Child of Mine

Chapter Sixteen

Still on shaky legs Kagome moved through the the place that had been her prison, letting her eyes take everything in. She needed clothes and money. Then she could find a way to start looking for her daughter.

Taking a deep breath she looked around and saw white clothing. They would work for now. It was better than nothing. She would have to go barefoot for now. She kept looking around and coudln't find anything for her to wear.

"Okay...find money then leave. Or I can find money from pickpocketing on the streets when I get the chance." Kagome told herself looking around and deceased she would chance pickpocketing then lingering around here for too long. She didn't want to chance getting caught.

She couldn't afford to get caught when she had to find her daughter. That was her first priority. Her daughter who she loved and didn't know where she was or how long time has passed.

Tears filled her eyes but she pushed them back as she made her way onto the streets, keeping to back alleys and out of sight from people. She would go out more when it was nighttime. She didn't want to be found by heroes. Not when she had been so close to villains. She couldn't do that.

She took her time in the alleys looking into the streets to figure out where she was, seeing one of the run-down-looking warehouse buildings in the distance her eyes sparked. She knew this area. This was Grains domain.

The place where he likes to do his experiments and those who were close to him could come to him for business. She quickly made her way to the warehouse, making sure she watched where she stepped with her bare feet.

Frowning she went to the door she always used when visiting, going to the handle, pulling it up and shifting it so it moved to show a button hidden under it. She quickly pressed the button knowing she would get an answer quickly, as she put the handle back in place.

A few seconds later the door swung open to show Grain, who paused in his cursing to look at Kagome.

"Well...I didn't think I would see you again. You're supposed to be dead." Grain spoke, eyes calculating as he took in her form.

Kagome tilted her head to the side, "Dead...of course he would say that." She had a feeling All for One told everyone she was dead...or something else. She couldn't be sure with the man.

"I came for some information..." Kagome gave him a blood thirsty smile not wanting to make small talk and making the male take a small step back, "I'm looking for Garaki..." The name was spat out as if it was dirty, making the man in front of him hope that the doctor was able to get away from her wrath.

"He is doing some experiments for All For One, over in Tokyo." Grain told the blue-eyed woman, who still had a dark look on her face. The look in her eyes grew at the mention of All for One.

"Give me the address...I will give you the payment later...or I owe you a favor at a later date." Kagome spoke, trying to keep herself calm. She was getting closer to finding out what happened to her daughter.

She just wanted her daughter in her arms and safe, then she would disappear.

Grain gave Kagome the information, and then Kagome quickly left. She gave a soft 'thank you' to the man, not letting the man as her any questions as she ran away. Kagome didn't want to do small talk or talk about what she has been through or where had been.

She was a woman on a mission...and she was going to make sure it was complete as fast as she could.
