Chapter 3
A week later the bells from the wall started to ring when Koga, Uh-Un, and Jaken reach the outer walls. Few hours later Koga was walking up the stairs to the palace as InuYasha waited on the top of the stairs. "Come to the palace you ugly flea bag." Koga opens the scroll and reads it out loud. "Nice to see you still read wolf breath." InuYasha said with a smile. "Must you act like this? You could had ask nicely I would have came ether way." Koga said as they walk down the hallway.
Koga stops before they enter InuYasha study and started to sniff InuYasha. InuYasha ears went down and open the door to his study. "You're dying." Koga said as they sat down. InuYasha nodded his head as Koga stares at him. "Sesshomaru is far too young to rule these lands. I don't want him to end up like my brother did. The older Sesshomaru didn't have anyone there to help him and became even colder over the years because he was all alone." InuYasha said as he pulls out a few scrolls.
"I smell an old scent that belongs to an old teacher of mine is fresh around here. William is still alive and you brought him here because he taught your brother." Koga said as he kept staring at InuYasha. "Yes it is true and once he is done teaching my son he will go back to his village. I summon you here because I really don't have that much longer to live. I want you to start taking over as the lord of the west until he is at a proper age. You don't have to if you don't want to I can find someone else." InuYasha said as he started signing scrolls and sheets of paper. "There is no one else who is still alive that you trust completely. I have helped you many times in the past and since we are friends I will do this for you." Koga said as he signs the scrolls and sheets of paper.
"Koga Sesshomaru hates me ever since Kagome died. I tried to be there for him but losing her felt like hell and now that I'm dying he will be all alone." InuYasha said as he lends back in his chair. "I know how it feels to lose a mate that you really loved. Your daughter blame herself for not able to give me any cubs but I later found out that one of the female servants have been giving her special tea so she couldn't be with my pup. I fix that problem real fast. By the time she was able to get with pup she died with the pup. Kagome really did love you InuYasha and I know that you love her too. If you never did you would found another woman but you didn't." Koga said to help lighten the mood.
"If that is the case then why did you have a full blooded wolf demon as a mate now?" InuYasha quickly responds to Koga. "Your daughter told me to. At first I didn't want to until I made a deal with the Undertaker." Koga said as he looks down. "That is the second time I heard that name. Who the fuck is the Undertaker?" InuYasha demanded. Koga look like he was about to die but ended up telling him.
"The Undertaker is a very powerful being and prefers to make deals with those who have demon blood in them. Every deal is different and magic always come at a price." Koga told InuYasha. "Magic always come at a price? What the hell does that mean?" InuYasha questions Koga. "The deal I made with her was to find me the best alpha female in the wolf tribe but the cost was really big." Koga said as he looks sad. "What price did you pay?" InuYasha asks Koga wanting to know. "The prince was my first born daughter. I didn't know until she came for the payment. I told my mate that our first born daughter didn't make it but her sister and brother did." Koga said as a tear rolled down his cheek. InuYasha felt sorry for Koga when he told about his deal.
"How did you find her?" InuYasha asks Koga. "I didn't. She finds you and when she does you do have a choice to make a deal with her." Koga replies to InuYasha. "When did you make the deal with the Undertaker?" InuYasha asks. "150 years ago but I made the payment 142 years ago." Koga replied to InuYasha. When they finish talking Koga went to his rooms and InuYasha went to his chamber. Sesshomaru followed Koga back to his rooms without anyone noticing. He slams the door shut when he enters Koga rooms he walks up to Koga. "If you are here to challenge me you will lose Sesshomaru." Koga said with a cocky smile. "Cut the bullshit wolf I overheard you and my father. Tell me where to find that bitch or else." Sesshomaru demanded. "Or else what you little pup." Koga mocks Sesshomaru. "Have anyone seen the young lord?" A guard yelled out. "Seems like the little puppy needs to be somewhere else." Koga said as he chuckles. "I will leave as soon you tell me how to contact her. I know you didn't tell me father everything." Sesshomaru demanded Koga.
"Look Sesshomaru if you over heard the talk I had with your father then you shouldn't want to make that type of deal with someone like that." Koga said. "I don't care I don't want to lose my father. If there is a way to save him then I will do anything so he can live." Sesshomaru said as he started to cry. "Sesshomaru no one knows where her castle is. It is hidden to those who seek it. Only she can find you. If you really want to make a deal then she will come but not when people are around. Please think before anything happens. Magic always come at a price." Koga said before Sesshomaru left his rooms.
Sesshomaru was locked in his room by the guards under InuYasha orders. Sesshomaru went behind a rug and went through a hidden door that InuYasha didn't know about. Masking his aura and powers he flew high in the sky quickly so he wouldn't get caught. Sesshomaru found himself at the very same spot he loves to spend his free time. A bright pink flower was floating down the river and Sesshomaru picks it up. "Did you know that your father gave you those rooms because they once belong to your almighty powerful uncle?" a female voice said out loud. "Show yourself now." Sesshomaru demanded.
A beautiful woman steps out from the shadows and Sesshomaru couldn't take his eyes of her. "What are you wearing? Women should never show that much skin out in the open. Only your mate should see you in such ways." Sesshomaru said in a proud voice. "Aw I love this outfit. Yes you are right. How about this?" The female asks as she snaps her right hand. Her clothes were now kimonos. "You dare copy the way I dress?" Sesshomaru demanded. The female cut her eyes and snaps her right hand again and instead wearing a white kimono with a red flower pattern that looks just like Sesshomaru's. She now wears solid colors kimonos that had three layers tied and two layers open.
"So you want to make a deal with me little pup." The female ask Sesshomaru. "The Undertaker?" Sesshomaru asks. The female started to laugh and quickly kiss Sesshomaru on the cheek. "I am the Undertaker also known as the blue one. I had a feeling that in this time line a young powerful demon lord wants to make a deal with the Undertaker. So tell me full demon what do you want? More power, more money, young love, a new life?" the Undertaker ask Sesshomaru as she circles him. "I don't need more power or money those never interest me. My father is dying I want you to get rid of the sickness and I don't care about the payment I will do anything." Sesshomaru said.
"How sweet the young demon dog trying to save his daddy who is a half breed." The Undertaker said as she laughs. "Don't call him that." Sesshomaru demanded. The Undertaker slams her hands together and a cloud of smoke forms around them. "Why do you look like me but older?" Sesshomaru asks when he looks at the Undertaker. "This was your uncle form at one point before he felt love towards a human girl and towards your father. Before we make a deal I will give you a freebie with no cost at promise. Care to see a part of the past of your beloved uncle or would you like to see your future? Beware if you chose to see your future it will be before you make a deal with me. Once you make a deal your future will change." Undertaker asks Sesshomaru as she touches Sesshomaru hair.
"Show me the past." Sesshomaru order the Undertaker. The older Sesshomaru smiled at the younger self and she turns back to her normal self. She kneels down and kiss Sesshomaru on the mouth. Next thing he knew was they were in a strange forest and a human child running right threw them crying. "This is one of the nights that your father turns human but tonight was the night his mother died protecting him. Sesshomaru smelled the blood since he was nearby and he followed the smell. He found InuYasha mother in a pool of her own blood and followed the scent of a human child covered in blood. By the time he found that human child it turn back into a half breed. A half breed name InuYasha." The Undertaker said as they follow the human child. She speed up time and it was the next day.
Little Sesshomaru saw his uncle walking towards his father as he was a child. Little InuYasha turns around when he felt a powerful aura out of nowhere and ran towards his older brother crying for his life but Sesshomaru backs away. "Little brother your nothing but a half breed. If you and your mother weren't so weak my father would still be here. You tainted our father blood line with your human blood. IF you ever come near this Sesshomaru you will be killed by my hands." The older Sesshomaru said as he back hands InuYasha into a tree leaving scratches across his face.
Time suddenly speed up to Sesshomaru walking towards a dead human girl body lying in a dirt road. He pulls out the tenseiga as it pulsing and slices the air around her dead body. He bends down and picks up her head as her body heals. She woke up seeing a demon holding her and smiled. "This is where he first save Rin life." The undertaker told little Sesshomaru. She showed little Sesshomaru where his father lost control and his uncle came and saved him. Another flash was when Sesshomaru lost his first love and second love. They fight he had with his son and when he set himself on fire. The next flash was InuYasha seeing the spirits of his uncle, grandfather, aunt, and grandmother. Last scene was InuYasha crying as he played with his only son.
"Why show me this?" Little Sesshomaru asks as he cried. "You pick the past remember? You saw your uncle nearly killing your father, then saved him, and started to love him for being who he is. However I never showed his past as a child to you for many reasons. If you want me to show you more then pay the price. After knowing part of the past care to still make a deal with me pup?" the Undertaker asks Sesshomaru. "I want my father to be healthy and I will pay the price." Sesshomaru said. "I would love to really but it's too late to save him from the sickness. There will never be a cured for what your father has. If that's it then I will be leaving." The Undertaker said as she started walking away.
"Wait. Is there a way to keep him alive until I'm at least 600 years old?" Sesshomaru ask the Undertaker. "Why yes there is." The Undertaker said as she pulls out a necklace. "If we make a deal he shall have this and he will not die until you are 600 years old. Once he puts it on no one can remove it but me." The Undertaker told Sesshomaru. "Deal" Sesshomaru quickly said. "Oh my dear pup magic always come at a price." Undertaker said. "I don't care I do anything." Sesshomaru said. The payment is- "I said I will give you payment just give me the necklace." Sesshomaru demanded. The Undertaker rolled her eyes towards Sesshomaru. "It has been a long time a made a deal with an Inu demon. I will give you once week and I will come and collect my payment then your father will have this necklace." Undertaker said as Sesshomaru signs a contract.
Sesshomaru finish signing the scroll he was told stand close to her and when she snaps both hands they were in the palace. "Sesshomaru where have you been you were gone for three days." InuYasha said hugging his son. Koga was with InuYasha when Sesshomaru came back but quickly pulled InuYasha and Sesshomaru away from the beautiful woman. "Sesshomaru please tell me that you didn't sign the contract with this woman?" Koga demanded the young lord. "Yes I did and she is saving father from dying so soon." Sesshomaru said as the Undertaker pulls out the sign scroll. "I will be back in seven days for my payment and you will have the necklace." The Undertaker said with a big smile. "And what is his payment you sneaky bitch." Koga demanded as he pushes Sesshomaru behind him.
"Koga the wolf prince it sure has been a long time. Your daughter is growing up to be such a beautiful wolf demon." The Undertaker told Koga as she snaps her left hand. Koga daughter suddenly was next to the Undertaker until she snaps her fingers again. "Fucking bitch I kill you." Koga said as he went towards the Undertaker. The Undertaker pulled out a fan and Koga flew backwards. "Like my fans I made a deal with a half demon for them." The Undertaker said as she fans herself. "Kagura fans" InuYasha chocked out. "Yes half breed Naraku had her fans and made a deal with me for two things." The Undertaker said while playing with the fans.
"What deal did Naraku made with you?" InuYasha asks as he stood his ground. "Oh my dear lord of the west if I tell you then what do I get in return?" Undertaker said as she walks towards InuYasha. "What do you what for the information?" InuYasha asks as he kept an eye on her. "Once a long time ago the great dog general had feelings but didn't truly love a human. With those deep feelings they got married and started a family. The threat towards the human female was so great that she was force to live back with her father just until the half breed Inu is a few months old. A human fell in love with the beautiful princess and killed her for loving a demon and bearing its children and not returning his feelings back. Even though she did love the human but only as a friend because her belong to a dog demon. On the night that the great white dog found a dragon who power was far greater thanks to me he knew that she was in labor. His eldest son wanted his swords after the fight but he never gave them up well only one to him. Denying his son his swords he then ran towards the small castle when she was in. Seeing it was on fire he killed all those in his path until he found a screaming baby next a dead human female that just gave birth. She was stab many times and bled out. With her dying breath she gave one last push and gave birth to little InuYasha. After bring back the dead human with his sword he covers both the mother and child with a special kimono that is a very rare item in any world." Undertaker told a little story.
The room stared at InuYasha as the Undertaker laughs. "You want my kimono that was made from the fire rat?" InuYasha asks as the Undertaker plays with his hair. InuYasha took off his top off and threw it at the Undertaker face. "Thank you." the Undertaker said as she puts on the robe of the fire rat. When she puts it on it started to grow even longer until it touches the floor. "Finally the robe of the fire rat is not in my hands." The Undertaker said out loud. She pins around acting like a child until she heard someone moving. "Now I have your payment. The reason why I have her fans because Naraku wanted two things. One was to know the location of a few shards of the Shikon no Tama the jewel of four souls. The second thing was to know where a miko name Kikyo was at all times." The Undertaker said. "Why did you help him? He almost killed us so many times." Koga screams out. "He wanted to make a deal with me and I accepted it. The little war you guys had with each other had nothing to do with me or the work I'm into. War, battle, and all the other crap do not interest me unless I make it so." The under taker said.
"Sounds fair enough." Sesshomaru said quietly. The Undertaker walks over to him and smile. "I was so happy that he made a deal with me since your brother was the only one who turn me down and never wanted to make a deal with him. Poor little Sesshomaru wanted to heal his father sickness that has no cure for it but this will help you from not dying until he is 600 years old. No one can take it off but me. As long I keep this necklace on you, you will never die from anything but the moment I take the necklace off you will die right then and there." The Undertaker said as she pulled out a necklace. "He made a deal with you so what does he have to pay?" Koga asks as he came face to face with her. "His payment is that in one week I will come back for Sesshomaru and he will come live with me until he turns 600 years old. So you have one week to say your goodbyes and what not. Since I am in a giving mood when he comes back I shall give you three days to spend some time together then I will get my necklace back." The Undertaker said.
"Dam it you sneaky bitch." Koga said as he pulled the Tessaiga from InuYasha side. Everyone was shock that Koga could weld InuYasha sword without a problem and pointed it towards the Undertaker. "I will be back to drop off the necklace and collect my new servant in seven days." The undertaker said as smoke covers the room. When the smoke cleared out she was gone and all eyes were on Sesshomaru.
