Inuyasha huffed as he walked behind the group. He was happy since his sword's heavy weight was no longer an issue. Totosai told him he needed to prove himself for the sword to lighten. It was complete bullshit. The only thing that would have made the situation worse would be if Totosai had told that winged menace that claimed to be his primary caregiver when he was young. It was bad enough the pest was a former general of Hyoga that was apparently a spy for Sesshomaru's mother all along, but the damned moth seemed to have made it his life's goal to harass him at every turn in his life. Nothing about the bug could be trusted.

The soft flutter of insect wings filled the air as Inuyasha and company made their camp. The Hanyo scented the air before growling. Think of a demon and they will appear.

"What's up with you Inuyasha?" Shippo asked.

"An annoying bug that never leaves me alone." He growled in reply.

A lyrical laugh sounded through the night putting the group on high alert. They pressed back to back with their weapons ready as they analyzed their heavily wooded surroundings. The voice had echoed all around them without a definite source in sight.

"Come now darling is that any way to treat your nanny dearest." The voice chirped.

The group turned with weapons ready only to see a cloud of sparkling green powder. Inuyasha scowled.

"Show yourself pest!"

The laughter echoed around them until a tall lithe figure emerged from the powder. Long teal hair cascaded down their back, a pair of eyes matching it glittered with mischief, various magenta colored markings littered their pale skin. A pair of ivory colored antenna protruded from their forehead and a large pair of silvery Luna moth wings extended from their back. A long, slitted, backless cream cheongsam hugged torso and gave his wings room to flutter. He wore white bandages on his legs and no shoes.

"My little puppy is all grown up." The unknown demon cooed at the Hanyo.

"And you're still as batshit crazy as you were 50 years ago Noel!" Inuyasha growled.

Noel smiled sweetly at his charge before rushing forward too fast for the others to react. The moth yokai had Inuyasha in his arms cradling the flailing boy to his chest. He tilted the hanyo's head up with a finger making a tsking at the younger boy's flailing. The difference in their height, strength, and the hanyo's uneasiness was proof that the being before them was a daiyokai.

"Now now puppy is that how I taught you to speak to your elders? Do I need to reinstate the parchment punishment?" Noel smiled.

Inuyasha whimpered in his hold and shook his head in fear of the elder Demon's threat. The group was in various states of shock and awe.

"Just be glad your father assigned me to you or you would have been stuck with my resting bitch face of a husband." Noel huffed petting inuyasha's ears. "Luckily he still had his hands full with Sesshomaru's huge ass ego."

The others were utterly speechless. This foreign demon had come from absolutely nowhere and turned the loud and broody Inuyasha into a whiny puppy with a few words and forced cuddles.

"Now then my dreary little pup what happened to your sword? I sensed the fang breaking and rushed here as soon as I could." Noel cooed.

Kagome choked on air at his words.

"That was weeks ago though!" She shrieked causing everyone to wince in pain.

Inuyasha, still held tightly in the older demon's grasp, glanced up at the older demon before speaking in clear exasperation.

"Why are you really here?"

"Because we heard that Hyoga's trashy brat was trying to take over." Another voice interrupted from the air.

Noel pouted as a darker male appeared in the sky, flapping his large inky black feather wings, with a scowl. His blood red eyes glared at everyone present. Inuyasha paled further and buried his face into the silk clothed chest of the moth. He flew down before the two and tugged Inuyasha from the tealette's arms.

"Stop babying the little shit he obviously handled everything here so we need to get back to our main priorities." He growled shoving Inuyasha toward his friends.

"But Xanxus." Noel whined. "I don't want to deal with the Lady's guests anymore they're so stuffy and prudish."

Xanxus sneered at the others pout before wrapping a thick arm around the others narrow waist. He nosed the side of Noel's neck scenting him before pulling back to glare at the hanyo.

"You rubbed your wet dog stench all over him." He growled. "Your just like your damn father, mutt had to scent mark everything he thought was his."

Noel giggled and slapped the other's arm playfully.

"Hush Xan you know it was nothing like that." He said placating the crow demon. "Our Lord only did that so Sesshomaru would pick it up on me as a babe. Our Lady was very aware of that."

Inuyasha was shocked at Noel's words feeling a bit of envy well up within him.

"What does Sesshomaru have to do with anything." He glared up at the man who practically raised him.

Xanxus smirked kissing the side of Noel's head and tugging Inuyasha on the ear. Inuyasha swatted him away before unintentionally giving big puppy eyes to Noel. The moth demon squealed pulling the teen back into his arms in a constricting hug.

"You are just too precious for words." Noel laughed petting the hanyo into submission. "Just because I am your main watcher does not mean I ONLY helped with you."

"You always were a jealous little shit." Xanxus snarked flapping his wings as he kicked off into the air.

"FUCK OFF OLD MAN!" Inuyasha yelled.

"Inuyasha what have I told you about your language." Noel said calmly.

Inuyasha whimpered as the moth demon pulled a thick parchment roll from seemingly nowhere.
