"Baby girl, I need you to go represent me in the next meeting."

"Why me, why not Akil?"

"Because he is doing something very important and you're the only other person I trust."

The young hanyou rolled her Balinese colored (purple-to-blue) eyes at her father. The young woman was beautiful to say the least, she had caramel skin, and long, dark brown hair, stopping at the small of her back. Today, she was dressed in a pink tee shirt and ripped jeans. Deep down, she was happy to represent her father's family at the yearly meeting. The older man in years, not looks, looked down at his youngest child with the same Balinese colored eyes. He had long, cream colored hair with a thick brown streak going down the middle, and a matching tail. It moved from side to side as a breeze blew on the mansion window of the den. The father and daughter only shared each other's eyes and pointed ears, his skin was pale and she had no tail. (That rhymes!)

"Why can't you do it?" staring up at her father intently. All her life she wanted to prove she could run the family after her father retired. Since her oldest brother Akil liked being an assassin, rather than running the family, her two other brothers Kimahri and Shiro were not exactly leader material. Lastly, her sister Inari separated herself from the life of crime... for the most part. So that leaves Akiya. They were all born into the life of crime, no matter how much their human mother tried to shelter them from it, especially when your father is Hideki Nakamura, leader of the Nakamura-gumi.

"Akiya, you always wanted this, so why are you giving me trouble?" Hideki softly asked his daughter, his fluffy tail swishing side while his black pinstripe suit stood still.

"Father, I want to prove I can do this, not be used just because there is no other choice. I want your respect."

"You proved yourself more than worthy of my respect. Now I need you to go to the meeting."

"Really, daddy?" If this was not an important moment over her leadership she would of shed tears of joy. Now Akiya had the confidence to take over the family, hearing her father say that she has his respect.

"Yes. Here, two tickets to New York. Remember, there will be two other families from Japan along with the others. So play dumb, I want them to be surprised when they find out you represent the Nakamura-gumi." her father said with a sly grin, handing her a round trip first class ticket.

"I know, bring a translator for the act, I should be able to speak most of the languages spoken there."

"Good girl, bring Ayame as translator, and Jakotsu and Bankotsu as bodyguards."

"Right, but why I need any bodyguards?" she asked, tilting her head to the side like a confused kitten.

"You never know what might happen. Plus, they're good for show." chuckling, showing his sharp white fangs. For the leader of one of the most feared yakuza families in Japan next to the Taishou's, he was a very kind man, but he can be ruthless when he needs to be.

"I understand father, did you-?"

"Call Ayame, Jak and Bank? Then yes." already answering the question. "Now baby girl, get ready, your flight leaves tomorrow morning. You'll be staying in America for a week. I suggest you visit your cousins since you are going to be in town." walking out of the den into the hall, his tail swishing side to side.

As soon as Hideki left, Akiya scanned the room searching for anyone in hearing or seeing range. When she finished, she jumped on the plush couch like a small child, screaming at the top of her lungs.

"YES, YES, YES!"

"Wow little sister, I thought mother taught us not to jump on the furniture." a female voice said, causing the hanyou to fall off the couch and onto the floor.

"Inari, don't scare me like that!" Akiya huffed, glaring up at her older sister who was failing to hold back laughter.

"Sorry, HA, HA, HA!" holding her round belly.

"Whatever. If you weren't pregnant, I would kick your ass." she grumbled, getting up herself from the floor. The older woman rolled her eyes and crossed her arms over her chest. Inari is a full demon like her brothers. She and Akiya looked alike except her eyes were turquoise, her hair was shorter, her face was rounder and she was about thirty pounds heavier without the kitten she was carrying. All five of the Nakamura children looked different from the next but there were small resemblances that you can find in each.

"Auntie Ki!" a small hanyou squealed running into the den, jumping into her arms. The cat ears perched atop her head twitching against her neck.

"Hey squirt." pulling the child into a tight embrace.

"Aunt Ki, I missed you !" looking up at her aunt with big, turquoise eyes just like her mother's. People who saw Chi-Chi always said she looked like Inari with a dark tan and cat ears.

"Chi-Chi, I just saw you last week." gently tugging on her ears.

"So?" she huffed pouting her lips and crossing her arms.

"Touchy, aren't we?" putting the five year old down, Chi-Chi rolled her eyes in response.

"Chi-Chi, can you leave me and your auntie alone for a minute? We have grown up talk." the youkai turned to her child.

"Sure mommy, bye auntie." waving goodbye running out the door.

"Dad told me you'd be representing the family at the meeting. Ki, are you sure about this?" staring at her youngest sibling with worry.

"I am, who else can." it was more than a statement than a question.

"Alright Ki, I wish you the best, be careful." pulling the hanyou into a tight hug.

"I will. Tell Michael I said hi."

"Sure thing." letting go of her little sister, walking out of the den.


"Inuyasha, you, and Sango will accompany me to the meeting tomorrow. Be prepared, and I hope you at least know English." Seshomaru flatly said, leaning on his mahogany desk, eying his younger brother.

"Well no shit, Sherlock." rolling his eyes at his older half brother. Both brothers looked alike except Inuyasha had doggy ears, no markings and boyish features, unlike Sesshomaru, who had markings on his face and wrists and had more defined features.

"Watch your tongue, half breed. You should be honored that you get to be my bodyguard at this important meeting." he shot back at the hanyou sitting across from him, dressed in a burgundy tailored suit. The leader of the Taishou-gumi was dressed in a slate gray Armani suit, leaning back in his big leather chair.

"Whatever."

"Now back to what I was saying. The Nakamura's and Seiichi families will be there too. We are on good terms with them, so don't do anything stupid."

"Fluffy, do you really think I would be that stupid?"

"Yes." causing his brother to turn beet red in anger. "Here's your ticket, we'll be staying New York for a week after the meeting is finished. Don't forget, were staying at the Angora." handing him the plane ticket.

"Keh" taking the ticket and walking out of the office.


The next morning on the airplane...

"Ok guys, you are going to love America, especially you Jak." Akiya chirped, facing her bodyguard across from her in first class.

"Really, why?" tilting his head cutely to the side.

"There's sooo many cute guys. After the meeting were going to The Village so I can show you!"

"The Village?" making him a little intrigued.

"Yep! We'll get drunk, get tattoos and go to a strip club!" giving the group a goofy smile. The "only" male in the group just looked horrified, no way in hell was he going near a male strip club. "Don't worry, I'm only joking about the tattoo part. And about the strip club, it has a female and male side." turning her attention to the other bodyguard.

"Ok!" you could hear him breath a sigh of relief.

"Really Bank, do you think I would let just all us girls have all the fun?" at the same time gesturing the stewardess to come with her clawed finger.

"Yes, how may I help all of you this morning?" the busty bat demon stewardess with blue hair asked, checking out Bankotsu from the corner of her red eyes.

"When is food going to be served?" looking up at the youkai.

"Actually in a few minutes. Since you asked, you can have yours first. We have roast duck, lobster, vegetarian surprise salad and an ice cream sundae for dessert." winking at Bankotsu, checking the star on his forehead and his long black hair. She can obviously smell he was a human, but demon-human relationships are becoming more common these days.

"I'll have the duck!" the wolf demon chirped, her red pigtails bouncing with every move she made. Her emerald eyes were bright and full of life, making her almost child-like, which was odd, since she was a member of the gumi that dealing with extortion, weapon theft, and many other illegal activities. Today she was wearing a casual black skirt suit, the two body guards wore identical black suits. Akiya wore a white pants suit that hugged her curves perfectly, while her hair was bone straight, parted down the middle, and in layers.

"I'll take the lobster." Bankotsu seductively said, eying the stewardess, as if they did not have an important meeting that night. (I'm not sure how long it takes to fly from Japan to N.Y. so work with me)

"Alright, sir." she purred back.

"The salad. I must keep my figure." causing Ayame and Akiya to snicker, covering their mouths. On some days he could pass for a woman with his lithe figure and full red lips. The only giveaway was the blue markings going down under each eye, identifying him as a male tiger demon.

"Whatever, I'll have the lobster." Akiya said, smiling up at the youkai who was busy ogling her bodyguard.

"Hey! What about us!" a voice yelled, turning everyone's attention to the end of the isle.

"Inuyasha, you will pay for embarrassing me." Sesshomaru growled, grabbing his brother's throat. Unknown to him another hanyou was watching him.

'Sesshomaru and Inuyasha Taishou...'

"He's cute!" Jakotsu whispered to Akiya across from him.

"Oh Kami..." shaking her head, trying not to laugh.

"Alright, let go! I just don't see why they get served first!" he managed to choke out, pointing to where Akiya and the others were sitting.

"Does it matter?"

"..." the youkai lifted a perfect eyebrow and let his brother go.

"You're an idiot, Inuyasha." Sango said, nonchalantly smoothing out her navy blue miniskirt suit.

"She's right. If you embarrass this family I will kill you, and I will make it slow and painful." That shut him up. The rest of the flight was quiet, except for Bankotsu and the stewardess, who were constantly flirting with each other.

"Thank you for flying Tokyo Airlines, have a nice day!" the stewardesses said at the door of the plane, waving goodbye to the passengers. Akiya's group were the last to leave.

"Bye, Bank." the stewardess whispered in his ear, sliding her phone number in his jacket pocket.

"Later." giving her a wink as he exited the plane.


Outside the airport...

"Ki, Hideki-sama rented a car, I'm gonna pull it up." walking ahead of the group, leaving them outside. A few minutes later Bankotsu pulled up in a black BMW, tossing everyone's luggage in the trunk while he carefully placed his sword, Banyruu, on top of them.

"We only have one hour which includes driving time till the meeting starts." opening the back seat door for the women, while Jakotsu slid into the passenger's side. Once everyone was inside he drove off, zooming through the N.Y. streets liked he lived there.

"I thought you never been to America before?" the hanyou asked from the back seat.

"There's a digital map in the car."

"Oh... put on some music." leaning back on the plush leather seats.


"Remember, do not embarrass me, Inuyasha." he once again reminded his brother inside the limo, driving to the Neroli Mansion, which was hosting this year's meeting. It was a secluded place in the middle of the big city, heavily guarded and inconspicuous because it was over one hundred years old. At first, the plan was to go straight to the Angora Hotel but there was a problem at the baggage claim so it wasted a precious thirty minutes.

"Don't worry Fluffy, I wont say a word." running his hand through his long silver hair.

"Is that a promise, Inuyasha?" Sango jokingly asked, turning to face him.

"Whatever, bitch." rolling his eyes.
