Chapter 3:
At the training grounds:
Sesshomaru, Kitty, Bankotsu, Jakotsu, Suikotsu, and Renkotsu all entered the training grounds together.
Kitty stood leaning casually by the fence, as the others walked into the middle of the training area.
Sesshomaru said, "Here you are, you are all welcome to the use of this training area anytime during your stay."
Bankotsu nodded and replied, "Thanks." happy to be back to a semi normal training schedule. Sesshomaru nodded and walked over to stand beside Kitty.
Bankotsu faced his men and commanded, "Alright Suikotsu, and Jakotsu, you two will be sparring with me today. Renkotsu, since we can't be burning this place down, you will have to figure out something else to do."
Renkotsu nodded and they all said, "Yes big brother."
Renkotsu walked over and joined Kitty. Sesshomaru looked at Kitty and stated, "I will be in my office if you need anything. Have Kagome or Rin show you to the office if needed."
Kitty nodded and said, "Alright. Thanks Sesshu." He nodded and walked towards the castle and his office. Kitty noticed Renkotsu was standing beside her and asked, "What's up Ren?"
Renkotsu replied, "Just wondering how you are doing?" trying to play it cool.
Kitty gave a small smile and teased, "Now don't tell me you were worried about me?"
Renkotsu stared at her a minute and then nodded. Kitty's eyes widened in shock a minute, and then she teased, "Gee, and here I thought you couldn't stand me," with happiness shining in her eyes.
Renkotsu cleared his throat and retorted, "Yeah well, you kind of grew on me." shrugging his shoulders carelessly.
Kitty's smiled sweetly and responded, "You have kind of grown on me too. And thanks, Ren." Renkotsu nodded then walked back over towards the castle.
Kitty returned her attention to the training grounds and watched as the man who held her heart, was squaring off against both Jakotsu and Suikotsu at once in strictly hand to hand combat.
Kitty watched intently as her beloved and his brothers squared off against each other. Bankotsu easily dodged Jakotsu and Suikotsu. She smiled as they continued fighting.
Having knocked down Jakotsu, Bankotsu quickly evaded Suikotsu and knocked him down as well.
Bankotsu smirked and announced, “Alright you two. That's enough for today.” They dusted themselves off and stood up then walked over to the railing.
Kitty smiled at them and cheered, “Good show guys.” They smiled at her as they hopped over the railing, and then walked back over to the castle.
Bankotsu held Kitty's gaze as he confidently walked over to the railing and hopped over it, landing next to her. Kitty licked her lips as she eyed his sweaty and naked chest. He smirked and asked, “What do you wanna do now, love?”
Kitty pretended to think a minute, and then grinned and said, “Well first of all, I think you should put your shirt back on before the girls swoon.”
He laughed taking his shirt from her, and pulled it on, before hefting his Banryu as he asked, “What's next, babe?”
Kitty leaned over next to his ear and purred, “Next handsome, I think we should go get something to eat.”
He scowled and asked, “That's what you want?” a little disappointed.
She grinned and added, “For now yes, watching you all spar has made me hungry.”
He laughed and said, “Well come on then, let’s go get you fed.” He wrapped an arm around her waist and they walked back over to the castle.
Once inside, they went to their room and he settled Banryu against the wall, and then scooped her up in his arms and walked down to the dining hall. They grabbed a large bowl of fruit and he carried it to their room locking the door behind them.

Warning Lemon Here!
Kitty laughed as she walked over to the bed. Bankotsu placed the bowl of fruit on a side table beside the bed and looked into her eyes smirking.
She asked curiously, “What are you up to?” He settled her so that she was sitting against the headboard and smiled as he reached over to grab a strawberry.
She raised a brow questioningly at him and he bit the strawberry to free the juice, before pressing it against her lips. She gasped in shock and he sensually ran the strawberry across her lips, and then popped it into his mouth, swallowing it and nibbling her lips clean.
She smiled and he reached over and nuzzled her neck, while reaching for a grape. She giggled and squealed, “Ban.”
He smirked and nipped her collar bone asking innocently, “What?”
She loosened his hair and ran her fingers through it, while he adeptly planted feathery kisses along her neck. He pulled back and held the grape to her lips. She slowly opened her mouth and ate the grape.
She shoved him so that he lay back while grabbing a strawberry and biting it to release the juice. Smiling she slid it across his lips, and then sucked the juice off. He sat up grinning and yanked off his shirt then lay back down.
She smiled seductively and slid the strawberry along his flat, hard nipples covering the areas in juice, and then sensually licked it off; after feeding him the strawberry. He moaned as her slick tongue licked the juice off his nipples, and then she lightly sucked on his nipples.
He moaned and let her hair loose, and then fisted his fingers in her hair, pulling her face to his for a fierce kiss. She returned his kiss, and then trailed her tongue down along his chest to his abs and kissed all over his rock hard abs.
He smirked and began to tug off her shirt and she slid her hand into his hakamas. She cupped her hand along his erection and purred huskily, “What's the matter, Ban?”
He growled and flipped her onto her back in response and his hot talented mouth seized a nipple to begin expertly pleasuring her, while she rubbed her hand along his shaft. His hips bucked and he growled sensually, “Kitty.”
She smirked and he began to suck on her neck causing her to moan. He smirked and growled possessively, “Mine.”
Kitty assured gasping, “All yours. And you are all mine.” just as possessively loving the feel of his hands roaming her body.
He quickly shed her of her pants and himself of his hakamas, while grinning and pinned her arms above her head.
She moaned as he resumed sucking on her neck and with his free hand began to lightly squeeze her upper thigh. He kissed down to her nipple suckling and nibbling it again.
He growled and released his hold on her hands and slid his hands to cup her firm buttocks. She gasped and moaned as she fisted her hands into his hair, pulling him closer to her. He squeezed her butt, and then feathered his hands along her thighs and rubbed her spot. She gasped and whimpered.
He released the nipple smirking and asked, “Something wrong, love?” Kitty whimpered as he deliberately stroked her spot again. She mewled as he slipped a finger into her wet core and moaned at how slick she already was.
Her chest heaved as she panted. Adding a second finger he increased his finger thrusts as he lightly bit her neck. She reached down and grasped his manhood and stroked it. His hips bucked and he growled in approval, loving the feel of her hot, talented little hands on his hardened member.
He removed his wet fingers and licked them clean, and then fastened his mouth to hers in a hungry kiss. She eagerly kissed him back and arched as he slipped his raging cock inside her hot core.
He pumped into her and broke the kiss as he growled in approval, “I love how wet you get for me, baby.”
She whimpered and begged, “Faster Ban.” He chuckled and increased his thrusts, both thoroughly enjoying their sensual dance. She lightly dug her nails into his shoulders, loving the feel of him filling her body with sheer ecstasy as they continued.
When he felt her release coming he pumped even faster and she screamed out his name as she came. He continued thrusting and followed with his own shattering release crying out her name.
After wards he rolled them onto their sides and they panted harshly until they could regain their breaths.
Warning End Lemon!

After they had regained their breaths, they bathed and dressed, and then walked out to the gardens. They walked holding hands and enjoying each other's company.
Bankotsu stopped about mid garden and faced Kitty framing her face tenderly with his warm, strong calloused hands. Eyes full of love he confessed while holding her gaze, “Baby, I was so afraid I would never get to hold you or be held by you again.”
Kitty smiled lovingly and brushed her lips against his assuring, “I'm not going anywhere, love.” He smiled and captured her lips with a sweet and gentle kiss that she eagerly returned. They continued walking with her leaning her head against him and his arms possessively hugging her hip. After a peaceful walk in the soothing gardens they bed down for the night.
The Next Morning:
After breakfast, the women sat around the table chatting among themselves, while the men went into Sesshomaru's office to discuss ‘pressing matters’ and the kids were outside playing under the stern eye of Jaken, who had been warned should any harm befall the kids he would forfeit his life.
Kagome and Kitty were discussing how Sesshomaru had proposed to Kagome.
--
Flash Back:
Kagome was once again enjoying the gardens while thinking about all that had happened lately.
Sesshomaru's deep baritone rang slightly amused, “So it is in these gardens once again I find you, eh little miko?”
No longer offended at the endearment, Kagome smiled and nodded. “So what were you contemplating this time?” he asked genuinely curious.
“About how deeply in love with you I am.” she answered snaking her arms around his chest.
He smirked as he replied, “Is that so?” liking the answer.
Smiling at the demon she loved with all her heart, she answered, “Yes.”
Wrapping his arms around her waist possessively and pulling her body flush against his, he captured her lips in a passion filled kiss; which the young woman eagerly returned.
Pulling back before his little temptress could work her magic and make him loose his control, he smiled and asked, “Enough to become this Sesshomaru's one and only mate?”
Kagome's face split into a brilliant smile as she asked eagerly, “Are you serious, Sesshu?”
Sesshomaru mock scowled at her, chiding lightly, “The Sesshomaru does nothing unless it is serious. Your answer my little Miko?”
Eyes watering she threw her arms around his neck saying happily, “Yes!” jumping up and down excitedly.
Sesshomaru's normally stoic face held his first genuine smile in months and he growled possessively, “Good little miko, because this Sesshomaru has no intention of ever letting you go.” before lowering his head and nuzzling her neck affectionately.

Kitty smiled saying, “How romantic, Kagome.” genuinely happy for her friend and soon to be sister in law. Kagome blushed cutely.
Sango announced, “Well that's two of us now. Kikyo and Inu are planning to mate as well.” turning to Kitty she asked, “So Koneko, when are you and Bankotsu going to tie the knot?”
Kitty laughed saying, “While it would be nice, but it isn't necessary. We know that we love one another and everyone else knows it as well. That's enough for me. I don't need the trimmings.” with a huge smile and a voice filled with confidence.
Bankotsu and the men walked in catching the end of the conversation. Smiling at Kitty's answer, Bankotsu knew that he would just have to persuade Kitty to change her mind. “She deserves nothing but the best and by damn, I am gonna be the one to make sure she gets it! With all the trimmings- Marriage, kids, the whole nine yards! My woman will get everything she needs and want for nothing!” he thought determinedly.
With a satisfied smirk plastered on his handsome face he walked behind her and draped his arms around her shoulders kissing the top of her head, saying, “Hey, baby.”
She smiled saying, “Hello, babe. Didja have fun?” Bankotsu nodded and sat beside her, leaving one muscular arm draped casually around her shoulder. Smiling she leaned into him savoring being held by the man she loved.
After while Bankotsu stood up and announced that he and his men were going to the training grounds and walked up to his and Kitty's room long enough to retrieve Banryu.
He walked outside with his men, who had retrieved their weapons, and walked over towards the training grounds.
Kitty, Sango, Miroku, and Kohaku had all already walked over and eagerly anticipated watching their trainings.
Spotting them Bankotsu laughed saying, “I figured I would find you here, love.” while brushing his lips against Kitty's cheek.
She smiled replying, “You know it.” eager to watch them, since she still couldn’t participate yet.
Bankotsu laughed, and looking at the others, stated amused, “The rest of you though, were unexpected.” with a smile.
Sango grinned and remarked, “Well I am curious as well to what you men do to prepare for battle so differently from us 'slayers.' “
Taking off his haori, Bankotsu smirked retorting, “Prepare to be amazed then.” Everyone laughed and Kohaku smiled.
Bankotsu hopped over the fence and lifted Banryu long enough to embed its sharp blade deep into the earthen soil.
Facing his men he ordered, “Ren, you get in here today too. For starters, it will be hand to hand.” Not happy Renkotsu obligingly did as bid and everyone placed their weapons on the ground.
Bankotsu walked confidently to the middle of the grounds and began issuing orders for matches and specifics.
After two hours of practice, the others were dripping with sweat and had difficulty breathing, so Bankotsu generously allowed them a bit of a breather while he walked over picking up Banryu, winking at Kitty and walked back to the middle.
Making sure no others were in the way, he began going through various routines with Banryu swinging it expertly in many different posses. Kitty's eyes watched his moves with pride and adoration.
An hour later Bankotsu wiped the sweat from his brow and placed Banryu safely against the fence while he got a drink.
Kohaku asked slightly nervously if Bankotsu would mind him joining in a little on the next set of weaponless maneuvers. Grinning Bankotsu answered, “Sure, kid.” and motioned for the younger boy to follow him. Kohaku did so happily.
Bankotsu returned to the middle ordering his men to begin the daily regimen of sit ups and pushups, before getting down to do them with his men, while smiling every so often at his girl. Kitty returned his smiles.
Sango was actually impressed with what she had seen so far, as was Miroku. Noticing their somewhat surprised looks Kitty laughed asking, “Impressive, huh?” Sango and Miroku nodded smiling.
After another hour or so Bankotsu ordered his men to collect their weapons and spend the rest of the day doing whatever, as long as they behaved remembering that they were guests here.
Hoisting Banryu onto his shoulder he walked back over to where Kitty was standing and grinned as he noticed her eyes were following the moves of his impressive muscles. Handing him his haori Kitty smiled.
He chuckled and sat down Banryu long enough to dawn his haori and hop over the fence, and then heaved Banryu on his shoulder again. Wrapping his free arm around his love's waist smiled as they walked away.
Kohaku was exhausted but proud to have been included. Sango smiled at her brother as they and Miroku also returned to the castle.
After putting away Banryu Bankotsu bathed in the springs and Kitty rubbed out his tense muscles. He leaned into her, loving the way she expertly massaged away the tension. They washed and climbed out, toweling off and dressing.
They walked back downstairs and spent the rest of the afternoon relaxing in the garden and enjoying watching the kids play in the garden.
Rin and Shippo ran over tackling Bankotsu playfully. He laughed and began tickling Rin and ruffling Shippo's hair. Kitty looked on thinking while smiling, ’Bankotsu is so great with kids.'
Bankotsu whispered something into Rin's ear and Rin grinned nodding, and then the trio walked over to Kitty and insisted she play tag with them. Kitty smiled and began chasing Rin and Bankotsu chased Shippo.
Awhile later all four lay on the grass grinning from ear to ear and panting slightly. Kagome walked out laughing and announced that lunch was ready. Everyone stood and walked in to eat lunch.
Afterwards Kitty decided to rest for a while and Bankotsu, figuring that she was still recovering, smiled nodding and accompanied her.
Snuggling happily together they both took an hour long nap and woke up feeling refreshed. As they walked downstairs together they were greeted by a shocking site.
