Chapter 1 Human Slave

Inuyasha lay on his bed, eyes closed. He was bored. There was nothing to do at the castle, as he had told his older brother earlier. He sighed. He didn't like being back at his home. He had avoided it as much as possible, but when his parents died, a week ago, Sesshoumaru had asked him to return. No, he had ordered him to return to the place he hated. After fighting for years, they had formed a truce, enough to live under the same roof for a while.

Inuyasha rolled over onto his back and stared at the ceiling.

Things had defiantly changed since his brother took charge of the castle. For on thing, Sesshoumaru had forced him to come back to 'help him run things' that his older brother 'couldn't handle by himself'. Hi parents had let him wander and Inuyasha had preferred it that way. It pissed the hanyou off, but Sesshoumaru was the only family that he had left.

Another thing was the slaves. His parents had never had much use for them, only for work, cooking, cleaning, ect. But, Sesshoumaru liked slaves. Female slaves. Not for work. For pleasure. It disgusted Inuyasha. He would never even think about fucking with a slave cuz of his 'burning desire to touch a woman's body'. His brother would. He brought home all sorts of beautiful female youkai, and took them, one by one. Sure they were beautiful, but they were only whores in Inuyasha's eyes. Whores, there only to please his brother, and himself, if he wanted. He didn't. The idea sickened him. Sesshoumaru didn't understand his little brother's disgust. He kept bringing home more and more female youkai, each more beautiful than the last, hoping to tempt his brother, but the hanyou kept refusing his offers.

Inuyasha stood up. Walking over to a window, he leaned against the frame and looked out at the grounds surrounding his home.

*What is it about this place that I hate?* he wondered to himself. *I mean, it has everything that one could ever want! Some people would give an arm and a leg to live here. Am I being greedy, to not be satisfied? To want more?*

A knock came at the door.

"Enter."

A young man with black hair pulled back into a short ponytail walked into the room.

"What do you want, Miroku?"

The man shrugged. "I was bored."

"Join the club"

Miroku rolled his eyes. "So, any ideas?" he asked Inuyasha.

"No."

The monk sighed and walked over to join Inuyasha at the window.

"I must admit, when you forced me to accompany you to your home, I did think that staying at a powerful youkai's castle would be more exiting than this."

"I didn't force you!"

"Ok," Miroku grinned. "Asked in a very...er... persuasive way."

The hanyou snorted. "Whatever."

He watched as his friend stared out the window.

"Your brother has a different way of running this place." Miroku commented.

Inuyasha growled softly. "You got that right."

The monk turned to look at him, grinning slightly. "Come on, Inuyasha! Are you still mad about Sesshoumaru having 'pleasure slaves?" his grin widened as the hanyou glared at him.

"Ya. How'd you guess?" Inuyasha growled

"It wasn't too hard. Why are you so upset with it, any ways?"

"Maybe your fine with the noises they make, but I for one and sick and tired at being woke up every night to listen to the screams and moans that my dear brother and his new bitch make from their little 'love time'." Inuyasha spat at his friend.

"Well, if you tried it for once, you might enjoy it." Said a cold voice behind them.

Inuyasha and Miroku spun around. There, standing before them was Sesshoumaru, Inuyasha's older half brother.

"You could have knocked." The hanyou glared at him.

"Your right. I could have." The youkai swept into the room.

"So? What do you want?" he asked.

"You told me you were bored, a while ago. Have you found some thing to do yet?"

Inuyasha eyed him suspiciously. "No."

"Well, a new load of slaves has just come in. I was thinking that you could come with me to check them out."

"Why would I want to do that?"

"For something to do. Besides...I hear that they are a very good this time."

"No thanks, we'll pass—ouch!"

Miroku had stepped on his foot.

"What the hell was that for?"

"Inuyasha," the monk hissed, "I think we should go and see them."

"Why?"

He coughed lightly. "For something to do..."

"Good." Sesshoumaru said. "I'll meet you downstairs." He walked out the door.

"Miroku!!" Inuyasha hissed at him.

"Come on, Inuyasha! How bad can it be? We go down, look at the gorgeous slaves, and leave!"

"Fine. But only for you, Miroku. Lets go"

he heard Miroku sigh. "Now, if only Sesshoumaru would bring home some nice HUMAN slaves..."

Inuyasha grinned. "You being the perverted little monk that you are."

"Hey! That's not nice!"

"What ever."

************

They stood shivering in the cold hallway, as a handsome man walked before them. They all knew why they had been brought here...what was to come...

************

Inuyasha and Miroku bounded down the stairs like little kids, colliding in a pile before the staring slaves, and Sesshoumaru's disapproving face.

"Hanyou, monk," he hissed at them. "Try to control yourselves!"

They stood up and looked at the slaves in front of them, Inuyasha pushing his long silver hair out of his eyes. They had deliberately acted childish, cuz they knew it pissed the youkai off.

"Ok, Sessh. We've seen the new ones. Can we go?" he started to ask his brother.

Then something caught his attention. That smell! It shouldn't be here! What the hell was going on?

"Sesshoumaru..." he said slowly, "why the fuck have you brought a HUMAN slave to the castle!"
