Inuyasha crossover Iron Man
Chapter 15: Uncertainty
"That was some Twilight stuff going on," he managed, rather weakly as compared to his usual self, as though still trying to process what had just happened. At which he received a glare from Sesshoumaru that was enough for Tony to feel the ice seeping into his veins.
Kagome was constantly keeping a close watch on the unconscious body of Shippo on her floor as did Sesshoumaru who was least to say less than pleased at what had triggered him to go into a rage. "Stark," he directed his emotionless intense gold eyes upon the only mortal amongst them for a moment, "Have his memories clean up," Sesshoumaru said, a decision already being made, as the command was given to Kagome who said nothing about it.
"You're not brainwashing me Snow Queen," Tony Stark started angrily, obviously annoyed that his opinion or choice in that matter even matters. "These are my memories, I would like to have a say in them for the ma-" but before he could finish saying or continue on, Sesshoumaru had a hand around his throat, easily lifting him off the ground as though he was just a rag.
"Y—E—Euuuoo," he managed to choke out but instead ended up digging his nails into Sesshoumaru's wrist, struggling to take a breath. And when it felt as though he was going to faint, the dog youkai let him fall to the ground as he watched Tony crumpled down to the ground wheezing, trying to breath in as much air as possible.
Kagome knelt down beside of him, still wearing only her dressing robe, as she pressed a hand to his chest, helping him ease the breathing process with a little of her own healing powers before withdrawing her hand as she helped him up. "That was unnecessary aniki, he's a good man, this Tony Stark," she said in her native tongue, looking squarely into Sesshoumaru's eyes not at all amused by his antics.
"This Sesshoumaru does not take well to people giving us nicknames," he said out smoothly. To anyone it would have seemed as though he was talking about the weather. "Tony Stark though may be of a good partner to our companies, however, he knows too much," he continued on almost too calmly, not at all putting Tony at ease as he looked between the two, trying to figure out what they were saying.
"Give me time with him, and we will work out something, he'll not be a bother," Kagome told him as soothingly as possible, having been with the daiyoukai for so long, she worries sometimes about a lot of stupid things, now she worries for another that had managed to find a way into her heart.
"Two days," he said glaring at Tony as bent down a little to grab Shippo by the back of his shirt, dragging him out of her pent-house as the door slammed shut behind of them. It was a good thing that she had the place soundproofed, if not she would have to worry about more than just redoing her place up again.
"If it weren't for his personality I would say that he and Captain Spanks were made for one another," Tony mumbled, gathering himself as he rubbed his neck where Sesshoumaru had a strong choke home of him.
Kagome was walking around to some cardboards as she pulled out two glasses and a bottle of unopened whiskey, after what happened, she had no doubt that drinking was going to be what he needed, and she would need a little of it herself to help make approaching the now serious topic a lot easier. "Tony," she called to him seriously, a first that she had used the tone on him, and it put him somewhat on edge to hear it coming from her when just before Kagome was in bed with him crying out with such passion in the delicious voice of hers.
"We..."
"Tha-…"
They began at the same time, usually this would have been amusing to her, but not at the moment. He could see it in her eyes, the seriousness of things. Had he gotten himself into more troublesome matter again like when SHIELD had decided to suddenly care about every little thing that he did, all of the when, where, who, what and how. Tony reached out instead to help himself to the drink, grabbing it as he took a full gulp down before pouring himself another as he walked to the coffee table area. The living is a mess, and it seemed as though it could be out of a murder scene if he were to stumble in on it now, rather than to witness it.
"Tony, we have to end this, if you continue on, you will see more than just what you have seen, and be dragged into our business as well," her tone weary, tired as he looked at her, she looked older now with the way the shadows seem to have casted upon her.
"Dramatic," he piped out, taking another gulp as he kept refilling his glass. Kagome watched him take swigs after swigs, but also managed to drink down about 3 or 5 herself. "This Tony Stark is not something that you will be able to handle," she almost whispered.
"I can handle just about anything little tigress," Kagome almost smiled at the new nickname, but refrained from doing so as she tries to think of what to say.
There were too many things that now stood between the possibilities of being with Tony, and it was perhaps better not to involved him, especially after he had faced his own issues just recently. There were more to come of course with the role that he had placed himself, and if he were to be part of her life, it would be far worse. Originally she had thought that it would be a far better option to just have him around, like a friend with benefits, however, she now see otherwise. Mainly wistful thinking on her own part, after being alone for so long, and now finding someone compatible in bed is really a rarity with her, and she wanted to keep it with her as long as possible.
"I don't want you to think badly of the friendship between us Tony,"
"Friendship?" he sputtered it out in the midst of his drink, eyes wide as he look at her incredulously. "We should have been beyond that! We are beyond that!" nearly shouted it out, wanting nothing more than to shake her senseless or to maybe drag her into bed with him again to make her remember what they have between them.
"Okay, friends with benefits," she corrected herself cautiously, watching his expression as he nearly sprayed out the whiskey that he was drinking.
"We are not friends or friends with benefit, we are more than that, and you know it," he told her seriously for the first time, and it sent a shiver of delight down her spine.
He must have seen it as she felt him closed the gap between them to draw her into his arms, their lips crushing together as though it was his form of reassurance and show of proof.
"Kagome Higurashi, I am your boyfriend and you are mine, and that's not going to change until I say so," he growled out to her, hands trailing down her back as she arched in reaction a gasp escaping from her lips.
It was involuntarily, the way that she had reacted to his touches, kisses, and being, nothing much is ever going to get done if this were to continue. "Tony Stark, we need to talk properly," she gasped out again, hoping that what she had said came out to be serious, and not be pulled into the ocean with the waves that he was creating at the moment.
"Later," he mumbled into her skin, suckling at the junction where her shoulder and neck meet as his hands slipped off the dressing robe that she had adorn on. He wanted the reassurance of her being there, this was partial prove of it, and he wanted more from her, her every fiber and being. Tony was not one to take lightly when others were to touch those that belong to him or holds dear. In this current case especially with the tone of voice that he heard Sesshoumaru and Kagome had conversed in, it causes a huge stir in him. And that's when he knows that things were much more complicated than he had expected, and what he had seen was something similar to what he had formerly experienced, but not on par with, and with more deadly skills and with the skin that they wear, it made them nearly blend in with the rest of the world.
"No," she moaned out breathily as he took her breath away, he did not want to approach the subject now, not when it had just ended, he wanted to have her to himself, resume what they had missed, as he reviewed what was going on in his mind later. "Are you sure?" Tony purred huskily, bringing her nearly to her height of climax before he pulled back as he watched her face fall to disappointment and confusion of the lost.
Words were not needed and that was what he wanted for the moment (and longer), scared that this would be the last, but wanting it to last forever. He had understand earlier that he had only a few hours? Or maybe days before he wanted an answer, and he wanted to take that time to carve himself into her, but felt that there was something else that was putting him on edge, and it was not what he had just seen in the living of where they are at the moment.
"Kagome," he whispered, worry lacing in his voice, but continued to ravished her. He never gave her the chance to reply or talk to him about what he assumed in regards to earlier, wanting to only occupy her mind at the moment with more than just pleasurable thoughts, and put it into action instead.
Tony groaned as he rolled to his side, his eyes watched Kagome still sleeping form as she rest peacefully, and felt a twinge of pain to his heart at the thought of losing her. There were still many other things that his mind was processing as he got up silently, careful to not step on the destroyed items. The room was a total mess, more so than when he was doing some 'interior decorating' when he created a new element that had kept him alive until he went for a surgery after his latest fight to get rid of the shrapnels within him. He was going to propose to Pepper then, but instead, she left him before she could because of his nightmares, and the things that happened.
He dressed himself silently after a quick rinse, before leaving the penthouse, wanting to have some time to himself before she awakes and begin the conversation that she was supposed to. It might be just him running away, but he wanted to take the time to think it through, especially after what had just happened was something that if SHIELD were to find out, would complicate and maybe endanger her. Tony was conflicted, but wanted to protect her still even after what he had seen, it was almost a turn on but the situation he had to experience was not.
Kagome is a woman, one of a kind, and he knows deep down that there's always a side of Kagome that he have yet to see, but would want to. He himself had a few secrets that he was not going to tell, but with Kagome he felt the urge to, but never did, yet it seemed as though she already knows from the start and understands it. To many factors and many uncertainties put him on edge, he hated not knowing things, but yet with her, Tony knows that he will almost never know until she opens up to him.
The hotel loomed forth as he got out of the cab and stepped into the hotel's lobby, raking a hand through his hair, feeling frustrated, and needing an outlet for it at the moment. He hated the feeling, especially when he was so easily handled by the two males, they are inhuman, and perhaps even worse than he imagined. Tony knows that he could not fight against them even out of the suit, and yet Kagome was able to do so. It was a most definite turn on, but it was also almost humiliating that he would need a female to save him from what seemingly looked like two men. It too reminded him how helpless he was when Pepper was kidnapped, and now he worries for the same with Kagome after experiencing how lacking he was in protecting her against the unknown despite them being her allies and acquaintance.
Tony screamed, his frustration unable to hold it in as the hot water splash against his back causing the skin to turn red under the heat.
"Kagome," he whispered raggedly, eyes focusing on his reflection as he thought it through. He raised a fisted hand, punching the mirror multiple times, breaking it as he felt the glass bite into his skin.
The pain was numbing but he otherwise did not seem bothered by it at all. There were many other more numbing possibilities that he dare not think about or face at the current moment. And it was slowly poisoning him again.

To Spastic Freak
Hello! It's really alright, I'm really glad to see the support, and encouragement. Guess that might be another reason why I had a new chapter up so fast haha. I was rather worried that I was making the characters a bit out of character as it was. I'm so soooo glad that it was fine after reading your review, now I'm more worried about the plot being boring and the OOC of Kagome, hopefully it is not that bad. Nonetheless, I hope that you enjoy this new chapter and have a great weekend!
