Chapter 4

A/N: So I was going over the reviews I've gotten and they've inspired me to keep writing. School is FINALLY over and I don't have to worry about my AP Tests anymore! Well I hope to keep updating these stories and I think I am going to rewrite What a Curse can Reveal. Sorry if I don't update every week I'm just stuck on Hetalia right now so I've been reading a lot of those lately. Well, on with the story!

Sesshomaru lifted his giant dog head from Kagome's back as he hears the sound of glass shattering inside the citadel. He and Kagome were in their true forms in the garden curled up around each other and enjoying each other's presence.

"Get your ass back here you pig headed dog!" He heard Kisho yell as he saw his father fly by a window with Kisho hot on his heels.

"Now now Kisho I was just joking. No need to overreact." Inutaisho said as he continued running throughout the citadel. Kisho suddenly stops and puts the cheesiest smile he can on his face and smiles at Inutaisho.

"Really? So you were just joking? Oh alright I believe I can allow you to go." He turns around and walks away as Inutaisho finally stops and sighs in relief. However he doesn't see the figure coming up behind him until…

WHAM!

Inutaisho falls to the floor passed out with an angered Kisho behind him with a fist in the air.

"That's what you get you dirty bastard." He turns to the window only to see Sesshomaru and Kagome staring at him with a questioning gaze.

He smiles at the both of them then turns to one of the guards stationed nearby, "Will you make sure someone takes him back to his quarters?"

"Of course Lord Kisho." The guard bows then turns to Inutaisho and takes him back to his room.

Sesshomaru, seeing as his peace has been interrupted, reverts back to his humanoid form and Kagome whines as she loses the warmth of her intended and also reverts back to her humanoid form.

In just a few seconds Kisho appears in the garden. "What just happened father?" Kagome asks as she hugs her father.

"Yes, what have you done to my father? Did he try to bite you again?" Sesshomaru asks smirking at Kisho and wrapping his arm aroung Kagome once she lets go of her father.

"No he didn't Sesshomaru and I would very much appreciate it if you didn't mention that incident again thank you very much!"

Kagome chuckles as she sees her father blush at the reminder of that incident, then laughs as she sees him shudder at the mere thought of Inutaisho trying to bite him again. "Your father, Sesshomaru, is a perverted dog that needs to be kept on a leash. He suggested that we, he and I, should switch mates for a day to see just how difficult it is to deal with the others mate." Kisho explained to the hysterical Kagome and the calm Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru smirks at Kisho and says, "And of course you being yourself takes offense to that then gets perverted and thinks of all the ways you believe my father will try to get your mate in his bed. However may I remind you that we are Inu which means that your mate would never betray you and my father would never betray my mother."

"Yes father you always forget that little detail." Kagome adds.

"How would you explain Inuyasha then Sesshomaru? I would very much like to hear that explination."

"Its quite simple actually." A voice adds from down the hall before Sesshomaru could respond.

"Mother." Sesshomaru nods his head to his mother and allows her to continue once she reached them.

"My mate was made to bed Izayoi by the Lord of the Southern Lands. She was an alliance gift that, if my mate would not have bedded, would have caused the West to go to war with the South and the alliance would forever have been terminated. However that one night caused Izayoi to be pupped with Inuyasha. When she died at childbirth, I became Inuyasha's mother. As you know Kisho, it was extremely painful for the both of us that night. Inus are to be faithful to their mates and if they are not, they would be in excruciating pain during the ordeal. If an Inus mate was weak, he or she would die and the one who was bedding the others mate would be forced to become the new mate or else the other would die without its mate." Kimiko explained the situation to Kisho.

"How did you not know of this father?" kagome asked confused with the ordeal. "You have been friends with Toga since you two were pups, how did you not know this had happened?"

"He didn't know because this had happened during the time that your lands were at war with the daimyos of your lands. The Eastern Lands, your lands, have always had trouble with the daimyos because of your trade networks. They have been after your networks for centuries until finally your father was able to calm everything down." Kimiko explained before Kisho could answer his daughter.

Kagome blushes at her idiocy. How could she not have remembered that from her lessons? She was too young to remember the absence of her father during that time and most of her lessons included her thoughts on her upcoming mating to Inuyasha at the time.

"Toga don't even try it. I don't go down as easily as you did." Kisho says as he sighs tiredly.

"Damn you and your nose. Cant exactly blame your ears because we both know I have the better ears." Toga remarks as he comes out from behind Kisho and wraps his arms around Kimiko from behind.

Kisho growls at Toga and Sesshomaru, seeing the upcoming argument, silently kidnaps Kagome and they leave the Citadel while the men start arguing again not noticing Kimikos smile at Sesshomaru and Kagome's disappearance.
