InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Property of an Angel ❯ Busted ( Chapter 12 )

Enjoy!
I do not own Inuyasha.
I do own The Solstice Rose because I made them up.
Last time:
'You and Kagome deserve so much better than this'
This time:
Kiyomi stirred and opened her eyes leisurely to see a full moon through the sliding glass window.
'I'mstill in the hotel' she reminded herself.
She sat up slowly and looked around. Bankotsu had his head lying on the spot next to her, but he was sitting in a chair. She smiled and entangled her fingers in his hair.
'It's such a shame that my heart has rejected you too Bankotsu'
He stirred and opened his eyes causing her to pull her hand back.
"Yomi," he asked groggily and stretched, "how long have you been up."
"About thirty seconds," she laughed.
He sat on the bed a few inches away from the foot of the bed, slid her on his lap so that she was straddling him, and cupped her face.
"Are you ok?" he asked worriedly.
She nodded and looked into his hypnotic blue eyes. He pulled her closer.
"Kiyomi"
He pushed them both down on the bed and looked at her with love-filled eyes.
"From now on Kiyomi, even if you marry someone else or if you fall in love with someone else, until I die or find another, I put myself in the running for your lover," he whispered determinedly.
He pressed his lips against hers in a gentle and passionate kiss. Her eyes widened and then softened as comfort overwhelmed her. Bankotsu was so strong yet so gentle. His touch could comfort anyone no matter what. He pulled away and trailed soft kisses down her neck and back up to her ear.
"I want you to remember that night Kiyomi," he whispered.
He traced his tongue along the inside of her ear causing her to shiver.
She sighed, "Bankotsu, I don't think I can ever like you that way. I'm sorry."
She knew he was hurt but she couldn't just use him for comfort. He chuckled softly.
"You won't know unless you try," he replied.
He moved back down and started to suck on the base of her neck.
She laughed softly, "You've always been the persistent one, haven't you?"
She felt him grin against her neck, "Persistence leads to victory. That's my motto."
"So you're not going to give up until I fall in love?" she asked mockingly.
"Mmmhmm," he mumbled.
Her expression became somber, "Why do want to suffer like that?"
He looked up from the eggplant colored mark on her neck and stared at her questioningly.
"You're saying all these things like you already know what's going to happen! But if I do find someone I love and want to spend the rest of my life with, what are you going to do? It doesn't look like you can just move on. Are you gonna be depressed forever, are you gonna isolate yourself from everyone, or worse," she looked into his blue eyes with tears in her own, "are you going to try and hurt yourself?"
He just gazed at her intensely and silently as she went on.
"What's gonna happen huh? Answer me!" she sobbed.
He sat up and pulled her into his arms letting her cry into his bare chest.
"I just want everything to go back to normal! I want mom, dad, and grandfather to be alive! I want Souta to be with us again! I-I want everything back to the way it was before Masashi and Naraku came!"
He smiled sadly and held her tightly.
"I've been waiting for you to tear down that wall of yours. I was beginning to think you thought you couldn't open up to me anymore," he whispered.
She just continued to cry into his chest until they both fell asleep.
In the morning with Shippo and Kagome:
Kagome awoke slowly squinting as the sunlight shone brightly in her eyes. She shivered as a cold breeze from the open window brushed across her stomach. She looked down and saw that she was only in her bra and underwear. She sat up and looked around.
"My uniform"
"Is right here," Shippo sang holding her uniform in front of her, "I stripped you and Kiyomi because your uniforms were dirty and then I washed them!"
Kagome took her uniform, smirked, and muttered, "Pervert."
He laughed and tackled her to the bed.
"You know it!"
She giggled and tried to push him off her but to no avail.
"C'mon fatty, I need to get ready and you crushing me isn't helping!" she teased.
"Hey now little girl, don't go calling me fat. This is all muscle! Apologize prisoner!" he ordered playfully.
"As if!"
A mischievous grin appeared on his face, "Then you leave me no choice!"
He started tickling her. She giggled uncontrollably as he tickled her weak spots.
"C'mon say you're sorry!"
"N-N-Never!"
"Say it!"
"Alright, alright! I'm sorry!"
Shippo sat up and smiled in triumph.
"You may get dressed now."
She scoffed and kicked him off running to the bathroom. She laughed as he shouted for her to open the door.
"No thanks!"
"But I want to take a shower with my Kaggie!" he pouted.
She just rolled her eyes and stepped into the warm shower. She scrubbed herself thoroughly because of all the sweat from playing Shippo at DDR. She won of course but that doesn't mean it was easy! They had been dancing since they were little and they were awesome! Not to mention they could both sing. However, when Shippo left, Kagome hadn't sang or danced at all, she didn't see a reason to sing if Shippo wasn't there.
Kagome sighed in content and dried off. She put on her uniform, brushed her hair with Shippo's brush, and stepped out of the bathroom. She saw Shippo straightening up the room and smiled.
"Here, let me help," she offered.
She walked over to the bed and remade it. Then she started picking up the wrappers and cans they left on the floor the other night. She threw them in the trashcan and turned around to see Shippo gazing at her with a seductive and smug smirk on his face. He walked toward her, grabbed her red scarf, and pulled her close to him.
"What are you up to now?" she sighed.
He chuckled, "What would any normal guy be up to with a sexy girl in his room?"
She snorted and removed his hand from her scarf.
"Well I got to go to school."
She walked around looking for her bag and found it next to the bed. She bent over and picked up but dropped it in shock when she felt two arms wrap around her.
"It won't hurt if you're just a little late," he assured.
He pushed her on the bed and hopped on top of her.
"Shippo stop playing around! I have to go to school!" Kagome ordered.
Shippo leaned down toward her ear and breathed,
"I'm not playing this timeKagome."
She gasped at hearing him say her name for once and gasped even louder once he started kissing her neck.
"What's gotten into him? He's never gotten physical before!'
"Shippo get off!" she demanded.
"Yeah Shippo I know you love the girl but learn some self control," Bankotsu tsked.
Shippo looked up slightly and glared irately at Kiyomi and Bankotsu. He sighed and got off.
"I'll stopfor now," he muttered.
"Don't worry Shippo, we'll see you after school," Kiyomi assured.
"We won't be here after school," he muttered.
"I know Bankotsu told me you're going to perform at The Club (don't judge me teehee) and we'll get ready and meet you there ok?"
"Ok," he pouted.
"Alright Kagome, let's go," Kiyomi ushered.
Kagome nodded and walked out the door with Kiyomi behind her.
At school:
Kiyomi sorted through her locker looking for her math book and stuff, and it took a very unusual amount of time. She didn't know why but she was nervous about seeing Hitoshi again. She blushed and brought a hand to her lips.
"Hey Kagome, Kiyomi!" Sango shouted running up to them with Miroku, Inuyasha, and Hitoshi in tow.
"Hey Sango!" Kagome replied shutting her locker and noticed the disgusted look on Inuyasha's face.
"What's wrong?" she asked.
"You smell like that fox!" he gagged.
She rolled her eyes, "Yeah we spent the night with Bankotsu and Shippo."
This caught Hitoshi's attention.
"Oh yeah, and what did you do?" Miroku asked with a lecherous glint in his eyes.
"Well I played DDR with Shippo, and won, while Kiyomiwhat did you do Yomi?"
Kiyomi shut her locker door and turned toward them.
"We just talked about stuff," she stated simply.
Hitoshi's eyes looked her over in inspection and caught an almost completely covered hickey at the base of her neck. He snorted and looked away which was not unnoticed by Kiyomi.
"Something wrong?" she asked calmly and casually.
"Nothing just thinking of the nice "chat" you and your dear "brother" had," he retorted coolly.
"What's that suppose to mean?" she asked her voice sounding irate.
"Oh nothing, just thought your talk was just a little too physical," he replied raising his voice.
She glared and then smirked suddenly getting a great idea on how to piss him off.
"And so what if it was a little physical? Or, better yet, what if it was completely physical?" she retorted.
His eyes widened and flashed red for a quick moment.
"Then I'd recommend you'd see the counselor about committing incest by fooling around with your so called brother," he growled slightly.
Ok, now she was pissed off.
"And how do you know I was fooling around with my brother? How do you know I wasn't with some guy from the club? How do you know if I'm not just some prostitute or whore off the street," she walked up to him and looked him straight in the eyes, "don't go around assuming shit like you know me!"
She walked away not caring about the glares being drilled into her back by Hitoshi.
"You know Hitoshi," Kagome spoke, "you really need to be careful about what you say around Kiyomi, she's more sensitive than she looks and we're going through a lot. I can't tell you what we're going through exactly but just be careful what you say because, for her, words run deeper than any wound."
He just glared out the window and, after a while, went to math class.
At Lunch:
They all sat at their usual table talking about random things, except Kiyomi and Hitoshi. Kiyomi picked at her untouched ramen, while Hitoshi just looked out the window.
"I'm sorry Kagome but you really need to go to the Girls' locker room and take a shower, you smell like that fox!" Inuyasha half teased.
"You know he said the same thing about you," she laughed.
"Well he's on crack because I use Old Spice and I smells good!" he announced.
"You know I'm sure you'd both get along better if you got to know each other," she mused.
"No."
"Yeah! How about you guys come to the club with us? We're meeting them after school there!" Kagome offered.
"Sure, that sounds fun!" Sango squealed.
"As long as Lady Sango is going," Miroku sang.
"Then I guess I'm going," Inuyasha muttered.
"Ok Hitoshi how about-."
"Whatever it is, I'm pretty sure I have no choice in the matter so yes," he responded cutting Kagome off.
"Well, um, ok" she mumbled.
Suddenly, Kiyomi sniffed and her ears perked up. She looked around with fear evident in her eyes and grabbed Kagome's arm to run, but it was too late. There standing in the doorway of the cafeteria was Naraku and Masashi. They both had irritated looks on their faces but walked calmly and coolly over to the table. By then Kiyomi had already sat down and was looking down in her lap. Girls whispered and giggled about the two men and were staring at them with lustful eyes.
"Thank goodness you're safe," Naraku breathed; they were really good actors.
"We were so worried when you didn't come home," Masashi whispered sadly as if he was trying to hold back his tears.
Kiyomi turned her head away, while Kagome just glared at the two.
"Well you can see we're fine. Now go," Kagome hissed.
Naraku quirked an eyebrow at her attitude until finally noticing there were other people at the table. His gaze became sharp and cold.
"Kagome, who are these people?" Naraku asked through slightly gritted teeth.
"They're classmates of ours, just classmates," she assured trying to make sure her voice didn't crack; she was scared.
He gazed at her intensely making sure she knew how much trouble she was in.
"They better be."
"And what if we're not just classmates? What if we're friends?" Inuyasha asked mockingly.
Naraku sneered and clenched his fists trying to hold himself back. Inuyasha rolled his eyes and scooted close to Kagome. Naraku looked at Masashi, smirked, and turned toward everyone in the cafeteria.
"Ladies," he started in a smooth voice, "how about you all go freshen up? My friend and I here would like to get to know you all better."
Every female in there immediately rushed to the locker room. Masashi turned toward the guys.
"And I happened to see the security guard in the surveillance room sleeping, so how about you guys sneak in and see how the girls are doing?" Masashi suggested nonchalantly.
They were out in five seconds flat. Masashi's expression then became cold and he turned sharply towards Kiyomi with a piercing gaze.
"Kiyomi look at me," he ordered.
She immediately obeyed noticing a light bruise on his cheek, and wished she hadn't once she saw that he had spotted her hickey. A shock, like the kind you get from a plastic slide, tinged her skin making her gasp and grab her choker.
"Where were you last night?" he asked roughly.
Tears were welling in her eyes; she was so scared. She whimpered as a stronger shock spread through her body.
"I'm going to ask you again. Where. Were. You. Last. Night?" he asked firmly.
"I-I was with Bankotsu," she whispered in a tiny voice.
Kagome growled quietly as she actually saw a little shock of electricity tinged her skin.
"That man is back?" he hissed.
She nodded hesitantly. He put a hand on her shoulder gripping it firmly and bent down toward her ear,
"And what did you do?" he asked menacingly.
"Masashi leave her alone! They just talked!" Kagome shouted shooting up from her seat.
"No one was talking to you! Sit down!" Naraku ordered.
Kagome glared at him challengingly.
"Kagome, please, sit down," Kiyomi pleaded shakily.
Masashi smirked and moved down to her neck inhaling deeply.
"You're afraid of me," he laughed softly.
He trailed his tongue in circles around a spot her neck until something unexpected happened. Hitoshi grabbed the hand that was on her shoulder and clenched it tightly.
"Don't. Touch. Her!" he hissed.
"I am her legal guardian I can do what I want with her!" Masashi snapped.
"Except sexual and physical abuse!"
He laughed, "She comes to me willingly!"
Hitoshi glanced at Kiyomi in shock making her turn her head away. Then, Masashi brought his knee into Hitoshi's stomach causing him to double over and fall to the floor in pain. Masashi smirked and pinned him to the ground.
"You're a pretty one aren't you? I know people who'll pay good money for you," he leaned down and trailed his tongue from the base of his neck to the inside of his ear, "but maybe I should have a little test drive first."
Hitoshi snarled, wrenched his hand from his grasp, punched him in the jaw, and kicked him off.
"Sick bastard!" he growled kneeing him in the face.
He raised his fist but stopped dead once he heard Kiyomi scream in pain. He snapped his head in her direction and saw huge bolts of electricity engulfing her body. Her hair flew around her and the area around her was glowing white.
"NO! PLEASE, STOP, SHE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING," Kagome sobbed running to Kiyomi only to be grabbed by Naraku, "STOP PLEASE YOU'RE HURTING HER!"
"Did you know that only takes fifty amps to kill a human? I wonder how much a half demon can take?" he asked grinning evilly.
Kiyomi screamed louder and fell to the floor while grabbing her collar. Masashi smirked, stood up, brushed off, and left. Naraku whispered in Kagome's ear,
"Freshen up when you get home; I want to have fun for a very long time."
She shivered and hugged herself as he walked out the door. She looked back to Kiyomi, who was in more pain than before, and noticed her uniform was starting to burn. Not like fire just being torn.
"What are you doing?" Kagome asked Hitoshi as he took of the shirt of his uniform.
"I can take it better than her, if she takes it alone she'll die," he answered.
He then wrapped his arms around her hissed in pain as the electricity surged through him. Sango and Miroku just watched in shock; they were confused and worried about Kagome and Kiyomi.
"I'm calling the police," Sango announced pulling out her phone.
"Don't waste your time we've done it a million times it doesn't work," Kagome muttered.
"Well we have to do something!"
Hitoshi groaned in pain and held Kiyomi even tighter.
'Who were those guys? Why is Kiyomi so afraid of them? She's not afraid of anyone! Maybe she and Kagome should stay at our house ., it's better than thinking there with those guys or Bankotsu and Shippo'
He snapped out of his thoughts when his body relaxed as the electricity left him. He looked down at Kiyomi and was shocked by her expression; she looked so weak anddefeated. He pressed her spastic body against his chest and nuzzled her head with his nose.
"You should have told me," he whispered.
Tears welled her eyes threatening to fall, but she bit her lip to hold them back drawing blood in the process. She couldn't hold it any longer; she exploded. Violent sobs racked her body as she hid her face in his chest. Kagome watched in shock, had Masashibroken her? She felt Inuyasha pull her against his chest and turn her head away.
"You don't have to watch," he spoke softly and comfortingly.
She accepted his embrace because it was most likely the last she'd ever get. She knew that Naraku was furious no matter how well he had managed to cover it up. She was probably going to die when she got home. She already knew his style; merciless.
Kiyomi eventually calmed down but her body did not stop its continuous spasms. That was the worse shock he had ever given her. She looked up at Hitoshi who was still holding her tightly. He really did care, but she couldn't get any closer to him. She pushed herself off him and leaned on a table for support. She waited for her body to stop shaking until she stood up straight and walked towards the door.
"Where are you going?" Miroku asked.
She stopped and without looking back answered, "I can't go to the club looking like this, now can I?
They all gaped at her surprised she even felt like talking to anyone. Kagome then wriggled out of Inuyasha's grasp and followed her.
She then turned back and smiled, "Don't forget to meet us at The Club!"
