Lord Inu Daiyoukai and the Feral Huntress

Chapter Four: Adamina Tale

With the children fast asleep the toad knocked out and the brothers sitting quietly talking, the time flew by. Soon Kagome and Kaede finish boiling the herbs into a liquid form and gave it to Adamina. Kagome tilted her head back and opened her month. Kaede poured the medicinal herbs down her throat and rubbed her throat gently to get her to swallow. A couple hours passed by and Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha heard Adamina heart beat pick up. Knowing what happened the last time she woke up around strangers Sesshoumaru decided to warn the two mikos.

“Step away from the women, she tends to lash out when she in awakens.” He said calmly as he rose to his feet. Not taking any chances they moved away from her. As he rose he cradled Rin in his arms. He walked gracefully over to Inuyasha and Inuyasha nodded his head silently in understanding. Sesshoumaru gently sat Rin on the opposite side of Shippo in Inuyashas’ lap. Rin turned inward toward Inuyashas’ chest and her tiny fist grabbed his haori. After she was settled, she fell back into a deep sleep.

Adamina started to stir as Sesshoumaru approached her. As soon as he got within reach Adamina arm shot out again, only to be caught in his strong grip. Her eyes fluttered open and she spoke in a coarse voice.

“Sesshoumaru are we here, is this the place you said you were going to take me?” She asked still a little bewildered.

“Yes.” He stated simply as he released her hand.

While still laying down, she pivoted her head from side to side so she could get a look at her surroundings. She saw everyone, including the unconscious toad youkai. Sesshoumaru kneeled by her side as she spoke.

“The youkai slayer and the monk doesn’t seem to be around.” She said as she observed the crowd. Then she continued.

“You two must be the mikos… and that’s’ the little toad from earlier.” She frowned a bit when she saw Jaken, remembering his nasty words from earlier. Then she saw the boy with the puppy ears.

“You must be Sesshoumaru younger brother. He’s a young cute fox youkai Shippo and she must be Rin …the adorable little girl that helped you change…” She said the last part as she looked at Sesshoumaru. She always loved children, but was afraid to have any of her own. She didn’t want to bring innocent children into the world she came from. Especially with the dangerous life she lives. Sesshoumaru was a bit surprised that she knew about Rin…and how she ‘helped’ him.

‘Hmmm this woman grows more interesting as time passes.’ Sesshoumaru thought. He chose to ignore her last statement. Even though it was true he would never admit it out loud. The tiny fragile human pup Rin helped him discover his compassion, which in turn helped him tap into his true potential. Rin had more inner strength and kindness in her heart than anyone he knew, including himself. No matter how much hell she has been through she always keeps that bright sunny smile.

Adamina and Sesshoumaru look at each other for a while as if no one else was in the room. Kagome looked at Inuyasha confused by their behavior. Inuyasha shrugged his shoulders to silently tell Kagome that he was just as confused as she was. Kaede stood their patiently waiting on them to finish their…staring contest.

Then as if she was coming out of a trance, she said:

“Thank you all for helping me.

“Keh. Don’t thank me they did all the work.” Inuyasha said as he gestured his head towards the two miko.

“Sesshoumaru helped me as well; he mended my wounds when I was in the forest. I would have died without his aide…If it wasn’t for all of you everything…all of the sacrifice would have been in vain.”

Ignoring everything else she said Inuyasha blurted out:

“What, Sesshoumaru helped you?!” his tone showed how surprised he was. He knew one of the ways full Inu youkai heal wounds. They lick the wounds and let the healing saliva take affect. He just could imagine the snobby Sesshoumaru licking a stranger to help her. Even if he knew Sesshoumaru used a cloth, he would be able to wrap his mind around Sesshoumaru drooling all over the wash rag.

‘Then again maybe the bastard has a thing for her.’ He thought. This indicated that he hung around Miroku way too much.
Before Adamina could response Kagome scolded him in hushed tones.

“Inuyasha! Don’t act so shocked, Sesshoumaru has helped us before to, and keep your voice down.” She didn’t know exactly what Inuyasha was thinking; she just thought he wasn’t giving Sesshoumaru enough credit. They did have problems with the daiyoukai in the past, but their former enemy was now her brother in law. She did not want Inuyasha to think ill of him nor did she want Sesshoumaru to think ill of Inuyasha.

“Keh. Whatever, Sesshoumaru doesn’t exactly go around saving everyone you know! I have every right to be surprised!” Inuyasha said defensively.

“This is going to go on a while.” Kaede said as she got up to fix a pot of tea while the couple argued. Meanwhile Sesshoumaru was getting annoyed, he couldn’t think with all the commotion they were making. More importantly, Adamina was sick and she needed rest, not to be disturbed by the bickering couple…

“Cease this racket at once; you are adult mates act as such. Your childish quarrel will not help the woman heal!” He said sharply as he turned his head to the right to glower at them. Kagome knew he had a point, but she also had a temper. Before Inuyasha could retort, she said:

“Alright, you don’t have to be so mean about it shessh!” She snapped. She wanted everyone to get along, but she had a short fuse like her mate. Sesshoumaru narrowed his eyes at her, not liking her tone.

“Yeah, stop being acting like you got a log rammed up your ass, she and Kaede went through a lot to help the both of ya. You could thank them, Sesshoumaru.” Sesshoumaru tensed. His knuckles cracked loudly as he balled his hands into fist. He was grateful for their help, but he also didn’t appreciate them disturbing Adamina. And he really was fond of saying thank you, please or I’m sorry. It will take a lot for him to utter those words. He rather show his gratitude in a begrudging matter.

Besides that, Adamina looked quite uncomfortable when they were arguing, and he didn’t like it one bit. So instead of continuing to argue he glared at them as the right side of his lip twitched. That evil smirk was about to creep up on his face. It always appeared when he was seriously pissed and was trying to control himself from exploding and releasing a huge outburst of rage. That would only make matters worst. It was also the smirk he got right before he ripped someone apart. Since he was just irate and didn’t want to kill anyone in the village, he used all his self control to calm his fury.

Kagome notice the glare and she took it as his way of conveying his anger with them. She figured he did have a point, after all the patient welfare always comes first.

“I’m sorry we snapped at you Sesshoumaru, we won’t argue around her anymore. Isn’t that right Inuyasha” She said as she turned and gave him the ‘you better say yes’ look.

“Keh, Yeah, yeah, yeah we’ll shut up around her.” Was all Inuyasha said, although he said it half heartily. That was as close to an apology he was going to give.

Sesshoumaru said nothing and turn his gaze back toward Adamina. She looked up at him with appreciative eyes. Her eyes conveyed what her voice didn’t not; she was thanking him for the peace and quiet.

Kagome went on the right side of the bed and grabbed her hand rubbing it gently. She introduced herself and Kaede. Not only did she apologize for not introducing herself earlier, but she apologizes for her behavior as well.

“It alright, couples argue, that just mean you love each other.” She smiled. Kagome blushed as she continued to hold her hand for moral support. Inuyasha rolled his eyes. Sesshoumaru sat cross-legged on her left side. Looking down at her he said:

“Now explain these sacrifices you speak of, what occurred that lead you to me.”

Before she could say anything Kaede voice was heard.

“Here is your tea child; it should help give you more energy.” Kaede said as she walked into the room and handed Adamina the cup. Kaede also apologize for not introducing herself. They were in such a rush to save her by getting her blood pressure up, that they forgot such formalities, which Adamina understood completely.

“It’s okay really and thank you for your hospitality; most of all thank you for helping me, I am really grateful.”

“Aye, no thanks needed child, we are happy to aide you in your time of need.” She smiled at Adamina and Adamina returned the smile. Then Adamina returned her attention to Sesshoumaru as she heard him speak.”

“I will not repeat myself.” Sesshoumaru said curtly, he wanted to find out what the woman story was.

“I hate to say it but I agree with him; what’s your story and how come you know so much about us anyway?” Inuyasha asked bluntly. He knew what his brother was getting at, they wanted information now.


“Alright I will tell you everything.” She took a sip of her tea. Kaede sat next to Kagome and she asked her:

“Are you up to it child, perhaps you need a bit more rest?” Kaede said with concern.

“No…I just want to get it over with.” Hearing the determination in her voice, every one hushed and listened closely. Then she started her tail:


“In the future, the number of humans grows while the number of youkai decreases. There numbers grew so small that they become myths and legends. Even though many human and youkai loathed each other, the youkai race kept earth safe from invaders merely because of their presence. When the number of powerful youkai were few, the aliens the Plytobio invaded earth. Scientist have determined that these creatures are part animal and part plant. They are large green creatures with four tentacles in their backs, many sharp fangs, claws and a tongue with a bone sharpen spear at the end of it used to either kill their enemy by injecting poison or sucking their blood. They are also highly intelligent and well advanced in weaponry. After a complete interrogation of the Plytobio prisoners of war, we discovered that the aliens have been watching Earth for 1000’s of years. They were too afraid to strike when youkai roamed the earth because youkai posed a perilous threat to them. So they waited until their number dwindled before they attacked. The humans managed to hold their own for a little while, but we are slowly becoming extinct. The few that are left are either warriors, slaves or a Plytobio meal waiting to be served up on a planter. They did not attack with their ship weaponry because they wanted earth to stay in tact for later use. Instead, they sent waves of ground troops and attacked us in hand to hand combat.

Adamina told her story with a distance voice, as if she was trying to detach herself from the pain of it all.

“Oh no.” Kagome gasped and Kaede gave the miko sitting next to her a hug for support. She was worried about what happened to her family in the future as well as her family in the past. She knew that all of the humans would be long dead, but what will happen to Inuyasha and the others. Not able to completely wrap her mind around it all, Kagome remain silently while she still held Adamina hand. Kaede rocked her like her mama use to as she tried to hold back her tears. Sesshoumaru sat still as a statue hanging on to every word. Inuyasha eyes was wide, he hated to see any woman cry. He started to lay the children on the floor and go to her, but the look she gave him and the squeeze of Adamina hand told him that she wanted to continue to hear the rest of the story. So he stayed quiet, he was eager to hear more also.

Adamina took another sip of tea and she continued.

The humans were not going down without a fight, so they decided to create enhance soldiers that would be able to fight the enemy on even ground. These enhance soldiers are called Feral Hunters or Feral Huntress. They did experiments on orphans using animal DNA and genetic manipulation. There were plenty of us orphans, since the aliens killed most of the humans. We work for a secret government organization called the World Preservation Agency. I have been training since I was a small child to take on the enemy. I was taught hand to hand combat, weaponry and how to use advance technology. They also taught me about you. I learned everything from what type of youkai you are to the language you speak. As you already know, I learned about your family as well. I even traveled all over Japan to search for you and all of your known family.

Note even when she prevent sess from being lossed aliens will still come but he will help destroy them because he will know what they are after. He will go into hibernation to hide himself and he will tell adamina were so she will know where to find him in the future.

“The reason why I know so much about you is because of research. The scientist figured that if this menace they were facing was real, then there is a strong possibility that youkai did and still exist. We just had to find them so they would aid us. We were sure that none of you would take too kindly to the invaders. The aliens knew all about you and other youkai from a millennium of watching earth. The humans were only able to dig up a few facts about you like, your abilities, battles you have fought and your general location. The aliens however had plenty of information on you. WPA agents managed to steal this information. After looking through all of their data, the information on you just stopped. It was as if you disappeared. According to their recordings you disappeared this year. Knowing this, we looked for you all over the world hoping that you were in hibernation. We thought that once you have awaken and found out what was going on, you would help us. We knew that it was a possibility that you may refuse, but we had to give it a try. I am sorry if it seems like we wanted to use you…”

She said hanging her head low. Sesshoumaru grabbed her chin in a gentle grip and made her look at him.

“Do not apologize when you have not offended. This Sesshoumaru senses no deception in your words or scent. It would not be prudent to waste my wrath on you. Now continue.” If he was hibernating somewhere he would rather someone, youkai or human wake him up and notify him of the…uninvited guests. This was his plant and he had no problems fighting for it.

She nodded her heard and continued to talk.

“During our search for you, we discovered that Inuyasha, a Kaki Neko named Kirara and the young fox child were captured.”

Quiet sobs was heard coming from Kagome direction as Kaede continued to rock her. Adamina started to rub Kagome hand trying to confront her like Kagome did earlier. As she did this she continued to speak.

“In my time, the year 2020, we haven’t been able to free Inuyasha or the others. After much searching the only thing we found of Sesshoumaru’s was his broken Tensaiga that couldn’t be mended by our hands. We believed that you the only one that could fix it. Since the sword was of no use to the aliens in a broken state they did not want it. However they did want the sword whole and they wanted you Sesshoumaru. They know of the sword abilities and plan to use you and it to gain immortality. After that, they will be unstoppable. Since they couldn’t find you in the present they decided to go to this time and take you to the future against your will. They will use any means to get what they want and they will kill you after they are finished. They wanted to take you by surprise, but I guess I ruined their plans. Even though I managed to warn you they can still be a danger. I know you are all very powerful, but as I mentioned earlier, they have advanced weaponry that can trap, harm or even kill you.”

Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha scoffed at the same time and they both said:

“As if they could destroy this Sesshoumaru, As if they could kill me.” They looked at each other and grunted.

‘Yep they are related alright’ Adamina thought. She took a deep breath and continued.

“Humans technology had advanced so we were able to send undetected spy ware into one of their headquarters in Japan. We found out about a prototype time travel device they possessed. They were going to use it to send their six best assassins after Sesshoumaru, kill everyone that may aid him except for the youkai and capture him. If the youkai are killed, in this time then they will disappear and the aliens won’t have them to do whatever they are doing to them. (She didn’t want to tell the others exactly what the aliens where doing to them). My team and I infiltrated the base intending on taking the device and going back to this time to stop whatever made you disappear…to aid you.”

No longer able to keep up her distant state, her voice broke and her eyes filled with tears. Nevertheless, she did not let them fall she was determined to finish her story.

“When we infiltrated the base, we were ambushed. Eight of the ten team members were killed in a matter of minutes. My brother managed to get his hands on the time device, but he suffered a fatal wound in the process. We retreated into hiding in another part of the facility. He handed me the device and told me to complete the mission. To see to Sesshoumaru safety, to live or else the entire world will be lost. He told me he loved me right before he died in my arms…” Her brother always showed his love for her. He figured he was too much of a tough guy for that. When he died that was the first and only time she remembered him saying it.

She stopped a minute to catch her breath as Kagome rubbed her head and held her hand. She gave her hand a gentle squeeze of reassurance. Taking another deep breath she continued.

“After Avan last breath left him, the aliens found us. They shot me as I covered Avan body with my own. I didn’t want to leave him, but I had to. I gave him a kiss on his forehead and said my goodbyes. The aliens were about to finish me off when I hit the button and ended up in this time. Since the device itself can not travel back in time, I smashed it before I disappeared to by us sometime. But the aliens soon rebuild it and followed me. I don’t even know how long I have been in this time. They could have picked up my trail already. This jewel on my breast is my ticket back to my time. So my mission is to warn you, keep you from disappearing, then I am suppose to report back to the future to see if everything turned out as it should. Please Sesshoumaru; say that we will help each other…” She wasn’t usually one for begging but the WORLD was at stake. She was angry with herself for feeling vulnerable and alone, but she didn’t care if she had to lose some pride, this was for the “greater good”.

“Indeed.” Sesshoumaru said quietly. He didn’t know who or what the aliens were exactly, all he knew was that they invaded his plant and kidnapped his pack. They possibility murdered some of them. Now they have the gall to come after him and presume to manipulate him into doing their dirty deeds…oh there will be hell to pay. And Sesshoumaru intended on collecting the payment with interest from those Plytobio bastards, with his fangs, claws, whip and sword…

Kagome gave Adamina a big hug forgetting that she had taken off Adamina torn shirt so she could apply some of the herbs to her skin:

“I’m so sorry for all of the loss of your family and friends, the pain and for every tragedy the future has seen.” She sobbed quietly trying not to wake the children.

Sesshoumaru rubbed Adamina head and Kaede joined in the group hug, whispering confronting words to the two woman and they seemed to calm.

“So you and Sesshoumaru are going after these bastards huh.” Inuyasha said. He wanted to meet the assholes who fucked with his pack, his plant and made Kagome cry, but he knew he couldn’t. He had a large pack to protect now in this time and from what she said, those bastards would come after anyone attached to Sesshoumaru. Since Sesshoumaru was going after the assholes, he should say behind and guard the village.

“Yes, they are my prey.” Sesshoumaru said with a low dangerous tone.

“Keh, fine by me, just don’t fuck up and get yourselves killed, and give them beating for all of us.” Inuyasha said.

“This Sesshoumaru will not just thrash them little brother, he will make sure they will die a horrid death.” He said with murder in his eyes. As far as he was concern him and Adamina weren’t going the walking dead, the aliens were.

“That’s all I needed to hear.” Inuyasha said with a smirk of his own. He just wishes he could join in.

Sesshoumaru was a bit taken aback by Inuyasha’s cooperative attitude, though Inuyasha has cooperated with him in the past; it took some getting use to. However, he didn’t display his surprise on his countenance.

‘He remembered what she said, that the pack will be endangered and decided to stay behind and guard them. Good pup.’ Sesshoumaru thought.

“We will stay until she is recovered then this Sesshoumaru and the Huntress will pursue these aliens.”

Kaede nodded her head in agreement as she led the still sobbing Kagome to her extra futon. Inuyasha picked up the children and placed them in Rins room. Shippo was at the foot end of the large futon and Rin was at the head. He figured they would sleep until morning. Sesshoumaru gave him a nod and Inuyasha returned it as he laid down by Kagome. He confront her in her time of need, knowing that she was worried about not only the state of the world in the future, but about her family as well.

Kaede came back out and wrapped a sleeping yukuta around Adamina top half so she would keep warm.

“Please do not hesitate to call me if you need anything.” Sesshoumaru nodded and said.
“Yours and Inuyasha mate assistance is appreciated.” She bowed as low as her old body would let her before she bid them good night and fell asleep.

When everyone was asleep including Adamina, Sesshoumaru placed his back against the wall by Adamina futon. His right knee was bent as he rested his right arm on it. His left leg was straight while his left had pushed Adamina bangs off of her forehead. He stayed like that the rest of the night.


A/N: Adamina will recover soon so I can really get this story moving. Oh and Adamina can be a real sweet heart unless you piss her off, then she is a wild hell cat… Please tell me what you think.
