The Experiment Call 'It' by SesshomaruXKagome

'It?'

Chapter 1: 'It?'

It was around even when his father was around. It had caused small wars to break out over who got It. It was something that almost no one ever got to see, not even Sesshomaru.

"I heard It was showing great signs of development lately." said one of the lords.

"But It hasn't been worked on in a while." said another lord.

"Ah, but It is different from the other ones. It even knows how to play an odd instrument and reads quite often, the others didn't even get past the first dose." said one of the ladies.

Even though It belonged to him, Sesshomaru never got to see it; he didn't even know what It was.

The four lords and many minor lords were gathered together at the Western castle for the celebration of the beginning of spring. As much as Sesshomar insisted on doing it in the East everyone, for their own odd reasons, wanted to do do it in the West. When the topic of It came about everyone joined into the conversation except for Sesshomaru.

He didn't really pay much attention or take part in most of the conversations to begin with but, it irritated him to know that everyone else knew about something that belonged to him that he had never seen.

So far the only thing he knew was that It was probably human, a hanyou, or even a demon seeing the fact that It played an instrument and read. It was apparently an experiment that his father started a bit before he mated with InuYasha's mother. Nobody really knew the reason behind why It was even made, except for the person his father had brought in to work on it with him.

Sesshomaru was taken out of his thoughts when someone said his name,"So what do you think with happen with It next Lord Sesshomaru."

"Yeah you own It now so you get to do whatever you want with It." said someone else.

Sesshomaru took a moment to think of a good answer,"It will continue with its current treatments." he said in his usual monotone voice.

"Well that's no fun! Why don't you take It out. From what I've heard your father used to take It out all the time for some fresh air." said the Lord of the North.

"Hn. I will consider it." said Sesshomaru.

'Why haven't I seen It anyway?' he asked himself as he slipped into his white sleeping yukata,'It belongs to me...'

He walked to his bed and arranged his mokomoko under his head and slid under his covers. 'Where was It? How is it that I know about every part of my castle yet I do not know were It is, what if It isn't even in the castle?'

Questions swirled in his head for the first time in a long time and found himself unable to sleep because of it. He growled and sat up; he had to find out who, what, and where It was.

He put on a long red silk robe and walked out of the room, determined to answer all his questions about It.

He walked to his office and sent a servant to summon the man his father hired to work on It. Now that he thought about it one of the reasons as to why he never really got the opportunity to see It was because he never spoke to the man who worked on It. The only things he really ever concentrated on were running his castle, his lands, and handling negotiations with other lords.

There was a knock at the door and he sat up straighter,"Enter."

A tall Inu with short navy colored hair stepped into the room and bowed,"Greetings Lord Sesshomaru. I was told you were in need of my assistance."

"Hn." he looked like a child but he knew he was just about as old as his father,"Name."

"Oh, my name is Muye. What do you need?" he said as he sat down in front of Sesshomaru's desk.

"It." Sesshomaru said plainly.

"Ah, I thought you would ask about It some time soon! So what do you want to know?" he said excitedly.

"Why?" he asked plainly.

"Because your father wanted to find a solution." he said smartly.

"For." said Sesshomaru.

"He wanted to find a solution for InuYasha's mother, she was only human after all she wouldn't live long so he wanted to find a way to prolong her life span." said Muye.

"What is It?" asked Sesshomaru.

"Well there really isn't a name for that yet seeing as It turned out to be the opposite of what we were trying to turn It into." he answered.

"Where?" he asked.

"Ah, you don't remember? I know you only saw It a few times, but I would have expected you to remember." Muye said playfully.

Sesshomaru looked down in consintration and tried to remember.

Flashback...

"Are you ready to see what your father has been working on?" said Muye to a certain little boy.

"Yes! Father said I could see 'It' if I learned to perfect my poison whip." said Sesshomaru proudly.

They walked down an unfamiliar hall and turned to a wall. "You know you, me, and your father the only people that know where 'It' is." Muye put his hand on the wall and his power spiked. The door began to glow and slowly began to open the huge wall.

Sesshomaru's big golden eyes widened in curiosity and excitement as they entered. He darted back and forth looking at all the things in the long hall as they neared 'It'. Muye laughed as they raced to 'It' and Lord Taishou.

"I win! I offf-" Sesshomaru crashed with something big and hard. He looked up to see his father looking down at him, then they both began to laugh.

"There you are son, I was beginning to think you were not capable of completing your task." said Lord Taishou as he picked up Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru held on to his fathers mokomoko tightly as they neared 'It'.

They entered a room that had a large pond with many bamboo sticks sticking out of it. Sesshomaru looked up at his father curiously as he set him down and pushed him to the pond.

"Look inside." said Muye. Lord Taishou walked away and rang a bell.

"Father what are y-" suddenly the calm pond began to glow and the water began to rock back and forth. Sesshomaru looked further inside and saw a small black dot approaching and turned to his father. He nodded his head towards the pond and Sesshomaru turned around to see two big blue eyes looking at him.

They stared at each other for a moment before the both of them screamed and backed away from each other, Sesshomaru into his fathers arms and 'It' ran behind Muye. The two adults laughed.

'It' didn't seem to look much older than Sesshomaru. 'It' had short black hair, big blue eyes, slightly tan skin, and odd white clothing. Sesshomaru didn't tear his eyes away from 'It' as he spoke to his father,"Father 'It' just looks like a human...a very wet one"

"That's because 'It' is, but not for long." said Lord Taishou.

"How?" asked Sesshomaru curiously.

"That's a secret." Lord Taishou held a clawed finger to his lips and winked.

"Hn." Sesshomaru slowly left his father and carefully walked to the little human girl slowly. Muye held her in front of him and pushed 'It' forward.

"H-Hello." she said quietly. Sesshomaru sniffed her then stood up tall,"I uh-"

"I am Sesshomaru, Lord Taishou's son. Who are you?" he asked.

"M-My name..." she turned to the two adults as if asking if she could.

"Sesshomaru her name is a secret too."said Muye.

"...Oh." Sesshomaru slumped his shoulders a bit.

"Would you l-like to play with us?" she asked sweetly.

"Us?" Sesshomaru looked around but saw no other children. Kagome smiled and skipped to the other side of the pond and that's when he spotted two pairs of brown eyes peering at him.

"Sesshomaru, this is my twin sister and my best friend, whom I consider a sister." She led the two other little girls out and Sesshomaru watched as they all bowed to him in unison.

After a few visits Sesshomaru found out that only the twins were being experimented on and the only reason they could stay in the water for so long was because Muye made them something that they put on their faces so they could breath; apparently it was infused with magic. After a while only they blue eyed twin was able to leave the pond and play with her friend/sister and him because the other twin wasn't feeling good.

On his last visit he finally convinced her to say her name...

Sesshomaru looked back at a smirking Muye and stood,"Hn."

A/N: I know I have other stories going and once again I had another story I had to write out and well here it is. One of the reasons I haven't been able to do any of my stories is because I'm in the middle of moving to California! Sadly I have been in a car for the past 9 hours and stopped at a small restaurant that was generous enough to let me use their internet while I'm here!

I know some of you are like 'Well why doesn't she just write from the spot she left off at?" Well that's because I forgot were I left off, seeing as I make some parts of my stories as I go. Well I hope you guys enjoy! R&R!
