Chapter: 5
The Coming Out!
Inuyasha carried Miroku on his back because Kagome and Sango got tired of dragging him. He didn't particularly care if he had to carry someone, but this time was different he wasn't carrying one of his friends who was hurt or was going to slow for him; he was carrying the mentally unbalanced.
" I wonder what's wrong with him, I hope he's okay." Kagome said staring at a passed out Miroku. Inuyasha looked at Kagome then at Sango then Miroku he then smiled slyly to himself. * I've got this one in the bag. * He ponders quietly to himself.
" I bet you 5 bowls Ramen that he asked some girl to bear his child and she excepted, He didn't know what to do so he slightly lost it." Sango laughed sarcastically.
" Yeah right! Well I bet and if I win I get to have you Inuyasha as my slave for as long as I want." His eyes became hug as he blushed a little in the checks.
" Wha- why would you bet for something like that?" Sango smiled devilishly.
" Well it sounds like a good idea. Then I could have you do whatever I want, besides it's hard enough to get you to do things as it is this would only help our situation." Inuyasha let out a sigh.
" Fine whatever, so what do think is wrong with him anyway?" she smiled grasping Hiraikotsu tightly in her hand.
" I bet I hit him one too many times and knocked something loose." Inuyasha nodded, turned, and looked at Kagome and so did Sango. They were both eagerly awaiting her bet. Kagome blushed a little.
" Well I don't know if we should be betting on our friends health but, I think I will have to go with Inuyasha." Inuyasha grinned at his victory and Sango's face fell.
" Kagome!" Sango wined.
" I'm sorry Sango but I think Inuyasha's right his answer seems logical, besides you've hit Miroku a million times before and it never did anything to him." Kagome informed her simply. She then saw the big victory grin on Inuyasha's face.
" On the other hand Sango could be right and owning you would be kind of fun so I'm switching my vote to Sango." Inuyasha's face steamed with anger.
" Hey you can't change your vote it's not allowed." Kagome smiled at him.
" But I never said I was going to go with your bet." Before Inuyasha could answer back, Miroku woke up.
" Hey where am I?" He then noticed that Inuyasha was carrying him on his back, which he then remembered Inuyasha coming up behind him, and knocking him out with Tetsuiaga.
" Hey why did you guys knock me out you know that really bad for the... I mean my health." They all just ignored his mental ramblings.
" Hey Inuyasha put me down right now." He tried to squirm off of Inuyasha. Inuyasha turned to look at the monk on his back with an evil grin; he clenched his fist tightly the proceeded to punch it right into Miroku's face knocking him out once more. Kagome gasped.
" Gosh! Inuyasha did you have to hit him that hard, I mean what if Sango was right and you just made thing's worse." Inuyasha smiled.
" What if I fixed it?" Sango and Kagome sighed irritatingly.
" Lets just go back to Keade's." Kagome ordered and Sango nodded. Inuyasha growled at them both as they walked ahead of him.
" Feh!" was all he said as he followed them.
Finally they reached Keade's; Inuyasha walked into her hut with Miroku in his arms. Sango and Kagome followed closely behind him. When they were in, they saw Keade sitting down making medicines. Inuyasha dropped Miroku's body in front of her.
" I think the monks broken." Keade looked up at him as if he were insane himself. Kagome stepped in to help him out.
" There's something wrong with him, he hasn't been acting like himself lately. We were hoping you could tell us what's wrong with him." Sango stayed quiet as Inuyasha jumped in again with his dull sarcasm.
" Yeah and if he's crazy were going to lock him up forever." Kagome was about to answer him back with a smart mouth comment but stopped as Shippo came into the room.
" Kagome! I was looking all over for you... I was so scared." Kagome embraced the little kitsune.
" It's okay Shippo I'm here. I would never leave you forever it's just that..." Shippo cut her off as he had saw Miroku knocked out on the ground.
" What happened to him?" Kagome was going to answer but Inuyasha decided to step in.
" He's broken!" Keade then smiled as she cut in on there conversation.
"Aye! Miroku is with child." They all looked at each other then at Miroku then back at Keade.
" What?" they all yelled in unison. Shippo ran up to Miroku and began poking at his stomach.
" How are you pregnant?" Shippo said suspiciously. In that instant of Shippo poking at him, he woke up.
" How did you know I was pregnant?" Miroku said curiously, startling the poor kitsune a bit. Miroku looked up at Keade who was smiling at him.
" Yeah how the hell could you know that, all you did was stare at him?" Keade's smile grew a little bigger.
"Aye knows ye thing's like this." Inuyasha growled at her.
" Feh, you don't know anything women." Kagome was about to yell at him when Miroku began to talk.
" No Inuyasha it is indeed true." Inuyasha looked at Miroku dumbfounded and then he began to laugh.
"Ha! Then that mean's I win the bet." Miroku became a bit dumbfounded himself when he heard what Inuyasha had said.
" Bet! What Bet?" Sango rushed in on the conversion.
" What? You don't win, you didn't guess right." Inuyasha growled at her fiercely.
" I win because my guess was the closest one to the truth, you can't possibly think that because you hit him over the head he became pregnant." Kagome smiled innocently.
" I guess that means we both win." Inuyasha and Sango glared at her.
" Hey you changed your bet with me for Sango's!" Sango nodded agreeing with him. Kagome then glared evilly at him.
" Well you didn't win either, because your bet didn't even come close to the truth. How is him finding a women who actually wants to bear his child get him pregnant instead." Sango stared at Inuyasha.
" Yeah so how do you win?" Sango asked.
" Because it's closest!" Kagome then looked over at Keade for her opinion and answer on the problem.
" Aye thinks ye would be right? It is said that the closet one wins." Inuyasha was just about to come back at her with a cocky answer for disagreeing with him but stopped as his face was at a loss for words.
" Wait a minute! Did you just agree with me?" Inuyasha said in a bit of a shock.
" Aye Inuyasha, is that so hard to believe?" Miroku became very impatient.
" What bet?" he yelled. They all stopped fighting and looked at him. Shippo smiled.
" They were putting up bets on what was wrong with you!" Inuyasha hit Shippo over the head sending him flying into the ground. Miroku began to sob.
" You guys are so mean!" Keade put her hands on his shoulders.
" Ye all should be more careful around ye since ye is with child ye will have mood swings." Inuyasha shot a freaked out look at Miroku.
" Um yeah I think I'm going to go take care of something." Inuyasha rushed quickly out of the hut. Kagome also had an awkward look in her eyes as she stood from the ground.
" Um I'm going to go home for awhile! Okay?" She grabbed her yellow bag and tore out of there like there was no tomorrow. Sango felt alone after Inuyasha and Kagome left and didn't know how she would make her escape from the awkward situation. In a couple of seconds, it finally came to her.
" I'm going to the hot springs." She said as she grabbed her things she was about to walk out when Miroku grabbed her shirt. She looked down at him he was smiling while rubbing his stomach.
" May we join you? We can have girl talk!" Miroku said cheerfully. Her eyes grew large; she was really freaked out by this, it was disturbing to her how easily he said 'Girl talk!'
" Um! No!" she said in a disturbed sounding voice. Miroku smiled.
" Well maybe another time dear." Sango walked out of the hot as fast as she could. She then walked pass Kirara and whispered in her ears.
" Watch Miroku for me and make sure he doesn't come over here." Sango said with sly eye's, Keade said that he would have mood swings because he's pregnant. Well, she didn't know whether not to believe he was pregnant or not but just in case he tried to pull something stupid, she could have Kirara on guard.
Miroku had a dumb founded look on his face.
" Is it just me or were they trying to ditch me." He began to cry.
" There, there Miroku ye will be alright." Keade said trying to comfort him in his time of need.
" So Miroku how did ye get this way?" Miroku looked at her with a scary look.
Kagome walked through the long grassy field towards the well. She had thought that Keade was just kidding around about him being with child but Miroku then confirmed it as the truth, but how was that possible? Men can't get pregnant? On the other hand, maybe they can in feudal Era? It is a strange Era anyway but whatever the reason he definitely was pregnant. The well was just up ahead of her and if she were going to make it in, she would have to run. She hurried as fast as she could. Once she reached it she jumped right in. The sparkly purple glow formed around her sending her back to her time. She then quickly pulled her self from the well and ran to her house. She then went to her mom's bookshelf and began surfing through then all. She was hoping to be able help him in some way, and getting a book on parenting and on birth might just be the way to go; also it would be hilarious to see the look on his face when she handed it to him. She then found the books she was looking for and with that stuffed them in her bag. She also went to the Kitchen to get the five bowls of Ramen that she had promised Inuyasha for winning the bet, although she still thought he was way off to win; but Keade had said he was still the closest so that meant he would win. The thoughts from earlier came to her mind once more, How did Miroku get pregnant? She then got the idea that maybe she should have asked him instead of running out on him.
Sango walked all the way to the hot spring. Nevertheless, decided not to go in, she had only said that as a way out of that hectic place. She didn't really like to go in alone and there was no way in hell she would go with Miroku there. The thought of Miroku being pregnant was scary by itself, any person who was pregnant would be scary but it's even freakier with Miroku because he's a pregnant lecture with mood swings and that mix couldn't be a good one. The thought began to trigger some questions in her head like how did he get pregnant? There was no way he could, she decided to go back and drag it out of him because if she didn't that question would bug her all day.
Miroku had just finished telling Keade everything that happened with young women, who cursed him just as Kagome, Inuyasha and Sango came barging practically on top of each other. Kagome and Sango then popped the question that was on all there minds.
" Miroku how did you get Pregnant." Miroku just laughed.
" If you guys didn't run away then you would have known just like Keade does." He said with a smirk.
Kagome smiled.
" But I didn't run away I went to and got you something." Miroku became full of curiosity along with Inuyasha.
" Oh! Well what was it if you don't mind me asking." She then popped a sly smile on her face.
" Oh I will give it to you only if you tell us what we want to know first." Miroku's face fell a couple of feet.
" Alright, fine. Well when I woke up from being punched out I saw a young women and I followed her!" they all listen in closely at this moment knowing that it was going to be good.
" Well I asked her the question." Inuyasha cut him off.
" You stupid letch." Kagome got angry that he stopped the story.
" Inuyasha! SIT! And be good." Inuyasha was lying flat on the floor wining under his breath. Miroku put his hand in front his mouth and had his usual serious face on.
" Well anyway, apparently she didn't like my answer through she didn't say it, but I could tell since she hit me in my stomach knocking me unconscious once again." Sango had a rather unhappy look on her face.
" So how does her hitting you there get you pregnant?" She said while crossing her arms. Miroku scratched his head and sighed.
" You didn't let me finish! When she hit me her hand went straight trough me like a ghost in doing that it allowed her to put a curse upon me to have to bear my own child. I know this to be the truth because she has come to me in several painful dreams and told me that I am pregnant. She said that the only way I can uplift the curse is to learn a lesson that she wants me to learn she didn't tell me what it was just that I have to figure it my own out and realize it." Inuyasha began to laugh sarcastically.
" With Sango hitting you as she does I would think you would have already learned a lesson." Kagome then started to smile devilishly.
" You're one to talk! I say the 's' word to you all the time and you still haven't learned anything." Kagome then sighed. Inuyasha growled at her.
" Keh! Like there is anything to learn." Kagome became very steamed with anger. Inuyasha's face became pail.
" No don't you even." He got up and began to run out the hut. Kagome was sitting down still with a big grin on her face.
" Sit boy." Inuyasha fell face first in the dirt. Kagome got up and walked out after him, everyone followed after her. She saw Inuyasha on the ground moaning in pain as he tried to get up only to fall back down. Kagome kneeled down next to him.
" Did you learn anything now?" He mumbled under his breath a few nasty words that she could barely catch. She then grabbed his arms and began to drag him across the dirt.
" Come guys we need to get back to camp before everything gets stolen." She growled as her face became a mild smile." Goodbye Keade thanks for your help!" Shippo had kept quiet the whole time his head ached too much from getting hit; He jumped into Sango's arms as she and Miroku left without hesitation to follow Kagome.
Kagome dragged Inuyasha all the way to the camp as he was in too much pain to pull away, he just instead complained under his breath the whole way. Sango and Miroku watch them both in astonishment that Kagome was strong enough to pull him and that Inuyasha allowed her too. Once they had made it back to camp Kagome checked all her thing's to make sure nothing was stolen. She smiled when she learned that everything was accounted for.
" Good everything's here." She then pulled out the books from her bag that she had gotten Miroku. She walked up to him and handed them to him.
" This is what I got you." He examined them for a while before being struck dumb.
" What are they for?" She smiled at him.
" The first one is called 'So Your Going to Be a Father?' it will help you once the kids born and the other one is called 'Thing's to and Things Not to do When Your Pregnant.' It will help with your Pregnancy!" Shippo and Sango began to crack up while Inuyasha was still getting over the big 'sit' command he was just issued with. Miroku was at a loss for words.
" Well thanks I guess!" he said. Kagome smiled cheerfully.
" If you need any help understanding any of it you can just ask." Miroku nodded then turned and looked at Sango who was laughing her but off with Shippo. He then gave them a dirty look.
" And what are you two laughing at?" Sango looked up at him.
" Oh nothing... it's just so funny." Miroku began to cry again.
" Why are you laughing at me, it's hard enough as it is with out you adding to it." Sango and Shippo's faces fell.
" Where sorry Miroku, don't cry!" he then stopped crying and nodded at them. Kagome smiled at Sango and Miroku, She then turned to Sango with a grin.
" Hey Sango want to go to the hot spring's before we go to sleep?" Sango nodded and Miroku spoke up.
" But Sango didn't you JUST go to the Hot Springs?" Sango just looked at him blankly, yeah sure she did go over there but she didn't go in because Kagome wasn't there. She hated going in alone but she wasn't about to tell him that.
" Yeah well I going to go again and you better not try anything!" She growled deeply. A look of utter confusion crossed Miroku's face. She just glared at him as she left with Kagome to the Hot Springs. Shippo went off into a corner of there camp to color with the crayons Kagome gave him in coloring book that she had also giving him from her time. Inuyasha and Miroku sat down in the camp they were both each other funny looks. Inuyasha finally spoke.
" So...Pregnant..." Miroku looked at him with a sigh.
" Looks like it!" Inuyasha then got a freaky scared look in his face.
" You know that kid has to come out sometime right?" Miroku stared at the ground blankly.
" Not if I learn this supposed 'lesson'!"
" And the odds of that?" Inuyasha waited for his answer for about minute when Miroku let out a giant sigh.
" Pretty slim..." Inuyasha face began to fill with wonder.
" You ever think about how that kid is going to come out?" Miroku gulped.
" No and I don't want to know." He actually never thought about before and since Inuyasha brought it up, it probably was going to bother him all night thinking about it, he probably would find out soon enough once he read the book that Kagome had given him. Inuyasha quiet talking and jumped up into the tree to watch for any Intruder. Miroku lied down on the ground and fell asleep thinking about what he was going to do now that he was pregnant.
