My Little Lord Sesshomaru: Chapter 1 Aquamarine
Kama was looking outside at the rain. Waiting for her beloved husband, Inutaishou, to return to her from his long trip around the border of the western lands. She moved to her side and gasped as her unborn son kicked. She smiled and placed a gentle hand to her stomach.
You are going to be a handful my son. She said while patting her large but firm belly.
She and looked out at the rain again. It was boring to lie here in bed while the rain poured down outside like little playful children calling out to her to come and play. She sighed and blinked; but when she opened her eyes in that exact moment what she saw made her gasp.
There in the cold stood a little girl no more than 14, dirty, exhausted, frightened, wet, and cold. Kamas eyes widened as she saw the girl fall to one knee and clutch her bare arms for warmth. She stood and called a servant to her. The servant girl dressed her up and then Kama walked outside towards the girl.
The girl heard sounds coming from inside the large palace. She knew that she should run, but where too??? Suddenly she felt a hand on her shoulder and squeaked in fear. She was about to run off when the hand grabbed her and turned her about.
The girl wouldnt look up. Kama was puzzled and hooked a claw under her chin forcing it up.
Girl, do not be afraid. I will not hurt you. She said softly feeling the small girl tremble.
Then ever so reluctantly- the girls opened her eyes to reveal beautiful deep pools of star blue. Kama gasped and then smiled. A perfect girl alone with nowhere to go.
My dear girl. What is your name? she asked with an elegant smile.
The girl decided she could trust the woman with that much. Aquamarine. My name is Aquamarine. She stated. Then she knew everything she had needed. You are Lady Kama, Lord Inutaishous mate; you are kind.
Kama was taken aback. This little girl who looked no more than 14 was wise beyond her years and most likely not from around here.
Come with me Aquamarine Please? she added while holding her hand out.
Aquamarine obliged and grabbed her outstretched hand and followed Kama in. There she was taken to a room, given some new clothes to wear and served a hot dinner in a fluffy bed. She was told she would be escorted to breakfast the next morning. And so with a silent prayed of thanks to her Lord, she fell into a deep slumber.
The next morning she awoke to a toad demon standing over her head and glaring at her. She screamed and hit the toad in the head with her fist. She jumped up and ran out of the room. But she stopped dead when she collided with something hard but warm. She gulped and looked up into two very bewildered yet irritated eyes. Lord Inutaishou! She had run into Lord Inutaishou! She gulped and bowed.
Girl who are you? he demanded.
Aquamarine shivered and replied, I am Aquamarine my Lord. Lady Kama brought me in from the storm last night.
Then why did you scream and run out here? he retorted with a snap.
She flinched and looked up with sad eyes. Because the toad scared me my Lord! I didnt expect to see it this early in the morning. She said still a little ruffled. The toad was creepy and ugly.
Suddenly, the mighty dog lord chuckled causing the girl to jump. I see. I dont think Id want to be wakened by Jaken this early in the morning either. He said while patting the girls head.
Aquamarine smiled at him innocently. Aye my Lord! she piped.
Then she bowed once again and then skipped into the room. A second later Jaken came flying out and hit the wall. The door closed and the sounds of her undressing and redressing filled the air.
Inutaishou shook his head and then continued on. There at the breakfast table he met his wife and his unborn son.
Kama. He purred.
She bowed to him and then sat down in the chair he had opened for her. She smiled appreciatively at him and then opened her mouth to tell him of the girl but he stopped her.
I already know love, Aquamarine is a sweet girl. Shes very respectful He said. Then he added, and she agreed with me about Jaken.
Kama shook her head and smiled as Aquamarine entered looking brilliant.
Ah! Here you are. I see youve already met my mate Inutaishou! Excellent! I bet youre starving dear. The food is prepared! she smiled.
But they had to wait for Inutaishou to start eating for he was the Lord of the palace.
He took a bite and then the rest followed in suit. The food was delicious in everyway with fresh meat from a deer and wonderful fruits for enjoyment. This was going to be a good dinner.
Over the next half hour they sat, ate, and talked about things. Kama and Inutaishou learned that Aquamarine wasnt one to talk a lot.
Aquamarine, where are you from? Kama asked. Surely the girl would give an answer?
I am not from this planet. She replied. It was a strange answer.
You mean you live upon another planet in this system? Inutaishou suddenly asked. He had learned a lot about space dwellers as they were called. He had even met one. In face his mother was supposedly a space dweller that fell in love with his father.
No. Not from this galaxy. Nor from this time or warp. She replied quietly. I am from the Ziphron galaxy in the 44th quadrant of the Zekro era ruled under King Zion and his son, Prince Orion. She added thoughtfully. Then she silenced herself with another bite of kiwi.
Inutaishou raised an eyebrow and almost laughed at poor Kama who was confused. She looked like someone had just asked her something in another language. He chuckled. Kama do not try to understand. It is difficult. He told her.
You know of Ziphron? Aquamarine asked. Now her curiosity was sparked. How could an Earth dwelling demon know of the 44th quadrant of Nebula or any of the miniscule planets that are basically the size of 2 Jupiters?
My mother, she came from the 10th quadrant of Zerionon. She told me of a few Nebula and Nebulan eras. He told the small girl. And Im guessing that from your appearance your planet is submerged in water or at least has very little landforms?
She smiled brightly. Yes. My planet, Nekton, is submerged in water and only the skilled warriors live there with there immediate families. We are the fighters. Her smile faded. And my mother was killed in an attack about 4 nebulas ago. She added in a whisper. A few tears stung her eyes.
Inutaishou could smell the salt from her eyes as well could Kama. Well, at least you are still alive. Inutaishou replied trying to cheer her up. It didnt work; in fact it seemed to worsen the situation.
What was your mothers name? Aquamarine suddenly asked after the silence.
Inutaishou smiled at her. Her name was, Isabolunaria. Isa for short.
She looked up at him, he was the sun of the mighty queen Isa? Your mother is Isabolunaria? Queen of the Andromeda Alliances? she asked in awe.
Now it was Inutaishous turn to look confused. What do you mean? he asked bewildered.
You mean you dont know?! she screeched suddenly.
Know what? Kama and Inutaishou asked at the same time.
I see. Isabolunaria is was Queen of the Andromeda Alliances until 2 nebulas ago. The rebel forces maintained a higher status quo in wormhole transfers. Queen Isabolunaria wasnt correct in the time theyd figure out how to create and end them so quickly. She thought shed have time to correct the errors shed made. But before the rebel forces could be contacted by her they had sent 4 zepher armed missiles at the home base planet she wasnt currently residing at and well it was destroyed as well as 1200 other planets that housed the Alliance warriors. Finally the rebel forces learned of their mistake. But too many of them had died in the war of Nebulan XXDCII so they couldnt rejoin together. Thus King Sutarna gained all the power. And lets just say it isnt too happy a place in the Nebulan Andromeda dimension. She let out her breath and took another bite never looking up to them.
Inutaishou sat in silence with his mouth hanging open. Kama was so bewildered she decided to just pretend she knew what Aquamarine had been talking about. So whats wrong with King Sutarna ruling? Do people not like him or something? It was an innocent question she hoped.
King Sutarna is the reason Im here. Anyone who does not believe he is the supreme ruler is either killed or tortured until death. I only escaped because he made me his sons play toy. I escaped through the air ducts on the ship and stole one of the Zarc military pod ships. And I landed here on Earth about 4 Earth days ago. It took I think 200 Earth years to reach this time and another 100 Earth years to reach the destination I crashed on. It has only been a few nebulas there though. She replied.
Kama looked like she had been either insulted or smacked or both. Thats awful! Aquamarine you will never return there! You are under my care and will not leave to become a play thing for some stupid boy! she yelled.
Inutaishou snapped out of it after hearing his mates demand. Kama we cannot force her to do anything. But I will ask you to stay here with us Aquamarine. Not as a servant nor as a slave but as a companion. And you will have someone your own age in a few more years. You cant be more than what? 12? 14 tops? he asked.
I am 1,400 years old in Earth years. In Nebulan years I am only 14. She replied.
Inutaishous mouth dropped. And if possible Kamas dropped even farther. Youd be older than I then!! Kama exclaimed.
Aquamarine nodded and smiled. Yes I am. But Im tired and I will ask only one thing. May I sleep?
One more question. Kama asked.
Yes my Lady.
Will you stay here as long as possible?
She nodded. As long as I am allowed.
Good.
Aquamarine bowed and then walked off to her room. All the time she had wondered when Kama was due with her baby. She would ask her later; but for now she was tired and needed sleep. And she wouldnt be hungry for a while. She was becoming homesick for her father. But he was more than likely not even aware of her escape. But Orion probably was throwing a fit now that his little plaything had disappeared from him. Orion was a bastard, an ass, a control freak and any other names there were for a creep who liked to control everything you did. She could only hope he would not find her for a while.
If only she knew what would be coming towards her in the future. Only one person will be able to save her. But will he save her?
