I don't own Inuyasha, but  Fang, Riana, Kirara, Rei, and Rekka, belong to me!

Chapter 8

Double Trouble

          "Bye! Sesshomaru! Bye Rin-chan!" Kirara smiles happily at the lord and his charge. She chuckles when she sees the sulking toad, "Bye Jaken!"

          "Bye Kirara-chan! Bye Riana-chan! Bye Shippo-san! Bye cousin Wren! Rin hope you come back soon!"

          "Goodbye, Uncle! Cousin! Jaken!" Wren manages a small grin.

          "Farewell, Rin-chan," Riana sighs, her cold eyes turning slightly soft.

          "Sayonara everyone!" Shippo waves. The foursome departs from the Inu Youkai Lord's castle, but as soon as they are far enough away not to be heard by Wren's uncle, Shippo can't hold his tongue any longer. "It's hard to believe that he used to hate Inuyasha and his friends, not to mention all humans."

          "Rin has calmed Lord Sesshomaru, has she not, young master?"

          "So now you show your face, coward!" Kirara hisses at the flea demon on Wren's right shoulder.

Wren can only frown, "My father and mother are dead, Myouga."

"WHAT!" Myouga seems to be in shock, "How can that be when I spoke to Lord Inuyasha and Lady Kagome yesterday?"

"You lie, flea," Wren snarls.

"Wren," Kirara places a hand on his unoccupied shoulder. "Myouga might have been speaking to their spirits; it is possible in either time."

"Hai," Riana sighs. "Unfortunately, for us that it is. We may be seeing my mother."

          "WHAT?" the other three in the group yelp.

          "AHHHHHHHHHH!" twin shrieks are heard.

          "Oomph!" two screaming blurs of white crash into Wren and Kirara.

          "GET BACK HERE!" growls a brown inu youkai.

          Wren looks down to see a wolf cub looking up at him with horror, "Kirara, take this pup. I'll deal with the rabid dog."

          Kirara pulls the pup to her, and keeps her grip on the one that has attached itself to her, "Be careful, Wren," she whispers. She hugs the two whimpering pups, "We'll protect you."

          "Ignorant pup! You believe yourself my match?" the brown youkai laughs.

          "My neko could beat you," Wren smirks and draws Tetsusaiga.

          "You plan to battle me with that rusty excuse for a blade?" the inu laughs. "I think that neko-bitch of yours would accept a REAL inu in her bed, not some hanyou pup!"

Wren growls as the inu insults his heritage and his Kirara, "Then you don't know who my father, mother, or uncle, are."

          "WREN!" Kirara growls, "Stop talking and fight him!"

          "With pleasure, my mate," the brown inu stares at Kirara with lust prominent in his sludge filled eyes.

          "I AM NOT YOUR MATE!" Kirara shrieks angrily as she deposits the pups into Shippo's arms, freeing her Fang. She growls as she stands next to Wren. "Double?"

         "Double!" Wren smirks as Tetsusaiga transforms and runs to attack the inu from the backside. Kirara growls as she advances on the inu from the front.

Rage flashes in both of their eyes, Kirara attacks and her blade is met by the inu. He smirks as he leans over their swords and takes in her scent. Kirara and Wren growl as one. The inu blocks Tetsusaiga. Kirara smirks as she sees his attention diverted from her. She yanks her sword away from his and slices his cheek.

He slices her arm with his claws as she jumps away. The inu pushes Wren back, and throws him into a tree. Kirara growls, and takes a defensive stance. Riana tries to enter the fight, but Shippo holds her back. Kirara hisses angrily as her hair stands up a bit while the inu advances toward her. The inu lunges towards her as she tries to meet his sword again. Her sword is knocked from her grasp, and the inu is on top of her, legs straddling her waist. She lets loose a mixture of yowls, screeches, hisses, and growls. Making the inu's hair stand on end, as he hold down her claws and kisses her. Blood from his cheek runs through her teeth and into her mouth, as he tries to force her to allow him to deepen the kiss. Kirara's eyes are beginning to turn red. The inu slumps onto her, motionless.

Wren pulls his sword free of the dead inu, and tosses the corpse off of Kirara. Kirara growls as she glares at the dead body. Wren couches down next to her and holds her close. "Riana! Get the Fang! Kirara is slowly beginning to loose herself to her youkai!" Wren growls protectively. He kisses her ears to try and calm her. Riana grasps the Fang's hilt and gives it to Kirara.

Kirara gasps, "Wren, something is wrong…" A light bursts from her form… changing her into...

"Kirara…" Wren tries to calm her.

          "Am I an inu hanyou?" Kirara's lost eyes gaze into Wrens.

          "You are, but you look exactly the same, your scent marks you as inu, not neko," Wren sighs and tries to comfort his girlfriend.

          "Do I smell bad, now?" Kirara whimpers.

         "No, you smell a really good…" Wren mumbles as he buries his face in her hair, for emphasis.

          "Um, guys?" Shippo winces, "What are we going to do about the wolf pups?"

          "Wolf!" Kirara and Wren yip in surprise.

          "Hi pretty lady," the female white wolf pup smiles shyly. "I'm Rei."

          "Sister, you want to trust inus'?" the male white wolf pup pouts.

          "That's my twin brother," Rei smiles. "His name is Rekka."

          "Feh!" Wren mumbles.

          "I'm Kirara, the grumpy one is Wren, the girl over there is Riana, and the fox is Shippo," Kirara grins.

          "Where are your parents? Shouldn't they be protecting you?" Wren grumbles.

          "THAT MEAN DOGGIE KILLED THEM!" Rei cries. Tears spill down both of the twins cheeks at the memory.

          Kirara wriggles out of Wren's arms, and scoops them both up into her arms, "Shh. It's okay, you can stay with us. You're safe."

          "They're WHAT!" Riana and Wren yell together.

          "They're staying with us, and that's final!" Kirara growls at her boyfriend and Riana. Wren sulks, while Shippo comforts Riana by telling her his past.

          "Can we call you Oka-san?" Rekka bites his lip nervously.

          "If you like," Kirara hugs the two tightly in a motherly-like embrace.

Sorry it's short! I'll try to make it longer next time, but I had writers block! What do you think of the twins? They're not really described as anything besides white yet, so I'll have to describe them better in the next chapter! Bye for now!
