Oh, great, now you've gone and done it. You've broken the internet.
Not really, but I saw that on Angelfire and I loved it so much I decided to put it on here. I like it a lot. It's funny.
Another chapter, and before it all begins, I have some stuff to say.
I would like to thank those who prayed for my friend. She's getting professional help now, and on drugs, so thank you so much. (Tired grin) She's happy I told, which is nice.
To get personal, I would like to thank those who reviewed to my problem.
To reader(): Thank you for caring enough to send your own story, sort of. It really helped me too.
To ChristyKay(): Thanks for praying for her. The problem was, she was considering suicide for a year before she told me, and I just found out that last Friday, June 6. So, by June 8, my parents knew and my parents called her parents, who got her help by June 10. It all happened really fast, but it's good now.
I'm sorry if this is a weird set-up, but this darn site won't let me get this chapter up in story format.
Well, thanks to those who waited patiently for this chapter. Chapter 4, and still moving on, sluggishly, but moving on.
Warning: Those who hate Kikyo/Inuyasha pairings, beware this chapter. Read it, it's important, but don't attack your computer for what Kikyo will say. (^_^!!!)

Previously:
"What if you get me something?"
"Anything!" he shouted. Perfect. Too easy and complicated for a simple fool like him. She grinned knowingly and turned back to him.
"Fine. Get me the Shikon no Tama."
__________________________
Inuyasha blinked in surprise. "The- the Shikon no Tama?" he hissed. "Are you crazy?"
Kikyo put on her best pouting face. "If you really loved me, you'd at least try. Besides, how hard can it be for a big," she paused and started walking her fingers up his arm, "strong, handsome, courageous, lovable man like you." By this time, she had reached his shoulder and had his full attention.
"I'll do it," he murmured as if in a trance. "Just tell me when."
Kikyo smiled. "Tonight," she whispered, as if it was suddenly very important. "I'll come and let you go. Once you get me the Shikon no Tama, you can go free, no strings attached." She could see a light in his eyes glow at the prospect of being free.
"Thank you, Milady," Inuyasha muttered, his voice husky suddenly. Kikyo smiled at him, knowing what he wanted, but she did not care. She simply wanted the Shikon no Tama, and she was going to get it.
"Inu-chan, I need to go," she whispered. Inuyasha kissed her quickly before he did let her go, moving to the side to let her pass. Kikyo looked into his totally infatuated face and smiled seductively. "Good night," she muttered enticingly. Inuyasha swallowed and could only let out a grunt before he smiled in return.
"Tonight?"
"Tonight. Be ready."
"I will. Good night."
"Good night."

Rin was more than nervous. She was terrified. Kaede could see that much. After Kagome had insisted that Rin tell their mother, Kaede had asked to see this so-called wild man. If he had survived a mantrap and could stand, certainly he could be a powerful warrior, if taught the use of their weapons. And, if what Rin said was true, Kaede might have a use for him.
The general smiled inwardly, but made no sign of it on her face as she followed her daughters down the hall. Though her children may not know it, each flick of their hair, each shift of their eyes, and each movement in itself opened a book to her. Kaede could tell everything they thought or felt, what they wanted to do, what they were going to do. Friend or foe, Kaede could read anyone clearly.
There was a reason she was general.
Trailing behind the women were Jaken and Shippou. Kaede had called for these men to come just in case. Though she was a powerful woman and always ready for a brawl, she now had two daughters with her to worry about. Two men could be good back up.
Kaede waited politely as Rin entered her room to warn her guest of the other visitors. After a moment, Rin waved her mother in and Kaede entered. Before her stood the man her daughter had rescued.
He was tall and thin, muscular and broad-shouldered. His face was well proportioned and refined. If she did not know better, she could have thought him a young lord from her homeland. His hair might have been too long for hygiene and other requirements, but that could be fixed. His legs were torn and mauled, but she could see from the stains on the bandages that he was healing already and the bleeding had stopped.
Yes, he would do.
Kaede had not moved; she had just stood still and examined him with her eyes. Now, she could see that her silence had affected them all. Her soldiers were silent and unmoving, just as the training had pushed for, but the nervous flickering of their eyes was obvious to her. Her daughters were wringing their hands and smoothing their hair in fear. She did not focus on those four people though. She had expected those kinds of reactions from them.
The man's expression was still static and emotionless, except for slight tremors in his arms and up his back that could have simply been waves of pain from his mangled legs. She calmly looked into his golden eyes, which was hard since she had not seen golden eyes before, except for on that one prisoner's eyes. She saw no emotion in them.
She knew better. The most high-ranking Homeland generals would break under her stare. He would be no different.
As she predicted, he soon started looking to random areas at random times. She did nothing, though, for a moment, letting him worry before a rugged grin cracked her weathered features.
"What is your name?" she asked in a no-nonsense voice. She knew that this clashed with her sincere grin, but she did not care one bit.
"Sesshoumaru."
"Do you have any loyalties to any clans?" she asked in a softer tone, remembering Rin's reluctance to talk about the fact he had been exiled. Sesshoumaru's eyes flashed before hardening.
"No."
"If your brother was to attack my daughter, any daughter, but for imagination's sake, Rin, would you protect her at any cost?"
"I do not have a brother."
"Pretend for me," Kaede commanded. Sesshoumaru was silent for a moment before he nodded slowly. "Good. Now, go lie down. Those spasms have been getting terrible." Sesshoumaru did not look surprised in the least that she had known they had been getting bad, but that did not matter. What did was that he obeyed her quickly and without question. So few of her younger soldiers did that. There was another plus to her checklist.
"Jaken."
"Yes, Ma'am?"
"As of now, Sesshoumaru is second personal guard to Rin. This young man has great potential."
"B-but General!" Jaken stuttered in protest, but a harsh glare from Kaede silenced him. "Yes, General Kaede."
"You will be superior to Sesshoumaru, if that makes you feel better," she whispered quietly to Jaken. She was not surprised, though, when she heard a loud shout of protest from the other room. Improved senses: check. She straightened up and, fighting a smile, she shouted, "Sesshoumaru, it is considered, in our culture, rude to listen to a conversation you are not invited into."
"In my culture, it is considered folly to place the weak in command of the strong," his deep voice answered agitatedly. Good judge of ability: check. Kaede could feel Jaken stiffen in anger, but she only shrugged.
"You two men figure this out yourselves," she decided, shooting a glare at Jaken to keep him under control. "If you will excuse me," she added, "I have some business to attend to."

Inuyasha yawned. Finally, Blabbermouth across the way had fallen asleep. He was a blabbermouth too. Even if Inuyasha had wanted to put in his two- cent worth, he would not have been able to. Blabbermouth's jaw never stopped working.
He turned his attention down the hallway as drunken laughter filled the air. The jailer was drinking his way to oblivion, and any moment now he was bound to pass out.
A hollow thud announced the jailer's loss of consciousness. Inuyasha frowned. Where was Kikyo? Surely she had not forgotten him! A small voice in his head told him she had, but another argued she could not have.
The jail door opened suddenly, but the customary squeak did not accompany it. Someone had greased the hinges. Excited, Inuyasha stood to greet the tiptoed steps coming toward him.
Kikyo stepped into view, twirling the jailer's set of rings. "He always was a sucker for wine and a raving fool for brandy," she explained quietly. She unlocked the door and opened it wide enough for him to go through. "Go and be free," she whispered to him. "But remember, to obtain my approval, you must get me the Shikon no Tama."
Inuyasha grinned and winked. "I'll get you that little jewel, believe me. I'll get it to you in a week or not at all."
Kikyo smiled her sweetest smile. "Of course you will. Best of luck to you, Inuyasha." With that, Inuyasha gave Kikyo a quick peck on the cheek and was gone. Kikyo smiled after him, but this smile was not warming or soft. Rather, it was more of a smirk than a smile.
Everything was going according to plan. None of her mother's guards could keep him in, and the legendary jewel would be hers.
______________________________
That's it folks! Five pages, which is short, I know, but the next part was so long, I decided to place it in chapter five, and the last part of chapter five in chapter six.
So, relax all those who are upset about Kikyo. If you hate Kikyo, I'm doing my job (again)!
This is fun, really, making people dislike imaginary characters placed in imaginary settings.
Nothing to do, nothing to say.
Review! REVIEW!!!
The faster you review, the faster I will type to post the next chapters!
Oh, there's a really funny story called "The Best Story I've Ever Written." I recommend it. It's short, sweet, and it is good for all those who despise Kikyo. Believe me, you'll like it.
Any questions, ask. I like being asked questions. It helps me develop the story line better for future purposes, like fashioning this to an original story, since the story line is original. The characters are not!
OH, yeah, I've been forgetting.
DO NOT OWN THIS INCREDIBLE ANIME!!
You know, my friends usually choose characters and we place ourselves in every anime we come across. We haven't even tried it in Inuyasha. It's too good to do that to.
I've got something new up, but I'm not sure what to do with it, so maybe you could read it, if you want. I think it's called Secondary, but I cannot remember. They did not let me put it up under the same title as the other parts of it. And I forgot to put the disclaimers on those stories.
Oops.
So, I've finish rambling. REVIEW!!!
