A/N: Well I tried to make this chapter longer, with just a tinge of I/K
fluff. I would like to thank Sika-shan for proofreading. Also I'd like to
note, in this story I gave Inuyasha a 24 hour human thing for story
purposes and just wanting to make jokes about inu later on and his
Cinderella like quality.
Chapter III Is this fate or am I just that Unlucky
His eyes were pools of violet, emotions swimming through its depths. Hair like silk, so rich and full. Kagome had never been a shallow person, appearance never had any effect on her, well at least on her heart. All of her cold and callus attitude, which had been perfected over the years fled as their eyes met.
"Kagome allow me to introduce you to Prince Yasha Kamura." The King said. "Kamura-sama, this is Princess Kagome Higurashi."
Kagome determined to not look bad curtsied. "Pleased to make your acquaintance, your highness."
Inu Yasha remembering it was for his parents, took Kagome's hand to his lips replying, "The pleasure is all mine, princess." before kissing her hand lightly. Kagome blushed despite herself. Recovering quickly she offered.
"M' lady allow me to introduce my servant San and my advisor Miro," Yasha said gesturing to his two companions. Kagome had been so enamored with Yasha she had failed to notice the other two.
"Good day your highness." The two resounded in unison, bowing as they said it.
"Chakra, come ere'." The king said to a nearby servant. "Please show these two to their quarters." Sango and Miroku were then shuffled off towards the downstairs, which just happened to be the coed servants quarters.
'So I get to have a one on one chat with the royal wench.' Inu Yasha couldn't believe this, he was stuck with miss goody two shoes, swooning her bloody ass for his remainder here. 'Well slap me silly and call me stupid, I've been saddled with the worst of jobs.'
"Kagome, why don't you show Lord Kamura to his chambers," the king requested or in other words ordered.
"Yes Sir. This way M' lord," Kagome took Inu Yasha's offered arm, leading him out of the entrance towards a flight of stairs. Once out of the King's sight Kagome's face took on a disgusted sneer. 'I can't let him win, no matter how handsome this prince is.' She immediately dropped his arm and started up the stairs at a faster pace.
'What the hell?' Inu Yasha was confused that little miss perfect here, just stopped acting perfect. 'Seems Daddy has a hold on her, until he's out of sight,' He smirked. 'And the fun begins.'
"So a little bit less than perfect once Daddy's gone, aren't we princess." Inu Yasha's tone was cruel, insulting, and laced with sarcasm. Kagome had her reason to bitch him out and scare him off.
"Well now were not so well mannered when the King's not around now are we?" she smirked at his stunned expression. "Oh and on another note, he isn't my father. He is an abusive drunk who brings in pricks like your self to marry me off for power."
Inu Yasha's expression was priceless, his wit squelched. "He wants you gone??" All of there plans could be ruined, if she held no value to him the plan was for naught.
"Gone yes, but for a price. Your Kingdom is what he wants. I'm of value due to the fact that I can bring him a Kingdom through marriage. Though I am trying my absolute best to mess that up." Kagome ranted, not catching the interest that was sparked in Inu Yasha's eye.
"So if you think for one second that I'll just fall into your arms and swoon then you've got another thing coming, mister." Kagome was so wrapped up in her tirade she didn't notice Inu Yasha advancing toward her.
"If you were to be kidnapped would it even make a difference?" his voice once again was serious and his speech soft. 'What is this? One minute he's poking fun at me the next he is sympathetic and caring' Kagome thought.
"Yes it would matter to him, I'm a valuable asset you jackass!" she hissed at him. "Though he isn't my father I'm still heir to the throne. It's my duty to carry it on, but unfortunately for you I plan to run it myself when he dies."
"Well you won't have a problem with the virgin part but they'll never allow you to be queen." He said his quick tongue coming back to him.
"What is that supposed to mean?" "Which part?" "Both, you Prick." "Well you're undesirable and will forever be a virgin, and second the grand council will never except a female ruler." Kagome was silent, she didn't mind his virgin comment, but the part about the council was true. She was a woman and despite the ever-growing power of women nowadays, a Queen ruling would never be permitted. The law firmly stated that no woman could rule. Despite the facts she couldn't let him win.
"The council may say what ever they god damned like to, I will rule this Kingdom and if I marry it will be by choice and for love."
"Love doesn't exist to royals!" Inu Yasha yelled. "It doesn't matter how high up you are in the ranks, if you fall for anyone below your station your shunned. Royalty doesn't marry for love, we marry out of duty, out of power, for every thing but love." Inu Yasha took a deep breath to calm himself. "In this world, power matters to everyone. They don't care whether you have found your soul mate, or if your parents die. It's an iron throne, and it holds no comfort."
Kagome was stunned; this self centered, arrogant man had passion. His words held no mocking tones only the honest, brutal truth. "I want to change the law. That's why I want to become a Queen without a king. I have to prove them all wrong. They cannot appoint a King without me, unless the King has an heir. My mother has yet to bore him one, but even if she does I will preserve. This will be my Kingdom someday, I intend to make it right again."
InuYasha lifted his eyes to behold the strong woman before him. She was naïve, but also good hearted and strong. He almost felt bad for his earlier perceptions of her, almost. She had a strong will, and despite his comments she was very beautiful, but like she said, he was a stubborn jackass.
"Kagome."
"What do you want?" her tone was dripping with venom.
"If you want to take down your step father, I can help you."
"What? How can you.. why would you?" Kagome managed to utter.
"You see we share the same hate, the same sorrow, the same goal."
"And what's that?" Kagome acted.
"To exact revenge against the one who murdered our fathers. King Alexander Van Barrant!"
