A/N: Here is the next part, it took longer than expected because I changed it... but I thought I should end things on a light note before all hell breaks loose. I need your help with the next arc, okay? Names... names for pups. Can you offer up ideas?
~~~~~
Inuyasha was sleeping soundly for the first time in a long while before he felt the presence in his room. Keeping his breathing steady and his body still he feigned sleep. Then in a move so fast even Sesshomaru would be impressed, he had his sword in his hands, fully transformed and held to the throat of the intruder.
What he DIDN'T expect was the unflinching kind eyes of a servant staring back at him. In his half-awake mind Inuyasha could not remember his name. 'Take- tsuke or something like that' almost reluctantly, he withdrew his sword from the older man's throat."Whaddaya want" he snarled, because after realizing that there was no real danger, he was upset that he'd been woken."Lord Sesshomaru has instructed me to lead you to the training grounds this morning" the man replied with a slight bow."What for?" The hanyou asked suspiciously."I'm sure it will be clear once you arrive, so if you would follow me Lord Inuyasha" he said gesturing to the doors.Inuyasha was taken aback with the way he was being addressed. He was so used to the hostility from others that he was slightly embarrassed at the man calling him Lord."Keh- whatever" he said with a slight blush painting his cheeks.Without another word, the soft spoken servant left the room. Inuyasha was lead down a series of hallways until they reached a large courtyard. Inuyasha was distracted by the opulence of the palace around him. Everything from the enormous walls to the well groomed grasses screamed expense and meticulousness. There was a pang in Inuyasha's chest when he thought about how it could have all been his. But if he had learned anything from years on his own, it was that self-pity got you nowhere. Also that you can't change the past so there's no use bitchin' about it. After a second, Inuyasha noticed that the servant man was not with him any longer."'Follow me' my ass" he grumbled as he looked around.
It was empty, which led Inuyasha to wonder why the guy would drag him out of bed just to leave him here. His sense of paranoia kicking in, he put his hand to his sword and extended his senses to the surrounding area. There was only complete silence.But that's what worried him.All of a sudden an arrow lodged itself directly in between his feet. He jumped back and narrowed his eyes at where he knew the arrow came from but could not see anything."Ya gonna come out and face me for real, or hide behind a wall like coward ya bastard?" Inuyasha yelled to his unknown opponent. He knew it was too good to be true. There was no way his brother would blow off years of hatred just like that. No. He had probably had Inuyasha brought here to be assassinated quietly and get rid of him forever. 'Well too bad ya bastard, I ain't goin down without a fight' he thought as he drew his transformed sword. A blur shot out from behind Inuyasha to strike him, but he was quick to block. He used the momentum from his opponents blow to knock him off balance. Then Inuyasha struck out with his claws to wound the man, but he danced quickly out of reach, leaving a small slash across Inuyasha’s cheek and midsection as he moved away.‘Shit” Inuyasha thought, wiping the blood off of his cheek with the back of his hands, ‘this guy is good’.Gripping his sword more comfortably, he relaxed his mind and heightened his senses. His opponent was hiding their aura, but they couldn’t hide their heartbeat. Focusing on the steady beat he waited.Then he heard it.It was just a stutter, an almost imperceptible quickening, but it was enough.Inuyasha’s eyes flashed open and his sword raised just in time to block the strike of his opponents sword. The force of the two swords clashing caused the ground around them to deteriorate and Inuyasha got a good look at his opponent for the first time.And laughed.Holding a gleaming katana in each hand against the bulk of Inuyasha’s sword, was a little girl.She was a little slip of a thing, barely above his waist by his judgment. She had striking gold hair and skin like the soft brown of a deer’s pelt. Had it not been for her severe black eyes, she would have been cute. However, the fact that a mere child was making him use his full strength was completely humiliating.Suddenly she leaped back and began to study him. He held his defense, worried she might strike again. He was confident that he would live, but her speed could pose a big problem. He was so alert, that when she spoke, he almost disgraced himself by flinching.“You fight well hanyou, there are not many, alive or dead, who could stay my sword” the girl said, sheathing her katana as she spoke. Her voice was soft, belying the strength he felt in her attacks.“Keh,” he scoffed, still glancing at her sword, “as if I would lose to a kid...”He sounded confident, but his aura was flaring. A silence fell as she studied him. Her pupils were so large that they seemed to consume her entire eye. Inuyasha was quickly growing uncomfortable under her gaze and suddenly felt awkward about having his sword drawn.“You are ignorant” she stated simply.“What the FUCK DID YOU JUST CALL ME?” he yelled, turning red from embarrassment and anger, raising his sword again.“But you have passion and raw ability. I can see now why my Lord requested you be trained. Get your wounds attended to, from this day forth, you will report to me at dawn on these training grounds. We have much work to do if you are to be of any use to the West” she said in a calculating tone, leaving no room for argument as she walked away.Inuyasha was in total shock. ‘How could she or anybody walk away from a fight so easily? Also… what wounds?’ he thought to himself. He hadn’t felt any damage during the fight besides the few small cuts she had given him. Looking down at his side, where he knew one of those cuts to be, he almost yelped. There was a massive amount of blood staining his fire rat robe; too much for it to have been from that tiny slash alone. He cursed as his fingers flew to his cheek where the other cut was, and found that the cut itself was indeed small, but it wasn’t healing at all. If he did not get his wounds taken care of, he would probably die of blood loss. ‘Why didn’t I feel this? Did I really get killed by a chibi- brat?’ were Inuyasha’s last thoughts before his vision got fuzzy. Before he fell unconscious, however, he caught a glimpse of pale blue hair.o~0~o~0~oSomebody was humming.
It was a soothing sound.It reminded him of the years before his mother’s death, when she would sing him softly to sleep.His ears twitched as he strained to hear the quiet song, but as soon as he moved it stopped.~Woman’s POV~She had heard of him before, heard tales of the hanyou son of the late Inutaisho, half-brother of Lord Sesshomaru. However she did not expect him to be so beautiful…~Earlier~“Shizuko! Prepare your medical station; you will have a new arrival soon” an armor clad youkai barked.Shizuko nodded her assent, but wondered why. They were not in war time right now, so the only patients she was seeing currently were the two boys that caught demon pox and a pregnant inu youkai lady. Demons rarely got sick, and injuries would heal before she got the chance to look at them. Mostly, she dealt with poisons and curses. As she prepped her work table, she thought about who she would see today.A little while later, a group of soldiers walked in.“Think he’ll survive?” one asked jokingly.“Only if he’s lucky” another replied, encouraging laughs from his companions.‘Who is “he”?’ she thought. The soldiers paid no attention to her and continued talking.“I can’t believe Lord Sesshomaru wasted Masa-sama’s time like that, did he really think the half-breed could keep up?” the first one said.“Or maybe he thought that this was a chance to kill him without incurring Lady Kagome’s wrath” the other proposed.“Masa-sama is fighting a hanyou?!” Shizuko couldn’t help blurting out, “But he can’t possibly survive!”The group of soldiers turned as if noticing her for the first time. A cruel sneer twisted his lips as the leader of the group realized who it was.“Do you think you can address me so casually, human?” he spit, the last word becoming an insult.Shizuko flinched and quickly shook her head no, hiding her eyes behind a fringe of bangs. The soldiers simply left with disgusted expressions as her mind reeled.Masa-sama is the pillar of the West, second only to Sesshomaru-sama in skill with the sword. Despite her small size she is actually even older than the late Inutaisho! So why would Sesshomaru put his weaker brother against her in a fight? Unless he truly wanted him to die…‘No! I can’t think about that, he needs help!’Running out to the courtyard, she saw two figures standing across from each other.One was the unmistakable tiny figure of Masa-sama, and the other was foreign to her.All of a sudden, Masa-sama walked away from the figure that had raised his sword.Shizuko hesitantly began to walk towards the cursing figure, when out of nowhere he began to fall.She ran to him just as he hit the ground and realized what had happened. Masa-sama was a breed of dragon youkai thought to be extinct. One of the most interesting parts of the species was their venom; it had the ability to halt the healing process by stopping the coagulating properties of their victim’s blood. Unless you happen to be a Daiyoukai, it is impossible to heal from without the antidote. Masa-sama coats all of her blades in her venom, and looking at him she could count at least three cuts.She struggled to drag him to her Medical station as her mind set into motion. Lifting the heavy hanyou onto the table was extremely difficult, but she was focused on her task. Having situated him on the table, she flitted around the room grabbing different dried herbs off of various shelves. Placing the leaves in a bowl, she quickly ground them to powder with a large stone. Then she reached for a bottle that was stored in a dusty corner filled with bottles and bundles of rare oddities.It was the golden color of ichor and it swirled as if stirred by liquid wind. This was the venom of the fabled immortal Golden Dragons. It was Masa-sama’s venom.It was the key to his survival.Diluting a drop of venom in a tub of water, she took a single drop of the new mixture and added into the dry powder. Immediately the mixture turned into a thick liquid. She put in two drips of honey for texture and ease of taste out of habit before she rushed to his side. Lifting his head, she gave him three mouthfuls of the mixture and applied the rest directly to his wounds.He remained asleep, but almost immediately some color returned to his face. Shizuko let out a sigh of relief.He would live.Looking down at the face of the man she saved, she felt a sense of longing. He was truly a beautiful sight to behold. His silvery white hair was spread around him, reflecting the light and casting a glow over his sleeping face. His eyelashes were long and his lips were full; if he did not have such a strong jawline he could almost be mistaken for a girl.‘Even a male is prettier than me, go figure’ she thought bitterly as she looked at herself in the mirror over the wash basin.What she saw made her cringe.Overly long bangs, stemming from a mop of messily braided sky blue hair, hid foggy grey eyes, deep set in the hopelessly pale white of her face. Two stripes of the lightest green adorned each cheek, only serving to highlight her inadequacy. The markings of a noble inu mocked her as she traced them with hateful fingers.Dragging her eyes away from her shameful face she looked at her body. She was small and thin, the body of a child. This was because she rarely got enough food. Not that she was complaining. The western palace was a million times better than the village she grew up in, where they would only give her the scraps and peelings of their meals. At least here she had her own room and at least one hot meal a day.Shaking her head to dispel the memories of her village, she turned back to the hanyou.He looked so peaceful that she couldn’t resist stroking his hair. When he smiled softly in his sleep she blushed. What was she doing?! A person of her status touching him, even looking at him, that was unforgivable! But as she took in his sleeping form, she felt at peace as well. She began to hum softly as she smoothed down his hair, hoping to keep this one small moment.When his ears twitched, she immediately stilled. What would he think!? She had just been taking advantage of his vulnerability, and now he would be disgusted by her and never want to see her again.Not that she deserved to be seen.As she watched his eyes begin to open, icy fear gripped her spine.~At Present~The lack of sound drew Inuyasha from his sleeping state. The first thing that met his eyes was the frightened gaze of a girl. Her large grey eyes looked as if a storm was trapped within them. He was stunned. Not only was he alive, but he was being taken care of by a beautiful girl.As quickly as she had made eye contact, she looked away. Springing up, she quickly bowed deeply to him.“F- Forgive me for having the audacity to touch your person-- no for even looking you in the eye” she said softly, the acrid scent of fear tainting the air.“Wo- Woah” Inuyasha said, mind spinning from the sudden mood shift, “you’re fine so get up… ya ain’t got anythin’ to apologize for. Anyways what’s your name?”“Shizuko” she quietly answered.“Shizuko,” he repeated, “nice, well I’m Inuyasha. Are you the one that healed me?”“Yes, Lord Inuyasha” she replied.Scratching the back of his head sheepishly, he cleared his throat and looked away.“Thanks then, and -ah- you ain’t gotta call me ‘Lord’ or anythin’ like that, ‘cause I’m really not. Just Inuyasha’s fine” he said, a light pink blush dusting his cheeks.“You are welcome Lor-- Inuyasha” Shizuko replied, her face bright red, “well if you’ll please excuse me...”Without waiting for a response, Shizuko ran out of the room in embarrassment.Inuyasha was at a loss again.Putting aside what had just happened in his mind, he thought about Sesshomaru. He was going to have to see him and demand an explanation for the fucking death match he just had in the courtyard.Springing up from the table he was on, he winced. His wounds were still tender, but whatever the Shizuko girl had put on them was definitely doing the trick. Now that he had gotten past the shock of almost dying, he was pissed as hell! How could that asshole do that? Even for him it was low; dangle acceptance in front of him, only to yank it back.‘Well we’ll fucking see about that’ Inuyasha thought with rage as he grabbed his sword from where it was leaning against the wall.Following the scent of his brother, he went down a series of hallways in the castle. The farther he went, the madder he got, until all he could only think about his brother’s scent and the thought of fighting him. The servants who saw him were worried, but did nothing because they had been ordered to leave him be. Inuyasha finally reached the large double doors of his brother’s chambers. Without hesitation he burst through them, only to stop short.There, in the middle of the bed were Kagome and Sesshomaru...doing IT.Inuyasha couldn’t move. He was rooted to the spot as Sesshomaru was thrusting into a moaning Kagome.Until she saw him.The scream that pierced the air was likely heard across the world.It was most certainly heard by the occupants of the room, even Sesshomaru wincing from the noise.“INUYASHA, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE!!!!” yelled a bright red Kagome, as she pulled the bedding around her to shield her body.“SIT! YOU MORONIC DOG! I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU! SIT!SIT!SIT!SIT!SIT!SIT!SIIIIIIT!” Inuyasha was at the center of his own personal crater.Meanwhile Sesshomaru looked a little too nonchalant about the whole ordeal.Spinning her burning gaze to him she practically spit fire, “You knew he was there didn’t you! There’s no way you couldn’t have known. You just wanted to look all superior didn’t you, asshole? Well you can just count me out of your little testosterone game mister. Now will the both of you get the FUCK OUT OF HERE!”Sesshomaru was floored as he quickly exited the room together with a limping Inuyasha. He had no idea she would be this upset. It was true that he intentionally let Inuyasha walk in on them, but it was to prove that she was his and not Inuyasha’s. Looking back he realized his mistake. He should have realized that she would not have the same instinct as a youkai female, who would have felt the same possessive urge in the presence of another. He mentally sighed as he was left nude in the hallway with his half- brother who was still in shock.“Close your mouth, you look foolish” Sesshomaru said to the stunned hanyou."Oh Kami...Oh FUCK!" Inuyasha began."At least you are not blind” Sesshomaru said with impassive sarcasm.“I just walked in on you guys doing… THAT, and now you’re making fucking JOKES?” Inuyasha spluttered.“Exactly those” Sesshomaru smirked.“OHMYKAMI! Is this hell? Am I actually dead?” Inuyasha exploded, completely weirded out by this new Sesshomaru.Sesshomaru took pity on the boy and changed the subject, “So I presume you came barging into this Sesshomaru’s chambers for a reason?”Inuyasha’s face stopped resembling a fish out of water for a moment as he suddenly remembered his reason for being there.“Yeah, you’re damn right asshole! Why the hell did you send that chibi- brat to kill me?! I thought you were done with all that shit, but I guess that was just for fucking show" Inuyasha spat, the hurt behind the anger was clear."you are mistaken. Masa was assessing your abilities; she would not have killed you." Sesshomaru explained calmly."then why did I end up practically bleeding out, asshole?" Inuyasha returned.“medical attention was prepared ahead of time in anticipation of such an event" Sesshomaru said.His initial rage was now all but completely quelled."So... What now?" Inuyasha asked."now I will retrieve some clothing and go review Masa's report and compare it to my own experience with you. Once we have reached a reasonable consensus of your skills we will assign you a rank and position in the army, where you can improve your skills and raise your status. It will be your chance to gain the respect of the soldiers as well as the West" Sesshomaru answered.Only just then did Inuyasha realize that his brother was having a normal conversation with him.... While absolutely naked.Blushing profusely, Inuyasha muttered, "Keh, whatever."
Smirking, Sesshomaru stalked off, as confident as if he had been wearing the finest silk robes.~Meanwhile~Kagome was completely mortified. She wanted nothing more than to take the two inu brothers and knock their heads together.‘Well it looks like someone is going to be in the doghouse for a while’ she thought, smiling deviously at her plan.~~~~~A/N: Sooooo…. Those were some of my characters…… I know Shizuko seems really whiny and kind of creepy with a huge inferiority complex, but trust me there’s more to her. For Masa I just wanted a badass short woman to, well, be a badass (because I am short, so I’m living a dream). Love ‘em? Hate ‘em? meh? review! Also don’t forget to review with names for pups!!!!!
