Disclaimer: I do not own InuYasha, Sesshoumaru, or Kouga. And, yes I know, they did not have Japanese or Portuguese settlers at the time of the Texas Revolution. And yes, I know that they speak Portuegese in Portugal, but I can only translate Spanish! The same goes for grandfather clocks. Bite me if you don’t like my story! '' A translation.
FULL SUMMARY:
Sarah, Evie and Rachel all have moved from Portugal, where they were in finishing school, to Mexico so as to complete thier training. Kouga, Sesshomaru, and InuYasha have immigrated over to Mexico. (A/N I don't know why!) When they find out that they have to live with three girls, erm, one doesn't care, one is ecstatic, and one is pissed. What will happen once Tejas declares its independance? When Sarah declares her loyalty to Santa Anna, until... what? WARNING: Death, doom, destruction, sadness, and some super corny fluffiness in later chapters...
Chp. 1: Do you speak English?
Sarah looked up at the grandfather clock. Senora Antonio gave her a look.
“Sarah, yo no pienso que el reloj le dará información en el Padre Guadalupe Hidalgo. ¡Así que sugiero que usted obtiene leyendo!” Mrs. Antonio snapped. 'Sarah, I don't think that the clock is going to give you information on Father Guadalupe Hidalgo (1). So I suggest you get reading!'
Sarah looked back at her book, pretending that she was ashamed of herself. A little later she looked back up at the clock, and Mrs. Antonio sighed.
“¿La Sra. Antonio es tiempo para mí ir recoge los colonizadores nuevos que Sr. Austin trae?” Sarah asked 'Mrs. Antonio is it time for me to go pick up the new settlers that Mr. Austin (2) is bringing?'
“Sí, supongo que soy. Usted es despedido, Sarah.” Senora Antonio sighed. 'Yes, I suppose that it is. You are dismissed, Sarah.'
“¡Gracias, Senora! ¡Véale el lunes!” Sarah shouted. 'Thank you, Senora! See you Monday!'
Sarah raced to the port. She couldn’t wait to meet these new people from North America. Herself, being from Portugal, had never met Americans before. She saw the three boys whom she was supposed to pick up standing off to one corner. The looked strange, not like Mr. Austin, or any of the other empresarios. (3)
Sarah approached them cautiously. “¿Cualquiera de usted habla español?” 'Do any of you speak Spanish?'
The two brothers looked at her with confusion but the third nodded.
“¿Usted es de la norteamérica?” Sarah asked. 'You are from North America?'
“No, somos de Japón. ¿Habla usted inglés? Eso es el único idioma, de otra manera que Japanese, que los dos saben.” the boy said. 'No, we are from Japan. Do you speak English? That is the only language, other than Japanese, that they both know.'
He gestured to the two boys.
“Yes, I do.” Sarah answered.
The two boys looked relieved.
“ Hello, I’m InuYasha.” the younger boy with silver hair and dog-ears greeted.
“I’m Kouga and that’s Sesshomaru.” the boy who had first spoken said, gesturing to the older youkai.
“I’m Sarah, and I suppose that you three are the ones that I’m supposed to accommodate into my new house?” Sarah asked.
“Sousa!” InuYasha said. Sesshomaru just mumbled.
Kouga saw the blank look on Sarah’s face at what InuYasha had said and anger at how rude Sesshomaru was being.
“InuYasha means yes, and Fluffy doesn’t talk to girls.” Kouga hurriedly told her, afraid that this strange Portuguese girl was about to hurt his friend’s older brother. Sarah raised an eyebrow.
“What, does he think he’ll get piojos?” Sarah asked, referring to the Spanish word for cooties.
“HEY!” Sesshomaru yelled after Kouga translated to him what piojos meant. “Cooties do not exist and I just don’t like stupid Portuguese girls assuming that I can’t take care of myself! And-” he was cut off at Sarah laughing. “What is so funny wench?”
At that Sarah stopped laughing and proceeded to walk over to him and punch him in the stomach. Fluffy doubled over, not expecting such strength from a girl and a hanyou at that.
“Come on,” Sarah said, coolly, ignoring the youkai gasping for air. “If we don’t get going soon it will be midnight before we get home.” And with that Sarah gestured the way and started off.
Sarah: Wow! I finally finished the chappy! Here’s some extra information: (1) Guadalupe Hidalgo helped free Mexico from the iron grip of Spain. Knowing about him was considered a great and wonderful knowledge and everyone was required to know it. (2) Anyone who lives in Texas and doesn’t know about Stephen F. Austin please move to the back of the classroom. For those of you who don’t know, Stephen F. Austin spurred the start of the Texas Revolution, but was first an empresario. (3) Empresarios were people, mostly men, who went and advertised for people to move to Tejas 'Texas'. They were paid big bucks and given land for their families and themselves to live on.
