A/N: I just wanted to note that the name Naomi was originally my friend, Amanda's.
Chapter 6: Tetsusaiga
When InuYasha entered his castle, he was greeted by a furious stepmother and two stepbrothers.
"Did you have a good time, muttface?" Koga said angrily.
"In fact, I did, muttface", InuYasha replied.
"How dare you talk back to him?" Naomi yelled and raised her hand to slap InuYasha, but InuYasha caught her hand before it could hit him.
"Remember, my dear stepmother that I am to wed the princess. If you don't keep well in line, I could give orders that you are to be killed. All this time I only did your stinking chores because I needed a place to stay and some food", InuYasha replied arrogantly.
"Way to go, InuYasha", Time said from the floor by InuYasha's foot.
"Thank you, Time", InuYasha replied with a smirk. "From now onwards, all the chores are to be done by you, and all the orders are to be followed by you and given by me."
Sesshomaru growled. "Si-" he started, but InuYasha cut him off.
"You tell me to sit, and I'll tell the princess to give you a punishment", InuYasha said.
Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes.
"Why don't you start off by cleaning the floors and washing the dishes?" InuYasha replied.
Koga gritted his teeth as InuYasha held out a bucket and a mop to each of them. Koga grabbed the bucket and Sesshomaru and Naomi did the same. They got down to their knees and started mopping the floors. InuYasha started upstairs and passed by the staircase to the attic. He had been forbidden to go up there.
"I wonder what is up there", InuYasha said outloud.
"Why don't you see for yourself?" Time replied.
InuYasha started up the stairs and opened the door to a dusty attic that looked like it wasn't cleaned for centuries. He found a match and some candles on a desk and lit one. He looked around the room when a sword caught his eye. He picked it up and read the name on the sheathe that said "Tetsusaiga". He unsheathed the sword and it instantly enlarged to a fang. (A/N: I know that Tetsusaiga only transforms when InuYasha is protecting a human, but in this case, let's just say it transforms whenever it is taken out of it' sheath)
"Wow", Time exclaimed.
"It's my father's fang", InuYasha said as he admired the sword. He picked up the paper that fell out while he unsheathed Tetsusaiga. He opened it up and read it.
Tetsusaiga
Tetsusaiga uses the Windscar and the Backlash wave.
Windscar: it is the fissure where the demon's aura collides. When you cut through it, it is capable of slaying a hundred demons in that single stroke.
Backlash wave: it uses the windscar to suck up the enemy's energy and throws it back at him.
(A/N: I think that's the description of the attacks. I hope I got them right.)
"Wow, this fang has some power", InuYasha replied after he read the note. "No wonder Naomi didn't want me up here. I'll practice with it."
"Why do you want to practice with it? Do you have to fight anyone?" Time asked.
"Yes. King Miroku said that if I beat him in a fight, he'll let me marry Kagome", InuYasha answered. "Don't tell Naomi or my stepbrothers. They'll only try to mess me up, okay?"
Time nodded and only because InuYasha had sharp eyesight, he was able to see the cockroach nod.
InuYasha sheathed the sword and took it downstairs. Naomi, Sesshomaru and Koga were still mopping the floor with an expression that could kill a dragon. InuYasha ignored them and went outside and started practicing until the next morning. His eyes were barely open and his swing was missing it's point which was a fat tree.
Time came up to him with a plate of fish sticks and a towel that was carried by a friendly looking dog.
"InuYasha, you should get some rest. It's morning", Time said. The dog put the plate down and Time thanked him and the dog went away.
"Huh? It's morning already?" InuYasha said, squinting through his half-closed eyes.
"Yes and I said that you should get some rest", Time repeated.
"Yeah, no plobrem. Plo noblem. Nop lebrem", InuYasha tried to get the word right.
"Don't you mean no problem?" Time corrected for him.
"Yeah, yeah, ro promlem", InuYasha repeated.
Time sighed. "Eat your breakfast first."
InuYasha took up the chopsticks and started to eat what he thought was the fishstick.
"Time, this fishstick is hard", InuYasha said.
"InuYasha, that's the towel", Time said.
"Oh", InuYasha replied.
"Look, get some rest first", Time said.
InuYasha started to put his sword in his sheathe, but ended up putting a hole in his kimono and slipped the sword into the hole and started for the castle.
"He's hopeless", Time said to himself.
