Okay! Sorry, but this is not the actual story! Really really sorry for not updating at a quicker paste. I just wanted to remind you all that ...the next chapter is a very important part of the story (maybe not that important) and that it might take me awhile to update because I have to think of some names (help would be nice...) and think of how the story is going to go ... (I know, INUYASHA burned down her village!). Clarification will be coming right up! OH! yeah.. I'll just add in that myBIRTHDAY is coming up! It's August 5th! Friday! I have very good happy power so I'll really try to update as soon as possible! Also, No Flames please... tips/advices are okay, but just don't go all out about how much you hate the story :( Don't worry, I'm not saying this because I got one. All my reviewers have been SO NICE! -----> I LOVE YOU ALL! (emotional girl you know)... Hehehe. Anyways I'm wasting time on this; I have to get writing! Bye
("...") CHAPTER CONBINED! ----------> ENJOY!
Author's notes: Alright! Chapter 7! I finally got the story going by making up some names and thinking up some names. I hope that this chapter can be much longer than the others... sorry, but the entire chapter is all history! Enjoy! (also: The two men below are both 25 years old)
Disclaimer: DO I HAVE TO REPEAT MYSELF! I DON'T OWN UGLY INUYASHA AND HIS GANG! Huff huff huff...(you know I was just lying about the ugly thing right? Drool)
Chapter five: The Takion Pirates...
"Inutaisho, I wish you wouldn't laugh about such matters! I am really serio..."
"Ha ha ha! I almost thought you were serious there for a minute Kingasa! Whew Don't scare me like that. I'm just doing my work when you come in and say such rubbish! If this is a joke, you sure got me. Who would' a thought...(pause)..... you're serious aren't you?"
Kingasa's sentence was cut off as the man named Inutaisho began to talk. Inutaisho had gotten out of his chair and was pacing the room, at last, resuming the same posture in his chair to stare at Kingasa. Kingasa nodded to the question that was asked. He knew that Inutaisho would be angry with what he had chosen, but it couldn't be helped and judging by the way Inutaisho's face had gotten all red and he was taking deep breaths while whispering rapid things to himself... yeah, he was definitely mad.
Inutaisho was a man with great wisdom for such a young age and he, as captain of the Takion Pirates, alway lead them towards the right path. Kingasa and him were like brothers so even though he was only co-captain it made no difference to him because Inutaisho always made it clear that they were in everyhing together. He had the smile of an innocent young boy that would melt any girl's heart. Even though Inutaisho was a demon, a very powerful one at that, his kind heart and great forgiveness was what made him so respected to his men and was what attracted him a wife whose beauty and generousity as splendid as his.
Kingasa watched Inutaisho, wanting him to reply first. He was however staring out of the big window behind him in deep thought. The light from the moon casting down on him made his face even handsomer.
"Kingasa, how many years has it been since we sailed the sea together through all the hardship? It's about 7 years right? Those good times... You know, you did say once that you wouldn't trade it for anything. ("What a hypocrite" Kingasa heard him whisper, obviously to himself) I see you have seen something or met someone better. But, that doesn't mean you should leave the Tikion pirates..." Inutaisho finally turned around, "Stay with us mate; We need you" With this, tears dropped down his beatiful white cheeks.
There was a awkward silence that followed.
"Oh drop the act Inutaisho! I didn't expect the crocodile tears from such a "manly" guy who gives wonderful speeches to his crew about how men who cry are sissies. Did you think I would fall for that? I am absolutly serious about my decision. She... Yumi... she is the perfect woman for me. I love her and I hope that you can understand."
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
Inutaisho wiped the fake shiny tears from his eyes, making sure to get all of the liquid muttering angerly. So much for the "working" fake tear drops that he bought not too long ago. What Kingasa said was very true about how he viewed crying men, but desperate times called for desperate measures. He thought that maybe fake tears would come in handy in hard situations. Inutaisho could still remember 8 days ago when it all started:

The Tikion Pirates had stopped at the nearest island, which was the Higurashi Island. Not only was it the nearest one, but also many people didn't know that it even exsit so it was the perfect hide out. The island was surrounded by the thickest fog and once you spotted the island, easier said than done, you would have to find somewhere to tie your ship amoungs the 40 feet high rock boarder that surrounded the island. There was only one way to get onto land and that was to dive 10 feet under where an opening was caved into the wall leading up onto land. Inutaisho and his crew had been fighting with the Yunaki Pirates for the longest time. Finally the opposing team relinquished the fight and retreated leaving them as the winners. The Yunaki Pirates were very tough so the fight lasted a very long time causing most of the members of the Takion pirates to be wounded. As they reached the stone wall, they repeated the same routine: the hurt men would cling to the nonwounded or at least decent ones and they'd dive under water to find the secret opening. When they surfaced, everyone got settled and they started a fire. They weren't worry about attracting the Higurashi people. It's King had made a deal with them that they wouldn't attack if the Takions didn't; for they had been the few beings who'd found their island and should be honored. It wasn't easy gaining their trust even though most of the people on Higurashi Island were very nice. They liked peace and quiet which was why they had settled in a place so secretly located.
Kingasa was daily sent to the villiage to supply the crew with food and water. On their leaving fifth day, everyone waited impatiently for kingasa to arrive with food and water as usually, but he was taking an unnecessarily long time to get back so Inutaisho decided to check on him. He had almost reached the village when voices were heard whispering to his right. He quickly reached for his fang sword called tesaiga (I'll get the spelling) and stepped off the trail to see what the problem was. There in the middle of the bushes was Kingasa and the most beautiful woman. Everywhere on her body was layered with jewelries, her waist long hair shined a wonderful glow, and her elegant dress followed her curves perfectly. It seemed as if they had been arguing for the longest time.
"Wow," Inutaisho managed to say before the beatiful woman grabbed Kingasa's hands and started speaking.
"Stay with me. We can live together peacefully on this Island and I'm sure that every one will aprove of you being king. If you marry me, we won't ever have to worry about being seperated again! I love you Kingasa and I know that you do too."
'King huh?' Inutaisho thought amused. 'And he never mentioned it to me. That pig.'
"No, I can't Yumi. I would rather die than leave the Takion Pirates and besides Inutasio would never permit it. I can't ditch them for this royalty stuff... I just can't do it. You'll have to go back because I'm sure everyone is looking for you by now and the crew must be worry about me too." Kingasa slipped from her grip and stared sadly into her eyes.
"You'll give it a thought, won't you?.. and... and then you'll come back and tell me. You'll come back and give me your reply after 4 days. I'll be waiting for you. I'll always be. I love you Kingasa!" The girl named Yumi gave him a tight hug, weeping heavily. Kingasa huged her back. They kept this position for a while until Yumi only hiccuped then Kingasa whispered,
"I will. I'll think about it and I'll be back in four days. I promise Yumi." With everything said, Kingasa kissed her on the forehead and turned to go through the bushes that lead to the ship. Inutaisho watched until Yumi had also disapeared to put his sword back and return to the ship. He was really surprised. Well, considering how Kingasa always volunteered to get supplies he shouldn't be, but how was he suppose to know that his good friend was going to fall in love with the princess?
"Hmph! He'll decide to stay with the Takion Pirates for sure. Why would he choose a spoiled royal who's trapped on an island for life as to free adventurous sea exploring? He'll be crazy to ruin such a great chance of life long fun..."
"Who's crazy?" Kingasa said out of nowhere. Inutaisho, startled, looked to his left to find Kingasa inching through the bushes onto the path. It seemed as if he had gotten lost.
"Oh! Well well, if it isn't the pirate who took his time getting supplies for his crew!" Inutaisho mocked. He decided that maybe it wasn't the right time to blurt out the fact that he saw his friend with the princess. Kingasa would have already told him if he thought it was right to, so Inutaisho would wait until he did.
"Well you know... this and that. Anyways, these are the food and water that were requested. Shall we get back?" Kingasa said trying to get leaves out of his hair short brown hair.
"Yeah!"

Yep! That was where it all started Inutaisho remembered, looking at Kingasa. The man was sitting across from him looking down trying to advoid Inutaisho's eyes. He chuckled inside thinking of how hard it was for the poor guy right now. It was have took alot to come up with this choice and this Yumi girl must be some gem for Kingasa to chose her instead. He let out the breath that he had been holding in. He must do the right thing.
"I am sorry, but I don't quite understand..." Kingasa looked up startled at the sudden noise. He was obviously in deep thought. "If you could chose between her and your comrades then you know what my answer is... go for it mate! Why are you asking me? Even if I say no, my dear wife will nag me forever. We shall miss you."
Inutaisho smiled. Kingasa smiled back.
"Let's keep our friendship alive even if we are miles apart Kingasa. I'm going to be a father soon. When you have your child and our kids are the same sex then they can be best friends like us, but if not we can call ourselves father-in-laws mate!"
"You have yourself a deal Inutaisho! I'm going now. We'll see each other again!" They grabbed each other's hand and shaked on the compromise. Kingasa finally turned and walked out the door.
Author's notes: Sorry that inuyasha and Kagome weren't mention in this chapter! I just decided that it was a little much to continue with them after the dramatic friendship scene! I hope that you all enjoyed this chapter. In case you haven't figured it out, the two guys in this chapter were Kagome and Inuyasha's fathers. Yumi is Kagome's mother and I don't think this is her real name so :( and I don't even know inuyasha's mother's name so I just kept saying Inutashio's wife. Yes Inutashio is already married and his wife is at the moment pregnant with Inuyasha. Okay that's all for now! Bye! (Don't worry, I'll find the spelling for the sword that Inutaisho carries which as you all know is passed on to inuyasha)
