Chapter 6

...

Glasses clinked together. Cheers of joy rang out. A trio of boys did the can-can with arms on each other's shoulders while drunkenly singing.

Kagome giggled at the show. They knew how celebrate for sure.

They had finished the car and just in time, the race was two days away.

"I guess none of you guys will be at school tomorrow," Kagome laughed.

"Nope," J.J. slurred happily. "Imma be sleeping off this hangover with a pitcher of water and a bottle of pain killers by my bed side."

Kagome smiled at that and stood up. "A toast! To finishing the car!"

The boys in the place cheered and put their drinks in the air before taking a long gulp.

"And to Sesshoumaru for helping us!"

They repeated the motion but she observed that a few people didn't cheer or drink. Kagome brushed it off.

Taking her seat again she turned to Sesshoumaru next to her.

"Having fun?" she asked.

"Hn." He eyed her glass of water. "You don't drink?"

She hid her face slightly. "Ah no. Can't hold my liquor."

To Kagome it wasn't a lie. There were just some things she couldn't do or else that would happen.

Sesshoumaru raised an eyebrow at her.

"Cheers! To little sister, for keeping us in line!" Yuta boasted.

The guys cheered.

"Have a drink Kagome!"

"Yeah you've earned it!"

Kagome put her hands up. "Ah, no thank you. I really can't," she protested kindly.

"Oh come on! Stop being so modest," Otoya sauntered over. "Here."

He shoved a glass to her lips and before she could push it away she could taste the beer go down her throat.

"Hey! Otoya what the fuck did you just do?" J.J. yelled in concern.

Kagome started to feel dizzy.

Oh no, she thought. Please not here. Not in front of Sesshoumaru.

"What?" Otoya asked. "She just took a sip of beer."

"Are you alright?"

The question was from Sesshoumaru.

No she wasn't alright. She was losing herself. Being pulled inward.

"Night night." The words escaped her mouth before her head fell to the table in a loud thud.

...

"Otoya I'm going to put my foot so far up your ass," J.J. threatened shoving past him to get to Kagome.

Sesshoumaru observed the unconscious girl. She really couldn't hold her liquor.

"Will she be ok?" Sesshoumaru asked.

J.J. looked at him and didn't seem how to answer. "I've only seen her drink once and it wasn't...pretty," he finished.

He nudged Kagome. "Hey Kagome. Are you alright?"

She started to stir and her head lifted from the table.

The whole crowd of boys watched as she started to giggle.

"Why'd the music stop?" she asked amused.

Sesshoumaru felt a bristle of shock at the sudden change of demeanor.

He watched Kagome grab a mug of beer and toss it back.

"Woo! Let's get this arty started!" She through her fist in the air.

The whole place cheered except for J.J. and Yuta.

"This is bad," J.J. murmured.

"Little sister has gone dark," Yuta agreed in concern.

"Hey! Bartender!" Kagome shouted. "Give me something stronger! I want to get wasted! Woo!" She laughed.

Her eye shifted to Sesshoumaru. "Hey there," she purred. "Wanna come play with me?" She lifted his chin with one finger.

Sesshoumaru froze at her actions. Her eye's turned seductive and dark. Her voice was tempting him.

The waiter put down a shot glass and Kagome lost interest in Sesshoumaru.

She tossed back the glass and slammed it down on the table.

A fast beat song came on and she stood up from her seat. She took long strides and grabbed the water demon by his neck tie.

"How bout a dance Aoi?" Kagome offered.

He smirked as Kagome pushed up against him.

"Oh no!" J.J. grabbed Kagome by the shoulders and moved her away from the water demon. "Kagome listen, you need to-"

"Loosen up J.J.!" she said with exasperation. "I haven't had fun in so long!"

She wiggled out of his grasp and observed Yuta coming to grab her. She ducked and jumped onto the bar counter starting to dance and sing along to the tune playing on the speakers.

Sesshoumaru had not the slightest idea what the hell was going on here. Kagome had gone from sweet and innocent to tempting and experienced with a few drops of liquor.

The boys from the garage along with the other attendees of the bar cheered on Kagome.

"Call Sango!" Yuta called to the twins who nodded and pulled out a cellphone in the crowd of people surrounding Kagome.

Through all the noise Sesshoumaru could faintly hear the bell on the door ring as more people entered. He turned around to see four people but he could separate the leader of the group. The proposed gang leader of the Spider's he had seen that day. Upon entering the building the leaders eyes immediately found Kagome and he smirked.

Sesshoumaru turned rigid.

As the song ended Kagome jumped down and sprinted through the crowd bowing as the clapped and whistled. Yuta, the twins, and J.J. lost sight of her in the loud moving crowd she had created.

Naraku, with followers right behind, met Kagome halfway. Sesshoumaru found himself stand up and moved closer to the scene.

Kagome stopped in front of him. "Naraku, what's a slime ball like you doing here?" she giggled in dark amusement.

Naraku smirked. "I like this side of you Kagome. Dangerous and sexy," he growled.

"I'm not that easy to catch," she proclaimed with a lick of her lips.

"Let's take a ride," he offered.

"Kagome! " A female voice shouted and bulldozed through the crowd.

She pushed passed Naraku and put her hands on Kagome's shoulders. She examined Kagome closely. "How much have you had to drink?"

"Not enough!" Kagome laughed.

Sango frowned. "You need to go home."

"I'll be more than happy to take her," Naraku offered looking Kagome up and down.

Sango whipped around with fire burning in her eyes.

"Over my dead body! You can get the hell out of here!" she yelled. "Kagome is not going anywhere with you," she spat.

Naraku put a hand of one of his members who moved forward. "She's not a threat," he told him.

"Come on Sango," Kagome whined. "Your killing my buzz. I want to go party some more! Naraku was going to give me a ride."

"Kagome I am taking you home," Sango said firmly and grabbed Kagome's arm to move towards the door.

Naraku's hand lashed out and grabbed Sango's arm roughly. "I suggest you let her do as she wishes," he seethed.

Sango spit in his face.

Naraku laughed darkly and whispered in her ear. Sango stood firm.

Sesshoumaru stepped forward and grabbed Naraku's wrist with pressure so his hand released the female. He met Naraku's dark, maroon colored eyes with icy gold.

"I will escort you," Sesshoumaru told Sango without looking away. He waited to see if Naraku would retaliate but he stood there with a smug smirk. Sesshoumaru felt the urge for a good fight but instead released Naraku.

"Nice seeing you too Sesshoumaru," Naraku greeted in humor.

Sesshoumaru didn't answer and walked behind Sango as she pushed Kagome through the loud crowd.

They made it out and Sango gave a sigh of relief. Kagome leaned on her shoulder with heavy lids mumbling something about partying.

Sango waved down a bright yellow taxi. Sesshoumaru held open the taxi door and Sango maneuvered Kagome inside. Sango hesitated to get in.

"Certain things set Kagome off. She changes. They call it a split personality," Sango explained. "Not everyone knows about it. However, they do know that she has a bad rep so they don't mess with her. Usually she stays the same, but occasionally..." Sango trailed off sadly. "Occasionally she switches."

Sesshoumaru nodded at the new information. Glad for an explanation.

He observed the sleeping female curled up in the backseat of the taxi.

This could explain how such an innocent lamb made it into a school full of wolves.

"Anyways, thanks for the help," Sango told him as she got into the taxi. "See you at school."

Sesshoumaru nodded and closed the door after her. He stood there and watched the taxi drive away with the dedicated best friend and the complicated sleeping female.

He went back inside to inform the other's Kagome had gone home to sleep.
