"Damn it, Inuyasha, wake up!" Miroku grumbled as he pushed and pulled the sleeping halfbreed. weren't demons supposed to always be on the alert? When Inuyasha only grumbled out some inaudible noises, Miroku cursed again and began to move him around some more. This time with much more force.
"What?" Inuyasha bellowed as he rose from his goose feathered mattress.
"Finally." Miroku said with a tone of long suffering.
"Quiet Monk. I finally got some sleep and you cant expect me to be-"
"In the best of moods. Yeah, I know. But this cant wait."
"Really?" Inuyasha relied as he yawned.
"Don't be sarcastic. I'm serious." Miroku's blue eyes narrowed at his friend as he waited for the white haired young man to wake up completely.
"Fine, what is it?" Inuyasha reluctantly gave in.
"I got some very interesting updates." There was a wicked gleam in the infamous monk's eyes.
"About the Sieloma's?" Inuyasha asked, all traces of sleep gone at the idea of finally being on the road to end this miserable mystery.
"No."
"Then what?" Annoyance raced through Inuyasha as he glared up at his friend. There was nothing else that could be important to him. Well, he could be forgetting something since he'd barely woken up and his brain was still not functioning as it should.
"Well . . . "
"Stop hedging, Miroku, or you'll find yourself in deep shit soon."
"Geez, fine. It's about your brother."
"My . . . ?" What the hell could be so important?
" . . .And your sister-in-law." Miroku added when Inuyasha gave him a confused look.
"Did that fuck face hurt her again?" Great. Just what I need. His asshole of a brother fucking everything up now and, consequently, losing the title. A title that would them be transferred to him. And that was something he did not particularly want. He had more than enough on his plate, than you very-fucking-much.
"Eh? No, quite the contrary actually. Looks like your brother's mating again."
"Inuyasha. Got a lead you should go check out." Kagura said as she walked through the open door.
"We're talking, Kagura. So please come back at another time." Miroku said, never taking his eyes off of the dumbfounded Inuyasha.
"To bad. Inuyasha remember - Inuyasha!"
Inuyasha blinked and turned to stare at the beautiful demoness before him. "Huh?" His brother mating . . .again?
"Remember you said something to me to the effect that you were going to look for the Sieloma's through the schools?"
"Hmmm?" His brother . . .
"Well it occurred to me that you should not look for Sielomas. Instead you should try to locate the families with surnames like those of the Sieloma individual branches. I mean if they've avoided detection by the paparazzi it must be because don't flaunt themselves. So you should check families-are you paying attention?"
"No." Miroku volunteered.
"Kagura fixed the perverted monk with a cold glare, "and would you happen to know why he's like this?"
"Ugh, well . . ."
"You're not going to tell me, are you?"
"Sorry cant"
Kagura turned to contemplate the dazed half breed. What would be so interesting that it would freeze Inuyasha in . . . amazement? Disbelief?
Well, no matter, what she had to say was more important than anything the pervert had said. So, without further ado, Kagura pulled her hand back and-
"Owww!" Inuyasha hastily covered his injured cheek and glared at the demoness to death. Or tried to anyway. His evil gaze seemed to have no effect on the equally pissed off woman before him.
"When I talk you listen, got it?"
"Like hell I'm going to-epp!" Inuyasha quickly hid behind his laughing second. Kagura had one mean right hook-err, slap.
"Check all the families with surnames like those of the Sieloma branches and-"
"Kagura, this shows how little attention you pay us. We're way ahead of you." Miroku informed, still smirking from the earlier show.
"Oh, really?"
"Yep. Not only do we know the surnames, but we also know that the Sieloma's are all here during some time of the year. Apparently at this moment in time, those that are present are either the Makino or the Higurashi. The Higurashi are, supposedly, closer and easier to contact. They appear to own a shrine. Which one, we don't know. So Inuyasha was going to go ask the principal from Shippo's school if he could find out how many Higurashi owned a shrine and resided close by. That should get us somewhere fast, don't you think?"
"Yes, well . . ."
Inuyasha and Miroku exchanged a glance before raising a single brow each and asking "yes?", letting the word linger as they gloried the fact that for once they got something done before the terrifying Kagura.
"What are you fools waiting for!!!"
Inuyasha and Miroku found themselves obeying her as fast as they could. Kagura was, plain a simple, a mean lady with a meaner right fist . . . slap.
And that was how Inuyasha found himself outside of the principals office a scant twenty minutes later. Miroku had been put by a furious Kagura to start the research all over again so Inuyasha had been forced to come alone. That didn't help matters much, since Miroku was the one that could negotiate, but oh well, terrorizing also worked.
As he readied to open the door, Inuyasha hesitated. Shouts were coming from the other side of the door. Angry shouts, by the sound of it.
An angry female was in there.
What the hell was going on?
Inuyasha frowned as he contemplated leaving and coming back some time later. No, he was impatient to get that information. Well, then, to bad. What ever problem was brewing he didn't care. He needed answers and he wanted them now.
And with that decided, Inuyasha opened the door and asked in a voice that would carry over the shouting, "What's with all the shouting?"
0.0 ... 0.0 ... 0.0
Killing never solved anything. It just caused more problems. So, Kagome Higurashi, miko, and the elite agent know as Elid did not kill. No matter how trying the situation was.
Or so she tried to remind herself as she sat in front of the principal of Shinozaki junior high, her brother's school. But, really, a person could only take so much bullshit. And it was all bullshit. How the hell did the principal know nothing regarding the fight in which one Souta Higurashi was involved? It was utterly impossible. Considering he had to have been the one to call the officer. Yet he claimed otherwise though she knew better. However, no matter how she probed he said absolutely nothing and it all got her nowhere fast.
Hell, how could a simple, simple interrogation provide her with nothing? Hmm, maybe this was why she had never been assigned any interrogations in the span of her career. apparently she had no knack for them. Then again this was no interrogation it was a damn covert mission.
Or maybe it wasn't her, just maybe it could be the fact that to this irritating, little, bald man she was a nobody. Usually that was a good thing. But she was finding out that it had major setbacks. She was powerless, seemed the most important. And that was an almost insurmountable wall she would and could not send to wall heaven because in the future the damnable wall could provide them with protection against outsiders or, annoyingly, the paparazzi.
But that left a problem.
how was she to find out why her brother was the only one mentioned in the report? She could easily ask her brother who he'd fought and why or get the information from other students but that still didn't solve anything.
So here she went down the same sorry line of inquiry again. And with the same stupid attitude. Only with much less patience behind it.
"Sir, but why cant you tell me what happen exactly?" Kagome tried once more using the pleading tome she'd been using this entire time.
"Because that's confidential, girl. The only place the names matter is on the report files. Now, could you please leave? I have more important matters to attend to then you." Mr. Takayama said and put action to words.
"But . . ."
"Leave, Miss Higurashi."
Kagome bit her lip and did what she was told. Well, she stood up anyway. She was not leaving until she knew what she'd come to find out. "Sir, could you please tell me-"
"No!" The principal vehemently refused as he stood up too.
"Oh, come on!"
"No! How many times do I have to tell you that?"
"What are you hiding?" Kagome finally asked.
"You do not need to know anything girl. Besides, what can a slip of a girl do against the Tai-"
Tai? Tai-what? Taiku? Taiken? Taishen? . . . Taisho???
"Sir, don't tell me you're covering someone from the Taisho clan?" Holy mother of . . .
The principal sneered and looked more ugly then before. "And what if I am? Do you see how impossible it would be for you to do anything about this? Give up girl. be happy your brother only got a minor's misdemeanor."
Kagome said nothing. Truly, had she been who this man thought her to be, she would have been powerless and while she could do nothing publicly from now on, this was not the end. Her brother would not be sentenced alone (or at all) when she was done. She took a deep breath and would have exited the sparsely furnished office if she hadn't caught the bastard smirking.
Now that was to much.
"Takayama, with all do respect," She began in a dulcet tone as she faced the man again. Sure, she was publicly defenseless, but that did not mean she was physically useless either. Taking a deep breath, Kagome lifted her small light purse and whacked the shorter man upside the head as she let loose with the frustration she was usually forced to withhold and control. "How dare you let this happen? your a god-damned principal! Favoring students is a no-"
"Stop! Help!!!"
"No!!! Who does that fucking family think they are? I will not forgive this, you hear!"
Kagome sopped. How dare he! She still wanted to beat the man up some more, but hitting him with the purse wasn't doing anything but exhausting her.
"Are you daft! I will have you escorted of these premises immediately!"
"Why you-"
"What's with all the shouting?"
Kagome spun around and came face to face with the newcomer and nearly suffered a heart attack. There, standing in the opened doorway was the man she'd fought yesterday. Inuyasha Taisho, the man partially responsible for the mess her brother was in.
