I do not own…
Five months later…
In the bathroom Kagome was pacing back and forth till she heard the beeping noise. She looked at the little device and gasped a little. After reading what the box said a small smile appeared on her face with happiness. But after what had happened last winter fear overcame her. Seeing that it's happening again in winter she worried that history would repeat itself. A knock at the door was able to break her out of her trance.
"Mama, can you help me with my shoelace, they got tangled again." Leo said on the other side of the door.
"I'll be right out sweetie." Kagome said as she quickly hid the pregnancy test.
She washed her hands and her face to wash away her tears. After drying herself up she placed a smile on her face as she went out of the bathroom. She picked him up and sat on the bed as she took his right Nike boot.
"You tied them too much again didn't you?" She teased
"It's so they won't come loose." Leo shrugged
Kagome laughed and tried her best to get to get the knots out. Once she did she helped place the boot on and tied it on for him.
"All right, are you ready to go to see the movie?" She asked
"Yeah." He smiled
"Let's go." Kagome smiled
She helped him off the bed and they hurry downstairs. Then she helped placed his jacket on while he put on his beanie.
"Off to the movies already?" Hannibal asked
"Yeah, and we need to hurry so we could get good seats." Kagome said
"And so you won't have to deal with Jack being here." Hannibal added
It was true. Since Will's trial was near Jack wanted to talk to Hannibal about it and Kagome still held the grudge against the man.
"You know my reasons Hannibal. I can't be around him." Kagome sighed as she placed her coat on.
"I understand my dear." He said as he pulled her in his arm and kissed her head.
He took a light sniff of her scent and noticed that there was something different about it.
"I will be making Mukozuke as the main course tonight do you want me to save you some?" He asked
"No, Leo and I will get something at the mall." Kagome said
She playfully smiled at him when she saw the annoyed look on his face. He didn't like it when she and Leo eat junk food.
"He's a kid Hannibal. Let him enjoy the fast food world while he can." She said as she wrapped her arms around his neck and pecked his lips.
"They are not healthy for either of you." He scowled
"Live a little." She smiled before kissing him again and let go. "We'll be back in two or three hours."
She grabbed her purse and keys before taking Leo's hand and headed out the door. Hannibal watched them as they got into her car and drove out of the lot. A smiled appeared on his face as he knew what the new scent was but just like Kagome he was worried as well. It's been a year now but they still watch everything around them in case Michael tries anything.
Once the meal was finished Jack had just arrived. Hannibal showed him to the table and went to get the food.
"This course is called Mukozuke. Seasonal sashimi, sea urchin, water clam, and squid." Hannibal explained as he placed the dish on the table.
"What a beautiful presentation, Doctor." Jack said
"Kaiseki. A Japanese art form that honors the taste and aesthetic of what we eat." Hannibal said as went to get the wine.
"I almost feel guilty about eating it." Jack joked
"I never feel guilty eating anything." Hannibal said as he poured wine in Jacks glass.
"I see that Kagome and Leo won't be joining us again." Jack said as he picked up his chopsticks.
"It's their annual mother and son movie night. That Star Wars movie that he likes is out and he's been begging one of us to take him to see it." Hannibal said
"And she chose today so she wouldn't see me." Jack stated
"You would rather have her here scowling you?" Hannibal asked "She still blames you for pushing Will to the edge."
Jack nodded and took a bite of the seafood.
"I can't quite place the fish." Jack said
"He was a flounder." Hannibal said and finally sat down after pouring himself some wine. "I last prepared this meal for my aunt, Murasaki. Under similarly unfortunate circumstances."
"Well, what circumstances were those?" Jack asked
"A loss." Hannibal stated "This is a loss. Will is a loss and we're mourning a death."
"Will's death is on me, not you." Jack said
"It's on both of us." Hannibal said
"I can't stop thinking that Will may be convicted of five murders while I am only maybe convicted of one." Jack said
"But you're not on trial." Hannibal said
"I will be. In the halls of the FBI. And so will you." Jack stated "I mean, according to Will Graham this was all you. I'm a little surprise that Kagome isn't going."
"Her brother Sesshomaru was able to get her out of it. With her ex's and what has happened to Will people will think that she has a thing for serial killers when it's the other way around." Hannibal said "Its' for hers and Leo's protection. As for Will he was your bloodhound. You can't ignore where he points."
"I'm not ignoring it." Jack said
"You have to investigate me. It's in my best interest and yours." Hannibal said
"Yes, it is." Jack agreed "But I can't ignored the fact that my bloodhound went mad before he pointed in your direction."
"We can't define Will only by his maddest edges." Hannibal said
"We can't define Will at all." Jack stated

When the movie was over Kagome and Leo got something to eat before walking around the mall. They walked into the Disney store and Leo walked over to the stuff toy section and grabbed the baby lion Nala from 'The Lion King.'
"Can we get this for my baby sister?" He asked
This surprise Kagome for only a second as she should have known. His powers have been improving each day. She kneels down and smiled at him.
"So it's going to be a girl huh." She smiled
"Sorry, was I not supposed to say?" He asked
"No its okay, sweetie. I'm happy to know." She smiled as she placed a hand on her stomach.
"Don't worry mama, I'll make sure dad won't do anything to my baby sister." He said "I won't let him hurt you again."
Kagome smiled at him with teary eyes and pulled him in a hug.
When they arrived home Leo had already fell asleep in the car ride home so she carried him inside. After announcing that they were home she took Leo to his room and put him to bed. Remy quickly went upstairs with them when they returned home and lay next to his little master. Kagome kissed both their heads goodnight and went to the master bedroom to change. When she entered the room she saw that Hannibal was getting ready for bed himself.
"How was the movie?" He asked
She walked over to him and kissed his cheek before heading towards her side of the dresser.
"Long and enjoyable. I'm more surprised that he stayed still during the whole movie. He only does when you're there." She said "He enjoyed the part when he saw Darth Vader fight scene. Though one of the actors looked just like you, except he was a good guy." She stopped at the bathroom door and looked at him with a teasing looking. "Is there something that you forgot to tell me."
He looked at her with smirked and chuckled a little. When she went into the bathroom he saw the bag that she placed on the bed and noticed a stuff lion in it.
"Another toy for Leo?" He asked
As she was changing she paused for a moment when he asked that. She thought now was the time to tell him.
"Not really. He picked it out for someone." She said before placing her robe over her nightgown.
"For whom?" He asked
She took a deep breath and came out of the bathroom while holding the pregnancy test.
"His new baby sister." She said
Her words made him froze a little before he stood from the bed. Yes he knew that she was pregnant but hearing that they were going to have a baby girl filled his heart with warmth. Seeing that he hasn't said anything made her worried.
"I know it wasn't planned but…" She said but was cut off when he captured her lips with his.
"You have no idea how happy I am about this." He smiled down at her.
She smiled back him till she started to cry.
"What's wrong?" He asked
"I'm just worried. After what happened last year…I'm afraid. I'm afraid that he'll try to hurt this one." She cried "I can't go through another miscarriage…I just can't."
Hannibal brought her in a hug and held her tight.
"I won't let him hurt either of you, I promise." He whispered "Trust me I will do everything in my power to protect you all."

The next day Kagome and Leo had taken Remy for a walk with the rest of Will's pack. For the last year Sesshomaru has been caring for them and Kagome and Leo will always visits them. Winston always gets happy when he sees Leo but get jealous when he sees Remy. The two dogs always seem competed for Leo's attention. After walking for a while in the park Kagome notice that Winston has ran off again and it's always to the same place, Will's house. They found him sitting by the house waiting for Will to be home.
"Hey there buddy." Kagome said as she sat down next to him on the porch.
She scratched his head and smiled at him.
"I know, boy, we miss him too." She smiled
Seeing how late it was getting she put on his leash and took him back to Sesshomaru house.
"Mama, can we see Will tomorrow?" Leo asked
"Well I have to see if we can get an appointment first, then we'll see." Kagome said
Just like she had promised she made a call when they arrived home and they were able to see him. When tomorrow came she got Leo ready and headed to the Baltimore Hospital for the criminally insane. They enter inside and she had stopped herself from rolling her eyes when she saw Fredrick by the stairs to greet them.
"Kagome Higurashi, it's good to see you again. And little Leonardo." Frederick said
"It's Leo." Leo glared
"Of course. Here to see Will Graham again I see." Frederick said
"You already know this Dr. Chilton there is no need for stalling us." Kagome said in annoyance. "And you better not be recording us on our conversations or I swear you'll be looking at a big law suit that will ruin your career for the rest of your life."
It may have sounded sweet but her words had a lot of venom with the truth. Frederick heard it and tensed a little at her words. He simply nodded at her with a small smile and let them passed.
"I think he just pee his pants mama." Leo whispered and laughed a little.
Kagome smirked at him and they headed to the waiting room where Will is waiting for them. Leo wanted to hug him but was told that he can't from the orderly. Kagome didn't like him at all as she could sense the darkness inside him.
"Hi, Will." Leo said
"Hey buddy. Kagome. It's nice seeing you guys again." Will smiled "How's everything going?"
"Well, Leo won first place in the creative writing contest at his school." Kagome smiled as they sat down from across him. "He did it all by himself with no help."
"Really now." Will said
"I brought it in to show it to you. Do you want to hear it?" Leo asked
"I would love to hear it." Will said
Leo got his backpack and took out the book he wrote.
"It's called 'Light Claimed by Darkness.'" He said
Will looked at Kagome with a smile and a raised brow. Kagome just mouthed 'Just go with it.'
"Good title sounds interesting." Will said
Leo smiled and started to read. 'A long time ago there was a prince that was a dark sorcerer. He was obsessed with the most beautiful maiden in the land and wanted her all to himself. He cast dark magic in a death like sleep to those that dared threaten the maiden or tries to marry her. The death spell on the villagers caught the attention of other kingdoms so the greatest knights had been sent to investigate the deaths. There was one knight that was the greatest of them all. His name is Sir William and he was known as "The Bloodhound" to his fellow knights.'
Will smiled a little as he listens to the story. Leo even showed him the drawling's he drew in the story. He noticed that the Leos' art skills were better than last year.
'When Sir William came to the village he saw the beautiful maiden. The knight and the beautiful maiden had fallen in love with each other. The Dark Prince saw this and was furious. So he casted another kind of spell on the knight and kidnapped maiden. This only made him see nothing but darkness and light inside other people soul. Sir William didn't care as he swore that he'll find his true love no matter what. Years' has passed and the knight had finally found the beautiful maiden as her light was bright and beautiful just like her soul. With the help of his fellow knights they were able to capture the Dark Prince and placed him in an enchanted cage where he can never escape. Once the Dark Prince was locked up the spell on the knight was lifted and he could finally see his true love. He made a vow to the maiden that he would never let anything happen to her again and they rode off to his land.
They were to live happily but unknown to them that another dark lord has looked upon the beautiful maiden and wanted her as his.
The End...for now.'

A/N: I hoped you guys don't mind this one. Just letting people know that Will and Kagome are still good friends but he's still in love with her. Also she doesn't know that Hannibal set up Will in the first place.
