Well, I got to thinking last night about the chapter that I had just put up. I would have liked it if I had out more than just what her dress looked like and go on ahead and started on the ball part. But I just couldn't think of a darn stupid thing to put and I felt really bad. So I decided to update early J
Disclaimer: You guys are stupid if you really think that I DON'T own Inuyasha.Lol J/k again
Sesshomaru, Inuyasha, and the king stepped out of the flying royal carriage and onto the platform that stuck out from the royal tree. A young servant girl with chin length brown hair and brown eyes walked up to them and bowed. Inuyasha liked what he saw.
"Hello your majesties, I will be your personal servant for your stay here. My name is Pin. Now if you will please follow me I will show you to your sleeping quarters to prepare yourselves for the ball tonight. There you will meet the king and queen."
Inuyasha stepped in front of Sesshomaru and his father and tried to start some form of small talk with her. It wasn't working and just earned a bored look instead of some flirting.
"Sesshomaru, walk with me please. I have something to discuss with you." The king stated as he walked rather slowly with his hands behind his back.
"Of course father what is it that you wanted to discuss?" Sesshomaru said as he mimicked his father in the way he was walking.
"Tonight I want you to meet the eldest daughter of the king and queen and see what you think of her. I would like to form an alliance with the East, but, when I suggested it to them they said that it would be their honor. But, You will have to marry one of their daughters. They suggest the eldest one." The king looked at his son from the corner of his eyes to see what his expression was. It was emotionless as always but you could tell that he was thinking.
"Is this alliance absolutely necessary for our lands father?"
"Yes, Sesshomaru. We will need all the help that we can get. There is a big war that is about to happen and I don't want to risk our downfall. We need this alliance Sesshomaru. I am not forcing you into marriage but I would like you to look into it. You will be sleeping in the room next to Kikyo, the eldest daughter tonight. Then tomorrow night you will be sleeping in the room next to the youngest daughter, Kagome."
Sesshomaru did not like this idea one bit because he did not prefer women. But, he would rather marry a whore than see his lands be defeated.
"Alright father, I don't like this idea but it is for the better of our lands and I will do anything to protect them. But, Why did they suggest Kikyo? What's wrong with Kagome?"
"Well, Sako and Migo didn't really say much about her, they mostly rambled on about Kikyo. But what I understand is that her features are so screwed up that they were forced to keep a veil over her face so she wouldn't scare anybody. I am not sure if that is true or not but If her own parents are willing to do that then I guess it is. But don't worry, I am sure that you will get along just fine with Kikyo my son." The king patted his son on his back and they both continued to follow Pin to their rooms to prepare for tonight.
Kagome and Sango were walking as fast as they could because they were already late and they would probably be the last ones there. Somehow, though neither of them knows how, They had gotten lost. Even though they had both lived in the castle their entire lives. They got a few stares from people as they passed by them rather quickly. But everyone had noticed the silver veil and knew it was the princess. They were amazed at how her body looked but they were still wondering what her face was like. They, in a way pitied her.
If only they knew.
They turned the last corner and were facing two giant wooden doors. Guards were standing on either side of the door waiting for anyone else who was coming. When they saw the princess and Sango they immediately started drooling at Kagome. Under her veil she blushed and proceeded to cover up her leg and blush under her veil. Sango saw this and was getting angry.
"HELLO? Will you suck your eyes back into your head and open the stupid door? We are already late enough! And stop staring!"
They nodded their heads and swiftly opened the double doors and the girls walked into the ballroom.
AT the opposite end of the hall the king and queen of the east were talking to the king of the West about the alliance. Sesshomaru was talking with Kikyo. Well, Actually Kikyo was talking with Sesshomaru about stuff he didn't have a care in the world about. Kikyo was wearing a very slinky mini dress that when to about half her thigh and was flowy and strapless. Sesshomaru was about to pass out with the smell of her very strong nasty smelling scented oil she was wearing. Inuyasha was harassing every pretty girl that was present in the ballroom and became quick friends with another pervert named Miroku. Together they were stirring up trouble with every girl left and right. When the doors opened though, They saw Kagome and Sango standing there blushing. The entire ball -room fell silent as they walked into the crowd and to the end of the hall the where the king and queen were. Kikyo was fuming when she saw all the guys google at Kagome's body and pushed her way through the crowd to where her parents were. Sako and Migo did not like the attention their daughter was getting so they motioned for everyone to go back to what they were doing. When Kagome and Sango had reached their destination, they bowed. The kings and queen nodded their heads and they stood up. Kikyo marched up to Kagome and grabbed her arm forcefully turning her to face her.
"What are you wearing? Mother? You actually let her wear this?" Kagome wrenched her arm from Kikyo and glared at her.
"Of course she did, or I wouldn't be wearing it now would I?"
"Mother? How could you have her wear this?"
"I didn't Kikyo now calm down. This isn't my doing. This is not the dress that I picked out for her to wear."
As this discussion was going on. Sesshomaru was making his way up to where his father was to get a closer look at this other princess.
"I chose it. You look great Kagome." Said Sako. Kagome gasped and looked at her father in surprise and smiled. He was smiling with a glint in his eye and looked at his wife.
"But Sako, why?"
"Yes father, why? Why would you let this ugly beast wear something like that?"
At that little comment Sango had had enough. She stepped in front of Kagome and glared at Kikyo.
"Listen Kikyo, I am sick of you and how you treat Kagome. You know damn well that she is 100 times prettier than you are and you are jealous. So just get over it and admit that she looks great and a hell of a lot better than you ever would."
Kikyo gasped and slapped Sango in the face and stomped away like a little two-year-old.
Migo was looking at her husband for an explanation.
"I am sick and tired of us always hiding Kagome's beauty. I will allow you to keep the veil on her but I want her to wear better clothing than the stuff you pick out." He stated challenging his wife.
Kagome had always liked her father the best because he wasn't nearly as strict hiding her away than her mother was. She smiled warmly at her father and leaned over and gave him a hug. He hugged her back and smiled.
"I love you Kagome."
"I love you to father."
Migo didn't say anything but she did sit there with the worst face you have ever seen on anybody.
"FINE. But I will NOT allow that veil to come off is that understood? Now, Inugasho, about the alliance and the marriage of Sesshomaru and Kikyo."
Sesshomaru rolled his eyes. He had been listening up until now and decided that it was time that he did something else.
'I wonder what this Kagome is really like, I don't usually ask women to dance because I can't get close enough to them before I feel like passing out from their smell. But this girl has a sweet smell that I enjoy. I haven't danced in a while.'
Sesshomaru walked up to Kagome who was standing alone now because Sango had gone of to dance with some guy that had asked her. Kagome looked at him and gasped. He was gorgeous. Was this the prince? She looked from Inugasho to Sesshomaru and noticed the similarities between the two and concluded that he was. He held his hand out to her.
"Would you like to dance?"
She looked at his hand hesitantly.
