Welcome one and all to another episode of A Pirate's Life for Me! Okay so it's not really an episode, but hey, I can pretend can I not? So I have been away for quite sometime, and I know you are all anticipating this chapter, but my muse completely died on this chapter, I'm sorry. Actually, it completely died for this story… and then it started working for my other story, which is not a fanfiction at all, but an actual story to I hope to get published someday… so you know how that goes. The muse was dead on that for two months straight and then BAM! I get ideas out the wazoo on that one… so yeah, and now here I am.

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha; if I did I would be rich and not writing a fanfiction about him… and his sexiness…

Chapter Fourteen: Cold, Dad, and Plots

The ship was sailing silently in the night and nothing could be heard, that was until a sneeze was let out. Kagome had been stuck on the ship for the past week and was basically tied to the bed. She could get up and move a bit, but she was tied to the bed by an arrogant captain who ordered her to bed rest and she refused. Stupid, no good, dirty rotten, gold stealing, pirate. He can't just tie me to the bed to get me to stay here… She thought to herself.

"He can if you're chained to the bed…" she whispered to herself. She sighed heavily and sat back down on the bed, bringing her feet up and leaning back on a pillow in defeat. She pulled the covers up and took the soup that had been placed on the night stand. She brought the spoon to her mouth, and blew on it a little. It was just brought up and she could still see the steam. She slurped it down and it quickly soothed her sore throat. She closed her eyes and leaned her head back on the wood.

"I see you are finally taking his advice." A voice brought her to open at least one of her eyes. InuTaisho was standing in the doorway and watching her. She smiled a bit and closed her eyes.

"What did you expect from a woman like me? To say "Yes, dear, I'll do whatever you say" and comply with someone who can't even listen to the simplest of instructions?" Kagome said sitting up once more and placing the bowl of soup on the night stand once again. InuTaisho brought the only chair over to the bed, after shutting the door, and taking a seat.

"I understand, but he only wants what is best for you, my dear." Taisho said. Kagome looked at him as if he were waiting to say something.

"You have something you want to ask me or tell me?" she asked, hoping this would just get to the point.

"Actually, yes." He said and looked over to her. She quietly brushed off invisible dust on the blanket and looked back up to him, waiting for him to say what he had to say. He took a breath in and let it out slowly. "Are you and my son… involved?" He asked hesitantly.

Kagome blinked a few times and looked at him to make sure he was serious, and he was. She couldn't help it then and burst out laughing. InuTaisho looked at her confused. She thought he was joking.

"Me and Sesshomaru only play around like that to get a rise out of Inuyasha. We're not involved in any way, shape, or form!" She chuckled. She calmed down a bit and saw that InuTaisho was not laughing, but still had quite the serious face.

"I wasn't talking about Sesshomaru." He stated. Kagome bit her bottom lip now realizing she had assumed he meant the older one.

"Oh." Was her all intelligent answer. She thought about what she had with Inuyasha, she blushed at the thought of him. This did not go unnoticed by the elder next to her bed, neither did the solemn look.

"I'm… not quite sure where we stand…" She answered honestly, sadly.

"I see." He stated before getting up and leaving the girl to her peace. He could still since the sadness that radiated off of her. He made up his mind then; he was going to talk to his younger son.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inuyasha sat in the navigation room which overlooked the entire ship and both sides of the ship. This ship was different from his, but he didn't care, it got him around. He sighed heavily as he looked out the west window out over the ocean. It sparkled with moonlight, which the moonlight was only a sliver. The new moon is coming… he thought depressingly. He hated that night the most. It was the night he was human. He would have to lock himself in the captain's quarters and wouldn't be able to see anyone. He was in the midst of his thoughts when the door to the navigation room was busted open and his father stood in the doorway.

"Are you interested in her or not? If you keep leading her on and leaving her hanging, or using her for something you want, she isn't going to want to stick around any longer." InuTaisho lectured him. He was speaking from experience.

"Why would she like a hanyō like me? No one can love a half-demon." Inuyasha stated sadly, looking out the west window again. He was forced out of his attention with his father gripping the front of his button up shirt, pulling him out of his chair. His father's fangs were bared at him, a growl coming forth.

"That woman loves you and I know you feel something for her. I see it in the way she looks at you when you're not looking and when I was talking to her just now. If you are too fucking stubborn to see it, then maybe you don't deserve her." His father stated through clenched teeth. He dropped his son to the ground and stormed out of the room. Inuyasha just watched, bewildered at what his father just told him. Kagome loves me? He thought, and the thought made his heart soar. He sat on the floor for a moment longer before getting up and sitting back down in the chair he was previously occupying. He looked out over the deck to see his men doing what they were supposed to be doing, catching sight of his dad on the bow of the ship. He smiled, he made up his mind. I'm going to tell her tonight… he thought.

"I will tell you I love you, Kagome." He stated confidently, unaware of a pair of azure eyes watching from the open door.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Naraku smirked evilly from behind a scroll he just received. He nearly broke out in a sinister laugh, but stopped as soon as his wife walked into the room with his lunch. He smirked evilly as she set down the tray and smirked at him.

"Love, why don't we play a game…?" Naraku asked, a hint of playfulness in his tone. If only his wife knew what he was really planning on doing.

"Sure, m'Lord. What kind of game?" Kikyo asked, mistaking his playfulness with lust, and not something else. Naraku's smile grew.

"It's a game of William Tell. You balance an apple on your head while I try to hit it with a dagger." He explained and watched the smile slowly fade off his wife's face. "What? Don't you trust me, m'love?" He asked, his smirk still planted on his face. He saw a nervous smile appear on the woman's face and nod. He took the apple off his tray and placed it on top of his wife's head. He proceeded to walk past her, after the apple was balanced, to a mahogany cupboard. He pulled out on of the drawers and pulled out three daggers. He instantly threw on of the daggers, missing the apple and scathing her cheek. Her eyes widened as she felt a small dribble of blood go down her face. She brought her hand up and wiped it off and looked up to see the next dagger flying past her neck. Her breathing hitched as she saw the malicious gleam in her husband's eyes.

"Lord Naraku, my love, what has possessed you?"

"Nothing, dear. This is the real me." He stated before flinging the dagger and turning his back. His smirk did not fade as he heard his soon to be deceased wife's body hit the floor. The apple rolling a bit before stopping. He heard a small whimper as he walked out of his study. Kanna appeared in front of him and he looked down.

"Make sure you dispose of her, and capture some poor random guy and let the town know he killed the Lord's wife." He instructed and Kanna nodded. He went on his way and made his way to the sitting area where a female was lounging.

"What is the news, Kaguya?" He asked.

"They are in open sea, a few of your navy ships are trailing them, keeping a good distance away. You could capture Kagome tonight." She informed him, a wicked grin on her face as she would now be taking care of the hanyō instead of kissing him.

"Excellent. I shall be on the boat to greet our guest." He stated, a gleam in his eyes as he walked off. Kaguya bowed and vanished in a dark cloud.

Your time is up, Kagome. You will be my bride or perish.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Kagome sat upon the deck, enjoying the moonlight before it went away for the new moon. She had had a bad feeling since the sun went down and couldn't understand why the feeling wouldn't go away. Something isn't right… she thought, her eyes scanning the ocean for a sign of anything. She didn't notice when a certain hanyō came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Whatcha looking at?" he whispered into her ear.

"Something doesn't feel right… Something is wrong…" Kagome stated a smirk on her face but seriousness remained in her eyes and tone.

"Like what?"

"I… don't know. I just know something isn't right." She said, keeping her gaze out to the ocean a bit longer. The little moonlight that was there had made it impossible to see from the distance. Inuyasha took a look with his eyes and didn't see much of anything. He wasn't sure about a few specks, but he got the feeling of something was going on, and it wasn't good.

"I don't see anything on the horizon, and I have better eyes than you in the dark." He stated, being a little cocky about it.

"Alright, if you can't see anything then there must be nothing there…" Kagome trailed off, the bad feeling still wasn't gone and Inuyasha noticed this. He pulled Kagome away from the railing and towards the middle of the deck.

"How about you tell me how you got out of those restraints which kept you bedridden." He asked his arm carefully around her waist and leading her down the steps to the main deck. She side glanced him.

"It wasn't hard to convince Miroku to let me free. You must realize he doesn't like to see me unhappy as I am a sisterly figure to him." She explained her tone a bit playful. Inuyasha blinked a few times.

"Sister figure?"

"Yeah. You thought he was a love interest?"

"…no…" He stated hesitantly, looking away from her. She laughed at his childish behavior which earned her a glare. She clamped her lips together trying to hold back the giggles which were still coming from her, trying to be nice, but it wasn't working. He stopped them in the middle of the deck and turned her to where she was facing him.

"Kagome… I have something I need to tell you." He started and her giggles came to a complete stop as she noticed how serious he was acting.

"What is it, Yasha?"

"Kagome… I lo-"

BOOM

He had been cut off by the sound of a cannon going off and hitting the ship, rocking the ship, nearly knocking over the couple.

"Fuck." Inuyasha swore under his breath, catching Kagome before she could hit the deck. He steadied her before he started yelling orders to his crew and survey the damage. Before he could do anything more another loud boom had erupted and the ship was hit yet again.

"FUCKING A! LOAD THE FUCKING CANNONS AND FIRE ALREADY!" Inuyasha yelled, his crew coming to life in a matter of seconds. Blurs of demons and half demons alike could be seen loading the cannons. Kagome ran down below deck to find splinters of wood and pieces lying everywhere along with water slowly creeping its way into the ship.

"Shit." She whispered and continued her way to find Shippou. She stuck close to the wall as to not get in anybody's way and was happy she wasn't being noticed, that was until the enemy started to board the ship and fighting ensued. She dodged her way past fighting groups and made her way into her room to find it empty.

"Goddamn it, Shippou, where are you?" She asked to no one in particular. She felt someone tap her on her shoulder and she turned around. It was one ugly enemy because as soon as she turned around she screamed and punched the poor guy in the face. He went flying back into the hall into a group of demons who were coming after her.

"Fuck me…" she stated and noticed when there were more demons in the group then she saw before. "Fuck me sideways…" she complained and realized there was only one way she could do this, and the problem was, she didn't know how to do it.

"Oh fuck a duck!" she exclaimed and tried to not panic and think rational on how to make her miko powers work. She thought about how she really needed the powers right now to purify every living demon in the room. Then noticed her hands started glowing a light blue.

"Whatever works." She said, before charging into the group of demons. Her feet glowed as well as her fight ensued, punching and kicking any demon in sight. Each demon was fearless even after the first few had fallen, purified. The more she fought, the more it seemed there were more and more demons. Once she just had it, and was getting tired really quickly. She was getting extremely frustrated that the numbers didn't even seem to dent. She ducked down, putting her fists to her temples as the started to hurt and shot up, letting out a pained yet frustrated scream. Her aura completely filled the room and shooting out into the hallway. Every demon in any kind of closeness to the room was purified instantly. Kagome dropped to her knees, rubbing her temples as they ached, a ringing in her ears making the headache worse. She rocked back and forth not noticing when someone had walked into the room, standing right in front of her. When she finally felt the presence, she looked up the nice royal blue suit of someone she'd rather not see, a person in which she would have the pleasure of killing.

"Kagome, love, you really should be on the floor or wearing those god awful men's clothes." He stated a wicked smile on his face. Kagome's eyes widened, fear striking her in the heart.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inuyasha was on board fighting his way through the navy enemies while trying to make his way under deck. He kept running into more problems, either someone attacking him or him needing to attack someone and the problem was he kept getting drawn away from the stairs. He was in the middle of the battle when all the enemies stopped, and his men stopped as well. He noticed all of them were looking to the stairs, and he looked that way as well. He nearly dropped his sword with what he saw. Kagome being led by Lord Naraku himself to the deck, a gun stuck under her chin. His hand attached to her arm in a death grip, pulling her along.

"Well well, Inuyasha, you think you can save her now?" He stated, cocking the pistol. The hanyō took in a quick breath and let it out in a low growl. The enemies started to back off and head back to the ship. Naraku stayed and was safe because of the hostage he held. He leaned in close to Kagome's ear, keeping his eyes on the inu hanyō captain, and bit on the lobe of her ear. This caused Kagome to cringe and stiffen and Inuyasha to growl even louder.

"It would be wise not to follow us." Was the last thing Lord Naraku had said before disappearing in a cloud of dark smoke and reappearing on his ship. From there Kagome could hear the enraged roar of the ship's captain.

"Sink it." She heard Naraku ordered.

"No! You promised!" She thrashed about and struggled to get from his grip that was until she heard the massive explosion. Her body completely froze as she saw the ship engulf in flames and smoke.

"No…" She whimpered. She felt the grip on her completely let go.

"Inuyasha…" she whispered looking out onto the ocean.

"INUYASHA!" she screamed out, not knowing why. Maybe half of her hoped to get a response. The only thing she got was being dragged away from the rail and brought to the under deck and locked in a room.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

InuTaisho looked out to where his son's ship used to be. He couldn't believe his eyes. He saw the ship blow up right in front of him. He had stayed far enough away the Navy ships hadn't seen his, but his son was the target. Not only his son, Lady Kagome had been captured and now was in the hands of the person they didn't want her to be in the hands of. His thoughts were all over the place, because it wasn't just his son on that ship. He knew many men on that ship who he wished were okay.

"What has happened…" he said out loud to no one in particular.

"My fucking ship blew up, that's what the fuck happened." Came the crude voice of Inuyasha himself.

"But how did you?"

"Escape? I wasn't stupid. I knew as soon as he left he would try and get rid of me." He stated pulling himself onto the ship. He turned around and started hauling up the crew he could save, Miroku, Kouga, Shippou, Myoga, Kohaku, and a few others he could trust, Bankotsu not being one of them. InuTaisho couldn't believe his eyes.

"What are you going to do?"

"About Kagome? I don't know. We have the element of surprise though, he thinks I'm dead."

"Yeah, but so does Kagome…" Shippou whispered, hoping Inuyasha hadn't heard, but the way the hanyō looked to the floor, he knew he heard.

"We need a plan."

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well there we have it my friends. Chapter 14 for you all. I know it took me forever to get this up and running but, at least I got it up. I would like to thank Ryan Renyolds for the lines used by Kagome. If you've seen Blade Trinity you know which ones I mean. I know it's tragic and this seems like the start of the end, but is it really? Who knows… not I. I actually don't know. I may end it… I may not… it depends.

Like I said before I don't know when I will be able to get the next chapter up between school and my muse working for my other story. Which if you want to read then message me

Peace and Love,
