The Crescent Cafe
It had been a couple of hours since Mrs. Wantanabe walked into the cafe. In that time Inuyasha had continued to surprise her. In the first half hour, Inuyasha had not only a rough outline of at least 5 different entrees to choose from. She had ideas for several salads and multi hors d'oeurves table, to several meat and fish recipes for the main course, and a list of delectable pastries and petit fours. Inuyasha even proposed a sperate table for a champagne toast for the happiness of the future couple. After a lot of brain storming, the two women finally settled on a solid menu that consisted of a cocktails and hors d' oeuvre meet and greet hour. Than a sit down 6 course dinner, with 2 different kinds of soups and salads, followed by a meat entree, a fish entree, and a pasta entree. Then they decided to follow that with a dessert and sorbet, and finally end with a three tier cake to go with the champagne. All in all it had been a very productive couple of hours. The ladies had even settled on a price, which Mrs. Wantanabe thought was totally outrageous. Inuyasha had not only come to her aid and planned a fabulous menu, but she was at least $700 dollars cheaper than the previous caterer.
"Now are you sure you can deliver all that in such a short amount of time? And, for such a price? My dear, I feel like I'm taking advantage of you," asked the older woman.
"Keh. Don't you worry about a thing ma'am," Yasha beamed proudly. "My crew and I do a kick ass job, especially when under pressure! Rest assured, when Inuyasha and crew are here you can put away all you fear!" Yasha smiled. "Now are you sure that your daughter and her fiancee will be all right with what I have here? Maybe, I should met with them?"
Mrs. Wantanabe humphed and said "My daughter and Miroku are to busy trying to clear their calendars, so they can enjoy a nice long honeymoon. They are both lawyers you see, and they work for my husband's firm." She leans over the table and whispers to Yasha, "If you ask me, I think they're just trying to scratch out more time to fool around! ha-ha!" She winked as Inuyasha laughed. After a few more minutes, Yasha felt a light tapping on her shoulder. She and Mrs. Wantanabe looked up to find the ever silent Juromaru standing behind them.
"What's up Juro?"
He just nodded and pointed to the wall clock. It was already quarter of one "Oh! Thanks Juro, the time just got away from me." Turning to the slightly confused woman, she explained. "I'm sorry Mrs. Wantanabe, but I have to be rushing off now. You see, today is the 15 year anniversary of my mother's passing. So, my family and I are having a memorial service for her today."
"Oh, I didn't mean to keep you, from something as important as that, my dear," she smiled and patted Yasha's hand. "I will leave everything in you very capable hands! I'm sure it will be prefect, just prefect!" She stand and prepares to leave. Inuyasha stops her than she goes behind the counter.
Placing several pasties and cookies in a medium size white box, she ties it closed with a single red ribbon. Yasha then returns to the woman and hands the box to her. "Just a little something for the road!" She smiles as the grand dame takes the box. When she reaches for her purse, Yasha stops her. "It's on the house! A little thank you from the Crescent crew for you faith and business! Rest assured, Ma'am. You can worry about everything, but the food. We got this!"
"Thank you, my dear. I will. Oh and it's Aunt Tokio to you, Yasha. I won't answer to anything else form you, do you hear?"
"Yes, ma- I mean, Aunt Tokio."
With a smile and a bow Tokio Wantanabe took her leave.
Watching from the large serve out window connecting the kitchen to the dining area; Ban, Ren and Kisa stood watching most of the exchange. "Hey, Yasha, do you think we can really pull this off in only a couple of days?" Asked Renkostu, "I mean even with Ban, Juro, you and me working it's still a big job."
"Yeah, Yash, I think you may have bitten off more that even you can chew," Bankostu pondered.
"Your only saying that, to get out of helping so you can go on your date Saturday night with that Sakura, tramp" sneered Kisa.
"THAT'S GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS AND IS NONE OF YOUR DAMN BUSINESS, KISA!" Yelled Ban. "I'm only concerned about the time and quality of service," turning back to Yasha. "You know you can count on me, Yash. I just don't want to see you push yourself to hard. You know how you get."
"You guys, I know what I'm doing so don't worry. With a bunch like this how can I fail?" She laughed, "now Juro is everything ready to go?" The pinkish haired muscular hunk grinned and nodded. "Good job, my man! Now I just need to go throu a few things and we can go." Yasha walked back into the storeroom to add a special list of the items for her new project. The crew also went back to work.
Downtown~ at the same time
Sesshomaru gives up all pretense of working. His mind is reeling and his can't seem to concentrate on anything. 'This is just an exercise in futility' he sighed, 'It's clear I'm not getting anywhere.' He turns off his laptop and picks up the receiver on his phone, after a second he hears the voice of his secretary, Yura.
"Yes, Mr. Takeuchi?"
"Yura, I'm going home for the day. Push all my appointments for next week back until after my cousins wedding. If there is something that must be handled immediately, you may reach me at home. Other than that, I'm not to be disturbed. Is that clear?"
"Yes, sir. It will be as you say. Have a good day!"
Sesshomaru humphed and hung up on her. He packed up his briefcase grabbed his car keys and left. Just when he gets in the elevator and pushes for the first level garage, his cellphone rings. Checking the caller ID, he smirks and rolls his eyes. "What do you want?", he says in a monotone voice.
"Well, hello to you to Mr. Sunny Day!" She replies in an equally dry tone. "Here I am, trying to brighten your life by sharing some of my happiness with my favorite cousin, and what do I get? 'What do you want?' Boy, Sessho you really know how to liven the mood!"
He smirked into the phone, "Your favorite cousin, huh? Since when?"
"Since you officially said good riddance to some extremely bad and smelly rubbish! But, seriously Sessho, how are you doing? Do you need me to do anything for you? I could arrange for her to have a very bad accident. You know, broken bone here and severed limb there?" At this, he finally laughs. "So, you do remember how to laugh. I thought you had forgotten."
"What can I do for you Sango? This isn't just a social call, is it?"
"I just called to say I lo~ve you!"
"Have you been drinking, or has the sexual tension between you and Miroku finally gotten to you?" He gave a mock sigh in dismay, "That's what you get when you decided to settle down with a known pervert." He says as he exits the elevator and walks to his vintage '69 black and silver chrome Ford Mustang. "What's going on? Is he chasing you around the desk trying to grab your ass? Or, is he in a corner, nursing his jaw; trying to find his missing teeth?"
The sound of her full throated laugh vibrate through the phone. "I know, I know, you DID warn me didn't you. Unfortunately, your warnings came to late!" She sobers, "but, seriously, how are you? Really?"
Getting into his vintage car and exiting his parking space, "Thanks, but I am perfectly fine, and I am currently on my way home."
"Home? Did I hear you right? In the middle of the afternoon Mr. Workaholic is going home? I'm sorry I seem to have dialed the wrong number. I was looking for Sesshomaru Takeuchi. You might have heard of him. Tall, long white hair, gold eyes, hard ass with a heart of stone? That guy."
"Humph! Tell me what you want or I'm hanging up, now."
"I'm just making sure you're up to the party on Sunday. I don't want to make you feel uncomfortable. I have to warn you that mom has pulled out all the stops on this one. She has all of Miroku, daddy, and my high power clients and associates, as well as some of the countries power brokers. And, a bunch of single women." She whispered.
"And what? I didn't catch that."
*Sigh* "A bunch of single women."
'Oh, SHIT!!!!' Groans.
"I know, I'm sorry, Sessho! I tried to stop her, but you know mother. She's bound and determined to find you a more 'suitable' woman. Since you are the heir apparent!"
"Well, thanks for the heads up, Sango, I'll be on the look out."
"This is not an excuse for you not to show up on Sunday, so don't let that idea take root in your brain. I thoroughly expect for you to support Miro and me." She demanded, "We will need someone to talk to and poke fun at" She laughs at the grunt of disgust, "Oh come on Sessho, you now that's ALL your really good for anyway. If it wasn't for you I would have died of boredom growing up!"
"I'm so happy my discord brings you such enjoyment." He smirks, as he shifts into 3rd gear on the highway on ramp heading towards his home. "And, do not burst a vein in that pretty little head of yours, San, I have given my word to be there and I will. After all, someone has to protect Miro from you're fits of rage whenever he does something you deem inappropriate. Like when his hand accidentally wanders south."
"Ha-Ha! Be that as it may, I'm still happy that you'll be there. And, bring Rin with you."
"Bring Rin? To an engagement party? Why would I want to expose my child to such a pitiful spectacle?"
"Because, she's my flower girl, and I haven't seen her sweet little face in a while. I miss her!"
"You could have visited her, you know." He answered drily.
"And, come face to face with that hideous thing that roped you into marriage? I don't think so! Now, that she's gone, I can see Rin without biting a hole in my damn tongue to stop the insults from flying!"
It's was Sesshomaru's turn to laugh, as he remembered all the sparring matches between Miro and he had to break up. The last one was on Rin's third birthday. Sango and Miroku had come over to the house with a present for Rin. It was a mini carousel music box that played the most beautiful waltz. Rin had loved it and she showed it to her parents and grandfather Touga. Sesshomaru and his father smiled at the expression of joy and wonder on her face, as the tyke kept rewinding her gift over and over. Suddenly, all laughter in the girl had gone when she played it for her mother. "What? You mean you actually spent good money on this piece of trash? Rin dear, stop playing that thing! It's giving me a headache." Sango was so angry that it took both Touga and Miroku to restrain her. Sango vowed never to set foot in that house until that 'BITCH' was gone or dead.
"Well, you don't have to worry about her, Sango, she gone for good," he reassures her. "And, I make sure my little lady is present. She's actually quite excited to be in the wedding. I, thank you for including her, it means a lot."
"Oh my gosh! Now I know I have the wrong number!" She laughs. "It's my pleasure I gotta go, see you Sunday. Bye!"
"Bye." He closes his phone and checks the clock on the dashboard. 12:35 PM. In another 30 minutes he'll be home. 'I wonder if dad is home from his trip yet? Nah, he would have called me. Mental note: Call dad and tell him about the divorce and find out when he's coming back.' While driving home, Sesshomaru makes his plans for a new life with his daughter, and a plan to find the missing piece of his life. 'I'll put my best people on it. I have to find her! I have to know how she is. I have to find out if she was real or only an image in my mind! No, she wasn't an image! My Rose hime is real! You have to be real, my InuYasha.'
Back at the Crescent Cafe
The doorbell chimes once again. At the sound of the soft chime, Mai turns from her task of filling the napkin holders, to greet what would have to be the most handsome man she's ever seen. He has short black hair which was combed back from his strong angular face. His eyes where the deepest, darkest black she'd ever seen. He wore one diamond stud in his left ear, and his very muscular frame was encased in a very expensive tailor made blue suit. To Mai, he looked like a model or an actor. 'Oh my, he's so handsome!' "I - uh-" she stammered as she drops the napkins on the counter and floor. The man smiles at her reaction towards him, as he watches her trying to pick up the napkins and regain her composure. *AHEM* She takes a deep breath and smiles nervously "Welcome to the Crescent Cafe! My name is Mai, how may I serve-ah-help you?"
Her pulse quickens as a low sexy tone answers her. "Yes, I think you can help me. Mai was it?" She nods. "Well, Mai, I would love one of those tasty looking fish pastries behind you, and a cup of your best tea, if that's not to much trouble?" He winks at her than flashes a dazzling smile.
Flushed, she turns to fill his order. She returns and hands it to him, "Um, wi- will there b- be anything else, sir?"
"As a matter of fact there is one more thing, Mai." He grins at the blushing girl. "If you would be a sweetheart and tell Inuyasha that Heero Takamoto is here to see her, I would be forever in your debt."
Mai's shoulders drooped slightly 'Darn! He's looking for Inuyasha, I should have known.' "Heero Takamoto?"
"That's right, but you can call me Heero, gorgeous. I'm an old friend of hers."
She giggled 'An old friend of Yasha's? Did he just call me gorgeous? Me?!? He called me gorgeous!' Then she realized she'd been keeping him waiting, 'Oh no, he must think I a total spaz!' "Yes, I get her right away! Don't go anywhere, I'll be right back!" Turning, Mai propels herself towards the door, only to be knocked back by Kisa.
"Hey girl, where the fire? You keep running around like that you'll hurt someone or yourself!" Scolded Kisa.
"I'm sorry, Kis," Mai apologized, "but, Yasha has a visitor." She point back to the man at the counter. Kisa looks over to see who it is and gasps in horror!
"What the hell are YOU doing here, you BASTARD?!? Get out, NOW!" She yelled, frightening Mai, 'Oh man, who is he and why does Kisa seem to hate him?'
The well dressed man smirks at the girl's look of outrage, and in a deceptively calm voice says "Well, well, well, if it isn't little Kisa, still watch dogging I see. I not here to banter with you, unfortunately, I here to see my beloved. Now, be a good girl and go get her."
Hearing Kisa yell, Renkostu comes out from the back and is followed by Ban. Seeing the cause of his girl's distress; he then pulls both Kisa and Mai behind him and his brother. "Takamoto!" He sneered, "Just what the fuck do you want, you piece of shit?"
"It doesn't matter what he wants, Ren," said an angry Bankostu. "What matters is that he's leaving! Isn't that right, you maggot?"
"Humph! So, my little one is still surrounded by the ragtag riff- raff of her childhood, I see. Anyway, like I said, I am here to see MY Inuyasha. Now you will get her for me OR I will get her, either way, I will see MY WOMAN!!!" The harsh sound of his voice caused Mai to cringe. Gone was the handsome man she had first seen, he was replaced by this cold angry monster. She hid behind Mai. 'Oh man, even Ban and Ren hate him. Just who is he?', Mai wondered.
Yasha, hearing all the noise was curious as to what was happening outside. 'Now, what are those dummies up to?' She walked out to find world war III. "What is going on-" she stopped short. Yasha stood frozen, she couldn't believe her eyes. 'Oh no, no, no! What was he doing here?!?!' Yasha's whole world seemed to stop. "Heero Takamoto." She whispered.
A large smile broke out over his face "Inuyasha, my beautiful Inu, it's been so very long. I know I haven't been intouch with you, but I hope you can understand the pressure I was under. I have been working hard for our future, baby. My father has finally seen what an asset I am to my family's company. He has made me his vice president, and I have been working round the clock. I stand here before you to hear your answer to the question I asked you." He starts towards her, only to be blocked by Ban and Ren. Sighing, he smiles and focus' on her, "Yasha, will you marry me?"
"Marry you? Marry YOU?!? How DARE you come here! How Dare you show your repulsive face to me after what you did to me! I told you I never wanted to see you ever again! Get out of here Heero! Get out before I call the police!"
His face tightens, but his smile stays in place. "You know you don't mean that, my love."
"Feh! Don't you 'my love' me, you bastard." She yelled.
"Watch your mouth, my dear. I will not have my woman cursing like a sailor. Well, I guess that is something I will have to work on."
"You won't be working on anything creep," said Kisa. "She find the way she is! Now you heard her, GET OUT YOU BUM!"
Turning to Kisa, he sneered "Keep your mouth shut, you little bitch." As he stepped closer to Inu, but before he could get any closer, he is pushed back. Angry, he looked over to the person who dared to touch him, and came face to face with an overprotective Juromaru. "Well, if it isn't the dummy! Hello Juromaru, looking as big and as stupid as ever, I see." He smirked.
Juromaru took his place before Yasha, with his arms folded across his chest. He'd be damned if he'd let this asshole anywhere near Yasha. He was set and ready for battle to protect his friend and sister. When the door opened again. "Well, what do we have here?" asked the new voice behind them. In the doorway stood a tall dark man, his long wavy black hair swept up in a high ponytail. He was dress in a two piece suit and his dark eyes where covered behind shades. "Well, my wife asked me to come over to see if you needed any help bring your stuff to the shrine, Yasha. And, what do I find?" The man smiles as he removes his shades. "Yasha, since when have you started catering to common trash."
Inuyasha and her friends breathed a sigh of relief, 'God bless you and your insight, Kagome.' "Naraku!" Yes, It was Naraku Mitsuo. Detective Naraku Mitsuo, of the Tokyo Metro Police force. Not to mention, Kagome's handsome husband! "Hello, Heero, it's been awhile hasn't it? I would have thought you had the good sense to heed my warnings, and stay away from my wife's cousin. I thought we had an understanding after our last decision, before you're father had you shipped overseas."
"Yes, well, as you can see I'm back now officer-"
"Detective."
"Oh, forgive me, Detective. I was just letting my Yasha know I have comeback to her." He checks his watch, "Well, would you just look at the time? Inuyasha, my darling I'm afraid I have to be rushing off now. My parents are expecting me." Smiling he steps towards her, only to have Juro, Ban and Ren close ranks infront of her. His face contorts in annoyance, but than he regains his composes and smiles. "I'll be back again soon, my darling."
"Do me a favor, Heero."
"What is that?"
"Go straight to hell!" She smiles sweetly at the rage in his face.
Naraku steps to him, and places a hand on his shoulder. "The exit is this way. Don't let the door hit you where Kami split you!"
The gang snickers as Heero shrugs off his hand, puts his sunglasses back on and leaves. Slamming the door behind him. "Oh god, Naraku. Thank you for showing up when you did!" Said Kisa, "It was about to get U. G. L. Y. up in here!"
"Thank Kagome, she was the one who called me." He walked up to Juro and Yasha. "Hey Juro, you did good big guy!"
"Uh-huh!"
"Are you okay, Yasha? That idiot didn't step out of line did he?"
"Nah, It was nothing that the greatest defense force in Japan to protect me." Laughed Yasha as she slapped Ban and Ren on the back.
"Yes, well be that as it may, I'm here to help you so let's get going, shall we?" Naraku smiled.
With that Yasha goes in the back with Naraku, Juro, Ban and Ren following her. After an hour she and Juro where driving off with a car full of food and offerings for Yasha's mother's service. With Naraku following behind them. Juromaru reaches over and gives her a gentle squeeze on the shoulder. She smiles, "I'm all right, Juro. I'm all right!"
TBC
I hope you liked this latest installment. I tried to make it as interesting as possible, I hope I have.
I had put a little twist in it. I had the Idea of making Naraku in to a good guy. I decided to take him out of character. I always thought that Naraku was kind of handsome. Just as handsome as Sesshomaru. If he wasn't so evil he could be considered a hottie. And, he kind of looks like my husband. It's the long hair and the smooth voice. Ahhhh, what a man! My hubby, not Naraku! Anyway, read and review and be on the lookout for chapter 7!
PS:
I dedicate this chapter to my new little sista, Fluffymiyster! Whose stories kept me in stitches! Girl you so crazy! And to LadyIvy. I'm still waiting for the next chapters to 50 years and Moonlit Sun! And to everyone who has read my drivel! I love you all! ~ B reading U!
