Updates: None so far :/ Sorry bout that. I will try to update every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
News: Once I've progressed into both stories I will try to get another one going. I don't know what it will be called yet but it's one for Naruto fans ^^ So if your a Naruto fan, just wait a bit!
And most of my stories are going to be based on the manga, with snips from the anime. Including this one. The reason I do this is because there are more details in the manga in some cases. Like InuYasha. So bear with me!
Prologue
"S-s-s-e-s-shomaru-s-sam-a h-how-w m-much l-longer." Jaken was floundering in deep drifts of snow, snow and cold wind buffeting him from all directions. In front of him strode the tall silver haired Sesshomaru, his head lifted as if he was looking for something, "Silence, Jaken." He said flatly, his impassive golden eyes searching the white nothingness above him. Jaken fell into a particularly large snowdrift, puffing out seconds after, shivering, "W-what e-exactly a-are you l-looking f-for in t-these w-wretchedly c-cold N-N-Northern L-lands, S-s-sesshomaru-s-sama?" Jaken asked through chattering teeth. Sesshomaru didn't answer, his gaze flitting over to a certain spot in the blinding blizzard. In a flash, he had jumped up, his face enlongating into that of a muzzle. Soon he had disappeared into the suffocating white, leaving Jaken behind, "S-s-s-e-s-e-shomaru-s-s-a-s-a-ma! Don't leave me here! Sesshomaru-sama!"
Sesshomaru alighted on the ground, facing the golden eyed woman in front of him, "What do you want." He asked flatly. The woman merely smiled, the fur pooled around her elbows whipping around as the blizzard picked up, "What? You aren't glad to see your mother again? Hmph. You haven't changed at all. Still lacking the charm your father had." She seemed slightly put out. That jerk seemed to have forgotten that I was the one that saved his human girl... When Sesshomaru didn't answer, she went on relentlessly, "Where's that human girl you had with you last time," she made a show of looking around, "Did you eat her?" Her eyes flitted back to her son, waiting for a reaction. Sesshomaru was indifferent, "Ridiculous." He said shortly, "If that's all you called me for, I will be leaving." He turned around, slowly walking off. His mother sighed, "Come back, come back. I have something more important to talk to you about rather than a little human girl." Sesshomaru faced his mother again his eyes narrowing. He then twisted his head the other way, the faint sound of struggle reaching his ears, "Sesshomaru-sama! Don't leave me here! Where are you?" Jaken was stumbling through the snow drifts, flopping to a stop at the sight of Sesshomaru and his mother. Eek! His mother! Jaken didn't admit, nor did he act like it but Sesshomaru's mother sca-er intimidated him. He swallowed as her gaze locked on him, "Oh! It's the little youkai!" Jaken drew himself up, "I'm Jaken! Call me Jaken!" But his breath was wasted, as she had already turned back to Sesshomaru, "Well then. Let's get to my castle shall we? It's a bit chilly here.." Clouds whipped around her and she was flying off into the sky. Sesshomaru didn't say anything, merely jumping up after her. Jaken made a leaping lunge at his master's Mokomoko*, "Don't leave me behind again, Sesshomaru-sama!" He cried out as they lifted off into the sky.
"I called you for a reason, Sesshomaru. It concerns the bloodline of your father. You know that your late father was a great Daiyokai. One of the strongest that ever existed. So it's important that his bloodline is continued. Do you get what I'm saying?" The female yokai settled down on the stone throne and stared at at Sesshomaru expectantly. Sesshomaru remained impassive as usual, his fingers twitching slightly, "So?" His mother frowned, "I'm saying that you need to continue your father's bloodline by finding a wife, you ungrateful pup!" She snapped settling back against the stone. Sesshomaru didn't reply, merely giving a little twitch at the title ungrateful pup. While the loving mother and son had their talk, Jaken had collapsed at the top of the staircase panting, in time to catch Sesshomaru's mother's words. he held back a chuckle. Ungrateful little pup? He seemed quite oblivious to the other words she had spoken. Jaken stood upright as Sesshomaru shot a glare at him, a warning, "I wasn't thinking anything." Jaken's eyes were round as he whispered those words under his breath before Sesshomaru returned his gaze to his mother. The Daiyokai's mother was fingering the meidou-senki hung around her neck thoughtfully, as she went on as if they never stopped, "I think an arranged marriage would have been easier. Then I wouldn't have need to worry. Or maybe another son." She let out a exaggerated sigh. Sesshomaru didn't comment, seeming slightly perplexed. His mother studied him quietly, "What do you think, Pup?" When he gave no immediate answer, she fell back against the stone throne. "Hmph! I don't know what kind of female yokai would fall for one that lacks as much charm as you!" She huffed, yet her facial expression eased up right after, "Speaking of yokai...I would rather you find someone who has as much elite blood as you do. Other wise, there is no point for looking for someone." That, Sesshomaru reacted to, his lips pressing together into a hard line, "As if I would." He replied shortly turning around to leave, "Am I dismissed?" His mother waved her hand carelessly, "Go ahead. But remember this. I'll be expecting grandpups in the next 100 years or so." Sesshomaru flashed a stare back at his mother, devoid of any emotion. To which his mother gave him a wink, "Take care!" As Sesshomaru and his subordinate disappeared into the mist at the bottom of the stairs, the female Daiyokai fell back against the throne, a frown on her face, "I hope I didn't embarrass him.." A yokai maid behind her leaned forward curiously, "He didn't seem to care at all." The silver haired female yokai laughed, "I know my precious little son pretty well, Naomi. He was furious as well as embarrassed."
Prologue is finito! Yay! Starting today (Sept 9), I shall now go with the schedule I planned for myself. New chapter starts tomorrow!
Preview: Sesshomaru leaves his mother's palace. Where does he go next? Possibly a visit to his young ward? (A really bad preview, sorry bout that)
*Mokomoko is the fur over Sesshomaru's shoulder. It literally means "fluff fluff"
