I am the Moon

A/n: I do not own Inuyasha, Rumikio Takahashi does.

Of Old and New Again

I was in the dojo with Sheng and we were sparring. It had been a week since the birth of my boys and I was determined to get into shape again. I was smiling at him as he struck against my sparring katana.
“You could not tell you had given birth recently.” He said smiling.
I grinned back at him and I struck his katana and he pushed me back. He was very adept at fighting and was a good sparring partner.
“I feel almost normal again. They are perfect are they not?” I asked him.
“Hai. I have never seen such perfect pups.” He agreed.
“Are you happy here? You do not regret staying here?” I asked him seriously as I parried.
“I am happiest when I am with you and our sons. I was miserable when we were separated.” He answered honestly.
I smiled at him and felt that things had worked out for the best. The dojo door opened and my mother and Mayu were holding the boys who were rooting. I grinned and went and sat against a wall and pulled open my haori. Mayu and my mother brought me Hiroto and Kazuo. I was able to feed both of the twins; one to each breast with a little help. Sheng came and sat by me and watched as his sons fed greedily. The boys would not sleep unless they were next to each other. Their tiny claws clenched and unclenched while they fed. My mother and Mayu left us in peace. Hiroto was a screamer and was louder than Kazuo. I had a feeling he was going to be the leader and Kazuo the follower. I closed my eyes and let the calm wash over me and Sheng felt it too.
“I love you Koi.” He said.
“Hai and I love you too.” I whispered.
I was content for the moment and pushed away any and all worries.
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
I was carrying Kazuo and Mayu followed closely behind with Hiroto. I was going to see my father as I had been summoned. I knocked on the shoji door of his study and he called enter. Mayu followed me in with my first born and I took him in my other arm and sat down with them in front of my father. My father looked at me with pride and I smiled a little at him.
“Motherhood suits you.” He commented.
“Hai. I find myself wondering if my life began when I birthed them.” I said happily.
“Katashi has demanded the pups and his former advisor. This Sesshomaru advised him that Sheng has claimed the pups as his own and will not be returning to He Gang.” He said.
“Hai and he his reply?”
“It required a threat on this Sesshomaru's part. He was informed that Bakusaiga would be used.” He said with an evil grin.
“I thank you Father.” I said bowing my head.
“You still love him.” He observed.
“Hai but I love and have loved Sheng more. The uppyr binding that took place has forever tied me to him.” I said.
“Your mother and I have a similar binding. Not as intense but then I am not a telepath.” He stated reverting to first person.
“Hai. She has told me.” I said smiling.
“Your mother speaks too much.” He growled lightly.
“My mother worships the ground you walk on.” I commented.
He looked at me and nodded. I knew my father may not be as free with his emotions but the passion he and my mother had for each other was an example that I had carried with me. At one time, I did not believe I would have the same type of mating. I was immensely gratified that I was wrong.
“Can you tell me more about the dark hanyou?” I asked all of a sudden.
“Why do you ask that?” he asked in utter shock.
“I was reading the histories and your accounts of the era is all and I was curious.” I lied.
“What exactly is it that you want to know?” he asked raising his brow.
“What were his powers exactly? Did you actually see him expire?” I asked nonchalantly.
“He was a shape shifter as you know. He had some mental capabilities that would have rivaled yours. He was superior in barriers and had the miasma. He was intelligent but very greedy. I saw him pass on to the Netherworld when your Aunt had shot him with a purifying arrow along with the Wind Scar and Bakusaiga.” He explained.
“The Shikon no Tama, what happened to it?” I asked.
“It was wished that the undead miko would have peace in the afterlife.” He said.
I nodded and kept listening.
“That was the wish. Does anyone know what Naraku wanted besides to become full youki?” I asked.
“It was assumed that he wished for the miko.” He said arching his brow.
“Hai of course.” I said.
“Anything else?” he asked me.
“No my Lord. I thank you for handling the affairs of state for me in this matter.” I said standing up.
I bowed and left. I walked outside of the study and saw Mayu waiting for me. I handed her Kazuo and carried Hiroto. I went to my chambers and called for Akemi.
“Mayu I will require a wet nurse for the pups for a day or two.” I said.
“Hai my lady. You are leaving?” she asked laying both pups next to each other.
“Hai but just for a day or two.” I said.
I went to my wardrobe and pulled out my fang and an extra katana for Akemi. I slipped off my kimono and grabbed a black haori and matching haori. They were edged in gold thread that depicted roses. I grabbed a black obi and continued to dress. I wrapped the obi around my waist and slipped in my fang. I took out my dirks and slipped them in my boots as I put them on. I pulled my armor over my haori and turned as Akemi came in. I threw her a white haori and green hakamas. I handed her the spare katana and motioned for her to follow me.
“Uncle Yasha has trained you to use a katana, no?” I asked.
“Hai he has. I am also well versed in the bow.” She answered.
“Of course. Have you developed your spiritual powers?” I asked.
“Some.” She answered.
“Alright. Dress we leave shortly. We are going to solve a mystery.” I said whispering.
“The hanyou?” she whispered back.
She jumped up and clasped her hands excited. I grinned at her enthusiasm and went to find Sheng. I opened to him and knew he was in the library.
-I am going to go for a day or two to Edo to visit with Uncle Yasha and Aunt Kagome.-
-Do you wish for me to come? - He thought back.
-No, would you stay here and help supervise the pups care? - I asked sweetly.
-Hai. You are up to something. - He growled in my head.
-Hai but nothing bad. I am really just spending time with Akemi before her wedding to the ningen and enjoying moving without being pupped. - I thought back.
-Ah I see. Please do not come back injured. - He whispered in my head and brushing his yoki against mine.
I gasped and growled in pleasure.
-I am not quite ready for that yet. - I purred in his mind.
I could feel his chuckle and I turned and Akemi was ready.
“Come cousin, we put an end to our little mystery.” I said.
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
We stood in the ruins of the old castle. I moved around the familiar surroundings and tried to feel anything.
“Come this way. He slept in the back of the castle.” I said.
“Hai. Tell me cousin, was he as beautiful in his humanoid form as I have heard.” She asked curiously.
“Hai. He had long wavy black hair. His eyes were burgundy and his body was cut as if from a rock.” I said.
“I have always been curious.” She said wistfully.
“He was evil Akemi. He caused your father to lose fifty years of his life.” I stated as we made our way further into the ruins.
“He tortured your mother Asuna. You are still intrigued though.” She retorted.
“Hai I suppose I am.” I sighed.
“Did he really take liberties with you?” she asked.
“Hai, I was upset and I did not stop him.” I said.
“Well it would be interesting to find anything left.” She said.
“You are untouched.” I commented.
“Hai.” She said blushing.
“That is a good thing Akemi, ningen men place a higher value on it then youki males do.” I said gently.
“Inu males are not?” she asked.
“No not normally, our family maybe.” I answered.
“Did you enjoy the hanyou's touch?” she asked embarrassed.
“Hai. I hated myself at the same time. He knew what he was doing that I am certain of. I did enjoy it in a way.” I said honestly.
“Do you believe you when he said he wanted you.” She asked.
“No. I was another youki that he would try and absorb my power. He used manipulation to get those powers.” I explained.
We entered his old sleeping chambers and I flashed with old memories. I saw him sitting there and speaking with his old incarnations. I saw him staring at the Shikon. I also saw him touching me; the look of hunger on his face was intense. I opened my eyes and stared at Akemi.
“Some of his memories haunt this place. I want to find any other old castles and I want to visit Mount Hakurei-zan.” I stated.
“I found this.” She said.
I inspected a piece of a youki puppet. I touched it and I saw the puppet and Inuyasha fighting. Tentacles flowed out of the baboon pelt and the flash ended.
“Your father fought this particular puppet.” I said.
I went to the opening of the castle and remembered the barrier that had surrounded this very castle.
“We will return to the West for a few days then head to the next known castle. It is near the Ookami dens.” I said.
“Hai.” She said.
I took her hand and transformed to my energy sphere.
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
We left every second or third day and we were gone no longer than two days. Sheng noticed my pattern but kept his counsel. He was giving my body enough time to heal completely but he was dropping all kinds of innuendos and touches. I was burning for my mate again and forgetting the pain of birthing. I was getting ready to begin the hunt anew at Mount Hakurei-zan. Sheng grabbed my waist and spun me around. The twins were sleeping in the next room next to each other as always.
He ran his hands up my bare stomach and cupped my breasts. I moaned at his touch and he nuzzled my neck. He began licking and nipping along my shoulder and pressing his yoki against mine.
“You are going to make me come quickly.” I hissed in pleasure.
“Hai. I want you to run around on your little errand and come back to me burning.” He said roughly.
“I want you now.” I demanded.
“Not yet Koi. Just a little longer. I want you to think about me plunging myself into you over and over.” He said in a sultry tone.
He bit gently into his mating mark he had put on me and I shook against him. He withdrew and I wanted to not leave my futon for days. I growled and continued to dress as he smirked at me wantonly. I put on a dark grey haori and hakamas. I tied the black obi and slipped in my fang as I usually did. I pulled my armor on and tied it into place.
“What are you looking for?” he asked.
“History.” I said smiling.
He smiled back and it struck me again how beautiful he was, my face was burning at my hentai thoughts and he grinned wider.
“Go find your history.” He whispered as he ran his tongue along my ear.
I shoved him back gently and strode past him. I met Akemi at the gates and I created my yoki cloud. We took to the skies. Akemi looked happily around and I laughed at her joy. My own powers I took for granted and realized that hers were different from mine.
We landed at the crumbled remains of the once magnificent Mount Hakurei-zan. We walked into a cave at the base. This battle had taken place after I had appeared to him and the memories were ensconced in the crumbling rock. I placed a hand on the cave wall and I saw Naraku in his weakened state. I gasped and it ended.
“This place is choking with residual yoki even a century later.” I murmured.
I placed my hand against the wall again and I saw Naraku and Kikoyo on a cliff. He was whispering terrible insults to her and he injected her clay body with miasma. I shook and jerked my hand away again.
“Akemi, I do not think he could have survived the combined attacks of your mother's arrow, Bakusaiga, and Tetsaiga.” I said sadly.
“Why the sadness?” she asked.
“Because it was such a waste. He craved to be a full blooded youki and yet he was powerful as a hanyou. I detested him and liked him at the same time.” I said hitting the wall.
“In the end he got what he deserved cousin.” She stated.
“Hai I know. I also know I felt his yoki the day of the twins' birth.” I said.
“I am intensely curious about him but I am wise enough not to ask questions.” She responded.
“I have met him and I am still curious about him.” I said laughing a little.
“Maybe that too was residual.” She offered.
“Hai. I want to camp here for the evening. I scented a hot spring nearby.” I said.
“Goody. A bath is an excellent notion.” She said.
“You go first; I will erect a barrier around you.” I said.
“Asuna, I can erect a powerful enough barrier.” She said laughing as she took a change of clothes out of a small bag.
I nodded and sat against the cave wall and she made her way to the area I indicated. She left me and I closed my eyes and concentrated on Naraku. I was at the original castle but he was not there. I looked around and saw nothing. I came back to myself and sighed.
“You kept your end of the bargain, why did you not heed my words?” I whispered.
I heard a sigh on the wind and I jerked my head up. I looked around and wondered at the noise. I heard it again and I followed it deeper into the cave. I heard breathing but I knew damn well there was no one there. I looked along the cave wall and found my name in Kanji etched on the wall. I touched it and I saw Naraku etching it. He had transformed into his youki form. There was a look of intenseness on his face that I was unsure of. I wondered if he was trying to leave me a message. The flash ended and I stepped back. I was being allowed to see through premonitions the story and I was thankful. I heard the breathing again and searched the cavern for anything.
“Are you a spirit? Is that it Naraku? Your ningen half could have tied you here.” I said to no one.
I once again sat down and tried to reach into the past and I could not. I wanted to know what happened exactly that it was eating me alive. I had another flash of him alone. He was half dressed and his stomach muscles flexed. He was in his fully humanoid form and he appeared asleep. He moaned my name and the flash ended. I had to talk to Akemi and I was confused. I wondered if his move to kill Kikoyo had been driven by a twisted desire for another.
I found her bathing and called for her to let me in. She lowered her barrier and I had another flash. Naraku had been in this place. I flushed hotly and came and sat by the spring.
“He is all over this place. He had spent a tremendous amount of time here. I found my name carved into the cave wall down there.” I said bluntly.
“Asuna, Kami do you think we should leave?” she asked.
“I know not. I wonder if his spirit is tied here. I may be able to reach out in sleep. “I said.
“Are you playing with fire again.” She whispered.
“No. I do not think he lives Akemi.” I said staring past the rocks.
“What do you see?” she asked.
“History.” I murmured.
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
I fell asleep against the cave wall and I saw the battle that took place at this mountain. I felt a wave of purifying power wash over me as I slept. I saw him standing arrogantly against my father. There was a look in his eye that I knew. He knew more about Sesshomaru then he let on. He had wisely kept his mouth shut and taunted the Western Lord in other ways. I saw him again at the cave wall inscribing my name. There was a hole in the wall further back that I saw him slipping a scroll into. I knew he knew his fate yet he continued on recklessly. Why, I wanted to scream at him. Why could he not accept his own power? I awoke with a start and went even further down the passage and found the hole. I reached in and pulled out a very old scroll. I opened it gingerly and read.

“If you are reading this then history has happened as you said. I wish you had never come to me. I desire your touch and your presence as I have never desired anything, even the Shikon no Tama. You awakened that which I have tried in vain to destroy, my ningen side. I rage as I write this to you because it is not I. I cannot get the feel of your skin out of my mind and I wish for your death. You have raised the two sides of me at war with one another and it is intolerable. I want pain and pleasure for you and I regret you. I hate you and desire you at the same time. In finding your truth you have raised questions for me. This is my weakness and I hate you for it. I want badly to hear your voice laced with malice that I seek out your sire to see the resemblance, I hate you for this. I know that I will not be around to see you again so I continue on in a vain attempt of purging you from me. This is my bleeding half ningen heart writing this accursed letter. You will be the death of me.”

I gripped the aged letter and I stared at it in disbelief. I could not believe he had written it. I of course had become a little obsessed with his memory as well. There was a forbidden attraction and I recognized the pattern in which I attracted males; they liked to dominate and try and make me respect and fear them. I liked to break them as they tried to break me. I had tried to save the idiot if had had just listened! I mourned the loss of his intelligence and what he could have been. I wished he had purged himself of his evil ways. I refolded the scroll and put it in my haori. I went back to where Akemi slept and settled in. I closed my eyes and willed myself into sleep.
I was aware but helpless in my dream state but I focused myself to project. I appeared as my phantom self and saw him reclined staring at a mirror that I recognized as Kanas'. He looked up in utter disbelief and growled.
-I took you to have more intelligence you moron. How long has it been for you since I have seen you last? - I asked.
“More than three years.” He answered maliciously.
-You have reached your full power? - I asked.
“I hate the very sight of you. Unless I can wring the life from you, leave me alone.” He snarled.
-You have written the letter and left it in the ruins of Mount Hakurei-zan? - I asked him.
“Yes. I have killed Kikoyo and injured your sire and almost killed your uncle. It has been a very good three years.” He said with a nasty grin.
-Shut up Naraku.-
“What are you going to do hmm inu? You are there and I am here.” He sneered.
-Goodbye Naraku. - I said fading out.
I woke up and knew I would have to see him once last time, I felt it necessary to try and save him. He had actually honored our bargain and he had ended up dead. I shook Akemi awake and made her join me in my energy sphere. I went in the direction of Edo and the beads.
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
I stood just beside the well a century earlier. Akemi had spirited the beads away for me and I had passed through the well. I knew that the castle that Naraku occupied at this point was on the largest of the northern most islands. It was situated near the ningen city of Kushiro. It took me three days to reach it by my yoki cloud. I had to mask my aura again so as not to alert my family in the past. I made it to the castle and I looked for a weakness in his barrier. There was always a small portion that one could get through if determined enough. It took me hours to find it but I broke through undetected. I masked heavily again and felt his presence in the castle. I followed my nose and it led me straight to him. I pulled open the shoji screen door and nearly yanked it off its sliding mechanism. He jumped up in surprise and I balled up my hand into a fist and rushed him with a speed to fast to see. My fist connected with his jaw and sent him back a few steps. He looked up at me and snarled.
“How dare you.” He seethed.
“You are an absolute moron. I gave you the out idiot.” I growled at him.
He grabbed my black haori and pulled me to him. He was in his fully humanoid form and as beautiful as ever. He crashed his mouth against mine and I growled feral. His tongue invaded my mouth and our tongues dueled for dominance. His hands reached up and fisted my hair. He shoved me away from him and slapped me.
“I will do what I like and when I like. I do not remember asking for your permission.” He replied in a disrespectful tone.
I smiled at him as I held up the Shikon no Tama that I had stolen from his haori.
“You devious bitch.” He remarked coldly.
I threw the cursed jewel away and it hit a wall and rolled somewhere. He grabbed my haori again and ripped it open. His crimson eyes roved over my chest in hunger. He pushed me backwards and I landed on my rear. He went to his knees and then pressed his chest to mine. I took my claws and slashed his cheek and neck. Blood welled up and dripped out of the wounds. He pressed his thumb to my wind pipe and I brought my knee up and landed a blow to his own taut backside and he fell flat against me. The wind was knocked out of me and he looked down at my mouth and then ravaged it again. He ran his tongue along my fangs and sucked and nibbled my lower lip. I groaned into his mouth and he intensified it until he bruised my lips in its intensity. I used my strength and pushed him off of me. He looked surprised but determined. I rolled over to my side and started to crawl away from him when he grabbed an ankle and pulled me to him. He cut open the knot that held up my hakamas with his claws. He pulled them down past my hips and he finished untying the white obi and exposed my flat stomach. He leaned his head down and darted his tongue into my belly button. I gasped at the intimacy and fought him. I brought my knee up and caught him squarely in the chest. He pulled back and I managed to scramble away. I got up and he grabbed my arm and twisted it painfully. I let my Dakkasou seep to the tips of my left claws and reached up and slashed the right side of his neck. He shouted in pain and shoved my back against a wall. I ripped open his haori and slashed at his obi with my claws. His chiseled chest was exposed and I leaned forward and took a flat nipple into my mouth. I sucked and bit it without drawing blood. He inhaled sharply and I got more aggressive and nipped and sucked along his chest. Whatever this was, it was desperate and violent and based totally on instinct. My hakamas had slipped off and he pressed himself against my body and I wrapped my legs around his narrow hips. I still had on my haori but it was ripped open. He looked me in the eyes and kissed me again. This one was demanding but less violent. I untied his hakamas and put on leg down to steady myself and worked his hakamas past his own hips.
“Now who is the greedy one inu?” he whispered in a raw baritone.
“Shut up.” I growled low in my throat.
He wrapped a hand around my throat and I snapped my fangs at him. He squeezed a little and I wrapped a hand around his.
“I will take your life half breed.”
“Arrogant bitch.” He said in a strained whisper.
He put his engorged member at my center as if taunting me. I met his bluff and thrust down with a roll of my hips. He was inside of me and his eyes widened a fraction. He hissed in intense pleasure. He was large and the pressure was deliciously wicked. I was wet and he had slid in easily enough. He did not move for a moment as if he was collecting himself and he surged up inside of me hard. I wanted to scream in pleasure and pain. He thrust upward into me harder and I met them with my own. I was concentrating hard and I had a sheen of sweat covering my skin. He was the same and it was raw and brutal.
“Down.” I growled out.
I wanted him deeper and he pulled me from the wall while still connected and laid me on my back on the edge of the futon. He rolled his hips hard and I moaned. He continued to pound into me hard and I was losing my self to the pleasure he invoked in me. I grabbed his forearms and gouged them with my claws. The violence seemed to excite him further and he reached between us and pinched and rolled my clitoris between his thumb and forefinger. The pressure snapped in me and I cried out loudly as I my body released. My vaginal walls clutched and fluttered and tightened around his member. He continued to thrust into me and I realized I was going to come again. He gently brushed the tips of my breasts with his claws and I felt myself start to tighten yet again. I could feel his pace quicken and get more erratic and he again applied light pressure to my clit and I came undone yet again; it was so hard and it blinded me in its intensity. I could feel his breath quicken and he tensed and I felt him reach his own mind shattering release. I let out a guttural grown that was followed closely by him snarling and panting. He collapsed against me and my chest was heaving from the single most intense rut of my life. I made a move to dislodge him and he did not allow it.
“I want you again.” He groaned into my ear,
I searched his chiseled face and thrust against him. He features contorted in pleasure and he slowly withdrew and turned me so that I was on my stomach. He buried his staff in me again and I groaned. He grabbed my hair and yanked my head back and thrust into me. I started a steady growl that I had a time controlling. He leaned his head down and started to lick my neck, I ended up digging my claws into the futon and the floor beneath.
“Are you still going to kill me?” He cooed into my ear.
“If you do not shut up I promise it will slow and painful.” I growled.
“Now that is an idea.” He said huskily.
He shifted a little bit and slowed his thrusts. I gasped at the slow penetration. He was in no hurry and the coil in my belly started to tighten again. It was going to be an explosion I knew and I tried to urge him on to make him speed up. I heard him chuckle and grew angry. He was building me up for something; he always was the master strategist.
“Can you not lose yourself for the moment?” I said in a horse whisper.
“Oh and how would you have me lose myself?” he purred.
“Let me up and I will show you.” I said with gasp at a hard thrust.
He slowly withdrew again and I hated the sense of warmth and loss. I pushed myself up into a sitting position and then pushed him none to gently flat on his back. His look of surprise was priceless when I mounted him and impaled myself. He lifted his head and he groaned.
“Hai that is what I mean.” I said leaning down and whispering in his ear.
I ground myself into him hard and leaned back and grasped his sac. His eyes rolled back and he snarled softly. I was pleased at his responses and ground against him harder. He had sweat that drenched his brow. I took a single claw and ran it down his sternum and blood welled up, he hissed in pain. I leaned my head down and lapped up the blood with my tongue. He groaned loudly and I spied his responses through my silver lashes.
“You are as wicked and depraved as I.” He groaned.
“Hai. Do you want to see how wicked I can be?” I murmured against his chest.
I latched onto his other flat nipple and was none too gentle. I bit into it and tasted the sweet blood. I flicked my tongue against the tiny wounds my fangs left behind. He thrust up and I met it with grinding my hips. I was losing myself and sped up and moved against him as hard as possible. I leaned down and took his mouth again, slowly kissing him thoroughly. I memorized his taste and scent. He was actually moaning under me and it thrilled me. He sat up and his gaze was intense. We were moving in perfect unison and I was biting back my own sounds of pleasure. I put my hands on his shoulders and he grabbed my hips. This position had my bundle of nerves being dragged against in a most intense way.
“Moan for me.” He demanded.
I shook my head lightly and he growled. He pressed my hips down harder and thrust harder. He reached between us and pressed my clit in circular motions. There was no room but he had managed anyway. I started panting and he grabbed my wrist and sank his fangs into it. My orgasm hit suddenly and intensely. I shook violently and I knew that I had to be impossibly tight. I screamed his name and he himself went rigid and spilled his seed. I heard my own name on his lips and we totally collapsed in a tangle of limbs.
I woke up after a short period of time and realized that my release had been so powerful that I had passed out. Naraku too was sleeping and I studied him. He looked like a dark angel and I doubted that he hardly ever slept deeply. Our limbs were still tangled and I was actually a little sore. I really did not want to wake him but I had to get up. I slowly moved and he grunted in his sleep. I hesitated but then I brushed some hair off his forehead. I went to brush more when he grabbed my wrist.
“You really should sleep more often.” I commented.
“You should hold your tongue.” He snapped.
“Let me up.” I snarled.
He allowed me to disentangle myself and I crawled to the other side of the futon. I laid my head down and felt heaviness overcome my limbs.
“Are you intending to sleep?” he asked in surprise.
“Hai and so should you.” I said yawning.
He opened his mouth to speak then shut it. I lay on my stomach and looked at him. I was still very naked as I shed my torn haori.
“I have not rutted in months. I am exhausted.” I stated bluntly.
“You are going to sleep?” he said dumbly.
“Hai I am. Sorry I normally do not have an encounter like this and run off.” I stated with a smirk.
“Fine.” He said lying down next to me.
“If you are going to stay awake could you at least reinforce your barrier? I found the weak spot on the south side of the castle.” I murmured.
I felt his eyes on me and I shifted under his gaze.
“I am not truly prejudiced against hanyous. You have angered me in the past and I used the term to insult you as you have by calling me inu.” I said with my eyes trying to close.
“How did you know I was thinking that?” he asked suspicious.
“If I said you were easy to read would you believe me?” I said.
“No.” he said flatly.
“I am a telepath and so are you.” I said yawning again.
“You can hear my thoughts?” he asked dangerously.
“Occasionally, you are very good at shielding. You let your shields slip every so often.” I said rolling to my back and stretching.
“Why are you not afraid?” he asked in a low tone.
“Because I want to sleep and I know you do too. What happened was simply divine and I really would like a repeat.” I said honestly.
He looked at me like he could not recognize me and I sighed.
“For Kami sake Naraku. You have to admit that was mind blowing.” I said irritated.
“Hai. Too good.” He admitted.
“Alright since you do not wish to let me sleep, why do you not ask the question you really want to know?” I said.
“Why did you come back?” he asked searching my face.
I held out my hand and willed the Shikon no Tama into my hand. It flew across the room and landed in my palm. I closed my fingers around it and looked at him.
“This is the reason. You did not listen to me. You were honorable and held up your end and I feel as though I have not.” I said dropping the jewel between us on the futon.
“I choose what I want and you cannot force a change.” He snapped.
“I can try and reason with you.” I said.
“I am twisted and evil remember?” he replied.
“You are also fiercely intelligent, arrogant, powerful, and stupid.” I said sarcastically.
He went to strike me and I caught his hand. His eyes were burning with something I was not sure.
“So you came back because your honor demands it?” he sneered.
“Hai.” I said.
“I do not need your pity.” He said starting to stand.
I pulled him back down and pushed him onto his back.
“If I pitied you I would never had bothered to try and warn you again.” I said straddling his hips.
“What are you doing?” he gasped as I ran my hands up his chest.
“Giving you incentives to listen.” I said.
“You are intent upon rutting again.” He said grinning.
“Hai it shuts you up.” I said haughtily.
“You are the most complex female. You are nothing like either of the other two dogs.” He said as I grasped his emerging erection.
“Oh I am like them both but I take what I want.” I said thickly.
“You have been born to rule. You are his heir. He made an onna his heir.” He said in surprise.
“You deduce very well. Now shut up and enjoy me.” I said before I took possession of his lips.
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
He finally slept and slept deep. I was out of my mind exhausted but I got up and took the disgusting Shikon with me. I intended to hide the damn thing and that would cause him to change tactics. I had put on a black kimono and took off on my yoki cloud. I went to the last place any one would look, Mount Hakurei-zan. I went into that same cave and threw it into the bowels of the crumbled mountain. My history did not change but I was hoping that just enough did. He would be furious and I hoped he burned to want to take out his revenge for my betrayal.
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
I made it back to his castle and gathered my things. He still slept deeply and that shocked me. I went to the shoji door and I heard his voice.
“Do you always run away?” he asked in a sultry tone.
“Hai I do. It is what I am best at.” I said mockingly.
“What was this?” he asked raising a brow.
“Lust or passion; maybe both. Take your pick.” I said.
“I do not intend to pick anything.” He said in his regularly sneering tone.
“Good I see you are doing what your best at. Good luck.” I said and I left.
