Chapter 21 : Maturity

Demons! Gods! And whatever! He had survived, he had fucking survived. The two most amazing, harrowing and frustrating nights of his life. Ban had been sure he would die for the agony, encased in his pants, but he had lived… barely.

Now if only Inuyasha would wake up….

A worried frown crossed the Jagan user’s brow, as long fingers ran though the still white hair, as soon as it hit midnight on the last night, Inuyasha had fallen into a deep sleep. Dawn was breaking and the Hanyou had yet to stir. This was not normal. Ban shook Inuyasha, but there was no response. Though he would die before he admitted it, he was actually relieved when Sesshoumaru and the rest suddenly walked into the cave.

The Demon Lord inhaled deeply. “Well done BanMidou, you have managed to maintain my son’s purity.” Sesshoumaru’s smile could only be described as smugly, evil. “However, it is perhaps best if you had a hot bath, your pants look rather… worn.”

Ban growled in response, his worry for Inuyasha taking precedence over his ability to give a snappy comeback. “Fuck that, Lord Stripy, what the hell is wrong with Inuyasha?”

“Yes. This Sesshoumaru is sure you wish to fuck.” Blue eyes flashed in annoyance at the opening he had provided the Demon Lord. Noting the pale hand so gently stroking Inuyasha’s hair, Sesshoumaru took pity on his soon to be in-law, “Fear not for my son, BanMidou, he will sleep the day away, and only wake up at dawn or at noon tomorrow. His Youkai is aligning itself inside him, the longer he sleeps the more powerful he will be as a new adult. Our task is to ensure he gets as much sleep as he needs and is not disturbed prematurely.” The Daiyoukai nodded decisively as he gestured to Jaken to clean the cave.

“You have conducted yourself as benefits and honorable Alpha, and your joining will be held under the light of the full moon. For now however, go to the hot springs and cleanse yourself. We will do the preparations here, and you will be able to at least sleep next to Inuyasha this night.” Sesshoumaru said almost, but not quite kindly.

Ban’s jaw dropped, “Whhaaattt.. you mean I can’t.. not tonight.. bu..but..”

The smirk returned in all its glory, “Did I forget to mention that?” Sesshoumaru asked his voice dripping with false innocence.

The body aching, Ban gnashed his teeth, uselessly. A good retriever always knew when a strategic retreat was called for. Cursing soundly under his breath, Ban stormed off to the hotsprings. The sounds of his pack choking in laughter as he walked pass was definitely not amusing. At the mouth of the cave, Ban slammed his fist against the rock face, and while Sesshoumaru easily dodged, a shower of lichen and insects fell on the humans, ookami and kitsune.

It was definitely childish of him, Ban thought to himself as he left, but on hearing their laughter turn to disgusted splutters, he decided being childish was not a bad thing.

;) :P :D :O

The waters of the hotspring boiled Ban’s tight muscles into relaxation. One hand absently drifted down his hard torso, it stopped just short of its destination. Blue eyes gazed ruefully at the still semi erect member. Ban’s sigh filled the air, as he clenched his fist and moved his hand back to rest at the lip of the pool. He would not take the edge off his desire, he was too close to his goal to accept anything less than the absolute best. Pleasing himself without Inuyahsa to enjoy the process beside him just seemed wrong. Both Inuyasha and he craved adventure and battle; this would at times take them on different mission. So Ban sincerely hoped the feeling of not wanting to take the edge off, would ease after the mating, else he could envision a great many needy nights in his future.

A few minutes later, Ban was glad he had not indulged as the leaves quivered and Miroku, Kouga and the other males joined him in the pool.

The rest of the day was uneventful, as an exhausted Ban, crawled beside his comatose puppy and slept the day away.

In the morning Inuyasha was still sleeping, and Ban was caught between a strange pride at how strong Inuyasha was going to be and his need to see those golden eyes again. Still they did not allow the Jagan user to lie in bed, beside the warm Hanyou. No, Ban had been dragged out of his comfortable bed early in the morning and been forced to undergo the worst kinds of torture.

Grooming by women.

They had refused to let him be, and with Sesshoumaru’s smug and malicious approval, they women had been unleashed on poor Ban’s hair, fingers and toes. It was fucking embarrassing. Still it was not every day one got mated to a much in demand son of the Lord of the West, so Ban went along with it less then graciously. While he had flatly refused to allow them to add colour to any part of him, the women had tamed his unruly hair, and then actually spiked it, into a more controlled but definitely a more GetBackers look from his younger days. His fingers and toes had been waxed, cut and shined, and a whole new wardrobe prepared from the ceremony.

Miroku and Kaede who would jointly officiate the ceremony, had both woken up before sunrise and left the camp area to meditate and prepare themselves. Other then the burst of colorful curses from Ban, the clearing had an almost spiritual yet joyous feel to it.

The area they were in had been turned from a camp into a Ceremonial area. Ban’s eyebrows raised as he noted the rows and rows of chairs and standing area that had been prepared, around a raised dais. Only the trees around them served as walls, but decorated with streamers, flowers, silk and incense, the clearing was a match for any cathedral in the world.

Some distance away, Ban could smells some serious cooking going on. The Ookami had been hunting and provided deer, Salmon and wild boar for the festivities. Sesshoumaru had literally transported the whole of the Western Palace kitchen staff to their humble location. If any had issues with their temporary relocation, they wisely kept silent. The DaiYoukai would earn a lot of points from this maneuver; after all, one thing both Inuyasha and Ban appreciated was amazing food.

The mating was going to be a big one. In the distance Ban could see a few dozen camp fires from guests who were arriving for the event. Sesshoumaru’s son was getting mated, and the Demon Lord it seemed had taken out all the stops, it would be a ceremony fit for the son of Sesshoumaru.

Ban personally thought it was also Sesshoumaru’s way of making up with Inuyasha, and since the DaiYoukai had enough consideration to not try to force them to go to his palace for the ceremony, Ban would go along with it.

It was late afternoon, when Ban’s Youki twanged. It was time.

Inuyasha’s eyes opened. He stared at the canopy of creepers and stalactites above him. He could feel the blood coursing through his veins, his muscles rippled with each breathe. He felt fresh, new even. Memory can flooding back, and his head jerked to the side, golden and blue eyes met and held. Ban did not move as the Hanyou got out of bed and stretched. Blue eyes closed, to imprint the picture of Inuyasha gorgeous and messy from sleep, stretching in all his glory before him.

“BanMido.” Inuyahsa said seductively as he moved slowly forward.

The stool cluttered to the earth as Ban scrambled out of the seat and back away. “NO! We can’t fucking touch until after the ceremony!”

“Oh, come on, I don’t think Sesshoumaru would mind a hug.” Inuyasha grinned at Ban’s antics.

“He won’t, I would. If you think I could stop at a hug, you are out of your mind. No touching until I can actually touch you!” Ban growled, he ached, he really ached. His control was at an end and he was not willing to test it.

Inuyasha sobered, and bowed. “This was difficult for you, thank you.” Inuyasha said it simply and sincerely, he straightened. Ban smiled at him, and that was that. Inuyasha silently pulled on a simple red robe, and in mutual accord they both walked out of the cave.

Based on the intricacies of the event, Ban held back and it was Inuyasha who walked ahead, leading the way as they stepped out into the bright day.

The gang was all there to see him. Shippo unable to hold back, whooped in excitement and lunged towards his guardian. Inuyasha caught the Kitsune easily, he laughed as he tossed the over excited Kitsune in the air.

Once the greetings were over, Inuyahsa looked over to Sesshoumaru who had been standing unmoving to the side. The Hanyou straightened, and took a few steps towards his newly discovered father. Not breaking eye contact, Inuyasha bowed, and straightened. “Se…Um.. Lord Sesshoumaru, this Inuyasha has passed maturity, and stands before you as an Inu Adult.”

Inuyasha dressed in his simple robe, stood tall. He inhaled deeply, and expanded his Youki. The Hanyou began to glow, the red wild power that he had, was brighter and sharper. There was a focus to it that had been missing, and that power now pulsed in the Hanyou’s control. Inuyasha would never have to fear the loss of his soul, he was now an adult, in control of his own power.

Sesshoumaru’s lips twisted into a rare smile, he nodded his head. “This Sesshoumaru, as the Lord of the West welcomes Inuyasha into the ranks of the Inu adults. For your blood, the progress you have made is acceptable.” Sesshoumaru finished.
Inuyasha grinned and relaxed, from Sesshoumaru that was high praise indeed.

“So what powers did you get?!” Shippo unable to contain his curiosity broke into the strange father son moment.

“This!” Inuyasha said with a slightly evil grin. The ground beneath Shippo’s feet suddenly exploded upwards. The roots twisted up and trapped the Kitsune in a small cage. “Hey!!!” Shippo yelled!

“It was my first ability.” Inuyasha said as in response to his will, the roots parted and Shippo was released. “I can ‘hear’ the mature trees, feel them even, and if I make a request of them, they will respond. I can’t hear the grass or small plants, just the big trees.” There was a fierce satisfaction in Inuyasha’s smile, he loved trees, and it felt right to be able to feel them.

“That is a rare gift Inuyasha,” Kaede said her voice slightly awed, “The trees must respect you a great deal to agree to this, and to deem you worth of being their guardian.”

“Keh! I don’t know about respect, but they do like me.” Inuyasha said not really concerned with the whys of it, he would protect the forest anyway, so it was no big deal.

“You said that was your first power, what else can you do. But please refrain from showing me, telling is good enough.” Miroku asked with a wink at his friend.

“You are no fun!” Inuyasha stated, he drew Tessaiga from its sheath and with his claws just nicked his thumb. They watched as a drop of crimson welled out and as it touched the hilt, it disappeared into the sword. Tessaiga pulsed, and the blade transformed, all around the blade of the massive sword, veins of crimson formed and spread. Inuyasha leapt into the air, and preformed a series of deadly strikes. It took a few seconds for them to understand, Inuyasha did not have to transform the sword as before. All the attacks were coming from the one version of the blade, without the need for Inuyasha to telegraph the attack by summoning it.

“If his opponents cannot see him coming, Inuyasha is going to be much deadlier then before.” Sango said with a strange pride.

“It’s not just that. Inuyasha’s blood has merged with Tessaiga, at the moment I cannot tell where he ends and the sword begins.” Kagome said her voice strangely awed, “I think Inuyasha could do this with any weapon, use his blood to make it his own.”

“You are right, Miko. The true power here is that Inuyasha can use his blood to merge with any weapon; he is able to unlock secrets of the weapon that would take the wielder ages to learn in a second. Miko, he could even use your bow to cleanse Youkai, probably with a great deal more accuracy than you.” Sesshoumaru inwardly smirked at the outraged look on the Miko’s face. “For now the strength of his ability to mimic your attack would not be strong, but in time he will surpass you and most other wielders, turning their own weapons against them. This is indeed a fitting ability for my son.” Sesshoumaru smirked rather arrogantly.

Beaming Inuyasha landed lightly on his feet, “Well, one more thing I think I can do, is open the Well at will. I’m not sure why but I think I can do that.”

“It would not be surprising if you could,” Miyoga said in his pompous knowledgeable tone, “Maturity hones and focuses the life experiences of the young ones, into their special powers. The ability to open dimensional doors is something you have been doing for some time. Over the years your Youki would have gather vast amounts of information about opening doorways between dimensions and focused that into an ability.”

“Can you fly now?” Shippo asked, a little apprehensively, he kindda liked having an ability Inuyasha sort of didn’t have.

“Nope I can’t fly. I am physically stronger I think so I can probably sustain my jumps for much longer but no flying. I think the doorways thing is my travel ability, it doesn’t have to be through dimensions, I think I can open doors between areas that are connect, but it will take a lot of concentration and time to do so. So for the most part it would probably be faster to run.” Inuyasha had awakened knowing his abilities, it seemed natural to know what he could do.

Miyoga nodded, “True Lord Inuyasha, your powers are new yet, as with everything they will improve with age and experience.”

“That is well and good.” Sesshoumaru suddenly cut in, “This Sesshoumaru however want to see it. Now!”

Everyone frowned at Sesshoumaru, Inuyasha’s grin got bigger than ever, he had been waiting for the chance. He drew in a deep breath, and summoned his Youki. They watched in awe as Inuyasha slowly transformed and grew. Only slightly smaller the Sesshoumaru, the pure white Demon Dog stood before them. Unlike Sesshoumaru he had no poison in his bite, but his blood could again be used to enhance the power of his teeth and claws.

Sesshoumaru beamed in pride, that his son was powerful enough to transform as a half demon was gratifying. In an instant the DaiYoukai transformed, as well. He spoke to Inuyasha in the Inu tongue, “Before you are mated, run with me one time, as father and son, run with me.”

Inuyasha glanced and Ban who just smiled back. Turning to Sesshoumaru he woofed in consent, and the two Shiro Inus took off. Side by side they cleaved the air as they ran, the power and grace of the two mesmerizing as the miles dissapperaed beneath their great strides.

The group watched with slightly bemused looks. They would not have expected Inuyasha to accept the invitation so readily, and in human form he would not have. However they were in Inu forms now, and the call of the pack was much stronger and more instinctual. Freer and wilder, unfettered by the constraints of both the human and the demon worlds, Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru both felt the joy of running with their family.

After an hour the two returned panting and happy. Without further delay Inuyasha was whisked off by the women to be prepared for the festivities.

J :D :# :3

The moon shorn bright in the night sky, the veil of stars twinkled merrily. Torch lights flickered, gives shadows and strange shapes to the surrounding woods. Sesshoumaru, Kaede and Miroku stood in the middle of the clearing, the five hundred of so guests sat in a crescent formation before them, the handful of individuals considered family and a full Inu guard unit stood solemnly behind them. The guests came without weapons, but the family each stood fully armed. Their presence was not just to support the wedding but to discourage any from interfering.

Sango her face stern, eyed the crowd. Dressed in her most formal fighting gear, her boomerang gleamed in the torchlight. Kilala as a long fanged adult, silently stalked the area. Kagome wore her Miko outfit, carrying her bow, with her hair braided back, and a quiver full of arrows, for once Kagome looked like a true warrior. Kouga and his two lieutenants gleamed in armor gifted to them by Sesshoumaru, took an aggressive stance to warn off any potential trouble makers. In his armor tinted gold, with black etchings, Kouga on his own was intimidating.

Shippo though he was dressed to the nines, …was admittedly less than impressive.

Jaken, Ah-un and Rin were all present and dressed for the part. Others that had arrived and stood with Inuyasha as part of his family were Totosai, Miyoga, Jinenji, Shiori and her mother, the half demon teens from the misty Isle and Lynx Demon Buzan, who was bursting with pride that his “Kohai’ had done so well.

Ban it seemed had no one, unless one looked to the heavens, and noted that one constellation seemed to burn much brighter than the others that night.

The steady beat of the drum marked the beginning of the ceremonies, Inuyasha and Ban emerged from opposite sides of the woods, melting out of the shadows. They came forward unarmed, without guards or escort, they were adult warrior demons, and they did not need another to hold their hand as they made their way into a new future.

Inuyasha’s cascading, white hair reflected the gold and red of the flickering lights around him. His red formal robe was embroidered with symbols of the Phoenix taking flight towards the sun on the sleeves, and of dogs in play at the border. Around his right wrist, there was tied one end of a long woven rope of silver and blue, coiled loosely in his hand the rope was two meters in length.

Ban was dressed in a similar formal blue robe, the white embroidery on his sleeves was that of dragons in flight, and on the boarder were twisting, graceful serpents. A blue cloak with white fur lining dropped of his shoulders, with a matching scarf elaborately donning the top of his head.

The met in the middle. Ban crossed both his hands before him. With the woven rope, Inuyasha tied Ban’s hand together. No words were spoken. Having secured Ban, Inuyasha holding his end of the rope, led Ban to where Sesshoumaru and the others stood.

Inuyasha bowed formally. “As secondary Alpha, I have secured the Alpha of my choice. I bring him to you bound by me, so that it is clear, this is the Alpha that I have chosen. From now on, before the heavens, let it be known that BanMidou is mine.” Inuyasha’s voice was powerful, and it carried in the wind.

Miroku and Kaede both nodded, and said a prayer. “So let it be.” Then they turned to the bound and silent Ban. “And what say you?”

“Inuyasha has caught me, and bound me. Never has there been a more willing captive.” Ban moved behind Inuyasha, he lifted his arms and brought them around Inuyasha, trapping the Hanyou’s arms and securing him in his embrace. “As he bound me, so too I bind him. I claim the one who captured me as my mate. From now on before the heavens, let it be known that Inuyasha is mine.”

“So let it be!” the blessings rang out, Youki swelled around them. Ban’s blue and Inuyasha’s red aura glowed, and then merged. A bright amethyst light surrounded the couple. Ban buried his head in Inuyasha’s hair as they pressed close to each other, feeling, tasting and learning each other’s Youki.

Sesshoumaru raised a hand and released his power, the rope burst into a sliver flame, and disappeared; leaving matching wrist braces of platinum and onyx, encircling Inuyasha’s right wrist and Ban’s left wrist. Inuyasha suddenly turned in Ban’s embrace and as was his right, he sank his teeth into his Alpha’s neck. As later Ban’s seed would fill him, now Ban’s blood nourished his mate, preparing his body for what was to come.

Ban’s face twisted in pain, but he did not flinch, he held Inuyasha gently as the Hanyou ravaged his neck. His mark on Inuyahsa would come later, to make a blood claim so publicly was always the right of the uke. Since it was the utmost duty of the Alpha to care for his mate, It would not be acceptable to see an Alpha respond in kind and cause his mate to bleed in public.

Inuyasha withdrew his fangs, he growled in satisfaction at the depth of his bite, licked the wound sealing it a little. He lifted his head, his eyes bright with satiation, his lips coated ruby red with Ban’s blood, the Hanyou’s smile was pure seduction. Drawn by a force more powerful then gravity, Ban lips met Inuyasha’s and the joining was done.

The audience cheered, flower petals, and saffron rice showered in blessing down on the couple. The deed was done, and now the party began.


--tbc---

WEEEELLLLLL… what do you think? This was tough writing cause I wanted a ceremony that did not make either party seem feminine. There is no aphrodisiac or stuff it the bite, it’s a straight up bite. Like I said concepts that I cant really do in a Inu/Sess pairing,… so what do you think please review. Thanks.
