Inuyasha began working closely with Jinenji to find out what the advisers had in store for him. Over the course of a month he’d been cataloging all of their behavior. They had this idea that he was responsible for the former king, but he was out of commission when the man became ill. He didn’t even know what kind of illness the man had, but he could probably get that information from Tsukihime or Sesshomaru. He chewed his pencil as he listened to the various recordings. The lizard, Bakuri, whom was already on his own radar continued to curse his name and how low bred he was. He was adamantly pushing an imaginary relationship between he and Tsukihime, going as far as to say he might be her bastard offspring, which he laughed about. He’d never understand why the people in the castle seemed to despise her. He smirked as Shouzen began to recount the night Inuyasha threatened him, full of embellishments to the point where now on top of being a bastard hanyou he was a whore.
“As I’ve been saying for weeks, we should tell lord Sesshomaru!”
“Clearly someone must’ve seen him.”
Inuyasha laughed, “He won’t believe you.”
He continued to listen to their rants and ravings. “We need to put someone near him to keep an eye on him.”
“We could place a few guards and have them report back to me.” Shouzen stated. “A security detail wouldn’t be strange for the lord’s…lover.” He growled.
Inuyasha started laughing again, “And now he has a thing for me.” They’d tried placing a man he tortured, Yuu, but the man freaked out when he came into contact with him and didn’t understand why. The conscious mind may not remember but his youkai did. His phone vibrated with a text from Sesshomaru. Asking him to come to the castle. He confirmed that he would and was about to turn the recordings off for later when what they said made him pause.
“Lady Kira sent us information about an inmate at the Rei island prison. Says he knows the hanyou very well and has information for the king.” Inuyasha growled angrily as he listened. “He told her the hanyou is playing a game, like he always does. That the lord is in danger as is the kingdom.”
“Her family owns that prison, correct?” Aomori asked.
“Yes, he said he has information about our lord too and the night 50 years ago.” Shouzen confirmed.
Inuyasha’s eyes narrowed, it was Naraku. They then went on about how they were going to transport the man to the castle. Inuyasha was pissed, they were ruining everything. Sending a series of coded messages to his family members he got on his bike and headed to the castle. He hated that there was so much to shift through in the recordings. But he couldn’t sit and listen all day, so he’d gotten behind and he didn’t trust anyone to help him. Inuyasha found himself going fast as he maneuvered the streets, the chill of the winter air cooling him uncomfortably. Youkai never knew when to give up. His youkai’s wailing caused him to pull over as he couldn’t maintain speed when it was this erratic. He leaned forward on his bike and took a few deep breaths. “I’m sorry…but it’s not going to work out.” It flared in its misery. “It’s not your fault, it’s not my fault, it’s because we’re hanyou and we have a lot of enemies okay?” Inuyasha tried but it wasn’t having it, it wanted blood. Inuyasha clutched at his chest. “We won’t go out like a coward though.” He whispered to himself. “I’ll try my hardest okay. I’ll do what I can but logically…I don’t think there’s much I can do.” It rattled like a coin in a can. Inuyasha felt his chest sting. “God fucking damnit I’m trying!” It flared more when Inuyasha thought about his next course of action. He was tired, he didn’t want to do all of this in order to not lose Sesshomaru. It really depended on the man, if Sesshomaru trusted him he would question the validity of his advisers’ words. He wouldn’t believe the words of a criminal like Naraku, right? His youkai began to calm at his thoughts. But he could always have Naraku killed. It calmed a bit more. It really didn’t want to let go of the king. It upset him to a startling degree. There was the nagging if, in the back of his mind. What if Sesshomaru didn’t trust him? There was a chance this was all a game and he was the one who got played. Inuyasha thought and thought, until a car pulled over with a woman asking him if he was okay.
He nodded and noticed it was Kagome’s mother. “Hello ma’am. I’m alright…just thinking.”
“Must be something big since you’re stopped in the middle of the road like this.” She smiled warmly.
“Yeah…it’s really big.”
“Well, if you need anything just give me a call okay?”
Inuyasha nodded and waved as she left before heaving a sigh. He thought about Tsukihime and talking to her about what was going on. The question was, could he trust her. Inuyasha started listing the Hazukiikka laws. He stopped at 164. “Always take the road least expected.” Inuyasha thought and his youkai went on a rampage in his mind but calmed quickly as he fleshed the idea out. He didn’t know what was going to happen but there was one clear fact that stood out. Everyone had been against him since the very beginning, he’s had to deal with a lot, so it isn’t unreasonable for him to not be able to deal with it. How would that play out though? “Ugh my fucking head.” He wasn’t a strategist, that was more Itoshi’s deal. He could have Jinenji send him information while he disappeared for a while. Inuyasha rested his head in his cold hands. His life was so fucked up.
He looked down at his bike and sighed again. Naraku was an unknown factor, he couldn’t proceed with much of anything while he was thrown in. The recordings had been from a week ago, and he must have been questioned in a different location because none of the plants he planted picked up on anything. He started riding slowly towards the castle thinking about Sesshomaru. The sun was beginning to set, and he shivered as a chill went up his spine.
When he arrived at the castle he was shown in quickly. Inuyasha was taken to a sitting room when Sesshomaru was waiting on him. Inuyasha sauntered up to the man with a cheeky smile. Sesshomaru grabbed his hand, “You’re freezing. Would you like to take a warm bath?” Inuyasha agreed. After some much appreciated attention from the lord Inuyasha was comfortably eating various snacks the servants laid out for them. It was a quiet evening of talking and wandering the castle together. Aomori and Shouzen approached them as they walked around the castle. Shouzen’s eyes darting from the lord to Inuyasha as he audaciously held on to his arm with a shit eating grin. Inuyasha felt his phone vibrate, it was another series of coded messages. Inuyasha glared at the advisers as they spoke with Sesshomaru about something trivial.
They bowed to him and he and Sesshomaru continued to another room. Where Inuyasha saw a nice meal set up for them, with a stunning view of the city. Sesshomaru grabbed something from off to the side, it was a neatly wrapped gift. “Happy birthday Inuyasha.” Inuyasha smiled and felt his youkai wiggle.
“Thank you…” His whispered, completely happy with the fact that the lord hadn’t started singing that god-awful song. Inuyasha didn’t like celebrating his birthday usually, it reminded him of things better left forgotten. Opening the small box, there was a watch inside. Inuyasha admired it, reading the little note inside. Inuyasha chuckled at the cheesy statement. He felt a lot of his worries melt away in this instance. He didn’t have to think about his problems when it was just, he and Sesshomaru. When he looked up at the lord, Sesshomaru was giving him a gentle smile. Inuyasha grinned and covered his mouth. “We talked about that, didn’t we?”
Sesshomaru removed his hand and pulled him flush against his body. “You’re the only person that makes me smile so freely Inuyasha. I simply cannot resist the urge.” The lord leaned down, slowly kissing Inuyasha. Happy to be alone with the man. They ate their meal with flirtatious taunts and teasing before heading to Sesshomaru’s rooms to turn in for the night.
Sesshomaru closed the door to the main room and locked it. Inuyasha thought that was unusual before closing the door to his bedroom just as tightly. Inuyasha was looking at him curiously before noticing the predatory look on the mans face. “Sess?”
“You want to know what’s annoying about you Inuyasha?” Inuyasha scowled at him. “How utterly difficult it is to refrain from marking you.” Sesshomaru approached him slowly. Eyes flicking back and forth between red and gold. Inuyasha felt himself shudder. His youkai wasn’t fearful, but he wondered what was going through the man’s head. Soon the flickering stopped, and gold was left. Inuyasha was pressed down into the bed with the lord on top with a leg on each side of him. “So, tell me my dear Inuyasha.” Sesshomaru began to attack his neck, nipping and sucking. “When do you plan to become mine?” If there was one flaw the lord could admit to himself it was his selfishness. He wanted there to be no one who could take Inuyasha away from him. He wanted the half-demon to be his, completely. Inuyasha’s eyes widened as Sesshomaru pinned his arms on each side of his head, before looking down at him with a gentle look, “Before…I only wanted this because it was required…but if it’s you…I could be happy.” Sesshomaru spoke softly, as if it was difficult for him to say the words. “Inuyasha…I want you to me my mate…truly, fully. I want you to me mine and mine alone.” Sesshomaru grinned before kissing him again, “What is it that humans do when they love? Marriage?” Inuyasha’s eyes got wider, “Inuyasha, is that what you want? Will you marry me?”
Inuyasha felt his eyes sting as tears began to pour from his face. Sesshomaru looked concerned and released his arms. Inuyasha grabbed a pillow to cover his face quickly. He wanted to curl into himself but couldn’t do so with Sesshomaru on top of him. In that moment, Inuyasha wanted to tell Sesshomaru everything. Everything that had been happening and all of his uncertainties but instead he sobbed into a pillow. His youkai urged him to do so but what if it was all for nothing…what if Sesshomaru still turned on them. That would hurt a lot more. Sesshomaru was at a lost for words. He didn’t understand Inuyasha’s reaction. Pulling the pillow from Inuyasha’s strong grasp Sesshomaru wiped at the tears drenching his face. “Inuyasha, what is wrong?” He asked.
Inuyasha frowned looking up at him, “Maybe I don’t deserve this? Maybe it’ll disappear…I don’t know… Hazukiikka 989…if something seems too good to be true….it is…”
“Inuyasha…” Sesshomaru said softly, “You foolish man.” The lord could feel stress rolling off the man in waves. It was heavy and filled the room. “I’m yours Inuyasha. All yours. Do you hear me?”
Inuyasha nodded. The thought of letting him go hurt…it hurt more than anything and he didn’t really understand why. He sat up, hugging the lord around his waist tightly. “I’m sorry Sess…” Inuyasha’s grip tightened and Sesshomaru embraced him in return. “Let’s break up.”

The lord had been found standing at the gates of the castle, utterly shell-shocked. He didn’t respond to his servants nor his advisers. He stood there still as stone with his eyes on the horizon, though his heart beat rapidly. It wasn’t until Lady Tsukihime heard of his state that she came from the library to see her son. He was clutching his hands to the point of drawing blood. All but her were too fearful to touch him, but he moved when she maneuvered him. She brought him to his room, where he sat on a chair in his sitting room as a servant made sure the fire was going to warm him. Tsukihime wondered what kind of fight he and Inuyasha could have possibly had to cause such a state in her son. “Sesshomaru? I will listen if you wish to speak.” He said nothing and only stared at the roaring fire. He himself, still trying to process what had happened. Before he realized it, he was speaking to her. Telling her everything that had happened the night before. From the moment Inuyasha arrived, to the way he left.
“W-what?” Sesshomaru stuttered in shock.
“I’m sorry…” Inuyasha sniffled as his youkai wailed and burned him. Inuyasha stood and quickly pulled his coat on and headed for the door.
“Inuyasha!” Sesshomaru shouted. He never shouted. He blinked and quickly went after Inuyasha. “Where is this coming from!?” He asked, his anger building. Sesshomaru didn’t know what to do. His youki energy lashing out at his surroundings. His beast was angry and hurt. He grabbed Inuyasha’s arm tightly.
Inuyasha frowned and looked up at Sesshomaru, the anger evident on his face but his eyes were sad. He then looked towards the ground and pulled his arm from Sesshomaru’s grip harshly. “I knew we weren’t going to work out from the beginning.”
“What are you talking about? Why are you doing this?”
“Ask your stupid fucking advisers.” Inuyasha growled lowly before taking off. Sesshomaru remained standing there for hours watching the place Inuyasha left.
Sesshomaru flinched violently when he felt her hand on his face, his eyes stung, and he felt her wipe away a stray tear. “Why would Inuyasha do such a thing?” She whispered quietly to herself. It was under her impression that the boy was quite taken with her son. He saw a side of Sesshomaru that the young demon lord kept hidden away.
“He really broke up with me.” Sesshomaru stated after a moment. His anger began to build. How dare he? Who rejected the lord of the west? Who rejected Lord Sesshomaru the perfection of the west? His anger began to dissipate slowly with his mother’s words.
“I can’t make sense of this.” Tsukihime really couldn’t understand why Inuyasha would break up with him. She grabbed a cookie from the platter and nibbled as she quietly thought. Sesshomaru watched her thinking the action odd and childish. “I…don’t think he wanted to…?” She questioned, thinking about what Sesshomaru had told her of their night. “Poor puppy…something must be going on.”
Sesshomaru thought about the way the man had cried. How distraught he looked. How he apologized. His mind then went to his advisers and he felt the anger come back. His youkai was trying desperately to reach the surface, they were the reason Inuyasha had left. Sesshomaru let out an angry snarled that shook the very foundation of the castle. Tsukihime followed him quickly as he left the room shouting orders, his youki lashing out. Tsukihime was worried. She made it to the adviser room to see the four advisers cowering in fear of Sesshomaru’s power. “Sesshomaru, you need to calm yourself.” She stated softly. “You cannot allow your emotion to impede upon your ability to reason.” Her words fell on deaf ears as he approached them like a predator.
“What. Did. You. Do?” He bit out. Fangs elongated, and eyes red with youki.
Menou was shaking, being the weakest of the four, if Sesshomaru decided to kill him that would be it. “What is g-going on...?” He asked, he would at least like to know why he died if he was going to be killed. Sesshomaru only let out a frustrated growl as he struggled to not allow his youkai control.
“Inuyasha…ended their relationship…” Tsukihime stated slowly. If necessary, she would do her best to stop her son from doing something rash. While he was quite powerful, he was still young and inexperienced so it shouldn’t be too hard for her to subdue him. “He said to ask you why.” She finished. The advisers looked at each other.
“That manipulative bastard!” Shouzen growled. “How dare he set Lord Sesshomaru on us like some rabid dog!” He roared in anger.
“My lord, I assure you we had nothing to do with his actions! We have evidence that would suggest he was trying to bring the West to ruin!” Aomori quickly stated looking at Tsukihime with scorn. “He learned of us tracking his behavior and even threatened Shouzen to keep quiet.”
When Sesshomaru wasn’t getting any less angry the four swallowed. “He may have been the cause of Lord Touga’s illness!” Bakuri said loudly. Stunning the room. Sesshomaru felt a chill down to his bone. That couldn’t be true. How could Inuyasha do such a thing? The dragon was at fault, not his Inuyasha. When the advisers realized that he had calmed some they began explaining. Tsukihime snapped when they accused her of being a co-conspirator.
“I hadn’t met the boy until he came to the castle. How would I come into contact with a commoner when all my time is spent here and in my castle? Foolish bastard!” The swear sounded off coming from her delicate mouth. “Touga let you into his head and I will not allow the same fate to befall MY CHILD! All these speculations are borne from WHERE?” She growled angrily. Her own youki filling the room. It’s oppressive and ancient roots making even Sesshomaru’s shudder as it was the power of his parent. “IF I WANTED THE WESTERN THRONE, I COULD HAVE IT WITH MY OWN POWER! I DO NOT NEED TO SCHEME LIKE SOME LOWLY DREGS!” She was so angry. At one point, she would admit, she had been taken with Touga, but he changed and was no longer the same person. Her son was happy, and because of Inuyasha she’d seen him smile for the first time since he was a small child. They would ruin that like they ruined Touga. Objects in the room flew to and fro with her power, before everything stopped and fell to the ground. She took a calming breath and an emotionless mask settled in place. “I have dealt with your accusations for over 500 years. As a youkai it is reasonable that I am able to deal with such, but I have my own speculations that you will answer here and now as I am still the QUEEN of these lands until my child takes a mate.” Aomori and Bakuri looked at her with clear hatred in their eyes. “Did you harass him?” None of them dared to answer her question.
“I did not! Sure, I didn’t approve but that’s not my place.” Menou answered calmly.
“You are speaking the truth. However, those three have not answered my question. Quite treasonous.” She spoke calmly, as if she wasn’t the reason the room was in disarray. Tsukihime gestured to the various documents that now lay scattered about the room. “These are all about Inuyasha are they not? What use would you, who have no business interfering with my son’s relationship, have with Inuyasha’s past?” The three-youkai said nothing, meeting her gaze. “Cast your eyes aside and beg your lives before you dare look at me in such a manner.” Her claws glowed a blinding green. Her poison much more poisonous than her son’s. The youkai’s eyes met the floor with apologies on their tongues. Tsukihime held the title of Chieftess of the Shiro-inu tribe, she was not someone they could defeat directly. “You are greedy. You want to control the Western throne like you did with Touga. I will not allow you to take advantage of Sesshomaru and his naivety.” Sesshomaru balked at being called naïve but growled at the three advisers.
“My lord please, we only want what’s best for the west. The hanyou has a history. He’s the reason your lord father is ill. He was there that night! He was found in the room where Lord Touga was found!” Shouzen spoke quickly. “He may be the key to waking him.” Shouzen was struck across the face by Tsukihime for his use of the illegal word, causing him to scream and beg in pain as her poison ate away at his face. Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes, he didn’t know what to believe. His head hurt and his chest hurt as well.
“My lord can smell lies; you can smell that we are not lying. Inuyasha was Ryuukoutsusei’s favorite child. It is not unreasonable to believe he wishes for the demise of the west! Strike me down if I tell a lie!”
Tsukihime was angry, she didn’t want to believe that Inuyasha would plot such a thing. The boy was sweet, and she enjoyed teaching him their shared heritage as was her duty. “What evidence do you have of such a thing?” Sesshomaru question. He felt his youkai pace angrily, it only wanted to kill them, Sesshomaru was tired of talking.
Within a few days, three people were brought before him. All of them imprisoned criminals. The first spoke of Inuyasha’s cruelness. How the man tortured people for Ryuukoutsusei and they always caved no matter what. The pain was worse than death. He spoke about Ryuukoutsusei’s 3 favorite kids and what they did to people, how they were groomed to be leaders in the underground. The next one spoke of Inuyasha’s power, that something was wrong with the man. He wasn’t normal and it showed. How he could disappear. How his abilities were unknown, but he always seemed to have something more. He began shaking and tears poured from his eyes, “I wish I could forget ever coming into contact with him…he ruined me….and my organization…he destroyed everything.” Sesshomaru wore a cold mask as did his mother. How could he believe the words of criminals? What creditability did they have?
The last one was heavily restricted. A hanyou himself. When the mask was taken off, the man started laughing hysterically. “I can see it. In your eyes.” His red eyes looking directly into Sesshomaru’s. “He has his claws deep within you, doesn’t he?” He laughed, “You have no intention of believing anything we’re saying do you?” Sesshomaru said nothing and looked at the man. “Let me guess. He took you somewhere you’d never been. He was considerate and different. Shall we say refreshing?” Naraku noted the way the man’s eye twitched. “Tilt-in is such a wonderful place isn’t it. Makes you trust the person that brought you there, huh? Inuyasha is a liar. He isn’t real. He doesn’t feel anything for anyone. He manipulates people. That’s his skillset.” Naraku laughed. “You know, I thought he loved me. I thought we would mate and live happily together…but all he wanted was to see me crumble. You should have seen the way he laughed at me. Mocking me.” Bakuri made a gesture, and soon they were watching an old recording from decades ago. Sesshomaru felt his chest tighten, he didn’t want to believe it but that was Inuyasha in the video. He clenched his fist.
“Did he make you forget your problems? Make you feel like nothing else in the world mattered, as long as you had him?” Naraku chuckled, “Yeah he’s good at that. Finding out what you lack…what you desire…and finding a way to fix it so you trust him more.” Naraku was looking at the ground. “He’s a monster….” He looked up at the cold lord. “I wonder what he did to make you fall in love with him so deeply.” Naraku stared at the lord, “Did he have to do much of anything?” Naraku’s eyes went dark, “Or did he temp you with that sensitive body of his? Flawless, tight, hot.” Sesshomaru snarled at the half-demon who laughed again, “I wonder how much you know about him. Did he tell you about his mom? That got me…the way he cried…I guess it hit me more since I’m a half-demon as well, and we all share that plight.” Naraku paused for a moment, wetting his lips, “I guess the one thing I regret is letting him in. Even now…with this burning hatred I feel for him…I still love him…all these years later…”
“Tell Lord Sesshomaru of his abilities.” Bakuri demanded.
“I’m still surprised you all haven’t figured that out.” Naraku laughed. “Maybe because you’re high class youkai, right? Don’t have time for us lowly hanyou and our quirks. Oh, that word’s illegal now right?” Naraku looked bored as he begun to explain exactly what was wrong with Inuyasha. “We come in percentages. Usually leaning toward human or youkai depending on the power of their parents. Our lovely Inuyasha is what we half-demons call perfect. Perfectly split down the middle, youkai and human half maintaining an even balance between them. Inuyasha is deadly to everyone because of his youki and spiritual powers.”
There were many gasps in the room, “That’s impossible!” Someone shouted.
“That’s why he’s so special. An impossibility come to life. He could kill everyone in this room. No prison can hold him, nothing. Even I only found out by chance. That’s what he used to torture them. I’ve seen it, it’s apparently the worst pain imaginable and many can’t stay conscious. Something special, send him to a war and I’m sure you’d win every time. Youkai can be sealed with spiritual powers so that’s probably what he did to Lord Touga.” Naraku thought about Inuyasha and the times they’d shared.
“The sword!” Bakuri shouted at him, startling him from his musing.
Naraku sighed, “What was it called. Tetsuaiga?” Sesshomaru felt shock run through his body. His father’s missing sword. The sword had been missing for 50 years, it disappeared when they were cleaning up the scene. “It does something weird with his youkai, subdues it or something. I asked where it came from, assuming it was from his father, but he said he didn’t know. My nose isn’t good enough to smell lies so I don’t know. Although his youkai is a piece of work though, the volatile bitch. At least he has something to keep it in check.”
Sesshomaru could hear his heart in his ears. Had it all been a lie? It hurt so much more now. The thought that Inuyasha hadn’t cared about him in the slightest. That he only wanted to bring him to ruin. That he could have had something to do with his father’s demise. He couldn’t trust Inuyasha…and it hurt. Sesshomaru could smell that the half-demon wasn’t lying either.
“Find Inuyasha and bring him to the castle.” Sesshomaru stated coldly. He would hear it from Inuyasha’s mouth directly.
Naraku laughed, “You think you can catch him? No one can catch him. If you want to get him somewhere you will always need a hostage.” He shook his head at their foolishness. “As coldhearted as he is, he does have a soft spot for kids for some reason. Ooh that kid, Mi-chan. Miyatsu? Oh, wait maybe he’s an adult by now, he probably has a kid of his own, you should use them. Eh, probably doesn’t matter. Inuyasha probably still sees him as the little kid he cared for. Inuyasha has a long history with that family.” Sesshomaru glared at the man, and waved his hand sending his men to gather the child of Miyatsu. He wanted answers and he would get them.
