No Ordinary Princess
Chapter 5
Snoopy said: "Kagome? As in Princess Higurashi Kagome?!"
They got to the gate and Shippou was about to ring the bell, when Miroku shoved Kagome into his arms. He shuffled a bit and then hit a loose brick in the wall. He took it out and revealed a small key. Miroku smirked sneakily and opened a small door. He took Kagome from Shippou's arms and carried her into the Montalver's Courtyard. They walked for quite a while until they finally reached the front door. It was six in the morning and the house was bustling with servants already awake and getting breakfast ready for their masters. He lightly knocked on the door and tried the door knob to find it securely unlocked. How great of the servants! He walked through and ran as fast as possible, considering he had a girl in his arms, up the stairs and into the nearest vacant room. He threw her on the bed, not really caring anymore, and flopped down onto the floor.
"She is SOME girl."
"Stop it Miroku, you might eat your words in less than a minute."
"Why do you say that."
"Because. She looks like she could kill you right about now."
Miroku slowly turned around to find a very outraged female behind him. Shit…
He tried to move away from her but she had her fingers around his neck in a second. She strangled him while screaming,
"How DARE you throw me as if I was worth no more than the clothes you wear?!"
"I meant no harm lady, I was just tired. I DID carry you all the way from where you had your horse!"
"No you didn't," responded Shippou, anxiously waiting for the pummeling to start, "you carried her when we got off of the horses. Which just happened to be right in front of the castle…"
Kagome grinned. This guy was going to learn how to respect women! Throwing her so carelessly, she could've hit herself on the wooden stand right next to the bed! Then what? Would he notice? Would anybody?! She hit him on the had and he blacked out. She looked up when a lady started screaming about a monstrosity…
"How dare you hit a prince?! Royalty should be respected girl!"
She was rudely grabbed by the arm by said lady and she could feel the long nails biting into her flesh. She was seething with anger. She jerked herself away from the lady.
"Then you've got some nerve hurting a Higurashi!"
The lady turned around in a flash when she heard the name, and so did everybody else in the castle. Kagome was red in the face from all the anger and she held her head high.
"A simpleton like you shouldn't dare SPEAK the name of our long lost allies!"
"Look LADY I am a Higurashi and you're alliance is about to go down the drain because of your stupid accusations."
InuYasha walked in through the front door. Screw the job of the servants, he could open the goddamn door on his own, and he could announce himself too. He noticed that everybody was staring up at a girl in a shredded dress ((The ride and the fall were so harsh to the dress)). He walked through the crowd of onlookers. He couldn't exactly see the face of the girl in front of Queen Montalver, Miroku's mom, but he COULD see the queen's face. It was a priceless expression of shock. In full detail it was deathly pale. She wasn't moving at all, neither of them were. He could tell that the girl in front of him was pissed off, and the queen was shocked, mabey a little afraid.
The queen turned to look at InuYasha. InuYasha cocked his head to the side and shrugged. Then the girl turned around. What he saw left him standing still. Shit… The raven hair, the dark blue eyes, the attitude Miroku described… Could this be her? Could the girl in front of him be his wife? He nervously fiddled with his newly acquired necklace with a "K" hanging from it.
"Ka-."
"H-Higurashi K-Kagome?"
He turned to see the queen stuttering. When the girl turned around the lady stumbled back and InuYasha thought he saw her as being older… Mabey it was his eyes…
"Yes. I certainly don't like the welcome to the home of my father's allies. I thought that they would treat me much better than this. Especially after such a long time!"
Golden eyes… Where have I seen those eyes before? Suddenly she remembered what had slipped from her mind those couple of years. Her husband. The small boy that liked to watch her a lot while she picked flowers with Miroku. He watched her from high branches, behind bushes, anything he could find to hide in. His hair was silvery, he had doggie ears ((Heehee)), and he had the most beautiful golden eyes she had ever seen. Her parents married her off to the same guy, but she never got to meet him much. She only had a ring in a necklace around her neck…
Miroku appeared woozy behind the elder lady and ran up to Kagome bowing. Kagome could've sworn this guy wasn't normal at all…
"Please Kags don't be mad at me!"
Kagome caught on to their old game. When they were smaller they would always get into arguments and Miroku would get on his knees and beg. It was his only way of asking her to not pummel him with her small fist. She would always respond with a very sweet voice that would make him starry eyed.
"Miroku-kun, I would NEVER hurt you. But you did something VERY wrong. I'm afraid the frog will have to do," something she loved doing to Miroku… Once she caught a frog and caught Miroku trying to hit an iguana with a stick. Being the nature lover, she grabbed the helpless frog and dropped it down his shirt. Miroku jumped around screaming,
"Holy shit! Something slimy is licking my baaaack!"
Exactly what he was doing now. She laughed silently as they both remembered what had happened. Apparently so did the queen. She relaxed and calmly walked back into the room. Shippou was asleep on a chair, he had probably followed her for her safety. She smiled warmly as she put a blanket over him.
InuYasha couldn't move at all… Holy shit, I've got a feisty wife to deal with. Just in time. There's a ball announcing my engagement to somebody tomorrow! He managed to walk into the room after Miroku who was crying from the laughter.
"Kags that was cruel!"
"YOU we're being cruel to the helpless Iguana!"
"I was not!"
Kagome giggled softly and looked up to see the golden eyes. She shivered and looked down to find her dress in tatters… Practically nothing except her chemise.
"Um, Miroku…"
"Want me to leave?"
"Nope, I know you've seen me this way before, but I need something to change into…"
"I saw you this way before the overprotective guy, or after?"
"Both."
They laughed and Miroku opened a chest and pulled out clothing. He threw some at her and she threw some back. Miroku looked up and saw Kagome discard what was left of the dress she had been wearing. She met his eyes and he stood up from the chest and shut it.
"Helping hand?"
"How about a helping friend WITHOUT the hand?"
"Suits me Kags."
He walked over to her and dropped the dress on top of her. She wriggled into it, forgetting all about the blushing guy behind her. He was tightly holding the ring in his hand all the while the necklace tightly held onto his neck.
Kagome looked at the green dress that made her chest pop out, and made her curves stand out. She stared at Miroku's innocent face. He had done that on purpose.
"Hentai."
"Not for me, for him."
She looked at the other guy who had his eyes closed tightly. She had forgotten all about him… She walked up to him and looked at his clenched fist. She pried open his hand and looked at the ring. She yanked it and heard the snide remark that followed. She chose to ignore it… ((It was bitch…)) She grabbed her own ring and fit them together. She smiled and turned around to show them.
"I guess you know your wife's name NOW. Ne, InuYasha? InuYasha?"
InuYasha, the golden eyes, was on the floor with a stupefied grin on his face. My husband is a strange man isn't he?
"Hey Kags…"
"Yeah?"
"There's this problem. Everybody thought you were dead so InuYasha's mother is trying to marry him off tomorrow…"
"So?"
"You've got to save the poor guy! He can't marry Kikyou!"
"Kikyou? I lived with her! She's too sick to do anything!"
"Well, she certainly is trying to marry well into the highest social class isn't she?"
Kagome glared off at nothing in particular.
"Miroku, put my husband in a carriage and ship him off to his home. It's already late and his parents will be worried. We'll discuss all of this later."
"WHY THE HELL IS MY SON BEING SHIPPED TO ME IN A CARRIAGE HALF-DEAD?!"
. Mahahaha! Enjoyed? Press the sexy button down there. Come on! You know you want to! Next time... Engagement Ball my ass: Strapless dress… Mahahaha! The temptations… .
Snoopy sais: Ahem Kikyou can kiss my half demon ass cuz I ain't gonna marry her. My wife is back and I'd like to stay with her… Thank you."
