InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Love and war ❯ What the hell? ( Chapter 9 )
Part nine: What the hell!
Inuyasha pulled through the gate of his home and slowly drove up the rounded driveway to the front of his house. he met his brother and best friend standing outside with the other two girls and other people. He got out of the car and Miroku met him halfway.
"Looks like we weren't the only ones attacked," he said to the man.
"How is Sango and Rin?"
"They're a bit shaken up but otherwise okay. What about Kagome?" Miroku asked as he looked at the girl who was still seated in the car looking down.
"I'd say she's a little past a bit shaken up. She killed four men tonight." Inuyasha left his best friend with his mouth wide open and walked towards the car and the girl.
He opened the door and leaned against it and the car as he looked down at her. Maybe taking her from her home and introducing her to this life was a bad idea but he just couldn't let her go. Especially not after tonight. "Kagome." her head snapped up and she looked at him. he could see the tears in her eyes but she was holding them back. he reached into the car and lifted her out of the seat. She weighed almost nothing and to him it was like lifting a child. She wrapped her arms around him and hid her face under his chin.
"What's wrong with Kagome?" Sango asked as they passed her.
"Sango I'll need you and Rin to come up in about an hour and no sooner you got that?" Inuyasha said to the girls.
"Yes Inuyasha." Rin hid a smile. She knew what Inuyasha was going to do. He was going to rid Kagome of all her fear and sadness in the best way he could think of. He was going to sleep with her. (And no you hentais I'm not going to write a lemon in this chapter.)
Kagome sat up as the door opened and waited for the person to come in. She saw Sango and Rin step into the room with a tray of tea and little goodies. She smiled at them as they got closer. Rin's eyes widened as she looked past Kagome and the girl turned to see what they were looking at. Inuyasha was still asleep in the bed.
"Inuyasha," Sango said as she put down the tray and went over to her brother.
"Go away Sango," the man whined causing the girls to smile. He sounded like a ten year old boy asking for five more minutes.
"Come on Inuyasha you have to get up now."
"I told you an hour. What are you doing here?" he asked as he rolled over and opened his eyes. he saw the three girls looking at him expectantly and sat up in bed and the covers slid down to his bare tummy. Rin wondered what else was bare.
"We gave you two hours since you two sounded a bit preoccupied an hour ago," Sango said causing Kagome to blush and Inuyasha glared.
"Fine. Where's that boyfriend of yours?" Inuyasha said as he started to get out of bed. To Rin's disappointment he was wearing a pair of cotton sweats.
"Assessing the damage. I think its best you get rid of all three cars."
"I'll keep that in mind," he said as he headed out the room. He spun around and stalked over to Kagome. He gripped her by the shoulders until she was kneeling in the bed and leaned down to kiss her passionately and thoroughly in front of the girls. "I'll see you later. Don't wear her out girls."
"I think you've already covered that," Rin said under her breath totally forgetting Inuyasha's great sense of hearing. He glanced over to her and grinned wickedly causing her to blush and turn away.
"You think we needed to see that Inuyasha?" Sango asked.
"If you didn't want to you shouldn't have come into my room," he said as he left.
"Oh Kagome I think he really has the hots for you," Rin said as she jumped on the bed.
"Yeah I've never saw my brother act that way before. He was never open with his affection towards the opposite sex. Well excluding me but I'm his sister," Sango said.
"Girls as good as it sounds and feels I don't want to expect anything from him," Kagome said as she fell back on the bed and stretched out.
"Why not?" Sango asked as she began to pour three cups of hot chocolate.
"Because I'll get my hopes up then I'll probably get hurt. It's always been like that and it's not going to change now. All the boys I've dated have done that to me."
"That's just it Kagome. You dated boys. Inuyasha is a man," Rin said with a dreamy look in her eyes. Kagome giggled and thought to herself that he sure was. She turned serious again when memories of earlier came back.
"What's wrong?" Rin asked as she felt the girl's mood change. Sango looked up from her pouring and saw the tears forming in Kagome's eyes. she put down the cup and went over to the girl on the bed. She hugged Kagome and the tears started to flow.
"It's okay Kagome. Just tell me what's wrong and we'll deal with it."
"I can't believe I did that Sango," Kagome said. "I-I killed four people tonight. Intentionally. I didn't want to but they were going to kill us."
"Its okay Kagome. I know how you feel," Sango said as she hugged the girl closer.
"You do?"
"Yeah. The first time I killed a man I was a wreck too. I was throwing up and shaking and stuff. To me it was unnatural and it probably is. What you have to understand is in our world we sometimes have to do things we don't want to. I know you didn't want to kill those men and I didn't want to kill that man too but he was threatening our lives. I know that this probably won't make it any better but think about it. If you didn't kill them they would have killed you and Inuyasha. Now did you want that to happen?" Kagome shook her head.
"Those guys were bad and were going to die sooner or later anyway. You did the world a favor by getting rid of them. They harmed and killed innocent people just for the fun of it and you are something of a savior."
Kagome looked up at Sango as if she didn't believe that and all three girls burst into laughter. At least they were laughing now. Things would be a lot better.
The little boy walked down the hall and tried to make himself as invisible as he could. It really wasn't a problem since no one ever noticed him anyway. He usually roamed the mansion by himself or played in the large yard. This time he had a destination in mind. He walked quickly and softly towards the bedroom. He heard her in there earlier.
He opened the door and saw the girl bending down tying her tennis laces. He debated whether or not he should go in then she looked up and saw him. when she smiled he knew it was okay.
"Hi Kagome," he said as he stepped into the room.
"Hi Shippo," she said as she watched him walk towards her. He was so adorable. "What's up?"
"Nothing. I was bored and no one wants to play with me," he said with a cute little pout. "What are you up to?"
"Nothing really. I'm just about to get some breakfast. Are you coming?" Kagome asked as she stood up and checked her appearance in the mirror.
"I don't eat with the others," Shippo said as he pouted again.
"Why not?"
"Cause no one ever wants me around. They say I'm too little."
"Well I want you around. Come on." Kagome grabbed Shippo's little hand in hers and walked out of the room and down the stairs to the kitchen. She saw the way the men and women looked at her and then the little boy but didn't care. They were going to have breakfast together and that was that.
"What re you doing?" asked a voice from behind Kagome. The girl turned to see her look alike standing there with cold anger in her eyes.
"Going to get something to eat. I am walking towards the kitchen."
"I meant with the kid. what are you doing with him?" Kikyo asked as she looked at the little boy with disgust.
"I repeat we're going to get something to eat. Is that a problem?"
"He shouldn't be here. He's just an orphan youkai and should be kept in his room away from us humans."
"In case you forgot Inuyasha and his family are youkai and hanyous. So if you have a problem with Shippo you have a problem with him too."
"That's different. Inuyasha isn't full youkai. He will become human for me."
"Why would you want him to change himself? He's fine the way he is."
"Don't be ridiculous. He's a hanyou. A half. He's not full anything and worth little to those with power."
"Is that so?" Inuyasha asked from behind the girls. They both turned to see him leaning against the kitchen entrance. "I didn't know that Kikyo."
"Inuyasha!" the woman said with surprise. She didn't mean for him to hear that.
"Kagome. Go in. Breakfast is ready. Kikyo I think you and I need to talk. It's about time we end this relationship between us."
Kagome held Shippo's hand and walked towards the kitchen. She turned back and saw the look of pure anger and hatred in Kikyo's eyes. somehow she knew that it wasn't over.
Rin slipped on her jeans and buttoned them. She couldn't believe she had just done what she did. She looked down at the sleeping man and shrugged on her shirt. She had to get out of there as soon as possible. Not even bothering with putting on her shoes, she ran out of the bedroom as quickly as she could. When she got to her bedroom she closed the door and headed for her bathroom. She needed to take a bath. She had to sort out in her mind what had happened.
She turned on the water and tested it to see if the water was at the right temperature and let it fill the tub. She began to undress then looked at herself in the mirror. She seemed normal enough on the outside but inside she could feel that she was different. She knew that she was being paranoid and over reacting a bit but she couldn't help it. Tying her hair, she turned off the water and stepped into the tub. Sighing at the feeling she sank down in the tub and leaned her head against the edge and closed her eyes. in her head she went over to events of the night before.
*Flashback*
After they had consoled Kagome, Rin and Sango left the room and split up. Sango had spotted Miroku in the hall and they both disappeared. Rin had no doubt in her mind what they were busy doing. Alone now, Rin headed to the kitchen to grab a bite to eat. Since she had come to the mansion she had never really been alone except to sleep and now she was at a bit of a loss as to what to do to keep herself entertained. She searched through the refrigerator and settled on cold pizza and a beer. She grinned thinking how no one knew she ate like this but it was late and no one was really around. Sure there were a few of the men walking about but none of them really bothered her.
She grabbed up what she was going to munch on and headed for the tv room. She settled on the couch and switched on the tv. As she nibbled on the pizza, she flipped through the channels trying to find something to watch. She settled on a horror movie. She loved them with a passion although they scared the hell out of her. Halfway through the movie, a figured appeared in the doorway.
"Oh shit!" Rin screamed and pulled a gun out of no where.
"Calm down," a voice said with a little chuckle. Sesshomaru stepped into the room and the light from the tv made him look even more like the demon he was. "It's only me."
"What the hell are you thinking scaring me like that?" Rin asked as she put the gun on the coffee table.
"I didn't mean to scare you," he said as he took a seat beside her on the couch. "Saw the tv light when I came in and came to see who was still up."
"Been out," she said softly. 'duh Rin,' she thought. 'What did you think.' she was nervous. she had never really been alone with Sesshomaru and he was just so damn sexy sometimes.
"Yeah had a date," he said as he swiped a slice of her pizza. He noticed she got silent and tensed. It was the mention of his date. He sighed. "If it makes you feel any better it sucked."
"Why should it make me feel better? Your love life has nothing to do with me." In her head she was cursing him and calling him every foul name she could think of. Here she was totally in love with this man and he was still dating...and no doubt fucking....other women. She turned away from him and looked at the tv screen. Well fine if that was the way it was supposed to be.
"Rin I think we need to talk about our relationship," he began but she cut him off.
"We don't have a relationship," she snapped.
"Let me talk okay. I like you and I know you like me but I don't think its gonna work. At first I was all for it but as I thought about it, I realized it would be a bad idea for us to become a couple."
"Why?" she asked as she looked at him. she couldn't believe he was saying that. She loved him and had thought that he had at least cared about her.
"Rin, you are nothing but a child. I shouldn't take advantage of you."
"I'm not a child," she said miffed that he would say so. "Inuyasha and Kagome are together and I'm older than Kagome."
"Yeah and I'm older than Inuyasha. I think it would be best if you date someone your own age."
"Sess you're not that much older than I am."
"Rin you're nineteen I'm twenty-nine. I'd say that I'm much older than you."
"Well those are nothing but years."
"And experience. You don't have the life experience that I do and I think that's what you need before we consider being together."
"By life experience do you mean sexual experience," she said as she crawled over to him and straddled his lap. "Because if that is what you mean I could show you just what I have experienced and what we could experience together."
"Rin what are you doing?" Sesshomaru asked as the girl began to unbutton his shirt. He grabbed her hands to stop her. "Didn't you hear a word I said."
"Oh I heard them. I just don't believe them. You know you don't have to be scared to be with me," she said as she pulled her hands from his grip. She figured if he didn't want her unbuttoning his clothes she'd do her own.
"I'm not scared to be with you," Sesshomaru said as he followed her tiny hands as she began to unbutton her blouse. With every inch of skin revealed his mouth watered more.
"Really? Then why don't you want to be with me?" she took off her shirt completely and flung it behind her.
"I do. I just don't think I should take advantage of you."
"fine. Then I'll just take advantage of you." Rin attacked him then planting a kiss on him that would have buckled his knees had he been standing.
"Rin," Sesshomaru began but she cut him off by kissing him again. (Remind you of someone?) He wanted to fight it. He tried. He really did believe he would be robbing her of her childhood if he took her as his own but she wasn't making it easier on him. finally submitting to his feelings Sesshomaru wrapped his arms around Rin and lifted her as he stood.
"Sesshomaru?" Rin asked as she broke the kiss. She looked at him in confusion.
"You started this now I'm going to finish it." Sesshomaru carried Rin all the way up to his room and shut the door behind him. he placed Rin at the foot of the bed and got rid of their clothes quickly. His eyes scanned her body and he grinned wickedly. He was the one to initiate the kiss this time and knew he surprised her with his passion and ardor.
He lifted her again liking the feel of her smooth baby soft skin and lay her on the bed. He came down on top of her and began to lavish her body with kisses. He liked the feeling of her squirming beneath him and thought that he would keep her like this all night. When he was sure Rin was ready for him he kissed her again then plunged deep. He hadn't known what he expected but it wasn't a virgin. In a way he was disappointed to find that she was a virgin but another side of him reveled in the fact that he was her first and he was determined to be her last.
*End Flashback*
Rin blushed as she thought of the night before. She knew she wanted Sesshomaru but she never thought she would be the one to initiate the lovemaking. Now she wondered if he would respect her. She had all but taken advantage of him. he had told her that he didn't want them to be together but she still pushed him till he had no choice but to take her. Still deep in thought about her situation, Rin jumped when her bathroom door opened with a bang. She swung around to see who was intruding and locked eyes with a furious Sesshomaru. Oh no. He did hate her for making him do what he did.
Sesshomaru was ready to kill and his target was the wide eyed girl in the bathtub. He stalked into the bathroom and closed the door behind him. he took a seat on the closed toilet seat and looked at her. He tried to calm himself down, satisfied that she was at least in the mansion. He continued to look at her as she stared back at him. he figured he might as well get this off of his chest.
"Why did you leave this morning?" he asked almost calmly.
"I didn't think you'd want to see me after what I did."
"What you did?" he asked confused. Did he miss something?
"Yeah. I made you take me. I took advantage of the fact that you couldn't resist me and I made you make love to me. I'm sorry. I'm really sorry."
"You left because you think you...took...advantage...of me?" Sesshomaru roared with laughter when Rin nodded. He looked at her face and saw that she was serious and laughed even harder.
"Well I don't think its that funny," Rin said as she crossed her arms around her naked chest.
"Rin you could never take advantage of me."
"But I did. I seduced you."
"Okay I'll give you that but I was willing."
"You don't have to say that. We'll just forget this ever happened and go our separate ways. I'll understand if you want to date other people because I'll do the same thing." after the words had already left her mouth, Rin realized that might have been the wrong thing to say when she saw a hint of red in his eyes.
Sesshomaru walked over to the tub and pulled her out. He took her over to the mirror where she could see herself. "you see the mark on your neck? That means you're mine and only mine. You're my mate Rin and no one but me can have you or I'll kill them."
"Your mate?" Rin asked. she was too shocked to say much. She knew to dog demons mates were like husband and wife.
"Yes mate. You wanted me now you have me...forever. You're mine Rin. Only mine."
"Yes," she said softly. "Only yours." she sighed into his mouth as he kissed her. This is what she wanted. She was his and he was hers. All hers.
Kagome stood completely still and surveyed the man before her. He was concentrating deeply on the task at hand and she didn't want to interrupt. Silently she watched as Inuyasha battled an invisible opponent with his great sword called the Tetseiga. He was so graceful in all of his movements that Kagome thought maybe he was just entertaining her. She looked closely at his face and saw hatred and determination there. Kagome didn't have to wonder who the invisible enemy was. Naraku.
Kagome watched as Inuyasha planted the sword into the ground and bent on his knees with his hands still braced on the hilt. He bowed his head and closed his eyes and even from her distance she could see his mouth moving. She guessed he was either saying a prayer or making a promise. She gasped when his head snapped up and around and he looked directly at her. His face was grim but she didn't see his earlier anger or hatred.
Inuyasha stood up and sheathed his sword in the scabbard. He walked over to her and stood directly in front of her, his face inches from hers. He looked like he was about to say something then changed his mind. He stood back and folded his arms behind him. he looked at her intensely and Kagome shifted under his gaze. She had no idea what he was looking for.
She saw as his eyes widened a fraction of an inch then his face became unreadable again. "You have something in you," he said softly.
"What?" Kagome asked softly.
"You have a power in you that needs to be protected."
"Power?" she asked.
"Come," Inuyasha said as he walked past her. Kagome watched him walk away with curiosity in her eyes. Power? What was he talking about? She followed behind him back into the house and down the hallway. He opened a door to a room she had never been in before. It seemed like an ordinary bedroom. Nothing major but that of course was only the outward appearance. He walked over to what she thought was the closet and opened the door. Kagome watched him press a hidden button in the wood paneling on the sides and a hidden door slid open. She peaked around him to see stairs leading down. He walked on assuming she would follow which she did. At the very bottom was a secret room.
The room was dark and musty. Inuyasha flipped a switch and the door at the top of the stairs closed as the room lit up. She looked around her and gasped. Weapons everywhere. The walls were lined with guns and swords. She even saw weapons that had only been used centuries ago. The room was big enough to hold her entire house. at one end was a shooting range where one could practice shooting and archery. Kagome also saw a collection of motorcycles. She wondered why he would hide these down here but figured there must be something extra special about them.
Kagome was so busy studying the room she hadn't realized Inuyasha took down a sword and walked back over to her. She looked down at the sword he held out to her then up at him.
"Take it," he ordered her and she had no choice but to accept the weapon from him.
As she grabbed hold of the hilt of the sword, she felt a power surge from the sword to her arm and immediately the room was filled with a humming sound. Kagome looked worriedly at the sword then at Inuyasha. He seemed to be looking at the sword with a bored expression. If he wasn't worried then she guessed she didn't have to be. Kagome gasped as she felt another surge go up her arm and the humming became louder.
Her eyes widened as she watched the ordinary sword grow. As it grew so did the amount of power surges and the level of humming. Finally it was almost as large as the one Inuyasha had used earlier and the room was almost noisy. Kagome panted as she felt her body fill with power. With wide frightened eyes she looked at Inuyasha who seemed to be studying her with curiosity, awe and...... disbelief? Finally not being able to take it anymore, Kagome loosened her grip on the sword.
Whatever power had been transferred to her had been drained all at once from the lack of contact and Kagome fell to the floor. It took Inuyasha only a second to reach her and pull her limp body towards his before she fell to the floor and hurt herself. holding her with one arm, he lifted the discarded sword with the other and placed it on the center of the right wall where he had retrieved it from. He shook his head. He couldn't believe it. He had found his mate.
