Kuroi_Yasha: Hello people! So sorry I haven’t updated yet, but I just got a new Laptop!! WHOOT!! Anyhow, I’m very sorry I haven’t updated, I think I kind of broke my rule about updating at least once every two months. So, as a result, I’ll try to make this chapter a long and good one.

OH YES, I seem to have confused a few people on the whole Akurei introduction. Okay, Akurei works for Koga. Yet, it isn’t willingly. If you remember in chapter five or six I can‘t remember, he says that Koga has ’someone’ close to him held hostage, so he is forced to obey Koga’s every order Emi also works for Koga. However Yumi Katsuragi, and Harada and Sakura Kazanna work for Sesshomaru, who is the leader of the rebellion against Koga. If you have anymore questions, feel free to ask and I’ll answer it, either in the review as a reply, or I’ll answer it in the next chapter if I see that it might clear up confusion among all. Thank you again for asking, those who did. Now, on with the story.

DISCLAIMER: See all the previous chapters. I got sick of having to write it. Fuck it, I’ve said it all seven other chapters, if you didn’t get the drift, your probably not gonna, so what’s the point?

Enough is Enough
Chapter 8: What I must, I shall do.

“You have failed me Akurei…”
“…”
“Please my lord…Tsumetai-san was doing an excellent job of disposing of the target, however Taisho’s lackey Katsuragi interfered.”
“Regardless, Akurei failed, it doesn’t matter if he was ambushed by the Interpol, he failed. An failure must be punished.”
“Stay out of this Ogawa…I will take any punishment you give me. So what shall it be? A thousand lashes? A ten man death-match?”
“When did I say that you were the one that was going to be specifically punished?”
“Then…”
“Give Lucia a hundred lashes.”
“NO!! YOU PROMISED SHE WOULDN’T BE HARMED!!”
“And you promised you’d never fail me. Equal no?”
“YOU SON OF A BI---”
“Yes my lord it is fair. Tsumetai-san and I shall depart now.”
“Very well. Do not fail me Ogawa, or you shall suffer my wrath as well.”

The black haired Tora left the room, a highly infuriated Inu-hanyou following him. “You really should be more careful Akurei. Your no good to your sister if your dead.” The hanyou scoffed as he followed her. “I just don’t fucking see how its fair that she get punished for my weakness. WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU LOOKING AT INSECT!?” he bellowed at an unfortunate Ga (Moth) Yukai. The small demon fled from the presence of the moody hanyou faster than the speed of light. Emi sighed as she continued walking. “There is no need to harass weaker youkai. It makes you seem more like Koga.” Akurei grimaced at the comparison. Still he continued sulking as they walked down the left wing of the ancient mansion of their “Employer”. The walk was full in a stressed silence, broken only by the small growls from Akurei and the exasperated sighs from Emi until he couldn’t help but ask.
“Why did you defend me Emi?”
The young Tora stopped in her tracks, almost causing him to crash into her. She turned to face him before answering, “Well, I just couldn’t let you take all the fault.” Akurei shook his head. “That’s not what I’m talking about Emi and you know it.’ She looked away, a flash of what appeared to be guilt in her eyes. It didn’t go unnoticed by Akurei. “What are you hiding from me Emi?” Anger appeared on the beautiful Tora’s face as she quickly turned back to face him, “I hide nothing Tsumetai. Unlike other people I know.” Again Akurei grimaced at the formal tone she used, “You know I hate being called that so don’t start.” This didn’t stop her tirade of anger, “Oh, and I’m sup post to care why?” Akurei looked away, “That’s what I’d like to know.” he whispered it, but she heard it. Her face softened as she pulled his face to meet hers, “Akurei you know that there can be nothing between us. And even if there could, now is not the time, nor the place for this Akurei.”
“Then when is?”
The Tora demoness could only offer him a bitter-sweet smile.
“I wish I knew Akurei…I truly do.”

------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------

Inuyasha sighed he made his way up the shrine steps. ‘Just when I think my fucked up excuse for a life can’t get any worse this shit comes along.’ He growled as he recalled his talk with his brother on how fucked up things had gotten over the span of five centuries. ‘You’d think the aristocratic fucker would be fucking kind enough to kill Koga for me, but no…the fucker wants me to. Not that I have a problem, but at least he fucking got Naraku out of the way. And that Sakura is pretty hot. Nothing on Sakaki or Kagura, but she’s like a exact copy of Sango. And Harada is exactly like Miroku. Man, I can’t believe I miss them.’ A vibration and loud ring from his pocket informed him that he was receiving a call. Opening the phone with practiced ease he put the small device where a his “Human” ear was, so that the volume didn’t hurt his ear. “Moshi moshi, Higurashi Inuyasha speaking. Who the fuck is this and what do you want?” Very classy in his opinion, took him most of the day to learn as well, the Introduction part that is.
“Inuyasha you dumb-fuck, who the fuck else would have this number?” Shippou… That little fucker would be taught the meaning of the word pain later. “I had a meeting with my ass-hole of a brother, so I had to give him my number as well. Now what do you want Kit, I’m very busy.”
Okay, so maybe walking up stairs isn’t exactly busy, but it was a lot of stairs.
“Bullshit Inuyasha I can see you climbing up the stairs right now.” Oh yes, there’d be lots of pain.
“Don’t you have anything better to do than bother me kit?”
“No. Well, not until Ayame comes anyway. I heard you had a brush with Akurei.”
“Don’t fucking remind me. What the fuck was he? I could detect the scent of a hanyou, but it was overpowered by the scent of a full demon.”
“Actually you should be lucky you got away alive. Much less beat him. He took down Miroku and Sango in their prime, forcing Kaede and myself to raise their children. Then when they sought revenge, he took them down as well. Hell, he even took down a few of Sesshomaru’s children.” Inuyasha was both shocked an angered by this response, “He killed them all? More importantly, he had children?” he could almost see
Shippou nodding on the other line.
“Yes, he had a few hanyou with Rin, you know the little kid that followed him around everywhere? Well, when she died a century ago. Akurei’s doing yet again, he re-mated with Kagura the wind sorceress.”
Had Inuyasha been drinking anything he would have been chocking on it at the very moment.
“If what you say is true, then how come Fluff’s hasn’t done anything about it?” A small hesitation on Shippou’s part let Inuyasha know that something was wrong. “Shippou, wha---” A sudden crash followed by various shouts and lone gun shot. “SHIPPOU!!”

------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------------------
(Minutes before)

“Yes, he had a few hanyou with Rin, you know the little kid that followed him around everywhere? Well, when she died a century ago. Akurei’s doing yet again, he re-mated with Kagura the wind sorceress.”
Shippou could hear Inuyasha begin stuttering. A sudden crash alerted him that perhaps he wasn’t as safe as he thought he was.
“If what you say is true, then how come Fluff’s hasn’t done anything about it?” Another crash and some shouts ensured his thought.
“Shippou wha--”
An immense crash sounded throughout the room as the front door was violently kicked down.
“There he is, kill him now!”
“NO! We were ordered to take him alive.”
“Fuck the order, kill the traitor!”
Shippou took advantage of the hesitation on the part of the aggressors and made a leap for the window. However he didn’t get far as a swift kick to the side of the head sent him reeling into the stone wall, a sickening crack sounding through the room, “No, no. Can’t let the traitor escape can we?” Shippou looked up into the violet eyes of a female Tora. “Y-you…won’t…kill…Inu…Yasha…̶ 1; The demoness gave him a sad smile, “No, your right I can’t.” She sighed softly as she pulled a handgun from her holster, “But I can kill you.” She pulled back the safety as she held it under his chin, “I’m sorry Shippou-kun…I hope you can forgive me, orders are orders you know. I don’t want my friends to be hurt. Again…I’m sorry.” Closing her eyes she pulled the trigger.
“SHIPPOU!!”
Not looking at the body of her former comrade, she picked the cell-phone.
“Inuyasha-san?”
“WHO THE FUCK IS THIS? WHERE’S SHIPPOU?!” A small sigh was the answer to his question.
“Inuyasha-san…You escaped Tsumetai-sama once, do not expect to escape him a second time. If Shippou‘s death teaches anything, it is that you will not escape. Koga-sama will have your head.” This being said she pushed the ‘Call End’ button. A lone tear falling from her practiced emotion-less eyes.

------------------------------------------------------
< br> “Is he dead?”
“Yes my lord…I did what I had to, now will you let Akurei see his sister?”
“Yes, you have once again proven your loyalty to me Ogawa. I shall grant your request. Akurei may see his sister.”
“Thank you my lord.
“Dismissed.”
“Yes sir.”

Emi made a quick turn. She could feel his eyes roaming on her body. But she had no option but to ignore it and move faster. Once outside she found Akurei leaning on a nearby wall. “I can’t believe you actually went through with it.” Emi didn’t respond as she continued walking, eyes fixed solely ahead. “I did what I had to. I will except your gratitude at any time.” Akurei walked in front of her, cutting of her path and forcing her to look at him, “Whoa, I never asked you to do this for me. You did this on your own free will.” She regarded him coldly, brushing past him. “Do you honestly think that I would wish the death of anyone, just so I could see Lucia? Is that how low you believe me to be?” Still she continued walking. “Fine Ogawa…do as you wish. However Shippou’s death will not be in vain. As soon as I kill Inuyasha, Koga is next.” Using her demonic speed, she pinned him to the wall, placing her gun under his chin, “Watch it Tsumetai, that’s treachery.” Akurei gave her a cold smirk, “Is this how you did Shippou?” A flash of hurt crossed her features, before anger replaced them and she brought the back of the pistol on his cheek, sending him to the floor. “I did what I fucking had to stay alive and make sure that you could see your sister you ungrateful fuck. So don’t be going all moral on me, because you’re just as bad.”
Akurei nodded, picking himself off the floor, “Yes, I know I’m sorry. ‘What I must, I shall do’. Sometimes I forget.” He took a few paces before regarding her again, “I’ll say hello to Lucia for you.”
Before she could respond Akurei had turned the corner and left. Hurt was in his voice.

----------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------

Sakaki sighed contently as she sat upon her Neko-Conico bedspread. It had been an exciting day, though the only thing that lingered in her mind was when Inuyasha had run beside her and whispered in her ear sending shivers up her spine. ’Why can’t I stop thinking about him? Is this love…or merely attraction?’

A stone hit her window as she sat contemplating her feelings toward the new (and quite handsome) transfer student. Walking over she saw a man with platinum blond hair, and dazzling green eyes. “Who are you?” The man gave her a kind smile before bowing, “Greetings Sakaki-sama. I am Akurei Tsumetai, I have come here at the request of my master, he wishes to know more about a beautiful damsel such as yourself, and was wondering if you would allow him an audience.” Sakai blushed at his polite words and the way he addressed her. “Who exactly is your master?” She questioned, the man gave another bow before answering, “Why he is lord Koga Wolfe, the corporate leader of Wolfe incorporations.” Sakaki’s eyes widened as he mentioned the name of one of Japan’s most powerful computer software corporations name. Sakaki was hesitant, “Why would he like to meet with me?” The man gave her a sad smile as he turned to regard her, “Unfortunately, it is because of your association with one Inuyasha Higurashi.” Sakaki’s eyes widened at the mention of the silver haired youth, “What exactly does he wish to discuss with me about Inuyasha-kun?” Akurei gave her a more sincere smile, “He has some interesting information that you might like to know. Also, he has a proposal for you.”
Sakaki was intrigued to say the least, “Your not lying or trying to trick me are you?” Akurei shook his head as he leapt up to her window, receiving a shriek of surprise from her. “What? Did you think Inuyasha was the only one that could do that?” Judging from her look and slightly gapping mouth he took it as a yes. Extending his hand he gave her a kind smile, “Shall we go then Sakaki-sama?” As she placed her hand in his, she barely suppressed another cry as he took off into the night with her, her mind wandering from idea to idea, but only one remained in the end, ‘Inuyash…Oh kitty!!”

Kuroi_Yasha: Well, that’s chapter 8, hopefully that got a few things explained. Next chapter should have more fighting, more explanations, and possibly a deeper story plot. But for now, lets thank my reviewers!

AESSEDAI88: Yes, your introduction was humiliating, but it did have a purpose, and hopefully you’ll allow me to show it.
Emi-Ogawa: Thanks for the continues support, and I hope this chapter was to your liking. Thanks for making such a great character!
Lycosyncer: Ah, Lyco, your ideas are great, but unfortunately I can’t make them work, I’m afraid I just haven’t seen enough Gundam SEED. Sorry, but if you want your own personal character, he is free to come into the story. Thanks for your review, and again sorry.
inuyasha-backlash wave; Yes, Inuyasha did go down fairly easy, but you have to remember that he wasn’t armed, his enemy had a farther range weapon, could shoot concentrated blasts of negative energy, and had superior speed. Plus, his leg was disabled. Don’t worry, our boy won’t go down so easily next time. Thanks for the review.
miaa_hiaa: Ah, miaa_hiaa, your character is just about ready to enter the story, however I do need a few more things, such as the weaponry, her beliefs on love and destiny/fate, and the most important thing, which side is she on? Is she one of the resistance, or is she a forced soldier of Koga, like Akurei and Emi? Let me know as soon as possible.

Again, than you all for reading, and I hope you enjoyed it. Until next time,
Kuroi_Yasha.
