Ok This is the only chapter I'm going to do this unless someone asks me a question...
MsDesperate: Thank you so much for the review. My first review and I was so happy.1: I can't say too much without giving it away though I can say they will meet each other again and Sashiko will do all in her power to return to her family, without jeopardizing a close companion.2: I actually have thought of it…but I don't what him pregnant during another battle like I did the last one…3: Hehe if I told you it would ruin the surprise. Sorry.4: Well…you'll have to read to find out….
raikouinazuma: OK, ok I updated lol. Thank you for your review.
FlayingFoxFire: I'm glad you liked the beginning I wasn't to sure of it myself. The review meant a lot so thank you.
Inu15kags: Sashiko would not take orders from Naraku unless there was a very important reason. It will me mentioned within the next 2 chapters why she obeys him. Thanks for the review.
Princess Sin: Thanks for the review…actually I'm not completely sure what he's looking for. Probably something to gain more power to fight Inuyasha and the rest, but for what he's actually after….I didn't decide yet. lol.
Ryeka: Hehe thanks for the review. I like all the kids, though its hard to keep everyone in the conversation.
Teiboi: lol! I'm glad you like the story. Thanks for the review. Yeah they have "4" kids now, and I don't see anymore coming for awhile.
Darkwolvesbite: Thanks for the review. Yeah I know some parts of the chapter were weird.
Finalsoragirl14: Thank you for reviewing. I'm glad you liked Magia as well. I'm happy your friend told you of this story and that you reviewed. I love new reviewers.
Ok now that that's over. Welcome to chapter to of Wiezien. For those who don't know it means Prisoner in "Magia" language. This chapter is way different than what I had planned but I'm not complaining. Its moving way faster than Magia I think. Has anyone ever noticed that Naraku's detachments have like white or Lavender hair? Why is that he has black hair? That confused me but I needed it for this chapter of the story. I hope this chapter doesn't seem as pointless as the first.
Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha but all the OC's are mine! As well as the plot.
Redone 8/23/09
The sun began to rise in the East. The morning silence was peaceful, as the land danced with different colors of orange, pink, red caused by the sun. Grass and flowers sparkled with morning dew. Everything was very still…not even the birds chirped.
"I hate silences!" Onyx shouted, sitting outside with Wojna. Wojna cringed as birds flew from tree's and animals ran deeper into the forest.
"I can tell." Wojna stated, shaking her head at her sister's agitation. Onyx started to twitch until birds started to chirp then she relaxed.
"Good, noise!" Onyx cheered, doing a little dance. Wojna shrugged and joined her. That's how the others found them. In the middle of the garden dancing like idiots. Koichi's eye was actually twitching….what the hell were they doing? They both turned to see everyone staring at them.
"Ahem…"Wojna coughed, scratching the back of her head. Onyx kept dancing in place. She didn't care who saw.
"Scary people funny," Akina decided, watching Onyx. Wojna smiled at Akina, though her smile seemed brittle. Onyx smiled widely before bending down, holding her arms out to Akina. Not one to be shy, Akina ran into her arms, laughing.
Onyx held the little dog demon in her arm expertly, as if it was a natural thing. Wojna looked at her sister, who was only staring at Akina.
"You remind me so much like Minako." She whispered to the child. Inuyasha eyebrows furrowed in confusion.
"Who's Minako?" he asked. Onyx's eyes widened, she didn't realize she spoke out loud. Wojna shot a glared at her sister, fire and pain burned in her eyes.
"She was….a little girl at our village. Dragon children are rare, twins rarer yet, hence why there are so few left. It didn't help when we were nearly wiped out by Naraku." Onyx explained.
"So this little girl was killed by Naraku?" Koichi questioned. Her seriousness scared him.
"No, she was killed before that. We were attacked by another Dragon clan who wanted our territory. It was this attack and the loss of the only 4 children to be born in the last 300 years that caused Father and Uncle to build Magia. A safe haven for anyone, anything." Onyx clarified, quietly.
"4 kids go bye bye." Leiko whimpered, her little voice sad.
Wojna nodded, still glaring at Onyx, "Aki, Hajime, Ryuu, and…Minako. Three boys and one girl." She concluded. To show she didn't want to hear anymore of it, she began to walk away, towards the other side of the garden. The others followed.
"What are we doing today?" Koichi asked looking at his parents, dropping the earlier subject. Wojna stopped and turned, also wanting to know.
"I thought we could take the kids to the creek to play." Inuyasha announced, making all the little kids cheer. Koichi and Kisho just shrugged, not caring one way or the other.
"Are we having a picnic?" Onyx wondered, putting Akina down. Inuyasha shook his head.
"No, we all just ate….did you two eat?" The twins glanced at each other. As if they were having a silent conversation.
"Yeah." They said simultaneously. Koichi raised an eyebrow. In all truth, he's never seen the dragon twins eat…not once. None of them have. Even when they chase rabbits they never catch them.
Kouga just shrugged, "Lets get going." The kids ran ahead as the adults and teenagers talked while walking behind. They frowned when they noticed the kids stopped once they entered the clearing. They stopped right behind their children and saw a little boy on the other side. He was squatted on the bank of the creek with a stick, swirling around the water.
He looked to be about 2. He had shoulder length Silver hair which was beginning to fall from his face while he was in a crouched over position. He was wearing a white Kimono with red trim and black flowing designs all over it. He had elf like ears, much like Kagura's.
Akina took a few steps forward until she was at the bank on her side, "Hey!"
The boy looked up surprised then anger…probably because he was caught off guard. His dark red eyes were wide, "Hi…" He muttered just loud enough to hear. The others approached the beach and sat down. The kids ran into the water and looked at the boy.
"Wanna play?" Leiko asked. The boy looked confused for a few minutes before nodding, uncertain. He wadded into the water. The kids splashed around while the adults sat on the shore. Even Kisho and Koichi joined them in the water. Everyone else sat, watching the newcomer play with their children. Even though he was a child he couldn't be trusted. Naraku had detachments who were children before and that taught them a lesson. Even though Naraku is dead.
Eventually they became tired and made their way to the parents, who had set out blankets courtesy of Wojna and Onyx. The kids collapsed on the blankets.
"So what's your name?" Yasuo asked, looking at the little boy. The adults all shook their heads. Only children could play with someone for hours without asking who they were. Oh the innocence of children.
"Me Akina!" Akina yelled, laughing, "I two."
"I am Leiko," She announced, "I'm three."
"I'm Yasuo, and I'm five." He said before saying who everyone else was, " That's my brother, Koichi. Akina is my little sister. That's my Papa, Inuyasha, and my Tosan, Sesshomaru. Leiko is my friend and Kisho is her brother. Her parents are Ayame, and Kouga." he turned to the dragon twins, "…Um…that's Onyx and Wojna…they're just scary."
The small boy nodded, "I'm Hiroki. I'm three." They were startled by his age. He was very small for his age, but he spoke very clearly.
"Nice to meet you," Akina laughed, holding out her hand. Hiroki shook it. Yasuo sniffed the air but couldn't recognize what kind of demon Hiroki was. It was like he had no scent beside a recognization scent. He frowned but didn't comment on it.
"Where is your parents?" Leiko asked, "Didn't you come here with them?" Hiroki shuffled the ground around with his foot. He looked a little uncomfortable with the question.
"Daddy and Mommy don't get along. I've never seen them together besides when Daddy wants Mommy to do something." He stated sadly, "I came here by myself. Daddy was working and Mommy left the house all mad." He smiled, awkwardly.
Leiko smiled, "My mom and dad fight too." She announced, "But then Mom hits Dad and Dad goes to hide."
"I do not!" Kouga yelled indigently. Ayame just rolled her eyes. Inuyasha tried not to laugh and Kisho shook his head. It was true.
"Mommy never hits Daddy," Hiroki seemed horrified with the idea, "Mommy refuses to fight in front of me but I know she doesn't like Daddy. She only sticks around because of me." He looked so crest-fallen.
Koichi decided it was time for a topic change, "So what do you do for fun, Hiroki?"
Hiroki seemed to contemplate this, a small smile appearing on his face "Sometimes I go to the creek. I also play with my nanny when she isn't too busy doing things for my Daddy. When I'm really lucky my mommy will play with me. I like that because its one of the only times she smiles. She trains me and its fun." he frowned, "There's no other kids around me so usually I'm with adults or by myself. Daddy won't play with me though. He says I'm just a pawn….I don't know what that means but it makes Mommy cry." He looked like he was going to cry himself. His eyes were confused, stuck in a world he didn't fully understand.
"Are you an only child?" Kisho asked.
"Um…I have half siblings. They're all older though." He sighed before remembering something else, "Oh, I'm an only child now but Daddy says if Mommy doesn't behave he'll have to show her and I get might get a new sibling." Hiroki obviously didn't understand what that meant, he sounded optimistic by the idea.
Inuyasha, Sesshomaru and the other adults paled at that news. His father rapes his mother? Inuyasha looked at Sesshomaru and found he had a disturbed look on his face as well. The kids went back to playing and the adults talked.
"That poor kid," Ayame exclaimed, "That can't be a good place to grow up in." Inuyasha shook his head.
"At least he doesn't understand what's going on. At least they keep it away from him."
"But still…" Sesshomaru stated, "You can't help but wonder. Are they mates? Was it a forced mating? Or simply a good thing gone bad over time. There are a lot of factors in this."
Onyx nodded, "They could be like dragon demons." They looked at her confused.
"Dragon demon's are more unique in the field of mating. When we want to have children we find a male that meets are ideas of what we want our children like. If you're loud you find someone who is more quiet in hopes the child gets that gene. When you find the right man you mate. The females in the clan raise the children, no emotional needs from the father just physical like training. Only if you find a male that you want to spend the rest of your life with and vice versa do you mate for life. Then your family is more like how your guys lives are." Onyx explained.
"No offense, but that is one fucked up system." Kouga replied.
"I know, but dragon demon's don't have children easily anyways." Wojna continued, "In three hundred years we might get 2 children born…only if we're lucky. When me and Onyx were born there hadn't been a birth in more than 700 years."
Onyx snorted, "And people wonder why the dragon demon's are dying out."
Wojna looked down, "Naraku didn't help the matter much." The conversation stopped when the kids came back. They noticed Hiroki was crossing the creek.
"He had to go home," Kisho explained as they watched the little boy disappear into the woods. The sun was beginning to set. Good thing everyone here was a demon otherwise missing lunch would be very bad.
"I hope he gets home alright. He's an awfully small fella." Ayame reflected. Koichi shrugged at the comment.
"He's done it before."
Inuyasha bent down and picked up a wet wiggling Akina, "We better get home as well." Kouga nodded grabbing Leiko. The others followed not realizing Wojna and Onyx hesitated behind. Wojna looked back at the spot the kid disappeared at before looking at Onyx. Onyx bit her lip in confusion.
"Yo, dragon twits, You're falling behind!" Kisho shouted from ahead. Onyx and Wojna shrugged at each other and ran to catch up with the rest of the group.
-In the woods-
Hiroki ran through the woods dodging tree's and other obstacles that got in his way. He was too worried about running into tree's that he failed to see a person blocking his path. He crashed straight into them.
He backed off a few steps until he saw who it was then he ran to her and hugged her. She bent down and hugged him back. The woman was a demon of some sort. She had long lavender/silver hair, and black eyes. She also had pointed elf like ears. She wore a dark purple kimono with gold woven in.
"What are you doing out here alone?" She asked, a hint of compassion in her voice.
"I was playing by the creek," Hiroki stated, smiling.
"Well you must get home. Your father wants to talk to you." The woman said heading towards a palace. Hiroki followed obediently behind.
They entered a room and a shadowed figure sat on the other side. The stopped about 7 feet away from the figure.
"Leave Nariko." The figure commanded.
"Yes Master Naraku." Nariko replied, bowing before walking away. Hiroki watched her leave, before returning his gaze to Naraku.
"Daddy…" He began.
"Where were you?" He snapped angrily, cutting Hiroki off.
"I was just by the creek having some fun with some other kids." He explained hoping to please his father. Naraku walked up to him sedately, before slapping him with such a force he flew a few feet back.
"I never gave you permission to leave the premises. How dare you disobey me!" Naraku hissed.
"I'm sorry father," Hiroki slurred out, his lip already starting to swell. Naraku approached him again and this time sniffed him.
"Inuyasha…..?" He seemed confused by the smell.
"I was playing with his children," Hiroki whispered, thinking he angered his father further. He shrank back further into the wall he was against.
"They let you play with their children?" He asked, just to be certain. Hiroki nodded. Naraku smiled, before grabbing the boy and actually hugging him.
"Good." He announced, patting the boy on the head, "Now leave and clean up your face." Hiroki nodded, before moving away from his father and practically running out of the room. He closed to the door and turned to see Kagura and Sashiko walking down the hallway towards him. Both looked startled by his swollen face.
"What happened?" Kagura asked, as Sashiko picked up the little boy. Sashiko grabbed his face and was checking the damage.
"Daddy got mad," He stated, letting her check his injuries. Sashiko frowned as Kagura looked confused.
"What did you do?" She asked.
"I told him I was playing with some children and he got mad." He said before frowning, "Then he hugged me when he found out they were Inuyasha's children. How does Daddy know Inuyasha?" He asked Sashiko, who looked surprised and worried. Nariko appeared just then.
Sashiko put Hiroki down and Nariko took him. She walked him down to a room to retreat his wounds. Sashiko, herself, went into Naraku's room. She closed the door only to see Naraku's smiling face….it was not a pretty sight. A cold shiver when through her.
"I want Hiroki to go to the creek again. I want him to play with those children again." Sashiko looked startled, "When he does….Kagura and you make your presence known."
Sashiko opened her mouth.
"Do not even start to argue, Sashiko. You know the consequences of such actions." Sashiko's mouth snapped shut as well as her eyes. She turned to leave.
"I'm going to go talk to Kagura," She stated walking out without being respectful to Naraku. Though she had to listen, she didn't need to bend to his will completely. She would not put innocent lives in danger for her own gain…that is why she obeys him.
She walked out of the room to discover Kagura and Nariko sitting with Hiroki in his room. She sat down as well. 'You okay?' Kagura mouthed. Sashiko nodded. While here she discovered Kagura's own wishes to be free and has become close friends with her. They both had no control over their lives.
"You better go to bed, Hiroki. You've had a busy day." Nariko whispered to the small boy. The boy nodded and snuggled closer to the bedding. The three demon's left his room and stood in the hall. Sashiko explained the situation to them. Everyone looked grim.
"Do you think we can fight them?" Sashiko asked.
"The more important question, Sashiko. Do you think you could attack and maybe even kill your own family?" Nariko questioned.
"I know I can't but what choice do I have?"
"Like the rest of us, you don't." Kagura's bleak answer left a silence in the air.
