Chapter
7: What happened?
The
palace was deathly quiet. A small crowd of servants stood outside of Lord
Sesshoumaru’s private bedchamber including Sango,
Kagome, and Miroku as healers roamed in and out. Of
the servants who were outside, they carried various bowls and phials of dry
healing herbs, a mixture of sleeping draughts, strips of cloth, teas and
anything else the healers could think of.
Inside
the bedchamber, Sesshoumaru knelt quietly by his bed carefully watching every
move the healers made when they treated his mate’s more obvious wounds, but for
some reason the healers couldn’t find why the inu-hanyou
was bleeding (at least spotting) from his lower region.
The
door slid open to reveal the tall menacing form of the great dog general, Toga.
Every one scattered out the way. He hauled his eldest son up by the throat,
growling. Sesshoumaru held his tongue. If he said one word now would not be in
his best interest.
“All
of you, leave us!” Toga commanded.
“But my Lord? The young-”
The
dog demon’s lavender stripes stretched across his face and gold colored eyes
instantly turned red. He dropped Sesshoumaru unceremoniously to the floor and
lashed out at the servant for daring to defy a direct order.
Toga
was breathing heavily through flared nostrils. Blood was now dripping from his
claws. The healer was holding his mangled arm.
“Let
that be a warning to you. Now, go! Before I do more than cut
up your arm.”
The
healer ran from the room leaving another servant to slide the door close, and
began to clean away the blood trail. Toga’s eyes ebbed to their natural state
before refocusing his attention on his young son.
He
could smell the faint scent of sex on Inuyasha as well as on Sesshoumaru and
round the room. Growling again, Toga barked out, “I should cut you down,
Sesshoumaru! You had no right to claim Inuyasha. What am I going to tell to the
Tai-youkai of the Northern land?”
“Tell
him what you like, Father. I have no wish to be mated to his bitch of a
daughter.”
Seeing
red again, Toga got ready to lunge for his oldest. He stopped; however, when a slight
whimper reached his ears, which was a good thing because he probably would have
killed Sesshoumaru.
“Sess-Sesshoumaru?”style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial Narrow"'>
Ignoring
his father, the future lord went to his mate. “I am here, Inuyasha.”
“What-what
happened?”
At
the tenderness in Sesshoumaru’s voice, Toga quietly exited the room. He would
decide what to do about their mating later. Right now he had to question the
humans that were currently in the dungeon.
“Those
ningens started fighting and threw you into a tree
breaking your arm, but you are still injured.” Sesshoumaru’s eyes gave away
more information Inuyasha has ever seen in them. “I smell death upon you.”
The
inu-hanyou shut his eyes. He knew that it would come
to this one day – it was just a matter of time. Inuyasha was dying.

The
dungeon was just like any other dungeon except this one was magically warded
apparently against demons. Dante walked the length of his cell not much to do
as his weapons at least Ebony and Ivory were taken from him. class=SpellE>Alastor (god bless the sword) didn’t take kindly to other
people handling it other than him or his brother. Trish couldn’t even wield the
temperamental sword. His thoughts strayed to his wife.
Was
his life so fucked up that he was so lonely without his mate that he married
the only remnant of him? He scoffs as he hatefully eyed the jerk in the cell
across from his. Then the inevitable happened – his stomach grumbled – loudly.
His main priority was getting something to eat instead of getting out.
“Hey!
You know we need to eat!”

“Does
any body hear me?! I said we need some food down here!”
urrrghstyle='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Arial Narrow"'>
“Oh,
man, this sucks.”
“Will
you be quiet?” Vergil hissed.
Dante
chuckled. “Well, that’s a first? You wanting style='mso-bidi-font-style:normal'>me to be quiet. Huh, I thought you like
hearing me scream?”
The
older twin stood to face his mirror image. Vergil
smirked. “Oh, but I do…especially when you do that trick with your ton-”
Footsteps
coming down the stone stair ceased their playful banter. The twins eyed the
silver haired demon – he was short compared to them considering they stood at a
nose bleed height of six foot seven.
“I
want some answers,” Toga demanded peering into the cells to take a good look at
them. As unbelieving as it was, Toga, for all his proper etiquette for
political speak he could not form one single word as he stared at his friend’s
offspring, but it couldn’t be, could it?
“And
maybe we have them,” Dante flippantly said closing his eyes to the angry
protest of his stomach. “But before we answer yours we have a few questions of
our own.”
Silence
regain before an agreement was made.
“So
ask away,” Dante said as he settled himself down on his cot that was not long
enough for him.
“Where
did you get this sword?”
“It’s
mine,” Vergil deadpanned.
“Impossible!”
“Believe
what you like,” Vegil replied in his usual devil may
care attitude.
“The
true owner of Yamato is not you.”
“Yes,
I know, it’s Sparda.”
(Gasp)
“What did you do? Kill him for it?”
Unfortunately,
the wards also dampen one’s sense of smell. So, Toga had no way of identifying
the twins.
“I
wish, but no and since you must know – Yamato was gifted to me upon class=SpellE>Sparda’s death. It’s my inheritance from my Father.”
Golden
eyes lit up the dim holding block. Then Dante jumped up practically dancing
around his tiny space. “You’re the dog in the picture,” Dante stated proudly.
“Make
sense, brother.”
They
tuned out Toga and carried on as if he wasn’t there.
“class=SpellE>Nono, Verge, remember when Dad would always talk about his
adventures in the Western Lands of old
his friend the dog general who had hair as silver as the full moon and eyes as
intense like the sun. Dad would always point excitedly at the painting.”
Realization
dawned in the other quicksilver orbs.
“class=SpellE>Inu no Taisho,” Vergil softly
whispered.
Coming
back to his senses somewhat, Toga asked, “No one should be able to handle a
sword as powerful as this.”
“But
you’re able to hold it?” Dante interjected confused.
“class=SpellE>Hmph, it was my fang that was infused with class=SpellE>Sparda’s blood to make the blade indestructible – in other
words – Yamato can slice through anything.”
Laughing
erupted from the young twin. Vergil merely gritted
his teeth in aggravation at his brother. Dante always acted so damn childish.
“The
Great Dog Demon, Toga, we are the sons of Sparda.
Now, we’ve answered your questions, can we go?”
Another
rumble from Dante’s empty tummy echoed throughout the otherwise silent stone
walls.
Toga
gave them a hearty smiled and waved his hand. The cell doors creaked opened.
Who have thought, Sparda having pups of his own?
Following
behind them the dog demon took in the twins
playfulness. It would be interesting to see how they get along with Inuyasha
and Sesshoumaru.

A/N:
How was that? I’ve brought in Toga now, so everything is set. What will happen
once the dust has settled? Will Sesshoumaru be able to save Inuyasha? Why isn’t
he healing? Well, to find out, stay tuned for the next chapter.

“I
know that you are here, Inuyahsa.”
/class=SpellE>Shimatta/
Inuyasha mental cursed.
“Your
rancid stench is all around this majestic place.”
“class=SpellE>Wh-what
do you want?”
A
clawed hand shifted through wet silvery locks of hair.
“Why,
do you tease me, Inuyasha?”
“Huh?”
Not really understanding why Sesshoumaru would say such a thing to him.
“I
can’t stand the sight of you because of your filthy human blood, but I…”
