Chapter 2: I'm Going WHERE?
"So…what may I ask, is the nature of your visit King Inutaisho?" Lord Higurashi asked the King as he lead him and his son down the ornate hallways.
"Ah… I was waiting for that question." Lord Inutaisho said with a twinkle in his eyes. "My son, as you know, is the Heir to the throne. He will need a mate soon, but not yet. I think that it would be good for him to get to know his bride before anything is decided." King Inutaisho looked at Lord Higurashi to make sure he was processing everything.
"Ah…sounds like a fool-proof plan." Lord Higurashi thought after a slight pause.
"Yes…yet…there is more. I plan on bringing them to the castle, training them to help defend the lands, and teaching them so that they know what is going on around them. We wouldn't want some baka ruling the West would we?"
"Ah…no of course not King Inutaisho…yet…a female? Surely you don't think that they would be able to rule? Some are so fragile, even being youkai."
"Of course not! Take my wife for example. She can wield a sword, just as expertly as I! And she rule in my place just as well."
Lord Higurashi smiled and nodded his head.
"So…are you telling me that, you would like to bring my Kagome to your court?"
"Hai."
"It would be and honor to have my daughter presented in your court!"
"Perfect!"
Sesshoumaru sighed. Yet another girl was being brought to the castle. He didn't know if he could take it. There was just so many of them. And all of them were so…annoying. Their voices…no wonder their parents had sent them away. It was a wonder they didn't make themselves deaf. Yet, the last girl, Kikyo was her name. She seemed different, more refined. He sighed wearily, he just wanted to relax. So wrapped up in his own thoughts, that he didn't notice the older men had stopped talking.
"Son, are you well?"
Sesshoumaru looked at his father with a blank face.
"Must have been the journey, 21 days, none stop, even youkai need a break sometimes especially the young ones. Not yet built up to last."
Sesshoumaru rolled his eyes.
*********************
Kagome walked towards the hot springs with Queen Sakura following her. She nervously fidgeted with the long silk sleeves of her kimono, and glanced back at the Queen.
"How old are you Kagome?" The Queen asked, trying to lessen the girls nervousness. She looked at her aura, which was now yellow with nervousness.
"112." Kagome replied. She remembered Kaede first coming to her when she was 52 years old, still young in youkai years. The Queen smiled at the young girl.
"Do you know why we are here Kagome?"
"No, Queen Sakura I do not."
"We are here to bring you back to the castle with us. Sesshoumaru will need a mate soon."
Kagome tripped and grabbed a vase in her attempt to stop herself from falling over. The Queen sweat dropped as the vase broke and Kagome fell with it. Kagome lay on the floor looking up. Did I just hear Sesshoumaru, and mate in the SAME SENTENCE?? Kagome, remembering that she was in the presence of a Queen, jumped up and bowed.
"Gomen…but…you er shocked me. What did you mean…Sesshoumaru will need a mate soon?" Kagome said, now walking backwards while bowing.
"Oh just what I said! Sesshoumaru needs a mate, so we have decided to gather all the noble ladies, and let him choose!" The Queen said with a slight twinkle in her eye. Kagome's aura had just turned from the purple of nervousness, to yellow of surprise, and orange of embarrassment.
"Oh look! Here's the hot springs!" Kagome sweat dropped and fell to the floor. The Queen stepped past her and rushed into the hot springs.
