InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Trucker ❯ Chapter 8

Inuyasha sat at a table, across from the detective that had been brought in. On the table were a few pictures of Inuyasha's knife and Haitani's dead body. Inuyasha was sitting back, completely at ease with the situation. The detective was leaning over the table, staring at him. Inuyasha stared back.

 

 

“Are you going to ask me something, or are we just going to sit here?” asked Inuyasha snarkily.

 

 

“Did you kill Ginta Masayuki?” asked the detective.

 

 

Inuyasha nodded, “Aa.”

 

 

“Nan de?” asked the detective.

 

 

“He had the full intentions of violating my girlfriend.” he said simply, emotionlessly.

 

 

“A human girl?” asked the detective.

 

 

Inuyasha growled, but nodded. “That bastard had violated her before we were together and he wanted to do it again. So, I slit his throat.”

 

 

The detective sighed, “Tell me exactly what had happened.”

 

 

Sighing, Inuyasha told him the tale. “The first time it happened, she didn't press charges, but I'm betting it's in your files. He caught her in the bathroom of her work and had her shirt off, working on her pants. I caught him at a restaurant one day after she told me, and I warned him not to come near her again. Well, I got a call about three hours ago from my girlfriend saying he was at the restaurant with a couple of thugs. I got my ass over there to find Masayuki putting his fucking mouth onto Kagome's.”

 

 

“Kagome is your girlfriend?” asked the detective.

 

 

Inuyasha nodded and went on. “So, I shoved him off. He ran for it while his thugs came after me, but I kicked their asses and told Kag to go back inside. She did, I caught up to Masayuki, tackled him, and punched him a couple times. Then I slit the bastard's throat after a couple of words.”

 

 

The detective was silent for a moment. “Do you remember the conversation you two had before Ginta's death?”

 

 

“I had told him that I warned him. I told him that by rights, I could kill him for just looking at her the way he had. He said he thought we were just friends, which we had been two weeks ago. We just recently got together. I said that even if I had been, I still would've kicked his ass. Then I asked for his last words and he said his brother was going to kill me for killing him. I said fat chance and killed him.” said Inuyasha emotionlessly. His thoughts were focused on Kagome, and he swore that if Tomoyuki was any closer to her than he had been when he left the cell, he'd break into Tomoyuki's cell and kill him with his bare hands.

 

 

The detective nodded. “Is this the weapon you used?” he pointed to the picture of Inuyasha's bloody knife. Inuyasha nodded. “Just to let you know, this city is predominantly demon. Had this been a human dominant city, you'd be in jail and having your trial next week. But we don't go by human rules, now do we?”

 

 

Inuyasha smirked. “So I'm off the hook?”

 

 

“If you can prove that your girlfriend was being violated.” said the detective.

 

 

“Then go get her, she's in my cell right now.”

 

 

The detective nodded, looking to the blackened window to his left and nodded again, and then looked back to Inuyasha. “You're a lucky one, you know.”

 

 

“Always have been.” said Inuyasha, his smirk deepening.

 

 

Kagome was led into the interrogation room and she wrenched her arm free from the cop that was leading her and walked to Inuyasha. She sat in the chair next to Inuyasha and looked to the detective. “Hai?”

 

 

“All we need is the proof that you were being violated, and your boyfriend here will be off the hook.” said the detective.

 

 

Inuyasha grumbled, “All you need to do is get a demon in here to sniff at her. His scent is all over her.” he said.

 

 

“We need to make sure that she wasn't willing.” said the detective. Inuyasha growled loudly, but Kagome touched his arm and he quieted, instead glaring at the detective. “Go ahead, Miss.”

 

 

Kagome looked a bit frantic, and Inuyasha smelt her scent spike. He took her hand and she sobbed quietly, the tears welling up again. “Just tell him what you remember, Kag.” he squeezed her hand gently and she sobbed again.

 

 

“The first time?” she asked timidly. The detective nodded. “I had gone to the bathroom at work and he was in there. He shoved me against the wall and he...” she sobbed, feeling like she couldn't go on. She looked to Inuyasha for support and he backed his chair out some. She stood and sat onto his lap, leaning back against him.

 

 

“He kissed me... hard. I had a bruise for a couple days from it.” Inuyasha growled gently, she hadn't told him that part. “He... he tore away my shirt and then... he told me he was going to take away my biggest treasure...” she sobbed, “He pulled out a knife and said that if I didn't cooperate, he'd do it when I was dead...” Oh yes, Inuyasha was definitely going to talk to her when they got home. “I let him have his way; I just couldn't bear to be dead... He had gotten my shirt off and was licking...” she closed her eyes and motioned towards her collarbone and neck. “He was trying to get my pants off. Then the restaurant security walked in. I didn't press charges, because Inuyasha would've lost his temper.”

 

 

“The second time?” asked the detective. Kagome blanched, but Inuyasha was holding her hands across her stomach and kissed her temple gently.

 

 

“I was at work, and before I left home that morning, Yash told me that if anything happened, I was to call him immediately. I was working when he walked in with four guys. I finished the order, dropped it off in the kitchen and told the busboy to get their drinks. I called Yash right then, and Haitani came into the kitchens after me. I ran out into the back alley, and followed me. One of his minions grabbed me and shoved me against the wall. Haitani took over and held my wrists against the wall.” She held up her wrists, which showed bruising and a few small cuts. “He... He kissed me again, harder than before.” There was indeed a flowering bruise on her lips. “He said that he was going to actually get away with it this time. Then Inuyasha showed up.”

 

 

The detective nodded. “Convinced yet?” asked Inuyasha.

 

 

Nodding again, the detective stood. “All you have to do is sign both of your signatures on a release form.” he said, sliding the paper over to them and tossing Inuyasha a pen. Inuyasha signed his and then handed Kagome the pen. She signed it and they stood. “You're free to go. We may call you later, to make sure about prints and blood.”

 

 

Inuyasha nodded to him, “Arigato.” he stopped at the door, “Can I go visit one of my friends down in the cells?”

 

 

“Ishii, take this man to the cell room so he may visit his friend.” The detective waved a dismissing hand and filled out the paperwork.

 

 

><

 

 

“Oi, Tomoyuki.” hissed Inuyasha through the bars. Tomoyuki stirred and looked up at Inuyasha.

 

 

“You get off?” he asked. Inuyasha nodded, “Good.” he nodded to Kagome with a smile. She smiled and nodded back. Tomoyuki looked back at Inuyasha. “See you, I guess.”

 

 

“Come here real quick.” he said. Tomoyuki stood up and Inuyasha handed him one of his business cards. “Ring me up when you get out.” Tomoyuki nodded.

 

 

><

 

 

Inuyasha and Kagome were walking back home, hand in hand, and in silence. Kagome looked up at her savior. If it weren't for him, she'd probably be dead long ago. She remembered when he had shoved her out of the way of an oncoming truck, saving her life, and had ended up being in the hospital for a few weeks. He had beat up Hakkaku his fair share of times when he had threatened her. He had saved her from suicide, twice. And he had saved her from Ginta.

 

 

Kagome stopped and looked him in the eye, “Yash?”

 

 

He turned and took her other hand, staring her in the eyes. “Yeah?”

 

 

“Thanks.” she said. He gave her a puzzled look.

 

 

“For what?”

 

 

“For just being there... All the time. If I tried to count the times that you've saved my life, or covered my ass and gotten in detention just so I would get Student of the Month, or talked me out of a depression, I'd probably hit infinity within an hour.” She smiled up at him.

 

 

“You think so?” he asked. She nodded. “Wanna try?” he smirked.

 

 

She laughed, her eyes sparkling. His smile faltered some and she looked up at him with worry on her features. “Nani?”

 

“You do know what a bite mark on your shoulder means, right?” he asked.

 

 

“For the five hundredth time, hai.” she rolled her eyes.

 

 

Inuyasha grinned, “Can I tell you again?”

 

 

Kagome sighed, “When we get home.”

 

 

“Okey dokey.” he said with a smirk, and then released one of her hands and they set off down the street, through the snow once again.

 

 

><

 

 

Inuyasha hugged her tightly to him, watching a horror movie. The chainsaw maniac got closer to Sarah and... Commercial. Damn television movies. Kagome turned around to look at him. “You never did tell me again,” she said.

 

 

“True.” he said, planting a butterfly kiss onto her lips. “A mark on your shoulder would be a sign of my everlasting love for you,” he kissed her neck gently, “Your soul,” he kissed her neck again, “Your body,” he purred some, kissing her neck again, “Your mind,” he kissed her temple, “Your heart,” he kissed her nose, “And your giggles.” She giggled on cue, and he smiled. “It gives me the heavy responsibility to keep you out of danger and harm's way, to keep you happy, and to bring home the bacon. It gives you the responsibility to be my common sense, to keep me happy, and to bear and raise my children. It also says that we will be together forever. Our souls are bound, and will go to heaven or hell together. If one of us dies before the other, then we will know, but we will be able to contact each other through the barrier. That way, we will be together to the end of time.” he kissed her lips again.

 

 

She smiled, parting from him. “Sounds better than marriage.” she said.

 

 

He shrugged, “Nah, just some love story meant to goggle at.” he smirked and she smacked him across the chest.

 

 

“Itai...” he whined.

 

 

“Shush, the movie's back on.” she hissed. He grinned and she turned back around, snuggling up next to him and squeaking every time something scary came on, hiding in his shirt.

 

 

><

 

 

Kagome had fallen asleep by the end of the movie, and he smiled down at her. He lifted her gently and got up, heading for the phone. He stood on the opposing side of the wall, his back and the wall to Kagome. He kept an ear tuned to her, only hearing the steady sounds of her breathing. The phone rang a couple times before it was actually answered.

 

 

“Yash? It's two a.m., man, go back to bed.” said the sleepy Miroku.

 

 

Ignoring the comment, he plowed on. “I need your help, Miro.”

 

 

“With what?” sighed Miroku, sitting up in bed.

 

 

Inuyasha glanced around the wall to make sure that Kagome was truly asleep. “I want to propose to Kag.” he said quietly.

 

 

“Really now?” came Miroku's shocked voice.

 

 

“Aa. I know she's the one, and I know how I want to do it, but I need your help.” he said.

 

 

“Can we talk about it later?” he yawned, “I need a full eight hours of sleep to take one of Sango's beatings.”

 

 

Inuyasha shook his head with a smirk. “You guys really need to get together.”

 

 

Miroku scoffed, “Sure, tell Sango that. I'm going back to bed. Night.”

 

 

“Night.”

 

 

><

 

 

Okay... I kinda screwed up on the 11th chapter, which is supposed to be the last one. So, that might take me a while to get hammered out. ^^ I'm not good at ending things. Anyways, as you may have noticed, I've been using a lot more Japanese in my stuff. Reason: I learned more Japanese words. ^^ I have most of them written down, but a few are from memory. Anyways....
