Angels

Chapter 5.

Sesshomaru sighed for the umpteenth time during the last five minutes, his lips forming a thin line. Finally, breaking the silence, he spoke: "And who was the older man? Were you able to at least figure out his name?" He asked his younger brother, his eyes still on the information that laid out on the steel table.

"No" InuYasha sighed before continuing, "but I know that SKR respects him greatly. He seemed important. Maybe he's a dad? Or grandfather? An uncle perhaps?" His gaze shifted from his older brother to his friend; waiting for their reaction.

"But other facts and information show that Sangos' family was killed. And Rin has been as orphan since age six when her parents died." Miroku pitched in, looking down at his folded hands.

"How did their families die?" InuYasha asked, truly curious. Miroku reached for Sangos' file, licking his index and thumb finger, he flipped through her information papers before answering his friend's question. "Sango Hirikotsu's parents were both in the army and were ambushed during the night at their army base." His brows slanted downwards as he mouthed the words only to himself, continuing to read about this intriguing woman.

"How about Rin?" InuYasha asked staring at Miroku's bowed head.

"Huh? Oh yes, Rin Tainaka." Miroku gently laid Sangos' file down and picked up Rins'. Scanning her information her spoke: "Her father died from a wolf attack in the village that she grew up in.. In the mountains..?" Miroku frowned, skimming over the words before getting to the information about Rin's mother. "Her mom died in the huge fire of 93'. That's when she moved out here." He finished swallowing the lump that had formed in his throat.

"With who?" Sesshomaru asked

"Not sure, orphanage maybe. It doesn't say on here." Miroku flipped through some more papers shaking his head gently. "Nope, nothing about who she lived with."

"Alright, we need that information. Inu-" Sesshomaru was cut off.

"Already on it." InuYasha mumbled, cracking his bubble gum loudly.

"Okay, so both Rin's and Sango's fathers are cut out." Sesshomaru stood from his chair and moved to the large white bored with their extra notes. Turning, he stared across the room at the opposite black bored with the pictures and facts about the targets. He then picked up a red erasable marker writing down Sango's Father's name and Rin's father's name before crossing them both out.

Miroku cocked an eyebrow, giving his leader a quizzical stare.

Sesshomaru turned to face his group before speaking. "They're off the list. Who else?"

"Kagomes' dad then?" InuYasha pushed clicking at his computer.

"Kagome's father passed away in a car accident when she was younger, Inu', you know this." Miroku murmured.

"Her grandfather then?" InuYasha spared a quick second to glare at his know it all friend.

"Maybe." Sesshomaru interjected, silencing anymore comments. He turned back to the bored, writing down Kagome's grandfather's name. "Do Rin and Sango have grandparents alive?" Miroku shook his head before a clueless InuYasha could pitch in. "Alright then we need to have a back ground check on Kagome's grandpa and see if there's any friends they have that might be connected to this man." He pointed to the opposite bored, his eyes on the elder from the Coffee/Tea shop. "In fact, scratch that, look up all the men in their lives. I want pictures, I want addresses, I even want down to their favorite TV show. Every single person that is of male sex, I want information on. Are we clear?"

"Got it." InuYasha spoke staring at his computer screen.

"Crystal Sess'. So is that our next step?" Miroku asked his attention on his leader.

"Mainly for Inu and I, yes." Sesshomaru stared, giving a cocky grin to his friend.

"Then.. What do I do?" Miroku asked looking from older brother to younger one.

"You'll be up close and personal." InuYasha interjected, giving Miroku a sly grin.

"Your job is Sango. Permanently. And the men in her life; we need to know about this old man and his connection with them."
