Playful Times (sometimes not) Chapter 29

"Talking"

'Thinking'

'Talking as animal'

'What just happened? I actually feel. Whole.' Inuyasha thought after the hanyou in front of him disappeared.

Kagome on the other hand wasn't even paying attention to her mates musings she was still staring at where the kitsune had been standing.

"Umm Inuyasha how do you feel at the moment?"

"Good actually. Why?"

"It doesn't bother you that she just disappeared right in front of us."

'It does. But can't we talk about this later? I mean we are expected.'

'Why aren't you talking aloud.'

'Do you want to put all of our guests in an uproar?'

Mulling over this Kagome decided that for once her mate was correct.

"Fine if that's the way you want it we'll talk later." As she started shuffling across the courtyard she just about screamed in frustration. "I can't move in this stupid thing."

"You look good in it."

Turning to Inuyasha Kagome bowed and said. "Thank you kind sir." Then finished by screaming. "BUT IT MAKES ME ALMOST DEFENCELESS."

Shuddering at what she could if the need arose Inuyasha wisely stayed silent verbally as well as mentally. Then he felt familiar sting followed by slurping which led to a SLAP.

"Greetings Lord Inuyasha." Myoga groaned out as he floated into Inuyasha's palm. "Delectable as alw- wait. He said as he smacked his mandibles together then asked. "Did a Kitsune hanyou happen to pass by?"

"Yes. Why?" Inuyasha asked.

"Oh this is tragic how could this happen." Myoga said putting his head in his four hands. Quickly sobering he asked Inuyasha. "Did she by any chance come into contact with you in any way."

"Yes. Why?" Inuyasha starting to get agitated with his retainer.

Falling into his thinking pose. (which is him sitting with his legs crossed and his arms across his chest) Myoga said "Hmm it seems to me that since she touched you."

Getting tired of waiting for an answer to his question Inuyasha grabbed him between his thumb and forefinger asking. "What is it flea?"

To which Myoga screamed. "Itmeansthatthecurseisawakened."

With a placid look on his face he said. "Myoga."

Looking at his lord the flea ventured. "Yes."

Inuyasha's face seemed to explode in anger as he squished Myoga and said. "Is that all." dropping him as he walked across the courtyard. Meanwhile the flea pancake floated to the ground as Myoga squeaked out. "Such is the fate of a flea."

When Inuyasha got to the room that the gathering was in Sesshomaru was there to pull him aside.

"I'm going to be making the announcements shortly so you need to join your mate over there." Sesshomaru said pointing to the platform erected at the other end of the room.

Grumbling as he went Inuyasha made his way to the indicated end of the room. Where he found his mate as well as Miroku, Sango, Souta, and Rin.

On the platform Sesshomaru made himself known. "Attention honored guests this Sesshomaru has a few announcements to make." When all present had given him their full attention he continued. "My first announcement is that I have found for myself a suitable heir." As he was saying this Rin walked onto the platform dragging Souta with her. "I give you my adopted daughter Rin and her betrothed Souta of the eastern lands currently under the smith Totosai's tutelage."

As was to be expected a few scattered clapping of hands but for the most part those gathered where asking amongst themselves as to what prompted this action.

Calling attention to himself again as Rin and Souta left the stage he continued. "My next announcement is that Tsuyoshi of the northern lands who lost his mate and heirs to the recently vanquished fiend Naraku has chosen a new heir from the group that relieved us of Naraku's presence." Before he continued he beckoned the persons in question to the spotlight. "I give unto you the former monk Miroku and his mate Sango of the demon slayers."

This brought quite a few supporters. Some even yelling that they approved of this action.

When the tumult calmed down Sesshomaru continued not missing a beat. "This Sesshomaru's final announcement pertains to my fathers last request of me. My half brother has fulfilled all the requirements to take control of his half of the western lands and is residing lord of the castle you are in at the moment. Though most know of the requirements it will be explained for those who do not." At hearing this Inuyasha glared at his brother since this was the first he had heard of it.(AN: Knowing Inuyasha this was probably a good thing) "First he has succeeded in finding a suitable mate. Second these two are proud parents of six pups. Meaning they aren't lacking an heir." At this announcement the crowd literally erupted with good feedback for Inuyasha and Kagome causing her to blush she walked onto the platform with Inuyasha. Upon seeing the two on the stage the crowd went nuts much to the shock of the residents.

Sesshomaru mumbled into Inuyasha's ear. "that was taken better than this Sesshomaru had hoped."

Inuyasha quietly asked in an angry tone. "Why was I not told that their was requirements?"

"Better to not know and unwittingly fulfill said requirements than to know and constantly botch it up. Though I must say it took you long enough little brother. Know all that's left to finish out our family is to find our half sister."

With a surprised look Inuyasha spun towards his half-brother but before he uttered a word Sesshomaru said. "This Sesshomaru will explain tomorrow. Tonight is for you so enjoy yourself."

Now with a lot on his mind Inuyasha went with Kagome to mingle with their guests. Coming upon one group Kagome overheard someone say. "I remember the prophesy that was told from the first generation of us demons."

"Well what is it." Said someone else in the group.

The first speaker replied. "It says that six siblings born at the same time will save demon and hanyou alike from their worst enemy."

"Do you know if Inuyasha's hatchlings are sextuplets?" said the Phoenix Lord in the group.

"Not a clue we could ask."

At this remark Kagome spoke up taking the group of demon lords by surprise(The weren't paying attention to their surroundings). "Yes they are sextuplets. And what is this prophecy y'all are babbling about?"

"Well you see Lady Kagome." The original speaker who was a Four tailed kitsune prince started twiddling his thumbs before continuing. "The original comers of our kind to this world passed down a prophesy that goes like this." Taking a ew breaths the prince started reciting. "When trouble rears its ugly head look to the six born at one birth to help ease your tribulations." When he finished Kagome had a questioning look on her face.

"That makes absolutely no sense and neither does the one that my brother heard about us." Kagome told them.

Shrugging the phoenix replied. "Hardly anything does when taken at face value. It's just something to think about." That said the group broke up leaving Kagome very confused.

After that everything went smoothly. Meaning that there were no conflicts.(If you don't call Koga and Inuyasha trowing insults at each other conflict.)

After most everybody had settled down for the night. Those that Inuyasha had invited to stay for the night because he wished to speak with them the next day occupied a few of the guest rooms the rest where on their way home or secured their own lodging.

Looking into Inuyasha and Kagome's room found them trying to figure out how to untie a very complex knot. It had been made to look like a flower but at this moment it looked like a mess.

"Inuyasha are you done yet." An exasperated Kagome asked.

"I think I got i- And no. Can't I just just cut it to get it off?"

"No I want to keep it. Tomorrow I'm going to have the person that made this knot make it again. Except not on me."

"Fine." Pulling on another of the strands the rest just fell away. Allowing Kagome to sigh with relief. "Finally I thought I was never going to be able to breathe again."

"I don't know about you but I'm ready to collapse here so let's just let tomorrow take care of itself till we're ready to greet it.

Inuyasha was answered by a lite snore from Kagome who hadn't even bothered to finish undressing.

Looking at his mate Inuyasha kissed heron the cheek before he joined her in the bliss called sleep.

OOooOOooOOooOO

Another chapter is done.

What is going through that mind of yours.

Well I would like the reviewers opinion on whether I should give Kagome a curse as well or curse Inuyasha on top of his current curse. Which by the way is going to be coming to light in the next chapter.

Well peoples that should be more incentive to review so please do. Chou.
