DN Angel crossover Inuyasha
Chpt24: Just the Beginning
Kagome POV
"…Princess…Princess…" drifted someone's voice. I can hear the warmth and gentleness in it and the soft shake of someone waking me up.
Groaning softly, I stirred and snuggle into the warmth, and then I heard someone whispering into my ears so softly that it was almost drowned out by the sound of the jet.
"We could do get to know one another more…closely…though you don't want to find yourself in a rather upsetting predicament with your other friend and staff here on board with us." He whispered huskily, tickling my sensitive ears.
Snuggling against him, I felt coldness yet feeling warmth at the same time as I felt my neck being licked. A soft moan escaped my mouth that was soon covered up by a warm lips, slowly opening my eyes, I saw Dark kissing me. Softening, I returned his kiss with the same passion to match him. It was only when we heard Pip stirring that we broke apart reluctantly while he still held onto my hand. The sound of Pip loudly yawning as he stretched in his chair was heard by the both of us.
Looking out of the window, I informed them that we will be reaching Azumano in about 5 minutes time. On our arrival, the whole of Daisuke's class was there waiting for us to get out before bidding us goodbye. When they turned around however, they were stunned and without doubt I can assure that.
There right before everyone's eye stood Sesshoumaru. Wearing a pair of black tailored pants and a black business shirt, he had on a silver tie and his black jacket was drabbed over his arm. The chauffeur held the door opened for him bowing to the respectable Sesshoumaru.
"Kagome." He said out in greeting nodding towards me while he cast a cold glance towards Pip and he focused his eyes on Dark before settling back on me. From the look that he gave me, I know instantly that I was to follow him. Walking towards Daisuke, I asked him to help bring back my luggage with him which he agreed. His eyes held curiosity regarding about Sesshoumaru who appeared before everyone's eye.
Smiling, I told him that I have to go while Dark and Pip silently followed me. The rest of everyone was cut from my view as I entered the limousine and heard it slammed shut after the last of the three of us got in.
"Aniki, why the sudden appearance here in Azumano?" I questioned him while he inspected Dark and glancing from between the two of us with a rather hard look.
"This Sesshoumaru wants to know why you have the scent of another on yourself." He demanded coldly.
Looking at Dark, he smile at me and replied on behalf of both of us.
"I am currently courting her if you do not object to this Sesshoumaru." He said politely yet there is confidence in his voice.
"We shall see about this." He replied with equal calmness and coldness.
"To what do we owe you this honor Sesshy?" I asked him in a bored manner. I saw his death glare though I am used to it. It is his way of showing his annoyance for calling him like this every time.
"Your training begins immediately and as for you Pip, you are going back to Hellsing now. And as for you, Phantom, you are to go through training." He ordered all of us with a tone that no one is to defy him. I smell the scent of Pip's fear slowly sipping into his normal scent of the Undead, cheap cologne, tobacco and the other chemicals that made up his cigarette.
Dropping Pip off at a private airfield, and we drove off to where he currently took up resident in a hotel nearby where I am currently staying. When we were in his suite, it was spacious and no doubt not really up to his standards. When he said that we were going away for a few days to train, I called to Aunt Emiko to tell her of our plans for the next few days and not. It did take a good few minutes longer to Sesshy's annoyance before were we ready to leave.
He being the almighty and powerful demon lord that he is also has the abilities to open up portals to anywhere that he like. As long as he visited the place once or able to visualize the place then he is able to open up the portal unlike me. Once he was through, Dark and I followed behind him silently to stand before the castle that is all too familiar to me. His instructions were clear and precise and also telling the both of us that the time here has been altered by him for up to about 10years to one day here in his castle compared to the period where we just stepped away from.
To us demons 10years pass by very swiftly and is more than enough time for us to train for the upcoming battle that we will soon face. With us separating to go to our on rooms, we were expected by him to prepare and be in the dojo in less than an hour. Dark, whose room was a hall away from mine, came to my room and knocked politely before he entered. And as usual my room is also personalized to my liking being that Sesshy legal in the demon way my brother and has allowed me to.
"You will get use to Sesshy, even though he is cold and distant and perhaps the worst trained that you will ever get, but he is caring in his own ways. Though there is of course this other thing, and that is the respect and view he has for you are to be earned. Though prepare yourself for the training." I told him as he gave me a rather grim look on his face. In his eyes, determination shone and the dreading of it.
"I guess we better be going then Princess, Sesshoumaru is expecting us." He said rather reluctantly as he threw a few glance at my bed. Hitting him gently on the arm, he gave me a warm smile while catching my hand to place a kiss upon my lips.
"That is for luck." He whispered to me. Even though I have been kissed by him various times and enjoyed it, he is still able to make me blush from his kisses. Making haste, we made it to the dojo in time and saw Sesshoumaru entered. He is in his youkai form and dressed in the same attire as the first time I saw him the glorious demon lord of the West.
Nodding to us, he drew his own sword and waited for us to follow suit. Summoning mine, I saw Dark withdrawing a feather. He stood there eyes closed and both of us sense his aura flaring for a while before returning to normal. The feather glowed with a light lilac white color before transforming into a sword of western styling. The blade has an inscription and the hilt of the blade was shaped like a normal fencing sword with metal wings.
Without any warning from Sesshoumaru, he began his first attack. The few rules he taught me before, never let your guard down. And I learned that the hard way after being slashed by him in a few places. He was swift and precise with each of his attacks. Swinging my sword to block his attacks, I soon fall into rhythm and matched his slowly increasing speed. It was a miracle that Dark could keep up and not sustain much severe injuries yet.
When Dark got a rather gushing wound on his arms and the side of his waist, I grimace in memory of how the Shikon no Tama was taken away from the side of my body in the past. Sesshy stopped his attacks when he saw Dark kneeling on the floor clutching his side as blood slowly soaked his dark clothes a darker shade. The irony scent of his blood filled the dojo, invading to our sensitive nose. Going to him, I brought him to sit against the wall of the dojo while tending to his wounds. Resting a glowing hand over the gash at his side, the healing process starts. When most of his wounds are healed, Sesshy waited for me patiently to finish off the spar that we had started.
Standing before Sesshy, we picked up from where we left out. Dark sat there resting his head against the wall while watching us spar. I could hear the pounding of my heart as adrenaline rushed through me, we picked up our rhythm to a much faster pace appearing as flashes from time to time while most of the time seemingly disappeared and leaving strong winds in certain areas of the large and spacious dojo.
If one were to look more closely, one could clearly see the air pressure of the area as dust particles and the fine dust created from the wooden flooring move to clear the area whereby Sesshoumaru and I are fighting. Now with cuts adorn on the both of us with slash marks in our clothes, our spar soon came to an end as some of the cuts and shallow slashes cause the blood on our body to seep through our clothes too. Panting, the both of us bowed to one another calling an end to our training and an end to our spar that both our skills are rival to one another.
Sheathing both of our swords, he walked out of the dojo with grace leaving Dark and I alone in the dojo. Dark who saw the whole fight was rather stunned at our pace as it was much faster than the pace he has been sparring with us the whole time. Smiling, I walked up to him checking the healing of his wound. There is only so much that my miko healing powers can do and it does not often easily heal wounds that was caused by a demon to heal as fast as one would anticipate. His wounds are now starting to heal just like a normal demons' healing constituency. This is rather shocking to me as I remember him not being a demon and neither is he a human exactly. He is after originally created by the Hiwatari bloodline.
However since the time I meet Dark and gave him his own body, he is now able to live a normal life. Well a normal live like the way everyone is living except with the addition of lots of other skills. Seeing him trying to get up and with a little difficulty, I helped him up after calling away my sword which disappeared when I slice the sword through the air and saw the sword as though taking a life of its own disappeared into a white portal that glimmer only slightly.
Slinging one of his arms over my shoulder, he stood to lean his weight against me as his winced from the pain. As we both swayed to the side, due to lack of energy on my part and the extra weight belonging to Dark due to him being wounded the most on his side and other parts of him too.
His breathing came out rather short and uneven but that is mostly due to the effort it took for him to walk back to the castle with his remaining strength. I myself am spent and tired from the training not long with Sesshy. By the time we reached his room, I placed him in the bed while I went about getting herbs and bandages to properly treat his wounds.
With a washbasin full of water, I took the damp towel and started cleaning him up first before even properly treating him. He was already asleep by the time I was done washing cleaning him, wrapping his wounds with utmost care, I left his room quietly when a servant told me that dinner was served.
Sesshoumaru was there waiting for me patiently, and gave me a look demanding as to why I have not changed before dinner. Explaining to him that I had to care for Dark's wounds, he looked at me for a few more seconds before motioning for me to take the seat on his left. Dinner was quiet brief and fast while before that, I had the servants to bring me an extra set of meal to my room about 10 minutes later. Excusing myself, I left to take a bath myself. When I came out of the springs, the food was set on the table at my bedside.
Taking the tray after securing the sash tie around my plain blue with silver designs yukata, I started to make my way to Dark's room with the food. Cautiously opening the door, he still lay there on bed in a slumber. Setting the food down on the table beside of him, I hear him starting to stir awake.
Bending over him, the soft glow of the light by his bed side cast a soft glow shadowing me as I bend over him. He eyes slowly opened to reveal his stunning deep purple eyes that shone through the even in the dark from my current view.
"Hey, how are you feeling? I brought dinner up to you." I whispered softly for some unknown reason.
Seeing him smiling back softly, he propped himself up against the back of the bed while I place the tray on his lap. All the while I could feel his gaze upon me as I moved about.
"You better eat the food to regain your strength." I said
"Feed me," I heard him said in a soft gentle tone with his soft gaze.
Not sure why I am doing exactly as he said, my hand moved on their own, feeding him and fussing over the way he eats like a mother. It reminds me of how I will sometimes feed Shippo back in the Feudal Era. When his dinner was done, I went out of his room with a light blush still on my face, carrying the now empty bowls and plates on the tray.
Only to return to his room with a cup of medication to heal his wounds, sooth sores that he will receive the next day and at the same time replenish the amount of blood he had lost today. Seeing an empty bed, I looked around, and saw the door leading to the balcony to be opened. Walking out, Dark stood there watching the star smeared sky.
"Dark, you shouldn't really be out of bed, you have lost quite some blood from earlier." I pointed voice filled with concern. Placing the cup of medicine on the table inside of his room, I went out to stand beside of him.
"It is so much more peaceful here." He said watching the surroundings.
"In appearance wise, though there is so much that Makai has to offer when it comes to adventures, the simple life, and dangers of all kinds." I said watching the tree foliage that stood in our view. Makai in fact have not much difference from the Feudal Era and that is how I like it.
"You ought to lie in bed, go back in and lie down." I said watching him tear himself rather dejectedly away from the balcony to slide back into bed waiting for his next order. Chuckling softly, I went to sit on the edge of his bed while bringing to medicine up to him.
"Drink," I saw him looking at the cup then up at me with a look that says he does not want to drink it.
"If you want to feel better tomorrow morning and not feel all the aches then drink. Can't have you bleeding yourself to death all over Sesshoumaru property and not be alive to say sorry to him." I said with a little dark humor there which he raised an eyebrow. Though in his eyes, they show that he definitely do not want to go through the pain of being slashed by Sesshoumaru.
Quietly in his mind, the thoughts that went through was that he definitely will not die and continue to train in order to be strong enough to protect Kagome. It is especially that he wants to be with her always and his love for her is one that is going to keep him going on.
Seeing him taking the cup of medicine from my hand, he started to drink them down. Taking the now empty cup from him and placing them by the bedside, I felt myself being jerked back as lips descended on mine. The taste of the medicine was in my mouth and I drank them down unknowingly, instead of ending his kiss, his tongue continues to explore my mouth. Lighting biting down on his tongue, I could taste his blood in my mouth though only for a second then it was gone. His blood tasted sweet making the blood in my veins to sing with such sweetness. His withdrew slowly licking my lower lips and biting down lightly to lap the tiny droplets of blood that formed.
Seeing his eyes in the darkness sparkled even more brightly tonight, I heard the rapid beating of our hearts in unison. I could hear the pounding sound of my blood in my ears while he pulled me down to his chest to lay there. Closing my eyes, I listened to the comforting sound of his heart beating in my ears while he tucked my head just beneath his chin to slip his hand around my waist to prevent me from leaving his side.
Letting out a contented sigh, I felt him picking me up to lay beside him while he drew the blanket over the both of us. Lulled to sleep by his comforting scent and the sweet melody that his heart sang only to me, I fell into blissful darkness.
A/N: I updated! By the way I am going to change my pen name by the next chapter or perhaps earlier. The story title will still remain the same. I need to be off studying now!
