"Don't worry little one I won't hurt you. What's your name?" I asked as I gently pushed her hair out of her face. Her hair was to her shoulders dirty, and black, her eyes were a pretty green.
"Tonya" she whispered then crawled into my lap, I smiled down at her as I healed her wounds "Thank you for frying me with your powers," she half teases "And for healing me,"
"Wolfs not on my menu," I joke and smile
'You're funny," Tonya replies
"I try, where is your family? Or tribe?" I asked as I picked up the bag full of water bottles.
"My family was killed by an ogre demon and eaten, my tribe is in the East under Prince Koga's rule,." she whispered and started crying again.
"Don't worry sweetheart, my group are on their way to Koga's tribe you can come with us and we'll take you home," I said smiling at the girl as she nodded.
"Thank you miss?" she said looking up at me as I carried her to my camp.
"My name is Sonya dear." I said as we walked into the camp. Everyone stopped what they were doing and stared at me and the cub in my arms.
"Oh my god she's so cute," Sango nearly squeals. Tonya slightly blushes
"Kagome here is the water." I said handing her the now full bottles of water.
"Thank you Sonya but where did you get that beautiful little girl?" she asked as she took the water and smiled at Tonya.
"I found her in the forest crying, her family was killed by an ogre and she needs to get back to her tribe..." I said but was interrupted by Inuyasha yelling.
"NO! We need to get going and kill Naraku we don't have time to take care of another child." I stared at him.
"First off we are already going to her tribe, she belongs to Koga's tribe. Second you don't take care of any of these kids with us, everyone else does. Now shut up and sit down." I said glaring at the half demon, and made a startling discovery bam he hit the ground "What the?
"Damn you Kagome you traitor," Inuyasha cursed the spell started to wear off and he began pulling himself up
"I did nothing bone brain," Kagome snaps "Oh sister of mine say the word s-i-t,"
"Nooo" Inuyasha yells
And I say it "Sit" bam
"Kagomeeeee," Inuyasha shrieks on the way down
"You, you can sit him? Kagome questioningly exclaims
"Didn't know I could," I say I am amazed and shocked
"I know what it is, at conception in many cases one egg divides making twins so in a sense it is almost like dividing a soul and both share it," Miroku explains
"Oh great, Kagome that is the night your father should have used one of those things in your time you told me about called a condom," the hanyou griped
As the subjugation spell wore off he sat down and glared back at me, I smiled at the child I held when she giggled "And yours could have flushed his contribution the night you were created," Kagome shot back, I just love riled up sis
"Come on sweetie let's get you something to eat." I said as we all ate our lunch, bathed then continued to Koga's tribe. We finally reached the den around dinner time three days later and I smiled brightly at the little girl who looked nervous. "It's alright sweetheart, I'm here with you." I said smiling at her.
"Thank you momma" she whispered, I looked back at her quickly and smiled kissing her forehead.
"Hey mangy wolf, we have something for you," Inuyasha yelled into the den
"What you finally washed out that dog butt breath mouth of yours?" a deep masculine voice responds "About time,"
I saw wolfs of all shapes and sizes rush out of the den and ran towards us, everyone even Kagome backed away but I stood my ground only to be knocked over by over excited wolfs. I giggled as they licked me and Tonya all over our faces. I sat up when they moved for Koga. I looked up when I saw his hand come into view, I grabbed his hand, he gently pulled me to my feet then we stood with our chests touching. I wanted him to wrap his arms around me and never let go. I smiled sweetly at him, and his grin widen when he noticed I wasn't afraid of him or the wolves. I pet some of them on their heads and smiled at Tonya who hid behind me.
"Koga this is my twin sister Sonya; Sonya this is Prince Koga," Kagome said grinning, I backed up from him and bowed to him and he grinned when I looked back up at him.
"What could you possibly have that belongs to me? Unless you are going to leave this gorgeous woman with me." Koga said smiling at me, my heart melted, I giggled which made him smile bigger at me and take a step closer.
"You can't have the woman but you can take her brat." Inuyasha yelled, I turned to Inuyasha and walked calmly to him and punched him in the jaw while everyone stared at me in shock along with Koga and Inuyasha.
"If you ever call her a brat again I will severely hurt you. She is only a cub barely three years old." I yelled at the half demon then walked back to Tonya who was now hiding behind a tree from Inuyasha who had a habit of being shitty with children "And before I forget SIT," bam
"Sh-she can sit you to? Oh this is just to sweet" Kouga smugly says
"Come on out child, I won't let anyone hurt you ever." I said, she looked up at me with tears in her eyes.
"Momma!" she cried and ran into my arms, I held her tightly then glared at Inuyasha who after the spell wore off had gotten up and jumped into a tree and sulked after I turned away from him.
"Koga, this little girl I found in the forest crying, she said her family was eaten by an ogre and they belonged to your tribe." I said as I walked to stand in front of him, he looked down at the girl in shock.
"Tonya? Oh god child, come on we will find you a home to stay." Koga said as he started to walk away, Tonya cried out he turned quickly and watched as Tonya ran away with me chasing her yelling her name. She finally stopped at the river and sat down crying hard, I sat next to her and pulled her into my lap, I noticed Koga standing by a tree, I motioned him to sit next to me.
"Tonya why are you so upset? I thought you wanted to return to your tribe." I asked as Koga sat next to me with his arm touching mine sending shivers down my spine.
"I did but you took better care of me than my own mother. You don't want me anymore." she cried and tried to get off my lap but I held her tightly.
"No baby, I do want you more than anything. I just thought you would want to be with your own kind, and to get away from Inuyasha. I can't leave the group until Naraku is defeated even though I would love nothing more than to get away from him, but my job is to protect my sister Kagome. You know that Tonya, plus I want you safe, and you being with Koga and the rest of your tribe is the safest place." I whispered, I had tears running down my face I hated the thought of leaving my baby girl here.
"Momma please don't leave me. I'll be good." Tonya cried, and hugged me tightly to her. I looked to Koga for help, he looked thoughtful, he turned and smiled at me like he just got a bright idea.
"Looks like you've been adopted," Kouga teased me "Why don't I travel with you guys and I can help protect this little one and the fox kit from mutt face. Plus I would love to get to know my mate." he said then stared at me, I smiled sadly thinking he was still after Kagome.
"I'm sure Kagome would like that." I whispered when I noticed Tonya fell asleep, Kouga's smile fell.
"I'm not talking about Kagome, sure I care about her safety but I have no other feelings for her. I was talking about you." he said, then kissed me gently every nerve in my body set fire. I smiled at him when we pulled apart.
"Momma can you sing to me?" Tonya asked, I looked down at her and grinned.
"Of course baby." I said shifting her more comfortably in my lap.
I'll be your candle on the water,
my love for you will always burn.
I know you're lost and drifting
but the clouds are lifting.
Don't give up, you have somewhere to turn.
I'll be your candle on the water,
?till every wave is warm and bright.
My soul is there beside you,
let this candle guide you.
Soon you'll see a golden stream of light.
A cold and friendless tide has found you,
don't let the stormy darkness pull you down.
I'll paint a ray of hope around you,
circling in the air,
lighted by a prayer.
I'll be your candle on the water,
this flame inside of me will grow.
Keep holding on, you'll make it,
here's my hand so take it.
Look for me, reaching out to show,
as sure as rivers flow,
(different pitch)
I'll be your candle on the water,
this flame inside of me will grow.
Keep holding on you'll make it,
here's my hand so take it.
Look for me, reaching out to show, as sure as rivers flow,
I'll never let you go.
I smiled when the song was over and Tonya was asleep in my arms. "That was beautiful" Kouga commented as he sat there dreamy eyed 'She'll make a perfect mate and mother to our pups' he thought
"Thank you" I whispered, smiling sweetly at him.
"Come on let's get everyone together so we can get going." Koga said smiling at Tonya and I, we both nodded then headed back to the den "I might have to pound dog breath until he agrees to our new traveling plans,"
Later on
"Oh fuck no, no way is the mangy wolf traveling with us," Inuyasha snapped
"I vote Kouga joins the pack" who agrees? Miroku said, everybody agreed except Inuyasha of course
"No way I will not allow," he started
"Inuyasha sit," furious Kagome said crash "Catch up when you can slow poke," she added looking over her shoulder as we walked away
"Hey mutt quit taking a dirt nap and get your ass in gear we don't have all day," Kouga needled, a string of muffled curse words coming from the hanyou could be heard
Two days later
We had all settled into our daily routines, Inuyasha finally gave up on trying to get rid of Kouga as a pack mate he even offered to keep Tonya with us and get rid of Kouga. Shippou threw a fit knowing Kagome would side with him and she did so didn't the others. Shippou loved Tonya they were like two peas in a pod, when Inuyasha teased him about marrying Tonya when they were all grown up Shippou pounced on the unsuspecting hanyou knocking him down and biting his rump, the group nearly died laughing as they watched Inuyasha on all fours running with the fox riding him it was like a rodeo, he tried shaking his butt to get Shippou to let go but failed miserably. Tonya applauded laughing like mad
"Runt ow let go and I'll get Kagome to ouch give you extra candy," Inuyasha yelped as Shippou continued biting him like he was a steak
"Hey kid don't chip a fang," Kouga razzed
"Whoa ride that pony," Sango teased
