Have Title and Mate

I’m trying to keep updating seeing as I would love to have more Hiei and Sesshomaru fics out there. I love both guys so much and it’s a shame the pairing isn’t more popular. A friend of mine said that it would soon spread like a wildfire but I don’t see how if no one is reading my fic compared to other fics.

Again I would like to thank all of my reviewers. You make staying up late after work to write worth the lack of sleep.

I do no own Yu-Yu or Inuyasha or the characters I borrow from their creators. I do no make money off of this fic.

Chapter III

Rin walked out into the garden where Sesshomaru and Hiei were taking in the changed Estate. She didn’t even bother to take the time to change from her clubbing clothing. Her friends were upset to hear that she wouldn’t be coming up understood when she told them that her fathers had come into town. Her friends were really lesbians together all three of them. Keiko the youngest was the one turning twenty-one. Rin had been surprised to find out that she wasn’t the oldest out of the four of them. Botan, the one that acted the youngest and at points looked like the youngest was much older than herself and even Bufan, seeing as she was a Fairy Girl, a Grim Reaper of sorts. It was Shizuru that was Rin’s favorite. The woman was funny in a dry way that Rin loved and it was great to have her around when you needed to have some one’s ass kicked.

Shaking the thoughts of her friends out of her head she stopped a few feet in front of Sesshomaru and Hiei who almost on command stepped away from each other. “I’ve got some news. As the Lord of the West and the Heir to the South I thought you should know.”

Hiei and Sesshomaru knew it must have been truly series for Rin to say it like that. “The King of the Makai has died. I don’t know the details as of yet but there will be a tournament in three days. That isn’t much time but I think we all should go and at least show ourselves. It would be the perfect time to tell of the change of Lords here in the West.”

“I agree.”

“I know you wanted to…you agree?” Rin said after Sesshomaru’s agreement. “Okay then, we’ll get all the details together and we’ll talk about it over dinner” Rin said before walking back into the castle and to her mate’s study. Bufan had asked for a place to work while they were in the West and when she granted it to him he returned the favor with a study of her own in the East. It would be used for her quite reading time now but it was her own place in the castle and the only place that Bufan was forced to knock. Rin, following the rules of their studies knocked on Bufan’s door.

“Enter,” said a pacing Bufan from the other side of the door. He was trying to think of a way to stop Rin from entering the tournament but he also knew that she had been training for the last five hundred years for this. Shaking his head he turned when his mate’s scent hit his nose. How did she get so close to him with out him knowing? He was slipping and being so far into thought wasn’t helping in the least.

“Bufan? Are you okay Scales?” Rin asked as she walked into his study seeing him pacing wasn’t something she saw often and it normally meant something bad. Something bad meaning something she wasn’t going to want to hear at this time.

“No everything’s fine my love. Come here,” he said motioning for her to come into his embrace. Being as she could never say no to him she did just that. “But, I don’t think it wise for you to enter this tournament.”

“Bufan nothing will stop me short of my death bed and even then I doubt I wouldn’t just take it lying down. You know that as well as I. I do not wise to sneak around your back but if that is what it takes to get into the tournament then I will be forced to do so,” Rin said in a ‘I will do as I please and never take no as an answer tone.’

Bufan was defeated and he knew it. He couldn’t say no to her like this and even if he did he wouldn’t be singing the same song in the morning. She just had that effect on him, even when she wasn’t his mate. Thinking back now, she had that effect on him since the first time they met. It was strange to think that was one of the many things he loved about this mate. Smiling softly he kissed the top of her head with a little bit of a bend. “Stay with me forever.”

“...and always.” (1)

--

Hiei and Sesshomaru were walking down the path behind Mukuro and Yukina (She came just to watch everyone and play cheerleader.) Rin and Bufan since they lived closer to Yome’s lands seeing as his castle was more to the west than Sesshomaru’s was to the east. (2)

Sesshomaru’s hand would brush against Hiei’s arm at times as though it was hard to believe that they were walking through a forest that was so much like home. The last two days had been spent in the city teaching Sesshomaru (and Hiei) how to live in the modern worlds. Kurama and Yusuke where their teachers but those two could hardly keep their hands off each other much less teach anything. It got to the point that Sesshomaru was ready to just drip his poison acid on them and watch them scream in pain but he was already warned not to use his powers in front of the humans. Just last week he was having a battle in from a village full of the low lives that now ruled a world of their own.

The lord of the West was beginning to worry about other youkai. How had the older and stronger, battle centered youkai survived for so long before the worlds were cut off from each other? King Enma wasn’t some one to mess with so they must have all just gone into the shadows or in some of the cases took over parts of the Makai and made them there own.

That would explain the other places in the Makai that were no longer run by the five lords he was once again a member of. Rin and Bufan must have had it hard with so many younger youkai trying to take the title of lord these days. They had to focus on not one but two lands, two lands that didn’t share a boarder.

Hiei reached out and touched Sesshomaru’s sleeve knowing that he shouldn’t right out touch him even if they were mates when Sesshomaru was this far into thought. “We’re here.”

--

“I will enter under my name. If this is my way into getting back as the Western Lord I will not go under any different name. This Sesshomaru will not take on the name of any other lowly creature.” Sesshomaru said once they told him that it would be in his best interest that he changed his clothing, which he agreed to change it to another white set and his name for entry purposes.

“Let him enter with his real name. It isn’t like we can’t take on anyone that will get in the way.” Kurama said to Rin and Bufan, the ones that thought it should be as such.

“I’m with Rama, many of them, the weaklings, will want to fight the great taboo Lord Sesshomaru Taisho. Oh course they will just be that, weak. The stronger fighters know you already and know that it would be a knock out drag out fight. And I rather have a fight like that than one where I defeat a weak opponent with out much effort.” Yusuke said using the nickname that he had given Kurama over their few months together.

“Not knowing what else to say I think we should just go ahead to get registered,” came Mukuro’s voice after a short pause. She was just arriving when she heard the group talking about what name Sesshomaru should enter under. “Just enter as Sesshomaru Taisho of the West. Who knows they may think your lying.”

--

Koto, smiling like she normally did at this kind of tournaments was sitting at a table when Kurama and Yusuke came up to her ready to sign up. Speaking into a microphone, Koto announced, “Well, isn’t it the creator of this tournament, Yusuke Urameshi and the former Youko, Kurama.”

“Damn Woman, you act as though we’re celebrities or something.” Yusuke said as he signed his name on the list. Kurama was right after him and but he didn’t say anything to Koto.

“If you guys would be so kind as to go to the crowd down below well be drawing lots to see which arena you’ll be in shortly.” Nodding Kurama and Yusuke turned from the table but didn’t go all the way down. They wanted to wait for the rest of their party.

Koto didn’t say much about Hiei when he signed up it was Sesshomaru that caused her jaw to drop. “Sir, I understand if you wish to sign up under a false name but do you think it’s wise to use ‘his’ name?” Koto asked Sesshomaru only for the lord to finish writing his name and walking off with his mate to catch up with Kurama and Yusuke. Yomi and Mukuro were the next to sign up and soon the whole group was walking down the stairs leaving behind the girls and Kuwabara up to watch and cheer them on.

Koto was left to keep signing up the other people so she couldn’t have asked any more questions about the group of the most know warriors in the Makai, the Five Lords and their heirs. Rin and Bufan were already down in the crowd waiting for them to get there. Rin was dressed in an outfit much like Sesshomaru’s but it clearly showed that she was female. Her long hair was pulled back into her youthful pony tail that set on her temple. Bufan wore something very close to what he wore five hundred years ago. His blue hair fell around his shoulders. His purple, the mixture of his two elements, stood out against his mate’s white.

“Sesshomaru-sama!” Rin yelled out over the loud crowd they were in. They made their way to the couple. Sesshomaru’s right eyebrow reached up into his bangs when he saw what they were wearing. “Lords and Ladies normally wear their family’s colors when they are out in public.”

Sesshomaru nodded his head lightly. ‘Hiei, how long did this tournament take last time?’

‘Over two weeks. But the Dark Tournament took over a month to complete.’ Hiei thought back too his mate as they watched the others talk about the lot pulling.

“Attention Ladies, Gentlemen and fighters. The drawing of the lots will take place soon. The rules are that everyone that has registered will be called up and they will draw their lot. The lot will have a number on it. That is the number of the arena you will be escorted to.” It was then that Koto started to call off the names of the different people that would go to each arena. Yusuke was finally called and he once again was sent to arena one. Kurama pulled 12 and Hiei pulled 78 and then it was Sesshomaru’s turn. Sesshomaru’s fingers went into the box and out he pulled a white index card that had the number twelve on it. He showed the judge like the others before him and soon it clicked to everyone that Sesshomaru was going to go against Kurama. (3)

End Chapter

1. Can you tell me what crazy teen soap couple’s lines were ‘Forever…and always?’ I’ll give you a hint, he was a Raven.

2. I’m going to use the make up Rain Gunji and I use in our other fics. There are going to be five not four lands. There will be the North, South, East, and West and then another land that is in the middle of it all. Seeing as Rain loves Kurama and Yomi is who Kurama stays with in the Makai in the Anime I choose to give Yomi the Midlands so to speak. Raizen will be the Northern Lord as Mukuro will be the South, leaving Rin/Sesshomaru to the West and Bufan to the East. For those who need a visual draw a square. Draw two lines connecting the two corners that are across from each other, next draw a smaller square using the lines you just drew. Erase the line with in the new square and you have a really basic map of the way I have this part of the Makai.

3. Thank about it. At one point in time Kurama held on to Hiei's heart, the most prized belonging of Sesshomaru at this point...it is almost if they will be fighting for it...or at least in Sesshomaru very male mind.

I was going to not end it there but I have to really work on fighting even if I don’t really show it. Well I hope you enjoy this chapter even if it is only just a mainly a filler.
