“
Look if you damn well know my name, I demand you use it. Isn’t it
against like robot ‘law’ to call your owner names?” Inuyasha huffed as he
crossed his arms over his chest, curiously staring at the back of the robot
his brother just so generously ‘donated’ to him. ‘ Bomb? No. Spy? Possibly.
Cute? Looks like a blond Kagome with longer hair…shit.’ He couldn’t help
but shift his weight slightly in the chair. He had always liked the cuteness
of Kagome’s sprite, but other than the blond hair, she looked exactly
like the sprite. ‘ I prefer her black hair…’ He grumbled and put a quick
end to that line of thoughts.
‘ Never
thought I’d get to see a life size version of her. He’s got a sick twisted
mind. Kagome’s sprite was mine… not his to duplicate and screw around with at
his own damn will.’ Scowling, Inuyasha continued to stare at the robot that
hadn’t moved at all. Maybe she was broken, stalled up or something. ‘ Well
studying is now shot to hell.’ Shoving his books back into his bag, Inuyasha
hefted them up onto his shoulder as he stomped out of the room. He only stopped
to look back at the personal companion that refused to look at him. The
long bangs of her hair hid her eyes from his view.
“
Well are you fucking coming or not? I’ve got a fairly large bone to pick with
you Ka-go-me.” The tiny gasp that he would have missed were it not for
his demon hearing confirmed exactly what he suspected. ‘But that
doesn’t mean… fuck I was so not in the mood for conversation today.’
Yup he knew exactly where this was going. He was going to have to question the
fuck out of this replica and see just how fucked up his brother was.
Considering his past, it was going to be fairly fucked up. ‘ He
really wouldn’t make a copy of her personality to…’ He had to put an end to
thoughts again, not even willing to go down that path—a copy of Kagome?
No that was just plain fucking wrong.
“
Why do I just get this feeling I’m going to regret this master?” Damnit
she still hadn’t fixed it yet. ‘ No way in hell am I going to sit
here and inflate that damn ego of his. Especially if he knows it’s me.
Dear god he’ll never let me live it down.’ Scurrying around the table, she
reached down to fetch the sword before following after the still rather annoyed
looking hanyou. She narrowed her gaze a little as he snorted at her and headed
up the stairs towards his room. ‘ Jackass.’
~-*-~
“
Kouga I take it you have it?” Kikyou leaned over the wall of his cubical as he
typed furiously on the computer. For a moment she thought he might have failed
to hear her, and was preparing a slur about his superior demonic
‘hearing’ when his right hand suddenly shot away from the keyboard and shifted
through the papers while his eyes never once left the screen he was staring at.
“
Sesshoumaru confirmed it. Your precious mutt-face screwed up and
uploaded the CD. Naraku tracked her, nearly killed her using some virus
programming by the code name ‘Hakudoushi’.” Finally looking away from the
screen, he found the papers he was looking for and handed them up to her. While
Kikyou did a quick scan over the papers, Kouga went back to typing. “
Sesshoumaru was able to intercept her and get her into an individual unit, but
it’ll only be a matter of time before Naraku finds that out too.”
“
Still haven’t caught their own little spy huh?” Kikyou mumbled, most of her
attention focused on the paperwork Sesshoumaru had sent to her. At least the
unit would be able to handle the program a whole lot better than Inuyasha’s
computer. Sighing softly, Kikyou rubbed her temples as she dropped the papers
back onto Kouga’s desk. The stress was really starting to pile up, and
somewhere in the back of her mind the moral part of her started to question if
she was doing the right thing.
“ I
take it Inuyasha still hasn’t contacted you.” Kikyou let out an almost rude
snort as she crossed her arms over her chest.
“
You could say that. My caller ID says he’s called about ten or so times, but
never left a message or even left me enough time to pick up the damn
phone. He’s hiding something, far more than just this. He’s never had a problem
talking to me… even when he’s done something that has to do with wronging me.”
Kikyou shifted her gaze back to Kouga, who had stopped typing and was staring
up at her almost as though he was trying to read her thoughts.
“
You don’t think he’s getting attached to your little program do you?”
Okay maybe Kouga could read her mind. Frowning ever so slightly, she
didn’t fail to notice the actual implication of what the statement was
actually saying. ‘ Inuyasha’s loyal to me, even if we aren’t dating anymore.
We love each other.’ Somewhere in the back of her mind though, she could
feel the wonder and doubt starting to plague her. ‘ Stupid wolf.’
“
Don’t worry about it too much. I’ll have Ayame see if she can crack into
Naraku’s database again.” Kouga’s reassurance wasn’t quite what she expected it
to be—but then again she never really expected it at all. Kouga seemed
to be jealous over Inuyasha for a while now. Whether it was over her, or her program
though… ‘ Idiot.’
“
So Ayame is up and running again?” Kouga nodded, reaching into a drawer of the
desk and pulled out a small envelope.
“
This should be enough to cover her cost. That hacking program worked real well,
though we didn’t have a lot of time to really check it out. Along with the
money are all the stats she could pick up on this ‘Hakudoushi’. Also there’s a
report in there about Entei.” Kikyou snatched the envelope from him, frowning
slightly.
“
How’d you know about Entei?” Kouga blinked before grinning, giving a slight
shrug.
“
Benefits for working with the enemy.”
~-*-~
“ Dear god shut up!”
“ You stupid dog you shut up!”
“ You can’t call me that or—or tell me what to fucking do
for that matter!”
“ Says who!? And STOP cursing at me!”
“ Me that’s fucking who! And what did I just
say!?”
“ Baka!”
“ Bitch!”
“ Inuyasha!”
“ OW!” Apparently any happy and warm
feelings the two had upon meeting each other had exploded… into a full out
fight as usual. Except this time, Kagome could physically fight back now, and
she apparently intended to. Inuyasha yelped as Kagome latched onto the nearest
ear and refused to let go. Inuyasha refused to damage her,
and left him with very little choice but to let her drag him over to the bed,
practically throwing him off balance to land on the bed by his ear.
“ What the fuck was that for!?” He snarled and sat
up as she released his ear, letting her hands rest on her hips as she glared
down at him. Man he was starting to wonder what kind of karma was biting him in
the ass with this shit. Her glare darkened and she growled and started to reach
for his ear again. Snarling at her once again, Inuyasha backed up on the bed
until his back hit the wall, baring his teeth at her.
“ I swear if you don’t stop swearing
at me, one of those ears are coming off.” Kagome clipped
out her words, clenching her fists on her hips. Somehow in her current mood, he
didn’t doubt that she would make due on her word. Said ears suddenly
flattened so far to his skull they actually hurt. Kagome reveled in the fact
that she could now fight back with Inuyasha with more than just
words—even if that’s all they still were. His ears were probably the only
things she wouldn’t ever try and remove from his body. She didn’t have the guts
to threaten anything else though.
“ Well you are the personal companion that now
belongs to me. If I’m going to let you fucking stay here, you can’t
threaten me! Much less yell at me!” Kagome snorted and tugged at the
thin spaghetti straps of her dress before she flopped down onto his bed,
putting her back to his headboard and pulled her knees to her chest. Inuyasha
watched her warily, almost afraid to open his mouth now that she hadn’t
replied with anything. ‘ You don’t think she’s actually… serious do
you?’ His ears twitched unconsciously and he watched her eyes draw up from
simply gazing at him, to gazing at his ears—then she smiled and giggled.
“ What are you laughing about wench?” She covered her
mouth with one hand, shaking her head vigorously. At least Inuyasha had no
doubts about who she was now. It took the entire walk up the
stairs for him to realize Sesshoumaru hadn’t even had enough time with
Kagome to replicate her personality. While he was sure there were other
ways to get that information… somehow he just knew it. This was his
Kagome. She radiated the same brightness with him that she had when she still
‘lived’ in his computer tower. For some reason he knew she was laughing at him,
but it didn’t stop the slight smile that started to tug at the ends of his lips.
“ Your ears… I knew you were hanyou and I knew you
had dog ears but…” She leaned forward a little to let her chin rest on her
knees. At least her laughing had subsided, but the smile she had hadn’t left
her face. “ I imagined them but I didn’t realize I was…” She trailed off, an
odd look crossing her face before she shook her head and smiled at him again.
His curiosity wanted to know how she originally imagined what he might have
looked like, but questions that had been put off for the sake of arguing with
her sprang from his mouth first.
“ Kagome… what happened?” Inuyasha’s serious tone took a
noticeable turn in her mood. She shifted uncomfortably and she looked away from
him to stare at the bedspread. ‘ Where to start… am I even allowed to say?
Sesshoumaru only said I couldn’t tell him who I was and he… already knows
that.’ Kagome sighed and closed her eyes, almost going completely limp
trying to wonder where to start. For once Inuyasha seemed patient enough to let
her think, she’d have to ask later on if he was feeling all right.
“ Truthfully… I don’t know really where to start.” Oh she
had an idea of where it started actually. Being so distracted and upset by the
fact that Inuyasha thought of her as nothing more than data… she had been so
depressed she hadn’t even noticed Hakudoushi slipping into the computer.
Somehow though, she couldn’t bring herself to tell him that he had hurt her.
Part of her reasoned it was because he did think of her as a thing…
after all he kept saying she was a personal companion and now belonged
to him. She could feel old depression rushing up in the middle of her and she
did her best to ignore the familiar ache.
“ Start at the fucking beginning of course!” Ah, so his
patience did only go so far. She forced down a laugh that threatened to escape
her and she smiled weakly, shaking her head a little. ‘ It’s not fair… how
easily he can toy with my emotions.’ And for the first time she actually
wondered about that… why did he have such an easy time screwing with her
emotions—even if he didn’t know it? ‘ Like I don’t have enough to worry
about.’
“ I don’t know. Maybe when I was distracted by
Sesshoumaru when he came to visit you…” A little white lie never hurt anyone
right? “ Some virus AI program slipped into your computer through the Internet.
I thought your computer just couldn’t handle me anymore, that’s why I was
feeling sick.” Again… it didn’t really hurt him if he didn’t know, she wouldn’t
place guilt on him. “ I only realized someone was in the computer with me right
before it crashed.”
“ I don’t get it…” She refrained from rolling her eyes.
This was the part she didn’t really want to tell him. After all if she stayed
here with him, when they finally found her he would be in danger because
of her. Dragged into a problem he didn’t deserve to be forced into. Kagome
winced inwardly and sighed, letting her forehead drop to her knees, feeling her
hair pool around her on both sides. She was very glad for his hearing at that
moment, not being able to look him in the face without feeling guilt or pain.
“ Someone is… after me. I don’t know why or for what
but they want me. Hakudoushi was the name of the AI… he tried to kill me.
Sliced up my coding pretty badly. I was barely able to make it out through the
Internet line myself before the computer crashed. I just remember…” ‘ Best
not tell him it hurt…’ “ I don’t really remember much after that. I woke up
inside this body.” Kagome winced at the growl Inuyasha released.
“ So my brother somehow found you. Fuck I don’t even want
to know how he did that.” For a moment, Inuyasha could feel doubt boil
back up inside of him. If she was injured so badly and Sesshoumaru found her…
maybe it wasn’t impossible for him to make a replica. Maybe his Kagome…
died. A small whine escaped the back of his throat, ears pressed flat to his
head once again. “ Are you… even the Kagome I knew? Or are you a copy?”
He suddenly knew that was the wrong thing to say to her,
hell, he hadn’t even meant to say it out loud. She stiffened sharply, but
didn’t move to lift her face from her knees. Kagome couldn’t help but wonder
why the question felt legitimate. After all she really couldn’t remember
what happened once she had made it into the Internet. ‘ My fucking god do I
have nothing better to do than feel like this? Depressed, upset, and why in the
bloody seven hells does it bother me so much when he thinks I’m not
real. That I’m not me.’ Man she had already gone over all of
this. She wasn’t real, and because of that… did it really matter if she
was just a copy of herself?
Kagome’s body suddenly went limp again and Inuyasha bit
his bottom lip so hard it bled. She reminded him of the sprite that sat on his
computer for the last few days before she disappeared from his life. Miserable
and upset… it took him a moment to realize what he had just actually said
that was bothering her. He didn’t know to fix it with comforting words… he was
never good at that shit, but he could…
“ Did it hurt?” Kagome blinked and lifted her head a
little to look at him. He was staring at her with an intensity that made her
want to squirm. She couldn’t quite decipher the emotions that were expressed in
the gold eyes she had grown to love so quickly. Blinking again, she twitched
her nose and looked away from him, back at the bed, but didn’t hide her face
again. She couldn’t lie to him straight out when he asked her so directly…
“ Yes.” Inuyasha nodded as though in thought. He crossed
his arms over his chest and gave a sharp snort that dared her to challenge his
next statement.
“ Then you’re my Kagome alright.” The complete
confidence in his statement made her shiver.
“ How do you figure that?”
“ Because if you were a copy, it wouldn’t have hurt. You
would have remembered it, but it wouldn’t have hurt.” He gave
another nod and glared at the wall across from him. Kagome blinked before
tilting her head. When she had woken up in this ‘body’, she remembered her
coding was still torn and nearly ripped to shreds… it had hurt. For some
reason that made her feel all the more better, the simple fact he believed it
was her—and called her his.
Smiling softly, Kagome shifted herself until she was
sitting next to him against the wall. Inuyasha made no move to put distance
between them, so she let her head fall onto his shoulder. Kagome didn’t keep
track of how long they sat there like that, simply enjoying the silence of each
other’s company once again.
“ So… we don’t know who the fuck is coming after
you. Why my bastard brother saved you. What Kikyou was thinking
when she sent the disk to me… I hate being stuck in the middle without any
information. We really gotta do something about this shit.” Kagome blinked and
looked up at him without really moving her head from his shoulder.
“ We?” She inwardly groaned, remembering how she was
dragging him down into these problems over hers.
“ Yes we! I couldn’t do anything to help you before. You
nearly died…” His voice trailed off quietly, and his ears drooped.
Finally giving into her urge, she reached up with one hand and let it fall onto
his ear. He stiffened under the contact, but didn’t shove her hand away. She
massaged the adorable appendage as Inuyasha let out a deep breath. “ I’m not
going to let it happen again. I promise I’ll protect you Kagome.”
“ I’m sorry… I don’t mean to drag you into my problems.”
Kagome let her hand drop back down to her side, pushing herself up so she was
no longer leaning on his shoulder. Inuyasha grunted and shook his head.
“ You didn’t. If anything, Kikyou started this whole
thing. But regardless of who started what—we’ve already stuck it out together
this long. I’m not backing down now.” He glanced at her out of the
corner of his eye. Kagome leaned her head back against the wall, eyes closed
with a small smile across her lips. She nodded before opening her eyes to look
at him.
“ Whatever you say… dog-boy.”
“ Oi! We are not starting this fucking shit again
wench!”
“ What’d I say about swearing!?”
“ Stay away from my ears you crazy woman!”
