CHAPTER 14

~*~*~*SESSHOUMARU'S POV*~*~*~

Hn, so the wench was back, strange how her aura is so easy to detect. No wonder demons find them so easily. Never mind the jewel's aura, the wench's aura stands out so much you wouldn't have to be brain dead to find it.

It's been a little over three years, but she came back. I had hoped that she had left this place for good and found some bastard human to mate with and leave my family alone. All that work changing Inuyasha for nothing. She comes back for what, a few days? And Inuyasha is already beginning to convert back to his old self. I wouldn't be surprised if began to regain his memories soon. Damn that witch, it was extremely hard to get everything set up correctly and she was already undoing all my hard work.

~*~*~*FLASHBACK IN AUTHOR'S POV*~*~*~

"Do you understand, Gingira? You kitsunes are known for your tricks and magic, so I expect nothing less than perfection. Nothing can go wrong, otherwise you shall pay for it with your own life."

"Hai, Sesshoumaru-sama. Everything is ready and waiting to be set in motion," bowed the kitsune. She wore a simple light green kimono that was embroidered with dark green flowers. The kimono went down to her ankles but had two slits up the side of her legs up to mid-thigh for mobility, a dark green obi was wrapped around her slim waist and a ruby colored sash was wrapped around the obi. Gingira's hair was a deep auburn and the bottom third of it was silver. (A/N: it's the same silver as inu's hair and sess's hair ^_~) Her hair was divided into an upper layer and a lower layer. The upper layer was tied into a loose braided bun on the back of her head with a few loose tendrils of her deep auburn hair framing her face and the lower layer flowed freely down to her waist. Gingira's deep green eyes danced with excitement and her long fluffy tail swished from side to side. (A/N: her tail is like her hair, deep auburn with a silver tip) 'Perhaps if everything goes well, Inuyasha might even choose me as his mate!' she thought happily to herself.

She was snapped out of her thoughts by Sesshoumaru's deep monotone voice. "Where are the remaining two shards you were to have collected?"

Gingira reached into a small velvet green pouch from her forest green obi and pulled out the two glowing slivers of jewel.

"Very well. You know what to do?"

"Hai, I am to use kitsune magic on these shards of the Shikon no Tama to erase Inuyasha's memory of the human bitch by infusing the shards into him. Then I will take on the form of the bitch and pretend to be killed by you," Gingira answered bowing again.

"Good. Now, what do you request for payment?" Sesshoumaru inquired curtly.

Gingira's rosy lips curled into a smile and her emerald eyes met dark gold ones. "I ask for permission to be Inuyasha-sama's mate if he chooses me."

Sesshoumaru was slightly surprised by her bold wish. His eyes narrowed and he quickly looked her over. After a few moments he spoke, "Hai, if he so chooses by his own will and not because of some kitsune spell."

Gingira was more than delighted with this answer. "Doumo arigatou, Sesshoumaru-sama. But before I leave, I have but one question to ask of you."

She waited, but when Sesshoumaru made no move to reply, she continued. "It is said that you and Inuyasha-sama are not on friendly terms. Why would you go to so much trouble for him?"

Sesshoumaru was silent for a few moments before deciding to answer. "Simple, despite the fact that he is a hanyou, he is still my younger brother and in my charge. I no longer need the tetsusaiga so I no longer hold a grudge against him. Besides, it would stain the family name for him to die over a lowly human wench."

Gingira looked at him carefully for a moment. 'So he does care a bit for his brother, hn, I guess the rumors aren't that true after all.' She thought to herself, nodding. "I'll be on my way now." With a final bow, she disappeared.

~*~*~*END OF FLASHBACK*~*~*~ (AUTHOR'S POV)

'Hn, that kitsune would have been a good match for Inuyasha. She was beautiful and quick-witted. Gingira was also sly, but what kitsune wasn't, ne? She would have been much better for Inuyasha than his original bitch. What was her name? Kagome?

It was disgraceful to his family name for Inuyasha to be such a mess over a filthy human wench. And how dare that bitch do that to him? She had seemed decent enough at the beginning, but how dare she torture Inuyasha so? Inuyasha was more depressed then anything I had ever seen, all because of that human wench. He truly should have learned from that first miko. Wasn't this new girl that miko's reincarnation or something?

Hn, Inuyasha that fool, he should have mated with the kitsune, she was a full youkai herself and was willing to lower herself to mate with a filthy hanyou. He should have been grateful. What did happen to the kitsune anyways? Oh well, it doesn't matter anymore; she got the job done and that is all that had mattered. But I had not been anticipating the return of the wench. But Inuyasha's memory was erased of her, perhaps he wouldn't remember. Kitsune spells are incredibly difficult to undo or break, especially if it was done by a gingitsune, the human, however, was supposedly a powerful miko. But if the spell was somehow completely broken, it would be an understatement to say that I would be upset. I had spent much time and effort searching out the remaining shards and gingitsunes are very rare and hard to find.'

"Sesshoumaru-sama!" croaked Jaken, successfully pulling Sesshoumaru out of his thoughts. "Sesshoumaru-sama! I-"

"Sesshoumaru-sama!!" called Rin, interrupting Jaken. "Rin just wanted to play with Jaken-chan!! See?" she chirped, holding up a small wreath of flowers. "Rin wants to make Jaken-chan pretty! And the flowers will make him smell better, too!!" Rin tugged on my long pelt and cupped one hand against one side of her mouth, as if trying to tell me something she didn't want Jaken to hear. "Rin doesn't think Jaken-chan takes baths."

"You stupid girl, how many times have I told you, you are to refer to me as Jaken-SAMA, not CHAN! Get it straight! We are NOT by any means friends and I don't need those nasty rings of flowers. And for your information," Jaken straightened himself up and looked up haughtily at Rin," I smell fine, and I smell better than you any day."

"W-we're not friends??? But Rin thought we were!" tears began to form in the corners of her eyes. Jaken knew all too well what would happen if the girl cried and Jaken was not very fond of pain.

"A-ah, what I meant was, uh, haha, it was a joke you see! I was just joking, of course we're friends! Now stop that, otherwise Sesshoumaru-sama will be upset with me!!!" Jaken exclaimed.

"YAY!!" cheered Rin as she began putting the wreath of flowers around Jaken's head and staff. "Sesshoumaru-sama! You would most certainly not allow that human filth to cover me in those disgusting flowers!!" he begged, but when receiving no answer.

Sesshoumaru merely glanced at Jaken's pleading face before turning around. "Rin, while you are working on improving Jaken, you might as well give him a bath when we return to my home."

Rin's face lit up and began chattering on about what kind of flower scented soap she should have made for Jaken as Jaken just stuttered in shock at what Sesshoumaru had just requested.

"I DON'T SMELL BAD!!!" cried Jaken as Rin dragged him by the wreath of purple flowers around his neck towards Sesshoumaru's castle.
