Another one of my favourites, a longer one this time
The Hunt
"Yaammazaaakkkiiii..."
mentioned fox groaned and sat up in the bed being careful not to jostle his mate awake. "Yaammaaazaaakkkiiii." The voice was quiet and the word drawn out, the tone was similar to the one Kagome used when calling to his son when he was hiding under a bush and she was enticing him to come out. "," it lasted a full seven seconds this time, it sounded as if it was right outside his bedroom window, not that that made any sense, "come out, come out wherever you are," ridiculous, surely it was obvious where he was. He shook off the last vestiges of sleep and then recognized the voice, it was Hiro. The seemingly playful mood he was in contrast to his usually stern demeanour was somewhat disturbing.
"I'm asleep Hiro," he said in normal volume, knowing he could hear him, wherever the cat was, "come back later."
"Awwwwww, but we've already waited for hoouurrs," came the normal volume answer in a playful childlike whine.
Growling he got up moved to the window and threw it open in irritation. Hiro was sitting there lotus position on Sesshoumaru's ki cloud with a wide grine on his face while the prince just stood there himself arms folded looking annoyed at being kept waiting.
"Waited for what?" He growled, his irritation growing. He heard shuffling behind him; Kagome was waking up in the absence of his body heat beside her.
"You of course!"
"Why."
"We guessed you'd forgotten, you have other things to keep you busy," he gave a pointed look at Kagome and Yamazaki's irritation grew further still. "Our yearly hunt," he answered anyway, "you, I and Sesshoumaru in the forest, the same hunt we've been on the past two centuries, don't blow us off for the first time in history."
He was right, he had forgotten. "Hmm, let me think, trekking through the wilderness hunting deer with you or sleeping with my mate, which would I prefer?" He thought out loud sarcastically. It wasn't his fault neither of them had a woman yet.
"Come out of your own accord," Sesshoumaru said quietly in a deadly serious tone, or be dragged out of your bedroom window by your ankles." Yamazaki knew that this was no idle threat, to be fair it would not be right of him to abandon them now, the hunt was an ancient tradition of theirs, it simply wasn't something one skipped.
He looked back at Kagome; she could survive without him for a week surely. "Fine," he acquiesced, but let me explain the situation to my mate first," he wondered if it was meant to feel and sound so good to say that. That done, he threw on a light kimono and jumped out the window landing on Sesshoumaru's youki, leaving Kagome snuggling into the last vestiges of his body heat on the sheets. "Do this again without an adequate excuse and I'll kill you."
Yamazaki was not one to make threats, but Hiroki and Sesshoumaru decided not to crack a joke about this one, they'd never a seen a demon so protective of his mate.
