VVVVV—Scene change
XXXXX—Time change
The car ride continued in silence, but Kagome could tell that something were on the men's mind, and 10 minutes later she found out what.
“So, guess who the popular one is?” One of the men asked her.
“What?” Kagome replied. She didn't understand what the men were saying, that she was popular?
“You know what we saw on TV while we were getting OUR food?” The other men asked, clearly saying that Kagome would not be getting her food for a while, but… what did they see?
“No…” She replied.
“Turns out your mama or whatever filed a report for you. Cops are looking for you everywhere now, and guess what we found out.” Kagome's eyes widened. Mama had told the cops? Filed a report? They were looking for her? She couldn't help but wonder if Inuyasha knew, if he even cared. She continued thinking about it when one of the men brought her back to the conversation.
“Turns out that someone saw you and recognized you back at the gas station in Kyoto , makes me wonder if they found our little… surprise. You didn't talk to anyone did you? You know the punishment if you did…” The man smirked. He knew that she didn't talk to anyone, the news anchor said so, but it was still fun to torment the girl.
“You know what, I think we'll have to punish you for being spotted, who cares if it was your fault or not. When we get to the next spot, there'll be a little beating for you. That will teach you not to mess with us, oh, and no food for a while either.” He smirked and scruffed up her hair. She jerked away, and gave him a cold enough look to annoy him a little, but not as much to anger him so her punishment gets worse. He sneered and looked back ahead to direct the driver.
Kagome couldn't believe it. Her punishment was a beating, and no food! She couldn't survive with no food, oh why didn't she eat her breakfast instead of rushing of to school! All she had that day was some chips, she still had her gum, but she doubted it would help satisfy her hunger. What was the surprise they were talking about anyway? She sighed. This was worse then any of the demons that she had fought so far, except for Naraku of course. She just didn't understand it.
This was supposed to be the safe era.
VVVVV
Mama couldn't believe it. They were in the back parking lot behind the mini mart, everyone staring down in the space. Inuyasha's nose had led them around the mart and to that space, and there was a piece of evidence that she assumed the cops didn't get to yet. There, in the spot where the back right car door would have been, was a blindfold with a note. The very same blindfold that Kagome had to wear, and the very same note that the kidnappers wrote. You couldn't see the note unless you looked carefully, because the note was tucked into the blindfold somehow. She didn't read the note, she had no idea what it said, but she hoped, prayed that they haven't killed her daughter yet. Out of the corner of her eye she saw one of the cops wearing plastic gloves bend over and put the blindfold in a plastic bag and handing it to one of the other cops, however with the note in hand he walked up to Mama.
“You want to read this I assume?” He asked her. To shocked to say anything, she nodded. He carefully unfolded the note and held it so that they could both read it. As usual, it was written with cut out letters from magazines and newspapers.
We have the girl. Stop the investigation or she will get hurt and I could `accidentally' pull the trigger. Stop the investigation, and we'll let you know later what we want, who knows, we just may keep her, and yes Mrs. Higurashi, we know your number.

She was in the car now, with Inuyasha sitting next to her. She didn't tell Inuyasha about the note, because it would just make him more mad or something, so instead she told him about the blindfold and how it was most probably used so that Kagome wouldn't know where they were or anything, although why they gave it up, she wasn't sure….
Inuyasha could tell that Mama wasn't telling him everything that happened, but he decided that wasn't important. He was able to help Kagome, even though not directly, but he helped the `investigation' as they called it, and that was good enough for him. As they neared the shrine, his ears pricked up as they heard something.
“Why is there a bunch of beeps coming from the house?” He asked. The beeps were annoying to him, he couldn't understand what they were for.
Mama's first reaction was the fire alarm, but seeing as she couldn't see or smell any smoke she thought of the phone.
“It's probably just the answering machine.” Seeing Inuyasha's blank face she continued. “You know the phone right?” At his nod she carried on. “Well, when you don't answer the phone then it goes to what is called an answering machine where the person can leave a message for us so that we can call them back.” She explained.
Inuyasha was shocked that there was such a thing, Kagome's era was way more advanced then his time, it felt strange being in Kagome's time without Kagome there with him. He sighed and walked into the house, he needed to think.
Seeing Inuyasha walk off, probably to Goshinboku (I know I said he walked into the house, so let's just say he's cutting through the house and out to the tree) She decided to go see if there was a message, because she could hear the beeping to. Walking up to the phone she say that there was a light that was flashing, indicating there was a new message waiting. She pressed the play message button and sat down on the couch so she relax while listening, but when she heard the shaky voice she shot back up.
At first there was nothing, just a pause, but then she heard a shaky voice that she recognized as Kagome's come on. She sounded so scared, she never heard Kagome sound like that. Just what have those men done to her?
“Ma—Mama? It's me… Mama, I'm scared! I don't know where we are anymore, but we are still in Japan . I don't know how much time I have till the men come back, so I can't talk much. I'm calling from a cell phone that I think belonged to one of the men, but I wouldn't be surprised if they stole it. There are two people that took me, they're both men… I'm so scared! I don't know if this cell phone has GPS, but I don't think it does… Mama! Help me! I don't know what to do anymore, fighting demons are, would, be easier then this!” There was a pause, then more talking. “Mama, I have to hurry, the men, they're almost done, and Mama, I—”A shriek that she recognized as Kagome's, then a sound of wind and then a muffled voice shout
“You Bitch!” She heard a man say. Then a loud sound that she recognized as a slap. She seethed with anger for one of the first times. They slapped her baby! Her daughter!
“Hey! Be careful! The phones still on! Turn it off before you start yelling!” She heard another man say.
Then there was nothing.
Ok! Sorry for the long wait, but I've been sick, and I still am a bit sick… STUPID MONO!!! Anyway, heres the chapter nice and long… sort of, but whatever. A lot of people have gotten the riddle right, so congratulations! Im gonna write a Halloween oneshot as a prize, not sure when it will be up, but before or on Halloween, so theres something that everyone can look forward to, and since so many people got the answer right (im swamped with emails!) I wont post who got right, ill just say to everyone or something, plus, I have an important poll, here it is :::
