Hehe, told you guys ASAP didnt I? Well here's the chapter... I started typing this at about two hours ago... hope its good :)

A Simple Request

Chapter 5- Impulse

"This is weird feeling." Shippo commented as Sango escorted him to his classroom.

"I know it is Shippo, but it isn't permanent. Kagome will be better soon, I promise."

"Are you sure you're not just saying that to pacify me? I'm not a baby you know." Sango gave him a sad smile and knelt to his height.

"Behave Shippo and stop trying to grow up so fast. I know you're demon and all but, live like a kid as long as you can. Kagome grew up to fast, and I'm pretty sure she doesn't want you to experience the same." Sango gave him a gentle hug and placed a kiss on his forehead. Shippo shrugged her off and entered his classroom. He missed his sister badly. It was odd not to wake up to her motherly voice and the smell of her great cooking.

Today he had woken up to Sango yelling at Kohaku to get dressed and for Ayame and Kouga to stop being intimate in the kitchen. Sango had offered to let him stay home that day but he was quick to decline. Staying home all day wouldn't serve him any good because he'd just think about his sister, so going to school was the best option to keep his mind occupied. He was hanging up his jacket and backpack when he spotted Rin sitting at a table. He hurriedly finished up and raced over to her, embracing her in a hug. "Hi Rin, how are you doing?" He felt Rin hug him back with excitement before she shrunk back with sadness in her liquid brown eyes.

"I'm sorry Shippo, my dad told me I had to stay away from you and Kagsie." She spoke solemnly with her head bowed.

"Why would he say that?"

"He told me you two were dangerous."

"That's nonsense…" Shippo replied then beamed her a smile.

"How could you be happy about this Shippo? I wanted us to be great friends."

"What he doesn't know won't hurt him." Shippo explained.

"Oh, that makes sense. I want to go see Kagome again."

"Again?"

"Yeah Daddy took me to see her this morning-,"

"Let's go then Rin." Shippo pleaded running to get his jacket. Rin followed behind him and grabbed hers as well. Rin put her jacket on and the two raced from the classroom.

"But how are we going to get there Shippo?"

"Kagome told me not to show off in front of humans because a lot of them think our powers are gone, but in this case, it's urgent." Before Rin could question what he meant, Shippo had transformed into a pony with a puffy fox tail. Rin cheered in excitement and leapt on his back. Neither noticed that she had done something no human could do.

"To Kagome Horsie Shippo!!" She exclaimed and Shippo neighed in response and then galloped off.

Sesshomaru sighed heavily as he walked into his office. He sat his briefcase near his desk and plopped in his chair, massaging his temples with his hands. Since meeting the Higurashi woman, Rin had turned into a miniature version of her and even began to resemble her slightly. Rin was beginning to demand more of him and with him being wrapped around her pinky, there was nothing he couldn't do but give her what she desired. He growled at the thought of Higurashi, Kagome. She was stubborn…beyond stubborn if that was possible. Even after being shot multiple times by her traitorous brother, she would not give him up. He glanced at the documents on the right side of his desk.

Hopefully he could get some background information on her soon, but he had other cases to work on besides getting caught up in the business of one loudmouthed female. His secretary knocked at the door before entering. "Mr. Tashio, your brother is on line one." Sesshomaru nodded at her and growled to himself as he picked up the receiver.

"What do you want hanyou?" he questioned gruffly with annoyance.

"Jeeze, what's STD is makin your dick rot today?" his brother's voice retorted.

"InuYasha…What in the hell did you call me for? I do not have time to argue with your stupidity today."

"Well, I don't have time to argue with your pompous ass today."

"Dim wit, you have five seconds with a good reason or I will hang up on you."

"I just wanted you to know I might have some dirt on Naraku, you at your office?"

"Yes, I will expect you at lunch."

"Jeeze," InuYasha responded, "I thought I was possed to be the one to set up the time I wanted to be there."

"You have two hours InuYasha. Do not be late and do not bring that filth you call your fiancée."

"Asshole…"InuYasha responded.

"Bastard…" Sesshomaru said before hanging up the phone. He moved the manila folders from near his mouse and opened up the government database. Surely there was something listed of their family here. The police database mainly covered criminal things. Sesshomaru smirked realizing that she was not in there. Unlike her brother, the girl had never been caught if she had ever killed anyone. He typed in their last name and records came up for Anika and Akina Higurashi, where the family line had started. Akina was born in 1720's and her younger sister in the 1730's. His skimmed their history, searching for Kagome's name. If her mother was human, then what the hell was she? Sesshomaru read that Souta Higurashi was born when Akina was twenty-four. How the hell did he manage to live four hundred some years? He decided to actually read and scrolled back to the top.

Akina married the eastern lord at the age of fifteen and then passed from unknown causes at that time when she was nineteen. Akina was given the choice to give the eastern lord's only heir up for adoption or keep her but no records were kept of what happened to the female heir of the eastern lord. Sesshomaru eyes' furrowed. He slightly remembered meeting the eastern lord and his daughter not too long after the girl was born when he was in adolescent years. When she was born, she was feared and praised for her birthday was in human terms June 6, 666. He definitely remembered his father jokingly mentioning an arranged marriage for the two to the eastern lord. Sesshomaru shrugged himself out of his memories and back into the history. Akina married Hidoku Ishigamu at twenty and then had a complicated birth with Souta Higurashi. "Why had she not named her son after her husband?" Sesshomaru wondered out loud with furrowed eyebrows as he continued.

Hidoku Ishigamu had two wives at that time unbeknownst by his first wife. He had married Anika Yashiro near the same time he had Akina. Anika birthed him four sons and a daughter, Kikyo Yashiro. Sesshomaru growled as their family began to connect. There were no way they were ordinary humans to have lived four hundred some years. His eyes darted back to Hidoku Ishigamu. His last name was what attracted his attention. He knew that Naraku Hanyou was often referred to as that last name, but he never knew why. He was commonly known as Naraku Hanyou. Sesshomaru gave a frustrated growl and continued reading. Hidoku and his four sons disappeared from mankind not too long after Anika birthed her daughter and Akina miscarried. Sesshomaru propped his chin on his hand and scrolled down a little further.

Shippo Higurashi was not birthed until 1996, two months before his Rin. "Mr. Tashio, your brother is here." His secretary interrupted his reading and Sesshomaru closed the program.

"I suppose you can send him in." He replied sitting back in his leather rolling chair.

"You damn right you can send me in, you wanted me to come here after all."

"Shut your mouth hanyou and have a seat." Sesshomaru instructed as his secretary closed the door. InuYasha grumbled under his breath and sat down in from of his brother.

"Why'd you get a new computer for?"

"My other one was insufficient." Sesshomaru responded, "Now what is the information you have for me?"

"I don't really have none, I said I may-,"

"InuYasha…" Sesshomaru growled, "You have been dangerously undercover for over three years…"

"I know man, but I think he might have a clue considering the fact I'm your fucking brother-,"

"Half brother hanyou." InuYasha's furry, pointed white ear twitched and he shrugged.

"Regardless," InuYasha continued, "He aint really been relyin shit on to me. I mean some fucking cunt bitch just killed the only people he told information to-,"

"A female?" Sesshomaru questioned.

"Yeah, I know who she is though."

"Well who is she to have taken out Naraku's most trusted and powerful men?"

"I dunno Kikyo's cousin…"

"InuYasha... You know more than you are telling me…"

"Well, yeah I know who she is but one thing I learned from bein undercover is not to rat. You prolly don't member but I dated her back in middle school."

"One thing that you need to unlearn is your usage of slang. It is killing what few brain cells you have remaining in that thick numbskull of yours." InuYasha grinned madly and propped his feet on Sesshomaru's desk, taking not of the manila folders.

"Don't tell me you been slackin in ya job Pretty Boy."

"No, I have not been slacking in my work InuYasha. I am merely busy with a few other important cases. One case concerning Souta Higurashi and Naraku Hanyou, and the other case about a female who keeps slipping from my grasp..."

"Word to your mother?" InuYasha replied, "What does she do?"

"For one, she is in Souta Higurashi's gang. I think they are related, but I have no leads in that." Sesshomaru half-lied trying to get InuYasha to confess who he was talking about. "She was involved in the burning of the warehouse on Riverside where over twenty-two bodies were found with nine millimeter fatal bullet wounds. Two of those bodies were Muso and Onigumo Hanyou, Naraku's brothers."

"You might be talking about Kagome Higurashi." InuYasha blurted. Sesshomaru smirked in triumph as his brother cursed under his breath.

"Really? Why have I not heard of her before?" Sesshomaru continued playing with InuYasha.

"I dunno," InuYasha stuttered, "She don't do much gang activity but when she does she look sexy as hell with her guns blazing wearing some nice outfit with four inch heels." Sesshomaru watched as the hanyou seemed to remember an encounter with her.

"Interesting, has she ever been wounded?"

"No, the only people who get near her die, and she always has backup with her."

"Who is her back up?"

"Usually Miroku and Kouga. Sometimes she has her bitches with her though."

"Her bitches InuYasha…." Sesshomaru responded almost rolling his eyes.

"Yeah, the girlfriends of Miroku and Kouga…To think we all went to school together and were friends. Fat chance of that reuniting anytime soon." Sesshomaru watched his brother lean back in the heavy leather chair. "Hey you got a new chair too."

"Do you know anything of her weaknesses?" Sesshomaru continued ignoring InuYasha's comment.

"Well yeah, but it aint exactly safe. There have only been two cases of when someone attempted it and the only thing they found was half a body smelling of the rarest acid." Sesshomaru's nose turned upward in disgust.

"What is it?"

"You aint gunna try it is you?" InuYasha questioned indecisively.

"No hanyou, don't tell me you are worried about this Sesshomaru."

"Of course not, just making sure you aint tryna leave Rin an orphan."

"Whatever Hanyou, just tell me what the weakness is."

"Well, whenever you mention or attempt to imply that you will harm her family, she goes berserk. I think some unfortunate guy attempted to kidnap her brother, Shippo Higurashi, but like I said, they were found in a barrel of acid with half a body."

"Have you heard any rumors of what Naraku's next actions may be?"

"No, the last time I heard he attempted somethin was when I saw Kagome last."

"When was that?"

"Not too long ago…I was the one who set the warehouse on fire and left her there for dead." Sesshomaru felt his beast stir but shrugged it off.

"What did Naraku attempt?"

"I dunno, but it musta been important cause he went there himself, but he had like ninety of us in there against Kouga, Miroku, and her." Sesshomaru furrowed his eyebrows and folded his arms across his chest.

"Did anyone hear anything about what might have happened?"

"Yeah, the gang was rumoring that he had asked Kagome for a child, but if that was the case, he coulda sent forty of us up there until Kagome ran outta bullets and raped her, but he aint do it. There's been plenty of opportunities he coulda raped her to get a baby."

"Hn," Sesshomaru responded leaking into slightly deep thought. "A child that will not be hanyou will need both the parents to be willing." InuYasha looked down slightly.

"My mom and Father were willing-,"

"Yes, but your mother was after father's money and estate as well." InuYasha shrugged and placed the leather chair on all its legs.

"Well, maybe if pops hadn't had died in that car crash, things would be different now."

"Perhaps, but don't let yourself believe in that. Your mother went AWOL as soon as she heard he was in the hospital with fatal injuries." Sesshomaru glanced at his clock on the computer screen. "It is time for me to pick up Rin, watch who you confide in Hanyou." Sesshomaru spoke while placing the manila files into his briefcase. InuYasha took the opportunity to depart while Sesshomaru closed up his office. "Father, who would have thought a simple car crash with a human woman, would kill even the mightiest of dog demons?" Sesshomaru questioned the air as he clasped his briefcase close.

Kagome sat on the roof of her house for the longest time. She expected it was around noon by the position of the sun and sighed. She had been sitting up here since around eight that morning, still in her hospital clothes. Shrugging to herself, Kagome climbed down and entered her home. She headed immediately to her room and to the shower. When she emerged, she was wearing slightly formal clothes with black boots that had a three inch heel. Kagome sighed and then walked into the garage, pressing the automatic button so it would open while she climbed on top of her motorcycle. Once the garage door was open, she reversed her bike and closed it with a button near the handlebars of her bike. She watched as it closed before revving the engine and racing off.

"Hm, these apartments look pretty nice." Kagome thought as she pulled into apartments that rich people more than likely used for when they were in town. Shrugging, she climbed off her motorcycle and headed for the front office.

"I don't care who gets fired, I need someone to actually move into the apartment above me. I'm tired of hearing bums and prostitutes use that room for their pleasure!" a woman shouted to what appeared to be the receptionist. "Well, ma'am, that apartment is strictly for people who plan to live their long term. We can get the locks changed if you wish-,"

"That will not due, where is your security?"

"Umm, excuse me, but is this the place where I can see if there are any available apartments for long-term living basis?" Kagome questioned meekly. The woman wearing a pretty white dress turned hot red orbs on her before looking back to the receptionist looking woman with a smile.

"Yes, but it is our last-,"

"That doesn't matter, how big is it?" Kagome questioned.

"It has three bedrooms, a balcony, medium sized kitchen, large living room, and you have a one person access to the roof."

"Wow, and no one wants that place?" Kagome questioned with awe. The receptionist smiled.

"The requirement is that you must have a child. The apartment block that it is on is strictly for women with a child."

"Oh, are pets accepted as well in that case?"

"Yes, animals are accepted, however nothing exotic." Kagome smiled.

"When can I put a down payment in and be expected to move in?"

"We can ship boxes to your current place of living as soon as tomorrow and you can move in whenever you like."

"Well, can I pay the rent for a year now?"

"We don't accept large cash here, but-,"

"I don't have that much cash, but will a check work?"

"That will be perfect." The receptionist responded.

"You can fax me your paperwork when you deem necessary."

"Alright," Kagome replied removing a check from her back pocket, "I've been looking at this place for about two years, I hope you guys haven't changed the rent much. I wrote this check about a month ago, so it should be alright." Kagome responded handing the check to the receptionist. The receptionist took it with a smile that was saying 'Thank you for getting that crazy woman off my back.' Kagome returned the smile and was approached by the red eyed woman.

"So you'll be living in Apartment 42D. You're in great shape for a mother by the way." Kagome smiled and checked the woman's figure.

"I could say the same for you, but I haven't ever given birth. I am in custody of my younger brother though, so he is considered my child." The woman tossed her wavy black hair from her shoulders and held her hand out for a handshake.

"My name is Kagura Wind, I live in apartment 40D, right under you with my daughter Kanna. It'll be a pleasure to be your neighbor." Kagome smiled and gave her hand a firm shake.

"I'm Kagome Higurashi it's nice to meet you, but I'm afraid I have to be off." Kagome glanced back at the receptionist woman.

"Could you please have one hundred boxes shipped to 205 Griffin Lane by tomorrow?"

"Yes Ma'am, it will be a pleasure to house you here." Kagome nodded and left the office, the woman Kagura following not too far behind. Kagome mounted her motorcycle and watched for Kagura's reaction.

"Nice custom made 'cycle. I envy you because I had to give mines up when I was pregnant with Kanna." Kagome smiled gently and waved as she departed from the apartment complex.

"Her room is still empty." Rin announced as they rounded into her room.

"What do you mean still empty?"

"Me and Daddy were here earlier. I had left to get her bottled water and when I came back she was gone."

"Ah, you two must be here for Kagome's clothes. She discharged herself and forgot all about them. Here you go." A nurse said handing the clothes to Shippo. Shippo nodded and took them with care. The hospital had taken the liberty to clean them, and on top was the nightgown Rin had previously worn.

"I guess Kagome is at home then." Rin sighed and Shippo nodded.

"Wanna fly to my house?" Shippo questioned and Rin cheered. He transformed into a large gryphon and Rin climbed aboard. He had to turn sideways to leave out the still open window though and soon the two were on their way to Shippo's house. Shippo landed just as Kagome was loading her motorcycle into a trailer.

"Shippo!" Kagome exclaimed, "What the hell, you're supposed to be at school!"

"I'm sorry Kagome, we were worried about you." Kagome glanced at Rin and gave a gentle smile.

"Well, I suppose that's okay, but don't do it again." Kagome latched the trailer close and ventured back into the garage after Rin handed her, her clothes..

"What are you doing Kagome?"

"I'm selling the house."

"Why?"

"Because, there is no way I can live here anymore, and this neighborhood is crap." Shippo nodded and watched as she grabbed several stuffed trash bags and put them on the curb. She removed her cell phone from her back pocket to check the time. "C'mon I'll lock up here temporarily and I'll go drop you off at the school, okay Rin?" Rin nodded enthusiastically and Kagome did as she said she would. "Does your father know you were not at school today?" Kagome questioned as she pulled out of her driveway. She watched as Rin shook her head and Kagome frowned.

"Daddy doesn't even want me to talk to you guys anymore."

"What, but why would he say a thing like that for Rin?"

"I don't know Kagsie, but he said you were dangerous, and I told him that you weren't and he just isn't very brave." Kagome couldn't help but chuckle as they pulled into the school parking lot. Her eyes landed on Sesshomaru arguing with Shippo's teacher and she eeped.

"Looks like we're in for some trouble with your father Rin." Kagome spoke as she shifted the car into park and got out. She opened Rin's door and helped her and Shippo out before Sesshomaru dismissed Rin's teacher and stormed over to them.

"Woman, what in the hell are you doing with my child?" He questioned angrily. Kagome gave him a simple smile and removed Rin's tiny grasp from her fingers.

"I am returning her to school so she could be picked up by you. I'm surprised you are on time." Sesshomaru growled warningly at Kagome and took Rin's hand.

"I am surprised you are not in the hospital."

"Yeah well you know me…" Kagome trailed off glaring at him.

"Daddy, it's not Miss Kagome's fault, so don't yell at her."

"Rin…do not take to the defense of the guilty."

"No seriously Daddy, it was me and Shippo's idea to go see her at the hospital, but then she wasn't there, so we went to Shippo's house."

"Even so, I told you not to speak to them-,"

"What kind of father tells their daughter that Sesshomaru? That's a load of-,"

"Well Woman, it is true. You put my child endanger-,"

"We already went through this you retard. You know good and well-,"

"I am not about to argue with you. It is pointless because you don't put up a very good excuse for your irresponsible actions. Come Rin, we shall depart from them now. Next time I expect you to listen to me when I tell you to stay away from something." Kagome watched as Rin unwillingly sulked beside her father. She watched as they pulled away and glanced down at Shippo's disappointed face.

"You can still communicate with her at school Shippo. All is not lost."

Well, I know that you dont exactly get an apartment like that lol. I know good and well that that isnt possible, but, hey. The woman was desperate to get Kagura off her back lol.
