Chapter 4: Nighthawk (Part 1)

Kagome Higurashi was sitting on the roof of a major corporation's main building. Her short black hair was flying around her head, the gun in her hand trained on the black haired girl in the office across the street. Kagome wanted to make Nekoi pay for everything she did to her. Taking Inuyasha had been the final straw.

'God', Kagome thought, 'I'd love to rip her throat out of her neck and feed it to the dogs, but, seeing as I can't do that…I guess I'll have to settle for this.' Kagome moved one finger deftly to switch off the safety and then looked into the scope to make sure she had her gun on her target exactly. 'Ayla Hiokans, you are going to die today.' But before Kagome could squeeze the trigger, someone kicked her in the gut. Kagome rolled to the side, dropping her gun.

"So, are you really that stupid?" Kagome's head shot up, she was staring at Kalian Aimon; another one of her targets. "Did you really think I'd let someone like you kill Ayla, you really are an idiot then, aren't you?" Kagome sprung up off the ground and launched a kick into Kalian's face. He dodged it easily. She continued to throw kicks and punches at him, but he mananged to dodge them everytime.

'How in the hell is he doing this?' Kagome screamed in her mind after the 7th kick he dodged. She was getting physically exhausted by this, Kalian didn't even seem to have broken a sweat yet.

"Come on Kagome, hit me!" Kagome glared at Kalian from under her eyelashes. He was extremely close to the edge.

'Wonder if I can knock him over that edge? He'd grab on, but there'd be no way for him to pull himself back up. Maybe he'll give me answers then." Kagome took a couple of steps back and started gauging how quickly that she would have to run in order to knock him off.

"Aww...are you a scared little baby?" Kagome's head jerked up and she looked him dead in the eye.

"You wish Kalian." She took off, he really wasn't expecting it and boy, did she fly. By time he realized what she was doing, it was too late. Kagome's shoulder rammed into his chest, knocking him backwards off the roof. But instead of him grabbing on, he fell straight down towards the ground.

"Dammit Kalian!!" Kagome shouted after she looked over the edge of the building. Kalian had been the first person she wanted to take out after she claimed revenge on Nekoi. Kalian was a close childhood friend of the Hiokans', but he had somehow managed to evade her and actually beat her the first time that they faced off. But now he had probably gone splat on the ground below her, and when she turned around to see her target; she was gone. 'Dammit again, I guess Kalian got what he deserved though. Interfering with what I was doing. I don't give a damn if they are childhood friends or not.' Kagome gathered up her gun, turned the safety back on, and headed for the stairway. She was maybe halfway there when someone kicked her in the back and knocked her over again.

"God, you really are an idiot." Kagome jumped up and spun around, looking her attacker in the face. "Did you really think a little fall like that would hurt me?" Kalian grinned; Kagome could smell the evil thoughts running across his mind.

"Kalian, this is a 30 story building, you should've gone splat on the sidewalk." Kalian just rolled his eyes, as if Kagome was the most simple-minded person the world.

"It's kind of hard to go splat when you got these." He stuck his hand in her face, showing off five claws, sharpened to kill. Kagome gulped slightly at the sight. It wasn't like she had seen claws before; she just hadn't seen claws that well kept or that sharp. "So, you ready to play?" Kalian pulled his hand back and balled it up, aiming a punch right at Kagome's face. Kagome had one of two choices, she could run; or, she could stand here and square off with a demon. As her mind was going over the options, Kalian threw his punch right at her. She barely managed to block it.

'Looks like I'm going to have to go with Door number 2.' And so, Kagome launched a kick; right into Kalian's stomach.
