Itsa Mia: Ohayo! Konnichiwa! Good morning! Hello! Good evening! I did say I would like 5 reviews, but I'm too far underground. Plus, 4 is my lucky death number! "
Sall: Shakes head (Whispering) it's the studying. I don't bother with it.
Itsa Mia: Snaps out of daydream What was that Whitney…I mean Sall. On with the praises!
Critara's Pride: -How could you think such a thing! I'm not even going to bother answering to that.
Jai2133: - . You really think so! Arigatou Gouzaimashita!
OK, now the story. (Remember, xxxxxxx's change POV) Warning: Anyone can sit Inuyasha.
Ch. 2
Talk of the Prince and Demoness
Inuyahsa POV
"Inuyasha! Pay attention! You'll never get married if you don't have manners! (Respect is big in Japan, and I found a quote that fits in, so deal with the corn!)" Sesshomaru yelled at me.
"I am paying attention! And what if I don't want to get married?" I yelled back.
"Too bad then, isn't it? Inuyasha, you have no choice. I didn't. You have to get married, and the ball is in two days! Aren't you the least bit nervous?"
"No. Why should I be? And…" I paused. Sesshomaru looked impatient.
"And what?" he asked.
"What if I don't fall in love? Or worse! What if I do fall in love, but she doesn't want to marry me?" Sesshomaru looked at me.
"What kind of girl wouldn't want to marry the prince, and so far heir to the throne? Inuyasha, you only have two days to clean up your act, and we're going to make those days worthwhile."
I spoke the question that I asked every day. "So who died today?"
"No one died today, but there was a funeral. It was for Lady Higurashi. I told you she died a while ago. I hope her daughter comes to the ball. She is quite a thing to look at. And she could teach you how to behave. Now, you are dismissed to your room. Goodnight Inuyasha," he said. I stood and walked out the door.
"I swear you're going to try to kill me someday," I muttered.

Koga POV
I looked over to Kohaku, who was reading a book on mountains. "Hey, do you think mom is thinking of marrying that Lord Whatever-his-name-is?"
"I don't know. I wasn't paying attention to that. I was watching you stare at Lady Kagome and that monk guy. You know what I think, Koga? I think you have a crush on her!"
"I DO NOT!" (Childish much?) I yelled as Kohaku started singing a strange song about trees. (You know: Koga and Kagome sitting in a tree, I won't go any farther.) "Listen," I said. "Lord Higu-something is very rich and owns a lot of land. You know how mom is. But this would be the first time she marries a guy with a child. What do you think she'd do?"
"I don't know and I don't care. Now lets go to bed, Koga. You can worry about this in the morning."
"Fine. Goodnight Kohaku," I said as I walked towards my bedroom.

Kagura POV
I put my hairbrush down as Sesshomaru walked in.
"Konbanwa, my Lord," I said as I bowed.
"Hello," he returned, sounding tired.
"My Lord, I heard that there is demoness in the country that marries wealthy Lords, only to kill them and take all of his riches. Is it true?" I asked my husband.
"I am afraid so. And I believe she has found another target. Lady Higurashi was buried today." I cut in.
"But Lord Higurashi has a daughter. The demoness isn't known for marrying men with children."
"I know, so for the time being I believe he is safe," Sesshomaru looked at me as he said this. "Kagura, I'm worried about Inuyasha. I keep saying that if he doesn't want to go through with the ball, he can just marry Kikiyo. But he believes that she only cares for him because he is a prince, and if he were born a peasant she would turn he nose up at him. And he refuses to be respectful! All he cares about is if someone died. Do you think we should postpone the ball?" he finished.
"As a matter of fact, I do. Maybe if we do him a favor, he will use proper etiquette when he does have to choose a bride. Do you agree, my Lord?"
"Why, that's a great idea! I'll postpone it for a week or two. Good thing we haven't sent the notices out yet. I just hope Inuyasha agrees with all of this."
Itsa: Just tell me if you want me to translate the Japanese for you.
