From Last Chapter
"NOOOOOOOO. Inuyasha! TRADITION!!" Sesshomaru howled as he was led away leaving the older ones with one kitsune.
"Well, that was umm…interesting."
"Speak for yourself, I want the gossip."
"Oh you are so childish!"
"Aw but you love me, Sexy Fluff." Reisuzaku called as he blew a kiss to the Dog General who, blushed deep red at the pet name and followed his sons to avoid tradition from being broken. Sexy Fluff?
Chapter 14: Matrimony and Grave Decisions.
Inuyasha awoke the next morning and hissed at the birds that were twittering outside his window. Damned birds get the fuck outta here and twitter somewhere else. He got out of bed and saw a note on the table. He smiled briefly as he recognized the handwriting. It was from Reisuzaku.
Inuyasha,
I know that you're either cranky or nervous…er, maybe both, you are 'Taisho's pup. Anyway before I get my head bashed in, allow me to tell you briefly how this is gonna fly. First you wake up, kill a few birds…just kidding! No but on a serious note, there will be breakfast waiting for you. I had Sesshomaru's little imp dude bring it to you with the threat that I'd burn his ass and his little stick. Your father, even threw in that he would have the little guy for a snack and would pick out his teeth with his bones. Now I know where you two pups get it from. After breakfast, there will be a bath prepared, milk bath with rose and sakura petals….you'd probably do one of two; say HELL NO or FUCK YEA. You got to do it either way. So while you're bathing, Kagome and Sango will help you with your…outfit and your hair. 'Taisho, Koga, Miroku and myself will help Sesshomaru, correction, me and 'Taisho. Koga and Miroku will overlook who comes in. Rin and Shippo will deal with the juveniles. Upon you two getting ready and the moon is full, the bells will signal when you would come out. Sesshomaru will come out on the first ring you after three. Sesshomaru will come from the West and you from the East. As for a priest, we will bring Kaede and she will perform it. The rest, well just follow Sesshomaru and 'Taisho ok? Good luck to you both.
With Love,
Reisuzaku
Inuyasha folded the note and smiled. Somehow Rei knew how to relax the hanyou. Maybe it's his nature. Inuyasha went to breakfast, ate enough in where both he and his were content and got ready for the bath. He sighed with relief and enjoyed himself immensely. The milk soaked into his skin and made his skin softer. The blossoms soothed him and made him fragrant. When that was done he left the bath, calm and relaxed and smiled at the girls who were waiting for him.
"Inuyasha," Sango said. "Are you ready for your big day?" Inuyasha looked at her and smiled.
"Well I'm nervous and a bit shaky."
"That's normal." Sango said with a smile as she helped him with his hair. "I remember my mother telling me how nervous she was when she got married."
"My mother didn't get to marry Father." Inuyasha said sadly. "He was supposed to have died. But Yukisenshi froze him."
"Come to think of it Inuyasha, you and your father have something in common. You were both sealed off to the world for a while."
"That is true." Inuyasha said as Kagome helped with his kimono. It was white and silver with inuyoukai in their true forms on the hems and on the back was a likeness of Sesshomaru's inuyoukai looking at the moon. The only color that Inuyasha had was the clip in his hair, which was silver and had crimson crystals dripping from it. Inuyasha was in his full demon form and in the wedding attire and his markings, he looked stunning. The girls looked at him and began to cry.
"Why are you two crying?" He asked as he watched them carry on. Sango and Kagome looked at him tearfully and hugged him.
"We're so happy for you." Sango said. "You're the brother we've always wanted, Inuyasha."
"Just come to our weddings too ok?" Kagome said. Inuyasha looked at her and grinned.
"Hm, you mean you and the Wolf?" He teased causing Kagome to blush.
"INUYASHA!!" She squealed as they play fought. All three of them laughed and played but Inuyasha was mindful with his hair and clothes. He didn't want to look like he had been through battle on his wedding day.
Sesshomaru was getting ready for his wedding day with his father and Reisuzaku helping him. He was dressed in his full wedding garb and armor. His mokomoko was on his left shoulder. The one thing that made him different from his father was that his hair was loose. He would never put his hair in a high ponytail like his father. A loose braid maybe, but never a high ponytail.
"Sessho," His father said as he smiled at his older son with approval. "Marriage seems to suit you."
"Father please," Sesshomaru pleaded as his mokmoko fluffed a bit. "I'm so nervous."
"Just don't slam anything onto your…jewels." Reisuzaku snickered. Sesshomaru paled and yelped. Inutaisho looked at the fire demon and glared.
"Was that needed right now?"
"Sorry Sexy Fluff I wasn't thinking."
"Sexy Fluff?" Sesshomaru asked. He watched his father blush and hide behind his twin mokomokos. Reisuzaku blushed as red as his hair. Sesshomaru looked at the two and snickered. Sexy Fluff indeed. Sesshomaru's ears perked up at the first ring of the bells. The trio looked up and Jaken came in.
"Lord Sesshomaru," He squeaked. "It's time."
"Let's go son." Inutaisho said as he fell into place next to his older son. "It is time to proclaim your love and union to the world." With that the two Lords of the West walked off, leaving Reisuzaku to go to Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha." Reisuzaku called. "Are you ready?"
"More than I'll ever be." Inuyasha said as he took Reisuzaku's arm and was waiting for the bells to ring. For whom the bells toll? Inuyasha thought to himself as the second bell rang.He took a breath and when the third bell rang, he and Reisuzaku walked out of his rooms. They toll for me…
Kagome and Koga, as well as the others, were awaiting the couple's arrival. Kagome couldn't believe that Inuyasha was getting married. He wouldn't be a renegade anymore. Now she had to acknowledge him for who he was; Lord Inuyasha, second Lord of the West and he was a Prince to the people. He wouldn't be able to go on quests anymore. After this day, Inuyasha would only look forward to diapers, tears, and squealing pups. She looked to Koga who caught her gaze and smiled. She smiled back and looked toward where the couple would enter. She gasped.
Sesshomaru cut a regal figure dressed in full Lord's regalia. The colors were white, silver, royal blue and black. The armor he wore was silver and his hair was still free. To everyone's surprise he had three swords on him. Kagome recognized the Tensuegia, however with them were two more, Inuyasha's sword and the Sword of Calamity! Swords of a ruler... Kagome thought. She knew that Inuyasha's sword could not be drawn by anyone but Inuyasha himself, but it didn't mean that Sesshomaru couldn't carry it. Sesshomaru may have intimidated the audience but Inuyasha was breath taking. He was dressed in white, silver and crimson. His hair was up at first but since it hurt his ears he decided on a loose braid with the rest flowing down. The demon markings were crimson and magenta and his features were more effeminate. Even his scent changed. The single demon lords moaned as they adjusted the way they sat. They were aroused by the beautiful bride. Both Sesshomaru and Inutaisho turned to them and growled, allowing their eyes to bleed crimson. This was to say 'back the fuck off'. Inuyasha met up with his mate and bowed with Reisuzaku to Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru nodded and took his mate's hand into his own and continued to their way to the alter. Inutaisho and Reisuzaku followed after them. When they reached the alter they smiled. Kaede had made it and she was happy to bind the two.
"Do ye, Sesshomaru, Lord of the West and firstborn son of the great Dog General Lord Inutaisho, take Inuyasha, as ye mate in this life and all of eternity?" Sesshomaru looked down at his mate and his heart raced. This was it…
"I do." Sesshomaru said clearly. Kaede nodded and looked at Inuyasha.
"Do ye Inuyasha, secondborn son of the great Dog General Lord Inutaisho and firstborn son of Princess Izayoi, take Lord Sesshomaru, Lord of the West as ye mate in this life and all of eternity?"
"I do." Inuyasha said with a blush. Sesshomaru looked at him and smiled. Kaede looked at them and stepped aside for Inutaisho to take over.
"To conclude this ceremony," He said in a clear commanding voice, "You will mark each other. These marks will be your declarations to all the world, human and demon alike. Sesshomaru, Lord of the West, as the Alpha, you will commence first." Sesshomaru nodded to his father and held Inuyasha close, bring down the left side of Inuyasha's kimono and exposing his creamy neck. With a growl heralding his dominance, Sesshomaru allowed his fangs to grow and pierce the warm supple skin of his brother's neck. Inuyasha whimpered and felt the color rising to his cheeks. He was enjoying it but as soon as it begun, it had ended. Sesshomaru broke away and stood before him, lips were rouged with his blood. Inutaisho nodded his approval and turned to Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha, Savior of the World and Lord of the West, as the Beta, you will mark your Alpha now." Inuyasha nodded and leaned into his Alpha and after licking his mate's neck, sank his fangs in. Sesshomaru moaned, then purred. He held Inuyasha tightly and after five minutes, guided him away. Inuyasha's lips were rouged with Sesshomaru's blood. Inutaisho caught their attention and smiled.
"Now, join your blood, your hearts and souls." He commanded. The two looked at each other and kissed each other. The room erupted into a thunderous applause and sobs. It was done and there were two Lords of the West (three if you counted Inutaisho). The two younger ones parted and smiled. They were together and no one could part them. Sesshomaru purred and held his mate. He was happy. He had his mate and he had a pup on the way. In addition to that he had his father back. He was about to kiss his mate again when a horrible wind picked up and with a growl Inuyasha was put behind Sesshomaru. Reisuzaku looked up and couldn't believe it. It can't be! The Celestial Monarch! When he comes…it only means…that…
A handsome man dressed in navy blue, black and silver, with midnight blue hair flowing down to his calves looked at Sesshomaru with a glare that could freeze his blood. He looked young but Reisuzaku knew otherwise. His cerulean blue eyes were ringed with silver and a hint of iced blue.
"I see that I wasn't invited." He said acidly. "How is that come to pass?"
"It was MY doing." Inutaisho said as he glared at the newcomer. "You are not welcome here Seiyusenshi."
"INUTASIHO?!" The man exclaimed. "How are you alive?!"
"I was frozen thanks to your son." Inutaisho growled. Inuyasha's eyes widened in horror at his father's statement. His… son?
"What happened to him?"
"He was killed." Inutaisho said. "His sick obsession with my pup and the rivalry with my older son killed him."
"What are you saying Dog General??"
"I'm saying this: you're son was a fool to join with Naraku and not think that he would be destroyed."
"My son would never…" Seiyusenshi said. "I taught him better!"
"He KILLED my father as well." Inutaisho said. Seiyusenshi looked like he was going to be sick.
"Seiru?!" He asked. "The Silver Monarch??"
"Yes, my own father."
"For what reason?"
"Unknown to me to this day." Inutaisho said. The other demon looked at the Dog General and bowed his head.
"I had no idea. And Reisuzaku, old man when are you returning?"
"Returning?" Inutaisho and Inuyasha asked. Reisuzaku looked at them with a sad smile.
"I do have bad news." He said. "Every one thousand years I have to return to the sun or I will die."
"But I've…." Inutaisho began. Reisuzaku sighed sadly when Seiyusenshi smiled.
"Inutaisho you can go with him."
"Will we be able to come back and see the children?"
"That I'm afraid is out of the question." The dark haired monarch said. "Reisuzaku I have held out as long I could for you. You must return soon. Otherwise there will be chaos and you know it."
"I understand my Liege." The dark haired Monarch nodded and turned to the newly bounded couple.
"I can not undo what my son has done." He began. "For that I am forever shamed. However, if you will permit me, I offer my alliance to you and well wishes for your wedding day."
"We thank you Lord Seiyusenshi." Inuyasha said as he looked at his mate and saw the same thoughts in his eyes. "We bid you welcome and I'm sure my Alpha will accept your alliance as well."
"I do." Sesshomaru said. "But why does Reisuzaku have to leave?"
"My lad, a phoenix demon can not survive after a thousand years on Earth. Therefore after the thousand years, I usually come down and remind him and to check on the earth in which I reign. It has been as such for eons."
"Boy you are old!" Inuyasha said. Sesshomaru and Inutaisho had to bite back their laughter. Reisuzaku looked at him in shock. Seiyusenshi surprised them all by laughing.
"I know that I don't look it. That's a perk of being a full demon." The monarch said. "I'm giving you a week Rei, but no more. Again, I wish you both well Lords of the West and good luck on your marriage." With that the monarch was gone leaving behind a beautiful pendent and new chest armor. Both were silver with black diamond and moonstone. With it came a note; To enhance your ability and show where my alliance lie. Respectfully, Lord Seiyusenshi, Celestial Monarch.
Well Sesshomaru and Inuyasha tied the knot...finally! Yukisenshi's dad turned out be a good guy! Whew! Anyway what will happen to Reisuzaku and will inutaisho go with him? Review to get the last chapter!
