DN Angel crossover Inuyasha

Chpt5: Familiarity and Meeting

Kagome POV

Hearing the sound of my alarm going off at the top of its lung, I hit the alarm clock to shut off the sound. The sun light was now streaming true my window, while I sat up on the bed with the support of my left hand and rub the sleepiness out of my eyes with my other free hand. Looking at the time, I let out a groan and fell back onto my bed.

The sound of the door opening with a click could be heard. I can already sense who is standing by my doorway. The door was already locked in the first place, ad the only two person who would open her door without my permission is non other then the infamous thief Dark.

"My, my, you are not an early morning person are you now." Dark said out amusingly from my doorway.

Without looking, I grab the closest thing to me, which is my alarm clock and hurled it straight at Dark's head. Dark caught the clock in his hand and shook his head lightly, amused my behaviour.

"Tsk…Tsk…What is the point of wasting a perfectly good clock just to throw it at my head." Dark said out amusingly.

Knowing that I will never get a single peace of going back to sleep for the next half an hour, I got out of bed and walked over the Dark. I smiled sweetly at Dark, "Dark it is only nine in the morning. If it would help, you can go and disturb Daisuke he is running late for school already as you know. Maybe, you should fly him there." I said and not waiting for his reply I closed the door in his face.

Walking to the vanity mirror in the room, I took up the comb and started brushing it through my hair. When I am satisfied at the soft silkiness of my hair, I walked to the bathroom connecting to my room and took a shower. I changed into the clothes that I am wearing to go and meet with my business partner later in the afternoon to seal the deal.

Walking down the stairs, I am glad that at least Dark did not try to open my room door again just now when I was taking my shower. Walking over to the table, I picked up a piece of toast with butter spread on it and started to eat it while at the same time pouring myself a glass of orange juice.

By the time I was almost done with my glass of orange juice, I heard Dark coming in. He sounded highly happy about something. Taking this as a good sign that he would not be bothering me for the whole of today, I ignored his happiness totally. Walking over to the sofa, I plopped down onto the sofa and switch on the television to watch any shows that are interesting. The sound of Dark's footstep slowly disappeared into the kitchen which was soon to be heard again when he started to walk in my direction and sat next to me, draping one of his hands behind me. The feeling was neutral. I continued to ignore him and jump certain channels only stopping at a channel which is Nickelodeon.

The show called Spongebob Squarepants was on and I watched that, laughing along at certain parts of the show. I could feel Dark eyes watching me from the side even though he is trying to appear as though he is not watching me.

"Still a child princess?" Dark asked in a teasing manner.

"You are watching this show too, aren't you Dark?" I replied in a mocking tone. Somehow, this did not bother Dark in the least, or not he is feigning he did not hear what I just said. Looking at the time, I stood up and threw the remote control at Dark.

"I have to go now, meeting a business partner at a café." I said reading his thoughts. I could shock on Dark's face when I replied, however it quickly disappeared and was replaced by a grin. Ignoring him, I went up to my room and put my money into my pocket. When I walked out to the door, I saw Dark opening it for me and bidding me a goodbye with a charming smile of his. I am just glad that unlike other girls, I would not be swooning over the smile or falling head over heels with him.

The fresh air I smelled upon taking my deep breath was relaxing and calming. Apart from that, there is other scent that bombarded my scent. The scent of various types of exotic flowers, the freshly cooked food and the scent of the ocean mixed with its saltiness. The sky was a nice shade of blue with clouds on them, the sun shining brightly down upon this island as though there had never been any bad encounters of natural disasters or weathers.

Checking my watch, I quicken my pace and headed to the café. It was crowded due to the lunch time break. All the tables were occupied with people sitting, when I noticed a male figure, as it seems, being the only person in formal attire sitting there while sipping on his own cup of coffee. There is something oddly disturbing about him from the back, something very familiar as though I had known him once upon a time.

Walking towards his table quickly, I pulled out a chair and sat down.

"I am so sorry to have kept you waiting for some time Mr…"

"Shiro Kitsune, it has been a long time Kagome to finally see you again in person." He said in amusement.

When I took a good long look at him, I realized that he is Shippo's father. It has been years to me, even though it has been a few months since I last saw him. He is well build and tall. His hair is in the colour of black which seems as though they were brown in colour whenever the sun shines against his hair. His eyes still held the same familiar warmth and affection that a father would have shown to his own daughter.

The Kitsune family from what I have gathered from Shiro, are all doing well, and are living in Azumano currently with the house which they had just bought above the hill near the sea. He continued to tell me that Shippo misses me dearly and have been behaving himself for the past few months, ever since their revival from the dead thanks to Midoriko who gave them another chance to be a happy family again. He then continued to fill me in on the company he had setup not long ago which is now one of the fastest leading companies.

We spent the next few hours or so filling each other on what has been going on in our lives. We had of course sealed the deal first before we went onto lighter topics to talk about. The deal between Shiro's company and together with Sesshoumaru and mine was done rather swiftly. The next few hours spent were both of good humour and recollection of the past we had. We talked for a long period of time, not noticing the many people who have been dining at the café for lunch, left one by one. Soon, leaving Shiro and me together with some other people sitting there to relax and have a break.

"I guess I will be seeing you soon, very soon indeed Kagome. Shippo would like of you to come and visit us when you are free. Till then, see you around." Shiro said while he got up and left.

"Seeing me very soon? What do you mean Shiro-san?" I asked knowing that he can hear me just as well.

The reply I got in return was the light laugh that the wind had bore to me, giving the answer that I was to go and find out myself. Sighing, I sat there outside the café a little longer thinking about what he meant before I took a long stroll back home.

The sky is now starting to be stained in a pink and orange glow. The sun setting into the sea, as it seems, surrounding it in a reddish orange glow. The scene was simply breathtaking itself. I remember the last time where I had the time in the whole world over in the Feudal Era to enjoy the scenery and see whatever things that nature has to offer up to us. However, the air is not as pure as it was back in the Feudal Era. The air now in the city of Japan, is now polluted by all the factory and industrial waste that they produce each month. It came to me as a surprise when I first smelt the air in Azumano when I first step here. It is much cleaner and almost pure here like back in the Feudal Era.

When I had drawn my mind away from my thoughts, I continued my stroll down the lane the familiar aura of someone, of course came to my attention. However I relaxed when I knew who the aura belonged to. Walking towards the beach, I sat on the wall separating the beach from the road of Azumano.

"Dark you should really show yourself. You have been following me ever since I left that café." I said out to him in an amused tone, never once taking my eyes off of the sight in front of me.

The sound of rustling wings and his light landing on the ground, told me that Dark is now standing behind of me.

"Now I wouldn't say that I have been following you since you left the café Kagome."

I was rather surprised that he had now called me by my name instead of calling me Princess. He somehow reminds me of a playful kitten who just wants attention and someone to play with.

"You know this is one of those moments that you have called me by my name instead of calling me princess." I said out to him with amusement and a hint of tiredness lacing into my voice. There was a pause which seemed to last an eternity to me.

"Miss me calling you princess, princess?" Dark said with amusement while a smirk grace his face as he continued to look at me from behind.

The sun is now starting to disappear over the horizon, and the stars and the moon are now starting to appear in the sky as if by magic. The nature holds a great many wonders, and I still could not seem to comprehend most of them even though I have been living for more than 500 years already. Sometimes, it just seem to puzzle me for a while but I got over it as quickly as the though came floating up in my mind.

"I suggest that it would be best that we leave home now princess, or else Emiko will be making a lot of fuss about this." Dark said while he held out his arm for me like what a gentleman would do.

I laughed lightly at his formal way of speaking and stood there on the wall. Giving a last look out towards the sea, I saw the last ray of sun dipping into the horizon. The sensation of my wings starting to appear on my back, made me remember on how happy I was when I first saw my wings in its full glory. My wings flexed and relaxed while I hovered a moment before kicking off into the night sky.

"See you back at home Dark. That is if you are done with you staring." I said with much amusement. I let out a light chuckle as I felt the cool night wind gentle caress on my face. It felt wonderful to fly in the air and have no one stopping you or be in fear that someone might have seen you. When I was flying, I heard someone calling me. Turning to my side, I saw Dark there giving me a smirk before he went ahead of me back to the house. Taking on the silent challenge, I used my demon speed and caught up with Dark and passed by him, landing safely on the balcony of my room. I turned around and smirked at him, indicating that I have won this game. Dark landed lightly on my balcony rail and smiled with amusement in his eyes shining so brightly. Before he could say anything, I pushed him off the rail and made a tank of water appear below of him.

Satisfied upon hearing that he had dropped into the tank of water with a watery splash, I walked back into my room and headed to my bathroom to take a quick bath before going down for dinner.

When I got down to the dinning room, I could see a very wet Dark sitting on a chair, trying to dry his hair with a towel. Aunt Emiko is now starting to fuss over him about being wet and went about to make him a glass of warm drink so that he would not catch a cold. No matter how Dark has tried to tell her that he is fine and reminded her the various job which required him to dive underwater, she still say that it is best to take precautions so that he would not get sick. Finding this all rather hilarious, I could not help but let a peel of laughter out. Dark is now giving me a half hearted glare as if to say that he will have his revenge. I return a look which told him to try his best.

By the time dinner is served, Dark had already changed into something dry. During dinner, Jii-chan is sited at the head of the able while Aunt Emiko took the sit to his right and I sat beside of her while Daisuke took the sit of Jii-chans' left and Dark sat next to him who is directly opposite of me. Dinner is a lively affair while Dark would throw in a few comments every now and then. Whiz is now sitting on the table and eating his plate of food happily.

"Oh! Kagome, your mother called you this afternoon to ask how you have been. I told her all about your time here, and she seems happy about it, especially when I mentioned about Dark. She asked a lot of question about Dark though." Aunt Emiko said out thoughtfully at her last sentence while looking at me and Dark.

Dark being the guy that he is has a smile plastered on his face. He looked at me while I gave him a glare that clearly brought the message over to him that he had better wipe that stupid smile off his face or else I would do it for him.

"Thanks for telling me that Aunt Emiko, I will be sure to call my mom up tonight to tell her myself." I said to her rather too sweetly.

Jii-chan and Daisuke were now both looking at me in a rather odd manner and their thoughts echo the same word 'Scary' out. I know that my face is somehow mixed with irritation and great annoyance all directed to Dark, who seem to have ignored the warning that I am giving him. Aunt Emiko on the other hand, is oblivious to what was happening silently between Dark and I. Only Jii-chan and Daisuke both seem to know what is happening.

Jii-chan and Daisuke are the first to finish off their dinner quickly and left the table to go to the living room and sat down to watch the television with the usual news of the day. I quickly finished my dinner and help Aunt Emiko bring the dishes to wash at the sink in attempt to get away from Dark as fast as possible before I really wipe that smile off his face.

Aunt Emiko was rather grateful to me helping her wash the dishes while she went out and spent the remaining time with Jii-chan and Daisuke. Dark who has just finished his own side of the dinner, decided to come in and help me with the dishes. He had that stupid smile on his face the whole while. It gave me this strong urge to just walk up to him and place a bar of soap in his mouth. Of course it would never accomplish much though the idea of dumping him in a tank of piranhas is very tempting. I was just washing the last plate when Dark came behind of me and slides a hand around my waist.

"I didn't know you have taken such a liking to me my princess." He said silkily amusement are definitely in that tone of his which made me want to throw him into a tank of man eating starving sharks instead of over a tank of piranhas.

"I am NOT YOUR princess. I am NOT a property that you own, and I do NOT have a liking for you Dark." I said it through my tightly clenched teeth with anger seeping into my voice, though he seemed to be oblivious to it.

I finished cleaning the last dish quickly and place them back to where they belong, all the while, Dark had never let go of the arm that he had slide around my waist. I felt my claws appearing instead of the normal fingernails of a human. With a quick swipe of my claw lightly against the offending arm that is around my waist, I made my way out of the room when he had let go of me. I heard Dark letting out a sigh before he walked to the sink and washed the few claw scratch that I had given him.

"He should be glad that at least there isn't any poison in my claws when I swiped at him." I told to no one in particular mentally.

When I reached my room, I picked up the phone and called my mother in Tokyo, Japan. On the first ring, she picked up the phone and was glad to hear my voice. The next thing I know, she is now asking me all sort of question with regards to Dark. Rubbing my temple, I started telling her that he is no one special and that I had merely given him a body of his own to use rather than always sharing the same body as his tamer.

I then told her that I had met up with Shiro, Shippo's father on a meeting today. When I told her about the part which he had mention about meeting me sooner than I had expected, my mom then sound as though they know something that I do not know of.

"Mom, what did he mean by he would be seeing me very soon? What is going on?" I asked her in a rather confused manner.

"Oh I have to go now Kagome, I think I hear your Jii-chan calling me." My mom said out in a rather hasty manner.

"I am?" I could hear Jii-chan replying.

"Yes you are Jii-chan, you wanted me to help you in the clearing in your storage room of artifacts. Well I have to go now dear, it is going to be rather busy. Do call me when you have the time again, bye and be good." My mom said and the line was cut off instantly.

"She is definitely hiding something. I guess I will have to find out myself sooner or later." I said to myself sighing as I switched on my laptop and started to send a report back to Sesshy about the deal that we have sealed.

The reply I got back from Sesshy is very fast. His reply is that I have been able to get a good deal sealed and then the bad news came when he told me that I am to go to a formal function where the owners and their sons of various companies are going to be there. I let out a loud groan and slumped down on my chair as to what am I going to do when I go to that formal function.

I remember what happened the last time when I went to that formal function, Sesshy was surrounded by all the female who look like sluts and whores, and the guys flocking over to me. I had to spend the evening with Sesshy running away from the men and the women going after us. In the end, we spent the whole night trying to avoid any of the men and women who are after us and with much annoyance too. Shaking my head in that memory, I type a quick reply back to Sesshy saying that I would be there and looking forward to seeing him again.

Giving a last sigh, I flopped down on my bed and fell right asleep dreaming about the upcoming function that is going to take place in a few days from now.
