"Yeah...now his son is going to be mad that I'm not going out with him, and he'll say something to other judges' bad stuff about me and it will be all over."
"So date him..."
"The thing is I already like someone."
"Oh? Who?"
"You can't say okay?"
"Alright."
"Well I like him because he's cute. Even when I first met him I thought he was cute. He treated me like me and not like I was mental. He believed I could be helped!"

"Well...it's...Miroku."
------------------------Chapter 7: The Process Of Capturing The Criminal: Part One--------------
“What,” Kagome nearly chocked on her saliva.
Sango blushed a bright red. “Well-”
“Mrs?” A voice called from the doors. Both Kagome and Sango looked to see an officer standing there. Sango leaned towards Kagome, “that's the person that told me that Meogua died…” Kagome nodded.
“Are you Sango Tatiana?” The police asked. She nodded. “Follow me; you're not off the hook.”
“S!” Sango swore. She looked to Kagome, “come with me,” she begged. Kagome nodded and they walked into the court house together. “So what's Meogua's son's name?” Kagome asked as they gradually made it down the hall to the last room. “I'm not sure,” Sango stated as they went into the court room.
“The honorable Judge Jaken,” the policeman said as the judge came in. Sango and Kagome stood.
“Who is your lawyer?” Jaken asked.
“Kagome Higurashi.”
“Let's get started then. We have a jury, jury meet Sango Tatiana. I'm sure you all know her. About four years ago she killed Yasuo, an innocent boy.”
“Innocent! HA!” A male voice came from the back by the doors. Sango slowly turned to see who it was.
“Naraku,” she growled in disgust. She was confused, “what's going on Kag-”
“QUIET in the courtroom!” Jaken yelled, hitting his gavel down three times. (A/N: the number of times is important, keep it in mind)
“Where's Abria?” Naraku asked, approaching the Plaintiff's side.
“I'm here,” the woman said, as she entered the courtroom. There was a man behind her with silver hair.
“And who is this?” Jaken asked, pointing to the man.
“My Lawyer Sesshomaru,” she said in a giddy.
“Oh no-I'm screwed!” Sango said, hitting her self on the forehead.
“Mrs. Tatiana! If you disrupt this courtroom one more time-” Jaken stated to yell angrily.
“Easy Jaken, don't strain yourself, I don't want you to hurt your back again.”
“Yes Naraku. Now let's get started. Naraku, you are up first.”
Naraku nodded and sat in the seat beside the judge. Sesshomaru approached. “Now tell us your story Naraku.”
“Well as you all know I am Abria's husband,” Sango shook her head but Naraku continued on, “I was sitting at the dining room table reading my newspaper as Yasuo came down. He was dressed and ready for school. I dismissed myself from the table to go upstairs so I could take a shower. When I came down I saw him laying on the floor bleeding. I called his name and walked over to him. He didn't answer me so I crouched down and touched his neck to get his pulse, and he was dead.”
Shesshomaru nodded and sat down. Kagome cleared her throat and walked towards the bench. “So you didn't actually see him die?”
“No I did not.”
“Then how do you know that Sango killed him?”
“Well I don't. The police came to the house after I phoned them.”
“And what did the police do at your house?”
“They searched it.”
“And what did they find?”
“A knife and blood.”
“And where are the police reports now?”
“We haven't found the police that searched it.”
“Why not?”
“They are all dead…”
“How do you know that?”
“Excuse me? How do I know what?”
“How do you know the police are dead?”
“Well they uh-we were looking for them for the evidence.”
“You can relax Narkau, you haven't taking the oath yet. Would you feel better if you did?”
Naraku nodded. Kagome motioned to the police. Naraku stood and took the oath and then sat back down.
“Are you comfortable now?”
“Not really…”
“I brought some finger print finder powder with me Naraku. If I scan it, that will be your finger print, right?”
“Yes, of course.”
“Okay.” Kagome nodded her head and the police office left. “Now I asked you how you knew the police that searched you house was dead, did I not?”
“No, you did ask me.”
“And you replied because you were searching for them for the evidence.”
“Yes, that's what I said.”
“And did you guys find the evidence?”
“No, the police had it.”
“Do you think the police I just sent away will come back empty handed then?”
“No, he's getting my finger print.”
“I also sent him to get the evidence for this case.”
“Oh, then in that case yes.”
“And what would you say if he came back with evidence?”
“I'd ask him how he got it.”
“And why would you ask him that?”
“Because we needed it.”
“Did you say earlier that you had touched Yasuo's neck?”
“No I did not.”
Kagome walked to the secretary and lifted the paper he had written. “Then why does it say on this you did say it?”
“I'm not sure.”
“You think the secretary is lying?”
“No.”
“Then why did she write that?”
“Maybe she misunderstood what I said.”
“Judge, if it's okay with you, I'd like to ask the secretary a couple questions.”
“If it's alright with her, be my guest.”
“What's your name?” Kagome asked the secretary as she wrote.
“Saundra.”
“Can I ask you some questions?”
“As long as I can type.”
“Sure. Now, did you misunderstand what Naraku had said?”
“I may have.”
“Was he talking to fast for you?”
“No, not at all.”
“Then why do you suppose you made that mistake if you haven't made any others?”
“I'm human, I make mistakes.”
“Is it right that you can't type actions?”
“No I can, but it's hard, so I usually don't.”
“So if I slammed my hand on the desk, you could write it?”
“Sure.”
“Then why do you suppose you wrote that Naraku had said `I crouched down and touched his neck to get his pulse, and he was dead.'”
“That's what he said.”
“Oh so he did say that?”
“Yes I believe so.”
“So why did you say you misunderstood him.”
“Objection! She's asked the secretary enough, let her get back to typing,” Sesshomaru demanded.
“Is Kagoem bothering you Saundra?” Jaken asked.
“No, just making me feel uncomfortable,” she replied.
“And why is that?” Kagome asked.
“Because I had lied.”
“Do you think if you took the oath you would have told the truth?”
“No.”
“Then you aren't telling the truth now?”
“No I am!”
“So, did Naraku say he touched Yasuo's neck?”
“If I typed it, he said it. I usually don't make mistakes.”
“So why did you feel obligated to lie to me?”
“I wasn't really lying, just stearing you away from the truth.”
“And why did you do that?”
“Naraku had told me to do so.”
“That's a lie!” Narkau yelled, standing up.
“Shut up and sit down Naraku,” Jaken yelled, shaking his head.
“Do you want to take a lie detectors test Saundra?” Kagome asked.
“Not really.”
“And why not?”
“If I say the truth Naraku will kill me.”
“LIER!” Naraku yelled, standing again.
“SIT down Naraku!” Jaken hit his gravel down three times, the lights went out. A female voice screamed.
“Where's the light?” Sango asked, walking along the walls and turning the switch on. When she turned it on, Naraku stood over Sesshomaru with a knife at hand. The knife was dripping blood. Jaken gasped at this as Naraku ran out of the courtroom, dropping the knife.
“I don't know what just happened here, but courtroom is dismissed so we can get this cleaned up. Court will reside at 4:30pm tomorrow night.” Jaken said shaking his head. Sango left the courtroom. Sango and Kagome walked out to Kagome's car silently. They reached it, and stood there.
“I forgot my purse Sango, want to wait here?” Kagome asked. Sango nodded. Kagome walked back towards the courtroom and when she walked in Jaken was kneeling over Sesshomaru's body crying hysterically. “I can't believe he killed you. I agreed to his terms and he still killed you…my love…Sesshomaru, my love.”
Kagome turned on her tape recorder as the judge said that. She grabbed her purse. “So what terms did you agree to?”
“Well he said that if I made sure Sango was guilty than he would let Sesshomaru live. When he found out that I was to deal with your case he insisted on talking to everyone who was going to be in my room. He threatened them one by one. I guess he didn't expect you to do your homework.”
“I didn't, it was gut instinct.”
“Miss. Kagome, here is the evidence.” The police man said. Kagome nodded and thanked him. “Make sure you stay safe and keep the evidence of Sesshomaru's death safe as well. I know that Naraku was behind the death of Yasuo.”
“How do you know?”
“I trust Sango,” She smiled.
“Yes. And now that Naraku has killed Sesshomaru I will have to be careful he doesn't go after me as well so we can continue this. Otherwise…I think you're screwed.”
“Why will Naraku be after you?”
“Because I will be going against my contract.”
