Downtown Los Angeles….
Money. That simple word will catch the ear of most who hear it. Inu-Yasha had seen
many a man fall into tight matters caused by money's alluring call. Inu-Yasha smirked
to himself arrogantly. Money was the very least of Inu-Yasha's concerns, his father made sure that he and his half sibling would never have to worry about financial problems. What did concern him was the fact that his bastard of a half-brother called him to discuss something 'important'. It was just like Sesshomaru to pick La Casa De Las Estrellas, the trendiest and most celebrity studded restaurant in L.A. ' Hmp, the asshole probably wants some good publicity by being seen eating with me, ' Inu-Yasha pondered while eyeing the mass of press people and reporters outside the restaurant. Even though it would delight Inu-Yasha to no ends if that was true, his common sense told him that Sesshomaru was to dignified to sink that low in means of self-gratification.
Inu-Yasha Himoko needed no publicity as it was. He was one the hottest bachelor's in L.A., and was a very well dignified business man. It also helped that he was drop dead gorgeous, with shimmery silver hair that cascaded down to the middle of his back. With his boyish smile, deadly fangs, and golden eyes, he definitely had the ladies at is heels. Being worth millions didn't hurt either… but, that seemed like the only thing people were after. ' Keh, I wonder if people only put up with me because of my status. I wouldn't doubt it. ' Inu-Yasha thought with a pang of sadness. As sappy as it sounded, he actually believed that he wanted to love someone, and vice versa. A bittersweet smile came to his face as he thought of the only one who had unconditionally loved him… ' Mother, I've missed you so much.. ' Inu-Yasha thought. With a shake of his head, he cleared his thoughts and made his way to the restaurant.
As soon as he pulled up to the entrance, dozens of reporters started shouting, and fans began screaming.
" Inu-Yasha, Inu-Yasha!! I'm pregnant with your unborn child ! " a rather loony looking teenager screamed.
Inu-Yasha laughed and shook his head. He'd never get used to having ' fans ' nor would he get used to the fact that people made saps of themselves just because he had status.
Smoothing his outfit, he entered the entrance to the restaurant and waved one last time to the reporters and the camera flashes. ' Gotta please the public ' Inu-Yasha thought with a grin.
He caught eyes with many up and coming stars and starlettes, and caught many a few checking him out.. even some of the males. With a shudder, he made his way to the hostess in the lobby. She was a bit stubby, with mousy brown hair, and eyebrows that looked like they hadn't been attended to in a couple of years. ' Hmm, I'll give her a break ' Inu-Yasha thought. He inwardly gave himself a pat on the back for being so generous to a girl who was most likely going to end up with a husband named Billy Bob.
" Hello, " Inu-Yasha started smoothly, " I'm Inu-Yasha Himoko, and I have reservations with Sesshomaru Lansei. " Inu-Yasha added to the effect by giving her a toothy grin, while his sharp canines gleamed in the light. He could hear the hostess's heartbeat quicken. ' Ha, sometimes I think this is WAY to easy '
" Y-ye-yes, Mr. Himoko, right this way. " The jittery hostess said, stuttering.
" Thank you. " Inu-Yasha replied. The hostess proceeded to lead him to his table. On the way there, his eyes met with a rather attractive red head on the way there, and he gave her a slight nod. ' Hmm, opportunity would normally strike, but I think I'll keep my mind clear for the moment, ' Inu-Yasha thought to himself. Besides, he found himself more attracted to dark haired girls anyways.
" Here's your table Mr. Himoko. I'm sure that Mr. Lansei will join you shortly. " The hostess said hurriedly, most likely trying to get away as quickly as possible to avoid seeming like a fool again.
Inu-Yasha gave her a nod and settled himself down in his seat. ' Now, back to business. Why would Sesshomaru want to discuss business in a restaurant? That asshole wants something… I can sense it. ' Inu-Yasha thought with a sneer, temporarily distorting his normally dashing looks.
' I could be doing much more constructive things with my time, like taking up Hugh Hefner's invitation to the Playboy mansion,' Inu-Yasha thought with a wistful smile coming into play across his face.
With a chuckle, he dismissed that thought. He did love beautiful women, but once you got passed the make-up, the hair, and the high-giggling noises that they always made, there was nothing more to them but emptiness.
All of a sudden, his thoughts went out to his mother, who had died when he was 8. His mother was the only person who had ever genuinely loved him. Maybe his father did too, but he passed away before Inu-Yasha ever got to know him. So, it was just his mother and him. She taught him right and wrong, given him insight into his hanyou heritage, and most importantly, she had loved him more than life itself. She had made him feel good about himself whenever people would have choice words for his appearance. She had soothed him like no other could. Then, she had been gone just like that. Inu-Yasha remembered the night the car accident happened; it would be etched into his mind until the day he died. They were on their way back from a show at the local cinema, and it was really dim and foggy outside. His mother kept on muttering about how someone should put more lights out on the highway. All of a sudden, it felt like a giant started shaking their vehicle. He heard his mother's scream pierce the bleak night. That was all he remembered about the accident. When he woke up, he assumed he was at the hospital, and the nurse standing at his bedside told him that his mother was dead, and that he would be entrusted in the care of his half-brother, Sesshomaru. Everything was such a daze after that.
The clear of a throat snapped his train of thought. Inu-Yasha looked up into the cold, youkai eyes of his half-brother, Sesshomaru.
" You asshole! Couldn't you see I was thinking?!? " Inu-Yasha yelled heatedly at Sesshomaru.
" Hmm.. I don't think deciding which whore house you were going to after our meeting counts as thinking, " Sesshomaru stated with amusement in his eyes that didn't match the iciness of his voice, " unless your thinking with something below your waistline. "
" Shut your fucking mouth." Inu-Yasha threatened with a deadly glee in his eyes.
" Close your mouth Inu-Yasha; it doesn't do anything to help your already tainted looks. "
" Ugh, fuck you! "
" Inu-Yasha, that is absolutely disgusting. I knew you didn't have the best of luck with the ladies, but asking your brother to fulfill your sexual desires? That's absolutely grotesque. " Sesshomaru murmured, knowing he had the last word.
" Sit down you bastard and tell me what the hell you want with me before I fucking beat it out of you! " Inu-Yasha yelled, his aura flaring up with negativity.
Without saying another word, Sesshomaru sat down and locked eyes with Inu-Yasha.
" Listen to me Inu-Yasha. I need a favor from you. " Sesshomaru said coolly, his eyes never leaving Inu-Yasha's.
" Ha, you really think I'm going to do something for your sorry ass? " Inu-Yasha chuckled. Clearly he must be in an alternate universe. His brother would NEVER ask him for a favor.
" I'm proposing an offer. I have some special business to attend to in L.A., and I have a merger going on in Tokyo. Since you do have high authority in father's business, I would like you to go, " Sesshomaru started off unsurely, " and fill in for myself. Normally, I wouldn't trust anyone with something as important as this, but you have been doing remarkably good for a hanyou."
" Next time you decide to visit Hades, why won't you do us all a favor in staying? " Inu-Yasha said with a slight edge in his voice. " Well, who the hell are we merging with anyways? "
" Higurashi United Corp. "
Inu-Yasha nearly fell back in his chair.
" Wait a sec! THE Higurashi United Corp?!? "
" Dumbass, didn't Higurashi United Corp just come out of my mouth? " Sesshomaru said with a dash of sarcasm in his deep voice.
Inu-Yasha decided to dismiss the put down. What was really important right now was the fact that his family's company , Tetsuia Inc. , was merging with the largest company known to man in Tokyo? This could mean very big opportunities for his families company. Tokyo was Inu-Yasha's birthplace, but he had never spent very much time there.
Snapping him out of his thoughts, Sesshomaru cleared his throat loudly.
" The Higurashi family is a very well known and respected family in Tokyo. This merger will benefit both of our parties greatly." With that, Sesshomaru reached into his Gucci briefcase and pulled out a folder. " Here, this is all the information you'll need, plane tickets, and some background information about the family and the company. You'll be taking residence in their country estate, by the way. Don't screw this up Inu-Yasha, or I'll make sure your done once and for all. " Sesshomaru stated icily. He threw a $100 bill down, grabbed his belongings, and stood up to leave. " Oh, and I forgot to mention this Inu-Yasha, " Sesshomaru started off, " stay away from Kagome Higurashi. She's out of your league. " He promptly turned on his heel and strolled away, leaving Inu-Yasha in a daze.
" What the fuck?!? "
