Chapter 11 : Revelations

Ban listened intently.

Sesshoumaru simply stared at the Hanyou for a few moments. Inuyasha found the silence unnerving. Sesshoumaru was looking at him like he had never seen him before. Though nothing in his face or demeanor said so, Inuyasha got the distinct impression that Sesshoumaru was nervous. Somehow the idea that Sesshoumaru was nervous added to the Hanyou's own nerves. He began to fidget.

“Keh, get on with it you arrogant bastard!” Inuyasha burst out. “If you wanna stare get someone to draw you a picture!”

The Daiyoukai raised a brow, and slowly began to speak. “Hanyou, you will do me the honour of being silent until I finish. In two weeks you will reach your maturity, and the spells placed on you by my father while your mother carried you will finally fade. This Sesshoumaru could wait till then for the truth to be know, that is what I originally intended. But in the last month.. certain events, have forced this Sesshoumaru to reconsider that idea. And it is mayhap best that you hear it from me, instead of discovering it for yourself.”

Inuyasha frowned suspiciously at his brother. This was really, really weird. “Wait a minute, a spell, there is a spell on me? Father put a spell on me, while I was not even born yet why? What kind of fucking spell was it!”

“Hanyou you will refrain from displaying such poor manners in my presence.” Sesshoumaru growled out.

Inuyasha blinked, his jaw dropping.. what the hell... was Sesshoumaru brain damaged? Should they 'politely' try to whip each others asses the next time!

Sesshoumaru sighed at the look. “The spell is a simple spell, it involved altering your scent just a little bit. Due to shared bloodlines, no one not of the family could detect the spell.”

“Why the hell would father need put a spell on me that changes my scent? Sesshoumaru you are not making much sense here!” Inuyasha said impatiently wanting the Daiyoukai to get on with it.

Sesshoumaru took a deep breathe, and plunged in. “He had to change your scent, so that you would smell like his son. He wanted everyone, including you, especially you, to believe that he was your father.”

Inuyasha went pale. He felt his anger rise. Ban's fist clenched, he felt a sinking in his stomach, he had an inclining as to where this was going.

“You know Sesshoumaru, that is rather low. We met father, he acknowledge me, your jealously of father is getting rather lame, even for you.” Inuyasha bit out. “You yourself said he the spell worked because of blood, I am not as stupid as you seem to think.” The Hanyou growled. He was going to turn but Sesshoumaru's next words froze him in place.

“The spell worked, because he was your Grandfather, not your father. He claimed you as a son, but in two weeks it will be abundantly clear that you are not the son of InuTaisho, you are his Grandson.” Sesshoumaru's voice was quiet, but the words hit Inuyasha hard.

Inuyasha's eye's widened, his fists clenched. “InuTaisho claimed the son of some brother of yours as his own child.” He just managed to choke out.

Sesshoumaru's own fists clenched, he looked down seeming unable to meet the flat golden eyes glaring at him. “No, this Sesshoumaru, has no brothers, I only have one, very brave, very courageous.. son.”

Inuyasha's vision clouded, Sesshoumaru's quiet words beat into his brain. “No, no, you will not do this! You will not steal father from me and in the same breathe STEAL MY BROTHER! You will not do this!” Inuyasha did not hesitate, nor did he draw Tessaiga, instead claws growing long he attacked the DaiYoukai recklessly.

“Shut up! Shut up! YOU will Shut UP!” Inuyasha's attacks were wild, Sesshoumaru did not retaliate, he simply avoided every attack, driving the Hanyou to greater levels of anger. The Group oblivious to what had been said were shocked by Inuyasha's sudden rage. Worried that he may transform, they rushed forward, calling to the Hanyou to calm down. Ban stood still, he wanted to see if the bastard would lift a finger to hurt Inuyasha, he was hoping he would. Ban suddenly felt a furious need to smash the clam facade of the DaiYoukai.

Even focused on the dance between Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha, Ban at the corner of his eye caught the glance that the stupid Miko sent in his direction, as she bit back the cursed words, she had been about to use to quell Inuyasha. It was lucky that she remembered, his retribution if she dared embarrass the Hanyou before this fucking ice DaiYoukai would have been something that would have probably sent her scurrying back to her time for good. And he still wanted Inuyasha to remove the blasted thing himself.

The group tried without success to calm Inuyasha, both the Hanyou and the Daiyoukai ignored the irritating humans.

“You are lying, YOU are a fucking LIAR!!!” Inuyasha yelled as he attacked. Raking air.

“Yes! This Sesshoumaru is a liar, Inuyasha. BUT I have only ever told ONE lie, a lie that I kept alive for 230 years.” Sesshoumaru said clearly and loudly enough for everyone to hear. “The only lie I have ever uttered is that lie that you are my brother, and NOT my son!”

The humans froze. “What!! That is impossible!” Gasps and shock were clear. The knowledge suddenly going public was too much for Inuyasha, tears burned his sight. He roared, loosing control of his Youki , much to everyone's horror he began to transform, even though the sword was at his side. This was too dangerous, for all involved especially the Hanyou.

Sesshoumaru's hand dropped to his sword. He had no choice if Inuyasha transformed he would have to knock the Hanyou out. The screams of the humans had no impact. Sesshoumaru was preparing to attack, when much to his displeasure the black hair Hanyou appeared between him and the maddened Hanyou.

Ban raised his head, his face slightly red, and sang.

He sang 'their' song, he hadn't sung it since Inuyasha had reverted to adulthood, but some how his gut was screaming that music, that gentleness, was what was needed to sooth this wounded beast. The transformed Youkai looked up, and ran at Ban, growling and foaming. Ban stood his ground, and continued to sing. The Youkai lunged at Ban, wrapped its arms around Ban's chest, and collapsed.
Ban caught Inuyasha to him. As he promised in the song, he held the smaller Hanyou tight to him. He continued singing softly into puppy ears, as he stroked the long cotton soft hair. The puppy was traumatized, and while it was not obvious to the other, Ban could feel the frame shake, and the tension was so high in the Hanyou, that Ban was afraid he would snap.

Eyes narrowed, Ban turned to the DaiYoukai who was glaring at him.

“Leave! You have much to explain. We will find you when we are ready to hear you explain your fucking actions. For now, get the hell out of here!” Ban growled out.

Sesshoumaru stared. Throughout Inuyasha's long life, no other Youkai of power had ever protected or trained Inuyasha. Though his means were violent and downright nasty, HE was the one who had by attacking Inuyasha, trained him; by claiming Inuyasha's death as he, Sesshoumaru had been the only being who protected the Hanyou. That role had been summarily uprooted, and the DaiYoukai growled his hate at the one who had done what he knew he should have done all this while.

Sesshoumaru watched as in reaction to his growl, translucent scales of a great dragon, suddenly seemed to curl around both the Hanyous. Ban's Youki rose to match Sesshoumaru's and the stubborn Youki of the two clashed. Inuyasha his emotions raw, pressed into Ban's embrace.

Sesshoumaru caught the action, and immediately pulled back his Youki. This was not the time. “Very well, this Sesshoumaru will await you!” He absolutely spat out the words. Before turning and leaving the area. Ban snapped at the humans to make camp, other wise ignoring their confused blabbing, he picked up Inuyasha, and melted into the forest. Inuyasha would need some time to process this.
