Police reports and their hidden truths

~~~

 

Back to the same meeting room...same agents...same angry boss.

 

“Can you FUCKING believe this?!” Papers were thrown down half-hazardously on the mahogany table, drawing everybody's eyes up to their steaming boss. “We just got a police report of Acid Rose taking down nearly...”He stopped there. “Well I don't know how many people, but a lot!” Mr. Yoshimito was red-faced and radiating frustration. He jammed the cigar furiously into his mouth, took a lengthy breath, and blew out smoke. His ranting immediately followed.

 

“They are going to make the front page! And from what I read here we got another gang on our fucking cases!” Mr. Yoshimito bellowed, while storming back and forth in front of the table. After taking long drags from his cigar, he rested one of his hands on the table, with the cigar protruding form his fingertips. The other hand was massaging his left temple. “ Do you know what this publicity will do for their popularity?...” He spoke with an eerily calm voice. “These new fuckers we don't have to care about...but if Acid Rose stays longer than wanted, people will wonder why the largest corporation in Tokyo is unable to take three measly people down...”

 

A ningen piped up in the back. “Sir...I mean…they are just three people...they shouldn't even matter to us!”

 

The whole room fell into silence. Some of the agents were shaking their heads at this man's stupidity; others were waiting patiently to see their boss' reaction.

 

Mr. Yoshimito raised an eyebrow. “ Nandato?”

 

The man foolishly continued, oblivious to his chief's rapidly escalating anger. “Well...what I mean is...three women shouldn't even pose a threat to us, we shouldn't even care!” Mr.Yoshimito tapped his cigar on the table and responded simply. “You're fired.”

 

The young man looked in disbelief, his jaw falling open. Mr. Yoshimito pointed to the door and calmly stated, “ Leave. Ima.” The now fired agent shook and bowed his head allowing his bangs to hide his eyes. He stood up from his chair and after a short, cold bow, slammed the door on his way out.

 

Mr. Yoshimito looked like he could care less about the situation and turned to stare at the remaining workers. “ Anyone want to add something to his statement?” Nobody spoke. “Good.”

 

He once again began his ranting with the “problem” at hand. Miroku leaned over to Inuyasha and muttered, “ Remind me never to get on his bad side.” Inuyasha gave a rough scoff. Even though this pompous man was his boss, Mr. Yoshimito could not fire him. He was one of the son's to the leader of Taisho and one of the heir's. He could very well show off his attitude anytime in front of this man. Even so, Mr. Yoshimito was not in a cheerful mood right now and Inuyasha did not prefer to have a temper brawl with the steaming boss.

 

Sesshoumaru sat in full thought, ignorantly ignoring his frustrated boss. `I have most assuredly seen what those female ningen can accomplish' he mused, coldly. `It was not tactful, but instead bold. Their movements were precise, albeit gaudy. Their weapons of choice, successful yet only hands on.' Sesshoumaru calculated. ` They regrettably battle as that of my wretched half-brother.'

 

Miroku regarded apprehensively his superior. He wouldn't stop ranting! He was literally an over-stressed, ticking time bomb. A time bomb that hopefully won't know that he, Yash and Sesshoumaru were at the same club that Acid Rose made their appearance last night. The houshi sighed. That would be a damn horrible experience. It was now 2:00 a.m. on a Friday and they still had to go to school.

 

*Flashback*

 

Last night once seeing Acid Rose disappear after an amazing fight, their true fears were recognized. They had no idea where the women were. They had been carried away by the over-flooded mob, and were stolen away from them. The monk, youkai and hanyou searched the wrecked club scene, finding only random people cowering or trying to escape. No familiar girls, and thankfully no dead bodies. Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha were sniffing the air. Immediately Inuyasha turned to the doorway as well as his aniki and bolted. Miroku was hot on their heels.

 

The youkai and hanyou reached the door first and bursted forth out to find Kagome, Sango and Rin huddled against the side of the building and appeared to be waiting anxiously, stressed, and exceedingly worried. They sharply swivelled their heads when the front entrance was thrown open and physically displayed relief. They were all silent for a moment, staring at each other in a revered stupor, both sides appreciative to find one another. All was silent until Miroku ran out and Inuyasha came out of his reverie to growl lividly, “ Where the FUCK were you wenches!!”

 

The girls winced and then Kagome shouted back. “ Natsukashii!!” And flung herself into Inuyasha's muscular body. “We were worried so much too!! We were carried out by the crowd and didn't want to risk going back in.” She wrapped her arms around the poor, confused hanyou boy's neck and continued in a whisper but still loud enough for everyone to hear. “ Gomen nasai...for worrying you.”

 

Inuyasha was stunned. A healthy blush dusted his cheeks, and to hide his embarrassment of being embraced by Kagome so suddenly, buried his face in her hair regardless his friends watching. He cleared his throat and countered gruffly. “Just...just don't do it again.”

 

While the two showed this un-characteristic display of affection, Sesshoumaru turned back to face the remaining females with scolding, narrowed eyes that demanded more of an explanation. Sango continued, “Just as Kagome said, the crowd pushed us away out of the building...and going back in would have been a death wish.” She rubbed her arm uncomfortably. “Wh-what happened?”

 

Miroku started talking somberly. “ The gang called Acid Rose made an appearance and, I guess you could say they saved the day.” Miroku's brows furrowed. “But no matter, the important concept is that you three are safe.” He gave a warm smile, and Sango blushed. “ You scared us, as much as Sess and Yash over here don't want to admit it.” Inuyasha was unable to respond to this comment; still having his face tucked away and was aimlessly, clawing gently and soothingly up and down Kagome's back. Sesshoumaru turned towards the road, his face stoic and cold as ever.

 

He did not want to acknowledge it. Acknowledge the fact that he, Sesshoumaru Taisho, was worried about three ningen women. And more than anything worried about the little one with flowing black hair, tempting hazel eyes and a beautiful smile. He crossed his arms stubbornly over his broad chest, still facing the road. Miroku brought up Sango's hands and kept them in his, rubbing his thumb over in a calming motion, devoid of all lecherousness. “ I'm glad you're okay,” he whispered gently to Sango. Her deep chocolate eyes widened and she turned her head, hiding a rather nice blush.

 

Rin looked between the two would-be couples. Inuyasha and Kagome still lost in their solitary world, and Miroku and Sango, with the houshi whispering endearments and thanks to a flustered and sweetly embarrassed demon slayer. The girl sighed, and scratched her head sheepishly. Her hand immediately stopped when coming in contact with a hot, liquid substance. She gave a small gasp and scrutinized her hand seeing blood coating her fingertips.

 

“You are wounded.” Sesshoumaru stated, more in a matter-of-fact voice than a concerned one. He smelt the blood before the girl even looked at her hand. He was staring openly at her now and their gazes locked. Rin averted her eyes from his molten ones and went to rub her hand on her other arm, so not to get her dress tainted. The youkai grabbed her hand before she could make such a movement and took a tissue out of his back pocket to wipe away the offensive substance.

 

“It's alright...I didn't even notice it.” Rin supplied, while staring at his hands clearing hers with the tissue. Once he was done he threw the cloth into the nearest waste bin. He held her soft hands a fraction of a second longer than needed, before releasing them.

 

“You should be departing back.” Sesshoumaru added, trying to sound as his usual autocratic self. “ We'll walk you three. Iku zo.” He said the last part to the others and abruptly turned to head to the shrine a few houses down.

 

Once these commands were said, something clicked in. Inuyasha stopped his hand movements and Kagome stood shock still. Without delay they broke apart from each other, flushed and muttering incoherent words. Inuyasha tried to sound back to normal with saying gruffly, “You didn't have to fall on me wench.”

 

The miko heard this and turned around, still red- faced glowering at Inuyasha. She looked like she was about to scream but instead closed her eyes in a dismissive motion and went to Rin's side, while heading to their shrine. Inuyasha gaped for a second before shouting back, “Oi! Where do you think you're going?!” And ran to catch up with the trio. While this was happening Miroku and Sango also came out of their world and as well broke apart. Miroku decided to be wise and a gentleman and not attempt to grope Sango as she hurried to catch up to the rest of their friends.

 

Once they reached the top of the shrine steps, Sango began talking. “ Well I don't know what were going to do about the club...I can imagine the police are on their way.” She sighed at looked towards their club a little ways away. “ I don't think we're going to sleep tonight.” Kagome still appeared to be frustrated but added, avoiding Inuyasha's eyes “ How are you guys getting home?”

 

“ The same way we got here...our cars are parked on the other side of the club. We'll stay clear of any suspicious people.” Miroku said with a shrug.

 

“Gomen...for keeping you up so late. Everybody left from the club once those bakamonos came.” Sango looked down guiltily.

 

Inuyasha shrugged. “ It's fine, we've been out this late before, no big deal. I'm just pissed that our first time at your club was a bad one.”

 

Kagome looked at him and offered a smile. He gave a smirk in return. She rolled her eyes and said with a yawn, “Well I'm going inside, see you tomorrow.” She turned and opened her screen door to disappear inside.

 

“Hai, I'm going in too, have a safe trip back.” She gave a smile and followed suite. Miroku had a contempt smirk on his face, like he accomplished something. Inuyasha smacked him in the arm and turned to go down the stairs with Miroku. But not before adding, “ `Night Rin.” Miroku gave a wave.

 

This left Sesshoumaru and Rin alone. The beautiful ningen whispered, “ I have bandages inside, I'll be fine.” She gave a sweet smile and added, “ See you tomorrow Sess.” And turned to head into her shrine.

 

The youkai blinked at the nickname, and shook his head gently. ` What an amusing little ningen.' He turned to the long flight of stairs, and continued down. Just before the three were going to reach their cars, after witnessing the police take away the brutes that ambushed the club, they received a call from Mr. Yoshimito for an important emergency meeting.

 

“Just fucking great.” Inuyasha growled, irritated. “I should really take up smoking.”

 

* Flashback ended*

 

Miroku had a satisfied grin at the memory and Inuyasha was holding a blush. He still couldn't believe he held Kagome that long without even considering his actions. `I'm such a baka.' Sesshoumaru after recalling the memory was a bit uneasy. After seeing Rin's blood on her hands he felt a strong pull on his youki. He did not know if it was a good pull or bad. Whichever the case it was still a pull and that did not appease him.

 

Mr. Yoshimito stopped babbling. He sighed roughly, his voice hoarse from all the non-stop talking. “ We will deal with this later, I just wanted a meeting to bring this more severe problem to your attention.” He began rubbing his forehead. “Dismissed. Kami, I need another cigar”

 

Everyone immediately stood up to leave, chairs being dragged on the carpet floor. Sesshoumaru, Inuyasha and Miroku set forth, not looking forward to this tiring day.
