Location Florida
Sesshoumaru looked through his mirror at his little girl she was sleep, he didn't mean to get into an argument with her mother again but it had to be said. Kagome had hurt him badly so long ago that every time he looked at her he couldn't forgive her. It was apparent that she wanted him to talk but what could he say `I'm ok after you lied to me when I told you when we first met that I don't trust easily'
Ok maybe he could have said that instead of bring up his currently lover Kagura who couldn't hold a candle to her. But he wanted her to feel what he felt every time he was around her like he wanted to strangle her but couldn't because Rin was in the room. Speaking of his daughter she was on the back seat knocked out because she had cried herself to sleep. Actually it was Inuyasha who calmed her down after they left the awful place, he only hoped that when Rin grew up that she would never turn out like her mother.
`The worse part about it is that I love her even the bright orange jumpsuit' he kept pondering the situation further he only wanted what was best for Rin he even took in Kagome's brother Souta because of Kagome's father. He hated that he still cared about her even though she seemed like she didn't give a damn about him. Today though her reaction was shocking, he expected her to argue with him like she always did but she didn't.
`No she just cried when walking out the door because of me' he thought maybe he was too hard on her or maybe he was hard on himself because no matter what he still loved her. He thought back to a time where they were truly happy, when they finally opened up to each other about how they really felt. The time when they made love was almost magical just to find out three weeks later that she was the world renowned con-artist. Now they were always at each other's throats over anything they could think of while staying calm in front of Rin at the same time. He knew that Rin adored her mother so much that it always made him somewhat jealous that she could already connect a few of the dots. After Kagome left them she cried and didn't even want to hold his hand going out of the door, when Inuyasha met up with them again she ran to him to cry saying that he was the bad guy. That moment literately pissed him off because he was the one who gave her everything she truly wanted…
`But her mother' he thought, Sesshoumaru was never in the mood to travel to America every two months to see Kagome but he did that for his daughter, an innocence person who just wanted to see her.
As they pulled up to the hotel his thoughts drifted again to when he first found out about Rin, he wasn't the most joyous person at first but she needed at least one parent to raise her.
Actually he questioned whether or not he was the father of the pregnant woman…
Flashback
“Of all of the people why did I have to be the one to see you Kagome?” he said as he stared into he blue eyes while using the jail phones.
“Because obviously I have something important to tell you” he heard her stop looking into his golden eyes. For the first time he saw her become nervous he wondered what was this all about.
“I should just come out and say it”
“Yes you should because my patience is wearing thin Kagome” he saw the new look on her face after he said that she was smirking now like she was determined to tell him now.
“I'm pregnant and it's yours”
“No it isn't Kagome you fooled me once but not again, I'm still waiting on the three million you stole from me” he said with a grin.
“Ok I'll prove it to you, first I have only been with two men you and Hiten, second Hiten and I always had protection on and to be sure I didn't get pregnant with his child I was taking birth control” she said ignoring his first comment.
“When we started dating I decided for some reason that I didn't need the birth control so much and we were never protected” she ended her speech with a triumph smile on her face because she knew she was right he usually didn't wear condoms, pulling out always worked out for him. But that night was different between the both of them therefore he saw no need to do his usual routine.
“Dammit fine, just to let you know I'm still taking a DNA test after the child is born, I still don't fully trust you” he saw her smirk .
“I wouldn't expect anything less from you Sesshoumaru”
“Indeed, now if you'll excuse me then I'll be on my way Kagome correctional facilities in America make me sick” as he started to leave she stopped him by shouting.
“Not before you promise me that you will pay for the best medical care Sesshoumaru, I will not have anything happen to our baby because of lack of proper care”
“Fine Kagome I help you this last time and Souta's fine by the way”
“Excellent has father tried to find him” she said with anger in voice.
“Yes but by the time the idiot found out we had already left for Japan, and he's adjusting well your mother would be proud”
“I know she would be if she were alive, she looked sad but only for a moment, it's no sense of dwelling on things”
“`I'll see you later Kagome” Sesshoumaru said as he got up and left with no room for real goodbyes. He had to think about his future which was already cluttered with Souta now he would have to deal with a crying child.
`His child though, his heir would be born of a woman he rejected a long time ago'
Seven months later
A child's cry could be heard through out a hospital room. Sesshoumaru sat in the waiting room with a bored expression on his face he just wanted to see his child.
“If it's even mine” he muttered when he got back to Japan he would get a DNA test just to be sure the baby was his. Some part of him knew that the baby was his, it was one of the reasons why he made special provisions for Kagome. He made sure she was taken care of as he promised making sure she got all of her check-ups.
“Mr. Tashio your daughter has been clean and is now with her mother if you want to see her” the nurse said with a smile on her face. He ignored her look and walked down the hall to the room called 69.
`So ironic' he thought. His expression still stayed the same until he finally say the little girl in her mother's arms sleeping he came up to her and gently asked for her and Kagome complied.
“Hey there, I'm your Daddy” he said softly to her and her eyes somehow opened a beautiful blue color graced him.
`Just like your mother's' he thought and then she smiled at him.
`Just like me' he now thought Sesshoumaru would still get the test just to be sure but he knew that she was his. Just looking at her made him change his mind about what he said before a crying child wasn't an annoyance but a blessing. From there he had mad his decision he would take care of the beautiful child in his arms, he would be her family because her mother couldn't…
`And I still wouldn't take that away' He thought as he got out of his car to get her sleeping form out of the child seat, she unconsciously snuggled closer to him. Sesshoumaru smirked at that especially since he was the bad guy. He gave the valet attendant his keys and went up to the tenth floor of the Florida hotel this was his personal place. Every time he came to this hotel he was showered with whatever he wanted, it was the perks of being rich he assumed.
His great hotel business chain was being run by two old friends named Sango and Miroku Taki the only two people he trusted with it. Kagome found out he was rich once he dumped her and stole three million dollars from one of the accounts he set up by using an unknown female to help her. The telephone rang interrupting his thoughts.
“Mr. Tashio we apologize for disturbing you but a Mr. Hojo Suki is asking to speak to you” and here is the part where he frowned, Sesshoumaru needed no interruptions but Hojo never called unless it was an emergency so he decided to take it.
“Put him on the line Roger” he spoke in decent English. Sesshoumaru waited until the man connected him to his agent and friend. Hojo was one of the only men who gave him a second chance when he was doomed to go to prison for life. Not even Inuyasha knew about his very dark life, where he put Kikyo's real mother Midoriko in a coma because she was a nosy international agent who tried cracking down on assassins. It was one of the reasons why he and Kikyo never got along because he knew of her true past, and she knew of his. He softly placed Rin on the couch temporarily knowing that she wouldn't really move, and proceed to hear his slightly annoying voice.
“Hello agent Sesshoumaru how are you fairing on this wonderful night”
“Very well until you decided to call Hojo” he said just a little peeved.
“Then I've done my job” he said chuckling at Sesshoumaru.
“What is it now Hojo?”
“First turn on your television to any channel is fine” Sesshoumaru did as he said and turned the T.V. on to see Hiten and Manten at it again this time they were in France. Although there was no connection to them again they were temporarily arrested but released yelling that they would sue the government there. He turned off the television and sighed.
“And what do you want me to do about this Hojo, this is none of my concern because I'm not on this case” he said mockingly.
“Surprise then I asked your supervisor to have you help me out with this one because the thunder brothers are spiraling out of control while staying rich”
“I'm still not helping you, this isn't my type of job”
“If everything goes correctly then Kagome can see you and Rin again like you she's needed on my team” Hojo said completely ignoring his last comment. To him Sesshoumaru was no different than Kagome was both of them did some wrong in their lives Kagome though was more flamboyant about her crimes. In all it took him four years to catch the `Shikon Sisters' as they are sometimes called too bad they weren't anything near pure hearted and now he had no choice but to free them. For once he didn't know what to expect when they got out would they really want to help the man who did everything in his power to get them locked up…
“What the hell does she have to do with me or my daughter?”
“Well since you still love her I don't knowand Rin deserves to see her mother”
“I'll never love her again Hojo, now I will not speak of her anymore nor should you. What is it that you want?”
“First I need you in France to help out with this investigation, and then I want you to secretly find out what you know about all of our agents”
“Is that all?” He asked him with a sigh he loved his job but hated when he didn't have power Hojo just received his power could request anyone to join his team. Then again he was still on probation for his past life so he was anyone's puppet.
“Yes and Sesshoumaru remember I only requested you to come because your are the best just about everything like Inuyasha, I mean you wouldn't be the killing perfection if you weren't great”
“I'll be there Hojo with a grumpy half brother I'm assuming” he said ignoring his last comment
“Yes bring him along he needs to learn more on self control in public,he shot a guy three days ago over losingapokergametha nk goodness the man only had minor injuries”
“I'll be there tomorrow afternoon…Bye Hojo” he said cutting the connection off before he could say anything more, then picked up Rin again this time he moved her to her room in the huge hotel penthouse as he sometimes calls it. Removing the covers first then placing her there Sesshoumaru pulled them back up to her then kissed her on the forehead. He didn't even want to address Inuyasha's actions, although he was becoming more and more like him a completely ass towards everyone, instead he decided to give the last attention to Rin before going to bed.
“Goodnight angel tomorrow is going to be a long day because we have to travel again” he said slightly frowning and then yawned. Sesshoumaru then turned walking to his room and flopped on the bed thinking once again. Yeah he loved his job alright but sooner or later he would need to settle down for good…for his daughter…

Washington D.C before the trip to France 10 am
“Mr. Suki you're asking for a lot here these ladies have been on the run from everyone else and you for a while. When they were sixteen Kikyo impersonated who teacher who was in the office getting her class work for the day” one man said.
“At the time that wasn't a crime, just a bad seed that had a detention but later on both Kagome and Kikyo would only become worse” another man said at the long table of board of directors of the American government he needed their support in this . The unusually 6'1 man stood tall in front of them even though he was scared shitless.
“But that can be changed jail can do that to you”
“Well even if we could release them they would have to go through a clearance from us and a seal from the president”
Now Hojo's patience was wearing thin all of the men who sat in front of him had have gave him great advice when he was starting out as an International Agent. He being a new intern young adult at the time had took every piece to heart, especially Daniel Roberts a retired International Agent who is now serving his country in another way back in America's FBI, he helped him get the position he had now. But now he as well as the other five men were turning their back on him, on something he needed to stop the embarrassment of the world even America. Hiten and Manten hadn't attacked this nation yet but they could at any time and for Hojo he couldn't afford it.
“What do you mean we need a clearance for them and as for the your President's seal you know as well as me that none of you need it, the government was made to sometimes override laws in dire situations”
“Look we just don't want them released Hojo, they have to serve their time here on American soil, do you know how hard it is recover from two Japanese women successfully stealing from you with almost no trace” one man said.
“No but I do know discrimination when I see it agent Jackson he stopped for a moment to collect his thoughts, let me remind you all of something before we go on gentlemen Naraku and I caught these women. The two Japanese women who milked all of you out of millions of dollars by counterfeiting checks and using fake identifies, were caught by two Japanese men.
Two men who were called here to America to solve a case that no American FBI or CIA agent could figure out”
“He is right agent Jackson that last comment was uncalled for they were criminals, just criminals who got away with a lot of stuff” Daniel Roberts said finally speaking up.
“Right and now we need to decide on this case, Hojo if we do let them go then you have to keep them at bay” another man said.
“I'll be able to do that—
“No that's not what he means Hojo, what he is saying is that if you don't succeed at this job or the women run away then we will have no choice but to take your badge or demote you to your earlier status by personal request of your agency” Daniel said with a hint of sadness in his voice.
“Alright I can do that but please grant me my wish and I will not disappoint you at all” he said with confidence ringing in his voice
“Even at the expense of both of the ladies hating you, are you really willing to take that risk?” someone else asked.
“Yes I am willing and ready to take whatever comes my way”
“Very well Hojo but you like every other person who asks for someone's freedom early, will have to wait, we will release them in six months time until then go to France” Daniel Roberts said looking at his old apprentice who is now a young master. He was proud of everything he been doing so far but this job seems to be the hardest from what he's been hearing from his son another International Agent for the American offices these boys are way more dangerous. They will kill you if you happen to look at them the wrong way along with selling illegal things to you while you're dying.
“Alright I'll try to wait for that time to pass” he said with a grim look on his face.
“Now get out of here your new partners Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha are going to need a lot of help with their part of the case” Agent Roberts said smiling at the man silently figuring out the man's game in his own head.
Hojo walked out of the main conference room to catch his flight finally smiling in months he would have the final puzzle for taking down the infamous `thunder brothers.' Because what better way is it to bring down an enemy of the world than to hire another enemy.

Location France
“What happened here?” Sesshoumaru asked in English trying to get any answer he could out of the local French officers. He sat in the lieutenant's bland office with pen and paper waiting for a response from him. Naraku Inuyasha and Ayumi sat in the office with him also with pen and pad trying to get everything.
“Ah Monsieur's Hiten and Manten were suspected of killing three men near their home at the docks but no traces were found therefore we had to release them”
“Did they do anything else, any witnesses who saw something suspicious, or just anything that we can go on here?” Inuyasha said a little impatiently.
“Ah we did have one witness but she ended up not coming forward probably from fear, she has a family and such” he said.
“Lady and Gentlemen why don't we go down to the scene of the crime first” Naraku said looked at the man's face which looked pissed that they were even there investigating the case again but he didn't care. He didn't get any sleep last night even though it was greatly wild one and then he had to catch the next plane to France for the thunder brothers again, his friend was correct they needed to be stopped at least so he could get some `comfortable rest'. This office stuff was Hojo's job he always wanted the action.
“Unless Monsieur you want to accompany us down again we would love that, I mean the case is high profile because of their many espionages but maybe you can help us out” Ayumi said in a sweet voice smiling at him the dark brown haired and eyed girl who stood 5'7 tall for a Japanese woman. Even though she was a bit nosy she always wanted the good in things, she ignored the looks of her fellow colleagues while still trying to stay happy.
“Maybe another time my friend, I take it you can get down there from here” he said pointing to Naraku.
“Yes we should be fine, good day Lieutenant” Naraku said and then they all started to pile out of the office.
“Ok Naraku when we get there what are we looking for” Inuyasha said happy to finally get out of that stuffy office.
“Well brother if you weren't listening then you should know that they we are trying to find clues that the cops couldn't find” Sesshoumaru interrupted.
“And you guys are doing this without me I suppose” they all turned to see Hojo pop up in front of them ready to work. Even he hadn't expected to make it for in time to help but he did and he was ready to take this on.
“The first thing we look for Agents is not figuring out the killing, but it is finding out where in the world Hiten and Manten are staying currently”
“Righttt it's the police's job to do that not ours” Inuyasha said.
“Correct the police and other major country officials do those small jobs we are more…huge scale workers”
“What we need to do is figure out the angle of how they killed three men or women for no reason” said Naraku
“But we need the witness to do it” Ayumi interrupted.
“Not exactly Ayumi, remember that these cases could have something to do with power and who has it, which means that the witness may have been covering the bases for the thunder brothers” said Inuyasha
“Twice in a row Agent Tashio pat yourself on the back” Hojo said smirking while he saw Inuyasha mumble something incoherent about not wanting to be on the case.
“It this why you wanted us to figure out who is working for the brothers” Sesshoumaru said trying to figure it out.
“Yes Sesshoumaru it is for now it is the only way, this area is not for police work people but for playing the mental game of Hiten and Manten the same way we played the game of the Shikon sisters” Hojo finished looking at his new team he only needed two more players and then they would have it.
But for now it was a party….

Two Weeks before Release
“You came to see me again because?” Kikyo questioned with a frown on her face looking at the man in front of her talking into her phone.
“To have you and your sister released in two weeks Higurashi” he said with frown.
“What's the catch Ho-Ho I know that you didn't come here out of the goodness of your heart” she said sarcastically.
“I came to see if both of you would join the International Agents and my team, you will never see a Correctional Facility again”
“Ha join you of all people Ho-Ho you've got to be kidding me I'll stay here until I'm in my forties thank you very much you've wasted your time coming here”
“Have I really Kikyo your mother has gotten out of her coma and misses you dearly you can see her if you are on my team”
“And this is swaying my vote because?”
“Because you care about her like I still care about you sister” he softly mentioned
“Don't you ever say that you bastard, Kagome is my sister and Souta is my little brother not you or her, that ship sunk when she gave me up to that bastard who…Kami I can't think about it”
“I hate that you were in that house just as much as she does but it is no reason why disown us”
“Why not, you did `big' brother I even tried to reach out to you at one point and you know what you said huh?”
“That people like you aren't family they just need to be off of the streets, I remember Kikyo, I was also very stupid by not trying to help out. I should of left the case but I was so selfish for one of the supervising positions that I didn't think of the consequences of my actions. And for that I will always be sorry, so sorry that I don't deserve your forgiveness”
“You're right about that and you will never have it because everything you did was on purpose”
“No I did my job, you were disturbing the peace in the world Kikyo, I was playing my sister's game and I ended it also b---
“By what Hojo, not leaving us alone hounding us until we finally gave up, it wasn't enough for you to confirm Sesshoumaru's suspicions and destroy Kagome's already broken heart. But it was enough for you to finally see us slip up”
“You really weren't well Kikyo nor was Kagome at the time both of you were lost because Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru breaking it off with both of you---
“And now the tables have turned I see big brother” she interrupted ignoring his comment before he finished it now Kikyo laughed loudly.
“Oh how the mighty have fallen Hojo, this is rich you need me to help you catch Hiten and Manten”
“And Kagome too sister I need you both, I have never done something like this before but for once in my life I need my little sister and the other woman who is some of your only family” Hojo even got on his knees for his Kikyo as he kept talking.
“I'm also sorry Kikyo I ever took the case against you, but I was so angry at everyone that I didn't know how to handle it. But I'm here now Kikyo and mom is waiting for you just please do this for me” he finished his statement while watching his sister's reaction she looked like she believed him. This was another thing that he wanted to finally have that relationship with his little sister who was adopted when she was a baby because neither of there parents could `afford' her. A relationship that he first pushed away, Hojo needed it back
“Alright Hojo I'll do this for you for once, come back in two weeks we will be ready and waiting besides Kagome will be pleased to know that she can see her daughter again”
“Good in two weeks you will be given your assignment since you will be released at 6 am in the morning that day for the flight to Japan”
“Fine but for now I have to leave I'll talk to you soon Hojo”
“Likewise Kikyo”

Location: Florida the Release, and the Transport to Japan
In all of three years of jail they were finally free. Kagome couldn't contain herself with pleasure she felt, the first item of business would be to gain sole custody of Rin if she could. Then she would finally go and see her cousins in west city, two other men who kept her sane while she was in jail of course after Rin though. The now twenty four year old woman jumped in her seat like a kid on Christmas as Americans would say.
“How long until we get back to Japan” she said asking one of the agents sitting in the private plane across from her.
“Another thirty minutes Ms. Higurashi just sit tight ok” the female agent said nicely. So far Kagome didn't have to kill anyone yet and that was great she decided to do as she was told and sit back in her seat.
`Hojo must really need us then' she thought grimly and she would eventually have to endure Sesshoumaru again. For once in her life she didn't know how to go about dealing with him, besides the fact that he was an enigma she broke his heart by not telling him the whole truth. At the time they were dating she kept doing he side jobs but when they finally confessed their love for each other she knew then that she had to stop. And she did stop playing her mind games for him but then she had to tell Hiten who told Sesshoumaru three weeks later. In her final act of desperation she staged the biggest counterfeiting act in the U.S. for a year they couldn't catch on to it her sister mourned for her loss of finding true love by helping out unconditionally. No matter what Kagome would always be grateful for her big sister, when she should have went to jail alone because of her breakdown Kikyo went anyway. She remembered the most important thing her sister could ever say to her.
“We are family Kagome and we always will be I'm always here through thick and thin and no matter how many breakdowns you go through I will never break away from you”
To this day she still remembered that saying and if the tables were turned she would be doing the same for her. But she would have to deal with her weak feelings later right now they were starting to land the plane.
“Hey Kiki are you ready for a change” she said playfully but when she saw Kikyo's distance look she knew something was up she was about to ask something but Kikyo decided to speak.
“As a matter of fact Kagome I am looking for change and you should be too for Rin at least”
“I-I hey where's my very fun, care about nothing and no-one sister”
“Maybe it's time for us to grow up Kagome, maybe this is our second chance” she said completely ignoring her last comment.
“Ok I'm suppose to be the one saying this stuff not you what the hell is going on Kikyo”
Kikyo finally smiled a real smile for the first time and said.
“Well maybe I'm just starting to grow up”
_________________
The walk to the main International Agencies office of Japan was a bit harsh but somehow they managed to make it with the two agents in front of them.
“Ok ladies if you will have a seat and Hojo will be with you in a moment, he had to find some of his fellow colleagues for your orientation”
Both of the girls nodded a little more than nervous for the up coming meeting especially if there were going to be other people there. Kikyo sighed though when she told Kagome the good news she expected her not ask any questions but being Kagome a curious woman she had to ask about everything. So to prevent herself from strangling her I decided to just tell her the most important pieces of information excluding the fact that she was Hojo's sister also. Kagome didn't need to know all of that, Kikyo always felt that Kagome was the most fragile out of all of their family her breakdown over Sesshoumaru confirmed it.
It also didn't help that Hiten and Manten were looking for the attention and set them up. The job was suppose to be simple go to their usual man Johnny drop off the checks that were counterfeited and leave with crisp new real checks. But that time someone tipped them off Johnny was already arrested, so they ran back to their haven only to have it be bugged. Three days after that they were caught with lines of cop cars waiting for them. The cops roughly held both sisters down on the ground. It was then Hojo came and saved them saying that he was Japan and they would be treated with some sort of respect.
“And now he needs to use us again” she mumbled.
“You say something Kikyo?”
“No sis I'm just fine”
Both girls heard a noise and then the young secretary called them over.
“Mr. Suki will see you now ladies” with some pride they both walked in the office just to see Kagome's ex, and her ex along with Ayumi and the other guy who had a hand in their capture Naraku now she knew he was dubbed the `devil' she smiled.
“Hello gentlemen, how's life been we wouldn't know since Kikyo said pointing to Kagome who stood next to her, we've been in a cramped up correctional facility for three and a half years, maybe you can help us” her sarcastic words got growls from all of the men in the room Ayumi just watch with wide eyes.
“Um hello she asked you boys a question, or maybe we need a female influence Ayumi how were things since we've been in jail?” Kagome said smartly.
“Ah…ok I guess yeah everything been well so far its good to have you here girls are you going to be on our team” she said slightly smiling.
“Yes they will be on our team Ayumi, and to answer you last question ladies things have changed greatly since your time in jail they have actually gotten worse” Hojo said.
“For once I'll have to back Hojo up on this one never in my life have I seen so many cover-ups and money given away for two men. But that's were you ladies come in at huh, the thunder brothers screw you over too didn't they” Naraku said with a smirk when he saw their faces.
“Our lives are our business…but they did screw us over and most of our time in prison has been to get the back at them” Kagome said frowning.
“And this is your chance right here and now ladies, to take back what is yours by trying out as an International Agent”
“Ok but what's in it for us the silver haired bastards over their hate both of us” Kagome said pointing at Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru.
“Damn right Kagome I hate both of you Inuyasha well he can speak for himself” Sesshoumaru said.
“Ok stop before both of you say or do something you'll regret” he saw them both stop and then continued.
“Now ladies I should go over why you are here, and why I've work so hard to get you out of jail when I tried so hard to keep you there. As you may know Hiten and Manten are doing all of the things you two use to do but now it's even on a higher scale like murdering innocence people, and using their homes on the docks for illegal business. What's worse is the fact that none of us can catch them be---
“Because they have other people working for them everywhere they go” Kikyo said.
“And it pissed you off that you can't catch them because of the networks they have” Kagome finished.
“Stop interrupting me please he wait for a moment and when they didn't say anything else he continued, now since you both guessed some of the information now listen to the rest of it. They have made both of you look like innocent school girls without a care in the world, neither of you have killed for no reason and when we would try and catch you it was never for selling illegal drugs. And neither of you needed to have people paid off to keep you out of prison.
But you do know how to trace counterfeit checks, hacking into computers, and solving a case faster than any person here. I need you ladies to help me right now a person can only figure out the crime if they have a criminal background that is similar”
“So you just got us out of a twenty-five year sentence to use us Agent?” she questioned when he finished.
“Not to use you per say but to ask you both to help, the choice is yours right now either you can walk out of that door now or stay and finally get that second chance” Naraku interrupted.
Kagome was about to leave when Kikyo pushed her back to her original spot on the wall in the office and began to speak “Hojo what do you want us to do and when do we start” she said pleased for once.
“Tomorrow Kikyo right now I want you to enjoy the rest of your day, but first you need to know what your job description is going to be in the office and off of the office grounds”
“Ok…I'm not following you” said Kagome
“It's simple really in the office you will act as secretaries of Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru because somehow they got a big `promotion' to be supervisors Naraku watch the both men mumble something incoherent, but in all actually they will be figuring out their assignment as you will be figuring out yours”
“And that is…what, and also what is Ayumi going to doing”
“Sesshoumaru and I will be secretly figuring out who is working with Hiten and Manten within our own International Agency” Inuyasha said frowning he didn't want to do this but he had no choice it was either this or get demoted to a secretary because of the poker incident in Florida.
And I'll be helping Naraku with some the cases involving the thunder brothers.
“So ladies go to the hotel I had provided for---
“No Rin needs to see her mother at least she found out about you getting released from Souta who information came from Inuyasha, she's been crying all morning before I dropped her off at the prep school”
“Ok but what about Kikyo I will not leave here without my sister”
“Well she'll only be ten minutes away because she will be staying with me he turned to Kikyo and continued, I don't want her to be in a hotel”
“Very well we expect you to be here tomorrow 8 am sharp ladies” Hojo saw them smirk and he was at least happy for that. Maybe just maybe this won't be so bad after all because the girls hadn't runaway like he expected well his sister didn't Kagome though was another story.
This game just may play out the way he wanted it to after all…

Manten rolled off of Christine the French woman who `saw' them kill the three men who were in the way. He was pleased that he came up with that plan it kept him happy.
“Monsieur is that all you wanted from me” she asked softly and started to get up from the bed.
“Yes it is sweetheart and thank you for helping us cover the bases” he said. Usually he was with Yura was here with him doing this while helping the Agency but he was still in France so he really didn't care.
He would have to tell his brother what a great job he was doing right now. But what Manten didn't expect was the simple fact that his worse enemies were out of jail. He just kept playing with the woman in his arms. He was happy that he and his brothers were the ones on top, and no-one could stop them. They owned almost everything and everyone in the world. But it's so secretive that the media and their sources don't know about there ownership.
Ah yes the Game was still going on for Manten.

Location Japan
Kagome rushed out of the house early this morning and dressed in a jogging outfit. She was on a mission to do what she wanted to do again, no strings attached. The main problem for her was the fact that she was being told what to do, she hated it.
So she did the logical thing pack the remaining pieces of clothes and walked out of the quiet house. She took her keys and ran to one of the cars parked in the garage.
She left without a trace and decided have her wigs and make-up ready.
And just as she was about to walk to get on the plane she heard that one voice that could always stop her from making a mistake Sesshoumaru's.
“So Kagome where are you going this time?”
Finally I'm finished I really hoped you like it. I tried to fill in as much as I could think about and even included Manten in this chapter. And what Hojo and Kikyo are related? And wait Sesshoumaru was a well known assassin, huh it makes you wonder how the hell could he be so contradictory towards the situation. And how do Hojo and Kikyo feel about their mother in a coma by Sesshoumaru. You'll find out more about it in the up coming chapters
