The love triangle

Inuyasha saw a vision of a small Sesshomaru who looked to be about 5 years old kneeling before his father. He heard his father call him a weak disgraceful bastard for not killing one of his guards who didn't do his job right. The child cried as his father slapped him across the face and spit on him as he walked away. The next vision showed him at about 10 years old. His father was drunk and beat him because he was still unable to transform into his true form. In another vision, a teenaged Sesshomaru was chained up and being whipped. His father was upset because Sesshomaru wouldn't chose a mate from one of the other lords daughters because he'd fallen in love with a servant girl. He had the poor girl beheaded right in front of him as he was being whipped. The last vision was the most gruesome. It made Inuyasha want to vomit. Sesshomaru had just come of age and his mother decided to leave them. His father blamed him and in a fit of rage he had Sesshomaru stripped and tied to a table. He screamed and cried as his father raped him. Unable to handle anymore, Inuyasha yanked away from him.

 

"Oh my god! I had no idea." He said shocked.

 

"Now you know why I was so cold and always alone. I hated you for what happened to me. I couldn't understand why father never did any of those things to you. I was wrong and I'm sorry I treated you the way I did. I wasn't a very good brother." He said looking away.

 

Inuyasha couldn't help the tears that fell. He never knew his father was so cruel. He was always told he was a great man. He surprised Sesshomaru by wrapping his arms around him in a tight hug and sobbed.

 

"I'm so sorry you had to go through all that. I'm sorry for the things I said to you. Why didn't you tell me sooner?"

 

"This Sesshomaru didn't want to appear weak. I had to be strong."

 

"You're anything but weak. If I had to go through all that I'd kill myself. But you remained strong. You held your head up with pride and dignity."

 

"Thank you Inuyasha." He pulled away and looked at him. "Please tell no one of what I revealed to you just now. Especially Kagome."

 

"I won't, I promise."

 

Sesshomaru placed his hands on Inuyasha's shoulders. "There's something else I would like to discuss with you."

 

"Yeah, what is it?"

 

"I know you care deeply for Kagome as do I. It's become quite clear to this Sesshomaru that Kagome is falling more in love with the BOTH of us every day. I know she's having trouble deciding who she wants. I believe I've come up with a way to solve this problem."

 

"How?"

 

"I was thinking of offering the duel mating law. That is if you two accept."

 

"Really? You'd be willing to share her?" Inuyasha said hopefully.

 

"Yes. I know you love her as much as I do and I don't want to hurt you anymore by taking her away from you. So, will you accept my offer?"

 

Inuyasha smiled. "Hell yeah! We just gotta get her to agree."

 

Sesshomaru squeezed his shoulder and smiled. "Well then brother, let's go get our woman."
