Inuyasha crossover Kung-Fu Panda 2
Only With You
It really is an irony that what his family is great at some became his livelihood. Kagome had since continued on travelling and he too kept to being near her, sometimes dropping by whenever the mutt or her friends are not in the area so that they will not give them, her especially any trouble. Years it had taken them to know one another under much discretion, and he was on the look out for opportunity after having mastered the language.
Kagome is slow to open up to him, but then again, so was he as they explore their relationship after that awkward night. Sad to say though, Inuyasha happens to always get in their way much to his annoyance, Miroku and Sango on the other hand are more cautious often looking out for Kagome as they would warn her of possible treachery from Shen, something that he takes offense to.
Now in the modern time period after having taken the years to create and build his empire, he owns more than one business that customizes fireworks, but also a side in creating weapons of destruction, often working with the military as he travelled overseas and elsewhere to expand his foothold. Kagome was not often by his side, also because it is her choice, but he left her in good hands of Sesshoumaru's after they have come to an agreement on their alliance. Something that even Kagome did not foresee.
"I will be home soon, see you shortly," Shen said over the phone before he ended the call with a ghost of a smile upon his lips as he look almost affectionately at his phone.
His red eyes are hidden behind of tinted shades as he looked out of the car's tinted window. They had waited as per Kagome's request until they could celebrate their union with her family. Kagome had originally wanted to be able to celebrate with his side of the family as well, but with circumstances like this, it is really impossible for them to.
Since knowing Kagome, she has been a great influence in his life and changed him for the better, something that even he did not really expect especially when he was fueled with revenge, the need to prove himself and power. It is somewhat still the same, but Kagome is always by his side to guide him and lead him onto the right path should he make the wrong decision.
"I'm home," Shen announced as he stepped through the door of their mansion, a unit that he had bought for them that overlooked Tokyo Bay.
"Shen?" Kagome called out from the kitchen, no doubt cooking dinner for the both of them with the way the house is smelling so good.
"Yes?" he called out, loosening his tie and unbuttoning a few of the top buttons as he walked into the kitchen.
"You're lovely as always," Shen told her affectionately, hugging her from behind as he kissed the side of her exposed neck, and getting a hum from her.
"How was your business meeting?" she asked turning to give him a light peck on the cheek before lowering the heat of what she is cooking.
"Dull as always," he murmured pulling away from her as he went to pour himself a drink from the fridge.
"Something bad happened at work today?" Kagome asked as she set the table for the both of them.
"Nothing, perhaps it is just the wedding jitters," he commented with a shrug, going to help her after he had removed his cufflinks and rolled up his sleeves.
"Over 5 centuries of pent up wedding jitters?" Kagome teases as she looks at him with mischief in her eyes.
"It is more than just jitters and you know that," Shen said, taking hold of her outstretched hand as he pulled her closer to him, feeling comforted and blissful every time that she is by his side.
"You will do fine my proud Prince," she reassured him, grabbing the side of his face as she tiptoed to kiss him on the lips.
"Let's hope that you are right," Shen mumbled as he sigh. "Why are there extra settings on the table for tonight?"
"I've invited my family over for dinner, they should be on their way over to our place now," Kagome said looking at the clock, as she moved away from Shen to check on her cooking.
"You will do great, they already love you for loving me," Kagome reassured him as she took out the plates and had them ready to be plated on the counter.
"You could have told me earlier and we could have gotten a chef to cook for tonight," Shen told her with frown, not liking her to overwork herself.
"I just want to cook for the people that I love," Kagome told him with a look that gave him no room to fight with her on it.
"I should change into something more presentable to meet your family with," Shen said, looking down at himself as he worried on his appearance to them.
"You look fine Shen," Kagome told him with an exasperated sigh that was ruined by the amused smile she had on her face.
Ding Dong!
"And that must be them," Kagome said as she gave him a kiss before she went to open the door for her family.
"Mama, Jii-san, Souta!" Kagome called out happily, glad to see them now that she has the opportunity to and being able to stay for good in the time period that she belonged to.
"Hello Kagome, is your fiancé back yet?" Shen could hear Kagome's mother asking as her grandfather rambled on about the place and it being acceptable and too grand for him whilst Souta was the first to ask Kagome about everything else despite of her current conversation with her mother.
"Hello Mrs. Higurashi, Grandfather Higurashi, Souta," Shen said, stepping out to greet them formally as he came up to stand beside of Kagome, a hand around her waist to help keep himself calm.
"Oh Shen, just call me mama, after all, when you two are married we will be family," Mama Higurashi says as she hugs him warmly.
Shen always feels nervous around her family despite them knowing of him being a youkai, and had accepted him almost immediately, but her grandfather on the other hand would always still try to throw useless and powerless ofuda at him in hope that it will make him go away, something that he later found out is his quirk that he does even to random people that he doesn't know who steps into the house.
And it is great that they have come to accept him so easily and quickly as well, even if Souta would sometimes still fear him but pester him for stories about himself, the things he can do and his abilities etc. He could see where Kagome get her warmth and openness from and is glad for it that they have brought her into this World so that he could have the chance to meet her, and thus changing his life.
Dinner is a simple affair as they got to know one another better and to find out what has been going on in their life.
"Oh I can't wait to see the beautiful grand babies that you two will have," Mama Higurashi said with dreamy eyes, already excited and prepared for it.
Kagome smiled nervously as she looked at Shen, unsure how she should be replying to her mother about this.
"We will work on it after we get married," Shen replied for her with an endearing smile, reaching out to take Kagome's hand as he brought it to his lips for a kiss.
Kagome blushed to a bright shade of tomato as she hides her face with her hand, happy at what he had said. Shen saw the smile that she hid, and could only smile at it as he could only imagine now of what she will be like swelling with their child and giving him the family the family that he never thought to have.
"So exciting," Mama Higurashi said in her excitement as Souta groaned at how disturbing an image that his mother is painting for him in his head.
"I'll clear the table," Kagome said as she got up from her seat beside of Shen.
"I'll help," he told her, getting up to help with the dishes as he carried them to the kitchen where he started the water running to wash them.
Kagome leaned her head on his shoulder when she came in to put the dishes in the sink. It fills her up with so much love whenever he is near her and even more, something that she had never thought to have. They have been through many trials together, and Shen was always there whenever she was in need of saving or to get out of a tight spot, or even just for companionship.
"Shall I call for the driver to come round and wait?" Shen asked her as he continued washing the dishes, passing to her the cleaned dishes to be placed on the rack to dry.
"Perhaps a little later," she says as Kagome helped him with the cleaning up.
If anyone were to see him now, they would most probably not believe that he has changed so much, but that has much left to be left unsaid for those that does not know of his own private dealings. And it is also something that even he hides from Kagome, not wanting her to know too much and be disappointed in him.
"How many children do you want?" Kagome asked out of curiosity.
Shen dried off his hand throwing her a rakish smile as he drew her close to him, "Maybe 3 or 5?"
"That's a lot," she commented with laughing eyes
"Then perhaps we should get started after your family has left," Shen suggested with a meaningful glance towards where the rest of her family are at the moment.
"You've no shame at all do you?" Kagome asked, embarrassed at his suggestion despite them being together for so long.
"Not when I am around you," Shen told her with a kiss before he let her go to allow her to return to her family.
"Shall we call for the driver to come pick you up?" Kagome asked her family upon returning to them as she lead them to the living room to be seated more comfortably on the sofa that she had picked out with Shen for their shared apartment.
"You don't have to go to that trouble, we can always take a taxi back," Kagome's mother told Kagome.
"No trouble at all, we would want this for you all," Shen told them as he came up to slide a hand around Kagome's waist, "And I've already called for the driver to come by and wait for you," Shen informed them, having made the call just before he came out of the kitchen to join Kagome and her family.
"Oh Shen you really do not need to go through that trouble,"
"It is the least we could do...Mother," Shen said calling her mother the first time and feeling somewhat awkward about it.
"If my son insist then I will have no choice about it as well," Mama Higurashi said as Souta looked excited at the idea of being chauffeured home whilst Jii-chan was already dozing off after a meal.
"Promise you will visit us at the Shrine whenever you can," Mama Higurashi said, not at all looking to leave until they promised her.
"Of course Mother, we will be sure to visit as often as we can," Kagome looked happily between them, glad that they are all getting along so well.
"Good, I guess we should be leaving soon, if not it will be past Jii-chan's bed time," Mama Higurashi teased, effectively awakening Jii-chan who look indignantly at his daughter almost pettily.
"Come now Jii-chan you know mama is only teasing, but be sure to take good care of your health if you want to play with your great grand children in the near future," Kagome teased as she helped him up.
Shen could not help but to feel proud and pleased at her comment that she too could not wait to carry his children. When they had been seen off, Shen immediately swept Kagome off her feet, earning a laughter of delight from her as he carried her into their bedroom where he proceed to make true of his promise to her earlier.
"I love you, thank you for coming into my life," Shen whispered to her as he held her in his arms, tucking her in as he drew the coverlet up to cover their naked bodies.
"I love you too," Kagome returns the declaration as she snuggled up against his body as he adjusted them into a more comfortable position.
"Maybe we should look into getting a bigger property and start filling up the rooms with our own little ones," Shen suggested with a chuckle as Kagome swatted at him half-heartedly.
"I am not a sow Shen," she commented turning away from him.
Shen did not allow her to move far as he drew her back up against his body nuzzling against her exposed neck as he suckle on the mark that he had left there centuries ago when they first joined as mates.
"I think that it is long overdue," he murmured against her skin, causing her to shiver against him as he grinned at the way that she would react to his touches and kisses, something that made him feel powerful and happy about.
"Not until we are officially married," Kagome moaned out as she tried to move away from him but he refuses her that even.
"As you wish," he told her with a sigh as he loosen his hold, "But do be prepared that I have no intention of letting you leave our room during the honeymoon," Shen whispered that huskily into her ears, eliciting a moan from her.
"You're incorrigible at times," Kagome told him as she turn to face him.
"Only with you," he whispered, kissing her soundly.
