Inuyasha and Shippo were walking along side a shore, feeling the ocean breeze on their faces. It was quiet peaceful and very relaxing. Shippo looks up at Inuyasha and could see that he was deep in thought. For Shippo, it was really rare to see Inuyasha like that.
"Hey Inuyasha? Are you thinking about what you want your first wish to be?" Shippo asked. Inuyasha stopped and looked at Shippo.
"Of course. I have to be very careful with my wishes though, I don't want to make any mistakes." Inuyasha said. They both sat down as they watched the ocean crash against the mountains. Shippo had a thought.
"Maybe you can wish to be with the Princess?" Shippo suggested. Shippo was really fond of the young raven haired Princess and was determined to get her and Inuyasha together. Inuyasha sighed as he laid down with his hands behind his head, his eyes searching the sky.
"I can't make her fall in love with me Shippo. Remember that's a forbidden wish." Inuyasha reminded the fox kit. Shippo looks down with a sad look. Inuyasha pats the fox kit's head with a small smile. 'He really does like her. Truth be told, I like her too.' Inuyasha thought to himself.
(Demon Side)
Why don't you go on a mate her then?
'Of course you would make a comment now.' Inuyasha growled to himself.
(Human Side)
You love her don't you?
'Of course I do, but she wouldn't want anything to do with us. Besides it is forbidden for a Princess to love a demon, let alone a half-demon.' Inuyasha's ears pinned against his head sadly.
Quit your whining and suck it up! Since when do you follow the rules of the law!?
Inuyasha sighed as he rolled to his side, leaning against his hand. 'Lay off! When it comes to her, I just want what's best for her.'
For once I have to agree with our demon side. You are what's best for her. If you love her, then man up and do something about it.
Don't be such a wuss!
Don't be such a wuss!
Both demon and human side of Inuyasha yelled. Inuyasha growled at both of them and got up from his spot. He had to admit that his two sides had a point. He needed to do something about it and be with the Princess. He fell for her the moment he laid eyes on her, and he wanted to ask her to become his mate.
"Midoriko?" Inuyasha called out to the spirit of the priestess. Midoriko appeared in front of Inuyasha with a smile on her face.
"Yes Inuyasha? What may I do for you?" She asked him. Inuyasha looked into the priestess's eyes.
"There's this girl..." Inuyasha began to explain. Midoriko frowned.
"You know I can't make anyone fall in love Inuyasha." Midoriko reminded him. Inuyasha shook his head.
"No that's not what I meant. She's always on my mind... I fell for her when I first laid eyes on her. She was the most beautiful woman in the world with beautiful raven hair and warm chocolate brown eyes. Her scent was so amazing, it was the scent of lavender and vanilla." Inuyasha described to Midoriko.
The Priestess smiled as she watched the love struck hanyou. She saw his mood change and his ears droop.
"But she's the Princess, she wouldn't want anything to do with me unless..." Inuyasha perked up a bit as an idea came to mind. He looked at Midoriko.
"Can you make me a Prince?" Inuyasha asked in a hopeful tone. Midoriko pondered this for a moment and smiled with a nod.
"Is that your wish Inuyasha?" Midoriko asked him. Inuyasha smiled and nodded.
"I wish to be a Prince." Inuyasha said. Midoriko smiled as she waved her hand. Spiritual energy began to flow to Inuyasha as his appearance began to change. His hair was jet black and tied into a low ponytail and his eyes were dark brown. He was made to look human to the villagers. His clothes changed into royal clothing. He wore a white haori with gold and red embroidery and his obi was red and gold. A black chest plate was around his chest that had two red tassels on each side at the top. Two iron like shoulder plates set on top of his shoulders and had three spikes on each.
Inuyasha was quite impressed with the work that Midoriko had done. He looked like a strong Prince that was worthy to protect the Princess, he was surprised that the armor didn't weigh him down though. Midoriko smiled.
"You may look human to everyone, but you still have your demon strength and speed. You are already royalty because of your bloodline Inuyasha, I just helped you look more like royalty." Midoriko smiled. Inuyasha looked down with an angered expression.
"If only everyone else saw that in me. Just because I'm a half demon, they think that I shouldn't be allowed the title of royalty. So I've been living on my own along with Shippo." Inuyasha explained. Midoriko placed a hand on Inuyasha's shoulder with a smile.
"Well, here's your chance to show them what you can do." Midoriko said with a wink. Inuyasha smiled with a nod. Soon him and Shippo began their walk back to the village.
"Oh! Before we head back, let's do a few more things to prove that you are royal." Midoriko said with a smile. With a wave of her hand, servants and valet's began to show up out of no where. Then he had some of his own royal guards. Inuyasha was smiling as he saw everything that he ever dreamed about. Midoriko saw the young fox kit and transformed him to make him look more older. He looked like he was 18 now. His fire orange hair reached down the middle of his back and he had on a dark blue haroi with orange embroidery and his obi was black and orange. Shippo was given the role of Second in Command of the royal palace. Shippo smiled as he stood next to Inuyasha.
"Wow Shippo, you look different." Inuyasha stated as he got a good look at the fox kit who no longer looked like he was 7. Shippo chuckled.
"You look different too Inuyasha." Shippo stated with a deeper voice that didn't belong to a child anymore. Midoriko smiled as Inuyasha hopped up onto a two tailed neko demon he decided to name Karo. Karo was a bluish-grey two tailed neko demon with bright icy blue eyes and bright icy blue stripes on his two tails and the tips of his ears were bright icy blue. Karo wore a golden charm around his neck stating that he was the royal transportation for the young Prince.
"Now you're ready Prince Yash." Midoriko smiled her approval. After making sure that everything was in order, Inuyasha and Shippo started their way back to the village.
