Authors Note: Hello again everyone! I hope this chapter is long enough for you!

Anyway, this chapter is long... but it doesn’t really go anywhere... there is a lot of dialogue and it is mostly an informative chapter. Some of it’s kind ‘duh’ stuff... but some of it is stuffs I’ve made up. And yes, I meant to say stuffs. This story is probably around being halfway done... a little more most likely. I will tell you all now.. There will not be a sequel to this story, there will only be a highly detailed epilogue... which I have already started working on. So... I’ll let ya get to the story now.

P.S.- For anyone who is confused about this ‘Intended’ business... intended is just basically like this: intended is to mated as engaged is to married. That’s the best way I can put it... because they intend to become mated! See... I’m smart! YAY! OH and Inuyasha and Amarante are not intended or mated.... they are simply courting... or dating in our world.. But courting in theirs.

Chapter Thirteen: Two Stars and a Crescent Moon

xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

All of Sesshoumaru’s guest, including his two children, were seated at the table ready for dinner. It was time for him to enter his side door, with one small change. Kagome was to enter the door behind him and sit to his right at the table. This was normal in royal class, and was also expected.

So, the group sat at the table and then, as it was supposed to happen Sesshoumaru entered through his door, Kagome walked silently behind him. He walked to her chair, pulled it out for her, waited on her to sit and then he went to sit at his own chair. Rin sat to the left of Sesshoumaru, with Shippou next to her.

Inuyasha, being the next in line for the West, sat across the long table from his brother. Amarante sat to his right. To Amarante’s right was Tamasine and then Miroku and then Sango who sat next to Shippou. Across from Tamasine was Oki and then Inari, leaving an empty seat on one side of each of the girls.

Sesshoumaru noticed that Amarante had sat to Inuyasha’s right side, and he smiled. Inuyasha might not know the importance but she certainly did. He would make sure that his brother learned how to behave for the ball before they went. It would not look well on Sesshoumaru to have his brother acting like an idiot in front of the other lands. Or the lower class youkai either.

The group ate their dinner with a good amount of small talk around the table and after the plates were cleared from the table, Sesshoumaru sat in his chair and stated that there were a few things he needed to announce. The group sat silently waiting on him to continue.

“I would like to first inform you all that, Rin, Jaken, and this Sesshoumaru will be joining you on your journey for Naraku.” He paused for a moment letting that much sink in, his mask in place as always. Then he had a momentary thought... “Strike that, Rin and I will join you, Jaken’s protection would not be needed with this many people around. Secondly, the reason why I wish to join you is because Kagome is now my intended and as such it is my responsibility to make sure that she is well protected.” He looked around most of them just nodded but the taijiya did look as though she was quite miffed about him thinking that herself and the others were not able to protect Kagome. And so he added something again. “I know that you all are well capable of taking good care of my Kagome, but it is just something expected of me as she is my intended.” The look on Sango’s face softened. Then he had a lapse of memory. He could not remember the other thing that he was supposed to tell the group about. He looked to Kagome for help. She noticed his gaze quickly and smiled at him.

“The ball.” She said simply in a soft manner. He smiled... ah yes, the ball.

“Also, there is to be a ball in the Eastern lands, celebrating a new prince. As you are all friends of Kagome’s, or the twins even, you are naturally all invited. It will be held in two weeks.” He said once Kagome had given him the desired help. Members of the group began looking around to the others and they pretty much silently agreed that they would all attend the Eastern ball.

Amarante smirked at Inuyasha, remembering the ball. He turned to her and gave her a questioning glance. “And what do you want?” He asked.

“This means that you will have to actually dress and act like youkai royalty.” She began laughing at him.

“Feh, it can’t be that hard.” Inuyasha replied.

“It is true, Inuyasha, that it will not be hard. But let us make sure that Nami gets some measurements so that she can alter some clothing for you. You will be dressed very similar to myself, as I do wear the clothing of Western royalty.” Sesshoumaru added as his brother only nodded to him and then turned to Amé.

“So, does this mean that you and your siblings must also dress alike?” Inuyasha questioned her.

“Yes, we must also dress for our own lands. Those who join us will need to bear the mark of either the North or the West.” Amé stated.

“That is right, I had almost forgotten. You all must wear something bearing the mark of either the North or West, otherwise you will not be regarded with respects, and this is most important, especially for the ningens.” Sesshoumaru agreed with Amarante.

“So, Amé-sama,” Began Miroku, whom got a dirty look for using sama, “What is the mark of the North?” She laughed slightly when she noticed that from the look on Inuyasha’s face, he was wondering the same thing.

“The North’s symbol is two stars, one smaller and one larger.” Amarante answered him.

“So why do you three not have them like Sesshoumaru-sama does?” The monk questioned again. It was Tama who answered this time.

“Oki does not have them because she is only a hanyou. My sister and I have them in a very odd place.” Tama said with a smile.

“Yes, Tama has one marking and I have two, but we both have them on our shoulders. They are mirrored images of one another so that if we stand back to back, our markings will touch and they are exact copies.” Amé answered.

“So, what about your other set of stars?” Kagome asked Amarante, catching that she had two markings. Amarante only looked down and didn’t answer which left a questioning glance on all but three faces. Sesshoumaru answered his intended’s question.

“As the second born daughter of the North was promised to the West, she has the West’s crescent moon somewhere on her body. It is a sign of ownership.” He stated knowing that she had always hated being owned by the West.

“It’s true.” She nodded and looked up to the group. “I have a blue crescent on my left hip.” Inuyasha only stared at her, he had not known that bit of information. After a momentary silence, Sango spoke up again.

“So, your circlet then, what does it bear? I mean, I know that it is traditional for the youkai women to wear a circlet with the symbol of either their lands, or their tribe on them when they go to any type of royal occasions.” She asked the youkai princess.

“Mine is a one of a kind, it has both symbols fused together, I belong as much to the West as I do to the North, and no matter who I mate with, I will always have both symbols.” Amarante answered her. Inuyasha growled softly at the mention of mating someone other than the West, him meaning himself. She only laughed at him. “Don’t worry about it Inuyasha.” She smiled. “Of course unlike other females who lose their symbols and gain that of their mate during the mating ritual, I will always contain both my North and West symbols to remind the lands of the promise made. If I were to mate, say someone from the South, it would only add the symbol somewhere and then it would overpower the other two’s ownership of me, but the other symbols would remain.” It was at this time that Amarante began to run something through her head. ‘Aneko doesn’t have a Northern symbol.’ she told herself and then she looked to her brother and repeated her thoughts.

“It took you 170 years to figure that out?” Oki laughed at her sister.

“But that means, that Aneko is a hanyou!” Amé stated in shock.

“We already knew that.” Tama laughed at her as well. It was at this point that Amarante resumed staring down at the table in front of her while the others around her continued to chat about random things.

Amarante hadn’t noticed that everyone had left the room, except for herself, of course, and Inuyasha. That is until he reached down to where her hands rested in her lap and grabbed one. She looked up in shock at the amber eyes that were starring back at her. “Are you ready to go?” He asked her as he smiled brightly at her. She looked around the room noticing that everyone was gone and she gave a slight blush and then looked back up at him. She nodded softly and he pulled her from the chair and to her feet. He pulled her body next to his and wrapped his arms around her in a hug, which she returned. She rested her head on his chest and he kissed her forehead.

“Diajbou?” He asked her softly.

“Hai, I’m fine.” She answered him. He smiled and then released her from the hug. He turned to leave the room but waited for her to join him. She stepped up beside him and placed her hand in his and they began walking out of the dining hall and toward their room. When they reached the North wing they found Tama leaning against the door to his room with a scowl on his face. He growled at the couple as they approached him. Amarante, being familiar with her brother’s temper, stepped out in front of Inuyasha. Their hands quickly shifted so that she was holding both of his hands behind her back. “What’s wrong Tama?”

“I was not informed that the two of you were to share a room.” Tama answered her with a glare that would rival Sesshoumaru’s own.

“Is there a problem with that?” She asked him, her mind beginning to wonder why Inuyasha was being so silent.

“Hai, the two of you are not mated and have no reason to stay in a room together.” He replied as he stood up completely, no longer resting against the door.

“I must remind you dear onii that Inuyasha and I have been sleeping together for the past couple of days.” She said honestly with a slight glare of her own.

“The past few nights you have been out in the woods, with others around. Not enclosed in a room in a castle.” Tama said while taking a step toward her. She gave him a very dirty look, clearly telling him that she didn’t really care what he thought. “Amarante, I am your superior, your onii, and you must listen to me.” It was a this point that Inuyasha decided to end the siblings quarrel. He released her left hand and moved his own and placed it over where he now knew her West crescent was placed and then looked at Tama from behind Amé.

“Don’t forget Tama, you might be her onii, but she belongs to me.” Inuyasha growled and to prove his point he leaned down and nipped at her neck, where her neck and shoulders met, the place where he one day hoped to place his mark. Tama’s eyes flashed red for a short moment before Amé turned to Inuyasha.

“Quit teasing my poor onii.” She smirked while poking him in the chest. He gave her a pout and she only sighed and turned back towards her brother. “Inuyasha and I are both old enough to make our own decisions.” He gave her a frown, making her add more to her sentence. “And I for one, have no intentions of becoming mated in a swift fashion.” Tama only nodded at her and turned toward his door, opened it, entered his room, and closed the door.

Inuyasha stepped up next to Amarante and grabbed her hand, they walked toward their own room, now that their obstacle had been conquered. “So, does this mean he approves of me or not?” Inuyasha questioned her jokingly as they reached the door.

“I’m not sure.” She smirked as she opened the door. “He’s pretty possessive of me, and you just stepped into his territory.” She pulled him into the room and closed the door. He again reached for her West marking.

“Really? Because to me, it’s the other way around.” He smiled at her. She nodded and yawned. She moved away from his grasp and began moving toward the large comfy looking western style bed. She sighed and picked her cloak up off of the bed and draped it over the chair that was sitting at the end of the bed.

While she was doing this, Inuyasha swiftly moved his haori and threw it over to mesh with her cloak. She had turned back to look at him and he smiled at her. She shook her head at him and he gave the female youkai a questioning glance.

“Nothing really, just, no one has ever really gotten Tama so upset by wanting to be my mate.” She smiled.

“There were others?” He asked her with his eyebrow raised. She nodded. “How many?”

“Not too many. But there have never been any that I’ve even considered.” She answered him as he took a step closer to her.

“That’s a good thing, otherwise I might get jealous.” He smiled as he pulled her back into his arms. They stayed in each others arms for a few moments before he noticed the small collection of sweat on her forehead. “Are you hot?”

“A little, it is rather warm in here, and the material of this damn kimono is not really helping the situation.” She huffed.

“So go change into a lighter one. You said yourself earlier that Yumi and Nami know you too well, I bet they left you one in the closet.” He laughed at her. He stopped however when she gave him a hard glare. “I do not like being compared to Miroku, Amé-chan.”

She smiled at him before removing herself from his embrace and grabbing his shoulders lightly. She turned him around and walked over to the closet at the other side of the room. She opened the dark wooden doors and found that the closet contained just as much now, as it had the day she left, many years ago. Sesshoumaru had always taken good care of her. She smiled at that thought. She then grabbed a pale blue kimono that she was sure was just a larger version of the one that she used to sleep in when she stayed in the West.

She turned to make sure that Inuyasha still had his back to her before she slipped out of her purple kimono and put the pale blue one on. “Okay, Inuyasha, you can look now.” She smirked as he turned toward her. He instantly noticed the short length of the light kimono, not as short as Kagome’s school uniform, but short enough to bring a very dirty smirk onto his face. “Wipe that smirk off your face or you can go outside and sleep.”

“I’d like to see you try.” He said with a look that matched his words. She pointed a, once again, glowing finger up to point at him, and then to the window that was behind him. “Feh, you care about me too much to throw me out a window.”

“Would you like to find that our for sure?” She questioned him and he nodded. She shifted her finger slightly so that it shot a small ball of green light at him, it moved slowly and hit him and instead of tossing him, as it usually did, it picked him up and threw him back onto the bed. He gave her a frown and she laughed at him softly while she moved over to the bed herself. He groaned at her slightly but moved over in the bed towards the wall that it was near, giving her room to lie down next to him. She moved into the bed and lied down next to him while turning to make sure that she was facing him.

“It’s very nice to be in a bed again.” She smiled. He wrapped an arm around her and pulled her body so that it was resting up against his own.

“It’s nice to be alone with you again.” He smirked, she looked up to his face and gave him a short soft kiss to the lips before she pulled away and curled up next to him. “And we can tell that you are part neko youkai.” He laughed at how she curled up next to him, much like a cat would. He lied awake until she fell asleep and then he placed a kiss on the top of her head before he joined her in slumber.

With Kagome and Sesshoumaru

xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

This time after eating Kagome followed Sesshoumaru out of his side door and they met with Shippou and Rin on the outside of the main door. Sesshoumaru had hold of Kagome’s hand and Kagome took Rin’s hand in her free one, and Shippou jumped up onto her shoulder. The family walked upstairs to Rin’s room. Earlier in the day Yumi had been told to turn Kagome’s old room into a room for Shippou so that the youji could be near Rin.

They first went to Shippou’s room and he hopped up into the bed and Kagome tucked him in. “Good night otouto!” Rin smiled brightly at him. Kagome bent down and kissed his forehead and Sesshoumaru awkwardly patted him on the head and gave him a soft smile.

They then excited Shippou’s room and walked next door to Rin’s. Kagome tucked her in, in the same fashion as she had with Shippou. Sesshoumaru gave Rin a more affectionate pat than what he had with Shippou, but it was a pat none the less.

The couple then walked to their own room hand in hand, they managed to not pass anyone on their journey. When they reached their room, Sesshoumaru dropped Kagome’s hand and walked over to his closet to find something lighter to sleep in. He then pulled out his desired clothing. Kagome walked to a door that was next to Sesshoumaru’s closet and opened the door. This room was simply a large closet for Kagome to keep her own things in and so that she could change in private, at least until after they had mated.

While Kagome picked out a soft green nightgown to change into, Sesshoumaru changed into his own lighter clothing.

“Sesshou-kun?” Kagome called out once she was finished changing and ready to reenter the room.

“You can come back Kagome.” He said from the other side of the door. She walked out of the dressing room door to see Sesshoumaru sitting on the edge of his nicely decorated western style bed. She began walking towards him and as she began to get closer, he reached out a hand for her. She placed her hand in his once she was close enough to reach him and he swiftly, but cautiously moved them so that they were both lying on the bed, his body resting softly on top of hers.

He quickly leaned down and joined their lips together in a soft, sweet kiss while attempting to keep the majority of his body weight off of her small frame. After a moment she reached behind his head and pulled his face down closer to hers, deepening the kiss. He however ruined the kiss when he un-expectantly had to pull away to make a sudden yawn.

She giggled at him as he pulled away from her and tried to hide his yawn. She almost effortlessly tossed him off of her body so that he was lying directly beside her. He put his only arm around her and she pulled herself closer to him which made him give out a soft purr. She laughed at this purr.

“Quit laughing at me and go to sleep. It was your fault that made me do that in the first place.” He smiled at her and she laughed at him again but stopped when she too yawned. He pulled her closer yet again, and before too long the couple found themselves victims of sleep.

Author’s Note: Oh I just feel like the dumbest person in the world! I have so been leaving out Sango and Miroku’s relationship almost all together! I had forgotten what I had made happen between the two of them... I had forgotten that I had even started their relationship up until about ten minutes ago.... and I was like WAIT CRAP! Because I didn’t add that in for something that Sango told Kagome happened. So as of right now, Sango didn’t tell Kagome about it... because I’m dumb and I forgot...... Sorry... I’m a dumbtard.
