Chapter two Inuyasha Returns Home
"Inuyasha." Miroku said as Inuyasha was walking around in the forest. Inuyasha and gang were waiting for Kagome to return from her era.
"What?!"
"Sit down and wait for Kagome to return."
"She is late as always."
"Well sorry for me being late yet again!" Kagome shouted.
"About time, if you took any longer we have already been on our way to find Naraku."
"Well my mother had to go buy your chips!"
"There they go again." Shippo said shaking his head.
"At times some can get confused thinking that they could be in love with each other." Sango said picking up her boomerang. Inuyasha and Kagome fell quite.
"Well let's get going." Inuyasha said walking out of the clearing of the forest.
"What's his problem?" Shippo wondered.
They all were walking until night fall. "Inuyasha it seems that there others are tried." Miroku said looking at the girls and Shippo.
"And."
"And I think we should rest here for tonight."
"But there is a house not even three yards away from us." Everyone walked a little then saw a house. "I told you."
"I am going to ask if they have any rooms." Kagome was walking but someone came out of a room.
"Oh hi do you wish to stay the night."
"I was going to see if you had any rooms."
"Well it is kind of hard to see the sign at night but this is an inn."
"Ok well then I guess we will stay the night." Kagome said very tiredly.
"Then I welcome you and your friends. I will start dinner right now; if you girls want there is a hot spring out back. And there are clean kimonos for you girls."
"Come on Inuyasha." Inuyasha was thinking but heard Kagome call him and ran to her.
-----------------
Later that night after they all had dinner and the girls got their baths. Everyone was in the same room until the inn keeper could clear out the other room.
"Inuyasha what's wrong? It seems like you have been thinking a lot." Kagome asked.
"I can smell Sesshomaru's scent but it is barely around."
"So you suppose that Sesshomaru stopped and stayed the night."
"Yeah but his scent is different."
"What do you mean?" Kagome looked at Inuyasha with confused eyes.
"I mean that it smells as if his scent has a little kindness in it." Inuyasha laughed. "How could Sesshomaru change?" Kagome was about to say something but the inn keeper enter the room.
"Are you talking about Lord Sesshomaru?" Inuyasha looked at the inn keeper. "Lord Sesshomaru saved my niece with his sword so she said. He is actually a kind man. You make him sound as if he were an evil demon."
"So your niece is a half breed." Kagome looked at Inuyasha.
"Yes, she is and she lives with a terrible curse. Lord Sesshomaru wished to help her, so they have left on their travel to find out how to remove the cursed jewel from her body."
"A jewel?" Kagome asked.
"Yes, the jewel is the sister of the jewel of four souls."
"The shikon jewel." Miroku said coming into the conversation.
"Yes, I fear for her. In a few years to come she will die with the jewel within her body. Or she could bear a child but she does not wish her daughter to suffer so."
"That is sad. For a woman to suffer so." Miroku sounded pretty stupid.
"Don't even come near my niece or I will have no problems of kicking your butt. I know about monks like you."
"What do you mean?"
"You are the monk that asks beautiful women to bear your child."
"Huh? How did you know?"
"Many women that come to my village tell everyone about a monk that has prayer beads and his right hand asks every beautiful woman if they could bear him a child. I say that do not you to ask my niece because it seems like she is in love with Lord Sesshomaru." she thought for a second. 'A monk with prayer beads on his right hand. I wonder if he is the monk that my brother in law.....no I must not think that.'
"Well that sounds like Miroku." Kagome laughed.
"So news about me is getting around fast." he thought.
"I don't know how your niece could love that demon."
"Sir Inuyasha, my niece doesn't care that he is a cold hearted demon. She loves him for his real self the heart that is kind and caring."
Inuyasha laughed. "Sesshomaru having a kind and caring heart. Now that is a laugh."
"You don't know your brother as well as you think that you do." Inuyasha turned to look at the old innkeeper.
"What are you talking about?"
"I am talking about that Lord Sesshomaru is actually kind and caring, it is just that the kind of demon that you and him are, you demons don't express you're feeling well. So you bottle it all up and pretend that you don't feel them."
"............." Inuyasha knew that the old lady was right.
"So I wonder if Inuyasha..." Kagome thought but Inuyasha looked at her.
"Well I bet that you guys are tried? Your guys' room is down the hall." The boys walked out of the room. "Good night."
"Good night." The girls said.
-------------------
Morning came fast. Inuyasha and gang were getting ready to leave. After awhile everyone was heading out the door.
"Inuyasha please hold on!" yelled the innkeeper. Inuyasha turned around. "Inuyasha please if you find Insueka give her this. She will know what it means." she handed Inuyasha a cloth wrapped gift.
"I am not a delevry boy!"
"Please I beg of you give her this. It is about her mother."
"What about her mother exactly?"
"Inuyasha stop it is none of your business!" Kagome yelled.
"She grew up knowing that her mother was dead but I found out something about my sister. She is alive. Insueka must know this." Inuyasha took the thing and then nodded.
"Inuyasha....." said Kagome.
"It is just something about mothers that makes me soft."
"Thank you Inuyasha. Insueka will be happy." the old innkeeper smiled.
They all walked off. But then after a while walking Inuyasha stopped.
"What is it Inuyasha?" Asked Shippo.
"I don't know where this Insueka is."
"The innkeeper said that she was with Sesshomaru."
"Great now I have to see my brother."
"What is so wrong about that?" Inuyasha gave Miroku a stern look.
"Sesshomaru and I don't get along....." Inuyasha smelled Sesshomaru's scent.
"What is wrong?" Kagome walked next to Inuyasha.
"Sesshomaru is near by."
"Good so we can gave Insueka her gift and be on our way to kill Naraku."
--------------------
"Insueka what is wrong?" Shinta said still in his sister's arms.
"I am not really sure but I think that Inuyasha and his friends are near by."
"It is Inuyasha alright." Insueka looked at Sesshomaru right arm.
"Sesshomaru you don't have a right arm?"
"..................." All he did was nod.
"I have just noticed it." She looked sad.
"I lost it to Inuyasha."
"I could heal it or actually give you a new right arm."
".................."
"Come here." She let go of Shinta. Sesshomaru was walking toward her. "If you could sit right in front of me." Sesshomaru did as she asked. She was chanting something and then slowly Sesshomaru's right arm was coming back. "Sorry if it painful." She whispered. He was trying to hold back the pain. She was chanting faster now. Then after a while Sesshomaru's hand was back. Insueka fainted. Sesshomaru got her. Shinta looked happy.
"I think she used all her power." Shinta said trying to hold back a smile.
"I will put her in her bed and then go to my brother." Sesshomaru didn't know what Shinta was planning.
Sesshomaru was carrying Insueka to her room. Sesshomaru felt happy because he had his right arm back.
"Insueka thank you." He whispered.
"I hope you are happy now. Now you can do things that you use to do with both hands. This is my way to repay you for everything." Insueka started to awake.
"So you are awake?"
"Yes, I wish to go with you to see this Inuyasha." He put her to her feet.
"Then if you wish to come follow me." Sesshomaru was going through the front gate. Insueka ran behind him. "I wish to get through."
"Yes, Lord Sesshomaru." The guard opened the door. Then Sesshomaru and Insueka went outside of the (I will just call it castle because it is so huge.) castle.
"Inuyasha?"
"Sesshomaru is coming and I think that it is the Insueka girl."
"Inuyasha what are you doing here?" Sesshomaru was walk toward Inuyasha. Insueka was behind Sesshomaru.
"I came to give something to a girl named Insueka. I was told to give it to her and she would know what it means."
"I am Insueka." Insueka step up to Inuyasha. He handed her the thing. "Thank you." She opened it but it fell out of her hand and she fell to her knees.
"Insueka what is wrong?" Sesshomaru said walking to her side.
"Mother, she is alive. My mother is alive." She was crying but her tears were happy. The thing was an old letter. "Shinta need to know and father....." She fell quiet.
"Come on we have done our job." Inuyasha said walking away.
"Inuyasha!" Insueka got to her feet and ran to Inuyasha. He turned around and saw her.
"What?"
"Thank you but don't kill my father. I have seen what he has done to you but Shinta needs him."
"Who is your father?"
"Naraku is my father." She said quietly.
"NARAKU IS YOUR FATHER!!!!" Everyone said shockingly.
"Yes, my father is Naraku. And I ask you Inuyasha please take my life instead of my father's. You would never understand the pain he has been going through."
"I will be glad." Miroku said getting ready to take the pray breads from his right hand. Insueka didn't move.
"Miroku stop!" Inuyasha stopped him.
"Why?"
"Tell me Insueka exactly what kind of pain is he going through." Inuyasha was in a clam tone.
"............."
"I thought so."
"Please I beg of you Inuyasha."
"He made Kikyo and I hate each other, he killed Kikyo. How could I forgive him?"
"I don't ask you to forgive him but to spare his life."
"He only cares for himself." Kagome said coming into the conversation.
"Tell me this if he only cared for himself, he won't have three children and he would not fall in love with a human."
"But he had put a curse on my family."
"If you promise to spare him I will cure your curse."
"The only way I could cure my curse is if I kill him."
"If you don't believe in my powers look at Sesshomaru's right arm!"
"Inuyasha tell your friends that this is enough, Insueka has been hurt more than you have been."
"Shut up Sesshomaru!" Inuyasha snapped.
"I know you all don't care about this but I grew up knowing that my mother was dead and my father abandoned us because of my mother's death."
"..................." Everyone was silent.
"Then I wish to go with you all to speak with my father." Insueka turned to Sesshomaru. "Tell Shinta that I am going to find Shinto. And I need you to do me a favor. Go to this place and tell her that Insueka sent you."
"I will." Sesshomaru turned and walked to the castle.
"I didn't say that you could go."
"I don't care. If I wish to go then I go. And if you have a problem shut your mouth." She headed out of the woods.
"Can we trust her? I mean she is the daughter of Naraku." Sango said.
"I think we can." Kagome said.
"But how can we?" Shippo said.
"She is a kind person who loves her father with her heart. And she wants to protect him like he protected her and her family." Inuyasha said walking out of the woods.
"Don't act like you feel sorry for me."
"I don't."
"You just sounded like it."
"I mean it I don't feel sorry for you." Insueka fell to the ground. She started to cry.
'Father how could you do that?' Insueka said to herself.
"What is wrong?"
"My father made you and Kikyo to hate each other?"
"How did you know?"
"I can read your mind and I can see your past. That is why I like Sesshomaru because I can see his heart." She smiled. "And I can tell that you are trying hard to forget Kikyo. I can also tell by the look in your eyes you love Kagome."
"I.......I........don't.....love...Kagome." Inuyasha blushed. Kagome was listening in the distance.
"Say that without blushing next time."
---------------------
"Why did she leave too?" Shinta was crying.
"Here I think that this will explain everything." Sesshomaru handed the crying boy the letter.
"It's mother's hand writing." He stopped crying and read it to himself. Sesshomaru walked out of his room.
"What is this I am feeling?" He felt like something stabbed him in the heart. "I hope that Insueka will be OK or I will kill my brother." He went into the library and started to read the book.
--------------------------
"I know that I am Naraku's daughter but I need you all to trust me. I promise I will not try to kill anyone." Insueka was standing up from where they made camp.
"How could we trust....?"
"Don't even finish that sentence! You trust Inuyasha so don't say that how can we trust this half breed." Insueka was mad.
"I trust her." Shippo said running into her arms.
"Why?" Miroku was mad.
"I know how she feels about her parents so that is why I trust her." " Thank you Shippo." She hugged the fox. "Damn it!" She got to her feet.
"What is wrong?" Shippo looked up at her.
"Kila, where are you!" Then Kila came running toward Insueka.
"She looks like Kilala but she has three tails instead of two."
"Who is Kilala?" As soon as she said that Kilala came running toward Kila. They were talking.
"I guess that I trust her. Because Kilala does then I have to trust her." Sango put down her weapon.
"Wow! They look almost look the same except Kila has three tails." She smiled.
"I trust her." Kagome said coming toward Insueka.
"So everyone trusts her expect Miroku." Miroku walked away.
"I have never seen him this mad." Shippo said watching Miroku disappear into the deep woods. Insueka got up and followed him.
--------------------------------
"I will leave if that makes you happy."
".............."
"No one is around so kill me if you must."
"...................."
"I came only because I wish to see my father again. That is all I wish to do."
"Whatever."
"Then you do not have to trust me." She walked off.
--------------------------------
As she walked back to camp she looked up at the sky. "Sesshomaru I still don't know why I am doing this." She fell to the ground. "I should have never left but there is no turning back now." She noticed that in a few weeks that the new moon will come and she would turn human again. But as she was thinking someone or something came and attacked her. Her shoulder was wounded. "Damn that hurt! Who the hell did that?" She turned and saw a wolf demon.
"I should be asking who the hell you are."
"I am Insueka."
"Koga's the name, half-breed."
"Damn it my shoulder hurts." But then she fainted.
--------------------------
Later that night Miroku returned to camp.
"Miroku, how are you feeling?"
"Where is that half-breed?"
"We thought that she was with you." Shippo said but looked at Inuyasha.
"I smell blood. Insueka's blood and I smell Koga." Inuyasha ran over into the place he smelled Insueka's blood. She wasn't there but there was small pool of her blood. Kila meowed as she smelled her master's blood.
"Inuyasha, why did you run off like that?" Kagome came running toward him. Everyone else was behind her. When Miroku saw her blood he stopped dead in his tracks.
"Just pray to god that Sesshomaru will not smell her blood or he will kill Koga."
"What, Koga did this?" Shippo was mad. He ran to Kagome. She caught him in her arms.
"We have to find Koga before Sesshomaru does."
---------------------------
Back at the castle Sesshomaru smelled Insueka's blood but it was very faint. But he also smelled a wolf demon's blood. "Insueka..........." He got from his desk and ran out the door. He went to Shinta's room. "Shinta..........." Shinta was nowhere to found in the room. Then he heard something at the gate.
"I want to leave!"
"Lord Sesshomaru said not to let the human boy out."
"But my sister is hurt. I can feel her in pain."
"I know we demons can smell her blood."
"I don't want to lose her."
"She will be fine. I will kill who ever did this to her. So just stay here and wait."
"Will you bring her back too?"
"Yes." Sesshomaru walked out of the castle.
--------------------------
Insueka got up from where she was laying. "Damn that Koga!" But her shoulder was still wounded.
"Prince Koga the half-breed is awake!" She heard someone yelled.
"Good now that you are awake." Koga came out of the shadows of the room.
"Damn you! What the hell do you want with me?!"
"You did say that you were the daughter of Naraku. Am I right?"
"Why should I answer to a low level prince such as you?" She fell onto her knees.
"Your father killed most of my pack."
"So you are going to take your revenge on me." Insueka was mad.
"I was thinking about that but I have something else in mind."
"Like what!?"
"Using you, to see if your father really cares for your safety."
"I am only warning you if Sesshomaru smells my blood's scent he will kill you." Insueka felt dizzy.
"He can't kill me. I have some shards of the shikon jewel."
"If you let me go you don't have to fight a demon at full power."
"If the thought hasn't hit you yet stupid, I am a demon."
"I AM NOT STUPID! DAMN IT!!!" Insueka shouted.
"Oh I thought you were."
"You are not being a gentleman!"
"Who said I was."
"I did! If you care about the rest of your pack, I suggest that you let me go!"
"But I don't give up or let my hostages go."
"Please I beg of you I do not wish to see your pack killed because you would not let me go."
"No, I wouldn't let you go, because you will run to Father." Koga's voice changed.
"Shin......to?"
"My name is Koga. Shinto was my old name." Insueka was shocked.
"No Shinto........." She was too shocked to say anything else. She fell to the ground and started to cry.
"This pack found me injured five years ago and so they took me in. And their leader named Koga helped me. But one day we all went to fight the birds of paradise but they injured the real Koga badly. So later he died and then the wolf pack needed a leader. So they called me Koga and I became their new leader. I hated Father for the pain he put on my new family."
"..............." She tried to say something but nothing came out.
"Are you surprised sister?"
"No, I am disappointed. And I know that Mother is too." She looked at her demon brother angrily.
"Mother has been dead for ten years."
"She is alive! I got a notice from her saying that she has been alive. But she lost her memory so she didn't know that she had a family. She got her memories back about two years ago."
"I do not believe you." Shinto walked away.
"Brother! You know inside that I am not lying." He walked over to her and slapped her across the face.
"You don't know how I feel or know that I believe you or not!"
"What happened to my big brother?"
"He died with my old life."
"Brother!" Insueka yelled as her brother walked away. "Why brother why??!!" She started to cry again.
--------------------------------
"Inuyasha!" Sesshomaru found his brother.
"Sesshomaru?!" Inuyasha turned to see his brother.
"You were supposed to protect her or did the monk made her run into the woods!" Miroku looked up.
"I didn't know that she was going to be kidnapped."
"Sesshomaru please don't kill Koga." Kagome came up next to Inuyasha.
"How am I to not to kill him. He injured Insueka and kidnapped her." Sesshomaru's eyes were about to turn red. But someone ran up to him and hugged him.
"Don't kill Shinto. I beg of you." It was Insueka.
"Insueka......."
"Koga is Shinto." Sesshomaru didn't know what to do for the first time in his life.
"Shinta wants you." He hugged her back.
"Promise me that you not kill Koga."
"I promise." Inuyasha and his friends were shocked at how Sesshomaru was reacting to Insueka.
"Insueka!" Shippo ran to her.
"Shippo!" She ran up and held the little fox. Sesshomaru noticed that her wound opened up and she was losing blood fast.
"Insueka you're bleeding!" Kagome ran up to Insueka with her first aid kit. Insueka fell forward.
"Insueka!" Sesshomaru moved forward but saw that Kagome was patching her wound.
"Sesshomaru she needs to lie in a bed until she awakes."
"Inuyasha bring you and your friends to the western lands."
"Yes." Sesshomaru got Insueka then put her on his back and ran to the castle.
When everyone got there they saw Sesshomaru's clothes had Insueka's blood in it.
"Inuyasha come with me." Sesshomaru said walking toward Inuyasha.
