Okay. Perhaps I haven't stated this…

I'm not trying to be mean or catty or anything of that sort. But, I've had a few people tell me that they want me to stop writing yaoi in the story. *sighs*

I'm sorry, first of all.

Second, there will be more yaoi. Maybe for quite a few more chapters. After that, you're home free. But until then, you'll have to deal with it. Apologies, but that's the way I planned this story.

Again, I'm sorry. I don't mean to upset anyone with this, I just want to give people fair warning. So, anyway, on with the fic!

End of Days

By Alpha-Parvani

* * * * *

            I was depressed for weeks after Kagome told me about the baby. It wasn't something I had time to deal with. Koga tried as hard as he could to cheer me up, but I ended up coming out of it on my own. Sort of.  Koga had a bit of an influence…

* * * * *

            I was being a pathetic bum in the den. I just sat in my corner near the waterfall and watched the water…well, fall. And I watched the stars at night. Koga had been giving up on snapping me out of it, resorting to just putting his hand on my shoulder, giving me a sad look, then walking away. I never really acknowledged it.

Until one day.

            One day, Koga snapped. He had set some food down in front of me, then placed his hand on my shoulder. I didn't so much as look at him. A low growl bubbled up from his chest. I suddenly found myself on my back, startled, with a very angry, very heavy wolf demon sitting on my chest.

            "That's enough, inukorro. Get over it already! I'm sick of taking care of you. You're going to eat that meal, then come to me. We're going to have a talk." He got up and stalked away. The wolves and other wolf demons scrambled to get out of his way.

            Slowly, Ginta and Hakkaku came over to me, looking worried. I was still lying on the ground. Ginta helped me into a sitting position. "I sure feel sorry for you, Inu-niisan." I looked at him oddly. "Why?" He patted my back. "The last person Koga 'had a talk' with ended up in the medical area for a few weeks." I winced. 'I'm fucked.' Hakkaku gave me a weak smile. "I'm sure he'll go easy on you." I sighed. "Yeah… easy on me." I sat back in my corner.

            The two wolves left. I stared at the food for ten minutes before finally reaching out to start eating it. Once it was finished, I slowly got to my feet and grumbled at the feeling of the blood rushing back into my legs. They had gone numb a while ago.

            After I stretched a little, I made my way, quietly, to Koga's bed. He was curled up in the center of it, looking like he was sleeping. But I could hear his breathing was at a normal tempo. I sat next to him. A few moments of silence ensued until he finally rolled over to lay on his back. "About the pup."

            I winced. "Koga…" He growled. "No. You listen to me. I'm not disagreeing with you about your course of action. I just…weren't you being a little harsh? I mean… the boy isn't even born yet, and you're already isolating yourself from him." I groaned softly and fell back to lay beside Koga. He turned onto his stomach and propped himself up on his elbows, staring at me intently.

            "I told Kagome to take him to her world. He'll be safer there. There he can hide, and won't be known for being a… half-breed." I bit my bottom lip. "And when he's old enough, I will come to him and teach him how to be a demon. Half. Whatever." I took a deep breath a side. "Why did this have to happen?" Koga shrugged. "It's all by chance. You never know if something like this is going to happen. You just have to accept it and deal with it. Make it worth something." He lowered himself back onto the fur, mumbling something about it being warm.

            I smiled faintly. "I suppose you're right." He glanced up at me. I saw amusement in his eyes. "Yeah, yeah. I'm agreeing with you. Wow." I rolled my eyes and turned onto my side, my back to Koga. After a moment, he slung his arm over me. "I'm always right…" He murmured into my ear before burying his face into my hair. Seconds later, he was fast asleep. I laughed quietly and closed my eyes, but I didn't sleep.

            'Koga's been such a help… I'm not even worried about the pup anymore. Maybe I should hang around for a little while when the pup is born… Let him get to recognize my scent and appearance, so then…he might remember me when he's older. Yeah. I'll do that. It's probably the best I could do… I don't need any more connections to Kagome. I'm not going to stay around her forever like some stray… she left me first…' I yawned widely and curled into a ball just a little. Now I was tired…

~~Weeelll? Not much. Just a little more. Next chapter, I think…will be a few months later…*nudge, nudge* Das BA-BY! *laughs* R&R!
