Sesshomaru sighed and moved away from the door. He sat upon his king sized bed, occasionally fingering his now oily hair. Kagome stayed where she was and clasped her hands behind her back, biting her bottom lip as she looked at Sesshomaru meekly. He looked up to in time to see her antics. Realizing that it was exactly what Rin did whenever she comprehended that she did something to upset him. Sighing once more, he muttered, “its ok.”
Grinning, Kagome bounded up to Sesshomaru and said brightly, “I really am sorry though. It was meant for Inuyasha anyway. He-“Kagome was cut off when Sesshomaru grabbed her hand. He pulled her towards him and their lips met for the briefest of moments. Kagome beamed and smiled a brilliant and pearly white smile.
“So did you kiss me to get me to shut up or did you mean it?”
Sesshomaru struggled to keep the smile off his face but eventually he lost the internal battle and it was not unlike Kagome's smile. But before he could give her another kiss, Kagome's phone rang. She dug into her jean pocket and fished the phone out. Raising the phone to her ear with a slender ear, she uttered a feminine, “Hello?”
At first, the other line was quiet, and after several `hellos' Kagome was about to hang up. Suddenly, breathing could be heard, and a husky voice hissed,” Tonight…..”
Upon seeing Kagome's stunned face, Sesshomaru flashed towards her, grabbing the cell and throwing it into mid air. As soon as he let go, the cell exploded with a deafening boom, the pieces flying everywhere. Kagome threw her hands up to cover her eyes but Sesshomaru had already pushed her against the wall and his arms created shields as his body curled over hers to protect Kagome from the debris.
Soon, running could be heard through the walls before the door was kicked open by Touga. Megumi ran in,” What happened! We heard a loud noise, like firecrackers.” Seeing Kagome's pale face, Kenji looked around the room, spotting the charred remains of what used to be Kagome's cell phone. When her face returned to its normal complexion, Kagome told the occupants of the room what had happened. Izayoi and Megumi stood quietly contemplating what should happen next. Kenji looked angry and Touga shifted from one foot to another. After a while, Touga spoke up,” Perhaps it would be better to move to a different location. If whoever did this stayed on the line for that long, its not impossible that he knows your exact location.”
Kenji replied,” Perhaps you're right, but that would mean it would be best to cut off many devices that can be used to track us. Where do you have in mind, my friend?”
“Shouldn't we discuss this in a more private surrounding?” Izayoi voiced, glancing at the open window. Megumi nodded her approval. Kenji and Touga agreed, leaving immediately. Sesshomaru grabbed Kagome's hand and they hurried off towards the basement. After Souta, Rin and Shippo were herded into the basement that served as a meeting room; Izayoi walked up to a wall and placed her hand on the smooth surface. A metal plate surfaced and scanned her hand, after confirming that she was an occupant of the house, the walls shook as they were soon replaced with iron plated walls, reinforcing the safety of the occupants' discussions.
“As for a different location, perhaps, the vacation house would be sufficient?” Touga addressed both Kenji and Izayoi. Kenji paced the length of the room, silently weighing the odds of their safety.
“No, it's too far away from Tsukiyo,” countered Izayoi.
“S-so? Is that not the point? To get Kagome as far away as possible, away from this malevolent stalker?” stuttered Kenji.
“No! If we stay here, whoever is doing this will assume that I will be moved to a farther place. However, he will never suspect that we are actually staying somewhere in this town!” Kagome offered.
“Ah, simple psychology. This might just work,” agreed Touga.
“No! It's too dangerous for you to stay here any longer than necessary. Kago-“Kenji blurted until Izayoi cut him off.
“Sorry for interrupting, but, maybe…” Izayoi looked pointedly at her husband. Touga sighed and nodded.
“I suppose it couldn't hurt to try,” Touga agreed, “We can both remove ourselves to a more secluded and safer location while remaining on this island.”
During the heated discussion, Kagome and Sango had drifted to together. Upon hearing Touga refer to Tsukiyo as an island, Kagome asked, “Tsukiyo is an island? I always thought that this was a town.”
“Nah, Tsukiyo may look small but it's really an island,” Sango explained.
“Alright, it's decided then. Everyone, go in groups and gather your belongings. We depart in half an hour. The sooner the better
