Chapter 4: Enter Sesshomaru, And Kadaj's Memories
(((:Previously:)))
''Let me find my true love...'' She slowly laid down onto the bed and closed her eyes, completely unaware of green-cat-like eyes watching her every move ''He's right here,'' He whispered...
Serenia laid asleep on her bed eventually Kadaj and his crew left unwillingly, to set things up, they noticed that one of her friends were checking up on her every now and then. The four were talking
and helping out with making dinner when Inuyasha's phone rang ''Hello? Oh hey...Oh hold on... Hey Kagome will it be okay if Sesshomaru comes over?'' ''Sure! Hi big brother!'' ''She said sure and hi big brother,
he said hello and that he'll be over soon.'' After they hung up, he walked up to the fridge and tossed Koga a bottle of water, and got one himself ''Think we should wake Serenia?'' ''Not yet,'' Kagome said as she was
standing over the stove checking the pasta, ''I feel bad for Sesshomaru, loosing his business because of Kikyo.'' ''Yeah but it was going to go under anyway, I hope she can live with herself..'' Growled Koga, ''That's
the thing I believe that she can.'' Kagome told them as dinner was close to being done ''Koga, can you hand me that?'' Pointing to he fork ''Sure,'' Thank you.'' ''I'll get Serenia,'' Cloud said, (Knocking on the door) ''I'll
get it.'' Inuyasha told them opening the door to reveal his older half brother Sesshomaru, who was wearing a pair of khaki pants that fit him perfectly and a white silk buttoned shirt and he had on a pair of comfy shoes that
were white and his silver/white hair was down to complete his outfit he had markings of a cresent moon on his forehead.
After inviting Sesshomaru in, Kagome ran to hug him ''Big brother!'' ''Sister,'' They hugged in truth yeah Sesshomaru and Kagome have a brother sister relationship, ''I hope you are alright,'' As they released each
other so that Sesshomaru could hug his brother and shake hands with Koga. Kagome offered to take his bag, ''Oh thank you,'' ''Would you like to stay for dinner?'' Koga asked ''There's plenty,'' Kagome said as she smiled and set
his bag on the sofa, ''Of course,'' Walking further inside they all saw his big fluffy tail ''Nice tail,'' ''Where's yours?'' ''Concealer charms,'' Kagome looked at Koga ''I liked your tail Koga.'' ''If you like it,'' He removed it, and his brown tail
appeared; their attention was turned to Cloud and Serenia walking down the hallway into the livingroom where everyone was at but when Serenia walked further into the room gold met purple...
*Good mother of God! He's beautiful!* Her throat almost went dry, he was taller than Inuyasha, *My heavens... It this an angel?* Sesshomaru thought to himself ''Kagome are you going to introduce us?'' Inquired Sesshomaru
''Oh yes where are my manners? Sesshomaru, this is my best friend Serenia, Serenia this is my adopted brother Sesshomaru...'' Sesshomaru casually walked over to her, as Serenia was slowly picking her hand up ''I-it's nice to meet you.'' She
told him as she mentally cursed herself for sttutering, holding her smaller hand she looked up at him he was too big! Moisting her tongue on her lips, as he slowly bent his head and lifting her hand to his gentle mouth and placing a light kiss on it,
''The pleasure is mine, Serenia... your name is very beautiful.'' Serenia's heart was beating fast she was trying to stop it, thankfully she was able to; ''dinner's ready!'' Kagome annouced as she placed the last plate down on the kitchen table, ''I
think the table's extensions are here, Koga can you help me?'' ''Sure Kagome.'' Those two were getting along well they all saw it, they were laughing and joking everyone walked to the table and choosing their seats.
Cloud sat by Inuyasha, who sat bythe otherside of Koga, sitting by Kagome, sitting next to Serenia who sat by Sesshomaru; ''Kagome, this food looks great!'' Inuyasha said ''Smells good too,'' Drooled Koga ''Keep your tongue in your
mouth, wolfy.'' ''Bite me,'' ''No thanks,'' One look from Kagome shut them up, as she was passing the salads and breads out then the pasta; it was chicken fettuccine alfredo! Kagome smiled as Koga stood up to hold her chair out for her, ''Thank you
Koga-kun and they say chivalry is dead.'' They sat and ate, and talked and laughed; it was the most fun that Serenia had in awhile until Inuyasha had to open his big mouth.
''Hey Serenia?'' ''Yes?'' ''How about you sing for us?'' Kagome stared ''Why should I sing Inuyasha?'' ''Let Sesshomaru hear your voice, Sess I'm telling you Serenia here has a voice of an angel and a sirene put together!'' Serenia wished that
Inuyasha was closer so that she can bust a plate over his hard skull; everyone was cheering her on. Slowly getting up, and walking to the center of the livingroom, ''What song will you sing?'' Inquired Kagome ''Whatever I think of...'' Smiling a bit ''Okay
I have the song...''
*(* My Immortal By Evanescence*)*
I'm so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
'Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
[Chorus:]
When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me
You used to captivate me by your resonating light
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face – it haunts my once pleasant dreams
Your voice – it chased away all the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase
[Chorus]
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along
[Chorus]
...me, me, me.
As the words flowed from her voice became an instrument like an artists paints and brush, she barely opened her eyes always clasping her hands together; one of her favorite songs, by her
favorite band. After the song had ended she then opened her eyes and everyone was clapping Kagome stood up and said ''Sing I Dreamed a Dream from Les Miserables!'' Smiling she knew that
Serenia would never say no to her:
There was a time when men were kind
When their voices were soft
And their words inviting
There was a time when love was blind
And the world was a song
And the song was exciting
There was a time
Then it all went wrong
I dreamed a dream in times gone by
When hope was high
And life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Then I was young and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted
There was no ransom to be paid
No song unsung
No wine untasted
But the tigers come at night
With their voices soft as thunder
As they tear your hope apart
And they turn your dream to shame
He slept a summer by my side
He filled my days with endless wonder
He took my childhood in his stride
But he was gone when autumn came
And still I dream he'll come to me
That we'll live the years together
But there are dreams that cannot be
And there are storms we cannot weather
I had a dream my life would be
So different from this hell I'm living
So different now from what it seemed
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed
Standing ovation from everyone in that room, Serenia had a rare gift, and she wanted to use it to entertain and making a connection with people; seeing Sesshomaru clap what was this feeling? A crush?
She smiled as she slowly bowed alittle, ''That was the most beautiful performace I have ever had the pleasure of sitting through, you have a remarkable gift Serenia.'' ''T-thank you Sesshomaru, Kagome has the real
talent painting and dancing,'' ''And both of you have martial arts backgrounds.'' Cloud told them ''Well just incase of some crazed people get by Inuyasha and Cloud here then we can take care of ourselves.''
''Serenia is good at sword play,'' Waving her small hand in a dismissive notion, ''It was a hobby, and it's something that I love to stick with,'' She admitted, Kagome happened to look over at the wall clock 6:30
''Wow time flies when you are having fun, come one Koga let's get you settled, Sesshomaru if you like you can stay the night.'' Not taking his eyes fully off of Serenia, ''Thank you Kagome I will take you up on that
offer.'' ''Hey Sess, how's appartment hunting?'' ''Not fairing well,'' ''Say Kags, you have one room rented right? And there's an extra room down the hall on the opposite side of the livingroom; even has a bathroom too!''
''Kagome, Serenia, I don't wish to cause an uproar,'' ''Nonsense Sesshomaru, stay with us!'' Serenia said *what the fuck am i saying?!* ''We just have a couple of ground rules, is that okay?'' Seeing both Koga and
Sesshomaru knod, ''Rule one: We do our own chores and that it's just basic pick up, Rule two: Serenia and I have rehersals and that if you guys being home company try to be quiet.'' Kagome ended the rule speech, as she
placed the last of the dishes away, ''I can do that,'' Came Koga's voice ''I will as well.'' Sesshomaru chimed in after Koga, ''Say Serenia why don't show my older brother around?'' Inuyasha offered she smirked a bit ''Oh and
deny me the 'pleasure' of staying with you in the same room? Oh why easier to get to your neck...'' While taking Sesshomaru's offered arm and walking him towards her's and Kagome's rooms ''This is Kagome's room,'' ''I like
the color,'' ''Me too it's simple yet not boring, and just down here is Koga's new room, and here is come spare closet space.'' Walking more across the hallway, ''This is my room.'' As they walked into the white and purple room,
''And here's a computer station,'' She started ''There's one in ur room I believe, and in Koga's and Kagome's as well, umm would you like to see more?'' Serenia offered, seeing him knod in a 'yes' motion,
Unknowingly to them the familar pair of green-cat-like eyes were watching them, ''Okay, um, follow me.'' As she took a step she tripped not remembering that her jeans were longer now cause she wasn't wearing her
taller shoes, Sesshomaru reacted and caught her around the waist. She turned her head slightly as he gently placed her back on her feet, not fully letting go of her waist; Kadaj looked in a haze of anger how dare that man touch
what wasn't his?! Not really noticing that Naraku was by the youngest of the brothers ''Looks like you may have a rival, we may have act faster than we thought.'' ''You know this dead man?'' ''Hai, his name is Sesshomaru Taisho he
is one of the sons of Inu No Taisho, and his calm demeanor is decieving...'' Naraku explained as they were watching Sesshomaru finally loosen his grip on Serenia; but he didn't back away from her, he while slowly reaching up to push
some of her soft fallen hair away from her face...
Kadaj turned around fighting tears, fighting the urge to go in there and kill this Sesshomaru and re-claim what was his! Naraku grabbed the youngest of the Jenovia brothers and walked away, ''This is not the time nor the place,
our plan will happen.'' Ushering him into Naraku's long black limo, '' My manor,'' Naraku ordered ''Yes sir,'' Came an older man's voice; Kadaj was staring out of the tinted window oddly enough the ride was calming not nearly as calming as
Serenia as the long car remembering the first time that he saw Serenia he thought that he had strayed into heaven or even a dream:
Kadaj's Flashback:
Him and his two older brothers were always walking and telling the people about Mother Jenovia's business, otherwise than Inu No Taisho and Rufus Shinra all three of those business were the most powerful, he happened to look over to
his left, to see the most beautiful girl that he had ever seen in his life! She was wearing a pink and black camo mini skirt and a pink tank top and she was wearing simple black sandals; she was running as if she was scared; he then saw the reason a big
angery man was chasing her ''You bitch! Get back here!'' Running as far and as fast as she could, falling hard to the ground and cutting her knees bad and looking over her shoulder to see him coming ''You little skank!'' She screamed and tried to cover up
the best way she knew how, she braced herself for the impact but it never came. Looking up Kadaj and his two brothers were beating the man down, she was shaking the man was then tossed threw an old door from an abanduned building by Loz, Kadaj
turned his attention on the girl on the ground, he went to her ''Are you okay?'' ''Y-yes,'' ''Think you can stand?'' She tried and fell her knees were scrapped bad, ''Mind if I pick you up?'' Seeing her become hesitant, ''I'll be gentle.'' He promised,
seeing her knod 'yes' watching him tenderly put his arm under her knees and his other arm around her back.
Lifting her as if she weighed nothing, ''Am I hurting you?'' ''No, thank you for saving me whatever your reason is; where are you taking me?'' ''To fix your knees and take you home,'' Noticing she advoiding the subject on 'home' ''Do you have
a home?'' ''No,'' ''What about your parents?'' ''You three beat up my father.'' ''What of your mother?'' Asked the older one with longer hair, ''She died when she was having me.'' The two were pretty silent ''I'm sorry to hear that,'' Came the one that was
carrying her, ''What is your name?'' She asked him, ''I am Kadaj, this one is Yazoo, and the taller one is Loz.'' Smiling a little ''My name is Angel Serenity, I prefer to be called Serenia.'' All three agreed to call her Serenia, when they
had gotten to the brothers' house, Yazoo opened the door Loz walked in first then Kadaj with his arms full then Yazoo fully entered their home.
Kadaj was carrying her upstairs to his room, opening the door and kicking it shut, ''No one will bother you?'' ''No,'' ''Do you have any other family?'' Asked Serenia ''Yes, I have an older brother and a mother;'' ''Can I ask about your father?'' Kadaj
shrugged ''I never knew him,'' Serenia bit her lip, taking her into the bathroom and gently setting her on the counter and taking out some items; looking back in her face and noticing that she wasn't really looking at him placing two gloved fingers under her chin
tipping it back up to completely look at him and gently push some fallen hair from her face by tucking it behind her ear. That's when he saw it, the black eye, her beautiful purple eyes, one of them was black and blue; ''Did he?'' ''Yes,'' ''I'm going to place your legs
on the counter fully, be still as you can.'' She obeyed, carefully placing a couple of towels under her knees, taking out some cleaner, ''This will hurt abit,'' She stayed quiet as he worked gently and tried not to harm her, she kinda winced abit here and there.
As quickly as he began he was done and gently picking her back up and taking her into his room to seat her on his bed, it was comfy, she looked around his room it was medium sized and black she then realized that his bed was a circle with black silk sheets.
She then looked up to see Kadaj taking his sword from its place, ''Your sword is beautiful,'' Looking back at her ''Thank you,'' Placing it by his door, and walking over to her, and kneeling infront of her on the floor by the bed ''How old are you?'' He asked her ''17 going
to be 18, and you?'' Looking her in the face ''I just turned 19,'' Hearing distant calling of his name ''Kadaj! Mother and Sephiroth are here!'' Loz had hollered from downstairs they all knew that when Kadaj shuts himself in his room most of the time, don't bother him unless important,
''I'll be back, stay here, you will be safe,'' Running downstairs, ''Hello mother and Sephiroth.'' His older brother looked at him, ''Hello Kadaj,'' He said in his usual cold voice ''Kadaj, Yazoo told us that you helped a girl today;'' Seeing her youngest son knod yes ''May I see her?'' ''I'll be a moment,''
''Go on get her, my child.''He ran back upstairs, as he opened the door she looked up at him and she obeyed she didn't move; walking over to her ''My mother would like to meet you, Serenia,'' ''Okay,'' Picking her up again and carrying her out of the room and down the stairs.
Walking into the livingroom Serenia saw his mother she basically had the same feautures as her sons did, silvery white hair pale skin and cat-like-green eyes, she smilied softly, ''Loz, get a chair for the poor thing.'' Her voice was gentle, ''Yes mother,'' The second
oldest obeyed, Loz had placed the chair beside his mother and Kadaj placed Serenia in it. The older woman looked at her, ''Hello, sweetheart,'' ''H-hello...'' She said it so quietly she could barely hear, ''I'm sorry dear I could not hear you.'' ''Hello,'' The older woman's voice was
haunting and bell-like, ''What is your name?'' ''My name is Angel Serenity, I prefer to be called Serenia.'' ''Either name suites you,'' Yazoo told her ''Yazoo.'' ''Sorry mother,'' ''Sons are a handful, my name is Jenovia I prefer you call me mother,'' Seeing the young girl knod, ''May I
ask were your parents are?'' ''My mother died when she was having me, and my father was going to beat me up; and Kadaj Yazoo and Loz came to my rescue.'' ''You have no real family, dear?'' She asked sadly, Serenia shook head 'no' and looked ''You poor thing, why does your father
beat you?'' Jenovia knew a liar and Serenia wasn't lying ''I don't know honestly, it gets worse when he's drunk;'' ''Where and when does he hit you?'' Asked Sephiroth, ''Whenever he wants, he really started to beat me at seven years old.'' ''Why?'' Asked Yazoo, Kadaj placed his hand on her
shoulder.
He needed to touch her to center himself, ''I'll beathe wrong, it got worse when I wouldn't give his friends a *birthday gift*'' ''What do you mean by that?'' Asked Mother Jenovia, noticing that Serenia didn't want to ''Dear you might feel better,'' ''He wanted... me to sleep with... his friend.''
Serenia almost cried, Kadaj's hand that wasn't on her shoulder was twicthing. Mother Jenovia heard enough, ''Sephiroth,'' ''Mother,'' ''Serenia will not leave without one of my sons to protect you.'' Her sweet voice had changed to cold as Sephiroth's, ''Mother, can I take Serenia back upstairs?'' Kadaj
asked ''Yes, the poor thing to relax and rest, later I'll arrange it so that you will be safe.'' Kadaj picked her back up and carrying her back up, when they were out of earshot ''Poor little Serenia, all those years without a scrap of motherly love and affection... I will see to that my sons.'' Her voice was
soft and gentle again they smiled.
Kadaj kicked the door closed again, and carried her back on the bed he soon joined her... since that day two years ago she was by his side, two months passed and Kadaj and Serenia were dating and they had the house to themselves jamming out to Finger 11 Songs, the two were on the bed
kissing. His hand started to move lower, she broke the kiss ''What is it, baby?'' He whispered heavy ''I-I'm scared Kadaj,'' She whispered with her head lowered abit, as Suffocate ended, Panic Attack was playing and it was on repeat. Gently grabbing her chin to look at him, ''Serenia, I'll never hurt you.''
His mouth was inches from her's ''I-I've never...'' He was going to be her first? He slowly started to make little kisses down her neck, feeling her shudder under him, ''Do you trust me?'' He whispered against her throat's collum ''Y-yes...'' She whispered, he slowly took off her black tank top, and seeing a
red silk bra, he greedily attacked her chest; she clung to him his hands that weren't gloved today, started to removed the straps to her bra, carefully showing her plump breasts. Her blushing increased, her heart pounded in her ears, he stood poker straight on his knees and plled her in a sitting position to
remove her bra as soon as her bra was taken care of, he then felt her small smooth hands on his leather outfit.
She touched him through the outifit, ''I want to touch you,'' She whispered, slowly moving her hands to remove the top half of his leather outfit after a couple of moments; she got it off touching his pale toned chest placing her mouth: hearing him gasp, looking up at him while kissing his chest.
His hands were on her back, Serenia stopped and glanced up to him, watching him as he leaned in when they hear from the song that was on loop:
Thought I could fake this thing alright
Thought it could somehow get me by
Watching the doctors as they slide
Needles into my eye
Thought I could finally get around
Laughable symptoms keep me down
Faces I see all keep me blind
And now they're redemption's mine
'Now that I found these inside fears the worst
Now that I know there's no place left to hide
Can I become all I thought I might
As the leaders who follow the path of whoever was standing round them
Call to say what I'm missing and into a detail they always go
Don't believe them but offer condolences under the circumstances
All too often I'm missing the spirit to fit in so call me out
Thought I could soundly sleep tonight
Positive clear and breathing right
Panic attacks, panic attacks me now
Seems like a fair redemption
Now that I can't exchange actions for words
Now that I found these inside fears the worst
Now that I know there's no place left to hide
Can I become all I thought I might
As the leaders who follow the path of whoever was standing round them
Call to say what I'm missing and into a detail they always go
Don't believe them but offer condolences under the circumstances
All too often I'm missing the spirit to fit in so call me out
Feeling him laying her down on her back with only her short jean shorts on, he moved his way from her mouth and down her throat, her chest was bolting up with every act; whimpering his name over and over,
gently removing them, to reveal a red thong. All his pulling her thong off and pulling the rest of his clothes off ''You're n-naked...'' ''Yes, and so are you.'' She had never seen a man naked, he turned up the music and went back
to kissing her ''I'll try not to hurt you..'' He whispered in her ear when she felt her barrier being penitrated for the first time she whimpered and he moved a bit more until he was inside of her tight enterance; her eyes widened and
shut tightly, whispering to her ''Hold onto me and relax,'' She obeyed by wrapping her arms around his neck and shoulders, and relaxed, it didn't hurt so bad.
After another hour or two, he spilled his seed in her and fell onto of her, holding him tightly she started to silently cry without knowing that her tears were falling from eyes onto his shoulders; tilted his head up
pulling apart from her, and bringing her close to his side ''I love you, Serenia.'' ''I love you, Kadaj...'' ''Never leave me.'' ''Never let me go.'' They fell asleep...
Reality:
The limo that was carrying both Naraku and Kadaj finally arrived to his manor, ''We must act fast,'' Came Naraku's voice as they got out of the long luxrious car, Kadaj agreed...
End of Chapter 4! I'll get Chapter 5 up! and Read and Review and HAPPY NEW YEAR!
