A/N: I know it's short...shorter than usual, I know where I want to go just not how to get there with me feeling happy with it, so I decided to post what I do like as a filler to the next fuller length chapter.
A/N 2: The Assassin's Rule that I used is from Soul Eater.
Chapter 7
Ryu paced back and forth in his bedroom, trying to decide what he would do about his next job. Meeting the young girl had peeked his curiousity on the 'tale' Sesshomaru had mentioned.
When he had asked his friends he was met with the similair responses, 'I know who Inuyasha is… he's an asshole. What was the other name?'; it seemed that no one in the last two hundred years knew. And there were few he felt comfortable enough to ask without it possibly getting back to Sesshomaru.
"Someone old" he mumbled, tapping his fingertips to his lips. "Someone who knew Inuyasha" he walked to his desk, pulling out a binder of profiles, he began to quickly flip through all of his previous employers, scanning the page before moving on.
"Hmmm" he hummed thoughtfully, "I haven't spoken to him since I first consumed a kill" He placed the book on his desk, ignoring the chill that ran down his spine as he left the apartment.
Bleed into the shadows! Bleed into the shadows! The panther demon's mind screamed as her breath played against the targets neck. With one inward deep breath the assassin fought to keep her cover. Bleed into the shadows… erase your breathing… and wait for your target to let down his guard, she thought, slowly creeping back to the open window of the snake demon's apartment.
She stealthly made her way up the fire escape, leaping from building to building she easily kept pace with the snake demon below. Pulling out her cell phone she prepared to report back to Sesshomaru.
"Thank you for calling Taisho, Inc.; who can I connect you with" the panther demon connected with the side of a building, the height differences of the buildings in the city slowing her slightly.
"Lord Sesshomaru" the feline sighed impatiently, her neck strained as she kept the phone to her ear.
"Alright ma'am, however he's denyinh guests to his office so he might not answer"
"Just put me through" the demon shouted in frustration. A click signaled that she was put through, it rang once.
"I have time for one person, if your not them, hang up" Sesshomaru growled.
"Yes my lor-" the feline started.
"Mimiru, you know I'm waiting for your report, where are you? It sounds like you're in a wind tunnel" he stated in frustration.
"Following the target" she responded, she was in an open area now and was able to run freely, "We're heading East" she stated, knowing that Sesshomaru knew what she was leading to.
"Good work Mimi, be careful, you know how they feel about me. The wolf den might not be the safest place for more then one of my agents to be."
