Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha...

A/N: Sorry for the wait. This chapter starts off really poor, because I had to force everything until a certain point- which I think you'll find rather easily. For some reason, this chapter is longer than normal, but seems much faster to read (maybe I'm just getting faster... (Shrugs)).

Oh well...

Hope you enjoy the chapter!

Title: Me?

Chapter 10: Fangs of the Fox, Wandering of the Wind

By: Sakura-chan88

--------------------------------

It's odd, isn't it? Everything you ever wanted to have, you have. A family, great trustworthy friends, and the ability to make others happy through music... Yet, you realize, you won't be able to have all of those... You can have your friends and family, but the music... It'll be over soon.

Won't it be?

Life has always been that way- sacrifices will always have to be made. Choices are always hard, and no matter what path you take, you always lose. You lose the opportunity to do something else, you lose the time it takes to do what you chose to do... It's always "Have one or the other." You cannot have both... You want to be a mother to your child, that takes time. You want to sing for others, that takes time. Even if the choice isn't hard for you, the sacrifice is a heavy one.

You're losing... yet gaining something in exchange. Sing til you can sing no more!

"Hai, mama."

I yanked the phone from my ear, keeping it at arms length as she shrilled with excitement, squeeling like a teenage school girl after her first kiss from her biggest crush. I was glad to hear her so happy, but I would have appreciated some consideration for my ears!

"Okaasan?" Shippo piped, walking into the hotel room with Rin beside him.

"We heard someone scream... Ah..." The teen eyed the phone in my out stretched hand curiously. Slowly, her eyebrow rose. "Isn't that Higurashi-obasan?"

I sighed. "Hai..."

"Why is she screaming? Is she hurt?"

"Iie, Shippo... I told her about the..." My throat contracted, the end of my sentance successfully interrupted.

Somehow, I couldn't say it.

I could tell Inuyasha, I could tell my mother. Hell, I even had no trouble telling Sesshomaru since Inuyasha wouldn't. Yet, my own son... I couldn't tell him. I was so scared he'd be mad, that he'd think it was a terrible thing, that he'd hate me and run away or distance himself from me... I was afraid he'd accuse Inuyasha of taking me away from him- or, at least, the time I could spend with him... Shippo looked for reasons to detest the singer, after all.

"I... I'll call you back mama!"

Shippo studied my face carefully when I turned away from hanging up the receiver. I know he's fairly intelligent... and it frieghtened me. Could he tell from my eyes? Could he tell from my actions? Could he tell-?

Yura burst into the room, waving her arms wildly, her face beat red, her purple curls bouncing-

Wait... Purple, curled hair... on Yura?

"You little brats! I'm going to get you for this!"

Oh dear...

"Aaaaah!" Rin squeeked and made a mad dash for the bed, squeezing in beneath it. Shippo was right behind her.

I stood back and watched as the two children crawled their way out from under the bed just as Yura rounded the corner, catching them both by their shirts. "Got you, you little scoundrels!"

"Yura, Yura, calm down," I coaxed, taking the kids from her grip. "I'll deal with them. You go rinse that out."

"Already tried."

'Oh... Sugio, these kids are good... I didn't think it was possible...'

"Well... Go find a Beauty Salon or something," I ordered, shooing her out the door. She sighed and left, grumbling about "ungrateful kiddos" and their horrid behavior. "Now, mind explaining to me what you were thinking?"

Rin twitched nervously, gazing intently at the ground. Her hands hung limply at her sides, self-pity radiating from her. I could practically hear the voice in her head: "Shoot... So close, too."

Shippo, on the other hand, placed fisted hands on his hips, mimicking my very own scolding pose, and glared. "Mind explaining what the screaming was for?"

My brow arched. "Oh, is that how it is?"

"Yeah."

With my narrowed eyes still on Shippo, I ordered: "Rin, go find your brother and tell him to come here... Then go find Sango and stay with her til I get you."

She scurried out of the hotel room in a hurry, stumbling to close the door behind her. Sighing, I moved to sit on the bed, motioning Shippo to sit beside me. A quick glance around the room and a deep frown later, he crawled up in my lap.

"Shippo-chan," I began, running my hand through his hair, calming myself, "I-"

The phone rang loudly, causing me to jump in startlement. "Great... and just when I get the courage... Moshi, moshi!"

"Kag, we've a got problem," Sango announced, yelling to someone the background to quiet down. "You need to get down here- front desk- asap."

"What's going on?" I asked, setting Shippo on the ground.

"Sesshomaru just got here, and he brought someone... I really think you should hurry."

"Where's Shippo?"

"Hush!"

"Sango-chan, who was that?"

There was a light click, signalling the end of our conversation and the start of dred building in the pit of my stomach. Who was looking for Shippo? I glanced at him from the corner of my eyes. He was watching me with those intent orbs of his, waiting for me to say something. I smiled softly and motioned for him to follow me as I left, each step seeming to echo, even on the carpetted hallway floor.

Inuyasha was waiting next to the stair well, his eyes down-cast. Why did he always have to look so down when he should be happy? "Wait... Shippo, can we talk?"

The little boy's eyes widened drastically, though he still nodded. "Is something wrong?"

The singer laughed humorlessly. "It all depends on how you feel about everything. For me, yeah- a lot's wrong with this. Kagome, too..."

"Inuyasha, was that...?" He merely shook his head in affirmation. "Well... Maybe I shouldn't go."

"I think you should. I want to know if I should, though..." Inuyasha sank to the ground, looking completely helpless with his knees drawn to his chest. "I don't want to be there if I have to act like a witness and not a parent. It's all up to you, shorty."

"You're the only person I know that asks someone to make a decision that can hurt you, and expect them to make the one you want after insulting them."

Oddly enough, that was Shippo, sitting down next to the pitiful looking man.

Inuyasha chuckled at the statement and ruffled the kid's hair. "Yeah, I gotta change that, huh?"

Shippo shrugged. "You wouldn't be the same Inuyasha if you didn't insult me."

"And, would that be good or bad?" Inuyasha implored, his narrowed gaze locking with the eyes of a thoughtful Shippo. He twitched slightly at the sound of the elevator opening to my left, a couple walking quietly away. "You two really need to get down there."

"Shippo-chan?" I called out, kneeling beside him. "What are you thinking?"

"It would be awful," he whispered, his nose flaring and his lips puckering at a sour thought. "I wouldn't like it."

"Why not?" the singer asked, thoroughly confused. "I'd be nicer and-"

"I'd have no reason to fight you."

I snorted in good humor, tucking the boy into my side and kissing his cheek. "A family isn't a family without a struggle to test their strength. I think we have a strong bond here- look, I can see it!" I laughed, grabbing Inuyasha's hand and intertwining it with Shippo's. "There! See it?"

Shippo stuck his tongue out at Inuyasha and Inuyasha snarled, shaking a fist in mock anger, before both laughed. Inuyasha stood up slowly and jerked his head toward the stairway, barking, "Foward, march!"

And we set out at a slow, steady, knee-lifting strut, stopping only to open the stairwell doors that blocked our entry and exit, then again only when Sango stood directly in our path, glaring at me, Rin standing uncomfortably by her side.

"What took you so long!?"

"Mmm... Had to do my hair up nice and spiffy!" I lied, pointing at my here-and-there tresses.

"Had to brush my teeth- see!" Shippo replied, opening his mouth wide to show all his pearly whites.

"Had to take out the garbage."

"It's a hotel, Inuyasha," Kagura muttered from her cozy looking seat, busy filing her nails. "Housekeeping does that for you."

"I meant out of my vocabulary- just temporarily. Don't want an assualt charge against me- that would be no good," the man explained with a slight growl. "Now, let's get this started so we can finish it once and for all."

Sesshomaru stood from his seat next to his wife, and along with him stood another woman on his left. She was fairly tall, her brown hair highlighted in a deep red, and her large blue eyes shining as she looked at Shippo. The boy stepped away, behind Inuyasha, causing me to move closer to the straightbacked singer.

"This," Sesshomaru began, "is Kitsune-san, Shippo's birth mother. She's here to take Shippo home."

"Oh, so you know where our cabin is?" Inuyasha hissed, shifting his weight to one foot and placing his empty hand on his hip. "That's the only home he has."

"Inuyasha, let's just hear her story," I said out loud, whispering, "it'll be over sooner."

"Keh!"

"Listen- I was having a lot of trouble watching over him with the new job I had, and my boyfriend constantly buying my time with little gifts and... and stupid promises. I'm not going to stand here and pretend I was innocent- I knew what I was doing when I left him. I knew the heartbreak he'd go through, and the chance that I might never see him again..." She paused breifly, looking at a man sitting in the chair to her left. He nodded, and she continued, saying: "I knew, however, that it was better for him at that present moment in time to be away from me, because-

"Because of all the stress and all the time I had to ignore him completely just to finish my work before Hitou stopped by. And because I wouldn't have the money or the time to raise him up respectably when the time came for my baby to be born."

I gasped, letting go of Shippo's hand as if it were on fire, stumblling backwards as I did so. 'No... no, don't do this! Stop! Stop...! I can't hear anymore of this...'

Everyone spun to look at Shippo, to see his reaction. He paid them little attention, his concern focused on me. "Okaasan?"

I fought for air a moment, my lips quivering. "I... Inu... Shippo..." I shook my head vigorously, trying to clear away the pain Ms. Kitsune's words caused. My head bowed slightly, showing a subdued body where inside choas reigned. Gently, I voiced the first thing my mind told me. "How... How could you... give up something so precious... knowing it would be lost and hurt? Knowing that it's glow would dull?"

"Shippo's a wonderful little brat- and too intellegent for his own good, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing... Just slightly annoying at times," Inuyasha grumbled. I could feel everyone's eyes still on me, but I kept quiet, letting my husband speak for me as I willed my heart to slow its pace. "He's great- I wouldn't give him up for anything- and neither would Kagome. After what you put him through, there is no way you can possibly think you have any right to see him- and if you came here to take him away, as you say you did, you can forget it. No court would give you custody of a little boy when you obviously can't support him."

Then it clicked. Something just told me...

"Where is your baby, Kitsune-san?" I asked, tilting my face enough to see through my bangs.

"Dead."

"And that will hurt even more to your court case," Inuyasha growled.

I shook my head slightly. "I... I don't know what Shippo thinks about all of this... but, if it's okay with him, ma'am, Inuyasha and I," I said, giving Inuyasha a pointed stare, "would be more than happy to let you see Shippo whenever the both of you like. Be a part of his life, and have the time you need to heal from your loses and all the stress."

"Like some third-wheel!" she shouted, moving foreward a step. "You can't possibly expect me to act as some- some aunt to my own child!"

"I never said 'act'. You should never have to act like you care. Be there to show you care, and let Shippo-chan see what happened was a mistake- that you'd never make it again if you had to do it over," I ammended. "You can't expect everything to be okay after something as drastic as that. You need to give him time to either forgive or forget, and both take a long time."

"How can you possibly know what that means! You can hardly be a day over twenty!"

"Actually, I'm turning twenty-one in exactly one week."

The woman fumed visibly. "That's my point- you're too fucking young to know-"

"That swearing in front of small children is wrong, that it teaches them to be mean and vulgar; that a good parent needs to have patience and time to love their child; that fighting is the solution to no obstacle that's ever been encountered- flexibility is; that raising a child is rewarding and the best possible feeling a woman can ever have- to see someone so small grow to become a respectable person people look up to?

"Of course I'm too young to know all that. But you learn as you age, and at a certain point in aging, your knowledge and actions are set and won't change without a great struggle you mostlikely will get fed up with and stop fighting against.

"I'm young and flexible. I can change if I need to- and if it's too tough, I'm just stubborn enough to stay at it until it changes.

"Do you want me to keep going?"

There was a resounding silence, every mouth in the room slightly agape. The gentle ticking of a clock nearby could be heard, as well as a few clinks of pots and pans from the kitchen off to the side of the front desk.

"Now, you can show Shippo you've changed, or that you're willing to, by being that 'third-wheel', as you so enduringly call it, and be like a mother- not 'act' like an aunt. Or, you can walk out that door with your dignaty barely trailing behind and go home, heal from your loss, and come back again when you have a better arguement. Or you can take us to court, lose more money than you have, lose the case, and the time it took to organize everything."

"Take your pick," Sesshomaru stated, clearing his voice.

"Or," I began again, "Shippo can choose for us all. It should be his decision, since it determains a great deal of the rest of his life."

The small boy looked at his mother for a moment, then looked back at me and whispered just below my hearing level. He shook his head and tried again. "Am I going to have a baby brother?"

Inuyasha reacted faster than I, dropping to his knees in front of Shippo. "I was thinking a sister..."

"Shippo-chan?" I called, my voice shakey.

The boy grinned from ear to ear and punched Inuyasha on the arm lightly. "Jerk. Taking okaasan away from me."

'So, he understands.' I sniffled lightly. "Arigatou, Shippo-chan."

"For what?"

"Understanding."

He shrugged. "I guessed it when I heard Kouga suggesting names that were ridiculous."

"Oh? Like?"

"Like Aya, Ayame, Emaya, Kou, Kouga, and Agou," he repeated, ticking the names off one finger at a time.

"You forgot Ayagou and Kouyame," Inuyasha corrected.

"Oh brother- I hate to be Ayame when they... Nevermind- she'll love those names," Sango chuckled. "Which reminds me... Where are Miroku and Kouga?"

"At the Dialone park-" I could have sworn I heard Kagura gasp lightly at that, but I brushed it off with am inward shrug, "-helping Jaken with preparations."

"Glad I'm not them," Kagura huffed, picking up her discarded nail polish to apply a new coat.

"Un. I agree."

"Hello- can we please get back to the problem at hand," Ms. Kitsune inquired, hushing the man beside her as he continued to argue with something she said. "I... I want Shippo to decide. It is only right, after everything I've put him through." She bit her lip before looking at her son, smiling weakly. "Can you give me a chance?"

"Where'd Hitou go?" Shippo asked, returning her gaze, without a smile.

"He left before the baby was suppose to be born."

"What happened to the baby?"

"The doctors say the stress and heartache killed her... She died during birth."

"I'm sorry to hear that," Sango whispered, her hand absently rubbing at her growing abdomen.

"Do you mind," I began, moving toward her slowly with Inuyasha and Shippo following at my signal, "if I ask you for your name, Kitsune-san?"

The woman smiled softly, extending her hand to me. "Watakushi wa Kiba (I am Kiba(Fang))."

"Kiba?" I repeated dumbly, shaking her hand. "Kiba, Shippo... What was your daughter's name going to be? It sounds traditionary."

"My father was Shippo, my mother named me Kiba. I was going to namemy daughterAshi (foot/paw)."

"Hmm... Kitsune Shippo, Kitsune Kiba, to Kitsune Ashi (full english: Fox tail, fox fang, and fox foot)," I named, nodding at each of them. "I think it's clever."

"Great- another thing Inuyasha'll tease me about," Shippo grumbled, slapping his forehead.

"At least you weren't named Kitsune Iki(breath)," Inuyasha grinned, ruffling the boy's hair with a bark of laughter. Shippo bit him. "Ite! You should've been named Kiba, you little heathen!"

And off they were.

Sighing, I turned to look Shippo's mother in the eyes. "Listen- you do anything to hurt that boy again, and I'll go to jail for murder, understand?"

Kiba smiled brightly and nodded. "Hai. Ne, I didn't think I'd be happy about this either way- getting him back or having to leave without him, but this worked out splendidly- for the both of us, I believe."

"Iie- for the three of us. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a husband to reprimand and a friend to find," I muttered, exitting the room in haste, beckoning Sango to follow me.

"You," she hissed as we entered the stairwell, "lousy bitch- when were you gonna tell me!"

Before I knew it, I was hugging her tight, crying everything- all the fears that had run through my mind, all the pain that had held me captive, all the words that clung to me and wouldn't let go, dragging me to the bottom of my short rope of sanity- to the one person who I shouldn't have.

Because you know everything you say to Sango is retold to Miroku- and Miroku is the biggest blabbermouth of all.

(Sigh) I never do think ahead.

----------------------------

I woke in a cold sweat, sitting up at a break-neck speed as I panted painfully, trying to calm my racing heartbeat. My ears were ringing and my eyes burned, my face wet with tears. That dream...

My hands instinctively traced down my legs to check for any wounds, and my side for any blood.

Nothing.

I sighed in relief while running shaky hands through tangled hair, and lowered myself back into Inuyasha's arms, the man still fitfully asleep. My fingertips moved to his ear, sliding slowly down his jawline to stop at his chin; then they smoothed down the fine hairs of his eyebrows and skied off the slope of his nose; they danced gently across his cheek and into his hair, brushing it back lightly, before doing a full ring back around his ear, down his jawline, and to his chin, resting below his lips.

It was for comfort that I did this, helping to place him in my memory. If I could recall his features at any time, I'd never be alone.

I'd never be alone.

"Inuyasha... Don't you ever let anyone separate us," I whispered, laughing as, at the exact moment I finished speaking, Jack yipped for attention. "... As a couple, I mean."

Crawling out from under the light covers, I stood and brushed my hair into a loose bun, picking the pup out of Shippo's grasp. The boy's lips turned downward as he snuggled deeper into the blanket. I tucked him in with my free hand and patted his ruffled hair, grinning when he growled in his sleep. I left the room a moment later, deciding I needed a little fresh air- and a walk would help me clear my mind and believe that my pain from the dream was only a dream.

Miroku was in the lobby, flashing his trademark smile to the female bartender, with Kouga beside him grumbling about the upcoming concert. The grumbles stopped upon my arrival, Kouga knowing I had it worse with the solo that 'Kagome doesn't know about', and the smile faded a fraction, Miroku knowing I was pregnant and probably highly stressed and would be less patient with his flirtations.

"So... What's with the pup?" Miroku asked, his low-grade smile turning to a full blown grin.

"Haha... Let's see... One is just as hyper as can be," I groused, glaring playfully at the wriggling papillon, "and the other is, shall we say... a gift for love and loyalty?"

"What are you coding about now?"

"It isn't a code," Miroku hastened to explain to Kouga who looked annoyed of confusion. "Our ol' buddy Inuyasha is having a baby!"

"Inuyasha's pregnant?"Kouga barked, jumping to his feet. "What the fuck is wrong with this world!"

'... Baka...'

"Hai- Inu's pregnant, and I'm a guy," I drawled. "I had major surgery when I was eighteen."

Kouga fell back in his seat, smaking a hand over his face. "I am so fucking stressed out, I ain't even thinking straight anymore. Shit- my hair's going to start turning gray soon, too, I bet. You mark my words on that."

"I'll do that."

"So, what are you doing up, anyway. It's," Miroku paused to glance at Kouga's watch, "2:12 in the morning."

"Sugio... Everything is so backwards."

"Lucky for Inuyasha and Shippo, scheduels are easy to change for them... since Inuyasha stays up to funny hours of the night, anyway... It's funny how sitting around tires him out more than..." I blinked, and smiled. "Anyone feel like taking a walk?"

"Aw, and here I was, thinking I'd finally get to hear it all," Miroku pouted, standing from his seat. "Where are we headed to this lovely night-mid-morning?"

"... Night-mid-morning?" Kouga repeated slowly. Miroku shrugged.

"Mm... I hear there's a nice little park around here somewhere."

Kouga got to his feet, picking his jacket up from the back of his seat. "I know where it is. Stopped there yesterday with Rin and Kagura..."

"Speaking of Kagura," Miroku began, following Kouga out of the high-arching hotel doorway, "has anyone noticed a change in her?"

"You think she's pregnant, too?" I asked, thinking back to the brief moments I'd seen the manager in the passed few days.

"No, that's not it," he was quick to interrupt. "I mean, have you seen the way she's constantly looking behind her, or how she quickens her step every time she hears footsteps? Yesterday, Sesshomaru called me to their room- he wanted me to watch Rin while he-"

"Wait- Sesshomaru wanted you, the lecher, to watch his teenage sister..." Kouga chuckled, betting me to it for once.

"That girl is like a sister to me, too- I'd never touch her like that."

"Kagome's like a sister to you- you said it yourself- and you still-"

"Haven't for almost a complete year and won't until Inuyasha's out of the picture," the drummer purred, reaching out his hand which I slapped aside. He grinned and continued with his story. "As I was saying... Sesshomaru wanted me to watch Rin while he and Kagura went to dinner -almost right after Kouga got back to the hotel with them. Sesshomaru ordered Rin room service, and when the lady knocked at the door, Kagura jumped. Then, when Rin got up to answer the door, Kagura ordered her to stay where she was... She didn't let the girl in the room either- just pulled in the cart and slammed the door shut. It was like she expected trouble."

"So, you're saying..." I prompted, setting Jack on the ground as we entered the park.

"I think she's been threatened... or maybe someone's stalking her."

Kouga chortled, "Kagura? Hey, she may be good looking, but even I wouldn't go for the Ice Queen."

"And you also wouldn't have gone for Ayame-chan if I hadn't said anything," I muttered under my breath. "You don't really have to like someone- or lust after them, or whatever- in order to stalk them like some lunatic phsyco- and this person has to be if they're managing to scare Kagura. You could be out for revenge."

Miroku shrugged. "Whatever the reason, we shouldn't let her go anywhere alone... Not that she would want to if she's being stalked."

"Kagura isn't exactly the most sociable person, though."

"Uh... guys," Kouga whispered, crouching close to the ground before scurrying behind a conveniently placed bush.

All internal red-alarms shrilled through my mind as, a second later, I too hit the ground and crept behind the leafy plant, Miroku a step ahead of me. I didn't bother to ask what he was reacting to, because a heartbeat later, I heard the clip-sch-clip-sch-click-schuch-clip of a very familiar pair of high-heel adorned feet.

Kagura.

How... coincidental...

"What is she doing? Alone, especially..."

"I would have been alone if you hadn't been in the lobby-" my eyes bulged. "Jack! Where'd he go?"

"..."

"..."

"Jack? What are you doing out here!?" Kagura's heels stopped dragging on the ground as a familiar yip shot through the air. Then the sound of paws scurrying toward the voice rang in my ears.

'Oh God... Please, please don't run back our way...' And sure enough, the scuttle started back at us, each of us looking to one another with panicking eyes. 'Stay there, Jack! Stay, stay, stay!' I mentally plead.

"Oh no you don't, little one! I'm taking you back to the hotel," Kagura stated, her heels clip-sch-clipping in a fast pace. "Shippo would have nothing to hold on to if he lost his puppy and his mom."

"What...?" I breathed. Miroku and Kouga both slapped a hand over my mouth.

"Come on, it's too late to play games. Out of all the living beings- you should be the one asleep..." She sighed deeply, and both sets of footfalls ceased. "Ne, you remind me of my little brother, Musou. He was always sneaking away- right under Naraku's eyes... And my father never was good at taking defying actions lightly. Even calling a minute after the set time... or a second too early... Still, Musou- poor kid never got to live his life, ne, Jack?"

She laughed humorlessly before she walked steadily away. "I never thought I'd miss him. But, here I am, wishing I had someone by my side who could understand... I wish Sesshomaru had been fooled last time, maybe he would still believe I'm really loyal if I told him this time... No, it's been almost a whole year..." and her voice gently drifted away.

"Holy shit," the boys said in sync.

I hurriedly whispered, "as said in the words of Kagura herself: Life is full of surprises, some pleasant and many unpleasant, but either way- it's to be viewed from all directions before conclusions are made..."

We looked at each other, mentally arguing about her words, until, as one voice, we chocked, "she's cheating on Sesshomaru..."

And what a conclusion we jumped to.

Boy, life loves to get most stressful at the worst times.

"Ack!" I hiccupped, leaping to my feet... "She's going to see I'm not in my room!"

"Oh man..." Kouga coughed, pointing towards the entrance of the park. "She turned the wrong way. Do you think...?"

Miroku pushed me toward the entrance, pulling Kouga with him. "You go back to your room incase she's circling the block or something- we'll follow her... Er..." He eyed Kouga's attention grabbing skyblue top. "Perhaps you should go with Kagome. She's bound to notice you."

"Now wait a minute-"

"Come on, Kouga, we don't have time to argue about this- he might lose track of her! Plus, I don't want to walk back to the hotel alone... And beside needing to be there before she gets there- I've really got to pee!"

--------------------------------------

A/N: (snorts) Yeah, I'll leave of on a high note for Kagome. P They are definitely jumping to conclusions... or are they? O.o; Oh God, this is getting messed up. What do you think is going on? An affair? (Hint: I love Sess/Kagura pairing...) Someone's stalking her? (6.6 lets see here....) Or something entirely different? (Mmm... Blood! Taste like chili...! I mean, chicken!)

And what's up with her saying that about Shippo losing his pup and his mom? Ah... What mom, exactly? o.O Ick... A lot of junk is surrounding Kagura right now...

Kagome's pregnant, Kiba lost her daughter during birth (you may want to remember that... It may or may not be important later (stupid mind that twitches)), and Sango's due in approximately three months (watch her waddle! P). Ayame and Kagura are currently unknown... to you at least! Nah, they are both child free at the moment. Yura is still single- should I pair her up with anyone? And Kikyou- currently, she's still single as well- I'm not sure what I want to do with her near the end, yet, so... I'll have to really map the rest out before I decide yes or no on her hooking up with someone. But, if anyone has a hook-up suggestion for her, I'm open for it!

Alright, that's all. Please, review! And have a great day!

Ja ne!
