Chapter [4]
Pain

Thanks again for all of the reviews!

Plot is supposed to move fast, its like a prelude to war.
Kayle Tolken (C) - Known Graycn in Prekindergarden. Psychologist, mental therapist, Italian Mob owner. Prizes Kagome as child, Very, "Hands on."

Graycn stalked the city roofs at late night. It was almost One AM, almost time for them to show. He didn't know how far
he could trust the mob only that they could be. It was his Kindergarden best friend, but friends are decieving.
"Graycn, long time no see." A voice from behind.
"Kayle?" Graycn asked a burst of security flooding through his veins.
Kayle, an average height blacked haired man stepped out from the shadows followed by two giant men. Graycn's normally buffed
figure was thinner and paler than normal.
"Graycn, why haven't you been eating? What's he done to you?" Kayle asked. Being a phsyciatrist, and a chain gang leader, he could
spot mental weaknesses so when the wars broke out between gangs, he could have the upper advantage.

"He took Kagome... I don't know what he's going to do to her...," Graycn whispered. He could feel the tears boiling up behind his eyes.
Kayle waved his hang behind himself to the two men and they turned and left. Having a long lasting parental bond on Kagome, Kayle's temper raged at
the thought of Sesshomaru taking her for his own or for any other reason. "We'll get her back." Kayle whispered, hugging Graycn.

"Why is your person so slovenly, my friend?" He said pushing Graycn away by his shoulders. Graycn was constantly sniffing, and his eyes were veined red.
"We start tomorrow morning." Graycn said pulling away. He turned and walked off the building, leaving Kayle to stand in the dimly lit, thick smog.

...

Sesshomaru growled fiercely, he pulled Damean out of the tub by his hair, and slung him across the room. "Sorry excuse." He looked back at her bloody
body. He advanced onto Damean, and swung punching him directly into his temple. Damean fell onto the ground. Sesshomaru took his head and twisted it until a sickening
crack echoed in the room. Damean slumped over onto the floor with his head and neck un proportionally twisted out of place.

He wiped his hands on his pants and rolled up the sleeves to his shirt. He picked her up and placed her on the counter. He walked back to the tub, and turned on the water
to a satisfying temperature. He pplaced her back into it and started to wash the dried blood off of her. He ignored every though corrupt by perversion as he
washed around her areas. He knew it unright to take advantage of her as she was passed out. He then proceeded to take her out, dry her off, and dress her in a white, cotton night gown, and placed her in bed beside himself.

There was a knock on Kagome's door it was at least five in the morning. She let out a disgruntled moan and rolled over towards sesshomaru.
He sat up slowly glancing at the clock. He then looked over to the cameras, no one - servant - was out at this hour. And no one could be trusted.
He swiftly and firmly opened the door to his nightstand being careful as to not make any sound.
"Sessh-," She started. In a second he was by her side with a hand over her mouth.
"Not a sound," He whispered in her ear. Knowing the clumsy aura she normally carried on her shoulders, he couldn't risk the thudding of her
feet against the hard wood floors so he picked her up, and in seconds he was at the closet. More banging errupted from the oak door.
"Whatever happens do not come out of this closet until I come for you."
"I know your in there Sesshomaru!" Someone yelled from the other side. The knob started to shake.
From the pit of his stomach erupting up through his lungs and creating a knot in his throat fear contained him. He grabbed her arms and mashed
his lips against hers.
"Promise Me!" He hissed. She nodded her head with wide, child like eyes. He pushed her back behind a rack of clothes, and into a pile of towels.
He prepared the gun and cocked the trigger, getting up slowly and walked out closing the door quitely behind himself. Adrenaline rushed through her body.
She touched her lips where they tingled.

...

He shut the closet door and locked it placing the key in the pocket of his shorts.
"Who is it?" He growled.
"Jamison." They shouted back.
"What do you want." Sesshomaru replied.
"Your head on my mantel.
"I understand you have another girl in there with you. One that should do just fine in bed. I heard she's innocent." Jamison
said chuckling.
Anger peirced his bright green eyes and they glowed to honey black. But only through his rage did he contain his voice.
"That is my business and mine alone," Sesshomaru spoke through gritted teeth. He threw open the door and found Jamison on the other side.
"I'll trade you the girl for your life," He smirked,
A gun poised and ready to kill. Sesshomaru fired a shot at his leg but at the same time jamison fired back to his arm.
Sesshomaru's face remained hard and Perfect, almost like the bullet had missed completely, Pain was no foriegn thing to him, but he did have tolerance.
"Sesshomaru!" Kagome yelled she got up and pounded on the door. "Let me out! Sesshomaru! Let me out!"

Jamison fired a shot at the door of the closet, and everything went quiet. Sesshomaru could hear his heart pounding in his ears. The knot dissolved, taking all of the
hydration in his mouth with it. Memories of his mother flooded over him in a cool sweat. Only,
He couldn't understand why he felt so strongly over her. A cold sweat rose through his veins and down into the palms of his hands.
"I needed her alive!" Sesshomaru growled, hoping she couldn't hear the real meaning behind his words.
He shot and it hit Jamison's head and he fell over twitching and eyes buldging.
"Some one come clean this up." He yelled. Sesshomaru may have been a murderous, malacious villan but
he still knew that it was unnecessary and impolite. He pushed the body out the door and grabbed some papertowells and
cleaned up the blood. He ran over to the closet and flung open the door. His strength ripped the door handle from it. She didn't appear to be in there.
"Kagome...," He whispered. Her name seemed so strange to his mouth, but so sweet at the same time.

He saw a few clothes move. "Sesshomaru...," She cried softly. He walked over to her hoping for the best, but prepared for
the worst. He pushed the clothes back and she was holding the side of her face with one hand and a bullet in the other.
It had skimmed her face. He pulled her hand down and looked at her face.
"Don't touch it please," She whispered.
He picked her up and saw that she was still clutching the bullet. He took her to the bathroom and sat her on the counter and got out a
first aid kit. He then proceeded to dress her wound. She was still slightly shaking and her eyes were wide and dull gray.
They seemed distant as she got off the counter and walked back into the bedroom. He walked to the door and closed it
quickly to protect her brain from further trauma. As the door made a closing boom, causing her to jump and her form to crouch
over with her knees to her chest.

[AN - What, I hope you people didn't think that she would be okay and they would have this whole steamy scene?? Doesn't work like that in real human
chain of reaction sorry]

"Graycn... we've got a lock on Kagome, they're off in the Country away from Civilization." Kayle said leaning over
one of his computer applicationists.
"We've got to get there now, we've got to get her back," Graycn replied. His eyes had purple rings around them and
in his right hand he had a phone to his hand, and his left was a hot cup of Starbucks Coffee. He hung up his CRAZR
and ran to where Kayle stood. Kayle tossed his black hair out of his eyes, "lock on find out how long it would take
to get from here to there." Graycn walked outside and nervously pulled out a pack of cigarettes, put one in his mouth
and fumbled around with a broken lighter. Kayle sighed beside him, you know smoking really won't solve your problems Graycn.
"Please Kayle, don't give me the therapist talk now, thanks for all your help but please just give me
the lighter i know that you have in your right pocket." Kayle furrowed his eyebrows and pulled out the lighter.
"One," He said.

"Sir, One hour and twenty minutes," The applicant said cracking the door leading outside. "Good we'll leave now,"
Graycn said throwing the cigarette down and smuthering it with his foot. "No," Kayle said grabbing Graycn's arm.
"Use your intelligence Graycn, we'll leave tonight at ten thirty, we must prepare." Graycn nodded yes, but hardly
comprehended what was coming from Kayle's larnyx. "The City is at War," Graycn whispered putting in another cigarette
and lighting it with Kayle's lighter.
"How'd you get that?" Kayle asked unbelievably. "I have my ways," Graycn said tossing him the lighter. He looked down
at his watch and pulled his keys out of his pocket. "I've got some bullet shopping to do."
He got into his 370 and drove down the road took a left and then was out of view.

...

The sunlight shone through the thin curtians casting a morning shadow on the furniture. Sesshomaru had watched her for the
past three hours. All she continued to do was sit, and stare directly ahead with the bullet in her hand.
At eight thirt-three, She looked around and found her clothes and walked into the bathroom, most likely to take a shower, shave,
and pratice personal hygine.

As she exited the shower, steam croweded the mirror and the room. She wrapped a towel around
her small frame and cracked the door open. Seeing Sesshomaru was no where to be found, so she dropped the towel that concealed
her hair and the towel that hid her body. She pushed the room door closed and pulled her undergarments on.

...

"I need bullets." Graycn said casually.
"What kind." The gunsmith asked.
"38 Calibre, pistol, and cap and ball," Graycn replied.
"Sir, you do know-," The gunsmith started.
"Just give me the bullets there's something in it for you." Graycn said.
The gunsmith sighed and went to the back for a few moments then returned to the front. Graycn pulled out his wallet.
"346 dollars and 34 cents." He said. Graycn laid it out on the table. He pulled out an extra wad of hundreds and put down five more.
"Between you and me, you never saw anything." Graycn said he grabbed the bag and walked out.
"I'm on my way Kagome." He whispered cranking up the car.
