Chapter 36

He knew his father was going to be there any minute but he just couldn't help it, he had made so many friends and had found that he had cousins here. Of course he knew he was related to some of the fox demons that had also gone to the camp because he could smell it. He had told them what had happened to his parents and had told them about his new mother and father. He wasn't sure how the older fox demons had taken it and knew that one of his elder cousins said that he would ask his parents to do something about it since he should be with his own kind. Which was why he was not waiting for his father and his aunt and uncle where they had planned to pick him up. He was currently sitting down in the office waiting for the head of the camp and his cousin's parents. He had no idea what was going on but he had a feeling that it was something that was bound to thrown him into chaos.

He wanted to leave already, to get the hell out of there and to go and tell everything he had learned and everyone he had met to his mother. Just as he was about to run out and try to find his father, the young fox kit froze when he heard his cousin say, "My parents are going to take you with us…you're related to us and the court will decide where you belong in a few months…until then you have to be with blood related relatives."

"I told you I was fine! I want my Otu and Oka!" the young kit roared in anger before turning his fox fair on his cousin so that he could get away.

"That is enough!" a deep growl was heard as his small attack was stopped by a much larger fox fire. "You will be coming with us and that is final."

"No!" he roared before running out of the small cabin and into the camp filled with kids his own age and older.

He ran as fast as he could and toward the area that his father would be waiting for him. Just as he had caught scent of his father, Shippo began to yell, growl and call for his father as he was lifted up and off of the ground. Just as he had been held tight enough to keep from screaming, Shippo began to whimper in fear as he realized that he wasn't strong enough to get back to his family. Just as he had heard the woman's voice say, "Now you will behave, I can only imagine what kind of people that 'adopted' you are if they allow you to run wild."

"You will be a respectable man and act a properly." The male voice added in.

But before he could say a word, the young fox kit couldn't help but tear up as he heard a familiar voice say, "I know you are not abusing my pup before me…get your fucking hands off of him."

"Otu." He whimpered.

"He is of my blood, the son of my brother will be looked after by me." The male growled out.

"Father wanted nothing to do with you! You were mean and tainted!" Shippo cried out only to be shaken by the women that held her.

"Big mistake." Inuyasha growled out.

"What makes you think that a hanyou like yourself can even dream of touching a full blooded demon like myself?" the woman challenged.

"Because he is not just any hanyou…" a woman's voice was heard before Shippo began to struggle all over again.

"And who are you human to think that you can but into demons matters?" the girl fox demon that held the young fox kit in place growled out in anger as she bared her fangs at the miko before her.

"Me? I am mate of Inuyasha Taisho, adoptive mother of Shippo Taisho and a pissed off bitch that is ready to kill if you don't let go of my pup." Kagome growled out in anger as her miko aura began to surround them all.

"Oka!" Shippo cried out in relief as he finally broke free from the woman.

"Go to your father." Kagome growled as she extended her hand and pulled her sword free.

"Feh, you're going to make them piss their pants." Inuyasha growled as he caught his crying pup.

"It would be less then what they deserve." Kagome growled as she took a step forward with a grin on her face before adding, "Good you know the sword I wiled, the sword that chose me…I will not warn you again…come near my pup and you will see firsthand just how well I can use this sword."

"Otu…when did Oka wake up?" Shippo asked his father as he held onto him.

"You have no right to claim him as your own when you haven't even filled the right forms are taken the right classes to take care of a demon child." The male fox demon was heard as he pulled his son to stand behind him and is mate at his side.

"Oh, if you make the right inquires I'm sure you will find that I have and I will not repeat myself after this day I will expect that you and your mate will have nothing to do with my son, your son on the other hand is more than welcomed to come and visit." Kagome growled out as she held her sword and turned to face her son.

"I want to see my cousin again…he's really nice." Shippo mumbled.

"Inuyasha?" Kagome whispered as she sheathed her sword and opened her arms up to her son.

"Feh, if you think can stand against my family then go ahead and try, my father will show no mercy if you touch his grandson again…we'll be leaving now…" Inuyasha growled as he turned and began to follow after his mate and pup.

They had enjoyed their trip; Kagome had become his mate the night they had been reunited. She bore his mark and his aura as well as her own. She kept her miko powers and still had full control over her powers, demon blood, and sword. She had the money that would keep them happy, pay for her sons schooling, all the way up to college, and she had a house for them to live in. Once they had reached the car, and once she had finished getting her son settled, Kagome turned to her mate and said, "Is everyone waiting for us?"

"Yes, my parents already know and so does your sister. They're waiting at my house for the party." Inuyasha answered with a grin on his face as he drove out of the camp grounds.

"Good, now Shippo, honey, did you have fun in camp?" Kagome answered with a smile on her face.

"I had fun and I made lots of friends! Oka I'm so happy your alright." Shippo cried as he held on to her.

"I told you I would be fine, now would you tell me everything?" Kagome soothed as she held him tight and in her arms.

They had all been waiting for a while, while Sesshomaru and Rin looked after their own pups and made sure that they stayed out of trouble, Kikiyo and Naraku stayed by each other's sides knowing that this was a day to be happy. They had even gone so far to invite Sango, Miroku, and Kohaku to their family gathering. TO Kikiyo Kohaku had grown to be like a brother and Sango had grown to be like a close cousin to her. Miroku of course was her cousin and soon he would marry and made Sango her true family. Just as she had finished leaning into her mates arms, Kikiyo slightly pulled away from him as Sango approached the two while saying, "Nice to see that you guys finally got what you wanted. How long?"

"Oh, um…three weeks." Kikiyo answered with a smile on her face.

"I take it you won't be starting in the fall?" Sango asked as she stood alongside Kikiyo.

"I'm not sure yet, I want to but Naraku is hell bent on keeping me at home." Kikiyo explained.

"I think you'd be fine…I'm sure you'd be more then safe." Kagome's amused filled voice was heard as she and Inuyasha walked into the room.

"Its about time." Sota and Kohaku were heard.

"we had some problems…Oka I'm going to need you to watch Shippo while Inuyasha and I go to court." Kagome was heard.

"Can't you two ever stay out of trouble?" Izayoi's tired voice was head.

"We could…but then it's not in us to do so." Kagome answered with a grin on her face.

"I would believe that." Sesshomaru growled.

"Well? Are you going to tell us what is going on now?" Rin's annoyed filled growl was heard.

"Oh, Shippo's uncle tried to take him from us…they said they'd take us to court." Kagome answered as she let go of her son so that he could go and play with Rin's children and with Sota and Kohaku.

"Nice…but since we have already released the real papers out to the public I'm sure there won't be much they could do." Inutaisho growled out.

"We can worry about that later, today is supposed to be a day to celebrate the day that our family is finally altogether and complete." Kim was heard as she hugged her daughter.

"Agreed…shall we go to the pool house to start this family get together?" Izayoi was heard.

"I believe so, I'm just going to go and get changed." Kagome was heard as she turned around to leave.

"Feh, don't take long wench." Inuyasha growled out as he followed after his family.

"So are we." Rin, Sango, and Kikiyo were heard.

"Kikiyo." Naraku growled.

"I'll be with my sister…I'm perfectly safe." Kikiyo hissed out in anger.

"Talk about possessive." Sango mumbled.

"No, you should have seen Sesshomaru when he found that I was with twins." Rin growled out.

Once they had reached the room, Kagome let out a long sigh and made a run for the bath room before she could say a word. With a grin on their faces, the three waited for Kagome to come back out before they even said a word. Before they could even say a word, Kagome let out a long sigh and said, "I guess Shippo is getting a brother."

"How do you know that it's a brother and not a sister?" Rin asked in a confused voice.

"Her sword…place, place tell me that I'm getting what I wanted." Kikiyo was heard as she took a seat on the bed.

"You are….and so is Naraku." Kagome answered with a grin on her face before turning to her best friend to add, "And you better make sure that boy of yours doesn't turn out as perverted as your boyfriend."

"What?" Sango asked in shock as she slowly lost her balance only to be caught by Rin.

"There you go…don't want you hurting yourself." Rin whispered as she slowly eased her into a chair.

When no one had said a word and when she was sure that she would have to be the one to break the silence, Rin let out a long sigh and said, "Well…seems like I'll have to give you girls some pointed out how to keep overprotective mates from over doing it and how to lie to them without having to say a lie."

"So it seems…please tell us that they are controllable?" Kikiyo mumbled before the four of them began to laugh out.

Although a part of her had wanted to wonder the world a bit longer and get the childhood that she had lost back the other part of her couldn't wait to give her son a brother. She was sure it was a boy but it didn't really didn't matter to her, she was going to have a baby and she was going to have a family…a real actual happy family, a family where everyone would be together without fighting, where everyone would be able to rely on one another knowing that they were all there for each other. After taking in a deep and calming breath, Kagome locked eyes with her sisters and with her friends before saying, "Well…let's get this over with…mind as well just tell them now so that we can set our ground rules."

"Been there done that…it won't work." Kikiyo hissed out in anger.

"Well…with three against three…and Rin on our side…I'm sure we'll be able to do it." Kagome answered with a grin on her face before leading her sister's and Sango out and toward the pool house where the rest of the family was sure to get a wild surprise.

A/N: Well there you have it, the real last chapter to this story. I'm since it was asked that I come up with a better ending I did my best and this is what I was able to come up with. Please let me know what you all think! I will be working on a new story, I was inspired by it while doing some research, anyway the following is the summary please let me know if you would be willing to read it since it would have to do with an original character or the first half of the story.

Summary: She stood proudly as she glared at her former lover, the father of her child. After letting a low growl, she took in a deep breath and asked, 'Why should I help you? You left me for the mortal that now stands before you. Give me one good reason.'

'I give you a son, a son you love no matter how much he reminds you of me…and if you wish to see him live you will help us.'

'How will helping you bare another hanyou child help my son?'

'You've seen the power of the sword I left my second son…you cannot say that he will live through that…help me give our son a reason to finally accept his brother.'

'Besides.' The woman stated in a soft voice before adding, 'this child will not only be ours but yours as well…we would need your help not only on making this happen but to carry the child as well.'

Well there you have it…I don't have a title at the moment. Please let me know what you think. REIVEW!
