These characters aren't mine, sadly, and I make no profit from (insert story the particular fic of mine you are reading is based on here). I cry out to the stars, "If only, if only."
By the by, watch out, a few of the characters may be ooc. (out of character for those of you who don't know what that stands for.)
Author's Note: In this fic, Sesshomaru still has both his arms, and he has the ability to manipulate people's thoughts, a sort of mind control.

Tammy studied her reflection in Sesshomaru's mirror, wondering how she had acquired fox ears. With a sigh, she turned away and went to stare out the window at the setting sun, her thoughts echoing in her mind.
Sesshomaru's clothes are too big for me. He probably won't appreciate my borrowing them either. How did I get here? I fell out of the school's ceiling into Sesshomaru's bedroom. Who'd've thought? What about the others? How do I get back? What if I'm stuck here forever? How long will Sesshomaru be patient with me? If he finds out I was human before I came here, he'll kill me.
"My clothes do not suit you," Sesshomaru said from behind her. He was less than an inch away from her. Her heart began racing and it suddenly seemed impossible to breathe.
"I'm sorry. I couldn't find anything else to wear," Tammy replied, keeping her eyes focused on the world outside the window.
"Tomorrow, you will go to the village and obtain more fitting garments." It was a command, not a suggestion. "Jaken will accompany you to make sure no problems arise."
"If I go to the village, I should probably take a bath first," she commented.
"I'll have one drawn for you. First, I would like to invite you to dinner. I'd be honored if you would join me."
"Dinner sounds good, I'd be happy to," she replied.
Sesshomaru escorted her to the dining room, pulled her dinner chair out and seated her like a gentleman. There were many strange dishes on the table that she didn't recognize. Jaken was standing by the wall and Tammy figured he could tell her what they were eating.
"Jaken, what are all these dishes?" she asked.
"I'm so pleased you asked," Jaken said, coming over. "Over here we have pig's heart baked in the fluids of it's own spleen. Over there is deer's liver, and over there are cow's eyeballs, fried in lard. And"-
"Next time I ask you what we're eating," she interrupted, "remind me that I'd be happier not knowing. Now, is that chicken over there? If it isn't, I don't want to know what it is."
"It's chicken," he answered.
"Good. Can I have some?"
"Of course, M'Lady," he said, running to get the chicken. When Jaken set it before her, she could see it was still bloody and pink, which meant it was rare, and she preferred well-done. However, she didn't want to complain about everything on the table. While Jaken piled the repulsive chicken onto her plate, Tammy took a wary sip of her beverage. It took everything she had not to spit it back out. Finally, she managed to swallow.
"What am I drinking?" Tammy asked.
"I believe you would be happier not knowing."
"Whatever it is, it's cold and tastes disgusting. It might taste better if it was warm."
"I'll have it heated up right away," Jaken said, taking her goblet and running it into the kitchen.
Sesshomaru had been staring at her intently the entire time, and Tammy chose to now address that issue. It was best if Jaken wasn't there to explain Sesshomaru's actions; after all, Sesshomaru was a big boy and could speak for himself.
"Is there something wrong? Maybe something stuck between my teeth, some of my hair sticking up, or something like that?" Tammy asked.
"No," he replied.
"Well, then why are you staring at me?" He provided no answer to that question. "Did you perceive that it is a tad disconcerting to me that someone is scrutinizing me while I partake of an evening meal?" Once again, he supplied no answer. "Are you going to keep staring at me? Cuz it's tickin' me off! If you have something to say, just say it!"
Jaken came rushing back in with Tammy's drink. "Anything else, M'Lady?"
"Yeah. Do something about Sesshomaru. He's royally pissing me off!"
"I did not intend to offend you," Sesshomaru said quietly.
"Oh, now you'll talk to me?"
"I didn't mean for my silence to bother you."
"Well it did! I'll ask you one more time. Why were you staring at me?"
"I find your actions odd," Sesshomaru replied.
"What the hell does that mean?"
"Jaken prepared your favorite dishes and set them before you. However, you passed them up for chicken."
"Well, forgive me for liking chicken! And you know what? I'm gonna pass up the stickin' chicken too! If you want any, be my guest!" Tammy yelled, standing up and snatching her goblet from the table. She turned and headed for the door.
"My, my, someone has a temper," Sesshomaru remarked dryly.
"Shut up, bitch!" Tammy screamed, turning and throwing her goblet at him.
He dodged it with ease and advanced on her with unbelievable speed while the goblet shattered into smithereens on the floor. She jumped back against the wall and Sesshomaru was right behind her. He put his hand over her throat and pinned her to the wall, making it extremely hard to breathe. He pulled back his other hand, preparing to stab it through her heart.
"Perhaps I have been too kind," he said, thrusting his hand forward for the kill. Tammy astonished Sesshomaru and herself by catching his hand and holding it off without any apparent struggle. I'm stronger than Sesshomaru? But…that's not possible. Or is it? But why me? It doesn't make any sense.

Her confusion was written on her face. Sesshomaru could see in her eyes the questions of how she had done that. Behind all that was the most important thing he could use; her innocence. She was young in many ways and it would be no difficult task to manipulate her.
Fennec's innocence told him that she had no memory of her past deeds, and she had never known a man to desire her. Sesshomaru could easily play the mind-game of love and make this child feel like a woman. He would begin there.
"I see now that you are the only one who can help me," he lied.
"Help you do what?" she stammered uncertainly.
"You can help me get the Tetsusaiga," he said. Before she could answer him, he used a power of his that he rarely had before. He poured erroneous beliefs and evil thoughts into her mind, replacing her own thoughts on the subject with his. She would come up with her own justification for why Inuyasha did not deserve the Tetsusaiga. "Will you help me?"
"Yeah, I'll help. Inuyasha's being selfish. After all, brothers should share," Fennec said.
"We should consummate the deal," he told her, releasing her.
"How do we do that?" she asked, letting go of his hand.
He walked her to the bedroom. Once they were ensured privacy, he flung her onto the bed. He leapt after her and landed on top of her, his body slamming hers down into the soft mattress. He silenced her cry of pain by shoving his lips over hers. He removed her clothes while sliding his tongue around in her mouth.
Fennec had difficulty removing his clothes and got so frustrated with it that she ended up ripping his garments to shreds to get to his skin. Then she nibbled his ear while he took a taste of her breast. He placed himself between her legs and made the first entry. She groaned her pain and dug her nails into his back, drawing blood.

Inuyasha woke up because Myouga was sucking blood out of him. He squished Myouga before asking, "What do you want?"
"I have found Fennec, Lord Inuyasha. She is with Lord Sesshomaru," Myouga informed him.
"Well, that's just great," Inuyasha muttered.
"It gets worse. Fennec made a deal with your brother to help him take Tetsusaiga from you. They consummated the deal in the normal demon fashion."
"Ooohhh, what's that?" Arctic asked, leaning over Inuyasha's shoulder.
"It means they have, um…sealed the deal," Myouga replied.
"Oh, I get it. Tammy's finally getting some. That should make her happy. Though if she'd heard me say that, she'd act all angry and cuss and hit me," Arctic laughed.
"Keep it down, I'm trying to sleep," Korat mumbled.
"No sleeping," Arctic yelled, leaping over to Korat. She violently shook Korat until Korat had had enough. Korat slashed out with her claws. "Whoa! You didn't have to get grouchy," Arctic whined after dodging the blow.

"Damnit, I'm sore," Tammy muttered. The sun was rising outside the windows. "Sesshomaru?" She rolled over to face him, but found him gone. She hadn't really expected him to stay though. There was a rap on the door. "Come in."
"M'Lady," Jaken said from the doorway, "if you'll have breakfast now, we can head for the village within the hour."
"I'm too sore to go to the village," she whined.
"I could give you a massage," Jaken offered.
"I'm not that sore! Suddenly, I feel lots better! I hope you made a big breakfast. I'm starving," Tammy lied, creeped out by the idea of Jaken giving her a massage. "Leave the room, I have to get dressed." Jaken left and Tammy spent the next ten minutes trying to remember how to put Sesshomaru's clothes on.
