Why did Kagome pull me aside like that? What is it she has to tell me? It must be important if she wanted to walk this far from the others.
"Miroku, where are you going?" Sango asked. Miroku grinned mischievously. Where else? I'm going to spy on Inuyasha and Kagome." Sango rolled her eyes. "You know if Inuyasha catches you you're as good as dead." Miroku shrugged his shoulders "It'll be worth it." He replied.
"Um, Inuyasha," Kagome started slowly. "Come on, Kagome, spit it out." Inuyasha said not meaning to sound so rough and demanding. Kagome stared at him with her jaw hanging down. "Maybe you don't deserve to hear this." Kagome said coldly. "No," Inuyasha said. "I'm sorry." "Okay, well then, Inuyasha, I'll tell you."
Miroku had finally caught up with Inuyasha and Kagome. "Psst, Shippo, come on." The kitsune was trying to catch up to Miroku without making sound and successful so far except for the fact that he was taking one step every 30 seconds. "Miroku, I'm just trying to be careful." Shippo said a bit too loudly "Hush!" Miroku warned, "We're pushing it as it is." "Right." Shippo said and jumped on to Miroku's shoulder as he peeked out from behind the tree they were hiding behind.
"Inuyasha, I'm pregnant." Kagome braced for Inuyasha's reaction. She was expecting him to start yelling, but instead, his quiet reply was "Are you sure?" Kagome was shocked by his method of response but immediately nodded. Now Kagome was sure he would do something drastic but he didn't instead he held in a gentle hug. Kagome wrapped her arms around him happily.
Even Miroku hadn't seen that one coming. I can't believe Inuyasha got Kagome to bear his child before I got any woman to bear mine. He thought.Shippo wasn't too shocked Kitsune like him have the best hearing of all breeds of demons he'd heard the heartbeat of the baby but he'd decided it would be better for Kagome to tell Inuyasha and not him. "IT'S NOT FAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Miroku yelled and he instantly clapped a hand to his mouth. I'm going to regret that. He thought. "SHIPPO RUN!!!!!!" But it was already too late Inuyasha had grabbed Miroku the second he shouted. Inuyasha held a menacing fist over Miroku's head. Oh, Shit. Miroku thought.
