By the next day, things seemed to have calmed down on the surface. The fresh morning dew plastered the grass and the morning sun barely hid behind the horizon. But all over the demon slayer's fort, all hell and chaos had broken loose. The fort is in total frustration as servants try to cater to the needs of Inustido and his demon warriors. The servants are totally disgusted and feel as if they have turned their backs on the beliefs that they were raised and taught on. But everyone in the demon slayer tribe knew that desperate times call for desperate measures. The war against Naraku has pushed both Mitsurugi and Inutaisho in a dark and desperate corner. With both demons and demon slayers losing their lives daily, combining their man power and resources should greatly increase the odds of defeating Naraku once and for all. While Inutaisho is bossing around Mitsurugi's servants, Chiyo, Sango and Kagome's caretaker, is looking for the demon slayer in-training and the young priestess to get them prepared for their interrogation by the Demon Lord. "Has anyone seen Sango and Kagome?" Chiyo asked the other servants. "Kami, they need to get ready if they are to present themselves to the Demon Lord," she stated in frustration.

"Mrs. Chiyo did you look in the training grounds?" asked one of the servants. At that moment, Chiyo ran to the grounds to see Sango and Kagome practicing their fighting techniques. "What in the 7 hells are you two doing?" she screams with fury.

"Calm down Chiyo-chan, we're just training. It's not like we are hurting anyone in here," young Sango explained.

"Yeah Chiyo, we were just practicing. Besides you said, "Practice makes perfect," Kagome added in her mocking voice. Then both girls started laughing. Chiyo was consumed with rage as she dragged both girls by the ears all the while cursing at her misfortune. "Chiyo-chan please let go of my ear. I was just playing," Kagome whined.

"When my father hears of this he will throw you out-

"I'm not afraid of your father," as Chiyo intentionally interrupted. "I was his nursemaid when we were a baby. Now Hush your mouth, both of you!"

"Where are you taking us?" young Sango asked.

"I'm taking you to the bathing quarters," Chiyo stated.

"Why?" Sango asked. We already took a bath this morning."

"You are to meet your future father-in-law," Chiyo calmly stated. Sango and Kagome's jaws drops open as they are in total shock and disbelief.

"What are you talking about?" asked Sango.

"Your father, Mitsurugi, has offered your hands in marriage to the sons of the Demon Lord Inustido," Chiyo explained.

"How did this come to pass?" Sango asked as she is trying to further understand the situation.

"The war between Naraku has pushed your father to desperate measures," Chiyo explained.

"We are to kill demons not marry them!" she exclaimed.

"Well child, certain situations call for difficult decisions." Chiyo continued to explain. "You see girls; Mitsurugi needs help to defeat Naraku. So he asked the Demon Lord for help and for that you two will marry his two sons." Sango and Kagome did not ask anymore questions as they continue to let Chiyo bath and cloth them. After Chiyo is through doing the girls hair, they all go to the quarters of Inustido. "Now ladies, I want you to give the Demon Lord the respect that is required," demanded Chiyo. "I'll be in there with you girls to make sure everything goes well. Now smile and show him that you belong in the house of Mitsurugi."

"Yes Ma'am," said both Kagome and Sango. Chiyo quietly tapped on the door three times and the door slid open. She walked in and gave a deep bow to Inutaisho and announced that Sango and Kagome are ready for the interrogation. "Bring them in," said Inutaisho. Chiyo bowed again and then ushered young Kagome and Sango in. Both girls gave a deep bow and then positioned themselves on the cushion facing Intaisho. "What are your names children?" asked Inutaisho.

"Sango my lord," Sango responded.

"Kagome my lord," Kagome responded.

"Who is the oldest among you?" Inutaisho asked with curiosity.

"I am my lord," Sango said calmly.

"Tell me Sango, how many demons have you vanquished?" said Inutaisho with more interest and intrigue in his voice.

"I have destroyed fourteen my lord," Sango said with confidence. Inutaisho nodded with approval. "What is your weapon Sango?" Inutaisho asked.

"My weapon is Hiratsu, a giant boomerang." He nodded and then turned to Kagome. "How old are you little Kagome?" Inustido asked.

"Six and a half years old," Kagome responded with a smile on her face.

"Very well then," said Inustido as he grins back at Kagome. "What is your weapon?" he asked.

"Bow and arrows," Kagome responded.

"I sense that you have some spiritual powers," Inutaisho said with interest.

"Yes sure I do. My mother is a priestess," said Kagome.

"All right then I have made my decision," said Inutaisho.

"Very Well then, I'll tell Master Mitsurugi," said Chiyo.

Later in Private Quarters

"My maid told me that you already made a decision," said Mitsurugi.

"That is correct. Sango will marry Sesshomaru and Kagome will marry Inuyasha," Intaisho explained to Mitsurugi. "I will send ten of my warriors back home to bring both of my sons and my wife here to your fort."

"Excellent, the celebration will commence tomorrow night," Mitsurugi said will excitement and satisfaction in his voice. As Mitsurugi leaves to go to master's quarters, he shakes hands with the Demon Lord Inutaisho as their peace treaty is a success.
