Celestine opened the door and found Inuyasha laying next to Kouga with his back facing him on the floor, while Kouga had an arm draped over him laying on his stomach. Celestine quietly closed the door and crept over to the sleeping couple. He sat cross legged in front of Inuyasha and lightly placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Inuyasha?" Inuyasha groggily opened one eye and saw Celestine looking down on him.
"Sorry. I was kinda tired." Inuyasha sat up and streched a bit.
"That's understandable. You needed to tell me something?"
"Yes. Well," Inuyasha began twidling his thumbs and a blush came to his cheeks. "A few days ago, I asked Kouga...to...to marry me. And he accepted." Celestine was surprised by the news.
"That's great news! Congratulations! Now I'll have four sons and one daughter. But, are you sure you two are ready for marriage? You've been dating for under a year."
"That's true, but" Inuyasha looked at his sleeping fiancee. "I love your son, and there is no one else I would spend my life with. We were planning to tell everyone before we left, but we've been busy."
"That is true. Have the two of you made plans for your wedding?"
"We were talking a bit before we left, and we wanted to have our wedding in your tribe." Celestine's face was full of surprise. "Kouga was telling me about the weddings he has been to. We didn't want a huge wedding, just our immediate family and a few friends. The marital ceremonies that are preformed here sound like what we want in a wedding."
Celestine sighed in defeat. He knew the words that were to come out of his mouth wouldn't be great.
"Inuyasha, I don't think that's possible." Inuyasha's face was stricken with hurt and surprise. "I fully support the both of you, but not everyone else in the tribe will.
Inuyasha's heart felt it was shattered. "Isn't there something you can do?"
Celestine shook his head. "I don't wish to create conflict within our tribe. You can see for yourself by what happened tonight."
Inuyasha looks down. 'What will I tell Kouga?' Inuyasha thought.
"I must go prepare for tomorrow. Please get some sleep, churak." Celestine stood up and left the hut. Inuyasha decided to get some sleep since sunrise was approaching in a few hours.
*4 hours later*
"Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha stirs awake and finds Kouga sitting crosslegged beside him. He was peeling off the paste that dried overnight. It came off like a peel-off facial mask.
"I need you to help me with the ones on my back." Inuyasha got up and sat behind Kouga and peeled off the paste from his back.
When he finished, his eyes went wide.
"Your scars are gone!"
"That's good. You did a great job, itoshii. You know...I heard the conversation between you and my father last night." Kouga felt Inuyasha's hands flinch on his back.
"Oh." Inuyasha encircled his arms around his koishii's back and breathed in his fiancee's ocean-scented hair.
"But there is a way." Kouga turned around and faced Inuyasha.
"The marking ceremony in a marital ritual is very important. It's the main attraction. It is a way for two people to become bonded as one and have the entire tribe be a witness to the union. If it is performed outside the ritual, the two who performed it must be joined in the marital ritual immediately."
"So you're saying that if we do that, we'll be able to be wedded in your tribe?" Inuyasha was at a loss of words.
"Kouga nodded. "It's like having sex before marriage. Doing this outside of the ritual is looked down upon, but I'm willing to risk that if it means I'll be bonded to you." Kouga stroked his itoshii's face with his thumb.
"Are you even willing to risk displeasing your father?" Inuyasha flutters his eyelids and his fiancee's touch sent tingles down his spine.
"Yes, I am."
"You only have one father, koishii." Inuyasha's voice was laced with worry.
"And I have only one love. Are you willing to go through with it?" Kouga looks at his lover's face and sees the doubt covering it. Inuyasha nods. Kouga brought Inuyasha into his lap, straddling his waist so they were face to face.
"I have to warn you, it will be painful, but for only a moment, so I heard. We have to mark each other at the junction that joins our neck and shoulders." Kouga felt Inuyasha grip his upper body.
"I love you, Inuyasha."
"Aishiteru mo, Kouga."
Kouga lifted Inuyasha's head and captured his sweet lips in a soft kiss. After a few moments, their faces were mere centimeters apart.
"Mark me first." Inuyasha looked at Kouga surprised.
"What happens if I don't do it right?"
"How am I supposed to know? I've never done this before either." Kouga gave Inuyasha a small smile. "Use your canines. They're sharper."
Inuyasha brought his lips to the junction of Kouga's neck and shoulders and kissed the spot where he would mark him. He used his canines and quickly bit into the tanned flesh of his lover. Kouga made a small sound and tensed when he felt Inuyasha pierce his skin. Inuyasha noticed a coppery, yet sweet taste in his mouth. When he pulled back, some crimson liquid graced the outside of his mouth. Kouga had to resist the urge to lick him clean.
"That was amazing." Kouga was trying to catch his breath. "It felt like...all your energy was washing over me. It was pure bliss." Kouga licked Inuyasha's lips of his own crimson esscence.
"Are you ready?"
"Yes." Inuyasha leaned his head on Kouga's shoulder, next to his mark. Kouga stroked Inuyasha to calm him. He pushed back his itoshii's hair and neck of his shirt for better access. He took a small amount of flesh between his upper and lower canines and marked him. Inuyasha yelped, but then relaxed as he felt this protective wave of energy go through him. Kouga licked the mark and faced his fiancee. Kouga had a crimson line dripping from his face.
"You okay?" Kouga noticed Inuyasha eyes closed and breathing heavily.
"That was...too good for words." They nuzzled each others noses in an Eskimo kiss. Suddenly the door opened.
"Chamu..." Kouga and Inuyasha turned to Sora standing in the doorway.
"Sorry, I should've...knocked..." Sora noticed the blood on their mouths and necks and her eyes went wide a saucers. "Did you two just-"
"What do you want?" Kouga cut off the rest of her sentence. Sora regained her composure.
"<We got some business to handle. Meet me in the dungeon." Sora turned and gently closed the door.
"Looks like I've gotta finish something. Maybe you should get some rest, itoshii. I'll be back later." Kouga kissed his itoshii's forehead.
"Alright. Sleep sounds good. Please be careful though." Inuyasha moved off Kouga and onto another futon.
"I will." Kouga put on a pair of tan suede pants and left.

Shishio was asleep in the hut he shared with the others. Aoji opted to sit on the floor crosslegged by the bed alseep. His face was covered in sweat.
-DREAM-
"Having fun yet?" Naraku held up his son's head by his hair as Shishio was dangling by his feet on a metal chain.
"P-please...f-father, st-stop..." Shishio was covered with bruises and hung naked minust the chains on his feet that held the hook for the ceiling chain.
"But we had so much fun earlier. You like being on the bottom, so I thought you enjoy being...on top." Naraku crushed his lips against his son's, causing the boy to shed tears. He opened his eyes only to find his mother smirking at him as she was standing against the wall.
'Will anyone save me?'
-end dream-
Shishio bolted up from his nightmare. Aoji noticed Shishio's struggles and was sitting next to him on the bed.
"Are you okay?" Aoji lifted Shishio's face, although he struggled against it.
"Please, just...just..." Tears were cascading down Shishio's face at a rapid speed.
"Just what? Please tell me so I can help." Aoji tried his best to stop the salty stream from running.
"Please...h-help m-me...don't let h-him...t-touch me." Shishio curled into a ball and Aoji held him, with Shishio's head resting on his lap. Shishio hugged his legs close to his chest and rocked himself gently. Aoji took out a beaded bracelet he had won from a game earlier and tied it around Shishio's wrist.
"I won that for you. It can be a reminder of what you left behind, and what you have to look forward to." Aoji didn't get a response, but knew he was listening. "I consider you my beloved, and as such I won't let anything nor anyone harm you. I stake my life on it." Aoji covered Shishio with a blanket and rubbed his back in order to comfort him.
