“Well, she said she should be here any second. I'm sure Sesshomarou and her will get along great” Kagome said.

 

I cocked an eyebrow waiting for an explanation, even if none were needed. Ever since my divorce those idiots have tried to pair me with several different women. As if I would be interested!

 

I quickly reconsidered when I heard a familiar feminine voice. It may have been years but I would never forget this voice.

 

“Kagome, Sango. I'm sorry I'm late guys!”

 

My heartbeat increased, and for once I experienced fear. Was it her? Was it really her? I could not believe it, but I had to be sure. I turned around and could not believe my eyes:

 

Kagura?!

 

Her long black hair was held in a tight bun, she had grown a few inches, or maybe it was just the heeled shoes. Her lips were a vibrant red just like her eyes. Those beautiful red orbs that captured my intention the second I saw her. Yes, this was indeed MY Kagura.

 

“Sess…Sesshomarou” she stuttered. Her crimson eyes were opened widely, I could not blame her I myself was shocked to see her.

 

“Oh great, Kagura, you know Sesshomarou?” Kagome asked, if only she knew to which extent we knew each other…

 

“I…we…I have to go!” Kagura said before turning around and running away as if the devil itself was after her.

 

Everyone was stunned, even I was. But it took me just a few seconds to grab my jacket and run after her. I could hear the gasps of my brother's friends behind me, as I left without a word.

 

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000

 

“Kagura wait!” I screamed after all. I don't know why but I needed to see her, talk to her, maybe even hold her.

 

But of course she neither stopped nor listened. I saw that she was running towards what I presumed to be her car. I had to hurry if I wanted to be able to get to her.

 

“Wind witch stop running at once!” I screamed at her back. She must have been surprised to hear me raise my voice, because she stopped. But as I almost reached her she managed to take out her keys, or maybe she had them in her hand all along.

 

Kagura opened her car door and stepped inside. I reached her before she started the car but of course she had locked the door. In a gesture so unlike anything I would usually do, I loudly knocked on her window to get her attention but stopped when I noticed she was crying.

 

I stepped away from the car and let her drive away. This time I let her go, but it did not mean I had let her go forever. No, now that I saw her I knew what had been missing in my life for the past eight years: Kagura.

 

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000

 

Despite the fact that Inuyasha has been with Kagome for at least four years, it had never even crossed my mind to ask where she worked or what she did. But now, it appeared I would have to go to her workplace if I wanted to see Kagura again.

 

I entered the restaurant and made my way to our table, Of course I was not surprised that this band of idiots was gawking at me as if I had grown a third eye. I could tell by the surprise in the girls' eyes that Inuyasha told them about my past with Kagura.

 

Or at least what he thought he knew about it. I sat down pretending not to see their questioning glares. I took the almost full glass of whisky I had abandoned on the table and drained it in one gulp.

 

I raised my hand and ordered another glass, I knew I was going to need one if I had so suffer through their questions. I did not plan to really answer their questions, but I figured that it would be a nice way to gather information on MY wind witch.

 

Since they were trying to set me up with Kagura in the first place, I could already infer that she had to be single. This realization almost made me smile. Along with the fact that maybe I should give these morons more credit, if they picked her for me, it could be that they knew me better than I thought…

 

“Hum, Sesshomarou that was Kagura Kaze. You're ex girlfriend, right?” It appeared that Inuyasha was either the one with the most courage, the less respect or the less patience. These would be the only reasons why he would be the first one to question me. Or maybe he figured that being my half brother entitled him to be able to question me.

 

I waited until the waiter brought me my glass, before I answered “Yes it was”.

 

I could tell by their gleaming eyes that they all wanted to ask me more, but were not fool enough to open their mouth.

 

“So what did she say? Did you talk to her?” he asked me once more. I could tell that his precious Kagome was the one who pressed him to ask these questions. And by the way his hanyou dog ear was twitching, I could also tell that he did not like it one bit.

 

“Why are you questioning this Sesshomarou? What happened between her and me is none of your concern” I said on a final tone taking a nice gulp of my glass.

 

“Okay, but it is of my concern! I was the one who brought Kagura here. I don't want her to decapitate me with a wind blade when I get to the office on Monday!” Kagome hissed on a tone I never heard her use before.

 

So it appears my Kagura still had her irresistible yet horrible temper.

 

“And where would that be?” I asked her peering straight into her eyes.

 

“I won't fall into your trap, Sesshomarou. I am not going to reveal any information to you.” My brother's wench dared spit at me. She may be a miko, but she should know not to get on my nerves, I could sever her little neck before she would have time to try to purify me.

 

Inuyasha, who early on in his life learned that it would be in his benefit to learn how to appraise my moods, especially if he wanted to stay alive, saw that I was rather irritated and decided to get his lover to back off.

 

“Let it go Kagome, it's none of our business. Besides do you really think this cold bastard would say anything to us…”.I really was in no mood to fight with the whelp, so I simply sent him a death glare.

 

“Come on, why don't we all just relax? After all we are here to celebrate Sesshomarou's twenty-fifth birthday”. Miroku said.

 

“The pervert is right. Kagura is a big girl, don't worry about her. Let's just have fun” Sango said.

 

I almost rolled my eyes at them. At this point I just wanted to go through dinner, cut my cake and receive my presents as fast as possible. After all, why waste my time, it appeared I would not be getting any information from the girls.

 

Besides I had a wind witch to catch…

 

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000

 

“Yes… Kagura Kaze….She is twenty four years old…. No! Not CAZE… K-A-Z-E” I screamed in the phone. But realizing, the old hag on the other end of the line would not be able to help me I hung up.

 

I was really getting angry. I had spent the entire morning trying to find Kagura's address. I looked in phone books after phone books and I just hung up on the incompetent information service. Despite my best efforts, I still did not find anything. This was getting infuriating. Where could Kagura be? If she lived in the city there had to be a proof somewhere!

 

I sat down on the couch and started to massage my temples, I could already feel a massive headache coming. I had no idea she lived in this city, I wondered when she moved from our hometown of Sengoku. To think that all this time we were so close to each other, we could have met in a store or in one of the busy streets of Shikon city.

 

Shikon city, I always hated this over crowded city. Ever since I moved out there two days after I turned seventeen, if it weren't for my father… Ridiculous! No need to dwell on the past.

 

I then heard a loud knock at my front door and knew it was Inuyasha, but I didn't know why he could possibly be here. I opened the door and let him in.

 

Inuyasha wasted no time as he said “You know it might not be any of your business, but I thought you'd like to know that Kagome works for a magazine called `Goshinboku'. Don't know why I'm telling you this, I just felt like it I guess. Anyway if Kagome asks you, I spent the afternoon playing video games with Miroku.”

 

Before I had time to register anything, my little brother was out the door, but of course not before uttering “don't screw it up. Bye bastard!”

 

A part of me wanted to follow him and beat him up for his lack of respect, but another part of me wanted to thank him. I simply decided to do none of these two and jumped on my computer to find the address of the offices of `Goshinbuku' magazine.

 

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000

 

I felt like some stalker, sitting at a terrace across from the doors of the magazine's offices for Kagura to come out. Such actions really are beneath me, but Kagura had left me no other choice.

 

And there she was coming out with Kagome and Sango. The three of them were smiling and laughing at something one of them must have said. I always loved Kagura's laughter, it was soft warm and I found it comforting. Right now she looked like my wind witch from all these years ago. Her appearance was slightly different, but her wicked smile, cherry red lips and shimmering red orbs were the same.

 

I stepped towards the three women and as expected they stopped dead in their tracks and all traces of laughter disappeared at once.

 

“Sesshomarou? What are you doing here?” Sango asked me. As if it was not obvious, but I stayed my tongue, I was busy studying the different emotions playing on Kagura's face.

 

“Did Inuyasha tell you about here? He is so dead!” Kagome said with burning eyes. A part of me felt bad for my brother, but just a tiny part. I was not to blame after all if he decided to take an aggressive wench. Beside it's not like he did not deserve it. Maybe I will send him a get well basket in his hospital room.

 

“Girls, it's okay. You know what, I'll see you guys tomorrow” Kagura said.

 

Kagome and Sango finally left but not without sending death glares at me, as if this could frighten ME!

 

I breathed deeply and finally started “Kagura…

 

 

 

To be continued…

 

 

A/N: And I'll stop here. I wonder how Kagura is going to react to Sesshomarou crashing into her life? Find out next time, in Just listen!
