other then frowned, by pulling up and straightening up all evidence they quickly sat up on the couch to greet a smirking Rin.
"Wait how long were you there" Sesshomaru said look at his eldest daughter.
"Long enough to know Mom had her hand in your pants Dad." She said grinning at her at her father.
"You Brat"
"You love me"
"It depends on the day"
Kagome had to stop this little fight although it was a little entertaining. "Stop it both of you, now Rin you said you wanted to use the journal?" She asked as she crossed her legs.
"Yes just for a moment Mom before I go to bed"
"Journal? What journal…wait the one you had in high school, I thought you said you got rid of them" Sesshomaru frowning he didn't care for Kagome narrating their lives in high school. She was correct on how they were at the time, even Goku became better during his senior year but he didn't like being reminded of that part of his past.
"Well I hid it but Rin found my first copy, so no I didn't get rid of them"
"Alright but if she comes across parts"
"I know, I told her, although I somehow think she may know about them" She said as she went to the guest room to get the journal. She came back with the book and gave it to Rin.
"Now you have two hours to read this journal then you have to have to go to bed alright"
"OK," she took the book and ran to her room slamming the door. Rin opened the book back to the part where he mother was attempting to get phone numbers.
'Alright let's continue'
Tuesday Afternoon- After Detention
After a stressful Friday Kagome knew she couldn't get all of her teams' numbers from them so she went to the Principal's office and asked for them. It was a hard bargain but she was able to get them when she told the receptionist that she was working the final school project. Once she received them she called everyone and told them to meet her after detention at the library. The only problem was she was running 40 minutes late to said meeting due to her mom's car tire.
She ran up the stairs of the library to the area where they said they would meet and was surprised to only see Sango sitting there looking pissed.
"Where is everyone else?" She said looking at the empty chairs next to Sango.
"Well the red head pregnant girl-"
"Her name is Ayame and she's not pregnant, never has been"
"Ok, Ayame and Bulma were no shows, Vegeta, Sesshomaru, Koga and Goku all ended up in yet another fight which got them all kicked out. Miroku was here but two jocks remembered him and he left, Chi-Chi stayed for 10 minutes and left which just leaves me"
"Oh" Was all she could come up with as she pulled up a chair.
"So Sango, have you thought of anything the group might like?" Kagome said as she attempted to pull out her notebook for ideas.
"Oh no like and I use this name lightly Bulma said I will not do all the work in this group. As if this day wasn't bad enough now this, I am nobody's slave" She said loudly causing the librarian and the guard to come over.
"Miss this is a library if you can't be quiet then you can leave" He said bringing more attention than they needed to them in the public place.
"I'll gladly leave then" She said picking up her books and walking away. What Kagome did not expect was Sango going off the deep end with an idea. But with everything going she was pissed at this entire project to graduate, her team was turning out to be useless and she was at the edge of the cliff with everyone and this was just the second day. Kagome ran after her and as they walked outside she grabbed her arm spinning her around to meet her eyes.
"LOOK, you think this day has been hell for you, this weekend and yesterday has been hell for me. You think I asked for this group, no, instead I have been trying my best to gather a group together so that we can have a paragraph or something to turn in this Friday but no, I have to deal with immature brats minus the ones I don't speak to, who don't seem to have a care in the world about graduating. Well I care about this project and if you don't want to be here for it then go the hell home.
I'll just put all of your names on something I come up with tomorrow. But don't think for a minute that I don't understand you Sango what you go through because I like the rest of us go through the abuse everyday with no one to help, now if you'll excuse me I'm going in the library again to figure something out." And with that Kagome walked back in the library angrily. Pulling out a chair and her notebook, with a pen she started to brainstorm a bit. When she looked up she saw Sango pull up a chair across from her.
"Just to be sure it's Kagome isn't it"
"Yes" She said with authority in her voice.
"I apologize for the comment I made early, it's just I've been burned before in groups where I ended up doing all of the work. So when your cousin Miroku said that comment I wanted to slap him, I was happy that Chi-Chi spoke up instead but still, you know" She said pulling out her notebook.
"I understand but that's why he has all girl cousins to beat him up" Kagome said cracking a smile she found that Sango did the same.
"So I was thinking of two projects that would be great to showcase. A guillotine and a catapult, the guillotine for the past and we can mention the times it was used and when it was stopped like the century or something. The catapult can be used to depict the times it was used in the past and some of the times it is used now."
"Hmm, that sounds like a great idea, it would challenge us since neither of these items are easy to make"
"That's right, let's work on this" She said and for the next two hours the worked on the paper portion of the project. Kagome found that Sango was very smart and could rival her and Bulma on a good day. She started to wonder why Sango wasn't like this more often, but kept that part to herself for now.
"So do you think we'll finish on time?" Sango said breaking Kagome of her current thoughts.
"Yes we started the process now we just have to get them to sign off on this part the other parts hopefully we will all be on the same page."
"Ok but how are you going to get them to sign it"
"Another challenge but it's not impossible"
"Alright but how are you going to get them go with the ideas that came from me? I don't think they will like that the idea came from me?" She continued to shoot questions.
Kagome answered her questions "First I want to graduate, so with a plan I have it should get them to do what I want. To answer your last question, so what if it came from you they have to accept because they should have been here to help out."
They spend a little more time on the new project before leaving for the evening and Kagome felt more confident about tomorrow and the next people on her list.
Wednesday Morning
Kagome knew she just had to follow the plan and she should be fine. She would start with the easiest person to work with Goku. She sat in the parking lot looking for him when she finally spotted him, he was going up to the school after everyone else.
'I should do that more often' She thought since someone always did something to her before classes. So far she was still waiting on Tsubaki since she heard about Ayame. That witch had something good for her and of course she didn't want to be a part of it. Thinking about now she walked up to him.
"Kakarrot, I mean Goku"
The teen turned around ready to do damage to the person who called him by his first name, only to see Kagome with her hands in surrender.
"Well what is it?" He asked slightly frustrated.
"First let me apologize for calling you Kakarrot and not Goku, second I have typed up the first part of the paper and I need your signature for our group project"
"Oh yeah that, you finished the paper that's great, I'll do my best next time to help unless other things come up" He said almost like he was cheerful unless you count the last part of his statement.
"You mean Vegeta and Sesshomaru?"
"Yes" He said looking away frowning.
Kagome wanted to tell him that the fights they have are childish but didn't because today was not the day to do it even if Vegeta was her friend.
"Anyway, she said taking out the paper to sign, but stopped for a moment, Goku I need you to make a promise."
"What kind of promise" He looked at her skeptically.
"That no matter what happens you actually help out with this group, this means trying not to fight Vegeta or Sesshomaru no matter what, Ok?"
Goku put his hand under his chin to ponder not throwing the first punch on two guys who constantly talk about his guardian Gohan and him. They made his progress in therapy hard however both boys weren't as bad as Tsubaki and her crew they were the worse his parents always came up with them and for the moment he was powerless because he didn't have much back-up. But he had to graduate from school.
With that thought in mind he said, "Alright I'll try my best not to get into a fight but I want your assurance that they won't egg on any future fights especially your friend Vegeta" He placed his hand on the back of his head waiting on his response.
"I promise" She handed him the paper that he signed and both of them ran to shop hoping not to catch the late bell.
2nd Period Math-After Class
The next person on her list was Miroku since he was the next easiest person to talk to, she almost ran into Sesshomaru but stopped herself when she saw Miroku with Sesshomaru. This was good because after her talk with Miroku, Sesshomaru was one of the next people she needed to speak to for now though it looked like they finished their conversation and Miroku left down the hall then went to the left.
"I can feel you behind me Higurashi" Sesshomaru said as turned to look at her. Golden eyes clashed with blue.
Not backing down from him she said, "So do want a cookie now or something?" She said smiling at him.
"Besides I'm not looking for you yet so move out of my way" She said. Sesshomaru looked at her glaring at him, he had to admit it was cute. His annoying crush for her started in the 9th grade but he never acted upon it for two reasons. One was InuYasha as he didn't like his little brother much and he was a little jealous that he had Kagome first.
The second reason was because as much as his feelings for her were deep he also liked Kagura for the time being, then she dumped him out of the blue. In his case because of either Tsubaki or Naraku. The woman was almost like Kagome when you got to know her better, this made his feelings conflicted. Therefore, he wanted to go out with the woman who sometimes came to work with her mother but for the time being didn't have the balls to do it.
Smirking at her, he moved to the side and let her past not before saying, "I look forward to our meeting, it will be nice to meet with the poor" He really didn't mean that but it was the best he could come up with to rid the girl from his thoughts for now, he had no problem with her mother working for them actually he thought her mother was a phenomenal person for keeping up her shrine, plus taking care of her family.
Kagome stopped for a moment she had always known that was one of the reasons why Sesshoumaru hated her but to bluntly say it almost made her want to go back and punch him in the face but she instead ran after Miroku.
Kagome saw him go up the steps and went in that direction until she got to the third floor the only floor the faculity and students did not use much for some reason. The 3rd floor was spotless and clean like they wanted to use it but couldn't figure out how. She went to check the seven rooms that were not in use and found Miroku in the last room holding out of the window something near Kagura who was getting the latest gossip from some girls.
"Miroku what are you doing?" She whispered to him. She started to walk towards him and stopped when she smelled some old, mildew-y.
"Isn't obvious Kagura has it coming." Miroku slowly turned to his cousin and smiled. For the moment he removed the balloon from the window sill knowing that Kagura would not be finished gossiping yet.
"I am so happy that I'm not the cousin who is on your shit list" She said smirking at him.
"It's not why I am here though, I am here to have you sign off on the paper that is complete with our ideas by the way" She pulled out her book bag and gave the paper to Miroku.
"Now this does come with a promise Miroku"
"No, no, this paper has promise Kagome a catapult and guillotine this should work" He said lightly looking over the paperwork.
"Yes well I won't brag Sango and I did this first part together, however you have to promise me that you will help everyone out as much as possible. You can't slack this time, you have to pull your weight especially in English sections"
With a sigh he said, "Alright then I'll do my best" he said signing the paper.
"That's all I ask, now I leave you to your balloons and whatever else you plan to do." She left him and the sounds of a splash and screams could be heard she winced almost feeling sorry for the teens until she thought about it being Kagura then she didn't care that much.
With that she left now she had to convince Vegeta.
Lunch-4th Period
Kagome knew that things with Vegeta were two-fold. It always had been between them, she knew that she had to get him to sign the paper that was easy, the hard part was getting him to getting him to promise that he wouldn't bother Goku or Koga during the project for a year.
Approaching him at the lunch room table she sat down across from him. "Hello Vegeta" She said squinting her eyes.
"What. Girl. Do. You. Want" He said frowning at her, he didn't know what game she was playing and didn't like her look. Kagome pulled her book bag to the table and pulled out the paper.
"This is the paper I need you to sign it with a promise attached"
"What promise? What kind of jive B.S. is this Higurashi?"
"The kind that will help us pass our class and graduate on time" He literally growled at her but took the paper.
"Ok I'll sign the damn paper but if this happens you have to do something for me"
"What egg a car, lie to your dad, help you and Miroku with something…WHAT? She yelled the last part looking at other teens in the room look at her.
"Geez don't get your panties in a bunch Higurashi, I will let you know at a later date for now tell me about this promise you have"
"Ok you have to first promise to full be engaged in all of this Vegeta no half ass-ing like you sometimes do"
"Hey that was in the 9th grade, I did much better or I am doing much better now. But if this is the promise then- "
"No I'm not finished, you have to also not bother or get into any fights with Goku or Koga"
"I'm sorry, I didn't hear you"
"I SAID YOU HAVE TO- "
"I know what you said and it is a hard bargain to not bother that boy and his dog" He smirked at himself while Kagome just shook her head.
"Oh alright I'll do it, at least I can still bother Sesshomaru"
"Damn I should have placed him in this too"
"But you didn't now, if you are done with the mindless chatter then let's eat" He signed the paper while the ate in silence.
The next two people on her list was Sesshomaru, yes she had to go back to him and Ayame.
After 5th Period
She saw Ayame walking down the hallway she called out to her and Ayame kept walking. Annoyed at being ignored Kagome decided to piss her off.
"Hey pregnant girl" Loudly too Kagome mentally added. If that didn't get her attention she didn't know what would. It must have because she ran like the usually tornado back to her looking furious.
Kagome just smirked at her but was ready if she had to fight.
"I'm NOT PREGNANT, and when someone pointedly ignores you it usually means for you to fuck off" She said crossing her arms.
"Why didn't you come to the meeting yesterday?"
"Because I didn't feel like coming, is that a crime?"
"It is if you want to graduate" Kagome said frowning.
"You know what I don't have time for this, I have to go to class"
"Look I know that you hate this group but sometimes you just have to deal with it, I know I have too for almost a year. When I really think about it our group could be different, I mean you could be in a group that you hate more than us" She and Ayame shuddered at the thought. Deep down the both knew that was something all of them would hate with the exception of Vegeta he would run all of his group members away.
"Ok let me see the paper" She said as Kagome pulled off her book bag and handed the paper to her.
"Hmm, this paper is good did you come up with it all by yourself" She said breezing through the paper.
"No, Sango helped out this time the next time we meet we will all be involved" She said with a determined look on her face that made Ayame arch her eyebrow. Ayame signed the paper and handed it back to her.
"So are you going to be at the first meeting when I announce it"
"Yeah sure, I'll see you in detention Kagome" She said as she started to walk off but Kagome stopped her.
"And Ayame, I thought about what you said last Monday and I wanted you to know that I am like you in this hellhole, different" She said and Ayame cracked a smile. It was at that moment that Kagome could say that things changed for both of them, because no longer would they care about the students and what they said because they were different in their own way.
After Detention
Kagome meant to follow after Sesshomaru but was pushed down to the ground by Bankotsu and Kagura when she went outside towards her car.
"Look guys it's a little piggy, she's so dirty from the puddle she slipped into" Kagura smirked at Kagome but didn't expect her to get up to fight. It wouldn't have scared her if Kyokotsu wasn't right behind them with the rest of the crew.
"Kagome you remember when you bumped into us all of those times" That was Tsubaki.
"See cousin I told you we had a habit of breaking you, it's sad really that we have to put all of this work into this"
"That's right Kikyo, God I wish they would keep farm animals where they belong, however this is a Kodiak moment so pucker up" Tsubaki smiled and took pictures on her phone daring Kagome to say something. What she didn't expect was Sesshomaru to turn around to see what was going on.
"This is funny to me to see this" Sesshomaru smiled an actual smile and if you knew him well it wasn't a happy one but one filled with a little bit of darkness.
"Sesshomaru this doesn't concern you so why don't you leave and pretend like this didn't happen" said Bankotsu as he stood strong with the others.
"And what ruin the fun of this game you attempt to play with everyone else, well why not include me?" He said as he moved next to Kagome. Sesshomaru had been heading to his car around the corner from the jocks that stood before him because of some type of vandalism they would cause if he left it in the parking lot.
Most times he would leave the vehicle in the staff parking lot because of his mother's title but today he was running late. He and Vegeta usually knew to leave their cars about a block or two off because of the jokes played.
Unfortunately, Goku never seemed to learn this lesson as it would always happen to him after football and basketball games. So when he thought that Higurashi was behind him to talk he was going to make her work for his time. That was before he caught Kagura push her in the puddle from an afternoon rain while her back up Bankotsu was right with her.
Although Kagura was different toward him after school she was right in the forefront with her brother at school, it pissed him off. No today they wouldn't bother Higurashi he would pay for the consequences later.
"Because as Bankotsu said this does not concern you, when it does we will be sure to embarrass you well. Now leave before Kyokotsu makes you his victim" Naraku said as Sesshomaru smirked at the teen.
"Let the huge dick-head come at me, besides he's the only thing that keeps this group of yours together since he is the biggest, dumbest piece of shit around. But don't fault me for defending a teen girl who you have no problem forcing to take a punishment that she doesn't deserve" He said growling at them and shocking Kagome and Kagura.
"Let's go for now everyone, Sesshomaru this isn't over" Tsubaki said growling at him. She was angry that she couldn't get her full revenge on Kagome. The moment for her wanting Sesshomaru was over she wanted him to suffer. She knew there was a game coming up she would be ready with something from Kikyo.
"We'll see" Was his final response as he helped Kagome up and gathered her belongings. He knew they would go after him sometime in the future but their treatment of Kagome was unacceptable.
"Why did you help?" She asked quietly.
"I don't know maybe because they should not have made it an unfair advantage" He said as he looked at her,
"But I don't understand Sesshomaru you don't like me"
"What did you want to talk about Higurashi" He said changed the subject as the he was tired of the current conversation. Mostly because the current conversation would make him say things he didn't want to, at least not to her yet.
"Oh…well I hope the paper is still alright" She said as she looked in her book bag for the paper. It turned out it was fine barely though it seemed like the muddy water didn't travel to the rest of the books or the thin folder for that she was grateful.
"No Sesshomaru you have keep a promise"
"Hmm...go on Higurashi and I may accept or deny it" He said frowning at her. What did she expect from him, he could hold his own but this damn paper and their group may be the death of him literality.
"OK, you have to promise not to start any unnecessary fights with Goku or Koga, hmmm and maybe even Vegeta"
"No"
"Yes and you have to promise to give your all for this paper Sesshomaru no slacking off" She said while she kept the paper in her hands.
"The latter of that promise I can do but the first part I can't mostly because Koga has a smart mouth and Goku should mind his business like the sad druggie he is"
"Goku is not a druggie, you know he would be better off or back to his old cheerful self if people like you didn't make it harder for him, but it is true what they say nice guys always finish last. I think it is why he has to bad, hardcore even to combat bullies like you and Tsubaki's crew. You're a joke" She said shocking him. He had never heard Kagome be so passionate before even if it was for Goku Son.
He was all in now but not without a promise of his own, "OK let's say that I go along with this promise and I don't bother the bone heads. I want to make a promise of my own Kagome"
Look up at him, his golden eyes twinkled and it was official she was scared of the outcome. She braced herself for what he was going to say next.
"I want day with you Kagome just the two of us where in the end I get what I want from you"
"Ok and what does that entail?"
"I'll let you know all of that later but for now you have to promise that you will be a part of this, let's say this is a promise for a promise. If not, then I won't sign the paper and we will not graduate" He watched her nibble her fingers as it was a habit he knew she did when she was considering something, it was cute. He knew that in the end he would win like he always did.
It was one of the reasons why he and Vegeta were such good friends at one point they could come up with 'friendly competitions' too best each other, it was too bad he was a fucking dick-head.
"Alright I'll do it, just sign the paper and give me the details" She said giving him the paper.
"Oh no Higurashi as I stated before I will let you know" He said as he signed it.
"I bet Higurashi no one thought to counter your promise did they?" He said smirking at her. She snatched the paper from him and placed it in the book bag that had now dried.
"Goodbye Sesshomaru" She said as she ran to her car in the parking lot. She sat in her car wondering why Sesshomaru was so interested in her. She started the car and drove home still thinking about him that she decided to put Koga, Bulma and Chi-Chi off until the next day.
That's it for Chapter 6. I had to add Sesshoumaru and Kagome's part to this as it will continue to change for them as a couple. This was already 11 pages so I decided to make the last three people on Kagome's list worth wild. So stay tuned to them in the next chapter and you should start to see parts of how the regain themselves in the next chapters and 'takeover' in their own personal ways, a lot of truths and forgiveness and new friendships are up for the girls and the guys. So stay tuned…
