I do not own Inuyasha or anything related to it.

Inuyasha leaned against a wall, peering around the corner slowly. He had come across a couple more of those American goons, taking them out with skilled ease. But thought of having to kill living beings haunted his mind. "I shouldn't have to kill survivors. I shouldn't be so good at killing at all." He clutched the AR-15 tightly, he manged to pick up extra clips from the soldiers he had killed passing through a parking garage. "Hold it together, Yash. The girls are depending on you." He shook his head, then slowly walked around the corner, AR-15 shouldered and aimed straight ahead. He still had 15 blocks until he reached the police station. Glass cracked beneath his feet as he walked back a destroyed car. Sweat drenched his forehead and his heart was pounding as he started to sprint towards the police station. "I won't fail you Kairi. I promise."
Out in front of the police station were three guards, just behind the front gates. They stared out of the gates blankly, as if they were robotic. Inuyasha crept closer to the gate, readjusting the grip on the AR-15. He took a deep breath, and was about to open fire, when the gates began to open. A forklift carrying a large steel cage was exiting the gates. It set the cage down then returned behind the gates. Once the gates were closed the cage was remotely unlocked. A carrier staggered out from the cage, it stood still for a moment, then one of the guards tapped the gate. The carrier growled and let out a scream before running at jumping at the gate, trying to force it's way in.
"No... There's no way." Inuyasha watched the carrier as it repeatedly jumped at the gate. There guards watched it for a minute or two, before firing their rifles at it. Inuyasha stood there shocked at what he had just seen. Fear ran through him as the realization that those creatures were evolving. "I better hurry and find the girls." He inched forward towards the gates, then deciding against opening firing, and just walked up to the gate.
"Freeze!" The guards aimed their weapons at him.
"Whoa! Hold your fire! I'm not infected!" Inuyasha held the rifle above his head.
"What're you doing here?" The soldier barked at him. In turn, Inuyasha growled, but kept his cool.
"I was just looking for a safe zone. Those things are everywhere. You have to let me in." He pleaded with the soldiers.
"Where'd you get that weapon?"
"I pulled it from one of your dead commrades." Inuyasha glared at them.
The soldiers looked at him, then the one in charge, opened the gates. Inuyasha threw his rifle at one of the soldiers, pulled out his magnum and fired at the other two. He scored two shots on each of them then turned to the last one. "Where are the girls that were brought here!?" He aimed his magnum directly at the man's face.
"They probably took them to the holding cells. I don't know! I'm just following orders!" The man was starting to break down.
"You're gonna help me find them." Inuyasha pulled the man to his feet, grabbing his AR-15 from him. "Let's go. Move it." He pushed the man forward towards the entrance of the station. As they entered, Inuyasha noticed it was buzzing with activity, and suddenly, Inuyasha realized they were in deeper shit than he thought. Soldiers were running around left and right, people in HAZMAT suits were leading sick civilians somewhere, and in the midst of everything, he heard one of the soldiers talking about an evac, but from where and when he couldn't hear.
"Falkner!" A large, bulky man approached them.
The soldier Inuyasha forced to help him, Falkner, was standing at salute. "General Simmons, sir!"
"Who's the civilian?" Simmons eyed Inuyasha, and Inuyasha glared at the larger man.
"He showed up at the gates looking for a safe place, sir."
"Is that so? Where'd you come from civilian?"
"Okinawa." Inuyasha answered staring at the man coldly.
"Okinawa? That's impressive. Everyone was reported dead when my men in there. You're a lucky man to have escaped." Simmons grinned at Inuyasha, "What can I do for you...?" Simmons paued waiting for Inuyasha, to give his name.
"Inuyasha."
"Inuyasha. What can I do for you?"
Give me my friends back. Inuyasha thought, but he rubbed his eyes, "A place to sleep would be nice."
"Of course!" Simmons turned to Falkner, "Falkner, show him to the holding cells." He turned back to Inuyasha, "Don't fret. It's perfectly safe. It's the only place in the building with beds." Inuyasha nodded. Simmons dismissed them and Falkner led Inuyasha down a hallway.
"Where are the holding cells?" Inuyasha held his magnum at Falkner's back.
"Down in the basement. You won't make it out of here alive." Falkner snapped at him.
"At least, I'll live longer than you." Inuyasha drove the butt of the magnum into the back of Falkner's head, dropping him to the floor. He gathered the AR-15 Falkner was carrying, and a set of keys, which hopefully opened the cells. He continuedd down the hallway until he reached the stone steps down into the basement. Inuyasha took the stairs two at a time, keeping his magnum aimed ahead of him. The basement was dark and cold, everything seemed to be of stone. His steps echoed for miles down into the empty hallways. Water trickled down onto the stone floor somewhere nearby. Inuyasha could hearing a guard yelling at someone, and the small sounds of a sobbing girl. "Kairi." Inuyasha whispered to himself, walking briskly towards the sound of the yelling guard. The yelling continued to grow louder as he navigated the halls of the basement.
"Inuyasha!" It was Kairi, and Inuyasha broke into a run, with no care about anything else except getting to the child. Inuyasha barged into a room and saw a guard grabbing Kairi's arm roughly, dragging her from her cell.
"Hey!" Inuyasha yelled aiming his magnum at the man, "Let her go!"
"Who the fuck are you?" The guard yelled back at him, releasing Kairi to aim his rifle.
"I'm here for the girl." Inuyasha adjusted his grip on his magnum. Kairi took advantage of the opportunity and swung a right hook right into the guard's genitals. The guard howled and went to grab Kairi, but Inuyasha fired his magnum, hitting the guard in the chest. The guard fell to the floor gripping at his chest as his life left his body. Kairi ran and jumped into Inuyasha's arms as he knelt for her. She hugged him tightly and cried into his shoulder. "Shh, it's okay baby. I'm here. I made you a promise, and I plan on keeping it." Inuyasha kissed the girl's temple several times. "Where are Matsu and Mitsuki?"
"I-I don't know. Some man came in here and took them. He said something about experiments. I'm scared." She hugged Inuyasha tightly as he stroked her hair.
"I know, sweetie. We're going to get out of here, but we need to find Matsu and Mitsuki first." Inuyasha stood and checked the cylinder on the magnum and the clip in the AR-15. "Okay, I need you to stay close to me, and do everything I tell you to, understand?" She nodded slightly. "Let's go, sweetie." Inuyasha led Kairi out of the room, the halls were still silent, so the other soldiers hadn't heard the gunshot, which played out in his advantage. They moved forward slowly, in case a guard did happen to wander down the hall, they'd be able to hear him coming.
"What's going to happen to Matsu and Mitsuki, Inuyasha?" Kairi whispered from behind Inuyasha.
"I don't know baby, but we'll find them before anything bad happens to-" Inuyasha stopped short when he heard the echo of a guard's boots coming down the hallway towards them. Inuyasha quickly opened the door they were beside and ushered Kairi inside. "Stay quiet, baby." He shut the door behind her. He waited casually by the door, whistling to himself. The guard came into view and immediately yelled at Inuyasha.
"What're you doing down here!?"
"Uh, Falkner brought me down here so I could sleep, but I had to take a piss. So, I'm looking for the pisser." Inuyasha fiddled with his hands a bit as he spoke.
"Step away from the door." The guard raised his rifle to Inuyasha, which made Inuyasha grin.
"You guys are terrible with hospitality, you know that?" Inuyasha jammed his hand into the guard's throat causing him, to drop the rifle, and quickly Inuyasha wrapped his arms around the guard's neck into a sleeper hold. The guard struggled against Inuyasha, trying to break his grip, but Inuyasha just squeezed tighter. The guard's body went limp against Inuyasha's body, and Inuyasha finally released the guard, letting him fall to the floor. Inuyasha entered the door he had pushed Kairi into, she was standing behind a large metal pipe in the corner of the room. The room looked completely different from the rest of the station, everything was metallic and everything was technologically advanced. Computer screens sat along both side walls, montoring something, the other side were secruity cameras. Inuyasha could see himself and Kairi in one of the screens. At, the far side of the room was a large elevator.
"Are we going on the elevator, Inuyasha?"
"We may not have a choice." They walked over to the elevator and stepped in. The elevator had six sublevel buttons on the panel. "Well, I guess we'll just start with one and work our way down." He smiled at Kairi, "Stay behind me when we go down, okay?" She nodded. Inuyasha pressed the S1 button on the panel and it lit a bright red color, metal gears squealed to life and slowly the elevator began to descend.
Sesshomaru snapped the neck of guard he encountered in the back area of the police station. He had heard the guard speak of an extraction from City Hall at dawn, which gave him exactly seven hours. He had sent the others without him, after a long arguement with Rin, she agreed. Sesshomaru realized the soldiers parading around the area weren't friendly when he saw a group fire upon a woman begging for help.
"The subjects are being transported to Sublevel four right now, General." A voice from the soldier's radio spoke. Sesshomaru stopped and listened to it. "Let go of me you assholes!" It was a woman's voice this time. "Where are you taking us!?" Sesshomaru recognized the voice as Mitsuki.
"She's alive?" Sesshomaru picked up the the radio and held it beside his ear.
"General, I'm going down to the holding cells. Ricky hasn't reported in and there's no answer from his walkie." A gruff voice replied, who Sesshomaru assumed was the man in charge. "Copy that." Sesshomaru tucked the radio into his pocket and scanned the area.
"I have to get in this damn place to find Mitsuki." Sesshomaru walked towards the large gated entrance of the underground garage. The control panel on the wall beside the gate was lit up. He pushed the green button and slowly the gate began to lift. He ducked underneath it and scrambled quickly behind a police cruiser when a guard entered through a door at the far side. The guard hadn't seemed to notice him, so Sesshomaru sat quietly behind the cruiser waiting for the guard to come into view. A symphony of moans echoed into the garage from outside. Sesshomaru cursed himself and began to move towards the door at the farside by ducking behind multiple cruisers, careful to stay out of sight of the guard, who was now frozen is place from fear. A mob of carriers stumbled into the garage and stopped when they saw the guard. The guard fumbled with his rifle as he brought it to his shoulder and began to fire. It became apparent to Sesshomaru at that moment, that these men weren't really soldiers, but just hired goons. The guard fired wildly at the mob, chunks of flesh flew in all directions but none dropped to the floor. Suddenly, the mob charged at the guard, who seemed just as surprised as Sesshomaru when they started running.
"Oh fuck this." Sesshomaru left his cover behind the cruisers and began to run to the door. The guard tried to reload his rifle, but a carrier lunged ten feet and pinned him to the ground, digging its teeth into the man's neck. The guard's screams were short lived as his esophagus filled with his own blood. The carriers grouped around the guard, trying to get a bite of the living flesh, but several had chased Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru pumped his legs as hard as he could, reaching the door as a carrier lunged at him. He pulled the door open and dashed through the opening as the carrier slammed into the door, but it hadn't shut. Sesshomaru kept running down the halls of the basement as the carriers began to flood in after him. He nearly tripped over the body of a guard laying in the hall as he rounded a corner.
Sesshomaru quickly slipped inside the door, shut and locked it behind him. "Why the fuck are those things running? They shouldn't be able to do that." Sesshomaru bent forward, hands on his knees and tried to catch his breath. Sesshomaru was now in, what he thought was, some kind of control room. Their were screens everywhere but only a dozen or so displayed video footage. The others were a jumble of lines and numbers. He gazed over at the elevator that had just stopped at Sublevel one. "Must have been the General. I'm coming for you bastard." Sesshomaru called the elevator back up and waited patiently. The elevator arrived and quickly Sesshomaru slipped inside. He clicked the S4 button and the elevator began its descent to Sublevel four. It was the longest elevator ride of Sesshomaru's life, he had his glock gripped and at the ready as the elevator doors slid open, revealing another control room. This time there were only four screens, each displaying a room somewhere on the floor. He spotted Mitsuki in one of the cameras. She was strapped to an operating table, and she struggled with all her being, as a large man paced around the table. The camera feedback had no audio so it was difficult for Sesshomaru to see what he was saying, but he assumed it wasn't very good.
He marched down a walkway deeper into the maze that was Sublevel four, he had quickly became lost, in the halls of this place. Everything looked exactly the same, metallic walls, and bright lights flashed everywhere he went. A loud buzzing soundd drilled into Sesshomaru's ears, irritating him. He growled as he entered a room, to escape the sound, the room was very small and contained several computers and hundreds of glass vials that contained a strange greenish liquid. Sesshomaru walked to one of the computers and clicked the screen. Instantly, dozens of prgrams sprang to life, files and video logs displayed on the screen. He scanned over one file that spoke of a man-made virus that attacked the brain cells, turning the host into a violent and cannibalistic monster, it transferred through body fluids, and reanimated recently deceased victims. It was estimated that only one percent of the population of the world would be immune to it. Sesshomaru clicked on a separate document which spoke of a vaccine in progress, it worked 65 percent of the time, but if it failed, the side-effects were worse than the virus.
Sesshomaru turned to the vials that lined the walls of the room, "This has to be that virus. Why would someone make this shit?" He set his glock down, and picked up one up of the glass vials. Sesshomaru gripped it tightly and tucked it into jeans. He picked up his glock and exited the room, a barrage of of gunfire echoed into the hall from the floors above. Sesshomaru darted down the hall in case the gunfire attracted guards from this level. He ducked behind a corner when he heard footsteps in the hall just ahead of him. He gripped the the glock tightly, he held it forward as the person walked into view. Sesshomaru was ready to fire, but stopped himself when he recgognized Matsu in front of him.
"Matsu?" He whispered loudly, she didn't react immediately, she turned to look at him and then fell to her knees, clutching at her stomach. The front of her shirt was drenched in blood, and she was extremely pale. Sesshomaru dropped his glock and rushed to her side. "What happened?"
She stared at him for a second, and gasped, "Get out of here, Sesshomaru... They know you're here."
"Shh, don't talk." Sesshomaru stroked her cheek gently.
"Find Mitsuki. I heard Simmons say she was immune." Her breathing became ragged, "Sesshomaru?"
"Yes, Mitsuki?"
"Promise me you'll kill that bastard." She gave him a weak smile, and he nodded. Matsu closed her eyes and her life slipped from her eyes. Sesshomaru leaned forward and kissed her cheek.
"I'll make him pay." Sesshomaru filled with rage as he stood. He marched down the hall, with one thing on his mind. Finding and killing General Simmons.

"Find Mitsuki. I heard Simmons say she was immune." Her breathing became ragged, "Sesshomaru?"
"Yes, Mitsuki?"
"Promise me you'll kill that bastard." She gave him a weak smile, and he nodded. Matsu closed her eyes and her life slipped from her eyes. Sesshomaru leaned forward and kissed her cheek.
"I'll make him pay." Sesshomaru filled with rage as he stood. He marched down the hall, with one thing on his mind. Finding and killing General Simmons.
