The carriage pulled up behind the others, waiting for its turn to unload the couple inside. The line was so long that it extended half a kilometre back down the road!
Inside the carriage, Kagome was trying to gawk at the huge castle but, Kouga's ranting kept her from it. She tried to ignore him as he started up again of how he had once saved a frog and then to all the heroic stuff (all the stuff that he thought was heroic).
The carriage inched its way to the front steps ever so slowly. It must have been an hour later when the door finally opened and a guard reached out his hand to help Kagome out.
Once she was out, her jaw dropped to the ground. This place was huge! Spires of vertical stone towered above her and walls of every height spanned out around her. The very top of this castle was hidden by wispy clouds and most of it was too vast to see.
Kouga took her arm and looped it around his. " Shall we my dear?" he asked, leading her up the steps. " I suppose", Kagome sighed, letting herself be dragged into the castle. She knew better than to object since, his 'manly' appearance would be corrupted and he would release his wrath on her. Then again, he was actually treating her like she existed so mabey this wouldn't be so bad after all. That, however was not to be the case.
~*~
Once inside, he forgot all about her. His attention was drawn to the crowd of other young lord's who were to be knighted as well. Kouga left Kagome alone and submerged himself in conversation, eyeing her to stay away.
Crest fallen, Kagome wandered through the crowd. Men came and asked her to dance every now and then but she would just wave them off. What was the point ? Kouga would see her, drag her away and sharpen his claws on her. No use in enjoying myself if I'll get beaten after.
"Hey sis wait up!"
Kagome froze at the familiar voice. Oh no. She quickly turned in the other direction and raced through the crowd. " Excuse me, pardon me", she said hastily. " Hey wait up Kagome!" What's the use? I can't keep avoiding them forever. She stopped and turned to the beaming face behind her." Hi Souta", she said blankly.
" Hey Kagome! Where's Kouga?"
"Oh, he's somewhere around here, try the crowd of men over there", she said pointing across the hall. Souta hugged her then sprinted over to Kouga, who ignored the kid. Souta ,however thought it was fascinating to be in the jerk's presence and stayed glued to the wolf demon's side.
A hand tapped her from behind. Kagome spun around to see the beaming face of her mother. Shit. "Hi dear." Mrs. Higurashi said, pulling Kagome into her arms. "Er...hi mom" she mumbled.
"Soooo...how have things been going with Kouga?"
"Fine". Kagome took on her blank look, felling quite like a robot.
" I hear he's to be knighted tonight."
"Oh yes, since his father was assonated, someone needs to rule over Caer Danon".
" True. I have a table in the dining room , lets go talk in there so we can hear ourselves", Mrs. Higurashi took Kagome's hand and pulled her into a quieter room. She sat down in a deep chair with a sigh, here we go.
Mrs. Higurashi droned on about the latest clothes and dresses. She kept asking Kagome about her relationship with Kouga and how things where going at his castle. Kagome just answered in her dull voice, sounding every bit the spoilt brat she was supposed to be. She couldn't wait until the knighting ceremony to take place.
~*~
Kouga fidgeted with his armour. It was almost his turn to be knighted. He hadn't really payed attention to any of the other men who were getting the same treatment, or the ones who where doing the knighting. To his knowledge, King Sesshoumaru was doing the knighting.
"KOUGA SON OF LORD NARAKU, COME STAND BEFORE YOUR KING!",a voice thundered into his dim-witted thoughts. He obediently stepped forward, perspiration beading his forehead.. He knelt before the mighty demon, bowing his head in respect.
" Do you, Kouga pledge to be truthful to the old code, to perform deeds beyond explanation, to die for your loved ones, to fight in battle with all of your will?" the king boomed.
" Yes your majesty", Kouga answered, bringing his right hand to rest over his heart.
" Then I shall knight thee under the name of Lord Kouga of Caer Danon". The blade of his mighty sword, Tensaiga, rested on his shoulder . The powerful waves of life drifted from the blade into his shoulder, filling him with a new strength. The sword lifted and Kouga stood, bowing his head at Sesshoumaru and then striding back into his place in line, a new airiness in his gait.
Kagome groaned as she took her place at his side, linking her arm in his. Now he would strut around and bark out orders, bossing everyone around just to please himself with the new title he had gained. She, however, would be out riding Coella or some other horse that Kouga didn't bother paying attention to. He'll also be prancing around on his big black stallion, clad in full battle armour, showing of his new possession. What a bastard, she thought bitterly.
