Chapter Ten.
The next morning came with its normal brilliance of colors in the sky, Natsuko didn�t really want to get out of bed but she had to go see Lady Kannon before the Lady was too busy to see her till evening. She quickly dressed and made sure everything was in its proper place before heading to her chambers. She knocked on the door before she entered after hearing Lady Kannon permit entry to her chambers. Natsuko noticed that she was in her bed still as she went to where it was proper to be at, knelt and bowed her head. �Lady Kannon, I came here to accept your offer to be your bodyguard.�
�I accept . . . ow,� Lady Kannon stated.
Natsuko raised her head fast when she heard the cry. �My lady?� She looked at her closely and knew. �It�s the pup�s time to come?�
�Yes, my mid-wife . . . hurry, he or she is coming fast,� She whispered, as she grasped the bed covers in her hands.
Natsuko raced to the other room where she was told the mid-wife was at who was sleeping in the chair. �Wake up, mid-wife; the Lady Kannon is pupping now!�
The woman woke fast and rushed into the other room, she started to bark off orders to alert the Lordship of the pup�s arrival will be soon and she started to prep Lady Kannon for delivery of her pup.
Natsuko went to the door and saw one of the messengers running down the hallway. She stepped out and held her hand up as he slowed to a walk. �A message to Inu no Taisho, his pup is being born right now. Now hurry and deliver it to him.�
The runner nodded his head and dashed off in a fast run as the news he had was now great.
Natsuko hurried back into the room to assist with the birthing as much as she could.
~~~~~~~~
An hour later, Natsuko standing by the bed with her pike in hand watched as Lord Inu no Taisho approached the bed of his wife. �Kannon, what did we have?�
�A son, my dearest, a son,� Lady Kannon informed him as the babe was revealed to his father for inspection.
Inu no Taisho looked upon his son as he gazed at his male genitals which marked him male. �A son, to whom I shall name Sesshomaru, but he will be called Sessho till he has reached adulthood,�

Natsuko knew the young prince will be spoiled or would he, that was one thing that the manga or the anime didn�t mention, was Sesshomaru spoiled growing up. This was something that she was going to find out personally.
A hand jarred her from her thoughts as she turned to see Lady Kannon looking at her. Natsuko bowed her head. �Forgive me but I was thinking what young Sessho would look like when he got older.�
Lady Kannon smiled. �He should look a little like Inu no Taisho. He already has some of his features.� She gazed lovingly at her son who was nursing.
�That he does, my Lady.� Natsuko knew the days for Lady Kannon would be regulated to her chambers till the pup was old enough to handle not being by her side all the time and then the nannies would take over.
Natsuko made sure that she was positioned in an area where she could take immediate action if someone entered the room to harm Lady Kannon and yet be almost out of sight if one was not looking.
It was later the next day, when Natsuko�s hand went to her short sword that was within her kimono and started to fade back into the shadows. Lady Kannon noticed what she was doing and became a bit shocked. Natsuko slinked back to her side and whispered softly in her ear before fading back into the shadows.
Lady Kannon wondered why till she heard several voices approaching. She started to become alarmed, as the voices made their appearances within the room - a helmeted warrior and one of her handmaidens.
�I�m sorry, my lady, I tried to get him to stop but he refused,� She cried out to her.
�Natsuko, please unhide yourself, this Yokai will not harm me,� Lady Kannon spoke, as she stood up and started to approach the male. �After all, he is my brother Makoto.�
Natsuko stepped from the shadows from wince she hid and approached Lady Kannon. She sniffed the air and noticed the scent was similar to that of Lady Kannon. �He is related to you. I can scent the smell is similar to yours�, Lady Kannon.�
�Of course, I should smell similar to her. She is my older sister,� Makoto stated, as he pulled off his helmet which revealed black hair. He noticed the look of shock on their faces. �Have you not seen a black haired Yokai before?� Natsuko and the handmaiden both shook their heads. �Well, now you have.�
�Brother, why are you here?� Lady Kannon asked, after she hugged him.
Makoto smiled. �Father and mother are coming.�
Kannon�s smile went bigger. �And they allowed you to come first? That is a change in father.�
�He had no choice in the matter, sister,� Makoto stated. �I forced the issue by going ahead with one of my generals by my side.�
�Brother that was very foolish of you!� Kannon cried out. �You could have encountered assassins on the way.�
�I did and I defeated them, sister, I am not a helpless Lord, unlike the other Lords,� Makoto stated.
"Your right, you�re not helpless, but it can not be helped that you never consider how worried the rest of your family is about you."
�But how can I get my warriors� respect when I do not go out and confront what is out there, sister?� Makoto stated. �I have done this several times and I have never got injured.�
�Not this time around, but the next time? What if they had more than three assassins waiting for you?� Kannon stated. �Then, what would you do?�
"I'd deal with it, and it's not like I didn't have one of the generals to back me up if I was in over my head."
�But what if they killed your General before you learned of them, brother? You could have gotten yourself killed and where would our father�s title go to if that happens? My son cannot be Lord of our family when he�s going to be the Lord of the Western Lands when his father is slain.�
�I doubt that will happen, sister.� Makoto replied. �But, since you insist, I shall take five of my warriors with me on our return trip home.�
�You know, our little brother would be very sad if you were killed by your reckless behavior, brother,� Kannon stated.
�I�m sure Shiro will handle it if I died, sister. I have been training him on the side,� Makoto replied.
"Training him? Not to be reckless I hope."
"Of the ways of the court, he has a better head for politics are a charm that makes others eager to follow him,"
�What do you mean, Makoto?� asked Kannon.
�Meaning, sis, he knows how to handle a political problem better than I could. I am grooming him to be the next heir to our father�s rank, not me.�
"Your cunning like a fox, precise as a serpent, and have the respect of the army, Shiro doesn�t have that."
Makoto smiled and without missing a beat, voiced the word, �Yet.�
Natsuko walked to the doors and peeked out to see several people striding down the corridor. She retreated back into the room. �My Lady Kannon, you are about to have several visitors.�
The doors slid open as several people entered the room. Lady Kannon and Lord Makoto smiled, as Kannon walked towards them. �Mother, father, it is wonderful to see you.�
�We would have gotten here sooner if it wasn�t for him,� their mother stated, glancing back at a young boy of thirty years.
The young boy looked at her. �I got tired a lot on the way here, sister. Did we miss the birth?�
Kannon knew her younger brother had not much stamina for running, which they probably did for the entire journey. �I�m sorry, Shiro, but the pup was born already.�
Their mother swatted Shiro over the head before pushing him aside. �When did the pup come?�
�Yesterday morning, mother,� Kannon stated, as she looked at her younger brother. �A healthy male pup named Sesshomaru,�
�Wonderful, Kannon, at least you birthed a male instead of a female pup, unlike your bitch of a mother did to me with you,� Her father replied, showing his pleasure and then his disgust at his bitch. �So when will we be meeting our grandchild?�
�Soon,� Kannon stated, as she noticed that Inu no Taisho appeared within her chambers, cradling something in his arms and approaching his bitch�s family. �Beloved, my family has arrived to see our heir,�
Inu no Taisho smiled as he went to her side and gave her a kiss on the lips before turning to her family and giving a nod of his head to them. �I bid thee welcome to my castle and I would like to introduce you to our heir to the Western Lands, young Sesshomaru,� Inu no Taisho removed the blanket from around his son and revealed him to his grandparents and his uncles.
Makoto and Shiro waited for their turn to see the young heir after their parents had proper time to coo over the baby pup. Shiro looked over at Makoto and spoke, �He�s going to have a lot of young bitches after him, when he gets older, if he looks like anything like his sire.�
Makoto nodded. �Hopefully, he shall find his mate who will love him for him and not for his status.�
Shiro nodded in reply. �With how handsome his father is, I hope he will not sniff around before finding her. It would be such a shame for him to sniff at other bitches when he has a mate waiting for him at home.�
Inu no Taisho smiled towards them. �He will not be sniffing around, not my son. He will be too busy training to become a Lord and how to properly fight. As for the bitches, he will only take one after he turns twenty-one years old.�
Kannon�s mother spoke up. �But he may find a bitch before that time, my lord.�
�If that happens, then I will be very glad,� Inu no Taisho replied. �At least, he will not take over five hundred years in searching for her.�
�Then, may Kami bless him with finding his mate quickly,� Lady Kannon stated, with a calm voice and she reached over and kissed her son�s forehead.
Lady Kannon�s family stayed for the next month before they headed off, with Makoto with five of their warriors running ahead. Kannon glanced over at Natsuko. �My young brother is very headstrong.�
�Hopefully, your son will not have that in him,� Natsuko stated.
She smiled, as she looked at her son cradled in her arms. �I doubt he will. My son will be a proper young Lord when he comes of age.�
The rest of the year went uneventful, beyond little Sesshomaru learning how to walk and talk.
Stay tuned, the next chapter will be coming soon.
