Disclaimer: -_- I think you get it by now
Neko Yasha: ok, two people guessed that the baby was a reincarnated form of Gama. Nope! Not quite, but close! You'll see soon. Also a bunch of people have asked me when Kurama would have the baby. I've made up my mind; he'll have the baby in chapter 13. There's gonna be either 20 or 25 chapters to this story. I'm not sure yet. So, any way, thank you for all the reviews! Now on with chapter 10! Or atleast I think its chapter 10...isn't it?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(Kurama's P.O.V)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I stood alone in the dark quiet empty hallway as I watched my mother run about the kitchen, performing her daily chores that we had both become accustom to. I let out a shaky breath as I tried to picture what her reaction would be once she found out about Hiei. She'd probably be quite angry with me at first, but my mother was never really the type to panic. She'd probably learn to accept it eventually. I turned around as I heard Hiei approach me from behind; watching curiously as my mother pulled out a small glass casserole dish from the oven. "What is she doing?" Hiei asked as he quirked an eyebrow in confusion. "Cooking. They do it differently here." I explained as Hiei nodded in understanding. "Are you going to tell her?" he whispered in my ear. I took one last look at my mother's smiling features as she hummed softly, giving her something to do in order to pass the time, then timidly headed into the kitchen, Hiei at my heels.
Once my Mother had finally noticed us standing in the doorway, she set the food on the table then turned to us and smiled. "Suuichi dear, you didn't tell me you were having company." I blinked a couple times before it became apparent that my mother thought Hiei was a mere dinner guest. "Um, yes mother. This is Hiei. A very, um, 'close' friend of mine." I said, as I stepped over to my right, revealing the tiny fire demon. "Well hello there! Very nice to meet you." My mother said politely as she stepped a bit closer to Hiei. Hiei only gave a simple 'Hn' and a nod as he greeted my mother. Her warm smile never left her face as she gestured for Hiei and I to sit down for dinner, which turned out to be more like an early thanks giving, do to my mother's bad habit of over cooking. "Please, sit down. There's plenty of food for every one." Hiei did as he was told, as did i. "Yes, we can see that mother. All though I don't see why you'd make 3 different courses for just one meal." She giggled, then took a seat her self, across from Hiei and I.
"Don't be silly! This way we'll have lots of leftovers, and I won't have to go grocery shopping! Besides, you're eating for two, and your little friend needs to put some meat on those bones." I saw Hiei cross his arms and pout in disapproval as my mother referred to him as my 'little' friend. "Well, dig in every one!" she said as she handed a plate full of food to Hiei and myself. I wasted no time in shoveling the food into my mouth, while Hiei on the other hand simply poked at it, looking at the plate of Curie questioningly.
I watched as Hiei carefully scooped some of the spicy substance into his spoon, then hesitantly placed it in his mouth. Hiei's eyes grew wide as he spit the curie into a napkin, then quickly reached for his glass of water, guzzling it down in a minimum of two large gulps, then attempting to stuff as many dinner rolls in his mouth as he could, trying to get the spicy taste out of his mouth. "What's the matter?" I asked quietly as Hiei finally calmed down a bit. "It's hot!" "Well of course it is. It's supposed to be that way." Hiei's eyes grew to the size of dinner plates. "It's supposed to burn my taste buds off?!" He asked frantically.
My mother giggled as she got up from her chair and reached into the refrigerator, pulling out a small container of food. "Suuichi had the same problem when he was younger. That's why I always keep some mild Curie around. It's made especially for children." She placed the curie in front of Hiei, as she smiled warmly down at him. Hiei glared at the offending food, somewhat afraid that it would have the same effect as the last dish had. "No thank you. I think I'll just stick to the salad." My mother nodded in understanding then took a seat, continuing with her meal. "So, Suuichi, how do you and Hiei know each other?"
I nearly fell out of my chair as the question finally came up, Hiei having a similar reaction; nearly choking on a dressing soaked piece of chicken. "Um, Mother....speaking of that, there's something Hiei and I should tell you." My mother put down her fork, giving me her undivided attention. "Hiei's not a friend from school as you might think. He is my lover, as well as the father of my child."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mean while, high up in the spirit realm, Lemon-lime flavored soda flew from Koenma's tiny mouth and into ogre's face as he watched the large screen that contained the images of Kurama and Hiei, speaking to the human child Suuichi's mother. He had been rather surprised at first that Genkai had allowed his mother to know in the first place, but this was not at all what they had planned. "Sir, didn't Genkai say that his mother was not to know the truth?" Ogre asked as he too watched on in confusion. Koenma slowly turned towards ogre's blue, soda soaked face, a bored look on his child-like features. He slowly and calmly brought his hand above his head, then swiftly brought it down across Ogre's face, causing the large creature to cry out in pain. "Ah! Koenma Sir! What was that for?!" Ogre asked, unnecessary tears streaming down his face. "For being so dense! Of course Genkai said his mother was not to know the truth! That doesn't mean he'll listen! This is Kurama we're talking about for gods sake!" Ogre sniffled. "Yeah but. 'sniffle' you don't have to be so mean!" Koenma sweat dropped at the unusually baby like creature. 'For a big guy he's awfully pathetic.' Koenma sighed around his light blue pacifier then turned back to the screen. 'Kurama, what are you doing?'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(Kurama's P.O.V)~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So, you weren't raped?" I shook my head sadly. "It's a long story. But all you need to know is that Hiei is the father." My mother looked shocked. "I-I don't know what to say."
"I know you don't, but- suddenly there was a knock on the door. "I'll get that! It's probably the doctor. Come along Hiei." Hiei didn't hesitate to follow as we practically ran to the door. Once we had arrived at our destination, I leaned up a bit to peer into the peak hole. Once I saw who it was, I nearly fainted as I barely caught myself from falling onto the ground. Hiei, its Botan!" Hiei was shocked to say the least as he too leaned up to peer into the peak hole, revealing none other than Botan her self. "What is she doing here?! And why is she dressed like that?!" Hiei said, referring to Botan's unusual apparel. Indeed, she was dressed in a very short white uniform that belonged to a nurse; her hair was piled up in a bun, underneath a small white cap, a stethoscope hung about her neck, and a pair of small black thick framed glasses sat on the bridge of her nose. I sighed. 'Well, I guess we can't ignore her forever. Eventually my mother will answer the door.' As if on cue, my mother walked into the room after she heard Botan repeatedly pound on the door. "Suuichi? Aren't you going to open the door?" I gulped, then nodded shakily. "Y-yes mother. I will." Slowly, I turned around and cautiously turned the doorknob, until a cheery looking grim reaper confronted me. "Hello! My name is DR. Botan! Pleasure to meet you, you must be MR. Minnamino!" she said as she grabbed my hand and shook it furiously, winking at me before turning to my mother.
"And you must be Mrs. Minnamino!" she repeated her actions, taking my mother's hand in her own.
"Um, yes. I am. Won't you come in?" she asked politely, as she opened the door, allowing Botan to step in.
"Great. Now if you'll all follow me up stairs, I'll perform the ultra-sound!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Mm-hmm." She murmured as she looked over my enlarged stomach. "So far so good. Lets take a closer look on the ultrasound, shall we?" we all nodded, as she began to spread some sort of icy cold goo onto my stomach, before hooking up the necessary equipment. In minutes, she flipped on the screen and we all got a good look at some sort of object that appeared to be almost human. "There it is. That's your baby." I gasped as I realized that she was right. That was my baby. Hiei and I watched on in fascination as we began to see details in the baby's features such as toes, fingers, the spine and even a nose, mouth and eyes.
This would be the first time I had ever seen my baby. It was absolutely magical to look down at my child as it rested contently, snug and warm in my abdomen. "It's beautiful." I whispered to know one in particular.
My moment of happiness was cut short as Botan flipped off the screen and wiped the gooey substance from my stomach. "Well every thing looks good. Now I feel I need to run a couple more tests, so Mrs. Minnamino, I would appreciate it if you leave the room." Mother nodded and bowed in respect before walking out of the room, shutting the door on her way out. Once I was sure she was gone, I pulled my shirt down and sat up on the bed. "What do you think you're doing here?!" I asked, Anger arising in my voice.
"I'm your doctor silly. I came to check up on you." Hiei began to get frustrated, so he swiftly grabbed Botan by the collar and lifted her above the ground. "What are you really doing here? The truth this time!"
Botan trembled as Hiei pressed her up against a wall. "Alright! Koenma saw you speaking with your mom! He sent me here to make sure you don't tell any one else!" she admitted. "Oh? And how are you going to do that?" Hiei finally released Botan. "Simple. Koenma gave me this-she held up a small test tube filled with a sort of powder. "To hurry your pregnancy along." Hiei and I blinked a couple times, trying to register what she meant by that. "What?" "Just what I said. Koenma wishes for you to drink this, and once you do, you will be exactly 8 months pregnant and your baby will be almost fully developed. Then you'll only have to keep this a secret for another month." "And what if I don't want to?"
"Then your baby will be banished to the spirit realm forever and you will have no other chance of barring a child." I thought about it for a few minutes, then looked to Hiei, who nodded in allowance. "Alright"
Botan smiled and handed me the small tube, and I swiftly gulped it down in one swift movement.
It only took a few minutes for the effect to take place, for right before my very eyes, my stomach began to grow larger and larger until I thought I was going to pop. Next was my chest, which also expanded slightly, but not enough to look unnatural. After a few minutes, I began to wonder if it was over. But then I began to develop that disgusting taste in my mouth and quickly rushed towards the bathroom, Hiei hot on my heels, catching my hair just in time. After I had emptied my stomach, I flushed the toilet and sat up a bit.
Hiei rubbed my back comfortingly. "Feel better?" I nodded shakily and moved back to the bed, where finally laid myself to rest for the evening.

Neko Yasha: Alrighty then! There's chapter 10!
Chibi Kurama: hey, that wimes!
Hiei: hn. 2000 words long. Happy?
Neko Yasha: sorry it took so long to update, but we were having some issues with our friends. Or should I say Ex-friends
Chibi Kurama: They said we were pathetic losers and made fun of us! WAAAAA!
Neko Yasha: Yeah! And then started preaching to us about how we need help and all this shit!
Hiei: bunch of bitches. Screw them!
Neko Yasha: Lena, Alex, if you're reading, F*CK YOU!
Chibi Kurama: so, any way, please R&R!
Hiei: no flames please. We aren't really in the mood.
Chibi Kurama: thankies! Bye bye! ^_^
