Last time:

Don't get me wrong it was a great work out for me, since I haven't gotten to any training for the past like five days, but after about 6 hours of it, it gets really dull, especially since I mainly wasn't doing a lot of the fighting in the first place. So now they jumped across the trees avoiding most youkai affectively save for the ones that fly, or float or ride another animal that can fly, whatever. Tumitsu sighed.

Maybe it was a bad idea leaving to tell my family, it's turning out to be more trouble then its worth!! At this rate were gunna reach my village in about a week!! For once I absolutely hate having no sense of direction one so ever!

This time:

Tasho jumped from tree to tree, trees, that's all he'd be acquainted with for the past two or three days, as he could not be seen by cudako and tumitsu who were traveling back to the village, now don't think that tasho is a freaky stalker wolf-hanyou that's obsessed with tumitsu, he just wanted to keep her safe and what's a safer place then with his brother the person that had caused her such emotional trauma? Anywhere but. So the young boy was forced to follow the two in order to keep the slayer tumitsu and current love interest safe.

As of late the two were sleeping around a dull fire, cudako sleeping splayed out along the grass and tumitsu slowly inching towards him shivering, obviously cold despite the fire brewing, tasho resisted the strong urge to go down and warm her shivering body, he had to stay out of sight, no matter what it took.

----- The next day -----

Tumitsu woke the next day groggily, boy! Had she slept like a log last night! The slayer yawned and stood to year slight singing over in the bushes and went over and peeked only to see…..

"PEEING!!!!!!!!! IN THE BUSHES! PEEEEEEEINNGGG!!!! IN THE BUSHES!!!!"

"AIIIIIEEEEEEE!?!?!?!" Tumitsu backed away as she saw cudako standing with his back to her taking his morning piss in the bushes and uh… singing.

At hearing the scream cudako turned his head to see tumitsu with her butt in the dirt blushing madly, she had gotten her sleeve caught in a thick branch so unfortunately she couldn't move. Cudako yelled out and fell forward behind the bush and pulled down his fur wrap/skirt thingy he too blushing madly.

"W-where the hell did you come from!?!"

"S-shut up!!! I heard singing and come over here to see you urinating into the poor tree thing!!!"

"I don't sing when I go to the bathroom!!! And that "tree thing" is a bush!!!" cudako yelled back.

"Whatever, and you do too!! Now shut up and untangle me!!!"

"Humph!!! Fine!!!"

(Couldn't help myself!!!!! Hahaha I had a dream about it and just HAD to put it in there. I swear!!! i had a dream about it it was my inspration haha isnt that pathetic?)

----lateness-----

It had taken them almost three days but finally tumitsu and cudako made it to the village, the young slayer still on his back, twigs in her messy ponytail and scratches in her kimono and slayer's outfit but she was there. They reached her house to see her mother outside sweeping, kagome gasped and dropped the broom running to them.

"Tumitsu!!"

"Mom? Mom!!" tumitsu shifted on cudako's back jabbing her elbow in his face trying to get closer to her mother.

The two got closer before kagome stood beside cudako and smiled wide,

"Where did you find this cute demon boy!!?"

----anime fall!!----

"MOM!!!"

"What!? Hes cute!!! He reminds me of someone I used to know." Kagome giggled smiling madly, pinching cudako's freckled cheek. Kagome looked over cudako's figure.

1. Chiseled muscles that could be seen even with his armor on.

2. Long black hair tied up in a high ponytail with faint red streaks here and there.

3. Tanned skin, green eyes, freckles, and pointy ears.

4. Brown fur wraps and shin guard-like furs that started just under his knees.

5. Last attempt to look arrogant smashed by his soft green eyes.

Kagome laughed to herself,

Yep hes defiantly koga and ayame's son! What are the odds that he finds tumitsu lost in the woods? How sweet of him!! hey... didnt they have two sons? wheres the other one? last time i saw them they were little guys who wouldnt go outside without one another awwww.... they were so cute when they were little!!!!!

Cudako, unnerved by the silence and the creepy look tumitsu's mom was giving him broke the silence,

"Whatcha looking at me like that for?!"

"Good boy!!" kagome smiled wildly and patted his head like a dogs, she had to stand on her tip-toes to reach the top of his head comfortably, but you get the picture.

"Uh…y-yeah..." cudako stammered itching away from kagome little by little, feeling uncomfortable under the kitsune-hanyou's stare, also a bit curious as well he looked back at an embarrassed tumitsu with a wtf-is-wrong-with-your-mom!?!-look, before looking back at her,

Where have I seen her before?

The exact same thought was passing through tasho's head who sat in a tree not far from the three. The younger wolf racked his brain searching for the answer where he had seen this woman who was known as tumitsu's mother. Then it hit him.

I saw her in that pik-chur thing that father has! She looks the same as she did before, those kids that were there... that was all of us! I've met tumitsu before… I knew her, I knew all of them!

--flashback!!—

"Daddy who was that lady that came to visit us yesterday?" a young cudako asked his father, staring up at him with his big green eyes.

"Hmm? Oh you mean kagome! Well boy do you want to hear the story from the beginning?"

"Yes please!!!"

"Ok then, go get your brother and misayo and koru ((misayo is ginta's kid and koru is hakkaku's kid)) and I'll tell the story to all of you!"

"Ok!!!" the five year old ran off to get his brother and friends.

When he came back his father was waiting with a small pouch in hand.

"Sit down little ones and let me tell you the story of the "shikon jewel" ok?"

"Ya huh!!!" all chorused.

((Hahaha!!!! Im so gunna draw koga telling a story to all these little wolf cubs!!! Awwwwwww!!!!! Goddamnit that so cute!!!!!!! starry eyes koga-kun so sweet!!!! anyway on with the story!!! Blew ha!!!!))

"Ok it started out, I was about 16, 17 at the time. I was on a raid of one of the villages, one of my tribe had double crossed me and stolen a jewel shard, but I stole it back from him and he ended up loosing his life for it. Anyway, I left the wolves to eat and left, a little while later they called me back and I saw many of my wolves slain, at the hands of a half demon called inuyasha, at the time he was traveling with a monk, a demon slayer, a fox-child, and kagome, a mortal priestess able to see the sacred jewel shards that were embedded in my arm and both legs."

"D'ya still have em uncle koga?" young misayo asked timidly.

Koga shook his head, "no girl, not anymore."

"Why not? Were they stolen too?" koru interrupted excitedly.

"No, I gave them to kagome, but we'll get back to that in a minute, anyway… inuyasha and I battled, I was beating him of course! But I got a bad feeling, and my instincts had never done me wrong so we retreated. I realized that the priestess could see the jewel shards and kidnapped her right under inuyasha's flea-bitten nose. I tried to get her to work for me, so that my tribe could collect all the jewel shards and become all powerful! But as time went on—…

"Koga!! Are you telling the story of kagome and the jewel?" ayame came from behind him placing her arms around him.

"Yep just started telling it. Now Lemme finish these kids are gunna croak before we finish it if we keep having all these interruptions."

Ayame smiled and kissed the top of his head, earning an eewwwww!!!" from all of the kids watching.

"Anyway, where was I? oh yeah!! But as time went on I had started to gain feelings for the priestess kagome that I had kidnapped. We went off to battle the paradise birds soon after, I had proclaimed her my mate by then, but I hadn't marked her or anything I was saving it for later after battle and such but never got a chance kagome was rebelling me the entire battle and half way through that mutt inuyasha came to save her we battled for a long time before I was injured by the paradise birds king and he stole a jewel shard from my arm and in the end inuyasha defeated him for me, without me asking but oh well. I was injured and tried to fight him but in the end kagome subdued him and ginta and hakkaku dragged me away. I hadn't given up on kagome though."

Tasho saw his dad squeeze his mom's hand as though to say that it was ok, he loved her more now.

"Later some of the tribes were banding together to steal jewel shards from a castle in the east. I didn't go but some of my tribe were persuaded to go with the rest and I foolishly let them leave, for I was still injured from the encounter with the paradise birds and at the moment didn't care for anything but my wounds and kagome. In other words I was a lovesick wolf indeed. One of my tribe came back some time later injured beyond words bearing news that in had been a trap and that he only managed to get one jewel shard. I took it and ran to save whoever was left alive, when I got there I saw inuyasha and kagome and the rest he traveled with, inuyasha was splattered with the blood of my comrades, so immediately I assumed that he was the one responsible and fought him. I defeated him, and out of the castle came a demon wench by the name of kagura, im pretty sure she's still alive, she threatened me and told me that the jewel shard in my arm was a fake and it was actually miasma crystallized and this poison would kill me as soon as it reached my heart also that she was the one that had slain my comrades not inuyasha. But the poison had just activated and was unable to attack kagura, I was wounded further before that inu-turd saved me once again, he fought kagura and won but kagura got away. Kagome saved me with her arrow, breaking the barrier around the fake shard and effectively removing it, without having to lop off my arm like inuyasha was suggesting."

Koga laughed lightly looking slightly starry eyed remembering such memories that took place at least ten years ago.

"That day while battling inuyasha had mentioned a name that I remembered, naraku was the name... " abyss" when I left the battlefield and my dead comrades I swore that I would kill kagura with my own hands and that of naraku. For a while things were pretty calm every once and a while I would find inuyasha and kagome in a tight spot and save them, most of the time meet up with inu-turd because someone had kidnapped kagome again. I still had strong feelings for her and thought of her as my mate. My feelings for her were unwavering and never weakened during this period. I even brought her flowers every once and a while. Then one day a demoness appeared at my den having past ginta and hakkaku who were on guard. She claimed to be a princess from another clan, she also said that I had made her a promise long ago that I would come for her and make her my mate. I didn't believe her and of course I loved kagome still. So I rejected her. Of course later on I remembered the promise and cursed myself for sending her away. "

"Who was it who was it!?" cudako asked excitedly.

Koga smiled.

"It was your mom. Ayame."

Cudako looked confused for a minute before asking yet another question.

"But you said that it was a demoness! Mommy is human."

"Yes she is, im getting to that now."

"She came back few times before departing, she envied kagome much and so she…" koga looked up at ayame,

"I think you should tell this part you do know it best."

Ayame laughed.

"right ok, so I figured if koga wants a mortal wench I'll give him a mortal wench, I searched in the mountains for a long time before I found an old sorceress's lair, I fought with her for a long time before she gave me a potion that would turn me to human, the bad news was that I could never go back to being a demon if I took it, I didn't care about that though as long as I had koga I would be fine. So I drank it and experienced grave pain and sickness for the next two days before I woke and found that I didn't have claws fangs pointed ears or anything, I was a normal mortal woman. I went back to koga and told him that I changed for him. He didn't accept me at first but later on he started to develop feelings for me as well he soon gave up kagome and mated me. And then we had you to, cudako and tasho. That's why you guys are hanyou's because you're the mix of human and demon blood"

Koga continued from there.

"By then the great fight with naraku was over, I had gotten my revenge and helped inuyasha and kagome defeat that monster, after that I had given my jewel shards to kagome because she was the keeper of them. I mated ayame, kagome ended up mated to that mutt inuyasha. I hear that the slayer and monk are together now gunna be married soon, that's what kagome came up here to tell us yesterday."

koga took something out of the pouch that he had been fingering the entire time, well actually he took out several things.

1. an empty vial that's once clear sides were stained by a greenish mark that used to be the color of whatever was inside of it.

2. asmall shiny peice of paper with many peoples faces on it, they were all smiling.

3. a lock of raven black hair, braided and tyed up at both ends.

4. a small folded up peice of paper with words on it, they didnt look like someone wrote them, they were perfect.

5. another shiny piece of paper this one slightly largerand the people on it were different then the people on the last one.

6. an arrow head thats tip was permentaly stained blue and gave off a strange lingering pure aura.

7. a second lock of hair, this one hada red lock of hair braided with a black lock, it wasnt the same persons hair as in the last braid though, the hair in the second one was less shiny a bit more dull in color.

koga held up each item in turn telling the chilren about them, he held up the empty vial and said,

" this was the bottle that held the potion that transformed my mate into a mortal, it was one of the most important things that happened in my life, i felt that i needed to keep it to remember."

he put the vial down a picked up the braid of black hair,

" this was a present from kagome when she came to tell me that she and inuyasha were mated, a present of apology."

he picked up the first shiny peice of paper and held it up for everyone to see,

" this is me, ayame, kagome, inuyasha, the slayer, the monk, and the slayers younger brother. i remember kagome calling it a pict-chur. its basically a peice of paper that came out of this metal thing and it stops the memory and saves it, i dont really get it though."

he put them down and picked up the arrow head and second braid in either hand,

" this," he motioned towards the arrow head," is the head of the arrow that kagome saved me with when naraku poisoned me with the fake shard in my arm. i kept it in her rememberance and cant bring my self to throw it away."

the children leaned forward looking at it in awe,

wolf children: ooooooooo......

he motioned to the other thing in his hand, the braid of two color of hair,

" this is your mother and myself's hair, we braided it together as a symbol of love and togetherness a wolf-tradition of mating."

he put them both down and picked up the small folded up paper and the other shiny paper,

"this is an invitation tomiroku and sango's wedding, were going to be going to it next month. so make sure you wear your best furs!" ayame exclaimed happily before koga could say anything about the folded up paper.

koga showed them al the other shiny paper saying,

"this is another memory saving paper that came out of the metal thing that kagome had, its one of all of you when you were barely 1!"

the wolf cubs leaned forward and gawked seeing themselfs as infants, they werent even able to walk yet! there they were.. cudako tasho misayo and koru and two other children they couldnt identify.

" daddy who are they?" tasho asked timidly.

"hm? oh! them! theyre kagome and inuyasha's kids tumitsu is the girl and otoshi is the boy. there the same age as you and there hanyou's too."

"cool!!" cudako and tasho exclaimed happily.

there was a big silence between all the children and the two adults before misayo spoke,

"Uncle Koga? you know the story you told us?its missing something" young misayo said timidly tugging on the tail part of koga's wrap/skirt thing.

"Yeah? What?"

"An ending."

Koga thought a minute and laughed ruffling misayo's short black hair.

"Your right misayo, we do need an ending! Hm… and they lived happily ever after the end!"

-- End flashback--

Tasho mumbled under his breath as he jumped from tree to tree back to the den,

"Our parents got their happily ever after… lets see if all us kids will too."
