CHAPTER 11 New Alliance

'Hojo?' Kagome pictured the boy she knew in Junior High. He had short brown hair and welcoming brown eyes and he was always worried about her health. This was one thing about him she couldn't help but get annoyed about, but he was sweet and mostly easy to get along with. If you could get over the constant nagging. She compared that mental picture with the guy being cuffed to his own chair right across from her. He had definitely changed a lot. His brown hair was cut short and spiked, and he had his ears pierced, one on the left and two on the right and one on his right eye brow. His brown eyes were a cold black and his handsome face was beat up. He had a bloody lip, his right eye was almost swollen shut, and he had a bruise on his left cheek. His clothes were an array of blacks and reds, and she could see a cut on his right forearm it was bleeding but didn't appear to be too deep. He smirked when he saw her and realized that his ex was sitting across from him in a police station cuffed just like him to a seat.

As soon as the cop left the room he looked to her in amusement. "Well well Kagome look at you, haven't changed much have you?" She glared at him knowing he was right she hadn't changed but she was looking at him and it looked like he'd had more problems than she did. "What'd you do this time?" he asked, he was one of the only people who knew about her past and her current job as a thief.

"Shouldn't I be asking you that?" she retorted through with taking his gilt trip. "Not very innocent anymore are you?" she smirked at the glare he gave her. "Last time I saw you, you were fussing over my health, so I guess I'd like to know where you went wrong." She smiled when she saw him fighting his restraint, the cuffs were the only thing holding him back from her. Too bad she didn't care.

"Well let's just say when I tried to mess with Naraku to get you back I got pulled in instead of killing him." He looked down at his cuffs and she watched as he pulled a bobby pin out of the wrist band on his arm then began to pick the lock.

"You did that for me?" her eyes were wide with shock, she had no idea, he nodded his head not looking up at her. "Well it looks like I can take care of myself doesn't it?" Kagome slipped her hands from her cuffs and walked over silently taking a seat next to Hojo.

"What does that mean?" He looked up and realized that she was now sitting next to him. "Cheater." He muttered and went back to work on his own set of cuffs.

"So are you buddy buddy with Naraku now?" she wanted to know, she had been forming a plan in her head since she first saw him and now him knowing Naraku helped.

"What's it to you?" he asked still working on getting the cuffs off, Kagome thought about it while forming a plan in her head, she thought through the what if's and decided it could work. On one condition.

"We can help each other." She watched him as he stopped and thought about her words, "We can kill Naraku together." she bargained.

"How do I know I am able to believe you?" he eyed her suspiciously, as if he had the right to be suspicious. She smirked at the challenge and took the pin from him, in seconds a small click was heard and Kagome unclasped the cuffs on his wrists.

"I'm in, what do you want me to do?" he said glad to be plotting against his boss and worst enemy.

"We won't be able to discuss this here but I need to get you out of here." She said "What crime did you commit this time?"

"Just got into a fight with a drunk what about you?" he smirked as she rolled her eyes.

"Stole a drunk's wallet, so I guess that means were on the same page."

"Well you must be slacking if you got caught."

"It was a dare, besides I'll be out of here in a minute and you need me to get you out so wipe that smirk off your face." But before he could they both heard the light thud of footsteps outside the door.

Kagome went back to her seat slipping her hands into her cuffs before looking up to make sure Hojo had too. The cop that had brought Kaogme in walked through the door.

"Well I guess you're off the hook thanks to your boyfriend." He grimaced as he said it and Kagome looked up at Hojo who gave her a weird look. The cop pulled her up and escorted her to the door; she glanced back at Hojo as the cop opened the door, 'Ten minutes' she mouthed to him before the cop pushed her out the door.

The cop pushed Kagome through the double door that led into the lobby area where her friends were standing waiting. Koga looked at her guilt in his eyes; she smiled at him reassuring him she wasn't mad.

The cop pushed her forward and she glared back at his smug face but the look faded and Kagome looked over to see Inuyasha glaring at him and unspoken promise in his eyes. He took her hand and pulled he away from the cop. "Let's go" he said releasing her hand and walking out. They followed Kagome walked by Sango.

"Guess who I just saw." Kagome whispered to Sango.

"Who?" Sango looked at her friend.

"Hojo!" Kagome said.

"Who?" Sango looked at her friend in disbelief.

"You heard me, Hojo, but he's not the same he works for Naraku now." Kagome explained "But we need him he's willing to help us if we bail him out."

"What!" Sango yelled "You gotta be shi."

"What are you two talking about?" Inuyasha turned on them.

"…Nothing." Sango said, but Kagome looked at him.

"We need a huge favor." Kagome pleaded.

"Like what?" Inuyasha questioned not liking the look on her face, but before she could answer him Miroku grabbed her arm and dragged her away from the group.

"Please fill me in before you tell him." Miroku said once they were a few feet away.

"I'm getting ready to tell him can't you wait?" She asked not wanting to explain three times.

"I'm in this with you Kagome tell me." He grabbed her arm again. "I am your brother after all." He smirked.

"Fine." She sighed "But you get the quick version." She stated but he only shrugged, "you remember Hojo right?" she asked.

"Your ex? The health freak?" he asked, unsure of himself.

"That's the one," she glanced at Inuyasha who seemed to be lost in thought, "well let's just say that he's in there right now,"

"In there?" Miroku pointed to the police station.

She nodded, "Anyway he looks like a gothic punker and he's working with Naraku, but he's willing to help us get to Naraku."

"What's the catch?" Miroku asked.

"We bail him out." Kagome said simply.

"There must be something else he wants that's too small, not enough to get one of Naraku's lackeys to go against him."

"He's said that the only reason he was working for Naraku is that he failed at trying to get me out, he got pulled in instead so that means he wants out just as bad as anyone." Kagome said.

"So he wants you basically." Miroku said a look of disgust on his face. "Kagome can't you see he's doing this to get to you."

"Oh well if I have to be bait to get rid of Naraku so be it now let's go I told him I'd get him out in ten minutes." Miroku sighed knowing he was losing this battle.

"Okay I'll go with you on this one but are you sure it's a good idea to bring Inuyasha in on this?"

"He's our only option, the only way to do this without ending up broke."

"Fine let's go ask him." Miroku led the way back over to Inuyasha who looked at them in understanding.

"I'll help." He said as Kagome opened her mouth to speak. She looked at him shocked but quickly recovered.

"What did you just say?" She asked not believing her ears.

"I'm a half demon…meaning I have better hearing than normal people so I heard you're entire conversation." He said as if he was explaining to a kindergartener. "But If I'm going to help you I need some info are you three in some kind of trouble?"

"You could say that." Miroku muttered and Kagome elbowed him.

"Shut up." She hissed.

"Kagome." Inuyasha took her hand making her look up at him.

"Fine but I'll have to fill you in later." He nodded and they went back into the police station.

The lady at the front desk looked at them confused "May I help you?" she asked.

"We're here to bail out Hojo Akitoki." Kagome said, the lady quickly checked for his file and pulled out some papers. She gave them the bail amount and Inuyasha paid with his father's money. Then the lady called to a cop to bring him out.

As they waited for Hojo to be brought out Koga got Kagome's attention and she turned to him.

"I'm sorry I got you into this, especially since we just met and all." He he sighed allowing his head to fall.

"It's okay, besides I've had worse happen." She smiled at him.

"You forgive me?" he asked a skeptical look on his face.

"Of course." She said reassuringly, without warning he pulled her into a bear hug and she tensed.

"Thanks Kagome." He smiled and released her.

"Anytime." She said feeling as if her personal bubble had just been popped, so instead of looking at him she turned to the double doors and to her luck she saw Hojo walk out with the same cop that brought her out.

He walked over to her and smiled his thanks, "Kagome you're the best." He said pulling her into a hug, and she felt her bubble pop again as he slipped something into her pocket, she heard a small growl behind her and pulled away from Hojo to look at Inuyasha.

"Let me guess you're the boyfriend?" Hojo said, and Inuyasha gave him a wild look as Kagome hit him. But instead of denying it he pulled her away from him and up against himself. She looked at him shocked as did everyone else but Hojo.

'What the hell is going on?' Kagome thought. "Do you have a place to stay?" she asked instead, feeling Inuyasha growl behind her at the thought of him staying at her place.

"Yeah but I have to leave have to check n with you-know-who." He winked. "I'll call you Friday." he said.

"You don't have the number." She said.

"I'll get it." he said knowing that it would only take a few moments for his master to find it.

'I don't trust him.' Inuyasha thought.

'Well no surprise there.' Said another part of his brain.

"See ya Kagome." Hojo said before walking away. Inuyasha let Kagome go as he fully realized what he had done, if Kikyo found out he'd be dead.

Kagome smiled at him and he looked away.

"Let's go home." Sango said yawning, she and Miroku went to leave though they didn't get far because of Miroku's wondering hand. "You pervert! Get away from me!" she yelled at him as he lay groaning on the floor.

Inuyasha looked at them with a weird face that made Kagome laugh. They eventually left, after helping Miroku upand calming Sango down. On the drive home they were silent only the muttering of Sango in the passenger seat was heard.

Inuyasha drove Koga home and then headed for his own house. 'Shit' he thought he had forgotten to ask Kagome about their problem and to give her a warning about Hojo.

He shrugged he could tell her tomorrow. He snuck into his house after pulling in the driveway with his headlights off. He silently went to his room before getting on his computer to check his email.
