Chapter 2: His Mother
"But Lord Sesshoumaru, I had explained who I was earlier. Oruro Aure. Perhaps I mumbled when speaking, my deepest apo-."
Sesshoumaru kicked Oruro's back, causing him to stumble forward. "I know your name whelp." He sheathed his sword. "I asked who you are." He didn't like this guard…and it was only the first day. He didn't seem very strong…he didn't seem anything but mischievous. He hated mischievous things. Why? Because he could never figure them out. He never knew what would happen next. He hated that feeling.
Confusion was heavy, but at the same time light around the guard. Dunce. "Do not make me repeat myself." His confusion increased incredibly. Not wanting to waste anymore time on the idiot, Sesshoumaru turned on his heel and walked away. "Unworthy, of my presence."
"Well it's not like I asked you to grace me with your presence." Came the guard's gruff reply. Did he just talk back to his current Lord? Oh he was indeed an idiot.
Sesshoumaru turned around to see the guard walking away. Did he think he could just get away with that? Oh, he was sorely mistaken. He would give him hell. No one disrespects and brush's off Lord Sesshoumaru. No one. Immediately he was behind the younger man, who obviously sensed him there and turned around just as fast. Sesshoumaru raised a hand and brought it down.
Hard.
"Hopefully this will teach you to respect those above you…your kind are nothing but the dirt from underneath my boot." The disgrace was still standing. "It would do you well to keep your distance from me." Growling lowly as a warning, Sesshoumaru once again turned and walked.
~Sess*Kag~
Ugh, he hated that one. No, it was stronger than hate; it was an unbelieving loathing for him. Yes, that's right. His hate for him burned with the passion of a thousand suns, even more. He was repulsive, how? He'd figure that out in a matter of days. That is if the idiot made it that far. Sesshoumaru snorted, highly unlikely. He probably couldn't even hold a sword properly. And if that was the case, Sesshoumaru wouldn't necessarily blame him. Even though he did loathe the boy. It was the humans that were at fault. They couldn't train a dog to fetch. Let alone teach a youkai the basics in battle.
He needed to stop thinking about this; he needed to think about something else. The trials, yes the trials. The first would be defense. In fact they all would be about defense. First, how well they could defend the princess. They go up against, some level 1 youkai. The second test would see how well the princess' could defend themselves against level 1 youkai should anything happen. Then the levels would go up to 10, and then it would be him. In between, during breaks, lunch, breakfast, or dinner he would see how they fair when it came to etiquette. If either the guard or princess turned out to be a slob in anyway they would be immediately disqualified.
He grinned. He could already imagine their faces, when being told they lost. He would wallo-
Knock.
"Father, enter." How could he become so distracted to not realize his own father was standing before his door? He pinched the bridge of his nose, trying to calm his nerves.
InuTaisho opened the door, a sly grin plastered on his face. He sauntered into the room, lightly closing the door behind him. Sesshoumaru frowned, why was his father acting so cheerful. "Sesshoumaru, my boy! How are you?"
His eyes narrowed, dangerously. Venom leaked from his voice. "What do you want?" He started to drum on his desk with his fingers.
InuTaisho feigned a look innocence and hurt. "To treat your father like this…how would your mother feel?" he hit a nerve.
"Don't you dare." The words came out, intending to be threatening but instead came out as a plea.
InuTaisho lifted his hand and exposed his collar, his fingers inching closer and closer to a magenta moon laying there.
Sesshoumaru let out a growl, "No."
His father smiled even more. "You need to be taught a lesson…"
"Stop!"
The elder youkai touched the mark. A slight tremor running through him. Suddenly a demoness was by his side. Long Silver tresses, fell past her shoulders. Violet irises found themselves upon InuTaisho. Slim and curvy figure, a frown marring her face. Also adorning her face was one clean magenta streaks, on either side of her face as well as a violet moon on her forehead. She held up a clawed hand, an-
Slap.
"Itai! Nao-koi!! That hurt…" the previous held his the back of his head, rubbing it softly. "I ju-."
"Silence."
"Yes, Naomi-koi."
Though Sesshoumaru was totally and utterly terrified by his mother he loved her little appearances. She did have his father whipped. So it was quite hilarious to see the Inu-Legend cowering and bowing down to his firstborn's mother. He let out a snigger, automatically catching the attention of his mother. She narrowed her eyes at him. Sesshoumaru repressed a shiver.
"Sesshoumaru." Her voice was so warm unlike her current features, which had eventually died out to match. She smiled, pushing his father away from her. She held her arms out.
"Kaa-san…" Sesshoumaru rose from his chair and hurriedly made his away around his desk and to his mother. "Sesshoumaru missed you…"
Naomi laughed. "I live just down the hall Sesshoumaru. You could have visited me anytime you wanted." She rubbed his back, ignoring the now whining InuTaisho. "Now," she ushered him back to his seat, and smiled at InuTaisho. "What's the problem?"
The older man beamed. "Sesshoumaru was mean to the guests! He kicked one and said bad things to him!" His eyes brimmed with artificial tears. "And he threatened me!!"
It wasn't very hard to believe that his father was this much of a baby and a tattletale…but this was ridiculous. "Is that so?" He looked at his still smiling mother…that's a good sign. "Then I'll have to teach him some manners." She turned around and patted his father on the head. "Good work Touga…the sake's in my third cabinet drawer." She tossed his father a key. The former TaiYoukai dashed from the room, key in hand, cackling like a mad man.
"Come Sesshoumaru, let us train."
~Sess*Kag~
Sesshoumaru couldn't feel his arms. His throat burned with poison, which he should have been immune to. Damn woman always experimenting. He coughed lightly little specks of blood following. He tried to reach for tokijin. But he was still unable to feel his arms, it's like she broke them or something. "Kaa-san I-."
Naomi frowned, she looked perfectly fine, and here Sesshoumaru was looking like he was fighting his father. "Have you learned your lesson?" Lesson? What was she rambling on about!? He hadn't done anything wrong. Oh of course, he'd almost forgotten. So what he'd abused a guest. He was pretty sure the guard would've died before the end of the contest anyway. He scoffed lightly. "…I see. Stand Up."
Not wanting to anger the violent woman again, he stood. "Turn around." He turned. The next thing he knew there was a sharp pain in his back. He stumbled forward. Damn, she didn't have to kick so hard. He thinks she popped something out of place. "Kaa-sa-."
"Do you know what I've just done? I did exactly what you did. And just to make it more authentic, I'll spew cruel words from my mouth." Tch, as if words could hurt him.
~Sess*Kag~
"There, there I'm sorry Sesshoumaru, I didn't mean it…" Naomi rubbed soothing circles into her sons back, reassuring him. "Now you must realize how much words can really hurt."
He nodded into her kimono, sniffing quietly. "Are you okay?" She pried his now healed arms away from her torso. He nodded slowly. "Good, now run along." She urged him out of the dojo, his stoic mask slipping back on. Naomi sighed.
Yo. :D Now, now, before you kill me I would like you to know that I've had an epiphany…well not really. But I'm going to update every OTHER week. Since I can't update 6 times in the same week… D: This goes for the rest of my stories. Oh Yeah, and you want to know why this chapter is so short? It's because I just wanted to introduce Sesshoumaru's mother. Not much Kagome in this chapter… Oh yeah, guess what…I can count from 1 to 10 in Japanese!! XD I was so proud of myself. And I know how to make a 1 in kanji "-"Well…I think that's it. Yeah it's basically just a hyphen.
Anyways, I also discovered that when you're using the… hiragana you use "ha"…I think. Only a few words do you use "wa". Like Watashi. You use "wa" still. I'm confusing myself…
Anywho, Bye! :D
