It had been several hours now that her screams could be heard through out the castle of the eastern lands. He grinned as he listened to her continued screaming. It had started lighting the moment her screams started. Her demonic aura flaring out each time she strained.
Eventually the screams died away as his smile broadened. He awaited new from his servant any minute now. He stared out the window, listening to the nearing footsteps, as an old cat demon walked towards him with her head bowed low. He turned just as she arrived with the news he was seeking. She lifted up her head to him, and crimson eyes met ice blue eyes.
"Lord Mehtrun, your mate has given birth to three beautiful little girls, and she pulled through the birthing process just fine my lord." A tall man with black hair, and black eyes smiled. His black fox ear twitched and he swished his black tail. When he smiled two razor sharp white gleaming fangs protruded form his mouth, his eyes showing pure pride. "Also your mate even after four days of being in labor is requesting that you two name the children now." The tall man nodded.
"Three beautiful baby girls… which form were they born in?" Mehtrun asked.
"They were born in their fox-cat forms my lord." The elderly woman said, her hair gray form many years of serving her lords. Her cat ears twitched while her tail was swishing around.
"You have done my family for generations a great service serving us when we needed you, if you wish to retire from you service and stay at the castle you may Miccah." The young lord said.
"My lord, it would honor me to serve under you till I die, which will take a while." Miccah gave a smile. Mehtrun smiled back at her.
Only you would continue to serve this family." The elderly woman smiled and pushed the lord towards the room his mate was in. The young lord laughed.
"My dear old friend, I get the point" He turned and hugged Miccah. "You've always been like a mother to me, and you know it." Miccah smiled and again shoved him towards the room.
The lord walked up to the door, decorated with cherry blossoms carved into the cherry wood. He pushed open the heavy door, and looked in to see his mate, a beautiful young cat demon with fiery red eyes lay on a bed, the three kits nuzzled up to her, each having done been fed their first meal, and each one looking different from the other.
A completely crimson fox kit lay, next to another that was keeping her from touching the beautiful woman. A completely black kit nuzzled up between the woman and the other kit. A kit who slept nuzzled up to the mother, away from the other two kits was the cutest of all of the kits, her tail and ears were tipped with crimson where as the rest of her body was pitch black, save two stripes on each of her legs that were crimson, and on her forehead was the symbol of her heritage to the Eastern lands, a crimson blood drop.
His smile broadened when his mate looked up at him and smiled, her fangs showing, and her long crimson hair being held up in a ponytail.
"Sakura, my love shall we name the kits now?" Mehtrun Smiled at her and hugged her. She smiled as he beloved hugged her.
"Yes Mehtrun, but I get to name the first born." She said into his ear. Mehtrun whimpered and let go of her and pouted.
"But Sakura I wanted to name the first born." Mehtrun said as he pouted and then suddenly laughed. "Of course my mate, you get to name her, which one is it?" He looked at her questionably.
"The one with the blood line symbol on her head, you should of known that one." She giggled when he smiled at her. Mehtrun picked up the crimson and black kit and held it while Sakura thought of a name. "Lets name her… Elahym. I think that is such a beautiful name, it was my cousin's name." Sakura looked saddened but then she smiled when Mehtrun petted the kit's head.
"Elahym? I like that name too." Elahym yawned and nuzzled into Mehtrun's elbow and purred. "She looks like a fox demon, but she purrs, like her mother."
Sakura giggled as Mehtrun continued petting the fox kit.
"And the Black one shall be Kaylandra, after my mother, Lady of the Eastern Lands." He looked down at Elahym who was still purring.
"My love, I'm sure your mother would of loved to know that one of your kits was named after her." She smiled sweetly at him and grinned at he absent mindedly continued petting the purring kit.
"What to name the crimson one?" Sakura asked as she petted it.
"Yes, what to name her?" Mehtrun set the little kit down next to Sakura and thought for a while. "I believe she should be named… Renea." Sakura smiled broadly.
"I love that name." Sakura stated and smiled. Mehtrun smiled and looked over her and the pups. "Would like to sleep in our bed tonight, or stay here in the nursery?"
Sakura thought about it, and shook her head. " I would rather sleep in here with my pups for tonight." Mehtrun smiled and nodded his head.
"Good night my love" He leaned down and kissed her forehead. "You need your rest after this." He sat down in a near by chair and watched as Sakura fell asleep, all three pups snuggled up to her. He soon entered the world of dreams after she did.
Within the WesternalndsIn the western lands, The lord had received word that the eastern lord had now triplets. He growled low enough that his mate and son could not hear him. His amber eyes looked down at the message, the old cat demon and written and delivered herself.
"Inutaishio dear, what is the matter?" A beautiful dog demon that sat next to him said. Her blue eyes looking into his as if she were searching his soul.
"It seems that the eastern lord now has triplets, and we know not their names yet. " He sighed. Every since all four lands had split from the one due to the betrayal of the great lords mate and her giving birth to a cat demon, a dog demon, a fox demon and a wolf demon. His brother, which was a cat demon, Mehtrun who ruled the East, Kiyoto of the North, a wolf demon, and Jalakenta of the South, a noble dragon. Their feuds began when the first pup was born to the northern lord and his wolf mate, which since then had found a den and abandoned the castle.
"Father, why is there a female human in the castle" A teenage Sesshoumaru tugged at his sleeve.
"She is with pup my son." He told his son, his mate looking grim as he said this.
"Yours?" She asked, her blue eyes brimming with tears. Her sliver hair cascading around her. Inutaishio nodded, and she walked calmly from the room she was in. Sesshoumaru looked at his father questionably.
"Fathers, why is my mother crying?" He looked confused as his father hung his head and looked away. "Father?"
"Sesshoumaru, please go to your room…" The Demon lord said. He looked out a window and sighed. Now every land had an heir except for the south, who's lord was sterile. He out of the room to find his mate.
He had searched all of his lands, not finding her within a week, his soul weary from the search. He headed back to the western castle to search the place over again. He walked past a stair case heading towards a tower, which he felt a pull at his soul as he did. He turned around and headed up the many flights of stairs, dried crimson drops came into view on the stairs more frequently as he climbed up, his heart racing. He reached the top of the tower, and before him was a door with lunar flowers designed on it. He reached and opened the door and his face drained of all color.
"Kylana… my love…" He looked into the room and saw his mate, lying in pool of blood with a knife in her cold hand. Her wrists were gashed open with many cuts, and her throat was cut open. Her ice blue eyes were glazed over and her silver hair matted with dried blood. He picked up his dead mate and carried her down many stairs.
Sesshoumaru walked out of a room with cheery blossoms carved into the wood of the door in time to see his mother lying in his father's arms, covered in crusted blood. He looked at his mother, not understanding.
"Father is mother…dead? You broke her heart you bastard didn't you? She killed herself" Sesshoumaru growled, hoping that his mother wasn't dead. He listened and hear no pulse to tell him other wise.
"Stop talking, it's useless, there is no way to bring her back, she's dead." An icy tone coated his voice as he spoke low. Sesshoumaru cringed and looked at him.
"She's… dead?" Sesshoumaru looked at his father in disbelief. Inutaishio growled again and set off to make a grave for Kylana.
The demon lord went into his mate's garden where she and Sesshoumaru would sit in peace and enjoy the other company. There in the very center of the garden, next to a fish pond Kylana had built by hand was a tree of magnificent size. Inutaishio called a servant to clean and dress Kylana in her best Kimono and proceeded to dig her grave with out a servant's help. He finished digging her grave and waited a few minutes only to have several grim servants carry her body back out into the garden, being followed by Sesshoumaru.
A servant walked up to Inutaishio and bowed respectfully. "My great lord, the other lords and ladies have been notified of… Lady Kylana's passing." Inutaishio merely nodded and took his mate into his arms and lowered her slowly into the deep grave. Sesshoumaru walked foreword and watched as his father lowered his mother into the grave, silent tears streaming down his face.
"My mother, I hope you have gone to a better place." Sesshoumaru wished her silently.
"My son, don't cry, it makes you look weak." Inutaishio snapped at the young prince. Sesshoumaru glared through tear filled eyes and growled.
"You broke her heart when you told her that the half-breed would be yours didn't you?" Sesshoumaru found himself being pinned to the giant tree by his father who was extremely pissed.
"You will never call your sibling a half-breed do you understand Sesshoumaru?" Inutaishio growled out. Sesshoumaru glared at his father and refused to answer. Inutaishio looked at his son who never struggled while he held him up against the tree. Sesshoumaru glared coldly into his fathers eyes before his father threw him down, barely missing from throwing him into the grave that his mother lay in.
Sesshoumaru looked at his father and growled. Inutaishio merely looked at him before starting to fill in the dirt. Sesshoumaru walked out of the garden, and vowed to himself that he would never give into his father's demands of treating the human and he half-breed child like he did his mother. As he walked back to his room, he saw the pregnant woman who grinned devilishly at him.
"Now that she is gone, you will have to do as I say little Sesshoumaru." Sesshoumaru glared dangerously at her.
"I am not your servant Izoyai, and I will never be." Sesshoumaru growled out.
"Oh but you will Sesshoumaru, you will." She said and retreated into her room. Sesshoumaru growled before continuing down to his room.
Sesshoumaru realized that the human was going to make his life hell, and get away with it with his father.
Over the next couple of days Izoyai had told lies on Sesshoumaru to his father, each one being belived by the fool. Sesshoumaru rarely came out of his room to do any thing except train and eat and bathe. Within the next few weeks, Izoyai went into labor with Inutaishio's child while he was away fighting a great dragon, Ryokoutsei. Sesshoumaru was forced to listen to her screams as she gave birth to his sibling. A kind old doctor, came out carrying the baby and help t out to Sesshoumaru to hold. He took the child into his arms and saw the silver dog ears on his head.
"My young lord, your step mother has given birth to your half-brother, and at the moment she is resting, would you like me to look after him?" Sesshoumaru glanced her an emotionless look and nodded before handing the pup back to the docor. The doctor went backinto the room where Izoyai was and sSesshoumaru walked into the great hall of the castle, only to discover his father lying weakly on the floor. Sesshoumaru sent for a servant to take care of him, not caring weather the inu taiyoukai died.
Several weeks later Inutaishio was healed enough to get up and walk around and hold his hanyou son. He paid hardly any attention to his elder son. The lord of the East had come to visit with his mate and triplets.
"My Brother Inutaishio, this is you son Sesshoumaru?" Inutaishio nodded and held Elahym in his arms looking at her.
"She seems to be a strong one Mehtrun, what is her name again?" Inutaishio said curiously.
"Sakura and I have named her Elahym after our cousin." Inutaishio smiled and handed the kit to Sesshoumaru who held her up to look in her eyes. She pawed at his hair as he held her up and looked at Mehtrun.
"She is going to be strong Uncle Mehtrun." Sesshoumaru said in an emotionless tone.
"Hai she is my nephew." Mehtrun almost cringed at how emotionless Sesshoumaru had become.
After a few years had passed Sesshoumaru had grown colder towards every one except Elahym who constantly wanted to be around Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru had been training her to fight, not regarding her size.
"Sesshy, I cut you, I'm sorry" A 6 year old Elahym said holding her sword up in a fighting stance still.
"Elahym, you know not to say you're sorry to an oppenent." Sesshoumaru said, but added "I'll be ok though." Elahym smiled and charged Sesshoumaru again, who quickly darted to the left, only to once again feel Elahym's sword hit his armor, cracking it. "Well done Elly, that's it for today, you should go see your father now."
"But Sesshy…" Elahym whined.
"NO buts." Sesshoumaru said as a servant walked in and bowed towards him and Elahym.
"Sesshoumaru-sama, Lady Elahym, I'm here to inform you two with some grave news." The servant said still bowing. Sesshoumaru put his emotionless façade back on and looked at the servant.
"What is it?" He said emotionlessly.
"Lord Inutaishio has been died." The servant said. "You My young lord are now the Lord of the Western lands." The servant stood there as Sesshoumaru let the information register in his head. He smirked and dismissed the servant.
"Sesshy… does that mean Uncle Inutaishio wont be able to take care of Inu-" She was cut off by Sesshoumaru growling.
