Chapter 1: The Decision of Killing Time
InuYasha slept on his rug on the cold kitchen floor until the morning yells of his stepbrothers and stepmother woke him up. His mother, Izayoi had died due to sickness and his father remarried to a demoness by the name of Naomi. After a few years, Lord InuTaisho died and Naomi showed her true colors along with her sons Sesshomaru and Koga.
"Get up, muttface!" Koga yelled from the kitchen entrance. "I'm hungry and you better make me something good."
"Who's he calling muttface? That insolent bastard", InuYasha thought to himself and woke up instantly or he would be suffering his wicked stepmother's wrath by killing time. The punishment was as horrible as it sounds because Time was his pet cockroach demon. InuYasha had found the cockroach drowning in the ferocious waves of the cup of coffee and rescued him and named him Time.
"What do you want to eat?" InuYasha asked slowly.
"What Sesshomaru wants to eat", Koga said and looked over his shoulder to see Sesshomaru, his elder brother coming downstairs. Sesshomaru put his foot down on a wet step and fell the rest of the way down, hitting his head. Koga rushed to him and started helping him up.
Sesshomaru started to see doubles and said, "Koga, since when do you have a twin?"
"A twin?" Koga asked frowning.
Sesshomaru shook his head and looked up to see only one Koga to his relief. Sesshomaru got up dusting the front of his kimono and looked angrily at InuYasha.
"Moron! Why did you not wipe the stairs dry?" Sesshomaru yelled. "I'll be telling mother to tell you to kill Time."
"I'm sorry! It won't happen again", InuYasha said, but inside he was saying, "I'm sorry that you didn't hit your head hard enough to get amnesia that is."
"Good. Now make me some good breakfast", Sesshomaru answered.
"What do you want to eat?" InuYasha asked.
"What mother wants to eat", Sesshomaru replied and looked over his shoulder to see his mother coming down the stairs. "Mother, watch out. The stairs are still wet."
Naomi walked down the stairs, careful not to slip and went up to InuYasha and said, "make me a good breakfast, hanyou."
InuYasha flinched at the coldness of her voice and asked, "what do you want to eat?"
"Make me tomato soup without tomatoes and ramen without noodles", Naomi answered blankly and went to sit at the table.
"Make me what she wants", Sesshomaru said and followed his mother.
"Make me what he wants", Koga said and followed his brother.
InuYasha sighed. He was going to have to make tomato soup without tomatoes and ramen without noodles somehow. It was the same every time. Last time, his stepmother wanted scrambled eggs without eggs and coffee without the coffee powder. Inu Yasha went into the kitchen and looked over at Time.
"Did she tell you to make another impossible breakfast?" Time squeaked.
"As usual. She needs to get off of that lazy butt of hers and do her own chores", Inu Yasha responded.
Time snickered. "That will be the day when the sun freezes."
Inu Yasha raised a brow at Time.
After breakfast, Koga and Sesshomaru went to their daily training with Naomi while InuYasha cleaned the floors and then tied a handkerchief around his head and dusted the windows with Time following him along in his chores.
"Stupid idiots. Making me do all the work at home while they sit around moping", InuYasha muttered to himself.
Later that evening, someone knocked on the door of the huge castle. InuYasha opened the door to find a young kitsune cub with brownish reddish hair tied with a blue ribbon standing in front of a carriage drawn by a cat demon with red eyes and a light yellow pelt. (A/N: For those who don't know who the cat demon is, it's Kirara.)
"I am Shippo, the messenger of the king and queen. I have a message for the residents of this castle", Shippo said, handing InuYasha a piece of rolled brown parchment tied with a red string.
InuYasha took the parchment and closed the door.
Shippo got on the carriage and rode off to deliver the message to other townsfolk. InuYasha started to unroll the paper when Koga snatched it out of his hands and said, "what's this, muttface? It looks like a message from the king and queen." Koga read the parchment and a smile crept across his face. He ran to his brother saying, "hey, Sesshomaru! The king and queen are having a ball for Princess Kagome to choose her mate."
Sesshomaru came out of his room and grabbed the parchment from Koga's hands and read it before it was snatched out of his hands by Naomi, who grinned at the words on the paper, which read:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the Residents of this Residency,
Their royal highnesses, King Miroku and Queen Sango are inviting all high nobles to the ball in which their daughter, Princess Kagome, will choose her mate. The ball will take place tomorrow evening till midnight. One more thing, the princess is only going to marry a pure demon by the will of her father. Any humans or half-demons will be thrown out of the castle if they are there to seek Princess Kagome's hand.
Signed,
The King's royal advisor,
Kikyo
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"This is positively excellent. Think about all the riches we could get if the princess chose one of you as her mate", Naomi said excitedly.
"Um….may I go as well?" InuYasha asked hesitantly.
"Didn't you read the letter? It said no hanyous", Naomi replied wickedly.
"Damn!" Inu Yasha thought to himself.
"Finish your chores now", she said and went to her room to decide which dress to wear for the ball and which necklace would go along with it.
The Next morning, InuYasha woke up early and started on his chores and after a half an hour, he heard the daily yells of Koga.
"Yo, muttface, make me my breakfast", Koga said.
"What do you want?" InuYasha asked rather arrogantly.
"Toast."
Sesshomaru was sitting in his study and came out as he heard Koga.
"Make me a salad. I'm not hungry today", Sesshomaru replied.
Naomi came out of her room and InuYasha groaned. He knew his stepmother would order something impossible for him to do.
"Make me a chicken sandwich without bread and chocolate milk without milk", Naomi said.
InuYasha wondered how to do this and went into the kitchen. He put together some pieces of chicken on a plate and poured chocolate powder into a glass and made some toast and salad.
"Inu Yasha, are you going to the ball?" Time asked as Inu Yasha made breakfast.
"How do you know about the ball?" Inu Yasha asked as he arranged the chicken.
"I overheard it."
"No, I'm not going. The letter said that there were to be no hanyous."
"Only if you're going to seek Princess Kagome's hand. If you aren't then you could go."
"Missus bossy pants said that I couldn't go", Inu Yasha replied with a bitter voice as he referred to his stepmother.
"Oh."
InuYasha quickly served the food and went straight back to his chores. He wanted them done by evening so that he could enjoy the time that Naomi wasn't home.
"Inu Yasha," Naomi called.
"Yeah?"
"Since you've been working so hard, I've decided to take you to the ball", she said.
"Are you serious?" he asked with disbelief.
"Yes. Did you finish your chores?"
Inu Yasha nodded his head.
Naomi looked around her and said to InuYasha, "did you mop the floors?"
"Yes."
"Clean the kitchen?"
"Yes."
"Dust the windows?"
"Yes."
"Kill Time?"
"Yes….I mean no…..I mean what?"
Naomi laughed a wicked laugh. "If you are to come to the ball, you are going to have to kill Time."
"B-but why?" InuYasha asked desperately. The cockroach was his only friend.
"Don't question me, hanyou", Naomi replied. "If you don't kill Time, then you don't go to the ball."
A/N: So, is InuYasha going to kill Time or not? I mean, it's his beloved pet cockroach. Find out who the fairy godmother, or in this case, the fairy godbrother is in the next chapter. Please review!
