Scene 16 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- One Week Later

* It is nearly noon when Inuyasha stretches languidly and comes awake in the cave. When he realizes that he's alone for the first time since he brought Sesshomaru in here a week ago he bolts upright. The cave is still permeated with the heavy scent of their various copulations, but Sesshomaru is nowhere inside the cave. Not even bothering to throw on the long-discarded yukata, Inuyasha moves to the entrance. The barrier is still in place, but Inuyasha barely notices its slight tingle as he moves through it. The hanyou pauses to sniff around the meadow calmly as he lets his eyes adjust to the bright sunshine. He sniffs out the various spots where they've shared more heated moments around the meadow, but still catches no sight of what he's looking for. Then, as if suddenly aware that he's being searched for, Sesshomaru's aura flares. Inuyasha grins ferally and bounds off in that direction quickly. When he comes to the small hotspring and finds Sesshomaru relaxing in it, he relaxes down onto his haunches to wait anxiously for his Alpha's attention. As he waits, his eyes study the beauty of his brother once more. Sesshomaru waits a few moments before speaking, but refuses to meet his little brother's gaze. Knowing by now, that just a certain glance will bring his young mate to him eagerly.

Sesshomaru- I needed to bathe.. We positively reeked of each other, brother.

* At first, the coldness of Sesshomaru's manner reminds Inuyasha of the way they always regarded each other before. The hanyou swallows and lowers his eyes until his instincts once again surface. Calmly, he slips down into the warm waters and wades over to Sesshomaru. He pauses in front of his Alpha a moment, then gives in and sinks down onto his knees before moving in closer. As he leans forward to nuzzle Sesshomaru under his chin he finally feels the full demon acknowledge him.

Sesshomaru- The rutting period is completed, Inuyasha.

* The half demon sighs, but stays snuggled close to him.

Inuyasha- I.. I know... But I'm.. still yours...

* He pulls his head back to timidly meet Sesshomaru's deep golden eyes. When he turns to move away, Sesshomaru lifts his newly regenerated left arm, testing the motion of it, to pull Inuyasha back against his chest. He looks down to watch the hanyou lick a calm path up the well-muscled arm. It was able to be renewed with his help since he was the one that removed the appendage.

Sesshomaru- Yes, Little Brother.. You are still mine.

* Sesshomaru lifts his right arm up to begin rubbing Inuyasha's chest and stomach. They both close their eyes and just concentrate on the slightly stronger auras of the new lives that are now developing inside the hanyou. Sesshomaru soon hears Inuyasha sigh deeply.

Sesshomaru- You have accepted me.. I'm not going to reject you.. or them now....

* Inuyasha swallows.

Inuyasha- Y-you're.. not?
Sesshomaru- No. You are my mate.. These are my pups.
Inuyasha- Pups... I.. I feel them... Seven of them growing inside me...

* Sesshomaru nods.

Sesshomaru- Yes. All that time I spent making you stronger has paid off... Stronger means bigger, healthier litters... And you were right.

* Inuyasha tilts his head to look up at Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru- I am taking you back to my castle. I will allow no chance for harm to come to you or to.. our pups.

* Inuyasha feels that there's no room for argument, but he still lowers his eyes as his thoughts turn to his 'pack' of friends.

Sesshomaru- When we are clean I will go with you so you may give them the news... Then we leave... Jaken will have the castle ready for our arrival by now.

* Silently, Inuyasha nods. He knows that he, too, must put the pups' safety before anything else. He looks back up at Sesshomaru as he turns in his arms. The dog demon pulls his head back slightly, but curiously allows the hanyou to claim his mouth in a passionate kiss. With no more fear of pain, Inuyasha offers himself expectantly to his Alpha. Sesshomaru remains passive, though, as his mate begins to explore down his front until he reaches the waterline. When Sesshomaru finally decides to raise up away from him, Inuyasha feels his weariness. He tilts his head up at his older brother with an amused smirk.

Inuyasha- Wore you out, did I?
Sesshomaru- You tell me you are not as sore as I after the week we just shared?

* The silver-haired hanyou relaxes and turns to lean against the rock where Sesshomaru was sitting.

Inuyasha- Yeah.. My body feels like it's been through a hundred rounds with Naraku.

* Sesshomaru turns to look at Inuyasha growling at the mention of that name.

Sesshomaru- When our pups are born we will finish that menace.
Inuyasha- It won't be easy, ya b--...! I mean, Sessh...
Sesshomaru- No. But before we always went against him seperately..
Inuyasha- Or at each other.

* Sesshomaru relaxes enough to smirk at his mate. He goes over, turns Inuyasha around, then dunks his head under the warm water. Inuyasha comes up sputtering with a curse, but relaxes when his brother begins scrubbing his long, silver hair.

Sesshomaru- True.. But this time we will be united... We will not lose.

* Inuyasha moans and enjoys the pampering as Sesshomaru continues grooming him. When he is done, Inuyasha's hair is once more silky clean and free of any tangles. Sesshomaru moves toward the shore.

Sesshomaru- Time to go. Put your fire rat garment back on. I've cleaned it for you.

* Inuyasha looks toward the rock that Sesshomaru waves at. The hanyou climbs up out of the hotspring. Sesshomaru watches his little brother shake himself dry until the demon growls impatiently. Inuyasha ignores the sound, but moves to his crisply folded outfit. When they are both dressed Inuyasha glances at Sesshomaru, laughs a bit, then hops off. The sound of his mate's laughter goes straight into Sesshomaru's being. The demon Lord pauses to relish in the feeling a moment, then moves off to follow calmly, waving his right hand to abolish the barrier. Inuyasha stands at the edge of the meadow waiting for him to catch up.

Inuyasha- Why don't we come back here every spring?
Sesshomaru- We shall see. But you won't come into heat for another two years now that we are mated.

* Sesshomaru heads off taking the lead. Inuyasha mumbles as he falls into step slightly behind him.

Inuyasha- (Mumbled) You can still be a prick.

* Sesshomaru only gives a slight reaction of hearing him as they continue toward the village.
