InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Jump Over the Wall of Freedom ❯ Doubts ( Chapter 10 )

Chapter 10: Doubts

 

Disclaimer: Did I say I owned Inuyasha, The Berenstain Bears or Monopoly? It was either a joke or I was really drunk…

 

 

(A/N: I was so excited I decide to post the chapter early, so enjoy!!)

 

“speaking”

`thinking'

 

“I shall be living for a few days, take care of Rin in the meantime”.

 

Kagura had to remind herself to breathe, she could not even think about moving. Her knees felt weak but she was not sure she would be able to drag herself to sit on the bed, all she could do was instinctively touch her lips while thinking `why would that cold bastard kiss me?!'

 

When the wind sorceress came back to her senses she ran after Sesshomarou, but as expected he was nowhere to be seen. It was an infuriated Kagura who joined the still arguing Miroku and Sango.

 

“Has he been here?!” she more yelled than asked.

 

“And who might you be talking about my dearest?” Miroku asked, glad to get a break from Sango.

 

“Oh! The worst kind of pervert, the kind who unlike you hides and strikes when you least except them to” was Kagura's answer. She then took a deep breath and said “I take it he hasn't been here, YOU CAN RUN BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM ME SESSHOMAROU!!!” she screamed on her way out of the door.

 

“What's with her?” a puzzled Sango asked.

 

“Hormones” Miroku answered with a dismissive gesture of the hand.

 

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000

 

Kagura, Miroku, Sango, Kohaku and Rin enjoyed a nice breakfast together. Afterwards the younger ones were sent to school and the three adults sat in the living room. The two girls sat next to each other with Miroku facing them.

 

After some time of peaceful silence, Kagura spoke up “Hum Miroku has there been any spotting of you know who lately? I mean since I've been here the bastard has kept me away from everything”.

 

Sango gave a warning glance at the pseudo monk, which did not escape the wind sorceress, who asked “what's wrong?” She then locked her crimson eyes on Miroku “You better start spilling otherwise you know what I'll do to you…” she said flicking her fan open.

 

“Must you always use violence to get to the point?” he asked jokingly. But his face suddenly became grave as he said “Fine I'll tell you. Anyway you would find out sooner or later. Well, there has been another murder, a man named Hakkaku was burnt alive in a house fire. The house in question had been wiped clean of its valuable including a rare African antique chimpanzee mask”. The only thing left were a card with VS written on and…”

 

“The scent of a spider demon” Kagura finished for him, her fair alabaster skin becoming visibly paler.

 

A worried Sango simply said “I'm sorry but lord Sesshomarou instructed me not to say a word. We are investigating the matter as of now.”

 

`Is this why he has to leave hurriedly? Is he trying to protect me by not telling me? But what is he thinking; I mean I could help…That idiot!'

 

“Hum Kagura are you alright? Maybe I shouldn't have said anything. Don't worry I'm sure you'll be fine, you're safe as long as you stay here. I mean looks like Lord Sesshomarou did not skimp on security measures.” He said the last part while looking at Sango square in the eyes, which earned him a slight blush from the demon slayer.

 

Miroku than got up and said cheerfully “I'm very sorry ladies but I have to go to work.” And eying Kagura he added “I not only have to take pictures for articles but also actually write them, which kills me, you know me I`ve never been a good writer”.

 

“Sorry I really made things hard on you right?” Kagura apologized.

 

“No not really, except that Urasue is always breathing down my neck. Yura could help but I think the only way to get her to would be to sacrifice my precious ponytail. But if I want to escape the old hag I just hang out in Kikyou's office pretending to need help with an article.” a grinning Miroku answered, as he got up and got ready to live.

 

“Once a pervert…” Kagura started “always a pervert” Sango ended with a deep sigh. The two girls than laughed while showing the young man to the door. After Miroku left Kagura headed for the the gardens and Sango went in the control room to monitor the different security cameras.

 

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000

 

After dinner Kagura, Sango, Rin and Kohaku played a game of Monoply and when Rin became too sleepy the wind sorceress put her to bed despite the little girl's protests.

 

As a compromise Kagura read to her one of the Berenstain Bears' books aloud (yeah I babysat my neighbor's kid today and I had to read three of those!). After she was done Rin went to a corner of her room where was a shelf covered in stuffed animals. After a few seconds of hesitating she picked one and came back on the bed.

 

The little girl had a bright smile when she said “here you go Miss Kagura, this is the first gift for your baby. Rin loves this teddy bear but she wants you to have it”. Kagura smiled too and accepted the gift.

 

Then Rin rubbed the bump on Kagura's belly and commented “soon I will have a family just like the bears in the book. When you have your baby Rin will have a little brother or sister. You don't have to worry lord Sesshomarou kept all of uncle Inuyasha's baby clothes and even his crib.

I don't think you'll be able to use the hats because of the holes for the ears. But the clothes are really nice, sometimes father lets me play with them and my dolls, but Master Jaken complains because he has to bring all of it from and back to the attic.” The little girl then giggled, but stopped when she saw the look of utter shock on Kagura's face.

 

“What's wrong Miss Kagura? Did Rin say something wrong? Are you mad? Rin is sorry. Don't worry I'm sure father or uncle won't mind, if they do we'll just have to go shopping for new nice things, we could also bring miss Sango with us, she's very nice, Rin likes her”.

 

Kagura muttered a quick good night and something about a headache before running to her room. As she sat on the bed she could feel her heartbeat slow down a bit. She was still shocked because of Rin's innocent comment and thought

 

`How could I be so stupid? I allowed myself to set in this pleasant environment, forgetting about the fact that I still have a fucking life to lead. I mean I have to get a job and a place to live in order to raise my baby! I can't stay here forever! I need to find a way to free myself from Naraku once and for all.'

 

`Yes but your dear lord did say he was going to help, right? So no worries!' Kagura's inner demo said entering her inner battle.

 

`I know that but at what price? For crying out loud Rin is already picturing her life as my baby's big sister, what can I do? I really am falling hard for that kid, and her father is another problem.'

 

`That's the least you can say. He hasn't left your thoughts, since the day you got here. Especially after your little “physical contacts”' her inner demon teased.

 

`I know that, but how does he feel? I mean what are his plans with me? He's so secretive he never told me how long I could stay here…'

 

Her thoughts on her future were interrupted as she heard the giant front door being slammed. She reached for her fan and ran towards the grand hall. On her way there she was joined by Kohaku and Sango who had also heard and held their weapons close.

Sango turned towards her little brother and told him to go to Rin's room and not leave until he was ordered otherwise. The obedient youngster simply nodded and made his way to his classmate.

 

Once the two women got to the front door, they just stood there for a few seconds not being able to move or talk. Nothing could have ever prepared them for what was standing in front of them…

 

 

 

To be continued…

 

(A/N: End of this chapter. How was it? Little cliffy I know I'm evil hahaha!!! I wonder what or rather who could be at the door…Next chapter will be called Injuries of the body and heart. Until next time Bye! Don't forget to leave me a little review!)

 

 

 

IDEA 1: Kagura, and Kagome are two best friends who dream to open a business together. Since Kagura is the eldest she was sent to ask her bank for a loan. When it turns out that Sesshomarou Takahahi, the bank director is a real jerk, they give up any hope.

But sometime later he calls Kagura and makes her a devilish proposal: he will give her one million dollars if she bears him a male heir…(My best friend is harassing me to write this one, and I already have a loose outline. So I just might just write it but I still need your help to make my final decision). The title would be along the lines of `Indecent proposal' (no ties with the movie)

 

 

IDEA 2: Instead of having Sesshy save Kagura all the time I thought of something else. Toga the famous millionaire and head of the Takahashi corporation is tired of his elder son's attitude with the younger one. He then decides to teach Sesshomarou a lesson and throws him out the house and disinherits him.

Forced to fend for himself Sesshy runs inside the secretary he fired a few months ago. Will Kagura put aside her angerand resentment towards him and take him in to live with her and her two children the cold teenager Kanna and the pest Hakudoushi? (of course, who wouldn't help a Sesshy in distress?) and what is this about her ex father in law Naraku? I have a little idea of where I'm headed with this one too.

 

 

IDEA 3: I was watching the movie 10 things I hate about you with Julia Stiles and Heath Ledger for like the thousandth time (stupid cable reruns) and something poped in my head: Inuyasha and Kagome have been dating for a while and want to get married but there is one family law that states that the younger brother can only marry after the older has. Taking matter in their own hands, Kagome and Inuyasha play matchmaker for Sesshomarou and guess who's the lucky girl who gets to try to seduce the ice block, yep you guessed it Kagura. This is the idea I have the less inspiration for. I don't know where I'm going with this, or who else will be in it, hell I don't even know if they'll be demons yet but…

 

 

So it's all up to you guys, IDEA 1, 2 or 3? Let your voice be heard!!! Once again I will only start writing AFTER I finish JUMP I know I'll never be able to write several stories at once.

 

Well until next update bye.
