Chapter 3
Does he always say that to woman?
In truth seeing the Empress was astounding, but seeing her up close. There honestly wasn't much to describe her, except maybe comparing her to a rose, with no thorns. She had nice sapphire eyes, and long raven hair, pale but rosy cheeks and tan skin.
Upon arriving to the harbor, the men had lined themselves up for leaving the ship, since the disgusting white sails had made them shudder, it probably wasn't too bad to say that they loved the cloths. But of course they would, they picked them out of a wide variety from the many men they had stole from.
As the men walked off the ship, they stared dimly around. The village was not much different from any of the other villages they had encountered on their journeys. But Captain Inuyasha had sent them here and he didn't send them anywhere unless there was something valuable to be stolen.
At the time Inuyasha walked off the ramp that led down to the harbor, he had quickly made his way towards the King and his daughter. He was very unaware of his men following him everywhere he went. However, Miroku and Sango were decent enough to leave him unaccompanied as he made his way to talk with the King.
As soon as Inuyasha noticed the men walking behind him he hissed. "What the hell do you think you're doing?" He growled at them.
"Awaiting your order Captain." They answered in unison, smiling proudly.
"Gee well, as you may or cannot see, I'm going to talk to the King."
"We can see that, Captain." One of them answered.
"Listen, go up to the palace and await our return."
He smiled as they wasted no time in running up to the palace gates, which lay at the top of the hill. He grimaced at the thought of walking up it later.
Inuyasha sighed as he reached the King. "Nice to meet you, King Higurashi." Inuyasha said. "My name is Captain Izayoi, and I'm here to make some arrangements with you." He said introducing himself as he extended a hand.
King Higurashi took the hand without much delay and shook it. "It's nice to meet you too, Captain Izayoi." He exclaimed. "I want you to meet my daughter, Kagome." King Higurashi pulled his daughter in front of him to show Inuyasha.
Now that he was extremely close to her, he'd say she looked just like Kikyo, he probably would have struck at her if it hadn't been for her different scent. It was way different from Kikyo's rose thorn scent, instead Kagome smelled like vanilla and blueberries.
"Nice to meet you too, Empress." Inuyasha said bowing lightly as he did so. "I'm very glad to make your acquaintance."
"The pleasure is all mine, Captain." Kagome replied smartly. "My name is Kagome." she returned his introduction. She blushed as one of the men that she had seen on the ship with him, come up from behind him a push the Captain out of his way.
Inuyasha didn't protest much until he heard the monk's words.
"Will you bare my child, fair lady?" Miroku asked gently clasping his hands around hers and staring deeply into her eyes.
Bye this time Kagome was blushing madly and Miroku had went flying headfirst into the water with one swing of Inuyasha's fist.
"I'm really sorry, Empress Kagome." Inuyasha apologized putting his arm gently around her shoulders. "Please accept my apology." he begged her, before muttering curses under his breathe which awfully sounded like `fucking perverted monk.' But of course Kagome in her daze hadn't noticed his comments, which Inuyasha should've been delighted by, since the women around them sure heard him.
Kagome's skin turned back to it's normal tan colour as she gained the will to speak. She smiled. "Apology accepted Izayoi." she said accepting the apology that Inuyasha offered.
Good. He thought looping his arm around hers and leading her on to the palace, with a pleased looking King Higurashi in tow. Inuyasha smirked as he made his way with her, course he didn't go too long without conversation present on the stroll, which had indeed made the king all the more joyous.

"Dammit, Houshi-Sama!" Sango cried helping the monk up from the water. "You just couldn't contain yourself, could you?!" She yelled at him.
"Listen, I'm sorry Sango!" Miroku retaliated. "If you didn't like me asking women that, why didn't you say so?" Miroku asked throwing his hands up in a defensive manner.
Sango blushed at Miroku's words and even more so when she heard the women around them talk in whispers. She managed to catch a wisp of what they were saying.
The man's dishonest, I can't believe she's still married to him . . .
Than it finally clicked. She and Miroku were husband and wife. Sango stared horrified before opening her mouth and yelling with all the anger she had. "Inuyasha!" she screamed before grabbing Miroku around the wrist and dragging him towards the palace gates. All the while, ignoring the constant giggles and gasps coming from the crowds bustling by them.
The last thought in Sango's mind before she reached the gates was . . .
I'm going to kick that Jackass so hard in the dick, that he won't be feeling anything for a month!

Meanwhile . . .
Inuyasha's ears twitched underneath the white captain hat that covered his obvious white puppy ears. He smirked as he caught onto Sango's angry voice yelling his name, for all he cared; Miroku was probably in the water again. But than something else came to mind. He chuckled lightly. She must've found out. He thought, before smiling lightly as the girl beside him babbled about how she loved the ocean. Her details were quite uncanny.
"Well how do you like the ocean?" She asked all of a sudden, smiling brightly at him. "Well?"
He smirked; he could give a great and quick detail with only a few words, which luckily for him was enough. "I like the sea a lot." He started off. "It's raging waves, swift currents. There's no doubt you'll get an adventure by the time you get to shore again." Inuyasha told her proudly, which showed he had a lot of pride in who he was. "How much do you like it?"
Kagome took her time to answer that question. "Well every time I hear from the men who have sailed the seas, say that they leave the harbour with fear they'll run into pirates."
"Do they now?"
"Yeah, but I would really want to meet a pirate. I've always wanted to." She said sighing. "To feel the wind in my hair, and . . ."
"And taste the salty sea air in every breath." Inuyasha finished off for her, smiling as she looked at him with profound curiosity.
He really does know so much about the ocean. He'd hate it if he had to live on land. Kagome mused as she stared at him with careful scrutiny. He had a rough face but it held certain softness to it, in the eyes. She finally let her eyes settle on his silver hair that was plated behind his back.
"We're here." Inuyasha said interrupting her thoughts. He smiled as she blushed lightly before taking her little hand in his more giant one, before looking around the room and studying which objects would fit well in his cabin. The red vase at the end of the hall would fit perfectly into his decor. Soon . . . the empress will be mine. He thought letting her take the lead since he didn't know exactly where he was supposed to go.
"Through here, Izayoi." Kagome told him pulling him into a large room, with midnight blue walls and paintings of sakura trees painted on them, and a large cherry wood table stood in the middle of everything.
Wow! His mind screamed. The room was nice but not exactly his taste . . . too blue. "There's something wrong with this room." He remarked still looking around. "I wonder what it is." He thought aloud.
Kagome took to looking around the room, trying to figure out what was wrong with her perfect banquette room. "I don't notice anything that's wrong." she stated. "Too blue?" She guessed.
"Yeah, that's it. Too blue." Inuyasha said smiling as he walked over to the table pulling out a seat. "I think you need to mix colours, please sit Empress."
She smiled taking her seat, than again looking around the room. Too true, it's too blue. She thought still smiling. "Which colour would go well with blue?" She asked all of a sudden.
Inuyasha thought for awhile than answered. "White . . . dammit!" He cried whipping his hand to massage his abused ear from under his hat.
"Dammit, Inuyasha!" cried Sango making to hit him again, she probably would've if Miroku wasn't holding her back. "Let go Houshi-Sama, I'm going to skin this jackass alive!"
Inuyasha sighed before getting up and bringing his lips to her ear. "Sango, I know you're mad, but we have to do this. If we don't we'll never get at Naraku. Do you understand?" He whispered into her ear pulling back and letting her digest all the information he gave her. He smiled as she nodded back nonchalantly. "Good." He whispered to her again. "I'm sorry for the Lady Sango's behaviour. She's pregnant and suffers bad mood swings, and thinks I'm her younger brother, Inuyasha. Again I apologize."
Kagome sat there rigid in shock before she managed to say anything. "Uh . . . I'm so sorry, but if it isn't too much to ask. Why did your hand go to your head?" she asked before looking away.
"She gives a good right hook." he answered swinging back into his chair and motioning the too `love birds' to sit down. One was smiling happily at him, the other giving him glares that could've scared Sesshomaru out of his wits, but at the moment Inuyasha didn't really notice a thing besides the food in front of him. "So when we going to eat?" he asked, ignoring the little gasp coming from Sango. "What?!" He hissed at her.
She smiled. "Nothing, My Lord." she answered looking away from him. When we get back on ship, I'm going to get even with that son of a bitch. She thought her smile turning into a smirk. He wouldn't know what hit him . . . literally.

"So how long have you lived here, Lady Kagome?" Sango asked pleasantly, with a smile to go with it.
"Ever since I was born . . . I think." She added, before returning it with her own question. "How long have you been married to Miroku?"
Sango muttered under her breath before replying. "Umm . . . two years now." she turned around content on not letting the girl behind her see the look of rage upon her face.
"Sango?" An all too familiar voice broke the silence around them.
Sango sighed. "What is it, H-Miroku?" she asked cutting in with Miroku before she made a mistake and called him Houshi-Sama. She turned around to look at him as he walked up to her, his face held a look of utter sorrow-fake grief in his case.
"My Dear Sango, I have come to conclusion that I have never asked you something." he told her faking a sigh as he took her hand in his. "So I hereby ask you. Will you bare my . . ." Miroku was soon cut off as Sango's fist collided with the right side of his head, causing him to fall backwards, over the balcony and into the pond below, which lucky for him was pretty deep.
"Damn that monk." Sango muttered angrily under her breath, her fist clenched and shaking before her.
"Sango?"
"Hmm . . . ?"
"Does he always say that to women?"
