Naomi had received mail from Sango regularly Onigumo made her reply to Sango ending the relationship in the letter.

~ Letter to Sango ~

Dear Sango,

I am happy we were friends, but we can't be any more I don't wish to be a burden on you. I am always getting sick Onigumo has been kind enough to offer to allow me to stay. I will never be out of his debt, please don't burden yourself with my problems. You deserve a happy life with a family and a husband I will only keep you from achieving that. I wish you all the happiness in the world.

Love Naomi

~ End Letter ~

Sango was both hurt and surprised by the letter but what puzzled her more was that over the past ten years she kept getting the same message every time she wrote to Naomi. She knew something was wrong, but she didn't have enough for the police to get involved. So she had saved up for the past nine years. Hopefully, it was sufficient to hire a private detective she had to know what had become of her friend. She stepped into the office asking, "Miroku?"

A stunningly handsome young man came out saying, "Ah a lovely woman in trouble how may I help you?"

Sango smiled at the charming man saying, "I'm not in trouble I believe my friend Naomi is. I left the house ten years ago. I tried contacting her I have all her letters, and they are all the same. Miroku asked, "Do you know the phone number of where she is?"

Sango nodded Miroku smiled saying, "I like to save my clients their money when I can. I will place the call on speaker and if I feel it warrants looking into I will take the case. Does this seem fair to you?"

Sango smiled replying, "Yes I am so grateful they laughed me out of the police station when I asked what I could do."

Miroku put it on speaker as Sango dialed the number Onigumo answered the phone. Sango asked, "May I please speak to Naomi it's important."

Onigumo grumbled they could hear some yelling in the background before Naomi picked up the phone saying, "Sango please you need to stop trying to contact me it upsets Onigumo. He feels you're a bad influence and gets so angry that you won't stop. He's going to file a restraining order to keep you away he feels your obsessed."

Miroku was shocked it was evident Naomi was trying to protect Sango concern was clearly in her voice the one that seemed to have the issue was Onigumo. Miroku whispered in Sango's ear. Sango spoke asking, "Naomi can Onigumo hear what I say?"

Naomi replied, "No Sango you need to let me go it's for your own good."

Miroku was positive something was up now he asked, "Naomi please if you can are you being held, prisoner? Do you need help Sango here is worried sick about you? If you say no now, I will make sure she leaves you alone. However, if you say yes I will do what I can to help her help you. You must tell me the truth Naomi."

Naomi was shocked by the male's voice on the line Sango was a good dear friend it touched her heart she cared so much for her. Naomi answered, "Yes I am glad you see what I am saying I will let Onigumo know you won't try contacting again. I'd hate for him to drag you to court. Goodbye, Sango."

The line went dead Miroku looked at Sango saying, "My dear it seems your friend is in big trouble and is desperately trying to keep you safe. This is a dangerous situation I will not kid you Sango Onigumo is a very powerful man he can file a restraining order and hire people to make you disappear."

Sango pounded her fist on the desk yelling, "Will you help me help her or do I have to go somewhere else?"

Miroku moved over to her saying, "I will help you but first I will have to get my connections get all the information they can about the two of them." His hand slipped to her bottom before grabbing her hand saying "Will you bear my children?"

She rolled her eyes before saying, "Control your hentai hand and rescue my friend. Then I will consider dating you."

Miroku smiled held his hand out, and once she shook it, he kissed her hand saying, "We have a deal."

Miroku went straight to work he was so going to get his date with the lovely Sango. He spent a year compiling information about Onigumo but no matter how hard he searched he found out little about Naomi he couldn't even find medical records at any of the hospitals.

He picked up the phone and called Koga saying, "I have a male golden Inu demon holding a female demoness prisoner. I need your help along with the councils help to rescue her from Onigumo." Koga growled out, "I will contact the council I will need you to fax me a copy of the information you have compiled."

Miroku quickly went to work faxing all the information along with the suspicious expenses written to cash. Koga got the information and said, "I will get back to you in a week don't do anything until I have heard from the council."

Miroku replied, "I will wait for word from you."

Koga took the information to the council after spending some time reviewing the information the council decided the matter was worth looking into first they'd have to go to Onigumo's home and talk to both. They left with Koga to Onigumo's home upon arriving they were pleasantly surprised to see Naomi she didn't look good but she didn't look bad either.

The council asked, "Onigumo where is Naomi's family?" He replied, "I am her family she is to be my mate."

Even Koga could tell it was a lie he turned to Naomi asking her, "Do you know where your family is?" Naomi replied, "I remember nothing before I woke to Onigumo and Sango 14 years ago."
