The Death of Kouga

Secrets Revealed

Hojo looked down at the little baby in the stroller the was soundlessly alseep. "Um, hi Kagome. Nice to finally see you again." "Yea...Oh. Hojo, this is Shippo and this is Kouga." They shook hands and said hello. "You haven't been to school in a while and I bought you something to make you feel better, but I left it at the house." Kouga started growling and Kagome knew why. "You want to come over and get it?" "Um...sure. Why not?" They followed Hojo to his house. "What's up with him, huh Kagome?" "Just shut up." "Why do I have to shut up? You got some explaining to do when we're done with him." "Can you just calm down?" "Whatever." He still continued to growl while following Hojo. "Well, here we are." "Wow." Shippo looked around his house looking at the new things that he never seen at Kagome's house. Kagome sat on the couch and held Kaouga. Hojo sat beside her, gulped and smiled. "I see you have a lovely baby Kagome. Congratulations." Kouga quickly sat on the other side of Kagome and glared at Hojo. "And she's pregnant with my other baby now." "Oh...well...congratulations. Um..can I hold her?" "Yeah."

Kagome handed Kaouga to Hojo and he smiled. "She's very pretty. I see where she gets most of her looks from." Kouga felt a slap in the face and had this evil look on his face. Is he trying to call me ugly? Kaouga started crying from the unusual face. He quickly handed Kaouga back to Kagome. "I'm sorry." "It's ok. She's just not used to you yet." "Oh...well, what's her name?" "Kaouga." "That's pretty." Kouga jumped in the conversation yet again. "Thank you very much. I gave her the name." "Oh." Clearly Hojo was intimidated by Kouga and when into the kitchen to get some water. Shippo stopped looking at all the stuff and sat down on Kagome's lap. Hojo came back in the living room and sighed. "What's wrong Hojo?" "Oh nothing. I'll go get your stuff and I'll get you something else for Kaouga and the new baby." "Thanks." He went upstairs to get it.

Right when Hojo went upstairs, Kagome punched Kouga in his arm. "Ow. What the hell was that for?" "For being so rude to Hojo. There's nothing going on if you must know so calm down." He growled and looked the other way. Kagome kissed his soft pink lips and smiled. "Just relax, please." He smiled. "Ok." He kissed her back and chilled out. She did it again. Making do whatever she wanted me to with a single kiss. Hojo came back downstairs with a box nicely wrapped with a bow on top. "Here. I hope this'll help." "Thanks. We'll be on our way Hojo. I'm going to come back later on." "Ok, bye." "Bye." They all got up and left the house. Hojo sighed and closed the door. How could she do that to me?

Shippo was walking ahead of Kagome and Kouga with his hands on the back of his head. "Now where are we going?" "We're going to my friends house." "Is it another man friend of yours?" "No. Actually it's a very close friend of mine that happens to be a girl." "Hmm." "What's up with you Kouga? Your so evil today." "I don't like that Hojo boy. I smelled something weird about him. It wasn't normal." "Oh. Well just to let you, he means no harm." "Ok."

They went to Yuka's house and she looked drowsy. But when she seen Kagome, she got really happy. "Oh my god! Kagome!" She hugged her tight and smiled. "I haven't seen you in so long. Come in." They all walked in and when Shippo and Kouga walked in, she got an akward look on her face. "Um...Kagome...what's up with the tail thing?" "Oh. This is kind of long, so you'll have to sit and listen." "Ok." She sat down in a chair and Kagome sat beside her. She told her the whole story about where they're from and the well and Inu-yasha. "Ooo. I get it now. Makes perfect sense." "So I'm guessing this is your baby." "Yea." "Look at the pretty baby. You so pretty. Yes you are." She wiggled her finger in front of Kaouga and she grabbed it. "She sure has a strong grip." "Yeah." "What's her name?" "Kaouga." "Such a pretty name for such a pretty baby."

"So how have you been Yuka?" "Oh, I've been doing great. My grades are getting nice with Arimi's help." "Are they home?" "No, I called them earlier today. They said they were going to go study and after that go somewhere to eat. I decided to rest for a while." "Oh." "So you've been in that well all this time?" "Yea." "And so this is the man you fell for? He's something worth being with if you ask me." Kagome smiled. "Yeah. That's him." Yuka looked Kouga over and gave him her approval. "So that's where Kaouga got the little dog ears from?" "Yup." "You met up with Hojo yet?" "Yea. He gavem something, but I didn't open it yet." "Oh. Well he's been worried sick about you. Every day, he's asking where is Kagome and is she alright. It gets pretty tiring, but he cares." Kouga started growling and Yuka giggled. "Calm down. He's just worried." "Well he better be worried about getting the life beat out of him if he messes with my Kagome." "Kouga, what did I tell you. Calm down." "No I'm not going to calm down. He's trying to mess with Kagome and I'm not going to have it." Kagome got furious. "Shut up Kouga. Your acting like Inu-yasha right now. Just sit down and shut up." He growled and walked outside. "There's no way I act like that mutt. NO WAY!"

She sighed. "Don't mind him. He's been a little off after we went to Hojo's." "Well, did anything big happen?" "Not really. He was just being Hojo...the Hojo that's sad and depressed." Yuka sat beside Kagome and noticed her stomach was bigger than it usually was. "Aww, I see a little baby bump." She smiled. "It's his right?" "Yeah." "That's nice. So you know what your having?" "No, but I got a good feeling that I'm having twins this time. I feel bigger than last time." "Are you having a baby shower?" "Yup. My mom told me she'll plan it." "Let me know when is it. I'll be there." Shippo climbed on the couch and laid his head on Kagome's arm. "And who is the little man right there?" "I'm Shippo." "Hey Shippo. Are you Kagome's other son?" "No, but I do call her Mommy." "You must love her a lot huh?" "Yea." "Well, let me go. I told Hojo I'll be there later on." "Make sure nothing happens." "What's going to happen if I'm pregnant Yuka?" "Oh yea." "And I thought I was the slow one." Yuka punched Kagome in her arm and they left. Kouga was on the porch still growling and grumbling.

"Kouga come on." He got up and they walked home. "Mommy, I thought we were going to...yawn...go to Hojo's house." "We are. But I'm leaving you and Kaouga here." Shippo took off his clothes, left his boxers and his t-shirt on, and flopped on the couch. He soon fell asleep. Kagome took Kaouga upstairs and put her in her crib. She went back downstairs and hugged Kouga. He hugged her back. "What's going on?" "Nothing. I just wanted to hug you." He lifted up her face and kissed her lips. "I love you Kagome." "I love you too. Come on. We got to go to Hojo's." He sighed. "Ok." They kissed one more time and then left again.

In about 10 minutes, they were at Hojo's again for the day. Kouga was a little calmer than earlier. "You two want anything to drink?" "I'd like some lemon-aid." "I don't want anything." Hojo went in the kitchen and got two glasses of lemon-aid. "Here." "Thanks." She drunk the lemon-aid and exhaled. "That was nice." When Hojo was done drinking his lemon-aid, he grabbed Kagome's hand. "Um, can you come with me for a minute? Excuse us." They both got up and walked upstairs to Hojo's room, leaving Kouga in the living room.

Hojo sat on his bed and gave Kagome a sad look. "Kagome, how could you?" "How could I what Hojo?" "How could you leave me for him after all we've been through? How could you have his baby when you were pregnant with mines last year?" All the memories of Hojo and the upcoming baby filled her head. "Hojo, I couldn't have the baby last year. I just couldn't." "Why not Kagome? How come you were able to have a baby y a different man a year later? Did you truly love me Kagome? Did you?" "Hojo, I couldn't afford a baby last year. My mother couldn't help me either. I just couldn't take care of a baby." "It was our baby Kagome. Our baby. I could've and would've helped you and the baby with anything. I told you that. I told you that I would be there for you two. Why couldn't you believe me?"

She slowly started crying. "Hojo, I...I...I don't know anymore. I was going to have the baby. I really was. But then reality hit me hard. One person can't take care of a baby that two people created. We were going to have to pay for a lot if we had that baby. And what if we had twins?" "You basically have twins now. Your baby is not even one yet and your pregnant with another. Now who knows if you'll have twins this time?" She didn't speak. She couldn't speak. He was right. "I...I...I still don't know Hojo." "Exactly." Kagome fell to the floor and kept on crying. "I'm sorry Hojo. I really am. I wanted to have the baby, but I was scared. Scared that I couldn't do anything for him or her. So after tell ing you I was going to have the baby, I went and got an abortion. I lied and told you I miscarried. I'm so sorry Hojo."

Hojo eyes went wide and he stared at Kagome. "You...you lied Kagome?" His eyes were watering up now. "Why would you lie Kagome? If you told me the real reason back then, I wouldn't be so upset. But it took you one year to gather up the courage to tell me that you lied? Kagome, I loved you, always have. I would've accepted the fact if you would've told me, but Kagome...you don't know how much this hurts." He got off his bed and sat down in front of Kagome, who was still crying. "Kagome..." He lifted up her face and looked dead into her eyes. "As much as this hurts me, to finally find out the truth, I still love. No matter what." He leaned in and kissed Kagome's lips.

Right when he kissed her, Kouga came in. "What the hell!"
