I Do Not Own Inuyasha

Chapter 41

This was the final step to their escape from the Onigumos. And here she was at the station with her papers and Kagome.

"Don't worry Ami, everything will go alright," Kagome whispered to her. Rin nodded, her and Kagome were posing as two sisters; Yamato Ai and Ami. It wasn't that difficult of a disguise but Rin still felt uneasy as she walked with Kagome, something just didn't feel right to her has she walked through the station. Something in her was whispering now was a good time for her to run, time to flee and escape. Rin didn't even know what in her was deciding this but it had her looking around the station for an Onigumo. Her heart was beating quickly as they made it to the ticket booth.

Looking over her shoulder her eyes caught sight of someone whom she had hoped to never see again, and face she knew all too well from all the survalience on the Onigumos. A young dectective, Kohaku something or other, he was looking right at her as she stood there with Kagome smoking a cigarette casually. Her eyes narrowed on him and a smile curved his lips which had her eyes scanning around the station in search of the other Onigumos. Her eyes saw Magatsuhi and Rin glanced to Kagome who was talking with the ticket booth manager, then her eyes narrowed on Magatsuhi.

Focusing on remaining calm Rin walked away from Kagome without her friend noticing and she made way away from Kagome towards the construction labeled tunnels. She slipped around barriers barring people from the tunnel then she began running; she had to get them away from Kagome. That was all that mattered. If she could get them away from Kagome then she could call for Sesshomaru or hide in here.

She was very good at hiding; it helped she was mute and small, two things Kohaku and Magatsuhi were not, and she would use them to her advantage. She leapt over the railing and lightly landed on the dusty concreate landing for the stop to be and then she silently made her way through the tunnel, as quickly as she could without disturbing anything or jarring something. her fingers latched onto the whistle Sōten had given her as she slipped around a corner.

"Where'd she go?" she heard Kohaku demand as she heard his and Magatsuhi's heavy footsteps coming after her.

"Be quiet!" Magatsuhi hissed, and her heart tightened in fear as she tightened her grip on the slim silver whistle in her fingers and she held her breathe.

"Come on, Rin, you know we're not going to hurt you. Just come out, and we'll reward you," Magatsuhi called out into the echoing darkness of the tunnel. Rin just moved further from them in silence; she had grown up playing hide and seek with an inu daiyōkai, an ookami and a daiyōkai; all more powerful than the Onigumos. She could evade him until Sesshomaru came for her. Trembling fingers brought the whistle to her lips.

"Alright, I got the tickets Ami, let's go!" Kagome declared happily as she turned around to look for Rin. And her heart dropped to the pit of her stomach as she looked at nothing but Rin's small duffle.

"Ami? Ami!" Kagome shouted grabbing Rin's duffle and shoving herself through the masses of people searching frantically for the girl who was missing. Rin couldn't be missing! Not now! Not when they were so close to forever being away from here and away from her captors! Kagome twirled around frantically her blue eyes scanning the crowd desperately.

"Ami!" Kagome screamed. "Rin!"

Magatsuhi's red eyes scanned the darkness but even he had to admit Rin was a clever girl for slipping into the darkness. If she were in the dark then so was he and though he had sharper senses than most yōkai even his eyesight was no superior in the dark. He was not a cat or something, he was a yōkai but even what breed he was was so mixed up that he couldn't tell you. However seeing in the dark was not something he did as his eyes desperately scanned the never ending darkness for the human girl. The only good thing about them being in the dark was if he couldn't see where he was going then she sure as hell could not see where she was going.

In a way neither of the them had the advantage nor the disadvantage in the darkness, and if that were the case he'd just have use his superior hearing to find her. The human couldn't be all that quiet, she was human after all. An crippling screaming whistle pierced through the silence and had him howling in pain as he fell to his knees covering his over sensitive ears.

Kagome stopped as her eyes turned towards the construction tunnel where a most terrifying roar came from and her heart sunk. Rin would run in there, kami knew the girl had never had an ounce of fear where the dark places of this world were concerned but right now. Righ now Kagome didn't know what to do, she would need help because if the Onigumos had found them here then there was no way in hell she could evade them. Or even take them on; she was just human. However there was a more terrifying growl behind her which had her looking over her shoulder as a huge white doge streaked through the screaming people.

"Sesshomaru!" Kagome shouted. "She's in there!" she pointed to the empty tunnel. The huge three legged dog snapped his huge jaws and his teeth rang at the action before he lunged through the tunnel. Kagome ran after him, leaping over the barrier as she heard Inuyasha coming after her too. But her only concern was for Rin as she ran into the tunnel. There was a horrifying roar which shook the tunnel and she stumbled a bit as she tried to move forward.

More chapters to come!
