New story people. I know I haven't finished any of my last InuYasha stories but those are being worked on and in progress. I will be completing all stories in the upcoming weeks. However here's a new adventure filled story of InuYasha and his family in Modern Times. New story is more family based and based on much of what the amazing artist Lenbaboza has drawn and written herself. I'll be linking her handles throughout this story. Enjoy!
InuYasha: The Demon Heroyakmaru
Chapter 1
Eighteen years, I can't believe it's been eighteen years. Seems like yesterday Kagome, Sango, Miroku and myself were fighting demons, and Naraku all to destroy the evil in our world and the Shikon no Tama. I couldn't imagine my life as it is today, married, with two grown teenage children, a ten-year-old boy, and a new baby on the way. The love of my life Kagome, changed me in so many ways… I waited three years for her, well worth it, to have her in my life again.
Today, sunny warm day, we now live in Kagome's time, we've been here for ten years. We've grown accustomed to this worlds culture and traditions. I provided a home for my family, a large home, and now work with Miroku, and my brother Sesshomaru. Yes our whole family is here… we don't remember much on how or why we ended up in Kagome's time, but we were happy, and my family is together. That's all that matters.
My eighteen year old son Inuko, strong, independent, wise, caring… when he was first born man was I a wreck, I had no idea how to raise a child or even a boy. I'm glad Miroku and my family, my Kagome… were with me, he turned out just as I wanted him to be. A great man.
Kikyko … well let's just say she's a big daddy's girl. Her name means bell flower, she's my bell flower, she's so spoiled-yes I admit to it so sue me, she wasn't born a half demon like her brothers, Kikyko… I say she was lucky; she doesn't have to live with the stigma of being a half demon. She's so beautiful, looks so much like her mother every day, she's short for her age even at fourteen, she's smart, talented, loud, kind… caring, gentle, her smile lights up any room…. Hahaha, and she gets away with almost anything. Well sort of!
Then there's Hoshiki, boy is he a troublemaker, he's a smaller version of myself, he's sneaky, mischievous, clever, and is always getting into trouble. But he's got a good heart and he's a great kid. Then there's my lovely wife Kagome… who's now pregnant with our fourth child.
She's been very sick lately; I feel helpless I can't do anything to help her. She's eight months into her pregnancy and she's beginning to feel it. This time, I'm worried… unlike our last three children, Kagome has been struggling a lot, always tired, sleeping a lot, always having back pains, and mostly morning sickness. This child will be our last, I can't allow my wife to go through this anymore. So, today I woke up early with Kikyko and Inuko, we cleaned the house, got Hoshiki ready for school and made breakfast.
My entire house fell quiet today, Kikyko and Inuko left early this morning to school… they took Hoshiki with them and dropped him off at his school as well. Kagome's been asleep all morning, and here I sit at my kitchen table reading todays paper, the birds chirped outside, the sun shone through every window in our large living room. I sighed happily and hummed to myself at the table, I turned my gaze to the hallway.
"Huh!"
And there she is, my beautiful wife, vibrant, glowing, gorgeous in her robe. Hmmm, I wonder if she's still naked under there! I slide out the chair.
"Good morning,"
"InuYasha, oh good morning, I thought you may have left to work with Miroku…" she said to me as she rubbed her belly, she came over to the refrigerator and opened it.
"Sit, I made breakfast I'll heat it up for you," I said and pulled her to me. I pulled my hands through her robe.
"Ohh, cut that out…" her face blushed.
"Hahaha, why are you blushing?"
"Dumb dog," she said and pushed me away. She came around me and to the kitchen table.
"So…. What's on the agenda today?" I heard her say from the table. I twirled the spatula in my hand then poked at the eggs in the pan.
"Well day off today, Miroku and Sesshomaru are at the office…" I said to her, I quickly turned to the sink and opened the cupboard for a plate. Miroku, Sesshomaru and I have set up our own business working together in a huge firm. No not a law firm, but more of an online 'men's business, we sell suits, clothes, accessories, we have designers that specialize in everything we require…. And, since this world is mixed with all creatures from our land, we tailor to everyone.
"Eeeh," I heard her voice. I leaned over and looked at her.
"Hey are you okay?" I said as she ran to the hallway bathroom.
"Great…"
I followed her to the bathroom and bent down to her as she threw up over the toilet.
"This is getting to much Kagome…" I said rubbing her back.
"I'm okay," she said taking in a deep breath.
"The meat you where cooking bothered me," she said and touched her forehead.
"Come here," I picked her up.
"This is our last one… no more okay," I said to her and took her back to the kitchen. Kagome wanted two more children, after this one. This really bothered me, as much as I love children, especially mine. I wasn't going to add another two more to our litter. It's too much for Kagome to handle.
She sighed deeply and rubbed her belly as I sat her down on the chair.
"InuYasha, where are the children?" she asked looking around the house.
"School," I said returning to the kitchen. I pushed the eggs and bacon to the plate.
"Wow, they cleaned the house," she said surprised. I saw her eyes scrutinize every part of the house.
"You seem surprised…" I said coming to her. I put the plate down in front of her and pulled out a chair.
"Well yeah, they barely clean… unless I shout at them to do so," she said and picked up a piece of bacon.
"Haha, well they wanted to do something for you today, so they cleaned the house and went to school…" I said watching her as she ate. Wow, she's so beautiful, and being pregnant makes her even more beautiful.
"What… why are you looking at me like that, your cheeks are rosy. Oh god you're in heat again," she said and sighed deeply.
"I'm not in heat crazy women, I just think your beautiful that's all,"
"Take a cold shower InuYasha, COLD! And from now on CONDOMS…. You got that," she said to me and poked at the eggs.
"Cold shower won't help babe, and you know I hate those things," I chuckled and teased her.
She rolled her eyes and picked up our cell phone off the table ignoring me. I smiled and watched her as she scrolled through her Instagram. Miroku and Sango have one, and Rin and Sesshomaru too. She set up a family Instagram for our friends and family in this world. It has become so popular that we've even had to put up security cameras on our properties, yes it has gotten that bad. We've had stalkers and people try to jump our brick walls.
"Did you see what your daughter posted on Instagram today?" she said and held her hand to her mouth and laughed. She turned the phone to me.
Instagram Post
"When your stupid half demon brother orders 4 burgers from Burger King all to realize he forgot he's allergic to ketchup, what a moron." With a picture of him taking a bit of a burger then his face turns bright red. She's laughing hysterically in the picture. Hakura, Inuko's girlfriend sitting next to him laughing, Kira next to Kikyko snickering and holding her straw filled with some sort of a drink over Inuko's hamburger. Hakura and Kira, they were Sango and Miroku's oldest twins, and Inuko was dating one of them. I sighed and rolled my eyes.
"Seriously how does he not learn?" I said and scrolled down reading the comments.
Miroku: seriously how does he not learn?
(exactly what I said) I replied to him.
Sango: Oh my god Inuko again!
Hakura: Hahahaha, and I told him not too. He never listens to me.
Sango: Honey men usually never listen.
Miroku: Hey I resent that!
Koga: Hahahhaha, his face though priceless.
Ayame: Hahhaha and Kikyko she's probably dying from laughter…. I'm sorry your brother's stupid girl.
(Hey what is your daughter doing with that straw?) I said analyzing the image. I shook my head again and sighed.
Sota: HAHAHAHA, INUKO HIS FACE! Mom call me…. Hahahah, wow!
Kira: He deserves it, it's just pop over his hamburger. Dumb idiot didn't listen even after we told him not too.
Kikyko: *sigh* yeah well, I have to live with this everyday….
Mama Higurashi: Sota's on the phone dying from laughter, should I be concerned?
(Speaking of which why aren't you and your brother in school?) I replied to their messages.
Miroku: HAHAHAH, BUSTED!
Rin: HAHAHAHAHAHA, SO BUSTED! Kikyko kick your brother under the table. HAHAHAHA….
I shook my head watching as our family's messages came through their post.
"Why aren't they in school?" Kagome said looking over to the phone. I passed it to her.
"They're on lunch break apparently," I said and stood up taking the plate back to the kitchen.
(Hey both of you get back to school right now, don't make me call either one of you.) she replied to their instagram post.
Sango: OOOOO, mom is mad, don't piss off a pregnant woman.
-END POST-
"Wow," she said from the table and chuckled. Kagome put the phone down and slide the chair out and shifted to her feet.
"Ooo, there we go," she said pushing the chair to the table.
"Babe, are you okay?" I said concerned. She seemed to waver on her feet and her balance was off. She took in a deep breath and leaned against the chair.
"Still hungry little one? Your making momma uncomfortable," she said and rubbed her stomach. Then I saw her cringe.
"Kago?" I said again to her.
"InuYasha…" she said rubbing her belly.
"Call the ambulance…." She stuttered out her words.
"Now, what?"
"Breathe Kagome," I said to her as she slowly shifted her way through the living room. She sat down on the couch and rubbed her stomach.
"I think… my water broke," she said and cringed again.
"Great the ambulance is 20 minutes away," I panicked looking at the phone.
The ambulance drove down the long stretch of highway leading away from our home to the city so fast. I became nervous this was our fourth child and this time Kagome's early, real early, she usually delivers right on time.
"Inu-Yasha," Kagome's voice became labored, I held her hand and leaned over her.
"Stay calm," I said to her.
As the ambulance approached the hospital, I could hear one of the EMT call ahead to the hospital. Kagome's father was going to meet us, as we pulled into the hospital, he was there waiting for us. He was a doctor at the hospital and well known, he delivered Hoshiki and now… he'll be by our side again.
"Kagome?" her father said as the EMT pulled her out of the ambulance.
"She's early," I said worried.
"Wheel her into the ER, this baby is coming now…" he said to the EMT as his hands probed her body. We ran through the hospital doors and down a hallway to a large ER room.
"Dad, I want InuYasha with me…" she said her voice trembled as they pulled her gurney through the doors.
"Kagome, honey we need to get the baby out, your breech it won't be a normal labor. We may have to c-section," Her father leaned over her and said this.
"I'll be right here Kagome okay," I leaned over her as her father turned to the nurses with him. They started helping him prep for surgery.
"Kagome, honey I'm sorry InuYasha has to wait outside," he said to her pulling his mask over his face. I saw her eyes fill with tears.
"Can we have a minute?" I said to him. He nodded and came over to where the nurses were setting up.
"Kagome, you can do this. I'll be outside," I said touching her hand.
"InuYasha, you've been with me each time…" she said through tears. I touched her face and kissed her.
"You're the strongest women I've ever known Kagome, your bringing life into this world," I said to her again.
"Our life, our child… please don't leave," she said to me. I sighed and kissed her again.
"I'll wait outside, you can do this Kagome…" I said to her. She took in a deep breath.
"I love you," I said to her again and rested my forehead against hers.
"Sir," one of the nurses said to her father. My ears twitched hearing her talk.
"Her husband is a dog demon?" she said curious looking over to us.
"Yes, she's been married to him for almost 19 years now," he said, I heard clanking metal on a tray.
"… and the child sir, is a dog demon as well?" she said looking to us. I was agitated by her remark.
"Nurse Mika, if you have a problem with my daughter and her husband then please… leave the room. I'm proud my daughter found a man who loves her, and takes care of her, and who gave us three grandchildren," Kagome's father said to her. She looked at him then to the tray.
"No sir, I don't have a problem." she said again.
"Good… now I'm about to deliver my fourth grandchild, if you want to assist me then so be it do so without question nurse Mika." Her father said again. I shook my head and touched my hand to Kagome's forehead.
"InuYasha, please this way…" a nurse said to me. I turned and looked at her, it was that wench the nurse who didn't seem to like me.
"You can do this Kagome," I said to her and kissed her again.
"Don't worry InuYasha, everything is going to be just fine…" her father said to me. I looked at him and nodded and followed the nurse out of the moving doors.
I turned to the doors and watched as they closed behind me. I sighed deeply and looked to the waiting room.
Instagram Post
I posted a picture of myself near the doors the small round windows showed nothing but Kagome's father and the nurses hovering around her.
"When your wife is in the delivery room, and all you can do is worry and wait…." I sighed deeply and posted the image.
Miroku: WHAT THE HELL KAGOME'S IN LABOUR SHE'S ONLY 8 MONTHS PREGNANT. I'M ON MY WAY.
Sango: InuYasha call me right now. MIROKU COME GET ME!
Koga & Ayame: OH MY GOD! InuYasha keep us updated.
Kikyko: WHAT…. MOMMY'S HAVING THE BABY NOW?
Shippou: I'm on my way as well. I'll be there with Miroku.
Rin: Sesshomaru we have to go now… come get me hurry!
-END POST—
I sighed watching the messages go through. I dialed Sango's number.
"InuYasha?" Sango's voice echoed through the speaker phone. I turned the volume down and moved away from the doors. I paced near the ER room.
"Yeah, she hadn't been feeling well all morning… and then it just, happened. Her water broke," I said nervous.
"We're on our way, Miroku just got home with Shippou, do you need anything?" she asked me. I sighed deeply and looked through the large ER window.
"Sango…. I'm worried," I said to her.
"InuYasha calm down, don't worry, I'm sure everything is just fine… we'll be there in twenty minutes," she said to me and then the phone clicked. I sighed and looked to the window again. I couldn't see anything; they had a blue curtain surrounding them.
"Huh!"
I looked at the phone vibrating in my hand.
"Dad, is everything okay? Kikyko told me mom's in the hospital?" Inuko's voice echoed through the speaker.
"Pick up your sister and brother, get here quick…." I said to him.
"Dad is mom okay?" his voice was worried. Inuko was very protective of his mother and sister. He's a big momma's boy, and cares very much about his mother.
"Inuko, let's go…" Hakura's voice echoed as well.
"We're on our way!" he said to me then the phone clicked.
I sighed again and watched the movement in the ER room. I saw Kagome's father pull the curtains back. I quickly came to the moving doors.
"InuYasha?" his voice said as he came through the doors.
"W-wwhat?"
He held a small baby in his arms wrapped in a white hospital blanket.
"A girl," her father said. I came towards him and carefully took her from his arms. She was crying.
"A girl…" I said and pulled her to my face and kissed her.
"Kagome's doing well, she's going to be wheeled into a private room, you may see her in an hour…" her father said again. He smiled at me as I held her in my arms.
"I called Kagome's mother, she'll be here soon as well…" her father said to me and smiled as I nuzzled our new baby and touched her little hands.
"Thank you!" I said to him.
"No, thank you… for giving me another granddaughter, if she's anything like her sister Kikyko… she'll be such a wonderful young lady," he said to me and touched her head.
"Have you decided on a name?" he said again.
"Makoto," I said to him. He smiled and touched my shoulder.
"A great name that will suit her well," he said and then turned to the doors.
"She's like her brothers, she's so… adorable," I said touching her hands and her little ears. I brought her over to the waiting area. She stopped crying and fell asleep, she made noises through her tiny lips. I smiled and admired her.
"Kikyko's going to love you, she's always wanted a sister…. And you have two brothers as well, Inuko and Hoshiki. Inuko he's a great man and a wonderful brother, very protective of Kikyko, I'm sure he'll be the same with you… don't be surprised if we all are. Hoshiki he's your ten year older brother, he's still becoming a young man himself, but boy is he crazy, I'm sure you'll like him…" I said to her. That's when I heard Miroku and Sango's voice, their two boys were with them as well.
"Woooww," I heard Shippou's voice near me.
"Shippou, hey!" I said to him.
"InuYasha, congratulations," Miroku said sitting next to me. Sango smiled and kneeled to the floor in front of me.
"She's so beautiful InuYasha, another little pup," she teased and touched her head.
"Hey…" I said and chuckled.
"Excuse me?" a nurse said to us as our whole family filled the waiting area. Sesshomaru and Rin were hovered near me admiring her. Inuko, Kikyko and Hoshiki hadn't arrived yet, which worried me. Knowing them they stopped for something along the way.
"Excuse me," the nurse said again making her way through Miroku and Sango.
"Oh sorry, excuse me…." Sango said stepping aside.
"We must take her sir, she needs to return to her mother…. your wife's mother is in her room as well, you may all see her in twenty minutes." The nurse said looking at Makoto as she slept in my arms.
I stood up from the chair and came towards the nurse.
"This little one needs a check up and to eat, I'm sure she's very hungry," the nurse said taking her from my arms. I smiled and touched her head again as the nurse cradled her.
That's when Mokato woke up and started crying.
"Awe," I heard Rin's voice near me.
"There there little one, come on let's go see your momma," the nurse said to her and took her down the hallway.
"Wow, she's wonderful InuYasha congratulations brother," Miroku said to me and touched my shoulder.
"Thanks, everyone…" I said to everyone.
As we waited for our chance to see Kagome and Makoto again we all gathered in the hospital store buying gifts for Mako.
"Heheheheh, ahhhhh I'm so excited," I heard Kikyko's voice outside the store. I titled my head to the door and sighed deeply.
"Stop jumping around Kikyko," Inuko said to her as their voice got louder.
"AAAAH, I CAN'T BELIVE I HAVE A SISTER," she shouted in glee. Her voice was chipper, loud and excited. I shook my head as the three of them came in to the hospital store.
"There you three are, where's Hakura and Kira?" Sango asked coming towards them.
"Right here mother, Kikyko's excitement was getting on my nerves…" Kira said following in behind them. They had balloons and gifts with them. Kikyko held a pink teddy bear in her arms and was hyper as ever. I really hope they didn't feed her any chocolate or candy. I sighed and shook my head at the thought.
Hakura laughed watching Kikyko's excitement she couldn't contain herself and kept jumping in one spot.
"Great," I said to myself.
"Seriously sis, stop…" Hoshiki said to Kikyko.
"Hossshiiiii we have a baby sister," she said touching his shoulders. He narrowed his eyes at her and turned around.
"Your dumb sometimes," he said teasing her. She looked at him and smiled. She then bent down and grabbed him smothering him and was giving him a bunch of kisses.
"AAAAAH, DAD MAKE HER TO STOP!" he shouted.
"Great, this is my life…" I sighed deeply and came towards them.
"WWWWOOOOWWWWWW," Kikyko's voice chimed in her mother's hospital room.
"Wow mom she's so cute, she looks like me," Hoshiki said pointing to himself. Kagome held Makoto to her chest and feed her. I smiled watching the kids admire their sister. Hakura and Kira sat on the bed next to Kagome also admiring her.
"You guys bought her so many gifts," Kagome said looking around the room. Surprisingly we filled a corner of the room with gifts, I hadn't even noticed how much there was until Kagome mentioned it.
"Oh Kagome I'm so happy another grandchild," Kagome's mother smiled and slide in next to Kikyko on the bed.
"Grandma look she's so cute, look at her ears," Kikyko's voice giggled and chimed as she touched her sisters' ears.
"Thank you everyone for being here," Kagome said to everyone.
"I got worried, you delivered early," Sango said sitting down in a chair near the bed. I took in a deep breath and left the room. Miroku and Sesshomaru followed me. Sango's boys, Koji and Yuki leaned in next to Sango, I could hear them talking.
"Can we have another sister?" Koji said. Sango scowled at him.
"Hell no, and if your father even thinks it…" she said agitated, and loudly so Miroku could hear her. Miroku chuckled then laughed.
"Everything okay?" Miroku said to me as he closed the door behind us.
"Yeah, everything's great Miroku," I said to him and sighed deeply again.
"Congratulations InuYasha and I mean that," Sesshomaru said to me. I smiled and looked at him. He tapped my shoulder and nodded.
"So Sesshomaru, I hear Rin wants a pup of her own as well…" I teased him and added. He narrowed his eyes to me and shook his head. He was always cautious with Rin because she was human, he never wanted her to go through any pain or suffering or even labor, this is why they haven't conceived yet.
Well before Rin, before she was even born, Sesshomaru married a dog demon woman from our clan, she was betrothed to him before our father died and he did marry her. They ended up having a son together named Yamatoo, she however left Sesshomaru when Yamatoo was five years old. She never returned, I think this is why Sesshomaru became so resentful towards humans and even hated me, his wife…. Found a human man whom she wanted to marry. But he ended up betraying her and killed her. This broke Sesshomaru, it destroyed him. I do feel bad for him, he raised his son on his own, but I am also happy he met Rin. Even though she was a child when he met her, she has now changed him completely. He became a real man, a kind caring man, even someone who I look up too.
"Oh come on you two have been married for a few years now, seriously Sesshomaru haven't you even thought about it? She's 29, don't make her wait too long…" Miroku said to him, and nudged his arm. Sesshomaru ran a hand through his hair and walked around us, to a small waiting area near Kagome's room. I tapped Miroku's shoulder and followed Sesshomaru.
"I wouldn't make a good father second time around; I couldn't even raise Yamatoo…" he said to us. I looked at him smug and crossed my arms.
"We're all here to help with that, I didn't even think I'd make a good father either. Heck when my son was born, I freaked out, I panicked… I had no idea how to raise a boy, let alone a daughter either…. It's not easy Sesshomaru that's for sure, but kids do bring happiness to your life. I'll admit that much," I said and sat down next to him.
Yamatoo, well let's just say he's a rebel, he never really respected his father or even cared for him. In our world, before here—before being in Kagome's time, Yamatoo would always run away. He hated his father, he blamed him for the death of his mother. Just like Sesshomaru did over our father. I guess Yamatoo is a younger version of his own father. Yamatoo now is a 23-year-old man, well behaved, caring, kind…. And in college, he barely comes to visit us unless we have family gatherings, and he's not to fond of Rin either.
"We'll see I guess," he said after a few moments.
The day had passed by quickly, Kagome's father wanted to keep her and the baby in the hospital for a few more days to ensure Kagome healed properly from her surgery and that both would be fit to finally come home. I decided to head home with our family and organize the house for Makoto and Kagome. We hadn't set up the baby room completely yet, Kagome wanted her to sleep in our room in a bassinet but…. I decided to give Mako her own room, so Miroku, Sesshomaru, Shippou and their boys gathered in Mako's new room fixing it up. It would take us a couple of hours to organize the room and fix it up. Besides all the gifts she had would probably fill her entire room.
Hakura, Kira and Sango where in the kitchen downstairs cooking something, I wasn't sure what. I could smell the ingredients all the way upstairs. Maybe they were baking something?
Inuko, Kikyko and Hoshi stayed at the hospital with Kagome and their sister. Hope they don't get in to to much trouble. I smiled and chuckled at the thought.
That's when I heard Kagome's phone ping.
"What the?" Miroku said as he turned to the small bedside table. He picked up Kagome's phone and unlocked it. Then I heard him laugh.
"Hahahah poor Kagome," I heard Miroku say. I put down the hammer and turned to him, he held the phone up to me and I shook my head then laughed.
"Wow," I said and took the phone from him. Kagome made an Instagram post with Kikyko's phone. Three pictures.
Instagram Post
"When your room is filled with so much love but you have to pee so badly and can't move," the kids where asleep on the bed, Kikyko next to her mother, Inuko on her stomach and Hoshiki wedge between his sister and mother. I sighed deeply. She held Makoto to her breast feeding her. I shook my head and chuckled.
"Well I hope she doesn't have an accident that would really suck," I said and watched as the post got likes and comments. I scrolled down.
Mama Higurashi: Good thing I went home and baked cookies. I'll be there quick.
Kagome: No mom, do not bring the cookies here, you know what happened last time you made cookies. It was chaos, and with Kikyko they'll be gone in two seconds.
Sango: Hahahahha, well Kagome I can relate to this x4.
Kagome: How did you do this everyday? I have four now, you have four… your children are all older than mine for sure, but this is crazy. I have a baby and a 10-year-old, what was I thinking?
Sango: Yeah what were you thinking you have pups they are a huge handful.
(Hey stop telling her these things Sango, and stop calling my babies pups.) I posted and shook my head.
Sota: WOAH WOAH WOAH WAIT, I'M IN COLLEGE IN OSAKA AND MY SISTER JUST HAD A BABY… WHY DIDN'T ANYONE CALL ME? MOM CALL ME…
-End Post-
"Keep your women in line Miroku," I turned to him and put the phone down on the table.
"Oh?" Miroku said and laughed.
"Calling my babies pups, where does she get off saying that, that crazy women…" I said and lifted the rod to the window. Shippou laughed as he and Sesshomaru fixed the sliding doors to the closet.
"Hahhahaha, pups ahahha, I love that…" Miroku teased and laughed. I shook my head and narrowed my eyes at him.
The day had turned to night and the entire house was loud and booming. Sesshomaru had left with Rin a little early, Rin works at our office as a magazine designer and she wanted to rest early. I'm assuming she wants to convince Sesshomaru to have their own pup. Hahaaha yeah right!
Somehow the kids made it home unscathed, I'm sure Kikyko wasn't allowed anywhere near the cookies, that could explain her grumpy mood and the fact that no one died on the car ride home. Inuko crossed his arms and looked at his sister as she huffed and leaned against the kitchen counter.
"What?" he said to her. Hoshiki laughed near the fridge and said nothing.
"You stupid moron dog boy," she said to her brother. He eyed her down and snickered.
"You and that pup over there ate all of grandma's cookies while I went to pee…." She said loudly. We all tried our best not to laugh at their squabble. Hakura, Kira and their brothers were setting the large dining room table with plates and utensils, while we watched the show unfold in the kitchen.
"Ten bucks Inuko gets his ass kicked by Kikyko," Miroku said to us. I looked at him and snickered.
"Inuko can take her, he's stronger than she is," I said nodding.
"So?" Inuko said to his sister. He didn't flinch from his spot. He stood eyeing her down with his arms crossed.
"So? So… you know how much I love chocolate chip cookies especially the way grandma makes them. Besides chocolate isn't good for pups," She said, I could tell she was agitated she kept tapping her fingers on the counter.
"You're on Miroku, ten bucks Inuko gets what he deserves," I said tapping my fist to Miroku's. We both chuckled and watched them two carefully.
"Well not my fault your bladder can't control itself, so Kikyko how's it feel to be cookieless," he teased her hard.
"Oooo, I don't know if I should bet on this," I heard Sango say next to us.
I heard Kikyko mumble and grunt under her breath. Hoshiki quickly grabbed the orange juice, and drinks from the fridge and slide away from his siblings to the dining room. I watched him then turned my eyes to Kikyko.
"Wanna know what I think Inuko?" Kikyko said her voice was angry. I watched them carefully, the last time they squabbled it got a little out of hand and Kikyko got hurt from it.
"Ooooooo, miss cookieless is threatening me," he said shaking his head.
"Grrrrr, that's it….." she said and jumped at her brother. We laughed as she pinned him to the ground.
"STUPID IDIOT!" he shouted at her as she held him down.
"Hahhha, told you," Miroku said to us. He held his arm to his stomach laughing.
"Hey if you two are done fighting we made dinner," I said loudly to them. Inuko had his sister in a head lock.
"OW, HEY STUPID THAT HURTS," she shouted at him pulling at his arm.
"Yeah Kikyko stop fighting you won't win," Inuko teased her again and released his grasp from around her neck. She rubbed her neck as he came around her.
"MORON," she shouted and jumped on his back. He chuckled and pulled his arms around her.
"If you two fight at this dinner table I swear no one will ever find your bodies," I said to the both of them as they came around me to the table. Kikyko slid off Inuko's back and looked at me.
"Daddy's so mean," she said in a whisper to her brother.
"Yeah well you started it," he said to her. She narrowed his eyes to him.
"You go sit over there, and you sit there," I pointed to the seats opposite eachother. Kikyko huffed and came around the table.
"Wow, hahaha, you two never learn," Miroku said and slid out his chair next to Inuko.
Kikyko slid her seat next to Hoshiki he looked at her and slide his seat slightly away from his sister. He knew what was coming, he was next, more then likely he'll be smothered with kisses again. Something Kikyko doesn't seem to understand her brothers both hate it.
"Hakura," Hoshiki said to her. She smiled and looked at him.
"Yes?" she said to him.
"Can we switch places, I don't want to sit next to Kikyko," he said to her. Hakura covered her mouth and laughed.
"Hey why not!" Kikyko chimed and crossed her arms. Hoshiki pulled out his chair, so did Hakura. They switched seats.
Dinner went by rather well I'd say. It was eventful, Hakura and Kira chatted with Kikyko who I was surprised was very well behaved at the table, Inuko wouldn't stop staring at Hakura the whole night. His face would blush each time she brushed her hair from her face or smiled. I noticed this every so often, he's been inlove with that girl since they were both children. I wouldn't be surprised if they married someday. Hoshiki had fallen asleep in his chair, I laughed at the rice all over his face. Yuki and Koji, Sango's boys where placing rice over Hoshiki's face as he slept. He didn't even feel them do this. I shook my head and looked at Miroku.
"Boys come on stop picking on Hoshiki," Miroku said to them.
"Aw man," Yuki said and leaned back in his chair.
"Hhhahaha, don't snap the legs Yuki," Shippou teased him. I could see him use his fox magic to create a spinning top, which he shifted under one of the legs of the chair.
"Seems like Hoshiki is out cold," Sango said looking over at him. She smiled as his hand rubbed his face while he slept.
"I should put the runt to bed," I said and slid out my chair. That's when we heard, snap, and Yuki and Koji both landed hard on the floor.
"Hahhahaha, oh yeah," Shippou laughed hysterically. We all looked at the boys then burst out laughing.
"SHIPPOU!" Koji shouted at him. As he and Yuki picked themselves up off the floor.
Night had come quick. Sango and Miroku took their children home, well next door, they lived in a large estate right next to ours. Kikyko had curled up with Inuko on the couch in the living room watching a ridiculous action movie on the television. I held Hoshiki to my chest and took him upstairs to his room.
"Huh!" I said as the phone rang in my pocket. I reach into my pant pocket and pulled it out.
"Kagome?" I said answering it. I went through Hoshiki's room and put him in his bed pulling the sheets over him.
"InuYasha, hi…" she said. Her voice was quiet, she sounded exhausted.
"Are you okay? How's Makoto?" I asked her as I came out of the room closing the door slightly.
"She's asleep, she's so beautiful InuYasha, she looks like her brothers and has her sisters smile," she said to me. I smiled at then and went down the hallway to our room.
"Are you feeling okay?" I asked her as I closed the bedroom door behind me. I put the phone down on the bedside table, the speaker on.
"Yeah I'm feeling fine, just super tired…. What did you do all day?" she asked me.
"Trust me its best you don't know, all hell broke loose since Kikyko didn't get her cookies…" I said to her and shuffled around the room.
"Oh dear god I told my mother not to bring those cookies, she insisted the treat would pull them away from me so I could pee. Well it did work, for the most part," I said to him and chuckled.
"Makoto's room is done," I said to her.
"She sleeps in our room InuYasha," she said to me in a half loud voice. I chuckled and shook my head.
"Come on Kagome, I might want to love my wife a little….." I started to say until she cut me off.
"NO, WE ARE NOT MAKING ANY MORE BABIES. I SWEAR I'LL KILL YOU IF YOU EVEN DARE THINK OF TOUCHING ME," she shouted at me. I laughed loudly.
"Great," I heard her say as Makoto cried.
"Great you woke her Kagome," I said and laughed again.
"You move that damn bassinet InuYasha and when I get home you and I are going to have a problem," she said to me, as Makoto's cries became louder. Then the phone clicked.
"I love that crazy women," I said to myself and took off my shirt.
"Hey…" I said coming down the stairs towards the living room.
Kikyko and Inuko had fallen asleep on the couch together. They looked so cute cuddling eachother, I chuckled and pulled the blanket from the back of the couch and covered them with it. I sighed and came around the couch to the doors and windows locking them.
"Huh?" I said looking out the patio window, I narrowed my eyes to the brick wall.
"Is someone out there?" I said to myself reaching for the curtains. I'm sure I saw a figment move, something moved from behind the wall. I wasn't going to go out there and check, maybe it was a bird or something. However, it did worry me. I closed the curtains together and shook the door to make sure it was closed. Maybe I should set the alarm just encase. I looked at Kikyko and Inuko on the couch and turned off the light on the table near the tv. I wasn't worried to much about them sleeping downstairs and not in their rooms where I could be near them, Inuko's keen senses worked just like mine. He'd be very cautious and aware of anything around him, even when he's asleep. I came over towards them and kissed Kikyko on the forehead. Then turned to the stairs.
I went to our room and closed the door behind me.
"Man what a day," I said to myself and jumped in to the bed. I reached for the cell phone and awkwardly typed a message to Kagome. I usually never use this damn thing, especially with my claws, the kids and Kagome use the cell phone more then I do.
"I love you my queen, give my princess a kiss good night…" my nails clicked on the screen. I set the phone down and turned off the light on the table.
