"The Silent Voice"
By Night Youkai
Chapter 10
Sasami sighed as she finished working on a painting for the day. Her visions had not been pleasant. Naraku's dark spirit seemed to loom over Inuyasha seeking vengeance. She feared for her youngest child, but knew as long as he had a strong heart he would always over come. She was glad Sesshomaru was training Kagome and her friend. When dark shadows like Naraku are near one cannot be too careful.
She chuckled to her self at the thought of Inuyasha and Miroku's fumbled attempts to wash, cook, clean and do the homework. Well Inuyasha was a great cook and a straight A student but washing and clean were not his strong suit. Miroku on the other hand was bad even worst. They both ended up shrinking their uniforms making a mess of the dojo during clean up and made the baths too hot. Thankfully the dinner and homework notes came out all right.
'I'm ready mother.' Sasami turned her wheel chair around to see her handsome young son Inuyasha stood in the doorway pulling at the bowtie of his tuxedo.
Sasami smiled. "Well don't you look Handsome? I wish I could be there when you pick up Kagome. I bet you'll be the cutest couple at the dance.
'Mother It's just a school dance, no biggy.' It was very big. Really big. He never went to school dances. Now in his senior year he was ask to go to one. His Insides felt like jelly.
"You're right. I'm just acting like a mother. I want you to have fun." She kept the all-knowing giggle to herself. Inuyasha gave his mother a quick kiss and headed out the door.
"Oh Sesshomaru Where are you going?" Sesshomaru entered the room sighing. It was hard to sneak out of this house.
"I have plans with Rin tonight. I'll be late mother no need to wait up."
"I see. Tonight's the night. It took you long enough." She smiled. It was also hard to keep a secret in a house full of physics.
"Well I just wanted to make sure Inuyasha was comfortable around her and vice versa." They may not have been close, but he loved his brother. He had watched their father try to break his spirit. He would not let that happen ever again.
"Inuyasha and Rin get along fine. And now both my children are happy." Sasami brushed away a tear. "You'd better hurry, don't want to keep her waiting." Sesshomaru gave a rare smile before h kissed her goodbye and left. 'All will be well.' She thought as she watched her boys leave for a night of memories.
*****
'What are you doing here?' asked Inuyasha when he spotted Miroku at Kagome's door.
"Sango asked me to meet her here. It would seem this is a double date."
'Miroku have you ever been to a dance.'
"Yes. With a date no. It shouldn't be that bad. Right?" Miroku replied as he knocked on the front door.
"Hello boys! Come on in. Ayeka's helping the girls get ready." Kagome's grandfather greeted them and showed them in. Just then Sota came running in with his best friend Shippo.
"Inuyasha! You're here!" Sota screamed as he jumped into his arms.
"Is it true you can talk with your mind?" asked Shippo as he wrapped around his leg.
"When are you going to teach me how to use a sword?" asked Sota.
"Cool I want to learn are you going to stay and help us build a fort?" Asked Shippo.
'Hey slow down I can't answer them all.'
"Cool! Come play with us." Shouted Shippo.
"Yeah Inuyasha! We're going to make smores and tell ghost stories." Exclaimed Sota.
"Sota! Shippo! Stop hanging on Inuyasha! He and Miroku are here to take Kagome and Sango to the dance." Scolded Ayeka. The boys whined as the climbed off of Inuyasha. "Sorry about that. The girls will be down in a moment." Ayeka said as she ushered the young boys out of the room.
"You seem to be very popular. And here I thought you were afraid to be around people." Miroku commented. He smiled as he watch the small boys retreat reluctantly to the kitchen.
'I don't know why, but they like me. They aren't freak by my powers. I thought they would throw me out and forbid me to see Kagome. When she told them about me; they were all so kind and understanding.' Here never thought he would ever friend acceptance let alone happiness in the smile of one special girl.
"Inuyasha, not everyone is like your father. This family likes you for you and the fact you make Kagome happy." He knew his friend too well. When it can to joy in life Miroku knew Inuyasha was skipped in line. He hated to watch Inuyasha push himself try to get the love he deserved but never got. See him so happy Miroku couldn't' help but smile and be happy for his friend.
"Inuyasha are you ready to go?" Miroku and Inuyasha turned toward the staircase. They both felt weak in the knees. Kagome was wearing a long slivery white gown with thin little straps and white silk wrap around he shoulders. The sides of her hair were pinned back by a pearl comb. Tiny pearl earrings hung from her ears giving attention to her very slender neck. Sango was wearing a long dark purple gown with sequences that shimmered in the light. The dress connected at the left shoulder leaving her right shoulder bear. Her hair was up in a mass of curls and she had a dark purple silk wrap around her shoulders.
'Kagome. I.'
"Sango. you.' both boys had trouble forming a single thought or sentence.
'Kagome. you are more lovely than a dream. You are my heart's dream come true.' She had a tear in her eye from all the love she had for him and to know that thought was only for her to hear.
"Sango, You look like an amazing orchid blooming in the moonlight. I do not deserve such a treasure." Sango's eyes were misty. No one had ever said stuff like that to her before.
"Miroku you look quite handsome tonight. She said as she kissed him on the cheek. Kagome didn't have the words to express what she felt. She just went up to Inuyasha and kissed him. Inyasha could hear a soft gentle purr coming from Kagome as she kissed him. She ended the kiss and smiled. 'Ready?'
'Ready to what?' he was still dazed from her sweet kiss.
"To go. Mom wants to take some pictures of us first then we'll go." She giggled.
'Anything for you.' He smiled. Feeling like the happiest man alive.
*****
"Hi Sesshomaru come on in. I'm almost ready. You're early." Rin answered the door to greet him. She was nervous. They just going to maybe dinner and the movies, but something felt different tonight like magic in the air. It was a silly thought. She dismissed the thought as she got her sweater and purse.
"So Rin where would you like to go tonight?" asked Sesshomaru once they were in the car.
"I'm not sure it's such a beautiful night; everything looks like fun." They drove into the hills till the came to a spot close to the top, over looking the city. The lights twinkled as if the were stars. "This is beautiful Sesshomaru!" Rin exclaimed as she got out of the car. The moonlight played in her short brown hair and stars seem to twinkle in her soft brown eyes. The moment would never be more perfect. Sesshomaru got out of the car and walked up to Rin.
'She is so beautiful' she turned to him and smiled. She was the only one who come warm his heart and make his soul smile. Sesshomaru took Rin in his arms and held her close.
"Rin I love you and I always will." He took a deep breath. He didn't think it would be this hard. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him close so they were Eye to eye.
"I love you too Sesshomaru." She whispered then kissed him. He felt himself melt in to the kiss. This was where he wanted to spend his life. Right here in her arms.
"Rin will you marry me?" the words just rushed out as soon as the kiss ended.
'Yes, tonight was definitely a night for magic.' she thought. "Oh yes! I thought you'd never ask." Then pulled him in for one long slow and tender kiss.
*****
Everything was perfect. Inuyasha held Kagome in his arms as they slowly danced to the music. The dance wasn't as frightening as he thought it would be. The ballroom of the Madison hotel was decorated in blue, white and sliver. The theme was 'A Winter Wonderland'. He thought Kagome looked like a snow angle, in her slivery-white gown. All she need was a set of wings. He glanced at Miroku and Sango dancing next to them. They seem to be in their own little world. He wondered if they were as happy as he was with Kagome. He held her a little closer as the song came to an end.
"Now Boys and Girls! It's time to announce your King and Queen for this Winter Wonderland Ball." Announced the DJ.
"Your king this evening is Inuyasha Inuhoushi! Who is al also the Champion the Martial Arts State Finals." The crowd roared and cheered with excitement. Inuyasha felt frozen stiff with fear as the spotlight shown down on him.
"His Queen for this magical night is Kagome Higurashi, who has this school master archer three years running. Come up here you two and take you crowns!" Kagome took Inyasha by the hand lead him to the stage, through the cheering crowd.
'Kagome what just happen?' she smiled as they were crowned.
'We were voted cutest couple.'
"Now the King will take his lovely Queen for their moonlight dance." Inuyasha was really nervous now.
'They're all staring at us.' Kagome smiled as they made their way to the center of the dance floor.
'Don't worry so much.' Kagome slipped in to his arms. 'I love you Inuyasha. Nothing can spoil this moment' He held her close as the music started the song was 'Have you ever really loved a woman?' by Bryan Adams. They dance as one, as the music flowed. It felt like they were the only ones there. Yes nothing could spoil this night.
*****
"Say Rin do you feel like crashing a school dance?" Sesshomaru asked they drove down from the hills.
"What?" giggled Rin.
"Inuyasha's school is having their winter formal over at the Madison hotel. Why don't we go over there and tell them the good news?"
"Alight! That sounds like fun." Rin was so happy; she could only imagine how happy Sesshomaru was. He never was one to show his feelings, but she could feel them. Seeing Inuyasha to share his happiness was a good start. They drove down toward the hotel with the roof of the corvette. The night was too beautiful to have it up. They were almost there so Sesshomaru started to apply the brake. They weren't slowing down. The brakes were out and they seem to be gaining speed.
"Rin something is wrong. The car won't stop. Listen carefully, I want you to unbuckle your seatbelt and hold on to me." Rin was scared, but she trusted him and did as he asked.
*****
A flash ran through Inuyasha's mind. His body went stiff and his blood ran cold. Kagome became scared from the look in his eye.
"Inuyasha what's wrong?"
'Sesshomaru is in the danger. My brother is close by.' He grabbed Kagome by the hand and started to run for the exit. That's when they heard the loud Crash. 'SESSHOMARU!!' Inuyasha made it outside in time to see his brother's car blow up.
"KA-BOOM!!"
*****
Inuyasha: Yay! He's gone! Fluffy is gone!
N Y: -_-
Inyasha: *dances around*
Sesshomaru: I'm not dead
Inuyasha: O_O
Sesshomaru: Since the Night does not own me the Youkai can't really kill me.
Inuyasha: * glares at author* Is that true?
N Y: Yup! I don't. So I can't. So you wish, but won't happen.
Sesshomaru: *smirk * See little brother you can't kill the Great Almighty Lord of the Western Lands.
N Y: * sweat drop* Well thanks to all of those who reviewed.
Inuyasha: Did they say anything about me? *Looks over Nights shoulder. *
N Y: Yes now go away! Please keep reviewing.
Inyasha: * Tries to read reviews * What did they say?
N Y: Kagome!
Kagome: *comes in the room. * SIT!
Inuyasha: Oof!
N Y: Thanks
Kagome: No problem. Come on Inuyasha lets leave the nice Youkai alone. *Drags him out of room. *
N Y: There the pest is gone.
From down stairs: I heard that!
N Y: -_-' Any way thank you for the reviews. I will be posting my new story 'Battle against the dark Hearts' this week, but be warned the chapters will be posted maybe a week or more apart. See you when the sun goes down!
