InuYasha paced around his cell. He’d come in the first place because he wanted to meet Sesshoumaru. Ever since he was a child, he’d idolized the demon prince. It was actually a bit unnatural. He’d always craved to meet him, longed for it from afar. And now, finally, he’d plucked up the courage to go see him, and here he was in jail. And he’d learned that he was the prince’s brother…well, half-brother. It was too much to believe, when he first found out. But once the shock and worn off came a sense of awe and wonder and then absolute elation. Even more heartening was that Sesshoumaru came to visit him the next day…and the next…and the next for two weeks running. But the prison was getting cramped and his mind had been working on a plan – a plan that required him to get out of this palace.
Sesshoumaru, he had decided, needed to get a life. His prince was everything he’d imagined and more, but he was too, damn reserved! He needed to get out and see the world, to experience life with his own, two hands, not watch it go by outside his window. And InuYasha was developing the perfect plan to let him do just that. He would take it upon himself, he decided, to teach the young lord about everything he didn’t know. Yes, he would show him a life that would blow his mind. He just needed to get out of this stupid prison!
“Oy, prisoner. The prince couldn’t bring you food today, so he asked me to,” a guard called, scattering InuYasha’s thoughts. The half-demon smiled – his lucky day, then. He would be seeing his prince soon enough, he was sure.
“Is that so? How considerate of him.” The guard opened the door to put the food in and all of a sudden, InuYasha was in front of him, a hand over his mouth, claws at his neck. “Now, be a doll and don’t struggle,” he growled lowly. He closed his fingers around the man’s throat, effectively putting him in a blood choke until he felt the guard pass out. He let him drop to the floor and then ran off. Now, to capture his attention, he thought. He sprinted through the palace, heading out to the courtyard where he knew he’d be in clear view of the prince’s window. Indeed, by the time he got there, the prince was already leaning against his window, watching.
“Hey!” a guard shouted.
“See you later, Princes Twinkle Toes!” InuYasha shouted up at his idol, before turning tail and running. Sesshoumaru touched the window and then swiftly hurried downstairs to the gate. His half-brother was running through them.
“Wait!” the prince stayed his guards. “He made complete fools of you, last time.” He lifted his chin officiously. “I will fetch him.” His mother, who was just arriving on the scene, lifted a brow but did not argue. He hurried out into the down beyond the palace gates, following InuYasha’s scent. At the edge of the town, right in the gates, he hesitated, though. This would be his first time outside the town. Stop being such a girl, Sesshoumaru, he chastised himself, and stepped through the gates.
“See, was that so bad?” a voice teased him. He looked up and saw InuYasha sitting up in a tree. Sesshoumaru pulled a small frown.
“I have come to bring you back to the palace,” he declared. InuYasha laughed, grinning widely, standing up.
“Come on and catch me, then.” Sesshoumaru leapt up to grab him, but the half-demon darted away. The prince took off after him. Leaping and bounding, they sprinted through the trees, jumping off branches and springing high into the air in what must have been the most exhilarating experience Sesshoumaru had ever had. He sprinted after the red blur ahead of him, chasing it, every natural hunter instinct of his kicking into overdrive. His heartbeat was loud and fast in his own ears, every sense incredibly heightened, his breathing quick and shallow in anticipation. Finally, he caught his prey, pouncing on him from behind and sending them both tumbling to the ground. They rolled around on the forest floor, each grappling for the upper hand, ending with Sesshoumaru on top of InuYasha. They stared at each other, both panting heavily, eyes bright and lips curled in satisfied smiles.
“Have fun, Princess?” InuYasha chuckled. Sesshoumaru blinked, surprised. Then, almost shyly, he nodded. “See? It’s kind of nice out here.”
“I never said it wasn’t.” The half-demon touched Sesshoumaru’s cheek with the backs of his knuckles, silently marveling at the prince’s beauty. He looks like an angel, the light through the trees creating a halo for him…smooth, pale skin, long, silky, silver hair – much softer than my own – cascading down around us like a shimmering curtain, gorgeous, golden eyes that would make honey jealous of the color. These elegant markings, the dark blue crescent on his forehead and especially these red stripes on his cheeks and wrists…I wonder where else those stripes exist. That soft, sensual mouth…it doesn’t look nearly so forbidding when it’s not tight and constrained. The curve of his jaw, he looks so delicate and fragile, like I could break him by touching him too hard, but with his body against mine, I can tell, he’s all muscle and strength. Lean and powerful and graceful. He’s perfect, like this.
“I have to admit…I didn’t come to the palace by accident,” he confessed.
“But then why-?”
“I came because I wanted to meet you.” Shocked silence. “Presumptuous for a filthy Hanyou like me, huh?” he chuckled.
“Very,” Sesshoumaru murmured, sounding a tad dazed. “But…Why?”
“All my life, I grew up hearing about you. The strong, beautiful, powerful, god-like Prince of the West. And then one day, I was near the palace – I must have been about four or five – and I climbed the wall and peered in and saw you in the courtyard, practicing. And ever since then, I’d wanted to meet you. But…it took me this long to get up the courage to do it.” Sesshoumaru tilted his head slightly into InuYasha’s touch, a pleased rumble sounding in his chest, and his eyes fluttered shut. The half-demon caressed his cheek, his mind scrambling to find a way to prolong this moment. At length, he let his hand drop. “You know…” he began. “I know you have to go back, eventually. But…a little longer out here couldn’t hurt, right? I mean…I could show you the world a bit…”
“Would you show me where you grew up?”
“Well…I grew up wandering…but I can show you where I was born, if you like, and where my favorite places to rest are…there’s this great hot spring…once you get past the bandits…” Sesshoumaru stood, his brows creasing in indecision. InuYasha got up and offered the demon prince his hand, smiling invitingly. His heart skipped a beat when Sesshoumaru took his hand and glided forward a step to stand beside him.
“Alright, then. As prince I should get to know my land anyways, right?” he agreed. InuYasha beamed.
“Yeah.” Still hand-in-hand they walked off together. Sesshoumaru felt his heart flutter with excitement and a slight rebellious thrill. All one-hundred-twenty years of his life had been spent in perfect obedience to his parents, to his role, to social expectations. And now, for the first time in his life, he was casting all that aside and walking away into the forest – holding hands with a half-demon at that. And there was not a shadow of a doubt in his mind that this was the right choice.
