InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ A Life Filled With Lies ❯ A Brewing Storm ( Chapter 5 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

I woke up groggy and went over to the TV's and gear to see if Dan had anymore late night conversations, but the only thing recorded was his snoring. As I rubbed my eyes I saw Dan go off to work. Well I guess I should go back over there to see what I can find as far as Dan's plan.

I was about to get ready and leave when a knock came at my door. I looked through the curtains upstairs and saw that is was Nancy...fuck I forgot about her and now what do I do she is at my door. Just relax Kagome and pretend you're not home she will go away.

"Hello?" Nancy said through the door.

I didn't respond I remained silent and sat there waiting for her to leave.

"I know you're in there I saw your figure in the window." Shit please tell me she doesn't remember me.

"I'm sorry to bother you sir, but I thought I should greet you since you're new to the neighborhood." Sir...excuse me! I thought you saw my figure you would think you would see these two lumps on my chest...they aren't that small! I completely got sidetracked from the situation and examined how she could have thought I was a man.

"Well, if you need anything I live in the house behind yours." She said with a sweet town. This Nancy was a lot nicer than the one that just smirked as I got the shit beaten out of me...what a psycho.

Once she left and I saw her back at her house I gave a sigh of relief. Ok that was a little nerve rattling, well it looks like she isn't going to be leaving the house anytime soon...looks like I have time to kill. But with what there was no point in me sitting by the TV's hoping something will happen after all the tapes record everything....hmm...I decided to call the house to at least tell them about the information I found out from last night.

When I called Shippo was the one who answered the phone, "Hello?" Shippo asked.

"Hi Shippo, is Inuyasha or Sesshomaru around?"

"Ugh...they are a bit tied up right now can I leave a message?" Shippo asked sounding like a secretary.

"Oh, well can you grab their attention for just a moment this is urgent." Right as I finished the sentence I heard muffled yells and thudding in the background, "Say Shippo when you said tied up did you by any chance really tie them up?"

"Well Kagome I'll tell them that you called! Bye!" Shippo hung up the phone quickly.

I giggled a little at the thought of a seven year old kit tying up the two skilled assassins. Maybe I should go over there and help them out...besides the information I have is really important. I grabbed the photos of the documents and the recordings of Naraku's and Dan's conversation then made sure Nancy was out of sight and headed out.


I opened the door to the house and saw both Sesshomaru, Inuyasha, and Miroku tied up on the living room floor bound in jump ropes and had bandannas cover their mouth's. Meanwhile Sango was playing tea party with Shippo next to them. I couldn't retain the laughter so it looks like the young kitsune had some help from a demon slayer.

"Kagome! You're back so soon?" Sango said getting up and walking over to hug me.

"Yeah well I heard that Inuyasha and Sesshomaru were tied up and I had some important information to deliver." I said walking with Sango back over to the couch.
"Oh yeah, I didn't have a part with Inuyasha and Sesshomaru, only Miroku that pervert!" Sango glared at the tied up peeping Tom while he let out a whimper.

"Looks like I missed a party...anyway I'm sorry to end the fun, but I found out some things that need to be addressed." Sango shook her head and went over to the bound up guys.

After Sango and I untied the guys while Shippo pouted, being sad about his playmates being released we all went into the study and I took out the documents and recordings. After the recordings played Sesshomaru leaned back in his chair in thought.

"Well, that is interesting Kagome. Looks like you are going to be calling your mission off. You did well. I will go back to the house and grab you're stuff." Sesshomaru said leaning foreword again.

"Why, shouldn't we try to discover what their plans are or something?"

"It has become too much of a risk having you stay there...leave this part up to me."

"Sesshomaru remember our deal!" I said firmly.

"Yes, yes I know and I'm not stepping over any boundaries, but Kagome you have to realize that if you were to remain there it would be like a lamb trying to go undetected in a clearing with lions circling around. I will keep you updated and give you full rights over the mission, but I have to do my job too."

"Alright Sesshomaru. But please be careful I really didn't like the way Naraku said he would take care of us."

"Don't worry Kagome I won't let anything happen to you." He said flashing his heart melting stare...It's not me I'm worried about...I smiled back thankfully and went back out to the couch.

Inuyasha came over and sat next to me, Shippo noticing this came over and squeezed in between putting his head on my shoulder. Making Inuyasha slightly jealous over how well Shippo was able to get my attention. Shippo had discovered a new passion making Inuyasha mad and protecting me from Inuyasha. Shippo gave Inuyasha his devious smile and then looked over to me.

"Oh Kagome I am glad you're home!" Shippo said embracing me in a hug. I felt a sudden lack of support around my chest.

"Shippo...did you undo my bra?" I asked reaching around to see if the clasp was undone or broken. Inuyasha's face turned slightly red.

"Kagome what's a bra?" Shippo asked giving his innocent face...of course he knew what a bra was, but he couldn't lead on that he knew that.

"Never mind Shippo.." I wasn't going to tell him after all he was only seven.

"Oh come on Kagome he did that on purpose!" Inuyasha twitched.

"Inuyasha he is seven I really doubt that his mind is that corrupt...unlike somebody's in this room."

"I didn't even say anything! This time..." Miroku said across from us in the chair."

"Oh, Miroku sorry I forgot you were here, anyway like I was saying for the first time it isn't Miroku with the corrupt mind!" I said glaring at Inuyasha.

"Kagome...I have a question?" Shippo again peered up at me innocently.

"Yes Shippo?"
"Well Inuyasha and Miroku were talking and I overheard them say that they wanted to have sex with you and Sango....what does sex mean?" Shippo grinned to himself and thought about how good of an actor he was and how it was going to impact Inuyasha...he felt bad for throwing Miroku under the bus, but he was the only one who would talk about that sort of thing. Inuyasha and Miroku's face turned bright red and began trying to cover up what the young kit had heard...meanwhile making mental notes to kill him.

"You two are pure hentai's! Sango!” I yelled getting up. Sango came into the room at the yelling of her name.

“What is going on?” Sango asked panting a little.

“I just asked what sex meant...cause I heard Miroku and Inuyasha talking about having sex with you and Kagome...what is the big deal?” Shippo said trying to hold back the evil smirk that burrowed deep in his mind. Sango stood there red as an apple while a twitch became noticeable across her right eye.

“No Sango! You don’t understand!” Miroku pleaded at her feet. Sango took out her boomerang and began chasing him around the house.

“Kagome the kid is lying I didn’t say shit to Miroku!” Inuyasha said trying to put his hand on my shoulder to be sincere.

“Inuyasha you hentai! SIT!SIT SIT SIT!” Inuyasha fell as if a magnet was pulling him. I stormed out of the room and went to the kitchen and sat down.

“Shippo when I get up!” Inuyasha threatened making the young fox demon run as fast as he could to his room. His evil plan worked out well, but he didn’t get as far as what would happen to him.

As I sat at the kitchen table Miroku ran in and had finally been cornered by Sango...I could see the fear go through his body. She threw her boomerang at him hitting him right on the forehead knocking him off of his feet with a giant lump forming from where the hit had impacted him.

“Miroku...I will kill you if I hear about any more of your sick yearnings towards me! Got it!” Sango yelled.

“Sure...Sango.” Miroku gulped and scurried to his feet to go after Shippo
Sango sat across from me and gave out a sigh and once all the guys were out of sight she began to laugh.

“What is so funny Sango?”

“I don’t really care and did you see the look on Miroku’s face!” She howled.

“Yeah... me neither, but boy is it fun to boss them around like that.” I said smiling.

“Yeah you are the lucky one you have two guys wrapping themselves around your finger.” Sango smirked.

“What? What do you mean two?” I was confused.

“Dude Inuyasha is obviously falling for you, but Sesshomaru is after you too.” She gave a little giggle again.

“No...Sesshomaru and I are just friends and besides Inuyasha and I...we aren’t even together..”

“Please Kagome wake up a little huh. I feel a definite storm coming on over which brother gets you.”

“Sango! No there isn’t.” I couldn’t think of Sesshomaru like that...I mean sure he was good looking and really caring underneath his cold exterior, but...no I can’t like both of them that is not fair...nope Sango doesn’t know what she is talking about even if I did like both of them Sesshomaru doesn’t like me like that. I think I would know if he did.

Our conversation was cut short when Sesshomaru came into the room with a duffle bag. I began to fear that he might have heard our conversation, but Sesshomaru didn't bring it up or lead on that he might now. He just came over to the couch and sat down.

"What's going on Sesshomaru?" Sango asked looking at his bag.

"I have to take care of something." He said looking away. He looked like he was fighting something inside of him, his face was contorted and he seemed to avoid direct contact.

"Take care of what? Sesshomaru what's wrong?" I asked worried he seemed so distressed.

"Kagome...I...I have to go, this conversation is better left for when I get back."

"When are you getting back?" I really wish I knew what was wrong with him.

"I don't know yet." And with that Sesshomaru left for the door and Sango and I could hear the car speeding away.

Sango and I just looked at each other and shrugged. We sat there for awhile talking about everything from guys to hair products. I had finally found another person to talk to about girl stuff. If I had tried having this conversation with Miroku or Inuyasha they would have found weird ways to twist my words into something perverted and Sesshomaru probably wouldn't even pay much attention. It was starting to get late so we began the preparations for dinner.

While we were boiling a pan of water for the noodles a loud scream shook from upstairs. Sango and I grabbed our weapons and Kirara past us in a fast pace. Once we got upstairs we looked in every room until we stumbled upon Shippo's and mine. The loud scream was coming from inside the closet. Sango and I looked at each other and nodded and I slowly took my place for an attack while Sango opened the door.
We threw it open and I had a bow and arrow ready at hand. But inside of it was a bound up Shippo hanging upside down from the pole that holds the hangers.

"Shippo!" I ran over and began to untie him while Sango held him so he wouldn't fall to the ground once he was free.

"Inuyasha and Miroku tied me up!" The kit cried...his plan was turning out to be even greater than he had expected Sango and Kagome would get those perverts back for sure.

"Those bakas’!" I said waving my fist. It took a while to free Shippo and once he was down he lifted his nose into the air.

“What is it Shippo?” Sango asked.

“I smell something burning.” Sango and I both looked at each other with ‘oh shit looks’ on our faces and shouted in unison, “Dinner!”

We ran downstairs and saw a small fire had started up in the kitchen, and by small I mean it was raging and had enveloped half the room. I shoved Shippo and Kirara outside while Sango tried to contain it and screamed for the guys to get downstairs.

“What the hell is all the yelling about?” Inuyasha asked rubbing his ears, but as he saw the fire his eyes grew wide. Miroku followed and began panicking.

“What happened we have to call the fire department!” Miroku cried. I came back in the house with a fire hose and turned it on full blast, but it was useless it wouldn’t go down. All three of us ran outside and met up with Shippo.

“Inuyasha what do we do!” I screamed cleaning to him, the rest of the house was now full of smoke and fire had streamed down the hall. He held me close to his chest and didn’t say anything. He just watched the flames engulf his house. Miroku was frantic he had called the fire department and was yelling almost incoherently for them to come and tame the fire.

“Kagome where are we going to go if the fire eats the house?” Shippo asked standing in awe as the flames danced around.

“I don’t know Shippo, but it will be alright...won’t it Inuyasha?” I asked looking up at his golden eyes which color had enhanced from the gleam of fire. He smiled down at me and looked back up at the house.
After calling the fire department Miroku looked over and saw me grasping Inuyasha for support and the wheels in his head turned as he grabbed Sango.

“It will be alright Sango.” He said trying to be charming, but Sango Squirmed out of it and sent him down on the ground eating dirt.

The fire department came and battled the fire for over two hours while we peered on as the roof collapsed and the wood turned to charcoal. Shippo gave a little cry for all his toys that were now ashes. Everyone’s faces were glum and looked hopeless.

The fire started to go down and the fire chief walked over to us. We all gazed at him in anticipation as to the condition of the house.

“It appears that the fire was an electrical fire...not caused by the burnt meal though that probably contributed to it...there is speculation that foul play might have been involved, but it is unclear at this point.” The chief said taking off his hat and rubbing his graying hair.

“Your saying that someone purposely did this?” I asked.

“It’s only speculation we won’t know yet until an investigation is done. One of the police officers will be here soon for questioning basic procedure.”

“Yeah we understand.” Miroku said his face pale.

All our attentions went back on the house that was now dripping with water and burnt to a crisp meanwhile one name played in all our heads...Naraku must have done this, this was probably all part of his plan. Inuyasha looked worse than all of us his gaze had left the house and his face was hidden by his hair.

What could we do now...where would we go...these questions circle my head over and over again. I couldn’t imagine what Inuyasha was thinking. I saw Sesshomaru scrambling out of his car and running over to me.

“Kagome thank god you are alright! I heard a hit was made out on you by Naraku...and I’m so glad you made it out alright!” Sesshomaru grabbed me into a hug. I had never seen him like this. His hug was more intimate and lasted until I wiggled out of it. His face was relieved but still had a streak of sorrow over it and that is when I figured out that Sango was right...

“Thanks Sesshomaru we made it out fine too.” Inuyasha said sarcastically with his arms folded.
“Kagome is really lucky to have Sesshomaru...they should get married someday.” Shippo said to Sango with Inuyasha overhearing. Inuyasha face contorted...and he sent an evil glare down to the young kit. Which made Shippo go running with Inuyasha trying to catch him.

“Sesshomaru...where are we going to go?” I asked.

“We have a summer home we will go there, it might just be the perfect place anyway. It is a long ways away from here and can allow us protection while we investigate into Naraku.” Miroku seemed really happy for some reason, until Sesshomaru added that the summer home was on a beach. Sango and I both rolled our eyes, of course Miroku would be happy he would get to see us half naked.

When the cops came it was another hour of sitting by the condemned house only know we had to answer questions separately. Sesshomaru had told us earlier to leave the cops in the dark about Naraku and everything that surrounds us after all one of the conditions of being an assassin is to remain unknown in the public eye especially cops.

“Do you kids have anywhere else to go?” The officer asked.

“We aren’t kids old man and yeah we do.” Inuyasha scowled.

“Inuyasha he is just trying to help get over your authority issue for just one moment.” I glared. The officer didn’t ask anymore questions and bowed his head and walked away. We all got into Sesshomaru’s Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG Black Series and we had to contort our bodies so that all of us could fit. Shippo took the front seat so he could have a seatbelt while Sango and Miroku took the seats on the outside and Inuyasha in the middle. I had to sit on Inuyasha and keep low so that the police wouldn’t get after us.

It was kind of awkward sitting on Inuyasha he had put his arms around me to secure me. Of all days to wear a skirt...the ride was longer than I had anticipated. My ass cheeks began cramping up and I felt bad for how Inuyasha must be feeling. I began feeling drowsy and car sick.

“Here Kagome you can lay down on me if you need Kirara won’t mind.” Kirara gave a purr as Sango petted her.

“Yes Kagome you seem rather sick go ahead just lay across from us.” Miroku said and for an instant I had forgotten all about my current dress and curled up with Kirara...I really should have put my head on Miroku and my legs over on Sango, but my mind was too jumbled for me to even care. I fell into a deep sleep and weird dreams plagued my mind.

One dream I was running from a voice and fell off of a cliff and I was caught by a branch, but then Dan appeared and threw a grenade down and it fell on the branch making it explode along with me. Then I had another dream in which I was a rag doll being tugged at by Sesshomaru and Inuyasha, but was broken up when Kirara ran at me and took one of my arms and began using me like an actual toy.

I woke up when I heard a loud pounding. I rubbed my eyes and saw Inuyasha smirking while Miroku moaned and rubbed his head. Damn it...don’t tell me Miroku saw anything! I took my legs off of him and curled up just between Inuyasha and Sango. Miroku at that sight pouted and looked back out the window.

It wasn’t too long after that when we pulled up into the driveway to the summer home. It was at least two in the morning. We had been on the road for hours. It was a beautiful place hidden away by trees and as you walked closer to the house you could hear waves crashing against the beach. It was completely isolated the stars were bright in the sky undisturbed by light or pollution. The house itself was lavish it was two stories and big. It had two stoned dogs guarding the entrance way and it seemed fancier than home which was a surprise because my first thought when I moved into Sesshomaru’s and Inuyasha’s house was like moving into a palace.

I didn’t even have to share a room with Shippo there were eight bedrooms in this house. It seemed that everything was bigger and better than at home from the gym to the kitchen. I really felt like some sort of royalty in this place.


Inuyasha and the others went ahead. I wanted to stay out a little longer and check out the beach. I walked over and sat down on a dune. It must of been a really hot day because the sand felt like a warm blanket. I took off my shoes and sat them next to me. The sand felt so good on my feet and it was the most beautiful scene I had ever gazed upon. The waves were a beautiful blue from the light given off of from the moon. I felt like I could reach up and touch the stars.

As I sat and looked in awe at natures beauty I heard footsteps come up from behind me. I glanced over and saw Sesshomaru staring out into the ocean.

“You know Kagome, I used to love coming here as a kid. I would sneak out at night and just sit beneath the stars and listen to the rumbling of the waves.”

“Yeah it really is wonderful out here.” I said not taking my stare off from the waves.

“Inuyasha hated the sand he would grumble and moan plus he was always afraid that a shark or sea demon would come out and get him.” Sesshomaru chuckled, “Why do waste time on him?” Sesshomaru said it like it was just as miniscule as a hello. I froze I didn’t know how to respond to that.

“What do you mean Sesshomaru?” It was the only thing I could think to say...I really don’t want to have this conversation.

“Inuyasha is immature and has no room for anyone other than himself, besides he is a hanyou.” Sesshomaru almost cringed on the word. I didn’t know Sesshomaru had such harsh feelings towards Inuyasha.

“What is wrong with being a half demon...besides I’m human remember.”

“Nothing...I’m just saying you deserve better.” Sesshomaru sat down and situated himself next to me.

“Like who? You.” I couldn’t believe I let that slip...fuck...I don’t want this moment to be happening.

“Kagome.” Sesshomaru took my chin and turned it to his face staring straight into his eyes which seemed softer than before, “I don’t want you to be hurt.”

“And you think Inuyasha would do that...what is even the big concern Inuyasha and I aren’t even dating!” I exclaimed, but was cut short when Sesshomaru pulled me into a kiss. I don’t know why I didn’t fight it I never felt that way towards Sesshomaru, but I couldn’t move I just tilted my head and put my hands around his neck. With Sesshomaru I felt something different than what I feel when I am with Inuyasha. What have I gotten myself into...I can’t choose.
Sesshomaru laid me back in the sand and I felt my heart was now beating in my throat...what do I do...I opened my eyes for a brief second and saw Inuyasha standing by the backyard deck. Anger and sorrow streaking his face in the light of the moon. I got out of Sesshomaru’s grip, but Inuyasha ran off before I could even get to my feet.

Sango was right....a storm was about to hit...only I wish I wasn’t the one that was causing it. Little did I know that the storm brewing between two brothers was going to be met up by a hurricane from another set of brothers. What is a girl to do...
