Chapter 4 – Revenge
Sesshoumaru looked at his mate in a proud way, for once she was going to fight for herself and nobody else "If you wish to rid the ones who hurt you then I will not stop you" Kameo looked at Kagome confused
"Kagome, I understand why you would want to kill Inuyasha but why your father?" Kagome wrapped her arms around Kameo and smiled sadly
"You're very lucky to have a father who loves you and would never think of harming you but my father is a different story. When I was just a year younger than you my father abused me through beatings and rape" Kagome let a tear fall as Sesshoumaru wiped it away
"Oh Kagome, I'm so sorry. When Koroshiya did those things to me I always felt dirty and thought it was my fault, I thought that I might of led him on or something" She also let a tear fall that her father wiped away "Daddy you'll be here for Kagome won't you?" Sesshoumaru smiled and nodded
"I'll be here for both of you" He continued "You are my family"
"It's nice to have a mum and dad" Kameo smiled as Kagome released her and looked at her shocked
"You look at me as a mother?" Kameo nodded
"You show me love and kindness even though I am not your child and if it is ok with you I'd like to start calling you mum" Kagome welled up and embraced Kameo
"Of course you can darling" She kissed her new daughter's cheek and Kameo flew into the air and giggled
"What is Rin to me?"
"I suppose she is your adopted sister" Sesshoumaru replied "Kagome, will you be mothering Rin too?" Kagome nodded. He pulled her into his arms and kissed her tenderly
"You two got to have a child of your own now" Kameo beamed "I want a little brother" Sesshoumaru opened his arms and she flew into them
"I could arrange that" He smirked evilly to Kagome
"Umm" Kagome blushed "Kameo, how about you and me go play with Rin. You can too Sesshoumaru" She laughed
"I think I'll pass" He kissed her cheek and wrapped his arms around her waist "I think I'll play with you tonight" He then released her waist and let the girls be
"What did dad say?" Kameo asked
"Umm never mind" She then took Kameo's hand and the girls went and played in the garden...
It had now been a month since the girls moved into the palace and they now knew the palace inside out. It was night and Kagome and Sesshoumaru were laying in bed talking "Sesshoumaru, Kameo has settled in really well hasn't she?" Kagome asked
"She has" Kagome rolled on top of him and kissed his nose
"You know you promised Kameo a baby sibling" She teased as she blew his face "Do you want to try for one?" Her hand slipped down his trousers and slowly and painfully she stroked his member
"Uh..." He almost gasped "Kagome...Kameo's in the other room" She quickened her pace which made him groan
"Then be quiet" She smirked evilly. As he was about to reach his peek she pulled away "You're right, we better not" He gave a low growl and grind his hips against her
"Oh come on Kagome, you got me in the mood now"
"Well since you want to" She then slipped her hand back down and finished what he started
"I didn't mean that...way" He managed to pull her hand away along with both their bottom cleavage and got on top of her "You're going to pay for that my love" He then entered her and thrust fast and hard, he wrapped his arms around her back. She was a little scared as this was how her father and Inuyasha did it
"Sesshoumaru, please a little slower" He did as she asked. Soon they climaxed together and he pulled out and lay next to her
"Tomorrow I am going to ask father to give my mother's palace a good redoing so that we can move there with Kameo and Rin, we'll have our own palace to ourselves"
"I'd like that" She replied breathlessly "Our own palace, with our children running around" She smiled
"Yeah" He kissed her passionately and pulled the covers over them "Sleep well my love" They then drifted off to sleep. During the night there was knocking on the bedroom door "Come in" Sesshoumaru said tiredly. As soon as Kameo walked in Sesshoumaru shot up, he could smell blood "Kameo?" She was crying and Sesshoumaru embraced her, Kagome woke and sat up "Where are you bleeding to love?"
"I-I don't know, it is all over my bed and on my legs" Kagome got up and walked over to them "Mom, what's wrong with me" Kagome pulled her from Sesshoumaru's arms and took her hand
"We'll be back now" She then took Kameo into her room and sat her on a chair "You do know where you are bleeding from" Kameo nodded "I understand why you didn't want to tell dad" Kagome smiled "You have got your period or as Inuyoukai call it heat"
"Period? Heat?"
"This shows that you can have children, it happens every moon cycle and last for a week – sometimes less sometimes more" Kameo nodded "But don't worry, you're not going to die from blood loss or anything. It is the first step to becoming a woman, well that's what my mom told me" She then got the things to help her (Luckily she brought the supplies from her time) and called Yuri in to change the bed sheets. When everything was ok Kagome settled Kameo into bed and pulled the sheets over her "Are you ok now?"
"Yes" She smiled tiredly "Thank you"
"No problem, goodnight love" She kissed her daughter's head and went back into her room where a very impatient Sesshoumaru sat waiting
"Well, what was wrong?" He asked
"She has began heat" She walked over to him "Couldn't you smell it?"
"I didn't really want to know as soon as I smelt her blood, I thought she was wounded"
"Awe a concerned father" She pecked his lips and climbed into bed whilst pulling him down with her "She's growing up"
"Already, I never spent her childhood with her" Kagome looked at her mate in sorrow, he didn't deserve to lose his daughter when she was a baby
"I know love" She kissed his neck and snuggled to him "She's still a child Sessh, she's only 14; the proper age of a woman is roughly 16 to 18. It depends on who the person is"
"I guess you're right"
"I always am" She then kissed him again and snuggled into the covers "Goodnight love, see you in the morning" Morning came fast which annoyed both Sesshoumaru and Kagome "Oh man, it's way too early to get up"
"Kagome" She heard her mate yawn "It's 11am" They eventually got out of bed and got dressed, when they were ready they went downstairs to breakfast where they met up with the rest of the family. As they ate the talked "Father, I was wondering"
"Yes Sesshoumaru" Inutaisho said motioning him to continue
"Kagome and I will want to have children of our own soon and it isn't fair on them or you to live here any longer"
"Then what do you propose?"
"Well if it is possible could you sort out mother's palace, she passed it on to me after all" He continued "It is more than big enough for us to raise a family and it is in the Western lands so when I take the thrown I will still be in the right destination"
"You have a point, I will grant you this but on one condition" He waited for him to continue "As soon as your pups are born I can visit them when I wish and you will come here often too"
"Agreed"
"Then it's settled" He then clapped his hands "Monomaru, come here" His head guard entered the room and bowed
"Yes milord"
"I want you to pick out 200 of your best men and 60 of your best servants" He said "I want them sent over to my former mate's palace where they will clean it out and will make it suitable for Prince Sesshoumaru and Princess Kagome and their daughters"
"I shall do it right away" He bowed once more and ran off to do his duties. Soon breakfast was over and Kagome was talking with Sesshoumaru in his study
"You have been training Kameo and I for the past month or so now and I think I am ready to rid myself of my family" Kagome said
"I thought you didn't have the heart to kill your father"
"That was before you opened my eyes" She sat on his desk that he was working at "I want to go today"
"Not in your condition" He averted her gaze and continued writing one of his scrolls
"What condition?" He looked up at her and smirked
"You're pregnant" She gapped but that was soon replaced with a big grin
"Really" He nodded "OH MY GOD" Sesshoumaru stood as she pounced on him causing them to tumble over to the floor
"What's going on in here...oh" Inutaisho and Inuyasha ran in the room to find them on the floor in such a position "Sesshoumaru, I gave you this study to work on scrolls not on your mate"
"Don't shout at me she jumped on me" He said jokily. They got up and Kagome hugged Inutaisho
"Umm Kagome, are you okay?"
"You're going to be a grandfather for 3 children now" Inutaisho's face lit up as he lifted Kagome up and span her around
"Congratulations to both of you" He grinned as he out Kagome down and patted Sesshoumaru's shoulder "What gender do you want it to be"
"A boy" They both said together, this made Inuyasha want to be sick. Kameo and Rin ran in from all of the shouting
"What's wrong?" They said in unison
"You're going to be big sisters" Kagome beamed. The girls squealed and jumped into Kagome's arms, she embraced them back and jumped up and down with them
"I want a baby brother" They shouted together again, Kagome then released the girls who then ran off to think of names for the baby. Inutaisho and Inuyasha then went back to do their things whilst Sesshoumaru and Kagome talked in the study once more
"If you wish we will dispatch your father when our pup is born"
"Ok, but I want to go back there to tell them the news and to restock on supplies for Kameo and I"
"We will leave in the morning then" Meanwhile Kameo was walking by herself down the halls as Rin had ran off somewhere when she bumped into Inuyasha, she fell over and bowed her head when she saw Inuyasha
"Sorry Master Inuyasha, I didn't see you" She got up and dusted herself off
"Why would you use manners in someone you hate?" He questioned the young girl
"I don't hate you" She replied "My father might but I don't anything against you"
"I see" He was about to walk off when she stopped him
"May I ask...why do you hate me?"
"I do not hate you for the same reasons you don't hate me but..." He didn't continue he just carried on walking down the hall 'But you are in heat which makes me want to take you' He then went downstairs and met his father in the dojo. Kameo watched as her uncle left without another word, she shrugged it off and entered the garden where she saw Rin and Jaken arguing
"Why are you against Prince Sesshoumaru and Kagome having babies?" Rin yelled
"Because the Prince can do so much better than that disgusting human wench" Jaken snapped
"You're just jealous because you're in love with Prince Sesshoumaru" She giggled
"I-I am not" He blushed "I just give my life to him through service" Rin saw Kameo and called her over
"Hey Kameo, Jaken is against Prince Sesshoumaru and Kagome having children" Rin looked and Jaken and grinned evilly "Are you going to say it to the Princess's face?"
"Shut up Rin, you don't know what you're talking about" Jaken then turned to Kameo and bowed "Sorry Princess, Rin is a foolish child. If you wish it I could punish her"
"My father does not approve of such things" She replied as she sat on the grass "Can I ask you something Jaken?"
"O-of course Princess"
"Koroshiya told me my father hated humans, so why has he taken one as a mate and the other as a child?"
"I am not sure to be honest Princess but I think his heart softened when he met Rin, he says that she and Kagome are different from the other greedy self-centred humans"
"Oh I see" The weather was really hot today so she was relieved that her father let her wear a pair of green shorts and a green top that revealed her stomach "Jaken, did you ever meet my mother?"
"Of course I did, I've known Prince Sesshoumaru since he was a pup so I did indeed meet your mother?"
"What was she like?"
"A beauty like no other Princess, you look identical to her and you two share the same heart but hard to believe she was more shy than you" She giggled at the imp's answer and looked at the markings on her stomach "She had those too but she didn't have the emerald stripes on your cheeks, I believe you got them from his majesty but his are magenta"
"And Jaken would know the exact colour of Prince Sesshoumaru's markings because he stares at him all day" Rin blurted out. Before they could argue Inutaisho called to his granddaughter
"Kameo, could you come to the dojo a second?"
"Yes" 'The dojo? Wait isn't that where Inuyasha is training?' She then entered the dojo, walked past Inuyasha and flew beside her grandfather who held a strange brown box "What is it?"
"Since you are a Princess you will need to have a symbol to prove you are royalty" He then opened a box that revealed a golden sailor moon style crown but looked more enchanted and had a big red sapphire
"It's beautiful" Inuyasha saw the crown and walked over to them
"It's yours" He placed the crown on her head and kissed her cheek "It suits what you wear too" He joked
"Oh grandfather thank you" She wrapped her arms around him in a hug "What does dad wear to show he's royalty?"
"Well he does also have a crown but never wears it, luckily the crescent moon on his forehead symbolises Taisho Royalty"
"Oh cool" She released her grandfather and bowed "I'm going to show mom and dad" And with that Kameo ran upstairs and knocked on the study door "Dad, can I come in?"
"Yes" She opened the door and flew in "What are you wearing on your head?" He kneeled in front of her
"Grandfather gave it to me" She beamed "He said it symbolises royalty" Sesshoumaru gave a small smile and stood
"You look very beautiful with it on" Kameo then looked around the room and noticed Kagome was nowhere to be seen
"Where's mom?"
"She's getting her bag"
"Why is she going somewhere?"
"Yes, your mother and I are going to her home to tell her parents that she is pregnant and she needs to get some more supplies" He replied as he strapped his swords to his waist
"Rin and I aren't coming?" Kameo asked a little hurt and a little weary
"We will be home tomorrow" He assured "You won't even realize that we've gone"
"But I don't want to be on my own here"
"You won't be, your grandfather and Rin are here" She folded her arms and pouted "Your mother comes from a...a different dimension I suppose you could say and only certain people can pass through, I don't know if you or Rin will be able to pass"
"Well we'll never know now then will we"
"Kameo, stop acting like a spoilt brat" She looked up at her father and frowned
"I'm not being spoilt, I just want to spend sometime with my father" She stormed out of his study and slammed the door shut, Sesshoumaru was not going to take such disobedience from her. He opened the study door and grabbed her wrist
"Don't talk to me with that tone" He warned "Continue with this behaviour and I will confide you to your room until I return"
"I was going to stay there anyway" She huffed as she turned her head from him
"Then you can go there now" She looked up at him
"But Rin and I were going to play with grandfather"
"You should have thought of that before you started shooting your mouth off, now go to your room" The teenager snatched her wrist back from her father, flew to her room and slammed her bedroom door shut. Sesshoumaru shook his head and entered his room where Kagome was looking in her wardrobe
"What's wrong Sessh?" She didn't even meet his gaze, just kept on looking through her wardrobe "I sense you're annoyed"
"I just argued with Kameo" He lay back on the bed and closed his eyes with a frown
"What over?" She had by now slipped her old uniform on and was sitting by where he lay "It's not like you two to fight"
"She asked to come with us to your time but I told her she may not pass through the well, she continued to complain and beg so I told her not to be a spoilt brat, then she said all she wanted to do was to spend time with me and slammed the door in my face. I went after her and told her if she did anything like that again I would confide her to her room until we returned, she cheeked again so now she is in her room sulking" Kagome brushed his bangs out of his eyes
"Did she mention anything like not wanting to be here on her own" He nodded, opened his eyes, looked at her and waited for her to continue "Don't forget love that you're the only man she feels comfortable around, she's most probably weary of Inuyasha too"
"Why would she?"
"Well what I told her of him and she told me that he has a weird scent when he looks at her which scares her slightly, she said he's only started doing it since she's been in heat. I think he finds her attractive and is fighting the urge to take her"
"My father will not allow him to touch her"
"Perhaps your father hasn't realized, you didn't so how can he? What if he has to leave sometime tonight and leaves Kameo and Rin in Inuyasha's care?"
"I see where you are coming from but what if the girls cannot pass through the well? We can't just leave them waiting"
"I'll do all I can to use my powers to get them through don't worry" She kissed his crescent moon and pulled him to sit up "Not I think you need to talk with our daughter"
"Yeah I guess so" He pulled her into his lap and kissed her passionately "How do you always know what to say?"
"I'm just too good" She smirked
"Yes you are" She got off his lap and he headed towards Kameo's bedroom, he knocked the door and waiting for the permission to enter "Kameo, may I come in?"
"Why so you can shout at me again?"
"No, I want to talk to you. I promise I won't shout" He heard her mumble a 'fine' and entered, she was sitting on the windowsill with her back to him "I'm sorry I snapped at you earlier, I understand why you don't want to be here without me now" She looked at him almost pleadingly "You fear Inuyasha don't you?" She lowered her head to hide and nodded almost ashamed
"What he did to mom was wrong and I know what it feels like to have someone do that, it makes you sick and want you to rip your skin from your body as you feel so disgusted and dirty" She curled into a ball and put her head in her knees, Sesshoumaru sat beside her and stroked her head
"I promised you that you would never undergo such pain again and I am true to my word, if you wish to come with me and your mother to her time then I will allow it"
"T-thank you" She sniffled. She crawled onto his lap and cuddled to him "I love you dad"
"I love you too my daughter" He kissed her forehead and wiped her tears "I hate it when you cry" He nuzzled her nose and stood "Get your things ready and Kameo" She looked at him "Cheer up" She smiled at him and nodded
"I will" She beamed "Do you want me to tell Rin to get ready too?"
"It would be a help" She nodded and he gave her a little wink, he then left to find his father. He found Inutaisho in the garden with Inuyasha "Father, Kagome and I will be taking the girls to see her parents"
"I thought you wasn't going to take the girls?" Inutaisho asked confused "Getting soft are we?"
"There are reasons believe me" He said as he eyed Inuyasha
"And what are they? You don't believe that I would harm the girls" Inutaisho sounded a little hurt
"I know 'you' wouldn't" Inuyasha frowned and stood
"And you're implying that I would?"
"Of course" He answered in a growl "You have been looking at Kameo in ways that disgust me, I will not have her here without me as long as you're around"
"What you think I'm attracted to the kid? Don't be stupid Sesshoumaru"
"She's said that she has seen the way you look at her and can smell your arousal, apparently it has started since she started her heat cycle"
"And she's told you this?"
"No, she told Kagome" As he said this Kagome and the girls entered the garden and walking towards Sesshoumaru
"We're ready" Sesshoumaru saw his half brother's eyes fall on Kameo as he licked his lips, the Prince growled and was about to hit him when Inutaisho grabbed him
"Calm down Sesshoumaru" He then leaned into his son's ear "I shall talk to Inuyasha and will sort things out" Sesshoumaru nodded and Inutaisho spoke out loud so everyone could hear again "Do me a favour? Stop by Totosai's and pick up my sword Sounga"
"You're lucky we are going in that direction" Sesshoumaru smirked. Kameo flew up into Inutaisho's arms
"Grandfather, why do you name your swords for?"
"Because when I send your father to pick them up I don't have to say 'Oh get that one that makes the walking dead" Kameo giggled and nodded
"You also possess weird swords" She smiled "Bye, see you soon" She kissed his cheek, ran to his father, caught his hand and waved to Inuyasha "Bye Inuyasha"
"Uh...Bye..." Sesshoumaru then turned and the gang left the palace along with Jaken and AhUn. As soon as they left the palace they came to a halt
"Jaken, you and Rin will ride upon AhUn. We shall be flying, Kagome come here" Kagome walked over to him and he wrapped his arm around her waist "Kameo, how fast can you fly?"
"As fast as I desire"
"Do you tire easily through flying?"
"I don't know, I've never attempted to fly long before"
"Well I will keep your mother with me on my youkai cloud, if you tire come to me and I shall carry you too" Kameo nodded and they took to the sky and headed towards Inuyasha's forest. During the journey Rin was bored so started to bug Jaken whilst everybody else minus Sesshoumaru talked
"Sesshoumaru, you told your father you would stop by Totosai" Kagome said
"And I will on the way home" Kagome shrugged and watched Kameo giggle and scream as she did back flips and twirls in the sky, Kagome laughed along with her surrogate daughter "Kameo, seize your antics. If you continue you will tire yourself out" Kameo stopped and huffed
"Fine" By now they had arrived at Inuyasha's forest and landed beside the well
"Jaken, you shall care for AhUn and will stay here until we return" Sesshoumaru then took Kameo into his arms as Kagome took Rin into hers, Kagome then took Sesshoumaru's free hand and they jumped down the well together (Man that's one big well).
