Well, people here is the real chapter 5 as I posted an AN before this chappie. Anyway, to those of you reviewed, thank you. To whoever asked whether I would do a Goku/Kagome fic, well I was already thinking of doing one. But I'm going to wait for awhile at least until I get through the majority of my fics because I am working on four at the same time. But if you have any ideas you can email me and send them to me and I might consider starting one sooner. But to everyone else, thanks for reviewing. Enjoy!
Chapter 5
The Deadly Dance
Gohan woke up that morning flinging the blankets out of the way. His heart racing with the fear of his nightmare kept beating, assuring him that he was still alive. Gohan drew in quick short gasps as he tried to think back on his strange nightmare. They were fighting someone, Mazoku he decided. They were having such trouble beating him. Everyone was there, even Kagome and her two mates. They were all fighting Mazoku at one point and then the scene had shifted and something had gone horribly wrong. Everyone was suddenly dead and he'd been left alive to face his impending doom alone. He'd watched as the Mazoku began making his evr so slow approach, drawing out the end slowly, causing Gohan such anxiousness to get it over with and end his suffering. And just as his enemy went in for the final blow Gohan coughed...only to awaken, realizing it had all been just a dream. After a minute Gohan began to panic. Where was he?
Oh, yeah, Gohan glanced around. He'd forgotten that he wasn't at home sleeping in his nice comfortable bed. He was here, in the past, at a time when Youkai roamed the earth. Gohan slowly sat up, brushing the cooling sweat away from his brow, and bending over his knees to calm his racing heart. After a few minutes of holding his head in his hands, Gohan finally allowed himself to relax. It was only a dream. He lay back down noticing it was still quite early and then after a few moments of restless yawning and stretching, he decided he would just get up, perhaps wake Vegeta or his father for an early morning spar.
Gohan dressed in the clothes he'd received last night, consisting of the green fighting Kimono and proceded out his bedroom door. Stepping out into the hall, Gohan used his Saiyan hearing to listen for any signs of movement or breathing. After a moment he realized he couldn't hear his father or Vegeta's breathing, indicating that they were already up. Raising his ki, Gohan closed his eyes and quickly caught the signals of both full saiyans.
There, he thought. Gohan continued to weave his way throughout the halls and through many doorways until the scent ended and he faintly heard the sound of metal hitting metal. Curious, he followed the sounds until he reached a large brass door, cracked open slightly indicating that there were already people inside. Hoping that nothing serious was taking place he ran through only to find his father and Vegeta staring at something with intense eyes. Gohan looked around noticing for the first time that this room appeared to be a very large dojo. The walls were literally covered in weapons of all shapes and sizes.
"Hey, dad," he called out a greeting. Goku barely glanced at his son, his attention too caught up in whatever it was that had caught his attention.
"Ssh, quiet boy," Vegeta demanded.
He joined both fighters and let his eyes follow their intense fixations. What he found was both awing and beautiful. There in the middle of the room were two figures who appeared to be circling around each other. Both were carrying two silver swords which they used to block and thrust at each other in a seemingly exotic display of sparring. Narrowing his eyes, Gohan tried to visualize whoe the talented fighters were before realizing they were Kagome and Yoko.
Gohan watched mesmerized at how different their fighting style was from anything he'd ever seen before. Their swords clanked heavily as the touched and twirled and ducked and blocked. Their arms and legs and bodies moving a semi-erotic display that left him feeling slightly envious at how talented they both were. Oh sure Gohan had learned all sorts of fighting styles from his dad and friends, as well as how to use a sword when he was younger.
But this, this beautiful display of power and speed, was so different from anything he'd come across before. Instead of using brawn and ki to spar, these two used brains and stealth and swiftness to attack and defend.
They were both equipped with swords and seemed to be almost dancing around each other in a fluid manner. There were no words to describe how flawless and beautiful their art was and Gohan could only stare and drop his jaw.
"How long have they been at this?" Gohan whispered once he reached his father.
"They've been at it for awhile, Gohan. Vegeta and I got up and hour ago to get in some training and found them in here already," Goku replied in the same tone. "But look at how flawless they look, almost as if floating on air. I had no idea Kagome could fight this well."
And indeed both demons continued to spar and attack, whether or not they noticed their snoopers, they didn't care. They continued to swoop and circle and dodge and defend, all the while keeping the same pace and graceful movements. They continued to watch as Yoko made to attack her and she dodged swiping at him with her sword and knocking Yoko's away. They watched in awe as the youkai merely smirked at his mate calmly before reaching into his hair for something.
They all saw Kagome smirk back cockily rolling her blade once or twice in her hand to get a better grip. "You think you've defeated me, mate," the heard Kurama speak softly in his oh so seductive voice. He began walking towards her as she stood her ground. Reaching out he lazily trailed a hand along the lines of her face, knowing that her Saiyan friends were watching.
"I indicated no such thing," she taunted, tilting her head into the embrace before placing her hands on his chest as he now stood two feet away from each other. "However, if you wish to admit defeat-" She was stopped when Yoko pulled out his secret weapon. The one, the only... "ROSE WHIP!" he cried backing away and slashing at his mate while she dodged.
"A-A rose?" Vegeta asked shocked.
"He used a rose?" Gohan asked in bewildermeant.
"But how?" Goku asked scratching his head in the 'son' manner.
"Yes," a voice answered scaring the daylights out of them. Well, not really scaring them, just startling them a bit.
They glanced up to spot Lord Sesshomaru sitting above the rafters, his eyes trained on his mates as he watched them spar. He jumped down and nodded in greeting to his three guests. "What you saw there was just Yoko's powers coming into play."
"His powers? What do you mean, Lord Sesshomaru?" Gohan asked curiously, still watching the spar. He almost chuckled as Kagome managed to pin her mate against a wall. Yoko used this opportunity to kiss his mate, before shoving her back and once again attacking with his whip.
Sesshomaru chuckled, eliciting a couple surprised gasps from the Saiyans that he actually showed some emotion. "Every youkai has a certain power, whatever breed they are. Yoko is a silver kitsune, very rare and very deadly," the lord explained seriously, keeping his eyes trained to Kagome. "His power is mainly dealing with plants. Using his energy he can create and grow any plant from any seed to suit his need in battle."
"What about Kagome?" Goku asked. He really wanted to know how strong she was. "Can she use plants too?"
Goku, Gohan, and even Vegeta looked to Sesshomaru for his response. But he merely nodded his head towards the fight, smirking a bit as he watched his ningen-looking mate. "Just wait till she transforms." Before anyone else could blink, Sesshomaru was gone and moved in a blur to double team his mate.
"Oh, no, is he really going to attack her while she's fighting Yoko?" Gohan gasped worried. They watched in shock as Kagome ducked from a blow that Yoko sent her way with his leg, and rolled to the side spinning around and transforming into her kitsune form all in one move. They continued to watch as she effortlessly caught Sesshomaru's arm from behind and through him into Yoko. The two went tumbling into the wall before standing up again.
Kagome stood there looking calm and deadly and poised as she stared tauntingly at her mates. Yoko and Sesshomaru recovered quickly and rushed her both at the same time, while she stood there calmly. At the last second she drew a crystal rose like Yoko's only it was pure crystal and see through. "Crystal Rose," (I know dumb name, but hey it fits) she cried before she whipped it out, as she swung it to meet with Yoko's own whip. The two whips quickly became entwined and Kagome used that to her advantage by pulling Yoko's whip right out of his hands, effectively disarming him for the second time. Seeing as how Yoko could no longer defend his self he left the fight as Sesshomaru and Kagome continued to circle each other.
Yoko, catching sight of the three guests, sauntered over to them. "Hello, I don't believe we ever really did talk much last night," he said, his voice still as husky and low as ever. "As Kagome introduced me last night I am her mate, Yoko Kurama." His voice sent shivers down their spines as he approached them. They couldn't help it, he sounded very alluring. (No they are not gay in the least. Wouldn't you feel that way if he talked to you that way?)
Taking the time to fully study him they finally got a full glimpse of his looks. He was tall and muscular with silver hair and molten gold eyes. He wore a simple, yet elegant white kimono that was ripped slightly in the chest area from where Kagome had slashed at him with her sword. They also noticed that like Kagome he had silver fox ears and seven tails. Curious as to why he had more than one tail, Gohan decided to ask.
"Ne, Yoko-sama, why do you and Kagome have so many tails?" he asked. He stood stalk still as Yoko turned his head gracefully and stared at him before a smile began forming on his face.
"Why, Gohan, I had no idea you were looking at my and my mates...posteriors," he spoke using his sex appeal again. Gohan visibly blanked as Goku and Vegeta chuckled nervously. "I had no idea you were...that way." (No, Yoko, will not be gay. But just remember he is a kitsune and he enjoys messing with people and kitsunes do like pretty things. I think any one of the saiyans would be considered an attractive object.)
"Ano, I...uh, I didn't," he tried to form some logical sentence, when suddenly a body landed next to him from behind; it was Kagome. The others, besides Yoko, were surprised when she pressed herself to his back.
"Don't worry about him," she spoke in a soft husky whisper. "Yoko has a tendency to like...pretty things. And you Gohan would more than pique his interest." She felt him shiver and mentally smirked before winking at her mate. She stepped back from Gohan and went over to her mate, allowing him to draw her into the circle of his arms as he nuzzled into her neck.
She winked at the other two Saiyans who were quite shocked at her blatant display of feminity. "To answer your question, Gohan, tails to us kitsune youkai are a way of telling how powerful we are. The most tails we can have are 9 tails," she explained.
"So, you and Yoko-sama must be pretty powerful," Vegeta commented, eyeing the two cuddling demons.
"Yes, Yoko and I have 7 tails and are thus close to our peak."
"What about you, Lord Sesshomaru?" Vegeta asked. "How powerful are you?"
Sesshomaru stared at the Saiyan Prince, his poker face ever present before smirking. Without answering he left the dojo, sending a quick look to both mates to hurry it up. Both Kurama and Kagome had dissolved into giggles at the question, knowing how powerful the youkai lord was.
"What was that about?" Gohan asked while raising an eyebrow.
"Oh, it was nothing," Yoko said tiredly. "That was just Sesshou being an ass" Kagome hit him for that comment but nodded in agreement. "But answer me this? Do you guys really think he would be named the Lord of the West without having the power to back it up?"
"So, you're saying he is quite powerful," Goko supplied, as Kurama and Kagome exchanged amused glances.
"Yes, Goku, he's very powerful," Kagome answered. She shivered as Yoko began placing small kisses and licks on the back of her neck, indicating he wanted to go back to bed. The other's caught this shiver and immediately looked away, slightly embarrassed. For Goku it was just plain weird watching his childhood friend be felt up, even if he was one of her mates. Even Vegeta and Bulma weren't that bad.
"Hey, Kagome, I have a question," Goku said, interrupting Yoko who growled accusingly at Goku for ruining his fun.
Kagome turned shining eyes on her mate, before turning back to the three Saiyans. "Yes, Goku, what is it?"
"Well, I, was just wondering why you're so open the way you two are. I mean doesn't it bother you that other people are around you?"
Kagome shrugged. "We're kitsunes, it's instinctive. It's just how our kind acts when we're around each other. Youkai naturally feel no modesty, kitsunes especially, so no, it doesn't bother us. We love each other, why shouldn't we be able to show that in public? Kitsunes are a naturally seductive race, who thrive on power and sexuality. We're no different from any other kitsunes."
"Oh." Goku, Vegeta, and Gohan stood there digesting the information until Kagome announced she was going back to bed for a little while.
She was about to leave with Kurama, before Goku called her back once more. She glanced back with the up most patience, no matter how Kurama pleaded for her to come.
"Well, I just wanted to tell you how beautiful you guys looked while sparring earlier. It was very fascinating and I hope we can spar later," Goku said hurriedly noticing the death threats Kurama was sending him. Goko watched as Kagome turned to her mate before biting his shoulder in irritation, only causing him to be more turned on.
"Thank you, Goku, and yes I'd love to spar with you guys later," she answered, before Kurama literally dragged her from the room.
Blink Blink.
"Well, that sure was weird," Gohan commented after everyong recovered from the strange conversation. "Who's up for a spar?"
Well, there's my new chapter, what'd you guys think? Please please please read and review. So far I've only gotten minimal response from veiwers. I hope my stories don't suck. Oh, well for those of you who do like my story thanks for reviewing already. And the rating has been changed to R now, because I can assure you there will be more lemons in this story.
Sincerely,
Kura-kun's-lovr
