Chapter 8

"Well somebody believes Jess.", Kagome said, trying to comfort the frightened, crying infant.

"I'm not letting anybody chase us away. The next time this happens, I'll show them freaks.", Inuyasha said, throwing the brick out into the yard and tossing away the note.

"I'm not worried about a couple of young adults acting like frightened children.", said Kagome, as she nursed Tia to calm her.

Sage, Shane, Ian and Kellen walked in the door.

"What's going on, mama?" asked Kellen.

"What do you mean, hon?", her mother asked back.

"She means the neighbors are running inside when we walk past and what was with that truck that went peeling down the street?", Ian asked.

"Does this have something to do with Jess seeing me without me necklace?", Sage asked, sadly.

"Yes, I'm afraid it does. I wouldn't worry about it. It will blow over in a few days."

"Ok, who let slip we had dog ears?", asked Bunza, walking in through the front door and coming face to face with the group.

"I'm afraid our former maid Jess saw Sage without her necklace.", his mother answered him, "Why?", she questioned.

"Because one of our neighbors just asked me about it. I laughed and said that who ever said that must be doing heavy doses of LSD or crack."

"I hope that helps.", Inuyasha said, and then he paled. There was Pierre, their chef, standing in the doorway to the dining room.

"Dinner is served.", he said, in his heavy French accent.

"Uh, sure.", said Inuyasha, who looked warily at his family. As Pierre turned away, Inuyasha asked, "Uhm, Pierre, how much did you hear of what we said?"

"Master, I, unlike Miss Jessica, do not repeat what I hear in my Masters' homes. Whatever you are or aren't it is not my place to know or care. I am here to cook your meals and that is all. You could be the devil incarnate and I wouldn't care as long as I got paid at the end of the week and had my days off. Will that be all, Sir?"

"Yes, Pierre. And I appreciate your attitude."

"Certainly sir.", he said, as he entered the kitchen to bring the meal out.

As they sat and ate, Kagome explained about Lizzie and how she was going to go and see her tomorrow. Inuyasha objected again,

"I think you are asking too much, Kagome. I really do. If I were you, and obviously I'm not, I would keep my nose out of it."

"You always want me to keep my nose out of other people's business. I know. But I need to find out about this Jones guy. And that woman on the rock. What Shane saw was far too interesting to just let go. And this girl apparently has a lot of information on this guy."

"I say go for it mom.', said Shane, as Inuyasha glared at his son, who quickly lowered the ears to show compliance.

After dinner, Kagome drove over to the Bridgemont. She entered the lobby and asked for Izayoi's room. The clerk called up to the room to announce Kagome's presence. Kagome could hear her daughter's voice on the phone,

"Please, send her right up."

Kagome headed up top the fourth floor and quickly found room 414. Before she had a chance to knock, Izayoi threw open the door and greeted her mother,

"Mama! I'm so happy to see you!", Izayoi said, as she threw her arms around her mother. Izayoi looked absolutely dazzling. Through the magic spell, Kagome could see her waist length silvery hair, her green eyes and dog ears. Dressed in a summery yellow sundress and 3 inch heeled sandles, she looked like a stunner. Even with her black hair, Izayoi was definitely her father's daughter. Kagome always said Izayoi looked like Inuyasha would look, if he was a girl.

"My girl, how are you?", Kagome gushed.

"Oh Mama, I'm fine. Come in Come in."

Kagome entered and was greeted by a devilishly handsome man with shoulder length black hair, grey eyes and pointed ears.

"You must be Mashai.", Kagome greeted the young man.

"Yes, ma'am, I am. And I can see where Zai gets her looks."

"Forget the flattery. I'm not the one you need to impress, obviously. And the whole family knows Izayoi looks just like her father. Only with boobs!"

Kagome sat down on a chair in the suite as Izayoi and Mashai sat down too.

"Yes, Mama. Papa was definitely out of line today. I'm sorry. But when Yasha told me you were here, I decided to drive down and surprise you. It was Papa who shocked me, however."

"Well, Izayoi, please remember. Naraku was your father's most bitter enemy. The things he did ... I just cannot make you understand the depth of his feelings."

"Mama, I know. But that was Naraku. Not Mashai. I did have a long talk with Mashai about not telling me he was Naraku's kin, let alone son. But he says he never knew his father. Papa should give him a chance."

"Your father is wary of anybody having to do with Naraku. I'll talk to him tonight, sweetheart."

"Thanks mama. If anyone can get through to him, it's you."

"I'll try."

"So you didn't bring the baby? I want to meet my newest sister."

"She was asleep when I left and after today, she needed her sleep. She didn't nap at all today."

"Honestly mama, I don't know how you manage 122 pups."

"122?", Mashai asked, incredulously.

"Yes, Mashai. For over 400 years of marriage, that's not bad, I guess."

"One person for over 400 years. That's incredible.", Mashai commented, "You must really love each other."

They three continued talking into the night. Eventually, Kagome got up and went home. Inuyasha was waiting up for her.

"So, is she still pissed at me?"

"No. She just wants you to understand that Mashai doesn't necessarily mean harm."

"Necessarily?"

"Well, that's my word. He seems nice but who knows what goes on behind another's eyes?"

"That's my point!"

"Ahhh Inuyasha, my love. The sins of the father?"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"You always disliked people comparing you to your father, correct?"

"Because I didn't know him. He died shortly after I was born."

"Precisely. Mashai didn't know his father either."

"Yes, but his mother did. And anyone who would mate with Naraku ..."

"Maybe she didn't want to mate with Naraku. Did you ever think of that?"

"Are you saying she was raped?"

"That I don't know, but, we don't know the circumstances behind Mashai conception and birth."

"True."

"Give him a chance, for me?", Kagome asked, sweetly.

"Make love to me, Kagome. All night."

"You changed the subject."

"Did I?"

"Inuyasha!"

"Fine. Fine. I'll give him a chance. Now will you share pleasures with me?". Inuyasha said, with his pleading puppy dog face.

"One moment, let me change into something more comfortable."

"Make sure it's green."

"Ooooo, you want the green outfit. Ok, my love."

Shortly, Kagome came out in a forest green baby doll with black hose held up with garters. The panties were crotch less and the bust area had slits for the nipples. She knew Inuyasha liked this outfit because she didn't have to get undressed to have intercourse. He could admire her in it the whole time. Inuyasha's eyes grew wide when she appeared. Damn, he loved her when she was in a naughty mood. This was going to be one hell of a night!
