All the while thinking that I had made a new friend and new adventure was just around the corner I just didn't know how right I was.
It had been a month since I met tohru and Kyoko they came over preatty often Kyoko loved Hana and Kotoko and Rin they basically called Nana. I was in the kitchen making cookies with the help of all the little children.
When the phone rang I turned my back and picked it up "Higarashi shrine Saorie speaking how may I assist you" we had to all say that the house number was used for the shrine and the house. "oh hey tohru" "hey Saorie I tried your cellphone but you didn't answer" "oh its in my room im making cookies with the kids" "ok well iwas calling to see how you where doing smiling right".
I smiled at the phone Tohru and Kyokohad found out about what I was and where myself and my children where born. They didn't mind they where also helpping me out of the deppresion I seemed to have sunken into after fluffy. "yes smiling thank you tohru" she told me she had to go so we said bye and I hung the phone up and turned around.
Litrally my phone call wasn't even a few minutes long and cookie dough was every where. I sighed "well go get changed" they ran out of the kitchen and I finished the cookie dough and made sure to clean u. "kids they just like to make a mess" I grumbeled out and I scrubbed cookie dough from places I didn't think kids could get cookie dough.
"saorie where back" I heard my aunt and Kagome and souta yell out. "Im in the kitchen" I yelled back my aunt came in and gasped. "oh wow the kitchen looks so clean thank you saorie" I chuckled not like I really had a choice. "oh a letter came for you" I scrunched my nose no one knew I was here that would send me anything.
I took it from my aunt all it had on there was my name and the adress I frowned and opened it. I pulled the rice paper out of the small envelope as I started reading I smiled "its from Nano they need us to go to the western palace they have decided what I need to do to get my title back".
My aunt smiled and clapped her hands together "oh that's wonderful dear how are you getting there" I shrugged. "well I could just magic orb us there would be faster and they said they want us there asap" she nodded and I smiled widley I was going home.
"thank you aunty for letting us stay here" she smiled and wrapped me in a hug. "of course dear your family and I love having all my grand children here" I smiled my aunt decided my kids where her grandkids to.
"I better go get the little ones ready" she nodded and I went up to the kids room rin was helpping them get changed. Kotoko was in a little power ranger shirt and khaki shortsand thomas the choo choo train shoes.
Hana had a disney princess shirt on as well as little jeans and barbie shoes. Rin had actually taken for more my style with skinny jeans pokemon shirt and black converse I smiled she had adapted fairly well to the modern world. "hey guys guess what" they all looked at me in anticipation I bet they thought they where getting ice cream well at least the twins.
"I got a letter from aunty Nano we get to go home now" the smiles on there faces couldn't get any bigger and they tore around the room getting there favorite things and putting it int the bag we had come threw the well with. I smiled as they finished they packed light only wanting there toys which actually filled that bag yup that was light packing.
I chuckled and went to my room I pulled out a back pack that was blue much like Kags big yellow one. I filled it with my kimonos I brought back some of my modern clothes the picture albums I had made and some makeup.
I grabbed my cell and its charger and shoved thouse in there as well I swung the giant back pack over my shoulder and walked to the living room. The kids where hugging everyone and saying there good byes.
i hugged Kagome souta and my aunt "don't forget to come visit dear we are always your family". I smiled "I wont ill have my cell phone if you need to get a hold of me" they nodded and I corraled my three outside. Rin Picked Hana up and I got Kotoko I held her hand and in a flash we where standing infront of the western palace.
I smiled warmly it looked the same nothing changedwell I mean except for the cars outside and the guards hoding guns instead of swords. We walked to the main gate only to be stopped by human guards they would have no idea who we where.
"Halt do you have business here" I turned to look at him my eye narrowing in a glare. "yes my name is Saorie Taishou I have receved word from Nano so let me in" the man blinked I don't think Nano really send out many letters or has people use her name directly.
He turned and made a phone call then buzzed us in. I smirked and walked in the gates all the people standing around looked over at us though they where just gardners and stuff I don't think many vistors came to the estate.
"Saorie" I looked at the door being thrown open by Nanos son who mind you has grown. "oh Toko you grew up look at you sport" he looked as old as I did if not a year or so older. The twins ran up to him I laughed it was hard to believe the twins where actually older then the demon infront of me.
"come mama and papa are waiting for you" I nodded and we all fallowed behind him. We walked thre the familer halls nothing was different the paintings where up the tapastries I wouldn't be shocked if mine and sesshomarus room looked the same as well.
"you need to change into something fitting your station a lot of your old Kimonos are hanging up still the council wants to see you your penance is planned" I nodded and stopped in front of the doors that lead into mine and my mates old room.
I touched the handle softly the last time I was in here was almost 500 years ago and I was leaving. "ill take care of the kids take your time there a bunch of grumpy men but they will wait for you" I nodded and went in the room. It still smelled of Jasmine I felt tears trickle down my face the memorie of when my mate passed still fresh in my mind.
I shook my head and wipped the blood and tears from my face I pulled out the kimono I wore when I had relased the north. I sighed as I finished tieng the obi my self I moved to the vanity table and dug threw my jewelry box and pulled out the saphire and pearl necklace that rested at the bottum. I put it on and smiled running my fingers over it it was a gift from sesshy when the twins where born.
I looked at myself deciding I was just waisting time at this point I stood up. No ne had to show me where to go I knew the council convined in the dining room so that's where i went. I opened the doors and all conversation stopped and 6 men and wemon looked at me.
Koga and my uncle where the only ones I recognized "sorry if im late I had to make sure my children where ok before I came" I lied. "its allright My Lady please have a seat and we shall tell you what you must do" I nodded and sat next to koga the other four where staring at my scar in disbelif.
"may I ask why you are staring I know I have not stepped foot in council in almost 500 years but I do know my portrait is still hanging up" the 2 men and 1 of the women bowed there head. "we where wondering where you got that hideos scar and why you have decided to keep it" I glared I knew that voice. Yup it was the panther demon from the ball when I was announced you know the one I bitch slapped with my power.
"oh this lovely thing I got it when I was fighting Nigini just after he gave the poisen to my mate that ultamtly killed him" I snapped out at her she flinched. Apperntly she remembered that night. "well now that you are here we shall begin" a very grumpy looking boar demon stated.
I nodded and sat back reclining in the chair they where still discussing some sort of political thing that was no intrest to me. Finally 20 minutes later they turned back to me "we know you will want your titles back and you are welcome to them after you finish the penece that you have willingly agreed to". I nodded and sat straight up the female dragon demon gave me a small smile which I returned. It seemed the newer members of the council where not hard asses like the last lot.
"you shall have to live 1 year with out the help of your lands money as well as try to remove the family curse of a human family they are to close to demons and the head Akito is trying to bully his way into our council" I pursed my lips.
"what is wrong with humans joining the council it is a new era I think that demons hiding is rediculous we should openly come out again" there where murmurs and the moth man stood up. "Humans tried to wipe us all out while you where in hiding they will try to do the same to us now no matter what ear they are afraid of us" he shot out angerly. I glared at him with my good eye and pointed to the half demon who was sitting across from me.
"as I remember the last time I came to this council with your sires and mothers in the seats you are in now half demons where not allowed in here eather no affence against you dear I am making a point" the shy woman who I was guessing was half fox bowed her head to me.
"Half Demons showed incredible strength and over came there ridicule when they helped us in the great human demon war" I nodded and interlaced my fingers. "yes that is wonderful news especially since the late lord of these lands own half brother is in fact half demon but you forget there have always been humans who have willingly helpped us and accepted us how do you think half demons came in to existance" this shut the moth man up.
He sat back down with a huff "that is something my dear niece you may bring up when you are in this chair and not I". I smiled to my uncle who smiled back "well if that is all I shall go make the preperations for leaving". "actually that is not all we think it would be best that you are not allowed on the estate grounds until you have finished at least a year at ouran acadmy" I growled at the panther demon.
"if that is what I have to do then I shall but I want to make a condition of that" they nodded and listened. "when I go you must pay for that and any other person I need to get in that is all you have to pay is tuition the rest I will handle and how and when I get in is my own choice" there was silence for a moment.
"thouse are acceptible tearms seeing how the money is actually your own" every one but the panther demon agreed. "like I care how you do it just remember if you step on the grounds before this time next year you forfiet your titles" I nodded smiling sweetly to the demon who hated my guts. "yes but one more thing and this is for my uncle only" I turned and looked at my uncle.
"the children can stay here and visit when ever they feel like it the house of sohma you will be staying at is expecting you tonight a car will take you there good luck Saorie" I smiled he knew exactly what I was going to ask. I nodded stood and bowed leaving the room as soon as the doors closed I clutched my chest.
It broke my heart to leave my children but I knew I could not take them with me they where finally able to get home I could not take that from them. I made my way to my room and made sure I had plenty of the gems I knew I would get good money for.
I changed into black skinny jeans and a red tanktop I put on blue converse and hid my demon features. When I looked at my self in the mirror I looked human exept I kept my hair the same color. My ears where rounded my marks where hidden.
My scar though still stood out it looked the same jagged and ugly but I actully didn't mind it as much as I had at first. I sighed and moved to the room where the kids where playing. I watched them for a moment until a maid came up and whispered that the car was ready I nodded.
"kids come here a moment" they dropped what they where doing and ran up to me. "what is it mommy" I smiled and kneeled down and looked them all in the eyes. "you rememeber how mommy said once we got home I would have to do something so we could live here foreeve again" they all three nodded.
"well mommy has to live somewhere else for a year but don't worry you get to come see me any time you want and Aunty and uncle will be here plus all your cousins so you wont be alone" all three looked like they where about to cry.
"he now you need to be big kids k and while im gone you all can sleep and mommies room remember you did that when I had to go to other peoples home before" they nodded and the twins hugged me. I smiled and pulled rin in for a hug to.
"don't worry a year isnt long I will be back plus you get to visit all the time k mommy has to go now so be good and have fun allright" I pulled away whitch just ripped my heart out of my chest more. I quickly ran to the car so I didn't try to stay longer I would have just forfeted my role as Lady but sesshomaru made me promise that when I came back I would take my postion again.
I slid in the passanger seat of the Camey and watched as all three of my kids waved at me from there window I waved back trying not to cry.
Would be hard to explain to the human driver why blood was coming out of my eye as we speed along I sighed watching the trees roll by in a blur. Today sucked and I had a feeling it would only get worse.
