Now's time for the big event! Will it be a boy or a girl? Look like Jiraiya or Kaen? Read the below content to find out!
Kaen was waiting for Jiraiya in his apartment when he was dismissed from being mentor to the boys. She lay on his bed, and he sat next to her, only for her to murmur, "It's time for me to birth. Get ready."
He got up and got out a tarp, bucket and towel, the only things she said she needed, although he was puzzled by the tarp. He laid out the tarp and she walked to the middle of it, the wood bucket between her feet. She threw off her dress before a deep red flush blossomed all over her skin, only for blood to pour from her like someone had turned on a faucet inside her. She threw back her head and stayed still as the blood emptied into the bucket, to almost overflowing.
"Kaen, this is too much blood—"
She shook her head, her skin actually a healthy hue instead of sunburn red. Her knees began trembling as she growled deep in her throat, her ears flattening against her head as her pupils widened to the point her eyes looked black instead of green. After an hour of this, her breaths came out in huffs, her tail and ears burning all the brighter, turning blue on the edges.
Jiraiya watched with growing worry at how the kitten hadn't emerged yet. The female demon's face was drawn with agony as she waited, and he stepped forward, reaching out to her. "I might not be as good as Tsunade, but can I h—"
"Neeeooooowwww," she meowed, then burst into flame, her body transforming into her hineko form, only she was still bipedal.
He flipped back to avoid being burned, then watched through squinted eyes as an awful tearing sound came from her body before a small fireball emerged and dropped into the bucket of blood, blue flames licking the surface and eating up the crimson liquid as if it was oil. It was mere moments before all the fire went out with a sizzle, Kaen flat on her back.
"KAEN!"
He finally ran over to her, ignoring the blood-slicked tarp and smoking bucket. He lifted her up and saw she was smiling.
"Do I look hurt?"
He coughed back a sob and laugh at the same time, scolding, "I'd thought the building would be in cinders with how much you were burning. Did the kitten not make it?"
She snorted, her lips twitching. "He's fine. Come and see."
He carried her over to the bucket to see a baby with a puff of pure white hair and fire orange ears and tail, curled up in the bottom of the charred wood container, eyes shut. He was so still until Kaen reached out and touched his cheek, only for him to snap out and bite the tip of her finger, tiny tongue swiping up the bead of blood that welled up. He then let her touch him and mewed.
"Let him do the same to you, so he can recognize you as his father."
Jiraiya winced as his son's needle-sharp fangs pierced his finger, before a contented purr came from the tiny form. He lifted the newborn out into his mother's arms, his tiny hands grabbing at her bosom before he latched on to feed.
"Do you mind if I name him, Kaen?"
She shook her head as she used the towel to dab off the bits of blood that remained on their son's body.
"I'll call him Minato."
"Minato-kun...welcome to the world of mortals."
Awwww, I love it when the characters have kids! XD
