Author Says: Woohoo! Chapter 31! So here's the chapter Inuyasha and Kagome find out what really happened.
--
Inuyasha approached the 'front desk' in the dingy prison.
"Can I speak to detective Toyama?" asked Inuyasha, looking at the officer who was pigging out on a donut.
"Sure kid, wait here." said the donut-eating officer, while picking up the phone, and paging the detective.
After a few minutes of waiting, a man in his 40's walked up to the couple, who was sitting on brown chairs.
"Nice to see you again Mr. Takashi." said the man.
"Oh, hey detective." greeted Inuyasha.
"So what brings you here?" asked the man, eager to get it over with.
"I came here to ask what happened that night you found Kikyo's car in the river. I want every detail there is, because she's back. I saw her 2 days ago. We even met up for lunch." said the hanyou.
"Okay, follow me to my office." agreed the detective.
Kagome just followed Inuyasha and the detective, making sure not to look at the donut-eating pigs. One police officer even winked at her which made her shudder, and also made her walk faster, immediately catching up with Inuyasha, who seemed to forget her for a second. Inuyasha just grinned at Kagome and held her hand, that was enough to make the miko feel safe again.
The detective opened the door for the couple and let them in first.
"Thank you." Kagome said politely.
"Your wel-" the detective stopped when he saw the girl. The girl freakishly looked like Kikyo, but this girl was polite, not bitchy, this girl was nice, while Kikyo was mean. The detective looked at Inuyasha for some answers and nodded at the girl.
"I know, believe me. The first time I saw her, I had a flashback." admitted Inuyasha, who saw the look on the detective's face.
The detective produced a nervous chuckle, then looked at the couple one more time, before sifting through his filing cabinets. He would steal a glance at the girl once in a while, finding it very freaky that Inuyasha would choose to go out with a girl who looked like his 'undead' ex-fiancée.
"So something fishy's going on. A few years back, you remember the case that I gave you right? When I asked you to find Kikyo, and you said you never found her. And yet she's alive and well. I just don't get it, I feel like I'm missing something here." declared Inuyasha.
"Okay, this is what really happened. That night they found Kikyo on the riverbank, shivering. She paid the policemen that were on that case to shut up and tell me that they just found her car, but no her. Before you say, ' If you knew this all along, then why the hell didn't you tell me?' I didn't tell you because if I did, you would be inside your house, holding a grudge against her, or blaming yourself. And trust me you don't want to go through that." added the detective.
Inuyasha gave the detective an understanding look, he really didn't want to feel that way against Kikyo, and if not because of that, he wouldn't have moved on and met Kagome. And if he didn't meet Kagome, he would still be the guy who would be still hung up on a "dead" fiancée, he should indeed thank Kikyo, very much.
Kagome couldn't help but think that Mr. Tayoma. Was right somehow. Is she really feeling anger towards Hojo because he didn't suffer? Or is it because she still had some feelings for him, and now that that whore that broke up her and Hojo's relationship was back? But on the other hand, if not for that stinking whore bag, she wouldn't have met Inuyasha, who as of now holds the key to her heart.
"Thanks, that's all I needed to hear." Kagome heard Inuyasha say.
"Your welcome. Glad I could be of any help." smiled detective Toyama.
Inuyasha lead Kagome out of the detective's office, lightly putting his right hand around her waist and with the same hand held Kagome's right hand. Kagome looked up at him and smiled, when the hanyou looked down on her she blushed slightly and suddenly found interest on her shoes. The hanyou just smiled and thought, 'those are one of the things that make her so special.'
"Hey Kagome, I need to go get something out of Miroku's place. You okay with that?" asked Inuyasha.
"Yeah, sure. I can sacrifice time for you." smiled Kagome.
"This is exactly why I love you." kissed Inuyasha.
Inuyasha sped off towards Miroku's house, which Kagome has never seen before.
