Promise Me
Chapter 15
O.O Can you believe it! Two chapters in less than a week! Yay for me! Lol! Well, yes, for my neglect to you, my faithful reviewers I have come up with another chapter. As I said, I am sorry for not posting in the last six or so months and I will try my best to keep up with my story from now on. I have yet to get ideas for my other three stories but I hope this one will do for now. But enough of rambling on and onto the story!
Naraku
Naraku sat by the phone, waiting for his ungrateful brother's call, how did that bastard end up in jail anyway? Why was it that he got caught and how did he get caught? He would have to wait for the girl to arrive with the envelope in order to go into action. Of course he could just continue on with everything as if nothing happened but this would not due.
He sighed as he sat back and took back the wiskey that sat before him. The woman, Huyuzora had gone out for the night and he let her. But he would soon have to find out about this woman, she seemed a little to suspicious to him. Once again he took back another shot of wiskey. How in hell's name did it come to this?
He looked over his shoulder to the pale woman sitting by the window. Her name was Kikyou, and she was Onigumo's wife, she was a bitch to say the least, but he put up with her for his brother's sake. She was not really what you would call a babe, but she was pretty in her own way. Not to mention deadly if you toyed around with her, she wouldn't hesitate to kill you if you messed with anything that was hers.
She was dressed in a tight pair of jeans with a black t-shirt under a leather jacket. She had come to him a few days after Onigumo was taken in for who knows what. Of course they knew what, but how had he been caught? Why was it that after years and years of doing this he had been caught.
This didn't seem right at all, it was in the least annoying most of all. He would no doubt punish whoever had found out the whole thing and perhaps kill him or her. He was in no mood at the moment and as he stood he walked over to Kikyou and told her that she should go back to her house and wait for him or Onigumo to call.
She stood and looked at him, fire burning in her eyes, but she didn't argue with him. He walked out with her and watched as she got onto her black motor cycle. She said something about Onigumo and then started her machine and sped off down the road back to her house.
Sesshoumaru
He paced around the hotel room as he thought about the reason Kagome would be in trouble. He thought she was safe in the hands of the girl named Sango, but he may have been wrong. But whatever the reason, he would take her and he would not let harm come to her.
He walked over to the window and looked out over the city and sighed. What was it that she was hiding from him? Why did she try to push him out of her life when they met up once again? He would find out as soon as she arrived and that was in less then two days. He would be going to a meeting in the morning but he had already arranged a flight and she would be coming in two days.
His meetings would be over by then and he would be able to stay there in the city with her. He would show her a good time and perhaps even fly Kouga down. He walked over to the bed and sat on the edge, he should have got her on an earlier flight. He had to calm down, he would give her some space and when she was ready he would talk to her about what was wrong, but for now he would just go to work.
He walked over to the desk and opened the laptop and started to go through the files and many business stuff that would be presented at the meeting in the morning. He sighed and he knew that this would be a long day and night.
Kagome
Kagome sat silently at the kitchen table as she ate. She glanced up and met with Inuyasha's gaze, looking back down she filled her mouth once again. He had talked to her this morning about everything and she had told him all she knew. He had said that he would not let any harm come to her. But what about himself? She had thought to herself as he said that, he was putting himself in danger and Sango was doing the same.
If anything happened to them she would never forgive herself. Then there was Sesshoumaru, how had he come into all of this? Why did it have to be now of all times to come back into her life? A tear slid down her cheek and she got up from the table and walked out of the house into the garden of the house. There she walked over to a fountain and sat at its edge and looked down at the water at her reflection.
She splashed the water and stood, as she stood she bounced off of Inuyasha. She felt herself falling backwards and prepared herself for a splash, and when it didn't come she opened her eyes. There staring at her with his arm around her waist was Inuyasha. She pushed herself away from him and stood still, not knowing exactly what to say. In the end it was he who spoke to her.
"Kagome, did you know about this? About Naraku?" He asked as he looked into her eyes. She looked away and fiddled with her shirt a bit, she really had no clue as to what the man had been up to all these years. She shook her head and walked passed Inuyasha, telling him not to follow her.
She walked off of the property and down the street for about twenty blocks. There she sat at a bus stop and waited for a few minutes before it came into view. She got out some change and when the bus came to a stop she got in and put the change in the slot and walked to the back of the bus. It was empty but for a few people sitting up by the front of the bus.
She rode the bus to as far as its last stop and got off, it was a part of town she didn't know about. It wasn't the best of places to be for it looked horrible, but she just didn't care where she went at the moment. She shrugged her shoulders to herself and walked on.
Passing many run down old buildings she minded her own business as she passed by an alley with a few people fighting. But she soon was coming up on a group of people sitting on the steps of a better looking building than most and some of them whistled at her. She walked on trying to ignore them but some guy walked up to her and took her under his arm.
"Hey, babe. What's your name, are you new around here?" He asked her but she kept walking. Which seemed to anger him and she found herself swung around and facing a group of people.
"You'll answer me slut!"
"Now, now, Manten. Don't scare the poor girl." Came a voice and from the shadows came a very handsome man. He wore army cargo pants and a white t-shirt that seemed to define the muscles under the t-shirt. His hair was cropped short and spiked and he had piercing eyes that were a reddish color.
He took her from the other guys arm and held her under his own and took her away from the crowd. He lead her to the stairs and made her sit down as he sat down beside her.
"I see you have met my unruly brother Manten, I am Hiten. Who might you be?" His voice flowed smooth as silk as he spoke to her.
"I am, Kagome." She answered.
"Ah, what a beautiful name you have there, Kagome." He looked up as everyone crowded around them once again. He stood and walked up to his brother and smacked him on the head, then sat back down.
"Everyone, this is Kagome." They all nodded at her in reply and then it had begun, Hiten started to introduce his group.
"That, is Manten, Yura is beside him, that is Jakotsu, Tsubaki beside her, and the two boys beside her are the twins, Juuromaru and Kageroumau and the little girl there is my sister, Souten. You have still to meet Bankotsu, but you will in time, that is if you stick around long enough."
She looked around at all of them and then back at the man beside her and nodded, she wasn't sure why she was doing it but she decided to stay and get to know them a bit better. She had no idea that this group was the most feared in the neighborhood, but she was new around these parts and as she walked along with Hiten she got many stares from other teens and the older people as well.
He showed her around the place and told her about everyone and everything around the place. He told her who to avoid and who was okay to talk to and he also told her about each and every person's house and where they could be found. She was told not to mess with Yura, for she was vain in temper at times and Tsubaki was almost the same as Yura, Manten was angered easy but once his friend he was okay. The twins always looked out for each other and if you messed with one you were messing with the other as well, Jakotsu was a very odd person and was into other guys. The little girl, Souten was a mixture of her brothers, and Bankotsu was the leader of them all.
She looked up at him and he gave her a smile, then asked if she was hungry. She nodded and he lead her to a cafe at the end of the block, there they sat in the corner and ordered. She ordered fries while Hiten order fries and a burger, it wasn't long before their meal was set before them and they ate in silence.
What was it that made her trust this person, even though he seemed like someone anyone would trust easily. But she let it slip from her mind as she slowly ate her fries, he was done before her and just sat there leaning back watching her eat. As she finished he got up and walked to the front and paid for everything.
She stood and slowly followed him out, as they walked back the way they came, Souten ran up to them. "Bankotsu wants to see the girl named Kagome!"
She looked at Hiten who nodded and he walked towards the building in which she had all seen them at when she first met them. He walked up the stairs and looked down at her, she had stopped, wondering if she should even follow him in. After a few minutes she took a step forward and Hiten offer her his hand. She took it and the two walked into the building, where she would meet this Bankotsu.
