Disclaimer: -wrestles around with several police officers- I'm telling you, I didn't say that I own it! Rumiko Takahashi owns Inuyasha, not me! You gotta believe me! -struggles as she's put in the back of a police cruiser- I'VE BEEN FRAMED I TELL YOU! I'VE BEEN FRAMED!
Rating: M, NC-17, R, X...however you want to say it. If you're too young to fully comprehend everything written in here, then you should not be reading this. I don't want to be held accountable for twisting your minds. I've twisted my own mind, and had help with corrupting my younger siblings. I don't need to twist anyone else anymore.
Warnings: Rating(see above), sexual themes, coarse language, sexual situations, violence, explicit dance scenes and anything else that catches my fancy as I write this. Please, pay heed to the warnings. They are very important and MUST be taken seriously.
Pairings: starts as Kou/Kag, future Sess/Kag, implied Kik/Kag, Inu/Kik, Mir/San, possible Ship/Rin. I think that's all I have planned for right now.
Reviews: LynGreenTea- Thank you so much for the review. And congrats on being the first review I've gotten from -tosses you lots of Inu-plushies- I'm converting all my chapters as fast as I can, while continuing to write the story, so things are going sort of slow right now. Thankfully things are slow at work and I'm able to get home early and work on the chapters more. Again, thank you for the review and I hope you like the next installment!
Chapter 3
Family Ties
Rin looked at Inuyasha and gave him a small smile as she shrugged her shoulders. "I'm trying to get a job here," she said softly, "What are you doing here?"
He looked back at her and shook his head. "I'm here pretty damned near all the time," he explained, "Kagome is my best friend and I'm one of her most loyal patrons." He gave her a sharp glance. "Does Sesshoumaru know that you're here?" He sighed and gave a short laugh when she paled. "He won't like to know this at all."
She looked at him in a panic. "Please, Inuyasha, don't tell him I've been here. I'm just here to try for a job, that's it. I'll tell him that I've been here if I get it, I promise."
Sango switched her glance between the two of them, greatly confused. "Ok, hold on a sec," she said, waving her hands at them, "How in the Hell do you guys know each other?"
Inuyasha gave her a toothy grin. "Well, you see, Sango," he began, "Rin here is technically my niece. Well, half-niece anyway. My older half-brother, Sesshoumaru, adopted her when she was oh so very little."
Sango laid shocked eyes on Rin. "Really? You were adopted by the Ice Prince?"
"Don't call him that!" Rin shouted. "He's not as cold as everyone wants to think he is. He's really nice once you get to know him." She walked away and started taking care of the customers to avoid talking any further about her adopted father.
Sango leaned over the bar, closer to Inuyasha. "Okay, spill. Why weren't we told about Rin before? I mean, she's human, and she appears to be around our age. Why weren't we introduced to her before?"
"I think she was off at school or something like that. And even if she wasn't, you know how much I just love being around my brother." He rolled his eyes at his own comment. "He wouldn't have allowed her to go anywhere with me. And we both know that if he were to come here with me, there would be a whole load of trouble that follows him."
A few moments later, Kagome walked over to them, her face flushed and her aura screaming with anger. "Damn him straight to the pits of the Seven Hells," she grumbled.
Inuyasha smiled at her. "Let me guess, Kouga decided to grace you with his presence?" he asked. "I told you not to get involved with him. Did you listen to me? Of course not, baka ningen. When do you ever listen to me?"
Kagome turned and glared at him fiercely. "Are you looking to get purified, Yash? If not, THEN SHUT THE FUCK UP!"
He placed his hand on hers and looked her in the eyes. "Kags, calm down. The last thing we need is for you to go ballistic and purify every youkai and hanyou in the room. Business would go down real fast if that happened."
Kagome took a few deep breaths and concentrated on Inuyasha's calmer aura, letting it soothe her own. "Sorry, Yash. He just pisses me off so much sometimes. He just doesn't know when to quit." She grabbed a bottle of Miller from under the bar and set it down in front of him. "And I do listen to you. I just thought that he deserved a chance."
He took a long drink from the bottle. "Oh, please, Kagome. He's a piece of royal shit. Smells worse than my brother but is actually easier to get along with."
"Inuyasha, didn't I just tell you not to say such things about Sesshoumaru?" Rin called out from the other side of the bar.
Kagome looked from Inuyasha to Rin. "You two know each other?"
The younger girl nodded her head. "He's my adopted uncle through his half-brother. Though I swear that they're sworn enemies, not brothers."
Inuyasha took another drink. "The guy hates me. I hate him. That's the way it will be for a very long time."
Rin smiled sweetly at him. "The only reason he acts like he hates you is because you act like an ass whenever you're around him. He's your brother, not someone you have to fend off because he's after your girl."
"Speaking of girls," Kagome chimed, wanting to change the subject, "Where's Kikyou? I thought she'd be here with you."
Inuyasha shook his head. "I thought she told you. She's off visiting some family member who's in the hospital. Christ, and you two are related?"
Kagome laughed out loud. "We may be related, but it's step-family through Jii-chan's side. We're only distant cousins through marriage. What she has to do with her family is her business and I don't want a thing to do with it."
Rin looked out at the crowd and saw a few guys facing each other, their expressions none too friendly. "Uh, Kagome," she said quickly, "Looks like there's trouble out on the floor."
Kagome looked up. "Fuck!" She jumped over the bar and ran over to the men, immediately starting to straighten things out.
"Leave it to Kagome to control a bunch of drunks," Inuyasha mused out loud.
"I take it that she does this on a regular basis?" Rin asked as she prepared a few drinks.
Inuyasha nodded his head. "There's usually 3 fights a night that she ends up stopping. And it's almost guaranteed that she'll be in at least one of those." He turned away from Rin and watched as Kagome kicked the men out of the club.
"I didn't think that those moron would ever leave," moaned Miroku as he plopped down on a barstool. "Isn't there anything you can do to close this place earlier?"
Kagome shook her head as she restocked the bottles and cans. "Sorry, Miroku," she said sweetly, "There's no way that I'm going to close early on a Friday night. We make too much money for me to do that." She kept an eye on Rin as she cleared glasses from the now empty tables. "What do you guys think of her?"
Sango looked back at her quickly. "I think she's cute," she replied as she turned back to Kagome. "The regulars like her. Said that she made them laugh more than they had in a while."
Miroku lifted his flattened forehead from the bar. "I think you should keep her. Maybe then we can have a few more days off."
"Miroku, you just want another ass to grab."
"Sango, you should know by now that your ass is the ONLY ass I want to grab."
"HENTAI!" Sango then proceeded to hit him yet again with the ever present tray in her hands. She brought her attention back to Kagome. "Are you going to keep her?"
Kagome just smiled her her friend. "Hey, Rin," she called out, "Come over here."
Rin walked quickly to the bar, setting the empty glasses in the dishwasher. "Yeah?"
Kagome smiled at her. "So, how did you enjoy your first night in 'Paradise'?"
"Oh, I loved it! This place is so much fun! And the customers you get...Wait, did you say my first night?"
Kagome nodded her head. "Yes. You are now officially a drink goddess of Miko's Paradise."
Rin immediately wrapped her around Kagome in a tight hug and started jumping around her. "Oh, thank you, Kagome! Thank you so much! You have no idea how much this means to me!"
Everyone started laughing at the young woman. "Ok, ok, Rin, settle down. Why don't you go home and get some sleep. I'll need you back here and ready to work tomorrow."
Rin grabbed the money out of her tip dish and started dancing. "I'll be here. You can count on it." She ran out the door and to her car. I definitely have to bring Sesshou-papa here, she thought while starting her car.
End Chapter
A/N: I know that the chapters are kind of short right now. I'm not doing that intentionally, it's just the way things kind of worked out. As I write more, I will try to make them longer, or at least post more chapters. It all depends on how the creative juices are flowing. Please, let me know what you think! Ja ne, minna-san!
