InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Worthless Child ❯ 1800 Naraku1 ( Chapter 14 )

"1-800-Naraku1"

The next morning Kagome found Hojo waiting for her. Surprised that he was waiting on her, she happily greeted him with a kiss forgetting all of her mothers warnings for the moment. "Hey Hojo, what are you doing here?" Kagome asked puzzled.

"What Kagome, not happy to see me?" Hojo said as he mock frowned.

"No silly, I just didn't expect you to walk me to school today." Kagome laughed as she playfully slapped him across the chest.

As they started walking to school Kagome got the feeling that something was wrong. Hojo had been staring at her for the past block, as if he was trying to decide something. Hojo confirmed this train of thought when he asked, "Look, Kagome we need to talk."

"About what?" she replied confused.

"I know last time I heard something about you, I went about it all wrong. I should have come straight to you and asked what's up, but I didn't do that. This time, I gonna try and keep a level head about it. A friend told me that they saw you kissing that trash Inuyasha." Hojo said evenly.

Kagome let go of his hand and just stared at Hojo, lost for words. Hojo turned and looked dead in her eyes, anger burning in them. "So it's true. I didn't want to believe it, but seeing how you were always protecting him I knew you two were up to something. I just didn't think it had gone that far. Just, tell me why you would lower yourself to touch such trash. He's a lowly Hanyou, and deserves no sympathy, love, or friendship. He should die and leave everyone alone and return to the one place that would accept him for what he is. Hell."

Tears rolled down Kagome face. She didn't know what to do. Should she be mad at Hojo for saying those cruel things about Inuyasha, try to save her relationship with Hojo that was crumbling as they spoke, or feel sorry for him that he judged Inuyasha for what he was not who he is. The choice was made for her as Hojo lowered his head and spoke ever so softly.

"Kagome, I think we should see other people"

And with that, he turned around and walked away like a man on death row. Kagome stood there stunned watching him as he left her, to many thoughts running through her head to think straight. After a few deep breaths, one thought made itself clear `How did Hojo find out about that? No one was there besides Sango, and I know she would never tell a soul.' Kagome went from feeling miserable to hysterical as she saw Inuyasha walking to school, a sempai running up to him and clasping her hands around his eyes as she yelled "Guess who?" Wiping her eye's she ran home ignoring the bewildered people she ran past.

Inuyasha was almost at school when he felt hands clasp over his eyes yanking his head back.

"Guess who?"

Prying her hands off his face he turned around to face his mystery attacker. She came up to his shoulders, wearing a cute blouse and matching her skirt. as she fell off his shoulders her strawberry blond hair swayed backwards.

"Oh. Hey there Megu"

"Hey there silly, you hear yelling at your to wait up?" Megu said as she smiled.

With a smirk he replied back, "Did you now?"

"Yes I did, and I know you heard me. Don't ignore me like that" she added with a playful slap on the shoulder.

"I didn't know you went to this school."

"I thought I told you, oh well you know now" she shrugged as she latched herself onto his arm.

Uncomfortable with her acting so clingy in public Inuyasha slightly stiffened and looked around him. Many people were giving him glares of pure hatred, while others were looking at him with some renewed respect, even though they were covered in a layer of jealousy.

Noticing that Inuyasha had tensed up she looked at him and noticed that his gaze was wondering around. She followed where he was looking and noticed the same thing he did. Yanking on his arm she forced him to look at her.

"Ignore them. I told you I don't care what others think. Let them. I know a lot more about you than they do. I know you're a nice person at heart, and that's good enough for me. If you want me to stop hanging on you all you have to do is ask. I don't want you to feel uncomfortable around me. 'Kay?"

"Yea sure" Inuyasha mumbled.

After receiving a pout, he continued hoping to get her to stop with the attempted guilt trip "I'm amazed at how different you are. You're really not like everyone else. Most people just say that but ignore me all the same."

"I told you. I'm Megu, and not anyone else. But you still haven't answered my question."

"Question?" Inuyasha replied confused.

"Yea, if it bothers you that I'm clingy." Megu stated as if it was obvious.

"Oh, that. No it doesn't bother me. Its just that I'm not used to it is all. I told you no one ever paid very much attention to me and that for someone to willing hang out with me is different. I just have to get used to it because you like to. Right?"

"You got that right. I'm off to class. Meet me for lunch?"

"Sure, but don't you usually eat lunch with your friends?" Inuyasha said warily. Hanging on him was one thing, but to willingly spend time with him? That was something very different.

Looking down at the ground and placing both hands behind her she asked in a hurt tone, "Aren't you my friend?"

"I mean... Your other.... Never mind" Inuyasha shaking his head. "Sure as long as you bring something to eat."

As she brought her head back up she placed her hands on her hips she glared at him, "Isn't the junior supposed to bring the sempai lunch?"

"I thought the girl always brought the guy lunch?" Inuyasha replied with a smirk.

Blushing at the hidden meaning of his words, she dashed off to class. Before she disappeared into the building she turned her head, sticking out her tongue and yelled back at him, "No the girlfriend always brings lunch to her boyfriend!" And with that she ducked inside.

Inuyasha shook his head while he smiled till he saw his watch. He ran to class hoping he wasn't late.

Hojo walked away from Kagome, not wanting to hurt or punish her. No, if she was herself, she would never do anything with that trash. Clearly it was Inuyasha's fault. He must have either threatened her or used some kind of spell. That trash Hanyou would never get away with this he vowed to himself. To hell with waiting for Koga, he was gonna handle this himself. Walking to the back of the school where the strongest and cruelest youkai gang in town claimed as part of their turf. They were part of Naraku's gang. As he made it behind the gym, two youkai came forth glaring at him for trespassing into their territory.

"What do you want Human." the first sneered.

Bowing to them Hojo spoke with a pleading tone, hoping to show no disrespect since he didn't want a fight "I wish to speak with Kagura-sama, as I have a business proposition."

"Wait here human and I'll check to see if Lady Kagura-sama wishes to waste her time with such dirt." the second spat.

Anger seethed through him at having to lower himself. He didn't let this show however, and kept himself composed. `Heh, it will all be worth it as that trash Hanyou gets what he deserves.' "Thank you for wasting your time on such a low human." Hojo said in even humble tones.

When the youkai returned his face was a picture of shock. He turned to Hojo and said dazed, "Lady Kagura-sama will see you now. Please follow me."

He walked a bit further until he reached the woman claming to be Kagura. She wore a robe made of silk, which was odd in this day and age. This could be credited to Kagura's family owning one of the largest feudal Japan museums. Her raven black hair brushed her shoulders, and her eyes were hard to read. The emotion kept changing, as if battling each other for which would show in her eyes. They finally settled on a curiosity she couldn't hide.

"What is it you want human?" she asked, her brow drew down.

"I have a favor I wish to ask of you." Hojo asked claming.

"I only do favors for my friends" Kagura replied flatly.

"I wish to speak with Naraku."

Shocked beyond all belief Kagura just stood there as she stammered, "How do you know such things?"

"I have made deals with Naraku before, and I need one now. However I have no way of reaching him. I had his cell, but it has changed recently. I know your boss is Naraku, and I wish to speak with him Kagura-sama." he added with a bow.

"Your name." Kagura demanded, trying to mantain her image.

It was an order, not a question. Hojo hated being ordered around and it showed as he clenched his fists making the knuckles turn a bone white. "Tell him Hojo."

"You're lucky I'm in a good mood human. However if you're lying, let's just say your going to have be identified by your dental records." she stated whipping out her cell and dialing Naraku.

"What do you want Kagura, this had better be important." Naraku's voice teemed with annoyance.

"There is a human by the name of Hojo here demanding to speak to you. Do you know him?" Kagura said respecfuly.

"Hojo eh? That's a name I haven't heard in a while. He must be in a world of trouble if he needs to talk to me. Give him my cell have him call me anytime. Anything else?"

"No Naraku-sama. Thank you again for answering the call" Kagura said as he hung up.

Turning to face Hojo she told him, "His cell is 800 Naraku1. Now get out of here before I decide to use you as target practice for my new fan." Hojo noticed her grip tighten on the fan in her left hand and didn't want to find out what she could do with it.

"Thank you again Kagura-sama." Bowing again toward Kagura, he turned and left.

`800 Naraku1 huh?' He mused to himself.

A/N

Hmm, I wonder how many people saw that coming? I sure did! But I guess I'm a bit biased since I AM writing this, oh well. Anyway, we are getting into the plot and soon the starting of Inuyasha/Kagome pairing. I've got some basic idea's, but I don't like being basic. I want something weird, but for me to come up with weird stuff would take a while, and that would mean longer update time.

Some people asked about the other Inuyasha characters. I will use a lot more M/S when I/K become friends, which will be soon. There is just no place to put in Miroku right now. But soon so please be patient.

Xagor-sama

Actually he didn't see it coming really. We were talking on the phone a while ago and i suggested, wouldn't it be funny if Hojo hooked up with Naraku when Kagome dumps him? Mr god laughed and took to the idea. Didn't see it coming hmph. I get no respect. none I tell you!!!!!!!!

And Yay! Another 2 hours spent fixing the chapter. Can some1 tell him that he needs to stop writing these while he's sleepy? It makes it horrid to read! Anyway, hope you enjoy this chapter, I actually kinda had fun rewriting it.
