Chapter 5- Operation Takedown Begins

Kagome sat up in the tree house at the Takashi residence they all used to play in as kids. She could tell it had been a very long time since anyone had been up here, maybe a young relative of theirs but that's about it. She was glad their father went above and beyond because otherwise they probably wouldn't all still fit.

She heard someone coming up the ladder and felt relief sweep through her. Even though it was only one she'd really begun to think no one would show at all.

She saw the white hair and dog ears first as Inuyasha made his way up and inside. He sat opposite her with a smirk on his face. "Well, it's been a long time since we've been in here. Brings back some memories doesn't it?"

Kagome blushed. "Yes, it does. I'm glad you came, thank you."

"Feh, you should know by now if anyone hates gossip girl more than you, it'd be me. Who else did you invite?"

"Um, Sango, Miroku, Kouga, Ayame and Sesshomaru."

"Sesshomaru? I know you like him, but is that really a good enough reason to invite him? He won't care about this."

"Maybe not, but it's worth a try. We could really use him and he'd be the least one to be suspected of anything. Please just try to get along for this it would mean a lot to me if you would try."

"Feh." Inuyasha folded his arms across his chest with a scowl.

Kagome smiled brightly taking the air from his chest. "I'll take that as a yes."

They heard another person coming up the ladder and Kouga climbed in a huge grin on his face. "Man we had some good times in here."

Inuyasha smirked and Kagome blushed again. "Thanks for coming Kouga."

"No prob, Kags."

A few seconds later another could be heard coming up and Sango came in next. "Hey, I had my first kiss in this little tree house. You did to didn't you Kagome?"

Kagome swore under her breath. "You had to bring that up, didn't you?"

"Nice to see you too, Kagome."

"Feh, why can't everyone just hurry up so we can get on with this?"

"Inuyasha, obviously if we all showed up here at the same time it would defeat the purpose of not being seen. You can't sneak in that many people together at one and expect not to draw attention."

"Forgive my little brother, he isn't the brightest when it comes to these things." Sesshomaru entered the tree house and took a seat next to Kagome far enough away so that they wouldn't be touching.

"Oh and you're so smart Fluffy?"

Kagome could practically feel Sesshomaru's eyes start to bleed red and she wasn't even looking at him. "Cut it out. Let's all just play nice. Please?" She said the last part looking at Sesshomaru. He stared at her for a few moments before shrugging his shoulders.

Kagome rubbed her temples and turned her attention back to the others. "As soon as Ayame and Miroku get here we can get started."

As if on cue Ayame popped her head in. "Hey guys!" She climbed in and sat in Kouga's lap.

"You two have been all over each other lately, how about you keep your hands to yourself while we're here."

"Don't be such a sour puss, Inuyasha."

"Feh, at least Miroku and Sango go into the janitor's closet."

"Thank you! That's what I tried to tell them."

Kagome stifled a laugh as Miroku came in.

"Close the curtain behind you everyone's here now."

Miroku did as asked and took his seat next to his girlfriend.

"So Kagome, what's this all about?"

"Well, I'm tired of my entire life being told by gossip girl. She stretches the truth and tries to cause problems between everyone. I don't know about you, but I miss the days when we didn't have to worry about her."

"I do that's for sure."

"So, I think we should find out who she is and shut her down. I didn't want to bring anyone else in because we all know we can trust each other. Besides, it's easier to meet up with less people. So, what do you think?"

"I say let's go for it. She never goes a post without trying to break me and Miroku up."

"Yeah, and she always picks on me and Ayame."

"And when isn't she trying make you and Inuyasha hate each other?"

"That's her favorite thing to do." Inuyasha said with his fists clenching and unclenching. "Do you think maybe it could be a man?"

"Gossip GIRL?"

"You never know."

"Well, I say we find out. So, Sesshomaru do you think you can try to use some of your resources and see what you can find? We need something to start on."

Sesshomaru nodded.

"Okay, that settles it. Sesshomaru will let me know when he finds anything out and then I'll set up another meeting. Thanks for coming everyone. We'll have to leave one at a time and with some time between each so we can be sure we aren't seen."

They all nodded.

"I'm gonna go first. I have a test that I have not studied for and I have to get up early to do it. See you guys later." Ayame kissed Kouga quickly then left out of the door.

Sesshomaru went next without a word and the rest soon followed until only Kagome and Inuyasha were left.

"Well, that felt like we just went back in time."

Kagome smiled. "Yeah it did. We all used to have a lot of fun together. Even Sesshomaru when we were really little."

"Yeah, I'm not sure what happened to him."

Kagome shrugged. "I'll leave last since this was kind of my thing anyway."

Inuyasha walked over and sat in front of her until there noses were nearly touching. "I can think of a few things that happened in here I will never forget." He placed both his hands on either side of her head and kissed her softly on the lips. By the time she opened her eyes to look back at him he was already gone.

Well, it seems that the class trip is a definite go, but juniors and seniors only sorry to the rest of you! But I will keep you all posted because of course I won't be far behind! So, thank you Kikyo for making it happen which leads us to say what is it do you have planned?

Kikyo read the gossip girl post with a wicked smile. No one would be finding out her plan and if they did she would make sure it would be far too late to matter. Naraku didn't matter he was but another pawn in her games. She would have what she wanted no matter the cost.

She almost felt bad for her cousin. Almost.

Kagome sat in the booth at a very quiet low-key restaurant. Of course she was still more than likely being spied on but it didn't really matter. She planned to fix that as soon as she could.

Bankotsu walked in and Kagome waved him over. He smiled and sat across from her. "Hey Kagome, it's good to finally get you to myself."

Kagome laughed. "I am a hot commodity."

He laughed with her. "So, how are things?"

"Things are good."

"Hmm, you take all this bad publicity, surprisingly well."

Kagome shrugged. "I just don't let gossip girl affect me. She isn't worth the time."

"You kissed her?"

Inuyasha growled. "I'm not repeating myself again you've asked me that four times now."

Sango smacked him in the back of the head. "What were you thinking? Are you trying to be a jerk on purpose?"

"Sango, dear I'm sure that's not the case. Even if it does seem like it."

"I just kissed her it's no big deal."

"It is a big deal when it could hurt her. You can't act like you care about her but sleep around with Kikyo. I won't let you hurt Kagome that way."

"I'm not trying to hurt her. Mind your own business, will ya? I'm not going to hurt Kagome."

"You better hope not pup or it's going to be me you have to deal with and it's not going to be pretty."

Sango stormed off down the hall.

"You know she's really scary sometimes, even to me."

Miroku shivered. "You have no idea."

Kagura swished her hips as she approached Naraku sitting in a chair in his room. She straddles his legs and sat facing him.

"You know, all work and no play is no fun." Kagura took the book out of his hands and dropped it to the floor. She leaned in and kissed him on the neck.

Naraku smirked. He wrapped his arms around her body. "You are a good little pet, aren't you?"

Kagura didn't answer and continued what she was doing.

"I need you to keep and eye on Kikyo for me. I don't trust her. I think she plans to use me and try to betray me."

Kagura nodded. "I have no doubt of that, Naraku, but for now let's forget about all that shall we?"

They had made it to the end of the evening and were walking along the sidewalk outside. It was a chilly night and Bankotsu had leant her his jacket when she shivered from it.

He seemed to be a nice guy and he was very cute, but for the life of her she couldn't feel one spark of chemistry between them. Wouldn't it be nice to just go with a third-party and leave her feelings for the Takashi brother's behind? But no, that wouldn't happen and it didn't matter how many guys she tried to date she wouldn't feel anything for them until she resolved things with the two of them.

Bankotsu stopped when they reached her car. "I had a nice time tonight."

Kagome nodded. "So did I. It was a quiet night for once, thank you."

"Pleasures all mine." He leaned down to kiss her but Kagome stopped him.

"I'm sorry Bankotsu, I like you, but I just don't think we can be more than friends right now."

"Would this have anything to do with the last name Takashi?"

"Let's just call it bad timing. How about we just keep it friends for now and see what happens?"

"I'm good with that. Goodnight, Kagome."

"Goodnight, Bankotsu."

How is the bitter sting of rejection? Let's just ask the dark handsome new boy seems thanks to our little Kagome he knows all about it! Seems our girl only has room in her heart for two boys right now! Don't worry Ban I'm sure that will clear up when Kagome finds that Sesshomaru isn't what she really thinks he is and Inuyasha well I think Kikyo can speak for us on that one.
