A/N: Again, thank you for the reviews. My fan fiction is
rated NC-17 for a reason. If you are under the age of 18, you are not
permitted to view this fan fiction. Edited versions can be found on
Fanfiction.net. Thank you.

Kero: I have to admit I was dying
laughing at your review. You are so enthusiastic. After staying up all night
with my little girl, your review definitely cheered me up! Thank you so much. I
describe everything because in my English classes I was always told to create a
picture that the reader could see. It would bring the reader more into the
story. I admit creating the mark was creative, but it wasn’t my idea. I
have read quite a few fan fictions that have the mark to prolong human lives.
If I could find the person who thought of it first, I would definitely give
them credit. However, there are so many fan fics with
that idea out there it’s impossible to track down the original creator of
the idea. I am so glad you thought the situation with Sesshoumaru and Kagome
was funny. I was worried that it wasn’t funny enough. When I went back and read it I was thinking that it
wasn’t really that funny and was planning on changing it once I was done
with the story and started reediting. Thanks to you I will keep it though,
maybe enhance it some on the reedit. Clan of Mikos does sound kind of silly,
doesn’t it? I will keep it though- I like it. As to your questions about
the plot, you could have guessed I wouldn’t answer them- just keep in
mind that the story will have a happy ending.

A/N: I know I said this chapter would be called
“Guilty Pleasures” but I decided to add another chapter in between!
This is mainly a background chapter. Enjoy!

*I don’t own Inuyasha or Inuyasha characters.*

Chapter Three: Careless Encounters

Inuyasha and Miroku sat side by side at the bar nursing
their beers, both males reflecting on the relationships with their girls.
Inuyasha was lost in thought, thinking about the past couple of months.

*Flashback*

Inuyasha was frustrated. He hadn’t been able to see
Kagome for the past 3 months because of her stupid job. He started coming to
the club around that time. He had decided to call Miroku and see if he wanted
to meet up. Miroku came, they hung out, and they went home. The next week, he
called Miroku and asked if he wanted to go hang out at the club again. So,
Miroku met him there again. This pattern continued until, eventually, it became
a weekly ritual for the guys. At first, Inuyasha thought it was the perfect
arrangement. He could hang out with his best friend, see some female flesh, and
indulge in alcohol and all the while Kagome could be happy thinking he
understood about her lack of attention. Then, seeing female flesh wasn’t
enough for Inuyasha anymore. He stopped going to the bar because the temptation
started getting to him. So he stayed home, watched some porno and took care of
things on his own, but sooner rather than later “Hangela”
wasn’t enough for him. So he had called Miroku to hang out and get his
mind off of sex. Sango was out of town on business and Miroku was bored. He had
just found out about his cousin’s engagement and decided to throw a
last-minute party. Inuyasha came over to help and the party got started.
Everything went smoothly. Some pretty cute females showed up with some friends
of Miroku’s cousin. Inuyasha thought that one in particular was pretty
cute and started talking to her. He didn’t think there was anything wrong
with a little innocent flirting. So they talked and eventually he was
introduced to Miroku’s cousin, Hojo, and his fiancé, Kikyo.
Hojo’s fiancé was gorgeous. She had waist-length black hair, long
legs, a figure most women would kill for, a pale oval face, large brown eyes
and the grace of a swan. Inuyasha tried to refrain from staring and said his
congratulations as he continued his conversation with the cutie from before.
The party peaked and soon settled down. Most people had begun to drift off. The
cutie said goodbye and Inuyasha grabbed his jacket preparing to leave. Miroku
was talking to his cousin so Inuyasha waited until he was finished so he could
say bye. He went to the bathroom thinking he might as well since Miroku’s
house was 30 minutes away from his apartment. On his way down the hall, Kikyo
stumbled into him. Inuyasha caught her and she looked up at him, her hands on
his chest.

“Excuse me, I must have tripped, gomen.” Kikyo said innocently looking up as she
started to stand on her own. She stared into golden-amber eyes, mesmerized.
Finally she shook herself out of her daze, removing her hands from his chest
she couldn’t help but think how nice all those hard muscles felt beneath
her fingers. Hojo worked all day long in an office so he never worked out or
did any strenuous work which would result in a muscular physique. He
wasn’t unhealthy or unattractive. He had more of a soft strength to him,
unlike the handsome demon in front of her.

“Hey, no problem. You okay now?” Inuyasha was
surprised at how nicely she felt against him. She was soft and delicate, unlike
Kagome who had hard muscles and a strong physique from all her defensive and
offensive training for her job. He tried to squash down the lust that was
quickly growing. When she gently pushed away from him and removed her hands
from his chest she unknowingly brushed past one of his nipples through his
shirt. Inuyasha shuddered, that had always been a tender spot for him. He
swallowed and cleared his throat.

“I should be going, I have a long drive.”
Inuyasha went to move around her to the bathroom when Kikyo took his hand.

“It was nice meeting you, Inuyasha.” She didn’t
know what had gotten into her! She didn’t even know this demon and she
was grabbing his hand! Her only thought at the moment was how she wanted to
touch him again. She could remember the warmth she had felt when he had held
her brief moments before.

Inuyasha looked down at their hands, still connected from
Kikyo’s gentle hold on him. Her hands were soft, her nails perfectly
manicured--so much unlike Kagome’s.

“It was nice to meet you too, Kikyo.” Inuyasha
gently squeezed her hand and pulled away from her. He had to get out of here.
This woman was making him feel things he shouldn’t be feeling.

‘I’ve been
away from Kagome for too long.’

Kikyo nodded as Inuyasha walked the rest of the way down the
hall. She made her way back to Hojo and took his arm. She was still a little
dazed from the encounter with Inuyasha.

‘How could I
feel this way? I am beginning to doubt my love for Hojo. How come he does not
make me feel warm and safe? Why must this happen after I have accepted his proposal?’

Kikyo glanced down at the ring on her finger which twinkled
softly in the light. She sighed.

‘I will have to
speak with Kagome. She always manages to clear my mind.’

Inuyasha drove the rest of the way home trying to clear his
head of the fuzziness that had yet to go away. Even though he was irritated
from her lack of attention, he missed Kagome. He missed the way she was always
able to brighten things up, regardless if it were a smile or a sarcastic yet
playful remark to one of his many mannerisms that annoyed her.

‘I just need to
see her and I’ll feel better.’

Inuyasha drove into the parking lot of his apartment
complex, made his way up the stairs and into the apartment. He took a shower
and lay down in his bed, falling asleep. He pulled a pillow towards him
murmuring, “So soft.”

*End of Flashback*

Inuyasha came back from his thoughts when Miroku shifted
next to him. Miroku had been fighting a similar battle with his feelings. He
hadn’t seen Sango in a while. She went on many business trips and though
they never lasted longer than a week, she would soon be off again when she
returned. Sango started her own fashion company a couple years ago. It became
very profitable and she began making trips to America to see if she could
introduce her new line of clothing overseas. Unlike Inuyasha, Miroku
didn’t blame her for her absence, though he did miss her terribly. Miroku
was currently struggling with the fact that he actually bought an engagement
ring. He, the geek-hentai who had groped more women
than the city of Kyoto
could hold, was going to propose to one
woman. Now he just had to break the news to Inuyasha,
and Sango of course.

‘Might as well
get it over with.’

“Inuyasha.” Miroku turned to face Inuyasha as he
pushed his beer aside and waved for his check.

“Yea? What is it?”
Inuyasha watched Miroku turn to face him with a serious expression on his face.
He wondered what was on his friend’s mind, but decided if Miroku wanted
him to know he would tell him. His curiosity was sated when Miroku spoke.

“Do you ever consider marrying Kagome?”

‘HUH?! This is not what I expected him to say.’ Inuyasha stared at Miroku in
shock, first he turned angry, then Kikyo’s face
popped into his head. He shook away the memory and prepared himself to let
Miroku have it—even if he doubted what he said somewhat.

“You can’t have her Miroku she’s mine.
Isn’t one wench enough for
you?”

‘Um, I think I
must have phrased that the wrong way.’ Miroku laughed. He noticed the
doubt behind Inuyasha’s words, but he wasn’t surprised. He knew
Kagome’s job was getting between the two. A couple fights had broken out
because of it and Miroku was positive that sooner or later they would break up,
even after 5 years of dating. He had a couple lumps on his head after
expressing his thoughts to Sango. She said that he shouldn’t jinx them,
that they were meant to be and he shouldn’t think of such unhappy
thoughts. He told Sango he was just being realistic which resulted in a couple
more lumps. He never felt like Kagome belonged with Inuyasha. Their auras
didn’t compliment each other at all.

“No, Inuyasha, I don’t want Kagome. I was merely
asking if you had ever considered asking for her hand in marriage?”

Inuyasha thought about it. He had been with Kagome nearly 5
years. Looking back, he had always been comfortable with the way things were,
until recently. He hadn’t
considered marrying her even when he knew she wanted it. He just thought things
were fine the way they were. He didn’t want to be that married guy that no one invited to parties, who worked 9 to 5,
and came home to take the kids off the wife’s hands. Nah, that lifestyle
was never for him. Never mind the fact that he worked 9 to 5 at present, but it
was different. His dad’s company didn’t really need him and he
could always take the day off if he wanted to. Sesshoumaru did most of the work
anyway. He didn’t have to work
to support anyone except for himself. He grew up as the son of the great Dog
General. All he had to do was learn how to fight in his dad’s army and
act like royalty, which he failed at in several areas. The bottom line was that
he didn’t want a commitment. He wanted to be able to walk away from
anything--unscathed.

“No, I never considered it, why?”

Miroku felt sad for Kagome. She had put her heart and soul
into Inuyasha’s hands and he would eventually stomp them out like the
dying embers of a fire. Again, he wasn’t surprised by Inuyasha’s
answer. He sighed.

“I am going to propose to Sango.”

Inuyasha couldn’t believe his ears. Miroku was going to propose?! He thought
if there was anyone on this earth that was looking forward to life as a
bachelor it would have been Miroku. Miroku laughed as Inuyasha sat there
speechless.

“I know what you are thinking, Inuyasha, and I am a little shocked myself. I’ve been with Sango so
long, I just can’t think of life without her.” Miroku held up his
hand when he saw Inuyasha start to say something. “Yes, I know she is
away all the time and that I have complained to you about it, but I do not
begrudge her for it. She has always wanted this company and if that will make
her happy I will support her in every way. Anyway, I wanted to know if you
would be my best man?”

“Yea, sure, but don’t come crying to me if you
get divorced because of your hentai ways.”

Miroku stood up, paid his bill and left Inuyasha to pick
himself up from the floor with a lump on his head.

~Naraku’s Office~

Naraku was sitting at his desk when he sensed a presence
outside his office door. The aura felt hollow, as if all life had abandoned the
area around the individual to whom the aura belonged. It could only belong to
one individual.

“Come in, Kanna.”

Kanna entered the office. She crossed the space between the
door and the desk. When she reached Naraku’s desk she leaned forward and
placed a DVD on Naraku’s desk. The DVD was labeled “Security
Surveillance.”

“A woman entered the building last night in the guise
of an employee. I believe she was a cop. She was trying to hide her aura, but
she could not suppress it from the likes of me. She was a strong miko and, judging by her appearance and stature, quite
possibly the reincarnate of Katsumi-sama.”

Naraku listened to all of this in quiet observation. He
remembered Katsumi. He had been obsessed with her beauty and presence. He had
declared to the world that she would be his. She refused furiously. This only
resulted in Naraku working harder to gain her hand. At first, he was civil. He
tried to woo her into courtship with sweet words and precious trinkets. When
that didn’t work, he started threatening. He never threatened her person,
she could defend herself well which was one of the reasons for his attraction;
he would threaten her family or friends or even children that he knew she cared
for. When he saw that threats weren’t working he decided to attempt to
kidnap her. This was not only stupid, which he will admit to himself now though
at the time he thought it rather clever, it was suicidal. She was a part of the
Clan of Mikos. Attacking her on her turf would result in his demise so he lured
her out with an attempt to harm one of the children. Katsumi never failed to
protect the innocent. She was the embodiment of purity. Katsumi, the obsession
of Naraku’s heart. Katsumi, Keeper of the Jewel. Naraku almost met his
end that day. If he hadn’t escaped with his miasma, he would have been
sent to the Underworld, more specifically, to the World of the Damned. Naraku
learned the meaning of her name that day and the destiny she would endlessly
live up to. Beautiful Victory.

“A reincarnation, you say? Tell me, Kanna, how sure
are you that she is a reincarnate? Does she have the same soul?”

Kanna knew that the mention of Katsumi-sama would interest
Naraku, hence the reason she said the woman’s name. She truly believed
that the woman she met was the reincarnate and had set about on discovering who
she really was. All this done beneath Naraku’s nose of course. Naraku
trusted her with every fiber of his being. He made her, after all, so why would
she betray him? Kanna’s stoic nature was more ingrained to her
personality than that of Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru, though almost a rival in his
manner, was taught at an early age to hide emotion. Kanna, by nature, was a
soul stealer, a Void Demon. She could feel like any other living being though
she could not physically express herself. Over the centuries she learned the
correct actions and such, but she was not created with the reflexes for
physical emotion. She had to learn what to do to show that she felt a certain emotion.
It took careful studying and several centuries, but she was now comfortable
enough with herself to mingle with society. Naraku thought that by creating her
he would have total control of her actions. How very wrong he was. Void Demons
were strongly tied with the Clans. They were the spies, the reinforcers
behind-the-scenes. It did not matter how they were made or who made them. If
you were a Void Demon- you were a Servant of the Pact.

“Hai, a
reincarnation. I am most positive it was the same soul. She smelt of
vanilla and chamomile, no scent of decay.”

Kanna watched as Naraku sat back in his chair and turned it
to face the windows behind his desk, a sign of dismissal. Though Naraku could
not see Kanna, she bowed anyway and left his office. Kanna made her way down
the hall and to the elevator thinking of how perfectly the meeting had gone.
She had planted the seed that will be Naraku’s undoing and the DVD of
surveillance she allowed him to see would only serve to make his destruction
more concrete. Naraku’s greatest weakness was his heart and that heart
belonged to none other than Katsumi. Kanna entered the elevator and pressed the
button for the lobby. She decided to go home and prepare. She had much work to
do.
