Chapter 1: Being Proposed to is a Humbling Experience
"Miss Kagome, it is time for you to wake up. It is already two o' clock in the afternoon." Kagome's chambermaid called to the sleeping beauty.
"Yes, I know." She replied sleepily.
Kagome was a kind person, caring, loving, even consoling. Everyone in the same settlement loved her dearly. She was truly a wondrous woman, and a wondrous sight. A woman of seventeen, she had long waist-length ebony black hair fell around her face to frame it angelically, exquisitely. She had soft creamy skin, silky to the touch. Eyes of the palest blue-gray, warm compassion, pure, and tender. A body that could make even the most stunning of courtesans look away in shame for their own unequaled physique. It was plain and simple, black and white; she was beautiful, far from it even. She was breathtaking, staggering, unmatched and unparalleled in every way.
Though Kagome was all of this and more, she was still a bit sad. She wished for a life outside the glints and glamour of her small colony. No, she wanted to be more; to become more than just a well respected and lusted after housewife. She would except anything but that. But, then again, whom was she kidding? She was the perfect trophy wife for any man, especially a nobleman. Still, she was hopeful. There was one man that loved her for who she was not what she was. The only problem was that she didn't love him back.
"Miss Kagome?" The maid called again. "Miss, if you are not ready you will miss the ceremony, it is a five o' clock."
"Alright, I will get up now." Kagome sighed.
She hated the fancy gatherings that she was forced to suffer through, after all, her father was the mayor of the town. She HAD to go. It was the honorable thing to do, so she had to do it.
"I hope that this isn't to bold in me saying, but I heard a rumor that General Sesshomaru was going to ask your hand in marriage today." Her maid said.
"Yes, I know." Kagome sighed again.
"Are you alright, Miss?"
"As good as I'll ever be today."
She really didn't want to marry him and wasn't sure how to tell him that. Her family will all be disappointed, yes, but for the first time in her life Kagome wanted to do something for herself. But, then again, Kagome barely did anything for herself. Kagome also knew that her younger sister, Rin was in love with Sesshomaru and he, even if it wasn't much, loved her too.
Again Kagome sighed.
There was nothing she could do, though. She had to marry him; it was the only thing that she could do. Even if it broke her sister and her own hearts, she had to do it. That's just the way it was. Kagome would be lucky, no, blessed by the gods, if she could find anyone remotely as good as Sesshomaru. He loved her and didn't see her as a prize to be won. Hell, he had already won, so Kagome just resigned her fate and lowered her head. What was going to happen would happen, and that was that.
"Miss Kagome, do you love that man?" The maid asked.
"Who? Sesshomaru?"
"Yes, milady."
"I do, but as a sister would love a dear brother. Anything else is impossible for me."
"But, then, why would you marry him if not for love?"
"Who said this engagement had anything to do with love?" she spat out bitterly.
"I am sorry, milady, I didn't know."
"It is alright, I don't blame you. None of this is your fault."
The maid looked at Kagome with pity.
"Please, don't look at me that way, I don't deserve it. After all, Sesshomaru is an excellent man; I am just scared what Rin will think. We all know that she is in love him."
"I know, milady, I know. But, even though you don't think that you deserve it, I do. You deserve so much happiness after all you have done for this town. Ever so much."
"Thank you." Kagome's eyes were tearing now. "Thank you, so much."
"It will be okay."
"I wish that I could believe you, I really do, but I stopped dreaming about happy endings a long time ago."
"You should never give up hope, not when everyone in this town lives for your mere existence. How can you expect us to survive if you cannot? Let people help you. Let me help you."
Kagome cried on her maid's shoulder freely after that. The whole time her maid just whispered sweet nothings into her ear.
"I will be okay, everything will turn out for the best."
"Thank you again. Could you please draw a bath for me?"
"Of course, right away, and I'll get the knew dress that your father bought you."
Kagome smiled warmly at her then went back to thinking.
The maid left and came back twenty minutes later with a drawn bath and a new dress. Two hours later Kagome was done fixing herself up, (not that she needed it).
"Milady, you truly are a sight to see." A maid gasped.
"Yes you are." Another one said.
"So beautiful." Kagome's own maid said.
When she finished talking with her maids, whom she thought of as friends, she went to her sister's room to speak with her. After dismissing all of the servants, Kagome spoke.
"Rin, I want to know how you feel about this marriage." Kagome said.
"Nothing, it is okay with me." She lied.
"Do not lie to me, I know that you love him. The whole household does. Just tell me what you want."
"I want you to be happy, and if that means you want to marry Sesshomaru, then by all means marry the man!"
"I can't believe that is what you want, I know you better."
"That is what I want, take it or leave it."
"Alright."
"So, should we go and meet our parents in the drawing room?"
"Yes, let us go."
They soon left Rin's room and went to the drawing room to await their parents and their younger brother. They left quickly and sped off toward the raised platform that severed as the stage.
Not to far off in the distance, a pirate ship was getting ready for plundering the small town where Kagome lived.
"Captain Inuyasha, we are ready and able to dock when your order is given." Kouga said sarcastically. The two men really hated each other, but were still loyal to one another, weird, but it worked for them.
"Good, Kouga, get everyone ready, we will dock when the sun sets." Inuyasha answered pleased, pretending not to notice Kouga's sarcasm.
"Yeah, whatever."
"Don't be so damn disrespectful, damnit!"
Kouga just glared.
"FEH!" that was the only sound Inuyasha made to Kouga after that.
Kouga left and about five minuets later Inuyasha cabin door burst open. A man and a woman barged in looking murderous.
"INUYASHA! You never said that you were going to steal anything tonight!" The woman shouted.
"She is right! Don't you think that you could have at least told US?!" The boy yelled.
"You can't just go around not informing your main crew about events that are going to happen! For gods sake you told KOUGA and not us!" Sango shrieked.
"How could you tell HIM and not US? We are your most trust worthy friends and teammates who-"
"Sango! Miroku! Calm the fuck down!" Inuyasha screamed.
"And why should we do that?!" Miroku said.
"Because this was supposed to be a surprise for you two you idiots!"
"Why would it be a surprise, Inuyasha?" Sango asked testily.
"It's a surprise because in that town they have the perfect diamond ring I was going to give you for your wedding! That's why! Gods, try to be a good friend and look what it gets you!"
"Oh, we are so sorry, Inuyasha! We didn't know! Wait what wedding? I am NOT marrying that pervert, EVER!" Sango cried.
"Ah, yeah, about all the screaming and stuff, sorry." Miroku apologized, totally disregarding Sango's blunt words.
"Yeah, yeah, you're forgiven! Now pull yourselves together! That town isn't just any ordinary settlement; they have my brother as their general, so it will be hard to break. But not TOO hard." Inuyasha grinned.
"Should have known." Miroku groaned. Sango just nodded.
Every time that they had come face to face with Sesshomaru they were all nearly killed. He was not only dangerous, but also smart. His strategies were amazing and very skillful.
"What do you mean?" Inuyasha said offensively.
"Oh, nothing, let's go, Miroku, we have to get ready to fight Sesshomaru, AGAIN!" Sango grumbled.
They walked out of the room and Inuyasha smirked.
`I am finally going to get back my brother by stealing his intended wives' engagement ring right from under his nose!'
Inuyasha made a thumbs-up motion to himself.
`After all, what he put me through, he deserves everything he gets.'
"Alright men, start the docking procedures and head out!" Inuyasha shouted to his comrades.
"I, I, Sir!" They all shouted back.
"Oh, Inuyasha!" Kikyo, the immoral, to say the least, chick of the ship yelled to him.
"Not now, bitch!" he growled.
"Oh, but, Inu, darling, why don't you-"
"I am NOT YOUR DARLING! Now, get the fuck to work before I throw you overboard!"
"Fine!" she huffed.
Back to Kagome, she was currently in route to the town ceremony with her family. When they got to the landing platform about ten minutes later they were all standing in their right positions and awaiting the ceremony to begin. Just as Sesshomaru drew out the ring Inuyasha's forces attacked.
