A/n: Thanks for all the reviews; it'll take ten more to write the third
chapter. As to answer some questions: Oh this one switches between two
settings, the first Inu and his Brother then to Kagome and her mum. I'm
not sure whether they'll meet this chapter or the next, depends on the
reviews.
Teo: Yes Yasha is Inuyasha
Aylee the Dragon: The Glass Prison Kagome talks about is her confinement to royalty. She is can send people to their deaths with a wave of her hand but she can't even leave the castle grounds. It's sorta like she can see the outside world but she can't touch it.
FaNfIcLuVeR (FiReDeMoN271@msn.com) - I'll try to make longer chapters, they all seem so much longer in a word document, I'll go for more pages.
Sika-chan- If you want to proofread for me contact me by email at fortune_84@hotmail.com, give me a clear title, maybe something that say's proofreading my story on it. I get so much Spam in my email nowadays I don't even trust things that say Hi for a subject.
Anyway on with the story p.s. I think for all my chapters they'll have song title's from Dream Theater. They just work so well.
Chapter II
War Inside my Head
Neru Forest, just on the outskirts of the Kingdom of Barrant (formerly Higurashi)
"I won't do it." Inuyasha answered bluntly. There was no way he was going to do this. 'But I have to, don't I? For Father, for mother'. Sesshoumaru looked down upon his younger brother with exasperation. It had taken months to get this all set up and now he was going to blow it due to embarrassment. The timing was perfect, the King desperate to find a suitor for the princess. This was an opportunity for them to make a break through. If this plan worked the rebellion would stand a chance. "Inuyasha, brother, if you don't do this every thing we worked for is lost." Inuyasha sat with one eyebrow raised and an expression that clearly pronounced, "I don't give a damn". Sighing Sesshoumaru continued "For not even an entire day you act as a Prince, be treat the Princess as she treats you, like a royal. Plus, if she's a bitch toward you at the end of the night you get to knock her out!" Sesshoumaru smirked at the smile that danced across his brother's face at the last line. "Now go to Lady Kaede's to get ready" "Alright I'll do it" Inuyasha complied with feigned irritation. 'So I get to knock the prissy wench out? Now that is something I can barter with'. He thought happily as he marched toward Kaede's hut.
Barrant Kingdom: Queens Quarters
"Mama why do I have to do this again" Kagome demanded from her mother, who was perched on the window seat. "Kagome, you're doing this again because you chased away all your other suitors." The Queens delicate voice drifted through the air, giving it a mystical effect. She sat fiddling with a lock of her own curly hair, looking for all the world like she did not belong there. Kagome couldn't help but envy her mother, she was gorgeous, young, and above all else a Queen. 'If I was a Queen, I could ruin my damnable stepfather. He is going to start a war, and despite how common wars between 2 kingdoms have become, I fear this one will end them all, for better or worse I'm not sure.' "Kagome?!" the Queens voice finally reached her ears, startling Kagome a bit. "Yes Mother, what is it" Kagome said absently. "I asked if you would like to know about this Prince your meeting" Kagome nodded slowly, still clearing her head of some previous thoughts. "Well, from what we were told is that he is quite handsome. He has long black hair, dark eyes, and from what is said a body to die for." Her mother giggled she was still like a young girl. She had Kagome when she was only 12, almost 30 and she still acted as a maiden. Kagome's "winning" personality is the only thing that kept her from the same fate as her mother. "Age?" Kagome asked. "Seventeen years" "How about personality?" "errr, well they said he was a bit hot tempered, but you should be able to handle that." The Queen said with a tinge of annoyance. The Queen was under the impression, due to the Kings influence, that Kagome scorned all her suitors to ruin the King. Now this simply wasn't true, Kagome spurned her suitors because she didn't want to marry them, damaging her stepfather was simply an added bonus. "Kagome" the Queen's voice was gentle and serious now. "I know that he isn't your father, he knows it, you know it. If you can't treat him like your father at least treat him like your king." Her eyes spoke volumes to Kagome. The Queen didn't care what her husband did or didn't do, she just wanted a happy family, for her husband and daughter to get along. Kagome swallowed her pride for once. "I'll give this one a chance Mama. That's all I can promise." The Queen smiled at her daughter bringing her into a loving embrace. Kagome didn't know whether she had done the right thing by saying that, but she would stick by it. "Now then let's get you ready for tonight's meeting shall we?" the Queen said cheerfully.
Neru Forest-Keade's hut "Oh HELL NO!" Inuyasha yelled as Kaede and a few of the maids, came closer. "There is no way in seven hells, that you guys are giving me a bath!!" his voice had become louder now, with a hint of panic. His escape to the door was halted when the said object flung open behind him. "And where do you think your going ?" asked an unmistakable female voice. There in the door way stood expert bounty hunter and childhood friend Sango. "Inuyasha, you're going to take a damn bath, whether you want to or not." She said calmly. "Now we can do this the hard way or the hard way or the you end up unconscious way". "Keh" with that Inuyasha ran towards the door intending to plow past Sango.
*WHACK* *BOOM* *CRASH* An unconscious Inuyasha now sat in a small cylinder washtub, surrounded by several old women with soap and washcloths. Sango stood with a triumphant and satisfied smile on her face. That smile was replaced by a frown when she felt a familiar pat on her ass. "HOUSHI!!!" Sango left the house that day, leaving behind two unconscious males.
Later that evening
"I'm not coming out." Inuyasha said threw the door. Kaede sighed, that boy could be such a pain in the ass. "Inuyasha if you don't come out I'll send for Sango- Chan again." Kaede smirked as the reluctant Hanyou came outside. He was wearing a samurai's kimono, which wasn't the problem. His problem was, that at the current moment and until tomorrow night, a human. His violet eyes were darting everywhere, and he kept rubbing them, attempting to adjust them to the dark. "Come on Inuyasha, you have to get going" Sesshoumaru yelled to his brother, as he held the reigns to a black mare. "Sango and Miroku will be with you. Now we'll be waiting for you at 10:00 p.m. tomorrow night, here. We'll be leaving as soon as you get here." Sesshoumaru patted his brother's shoulder and went to stand by Kaede. "Lets go" Inuyasha commanded once he had gotten onto his horse. With that they three rode off towards the castle. None of them new it then, but this expedition is where the story of the The Great Demon War began. To be continued
A/n tried to make it longer but sometimes it's just so hard. OH well shorter chapters mean more chapters. Anyway, I decided to make Sango a bounty hunter, since being a demon exterminator would be akward since she lives in a village of people and demons.
