InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ haveing fun with deadly weapons ❯ some exboyfriend ( Chapter 6 )

HI

No own inu

The group settled in for the night Inuyasha sulking up in a tree every one else finding places to sleep down on the ground. After finding a decent place leaning against a tree across from Inuyasha Gina reached in to her bag and pulled out her CD player. Inuyasha groaned.

"What's the matter with you dogboy?"

"That damn music box"

"You can hear it from all the way over there?"

"Yeah"

"So what do ya want to hear tonight?"

"Silence would be good."

"That's a possibility, but I'll be bitchy and sleep deprived tomorrow."

"Sleep deprived?"

"I can't sleep with out it."

"Fine, whatever Geeney"

The knife was in her hand and flying towards his head before Inuyasha registered the fact that she had moved.

"Call me that again dogboy and you'll lose an ear."

Her voice had gone cold. She seemed like a different person, someone incapable of the smiles and laughter they had seen all day, someone fierce and capable of following through on that threat and much worse. Everyone became very still waiting for one of them to move. A tense silence filled the clearing. You could almost see the emotions rolling off of Gina. Rage and hate seeped out of every pore but there was a steady undercurrent of fear. She looked deadly. Then just a quick she shook it all off and smiled up at Inuyasha.

"Mind giving back the knife. I kinda like that one."

"What makes you think you can take me?" Inuyasha was caught off guard by her attack and he wasn't sure how to proceed. Anger seemed like the best response

"You mean other than the knife that just missed you, and the fact that I can have you flat on the ground with a single word."

"keh"

"Listen just don't call me that and will be just fine dogboy."

"Then stop calling me dogboy."

"Fair enough, now give me back my knife."

Inuyasha removed the knife and tossed it back to its owner where it disappeared. Silence followed this display. She looked over at Shippo and was glad to see him sound asleep. She didn't want the little punk to be afraid of her.

Gina fumbled in one of the inside pockets of her jacket and produced a pack of cigarettes and a lighter. She lit one and put the pack and the lighter back in her coat. She leaned into the tree blowing smoke up in to the night sky. She was waiting, waiting for some one to tell her to leave, or ask a question, or maybe even threaten her.

Sango was the first to break the slightly uneasy silence. "How do you know how to do that? Kagome told us that people from your time are not violent."

"Most aren't"

Miroku piped up with "so why learn?"

"It's part of the job"

"Which is?"

"None of your business"

"What the fuck we've been nothing but nice, answered all of your stupid fucking questions and you just sit there being a bitch and throwing things at people"

There was a slightly tense pause and then Gina started laughing. Everyone sat staring at her as is she was crazy. Which might be the case all things considered.

"Sorry the look on Kagome's face was priceless. She was sure I was gonna kill the loud mouth in the tree. First sorry about the whole knife thing it was just a knee jerk reaction to being called that name and I'm being bitchy because I am a bitch."

"And your profession would be?"

She wanted to tell the dammed priest to fuck off but something about his calm demeanor told her not to fuck around with him on this.

"I'm an assassin." She said it in a conversational tone as if she were a dentist or a banker

"What? Kagome? You said people weren't violent in your time? How can she make a living killing people?"

Gina was laughing again.

"What's so funny bitch?"

"You must be really gullible to believe people aren't violent in any time."

"I must say, I found it rather hard to believe." the monk said with a knowing smile.

"But it is safe." Kagome protested.

"Sure Tokyo is fairly safe considering the size, but it's a very big world out there with lots of people who don't get along."

"So you help people settle their differences?"

"I suppose you could say that, monk."

"Who do you work for?" Kagome asked. She was more than a little worried by the professional killer sitting less than ten feet from her

"No one at the moment. Why you got some work for me? Some ex boyfriend you want shuffled of the mortal coil?"

"You would kill some ones ex boyfriend isn't that kind of low?" Sango was a bit shocked at this women's callousness.

"Well I've never done an ex boyfriend. That was a joke but my theory is that if you got someone pissed enough to find me and spend that much money on making sure that you get dead either you deserve it or you should have known better than to fuck around with the bastard who gave me your name and a check. Except kids, I don't do kids. I was military for a while but the pays better freelance and fewer people bitch at you. It's not so bad really. I've got some friends we get drunk every once and a while, throw each other work now and then. Charlie likes to hassle me about the knife throwing but I don't like guns in some situations. Besides knives are reusable bullets aren't. See what I mean"

Her knife was in the tree again, three centimeters from Inuyasha's ear again.

This is my favorite chapter; please don't say bad things about it. Unless it really sucks then flame away.
