PART 2
8888888888888888888888
Kagome came to the impressing building. She walked rather slowly not really trusting her shaky and jello like legs. She had surprised herself at even being able to walk at all. Without any special abilities, anyone could feel the uneasiness coming in waves off of her little form, as if trembling and sweaty hands wasn't enough proof. Her poor little heart was beating wildly in her rib cage echoing even in her ears.
Passing through the glass doors she felt the eyes of the workers and hopefully future co-workers on her. That really didn't help to calm her fried nerves. Some of the men gave her little lustful glances that made her grit her teeth in frustration. That's why she didn't like to wear these kind of clothes. But to work in this kind of business and to be the personal assistant of Takahashi, one of the most important men in Japan, she had to present herself well and show a little of herself. That didn't sit well with her either but she had to do it.
She continued to walk before stopping at the desk of the monitor's control. The man was so absorbed by what he was doing behind the desk that he didn't even raise his head towards her. Kagome took a deep breath before starting to speak. She didn't have a choice, she didn't have any idea where the appointment was in this huge building.
“Hm...Hi.” Kagome said.
After one or two seconds which seem liked an eternity to poor Kagome, the man acknowledged her existence raising his eyes to her. The most capturing green eyes clashes on her deep blue eyes. Kagome could feel her breath catch in her throat under the intense stare of the man, if you could call him that. She felt the hair on the back of her neck rise with the oh so common sensation. He was youkai. Kaede warned her that most of the workers in the building were youkai, like her possible future boss. That, however, didn't stop her body from reacting to the close proximity between his youkai and her purity, her heart rate accelerated.
Sensing her uneasiness, green eyed youkai put down his pen and paper and offered her a smile.
“Good Afternoon. How can I help you?” He asked. At that moment her eyes fell on what he had been doing that was so interesting. To her disbelief she saw...CROSSWORDS! She didn't believe it. Her thoughts were cut off by his voice.
“Hn? OH! I wished to know where the interviews are taking place please.” Kagome said hearing her voice quavering. She almost winced at her own stupidity. She had to calm down or she would never survive this interview.
“Are you alright Miss?” His eyes flashing concern at her.
“H-hai. I'm fine. Never been to a place like this before, you know with some many of you...I mean, I'm fine. Can you just tell me which floor it is please?” Kagome asked feeling completely stupid now.
“Are you terrozing your new co-worker Shippo?” Came a silky voice right behind Kagome. She gasped turning to come face to face with a purple amused eyes. Human. Kagome noted. The green eyed youkai, Shippo obviously, sighed exasperate.
“Am not. And don't you have some work to do Miroku?” Shippo asked. The man named Miroku smiled brightly.
“Of course I have but I couldn't go back to work before I said hello to this beautiful woman, now could I?” He asked. Shippo sighed again shaking his head.
“Can I have your name please Miss?” He asked.
“Kagome. Higurashi Kagome.” She saw him pass rapidly through the list of names of people admitted to the interviews.
“ Higurashi... Higurashi. AH! Here you are. You may go ahead Miss Higurashi. Take the elevator to the seventh floor. Good Luck.” He smiled warmly up at her. Kagome couldn't help but smile back, feeling part of her anxiousity fleeing.
“Thanks...” She began but froze when she felt something grabbing her rear. Someone was …groping her. Her blood boiled in her veins and without a thought she turned and slapped the offender rather forcefully. Miroku fell on the ground from the force of the blow. He looked up at the angry Kagome with a dreamy smile, his hand rubbing his throbbing cheek.
“It was worth it.” He said. She looked at him open mouthed doubtful of his reply. He seemed almost happy. She glared down at him then turned towards Shippo. She smiled at him the most she could with her teeth gritted.
“Thank You Shippo.” She said and walked away muttering `pervert' under her breathe. Shippo got up from his place shaking his head at Miroku. “He will never learn.” He returned to his crosswords. Kagome's words however kept playing in his mind. He was sure she was about to say 'so many youkais in the same place' before she cut herself off. But by her scent, he was sure that she was only human. Strange.

Kagome angrily pushed the button for the elevator. The nerve of that hentai groping her like that. She waited for everyone to exit the elevator before entering it herself. She pressed the button for the seventh floor. Her hands began to shake again. Her nerviousness towards this interview were coming back in full force. She took deep breathes. It was ridiculous. If she was like that just with the though of the interview, how would she be able to pass it? She groaned in despair. The elevator opened. She took one last deep breath before exiting. She could see from where she was, a door with a room where she would have to wait for her turn.
……………
She walked into the room. That second she realized she must have been in the wrong place. First thing first, the room was full of only female youkais. Kaede never said anything about this. Maybe she had made an error and Mr. Takahashi wanted a youkai assistant not a human. Worse, she wasn't just your average human. She was a miko. On the other hand so was Kaede so maybe she still had a chance.
The instant she had entered all the women had stopped speaking locking their gazes on her. If looks could kill, she would have been dead serveral times over. If she did anything to any of these women other than breath the same air she was unaware. She didn't have any idea why they were all looking at her like that.
She gulped, trying to forget that she was in a war zone and she seemed to be the enemy. She sat down not too close but not at the opposite side of the room either. She wouldn't show them that she was creepied out. She knew they had to feel it but she refused to show it. A few more moments of glares passed then the conversations resumed. Kagome had difficulties, not because of the nervousness of the interview, but not to jump from her seat and purify the asses of the bitches who were currently in the same room. The women didn't even whisper or speak low enough for her not to hear them. No, they choose to speak so she missed nothing. Apparently the glares she received were because the women thought she was pretty in a human sort of way of course but that she had no chance in seducing Takahashi. Kagome growled to herself. Like she would do that! She was here because of her qualifications not to sell her body for the job.
……………
After a little time passed Kaede came into he room with drinks and biscuits. She informed that the interviews would begin late. When she had laid her tray on the table she walked over towards her 'niece'.
“Are you alright child? You seem tense.” Kaede asked. Kagome sighed and tried to calm herself.
“I'm okay Kaede. Its just...you know.” She said looking at the others in the room before returning her gaze to Kaede. The old Miko chuckled.
“I see child, but don't mind them. You have the same right to pass this interview as them.” Kaede said.
“Yeah I know. You warned me about almost all the people working here being youkai too, but still...” Kagome said with a sigh.
“Hai, Hai. I know. So how is your mother?” She asked. Kagome smiled at the old woman.
“She is fine. Everyone is fine at home Kaede.” Kagome said.
“Good, good. I have to go back to work.” Kaede said.
“Hai. Bye Obaa-chan.” Kagome said with a small smile. After the old miko left, Kagome could feel the hair on the back of her neck rise from the power of the glares sent her way. One of the youkai finally spoke what all of them must have been thinking.
“Don't think because you know the old hag that plays secretary here that you will have the job. You haven't a chance in front of us human. One of us will have the job but you, you don't have a chance. Lord Takashashi is known for not liking humans.” The woman said. The rest giggled between themselves. Kagome took serveral deep breathes and decided not to reply to the attack. She didn't like that they were in the room with her. When the youkai saw that she would not answer their verbal attacks, they settled down again and began gossiping.
…………………….
A few hours later…
…………………….
Kagome was still in the room with the youkai women, and just three already left the room. The interviews had started two hours late. Kagome felt like she was about to explode. The youkai women here didn't seem to interview for a job of personal assistant but whores for a porn movie. They passed the last couple of hours speaking of all the sexual things they would be able to do for the Takahashi. Kagome was really regretting leaving her comfortable realm under her sheets to come to his replica of Hell.
She was disgusted. If that was what she had to do to get this job, famous or not, Takashashi could go to hell for all she cared. She still had hope. If the man was like that, Kaede wouldn't work for him and certainly would not have spoken of the available job to her. However the women in this place made her really ill. Before she strangled one or two of them she decided to get out of the room for a moment. When she was out of it, she spotted Kaede working at her desk and walked toward her. The old woman felt her close and raised her head.
“Everything alright child?” Kaede asked.
“Not at all. I'm alone in a room with a band of...a band of...” Kagome couldn't finish her sentence.
“Whores?” Kaede proposed for her.
“Exactly yes. They are all talking about what they could do for Mr. Takahashi for hours. And I speak about sexual things with all details. If I stay one more minute, I don't know what I'll do!” She growled. The old woman chuckled.
“Hai, hai. I understand your...problem child. You have to understand that Mr. Takahashi who leads the firm now is the elder son of the original owner. He is young, rich, quite good looking man you can say, but most importantly, he's single.” Kaede said.
“So they are there in hope he will fall in love with them at first sight?” Kagome asked. Kaede again chuckled.
“Not exactly. Each of them hope that he will just lust after them. If one of them could put her claws on him, she would be one of the most important women in Japan.”
“That is just...absolutely awful. They made me sick by their outrageous clothes, too much make up and most of all their slutty language. Apparently, not one of them had any degree. They are just daughters of rich people and by sex want to gain more money.” Kagome said disgusted.
“Exactly.” Kaede said. Kagome sighed.
“Where is the WC here? I need to wash up a little.” Kagome asked.
“I'm sorry Kagome, but the toilets at this floor are under maintenance. You'll have to go to the fifteeth floor to find working ones.” Kagome looked at the elevators and whimpered.
“Too many people. I'll have to take the stairs.” Kagome said.
“It's normal. It's getting late and a lot of people are finished with work.” Kaede said.
“Yeah but I hate stairs. There are already enough at home.” Kagome whined. Kaede chuckled.
“Listen my child, you see the third one? The one nobody seems to use?” Kagome nodded. “You can use it. It is slower and smaller than the two others and without all the mirrors and all but it works well. For now, Mr. Takahashi is out, apparently he didn't seem to like the women of this room more then you. I don't know in how much he will be back or even if he will be back. Difficult day you could say. But you have the time to go down freshen up and calm down before coming back here.” Kaede said.
“H-he left?! You are trying to say that I supported all those whores for hours maybe for nothing?” Kagome asked. Kaede smiled apologetically.
“It is a possibility Kagome. I'm still not sure. It is getting late and almost all the building will be empty in more or less of fifteen minutes. I will leaving in a few minutes myself.” Kaede said.
“Okay, Okay. Calm down Kagome. I will do like you said Kaede. If when I come back and you are not here, I will call you tomorrow.” Kagome said.
“Okay. Bye child.” Kaede said.
8888888888888888888888
After taking the elevator and getting in the bathroom Kagome tried to calm down. She was stressed like never before because of this interview and dealing with all those whores. She splashed some more water on her face. She would be okay. Everything would be okay. She had her degree for the job and she was certain the others did not so she had all her chances for the job at the end. She didn't know how much time had passed while she tried to smooth and reassure herself within the bathroom. When she came out, almost all the offices on the fifteeth floor were dark. She walked towards the elevator and after some hesitation, took the same little one as before. Some people who were working at this stage were waiting for the elevator too and she preferred to be left alone before jumping back into the lion cage full of bitches again.
………………….
She climbed in the elevator just at the moment the door almost closed on her too lost in her thoughts. In the corner of her eyes, she saw that she wasn't alone. Youkai, she noted. Powerful Youkai. She saw silver white hair and golden eyes. The gaze and cold exterior he gave off made her shiver and turn away rapidly towards the buttons. The seventeenth floor button was switched on, he was going to the same floor as she was. Just great.
She cleared her throat nervously.
“Hm..Ano..Hm...Hi.” Kagome said. The impression the youkai gave her made her very anxious and made it difficult to breath. Her holy powers were on the edge. Silence. She turned slightly to look at him when the door closed, since he didn't answer her. But he didn't even spare her a glance. At that, she fumed. He could at least reply. That wouldn't have killed him. Jerk.
And without even having a conscience thought of it she grumbled under her breath.
“Arrogant youkai.”
Not a great idea when the 'arrogant youkai' in question heard her clearly. Apparently, she was lucky today in a way, since she just insulted a powerful youkai she was currently alone with him in an elevator with no possible escape, and yet she breathed still. A sudden noise brought her from her thoughts with a jolt. Kagome found herself on her rear at the feet of the famous 'arrogant youkai' who succeeded to stay on his feet, the jerk. The elevator just stopped
...between the fifteenth and sixteenth floor.
