Ch.8 - Shop Til' You Drop

Kenji parked his car outside of the mall with Rin peering out from the window of the car and stare at the big strange looking building. People were going in and out of the building carrying plastic bags of all sizes…

Rin felt herself being release from the strap that was holding her back from her seat which is known as the seatbelt and let the strap slid through her front chest and her stomach. Kenji crawled out of his side of the seat and walked over to Rin's side where she was sitting.

"Come on." Kenji say to the girl. Rin kept her eyes on the building. Lights were shining through the windows as noises where coming from inside of the mall. Rin cast her brown eyes on Kenji with a concern look.

"Where is this place? And… where are you taking me?" She ask him.

"This is the mall where you shop for clothes." He stated as he dart his eyes back and forth from the building and the girl. He offers his hand to her while she looks at it with confusion and then back at him. For a while there, Kenji felt himself dumb folded and took her by the arm leading her out of the car. He close the door shut and lead her into the building.

Rin moved closer to Kenji as they walked in and came to a stop with people walking past them. The people stares at the strange girl with long flowing hair in the red kimono. While Rin stares at the people who walks by, Kenji seemed to keep his eyes focus on something at the upper level of the mall. Without a word, he lead her up the escalators and straight into a store.

There were woman clothing of many different colors of which Kagome would wear. There were long skirts, short skirts, pants, shirts, tops, and shoes of many different styles. Kenji walked straight to a woman at the cash register with Rin standing close behind.

"Did you need help with something sir?" ask the woman who seems to be in her late thirties.

"Hai." Kenji answer simply back at the woman.

"Ah, may it be that this girl needed something to wear?" she ask again as she looks at Rin from head to toe knowing the answer from the way that she was dressed.

" Hai."

"Alright then, right this way. I have just the thing for her." the woman say to the both of them as they follow her into the back room. Rin had tried on many outfits and some seemed to be quite to big, and quite to small. But most of what she had tried on was a satisfying style. The outfits would fit her nicely showing her slimness and the curves of her body. After two hours of trying on many styles, Kenji purchased all the ones that fitted her best and they walked out of store with Rin in a baby-blue turtle neck sweater and a pair of white pants.

They were walking across the floor as they came across a window with a dummy in a knee length dress. The outfit was a matching two piece of peach tone and pearl pink. The top was a sleeveless with a v-neck shape that goes across the waste. Rin stares at the dummy in the outfit and then back again at Kenji who seems to be deep in thoughts.

"Kenji-sama?" Rin said his name as he snaps back into reality. Kenji swallow and glance at Rin.

"There's one more thing that I have to do. Stay here." Kenji said to her as he left her outside of the store carrying the shopping bags with him. Rin walked to the edge of the balcony and stare down at all the people who were below her. There were kids playing, kids yelling, and fighting. And the mothers would always had to stop them from crying for not getting what they want.

Finally, Rin stares down at the coffee shop and saw that man in white again. The one who had tried to get his men's to kill her because of a punch; the one who was known as Saki. He was purchasing something from the Jeweler shop for the two girls who were on each side of his arms. One of the bodyguard men stares up to where Rin was standing and pat his partner on his shoulder and then whispers to him about the girl.

Both of them looks up at her, while Rin turns weary and stood up straight. One of them turn to get his boss while the other kept his eye on the girl in baby-blue. Saki walked out of the shop and stare at the girl for no more than three seconds and snap his fingers as a signal for his men's to follow the girl. Rin scooted back from where she was standing while Saki had his men's claiming up the escalators to where she was.

As the two of them came closer to Rin, her heart started pounding faster and faster. She looked around for any signs of Kenji, but he was no where in sight. She would run into the store herself for safety, but she didn't know how the doors were used. One of the men had made it up the stairs leaving Rin in a rush of panic. As he got closer to her, she turn around and bumped into another one who was dressed identical to the one who was before her.

"You're coming with us little lady." he said to her as they both held her by the arms dragging her along with them. Rin tried to wriggle free and attempted to scream for help, but before she had the chance to, she felt a hard piece of cold heavy metal against her waist. She was assuming that the object was the same object that she use to fire at Toshi. All she could do now is hope for the best as her lips trembles with fear.

*****

Kenji held the bag of the purchased garment along with the others as he felt a tingle of bitterness inside of him. Something wasn't right, something was certainly wrong. Then, just as he walked from the register, he stop and can sense that Rin was no longer where he had left her. He can smell fear from her and can smell a different scent along with hers. Kenji drop the shopping bags and flew out the glass doors.

Rin was no longer where he had left her and he can feel his demon blood inside boiling. His demonic side was starting to kick in as he clenched his left fist and held onto the balcony with his right. He then, can feel the itch on the sides of his cheeks while closing his eyes, trying to keep Rin's scent in present. As he popped his eyes open, a flash of red from his demon vision ran through his eyes like a sheet of red plastic paper from a 3-D vision goggle. Blood ran from the clenching of his left fist and crumbs of metal and wood fell to the floor from the crumbling of the balcony.

He then ran after her scent in great speed down the escalators knocking over people, but he didn't care, not while his Rin was in danger. The mall customers yells profanity at him while he follow Rin's scent down the long hallway of the mall. Her scent was getting stronger, and the closer her scent was, the angrier he became knowing that she was in great fear.

Kenji escape the hall through a door which leads to a storage room. The storage room holds brooms, hangers, censers, and box of merchandises. As he walked through the isle of boxes, he spotted her being hold back by two guys who were dressed in black and another one who pulls out a shock. Her mouth was covered by the man who was to her right from screaming and the other one holds a gun to her waist to keep her in their control.

Just as the man who holds the shock was about to inject the needle in Rin's arm, he felt a pain of punch from the side of his cheek. The man was knocked over losing the needle while the one with the gun tries to fire at Kenji. Kenji ducked the gun fire sending the bullet right through the wall. Kenji punch him in the nose and took the gun from him leaving him with a bleeding nostril.

The third guy took Rin hostage covering her mouth and took out a gun, threatening Kenji to stay back and drop his gun.

"Stay back or else she dies." He pointed out to him.

"Let her go…" He said as he took a step closer. The man tempts to pull the trigger as Kenji stops. The other two guys got up and jumped onto Kenji as Rin was being dragged backwards by the man towards the way they came from.

*****

The man dragged Rin out the storage door and out to the hall of the mall again. A woman in a white sweater screams as she sees' Rin being taken as hostage. Just a few seconds later when they came out, shoppers around them started screaming and pointing their fingers at them. The kidnapper point his gun in the air and fire three times as the people started yelling and screaming, running every where in every direction towards the exit.

Security was being release from their offices as fire drills rings throughout the whole building. He fires at the securities killing them and then blends in with the people as he holds onto Rin's arm he drags her along with him.

*****

Kenji finally knocked out the two men's leaving them in pain as he left the storage room to find Rin with a gun in hand. When he came out of the room, people was scattering all over the mall. Although he seems to be in a human form, his youkai sense's were strong to keep Rin's scent in presents. He follow straight down the long hall and claimed up the stairs onto the third floor where the kidnapper had taken Rin. He finally spotted her with her right arm being pulled along with the kidnapper.

The kidnapper dragged Rin into a restaurant as he fires his gun to get the people out. Kenji paste up and also enters the restaurant. A flash of memory came back to Kenji as he jumps onto the tables and ran across from it knocking over the kidnapper with his elbow. Rin fell onto the ground as the kidnapper drops his gun from the fall over.

***Flashback***

"Sesshoumaru-sama!!!" Rin yelled out her lords name as she was being driven away by the carriage. Sesshoumaru set his injured mate on the ground immediately at the sound of Rin's voice. He took off in a flash through the trees and towards the direction of Rin's voice as Mizukies turquoise eyes darks after Sesshoumaru.

Sesshoumaru ran through the woods as he listens to the sound of the carriage being driven off. There, on the road was the white carriage made of marble and wheels that's made of gold. The door of the carriage had a purplish crescent moon on it and at the center of the ball of each wheel, holds a royal blue gem stone.

Sesshoumaru jumps from tree to tree trying to catch up with the carriage without any doubts of running into anything. He ran next to the carriage and jumped from the last tree and onto the carriage, knocking it over. From inside, he heard Rin yelled once as the carriage flips over. The two white horses that ran away with the carriage fell to the ground causing the ground to thunder.

Sesshoumaru rushes over to take Rin out of the white carriage as the two horses straddles to stand up. Rin received some cuts on her arms and another cut across the side of her forehead. Sesshoumaru finally got Rin out of the carriage and lay her down on his lap. His golden eyes darks from her face to her arms as he wipes the line of blood away from her check. The girl carefully opened her eyes and held a hand up to touch her lords demon ones.

"Rin?" He said her name, as the expressionless girl just stares up at him. A stream of memories flashes in his mind as he remembers the first time he revived the girl, and when she opened her eyes from her long sleep when he took her back from the future. From the looks of her expression, he wonders if he would ever see this little human open her eyes again.

"No!" he tells himself as he inhales feeling satisfy that she was ok.

***End of Flashback***

Kenji quickly grabbed Rin's arm as they exited the restaurant. The kidnapper got up from where he had fell and grabbed his gun and ran after the two of them. Kenji was dragging Rin behind him as he heard a gun shot being made from behind them. There were still people running from the mall and that shot has just ended an innocent customers life. He dragged Rin down the escalators with many other people.

The kidnapper was just behind their tail and made another few shoots, sending the shoppers to ducked down from where they were standing. Kenji grabbed onto Rin's small waist as he pulls her into the plastic middle where it divides the two escalators from going up and down. They were both on their sides as they slid down the middle and Kenji shoots back at the kidnapper with his own gun that he took from the other two guys.

Rin and all the people who were around them covers their ears while the shooting took place. Rin and Kenji reached the bottom of the second floor where they had shop and tries to run back to where they came from, but the kidnapper himself slide's down the same way and grabbed onto Rin's hair before they could run. Rin let out a scream while Kenji went for many punches trying to force the man to let go of Rins hair.

After the third punch, he had finally let go of Rin, but he sent a kick in Kenji's way which Kenji blocked it with his arms, but had his gun flying into the air. The two guys fought as the girl runs for cover. Rin ran to a near by tree and squat down watching the fight as it took place.

Kenji grabbed the gun that was on the floor and shot towards Rin's kidnapper. The man screams with pain as it hits his right shoulder; the man shoots back at Kenji. Kenji ran to where Rin was hiding and grabs her by the arm as they ran again. With Rin's slow pace, they couldn't run much faster. Kenji grabbed a skateboard from the skateboard booth and had Rin on top of it, while Kenji himself was on top of her protecting her from the gun fires.

They skated down the long hall with Kenji on top shooting back at the kidnapper. The man ran after the two, but then soon gave up for the police who has enter the building. He runs along with the crowd and soon, the officers has lost him.

*****

Kenji and Rin stops nearby the store where Kenji had dropped the shopping bags. He looks down upon the girl who still has her eyes shut tightly from the gun-fires and fisted her hands.

"It's ok…" Kenji said softly to the girl as she opens her eyes slowing, scanning her surroundings. People were stilling trying to escape the building and the fire drills were still ringing. Kenji got off of the girl and helped her up. Kenji went back into the store with Rin following close behind. He picked up the bags that was still on the ground and they left with the crowd.
