Chapter ten.
Inutaisho opened the bottle of sake after kagome had set the vegitables down on the table and said her spell on the meat. As they all sat down Kagome served the first portion of meat from the platter to Inutaisho as she did she spoke in elven to him saying " Kiasue eday sheeskay peshei iadune un moisen chichue" ( translation ) Blessings given today shall follow you forever father. Inutaisho responded in kind with " Hanrem dir lin mittrleover" ( translation ) "Thank you my daughter."
Kagome smiled nodded then Turned and served her mate saying to him in normal speech" May tonights meal bring you much strength and power from here on out. May you never fail in your endevors though life.
She smiled at him then started to turn to the pest when her mate responded to her in elven saying." ciruska noi eve shunsai sor etie nu ur ai il nt trea a alis brials" ( translation ) " Mate do you think so low of me as to not give a true blessing." Kagome snapped her head back toward her mate and said.
" Loemin ciruska I nea nt rizi ui ciruska drof sai zing" ( Translation ) "Sorry mate I did not know my mate knew elf language." Kagome then reverted back saying "I am truely sorry mate I did not know you were so well versed in the elf language please forgive me".
She bowed her head then said " Kiasu eday sheeskay peshei iadune un moisen un ciruska". She then added " als sih toosko say aisay eah jeesay sai soonsa vita ver kwi mer vin ges tion" ( Translation ) " May the dish of the divine gods above gift you all with the blessings from the gods them selves."
As she said that the plates set before all three of them glowed yellow. Inuyasha's was paler in color than the others as it was not as strong. Sesshoumaru gasped at his mate she had just given them all the blessing of the gods themselves.
He watched as she pushed her chair away from the table and she spoke saying "Gomen nasi I am tired now and wish to rest. Please feel free to eat tonights meal without me." She then looked at Inutaisho and mentally spoke saying.
' I am tired cause of all the power I put into this food it took nearly everything I have to do it. Your son thought that I thought low of him so to prove him wrong he will eat the true food of the gods laced with more power than he or you posess right now'.
' Eat with care as if chewed wrongly will cause severe stomach upset. Tell your son nothing of what I have done to the food. Only how to eat it.' She then looked at her mate and said "I will see you later. I am too tired to eat so please forgive me".
She bowed to him then left walking slowly not bothering to notice three sets of eyes watching her as she left. One angry as hell and one shocked and the other curious. She rounded the corner to the living room heading for the bedroom when her legs gave out from under her.
She would have collapsed had not the wall been next to her. She leaned on it for a few seconds then pushed her self back up and wobbled down the hallway totally oblivious to the eyes of her father in law as he rounded the corner following her.
Making sure she made it back to the room okay. He saw when she collapsed against the wall and knew that she nearly killed herself in making that blessing. He was mad as hell at his son at that very second.
His son had no damn idea what he had just requested of his mate. Nor what he made her feel like. But Inutaisho sure as hell did and that was what made him angry as hell at Sesshoumaru. He watched as kagome made it to the room and shut the door behind her.
He then spun around and walked back to the dining room and glared at his son. Then spoke with all the authority and anger he could muster with out yelling at his son. " Do you have any damn clue what you have just done this very night Sesshoumaru???"
" No I do not father what have I done wrong this night that you would speak with such anger toward me" Inutaisho looked hard at his son " you insulted your mate and spat on a tradition that has never been seen by the eyes of anyone except elves.
But you did not stop there oh no you stated that you thought your mate thought lowly of you simply because she was following elf high royalty traditions by making the blessing to you more personal. Instead you stated not in words but actions that you did not want that.
So she gave you the only damn thing she could the blessing of the gods themselves which is nothing but raw power you stupid foolish pup. She gave you something that if you do not chew it fully can kill you.
She gave all her power in to making that blessing. She may have meant for you to get it but it also was given to me and your brother as well. I hope your happy now cause there is no known way to take back the power she put into this food.
This power that is in this meat came from her physically. She is weak to the point where she could die. The sad thing is she cannot eat any of this food cause if she did it would kill her." Inutaisho looked at the food infront of him then at his son again. " She gave me the proper blessing for this food before you pulled your stunt.
But now that I can see the power in this food I am suddenly no longer hungry. I will not consume any of this food at all. This food is her youkai power now and I will not eat it. I prefer her to live. My suggestion to you son is this do not eat this food after a hour her power will go back to her.
But be warned she will be mad as hell at you. She may even attack you". It was then that Inutaisho felt her thoughts ' No that will not happen and be not mad at him the blessing I gave was not pure power it was the blessing of the gods.
It takes alot of power to say the blessing because I have to over throw my vampire side to do it. Only the living can make such a blessing not those who are half dead. The blessed food is not my youkai power for I very much retain that part of me it is the powerful blessings of the gods and you must eat the food or it will find you where ever you are.
It is keyed to you only so you must eat it. Inutaisho immediatly lost all his anger and seemed to deflate in the chair. As he thought back' why would you make such a blessing child. We are not so noble that we are above you'.
' We are infact below you child you deserve that blessing more than we do. Your entire species was wiped out all that is left is you. Why would you honor a race that is strong in the way of breeding and not wish for the same for your self.'
She said 'simple you are my family now there is no artic foxes left. They are all dead and will remain that way until the pups I carry are born. Then there may be hope for the race. But not for a very long time.
It was then that Sesshoumaru burst into the mental conversation ' You are the last artic fox mate and simply mating with me does not change who you really are. You are the only artic fox left and you honor me by being my mate. So do not ever give us that blessing again unless you are included in it.'
As he thought that he opened the door to their bed room and found her lying on the floor not but scant feet away from the bed. He picked her up and carried her back out into the dining room. There he sat down in his chair with her in his lap.
He picked up a piece of his meat and prayed that the blessings of the gods would extend their powers to his mate and bless her with not dieing and yet be able to keep the vampire blood in her just mold it to where it worked in harmony with her beast to keep her alive and allow her to give birth to live pups.
The piece of meat he had glowed a brilliant yellow as it changed for her alone. He offered it to his mate who had completly woke up by then. She saw the meat and pratically came out of her skin. She wriggled in his arms trying to feebly get away from the food.
Sesshoumaru was having a difficult time trying to hold her still long enough to feed her. He looked at the meat again and noticed something he had not before. There was a spell that would kill her if she ate it. He looked at it and prayed again saying for them to undo the curse she put on it that would kill her.
Make it so she can eat it too and be just as safe as the rest of us. It changed again and he felt her settle down. He looked at her out of the corner of his eye and stated " That was foolish of you woman to do something like that" As he said that he lifted the food to her mouth and tried to feed her.
But she clamped her mouth shut and glared at him. Inutaisho seeing this on the other side chuckled out loud then said " Sesshoumaru I belive my boy you have met your match this night. I remember many years ago when you and she were just pups. You had come down sick and she had you in the same postion you have her in now".
"As I recall you did the samething she is doing now." As he said that Inuyasha asked "how did it turn out father did she feed him or what?" Inutaisho chuckled some more then stated " Oh yes she did son and in the most unusual of ways too I might add. She actually pried his mouth open and crammed it in then forced him to chew it.
It was quite a site to see she had him on the table flat on his back with her sitting on his chest pinning his arms to his side while she used her hands to prie open his mouth and her tails to shove the food in his mouth. She made him chew it hair and all. I could not help but laugh then as I am now."
He chuckled even more when his eldest son did the same thing to kagome as she had done to him all those years ago. As he remembered his promise to get her back for that. He looked at her as he had her pinned under him and said " now I fulfill that promise I made to pay you back for what you did to me".
He grabbed the entire plate of food with his tail making sure to put hair from his tail on it then he used both hands and pried her mouth open then shoved the food in her mouth forcing her to eat it. Inuyasha seeing it fell out of the chair howling in laughter as he saw his brother acting like a child with his mate on the table sitting on top of her cramming her face full of food before him.
' This was better than a food fight at any school he had ever attended. To see his brother mister allways by the book prim and proper acting like a five year old at a WacDonalds play place was funny as all get out '.
' What was funnier was that it was happening infront of him and his father both. His brother had his sister inlaw's head right smack in the middle of the meat platter while on either side of her head were the sweet rice cakes that had gone flying.
When his brother had put her up there none to gently mind you as she was squirming like to beat the band. ' The best part out of all this was several pieces of choice cut meat had gone flying straight for his fathers head '.
' His father had dodged one but did not see the follow up. It smacked his father full in the face leaving a blood trail going down as the meat was medium rare '. That was what had Inuyasha on the floor howling in laughter at the sight.
Inutaisho just sighed to him self and thought ' I guess this is what I can expect at family get togethers too. I should learn to simply duck from now on as I am sure there is going to be many food fights at the palace. When these two show up. Things certainly are going to get interesting from now on'
As he thought that he pulled the meat off his face then reached for his napkin and wiped his face off. Only to see his son kissing his mate in the middle of the table. Inuyasha by this time had gotten up and stated " get a room you two will ya"
Sesshoumaru sat up and saw where they were and who was there he blushed then got off his mate and off the table dragging her protesting form with him. When he got her sat up she slapped him then stated " cave man "
As she walked away muttering under her breath about " stupid male dog demons and how they were no better than a cave man when it came to table manners" Of course it did not help her out one bit.
That all of them could hear every word she muttered all the way to the bedroom then in to the bathroom. It was only when the shower went on that they could no longer hear what she said. Inutaisho was doing his level best to keep a straight face.
But it wasn't working as both sons could see a smirk tugging at the corners of his mouth which mirrored theirs. Sesshoumaru then stated to no one inparticular " well I wonder how eating hair tastes. I hear its quite unique "
As he said that they all heard a murderous growl come from the bathroom and soon saw a very soapy looking kagome with a tooth brush stuck in her mouth and a white towel wrapped around her.
Inuyasha and his father looked at each other then at Sesshoumaru who was sitting there with his mouth open with a look of shock written all over his face. Kagome looked down at her self and then squeeked and disappeared in a flash.
( A/N I will give you two guesses as to why sesshoumaru's mouth was open and why kagome squeeked then ran back to the bathroom. One doesn't count though. )
The towel wasn't big enough and she had flashed her mate, his father and brother both. Inutaisho had wisely chosen that moment to stuff his face with food. His sons did not need to see the smile he had that was trying to come out.
Inuyasha following his father's lead did the same. Sesshoumaru just sat there in total shock then a evil glint came to his eye as he looked at his father and spoke " I think I will go use the bathroom father I will be right back."
Inutaisho looked at his son and said no need son. Inuyasha and I were just leaving we have a appoinment downtown with some of the dock hands. We will see you tommorrow at work son. At that Inuyasha smiled at his brother " Have some fun for me too will ya " Sesshoumaru nodded
Then stood up and saw his father and brother to the door. When they left he locked the door and thought ' let the fun begin as he turned the lights off'.
