The Boy That Time Forgot
A fanfic by Fang of the Inugami
Chapter 3- Pretty Lady
"Inuyasha stop being such a little brat and come meet my friends." Kagome scolded the hanyou who, at the moment, was hiding behind a dumpster.
"I. Don'. WANNA!" Inuyasha annunciated, giving the air of someone speaking to an incredibly dim child.
"Why not?"
"Because."
"That's not an answer Inuyasha!" Kagome was at her wits end (A/N- Not that she had much wit to begin with) when she got an idea. "You're not scared are you?"
Inuyasha's eyes widened, and he growled. Kagome leapt back in surprise. "I am not afraid of your pathetic, worthless, human friends. Get that through your thick skull, bitch." (A/N- I know I got a specific request to turn down the swearing, and I'll try, but that needed to be there in my opinion.)
"Hey, you got something against humans?" (A/N- She reminds me of the theme song of this show I used to watch. The lyrics went something like'watch out for oblivious.' The show is 'Oblivious', ever seen it?)
Inuyasha looked at her, and Kagome could almost see sorrow behind those angry amber orbs. "Everything, Kagome, everything."
Kagome blinked. 'What was that about? I guess I'll have to wait until later, here come my friends.'
(Does anyone have the song 'Jajauma ni Sasenaide'? More commonly known as the Ranma ½ theme If you do, go find it, put it in your CPU/CD player and hit play before you read anymore. If you don't have it, no sweat.)
"Kagome, who's that!" Sango yelled, even though she was only a few feet from said girl. (A/N- YES! SANGO AND MIROKU WON THE VOTE ATTWO TO ZERO! YAY! BECAUSE REGARDLESS OF THE VOTES, THEY WERE GOING TO BE THERE ANYWAY! You'll just have to wait and see who else is there... BWAHAHAHA!)
"Yeah Kagome! Who's that!" Miroku yelled.
"AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEE!" Sango screeched, turning and smacking Miroku right in the cheek with a fluid grace that made one suspect this happened quite often.
"Aaaaah! Sango-chan!" Miroku said with an affectionate voice.
"SANGO-CHAN! WHO'S SANGO-CHAN MIROKU! TO YOU, I SHOULD BE SANGO-SAN!"
"Whatever you say, San-chan."
"ARGH!"
THWACK!
Miroku appeared to be knocked out, only to snap his head up, and gaze at Inuyasha in a way one can only describe as disturbing. He walked up to said hanyou and grabbed both of his hands in his.
"Pretty lady, would you be so kind as to bear my child?"
The world stood still.
Inuyasha eyes turned red.
Miroku looked shocked for a moment. "Ahh! So the pretty lady is a youkai! My apologies. Let me rephrase. Would you be my mate?"
Inuyasha's hair started flying around him.
Miroku looked stumped. 'Maybe if I...' He leaned forward and kissed Inuyasha's hands, which he still clasped in his own.
Purple stripes appeared on the enraged hanyou's cheeks, and Miroku was blown back about ten feet, landing on his back and sliding another five against the ground. Inuyasha hadn't moved a muscle.
The hanyou strode over to Miroku's resting place, a nearly tangible (and visible) rage swirling around him. Inuyasha lifted his foot backwards a little and then brought said appendage right into the bottom of Miroku's mouth, sending the boy flying at least five more feet.
"DO I LOOK LIKE A CHEAP WHORE TO YOU, BOY?"
"Wha...?" Miroku was shocked by the manly tones this female produced.
"I'M A MALE YOU DUMBASS!"
Miroku's face turned green, then faded to white. 'Oh shit...'
"BESIDES THAT, I HAVE TO BE AT LEAST SIX HUNDRED YEARS OLD BY NOW! ARE YOU SICK OR SOMETHING?"
"Suh... six huh... hundred?" Miroku started wiping his mouth against his sleeve with a vengeance.
"YEAH! I'M INUYASHA INUHIKO FROM THE SENGOKU JIDAI!"
Miroku, Sango, and Kagome's eyes all widened. "Inuyasha INUHIKO?"
"Yes! I'm Inuyasha Inuhiko, prince, actually lord by now, of the Western lands."
Miroku fell forward in a bow, "My apologies my lord. I did not know you still lived. Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Miroku Kazaana."
Inuyasha's eyes narrowed. "Did you say 'Kazaana'?"
Miroku looked up. "Yes I did sir."
Inuyasha smirked, then walked up to the bowing boy and proceeded to smack the shit out of him.
"Inu-Inuyasha!" Kagome stammered, and tried to rush forward to stop the hanyou from putting one of her classmates into a coma. She was stopped, however, by Sango placing an arm in front of her.
"Leave him be, Kagome. Miroku's had it coming for a while anyway since my beatings have less effect each time. Besides, look how happy he is."
Kagome looked and saw that Sango was correct, Inuyasha was happier than she had ever seen him.
Inuyasha stood up, towering over the beaten and moaning Miroku. "I've owed that to your family for over five hundred years!"
Miroku managed to squeak out, "What did the Kazaana's ever do to you?"
Inuyasha's eyebrow twitched. "This is the second time a Kazaana has mistaken me for a woman, and the last one escaped me while I was busy chasing one of those god forsaken kitsune's. Clever little shit had to take his appearance..."
Kagome and Sango burst out laughing, to be silenced by an enraged hanyou.
"Shut it..." he ground out.
"The second time? And you didn't eradicate the entire family after the first time?" Kagome was laughing her ass off.
"It was on my 'to do' list." Inuyasha grumbled. "Besides, I was stuck to a tree for five hundred years, inconsiderate wench. Did you forget already?"
Sango blinked. "I know that legend! A hanyou prince pissed of some psycho priestess and she shot him through the heart with a sealing arrow! I thought it was just a legend though!"
Inuyasha laughed coldly. "Far from it, demon slayer."
"How did you know!"
"I'd recognize your families scent anywhere! Tell me, do you happen to be a Taijiya?"
"What the...!"
"One of your ancestors helped me out once." Inuyasha's eyes had a wistful look, remembering things that were only legends by now.
'Poor Inuyasha. Everyone he knew is long gone.' Kagome looked pityingly at the hanyou before her.
The bell rang.
"AIIIE!"
Kagome was startled by the girlish scream that had escaped Inuyasha's throat. "What the hell was that?"
Inuyasha looked down at her from his perch at the top of the dumpster. Ignoring her question, heasked another."What was that noise?"
"It was a bell, Inuyasha."
"... oh."
"Let's get to class." Kagome started walking in the direction of the school.
"Yes, let's." Miroku started crawling after Kagome.
Sango just sighed and followed the other two.
"Rightie-o chaps! Let's get going! I come hence!" Inuyasha said with a mock British accent for some reason as he followed Kagome, Miroku, and Sango into the building.
(I was gonna' end it here, but then I was like 'nah, they deserve long chapters for putting up with me.' Thank my kind (total crap, you know) and loving (bullshit) heart for the extended chappie! Microsoft Word wanted to change 'chappie' to 'crappie' when I ran spell check. Strange.)
"TEACHER!" Kagome screeched as she stumbled into the classroom, "I BROUGHT A NEW STUDENT!"
"Calm down Higurashi-san," the teacher was mildly freaked, "and please bring in this new student."
Kagome sat down at her seat in the front of the classroom (A/N- Suck up) and called out "Inuyasha!"
The hanyou walked into the classroom, and the teacher let out a muffled moan.
"Oh great, not another demon! I can barely handle the class as it is!" The teacher mumbled.
"Well, that's not my fault, is it? You must be a pretty shitty teacher to be dominated by these weak demons! I bet I could subdue them with three words!"
The teacher didn't like this student's attitude, and wanted him to eat his boasts. "Fine. Give it a try. If you fail, you get detention."
Inuyasha jumped up onto the teacher's desk, right in front of the fan that was blowing air into the room. "I'm Inuyasha Inuhiko."
The eyes of the demons in the classroom widened as Inuyasha's scent flowed through the room. He smelled of forests, blood, power, ancient strength, and royalty. The adolescent demons fell forward into a bow.
Inuyasha jumped off of the desk and landed in front of the gasping teacher. "Put you jaw back on human slob." After a slight pause, he tipped his head to the side and asked,"So, do I win?"
The teacher nodded, eyes wide, "Please take your seat Inuhiko-San."
Inuyasha walked to the back of the classroom and took a seat.
The teacher walked up to the blackboard and wrote 'SENGOKU JIDAI' on the board. "Class, today we will begin our study on the Sengoku Jidai period of ancient Japan..." He was silenced by a LOUD groan coming from the back of the classroom, more specifically, Inuyasha's seat.
"Yes Inuhiko-San?"
"May I be exempted from all lessons concerning this subject?"
The teacher glared at the offending student. "And why should you be excused?"
"Because I lived through most of it?"
The teacher blinked. "That's not possible."
Inuyasha laughed, "Yes it is you old bat!"
"Impossible. If what you claim is true, then you would be the Inuyasha Inuhiko, Lord of the Western lands, and not some pathetic hanyou child with a name that's too big for him."
The desk in front of Inuyasha cracked in half, the hanyou's eyes blazing red for the second time that day. "I am the Inuyasha Inuhiko."
"Lies!" The teacher shrieked, pointing an accusing finger at the enraged half demon.
Inuyasha lifted a hand with abnormally long claws, then gasped and hunched down on the floor grabbing his head and muttering, "Don't lose control, don't lose control, don't lose control..."
In his mind he heard a voice. A cold terrible voice that could only belong to a ruthless killer. "My dear Inuyasha, how could you lose something you never had?"
He answered the voice in his mind so as not to gain the suspicion of his classmates, the human ones at least. All demons present recognized what was happening and were slowly edging towards the doors and windows. "I have control! I've always had control over you!"
(from here on out, Inuyasha is talking to himself inside his mind so that no one can hear him, ok?)
The voice laughed, the voice that belonged to his demon half. "Then how come I easily convinced you to kill your mother, father, bother, and anyone you crossed paths with days after?"
"Because I was weak then. I'm strong now."
"Strong as the humans that surround you. You could kill them so easily you know, just let me out..."
"Never again. I'm no longer a beast."
"Your lies fall on deaf ears. I can see it, your true self, where your dark heart rules, a despicable beast."
"You are the dark heart and despicable beast! NEVER AGAIN WILL I LET YOU FREE!"
"The time will come, Inuyasha, where you will. Once that happens, I'll never let you gain control ever again. Enjoy your freedom while it last's, half breed, because it is short lived."
Inuyasha felt his mind clear, and he stood up, gazing at the human students who were staring at him and the demons who were slowly edging back to their seats. "If you don't believe me," his voice was surprisinglycalm, "then allow me to prove it to you."
"If your really theInuyasha, show me the Tetsusaiga!" The teacher yelled, oblivious to the danger he had just escaped.
Inuyasha looked at Kagome, "May I return to the shrine to retrieve the Tetsusaiga?"
"Uh... sure."
"Arigato." Inuyasha bowed his head in thanks and proceeded to jump out of the classroom window and haul ass towards the Higurashi shrine.
A few minutes later Inuyasha entered the same way he had exited, and walked over to the teacher. He held out a katana that he had grasping in his right hand. "Here it is, the Tetsusaiga."
The teacher looked at the sheathed sword. "Well, pull it out boy! How can I tell if it's the Tetsusaiga if it's in there!"
Inuyasha pulled out the sword and held it before him.
The teacher laughed, gazing at the rusted and chipped katana. "That can't be Tetsusaiga! That couldn't even-"
Inuyasha cut the teacher off mid-sentence. "Cut paper, wet. I know, I said the same thing when I first saw it."
"But the Tetsusaiga is supposed to be the fang of the great lord Inutaisho!"
"And it is, observe." Inuyasha's youki seemed to concentrate around the sword, and before you could blink, with a burst of wind the dinky little katana became a gargantuan blade right before your very eyes. Inuyasha looked at the teacher with a 'told ya so' look.
The teacher fell to the floor in a bow. "The great lord Inuyasha Inuhiko has returned!"
"Glad to see you finally got your wits about you, old man!"
"My name is Myouga, my lord."
Inuyasha's face screwed up with what one could only guess was contained laughter. "Did you say Myouga?"
"Hai my lord."
Inuyasha couldn't contain his amusement anymore and he burst into uncontrollable laughter.
When he could finally get a hold of himself, he spoke with a smirk. "Seems I'm meeting reincarnations all over the place today!"
"Pardon my lord?"
"Myouga was the name of my former retainer."
Kagome, Sango, and Miroku all fell over. (A/N- ANIME STYLE!)
"Seems our little Inuyasha is having quite a day already." Sango mused, observing the hanyou pointing and laughing at the bowing teacher saying things like 'coward' and 'bloodsucker'.
Kagome put her face in her hands. "And it's only first period."
Ok, I know it's shorter than the last chapter (I think) but I also updated quicker! Right? Well, the important notes.
1) Inuyasha almost turned full demon because he didn't have Tetsusaiga with him, and the teacher was calling his 'lordship' into question in front of his 'subjects'. It was mostly instinct-based rage.
2) I'll try to have my updates quicker from now on, maybe one a week? At least, that's the goal, but if writers block rears its ugly head, they might come slower. I really enjoy writing this story so I hope you enjoy reading it .
QUOTE CONTEST!- If you can tell me where the following quote comes from and who said it, the next chapter will be dedicated to you! The Quote- I can see it, your true self, where your dark heart rules, a despicable beast. I LOOK FOWARD TO READING YOUR ANSWERS!
REVIEW RESPONSE TIME! YAY!
Ryu the Dragon Demon- I wouldn't say GENIUS. Maybe uncommonly intelligent? Thank you! Your compliments do not fall on deaf ears! It was YOUR review that made me start typing this chapter up! You and Inuyasha in the same head? Must be kinda cramped -.-' Happens to all of us though, right? I often have to beat my alternate personalities unconscious, so don't feel bad. I know you're not insane (edges away) just different... eheh. Hope you enjoyed the Sango and Miroku bits! They had a bit of a sugar high it seemed... (shakes head)
Ame-sama- Sango and Miroku was my original plan, but I wanted voter opinion. If there had been horrible objection to them, then it would the other way. You'll just have to see about Hojo. (If you don't like him, read my other story, I really squash him in it.) Thank you for sticking around even though you don't like the curse words. I tried this time, I really did, and I hope I did better. Let me know, please! I value you as a reader and I hope you don't feel ignored. Again, thanks for sticking around and I hope to see you next chapter!
Summoner of Suzaku- AWWW! You're just saying that because I know where you live and you know that I would beat the crap out of you if you flamed me! .' But you really thought it was awesome? THANKIES! Your story kicks major ass as well, and I just haven't gotten my lazy butt around to reviewing it yet. (Smacks self in head.) Thank you for reading! I know you don't like reading many Inuyasha fics, so the review is extra special! Anyway, wanna go to the mall this weekend? (I know you're probably like "What the hell? Just ask me like a normal person you freak!") WE MUST GO TO HOT TOPIC AND ROB THEM OF ALL THE ANIME T-SHIRTS! Plus I need a new pair of pants. (Now you're like "FREEEEEEAAAAAAKKKK!" aren't you?) Anyway, see you at school! (I HATE SCHOOL!)
