Ch58
The old man looked up and smiled, saying, "Oh, Sesshoumaru! How nice to see you. Let me guess, you want a new blade?"
"Yes I want one stronger than that mutt brother of mines." Sesshoumaru tells him.
"I see did you ask your father if that was okay?" he asks.
Sesshoumaru growled. "I don't need his permission now make the damn sword!" Sesshoumaru yells at him.
Totosai raised an eyebrow before grabbing Sesshoumaru's earlobe and yanking as if Sesshoumaru were a small child. "Now listen here, youngster! I won't make you this sword if you act like that. And I need this-" he trailed off, now having Sesshoumaru down low enough that he pulled out a pair of pliers and pulled out one of Sesshoumaru's fangs, making him howl in pain.
"What the hell is wrong with you?!" Sesshoumaru yelled at him as he put his hand over his mouth he never felt such pain before .
"It'll grow back in a day now this sword won't be ready for three days." Totosai tells him. "Three days!, I need it now." Sesshoumaru tells him
"I need materials and time to think if it's to be greater than Tetsusaiga and you have to promise to protect me when your father finds out." Totosai tells him.
"Yeah fine whatever, I don't know why you're scared of him." Sesshoumaru says.
"Have you not met your father?" Totosai asks.
Sesshoumaru looked at him and said, "Of course I've met my father! He kicked me out of my mother's house not even an hour ago!"
Totosai looked up at him from inspecting his tooth and said, "Well, then you should know why he's frightening. Now, you are welcome to stay here for the next three days or you can do whatever errands you need to."
"I need flowers, daises and lilies." Sesshoumaru says to him. "Oh is Lady Kagome mad at you?" he asks.
"Yes but they're not for her there for someone else." Sesshoumaru tells Totosai.
"Would this someone happen to be a priest with a baby?" Totosai asks.
"How do you know about that?" Sesshoumaru asked him.
"Everyone knows of the priest that gave birth to Naraku's offspring, many demons are already in fear of her." he says.
"Is she that strong, I saw her and she looked like a normal baby except for her eyes." Sesshoumaru says
"Well, we won't know until her first birthday. You of all people should know that," Totosai said. "Well, do you at least know where they are right now?" Sesshoumaru asked, sitting down in front of the old man.
"Lord Sesshoumaru he isn't your mate, Naraku is not one to mess with." Totosai tells him.
"Stop being afraid of him, he sold his soul to become what we're born as!, now where is he?!" Sesshoumaru hisses out.
"Totosai, don't you tell him. a small voice said. Sesshoumaru looked around and saw the flea hopping around on Totosai's shoulder.
"Myoga." Sesshoumaru growled
"Oh-ho-ho, Lord Sesshoumaru! It's so good to see you!" Myoga said, little beads of sweat on his forehead.
"You little flea, you know where they are, don't you?" Sesshoumaru said, plucking Myoga off of Totosai's shoulder.
"Lord Inutashio will not be pleased with you treating us this way." Myoga tells him.
"Worry about me your life is in my hands right now, he says as he squeezes the flea.
"It doesn't matter he'll be leaving soon." Myoga tells him.
Sesshoumaru squeezed Myoga and dropped him to the floor. "You're coming with me since you know so much." he says to the flattened out flea.
"Oh no I'm not! I'm not facing that spider!" Myoga said as he popped back up. Sesshoumaru caught him again and tied a string around Myoga and then tied it to his kimono.
"You are just like Inuyasha! Please, untie me!" Myoga said, trying to jump away.
"Shut up!, you're coming and that's final, have my sword ready when I come back Totosai." Sesshoumaru tells him and walks out the cave with a yelling Myoga.
"Let me go you selfish brat, that's why your mate kicked you out, one as lovely as Kagome having to put up with a brute like you, she has such tasty blood." Myoga tells him.
"Keep talking and I'll squash you and send your body parts back to your master." Sesshoumaru warns him
Myoga glared at him and jumped up to Sesshoumaru's neck and bit him, starting to suck out some of his blood.
"You little pest!" Sesshoumaru growled and took his hand and smacked his neck flattening Myoga.
Myoga went back to normal "Serves you right you're nothing like Master!" he says as he tries to untie the string.
"Just help me find some flowers."
"Then you'll let me go?" Myoga asks .
"No we have to find Naraku's home." Sesshoumaru tells him.
"Lord Sesshoumaru why don't you butt out before Naraku absorbs you?" Myoga asks
"Because I've known Keski and Karas since they were kids. We're family, and I need to make this right. Even though I was pissed off, I know what I did was wrong," Sesshoumaru said as he continued walking.
"Hmm so cute a little human male can make you this crazy." The flea says.
"Shut up Myoga, I was mad, I thought if I said that he wake up, but I made him sadder, and sent him into the arms of that spider, the same spider who is a thorn in my side!" Sesshoumaru tells him as the poison starts to drip from his claws.
"Eh, please calm down Lord Sesshoumaru." Myoga says to him
Sesshoumaru looked down at his claws and let the poison recede, and just said, "We need flowers. Where's the closest village?"
"I could see if these were beautiful females, it's an hour walk, please be kind when you get there these are humans you know."Myoga reminds him. Sesshoumaru clicked his tongue as he kept walking. "I am kind to humans, Izayoi is still alive isn't she?"
"That's because your father will kill you." Myoga tells him
Sesshoumaru scoffed and said, "He wouldn't be able to kill me."
"He would with that sword of his," Myoga said, looking up at him.
Sesshoumaru kept walking, he passed some women as he walked to the village. "What do you want here demon?" one of the women asked.
Sesshoumaru stopped and looked at them over his shoulder. "I need flowers I am not here to kill you worthless humans." Sesshoumaru tells them.
The woman just nodded and said, "Then you have no reason to enter the actual village. There is going to be a small path in the woods on your right. Follow it and it will take you to our flower fields."
"Wait they're pretty, didn't you use to be with a human woman, Princess Sara I believe, she had a bounty of breasts."Myoga says.
Sesshoumaru growled and walked down the small path. "Sara is dead." Sesshoumaru tells him and sees the field of flowers.
"Now I need daises and lilies." Sesshoumaru says as he looks around. "The daises are there a young woman says to him as she puts some flowers in her basket.
"Thank you," Sesshoumaru said before walking over to the patch. He picked enough for a bouquet then looked back over to the girl. "Where are your lilies?" he asked.
"Over here, "Your love is very lucky you must really love her." The girl says to him. "They're for a male." Myoga scoffs
Sesshoumaru walked over to the lilies and picked them.
"Yes she's very lucky." Sesshoumaru says to her. The girl smiled.
"Well good luck." She says to Sesshoumaru and stands up with her basket. After Sesshoumaru picked the lilies he walked out the field "Now which direction for Naraku?" he asks.
"You don't have you sword yet!" Myoga tells him
"Just tell me the direction !" Sesshoumaru yelled.
" It's a mountain okay, he's been there for a few days, but I saw him getting it ready for the last few months." Myoga tells him
"Good, now let's go," Sesshoumaru said, starting in the direction that Myoga pointed him in. "You don't have your sword!" Myoga said.
"I won't need it just to deliver flowers and chat. I will need it when I go to get them back," Sesshoumaru said.
"You were always a stubborn pup!" Myoga tells him, I wish there had been a child before you ."Myoga tells him.
"Well I am the eldest and that is the end of that!" Sesshoumaru tells him.
"What makes you think that Naraku will let you give them to those boys?"
"Stop worrying about him." Sesshoumaru tells him as he jumps from rock to rock.
"How can I not!? He's a very powerful demon!" Myoga said, jumping around on Sesshoumaru's shoulder. "You're with me, you're safe," Sesshoumaru said, continuing to jump.
"You can't control your temper around him!" Myoga tells him.
"Yes I can, I haven't strangled the snake." Sesshoumaru tells him as he keeps jumping till he jumps up on a cliff and looks over it. "How did Keski and Kohaku get away?" he wondered as he held the flowers in his hand.
Myoga shrugged and said, "I don't know, maybe they learned how to fly?"
Sesshoumaru scoffed before turning back around and starting to jump again. While he was, he said, "Kagura can fly. She uses a feather."
"Oh yes I heard about her, well that means they have a friend here." Myoga tells him "I just know Naraku is up to something besides ruling the world." Sesshoumaru tells him and jumps some more till he gets to the mountain.
"You know you can't just walk in there." Myoga says to him.
"He walked right into my mother's house, so I'll walk right into his," Sesshoumaru said, walking on a path toward the front doors.
"Such a child ." Myoga says to him as they walk up to the door. Sesshoumaru flicked the flea with his claw and knocked on the door.
"Lord Sesshoumaru why don't you leave the flowers out here?" Myoga tells him.
"So he can take credit, I think not." Sesshoumaru says to him.
Hiten yawned and walked over to the door and opened it. "S..Seshoumaru." he says in fear
Sesshoumaru narrowed his eyes at the demon and he said, "Where are Keski and Kohaku?"
"In the kitchen eating, I can't let you in , Naraku will kill me" Hiten says to him.
"What do you think I am going to do if you don't let me in?" he says as his claws start to leak poison.
Hiten gulped. "Please come in." Hiten says to him and moves out the way.
Sesshoumaru walked in and headed towards the smell of food. When he found the kitchen, he cautiously looked around the corner and saw Kohaku, Karas, and Kira sitting at the table.
Sesshoumaru walked in and walked over to Kohaku standing behind him. Kira stopped talking when he saw Sesshoumaru, "Naraku if that's you, I am going to sit you!" Kohaku yelled when he didn't hear a fall, he turned around to see Sesshoumaru." What do you want, how did you get in here!?" Kohaku yelled at him.
"I came to apologize to you and Keski." Sesshoumaru said and held the daises out to Kohaku.
"Hmph and you think flowers will make me forgive you?' Kohaku asked him.
" I am sorry for handling you that way I am sorry." Sesshoumaru tells him.
Keski looked up from the stove and saw Sesshoumaru. Kohaku was just staring at him, unsure on if he wanted to forgive him or not. "Why should we forgive you?" Kohaku finally said, crossing his arms over his chest.
"Because I was an ass." Sesshoumaru said as he looked at Keski. "I would never harm Akito, I was angry and I know I hurt you by saying those things." Sesshoumaru says and walks over to Keski holding the lilies out.
Keski looked at him but didn't say anything. "I am sorry, I admit I could have handled things better."Come on Keski we use to fight all the time, does it count that Kagome kicked me out the bedroom?" Sesshoumaru asked.
Keski gave him a small smile but didn't laugh and still didn't speak. Sesshoumaru sighed and mumbled, "I can't believe I'm doing this." He then got down on his knees and held out the flowers to Keski.
"Keski, please forgive me. Kohaku, too," he said, looking between the two males, each of the bouquets held out to the two men.
Karas chocked on his tea, Kira walked over to Karas and patted him on his back. "This has gotta be a dream." Kohaku said as he stood up and took the flowers from Sesshoumaru and smelled them.
Keski took the flowers and sniffed them. "You really are sorry your, on your knees." Keski says to him.
"Lord Sesshoumaru, your father would be proud." Myoga tells him.
"Quite you!" Sesshoumaru says to him. "So am I forgiven?" Sesshoumaru asks.
"Yes but next time you talk to us that way it's going to take more than flowers and getting down on your knees." Keski tells him.
Hiten walked into Naraku's office. "Hey how about staying in here, it's more peaceful." Hiten says as he leans against the door
Naraku looked up at him from some scrolls on his desk and raised an eyebrow and said, "What is that supposed to mean? Are you hiding something, Hiten? Have you gotten Taku pregnant already and you're not even mated to him yet?"
"No, Taku isn't pregnant, he's still my wild Kitten, he's so good in bed, let's compare notes on the cousins." Hiten says to him.
"Lets not, besides I'm getting hungry." Naraku tells him as he stands up. "
No!, you don't need to eat you need to work on your plans." Hiten tells him as he walks over to Naraku and pushes him back down in the chair.
Naraku looked up at him and said, "Hiten, what is wrong with you?"
"Nothing, you just need to work. You want to get back at that damn dog, don't you?" Hiten asked. "Yes, I do, but I can take breaks to eat or go to the bathroom, Hiten, now let me up," Naraku replied.
"You don't want to anger Keski or Kohaku do you?" Hiten said.
Naraku pushed Hiten off of him and stood up and went toward the door and opened it. Hiten picked up the bottle of ink and dropped it onto the floor. "Oops let's clean this up.." Hiten says to him.
"No, YOU can clean it up, because you spilled it. I, however, am going to the kitchen," Naraku said, starting to leave the room.
Hiten looked around quickly before slapping his hand into the ink and covering it front to back and flicked it at Naraku, getting ink all over the back of his kimono while playfully saying, "Ink fight!" Naraku stopped in his tracks and turned around, glaring at Hiten.
