Angels

Chapter 9.

Turing into their driveway, Kagome studied the house closely. Something wasn't right.

She stepped out of her car, rushing to the front door. Opening the door, she was greeted with only one light on –from the kitchen- and hushed voices. The house was thick with tension, paranoia, anger and something else… Fear?

"Rin, Sango?" She called out, leaving her things on the couch she slowly made her way to the bright room. "Guys? What's up?"

Sango wasted no time. "Someone was in our house."

"Excuse me?" Kagome settled herself on a high stool next to Rin –whose fists were tightly clenched- eyes wide watching Sango from across their island.

"We found things missing. Someone was in this house- without our permission and-"

"And they went through my DAMN UNDERWEAR DRAWER. Straight into my room and made a bee line right to my fucking panties drawer and took my box. I MEAN WHAT KIND OF SICK FUCK DOES THAT?!" Rin pushed from the island, stomping to the sink. Rarely did anyone ever see Rin loose her temper. And when she lost it, it was hard for her to gain control again. Kagome swallowed, watching her young friends' eyes cloud over with un-shed tears.

"Rin-" But again Sango was cut off.

"How dirty and LOW can you get? Why were they there HUH?! WHY THAT?! They just thought 'hey lets' be sick freaks and go through a woman's' underwear drawer. And HEY! Maybe we can fuck with her mind and take all her stuff from her family. The ONLY thing she has to remember them. Yeah let's just rip her heart out.' Real fucking funny." She stepped away from the sink, eyes turned to slits, tears running down her flushed cheeks, she moved to the back kitchen door heading to the small shed in the backyard.

"Rin- wait." Kagome moved to the unclosed back door before turning to Sango who had been silent through Rin's tarried. "What just happened?"

"She's upset, Kagome. They took the box. The whole thing. Left nothing behind. And Rin wants revenge." They both flinched as Rin slammed the shed door. "She found some clues and is working with them- won't even let me help." Sango sighed looking towards the backyard. "She's hurt Kags' they took the important things. The only things."

"Rin…- Wait 'they?'" Kagome turned back to the shed, eyes filled with hurt for her friend.

"Yup. Two different colored hair; some stains."

"Did they go through-"

"Yup. Yours, mine, hers. Everything."

"What did they want?"

"Information?"

"What did they take from you?" Kagome asked, looking back at Sango.

"They took my small palm pilot. We're not sure what they took for you, though." Sango snapped her head towards Kagome who was already rushing up the stairs.

^*^

He pushed away the blueprints. Running a hand lazily down his face. "Fuck."

"Miroku, man, what are you so worried about? We got what we were looking for." InuYasha offered, tipping his chair back slightly, jugging down a bottle of sprite.

They were back at their "house" or apartment. Looking over the things they had taken from the home of the three women.

"No, we didn't." Miroku dropped into a chair opposite his friend, eyes closed. "No we didn't. Dammit."

"What did we forget?"

"Sweat and finger prints." Sesshomaru offered. His mind still on the simple pale green room he had rummaged through.

"What?"

"We've lost out touch, Inu'man." Miroku cleared up, sighing. "We left hints and they'll look."

"Yes, they will." Sesshomaru offered. A large queen sized bed, white soft carpet, pictures. Pictures of animals, dresses, laughs, smiles, kisses, hugs, parties, friends. Guy friends. The thought made Sesshomaru frown. She can have friends can't she? Come on get a hold of yourself. She can have friends. Right. Just not guy friends that rub on her like that guy in that picture. He growled getting the attention of his two friends.

"Something wrong Sess'?" InuYasha asked. Watching his brother.

"Frustrated, is all." Sess' cleared his throat, banishing any more thoughts of the innocent Rin.

"Alrighty then. So they have our prints. How good can three women be?" Inu' asked, releasing a low belch.

"Inu' honestly you're a pig." Miroku groaned, moving to the refrigerator.

"Ah, thank you my friend. All in a hard days work." InuYasha grinned, rocking his chair gently.

Sesshomaru exhaled lowly heading out of the kitchen. "I'm going to take a shower. Let me know if you guys have ideas on what should be done about Rins' and the other twos' things." He headed for the bathroom.

"Rin?" Miroku looked at the retreating from before looking at Inu'

"We're on first name bases now?"

"I guess so." InuYasha looked down at the male shoebox, silver palm pilot, and small phonebook. Brows frowned. "I guess so."
