Futile Courting

Thoughts raced through Sesshomaru's head as he sat under the tree. Somewhere in the middle of a complaint about Inuyasha's special treatment of bathroom privlages and the fact that he gets to have whole seven course meals for breakfast, he stopped himself. Whining wasn't his thing to do. But... It was unfair! He'd always been the one to get everything! Inuyasha was second! Well, actually, he wasn't born yet during those times, but still! This calls for action. Operation, show some love!

Going outside of the palace gates, he searched on the outskirts of the villages for his target. Seven villages later, he was starting to lose hope when he found it. A young coyote demoness. Bingo. Sidiling up to her, he sat down on the bench she was sitting on outside of a teahouse. "So, I couldn't help but notice that you might've been checking me out." Might've?! The girl giggled and blushed. He pressed on. "I really think that me and you would make very good mates." The girl's face flushed even more. Sesshomaru got ready for the big finale. Taking her hands into his, he stared deep into her green eyes and said in a low, husky tone, "Miss, I want you to bear my children." That did it for her! Immediatly she threw herself at Sesshomaru and screamed, "Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes! Of course I'll have your children! Do you want ten of them? Or perhaps twenty?"

Why does something tell me that I've made a huge mistake? Sesshomaru thought. But there was no turning back now. The girls' parents had heard his proposal and her answer and were also thrilled that he was going to betroth their daughter. I have to make this work. It's the only way father will see that he's made a mistake in making Inuyasha Lord of the Western Lands. "So, how about we go see my father and see what he thinks of this arrangement?" Grabbing her hand, he led her toward the palace. Well, actually, it was the other way around, considering she was pulling him to his own home.

Crashing through the door, not even bothering to knock, she screamed out for all to hear, "Me and Prince Sesshomaru are getting married!" Izayoi descended down the steps slowly, but stopped when she saw her step-son. "You're pathetic excuse of a son is here," she called back up the steps, then contiued going down.

Getting to in front of the girl, she walked around her, criticizing everything about her. "Hm, too tall. And you're hair's too dark. And you're skin's too white, like that woman that your fiancee worships." Here she paused to see how the girl would react. She was still smiling just as bright as ever. What?! That'd have any other girl pissed! I guess she's one of those dumb-demon types. But really her body is perfect! I can't let him marry her. She's way prettier than I am!

By this time, Inutaisho had come down also. "Humph," was all he said, giving her the once-over. "What's your name?" he barked, as though she were one of his army soldiers. "Keita." "Hm, Keita, huh? Sounds like a bitch name." "Well, sir, my father always said that he'd make a proud bitch out of me yet." "Are you proud?" "Of what?" "You know, being a bitch, and...whatnot?" Here, Keita stood up even taller. "Yes I am!" Sesshomaru face-palmed.

His father turned to him. "Well, looks like you got yourself one hell of a dumb bitch. I wish all the luck in the world for your retarded children. Now Inuyasha, he gots himself a fine young woman, a western belle. That gal Oragame Hikashi, or something like that, can't remember her name. But, boy, oooh weeee! She fine!" Sesshomaru quirked an eyebrow at his father's sudden change of accent, him now sounding like he was from the south and talking like their lizard enimies.

"Her name's Kagome," Inuyasha said, joining them at the sound of her name. "And we're not going together, nor or we ever going to be going together." A loud silence filled the air, save for Izayoi bringing down her fist and whispering "Yes! Momma's boy for life!" Inutaisho gave his son a stern look. "Now son, you sure you want to do that? I mean, me personally, I think that that other priestess--what's her name? Kikyou?--is way better looking than Kagome. And besides, Kagome's still wet behind the ears. But Kikyou! Man, that's a woman there! She'll know how to treat a man!" Then he muttered, "Better than your mother. Me peronally, I'd take 'em both, ya know what I mean?" He elbowed Inuyasha for emphasis, but the half demon was shaking his head.

"No father, I don't want either of them. I've decided on someone entirely different. Someone who I will always protect and will always have my back. Someone who will ride or die with me like Bonnie and Clyde. Someone who I know is fresh to death in the best nothin' less. Search around the world and you'll never find another shortie like mine. She's gonna be my everything--" "Okay, enough with the lyrics! Who the hell is it!" Inutaisho screamed.

A/N: Not all of what Inuyasha said were lyrics. When I got to the part about ridin' or dyin', that idea came from an old Jay-Z song that I think he did with Beyonce (can't remember it's name.). But when he said he needs someone "fresh to death... " that come from the song "Can't Stop, Won't Stop". The part about a "shortie like mine", well, considering that that song is out currently, everyone should know where I got that from. It's Bow Wow's song featuring Chris Brown. And last but not least, when Inuyasha said that she's "gotta be my everything," that came from the chours to the B2K song, "Gotta Be". And there you have it. Hip-hop meets Inuyasha! And now back to the show!

Inuyasha took a deep breath, then said, "Yura." Izayoi stopped walkin' it out ("Walk it out", UNK) about her son not getting married and stared at him. "Boy, you done lost yo damn mind!" She said, seething. She looked as though she could transform her own self. Inuyasha started backing up. "Now, now, Mother, don't lose your temper! You know what the doctor's said about your blood pressure--" "I don't give a damn about my blood pressure! How can you do this to me! I'm your mother! I thought you loved me!" "I do! But I love Yura also!" "No! You can't love that skank ass whore! The mini skirt won't be invented for another four-hundred fifty years!" (an example of mixing both worlds. You can already tell that they mostly live in the 21st century.)

Advancing toward him, she poked him in his chest with her claw-like nails. "Inuyasha Walter Frances Giligan the third, you have forced me to do something that I really didn't want to do!" Turning to one of the servants, she said, "Bring me something sweet and smothered in butter!" Back to Inuyasha: "See? You made me break my diet! And you say you love me!" She ran out of the room crying.

Looking at his father, Inuyasha waited for his comment. None came except, "As long as she can rock your world in bed, I don't care who you marry. Wish I hadn't went through with that damn marriage with your mother. I was supposed to get her to the alter, then dump her! You know, a little stunt like Jackass, but the bitch grabbed a hold of my boys and forced me to say I do! Now look, seven hundred years later and I'm miserably married."

A/N: Inutaisho and Izayoi having been married for seven hundred years came from a theory among fanfictions (or maybe just one specific person. If I'm stealing your idea, please excuse me!) that when demons mate, (or marry?) their life-lines become intertwined. If something should happen to Inutaisho, Izayoi's life would continue where she's at now, at perhaps 35, but she'd start aging like a human again.

His father left out to attend to Izayoi and see how she was doing. Despite their quarrels, some where deep, deep, deep, deep, deep, deep down to the fifteenth power down deep, he loved her. Inuyasha and Sesshomaru caught eyes. "Whore lover," Sesshomaru said. "At least my girl knows how to work a DVD player." Inuyasha countered. Looking over to where Keita had went and noticing her examining the DVD player in the living room, he said, "You have to plug it in first, dumb-ass." A look of pure surprise came over her face and she grabbed the end of the cord and examined it. "Plug it in!" Inuyasha repeated. She evidently didn't know what he ment and stuck the plug between her boobs.

Inuyasha raised an eyebrow this time. "Well, looks like we got ourselves some porno chicks." Patting him on the chest, he said, "Well, tell me how that all works out for you," and left. Sesshomaru strode over to the coyote demoness and took the DVD player plug out of her breasts. He quickly broke it down to her that the wedding was off, and surprisingly she took in good stride. Skipping out the door, she went back home as though nothing had happened. Though Sesshomaru couldn't help but notice that A, her kimono was a bit short, and B, that she was now posted up on the corner of the teashop as though waiting for somebody.

Sesshomaru shook his head. So, operation show some love had backfired. He'd have to try again. Dinner was only a few hours off. He'd be ready then.


Okay, I think I might have had too many author notes in this chapter. Sorry, I just wanted to explain things as I went rather than doing it all here and having to make you go back and look at the text. So, yay or nay, did you like or not like this chapter? As always, please review!
