InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The Lost and The Found ❯ Teaser Preview ( Chapter 6 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Chapter Six is not complete yet. However, I've decided to provide a small teaser on what's next to come. As soon as it's done, this place will be replaced with the real macoy. Until then...

After so long going in circles, Sesshoumaru finally found the place he was looking for. It was a really small place, which served Udon soup. He sat down and ordered himself a bowl. Ever since InuYasha had given him to taste that Instant Stuff, he found himself craving more for it. To Sesshoumaru's line of thinking, it had converted into a sort of delicacy than he would only indulge in from time to time. He wanted to curse that hanyou badly.

He noticed shifty stares. It was more of curiosity than it was of threat. He looked around. They did not seem frightened of him. The cook came personally to bring him his meal. He set the large bowl before the Prince of the Western Lands and leaned over to say: “I hope this meal is to your satisfaction, Lord Sesshoumaru.” Surprised at him even knowing his name, Sesshoumaru stared at the man with both wonder and confusion.

After finishing his meal, Sesshoumaru followed the same man to the back of the establishment where there were stairs leading up to the upper floors. Sesshoumaru could have sworn that he only saw this one floor from the outside, but as it appeared, there was a second floor. Then, that was when he felt demon magic in the works.

The man up front walked with excellent posture. Sesshoumaru made sure not to lose sight of him as they made their way through a long corridor with many doors on each side. Sesshoumaru assumed they were guestrooms. The man gestured him to follow. He did. The walls were laddened with jewels of all sorts and trimmed with the purest of gold and silver. There were paintings on the walls depicting battles of long ago, each one a window to the past for they had an actual life of their own. The floors were heavily carpeted in red. Before Sesshoumaru knew it, they had stopped and the man gestured for the Lord of the Western Lands to step inside. It was a large room fit for an emperor! It had riches beyond anything he had ever seen.

“My girls will be with you shortly. Everything here is at your disposal. If you are in need of a bath do not hesitate to ask, my girls will draw it for you,” he bowed. Sesshoumaru nodded his approval. “Oh, and one more thing, if Your Lordship is in need of…female company I will personally make sure that the best is given to you.”

“Thank you but I will not require any of that, now.”

“As you wish,” he bowed himself out the room, closing the door.

Sesshoumaru looked around, marveling his surroundings. Who would have known that there was a youkai establishment being operated in the heart of a city full of humans? And how long had his sister known about this place? He undid the cord that held his hat in place, throwing down the floor. He then removed his human garments, letting them drop like rotten fruit off a tree, until he was only left with his sophisticated undergarments. Stepping away from the clutter, he made for the bed. Lying down, he placed his silver head upon one of the throw pillows shutting his eyes. It did not take long for him to fall into the seductive grasp of the World of Dreams.

He would only be here for a short while before taking off to find Master Jubei's place. He thought about Rin and how she was holding up. As long as she was with Jaken and the dragon, she would be fine. He found himself extremely sleepy. He had walked all day until finally finding this place, thanks to a human. To imagine, he owed his gratitude to a human that pointed out the way. At least, now, he was here and in comfort, obeying what his body needed. Rest.

Thank you for your patience and loyalty.
