A/N: Hullo. Does anyone have/know of any Inuyasha fics that basically center around Sesshomarou kidnapping Kagome? I dunno why, but I find those fics to be pretty fun to read. Lol.
Kenshin: I thought you liked me?
Dove: I do. I just like Inuyasha, too.
Sano: I like Fluffers. *Horrified* DID I JUST SAY THAT??!?
Dove: Heh! How fun. ^-^
Sano: *GRUMBLE*
Dove: Has anyone else read that fic about Kenshin being an Icari? I don't remember the name.. But if you haven't read it, read it! You should be able to find it on Page 2 of the fics in Kenshin. Lesse.. What else.. Ooh! And if you haven't already, read 'WHEN THE WORLD REVOLVES AROUND YOU' by Chiki. It's really fantastic. What else can I advertise.. OOH! Read the Seyruun High Jinx trilogy by Frog and Rat! (Kaeru Shisho) It's really great. And 'The Exorcist's Closet' by the same people. It's at fiction press, though.
Kenshin: Why are you doing this again?
Dove: Because I'm to tired to write a creative author note.
Sano: I wanna write it!
Kenshin: …
Dove: Okay!
Sano: ^-^ I like author notes! I love chocolate. *Munching on chocolate-covered raisins* Yumm.. HEY! *Ends up being chased around by a rabid squirrel.
Dove: *Laughing hysterically and recording everything.*
Kenshin: Oro.. Oh yeah, and she still doesn't own us! She also doesn't own that song that Kaoru sang a long time ago. She forgot to say that. ^-^

Chapter Thirteen
'The Walking Dead', Battousai's personal nickname for any person who crossed him. He readied his swords.
A collective gulps went through the remaining eight people of the group. Guns or no, Battousai was mad and their official grim reaper. It was obvious in his feline eyes.
His strikes were swift. The few bullets fired flew harmlessly through empty air. Blood sprayed the walls, reminding him of an early spring shower. Sano stayed back, he didn't want to be mistaken for an enemy.
Battousai was angry. Calling it anything less would be an underestimation. As it was, 'Angry' was a pretty hefty understatement.
"You KNEW that the Jupon Gattana was planning a strike? AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME?" He growled.
Hiko flinched a little. He was powerful, but no match for a fully armed, royally ticked off shadow assassin.
"Well, you see, Battousai, we didn't tell you because we needed them to take her. We need to find their base of operations, or at least one of their warehouses! That way we can take it out and eliminate a part of our enemy's forces." Battousai's eyes seemed to glow from under his fringe of red bangs.
"So you put her in danger-"
"I assure you, Battousai, she is perfectly safe." At the skeptical look he got, he added, "We had Megumi add a few extras. She inserted a powerful tracking device into the base of her neck, a special listening device behind her ear, and a relatively clear visual device just underneath her right eye. We can see her and hear and we know where she is at all times. So, in other words, she is perfectly safe." Battousai just glared at him. Hiko forced a smile.
"Where is she." He'd gone back to his old habit of almost-asking-a-question. He was angry. Battousai understood what they were trying to do - but why were they putting Kaoru in so much danger?
"Well now I don't want you barging-"
"WHERE is she, Hiko? I owe you nothing, and I can kill you right now just as easily as I could kill any other moron. Answer me."
Hiko half-smiled.. It came out as more of a grimace.
"Remember what I said, Battousai? About if she comes between you and your job? Well, I can safely say-"
"You know what, Hiko?" He felt a surge of anger going through him. She was HIS, not Hiko's. The ludicrous man sitting before him had no right to use her in such a way without his permission. And he was sick of it. Everyone preyed on Kaoru. She was so fragile..
And she was his.
No one else's.
HIS.
Didn't Hiko know what Shishio would do to her? Battousai did. And he would NOT let him.
"I don't care WHAT you feel safe to say. I care about a better Tokyo. Yes, getting rid of Shishio will probably bring this about faster. However, I also care about this girl. Yes, I will admit it. And right now she means more to me than Tokyo OR you. So tell me where she is RIGHT now, or I will kill you and find out myself."
Hiko was in shock. Battousai had never spoken to him in such a manner. Yet his voice was very, very cold. He seemed to consider him an enemy. His eyes held a cold, calculating look. He seemed ready to do a Battou-Jutsu of words. It was almost amusing to think about.
"Well, Battousai, how about we compromise?" Battousai glared at him steadily, not indicating whether he was willing to accept the proposal or skewer his boss. "Lets watch, and see how your friend is doing, before we go racing to heroics?"
He looked at him for a moment longer, before slowly nodded his consent.
"Alright. Let's go." He followed Hiko to a small door that seemed to lead into a storage room. Once the door was open, Battousai saw a rather large and light room laid out before him.
The cotton was a grayish-white and the walls matched. Focused along an entire wall was a huge TV screen, and small speakers. He raised an eyebrow, taking in the room in an almost disinterested fashion as he took a seat on one of the large, soft armchairs.
It didn't look like they were about to watch a kidnapped girl interact with her kidnappers, It actually looked more like they were about to watch an action movie or something. He wouldn't have been surprised in the slightest if Hiko suddenly pulled out a bucket of popcorn.
The screen flicked on with an ominous noise, and Battousai's eyes riveted on the scene before him.
**
Kaoru glared at the two men across from her. Her father and Shishio were riding in a limo of some sort, she was riding in the back of a refitted van. There were two guards, and plenty of guns. Each guard had two guns, semi-automatics, in each hand.
She was not tied up or anything - obviously she wasn't expected to try anything stupid like trying to overpower two heavily armed guards. Not that she could or would.. But still.
She was plenty mad. Just the fact that she'd been taken against her will boiled her blood. She was not in any way a happy girl. And how did she deal with this?
By being annoying as humanly possible.
She talked about anime.
"And, you see, I really did love Inuyasha and I was so mad when they took him off the very first night I'd get to see him in a month! I mean, who wants to see 'space ghost' or 'captain planet' in the place of that incredible show. I mean, the Shikon No Tama was like totally not even close to being complete! And I really wanted to see Inuyasha go full Youkai. I mean, if he could kick so much butt as a Hanyou, it's almost hard to imagine him being able to kick MORE butt, and I never even got to meet Sesshomarou. I don't know what his voice sounds like or-"
"WOULD YOU SHUT THE-" A honking horn blared for a moment, "UP! We don't care! And we're armed! And unless you shut up we're gonna start shooting, starting with the kneecaps!"
Kaoru started to hum the 'I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves' classic cheerfully.
**
"Where are they taking her?"
"If I knew THAT Battousai, she'd already be rescued." Hiko growled.
"Why don't you just get her out and shadow them back when they run away tail-between-legs?"
"Because that is NOT the plan. Like I said, if they actually start to hurt her I'll get her out, okay? But right now that stupid song is GRATING on my NERVES."
"I don't care." Battousai was listening carefully to the humming. Something was weird - she was humming differently. Pausing, adding something, starting again. He listened very, very closely.
::I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves,
Everybody's nerves,
EVERYBODY'S nerves.
I know a song that gets on everybody's nerves.
And this is how it goes.
I know you're listening,
Megumi told me,
I'm okay,
They won't hurt me,
They want to get to you Battousai.
I know a song..::
How did she know to ask Megumi? Perhaps she did know a thing or two. Clever girl, they'd be so busy blocking out her humming that they wouldn't be listening to it.
"Alright. They aren't going to hurt her."
"How do you know that, Battousai, or is there a talent you'd like to share with me?"
"Megumi told her about your nifty new improvements. And she knows what they want - I hope. If they hurt her, I am going to kill Koshijirou and then I am going after Shishio. I don't care what you want or what you order. Clear?"
"Yes." Hiko had a secretive smile. Had Battousai noticed it, he might have wondered whether or not Hiko had been HOPING for him to say that.
**
The van stopped, finally. She was 'escorted' out. Shishio and her father waited for her. It was funny, how she couldn't help but call him her father as pure as her hatred for him was.
Everything seemed sort of ominous. How strange. Shishio was looking at her funny.
"Couldn't I just..?" Kaoru stared at them in confusion. Koshijirou stared at her almost loathingly for a moment.
"Just don't kill her." Was all he said before he walked off. Kaoru felt a wave of terror hit her. Shishio was going to do something to her. She didn't know what, but she really wasn't interested in finding out. She was between the two guards. It was them, her, and Shishio. She tensed imperceptibly.
Her fists lashed out in the classic 'hit the guys in the nose as hard as possible at the same time and then run for it' move. And it worked. Both of them dropped like bags of potatoes. It would have been funny to her, had she not spun on her heel and taken off the instant that her fists connected.
Shishio was in front of her in an instant. Immediately, Kaoru tried to stop all forward motion and go the other way. Unfortunately, not only did karma have completely different ideas, but gravity did as well. She ran straight into his arms.
He had a very powerful grip for such a thin figure. Of course, so did Battousai, as she remembered.
He closed his arms roughly around her shoulders, squeezing tight enough to cause her breath to catch in her throat. She gave a tiny gasp of pain, that was all she could manage.
"I'm so much faster than you, Miss Kamiya." He informed her pleasantly. He didn't loosen his grip around her shoulders, even when she attempted to hit him, to knock him off. He just moved his grip down a little bit, so that her arms were pinned.
The only option left to her was punishing his shins viciously with her feet, and she did so with a vengeance. He didn't seem to notice.
His arms were really hot, almost burning, as she noticed. She felt sweat beading her forehead as she finally ran out of energy to fight him. She was completely trapped. She sighed, hating the feeling of weakness. She put as much HATE as she could into that one sound.
Shishio just smiled.
"I really don't care what you think about me." He informed her with an amused tone.
"Let..go!" She gasped. He just laughed.
Kaoru's head got light. Pain numbed her thoughts. And then she blacked out.
**
"He's hurting her!"
"Just touching her doesn't constitute 'hurting' her." They watched as the screen drooped. Obviously Kaoru had passed out.
"Oh REALLY?" Battousai growled.
"He hasn't ACTUALLY done anything yet. Stay." Battousai sighed and did as ordered. Regretting as he sat down. He KNEW something was going to happen to her. Shishio was an evil man. And he was not evil for perhaps some revenge, like being burned alive. He used that as an excuse, but it wasn't the real reason. He liked people's pain. He liked to see people cry, to hear their cries of pain. Especially women, women with strength and presence. He liked to shatter their spirit. And Kaoru had a lot of spirit.
**
Kaoru woke up to a feeling of constriction. There was no other way to put it. She opened her eyes and saw that she was, in fact, bound. Her arms were chained to a wall. But that was it and did nothing to explain why she felt so trapped.
She figured that it was probably just an effect of knowing that she was a prisoner.
After a few minutes of talking to herself about the joys of breathing, she heard a door opening. She looked up and saw Shishio.
"Let me out-" He hit her. It was a complete shock, so unexpected that it momentarily stunned her.
"No talking." He hissed.
"I don't listen-" He hit her again, and this time she tasted blood. Her eyes narrowed. "I'm NOT going to be quiet." Again, he backhanded her.
"I said no talking."
"Three blind mice, three blind mice." She sang defiantly. He struck her once more, seeming to enjoy the momentary pain that flitted across her features.
But Kaoru wasn't going to be silenced. He was going to hit her for talking? Fine, she'd just keep talking. He wanted her to be quiet. And she didn't like him.
Kaoru had a sudden whim to have Fluffers. The look on Shishio's face would have been totally priceless.
"You know what, I don't like cotton. I'm allergic to certain types. Isn't it fun?" This time he made a fist. Kaoru's head rebounded off of the stone wall she suddenly discovered behind her. Stars danced in front of her eyes for a moment. It hurt. A little. Just some. Naw, she was lying to herself. It hurt like.. Well.. Actually, she couldn't describe what it hurt like. But she was sure that it was going to leave a bruise. Blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.
She stayed silent now. His slapping her had been pretty funny, but he had a left jab capable of taking down an African Elephant at full charge.
She saw a glimmer out of the corner of her eye. She turned her head back. Her eyes grew large at the sight of a knife.
"Lets have a little fun, Kaoru, shall we?"
A/N: I'm sorry it took me so long. I've been really tired and kinda busy. I'm sure y'all will be very happy to know that I typed this entire chapter on a laptop worth 2,ooo dollars. Fun, neh?
Kenshin: I'm tired.
