Animechick98- Thanks so much! I'm glad you like it. I think Kurama is a great father figure as well.

Lestatsgirl15- We'll see! ;]

Izzymay31- Haha you might just get your wish!

Okay you guys, I'm using my birth experience for this chapter! Except I went into labor at 41 weeks, not 37.

I laid in the bed, eyes squinted in pain, and gasped for air.

"It hurts so bad!" I cried.

"It's okay, deep breaths, keep breathing," Kurama said.

I felt him tighten his grip on my hand the same time as another hand grabbed mine. I looked over to see Hiei looking worried.

"Don't be so worried, I'll be-"

I cut off and let out a low moan.

"Why don't you just get the pain medicine?" Hiei asked.

"No, I want to try this natural," I replied.

"You've tried, now you're in tears because it hurts, just get the damn medicine," he snapped.

I glared at him but stopped as another contraction hit.

"How's it going Kisa?" Dr. Sakai asked.

I groaned and he smiled.

"I see your contractions are consistent but they're not increasing, and the baby's heart rate is decelerating with the contractions," he said.

I gasped and sat up forward.

"What? What does that mean?"

"If her heart rate keeps decelerating, we will have to do a c-section. Would you like time to think or-"

"Whatever is safest for my baby I will do," I said.

He nodded.

"We will get the surgery room prepped then and be in to give you your epidural soon," he said.

I felt fear paralyze me and stared at Kurama.

"I have to be cut open," I murmured.

"Remember, it's for Akira," he whispered.

I felt tears come to my eyes and another contraction hit.

"Ugh! Damn these contractions!" I snapped.

I squeezed both of their hands and waited for it to pass. Finally the anesthesiologist came in and Kurama and Hiei were forced to leave. I took a deep breath and waited for the needle. It hurt but not as bad as the contractions. After A while, I was rolled into a white room and Hiei willingly stayed out, choosing to let Kurama come in. I guess he wasn't comfortable with this. Not that Kurama looked any more comfortable. We made small talk until the doctors were ready. Laying on the table with the paper in front of me felt really scary. I was one to have to see what's being done to me usually, and now I couldn't. I sighed and they touched me with a cold object.

"Can you feel that?"

"Yes," I replied.

They upped my medicine and tried again. I could barely feel it so I said no. Then they started cutting. I whimpered at the slight sharp pain and looked over at Kurama.

"Are you okay?" he asked.

I nodded and he smiled.

"Just think, she'll be here soon," he said.

I gave a painful smile but it was wiped out by a cry of pain as they started pulling. Oh god! It felt like they were ripping my insides out. I squeezed Kurama's hand and whined.

"It hurts," I murmured.

"You'll be okay," the anesthesiologist said.

I shook my head and felt vomit rising in my throat from pain. I ended up puking in the air mask and they had to suck out my nose and mouth. All the while I wanted to scream because it was so painful. They pumped me full of an anesthetic called Ketamine. Soon I was seeing voices in colors and everything was distant. I felt like I was in another world, and yet in the background it was still painful. I could relax now though. I tried to open my eyes and barely managed to right as I heard a cry.

"A baby girl, 8 pounds 13 ounces!" I heard.

They stuck her quickly in front of my face and I barely saw her face before my eyes shut again and I was out.

I woke up and saw Kurama and Hiei in the corner. It hurt to move and my stomach felt like I had been through hell.

"H-Hiei Kura-ma," I managed.

They jerked around and I saw a single tear on Kurama's face. In his arms was a little bundle. They walked over and sat on each side of me.

"Akira, meet your mother Kisa," Kurama whispered. He handed her over and as I took in her beautiful little face and red hair, tears overflowed from my eyes. She was perfect. I let out a soft sob and kissed her forehead. Her nose was small and round, while her lips were puffy and her face was very round. She had chubby cheeks and a slightly yellow complexion. I questioned this to Kurama.

"She has slight Jaundice," he said, "Lots of sun and feeding should help."

I nodded and smiled through my tears.

"She's beautiful, isn't she?" Kurama asked.

"Perfect," I replied.

I reached out to Hiei with my free hand and grabbed his that was lying on the bed. He rubbed my knuckles and kissed them. I gave him a surprised look but he said nothing, stone faced as usual.

"Even Hiei is happy to see her," Kurama teased.

I grinned and looked back down at the bundle of joy in my arms. Slowly her eyes opened. They were golden-hazel like mine. Then the crying started.

"Can I feed her?" I asked.

Kurama shrugged and I pulled my shirt down, painfully adjusting my position. I managed to free my breast and latched her on. Instantly her eyes shut and she began eating.

"Hello Kisa, oh, I see you're feeding," one of the nurses said with a smile.

I nodded.

"Good, we encourage breast-feeding but if you ever need a break, we have bottle of formula available," she said, "Now, are you comfortable? Do you need anything?"

"I'm fine, thank you," I replied.

Frankly, I just wanted to be with my little family right now. She smiled and left, leaving us to ourselves, and me to my new love.

THE END!... FOR NOW! =3
