He did it!
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha
A/N: Sorry it took so long, but…I'm very uncoordinated… I had broke my computer! I'm not gonna say just how I broke it but I did, and it took some time to fix it so please don't hate me for the wait. As for the mishap of Izayoi's name yes the computer did change it and it took me a while to put it back in because it kept trying to change it…any way's on with the story!
Chapter 3: You made me do it!
Tashio took a deep breath. 1…2…3 then let it out. He had used this method numerous times to keep from either killing his children or pulling out his hair…although maybe it was him but, it did seem to be getting a little thinner than it's usual thickness. He stood there looking at the three guilty children who were looking as innocent as a robber surrounded by the police. Nope. His anger was still there. Try it again, 1…2…3…ok maybe it'll work this time…
"Inuyasha, Sesshomaru, and Naraku I am going to count to three again and then I better not hear one word from you, I better not see you, I better not even be able to smell you do you understand me?" Tashio said with much boiling over the top anger
"Yes Sir, we do." All three said in unison
Naraku looked to Inuyasha, Inuyasha looked up to Sesshomaru but Sesshomaru was gone. He, unlike those two, knew what his father was capable of when he had reached that certain point. The two children trailed behind him trying to keep up with the ridiculously long strides.
"At least clean yourselves off first!" Izayoi's voice brang as a sense of calm compare to the tense atmosphere
"I will call for you three about an hour before dinner is served." Tashio said with a bit of amusement in his voice
With that the three of them were off. Sesshomaru really didn't know where he was going, all he knew was get away from his father before he explodes. Yes, he loved his father but sometimes it was one of Sesshomaru's favorite pass time to edge his father on left and right. He sensed the two behind him and tried not to get angry, after all they were the one's who started that little fight in Inuyasha's room…
'Ok so we go to get as faraway from dad as we can but…we still have to be on castle grounds and Lady Izayoi said to clean ourselves off so…' a thought stuck gold to Sesshomaru. 'Yes, that is the perfect place…then I can get them back from getting me in trouble with father!' So with this in mind he kept leading them down this hall and that hall and all of the sudden they were in front of the door that lead to the basement. Sesshomaru opened the door and crept down into the cellar of the castle and made sure that the two were behind him.
He looked around and you could sure tell that the cellar's were used very often…not one spec of dust…anywhere. 'God, my room isn't even this clean…' he thought to himself. He seemed to be looking for something…where was it? He remembered when Lady Sarihona and him looked for this and got into barrels…oh yes this would benefit him extremely for he knew the way and those two did not. He moved a cart hear, pushed a table there and then he looked down and 'Aha!' there sat a secret wooden door with a lock over it. It smelled kind of damp and Inuyasha heard some kind of odd rumbling sound. Sesshomaru lifted the door, Naraku, and Inuyasha gathered around him to see exactly what it was that he was looking for.
Inuyasha gulped…the odd rumbling sound he had heard was rushing water. This door was only used when they had shipped or rather floated things to other people and they had a receiving stall just like this, only it was for when people were generous enough to actually send 'them' stuff.
"What are we going to do?" Inuyasha said with deep caution
"Inuyasha 'we' are going to jump in there and in the process not only get clean, have fun but also get away from father as fast as possible. It's really short however we do have to look out for Sting."
"AWESOME!" Naraku shouted with glee and before Sesshomaru could stop him he had jumped in
"Come on Inuyasha! We have to follow him! What if he runs into my little Sting…"
"OH NO! I AM NOT PUTTING ON PART OF MY BODY INTO THAT NASTY WATER! IF IT HAS A GIANT JELLYFISH…" Inuyasha was cut off but Sesshomaru pushing him into the rushing water head first.
Things were whizzing past Inuyasha. If he hadn't had his eyes open he wouldn't have dodged that particularly large rock that almost hit him in the head. Everything was fine until he hit the wall that surrounded the gushing water. It knocked the breathe out of him and his vision went a hazy yellow. Just when he thought he was going to die from drowning he felt something soft in his hand…he knew the texture…that was Sesshomaru's tail! He wasn't going to die after all!
As soon as Sesshomaru felt his little hand grab onto his tail he sped up his pace using his youkai speed. Within moments he had found Naraku. He was already on the lake's shore from what Sesshomaru could tell. He broke the surface and threw Inuyasha to shore. The pup was hacking and coughing all the way. He swam to shore and almost choked on laughter from what he saw. There sat Naraku rocking back and forth with his hair kind of withered and already dried…something that he would carry for the rest of his life. When Sesshomaru last saw him he had really fine and strait hair and now it seemed…withered. It was too much for Sesshomaru he then decided that it was time to let it out.
Naraku wasn't at all pleased as to what was happening. First some crazed jellyfish comes after him nearly costing him his life, when he tried to get to shore it caught a hold of his leg, now that he finally is on shore he has a little inu-pup thrown at him, and now his so called 'best friend' is laughing at him! The nerve! He then felt something on his left shoulder; he turned to see Inuyasha taking deep breaths of air.
"You LIED Sesshomaru, I thought you said that it was SHORT!" Inuyasha said with anger and hurt laced into his voice
"Yeah! You said that…that…thing was small! I don't think your dad in his youkai form is as big as him!" shouted Naraku
"Hold on! Hold on! Look…" Sesshomaru started to say something but was cut in by his laughter
Naraku and Inuyasha glared at him like there was no tomorrow
"Alright…Inuyasha to me it seemed short because when I first did that not only was I with my mother but we were also in barrels so that we could still breath…"
"YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT YOU DIDN'T KNOW THAT WE WOULD SURVIVE!" Inuyasha said incredulously
"Well look at it this way Inu, you'll be an excellent swimmer! As for my Sting he looked very small from my mother's back…"
"You never saw you pet up close?"
"Of course!"
"Then why is something that big called small!" Naraku now was the one not believing the situation
"Well he was nowhere near as HUGE as my mother was in her youkai form…so I guess the thought never crossed me."
"Your unbelievable!" Inuyasha said
"I know I am thank you." He retorted back
"Why didn't it attack you two?"
"Sting was a gift from my mother, it knows somehow that I am her pup. I guess once it sees someone twice its size…" he was cut off by Naraku
"TWICE! TWICE IT'S SIZE I …I …" Naraku then fainted, just as he did Sesshomaru gasped
"What! What is it?" Inuyasha asked alert
"I just remembered something!"
"And that would be…" Inuyasha said getting a little impatient
"Naraku is afraid of anything three time's his dad's size…"
"How big is his dad?" he said out of curiosity
"About as tall as dad."
"I'm surprised he didn't pass out before than, cause that thing is just not of this earth."
"Hey I don't talk about your pet bunny!"
"He isn't a bunny his is a hare!"
"Same difference!"
In the midst of there argument they didn't realize that Lady Izayoi was coming up behind them to inform them that dinner would be served in an hour or even sooner. She almost expected them to be near that blasted lake with that treacherous jelly in it…she hated anything with more that two to four legs…it just wasn't natural! However she didn't expect to see Naraku sprawled out on the ground passed out. She quickly ran to him and tried to get him up but the child must've been scared to death. She called for one of her handmaids to help her wake the child just then the two boys noticed her.
"Mommy!" Inuyasha cried as he ran to her
"Sesshomaru tried to DROWN me!" he sobbed into her shoulder
"Sesshomaru Miliardo!" she said in a stern voice
"My Lady, Inuyasha is mistaken, I was just simply trying to wash him off. If I really wanted him to drown I would've poisoned him first." He said in a 'matter of fact' tone
"You will take Naraku to your room and I will call you when dinner is served!" she said not buying the child's story at all
Sesshomaru just shrugged it off. He really didn't need to prove himself to anybody, his yes should be yes and his no should be no, end of subject. He went over to Naraku and picked him up and started off to the palace. With the whole thing of trying to get away and get there scent's clean he for got one simple little minor problem…
"But my Lady, I cant go to my room." He said calmly
"Young man I don't want to hear your excuse you'll do as I say." Sesshomaru's eyes flashed red. Only HIS mom or his father could speak to him like 'that'.
"I DON'T HAVE A ROOM! GET THAT THROUGH YOUR HEAD!" he said loud enough for his father to hear
"Then go to a guest room." Was all his father said as he went to try to comfort Inuyasha. Sesshomaru rolled his eyes 'Yet they don't play favorites' he said mockingly to himself. He was just fine walking Naraku to the castle, it was when he had to climb a hoard of steps. He knew Naraku wasn't this heavy yet why did he fell like it. After what seemed like eternity to Sesshomaru he finally Naraku and himself up to one of the guest rooms. Just as soon as he got in the door Naraku awoke, they got dressed and they freshened up for dinner.
The halls of the castle were filled with life between the flame's dancing across the walls, the children's laughter, and the usual decorations that were suspended upon the walls. In the dinning area there stood a magnificent table with tons of food gracing it. After all dogs in general eat a lot, let alone growing pups. Everything was going very smoothly and nothing was amiss. That was until Inuyasha was trying to hard to spoon up his crushed/baked apple pie, it was accidentally flung right at his brother and the room went quite… Sesshomaru looked to his clothing and spotted where the pup had 'accidentally' got him with his food.
"I'm sorry Nissan! Really I am! Oh god! Please don't hurt me!" Inuyasha pleaded
"Its ok Inuyasha! It was a mistake and I forgive you." Sesshomaru said with a smile
The room went quiet again. None of them believing that Sesshomaru would just brush something like that off. Usually it would've been a 'YOUR DEAD!' or a 'DIE WEAKLING' not a "Its ok!" never had he done something like that and it greatly disturbed everybody.
"Son are you felling well?" Tashio asked
"Yes father why?" his son said with a smile
"Your starting to freak me out that's why!" both Tashio and Inuyasha said in unison
"Come now Tashio, Inuyasha maybe the boy just wants to be nice…" Izayoi said with a nerves laugh
"I think he's just that mad that he's going insane!" Naraku just had to add in
"Lady Izayoi had it right!" Sesshomaru said almost getting red in the eye
Because of his irritation he started to wave his hand rapidly underneath the table. The maids came and cleared the table off and the Lithuania came in and announced the next course which made Inuyasha freeze, Sesshomaru almost faint, made Naraku unknowingly shot a spider web from his finger tip and it was very, very securely raped around the chandelier.
"Fried Jellyfish, a courtesy from lord Tashio." She said and then left the servants to do there job.
"You…killed…my…Sting?" Sesshomaru asked with a shaky voice
Tashio stopped mid-bite and looked at his son and wondered 'What is he talking about?'. He then noticed that his son was shaking his shoulder. What was he doing underneath the table that he was shaking that hard?
"Son, what are you doing?"
"Waving my hand in anticipation, did you or did you not kill my Sting?"
"Who's Sting?"
"YOU DON'T REMMEMBER!" Sesshomaru cried and before he put his head in his hands Inuyasha could have sworn that he heard a squirting sound. Like when you squirt water at somebody.
"Sesshomaru stop being a baby!" Inuyasha screamed at him
"Inuyasha I'm not in the mood!" he said looking up at him with bloodshot eyes
"You act like such a girl…" Inuyasha stopped midstride when the children's course came in and the sat it right in the middle of the table. Although it would have looked alright if it not for the fact that it was now starting to sink…and sink…and sink.
"What is going on hear!" Tashio said a little perturbed that his magnificent table was sinking. He looked under the table and all of the sudden the whole castle heard
"SESSHOMARU!" obviously when he was either anticipating, or angry the poison in his claws came fast and heavy and the only way to get rid of it was to let it out
"Did you really have to melt my antique table…I would've got you a new Sting!" he said
"THEN YOU DID KILL HIM!" his eyes went red and wind started to howl
"Sesshomaru it's just a jellyfish!"
"Inuyasha stop making fun of him!" Naraku said sticking up for his friend
"JELLYFISH! JELLYFISH! JELLYFISH BEHIND YOU!"
"NOOOOOO!" Naraku screamed was put his hands to his hair and started running in the direction of the window to see if it was true. He forgot that a certain piece of silk was still rapped securely around the chandelier and it came hurling at him and grazed his head my inches. Instead it went out the window along with a chair or two.
"Wow you look more like a girl when your surprised Sesshomaru!" Inuyasha must've not have forgotten their little argument
"In-u-yasha…" he said with barley contained anger
"What FLUFFY!"
"You have until I count to three to get out or else I will kill you!" he said in a voice that almost didn't belong to him
"DADDY! MOMMY! HE'S FREAKING ME OUT!" Inuyasha tried to run away but Sesshomaru easily caught him
Tashio saw this and thought that is was better that he got Sesshomaru off of Inuyasha now before there was blood…and it wouldn't be coming from Sesshomaru. So he went over to the two fighting boys and in midst fighting Sesshomaru didn't realized exactly who it was that grabbed his arm so sharply, he thought it was someone trying to hurt him. He automatically got his poison claws ready and hurled it at Tashio's head. The poison missed him by millimeters, however Sesshomaru's clawed hand didn't. Tashio stumbled backwards and landed on the floor unconscious.
"OOOOOO! LOOK WHAT YOU DID!" Inuyasha said pointing a finger at Sesshomaru
"You made me do it!" he said pointing back
A/N: What did you think of it? Did you like it hate it? Do you think it sucked or did you actually enjoy it? Either way I'd love to know! Please review:)
