Yu Yu Hakusho Fan Fiction / InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Flickering Flame ❯ Chapter 7: New Assignment ( Chapter 7 )

A/n: Yes, it has been a while, sorry everyone I’ve had a very hectic schedule. Anyway, here is the next revised chapter of Flickering Flame.

STORY NOTE: As for the pairings, alternate endings will be to hard, since I’m going to build up the relationships in this revised version, but It’ll probably end up a three-way pairing. As to who it will probably be Kurama/Kagome/Kuronue. Or Sesshoumaru/Kagome/Kuronue, or even Sesshoumaru/Kagome/Kurama. But I’m open to suggestions, any at all.

Chapter 7: New Assignment

Three days past and the Hakai were in the Ningenkai once again---much to their displeasure. No one was happy with the new arrangement, however they would not disobey Inutashio-sama. They all held him in high respects, besides he was a father to three of the members---well surrogate in one of those cases. Inutashio-sama had asked that they go to the Ningenkai and pose as elite businessmen. Or in Kagome’s case, a secretary. How degrading. They would do so, no matter how much they deplored it.

After all it was only until they find the traitor.

And when they found the traitor---they would take great pleasure in killing them. No one betrays the house of the moon and gets away with it. After all, there was no other explanations as to why or how Shido, Lord of the South knew their every move. They all took great pride in their lands, both the West and the Northern provinces. Both were as of now under the control of Inutashio-sama, and Kagome. They were ‘joint rulers’ so to speak, although Kagome let Inutashio-sama deal with most of the political aspects, she and the others would patrol and fight off any intruders or youkai that challenged their rule.

“Keh, let’s just get this over with.”

Kagome smirked at Inuyasha.

“Lets.”

--------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------

Nothing.

That’s what they found.

Absolutely nothing.

Kagome sighed, shoving a hand through her dark locks. Standing on the balcony of the penthouse she shared with Sesshoumaru, Bankotsu, Kuronue, Kashaku and Shizen. The others were across town, posing in the ‘rival’ company to the one they were assigned to. She missed Shippo and Satori terribly, though she was loathe to admit it. The sooner they finished this damn mission the better. The longer they stayed in the Ningenkai the greater the chances Reikai finds out. That would not bode well.

Of course---Reikai probably already knew.

After all, they’d been here four days.

“Kagome...”

“It’s time to go to ‘work’.” Sesshoumaru said.

“Let’s go. I want to get this finished with quickly.”

It was time to play human.

How completely and utterly degrading.

------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------

 220;So what is it this time--Toddler?” Yusuke drawled.

“The Hakai are in Ningenkai. You have to find out why their here. And if they’re here to do as their namesake implies, you are to drive them back to Makai or kill them.” Koenma said with utmost seriousness.

Kurama slapped a hand over Yusuke’s mouth before something degrading and rude could emerge.

“What exactly do you want us to do?”

“You have to pose as workers in the same companies they have split up too. Kurama, Touya, Yusuke, You’ll be going to work at Taisho Inc. Kagome, Sesshoumaru, Kashaku, Kuronue, Shizen and Bankotsu are there. Hiei, Jin, Kuwabara you’ll be going to the rival company, Minami Enterprises. Naraku, Hiten, Juuromaru, and the Taguro brothers are stationed there.”

“You will by any means find out what they are doing there!” Koenma exclaimed, eyes wide with apprehension.

Botan quickly opened a portal to the Ningenkai, between the two destinations.

“Good Luck.”

Yusuke grumbled under his breath.

“So much for that vacation.”

------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------------------------------
Dark eyes narrowed in anger and annoyance.

So Koenma thought he could send his team in under the very Ningenkai company they owned? What a fool. But they’d allow the detectives to come in for now, perhaps they could provide some entertainment while they were stuck in the Ningenkai. After all, as much as they despised the Reikai, it was always fun to mess with them. After all, the hakai were well versed in creating all around havoc. It would be interesting to see them squirm out of certain--situations.

Yes.

They’d allow this.

At least until they got bored.

Then they’d deal with them with them.

------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------------------------

“K agome?”

“Yes Mr. Taisho?” Kagome answered obediently to her ‘boss’. All the while thinking of ways to torture the traitor for making her go through this. It wasn’t Sesshoumaru’s fault, Kagome reasoned, she just hated acting ‘inferior’ to people. Besides, she was never much one for taking orders, not unless they benefited her and her people in some way or another. Like this ‘order’, she’d play ball.

“Did you get those documents ready for the meeting this afternoon with Minami Enterprises?” Kagome nodded her head before following behind Sesshoumaru towards the boardroom.

Things were certainly going to get a little more interesting.

----------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------------
A/n : Well, that's it for this chapter, the next chapter will be longer, I promise! Why? Because in the next chapter the meeting, ‘secret conversations’, and a lead!
