Last time:

 

“So Kagome where are you going this time?”

 

_________________

 

His damn voice made her cringe but Kagome stood strong in her spot not really wanting to face him after getting caught.

 

“I don't know I was thinking about going back to America again or maybe France to see Hiten again I bet he'd love to see me” she fixed her wig making sure it was still on correctly Kagome heard him laugh and frowned.

 

“You can't do it can you, for once in your life you are scared that you might do a better job at something that is wholesome”

 

“If the job was so wholesome then Hojo wouldn't gone through the trouble getting us out of jail” she said sarcastically.

 

“That's not the point, at least not at the moment he sighed, what I mean to say is that you are scared of being good”

 

“Look I just don't want all of the rules and guidelines that come with being an agent, I liked what I was doing stealing for fun, fake identities, running from all of you it's the best thing I've ever done in my life”

 

“You're parents don't determine who you are Kagome he said suddenly, I should know I tried being like my mother once”

 

“And this is relevant to me because? Sesshoumaru you lost the chance to know me when you embarrassed me in front of all of your friends, so don't try to presume to know anything about me or my parents”

 

“I know what he did to both of you Kagome, it's the one reason why I took Souta in, the one reason why Rin doesn't know much about him”

 

“And what you deserve a fucking medal for it, I could of helped Souta out by sending him to Vegeta or Bankotsu I just needed you to be there for Rin”

 

“You and Kikyo didn't deserve that” he kept saying.

 

“I don't deserve this lecture either, so I'm going to do what I originally planned on doing and that is leaving Japan” she said picking her bag up from that spot, she started to walk when he said something else.

 

“So what do I say to our daughter that you stayed up with yesterday?” he said growling at her. How can she be so insensitive to everyone around her it was mind boggling? What was it about her that made her sometimes not think of the things and people around her, somehow he didn't know.

 

“Tell her that her mother loves her but at the moment she can't face being bossed around by anyone especially the man she lost a while ago” she said if only he was facing her now he would see the tear falling down her face.

 

“So this is it for you huh, your not even going to try?”

 

“I'm only going to tell you this once Sesshoumaru, working for the International Agency or you is not something that I want to do. I'll never be that `do good' woman because it's not my life, Kikyo can grow up but I can't because I love the thrill of not getting caught”

 

“Ok if that's how you feel Kagome then by all means I'm not stopping you, in fact no one is stopping you anymore. Look around you sweetheart there is no agency team to figure out where you are in the world, or even who you are its just me Sesshoumaru Tashio.

 

You are yesterday's news Kagome, Hiten and Manten stole the spotlight from you, so it's up to you right now at this moment to chose what you really want out of life. Do you really want that second chance Kagome or will you go to prison again because if you go this time I can guarantee that Hojo will not bail you out because he will be fired from his position. So just for one second ask yourself if you can live with that” he finished serious about the future of his agent and the woman who still had that selfish streak.

 

Kagome stayed silent for a long time with her bags in hand she started to move again walking to the plane doors for boarding. She tried to think of the job already in place for her and some part of her was scared but it was not because of being good or making a difference, she could careless about that but what if she completely messed up the project. She would be failing herself and her team.

 

“I'll even give you an extension Kagome on the house, don't come in at 8 am but at 10 am but no later” he kept shouting at her but she just kept walking. He sighed, for once he wanted Kagome to come back say that she was sorry and walk together back home.

 

`Yeah like that is going to happen I didn't even give her a chance after I found out who she was' Sesshoumaru did the only thing he could do at that point and that was go back home, rush through traffic, and start his work. And as she walked away he did too…

France Two Days Ago

 

“Kanna I still need results, I don't care how you did it the last time but make something happen” Manten said frustrated he needed a way to find Bulma Briefs another woman he profusely hated. When he heard that she was the one who figured out a way to get Kouga's stones from one of the dock sites. From what he heard she played as a mover as well as Vegeta and Bankotsu who place everything else in the ship from China to Japan. The rest of the men helping should have noticed I mean could you not notice blue hair and light blue eyes.

 

And now he would have to deal with the bullshit dealers in England and Italy claimed that they needed the stones or something else in its place. Months ago it was easy he and his brother had stolen over a half million dollars from an American bank while dealing with the black market and other illegal activities. At that point they had no trouble from anyone except Hojo.

 

The same man who was after the Shikon sisters when they were just stealing and impersonating people well Kagome was, Kikyo was a killer in times of need. But the thunder brothers as they were dubbed had gone deeper into the crimes they committed across the world, and they never got caught. Whenever they were caught and jailed it was only temporarily and then they sued the country or city still racking up more cash. After the countries could not touch them just about everyone gave up on them except Hojo, and now the family members of the Higurashi sisters.

 

`Vegeta didn't do anything else except when Hiten threatened his family he would have check some information out' He thought as he unconsciously rubbed his chin. He and Bankotsu both destroyed one of their main shipping areas when Hiten said his sharp words to him the bastards were much better with bombs than they were. They were so good that when the place blew up a huge P mark was left after the fire died down.

 

“I'm trying Manten but like I told you and you're brother I need more help and resources” she said in monotone voice.

 

“You have Kagura, Ginta, my girl Yura, Christine in France, Mai-Lee in China, and so on”

 

“But I need another agent that is close to the woman, like the Tashio Family” she said smirking into the phone.

 

“No deal Kanna, especially since the blue haired bitch and her husband got a hold of those stones that I happen to save your ass from when I dealt with Hiten” he frowned.

 

“Vegeta and Bankotsu only gained access to those stones because of her knowledge on the situation plus her friend and old group member from the wolf gang is Kouga. But very well then but if she successfully steals more of our shipments with out a trace then I'll call to tell you I told you so”

 

He growled unintentionally at the phone knowing that for one Kanna their go to girl, there right hand since the beginning of their espionages was correct.

 

“The problem with having a member of the Tashio family work for us is the fact that Sesshoumaru hates Hiten's guts”

 

“But Inuyasha doesn't hate either of you, and to be frank Sesshoumaru is keeping him on an allowance, the only money he can spend freely is from his job plus a couple hundred can get from the bank. Therefore he may not mind being on our team Manten”

 

Manten started to get what she was saying while he sat in his chair of his personal French study. But he still didn't trust this not Inuyasha but for the sake of sticking it to the `great hacking queen' Bulma he would do it.

 

`That bitch really reminded him of Kagome with her fucking tricks, and if he finally got a hold of her then he would kill her slowly' he thought with a frown

 

“Fine I'll allow you to extract Inuyasha from the international agency have Kagura or Yura help him out and see if he even wants to help us” he finished cutting the connection before she could say anything else to him. He rubbed his temples Manten had been doing that a lot lately with the `excellent' agent Hojo still trying to catch him, Vegeta, Bankotsu, and Bulma silently trying to make a comeback probably because of the Shikon sisters. Not to mention the fact that every other investor was breathing down there neck because of the missing shipment.

 

“Little brother we need to talk about two new people agent Hojo just got on his team” Hiten burst into his study literality pissed.

 

“Like he can stop us Hiten we have ruled this game even since we set Kikyo and Kagome up” he said although he still didn't remember even setting them up. But to be on the same level of his big brother he said that he help take those women out.

 

“Manten that's the problem look at the news now” he turned on the T.V. to see the man speaking in French a language he could do a better job in learning. But he did know the last words of the male reporter as well as the picture that was up.

 

“How the hell did they get out so early and what part of the international agent team are they working for…”

Japan Present Day Agent Conference Room

 

“What!!!” Hojo shouted so loud that the windows almost cracked.

 

“Hojo calm down I don't think my sister meant to leave she's probably just playing she'll be back right Sesshoumaru…Right” Kikyo said with some hope in her eyes but that was shattered with the look on his.

 

“I honestly don't know this time she claimed that she didn't want to do this” he said.

 

“So what did you say brother?” Inuyasha questioned.

 

“I need an aspirin quickly before I hyperventilate” Hojo said sitting down in his chair.

 

“Um dumb ass you need water” Naraku interrupted everyone else quietly laughed.

 

“She'll be back, Kagome doesn't seem like the type to just never come back” Ayumi said and everyone shot her a `then you don't know Kagome' look except Kikyo.

 

“I'm with her, Kagome will come back if I have to figure out a way to find her, beat her ass, and drag her back she'll be here” Kikyo said with a smirk.

 

“Ok then what can we do at the moment then” Hojo asked slightly pissed because Kagome was one of the best computer hackers in the world she was always compared to the great Capsule Corp business woman Bulma Briefs. And it also how the old wolf gang almost never got caught, through Kagome and Bulma who were friends. Then it just became the Shikon sisters with Hiten and Manten because Kouga and Bulma eventually quit along with another member but she was just a lookout girl. This of course is another thing Sesshoumaru didn't know about because assaisins and computer geeks never crossed paths much unless a government official wants them dead.

 

“Map coordinates of any local location is a good place to start” Ayumi said as she pulled out a huge map of the world and placed it on the round table.

 

“Tracing is the best way to find these guys, I need all of the checks they cashed presently and in the past then maybe we can catch them” Kagome said leaning against the door of the room, her blue eyes had a glitter of `yes I'm right' in them.

 

“You're late Kagome” Sesshoumaru said with a slight smile on his face.

 

“Yeah no thanks to you jackass she smirked at his new facial expression, anyway Inuyasha I need you to help me out or are you not game enough to play on my level computer kid” she said as she finally walked over to the square table and sat in her seat.

 

“Oh I'm game `first genius' where do we start oh great one” Inuyasha said sarcastically.

 

“Do you have all of their current checks if it's one thing I do know about them is that they don't like spending the money they already have. They use counterfeit bills instead, a trait that they learned from me” she said smirking at him he just shook his head.

 

“We've tried that all ready Kagome they are good it will be almost impossible catch them that way” Inuyasha said.

 

“Not if I'm here it won't be, I know what types counterfeit checks they have I can give you something”

 

“Very well I have some for you by tomorrow Kagome. I also want you to go out with Hiten that is going to be your first assignment” Hojo said interrupting the two computer geniuses and sliding in that last comment.

 

“What, um no” she said with a bit of malice in her voice she still hadn't gotten over what he did to her. She looked Hojo dead in the eyes and said.

 

“Kagome we need you to get some information on the brothers and since Hiten likes you…”

 

“You can get more information from him she sighed and rolled her eyes, fine I'll do it but I better be getting extra money for exploiting myself”

 

“I'll see what I can do and I thought you cared about Hiten” Hojo smirked at her.

 

“I do care about him but my thirst for revenge is greater” she said with a grin on her face.

 

“Moving on as we know the thunder brothers have people who work for them right?” Naraku said posing the question. He then saw Kagome looking at the phone and picked it up knowingly. He dialed one of Hiten's numbers and looked back at her smirking, how he knew about these numbers was a mystery.

 

“Yeah he has people all over the world and that's only because no one wants to touch them” Ayumi said softly

 

“No actually no one wants to deal with the lawsuits after they are released from jail” Kikyo said.

 

“Naraku have you gotten his hotel on the line yet” Kagome interrupted them

 

“He's at one of his main house here in Japan I believe and could you wait please, that would be great” he growled at her.

 

“It would be even better if I wasn't interrupted, but do you guys have an idea on what to do right” Hojo said sighing as he looked back at other fellow members they nodded there heads again.

 

“Yeah you need a backbone Hojo” Kikyo said shaking her head at him.

 

“So while we wait are Inuyasha and I suppose to assume supervisor positions and such” said Sesshoumaru

 

“Yes and I---

 

“Yes may I speak toSaitou, Hiten please” Kagome said in her softest voice literally shocking everyone in the room she just stuck her tongue out at all of them. Only moments later he came to the phone after she heard him ask who it was.

 

“Kagome is that you, I missed you a lot, and ifI were you I'd cut off that recorder”she heard him say.

 

“What recorder?” she said innocently.

 

“I don't know but I hear something like a clipping noise” he said.

 

“Oh…Ok well I don't hear anything, but I was wondering how have you been lately?” she said playing off the noise that was really buzzing between them.

 

“It depends on the day, but why did you really call me Kagome? I know who you work for I just don't know where or what department. Is it under Hojo the man who relentlessly went after you?”

 

“I'm just Inuyasha's secretary and nothing more, you can tell you girlfriend that also. And to answer your other question yes and no I work under Inuyasha who works with Hojo so…”

 

“So why don't I believe that statement? Why do I think you're playing another game Kagome? I warn you though that I not as weak as I use to be when we were a part of the Wolf gang… he trailed off with a looming threat.

 

“I'm aware of that I know what you've been doing since you set Kikyo and I up I want revenge but not before seeing you for the last time” she looked at everyone in the room trying to contain their anger at a now ruined project Kagome just smirked.

 

“So you aren't just a little secretary” he said growling into the phone.

 

“Yes I am a secretary but that doesn't mean that I'm trying to kill on the side. But that's not why I called Hiten I want to go out to dinner with you as human beings not as people trying to slit each other's throat” she said quickly covering her last statement up. She looked at her supervisors and they were smiling she smirked again knowing that she was good at what she did.

 

“You are asking me out to dinner? I don't know if I should be worried about that statement or pleased the past can have some mind blowing effects on you” he said while Kagome cursed mentally she needed him on her side completely.

 

“I'm serious Hiten we can play enemy the next day, I just want to see one of the people I care about” she said softly hoping that he believed her just like he always did. He trusted her when she said that there was no clipping noise when she knew that Naraku was still recording. She finally heard silence from him momentarily like her was thinking about it, weighing all of the pros, cons, and the consequences later.

 

“Very well Kagome, I'll humor you meet me next week at my home wear something delightful sweetheart” Kagome shivered in disgust at that name that was long ago forgotten. A name she hated ever since Hiten ran straight to Sesshoumaru about her secret life. Something she hated him more for, but right now she couldn't think of that the focus was catching him.

 

“Give me the directions later and I'll be ready Hiten goodbye” she hung up the phone quickly before he could say anything else while staring into space. She still held fast to the cradle just looking away, she was really going to see him again and although she looked tough she felt scared for some reason.

 

“Kagome you can release the handle now” Kikyo said softly snapping her sister out of her trance.

 

“Well Hojo the first part of this plan has been set now what else do you want me to do” she said now changing her demeanor.

 

“Be careful and next time wait for all of us to be on board before you call him. We are a team Kagome whether you want to accept that or not we all are in this together. And you should not be encouraging her” he said looking at Naraku, in return the man just shrugged his shoulders.

 

“Fine can we adjourn this meeting then boss” she said while rolling her eyes.

 

“Yes but Sesshoumaru and Kikyo I need to talk to both of you about another personal project I want done…” he trailed off looking at both agents' forlorn facial expressions and actually smiled for once. They were going to find the leaks that were ruining his case.

“Inuyasha if I could have a moment of your time” Yura said her black eyes smiling she saw him stop in his place but he didn't look back at her.

 

“About what Yura and make it fast I have to work on a project” out of all of the people Yura had always played hard to get and he didn't know why and after they slept together she was very pissed at him all the time. And now all of the sudden she wanted to talk, this was rich he decided to give her that moment of time.

 

“Oh Inuyasha it will be worth your wild…

The Northern Docks of Japan

 

Two weeks had passed them by before they decided to check out one of Hiten's warehouses on the northern docks of Japan. This place was the lead that Kagome has gotten from the earpiece placed into Hiten's belongings when they had dinner how she did it again they didn't know. They had two vans surround the area as Sesshoumaru and Kagome first got out of the car first with their gadgets and guns, then Kikyo, Inuyasha and Naraku followed. Hojo and Ayumi both held there position in each van working on the computers within. But they both called for backup if they needed it, if they learned nothing else from the thunder brothers

 

“Sesshoumaru just remember what I told you in the car, I still feel that way if that kiss means anything at all, I still care about you dearly” she said softly.

 

“We need to get inside and find out what we can Kagome lets not focus on anything else ok, besides I have a fiancé remember” he said frowning at her.

 

“You're right let's get back to work Sesshoumaru ok” she said sadly as she now dragged behind him. They walked into the warehouse building along with the other three agents. Usually they called for back up but this time they didn't for some reason.

 

The warehouse was clean but they still looked anyway at anything that could be laying out somewhere that they didn't know about. They started their search in separate areas, as her cell phone went off as she went into the area, she saw that it was Hiten and answered.

 

“Hello who is this?” she tried to play it off but she couldn't Hiten caught on to her.

 

“Kagome sweetheartI know you are with your team” he said growling over the phone.

 

“What team I'm in my office proofing Inuyasha's papers” she said.

 

“I can see you all of you in my camera sweetheart so stop lying to me”

 

“You're watching us, you asshole, I really have underestimated you haven't I?” Kagome said pissed she should have known that Hiten was trying to watch his back from everyone, thus the need to have cameras in a practically empty warehouse.

 

“There is nothing here is it?”

 

“Now, now Kagome I'm the one that is going to ask the questions?” he questioned.

 

“And if I don't answer?” she asked smartly.

 

“I'll kill you and your team where you standI have the bombsset up and everything”he said as hesat in his chair in his otherhome. Hiten was happy that he was able to set up the camera's in time for the bustand get his major merchandise for his investorsbut she didn't need to know that. He hated that his Kagome had betrayed him but it didn't matter because shewould get hers. He held the button that could kill the agents in his warehousein his hands just waiting.Technology was the best nowadays especially illegal items.

 

“Now sweetheart whoseteam are you really onor who are you really working for?” He asked

 

“Well obviously I'm a part of Hojo's team Hiten, I was asked to take you out in exchange for no jail time” she said softly.

 

“So this makes us enemies then Kagome?” he asked.

 

“Yes Hiten it does remember what I said on the phone to you that day and you asked about the games that I'm playing”

 

“Yes very vividly Kagome I rememberwhat I said to you”

 

“Good because this is who I am now Hiten, I am a player against you and Manten and I will bring you down at any cost” she said confidently.

 

“What will happen when youfinally catch us Kagome what will be next for you, will you keep trying to win Sesshoumaru's heart?” he said sarcastically.

 

“No I don't know what will happen after we catch you Hiten but I do know that when Hojo does bring you in I'll personally help him” she finished.

 

“Very well Kagome if this is how you want to play it, I wanted to ask you more questions but I think your team deserves to see the repercussions of my deadly gift, my game for all of you. You remember how thisworks rightKagome,you have 20 seconds to warn your nosy team and get out of the building because there is nothing to use there. Come to think about it this reminds me of old times just you and me before that Tashio bastard came into the picture” he smirked when she growled

 

“Now don't die on me Kagome I need to make you my wife…” he saidignoring herlast statementand thencutting the connection.

 

“Everyone get the fuck out of this building now or we will die” she yelled and everyone heeded her warnings they rushed to the door that they originally came in to find that it was locked. She didn't look back as she ran to the door until Inuyasha said something.

 

“Wait where the hell is my brother and why can't we get out of here?” he asked frowning. Kagome on the other hand was worried and ran back without being noticed to find him.

 

“Well village idiot, Hiten rigged the place which my lovely sister didn't catch on to it until now and I need a male to kick the door down”

 

“Kikyo how long do we have here?” Naraku asked

 

“ If I know the `thunder brothers' less than twelve seconds so both of you need to kick this door down now, and Kagome, Sesshoumaru?” Kikyo said now completely worried the guys finally burst down the door and dragged her with them.

 

“No you bastards they are still in there Kagome” she screamed loudly as Inuyasha ended up putting her on his shoulders, kicking and screaming to the vans.

 

“Foolish woman there is no time left we just have to hope that they both get out safely Kikyo” Naraku said and as he said this the bombs went off…

 

Like it, Hate it, tell me now I hope that I wasn't too wordy in this chapter if I was please tell me. I'm back and not as busy as I was before so the chapters should be out faster. The ending of this chapter was a little tough for me but I dealt with it at least I hope I did. And I'm in the midst of writing the next chapter so please be patient. Constructive Criticism is always welcome because I'm not really a writer and I do need a lot of help.
