Little Inuyasha by cassandra

Chapter 9

Sesshomaru was begining to tire. His mind was elsewhere and he was making sloppy mistakes. Naraku had even come close to severing his head once. If it hadn't been for Kouga's warning, he'd be dead. He had wounds all over his body and was hardly able to stand. Naraku knocked his sword from his hands and was about to deliver the final blow, when they all heard a familiar roar.

"Windscar!"

The attack hit Naraku and threw him into a tree. Everyone turned to look at Inuyasha in shock. There he was in all his glory. He was an adult again but something was different about him.

"Inuyasha! You're back! But you're not a half demon anymore!" Shippo yelled as he climbed down from a tree he'd been hiding in. Everyone looked at him a little closer. Shippo was right! He still had his puppy ears but he was now a full demon. He patted Shippo's head before running up to Sesshomaru, who was on his knees.

"Did ya miss me?" Inuyasha asked smirking.

"In-Inuyasha? But, h-how?" Sesshomaru panted.

"Don't worry about that now. I'll explain later. Now, you go relax and let me finish off this bastard. I owe him an ass whoppin for what he's done to you and Kagome." Inuyasha growled. Sesshomaru didn't get a chance to say anything to him. In the blink of an eye, Inuyasha was battling Naraku. Everyone watched in awe as he brought Naraku down. He was faster and stronger than he was before.

"Damn! He looks like he's as strong and as fast as you are now!" Kouga told Sesshomaru.

"Indeed." Sesshomaru said as pride filled him. He was proud of his little brother. He was holding his own out there. Naraku was pretty banged up but Inuyasha didn't even have a scratch on him. They all watched as Inuyasha pinned Naraku to a tree.

"Any last words asshole?" Inuyasha spat.

"Go to hell!" Naraku yelled.

"No thanks. That spot's reserved for you." Inuyasha said before plunging his sword into Naraku's chest.

Kai had to look away when Naraku screamed out in pain. He knew Naraku had to die. Hell he was willing to kill him himself. Still though, he was his son. The part of him that was a parent didn't want him to die, but Naraku deserved it for all the evil he had done. He watched as Inuyasha threw him on the ground and spit on him.

"Rot in hell ya evil bastard. Give Kikyo my regards." Inuyasha said before walking over to Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru had Kagome clutched to his heart as he sobbed her name over and over again. Inuyasha rolled his eyes before bopping him upside the head.

"Quit your bawlin and bring her back! Father gave ya your damn sword for a reason dumbass!"

"I'm not sure how it works. I've only tried it one other time." Sesshomaru said in shame. The one time he actually wanted to use the sword, and he didn't even know how to work the sword he once deemed as useless.

"Well what did you do that time?"

"I asked it to carry out my will." When Sesshomaru said this, his sword started pulsing with a blue light. He gently laid her down before standing and swiping the sword above her body. He waited to see if it would work. He hoped and prayed to god that it would. It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Then she gasped for air. Sesshomaru threw the sword to the ground and gathered Kagome into his arms as he wept for joy.

"S-Sess-hom-aru. C-can't br-breath." She gasped as he held her too tight.

He pulled back and smiled. "Sorry love, I'm just glad you're ok. Don't ever scare me like that again!"

She smiled. "I won't. Where's Inuyasha? Is he still sick?" She asked.

"I'm right here Kagome." Inuyasha stepped up to her and smirked at her shocked expression.

"You're you again. Well, almost. You're a full demon now! How?" She asked when she noticed his purple markings.

He shrugged. "I think I accidently made a wish when I was a pup."

"Oh. You really do look like him. Except for the ears that is." She said.

"I look like who?" Inuyasha asked.

"Your dad. I saw him while...while I was dead. He told me he was proud of the both of you. He told me to tell you that he'd always be watching over the both of you. He said he was sorry that he didn't get to see you grow up and that he was glad Sesshomaru reconnected with you."

"Wow. So you actually got to see my old man huh?" Inuyasha asked smiling.

"Yeah. He said one other thing though. He said you both need a woman in your lives so stop wasting time and find yourselves a mate." She said.

"I've already found the woman I want." Sesshomaru said before kissing her. They broke apart when someone cleared their throat. It was Kai. Sesshomaru stood and helped Kagome up.

"Kagome, allow me to introduce you. This is your father, lord Kai of the northern lands."

"So, you're my dad?" She asked nervously.

"Yes." Kai said as she walked slowly up to him. She surprised him by throwing herself into his arms and cried.

"I'm so happy! I've been looking forward to meeting you since I found out that you were still alive!"

"I've missed you Kagome. My little girl has finally come home to me." He said as tears of joy filled his eyes as well. Everyone decided to give them some privacy. Inuyasha went over to where Sesshomaru stood and they stared at each other in silence before Inuyasha spoke.

"So, you and Kagome huh?"

"Yes. I love her very much. Are you...are you angry?"

Inuyasha smiled. "Hell no. You guys make a good couple."

"But, I thought you loved her?" Sesshomaru asked confussed. He was so sure that his brother was in love with Kagome.

"No fuckin way man! Dude, don't get me wrong. She's a nice girl and all but she's more like a sister to me. So she's all yours bro." Inuyasha said smiling at him.

"I'm afraid not. She has an intended." Sesshomaru said sighing.

"She does? Well who the hell is it?"

"This Sesshomaru does not know."

"But I do." Kai said smugly as he walked up to them.

Inuyasha looked at him. "So you're Kagome's old man huh? She looks a lot like ya."

"Yes, I'm her father and you must be Taisho's youngest. You really do look like him you know."

"Keh. Can't say I remember." Inuyasha said crossing his arms. "Hey! Wait a sec! You never told us who Kagome's intended was! We need to know so we can go kick his ass!"

Kai chuckled. "I see you get sidetracked just as easily as your father did as well."

"Hey! I do not! Now tell us who he is!"

Kai laughed. "You have his lack of patience and temper as well I see. Don't worry. You'll find out soon enough." He laughed again as he walked away and heard Inuyasha growl.

Sesshomaru sighed. "He told me the exact same thing the other day. I guess the BOTH of us will have to wait."

"Aw man! But I wanna know now! Why can't he just tell us? Now I see where Kagome get's her annoying side." Inuyasha mumbled. Sesshomaru chuckled and ruffled Inuyasha's hair.

"Silly pup." Sesshomaru froze when he realized what he did and what he'd just called Inuyasha.

"Sorry Inuyasha. I had almost forgotten you were no longer a pup." Sesshomaru said looking away sadly. A part of him wished that Inuyasha had stayed a pup so he could have more time with him.

"I don't mind...Shomu." He whispered. Sesshomaru looked at him in shock.

"You...you remember." Sesshomaru said in wonder.

Inuyasha nodded. "I remember everything. I want to thank you for taking care of me and for looking out for me. Especially...especially when you stood up for me at that village. That meant a lot to me. A part of me wishes that I coulda stayed a pup. Then...then I could stay with you and Kagome." He said as his ears drooped. Sesshomaru put his hand on Inuyasha's shoulder.

"You are welcome to stay with me...little brother."

"A-are ya sure? Cause I don't wanna be no trouble or nothin."

Sesshomaru smirked. "Inuyasha, you're such a silly pup."

"Yeah, and you'll always be my big brother Shomu." Inuyasha teased.

"Hey muttface! I gotta hand it to ya, you kicked ass out there." Kouga said walking up to them. When Inuyasha heard him call him muttface, his ears drooped.

"Muttface? But...you said we were friends." Inuyasha said sadly. He was actually hoping to keep the friendship he'd started with kouga while he was cursed as a pup.

"Yeah right! When the hell did I say that mutt?"

Inuyasha growled. "Then why the hell did you give me Toshi? Huh Mr. wolfie?" He yelled. Kouga looked at Sesshomaru with wide eyes.

Sesshomaru smirked. "He remembers."

"Damn right I remember! I remember everything. I even remember YOU tryin to get me to kill that little white bunny I found. Who the hell does that?! You don't go around tellin kids they're supposed to kill animals!"

"Wow. I...uh...I guess you do remember everything huh?" Kouga said blushing. Inuyasha smirked. He knew EXACTLY why Kouga was blushing.

"Oh yeah, I remember it ALL. Like how you would talk baby talk to me when it was just you and me around. Or how you'd tell me how cute I was and you wanted kids just like me one day. I remember walking in on you at the hot spring one night and saw you makin out with that dude who you thought was a girl. Oh the look on your face when you saw his dick and realized he was a man was priceless! But my most favorite thing of all, is when you'd do those lousy imatations of Sesshomaru." Inuyasha said smirking as Kouga blushed a cherry red. Sesshomaru lifted a brow at that last statement.

"Imatations? Do tell." Sesshomaru said.

"Oh, it was n-nothin much. H-honestly, they weren't that good." Kouga said nervously.

"Come now, don't be modest wolf. I'm sure they were good. So tell me Inuyasha, what were they?" Sesshomaru said as he looked at his claws and then looked up at Kouga with a wicked glint in his eyes. Kouga gulped when Sesshomaru smirked.

"Sure thing bro!" Inuyasha said smirking at a wide eyed Kouga. By the time he'd told Sesshomaru everything Kouga had said or made fun of about him, Sesshomaru was storming away from Kouga who now had a few lumps on his head as well as a black eye.

"Damn it! Why did ya have to tell him all of that pup!" Kouga yelled rubbing his head.

"Aw shut it Mr. wolfie!" Inuyasha yelled back. When it dawned on them what they had called each other they both burst out in laughter.

Kai looked over at them and lifted a brow. "You two are very strange charactors." He said.

"You have no idea." Shippo mumbled.

"Hey!" Both Kouga and Inuyasha yelled. Kai laughed at them as he watched Kagome and Sesshomaru kiss. Kouga noticed and smirked.

"So when are ya gonna tell them?" Kouga asked.

"Tell them what?" Inuyasha asked. Kai smirked and told Inuyasha about Kagome's intended.

"So they actually thought that I was her intended and he was just gonna let her go?" Inuyasha asked in shock. He couldn't beleive that his brother was willing to sacrifice his happiness for him.

"Wow. I never thought he'd do something like that. He really is a good guy ain't he?"

"There's a lot you don't know about Sesshomaru my boy." Kai said patting his shoulder.

"So who is Kagome's intended if it ain't me?" Kouga and Kai both smirked. When they told him who it was and that Sesshomaru said he was going to challenge him, Inuyasha laughed. This was just too funny! There was no way in hell that Sesshomaru could kill Kagome's intended.

"Oh I can't wait to see Shomu's face when he finds out who her intended is!" Inuyasha said laughing.

"Shomu?" Kai said lifting a brow.

Inuyasha blushed. "Uh...I mean Sesshomaru."

Kouga laughed. "That's what the pup called him. He called me Mr. wolfie."

Inuyasha growled. "Shut it wolf! I was just a pup when I called you guys that!"

Kouga smirked. "You still are a pup."

"Alright boys, settle down! Geez Inuyasha. You've only been back to normal for like ten minuets and you're already picking fights!" Kagome said rolling her eyes when she walked up to them. They all laughed when he pouted.

"I hate to interrupt you all but there is something that must be done." Kai said walking up to Kagome.

"What is it...dad?" It felt weird calling this man she hardly knew dad.

"I must break the seal on you to return you to your true form." He said.

"O-ok. What do I have to do?" She asked nervously.

Kai smiled. "Relax daughter, there's nothing to be scared of. Just close your eyes."

"Ok." She closed her eyes and waited. He put his hands on her head and closed his eyes as he began to chant.
