More randomness! This one was particularly funny to me for some reason lol ENJOY!

"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOH, HIIIIIIIIEEEEIIIIIII!~" Anya came dancing over, her ears and tail twitching with excitement. "Guess what's in two months, three days, and 48 hours?" Hiei sighed, but didn't move from his meditative position.

"Your going to reveal yourself as a man." He answered sarcastically. Anya glared at him and crossed her arms over her chest.

"No prick," Hiei smirked, but didn't open his eyes. "Its my birthday!" His brow furrowed as his eyes cracked open just a little to glance at her.

"Why do you waist your time in remembering such inconsequential things?" She gave him a blank stare before putting a finger to her lips in thought.

"That's actually the first time anyone's ever asked me that," she said with a smile. She walked over and laid down next to his still form on the grass.

"Hn." He closed his eyes again, but by the way his shoulders were lowered, she knew that he was still listening.

"Its because, my mother told me to." She said. He peeked an eye open to briefly glance at her. She was looking up into the flower covered branches of the sakura tree that shaded them. She stretched out her hand above her. Hiei watched from the corner of his eye as a single blossom fell from the tree, landing peacefully in her hand. She brought the small flower down close to her face, and inhaled its wonderful scent. Hiei took in the brilliant contrast of the flower verses her deep seemingly bottomless ebony eyes. "Its the only thing I really remember about my mother. She died when I was around fifty, but every year, she would always make a point to ask me how many years it had been. So, I keep tabs. Its the only way I have to remember her by."

Hiei gave her a long look; something in him didn't like the far off look that seemed to be etched into her face like stone. He flicked her nose, bringing her back to reality.

"Gah! You ass," she said as she rubbed her nose irritably.

"I know what you mean," he said making her give him a confused look. He reached into his shirt and pulled out a necklace with a beautiful jewel tied to the end of it. "This was given to me by my mother. Its all I have left of her."

"Its beautiful. Its a tear gem right? I've never seen one in person; well, not a birthing stone that is. That night Yukina had that mood swing and started crying and demanding pickles doesn't count," she said with a sweat-drop. "I almost drowned in them then. And I've seen the ones that are sold in the black market, but they always seemed tainted. They didn't shine much." Her brow furrowed as she thought of the gruesome back stories to some of the black market gems she had heard; rape, torture, murder. Its no wonder those woman hate men. "But why would you show this to me? I mean, if what I had as a moment to someone important could be physically taken from me, I would guard it with my life."

Hiei tucked the stone back into his shirt. "Because I know that you could never get away with stealing it from me," he said with a smirk. She glared at him and punched his shoulder.

"You prick! I could so, I just don't want to," she said, sticking her tongue out for good measure at the end. He chuckled at her childish behavior; it was hard to tell that she was 299 years old. "Besides, with how many are buried around here, it would be stupid of me to try and steal the only one that's guarded." She said with a giggle. Hiei raised a brow at her before shaking his head and standing.

"We should be heading back. I know you are only out here to get out of cooking dinner tonight." She pouted up at him making him roll his eyes. "Would you rather not cook and have Kurama make a quick dose of poison for everyone to eat?" He said as he offered her his hand. She sighed and took hold of it, but before he could hoist her up, she pulled him back down to the ground, stood, and bolted for the temple.

"MUWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I WILL WIN THE RACE THIS TIME! NOTHING CAN STOP ME-!" She stopped mid step, her eyes wide as she stared up at the front porch steps of the temple were a rather annoyed Hiei was standing, giving her an irritated glare. "Awwwwww, no fair!"

"Hn."

"Oh Anya-chan! You didn't try to race him again did you?" Yukina asked as the disgruntled cat demon came sluggishly through the door.

"Damn cheatin' bastard; I should beam him with a left shoe," Anya muttered darkly, falling into a Russian accent near the end of the sentence. Her attitude quickly changed as she bounded over and gave Yukina a gentle hug, being mindful of her distended belly. "One of these days Yukina-chan, I will beat that brother of yours, and it will be glorious!" She said dramatically. Hiei snorted as he left for his room, making Anya stick her tongue out at him.

Yukina giggled at their antics.

"Well, you and the shrimp seem to be getting along today!" Anya turned to see that Kuwabara and Yusuke had just arrived through the front door. Yusuke gave a quick wave in greeting while Kuwabara wiggled his way over to Yukina, a bouquet of yellow daisies in his hand. "For you my sweet! Fresh from the garden!"

"Oh Kazuma! They are beautiful, but, wont Kurama be a little upset that you picked from his flower bed?" Kuwabara chuckled at her genuine worried tone.

"Nah, don't worry baby! I got permission first!" Anya rolled her eyes with a smile and left the two fluffy bunnies in the main hall, instead opting to talk to Yusuke who by now was sitting on the couch in the living room.

"Your an ass."

"What?" Yusuke gave her an irritated scowl.

"You left me there to drown in the sea of love and bunnies. As I said before; your an ass." Yusuke started laughing heartily as she flopped onto the couch next to him, placing her legs in his lap.

"What, you don't like big fluffy moments?"

"Its not that I don't like fluff from time to time, but those two are practically constant! I'd kill my mate if he was always trying to kiss ass. He should save that for when he's in trouble," she said with a crooked grin.

"Wait, you have a mate?! MY POOR KITTEN HAS BEEN DEFLOWERED?!" He stood, knocking her off the couch, thrusting his fist into the air.

"Yusuke, shut the FUCK up!" Anya screeched as she tackled him to the ground. They wrestled for a few seconds, each one fighting for dominance.

"What are you two doing?" They stopped, their limbs tangled, with Yusuke on top, squishing the life out of poor little Anya. Hiei quirked a brow at the two, waiting for an answer.

"You," Yusuke hissed out before standing abruptly, bringing Anya with him and holding her in a vice like hug. " It was you wasn't it? YOU DEFLOWERED MY KITTEN!" Dead silence. By now, Yukina and Kuwabara were standing in the door way behind Hiei, their eyes wide with surprise. Anya was starting to turn blue from Yusuke's insufferable hold, and Hiei's eyes widened, his mouth slightly open in shock.

"Yu-Yus-suke!C-ant. B-b-b-bre-eath-" Yusuke looked down at the half dead cat demon and instantly loosened his grip. She flailed around, gasping for air like a fish out of water making everyone sweat drop. Yusuke returned his attention to Hiei who by now was twitching in agitation; why did he tolerate these idiots?

"I don't know what you are talking about Detective, but I can assure you, that you kitten is just fine-"

"YUSUKE YOU IDIOT!" Anya's fist slammed into the side of Yusuke's face, sending him flying away from her and allowing her to fall to her feet unharmed. He landed face first, his ass sticking up into the air. "DEAR .FUCKING. GOD!"

"WHY KITTEN?! WHY?! LET ME VANQUISH HE WHO HAS SOILED YOU!" Her foot slammed against the back of his head, pressing his face into the hard wood floor.

"SHUT UP! I AM NOT SOILED! For your information, dear older brother-person-thing, I'm not even old enough to mate yet! So shut your mouth before you meet the business end of my left shoe!" Yusuke mumbled something into the floor as Yukina and Kuwabara gave Hiei curious looks. He glared at Yusuke's fallen form before flitting from sight, most likely to the surrounding forests. Anya sighed and kicked Yusuke in the ribs. "Now get up, you are going to go find him and bring him back for dinner."

"DAMN IT!"

Later on at dinner, the group sat around the table, poking fun at Yusuke's new batch of bruises courtesy of the irritated fire demon sitting in the window seat behind Kurama and Anya.

"Come on guys, it isn't that funny!" Yusuke shouted, crossing his arms in a pout.

"You deserve every bit of this Yusuke, picking on Anya-chan the way you did." Keiko said seriously.

"B-but Keiko-"

"No buts!" Yusuke sulked as the others laughed at his exspence once again.

"So Anya-chan, seeing as its already on the table, is there anyone you have your eye on?" Keiko asked slyly. Anya's face lit up like a Christmas tree making the other girls giggle.

"Why Keiko-chan, you know that I only have eyes for you!" She countered. Keiko gasped and fanned her face with her hand.

"On Anya-chan! Not in front of the children! Lets save this for the bedroom." Keiko winked at her, and Anya softly sighed; that was close. Not that she actually liked anyone per-say, but she hated it when people asked that question. It's her business after all. Right Hiei?

Hn. She felt him slink out of his mind, annoyed that he had been caught.

That's what I thought bitch! This is my mind!

"So, what should we do with our night? And please, no one mention a movie!" Anya shot a look at Yusuke as he put his hand down making Kuwabara snicker. "As much as I love movies, if I don't start being more active, I'm gonna turn into a fat lazy house cat."

"To late!" A random left shoe smacked Yusuke in the forehead.

"Thank you for that riveting speech from the peanut gallery." Anya said dryly.

"Oww-why don't we break out some beer and saki and just hang lose? I don't know about the rest of you, but I don't feel like going out tonight," Yusuke said as he hefted himself up off the floor while rubbing his forehead. He flinched as Anya aimed another random left shoe at him, but before she could launch it, she froze.

"That's... actually a really good idea Yusuke! Its been a while sense I've partook in a good drinking binge!"

"Alright! Come on Kuwabara, lets go get some drinkage!" Yusuke, ignoring Keiko's scolding glare, grabbed the taller mans arm and started pulling him out of the temple.

"Yusuke! Saki, beer, and some jack! Oh, and two 12 packs of root beer, a big bottle of vodka, and two gallons of vanilla ice cream!" Something close to an 'ok' came from the front hall making Anya smile.

"Well, come on guys, lets get this place cleaned up! We can push the table against the wall and set up a radio for some jams!" Everyone nodded, even Keiko who decided to let them have a little fun." Hey Hiei, will you help me buy moving some of the chairs against the wall while I get the dishes going?" Anya asked. Hiei gave her a side long glance before standing and taking the back of one of the chairs grudgingly. "Thank you Hiei~~"

"Anya-chan, why don't you let me do the dishes? That way you can help the girls set out some snacks." Kurama said while taking a few of the dishes from the table.

"Snacks? We just ate dinner, why would we need snacks?"

"Because if you drink like Yusuke and Kuwabara, you like to eat and drink at the same time."

Anya rolled her eyes but gave in. "Its a wonder that those two don't weight 400 pounds by now." She followed Kurama into the kitchen, placing her dishes next to the sink. As she turned to get into the cabinets to get some large bowels, Kurama grabbed her wrist, catching her attention.

"Can I help you?" He smiled down at her and removed his hold on her wrist.

"When miss Keiko asked you if you had any candidates-"

"Stop. Don't even repeat it. The answer is no, I don't." Kurama's eyes seemed to sadden just a bit, but he nodded in understanding. He had come to have a small crush on the cat demon, and had secretly hoped that those feelings were at least returned to some extent.

"Do you think that, after your birthday, you could feel differently?" Anya shook her head, her hands coming up to rub her own arms; it was suddenly awkward to be in the room alone with him. Great.

"Honestly Kurama, while I'm not old enough to mate, I have had crushes before; your just not my type. I like you, but as a friend." Kurama sighed, but gave her a small smile.

"If I'm not being to bold, can I ask what your type is?" He turned and started on the dishes.

"I'm not really sure," she said as she turns and opens the cabinets, spying the bowels she needed. Unfortunately, the biggest bowels are on the top shelf, and the counters are covered in crumbs and stuff from making dinner. Damn, I cant reach it... "But I if I had to guess, I'd say-" She was cut off by a hand reaching over her head and grabbing the pile of bowels that she had been trying to reach. She turned to see Hiei's hard Dr Peper red eyes staring down at her. He handed her the bowels.

"Thanks Hiei," she said with a huge smile. Hiei smirked and walked away.

"Short."

"Ass."

"Pussy."

"Thank you for finally understanding that I am a girl, and do in fact have a pussy." Hiei twitched and gave her a disgusted look over his shoulder. Anya laughed; did she take it to far? Maybe. Was it worth it to see his face actually show an emotion? Hell yeah. She walked over, giving him a small peck on the cheek. "Thanks for getting the bowels Hiei!" Hiei growled and wiped his cheek off vigorously.

But Kurama didn't miss it; he had watched the whole exchange with great interest. He didn't miss how Hiei's hand lingered on the counter top, holding her there, closer then he ever allowed anyone else to be; the small smirk that graced his face or the warmth that shined behind his eyes as he wiped her mock affection from his cheek.

"What are you staring at fox?" Kurama shook his head and gave him a reassuring smile.

"Sorry Hiei, I was simply lost in my thoughts."

"Hn." Hiei left the room, most likely to take his seat at the windowsill once again. Kurama went back to his dishes. Perhaps I cant make her happy... but maybe he can... I'll have to have a word with the girls...

It was around midnight, and their party was in full swing. Yusuke had invited Jin, Toya, and Chu. Jin, Anya, Yusuke and Kuwabara were all having a drinking contest, while Toya and Kurama siped on some Saki, talking to Keiko and Yukina who were both drinking sparkling grape juice, a non-alcoholic wine. Hiei was enjoying a supper sized Root Beer Float with vodca.

"Alright Shila! I raise you two shots!" Chu laughed at Anya's sickened face. But she wouldn't be out done.

"I'll meet your wager."

"Well I'm gonna fold. With Yukina being so close to her due date, I don't want to get to bad off, just in case, ya know?" He was by far the soberest of them all. Chu came after him, but honestly, when wasn't he drunk? Then Jin, then Yusuke, and dead last, and on her last leg, was poor little Anya. Her tiny body was close to collapsing, but she refused to give in to her bodies screams for sleep and water; Yusuke would never let her live it down if she passed out first.

"Read'em and weep bitches!" Yusuke shouted as he laid his hand down; royal flush. Jin and Chu laid down as well, both showing flushes of their own. Anya's head hit the table as she laid her hand down; two pair.

"Damn Anya! What the hell were you thinking raising him two? You should have just folded!" Anya glared up at Yusuke as she pulled the community shoot glass towards her, along with the bottle of Jack.

"Shut the fuck up Yusuke," she felt someone sit down beside her. She looked over to see Hiei. "Yo, whats up hot stuff?" She slurred out. He grunted and took the bottle from her, producing his own shot glass. "Hey, that's my drink."

"You should never take a shot alone," he said simply as he filled both of their glasses. "Besides, I was getting tired of watching you get your ass kicked by these sad excuses of card players." He placed her shot glass in front of her and lifted his own up. She smiled and lifted hers as well. They both tipped their heads back, taking in the warm liquid.

"Hey! I'll have you know that this is my third hand in a row were I wiped the floor with these chumps!" Yusuke said.

"Is that so," Kurama said as everyone had now joined around the coffee table. Hiei filled their glasses again. "Why don't we try a new game."

"What kind of game Kurama?" Keiko asked as she watched Hiei and Anya take another shot together.

"Its a simple drinking game. Between Yusuke, Chu, Jin, and Hiei."

"Not you Kurama?"

"I don't particularly care to die."

"Heeeeeeey, what about me?" Anya said as she leaned against Hiei's shoulder. She was quickly starting to hit the last faze of being drunk; the tired, cuddly faze. If Hiei held any discomfort about her proximity, he didn't show it as he poured them another shot.

"Hn, you'er already on the verge of passing out," Hiei said smugly. Anya rolled her eyes and took her next shot. God, only three more... never should have met his raise... Hiei's glass hit the table. "Now that her shots are out of the way, lets get down to business." Kurama set a small bottle on the table.

It was black, with fancy silver writing across the front that was in a different language. Chu's face lit up as he took in the sight of the bottle. "Oi, is tha' wha' I think it is?" He asked excitingly. Hiei smirked and uncorked the bottle, being careful to not spill a drop of the rare liquid.

"It is! HOT DAMN! Were the 'ell did'ya get 'hold of tha' stuff?"

"It was a gift from Genkei. She left her temple to us in her will, and it included a modest liquor collection."

"Wait, I am so confused," Anya said as she studied the bottle. "What the hell is it, and why does it smell like blood?" Chu chuckled and rubbed his hands together.

"Tha's because it is!" Anya made a face as she sniffed the air again.

"Well, it smells gross."

"It doesn't have to smell good. Its the effect that makes in fantastic," Jin said. "Its Elvin blood. This stuff will knock you on your ass and then some. Taking more then a teaspoon at a time can be fatal." Keiko gave Yusuke a worried look.

"Don't worry, for him we will make it half the lethal dose." Hiei said darkly, earning a glare from Yusuke.

"The rules are simple enough. Last one to pass out wins. If you vomit, your out. If you die, you lose." Yusuke snorted at that; honestly, it was just another drink. Kurama produced two more shot glasses and divided up the drink as regulated.

Each demon stared down their glasses; Yusuke didn't look to sure, Hiei looked bored, and Jin and Chu looked like kids in a candy shop. "Gentlemen, you may start drinking."

And so it was on. All four tipped their drinks back, taking the sweet life force down their throats. Yusuke grimaced and nearly threw up before the whole drink was down his throat.

"This tastes like shit!"

"Yeah, but give it a second, it's totally worth i-" Jin didn't get to finish his sentence as Yusuke's eyes suddenly swirled, and his head hit the table.

"Oh Yusuke!" Keiko shouted as she raised his head from the table. He let out a loud snore, making everyone laugh. Keiko huffed irritably as she released his head, allowing it to slam into the table again.

"Hn, how pathetic." But Hiei could already feel it as well. A soft tingling was starting in the base of his skull, but it wasn't unpleasant. He glanced over at Anya, who looked a little green from the smell of the bloody liquor. He tugged at her ear lightly, gaining her attention. She looked up at him groggily. "You better not throw up in my lap." She grinned, moving a little closer to him, her nose nuzzling his cheek; oh yeah. She had diffidently hit the cuddly faze.

"Don't worry, at this angle, most of it will run down the front of you before it ever reaches your lap." Hiei twitched, but made no motion to push her away, while Jin and Chu finally got over Yusuke's sorry shape.

Five shots later, Jin had made the mistake of attempting to levitate which made him vomit, and although Chu didn't vomit or pass out, he became more interested in drawing on Yusuke's face to really pay much attention to the challenge. This left Hiei, who by now was a little red in the face and wobbling ever so slightly; they hadn't even drank a 16th of the Elvin blood.

"It appears to be a draw. I cant carry all of you to bed anyways." Kurama said, corking up the bottle and tucking it away.

Hiei grunted at him before looking over, finding a passed out Cat demon curled up against his thigh. He poked her. "Onna, wake up," she smacked his hand away, giving him a half hearted glare.

"I have a name..." she mumbled out. He rolled his eyes and stood, letting her head fall to the floor with a loud thud. "mmmmmmmmmmmmgaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh."

Everyone chuckled, even Hiei who nudged her with his foot. "Baka, that's not even a word."

"You don't have much room to talk Mr. 'Hn'."

"Hn."

"My point exactly. Help me up." She raised her arm up, which Kuwabara grabbed and hauled her up. She sighed and leaned against the wall. "On ward to the warm beds..."

"Anya-chan, isn't your bed up in the attic?" Anya gave Yukina a blank stare before scrunching up her face.

"Fuuuuuuck me, yeah, it is."

"Why don't you sleep on the couch tonight. That way there isn't any way you could fall down the stairs," Kurama said. Anya scrunched up her face, but headed for the living room anyways; he was right. She was a little clumsy when sober, let alone drunk, even if the effects were starting to wear off thanks to her little nap.

She curled up on the couch, not even bothering with a blanket; she was still warm from the Jack. She heard the others go on to bed, and offhandedly wondered were Jin and the other boys were going to be sleeping. That was the last thought she had before she fell into a deep slumber.

The next morning, she was woken up by a gentle hand on her shoulder. She groggily opened her eyes and looked up at the person cruel enough to wake her. "Anya! Hurry up we gotta go!"

"Huh? Yusuke, whats-"

"KAZUMA! GET YOU ASS OVER HERE!" Anya's eyes widened as Yukina's enraged voice shook the whole temple.

"Babies?"

"Babies."

Anya shot up, ignoring her pounding head as she ran to Yukina and Kuwabara's room. The ice maiden was sitting up in the bed, her hands clutching at her abdomen. "Yukina!"

"Get them out of me!" Anya had to bite her lip to keep from laughing; while her being in pain wasn't funny, seeing the normally docile Yukina acting homicidal, was a sight that was very, very, rarely seen.

"Ok, Koenma has the portal ready, lets get her to the medical ward." Kuwabara said as he stepped in and scooped Yukina up into his arms. "The portals in the living room. Anya, go get Hiei. I don't know how he stayed asleep through all of this, but I know that Yukina will want him there."

Anya nodded and ran down the hall with out a second thought. She slammed into his room, making Hiei sit straight up in surprise.

"Hiei!"

"What? What's happened?" He asked as he jumped out of bed; it was like Anya to just burst into his room, but her tone worried him; she sounded frantic.

"It's Yukina! She's gone into-"

"I'M GONNA KILL YOU KAZUMA! YOU DID THIS TO ME!" Hiei glanced at the door and went to run to his sister, but Anya stopped him. For gods sake, he was only in boxers! Her face lit up in embarrassment; its not every day you see someone with Hiei's... physic... in their under wear. She may not have been old enough to mate, but that didn't mean she was dead from the waist down!

"At least put on some pants! My god, no need to give the nurses heart attacks!" She said pushing him back into the room. "Get dressed. I promise, Kuwabara has it under control, she's just having some contractions. They are already on their way to the hospital," she said calmly, her face still slightly flushed. Hiei sighed, but conceded, pulling on a pair of his black pants and a baggy yellow sweatshirt; He didn't have time to do his normal shirt and belt thing. He slipped on some boots and strapped his katana to his hip.

"Alrighty, lets go! The portals down in the living room." Anya grabbed his hand, pulling him down the stairs and through the portal in seconds.

At the hospital, everyone was starting to simmer down. After having to unfreeze Kuwabara, they finally got Yukina set up on some pain killers, making her much more stable. Anya and Yusuke laughed heartely as Kuwabara got his frost bitten fingers wrapped by one of the nurses.

"I'm so sorry Kazuma!" Anya patted Yukina's head.

"Now now Yukina-chan. There's no need to fret," she said. Yukina still gave him a worried glance. He smiled reassuringly at her, lifting a bit of guilt from her. Hiei stood in the corner, fidgeting with the hilt of his sword.

"So, how long do they think its going to be before these kids pop out?" Yusuke asked as he brought a cup of ice chips over to Yukina who had been begging for them sense they had got her onto the bed.

"The doctor isn't sure, but it shouldn't be longer the twenty four hours." The nurse said as she put the last bandage on Kuwabara's arm. "There you go Kuwabara-san, your all patched up."

"Really? Twenty four hours? Thats crazy!" Anya said. She laid her head gently on Yukina's belly and in a loud whisper. "Dear babies, it is eviction day if you do not evacuate the premises you will be removed!" Yukina giggled as Anya jumped back in surprise. "They kicked me!"

"Well, if you weren't so annoying-" A left shoe hit Yusuke in the chest, catching him off guard. "Were the hell do you keep getting these things?!" He demanded as he held the shoe up irritably. Anya gave him a blank look before nodding her head and turning away from him.

"Yes." she said. Yusuke face palmed himself.

"What the hell do you mean 'yes', just answer the question!"

9. Hours.

Thats how long they had all been sitting and waiting for these kids to pop out. Anya was wasting time by trying to build a house of cards. Hiei was pacing back and forth; he couldn't sit still. He was to worried about Yukina. And it didn't help that they had been kicked out of the room some three hours ago when things started to get intense.

Yusuke and the girls (Shizuru, Keiko, and Botan) sat in the chairs around them, chatting about the newest soon to be born members of their family. Kurama was standing near a window, his thoughts drifting off to some unknown place. Kuwabara wasn't with them; he couldn't tear him self away from her side for anything, aside from quick trips to the rest room.

"I cant wait! I wonder who they are going to look like?" Keiko gushed. Yusuke rubbed his chin before smileing goofily.

"Well lets just hope that they don't look like Kuwabara." Keiko gave him a scolding look, but she couldn't fight the smile that was on her face; she was just to excited to get angry.

"I don't care who they look like, all babies are cute," Botan said with starry eyes. Anya scrunched up her face at that.

"I don't think all babies are cute; I have seen some pretty fucked up babies in the states." She said earning a snicker from Yusuke. "Now granted, if they were my kids I would think that they were beautiful; but I have no obligation to lie about other peoples kids. Like one time, I saw a two year old who had such a strange face! His four head was protruding, and his eyes were to big for his face. He had huge ears; hell, his head alone was huge! And then he had this tiny little stick of a body. He was a sweet kid, and had the normal mental prowess of a two year old, but he looked like some kind of side show attraction!" Yusuke laughed loudly,making Hiei glare at him. Couldn't that idiot be quiet? "Laugh all you want, but I felt bad for the kid. Because it wasn't some genetic defect that made him that way; his parents were just as strange looking."

"Anya, that's so horrible," Botan said as she tried to hide her giggles. Keiko was also trying not to laugh.

"Meh, I don't particularly care for kids, so I don't feel bad about admitting the truth," she said with a smile. "Well, I guess I should say, kids outside of my family. I'm sure I will love Yukina-chans kids, even if they end up looking like their dad and uncle." She said. She glanced over at Hiei, hoping her comment would lighten him up a bit. She frowned when he seemed to not have heard her. Hes going to wear a hole in the floor if he keeps that up...

"That's right! It is possible that they could look like Hiei."

"Great, just what we need, a little Hiei running around," Yusuke said sarcastically. Hiei once again ignored them, opting for sitting at the window instead, his fingers tapping lightly on his leg.

"You are all waiting for Miss Yukina?" She asked softly. Hiei was standing before her in an instant, his moment knocking over Anya's pathetic looking house of cards.

"Gah! Hiei!"Anya scolded.

"What happened?" Hiei demanded quickly. The nurse smiled and looked down at the chart in her hand.

"Twins is what happened sir. A boy and a girl." The group cheered, all the girls jumping up and down in excitement.

"Yay, we get another girl!" Keiko said.

"Cant wait to take her on her first shopping trip!" Botan said.

"I cant wait to show her how to torture Yusuke!"... yeah you should know who that was.

"Hey! If she's going to be trained to torturer me, then i'll train the boy to torture you, Anya!" Hiei and Kurama ignored the group as they talked to the nurse.

"How is Yukina?"

"She is doing fine Jagonshi-san. She is a little tired, but she has asked for you and Anya-chan to be the first in the room. We are only allowing two people at a time to visit while she recovers some strength," Anya stopped jumping up and down, appearing at Kurama's elbow at the sound of her name.

"What did I miss?"

"We are going to go see my sister," Hiei said grabbing her elbow and dragging her out of the room.

"What? Hey, slow down! Hiei-" The nurse gave them a startled look as they disappeared through the door.

"Is he always so forceful?" Kurama chuckled and nodded his head.

"He is worried for his sister; he wont believe that she is safe until he sees her for himself." The nurse sighed but nodded, before leaving the group to continue their celebration.

Mean while, Hiei was still dragging Anya through the hospital looking for his sisters room.

"Hiei, will you please stop dragging me like a sack of potato's?" She asked him dryly. He grunted, but kept his hold on her. Anya sighed and plopped down onto the ground, bringing them to an abrupt stop.

"What are you doing? We don't have time for thi-" Anya yanked on his hand, catching him off guard and bringing him down to the floor next to her. He glared at her fiercely, his lips pulled back in a snarl. Anya rolled her eyes at him.

"I refuse to go any further. You need to calm down and relax. Yukina and the twins aren't going any were, and if she were in any kind of pain, they wouldn't be letting us in to see her."

Hiei opened his mouth to retaliate, but Anya put her finger up to his mouth, silencing his rant. "Hiei. I know that you are worried, but if you go busting in there like a bat out of hell, you might cause her even more stress. So please, for her, relax your shoulders and stop clenching your jaw." She said softly, catching him off guard. She smiled calmly at him, before standing and offering him her hand. "Now come on. Lets go meet your new niece and nephew." Hiei stared up at her hand before sighing and taking hold, allowing her to pull him up.

Although he wanted to storm the castle and barricade them all in there until Yukina was fully healed, he entered the room calmly, Anya's hand still holding loosely to his fingers as she lead him in.

Nearly thirty minutes later, Hiei and Anya returned to the waiting room. Kurama was glad to see that Hiei was a little more calm, but worry swept over him as he took in Anya's fidgeting hands. Her ears and tail were also twitching, signaling her distress. It seemed that Hiei could also see her discomfort, as he tugged on her ear lightly, breaking her from her thoughts.

"So? HOW WERE THEY?!" Botan asked excitedly. Anya smiled and danced over to them, her arms swinging around happily.

"Akio and Akiko are-" she paused, making the other two look at her expectantly. "so cute! Akio looks just like his mom, but get this, Akiko looks like Hiei! Only she has Kuwabara's eyes!" The other girls squealed happily, hugging each other in their joy.

"Oh great, I had a feeling that the spawn of evil was on its way; and whats worse, its a girl! Everyone knows that woman are the spawn of everything evil!" Keiko grabbed Yusuke's ear, pulling his head down to her level.

"What was that Yusuke?" She hissed out. Hiei smirked as he shoved his hands in his pockets; there was nothing better then watching Yusuke get beaten by his woman. Unless the idiot was on the receiving end as well.

Kurama walked around the group, coming to stand at Anya's elbow. "Are you alright?" He asked her just loud enough for her to hear. She jumped, her fidgeting hands falling to her sides. She looked up at him, and gave him a half smile.

"I'm fine. The last 24 hours have just been kind of hectic," she said. Kurama nodded in understanding.

"I was just wondering. You seemed to be thinking about something important."

Anya sighed, her eyes going down cast. "Yukina-chan and Kuwabara, asked Hiei and I to be Akio's and Akiko's god parents." Kurama gave her a surprised look, before smiling.

"Isn't that normally something to be happy about? You have only been with us for a few months, and Yukina-chan can already say that she trusts you enough to care for her children in the unlikely event that something were to hinder her or her mate to do so. Most would be crying in joy." Anya sighed and nodded her head.

"I am very happy with her choosing me as their god mother; but, why both of us? Why together? You know as well as any of us that Hiei isn't one to stick around for very long; hes only been around for the last few months to watch over Yukina and to be here for the nothing stopping him from leaving now." Her eyes became a little saddened.

Kurama glanced over at Hiei who was watching them intently. Hiei's eyes narrowed slightly; he knew that they were talking about him. "You know that he would never stay away for to long." Kurama said to Anya, his gaze shifting from Hiei back to the cat demonness. "Hiei might disappear from time to time, but he will always come back."

"I know that; he is loyal to your family." She said with a soft smile. But it soon faded into another frown. " But I'm just a guest; who knows how much longer I will be kept under spirit world care? How much longer before Koenma sends me packing back to Arizona-"

"Anya." Kurama put a hand on her shoulder, stopping her sentence short. "This is your family too. You are not just a passing acquaintance, and we would never allow Koenma to simply send you away." He smiled softly, his hand brushing some hair from her face. Anya ignored her instincts to move away from him; his cornering her in the kitchen the other day, still left her a bit uneasy. "This may have started as a mission, but I think I can speak for everyone, even Hiei, that you have become to permanent a fixture in our lives for us to just give you away."

She sighed, glad that he had moved out of her space, but nodded, a crooked grin spreading across her face. "Thanks Kurama."

"Hey Kurama, you and Botan are next! Lets get this show on the road!" Yusuke shouted from across the room. Kurama gave her one last smile before following the ever excited grim reaper out of the room. Yusuke, Keyko and Shizuru went to go find something to eat, leaving Anya and Hiei alone in the waiting room. Hiei sat down on one of the many couches, his right arm lounging across the back. Anya plopped down on the opposite end, her hands fidgeting in her lap once again.

"What did the fox say to you." Hiei demanded abruptly.

Anya sighed and fell over, her head coming to lay on his upper thigh much to Hiei's annoyance. "He was reassuring me about accepting Yukina-chans offer."

"Hn?"

"I don't- I'm not sure how much longer I will be staying with you guys; I assume that Koenma will send me on my way once things settle down in Arizona. Kurama said that the group wouldn't allow it."

"You don't believe him?" Hiei quirked a brow at her. She huffed in aggravation, bringing her arm to rest over her eyes.

"Its not that, its just- after December 30th, I don't know whats going to happen." Hiei looked down at her in speculation; it was true. On December 30th, she would go through the normal physical transformation that all demon children go through. She will change, both physically and mentally; she wont be the same Anya that he met back in Arizona.

"Hn. Is that all?" He asked snidely. She punched his side half heartedly making him chuckle. " I thought you would have figured this out already, having read all of our files. It wouldn't matter if your skin turned purple and you sprouted a second head; they wouldn't give you up for anything." Anya stared up at him, before giving him a soft smile. Like the one she gave him in the hall, this one caught Hiei off guard.

"Oh Hiei," she sighed out, propping her self up on her elbo so his face was only inches from her own. Hiei was trying to back his head away when she suddenly grabbed his cheek, making him jump, and then grimace as she pulled on it harshly. "Don't think I didn't notice that you didn't include yourself in that little speech of yours." She released his cheek. He glared at her and rubbed his face, trying to sooth the light burning sensation.

"Hn. Don't flatter yourself." She pouted at him, her ears thrown back in a defeated kind of way.

"Would you really let someone take me, Hiei?" He gave her a side long glance, his face betraying nothing of his thoughts. Anya frowned; would he really just let someone up and take her? He grunted, his hand coming up to flick her in the forehead.

"Idiot."

"OW! MEANIE!"

"hn."

Anya couldn't keep up her glare. While he would never admit it out loud, she knew that he wouldn't ever let anything happen to her.

"I cant believe that Kuwabara could make such cute babies!" Botan gushed as her and Kurama headed back to the waiting room. They had stopped at the cafeteria, passing on the baton to Kaiko and Yusuke to go visit the new parents. Shizuru was out smoking a cigarette, but she wanted to go in last any ways, so she could stay longer with out taking up the others time.

"I believe that they are just lucky that the two took after Yukina's side of the family," Kurama said with a chuckle. Botan nodded in agreement, her laughter floating through the hall. She stopped short as they opened the waiting room door.

"Oh my..." Kurama whispered. Botan giggled behind her hand, attempting to stifle the sound. There before them were Hiei and Anya. The first was sitting on the couch, his head thrown back, and his eyes closed in what looked to be a light slumber. Next to him, curled into a tight ball, her head resting on the fire demons thigh, and tail wrapped around her waist was Anya. She was also asleep; her left hand was resting atop Hiei's knee, while his held the tip of her ear between his fingers, apparently being in mid pull when they dosed off.

"That's so cute!" Botan gushed as she pulled a camera out of no were. She snapped a picture as Kurama tried to hide his amusement behind his hand. "This will be excellent black mail for later! I can already feel it!"
