InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Snow White and the Seven 'Dwarfs'...Sort of ❯ Kami help me ( Chapter 5 )

AN: Hey, first of sorry about the last chapters format, I just wanted the italic to end at Kaede, but it didn't and I can't edit the stupid thing for some reason, so sorry for any confusion, Kagome didn't dream the whole thing ok? Does anyone know why I can't edit my chapters? Anyway as far as I know because my reviews are screwed up to, and I'm only reading 2 of them, rest won't come up, the parings are still

Ayame- 1

Kagura- 0

Sorry if you voted, but like I said, something's wrong with something, and it's not letting me read all of them. And thanks to whoever reviewed, cause I have a new one but the stupid computer is not letting me read them. Anyone know why about that to? Ok, here's the new chapter, hope you like it. Oh yeah, this should be the last one were they're kids. Next chapter they're about the same age they are in the anime, maybe a little older.

 

Disclaimer- don't own Inuyasha but I have .73 cents sitting on my desk! Wait, now it's .68 cents because I dropped .5 cents off the table.

 

 

(`' That's people thinking now, ok? No more italic, if you don't like it, go away)

***Still the day of the funeral, Sesshourmarus's Carriage ****

Sesshourmaru sat in his carriage on the way back to his home, as his thoughts ran rampant in his head, still keeping his face a blank mask. Normally by now, Inuyasha would have driven him insane, making him ride on Ah-Uh the rest of the way; but Inuyasha was quiet, staring out the window. The young demon slayer had rode with her father, so Miroku was quiet as well. He mentally grinned on why Inuyasha was so quiet. He really needed to teach him how to be more aware of his surroundings. If it wasn't him watching Inuyasha get his ears rubbed, it could have been an enemy that wouldn't of lost any sleep killing him. At least the moron would have died happy. Still, if he couldn't smell or hear his brother near by just because his ears were being rubbed, he could get in serious danger one day.

`And after I have that talk with him I have to have another little talk with him about the birds and the bees. That should be fun.' He studied his brother closely and than Miroku.

` He probably already knows about it, lecher would have told him by now, but just to be safe I will to, even if I have to tie him down to talk to him. Maybe I'll even get Jaken to help. No, that's cruel, even for me. Moving to other matters, how am I going to get through that painting?'

 

***Flashback***

 

Sesshourmaru walked quickly and quietly down the hall he was in once he found Kikyo's faint scent again. So far so good, no humans, and only men and one woman had come down this hall, so he must be getting closer to her room.

`I don't even smell a maid down here, not even someone to help her change. Kikyo must really be sick if she has all male servants, Kami help them.'

He smelled the demon slayers leader come towards him, and saw him appear at the end of the hall he was in. The slayer nodded respectively towards him.

“My lord, I asked around like you asked, and the servants hate Kikyo. She is cruel to them, wants only male servants, is disrespectful toward the healer, a Lady Kaede, and she has some sort of lover while she was married, and still had other men. They all love Princess Kagome from what they've told me, she's kind with them and doesn't treat them like dirt unlike Kikyo. They can't wait till she takes over the throne; they say she will be a ruler that's even better than her father.

Sesshourmaru nodded. Thank Kami the servants like Kagome. They would protect her as much as they could from Kikyo.

Nobunaga would never have married someone like Kikyo, even if that was at stake. The Nobunaga he knew wasn't afraid to ask for help when he needed it, so why not ask for one of his allies, him or King Kouga of the East, to help him? Even the wind demons from the North would have gone to his aid. Yes, many groups hated him, but maybe one or two groups who hated him with such a passion could be someone from the South…

“Tell me, who do you think the most possible group is that could have send Kikyo to him?”

“I'm honestly not that sure my lord, I only kill demons, I'm not very good with politics, it's only Sango who can understand both.” He added with a touch of pride added to his voice.

`I wonder what it would be like to have a daughter?'

He mentally shook himself; it wasn't the time to be thinking like that, and nodded.

“Shall we ask her after we find Kikyo's room than?”

“Why do we need to find Kikyo's room my lord?”

Quickly, Sesshourmaru explained his theory, as he sniffed and followed Kikyo's trail again with the slayer close behind. He turned into another hallway and saw a door at the end of it. He sniffed again her scent was the strongest in all the hallways so far here.

“Come, this is her room.”

He reached out and tried to open the door but it was locked. He was about to kick it open when the slayer stopped him, picked the lock and, opened the door himself. He smiled when he saw Sesshourmarus's eyebrow arch.

“My daughter teaches me the most interesting things my lord.”

`Would my daughter have white hair like mine? Would she have my eyes or her mothers?' He shook his head when the slayers back was turned.

`You don't even have a mate you fool. Think about it later.'

They looked in, “It looks like a normal room my lord.”

It had a huge bed, window, writing desk, closet, all richly decorated. He sniffed again. He could barely smell Kikyo in here at all. He shook his head

“This isn't her room, it only looks like it.”

“Then where is her room my lord?” Sesshourmaru shrugged, “That's what I'm trying to find out.”

`Where is that sluts room? It has to be here somewhere. Kikyo wouldn't even come in here if it's just a decoy.' Since sniffing was getting him nowhere, he tried to hear something; knowing anything would be helpful right now. He blinked when he heard water dripping below them, and smelled a faint touch of oil. He took a step, and the scent of oil got stronger. He walked over to her bed; right were the dripping water got louder and the oil stronger. He carefully sat on the bed and took a long breath of air.

“My lord what are you doing?”

“I smell oil, and it's coming from that book.” He gestured to the book on the table next to the bed.

“…Is Kikyo even smart enough to read?”

“You wouldn't think so.” Sesshourmaru muttered under his breath and reached over to pick the book up. He couldn't, it was stuck to the table.

“I can't pick this book up.” The slayer came over and studied the book lying on the table.

“Maybe you didn't do it right?”

“It's a book, how can you not pick it up right?”

“This is also Kikyo we're talking about.” He reached out to take the book and instead of pulling it towards him like Sesshourmaru had, he pulled it away from him. The book came up and under it was a gear. He put it back the way it had been and the bed started to move down, and another bed started to come out through the wall.

“Coming?” Sesshourmaru asked, having moved his feet so they wouldn't get caught as the bed slid down into the floor. The slayer sat down opposite him, and watched as the bed finally slid out of the floor and the other bed came on top hiding the hole they had come down through. For a minute they were in complete darkness until torches started to light by themselves on their way down. The chute they were traveling down in was made out of dirty and crumbing bricks, that let out a fine dust on them at times as the bed went by and loosed stones and dust. After three or five minutes the bed came to a stop and there was a hallway in from of them. It was covered in dust, dirt, and cobwebs and water dripped down from the ceiling, making puddles on the poorly made floor.

“Well the oil must have been used to grease the machines that helped the bed come down.” The slayer finally said.

“Indeed” the demon lord got off the bed with the slayer following suit and they started to walk down the hall.

“You really weren't kidding when you said we were going to find out all of Kikyo's dirty little secrets did you?” the slayer muttered as he walked through the puddles on the floor, getting mud all over his shoes, and knocking down a cobweb that was about to hit his head. Sesshourmaru didn't hear, or chose not to answer as he sniffed and caught Kikyo's scent, getting stronger down the hall, with a male scent mixed in. As they walked, torches on the wall would light themselves as they passed by until they finally got to the end of the hallway. Sesshourmaru sniffed, and smelling Kikyo there he placed his hand on a stone in the wall and pushed. The wall swung open, throwing Sesshourmaru and the demon slayer on a bed. The slayer scrambled off of Sesshourmaru, bowing and groveling, while he ignored him and rolled off the bed looking around. The room was much nicer that the trip in the hallway made it appear to be. The bed had dark rich purple covers, and a lot of purple and black pillows with black curtains surrounding the bed, with bloody battle scenes on them. There was a bookcase with books, a skull, lizard skins, and a dead baby rat in a jar. There was a huge vanity with a mirror the size of the bed, with jewelry and make-up covering it, a closet was craved in the wall, and a hot pond was in the corner in the room, with bowls of flower petals and perfumes beside it. The room also smelled like sex, with a lot of different guys.

“I wouldn't touch that if I was you, you never know where it came from.” Sesshourmaru cautioned softy to the demon slayer who was looking at a couple of wooden penises in a room off to the side that looked like it was full of other sex toys. He grimaced and looked away.

“Find anything important yet my lord?”

He shook his head, and walked closer to a painting on the wall. It was painted on, and it looked like it was a painting of two angels, they both had brown hair, brown eyes, and a lovely face. But it looked like one was choosing if she wanted to go to heaven, or hell. At the top was heaven but the bottom was hell, and she looked like she couldn't decide which one to go to. The other one was looking up at heaven, and it looked like she wanted to go to heaven but was scared. Sesshourmaru stared at it. It was very beautiful, but also dark and twisted. The hell the painting was showing looked tempting, wonderful with sinister creatures dancing together, and trying to coax the angel into their world. Heaven just, just didn't look the same as hell. It was beautiful, but not as much as hell. He looked closer and saw that the four of the people's heads were buttons. The angels, the devil, and someone who was half hidden by a cloud, or Kami. The two angels looked alike, but they were still different people. He lifted a hand but hesitated on what to do with it. Following what his head was telling him, he gently placed on the devils head. And was blasted across the room. The slayer rushed over to him, “My lord, are you alright?”

He nodded and stared at the painting at the other side of the room.

“Go and look at that painting, are there any barriers around it?” The slayer got up and walked over to the painting.

“No my lord this looks like a normal paint-“ he touched one of the faces and was shot across the room. He sat up with difficulty,

“Then again, I can be wrong.”

Sesshourmaru got up and looked at the painting again. He got up and pushed another one of the buttons. And was shot across the room again. He did this with the other two buttons, but nothing ever appeared.

“It appears you only get one chance to open it my lord.”

Sesshourmaru gave the painting another long look.

“Come, we can learn no more from this room.”

And with that, he turned around and left, not looking behind him to see if the slayer was coming.

 

 

Sesshourmaru got up off the bed and walked to the door after it stopped back up in Kikyo's fake room. The slayer hurried to catch up with him.

“Go get the carriage ready, I'll get the children and meet you out front.” He slowly ordered. The slayer bowed, “Right away my lord.”

Sesshourmaru frowned as he through about what had happened as he made his way to where Inuyasha was. `Why did the painting reject me? Maybe Kikyo put a spell up that only allows her through? This is very bad, if Kikyo can put up a barrier like that, she must be a very strong miko. Is it a good idea to keep Nobunaga's daughter here? I have no choice, but couldn't I so something to get her out of here? No, if it was discovered it would be war between us. Kagome has no choice but to stay here, Kami help her. Hopefully the servants will help her when they can.' He paused outside the room where he smelled Inuyasha was in and felt his jaw drop mentally open. Kagome was rubbing his ears and he was letting her? Did she bribe him or blackmail him? He smelt the salt in the air and figured that Kagome had been crying and to cheer her up, he let her touch his ears.

`At least Inuyasha isn't a complete moron, now, should I be cruel and let him find me here, or be nice and let someone else? I think I'll be cruel today.'

He stood in the doorway waiting for Inuyasha to notice him, but the fool was totally focused on the girl. So he waited some more, but Inuyasha still had no idea he was here.

`Great another thing to worry about, a stupid 14 year old half demon not even knowing when his own brothers standing right in front of him! Something else I have to teach him now too. Hey maybe I found someone I can marry him off to later if he likes her not much!' Pleased by the thought of getting rid of Inuyasha later, he stood there a little while longer until he heard Inuyasha's friends come up the stairs, and using his demonic speed, ran to the end of the hall and walked down at human speed. He walked into the room and told Sango, Inuyasha and Miroku they were leaving, and with only one glance back, Inuyasha left the room. He bowed to the princess, and left also, overhearing what her friend asked.

`I'm asking the same thing of Inuyasha as soon as we get home.'

 

***End Flashback***

He sighed, he'd let Inuyasha rule the Western lands sooner than letting Kikyo get away with whatever she had done to King Nobunaga, and was sure to do to Princess Kagome.

 

 

“- And then you guys came in ruining everything!” I finished telling Kagura what had happened when she wasn't here and she was nearly double over laughing when I got to the part of Inuyasha purring.

“So how do you feel about Inuyasha?” I frowned.

“I'm not sure Kagura, I mean, I just met the guy, and sometimes I just want to rip his head off for being so stupid, and then… I don't know, he changes and I want to stroke his ears.”

“His ears are cute. What do you think is better, Inuyasha's ears, or Sesshourmarus's tail?”

“…Sesshourmaru has a tail?”

“Yea, it's the fluffy thing over his shoulder.”

“…Oh…I thought that was a boa.”

Kagura burst out laughing, “You thought his tail was a boa?”

`Well…yeah, it sort of does you know, how was I supposed to know that was a tail? When I saw it I figured it was a new trend in the Western Lands are something.”

“It's not, it's his tail. I've heard that his fathers was bigger and fluffier than his.”

“Wow…how do you think they wash it?”

“How do they what?”

“Wash it, it must take awhile, and how do they dry it? It's fur, it has to take awhile to dry, do they just carry it around wet until it does, or do they have someone help them dry it?”

We looked at each other and started laughing until tears came out of our eyes.

“To bad Rin wasn't here,” Kagura said, wiping a tear away, “She loves fluffy stuff.”

We started laughing again.

“How is Rin anyway?” I asked as soon as I calmed down.

“I guess she's alright, I haven't really talked much with her, this is the first time in a couple of months that I've even seen her. She looked alright through.” I nodded,

“That's good, when do you have to leave?”

“She needs to leave right now.” I turned around to see who was there.

Kikyo.

Kagura looked out the window to see the falling sun,

“Actually, she's right, I really should get going. Bye Kagome, take care of yourself, ok? I promise I'll come by soon.” She hugged me,

“Ok Kagura, thank you so much for coming, I'll see you soon. Tell Rin if you see her thanks for thinking of me and I'll like to see her soon? Bye”

Kagura gave me one last wave and left the room. Kikyo and I was silent, watching Kagura's feather fly away in the sky. Kikyo turned to me with a wicked look on her face and snapped her fingers. A maid appeared and she said two words that I have never forgotten since then,

“Get out.”

I blinked, `What did she say?'

“What?”

“You heard me, get out, the maid,” she gestured to the maid standing at the doorway, “will bring you to your new quarters.”

I relaxed a little, `Oh she only wants to move me to a new room. Thank Kami, I was worried for a second.'

“Alright.” I said, so I got up and started to follow the maid. I figured we would go left from my room, where more rooms in my wing are. She turned right instead, while I tried to remember if there were any other rooms in this wing. She turned right again, which was a wing that didn't have any noble rooms.

`Where is she taking me? This isn't the noble's wing. What's Kikyo up to now?'

I was so busy thinking that I didn't realize the maid was leading me toward the servant's quarters. I stopped thinking when she stopped in front of a room and I looked inside. It was really small, with one little candle to provide light on a tilted table beside a tiny little cot, with one blanket that looked like the rats had been snacking on. I turned to the maid,

“I'm sorry there has to be some mistake, this can't be my room, not even the servant's have rooms this bad.”

The maid shrugged, her eyes full of pity, `I'm sorry my lady, this is where Queen Kikyo told me to bring you.”

A hand came out of nowhere and slapped me hard across the face, throwing me into the room. Kikyo appeared in the doorway,

“Listen you spoiled bitch, I am Queen of this land now, but I never said anything about being a mother to you, I really could care less about you. So you will earn your keep in my castle, you will work as a servant for food and shelter, got it? The only reason I'm not killing you is so I don't have to hire someone else. You are no longer a princess, and will no longer be treated as one. This is your new room, you will be given new clothes and a couple of things that I will decide you get from your old room tomorrow. And after that, be prepared to work. Got it?”

And with that she slammed the door on my new room, and my old life, shut.

 

 

I tried to sleep on the cot, but I woke up the next morning with a little over five hours sleep, and sore muscles all over. I groaned as I rolled out of bed, all my bones ached, and the blanket wasn't big enough to cover my entire form. I looked around to see if Kikyo at least gave me something to wash my face in.

Not even a cracked plate.

Someone knocked on the door,

“Come in,” I said softly, half afraid it was Kikyo but I knew she would never knock.

The door opened and Kaede walked in.

“Kaede!” I cried out and rushed into her arms. She dropped whatever she had been holding and returned the hug, clutching my closely to her.

“Oh child, ye will be fine. All will be fine in time.”

“Kaede, I'm so scared, what will become of the servants, of my people if Kikyo is Queen?” she chuckled softly,

“Always thinking of others, aren't ye Kagome? Do not worry; when you come of age, she will be overthrown. I've talked to the servants, they will do all they can to help ye. We would overthrow her now, but Kikyo has rights to the throne as she married your father before he died. And she has seduced most of the army and it's commanders. The rest she has threaten death to if they go against her in any way. But I will continue to teach ye still how to run your country, your father left many papers behind on how to ye know. Here I brought your clothes and one item Kikyo let you have.”

She bended to get what she had dropped and handed me a kimono with a short skirt, and my basket of thread. I quickly looked through it to make sure I still had my arrows. They were there, thank Kami.

“Now quickly child, get changed, Kikyo requests your presence in the dining room.”

She picked up my old clothes, and left, letting me get changed. I took another look at the uniform. It was the strangest thing I'd ever seen. It had a white blouse, and a short green skirt. The skirt only came to about my thighs.

`What's Kikyo trying to do? Sell me like a whore? None of the other servants skirts are this short. I am going to be so pissed if I find out she had sex with the red-eyed freak in this.' I put it on and my sandals, and walked out my door, going to the dining room where Kikyo and her freak lover where sitting for breakfast. Kikyo looked up and smiled cruelly when she saw me enter. The freak looked up and started to look at my legs with lust in his eyes. I stood to the side of them, waiting for one of them to speak.

“Kagome, pour my tea.”

I walked over and poured a little bit of tea, not even enough to fill the bottom of the cup.

`Not my fault she wasn't clear on what she wanted.”

“Kagome, I want more tea you bitch!”

So I poured her a little more tea.

“Kagome! Fill it to the top now.”

So I filled it until it overfilled and it ran of the table onto Kikyo's lap. She screamed and jumped up when it hit her. She backhanded me hard across the face,

`Look what you did to my kimono you little bitch!” she screamed at me, I got up off the floor, but she just hit me back down.

“Stay down there you little brat!” she grabbed the tea pot and held it over my head,

“Do you want to know what's it's like to have hot tea poured all over your skull?” she screamed at me. I looked over to see what the freaky guy was doing. He was staring at my legs like they were his dinner.

`Freaky sicko.'

Kikyo was about to pour the pot over me and I closed my eyes braced for the hot pain it was sure to deliver when the freaky guy spoke up.

“Do you know how sexy you are like that my dear?” He asked hungrily, staring at Kikyo with lust. She smiled seductively back at him.

“Oh, am I?”

He nodded, looking at the wet spot in her lap.

“Yeah, you make me wanna lick you up right now.”

She smile got bigger and poured the tea on herself, over her breasts and legs, emptying it. She threw the pot aside and posed for him.

“Come and get me then baby.” She huskily. He got up, picked her up and rushed toward the door but she stopped him at the doorway and said to me,

“You better clean this floor, on your knees by lunch. Or else.”

And they left while I was still sitting on the floor, my mouth wide open.

`Oh my freaking Kami, I was saved because the freaky guy got a hard on for her? That is so sick.' I shook my head and sighed

` Better find a bucket and rag if I want to get theses floors clean.'

So I got up, and started my first day of servant hood to Kikyo. Kami help me.
