Kagome stared at Sesshomaru in outright disbelief. Her Uncle Hideki could not possibly be responsible for a murder. Yes, he had always been a little on the shady side and he was extremely prejudice against youkai and hanyou alike but the thought that he would actually stoop to murdering someone was ridicules.
“No, that’s not true.” Kagome said her voice hardening in preparation of defending her uncle. Sesshomaru had to be lying. He had to be. This was probably some kind of mind trick to get her to cooperate with whatever it was he had planned. Yes, that was it. He was trying some kind of jedi mind trick on her.
“Miko, you are aware of your uncle’s disgust of youkai, are you not?” he said towering over small form. “You have witnessed the laws he passed; the very laws that keep anyone of demonic origin on a tight leash and condemn the ones that will not conform to death. Dozens have already died under his laws. Why would the murder of one youkai seem impossible to you?” he said pinning her with his heated gaze, daring her to deny his claims.
“He… he created them? …but that’s…he couldn’t have.” Kagome stuttered.
“I assure you it is quite possible miko. I was there when he made the declaration and he seemed most proud of himself. How is it that you are of his own blood and did not know the horrors he instilled on my kind?”
Kagome stared at him in abject horror. She had known about these laws, of course she did-they were a violent topic for everyone nowadays. The ‘conduct laws’- as they were now called- had been in effect now for about fifteen years and were horribly restricting on youkai and hanyou alike.
The laws stated that no demonic powers of any kind- helpful or otherwise- were to be used unless they had special permits from government officials and they only gave those out if the youkai agreed to work for them. The second law stated that all demonic markings and features must be kept hidden while in public with the use of amulets provided by the human monks and mikos. Any demon not able to hide its features was forced to live in designated areas of the forest. The last one Kagome thought was the most horrible of all, no matings- be they between two youkai or a youkai and a human- where allowed at all. The laws stated that if demon kind felt the need to cement their relationships then they could marry under human law.
Kagome had always hated these laws and had participated in many rallies in an attempt to have them eliminated. The government refused to listen. They claimed that these laws were made to protect humans from the ‘evil powers’ the youkai possessed and to ensure equality among their citizens. Though everyone knew the conduct laws were passed out of fear of youkai. The government feared that youkai, as powerful as they were, might decide they want to take over.
No one had ever told her it was her uncle that had created the very laws she hated so much. Knowing her uncle though, it wasn’t that that hard to imagine him being responsible. He always had a bone deep revulsion against youkai and Kagome could recall many arguments on the subject between her father- who shared Kagome’s beliefs- and her uncle. Still…he couldn’t possibly have murdered somebody…could he?
Sesshomaru watched the young human with interest. Was it possible that she really did not know what Hideki was responsible for? Genuine surprise and disgust had both been apparent in her scent so he supposed it must be true. It was odd how apparent her dislike was for the wrongs committed against his kind though he should have guessed her reaction seeing as how she was Katsuo’s daughter. He couldn’t believe he hadn’t noticed it earlier. Her every movement and word reflected her father...Katsuo would be proud of her.
“Come miko. I was under the impression you would combust if you did not relieve yourself.” He near laughed when the human went wide-eyed at his subtle teasing. As far as he was concerned the girl was no longer a threat. He would treat civilly if only for the fact that she was Katsuo’s daughter. He nodded in approval as she followed wordlessly; still lost in the newfound information she was given. If only she knew the whole truth…He wouldn’t be the one to tell her either. Not even he was that cruel.
After she was done Sesshomaru promptly escorted her back into his bedroom. He was a little surprised when she made no effort to argue with him. Was the news really so shocking? Surely she must have known what sort of man Hideki was; she had been living with him for more than a few years now. Inuyasha and Miroku were waiting on them in the bedroom. They immediately hushed when they noticed the somber expression. They looked at him in worry probably wanting to know if he had done anything to harm her. He shook his head, hoping they would get the hint to leave her alone.
“Are you gonna tie me up again?” she asked looking at the ropes distastefully.
“So long as you behave I see no reason for restraining you.” Miroku and Inuyasha looked at him in surprise. Kagome however didn’t notice. She walked to the futon and sat on the edge. She was quiet for a long moment and Sesshomaru almost left when she looked up at him.
“If I asked what you had planned for my uncle would you tell me?” She said, her large cerulean orbs eyeing him with concern.
“Why ask questions you know you will not like the answer to.”
“It’s my uncle Sesshomaru.” Another odd look from Inuyasha and Miroku, “no matter how bad of a person he may be he is still my uncle. I need to know.” He gave her a hard look before consenting.
“You already know what I want. I want him dead. Not only for what he did to my father, but for what he did to all of the youkai here.”
“I understand.” She sighed. “and I agree that he has to be stopped.” She said surprising everyone in the room. “But killing him isn’t the answer Sesshomaru.” She flinched slightly when he growled at her but otherwise refused to back down. He glared at her before stalking angrily out of the room.
“Why the hell did you have to go and piss him off? Now he’s gonna use me as his personal punching bag until he calms down. How the hell did you get him to tell you his name anyways?” The hanyou glared at her.
“I asked.” Kagome said shrugging her shoulders. She smiled lightly as the pervert laughed heartily.
“You my dear are a delight. My name is Miroku and the one in a perpetually bad mood is Inuyasha. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance.” He said bowing dramatically. Kagome giggled, he really was charming when he wasn’t trying to feel her up. Inuyasha scowled at him and muttered something about perverts and ass whoopin’ before exiting the room.
“May I ask a question?” Kagome said as Miroku sat next to her on the futon and eyeing him warily as he moved closer to her.
“You want to bare my child?! I knew you could not resist my charms! Tell me, was it my boyish good looks that got to you, perhaps it was my marvelous personality.” He said wagging his eyebrows at her. He sighed dejectedly when she did nothing but glare at him. “So cruel…just ignore the sound of my heart breaking and ask your question.” He pouted playfully. Kagome rolled her eyes but smiled none the less. For kidnappers these guys were actually pretty fun.
“I was wondering if you could tell me who Sesshomaru’s father was. The name Taisho sounds familiar but I can’t quite put a finger on it.” Miroku’s violet eyes dimmed noticeably as his playful demeanor deflated almost instantly.
“That’s not an easy story to tell.” Miroku said after a moment. He sighed and rubbed his neck nervously before glancing up at her curiously. “Am I correct in assuming your father was Katsuo Higurashi?” Kagome nodded looking thoroughly confused.
“Touga Taisho worked alongside your father in order to protect your uncle. He was a powerful demon, just as your father was a powerful spiritualist, unfortunately that did not make them bullet proof.”
“I remember now! Touga used to come around my house all the time. He would sneak me chocolate bars and junk when my parents weren’t looking.” She laughed, “I don’t ever remember meeting Sesshomaru and Inuyasha though.”
“Ah,” He said smiling wistfully, “You wouldn’t have. Touga had sent them away for some training at the time, which is how I met them. It’s a small camp a few hours flight from here that teaches young demons and humans with reiki how to hone their powers while teaching them the art of combat and stealth.”
“You guys went to ninja school?!” Kagome exclaimed looking ecstatic. Miroku smiled and rolled his eyes.
“No, not ninja school, more like bodyguard school. They were teaching us so that we could be like what your father and Touga were; protectors of the law.” Kagome nodded thought fully before looking back at him confused.
“But my dad died trying to protect my uncle from assassins…Sesshomaru said that his father was murdered. It doesn’t make any sense.”
“Touga and Katsuo were close friends, Kagome. Too close for your uncle’s liking.”
“Wh-what are you trying to say?” Kagome trembled shutting her eyes tightly. Please, oh please, don’t let him say what I think he’s gonna say. Kagome plead to any god that might be listening.
“ Hideki didn’t like the fact that he was forced to rely on youkai for protection. He especially didn’t like the fact that his own brother would willingly call one a friend. He tried to convince Katsuo that Touga was just using him and would tear him to pieces first chance he got. When that didn’t work he saw it as a betrayal of his trust and a blemish on the family image. He decided that the only way to fix it was to have them both killed. That day in the city was no accident Kagome.” He said taking her hand when he noticed the tears streaming down her face. “I know this for a fact because… Your uncle tried to hire me to kill them. I refused of course” He assured quickly when Kagome tried to pull her hand back.
“I immediately told Sesshomaru what happened between your uncle and I. Together we called Touga and warned him but her didn’t listen. We decided to head home and force them to listen but by the time we got there we were too late. The paramedics were already carrying away their bodies.”
