Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or Naruto. Neither do I own Hitaru, she belongs to Satsukerin.
Last Time: He watched her speed down the hallway then disappear around a corner. He sighed and went back to his research to get her home. Sesshomaru wondered how he was ever going to let her go now. Would he be able to let her go?
(Karins' Arrival - Sesshomaru)
Sesshomaru glared down from the window of his study. That woman of his past was coming into his home and by the way she walked, she was ready and raring to start some havoc. Before the woman reached his door she looked up right at him and blew him a kiss and then sauntered in his home. He snarled as she entered. It was going to take everything he had not to kill the bitch.
"Can I kill her please?" Sesse pled.
"No, we cannot." he answered.
"Fine." Sesse pouted.
"What is she planning?" Sesshomaru asked.
He had looked over at Hitaru, who was on the front lawn watching the nuisance come into his home. She had snarled at Karin and then an evil smile had come on to her beautiful face.
"She is probably planning to kill the terrible woman." Sesse said and Sessomaru didn't argue.
Sesshomaru sighed. This was going to be a problem. They both wanted the woman gone and she was going to a huge thorn in their sides. Sesshomaru was going to be hard pressed not to kill her the moment she came up to him. But Sesse, he was going to have to be put on a short, short leash. How they were going to keep Hitaru from killing her, they didn't know. If he interfered it could destroy what they had built with her or she could blow him up to get to Karin. This was going to be a trying and tiring time for his and Hitarus' relationship.
(Karins' Arrival - Hitaru)
Hitaru and Nero were watching the arrival of her new found nemesis. The woman was just as Sesshomaru had said. Her best feature was her hair, it was very beautiful. He was right about everything he had told her. All truth. She was very angular and she smelled very sickenly sweet and her eyes were the dark red of pomegranites. They didn't look good on her.
"She is just as Sesshomaru described. You can even feel the power hungriness radiating off of her." Nero said to her.
"She is exactly as he described." Hitaru said.
They watched as she made her way in and saw her stop and look straight up at Sesshomaru, who was standing at a window staring down at them. They saw her blow him a kiss and then go on in. Both of them snarled at her and they had seen Sesshomaru snarl as well. That made them smirk with glee, he was very angry about her being here and was showing it.
"May I kill her Hitaru?" Nero asked.
"No you can't." Hitaru said.
"Meanie." Nero said to her.
"I am not! I said you can't kill her... but I didn't say that you couldn't hand her her ass on a silver platter and maim her." Hitaru said with an evil grin coming on to her face.
Quite satisfied with the evilness developing in her brain about Karin, Hitaru quickly made her way inside to clean up. She was going to let Karin know who her brother had gotten her involved with. It was going to be fun.
(Karin's Arrival - Overall)
"Karin, dear sister, I didn't expect you to arrive until later this evening." Lord Kenta said, holding Karins' hands.
"I know but there has been rumors of demon bandits on the roads and I decided to arrive with daylight." she said.
Kenta looped arms with her and led her farther into the Shiro, followed by her driver with her bags. A servant approached them awaiting orders and Lord Kenta gave her some.
"It is good to be back here. Where is Lord Sesshomaru? Isn't he going to greet me or has he lost all of his manners roaming the wilderness?" Karin asked.
"Lady Karin, I see you have arrived early." Sesshomaru said coming to a stop at the stairs.
"Yes, rumors of demon bandits. I didn't want to be caught and lose everything." she said.
"I see. I am pleased to see that you made it here in one peice." he said coldly.
Karin smiled and made her way to him and she extended her hand for him to kiss. He did grudingly. Then quickly jumped away from her. He could smell Hitaru descending the stairs. Seconds passed and she was before them and was shining with her beauty. She had dressed up for Karins' arrival. A sure mark that she was showing Karin that she was dealing with someone more beautiful then herself.
"Lord Sesshomaru, we have another guest?" Hitaru asked, acting oblivious as to why Karin was there.
"Yes we do." he answered her.
"I see." she said back to him.
"Lady Hitaru this is Lord Kentas' sister, Lady Karin." he said to her.
"Welcome Lady Karin, I hope you enjoy your stay." Hitaru said to her.
"I believe I will." Karin said with a bit of bite in her voice.
"I should hope so." Hitaru said and began to leave the room for the study then she stopped and added, "Lady Karin, envy is not good for the psyche and it will give you wrinkles."
Sesshomaru had to stifle a laugh and succeeded in keeping his face straight. Karin was now glaring daggers at Hitarus' retreating form.
"Does she always speak this way to your guests?" Karin asked.
"Only to the ones that are unwelcome and annoying." Sesshomaru answered and walked off.
He continued even when he heard the hissing and snarls of female outrage. He smiled as it continued into the whinings of a spoiled brat. Karin was acting as if she had never been insulted before. He knew from personal experience that she had. The only difference was this time it wasn't him that was insulting her.
Hitaru was insulting her and the Lords were oblivious as to why. They certainly had no idea what they were dealing with and what they were going to set loose on Karin. Oh well, that was their own problem and not his as far as Karin was concerned. All he would do would be to sit back and watch the fireworks and intervene when and only if it was absolutely necessary.
AN: Rather short but necessary. Sorry. I had this chapter done for awhile but I have been busy working on some requested fics that I forgot to upload it. Sorry, again.
