SAVING ME

CHAPTER 42 – Unfinished Business

Jakotsu licked the blood at his lip, looking down at his body; the nude man was covered with drying blood. Sesshomaru pushed away from the wall, his handsome face an emotionless mask. Jakotsu turned lazy eyes to look towards him, a smirk on his thin lips.

"Are you satisfied?" he asked with a smug expression, he really liked this silver haired man. Had Sesshomaru been any less skilled and not the son of the famous InuTaisho Takahashi, he may have attempted to subject the male to his sadistic fantasies…but there was that high chance he would die, and that was not worth the risk, he thought with a smile.

"How long did he last?" Sesshomaru asked, ignoring his question and Jakotsu pouted, walking over to a chair to retrieve his clothes.

"He only died a few minutes ago…the moment you walked in actually. The longest I've ever had, I'll remember this one for a while." said the assassin with a smile. Sesshomaru snorted and walked over to the decapitated body of his nemesis; he was undoubtedly…dead. Sesshomaru turned and walked away, satisfied. They had done all they could to keep the Police at bay, now, the law would retrieve the long-dead, rotting bodies of the Yazuka men, assuming it had been the work of other Yakuza lords.

Later, Sesshomaru found himself at another location, a few miles away from the Hospital and very close to his old apartment.

He heard rummaging and cursing as he entered the building, ignoring the closed sign on the door. It seemed as though someone was hastily packing, and he smirked at the thought, pushing the half open door so it creaked as it swung open, revealing the wide eyed face of Dr. Kagura Onigumo.

She gasped and took a step back, away from him, as he entered the room.

"Did you think I would let you get away with what you did to Rin?" he asked coldly, and she took some more steps back, until she came up against the wall of her office, while he stepped towards her.

"…Please I'm pregnant…" she whispered and he paused.

"Did you think of Rin's child when you betrayed her to Koga? What about your Hippocratic Oath?" he demanded snarled really and Kagura jumped, hoping, praying this was only about Rin but Sesshomaru's eyes became hooded.

"You were the one who helped him…when he cut Daisuke from Kikyo's body!" Sesshomaru spat and Kagura's eyes filled with tears.

"I always loved him! But he loved that Bitch Kikyo instead of me, always! But I was supposed to be infertile and he began to want a heir!" She screamed then gave a crazed laugh.

"But you're pregnant now aren't you?" Sesshomaru stepped back.

"Your lover is dead. And once your Medical License is revoked you won't have thing to live for will you? I suggest you find a hole in the darkest, deepest region of the planet…a place where the Takahashi name has no power because if I ever see your face again…you are dead!" spat Sesshomaru before he turned and left the woman who sank to the floor.

Sesshomaru smiled; No such place existed.

A/N: Sesshomaru and Rin's chapters (41 and 42) were happening simultaneously. Now the next chapter is titled "Our Family", it's a bit longer than the regular chapter. Thanks for all the reviews everyone, even though it didn't reach the 205 reviews I will put up one extra character for almost getting there.

The hippocratic oath: An oath taken by Doctors and other Healthcare professions whereby they agree to practice medicine ethically and uphold certain ethical standards such as a patient's right to confidentiality.
