Meeting the Family (open)

[taisho]

((*shrugs* i wasn't sure where you wanted this thread to be so yeah...her house can be on the out side of it or somthing..))


Inu Taisho makes his way to the so called house he looks up at it and smiles it hadn't changed at all. He walked up the stairs and made his way to the main door where to two guards stand, they both point there spears at Inu Taisho. One steps forward and places the head of the spear at Inu Taisho's neck. and then begins to speak. "Who goes? What is your reason here?"

Inu Taisho only laughed slightly and looked at the man, who steps back and places his spear to the side. "My lord..I'm so sorry." The two demons open the door and bow deeply. Inu Taisho walks into the building and turns back around. and leaves at the two men as they close the door. He takes a deep breath., he was kind of scared to be here again, how would she take Inu Taisho back,or would she? this question was running around Inu Taisho's mind.

He begins to walk to wards the throne room once he gets there he See's her, she hadn't changed, she was the most beautiful demon he had ever laid eyes on. her hair was back in a long pony tail as it was all ways her eyes somewhat closed she was wearing her normal clothing. and she had one leg up somewhat. she had a peace of paper in her hand what she places down quickly.

"My love?"

"I have returned Sakura."

She stands up and begins to walk to wards Inu Taisho, after a few moments she gets right up close to him she places one hand on his. "Why did you leave me for her?" Inu Taisho didn't know what to say. that question even came into his mind. "I don't know how to answer that question. I'm sorry." She turns away from him and removes her hand and looks to the ground. "For know that well do. Why have you come?"

"It is about are son. He is on his way."

Ah so it is true. I have heard story's about Sesshomaru. Is it true that he is with a women who is a half demon. Is this true."

Inu Taisho only nods and looks at her with a smile. He is on his way with her. I have seen the girl and talked to her.She seems nice. The Question is what well you do?" The female demon just turns to face Inu Taisho and places her hand on his right side of his face and kisses his cheek and returns to her chair. and sits down. "Come sit. She waves her hand to her left side. where another chair sat. InuTaisho makes his way up there and sits down beside her. "Now we wait"

[Lord Sesshomaru]

Oh, he didn't want to do this. Not at all. He just...couldn't stand the thought of seeing his mother right now. Including since his instincts screamed for him to just turn back around...and walk away. There was just something not right. And he showed it willingly. How much he did not want to be here right now. But Brigantia was here with him. She wanted to come and see his mother so....

Fine. He could live through it. Although he would rather be anywhere but here. The thoughts passed as Sesshomaru came toward his mother's domain. Taking the first steps up those large steps into the main room....

Sesshomaru stopped when his eyes turned toward the two figures sitting beside each other. His mother...and...his father. He stared at the two, making sure that he kept the shock off his face. Immediately his eyes narrowed as he glared at his father.

How dare he! How dare he sit beside his mother like that, as if he belonged! As if he had not left her for a human. As if...as if nothing had happened....

It was like it had been....centuries ago...

((ok))

[Birdie]

Brignatia walked behind her mate. Her lrge eyes were half lidded, and she was able to completely mask her excitement. She was surprised, truthfully. The was only one thing that could top this moment,, and that was when Sesshomaru had first kissed her. It had not been what most women dreamed of... but then, Brigantia had never been most women. She was almost completely hidden there, behind Sesshomaru. She had always been small, and used to being dwarfed by others. When they stopped, she came to stand beside her lord. Her large eyes widened. Her 'mother' was, well, beautiful. Not as beautiful as her birth mother, but very pretty. Perhaps more so than the little demoness, at least, in Brigantia's opinion. She never did have a good image of herself.

She gently placed her hand on Seshomaru's, her aura wrapping around him, trying to calm him. He should not be angry. She knew exactly how he felt. About betrayal, about, well, everything. She understood emotions better than most. She then turned, putting her hands together in front of her chest, as if in prayer, then bowed. "Otou-sama..." She paused as a little butterfly, which fluttered on her silvery hair, told her the woman's name. "Sakura-sama..." She stood up, her face stoic as she guaged Sesshomaru's reaction, ready to use her aura to calm him again.

Brigantia looked the same as she usually did. Tan skin on a heart shaped face, large black eyes, no whites. He hair contrasting with her entire body. A perfect silver, though it's shortness added to her child-like nature. She was dressed in a lilac kimono decorated with little flowers, vining off of each other. Amongst the flowers there was a crane, standing in a pool of blue water which ha dbeen died into the lilac. She was proud of this dress, and deemed it her best work yet. That is why she wore this.

[taisho]

A small smile comes across Inu Taisho face to see his son some what happy. but then he seen the anger in his eyes when he seen his own father besides his mother. that must have gotten Sesshomaru angry.

"Hello Sesshomaru.Its been a while."

The women stands up and begins to walk toward Sesshomaru and the half demon. Once she got close she stoped and looked at Birdie she couldn't believe it. She was truly a butterfly demon. She sighed pretty loudly and turns back around and sits back down on her chair.

"Tell me Sesshomaru. Why are you still so angry at your own father. And don't give me the same thing about him leaving me for a human. I have heard that hundreds of times from you.I'll deal with that problem.But tell me why you are so mad at your father?"

"Tell me Sesshomaru has your goal changed from last time we really talked?

[Lord Sesshomaru]

Brigantia was at least, a little help for Sesshomaru at the moment. She did keep him calm, but he was still angry. To think that his father was so welcomed back since he had left. He couldn't even stand to look at his parents. Not together like this. Not as if mates again. With narrowed eyes, he did not dare to meet their gaze. Not his mothers, nor his father.

Sesshomaru did not say anything when greeted by his mother, which was a normal thing, and he did not look at her even when she walked to him and inspected Brigantia. He tried his best to ignore that loud sigh of hers too.

And then he was being bombarded with questions. From his mother, and then from his father. About his goal, if changed, and why he hated his father. His eyes narrowed, and he hated standing there, being antagonized as he was. He didn't want to answer. For his mother, he had already answer plenty of times. And if she wasn't willing to accept the answers he had given before, then why answer her again?

And his goal. Had it changed? He still wished to be powerful, yes. That was his goal. It was all the same. Nothing could change his goal. He wouldn't allow anything to sidetrack him.

But he couldn't find himself to answer to any of there questions. If this was the only reason they had brought him here, then he should just turn now and go back home. It wasn't worth it. For them to try and understand him when what he had given them wasn't enough.

[Birdie]

Brigantia looked, in a word, surprised. She took a step back when the questions had been asked. When she regained her composure she looked at the ground, trying not to say a word. These might be her new parents, but what right did they have to ask these questions of her Master. Her hands balled into fists and she closed her eyes, breathing deeply to calm herself. The butterfly in her short hair fluttered in agitation. It picked up on her emotions, and obviously wanted to help her in someway. Slowly Brigantia opened her mouth, her eyes were aflame with some sort of hidden rage that she rarely showed. Her tone was soft, calm, yet held a hint of something else.

"Why do you ask such things of Sesshomaru-sama?" she paused, staring atraight at the pair, her chin lifted in defiance. "You, niether of you, should ask someone questions so close to one's heart... Especially if you are not prepared to actually listen." She took a step foreward. She was repared to do anything for him. It was her human side that made her this way... Her demonic side would have been completely detached from this physical world. "How could you ever understand, if you do not think his answers true? I beleive he has every reason in the world to hate his father... If you can not see it then you are blind." She direced this last bit at Sakura. She then turned on poor Inu Taisho.

"And what of his goals? What are they to you when you have none of your own. You can not relate." She hsook her head. "He walks in here for the first time in many years of seeing you, Otou-sama and all youc an say is 'What are your goals'... What sort of father are you." She glared at him, tears in her large eyes. Her entire body was trembling with pent up rage... Anger that had been put aside for two years. Their sudden demands of her mate had been the grain that tipped the weight. Her anger was spilling over, and that was dangerous. She turned away from them, going back to her place.

"The truth can not be avoided, no matter how much you do not desire to hear it." She stated, not daring to look at them for fear that a side of her, previously un-shown to Sesshomaru, might appear. Epsilon and she were the same. Epsilon held a different personality, but Brigantia still held a dangerous quality as the re-incarnate of evil itself. The butterfly was dancing about her, a few more had joined it and attempted to calm her down with a soft thrum, close to the one Birdie would make. This helped her gain control and her aura grew for a moment, then shrank again. A calmer Brigantia stood in the place of an angry one. She seemed back to normal, save for the tears that finally fell. She had not known such anger exisisted with in her. And this was not the impression she wanted to make.

[taisho]

Inu Taisho sighs he some what agreed with what birdie had said, and some of the things she said where not true, yes he had s goal in life and he had done it. even protecting the ones he loved but Sesshomaru was slightly different in his mind. He would liked to hear what Sesshomaru would have said. Truly he never recalled Sesshomaru ever telling him what he felt of his father. If he hated his father so much why should Sesshomaru just hold it back for all these years. Was he still angry what sword he left for him. Was it because he gave the sword he wanted so badly to his half brother?

At this moment Sakura was a little angry how dare this little wench answer every signal question what she had asked but in a way she under stood where she was coming from. She looked over to Inu Taisho and seen the puzzled look on his face.

"For starters we are sorry for acting this way. We had no idea that you where a half demon until we seen you. Inu Taisho wasn't sure.Sesshomaru...We love you, thats all we really want to say. you all ready now i do. But your father cares for you. Please...for me do not hate him for the rest of your life. It well get you no where. Trust me at this."

[Lord Sesshomaru]

Sesshomaru was taken by surprise by Brigantia's sudden anger, and how she spoke to his parents. It was something he had not ever expected from his little butterfly. He barely showed any of his surprise, but it was still there, since he looked at her so intently.

Sesshomaru didn't show it...but he was thankful to her. Backing him up as she was. He only expected her to stand beside him, and not say anything at all. But he was glad that she had gotten angry. Including since it was something he had never seen of Brigantia.

Sesshomaru turned his head to look back at his parents. This time, he looked at them in those golden orbs that he both had received from them. He had kept a little bit more to himself then what he had always told his mother on why he hated his father. There was a little bit more in it.

But he could never tell them. Never. They wouldn't understand. And he was an adult, so he didn't understand it that much either. He knew...this...sibling jealousy. It was just not tetutsaiga...it was everything. And when brought down to the subject, each time he would find more and more reasons why he hated his father. He gave Inuyasha things Sesshomaru had never recieved.

"Where I wish to go, it does not matter if I care none for my father or not." he said to his mother, to what she had to say. Hating his father would get him nowhere? How could he trust her on this. He was a back-stabbing cheat, and she was so willing to take him back.

I bet if the tables were turned, his father would never take her back.

And he does not care for me...

[Birdie]

((damn you Sesshomaru *must listen to song*))



Could they be anymore stupid? It took all of her self control to keep from shouting. "How do we know you will never leave again? What proff do we have that you will stay? You have not shown yourself to be trustworthy. The only thing one can be sur eof is that if another pretty face comes along you shall leave again." Being in this place. It held so many different memories, so many emotions. They were eating her up. He mental block was strong, but... but here the pent up emotions and forgotten memories were stronger. Little figures, thing surpressed, floated about in brigantia's vision. She put a hand to her temple, pressing the heel of her palm against it, closing her eyes. She was getting a headache. "What does being a half-breed have to do with this? What choice have I of my parents?" She asked Sakura coldly, opening her eyes for a moment. So many memories floated about ehr, chains attatched to her, things she wanted to forget but could not. Birdie was tempted to shout 'Stop thinking! Stop Remembering!' But forced herself not to.

She knew, that once the memories made themselves known to her that she would be better. She just had to last a little bit longer, that was all. She took a deep breath, falling completely silent, her hand falling to herside. Her eyes were opened now. Just a little longer. she thought, willing herself to stay strong. She did not want to faint again. Never again. Their ignorance... His parent's ignorance of the true world was not helping her at all. Their lack of knowledge of how the real world worked caused her to become angry, which made her unable to keep her mental block as strong as it should be, therefore keeping her from seeing all these memories.

[taisho]

Sakura stood up she couldn't take any more of this wench talking she made her hands into fists but then brought them back and sighed deeply and looked at Inu Taisho and back at the little butterfly. "Watch your tongue. You have no right talking to Inu Taisho Nor my self that way. We have been alive in this world many moons before you where even born. Even if Sesshomaru cares for you. Neither I or Inu Taisho well ever welcome you Half breed into the family. Sesshomaru knows this, Don't you."


She sits back down and crosses her arms, she couldn't stand a women standing in her home and talk the way she talked to her, she almost went over the deep end, almost to the point Sakura wanted to put her hands around the butterfly's neck and see the last breath of her leave.

Inu Taisho just sat there listen to these two yell back an fourth, he had nothing to say to his own flesh in blood. A man he has gave his life for. He might not seem that way to Sesshomaru or even Birdie but they didn't now the story of his life. the reason why he wasn't there for Sesshomaru when he was little.

[Lord Sesshomaru]

Sesshomaru was once again surprised at Brigantia's words. Her words seemed to have come from his own mind. It was exactly what he thought. Exactly. He had always believed that his father would just leave again. If he could choose a human over Sakura, then there would always be others.

Sesshomaru could tell that something was wrong with Brigantia. If only a little. He could sense her sudden fatigue, if only for a moment. Was she going to feint? Did she need to be alone. He remembered how she just needed to be alone some time.

Sesshomaru turned his attention back to his mother. And what she had to say made him very angry. No right to talk to his parents that way? She had every right! He glared at his mother, eyes narrowing dangerously.

"Inuyasha seems to be welcomed." he scowled. So her being a half-breed, was not welcomed. Then what of Inuyasha? The one that was proof of his father's affair. He couldn't stand to be here anymore. As it seemed, he was not welcome. Brigantia was not welcomed. So what was the point of being here now. He despised both of them.

"This is a waste of my time." he growled, and turned away from his parents. He was going to leave. Then and there. He was through with both of them. If his mother wanted to take back his father, then fine. Just don't bring him into it. If you don't want to face the truth, then fine.

[Birdie]

"If you are not careful... Dark things will happen." she whispered cooly. It was not loud enough for anyone to hear, no one be she. Brigantia lifted her large eyes. They did not hold innocence nor kindness that could usually be seen there. Her aura grew, her body trembled. Anger and murderous intent spileld frm her body as she glared at Sakura. She had no idea she could be so ignorant. "You have spent many moons in this castle. What you have seen of the world is very little. I know a hell of a lot more about this world, I know so many lifetimes and death. I know your past, I know his past. This place reeks of memories. I hold what is forgotten. I see what others wish to forget. I know this earth better than anyone else. I understand every feeling known to humans and demon alike. I know what you do not want to tell." She began to take steps forward, in her hand a katana began to materilaze. Where it came from no one could be sure.

"My entire life I've had to deal with bitches like you telling me I was ugly, that I was a monsterous creature who would kill them. I spent my entire life being run away from when all that happened to make them say this was my birth. To be born from Human and Demons seems to be some sort of sin. If all halfbreeds were given a choice, do you think they would choose to live their lives filled with people who would always hate them? Don't you think they would choose a life where they could be loved by all people and hated only for their actions, not for what they are. A half breed can not control what it is they have been born as. I did not think you so ignorant. But you words are mere proof... You are just as bad as the god damned villagers. Taking away what little I have, making me feel small and insignifigant. I come here with open arms and optimisim. I think of you as a pleasent person, not because I knew this, but because I wanted it to be true. I came here hoping you could show me what it is like to have a mother. But if this is what one calls motherly love then you fail in this deartment." She lifted the katana, pointing it at Sakura.

In a swift movement, to fast for any eyes to see, she cut her wrist. The blood spilled onto the floor. "You had best be careful with your words, mother dearest. I do terrible things... I do not allow others to die peacably. I make sure any being who tortures another learns equal pain. On a physical level though, no living creature could ever understand the emotional, psychological pain of being a half breed."

Sheallowed the katana to fall and dematerialze. She turned away. A small smile appeared on her lips. "It is safe, she had been sealed away. There was danger of her escape." She spoke directly to Sesshomaru. He would understand.

[taisho]

Sakura just laughs at the remakes of the half breed, she truly did not care hat a little girl would say to her. a high level demon, at her level she could just blink and that half demon would be dead in a second. Inu Taisho still sat there grinning some what, he also wanted to see how Sakura would take this half demon in.

"InuYasah welcome into this family, how foolish do you think i am Sesshomaru, not even he is allowed in this family. No humans would ever be allowed. nd if you choose that wench as a mate then you are no longer the ruler of the west lands, do you understand me. Your father well rule those lands and bring peace to are lands."

Sakura stood up and pointed to wards the half breed. "If you ever speak to me like that again or even if i see you. I'll cut your head off and use your skull as a cup." Sakura sits back down and shakes her head, She thought maybe Sesshomaru would understand the rules of begin a ruler would be. 'The humans and demons where never so post to mate. And you..I have no worlds for you why your in this world..maybe a huge mistake. And maybe not even wanted maybe thats why you lived threw so many deaths, but you stand around humans and watched as the ones you so called loved died.I know things about you that you well never know off. Leave at once before i change my mind of not killing you where you stand."

[Lord Sesshomaru]

Sesshomaru said nothing. And he kept his anger, and his surprise hidden from the others. He knew his mother well. But...he had thought that maybe she would have acted differently. He guessed not. Brigantia was the most surprising. Her anger, and the way that she spoke to his mother made him surprised....he had never seen that side of her. It wasn't that bad either. And as she spoke, how she seemed to threaten his mother, he thought for a second that it was Epsilon talking.

Luckily, Brigantia told him otherwise. She was still sealed away.

What he didn't understand, after what Brigantia said, and what his mother said, how his father could just sit there. Grinning. Though he was kind of relieved on what she said. Good. Inuyasha wasn't welcome. But that didn't make sense, for if his father wished it, then she could not say anything against it.

But then...as she continued...his anger began to boil. She wanted to threaten him? Choose between being the ruler of the western lands, and being with Brigantia?

What was even odder was that his mother seemed to not have a problem with either Kohaku, or Rin when he last came here. He glared at her, as she went to talk to Brigantia. She dared to threaten his mate? She dared to threaten him? She dared to say all those things to him?!

"Inuyasha is welcomed in this family, no matter if you like it or not. It is decided by father, who has chosen as such." he growled out. "If you despise humans so much, then how can you stand to be with him again after him being with a human?" he glared at her, eyes narrowing. "You're words make no sense. If you wish to take the lands from me, then go ahead."

At that moment, he was beyond angry. He was pissed. He couldn't believe that he had been brought here for this. His father just sits there, and allow her to say such about half-breeds when he cares so deeply for Inuyasha.

Another reason he could now hate his father. Never defending his own son, even to his mate.

Sesshomaru had had enough of this worthless talk. This stupidity of his mother's words. He glanced toward Brigantia to speak. "We are leaving."

[Birdie]

"Hai my lord... But one last thing." She bowed to him, then turned to her 'mother'. She seemed to be the same Brigantia as before. Kindness rediated from her body as anger had before. She smiled sweetly, brushing her short, somewhat bloody locks from her tan face. "I give you a present mother dearest." She bent down next to the pool of blood and began to write words. These words were of her own language. Lastly she dipped her whole handin the pool before making setting it down at the bottom of the words. There her hands print seeped into the floor and the letters glowed for a moment. In a split second her aura grew then fell. When she stood up she had the same, sweet innocence though she held a great knowledge of what she had just done. She beleived it to be the best for her 'mother'.

"A cruse it is called. But I think of it a blessing. You will begin to see memories, of humans whose lives have been ruined by demons... Of halfbreeds who have had no choice in their life. You will see every horrible and gruesome detail in both your waking minutes and in your sleep. You first memory will be one I have only seen recently. A small girl, no older than Rin-chan. Her dead body cut into pieces, her body parts spread around a house. Before that she had been raped. You will feel the pain of the scene, of the parents, of the siblings. Even of the small child. And you will suffer in silence, as I have. The only person you will be able to speak a word to about these memories is me." She bowed deeply then turned to her 'father'. "Advice to you, sir. A man who listens to his woman is but a fool. A man who allows his woman to roam freely and do what ever it is she wishes, to walk all over the man... that man is no more than a worm, a lowly creature who blindly serves his woman. In truth, you become her man... her slave. That is now our place. A woman is to be a shadow, support for he whom she loves. She gives him strength when no one else can see. That is our place."

She turned on her heel. "Oh, the words will not wash away until you have broken the curse. I fear I can not tell you how to do this. You must find out on your own." She said softly. It was obvious, at this moment, she held a lot more power than she pretended to have. She still acted as if she were the weakest creature with in this relm. She would follow Sesshomaru anywhere, and be weaker than he, always... because it was not right for her to be stronger.
