"Listen to me, you're a soldier now. If what you said is true back at the damn, then there's a good chance they'll go after Sam instead of you. He was supposed to be Sam's guardian, wasn't he?"
At Kagome's hesitant nod, Lennox continued.
"Then if you take the Cube, it may cause confusion and give us the time to get it out of here safely. There's a lot of people that are relying on this, and will die if we fail. Do you understand me?"
Kagome nodded again, and while Bee thought the plan to be rather well for being thought up of on the spot, it would leave Kagome undefended and out in the open.
Seeing as Kagome had no way out, Lennox moved towards Sam, who surprised them all with what he had to say.
"If Kagome has to go, I'm staying with Bee. Someone's gotta make sure he gets out of here in one piece." a quick glance at his lack of legs, Sam's lips twitched slightly. "Well..."
Kagome jumped down after Lennox allowed this only to turn and return to his men. She passed him the Cube for a moment to hold, and he curiously accepted it only to shift as she hugged Sam unexpectedly.
"You better make sure he's okay, you hear me? The both of you. Or you're not going to like what happens."
AN: It was a bit of touch and go this morning. But the internet is stable so I decided it best to update before it gets wonky on me again. I am glad to see that you're liking the little switch I did, of having Kagome take Sam's place. Even someone mentioning not minding being man handled by Lennox? Naughty, naughty. Anyways, read, enjoy, and review!
