"Half-breed" Sesshomaru voiced, boring his eyes to the half-breed impassively.

"Leave" he ordered, not concerned why the half-breed was in his business plan office.

"Oi, I ain't leaving!" he snarled back.

As Higurashi-san entered the room, she saw Sesshomaru holding Inuyasha by the neck looking at him dispassionately.

"Sesshomaru!" she yelled, "Let Inuyasha go!" Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes at her tone. Releasing his hold, the half-breed went sprawling down hard onto the floor. He watched Higurashi-san run towards the half-breed with worry and reached to touch his neck.

"I'm fine" the half-breed said roughly, swatting her hand away.

As two more people entered the room, Higurashi-san quickly sent a glare towards Sesshomaru and returned her attention to the half-breed.

"What are you doing here Inuyasha?" she whispered.

"I'm here to visit the old man, so I decided to stop by to see ya." He said then turning his focus to Sesshomaru, "I didn't know you would be working with that bastard." Ignoring the half-breed, he could not understand how Higurashi-san could befriend such a lower being in intelligence and maturity.

"Inuyasha!" Higurashi-san reprimanded, disliking his choice of words.

"Ya, ya, anyways… you gotta help me make up with Kikyo!" He pleaded.

"That's why you came to see me?" Higurashi-san said diverting her eyes downwards. Sesshomaru felt a passing twist in his stomach. Thinking nothing of it, he returned his attention to Higurashi-san who continued to look down. Feeling distaste in her sudden gloom he said coldly, "Get out half-breed," his narrowed eyes followed the half-breed's retreating form. Then looking to her he said, "Higurashi-san, begin."

Higurashi-san closed her eyes and after a pause, she reopened them once again filled with confidence. "Welcome fellow team members," she said with a smile. "I've taken the liberty to look over your company profiles." She looked to the female with straight long black hair. Sesshomaru recognized her from the last remaining Taijiya clan. "Sango-san, you've been working at the front desk for several years now. But, when you applied for stocks and scored high marks on the test, you were not hired."

"Yes" the Taijiya grounded out with clenched jaws and hands.

"Well, your results are impressive and your profile shows you do your work passionately, so you are assigned to stocks." Higurashi-san said.

"Thank you!" the Taijiya replied jumping up from her seat to bow, expressing her gratitude.

Higurashi-san then looked to the male with short brown hair, "Hojou-san! You have been the accountant's secretary for many years!"

The brown hair boy nodded nervously.

"I have heard from a reliable source tell me that you are the one doing everything." She interrogated, her blue eyes seeming to look into one's soul.

"Yes!" he squeaked out.

"Well, you will be in charge of our finances then." Higurashi-san said providing a bright smile to ease the nervousness from the boy. The boy returned her smile.

Sesshomaru had gone over the team members profile prior to their hiring. Although his way of hiring consisted of only attaining the best, Higurashi-san had once again impressed him as she found the best amongst the hidden. He felt his eyes drifting towards Higurashi-san, questioning what she would do next to spark his attention.

"So as a team, Sango-san will be responsible for keeping track and raising the stocks to 20%, Hojou-san will collect data and calculations with the finances, I will recruit only the best and necessary companies that are required for partnership, and Sesshomaru will be in charge of the negotiation and contracts." Higurashi-san said finishing off the meeting.

Already after two months, both Sesshomaru's business plan and team had become the center of attention within the Tashio Company. True to Higurashi-san's words, stocks had risen 20%, her management style had only made the team more effective, and she had built strong stable ties with several companies.

'Interesting' Sesshomaru thought as his eyes continued to betray his control and pulled to the woman that continued to peak his attention.
