CHAPTER 12:
A few days later:
Moriko walked over to Sango and asked, "How is he doing?"
She replied "I can't believe it! He seems to actually be getting better!"
Moriko smiled and said, "That's good."
Miroku moaned and opened his eyes. Sango saw this and said, "Miroku... oh Miroku I was so worried about you."
He replied, "Sango... do not worry Sango, I will not leave you alone."
He looked at his hand, gasped, and said, "I can't believe it! It's gone... he really is dead!!" Sango started laughing and hugging him tightly.
Inuyasha and the others all came over to the cave entrance, and Miroku sat up and showed them his hand. Miroku said, "Finally he is defeated and the curse is broken!"
Everyone started cheering. Everyone stayed there a few more days and then decided to travel to Kaede's village to let Inuyasha tell her the news.
--
At Kaede's village:
Inuyasha had taken Kaede aside and the two of them are talking alone.
Inuyasha said, "Kaede... it's true Naraku has FINALLY been defeated. But... Kikyo... she... she didn't make it."
Kaede replied, "I see... tell me Inuyasha... did she get to see his end?"
Inuyasha answered, "Yes Kaede, she saw and even helped bring it about."
Kaede said, "Thank ye Inuyasha... It is a great comfort knowing that. One more thing Inuyasha... did Kikyo... was she ...did she die..."
Inuyasha looked right in Kaede's eyes and said, "She died in my arms Kaede... and she... she said she died at peace..."
Kaede looked at him and said, "Thank ye Inuyasha." Then she walked off into her hut, and Inuyasha walked back over to the others.
Inuyasha put his arms around Kagome, pulled her close to him and leaned his head on top of hers.
"What are we going to do now?" asked Kagome.
"I know one thing for sure." says Miroku and he looked at Sango and said, "We must find Kohaku!"
Sango looked at him with tears in her eyes and everyone yelled, "AGREED!" Sango looked at the others and said, "Thank you everyone." Then she buried her head on Miroku's chest and cried.
Kagome announced, "But there is still one more thing I must do first... I have to go back home and tell my family I am staying here."
Inuyasha looked at her and said, "Kagome... are you sure Kagome?"
She looked at him, smiled, and said, "Yes Inuyasha, I am sure. I want to stay with you! If you will let me..."
Then she looked down, he put his finger under her chin, lifted her head and looked into her eyes and said "Kagome... Of course I want you with me ALWAYS!" Then he lowered his head and kissed her like there was no tomorrow. Kagome sighed, leaned into the kiss; he growled and started kissing her possessively.
Koga had his arms around his mate's waist from behind, holding her very gently, kissing the top of her head. She sighed and leaned into him feeling cherished, safe, and very happy.
Kagome and Inuyasha broke the kiss and caught their breaths.
Kagome said, "I will only be gone a couple of days, ok Sango?"
Moriko cut in, "You mean WE Kags, I am going with you!"
She turned around, looked at Koga and said, "Don't worry my love! I promise to come back! But I must go this once to tell my gramps and Aunt that I am staying here with you! I am happy and not to worry. Please understand Koga... just this once I have to go."
Koga looked at her a little concerned.
Inuyasha spoke up and said, "Why don't you go with her this once Koga."
They looked at him and asked, "Is that really possible?"
He answered, "Sure, I can travel through, so why not him too?"
Moriko stared at him and Kagome said, "Inuyasha is right Mori, It will work!"
Moriko looked at Koga and asked, "Well Koga, what do you say? Will you come with me this once?"
Koga looked at Kagome and Inuyasha and said, "Are you sure it will work?"
Kagome replied, "I am positive!"
Koga looked at his mate and said, "Of course I am coming with you! I WON'T leave my mate unprotected!"
Inuyasha announced he was going with Kagome as well.
They agreed and told Sango and Miroku that the four of them would be back in two days. Then the four of them went to the well.
Kagome and Inuyasha told Moriko and Koga to jump in first, so he held her bridal style and jumped in. They ended up back at Kagome's home.
Then Kagome and Inuyasha jumped in and climbed through and ended up in her time.
--
The two happy couples walked out together and Kagome's Brother Souta ran up yelling, "Kagome, Inuyasha! I can't believe your here!"
Moriko looked at him and said, "Hey Souta! So what am I, chopped liver?"
Souta said, "Hi Mori, sorry I didn't see you." Then he looked at Koga, pointed at him and said, "Hey who is he?"
Just then Kagome's mom and gramps ran up to us and gramps looked at them funny.
Kagome's mom said, "Kagome dear, I am glad your back! Inuyasha, nice to see you again." Then she looked at Moriko and said "Mori, I was wondering where you have been." Then she looked at Koga and asked who he was.
Moriko smiled, held Koga's hand and said, "This is Koga. He is my husband!"
Kagome proceeded to tell them everything that had happened from the beginning of Moriko falling through the well, Koga and Moriko marrying, and everyone working together to defeat Naraku.
Afterwards Kagome's mom looked at Koga, walked over to him, hugged him and said, "Well Koga. Welcome to the family." and she smiled at him.
He smiled back at her and said, "Thanks. I give you all my word. I will take care of Mori!"
Gramps walked over, looked at Koga and said, "I hope so my boy. Can't say I am too happy about it, never would have expected her to marry a demon. BUT I Can see you've made her very happy! Welcome to the family Koga."
Koga said, "Thanks."
Moriko wrapped her arms around his waist and announced that she was going to be staying In Koga's era, and Kagome's mom said, " At least come back and visit us once in a while, and make sure you bring Koga with you!"
Moriko smiled and Koga her agreed to visit here and there.
Kagome's mom announced we should all go in for dinner and we went inside and ate.
--
At the dinner table after everyone had eaten, Kagome announced that she was going to be staying with Inuyasha in his era as well.
Kagome's mom looked at her and asked, "Are you sure Kagome? Is this truly what will make you happy?"
Kagome looked at her and said, "Yes mom! I am certain!"
Kagome's mom slowly nodded her head and said, "Promise me you and Inuyasha will visit us as often as you can. I expected this sooner or later Kagome dear." Kagome and Inuyasha promised to visit as well.
Everybody stood up and suddenly there was someone banging angrily and loudly on the door.
"I wonder who that could be?" asked Kagome's mom as she got up frowning and went to answer the door.
--
Meanwhile back in the feudal era:
Miroku, Sango, and Shippo were sitting together at the campsite and Miroku finished recovering, and Ginta, Hakaku and the wolves were not very far away waiting for Koga and Moriko to return.
--
With Ginta and Hakaku and the wolves:
"I wonder how Koga and Moriko are doing?" asked Hakaku.
"I hope they are ok." replied Ginta.
"I wonder if we will continue traveling with Inuyasha and his friends when they get back?" asked Hakaku.
"Or if we will go back to the den?" added Ginta. Then they turned back to watch the sky, and the wolves.
--
With Miroku and Sango and Shippo:
"I sure do miss Kagome! I hope they come back soon!" said Shippo.
"Relax Shippo, it's only been one day so far," said Sango.
"And Kagome said they would be gone for two." added Miroku.
"I know I just really miss them!" whined Shippo.
"We all do." soothed Sango.
