The moment you all have been waiting for! The sequel to A Little's Enough! This story is co-written by the lovely Maiden of the Heavens who was the one to suggest the story. It revolves mostly around Dosakusa and Aitou and MOTH's own character, Nicada (see Into the Darkness and Daughter of the Crimson Moon). Inuyasha will make an apperance so don't be quick to jump to conclusions, please.
I do not own the Inuyasha series, of course. But Dosakusa and Aitou belong to me and Nicada belongs to MOTH. Any reproduction of such characters is forbidden without the expressed consent of us!!!
Anyway, hope you all enjoy the story!!!

"Nee-chan…" the boy grumbled as he tagged behind his sister. The girl walked slightly ahead of him, her long ebony hair trailing far behind her.
"What, Aitou?" she asked, not turning to face him.
"I don't like this aura…why in all the seven hells are we here?" he grumbled angrily.
She smiled wickedly. "Oh onii-chan, if only you knew of the power this demon has…the power that he could give us! We have to go and see him!"
Dosakusa almost ran through the entrance to the castle, picking up her silver kimono to get a faster pace. Aitou was close behind her, surveying the place around him with a dark, cautious look on his face.
"What did you say this demon's name was?" he asked in a defeated tone as Dosakusa widened the gap between them.
"Naraku," she said flatly.
When Dosakusa reached the door that led them into the main castle, she turned and waited for her twin to catch up. "Hurry up Aitou-kun! We must speak to him quickly!"
Aitou mumbled something unintelligibly and flashed a cold stare at his sister. She was always ordering him around and he wanted nothing more than to smack her pretty little face.
Once Aitou had caught up, Dosakusa hurried through the doors and into the building. Her eyes flashed brightly in the dark as they scanned the area around her. Aitou was right… this aura, it sent shivers up her spine. But she choked back her fear and whipped her bangs out of her face.
There! She spotted the door, the screen, which Naraku hid behind. She was so close, she could smell his miasma, feel it soaking through her skin with each step she took. Of course it did not affect her or her brother. They were immortal; not one thing could kill them.
"You are late," a cool, deep voice said behind the screen.
Dosakusa slid the screen aside and stood in its wake, staring into the blood red eyes of the demon she had sought out. Aitou was right on her heels, looking over her head.
The demon was sitting in the corner of the room, one hand up on his knee as he gazed at them lazily. His hair was long and black but it wasn't his appearance that startled Aitou, it was the power that radiated off of him. It was unlike anything that he had ever seen. It frightened him.
"Naraku," Dosakusa greeted, bowing slightly.
"Dosakusa," he said politely. "Aitou." He nodded at the boy behind her. He just smiled and bowed respectfully.
"There is no need for fear," he assured Aitou. "I won't harm you…" His eyes settled on Dosakusa and beckoned her closer. As she walked in, she felt the power sink into her pores, it was as though his strength was already coursing through her.
Aitou slid the screen shut and stood off to the side. He didn't like this one bit. He didn't trust this Naraku. And yet, why did Dosakusa walk to him like that? It was almost as if she were in a trance.
"Now tell me," Naraku said, amusement was buried behind his red eyes. "Why do you wish to make a deal with me?"
Dosakusa knelt before him, bowing her head so her long hair draped the floor. Aitou did not move. "We need your power. We are not strong enough to defeat those who challenge us."
"Now who in the world would challenge two small children?" he laughed, his eyes darting from brother to sister.
Dosakusa's head snapped up. Her eyes were menacing. "Inuyasha."
Now Naraku was interested. "That half-demon? I don't see what you and that worthless half-breed have against each other…"
"Kagome...We attacked Kagome."
"Ah, that would in fact, do it," he joked darkly. "You wish to kill them, I presume?"
"Of course!" Dosakusa shrieked, her eyes flashing red. "Do you honestly think I would just let them get away with it! They nearly managed to kill Aitou-kun!"
Aitou coughed and hung his head in shame. It was true. Inuyasha's damn sword had nearly done him in. If it weren't for Dosakusa, he'd be rotting away in hell.
"For your brother's sake then, you wish to serve me?"
"Serve you?" Dosakusa scoffed. "We wish to do no such thing!"
"I do not feel that children such as yourselves can possibly outdo myself. I find that you will have to prove yourselves worthy."
Dosakusa put her palms on the floor and glared at the demon. "Don't you insult us! You have no place saying that we will be your servants. We wish to access your power, not tend to your every whim!"
Naraku laughed. "Then by all means, Dosakusa-chan, show me your power."
Aitou flinched when his sister laughed wickedly. It sent shivers up his spine.
"Just wait until you fall asleep, Naraku."
