Recap-----

"Put your hands up and no one gets hurt!!" the ningen shouted, but his voice was quavering.

Sesshomaru almost snorted. Put his hands up?? What an extremely baka idea. He could kill a youkai with a single, deadly glare if he wished. He remained unmoving.

"I'll shoot!! This is your last warning!!!" Yelled the ningen.

Still, Sesshomaru did not respond. Suddenly, a large, echoing sound rebounded into the mountains at the same time Sesshomaru felt a piercing pain on his left shoulder, and a bit of his clothes ripped off, exposing the part where he'd been shot. Glancing at it, Sesshomaru saw that is was already healing. He turned his attention to the officers now, really annoyed. The other ningens were all staring in shock at Sesshomaru's abilities.

Officer Smith kept on switching his eyes from Officer Goldstein's dead body to the thing that had killed him.

What is this creature?!!

Now-----

What is going on?

Sesshomaru stood surrounded by many ningens dressed similarly in black uniforms. One was lying on the floor. When the next sunrise hit him, it'd be looking at two bloody pieces.

But if the ningens thought Sesshomaru was calm, they were wrong. Regardless of his empty expression, Sesshomaru was beginning to feel a bit uneasy. In his time, there had been only rifles. However... is this the future? Sesshomaru finally came to a conclusion. That small, black weapon caused about as much damage as a rifle. Was this a dream? Or something else? Suddenly, the anxious taiyoukai caught a sniff of gunpowder at the same time as blackout.

-----

An enclosed space.

That was the first thing Sesshomaru felt and scented when he regained consciousness. But he pretended to still be knocked out when he heard ningen voices talking.

"They said he's something new to our world."

"An alien perhaps?"

"Hai, that's most likely."

Pause.

"How do you know? He looks like a regular human to me, aside from all his clothes, hair, and markings."

Sesshomaru gritted his teeth inwardly. How dare these filthy ningens compare him, the great taiyoukai of the West, to their own, lowly, insect race!!

"You haven't heard the news yet. They say he killed a police officer with a sort of light whip that just came out of his fingers, and he survived a bullet shot in his shoulder! That happened yesterday. But luckily, we managed to get him unconscious by getting about thirty police officers to shoot him at the same time."

So those ningens in black uniforms were police officers. The blackout had been thirty bullet shots in him. And this was one day after he'd came into this strange world. Sesshomaru stored all that information away for later use. Right now, the ningens were leaving, still chatting about him, but that wasn't important anymore. Sesshomaru finally opened his eyes two minutes after he'd resurfaced.

He was in a tube made of a strange material with a hole that could fit his hand in so he wouldn't suffocate. There was also a lock, and as Sesshomaru touched both the lock and his confinement, he knew his yoki whip wouldn't get him out by destroying the tube. However, he could still do another way. Lashing out his whip in a straight line, he carefully wrapped it around the key laying on a laboratory desk, making sure not to let out too much acid that would burn his escape key. He freed himself, and stepped out of this place to the outside world.

-----

Coca-cola. Theater. Public library.

What in the world are these?! Sesshomaru read off each sign, getting more confused. But that wasn't all. The smell and the sounds. For a taiyoukai like him with sensitive ears and a nose, this was enough to make him barf. But he didn't. He needed to find out more about where he was and how he could get back. Tearing his eyes from the signs because of a scream, Sesshomaru realized he was attracting many of the ningens' attention, especially his odd appearance. And again. That screaming, siren-like sound he'd heard on the first night when he'd met the police officers. Coming closer every second. This time though, he was ready. He wouldn't let those baka ningens confine him again.

-----

Officer Smith had been alerted. Ever since two days ago, he'd been trembling with fear at the strange creature that had appeared on the sidewalk and killed his boss. It would be hard to replace Officer Goldstein. But this time, he was ready. He wouldn't let the others down. Stepping out of his car, he froze at the sight of his worst and most terrifying nightmare. Sesshomaru. Officer Smith was the only one who knew this creature's name. But now, he was ready to tear onto Planet X while peeing in his pants. Iie, iie, iie. Kudasai, kami help me!!

The other police officers had also froze in their positions at the sight of another encounter with it. A crowd was beginning to gather, while the original ningens waited with baited breath as their eyes flickered from Sesshomaru's bared fangs to his iron claws and deadly, amber gaze. Officer Smith knew everyone was counting on him, and that made him take a step forward to Pluto. He was about to take a very shaky step forward when three voices rang out at the same time.

One was a clear, onnanoko's voice. Another was a croaky voice. And the last was a mature otokonoko's voice. They all cried out the same thing.

"Sesshomaru-sama!!"
