AN: I do not own Inu-yasha

The Ball: Part 2

"Your name m'lady" ask the announcer.

"Sango"

Quieting the room; The trumpets blow while the announcer speaks " Presenting Princess Kidakakosh and Lady Songo . Walking down the stairs with Sango, many men come over to ask for her company. Only she wasn't paying attention, for she has caught the eyes of Sesshou-maru; standing there leaning against the wall with women flocking around him and looking like a god. He wasn't wearing hi usual apparel; but a blue rob trimmed with gold, that stopped at his hips, with no tie showing off his bare chest. His pants were black also trimmed with gold.

'God he look like a god' was her last though as she noticed that he was coming her way.

........................

He was standing against the wall surrounding by women who were chatting mindlessly about nothing, when "Presenting Princess Kidakakosh and Lady Sango". Looking up only to get caught in the beauty before him. Watching as she seemed to glide down the stairs, smiling to Sango and unconsciously enchanting everyone there with her beauty. Only to growl as the men start to surround him. Catching her eyes with his own. Smirking as he caught her staring and widening when she blushed at being caught staring. Coming up to her holding out his hand to her , in a small but commanding voice he says "Dance with me"

Shock taking over her body; preventing her from moving. ' did he just....?'

Raising an eyebrow in amusement he says "Kagome"

"OH! , yeah, ok" gaining back control over her body and taking his hand.

And they danced for 3 songs in comfortable silence, with Sesshou- maru nuzzling her neck and ever so often sniffing her scent. Until..... "Kida are you not going to say happy birthday to you cousin."

Breaking apart form each other with Sesshou-maru growling and glaring at the intruder.

"Hello Toris, and happy birth...day.....uh is something wrong?"

"hehe, no no no. nothings :gulp: wrong "he said nervously, while glancing at Sesshou-maru.

'o-k, anyway. Man 258yrs old , your getting old Toris"

"Kida we're only 50 years apart, so if I'm old then your not far behind are you" he stated with an eyebrow raised

"and your looking younger then ever" she said playfully; while he chulked.

"I almost forgot how funny your are" smiling at her.

"Oh!, where are my manners . Toris, this is Sesshou-maru, Lord of the western lands. Sesshou-maru, this is my cousin Toris , Prince of Shang-hi.

"How do you do? Asked Toris holding out his hand.

Looking at his hand with disgust, he nods his head not wanting to touch him "Hmmm" Sesshou-maru says before walking away.

Glaring at Sesshou-maru's rudeness, she turns to her cousin with an apologetic look. "Sorry about that :sigh: as you can see he's not a very sociable person"

"Hmm, yes but what I want to know is what is going on between the two of you , eh?" he asked with a smirk.

"Wh..what!" shock evident with her outburst and expressions.

"Well you two just looked pretty comfy in each others arms. I just guessed something was going on" he said looking as if it was no big deal.

Pinching the bridge of her nose to try and stop the on coming head ach; she says in a calming voice "No, nothing is going on, and if something was going on I wouldn't tell you. I still remember what you did to my last boyfriend, Toris. I spent a whole year trying to convince him that you are not the 'Devil' and you will not condemn him to hell!" glaring at the 'innocent' look on his face.

" What! Can I help it if I'm worried about my favorite little cousin"

"I'm you only cousin " she mumbled while still glaring at him.

"And can I help it that he's so gullible! I mean he ate up every word I said; I mean come on. Kida of you think of the way that Hobo guy reacted too, that way funny. You should have seen the way he reacted when I told him you had some contractible disease that would make his dick fall off. Ha ha that was priceless" Toris said ignoring the way Kida seemed to explode with this new information, and explode she did.

"YOU DID WHAT!, Oh my god, oh . my. God. You did not tell him that!" she yelled at her cowering cousin, and drawing attention to their little conversation. 'ok kida calm down. Take a deep, Deep, Deep, breath and don't kill him . No, I will not kill him, I will not kill him, I will not kill him. Was her mantra . But as she continued to look at him it turned into 'I'll kill him, I'll kill him and I'll enjoy it'.

Noticing his daughter about to murder the birth-day boy , King Rama intervenes. "now, now Kida , calm yourself. what ever he's done, I'm sure his death can wait until after the ball. This isn't the time nor the place. This is his party let him enjoy it. Then you may kill him."

Heeding her fathers words she turns and leaves; but not before she gives her cousin a glare that said 'you'll be dead by mid- day tomarrow.'

"Why must you agitate her so?"

Turning to the king . He replies with an innocent look "why, Uncle I have no idea what your talking about"

"Hmm" the king says with a raised eyebrow.

"What ? ":blink: :blink:

" your hopeless"

"What'd I do ? "
