Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or any of its characters…although I am saving up to buy Sesshomaru.
An imperial looking man pushed through the giant crowd surrounding his destination. Every woman that crossed him seemed to swoon on their feet and immediately recognized him. He was Sesshomaru, the wealthiest and handsomest man throughout all the country and in some people's opinion the world.
All of the people in the crowd tried start a conversation with him although at his cold glare they knew to stay away. Oh yes, he was a great man but a sardonic one at that and no one that tried to get close to him had much success. That is except his personal servant Jaken.
Jaken was a very pitiable person. He had an uncanny resemblance to a toad and almost everyone mocked him for it. So when one person didn't Jaken instantly clung to him. Now guess who that person was? Uh huh it was Sesshomaru. Honestly the only reason Sesshomaru didn't was because he didn't want to talk to something of such disgrace. Although Jaken didn't know and clung to Sesshomaru, who didn't object because good help was hard to find. Especially good help that will admire you and do everything you say.
Suddenly Sesshomaru heard annoying squeaks and pulled to a stop.
"Master, master. Wait for me," Jaken said running up with a ton of luggage resting on his strained back.
Sighing in his head (which is something he mastered in order to hide his emotions) Sesshomaru turned away waiting for the small servant.
"Master, may I ask why we are going on the Titanic? I mean to say, master, all of a sudden you took Captain Smiths offered tickets when you once declined them," Jaken said curiosity shining in his eyes.
"No, you may not ask, servant. Now hurry along or I will take the luggage and leave you to be trampled," Sesshomaru said already walking away.
Huffing Jaken followed, sad that he angered his master yet still inquiring why his master seemed so mysterious recently. Jaken had never seen Sesshomaru do something without proper reason and planning so this was quite unusual and in his opinion, a quite unwanted hassle.
"Sorry master. Jaken shall be of proper order from now on," Jaken said scurrying ahead and pushing aside the crowd in his desperate attempt to catch up before this master boarded without him.
"Eww," Kagome shouted upon feeling a slimy hand against her side. Quickly turning to hit whatever thing that did that she saw a small toad man rushing along and pushing everyone in his way in an attempt to catch up with some man the crowd had parted for. Kagome being the questioning girl that she was followed the toad man's path to get a glimpse at whoever the man was. Getting closer she now was able to get a peek at the man. He had silver hair, although he didn't appear old, and golden-brown eyes. He was very muscular, tall and had a refined air upon him. Now although she had to admit he was handsome she didn't understand what all the commotion was. Tapping an old woman on the shoulder she wanted to find out exactly what was going on.
"Excuse me, but do you know why everyone is crowding around this man?" Kagome asked glancing his way again.
"Silly girl that is the Great Sesshomaru. Did you mother teach you nothing? He is the most eligible men in all the country, and not to mention the handsomest," the women said sending Kagome a look saying she didn't believe Kagome didn't know that man.
Shrugging slightly Kagome took one last look at the man before setting off to find her mother.
Sesshomaru turned back to make sure that Jaken didn't drop all of the luggage when he saw a gorgeous girl glance at him and then turn away. She had fine black hair and stunning blue eyes. Her body seemed young yet developed and she had a mature yet hurt aura. That was the thing that attracted him the most because it was much like his.
Shaking his head swiftly he turned around and started to make his way back up to the ship. He couldn't believe what foolish thoughts he was having. How could a mere girl have much pain? Truthfully, he thought the most pain she suffered was that of having a broken nail.
Arriving upon the dock of the ship Sesshomaru handed the flushed woman his and Jaken tickets, stopping to allow the servant ahead of him to find the room. I mean he was practically royalty, he should have an escort. Sighing annoyingly in his head he followed Jaken though the various halls. He ended up at the end of the third deck (Bridge Deck) which he counted had about 30 rooms on. He was very relieved that he was not on another deck where he would have to share with lowly people.
Stepping into the room he noticed that it was very well accommodated with gold trims and it was very spacious. It had 5 rooms; one was the master, then two smaller rooms and the living and sitting room.
"This will be suitable, Jaken. Leave my luggage in the master bedroom and then unpack it all. I shall return by the time you are done," he said with a brief flick of dismissal of his wrist.
Jaken wanted to ask where his master was going but after seeing Sesshomaru's glare he opted to just head off to the room.
"Kagome, Kagome," Sango called waving her arms franticly trying to make Kagome notice her.
Sango was Kagome's servant although Kagome never considered Sango to be less then her best friend.
Laughing at Sango's display she pulled up her dress and run over. Her mother tried to scowl at her daughters antics but couldn't help but smile at Kagome desperately trying to run over in high heels.
"I'm here. Should we get on the ship now?" Kagome said too out of breath to even look at her mother as she said it.
"Yes, I suppose we should get on now. I already give Miroku his ticket and sent him with the baggage. He should be putting it away now so we can walk around the ship a bit," Kagome's mother said.
Sango just snorted saying, "I bet the pervert is going though it now. I better go check up on him and start putting the clothes away."
"Ohhh, I think Sango misses Miroku already," Kagome teased trying to dodge Sango's hit.
"Kagome shush. Sango that would be fine. Thank you," Kagome's mother said worried that Sango may actually hit her daughter. I mean after hitting Miroku that much Sango had worked up some muscles.
Nodding with a blush Sango got her ticket from Kagome's mother and swiftly slipped through the crowd to the dock. Kagome and her mother followed after and gave their tickets in to see they were on the third deck. They started to walk around the ship and got familiar with it but Kagome's mother got tired and headed back to the room to see how Sango and Miroku were fairing. Kagome offered to come but her mother said that at least one of them should know where the rooms were. Nodding Kagome continued on her little adventure about the ship.
Ah, okay this is my first fan fiction so I am very excited but also very new and scared so please no mean flames although I don't mind suggestions. lol It is pretty short because I didn't wait to give everything away yet I kind of want Kagome and Sesshomaru to reveal themselves to each other so it has to wait. Anyhow, you probably noticed this chapter didn't have a lot about the Titanic but I am going to add more info about it. I studied a lot to make sure I got all the facts straight so this story will be all right but if you notice anything off please tell me because some sites aren't very reliable. grumble grumble
Thanks for reading!
