Chapter?: My Child is a Bastard



************************************************

"That Kagome, that is the pregnant smell.", Inuyasha informed smugly, little did he know what reactions this was about to set off.






Miroku immediatly turned to face him. The houshi looked as if Inuyasha had just promised him the world, but he wasn't sure whether or not he was teasing. "Wh-What did you say Inuyasha?"





The hanyou smirked at him, "Sango, shes pregnant."




As any semi-normal people would do who were not currently throwing up, Kagome and Miroku stared wide eyed at Inuyasha, aperantly quite speechless



"Sango's pregnant?", Kagome continued to stare in shock.




"SOMEONE IS FINALY BARING MY CHILD?!?!", Inuyasha nodded, and, at this point, Miroku's face broke out into a smile so big, it looked painful. Almost immediatly, he ran up to Kagome, and grabbed her hands, in a way, he had become quite famous for.




Kagome was confused, Miroku was rather..giddy, and now he had come up to her and grabbed her hands?





"Lady Kagome?", the houshi continued to grin broadly, his eyes shining bright, "Will you bare my child?"



"EH?!", Now, Kagome was realy realy realy confused, and was about to bash Miroku on the head for saying such a thing, and in front of Sango!




"WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING LETCH?!?!", Inuyasha had came up to the two, and appeared to be about to kill the pervert.




Miroku quickly waved Inuyasha aside, "Just say yes Kagome!! Just do it!?!!"




Not wanting Miroku to get killed, and fearing that he had gone insane, she reluctantly complied, "um...sure?"





At this point, Miroku went into near hysterical laughter, "TOO BAD!! You CAN'T SANGO ALREADY IS!! SOMEONE IS ACTUALY BARING MY CHILD!! AND ITS ACTUALY SOMEONE I LOVE!!! MY SANGO'S having OUR baby!!"




Kagome and Inuyasha finaly understood what had happened, Miroku, had, in fact gone insane. "Inuyasha, I think Miroku's gone crazy..", The girl freed her hands from the insane ones grasp.



Inuyasha grabbed Kagome by the arm and pulled her over to himself protectively.




Miroku's laughter had finaly died down somewhat, and, between choked laughs, he was able to get out a sentence, "I-I-I'm, Not *laugh*, Cra-*laugh* Crazy.!"




"Oh NOOOO, my baby's gonna be a bastard! I'm having a bastard child!", It seemed as though Sango had finaly finished throwing up.




The damnation of his first born, brought Miroku's attention immediatly to sango, he ran over to her at once, fearing SHE was the one who had gone crazy. Inuyasha and Kagome quickly followed suit.



Kagome and Inuyasha stayed a good 3 feet away from the two, both still doubting their mentality. Miroku put his arm around the crying demon exterminators shoulders. "what are you talking about Sango?"



"Our baby's gonna be born out of wedlock! Its gonna be a bastard child!", Sango sobbing was getting louder, pretty soon the whole village would be coming to see what was going on.



"But..Sango, you said you didn't want to have a marriage ceremony, since you didn't have any real family left to have it for, remember? You said that Inuyasha, Kagome, Shippo, Kaede, and Kirara were the only people left that you would consider family, and they excepted us as married even with out the ceremony!..rememer?"



"I NEVER SAID THAT!!!", Sango wailed.



"Yes..you did..when we went to..um..find your boomerang?"




"NO I DIDN't HOUSHI-SAMA!!!", Kagome and Inuyasha had both covered their sensitive ears now, Sangos crying had become pretty painful.



Miroku looked crestfallen for a second, but quickly covered it up, "Sango..please don't go back to calling me that anymore, I realy prefer it when you call me by my ACTUAL name.."



"Fine then! I NEVER SAID I DIDN'T WANT TO GET MARRIED, *MIROKU*!"



"Um..Sango-chan, ya think you could quiet it down a little?", Kagome suggested meekly, fearing the demon exterminators wrath should she be offended.



Noticing that Kirara was no where to be found, driven away by the noise, and how everyone, now including Miroku, were holding their ears, Sango quieted down somewhat. She was COMPLETLEY aware that yes, she had in fact said that to Miroku, but she wasn't about to admit it, now her feelings were different! 'Damn mood swings...'


"Uh..Sango?", Miroku removed one hand from his ears and placed it on Sango's shoulder. "If you like, I can perform a *small* ceromony for us..I *am* a monk..."..'Anything to get her to stop crying...'



Sango's face lit up, and she quickly glomped onto Miroku, "Thank you, I love you so much, THANK YOU! can you do it now? we're going to have a baby! WER'E HAVING A BABY TOGETHER!"




It appeared as though Sango had finaly caught some of Miroku's enthusiasm.





Miroku kissed the top of Sango's head, truth be told, he had never performed a marriage ceremony before, and had pretty much no idea how to. "Um..sure Sango..but...Don't you wanna wait on Shippo?"





Detecting the uneasy tone of Miroku's voice, Kagome understood his dilema, "He's right Sango! Why don't you wait untill Shippo's back? He would HATE to miss it, and he'd feel so left out!"







"Feh, the little brat don't hav-OOMPH", Inuyasha stopped mid sentence, the result of being jabbed in the ribs with Kagome's elbow. "Umm..yeah..wait on Shippo..feh..", Kagome smiled at him aprovingly, he growled quitely.








Sango frowned and backed away from Miroku, looking thoughtful."Well..I guess we could wait.."







Not about to let Sango change her mind, Kagome ran over and hugged her friend, "Sango! Your pregnant! Your gonna have a little baby Miroku!"






Kagome backed away from Sango, realizing what she had just said.'Another Miroku..?', involuntarily, she shuddered.







"Lets hope its a baby *Sango*.", Inuyasha grumbled, discomforted once again with the idea of little Miroku's running around.









"Whats wrong with her having a boy?", Miroku asked defensively.









"One hentai is enough.", Sango informed her husband-to-be with a pat on the head, she then turned to Inuyasha and Kagome, "You can't tell if its a boy or girl, can you?"










Kagome, not knowing much about being a hanyou except that being in heat was embarrasing, and being able to detect a few smells, shrugged her shoulders, while Inuyasha looked reluctant to bestow any more information, he was growing tired of being so nice.






"Feh.", Yep, there, he had succeded in regaining some of his stubborness.







"INUYUSHA! TELL SANGO OR I'LL 'SIT' YOU!!", Inuyasha promptly crashed to the ground, grumbling something about 'damn youkia heats..'








"NOW Inuyasha, answer her!"






"Can't you at least wait till the spell wears off?", His voice was muffled noticably by the dirt.








Miroku brought his staff down upon the hanyous head. "Must you be so stubborn Inuyasha? Sango wants to know whether or not she has to be afraid of her child.", As he said this, he cast a glare in Sango's direction, still offended that she hoped she wouldn't have a baby like him.








Inuyasha lept from the ground and casualy dusted himself off, the spell having worn off, "Don't do that again letch, I WAS going to answer! You just didn't give me anytime. Sango, our not pregnant enough that I could tell yet!"






"Pregnant enough?", Sango repeated, not quite understanding his wording.







"Yeah, me and Kagome were only gone four days, and you weren't pregnant before we left or I would have smelled it, so you can't be more than four days pregnant, for a human, it'll take about a month or two before I can smell the gender!", he smiled smugly, once again proud that he knew something they didn't.




"Oh...OH NOT AGAIN!", Sango turned away from them and began to throw up again. Being the concerned husband-to-be that he was, Miroku obediantly took his role beside Sango, holding her hair back with one hand, and rubbing her stomache with the other.The two were obviously in their own little world.






*****






Sango had long since gone inside the hut to lie down, not feeling particularly well for obvious reasons, and Miroku had joined her, to watch over her. Sango had tried again and again to convince him that she was just pregnant, NOT dieing, however, this didn't seem to have any affect over him.








Kaede had finaly finished with all her herb grinding, and, finaly noticing the world around her, she had turned to Sango, and informed her that she, 'thought she might be pregnant'.








This did not go over to well with the demon exterminator, and Kaede had made a mental note not to grind herbs unless she was alone..she knew how she could get when she was grinding herbs..she put her full heart and self into it...how she loved to grind herbs..






**************







Inuyasha and Kagome sat outside in a tree with Kirara. Each of them had quickly grown tired of a mood swinging Sango, even Inuyasha had decided that Kagome with a heat temper was better than those moodswings of Sango's.. so now here they were, just enjoying the bright sunny day.







"You know..I could get used to these trees..", Kagome was on a branch directly above Inuyasha, laying upon it on her stomache, her arms draping over the limb and occasionaly fiddling with the hanyous ears below her. Kirara lay snuggled up on her back.







"Feh..leave my ears alone or I'm gonna mess with yours and make you purr again!" Quickly, he caught the hand she was bringing down to rub his years yet again. He placed it back up with her. "Keep your hands up there with you Kagome."








Not listening to him, she brought her hand down again to pet his ears. He growled, but soon that turned into a purr, and he decided he might as well just let her go ahead.







"Miroku doesn't know how to perform a marriage ceremony..thats why he wanted to wait till' Shippo got back, buy him some time..though I don't know HOW hes gonna be able to find any time with Sango like she is.."










The mention of marriage reminded Inuyasha of something that had been bothering him earlier, "Kagome..I know you used to always day dream about all that marriage and girly shi-erm..stuff..but you didn't even get to have one...do you regret that?"






Kagome sighed heavily, she had in fact wanted to have a big wedding with her family, what girl didn't? But it was only a wedding, she could do without it, the important thing was she had Inuyasha, and that was more than enough for her. "Inuyasha, I have you, I won't regret anything as long as I have you...I would have liked to have had a wedding..but that would have been impossible..its ok.."







"Kagome..", he reached up and rubbed her own ears.







"HEY!", she attempted to swat his hand away, but realized she didn't realy mind, and soon she was purring softly, perfectly content.






"Kagome...when we live to your old time..I'll find a way for us to get married then..by then I will understand all of that wierd stuff that gos on then, and it'll be easier...we can have a ceremony then..for now, just remember that we are mates, and that means a lot more that the terms 'husband', and 'wife'...they don't even allow youkia marriages now..but in your time they won't even know we are youkia..somehow..how does that sound Kagome?"





"Kagome?"





It was then that he realized the girl must havefallen asleep. "Stupid wench..just when I have something NICE to say..", he smiled slightly.."I guess you HAVE gotten used to trees..and you've only slept in one once.."






It was barely midday, not near time for either of them to go to sleep, but Kagome was obviously tired from all the..'things', she had done while in heat...and, since Inuyasha had nothing better to do, he decided he might as well take a nap as well, better that than face the scary pregnant woman.






Worried that she might fall, or more likely just because he wanted too, Inuyasha picked up Kagome and brought her onto his branch. He leaned up against the trunk with her in his lap, soon, Kirara had came down and lain in Kagome's lap.



"Damn cat..if its not Shippo being a nuisance, then its Kirara..."



Kagome smiled the smallest of smiles, hoping Inuyasha wouldn't notice.




********************** WITH SESHY-MARU!***************







Seshy-maru walked on, as he had done for quite sometime now on his search for Kagura. Rin had not spoken since yesterday, as he still had not forgiven her for the new dreadful nickname she had given him. The search for Kagura was drawing to a close. It wouldn't be much longer now...probably only another day...that is, if she didn't go flying off on that damn feather again.








Seshy-Maru was growing tired of the boring silence, "Rin, you can talk now."








"Thank you Seshy-shoumaru-sama!"








"RIN! WHAT DID I TELL YOU! NOW YOUR CALLING ME SESHY-SHOUMARU!!"








"I'm sorry...please don't make Rin not talk again..". Her voice trembled, it was clear that she did NOT enjoy not being able to talk to her Seshy-shou-maru.










"Rin...", he sighed, "why do I even bother..."








"W-w-what?", Rin didn't like the way his voice sounded...









"Why do I even take you with me? Why do I watch over you like this!? Your a blasted human wench!"












Rin tried to contain the tears that were falling down her cheeks, she made not a sound, but the tears came none the less..'Seshy..wants to leave Rin?'








"No! Please don't leave RIN! PLEASE DON'T! I'll call you Seshoumaru-sama! Please don't leave Rin...Rin loves you! Don't abandon Rin!"








Seshoumaru sighed again. He hated the way the sound of her pleading voice was making his heart break..that involuntary emotion it was bringing. He brought the girl down off of his shoulders and placed her on the ground.









By now, Rin was no longer silent, her Seshy-maru was leaving her! He had put her down! And now he was going to leave her!








"Please No!! No..don't leave Rin.."






Seshoumaru stared down at the weeping girl, wandering why it was that her tears made him feel this way...daring himself to leave..trying to force himself to..







Sighing yet again, he picked Rin up, not even bothering to but her on his shoulders, instead, cradling her in his arms, letting her lay her head down on his tail. **A/N...*snicker*....**




He looked at her tearstained face, she appeared shocked and hopeful. Averting his gaze to the trail in front of him, he brought her a little closer..





"Rin..I won't leave you..I can't...ever.."





The little girl stopped crying and smiled slightly, burring her face in Seshy-maru's tail.








He didn't know why he couldn't leave her, the little human girl that loved him so much. She was only a week human, and he was Lord of The Western lands! Could it be that he might love her too? Just a little bitty bit..?



He sighed once more..'What have I turned in to?'
