12. Suikotsu’s Confession
Wow, lots of responses this time, ty all! (helps if I do this after each chapter, ne?) First I do want to apologize to you all for the long wait, I am hoping to update more frequently, but RL may get in the way, my best friend is getting married in June, and I am helping with the wedding prep, as well as throwing the Bridal shower and Bachelorette party. (Geez remind me never to get married, too much damn work! lmao)
Naheta - ty
Soranji – hehe ty
Kawool – yes, this little pervert is back at it, and with more perverted goodness in upcoming chapters, but not this one. (Gotta to hto have a little plot, ne? lol)
Khell – hehe, I am glad you caught up, yeah, Jak is thinking twice, and I don’t know where that come from with Sango, she was pressing the keys, hehe.
Tom – gomen nasaii about the long absence, I have a lot going on in RL and have been in quite a rut as far as any writing goes. I doubt I will be adding any other girls to this fic, but I may do a sequel down the road where other girls are added.
Sara-sama – I honestly haven’t decided if the guys are really looking for them, or just gave up, remember this is an AU, Kikyou never died, neither did the Shichinintai, so several events are different, one of them being that Inu Yasha is not as strong as he is in the anime. He also does not have a way to break the barrier, as he never met Shiori and the bat clan, so finding them would be alot harder. I had actually not planned on including Inu, Miroku or Kouga anymore in the story, but if enough people want it, I may. I feel so complimented that you said you Love my work, geez you guys are gonna give me a big head! Huggles
Chicky – hehe, you crack me up! huggles
Fallen Angel – I have read your review several times, and everytime I do, it makes me glow inside, ty.
…ACK! – LMAO, ok ok, your review kicked my ass into gear. (I have a good start on the next chapter, I am hoping to work on it Tuesday night)

12. Suikotsu’s Confession
Suikotsu sat staring reflectively off into the distance. His little slip up was weighing heavily on his mind, and he worried what Bankotsu would do to him if and when he found out. It was sure to be an ugly scene. He let out a heartfelt sigh, and felt a hand clamp down on his shoulder. He glanced up to see the very man who troubled his thoughts.
“What is wrong with you brother?” Bankotsu asked.
Suikotsu eyed him for a minute, he had to tell him, but the dread reared its ugly head in the pit of his stomach, welling up into his throat, closing off speech.
“Brother, have you ever done something that felt so right at the moment, and then after the fact, dreaded that you had done it? Dreaded it so much that you wish you could take that single action back? Because you know thae ace action would hurt someone close to you.”
Bankotsu eyed him in silence for a minute before glancing off into the distance. He seemed to be weighing Suikotsu’s words. A small smile graced his features as he replied, “Yes, little brother, I do have a regret. I regret not nailing that hime back in Kyoto. You remember, the one with the hot eyes, I thought they would bore a hole through my pants.”
Suikotsu let out a surprised laugh, and the two men shared a comfortable chuckle.“Ne,“Ne, Bankotsu?”
“Huh?”
“I have a regret.”
“What’s that?”
“I…I…well, err you see….” Suikotsu trailed off, pulling at his collar.
Bankotsu continued to watch Suikotsu with caring eyes, which made Suikotsu even more ashamed of his deed. His face flamed and he could not meet Bankotsu’s eyes. “I took Sango’s virginity,” he whispered to his lap.
Bankotsu was silent and Suikotsu chanced a glance at him. He had a stunned look on his face. The need to justify himself was almost overwhelming, but when the truth came down to it, there was no justification, so he bit his tongue.
Bankotsu rose to his feet, and stared off into the distance, his hands clasped behind his back, his eyes unfocused. Hurt at the betrayal of one of his trusted friends, who he called brother etched his features. Shame flooded Suikotsu in wave after painful wave.
“Suikotsu, you know I cannot just say its ok. As leader I cannot let such a betrayal of trust go. I am hurt that you would do such a thing behind my back, had you asked, I would have let you have her, but you blatantly ignored not only my authority in this, but also my claim on her as my property. No, I must punish this action.”
“I understand,” Suikotsu said humbly to Bankotsu’s back. “I shall await your decision at my house.”
He bowed as he left, seeing Bankotsu’s nod, what he did not see was the solitary trail of silver that slid down Bankotsu’s cheek.
---------------
Bankotsu remained standing on that hill for quite some time. He did not want to punish his brother, and he had come to him and admitted what he had done. But what punishment befitted such a crime? To cut off his male member? He could not do that to him, he would not be the same to the team after that, and they needed him. But what punishment could be fitting of such a crime?
---------------
Suikotsu sat in his house, staring at the wall. Every little noise set on eon edge. When would Bankotsu show up? What would the punishment be? Surely they would not put him to death over such a deed. Or worse yet, to cut off the very object that dhe ohe offence, that would be worse than death. Sweat poured down Suikotsu’s face, and his eyes shifted around the room, his breathing was erratic, fear taking a grip on his heart. Why did he have to open his mouth? Why couldn’t he just remain silent of his deed? Because Bankotsu would have found out one way or another, and better to hear from his own lips than from another’s.
Suikotsu got a drink of water, his mouth having gone dry, and wiped the sweat from his face, thesumesumed his seat on the floor. Taking up a meditative position, he tried to calm his inner turmoil, and await his fate.
-------------
Panjiiro watched the other girls in silence. Saikobi was in the bath house as usual, and Ayame had yet to return from Bankotsu’s home. The woman named Kikyou was still pouting over having been replaced, and most of the other girls avoided her. She had heard her cry at night more than once, but could not understand what ailed her.
Since they had pretty much finished the training, and fallen into a routine, switching off with the more mundane tasks, they were given more freedom than in the beginning. They were still locked into their cages at night, but they were given free run of the village for most of the day, and allowed to interact with each other.
The woman named Sango had attempted to leave one time, but she had been stopped by a barrier, and severely punished. No more escape attempts were tried. She felt for this woman, she had been the one to receive the harshest punishments. Ayame had gotten more punishments, but not as severe as Sango’s. Twice the girls had been gathered to watch her publicly beaten. Twice they had bore witness to this girl’s inner strength, as she bore the punishment better than most men would have. For this, Panjiiro admired her. She wanted to talk to her, to learn that strength from her, but that would mean she would have to step way outside her boundaries of comfort. To willingly speak to another, well this was something she had not done; well she could not remember the last time she spoke to someone just to talk.
But Panjiiro had done something for Sango; no one knew it was her. When she had been near the stream running next to the town, she had noticed aloe plants. She had picked some, and left some in Sango’s cage to aid her in healing. If anyone had asked, she would have admitted, although grudgingly, to doing it, but no one did.
So here she was, with the other girls and yet not; but then, this is how it always was. She knew that none of the girls would try to talk to her, they had in the beginning, but her monosyllabic answers had discouraged further discussions, and soon all of the girls gave up trying to talk to her at all. How she wished life had been different, the unfairness of it all was overwhelming. She never knew her father, knew nothing of him, her mother taken from her at such an early age, right before her eyes, the cruelness of humans then, and as the years passed, and finally to be caught and enslaved.
Panjiiro lowered her head, her hair covering her face, and quickly brushed away the tears threatening to spill. I will not cry, I will not cry, she chanted silently to herself.
She sensed someone standing, and then squatting next to her, and quickly looked up. It was Sango.
“Umm, Kagome and I were wondering if you would like to come and eat with us?” Panjiiro glanced at Kagome who nodded at her, and patted the ground next to her invitingly.
Panjiiro nodded silently, and gathered up her bowl cup,cup, and followed Sango over by Kagome, who cheerily greeted her. Panjiiro could not help but smile in return. Although she did not say a lot, Sango did not either, Kagome seemed to chatter enough to fill in the lapses, and the three of them laughed several times as they ate. Panjiiro for the first time in her life felt the bonds of friendship forming, and knew what it was to feel accepted.
---------------
Suikotsu looked up at the sound of someone scratching outside his door, “Enter.” His voice sounded unusually loud and hollow to himself. Renkotsu entered to Suikotsu’s surprise. “Bankotsu has ordered that all of us assemble in his house.”
Dread came over Suikotsu, but he forced his quaking limbs under himself as he rose and followed Renkotsu out of thuse.use. Renkotsu saw the state that Suikotsu was in, and knew that whatever they were all called together for, it somehow involved Suikotsu, and was not good news either. He kept his observations to himself, and continued walking next to Suikotsu.
For Suikotsu the walk to Bankotsu’s house was way too short, was he walking into his death? Too soon they were inside; all were in a dining hall inside of Bankotsu’s home, awaiting Bankotsu. The wait was not overly long as Bankotsu entered within a few moments time.
“Hello brothers.”
A chorus of hello’s echoed his greeting. He stood at one side of the room, everyone turned towards him, waiting to see what purpose they gathered for.
“I have sorry news to share this evening.”
A slight murmur passed through the room, but soon hushed, and Bankotsu continued, “One of you has let me down, and betrayed not only my trust, but everyone else in this rooms trust as well.”
Eyes darted back and forth trying to pin the culprit, Jakotsu, being the dumbest there, bluntly asked, “Who? And what did he do?”
“It appears that Suikotsu can’t keep his dick in his pants. Instead of asking to use my property, he is a sneak thief taking one of the girl’s virginity without even a by your leave. But, as he did admit this to me in the end, I am feeling more lenient.”
Accusing stares focused on Suikotsu who stared at his hands in his lap, waiting.
“I have chosen the punishment for you, Suikotsu.” A shudder passed through Suikotsu’s frame, and Renkotsu felt pity for this man, how easily it could have been any one of them in this same position.
“I am ready, brother,” said Suikotsu rising from his seated position and stepping forward to receive the verdict.
“Your punishment will be…”
