Kouga sniffed the air, inhaling deeply, working his way through the back alley’s as Rin and Kagome followed close behind him. He could smell it, death. Death, pain, suffering, he could smell it all. They were close, very close.



He didn’t know much about this woman that they had found, other than the fact that they had found a dead woman. What was it that they needed to investigate for? It’s not like they were working every case in the U.S. just one.



He took another deep breath and paused, sniffing again just to be sure. Amidst all the abandoned buildings his nose was zeroing in on this one. It didn’t look any different on the outside than all the other run down and dilapidated buildings. It would be inside, inside of the building that was different. For some reason, this one was different. He could smell it. Death, blood, both scents he was horrifyingly familiar with in his line of work.



Crouching down low he hung back behind a large pile of abandoned card board boxes. His muscles were tense and aching, fit to burst with the strain of both his crouched position and anticipation. He hated getting involved in shit that was not his business.



Rin however, had decided that this was something worth checking out. If she was interested, he knew that she would do something about it with or without him there. She had already decided it was her business, and she was his. There was no way he was going to let her run around the U.S. shooting up places on her own, especially with a mass murdering child molester on the loose.



He could feel Rin behind him; feel the heat of her so close to him, the warmth from her breath lightly hitting his ear. He could hear her panting, trying to catch her breath and the sound brought flash backs to that night, that night that she had been panting like that because of him.



Kouga shivered at the memory.



What was going to happen between them now? Had he truly lost her? With Sesshoumaru in the mix, did that mean that everything between Rin and himself now counted for nothing?



Kouga tried to push that thought process to the back of his mind, they had work to do. He could here Kagome coming up behind him as well. This was his first time meeting her. Rin had told him that she was married to Sesshoumaru’s younger brother Inuyasha. Marriage wasn’t the right word however, she was mated to Inuyasha. There was a lot more to mating than just marriage, it was almost an insult now that he thought about it. Rin had grown up around youkai all her life, how could she not know the difference?



He wasn’t to sure why Kagome was with them in the first place, she was a liability, and not to mention a huge problem should she get hurt. He did not want to have to put up with her pissed off mate if things turned ugly and she wound up with a bullet in her skull.



He could feel Rin start to move forward and growled low, letting just a small yip out.



Rin ducked back down behind him, she knew what that meant. Working with a youkai, a canine one at that-for so long she had begun to grow accustomed, dare he say understand what little yip’s and barks meant.



She couldn’t move yet, he was going first, they would follow. Whether he ended up with Rin or not, that would not change the fact that he would never allow anyone to harm her. He would cut off his own dick before that happened, and like most men, he loved his dick.



Starting forward he kept his gun at his side, drawn, ready to be used if necessary. The familiar weight of the pistol giving him comfort, what was it about this place that had him so nervous?



It wasn’t just the wreaking scent of death that irked him, but something else; he felt a strong aura of magic, of evil.



He could sense no movement from inside. This was ridiculous, this was probably just some abandoned warehouse and they weren’t going to find anything except thrown out garbage and maybe a bum or two.



Grabbing hold of the door handle to the rotted out wooden door that led into part of the warehouse he was shocked to feel that it wouldn’t budge. Who would have thought someone had cared enough about this junk hole to lock the door.



No problem, they could just kick in the door. It was old and half rotten; it should give way very easily with almost no noise at all if done correctly.



Backing up and preparing to kick the door he noticed something else, something at the door jam that kept catching the light of the moon.



Kneeling down he saw a metal bar, extending from the top of the door frame to the bottom.



“What the hell?” Kouga whispered quietly to himself.



Running his fingers over the rim of the door he couldn’t believe it. There had to be something important about this so called “abandoned” ware house for the doors to have a metal casing. A metal casing that was meant to keep the door sturdy, funny, considering this place looked like a run down piece a shit.



Placing his palm on the door he could feel the wood nearly disintegrate beneath his hand. This part of the door seemed so old and was completely falling apart, so how did they get a metal casing around it?



Pushing hard with his finger he scraped at the wood and it began to give way, chipping off little by little until he felt his fingers hit something hard and cold.



Those bastards had a metal door disguised quite elaborately like a frail old wooden one. He wondered what was behind that door that someone had taken such pains to hide. Was the entire building like this?



Reaching over to the door jam he lightly tapped on that as well.



The resounding ping said it all. Oh yeah, someone had replaced the door jam as well, he was willing to bet that the entire warehouse was disguised much in the same manner as this.



“What’s taking so long Kouga? Are we gonna do this or aren’t we?” Rin whispered slightly annoyed.



“Chill out. I’m working on it.” Kouga replied with an annoyed look.



Kagome looked around at the old building and could feel the hairs on the back of her neck begin to rise. Something wasn’t right about this place, she could feel it. It was just this strong feeling in her gut that told her to stay away.



Ignoring her gut, and the part of her brain that was telling her that her gut was ALWAYS right she looked around the building.



A window at the top of the fire escape caught her eye.



“Bingo.”



Kouga and Rin turned to look at Kagome, wondering what she was referring to. Looking over to the spot she was pointing at Rin grinned.



“Way to go Kagome. I guess it was a good idea that I brought you along.”



Kagome gave her a look and elbowed her.



Rin broke out into a grin at Kagome’s response. She didn’t know Inuyasha very well, hell, she had only met him once, but she could definitely say she liked his mate. Kagome was almost as feisty as she was. What was it about Takahashi men that they couldn’t resist feisty women?



Slinking forward Rin started to scale the fire escape but was stopped abruptly by a hand on her ankle.



Looking down she saw Kouga glaring up at her.



“What?” She whispered, fighting the urge to kick him in his teeth for stopping her.



“I don’t want you going first.”



Arching a brow Rin looked at him.



“And I don’t remember making you the boss of me.” Rin shot back trying to shake his hand off.



Kouga growled loudly, his fangs biting into his bottom lip and he grasped her ankle tighter.



“I am the alpha and as such I am in control.”



Kagome took a step back at Kouga’s display. She wasn’t afraid, not in the least, just immensely confused by Kouga’s statement. Things like this, battle for dominance and submission, this was fought for by two individuals that were mated, the male having dominance over the female. It was youkai nature for a reaction such as this, but a reaction such as this was only between two people who were mated.



Rin and Kouga, they weren’t…..



Looking down at him Rin glared, not at all impressed by the act. It had happened more than a few time’s during their partnership, she had always chalked it up to Kouga’s youkai nature. Males were always dominant in a pack; hence his reaction when she wanted to do something that usually was undoubtedly stupid and risky.



But did he have to do this now? She had put up with his dominance crap enough times that he should realize by now she wasn’t going to concede. While she did at times when she knew he was right, now was not one of those times. She understood his youkai nature and usually, on other things would concede and let him lead as her “alpha,” but she had always just chalked it up to the whole male dominance thing that was deeply seeded in youkai gene’s, even in this day and age when men and woman were equals.



She wasn’t going to let him get away with it this time.



“Are you going to fit through that window?”



Kouga growled at her, his youki telling him to punish his bitch for defying him, the logical part of him reminding him that she wasn’t his. Biting his lip Kouga was brought back to his sense by the test coppery taste of blood in his mouth.



“Just go.”



Kagome watched the exchange with growing interest. The way Kouga and Rin acted around each other. How long had he been courting her? From Rin’s reaction, it was almost as if she didn’t understand. Was it that she didn’t know the mating rituals of youkai? Could she be so oblivious that she had no idea that Kouga was in love with her?



In the short time she had watched the interaction between the two partners she knew, Kagome could see it in his eyes every time he looked at Rin.



“I’ll go.”



Both sets of eyes, those belonging to Rin and those belonging to Kouga turned to look at her.



“Kagome, you don’t have to.” Rin said softly.



“Yeah Kagome, I’m not sure if that’s the best idea.”



Kagome looked at both partners who were previously arguing.



“Look, I’m small enough to fit through that window and this way, I won’t have to listen to you both bicker. I swear you’re like an old married couple.”



Looking up at Rin she smirked.



“Now get down so I can climb up.”



Rin bit back a laugh and climbed back down the fire escape and jumped down.



“Alright fine, but be careful.” Rin whispered to Kagome.



Nodding, Kagome pulled herself up. “I am just going in and unlocking the door, not doing brain surgery, which I might add I am not qualified for, unlike this.”



Climbing up the fire escape Kagome reached her destination. Grabbing onto the latch of the window she forced it open and wiggled her way in, feet first.



Gripping the edge of the window tightly she began to work her way into the small window opening. She felt the ledge of the window biting painfully into her hands and she had to bite back a yelp.



Dangling from the inside of the window, she mentally prepared herself for the drop from the window to the floor. It was just about a twenty foot drop and she knew it was going to hurt like hell whether she landed on her feet or not.



Taking in a deep breath she let go of the window and stifled a painful gasp as she hit the ground on her feet, the harsh landing causing pain to shoot up her legs. Kneeling down silently, unmoving she waited for the pain to subside and took the opportunity to allow her eyes to adjust to the darkness of the so called ‘abandoned’ warehouse.



It was so dark she could barely see her hand in front of her face, no matter how much her eyes adjusted, she didn’t think she would be able to see anything without the lights.



The pain now gone in her legs, she continued to kneel down; waiting just a little longer, listening for any sound that might be a clue as to if someone was here.



Releasing a breath she hadn’t realized she had been holding, Kagome made her way over to the direction of the door, quietly shuffling her feet in front of her before taking a step to make sure she didn’t step on something that would make noise and reveal that there were intruders.



Reaching out to touch the wall she jerked her hand back. It was sharp, the walls were sharp.



“What the hell?” Kagome whispered to herself.



Picking up the pace she touched the wall again, softer this time and managed to not stab herself with whatever was adorning the walls.



Finally she felt it, cool metal, the door.



Grabbing onto the door handle she reached above it and flipped over the lock. Reaching for the handle again she tried to open the door, startled to find that it wouldn’t budge.



Frowning, Kagome moved her hand along the door until she felt it. A bar of metal that reached across the door, just under the handle, it was thick, almost like a two by four made of metal. In the middle was a handle, grabbing a hold of it she tried to turn it.



Kagome grunted with the effort to get it to turn. Grabbing it again with both hands she placed her foot in the door jam for leverage and twisted with all her might. It began to turn, a fourth of the way, half of the way, three fourths.



Kagome stopped, gasping with the effort as she felt her muscles threaten to come apart at the strain of trying to force the lock to turn.



*Well I must agree, for an abandoned warehouse, this certainly is becoming obnoxiously difficult to get into.*



Taking a deep breath, Kagome grabbed onto the handle again. Putting all her weight into it she pulled as hard as she could and just about cried out in relief as she heard a loud click as the lock came undone.



Stumbling back she panted with the effort and listened to the sound of metal moving inside the door and clicking into place as the door suddenly burst open.



Kagome fell back and landed on her butt as Rin and Kouga appeared.



“What the hell took so long?” Kouga spat.



Rin smacked him in the arm and then reached over to help Kagome up. Mouthing

‘fuck you’ to Kouga.



“You alright?” She asked Kagome.



Glaring at Kouga, Kagome answered Rin softly.



“Yes, I’m fine. That door just gave me a lot more trouble than any of us could have anticipated.”



Staring out into the darkness, Rin could see absolutely nothing. She felt a cold chill go up her spine. There was something about this place that she made her stomach knot up and a cold sweat start on her brow. Taking a deep breath she turned to Kouga.



“Can you see any better than we can at the moment?”



Kouga growled low in irritation at their current situation. They shouldn’t be here, something deep in his gut told him that something very bad was going to happen. He wanted to get them in and out of this place as fast as possible. The evil jyaki that permeated the walls of this place said enough. This had big bad youkai written all over it and he needed to get them out.



“We don’t have a warrant.”



Rin and Kagome turned and looked at him.



Rin arched a brow and put a hand on her hip, with the other one she reached behind her and pulled her flashlight out of her back pocket.



“And when has that ever stopped us before?”



Turning on the flash light she walked past him and into the darkness, following the little beam of light.



“Rin I’m serious, this isn’t Japan we can’t get away with this shit here!” He whispered angrily, panic beginning to set it. Something wasn’t right about this place; he needed to get Rin and Kagome the fuck out of there as fast as possible.



Rin grunted at Kouga’s words and continued on her exploration.



“Take a fucking xanax and chill the fuck out. I’m not leaving until I get to take a look around.”



“We’ve come this far, I think going back now would be stupid. A quick look around won’t get us busted. It’s obvious nobody is here.” Kagome added, looking at Kouga.



*What is freaking him out so much? Its not like Kouga to act like a pussy.*



Rin just shrugged the though process out of her mind and continued.



Looking around the room with thanks to her flashlight she noticed it looked quite a bit like a chop shop. She could see the lifts and things that were used to haul up cars and flashed her light under them, walking farther and farther away from her companions.



Flashing the beam of light up she noticed that there were chains dangling from the lifts and there wasn’t a car in sight. There were no tools, as far as she could tell but some other type of equipment that were unfamiliar to her.



Wondering along she made her way down a narrow corridor. It seemed to be getting colder and colder the farther she went letting out a breath she could see it on the air.



She could hear Kagome and Kouga moving around in the room she had previously left and so she felt no concern over someone possibly sneaking up behind her.



Coming to the end of the corridor she reached a door. Wiping her palms on her jeans she felt the sweat seep through, wet and cold. What was going on? She had never been this nervous during an investigation before. Was Kouga’s sudden paranoia getting to her?



Reaching out, she grabbed the door knob, the cold metal sticking to her sweaty palm. Pushing the door open she took a deep breath and stepped inside.



Opening the door she flashed her flash light in front of her, a breath of air leaving her lungs in relief.



*See Rin, Nothing there.*



She could smell the faint scent of sex in the air and began to wonder who had last been here and how long ago that may have been.



Touching her hand to the door behind her she pushed it shut, hearing it close completely with a soft click. Running her hand down the door she felt strange markings on it, almost like carvings.



Flashing her light on the door behind her she looked closely at the marks, running her fingers along them.



They were jagged lines all close together. There were one, two, three, four, five. Five jagged lines next to each other in random parts of the door, all dug out roughly, but the funny thing was that they didn’t look like carvings they looked like-



Rin felt her heart stop in her chest and her blood run cold. The hairs on the back of her neck began to stand up and she felt a cold chill run up her spine.



“Scratch marks.” She whispered.



Taking a closer look she noticed the red stains on the door, the blood red stains trailing down from the scratch marks.



“Jesus Christ.”



Turning around quickly she stopped at the wall to the left of the door. Flashing her light on it she gasped in horror.



Whips lined the walls, all of them hanging neatly one right next to the other. There were old fashioned riding crops, single tailed whips, bull whips, braided leather snake whips, studded whips. It was the largest assortment she had ever seen in a case. Farther along the walls were different sorts of sex toys used for domination like handcuffs, gas masks, multi colored cords of rope, paddles and all sorts of vibrators and dildo’s.



Whoever the fuck this guy was he had the largest assortment of torture and sex devices that she had ever been unlucky enough to bare witness to.



Next to the large array of ball gags was something she couldn’t quite make out. Coming closer, she saw a cord dangling from a hook on the wall. Reaching out to touch it she noticed sharp small sharp objects attached to it. It almost looked like a homemade whip. Squinting her eyes to take a closer look, she moved the sharp white object in her hand. Running her thumb over the smoothness of it Rin felt the bile rise in the back of her throat as she finally identified the object.



Teeth, human teeth were what were attached to this guy’s homemade whip. Tossing it away from her Rin jerked back, frantically trying to wipe the feeling of the teeth in her hand onto her pants, trying to forget the smooth texture and the pearly white color of something that was supposed to be in someone’s mouth, not attached to some psycho’s whip.



Dropping her flashlight in the process Rin jumped as the light from it disappeared and left her in total darkness.



Taking a deep breath she struggled to calm herself. Panicking would only make the situation worse. She could hear her own ragged breathing and it disgusted her.



She couldn’t freak out over something so trivial she was a professional for fucks sake! She had encounters with much stranger things in her line of work, so what was it about this place that scared her so much? What was so bad about this place that it chilled her to the bone? Was it because of the familiarity of it all?



Closing her eyes Rin forced herself to calm down and take slow deep breaths.



Getting on her hands and knees she felt around on the floor, moving slowly, brushing her hands around in an effort to find her discarded flashlight.



Just as her fingertips brushed the cold hard metal of her police issued flashlight Rin froze in her place at the soft sound of jingling behind her. She felt her heart thumbing violently, threatening to burst forth from her chest.



On reflex she reached for the gun at her side, pulling it silently yet quickly from its sheath. She heard the jingling again and she knew she wasn’t mistaken.



Grasping the flashlight in one hand she moved her fingers silently along the handle, searching for the glorious little button that would flood the room with light.



Taking a deep breath Rin forced herself to calm and concentrate, flipping into work mode Rin steeled herself against the oncoming wave of panic.



Swinging around she pointed her gun forward and flipped her flashlight on at the same time. Staying crouched down she kept her gun in position, steady and locked in place, the flashlight grasped in her other hand which was resting steadily on the wrist of the hand that was pointing her gun.



“Freeze! Police!” Rin shouted, fully prepared for the onslaught she knew was coming.



Rin’s words caught in her throat and her eyes widened in shock, she felt bile rising in her throat as she fought the urge to vomit at the sight before her.



“Oh my god.” She whispered horrified, her brain fighting to register what her eyes were seeing.



* * * * * * * *



Kagome moved around the warehouse carefully, thankful for Kouga’s generosity in giving her his flashlight. He was a youkai after all, so the flashlight would really be of no use to him. It was just procedure she supposed.



Everything about this place gave her the creeps. After searching the main part of the warehouse and finding nothing that seemed to be of any importance, she decided to delve deeper.



She had now wandered her way to a back room that looked almost like a bedroom, bar, office mix. There was a large bed in the middle of the room, a king sized bed to be exact with shackles attached at the head and footboard. Whoever stayed in the room was certainly into some kinky shit. On the shelves above the bed held an assortment of strange knives and what looked to be blindfolds.



Farther back against the wall there was what appeared to be a mini-bar with specialty liquors that were made for youkai. They had higher levels of alcohol in them so that any youkai drinking them would be able to get a buz quickly. Any beer that was intended for humans would be easy to get her tipsy, but when Inuyasha drank them, he had to go through quite a few cases before he even felt light headed.



Along with the bottles of liquor there were a bunch of unmarked bottles of liquids she could not identify, nor did she want to try. Opening the mini fridge she found container full of different kinds of strange things. Opening one container Kagome bit back the urge to vomit as she was greeted with the sight of a heart that had been cut out of something’s body.



Gulping hard she shut the lid and tossed it back into the fridge, not willing to continue looking through the containers of unknown contents.



Continuing in her search she came upon a desk in the opposite corner. Coming around to the back of it she began to carefully sort through the paperwork on the desk in an effort to find something that would clue them into who owned the warehouse.



Finding nothing conclusive in the piles of paperwork on the desk she opened the drawers and began to rifle through them.



Pulling out a rather thick manila folder she flipped it open.



“What the fuck?” she gasped.



Flipping through the papers and pictures contained in the folder she felt a wave of panic and nausea hit her. There were dozens of pictures and pages of information, all of it on her.



Dropping the folder unceremoniously on the desk she jerked back and hit the wall behind her.



She ran a trembling hand through her hair as she began to panic.



*what the hell is going on? Where are there all these pictures of me? What am I supposed to do now? What is this guy!?*



Kagome’s thought process immediately stopped as she heard the door to the room open and then close quietly. She felt her heart begin to beat violently in her chest as she heard the lock click into place.



As quietly as she possibly could began to reach down to the gun holster at her side.



Not only was she panicking about the situation but she also had never had to pull it out any time other than she was practicing at the shooting range with Inuyasha. Even in her department she mainly worked in the labs and picked up evidence after the crime scene was found. She had never had to pull it out on a person before.



She could hear the footsteps coming slowly but steadily towards her and she felt the hairs on the back of her neck begin to rise. Panic began to overwhelm her as she felt her hand beginning to tremble harder.



She knew she just had to calm down and concentrate, just like Inuyasha had taught her. Stay calm and only use the gun if necessary.



She felt a small wave of relief as she felt her hand touch the cold metal of the gun at her side. Reaching her fingers over the clip that locked the gun in its holster she froze.



“Don’t even think about it little miko, I have been waiting for you for a very long time.”

* * * * * * *



Rin grasped the cold metal bars of the steel cage in the back of the room she had been searching. Holding on tightly she felt tears sting the back of her eyes at the sight before her.



There was a little girl, dangling from the top of the cage in complete bondage, rope twisting and turning the child’s limbs in different directions, suspending the girl in mid air. Her legs were bent backwards, forcing her back to be arched as high as it could possibly go. Her arms were bent back in much the same fashion and tied securely to her feet. A second rope was twisted all around her body, tied around her neck, trailing down around her waist and then coming up between her legs and pulled tightly between them, reaching all the way up to tie around the knot at her hands. With the way the second rope was tied, it was almost as if the rope was pulled between the young girls legs and trying to force itself inside of her body, pushed tightly between both ass cheeks.



The girls head was hanging down, her light brown hair dangling down, hiding her face from Rin’s view. She could see blood trailing down from the childs legs, effectively soaking the rope that held her in her own blood.



Rin could feel the tears threatening to burst forth as she stared at the young girl. Steeling herself against it she yanked on the door to the cage as hard as she could, but no matter how much she tried her strength was no match against a padlock.



“God damnit!” Rin screamed, kicking the steel bars as hard as she could.



Forgetting all about procedure and safety, Rin cocked back the safety on her gun and shot at the padlock, excitement rushing through her as she watched it burst into little pieces and fall to the ground.



*I’ll make him pay for this. I’ll make him pay! What kind of monster does this to a child!*



“Stupid question Rin, you know exactly what kind of monster does this to a child.” Rin voiced to herself.



Yanking open the door Rin latched onto the young girl, holding onto her body and lifting it up as high as she could, trying to take some of the strain off of the girls already abused body.



“Help me!” Rin screamed in a flurry of emotions. The only thing that mattered right now was getting this little girl down and out of this place.



She nearly sobbed in relief as Kouga burst through the door.



“Rin I heard your gunshots and……” Kouga froze as he saw the child in Rin’s arms as she tried desperately to release the girl from her bondage.



“Help me Kouga!” She shrieked at him.



Her words kicked Kouga back into gear as he struggled to contain himself. All he could think of whenever he found cases like this was Rin. He wondered how she got up everyday and dealt with all this after her own childhood. A large part of him respected her greatly for it, another part of him hated her for putting herself through such torment.

What was she trying to prove?



Grabbing a hold of the rope Kouga gave a hard tug and latched onto Rin and the child as the rope gave way. He and Rin lowered the girl to the ground and he watched as Rin cradled the child in her own lap.



“Find something to cut this with! Hurry!”



Kouga bolted upright and began to search through the array of torture devices as Rin examined the girl. Tilting the childs face up Rin’s eyes locked on the terrified chocolate colored gaze of the little girl in her arms.



Reaching behind the girls head Rin undid the ball gage that had kept the girl silent. The girl did nothing but whimper and drop her head back down into Rin’s lap, not having the energy or the will to do anything other than lay there.



As Kouga approached the young girl whimpered again, terrified to see him coming at her and more terrified to see the knife he held in his hand.



Rin held the girl tightly, whispering soft words of reassurances in her ear. She stroked the back of the girls head as Kouga bent down and proceeded to cut the bindings that had torn its way into the childs flesh.



The young girl screamed as her arms and legs were released from their previous position and she dug her tiny fingers into Rins leg as Kouga pulled away the rope that was stuck between her legs was pulled loose.



Kouga felt his stomach rumble and threaten to dispose all of its contents as he watched the rope fall away from between the childs legs and revealed why she was bleeding so profusely. There, firmly set between her legs were two large, completely white dildo’s, one shoved up each orfice.



He brought his hand up to his mouth and gagged, he could feel himself getting ready to vomit and he felt the tears sting the back of his eyes.



“Jesus Christ.” He gasped out, turning his back on the little girl.



It wasn’t the rope burns over virtually all of the childs body that had caused all the bleeding, it was this. The rope that was tied between her legs had been there to keep the two dildo’s firmly lodge inside of her body.



Calming himself down Kouga turned back around and signaled to Rin to hold the girl tightly as possible. He wanted to make this as quick and painless for her as it could be, but with the dried blood and the intense redness from both irritation and the childs shredded anus and vagina there was no way it was not going to be a painful experience. He could see where the delicate flesh on her had started to rip apart and he steeled himself, using all his willpower not to loose it.



Carefully, he reached forward and took a deep breath. Because both dildo’s were lodged so deeply inside of the little girls body he knew he was going to have to physically stick his fingers inside of her to get a good enough hold on them to get them out.



Swallowing harshly Kouga reached two fingers inside the girls vagina, feeling her squirm and trying to escape. He felt his stomach churn at his actions and grimaced as he felt the girls insides tear just a little more. He could hear her whimpers and he wished to god he was anywhere else but here at the moment.



Grasping the dildo between two fingers he yanked it out as quickly as he could, a yelp escaping the childs mouth as he could hear her sobbing against Rins lap.



With a trembling hand he reached for the next one, trying to keep his mind anywhere but on the situation at hand.



* * * * * * * * * *



“Who are you?!” Kagome screamed at the figureless voice.



She could hear him coming closer and closer to her as she stood trapped behind the desk in the dark room of the apparently not abandoned warehouse.



She heard a soft chuckling as the man came closer and closer to her, she felt the heat of his body as he closed in fast.



“So sad, you don’t remember me? It pains me that you don’t remember.”



Kagome froze as she felt him stop in front of her, she could feel the fronts of his thighs touching the front of hers and she shivered at the warmth of his breath on her neck.



“My little miko. Its so nice to see you again in this lifetime, the last time we met you had taken a vow of chastity that I broke for you.”



She felt the hairs on the back of her neck rise in fear as she struggled to control the panic that was trying to firmly take hold of her.



“As I have seen you did not take such a vow this century. It’s a shame; I did so enjoy relieving you of your chastity.”



The man inhaled deeply, bending his head down and burying his face in her neck.



Kagome began to tremble lightly and she felt her palms begin to sweat in fear.



“I don’t even know you, you’ve got the wrong person.” She whimpered.



The man chuckled as he placed his hand on Kagome’s stomach and began to trail it up to her breast.



The feeling of panic she had been trying to tamper down was now back with full force as her body began to tremble harder.



“My little miko.” The man whispered again as he grasped her right breast firmly in his hand.



Kagome jumped at the contact and fought the urge to cry. Nobody had ever touched her like that but Inuyasha, when she had met him in college she had been a virgin which he had promptly seen to changing.



“I don’t know who you are looking for but I assure you I am not her.”



The man ignored her as he began to trail his other hand down her body and around her waist. She winced as she felt him begin to tug at her gun holster and she heard the soft click of the lock on it coming undone as the man pulled out her gun.



“Don’t try to trick me little miko. That makes me very unhappy.”



Kagome glared at him, unable to make out any distinct facial features other than his eyes and fangs. *youkai*



“I am not miko! Now get the fuck off of me!” Kagome screamed as she planted her hands on his chest and pushed him forward with all her might. Gasping in shock as she felt a warmth in her body begin to grow and pulse, she could hear it ringing in her ears as she felt wave after wave of images bombard her. Her eyes closed and she felt the warmth expelling itself from her body in a flash as she concentrated on those images of people she had never scene and places she had never been, she was only briefly aware of the screams of pain that were coming from the room.



Opening her eyes she looked down at the man who had been holding her tightly. He was now lying on the ground clear across the room from her, the desk he had been leaning against shattered and in splinters all around the room.



“I know you now Naraku.” She spoke in a voice that wasn’t her own.



She could see so clearly all of the sudden, everything looked so bright and detailed. The man before her, Naraku, she knew him from a long time ago, from a life that wasn’t her own. What was going on?



“I warn you Naraku, do not touch this girl.”



*Who is that? I don’t understand, why are these words coming from me? That’s not my voice!*



Kagome approached him slowly, staring him in the eyes. She could feel hatred well up inside of her for him, but she didn’t now this man, why did she hate him so much? Why wasn’t she in control of her own body right now? Why did she keep getting closer?!



She saw a sinister smile spread across the man, Naraku’s face. His inky black hair spread out around him, his fangs visible as he smiled. She could feel the evil radiating off of him as he looked up at her with desire and hatred.



“Kikyo.” He whispered, his voice thick with lust. “You are dead, I am taking this girl no matter what you say. After I kill that mutt of yours.”



Kagome began to panic, trying to speak, trying to cry out, trying to force her body to stop moving closer to this horrible man.



“You will not touch my reincarnation, and you will not touch Inuyasha.” She spoke coldly in a voice Kagome had never heard before.



*How are these words coming out of my mouth?! How does he know Inuyasha?!*



Naraku licked his lips as he looked at her and she struggled against the forces controlling her harder.



“You cannot hurt me Kikyo, you never could.”



Kagome shivered as she felt her eyes lock onto Naraku’s and his eyes lock onto her own in a glaring war for dominance. Suddenly, she felt like everything was going to be alright. This warming sensation that had taken over her body and fogged her mind, whoever it was that was controlling her body was here to help. She knew that now, but how did she know that? Who was Kikyo?



“Maybe I could not, but I am no longer myself, I am now Kagome and you have no hold over her.”



Kagome felt the warmth grow stronger in her body, she felt it pulsing again, stronger than before. That’s when she felt it, Naraku’s fear.



“I will kill you.”



Naraku glared at her, his eyes glowing in fury. He knew she was serious.



“You win this round Kikyo, but you cannot protect her forever.”



Kagome gasped as her body was surrounded by miasma, it filled the room and she felt her head begin to spin as she stumbled backwards.



*whats going on?!*



Kagome panicked as she began to cough, gripping her stomach tightly. She felt the warmth in her body slowly subside and then vanish altogether. Opening her eyes once again Naraku was gone.



Biting back a sob Kagome slid to the ground, gulping in the clean air as she gripped her stomach.



“I don’t understand any of this.” She whispered, tears stinging her eyes.



* * * * * * * * *



Kouga held the young girl closely as he took up Rin’s vacated spot on the ground as she went off in search of something to cover the child with. She had passed out from pain as he was removing the last dildo that had been so deeply embedded inside of her.



The second he had pulled it out a rush of fieces followed, her body to shredded and torn to be able to control anything the way a human should. It wasn’t that uncommon for people who were brutally penetrated in the ass to loose the ability to control their bowel movements. He wasn’t angry or disgusted about it. It tended to happen if your insides were so torn up the muscles that were in place to control it didn’t work since they were so severely damaged. It wasn’t the first time he had witnessed it, and it probably wouldn’t be the last.



His eyes glowed with sadness as he looked down at the poor girl, brushing her knotted, sweat soaked bangs from her face. He began to wonder if they were doing a good thing after all. By taking this poor girl away, they were sentencing her to a life of unending suffering and pain. She would have to live with this experience forever, and something like this didn’t just end when you were set free, it continued until you departed from this world. He knew that just by watching Rin and the way she lived her life. He had always been able to see it, the pain and suffering in her eyes she revealed when she thought no one was looking.



Sure, they were saving this girls body, but her mind and soul were destroyed the second this maniac had gotten his hands on her. Her life would never be the same, and she would forever be haunted by memories, by fear.



Were they really the hero’s people made them out to be? They were punishing this child in a way more painful than this rapist ever could; they were forcing her to live.



Shaking his head, Kouga looked around the room at all of the tortures this little girl had been put through. Was it really worth it anymore? This job, was it really worth it? He wasn’t sure if yes was the correct answer to that question any more.



* * * * * * * *



Rin looked frantically around the warehouse with her flashlight held firmly in her hands looking for something, anything to cover the little girl with. She yanked open shelves on the far end of the warehouse and found nothing but toys, sex toys.



She bit back a growl as she felt rage envelope her. She didn’t understand how someone could do this to anyone, let alone a child. How could someone be so fucking twisted that they got their kicks from raping and torturing children?!



These kids got their lives ruined, their innocence stolen. These were kids that never got a chance to experience a childhood because of what? Chance? Fate? God? Who was it that decided that these children had to experience this? What kind of god would put someone through this torture?



She didn’t believe it, she couldn’t. There was no such thing as god. No god would allow this to happen, and if she died and she turned out to be wrong, well she’d certainly give god a piece of her mind.



These children that continued to live, even after something like this happening to them it was always in fear, there were always repercussions. Some of them couldn’t take it, the pain, the fear, the memories. Suicide was not uncommon among rape victims, child suicides were even more common, and she knew that from experience.



She did her best to save as many of them as she could, but some people didn’t want to be saved, not after that.



Yanking open another drawer Rin spotted a large black sheet in the very back. Reaching in she grabbed it, fully prepared to make a mad dash for Kouga and the little girl and then grab Kagome and get the hell out of there.



Before she had the chance to even close the drawer she heard footsteps approaching from behind her.



Looking over her shoulder she peered into the darkness and saw nothing.



“Kagome? Is that you Kagome?”



She felt the hairs on the back of her neck rise up and a chill crawl up her spine as she heard nothing but the heavy footsteps of someone approaching.



Closing the drawer quietly behind her, she took a few steps to the left, quietly trying to inch her way to the door. She jumped in surprise as she was suddenly blinded by light. Jerking back, she closed her eyes against the sudden brightness of the warehouse as the lights flipped on. Blinking slowly to allow her eyes to adjust to the light Rin stopped breathing at the man before her. A man she thought she would never see again, a man that haunted her at night.



“Daddy.” Rin whispered as she felt the blood drain from her face and she felt fear wrap so tightly around herself that she couldn’t move. Her heart beat violently, frantically trying to escape its confines in her chest.



She felt wave after wave of memory wash over her. Memories, so many memories, so much pain. She couldn’t look at him, but she couldn’t take her eyes off him.



Her body began to tremble with fear and she felt like she did so long ago. She was ten years old again, helpless, unable to do anything but cry and beg for him to stop.



Muso approached, a gentle smile spread across his deceivingly handsome and trustworthy face, his shaggy brown hair brushing his shoulders lightly.



He was a friendly looking man, appearing trustworthy and gentle when he wanted to be. He was tall with a slim build, his tanned skin making his blue eyes appear bright. This was how he caught his victims, hell, this was how he had caught her mom.



“My sweet baby girl, I’ve missed you so much.” He said softly, lovingly, trying to encourage Rin to step closer.



Her body trembled violently as she watched him approach. This was just like before, he was always like this when he wanted her.



She could feel his hands on her already, could feel the pain that he inflicted, the scars he had left.



She tried to force her body to move, to do what she had to do to protect herself and to her disgust she could do nothing but tremble in fear before him. She couldn’t run, he would catch her, he always caught her, and every time she ran it would be worse, he’d make it hurt more.



Rin whimpered as she felt the tears start to fall, scalding her cheeks as they burned their way down. She couldn’t fight him.



“Why?” She croaked desperately. “Why are you here?”



Muso sighed as he watched his daughter, every movement of her body exciting him. He was surprised that after all these years he was still attracted to her, she was too old now, to used. He chalked it up to all of the memories, all the pleasure he had received from her as a child.



“I wanted to see you, to see who you grew up to become. I called you here, left hints, clues even. I wanted to see you my precious daughter.”



Rin dug her fingernails into her hands as her body threatened to collapse in fear. The panic was overwhelming her; he was going to get her again, going to do what he wanted. He wasn’t supposed to do that, he was supposed to love her, he was supposed to love her the way she loved him.



“Clues?” She asked confused, disconnected.



Muso cocked his head to the side and frowned.



“You didn’t know? I even used your necklace; you remember the one don’t you?”



“Necklace?” She questioned, she tried to remember but her brain wasn’t functioning, her body wasn’t working. She couldn’t do anything but stand there, frozen in her fear.



“The one that youkai left you. That boy, Sesshoumaru. Filthy youkai, he wanted you for himself, he wanted to defile you, but you were mine! You have always been mine!”



Rin sobbed as she sagged against the wall, watching him as he got angrier, as his words got harsher. He was coming closer, so close, he was going to hurt her, he was going to do it again and there was nothing she could do to stop it.



“All those girls, they were just substitutes for you. I chose them carefully, I only wanted the one’s who looked like you. So I imagined, I imagined you in their place.”



Muso stopped, his body pressing tightly against hers. She cried harder, gasping for breath, willing herself to scream for help. She couldn’t, she couldn’t move even as she felt him lift her, pin her to the wall and grind himself against her. She could feel his hands on her breasts, under her shirt, inside of her bra.



She felt his erection pushed firmly against her and she felt her vision blur as she whimpered. She couldn’t fight him, he was going to do it again, take her how he wanted, just like he always had.



She was bombarded by memories, emotions, feelings she thought she had trapped away forever were now at the surface again, threatening to tear her apart at the seams.



“My sweet girl.” Muso whispered as he latched onto her neck.



“My sweet Rin, you still taste so good; make me want you so badly. I’m going to take you again, for old time’s sake I’m going to take you again, just like I used to, in that little room that was just for you and me.”



Rin’s hands dangled loosely at her sides as he touched her as he pleased. She could see the gun in its holster, it wouldn’t do any good. She didn’t even try. She couldn’t fight him, he would always win. He was to strong.



She cried out loudly as she felt him rip open her jeans, the button popping off with the ruff treatment. She felt him tug at them, struggling to get them down her hips.



It was going to happen again, she thought it was over with when he had left, but it was going to happen again and there was nothing she could do about it. She couldn’t fight him, he always won, and whenever she fought it would always be worse.



Rin gasped as she was suddenly release. With nothing to hold her up she crumbled to the ground unceremoniously, sobs racking her body. Even now, more than twenty years later, she could do nothing but cry.



Muso growled angrily, rage seeping into his face. Getting off the ground he glared at the man who dared stop him.



Kouga growled viciously, his eyes glowing red as he took a protective stance in front of Rin. His growls grew louder and echoed through the warehouse and he bared his fangs, ready and waiting to rip this man who dared touch Rin to shreds.



“You son of a bitch, I’ll kill you.” He roared, rage clouding his mind.



Muso glared at Kouga, making no move towards him and no move to escape.



“Filthy youkai, how dare you come between me and my daughter.” He hissed.



Rin trembled at his words, it was no use, Kouga was going to die now, he shouldn’t have interrupted. He should have stayed away.



Kouga lunged forward, fangs bared, mind reeling with thoughts of vengeance. With his mind clouded and focused on only the task at hand, he never had a chance. He never knew what hit him, he barely heard the gunshots as his body was blown backwards riddled with bullets. He never had the chance to cry out.



Kagome screamed as she came upon the scene, arriving just in time to see Kouga’s body get blown to shreds and land on the ground in a bloody heap. She could see behind him, it was that man, Naraku, he killed Kouga, he was going to kill them all.



She felt her head begin to spin and her body grew heavy. Her vision began to blur as the world grew dark and began to fade into black as she screamed for the only person who could save them now. The warehouse growing silent, nothing could be heard except for Rin’s sobs as she blacked out.



* * * * * * * *



Inuyasha lunged forward, legs carrying him at top speed towards a warehouse in the very back of the alley as his heart beat frantically. He could hear it, gunshots. The thing he heard next worried him the most, he heard Kagome, and she was screaming his name.



He could hear Sesshoumaru quickly catching up as both brothers made a mad dash for the warehouse.



Sesshoumaru could smell it now, blood, lots of blood. The closer he got the stronger it became. He felt his heart beat wildly in his chest as he could hear sobs coming from inside the building. Sobs, gasps of pain, and blood.



Throwing his body into the door he didn’t slow down, but used his momentum to send the heavy door flying off his hinges.



“RIN!”



He could hear his brother quickly approaching, but his mind was too preoccupied to register anything other than Rin’s sobs before he was enveloped in a cloud of miasma.



He growled loudly, trying to pick out the scents of where it was coming from, of who was there other than Rin and Kagome. He struggled to hear the voices in the room; he picked one of them out instantly, one he hadn’t heard in a long time.



*Mr. Minamoto?*



There was another voice, another mans voice, one that he didn’t recognize. He could smell the stench of youkai, but where was it coming from? It was all around them. The miasma was growing thicker, and then just as suddenly as it appeared it vanished, leaving he and Inuyasha alone with Rin, Kagome and what remained of Kouga.
