Marrying the Mafia
By: CloudsLover
Chapter One
Case File 2106
The sound of siren's was a normality in the booming city known as Tokyo and it was a sound that prosecutor Sesshomaru Taisho enjoyed the most "They have been smuggling goods for the past three months; it was just a matter of time that they decided to make a move" he was calm and collected as his second in command ran another red light coming closer to their destination.
"Sir… Ginta is awaiting for your order to move in as we speak" the thrill of the chase was something he would never get used to, because it was different experience every single time "Sir, what are your orders" a small satisfied smile appeared in his handsome face.
"Give them the go ahead" exiting the now parked car he made his way towards the gathered officers "Don't let anyone escape" He shouted as the door to the storage warehouse were now being pushed open "arrest them all" an outcry of understanding was heard as a battle erupted in seconds officers and gangsters a like fighting for dominance.
"I, prosecutor Sesshomaru Taisho of sector 305 here by read you your rights" metal pipes could be heard as they unmistakably hit human bones "You have the right to remain silent… anything you may say can and will be use against you in the court of law" grunts of passed out men now being detained where over looked by his person as he made his way into the crowd "You are here by charged of possession of stolen goods and" he dodged an oncoming attack easily as he continued "illegal trafficking"
"Sir, behind you" Sesshomaru heed the warning as he turned to look up and saw his attacker holding a baseball bat in his hands as he ran towards him with ill intent and yet it caused him to smirk very much amused at the lame attempt.
"Might as well add assault to the list" easily unarming his attacker he tossed him towards his second in command unconscious from the blow that he had effortlessly landed "lock him up with the rest"
"Yes, sir" Sesshomaru looked around to see all of the stolen goods that this particular gang had accumulated in the past three months and sighed since he knew that he had a rather annoying report to write and turn in, which his superiors would be very pleased to read.
"Status report" He asked no one in particular gaining the attention of the one closes to him.
"Twenty captured, and it seemed that some had managed to flee… sir" Sesshomaru nodded but said nothing regarding those that were lucky enough to escape his wrath and quickly began to give out orders.
"I want and inventory list of all goods by tomorrow morning on my desk, understood" he voiced as he made his way back to his car and quickly added "Make sure to add the report of all the men who had been detained"
"Yes sir, Ginta and some fellow officers are on it as we speak" again all he did was nod as he settled himself into the driver's seat "I myself will over look things here and shall have the report ready as ordered"
"Good, keep up the good work… and Sango congratulations on your promotion" his second in command smiled.
"Thank you, sir" Sango watched him drive off and sighed "All right people back to work, we have thirteen hours until dead line so move it" she shouted, she didn't get promoted for being soft "Kami, I love my job" with a happy step to her walk she quickly got to work.
"Grandfather" the voice echoed caring it forward to every inch of the room "They were captured" you could now hear footsteps tapping on the hard wood floor indicating that his grandson was rapidly approaching; seconds later the screen door was opened in a not so gentle fashion.
"Calm… yourself; Souta" a very much tired fourteen year old boy stood before him somewhat out of breath "Who were captured" waiting patiently for his grandson to answer since it seemed to contain an important matter concerning them all.
"The band of seven have fallen" both remained silent as the door to the connecting room slowly slid open "Sis did you hear" soon his older sister walked in wearing their family seal on the left side of her formal kimono.
"Of course I heard… how, can't I with you shouting it to the four winds" she ignored her brothers annoyed stare and turned to face her grandfather before speaking once more "With the band of seven scrambling to stay intact… Naraku might take this opportunity to try and take over their area" his granddaughter showed no emotion but he knew deep down that she was worried at the current situation unfolding before them.
"Yes… I believe he would be capable of such an underhanded thing" The eldest Higurashi frowned in thought "it's a shame seeing that their area is at a close proximity to our own" Naraku wasn't one you would wish for a neighbor since he was a man that embodied the very devil himself.
"What does it matter… we don't have any dealing with any of those gangs; the only one we tend to associate with is the wolf tribe…" Souta said gaining the attention of his sister and grandfather.
"That little brother is the reason why I worry" in the depth of her kimono she took out a scroll "Souta have this deliver to Kouga right away and tell the messenger to wait for his reply" she stood slightly as she bowed to her grandfather and exited the room because she still had much to think about.
"Do as she ordered Souta and then go straight to bed, you have school tomorrow" Souta nodded and did as he was told but not before he voiced
"My Sis is the coolest" causing the eldest Higurashi to chuckle at the admiration his grandson showed his own sister.
"Of course she is, she wouldn't have been named as head of the family if she wasn't equipped to lead" Souta nodded and left to do what had been asked of him, once the screen door was closed he dared himself to speak out loud "Yet I wonder if it had been fair to place such a burden on one so young" he sighed feeling is old age weighing him down for the first time in years; debating if he had done the right thing in naming his only granddaughter as his successor.
The ringing in the right side of his ear had yet to cease, causing him to awake from much needed rest "Who is calling me at this ungodly hour" answering his recently replaced phone "What is it" he growled because he was being denied to sleep-in for the first time in the three months having been too preoccupied with the band of seven investigation.
"There is an unknown service change billed to your credit card…" Sesshomaru had never attempted to kill someone over the phone but he sure liked to learn how.
"Inuyasha…" laughter could now be heard at the other end of the line "How many times do I have to tell you not to call me…"
"I have lost count… but just called to remind you that our father had purposely ordered you to drop me off at school today… remember" Inuyasha took a small pause before saying "don't tell me the great Sesshomaru forgot" his mind had been occupied with more important matters than that of his brother Inuyasha which he inadvertently had pushed out of his mind for he, Sesshomaru Taisho had indeed forgotten.
"Of course I remember…" not that he was going to give his annoying brother the enjoyment of knowing "I'll pick you up in twenty minutes" with that being said he hung up his phone and began to get ready "Guess I'll be at work earlier than planned as well" taking one last look to what moments ago had been a warm bed he sighed as he headed to his master bathroom to start his day off right. Just like he had promised; he was at his brother's apartment in the time limit indicated "Hurry up, moron" Sesshomaru shouted as he watched his brother run towards his car.
"Morning to you to" Inuyasha smiled showing off his pearly whites "So I watched the news last night and lord and behold your face pops up on my TV" Inuyasha chuckled as he couldn't help himself but tease his older brother "Didn't know I was related to such a celebrity"
"I was doing my job nothing more" Sesshomaru stated as he made a left turn "The only celebrity we have in the family is your mom" Inuyasha frowned it wasn't every day that Sesshomaru brought up the woman he hated "Father said he will be visiting you in a few days so if I were you which I'm glad that I'm not, I would clean that dirty apartment of yours"
"Fine, I'll get to it once I get home" Inuyasha voiced as the car was parked in front of his school "Thanks for the ride… you don't have to pick me up tomorrow" Sesshomaru nodded as Inuyasha stepped out of the car.
"And Inuyasha" Inuyasha turned to face his older brother who was currently smiling which was rare sight "stay out of trouble"
"Will do boss" Inuyasha said returning the rare brotherly affection shown from his only brother "go catch those bad guys" Inuyasha said closing the door, Sesshomaru nodded and drove off to work.
The sakura blossoms were once more in bloom indicating that a new school year was underway "Ah, there so pretty this time of year" she voiced out loud as she turned to look at a very much mortified younger brother "Oh come on Souta, don't tell me you're a shamed to walk with your older sister" she said catching her baby brother by surprise and laughed as he tried to reassure her otherwise.
"You know that's not the reason" Souta said looking shyly around noticing that people were continuing to stare at them "they continue to stare… their staring" Kagome smiled as she hugged her brother causing some of the girls to giggle at such a sisterly affection.
"Let them stare… the reason they are staring is because I have the cuties brother in the whole world" she voiced out loud causing her brother to blush in utter horror.
"Now, now Kagome you know that's not true… everyone knows that I have the cuties brother in the whole world" both Higurashi siblings turned around to glare at the person who decided to question the cuteness of any Higurashi.
"Ayame how was your summer?" Kagome said choosing to ignore the girl who had declared herself as her rival "I would guess it went well seeing that you still have a tan" it was more in the lines of a sun burn, but Kagome had chosen to be polite and Ayame knew that for she soon countered with
"Yup, it was great… how about yourself, not that you saw any sun this summer which I can tell by looking at how pale you are" Ayame laughed at her own joke, causing both siblings to look at each other and silently agree that the red head before them was defiantly not from this planet.
"We can't help it if we're allergic to the sun" Souta laughed at his sister joke which was a lot better than the one the annoying red head had attempted "Better get going Souta wouldn't want you to be late to your first class now would we" Souta frowned for he had the strangest feeling there was something else going on all together.
"I'll see you at lunch?" her brother asked hopefully, she nodded not seeing any reason to deny him "Okay, later then" Souta cheerfully said as he made his way to class
"Okay, now what do you really want" Kagome asked the red head before her who was now looking embarrassed for she had been caught in her own fib
"Darn, oh well… just to let you know my brother did join our school this year" Kagome nodded but it wasn't like Ayame to call her out publicly like she had done just moments before "Kouga asked me to deliver you a message" Kagome frowned "Don't look at me that way I'm just the massager" Ayame voiced in a panic; Kagome Higurashi had two face's: in the public eye she was a normal school teenage girl, but in the underworld of criminal activity she was the leader of the Higurashi clan and they were the most feared gang in the region and it was justly so since they had a reputation to up hold. One that she, herself wasn't going to witness first hand.
"What does your idiot of a leader want that can't wait until tonight" Kagome voiced as she noticed how quick Ayame had lost her temper before she remembered who she was speaking too; causing her to smirk "make it quick; I only have five minutes to get to class… thanks to you" her voice had gotten a degree lower showing the red head that she really meant business.
"Right, he didn't want any recorded information written down that's the reason why you are meeting tonight; just that he thinks it would be safer if the venue was changed" Kagome frowned seeing that Kouga was trying to hide something from her which caused her to quickly conclude to only one thing.
"He is being monitored isn't he… that idiot" she didn't need to be told just by the way Ayame had tensed at her suspicions was enough of an answer "Tell him to come to the club tonight; that's the only place to be able to speak in discretion" Ayame nodded not needing to hear anything more and headed to her own class, Kagome went to do the same "If I'm late because of that idiot, I'll kill him..." she had a persona to up hold she had to keep both her worlds separated which wasn't a simple task at doing; it was hard to live a double life especially like the one she had 'You can do this Kagome, it's your last year of school… then your home free… what can possibly go wrong' she smiled, the sun was shining and there was no clouds in sight it was a good omen not knowing that rain showers were predicted later that day.
The police station was in absolute up roar "Get me that report" shouted a very annoyed Sango who had only gotten a few hours of sleep "He is due any minute… find that report now" the inventory list that she had worked her ass off on finishing had magically disappeared into thin air it seemed "Move your ass" she screamed at a fellow colleague who had chosen to take a breather; she kicked him out of his seat causing the startled man to fall face first onto the cold floor "Find that report" she shouted once more causing more of her coworkers to stand to assist her very much scared for their lives.
"Found it" shouted a very relieved Ginta who was rewarded with a smile courtesy of Sango.
"Thank you so much Ginta you're my hero" Ginta laughed as he handed Sango the missing report "no problem… by the way Sango if you don't mind me saying this but I think it would be best if you took the rest of the day off" Ginta looked around to see the mess their second in command had caused and some hopeful looks of his colleagues.
"No I'll be fine, plus I'm just doing a four hour shift today… so it's not a big deal" Sango smiled as she made her way to the head prosecutors office hiding a yawn along the way "Thanks everyone who helped; as to show my appreciation lunch is on me today" still with a smile on her face she made her way towards the elevators. As the elevator door shut many let out a sigh of relief not that it lasted long for there was soon a loud and powerful voice echoing off the walls.
"What this! Get to work… you don't get paid for just standing around… move it" Sesshomaru shouted not even returning some panicked greetings "Ginta meet me in my office" Sesshomaru felt a headache coming on, it seemed to be telling him that today wasn't going to be such a good day after all.
"Yes sir" Ginta nodded as he began to give orders of his own "Yuri get Sesshomaru his morning coffee" Yuri paled at the order but nodded and made sure to get one for Sango as well; who really seemed to need one "Shika get me case file 2106" Ginta smiled "I love my job" causing some of his coworkers to glare at him with loathing while other respected him for not just anyone could put up with two tyrants; those tyrants being Sango and Sesshomaru the cream of la cream of sector 305. With both coffees and file in hand Ginta made his way towards Sesshomaru office where Sango would already be waiting.
"Ginta… I placed the report of all detainees on Sesshomaru's desk as you ordered" Ginta nodded to their newly hired help.
"Good, go help down stairs… Sango made a mess again" the short man paled as he nodded and left to do what he was told "Coffee anyone" Ginta happily sang as he opened the door noticing that Sesshomaru was already looking though the inventory list Sango and her team had provided.
"Sweet, sweet coffee" voiced Sango as she took one warm cup off of Ginta's hands "I also see you have a new case file… what's that one about" she smiled as she breathed in the sweet aroma.
"This case comes directly from the big guys up top" Sesshomaru nodded as he was handed his own coffee placing the file he had been looking at a side "With the majority of the band of seven now in our custody… there will be lot of moment from the other three top gangs; seeing that there is now new territory for the taking" Sango and Sesshomaru nodded seeing that was very much possible "That file has information that has been gathered the past two decade or so"
"So you're telling us it needs to be updated and the big guys up top want us to do it" Sango said seeing that the jerks didn't want to waste their precious time in gathering the well need information themselves which could finally bringing down the now three most powerful gangs in the region 'those lazy sons of...' her current thoughts interrupted by Ginta's happy go lucky voice.
"Bingo" Ginta said smiling as he took a seat next to Sango who was currently having a hard time keeping her cool 'lack of sleep' he silently told himself; still smiling he added "Should be simple enough seeing that most of the information just needs to be reconfirmed" Sesshomaru nodded not seeing any problem with it since it was one of those things that just came with the job.
"Very well, let's being" Sango and Ginta glanced at each other and smiled for the chase was about to being.
"Welcome Home" the Higurashi siblings smiled as they were greeted at the front of their house by loyal members of the Higurashi clan "How was your first day of school" asked their most trusted friend. The guy was a lecherous pervert but he had become like the older brother that they didn't have; even if he was a pervert which someday would be his own down fall. Miroku Hoshi had easily become family.
"Pleasantly normal" voiced Souta who was hit upside his head by his sister who angrily said
"Don't think that I have forgotten your behavior at lunch today little brother" Souta smiled shyly at his sister who was secretly proud of her brother even thou he had been in the wrong.
"That idiot had it coming… he was challenging me all day it was just a matter of time before I kicked his ass" Souta continued to smile while Kagome remained stern never wavering or giving into her brothers natural charm.
"At what price…" Souta smile banished slightly "think before you act… I can't always be there to protect you as much as I would like to… try to remember that" that being said she ignored her brothers hurt feelings and now spoke to older male "Miroku prepare the car you'll be joining me tonight" Miroku quickly went into bodyguard mode for he was always one to take his job seriously; occasionally.
"Sis can I go" Souta asked knowing what his sisters answer was going to be "Please" Miroku smiled knowing that no matter how much the younger boy whined he would not get his way on this particular subject because he never did.
"No, Miroku make sure you dress nice… Kouga will be meeting us there" Miroku faked a hurt look causing Kagome to roll her eyes at his antics.
"I'm hurt… are you indicating that I don't have good fashion sense" Souta still pouting at being denied once more on not going which only caused him to see no humor in the older man's antics "Fine I'll go change… I'll see you in two hours" Miroku offered as he winked and walked away leaving both siblings alone.
"Go start your homework, Souta" not speaking to his sister he walked away towards his own room causing Kagome to sigh seeing that her baby brother was giving her the cold shoulder.
"He'll come around… he always does, one day he'll come to understand that you're just trying to protect him" voiced the eldest Higurashi "Will Miroku be joining you tonight" he asked already knowing the answer.
"He is, Kouga is being monitored as I'm sure a part of his gang as well…" she sighed feeling that she was over thinking things once again but yet she felt she had to voice her suspicion "grandfather I'm suspect that there might have been a traitor"
"You referring to the band of seven… well they were more in the lines of no good thief's, they didn't have much loyalty to begin with" they made their way towards the beautiful garden as the drifted in and out of the cold and pleasant shadows provided by the tall trees outside their gates "Naraku's group is no different; just that he tends to have a heavy hand and strikes fear into his followers" Kagome nodded hearing what her grandfather had to say since he had the wisdom that she had yet to achieve "Fear not this meeting with Kouga is just to reinforce our peace treaty… nothing more" Kagome smiled feeling a little at ease that her grandfather was trying to reassure her, which she found herself still needing from time to time.
"Souta fought a boy from his class today at lunch" the eldest Higurashi frowned for his grandson wasn't one for violence "Given that the boy was aggravating him for most of the day… yet that still doesn't give him the right to throw the first punch" her grandfather slightly agreed "Souta is lacking in controlling his emotions"
"Now Kagome, he was not trained to be like you" she hide her hurt expression well "See what I mean… there's no shame in showing your emotions to those close to you" she felt her eyes being to tear up and hard as she tried to hold them back the more they pushed to the surface "Your strong and qualified to take on the responsibility of being the head of this family and clan… but there will come a time when you will have to make scarifies… there will come a time when you'll have to put this clan and family first; and I know it's cruel of me to push such a responsibility to one so young" she shook her head for she was sure she would hear this words from her grandfather once more.
"I more than anyone know the price to have excepted such a major responsibility… and I won't regret my decision" her grandfather nodded already predicting such a statement "I must go and get ready" she left her grandfather alone for the time being as he sank into the peaceful silence of the garden.
"Your mother had said the same thing… may she rest in peace" he was beginning to worry he had long ago denied his own daughter happiness and felt that his granddaughter was destined for that same lonely road "honorable daughter send your confused father a sign"
Stakeouts have never been pleasant especially when you were currently stuck with a partner who didn't know when to keep quite "Sesshomaru sir, I just wanted to thank you for giving me this opportunity to prove that I am of some use to the team" the short chubby man that sat next to him offered once more even if it was now the millionth time that he had done so.
"There is no need to thank me Jaken, the reason why you were chosen was that Ginta nor Sango where available" Sesshomaru glared at the nervous man; if it wasn't against protocol he would have done this alone "Now shut up and pay attention, since you'll be the one to take the pictures" finally it was silent just as a car came into view and stopped in front of the night club that went by the name of the Blue Raven which was an upcoming hot spot among those between the ages of seventeen and thirty "make sure to get their faces"
"Yes sir" Jaken nervously took the pictures not wanting to mess up his first official job out of the office "I'll do my best"
"Looks to me there is a meeting tonight" choosing to ignore the small man Sesshomaru smirk feeling very pleased with himself that it had been his idea to stake out this particular spot "so they had changed the venue" it seemed that he was already a step ahead of them "There exiting the car make sure to get a clear picture"
"Yes sir" ignoring the small man once more he took out the file he was carrying and conformed the face of the man that excited the very expensive foreign car "Kouga Wolf leader of the wolf tribe… what brings you to this side of town… neutral territory perhaps"
"Sir I believe that this night club is owned by the Higurashi clan" Jaken happily pointed out; not that it need to be said since Sesshomaru had already made sure to know what belong to what gang "and sir just to point out, it seemed that Kouga came alone"
"I can see that Jaken" Jaken quickly resumed to taking pictures "Perhaps there is no meeting or perhaps it already taken place… he is, in his right to drink a beer" Sesshomaru frowned something didn't seem right; the wolf tribe had bars and night clubs of their own why this particular club "Well continue to stay here, something's not right" and as predicted another car arrived moments later just as expensive as the one Kouga had arrived in "Here we go" Sesshomaru smiled always liking to be right.
"It seems that this one doesn't come alone, sir" Again Jaken liked to point the obvious as if Sesshomaru need to be reconfirmed on what he was seeing "His wearing the Higurashi clan symbol" the man was wearing a very expensive suit and on the left side of his shoulder he bore the symbol of the clan he represented a bold thing to do even if it was neutral territory.
"We have no information on him; the Higurashi seem to do well in keeping things well hidden" Sesshomaru watched the unknown man as he made his way to open the passenger door and froze. Because there before him was the most beautiful woman he had ever laid eyes on "My, what a lucky S.O.B" Sesshomaru couldn't help but comment.
"Excuse me sir" Jaken asked looking confused as if not sure if he just heard his superior alarming statement.
"Take a picture before she goes inside" Jaken did as he was order, Sesshomaru unknowingly was trying to memorize the face of the woman that was making her way into the building "Sorry sir we ran out of film"
"Doesn't matter we got what we wanted, let's call it a night" He said as he turned on the car and drove off trying memorize the face of the unknown woman into his mind failing to notice that she bore the crest of the Higurashi clan on the back of her formal kimono indicating that she was very much head of the clan "Develop those picture and have them on my desk first things in the morning" Jaken held his camera close as if it was his only life line.
"Yes, sir I'll have them first thing in the morning" Sesshomaru nodded as he silently hoped that the moron beside him had gotten a good picture of the woman.
