Chapter 28
The look Sesshoumaru gave his mother was the look of death, he could not believe that Arisu still tempted his patience in regards of Inuyasha. “Mother when I want your opinion I will give it to you until then I recommend your mouth be sealed the rest of the evening.”
Sango and Miroku were surprised at how short the wedding considering the ordeal took less then 20 minutes. Everyone’s questions were answered, about the shortness, when Inuyasha spoke. “Now if I understood it correctly we will be going into the hall and I will be presented to the lords as Sesshoumaru’s chosen mate. Hopefully everything will go well.”
“What do you mean Inuyasha? Why wouldn’t things go well?” Miroku had a look of concerned look on his face as he spoke considering there was easily over a hundred extremely strong demons in the over in the hall, stronger then most demons they had ever battled one on one.
Sesshoumaru was glad to answer the monk’s questions he already knew all to well what was going to happen. “The lords have an opportunity to challenge Inuyasha as my mate saying that he is not worthy of the entitlement that comes with being a new lord or even worthy to rule our father’s land since he is only half pure blooded.”
Sango was shocked she had assumed since they had a ceremony that they were officially together therefore no one could dispute their bond. “What do you exactly mean by challenge? I thought you two were official and there is nothing they could do to challenge it, especially since you are pregnant Sesshoumaru?”
Inuyasha dreaded Sesshoumaru’s response for he knew what it was going to be, Jaken had given him a run down of what was going to happen, mainly how things were going to differ from Koga and Ayame’s marriage. The one thing that Jaken emphasized was the fact that any demon could challenge him and it would be for the simple fact of his demon blood and if he did get challenged it would be a one on one duel maybe to the death.
“Well Sango if any of the demons chose to challenge Inuyasha or myself then we would then have to prove our choice. In simplified terms a battle to the death with each other, it would be extremely unfortunate if they challenge me for it is a sheer strength battle, no weapons of any sort including my Whip of Light and well I am still not quite fully recovered considering my arm has not fully grown back.”
The look in little Rin’s eyes concerned Sesshoumaru but before he had a chance to comfort her Jaken spoke. “My dear girl have no fear Lord Sesshoumaru does not need weapons to show his strength to those lowly demons in the hall and Inuyasha will be fine considering what he is so don’t worry anymore.”
Inuyasha was fueled by the rage of what Jaken had just said. Inuyasha looked at Sesshoumaru as his older brother just simply nodded. Inuyasha’s unbound hand came flying down and whacked Jaken dead center on the head, the lump quickly formed from the force of Inuyasha’s fist.
Shippo leaned over and whispered into Jaken’s ear, “Hurts like hell doesn’t it, and Inuyasha is quite skilled in the thumping of the head, isn’t he?” Jaken just groan at the fox demon had said to him. “Well if we have no more questions then it is time to present the two of you to everyone as the lords of the western land.” The priest instructed the wedding party as he lead the way followed by Sango and Miroku, Shippo and Rin and the last was Jaken and Arisu. Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru waited a few moments before they exited. “Inuyasha are you sure you are ready to fight because I have a sinking feeling that you will be challenged and Tetsusaiga is put away I will not be able to interfere.” Inuyasha could see the concern in Sesshoumaru’s eyes as he spoke.
Inuyasha knew he could not convey how scared he really was, for if he lost it would mean losing his life or worse Sesshoumaru and their unborn child. The thought of not being there for his own child like his father was too much for Inuyasha to handle and he knew no matter what he would win any of the challenges that came his way.
Using his still unbound hand Inuyasha rand his claws down Sesshoumaru’s markings. “Sesshoumaru I will do anything to protect what is mine, you are my mate and you have our child I will do everything in my power to save everything that we have built together, I will be with you always and I will protect our child no matter what.”
The love that spoke through Inuyasha’s words warmed Sesshoumaru to the core as his fears were starting to melt away. “I know you will Inuyasha, I am just making sure that you know what is ahead. Now that I have you I do not know what I would do without you, I need you Inuyasha and I cannot be without the happiness that you have brought into my life. I guess if there is nothing else we should probably be going in there now we should have been announced by now.”
As soon as Sesshoumaru turned to walk away Inuyasha grabbed his hatori and brought his lips down to press against his own. Sesshoumaru ravished the feeling of having his little brother’s lips against his own. Sesshoumaru ran his tongue along the length of Inuyasha’s lower lip asking for entrance as soon as Inuyasha felt Sesshoumaru’s tongue he quickly opened his mouth and began the battle over the dominance in their kissing.
Once Sesshoumaru was fully harden he also felt the lack of oxygen in his lungs and to unfortunately pull away from the warm crevice of Inuyasha’s mouth. “As I mentioned earlier my love we should probably go inside and get all this over with the quicker we do that the quicker we can go and consummate our marriage.” With a heavy huff he waited for Sesshoumaru to lead him the way to the hall.
Sesshoumaru made quick work through the garden to the side entrance of the hall. “Are you ready Inuyasha?” with a nod of the head Sesshoumaru was leading Inuyasha into whatever may come there way.
“Presenting your Lords of the Western Land Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha.” Silence went through the hall as Inuyasha’s name was said. None of the demons could believe that the great Lord Sesshoumaru would have chosen a male to help him rule the kingdom and once Inuyasha followed behind Sesshoumaru and the demons had a chance to see him the mass of demons were outraged that Sesshoumaru had chose a half breed.
Once seated Sesshoumaru looked over all the different demons and he could see the clear disgust that was on there faces. He knew that all of the lords did not approve of his choice, he still did not care about any of them he was happy and was also carrying one of the only lines of dog demons left.
“If any of you would like to go against my decision speak now and we will gladly handle this situation, if you chose not to speak then I will take it as all of you approve and we will continue with the ceremony. So here is your chance any takers?” Sesshoumaru spoke confidently even though he knew that there would be a few takers, he did not expect as quick of a response that came.
“I will be the first to challenge your half bitch of a demon, I can smell the worthlessness human blood in his body and I will not allow our titles of lordship to disgraced by him a lowly mutt.” All eyes went to the lizard ruler, Aniki. He was not a predominate ruler but he was the one in charge of all the lizards in the south and so Sesshoumaru respected the rules and had invited him to the ceremony.
Inuyasha unbound his hand from Sesshoumaru and looked at the demon that spoke the challenge. “So you will be the first that challenges me, well I gladly accept. You should mind your tongue by disgracing my heritage you in turn insult Sesshoumaru.”
All eyes went from the lizard ruler to Inuyasha for they were unable to figure out why insulting this half demon would by an insult to Sesshoumaru. “To answer your questions I am the son of Inu Taisho born of human blood but still the half brother of your Lord Sesshoumaru. So Reptile if you are ready to unarm yourself lets begin all the fun.”
Shippo finally understood why there was a 200 foot gap in between there table and where the other demons were seated. Aniki made quick work of removing his sword and armor plate before he reached the side he chose of the opening.
Inuyasha removed his top and handed it to Sesshoumaru. “I do not want to damage this Sesshoumaru, would you please hold it for me my dear brother I will be back momentarily.”
“Inuyasha do not underestimate him for he is trickier then you would think.” Inuyasha leaned down and placed a chaste kiss on Sesshoumaru’s lips. “I will my mate.”
Inuyasha proceeded topless down to the opposite side of the opening eyeing up the challenger. Aniki was easily twice the size of Inuyasha and was probably 1 ½ feet taller then him. If he had not been standing upright he could have easily been mistaken for a komodo dragon with an elongated face and a 4 foot tall. “I am ready when you are mutt bring it on.”
With that statement Inuyasha, topless, charged at Aniki only going at half speed just to test the lizard. Inuyasha’s claws were out ready for blood but Aniki easily blocked Inuyasha’s attack only causing minor wounds on the lizard’s side. Everyone gasped at Inuyasha for as he passed by Aniki whipped Inuyasha with his tail dead across the back causing a 2” gauss. The only sound that could be heard in the hall was the sound of Inuyasha evilly laughing. “Please tell me you have more then that snake.”
Aniki flashed red at Inuyasha’s insult of calling him a snake, the biggest insult a reptile demon could receive is being called a different breed. “You will pay for that insult half demon.” Aniki from his claws released 5 fireballs at Inuyasha. Although the attack was slow enough for Inuyasha to dodge, he stood still and took the full blast on his naked chest.
“Oh Aniki that is cheating I had higher hopes from someone who is supposedly a powerful demon. I was not going to use any of my powers but since you insist I will gladly show you what this half breed can do.”
Sango had never seen Inuyasha bleed like that, the only time he even came close was when they battled Naraku or Sesshoumaru. During those battles Inuyasha had always been protected by his fire rat robe and also the protection of transforming by the Tetsusaiga.
Sesshoumaru could see that Inuyasha’s friends were starting to worry about him and Sesshoumaru knew he had to do something to comfort them. He clasped Sango’s hand and spoke quietly words that he knew were comforting for him. “Do not fear if Inuyasha is even close to death he will transform and during our battles I had some power of helping Inuyasha not completely allow the demon side to take over. Have faith in him I know he will handle this situation.”
A pulse was felt throughout the room and the menacing laugh that came from Inuyasha was even louder then before all the demons could sense the change that was being taken before their eyes. The process became quicker for Inuyasha considering he had transformed earlier this week. Aniki was surprised that the half demon could actually fully transform he was overwhelmed by the throb that could be felt throughout the room as his claws and fangs finished growing, Inuyasha’s wounds were already healed and his eyes were red.
“Well Aniki do you not want to play with me any more cause I still want to play you.” Aniki was a little shaken by the tone in Inuyasha’s voice for it grew cold from what it original tone. Sesshoumaru sat almost proud of his Inuyasha’s transformation although he knew the risk if he was not able to control it. Everyone in the hall could be massacred quite easily if Inuyasha choose to do such a thing. Sesshoumaru knew he had to be sure that the situation would not get out of hand as he sent Jaken to go and fetch Inuyasha’s sword just in case.
“You may have transform Inuyasha but I will still be the one who takes you down.” Aniki was trying to keep up with the sternness in the voice as Inuyasha portrayed. Aniki decided to go onto the attack and make the first move on Inuyasha. With his claws in flames he came running at Inuyasha already aiming at his neck. Everyone was horrified by the simplicity of the move Inuyasha made as he ripped through Aniki’s chest holding his heart through his back. “Well that was easier than I expected” Inuyasha pulled his arm, still holding the heart, back out of Aniki’s chest it was still beating in his hands.
“Who is next to challenge me I welcome all offers and well hell that just put me in a good mood to play?”
The look Sesshoumaru gave his mother was the look of death, he could not believe that Arisu still tempted his patience in regards of Inuyasha. “Mother when I want your opinion I will give it to you until then I recommend your mouth be sealed the rest of the evening.”
