Well, it's 2:30 in the morning, I can't sleep, and I'm watching Paradise Hawaiian Style starring Elvis Presley. I love Elvis! And if anyone has a problem with it, come talk to me... ((grrr!!!)) Anyway, this is the final chapter of this fan-fiction. But don't worry, there's going to be a sequel. So, let's end it.

Warnings: Nothing big is happening just because it's the last chapter, so there!

Chapter 18: Kasumi's Decision

Kasumi sat down with her mother back in her own times. She was now three months into her prengancy and decided it was time to give the news. She took a deep breath and tried to get the butterflies in her stomach to calm down as well as her nerves.

"Mom," she said sternly. "It's been a few months, and I've decided to tell you. I'm pregnant."

Kagome smiled and replied, "Finally you got the guts to tell me."

Kasumi tilted her head. "You mean you already knew?"

"Miroku told us," said Kagome.

Kasumi was flared with anger. "What do you mean Miroku told you?!"

"Relax, sweetie," Kagome said reassuringly. "Sango and I kind of forced it out of him. We knew he was hiding something from us and we needed to find out."

Her daughter was still angry. She crossed her arms over her chest and looked angrily at the ground.

"But congratulations, honey!" Kagome said excitedly.

"Wait a sec," Kasumi said; confused. "You mean you're not mad?"

Kagome took her daughter's hands in her own and explained, "Kasumi, I know the kind of situation you're in. I was pregnant with you at age fifteen. Sure, my mother got mad, but she was there for me. And I'm there for you. But most of all, I'm not bad. This is your chance to show me how responsible you can be."

"Haven't I shown you responsibility with the Sacred Jewel?" Kasumi asked.

"Yes, but that doesn't really count," replied Kagome. "I mean personally. Show me that you can handle another being. You got to admit in school you weren't all that responsible."

Kasumi decided to ignore the comment.

"Not to mention you're not the only one pregnant at the moment," Kagome continued.

Kasumi once again tilted her head in confusion. "I'm not?"

"Let's just say Sango got... how do you say it... got 'knocked up' by Miroku."

Kasumi burst out laughing. Miroku actually impregnated Sango! Not to mention hearing her mother say 'knocked her up' sounded hilarious.

"Are you serious?!"

"Yeah. What's the big deal?"

"Miroku tried to get her to do that for years! What made Sango change her mind?"

Kagome shrugged and replied, "I'm not sure. But she's only about one month into it. We're still not one hundred percent sure, but we'll know soon."

Just then something else crossed Kasumi's mind. "Does Dad know about the baby?"

Kagome shook her head. "No... no he doesn't," she said. "But I would still tell him if I were you."

Kasumi abruptly stood up and argued, "No way! You tell him!"

Kagome stood up as well and said quietly, "I can't. This is your baby. Besides, Inuyasha will get even more angry if I were to be the one to tell him."

"Well, I guess you're right," Kasumi said.

She began to leave the house and go to the Warring States Era. On the way out, she bumped into Hojo. He glared at her. Kasumi glared back and growled. Sparks flew between the glares. Finally Kasumi walked on ignoring her passer-by.

When Kasumi got back to the Feudal Era, she got a surprising, surprise. Inuyasha and Miroku seemed to be working on something. Inuyasha got startled once he caught Kasumi's scent. He stood up and got Miroku to help him cover the project.

"Kasumi!" he said; alarmed. "What are you doing here?"

Kasumi gave him a suspicious look. "I'm here to tell you something... why?"

"No reason," Miroku replied.

Sango appeared in the hut with a pile of blankets in her hands. She was saying, "I got some fur blankets from one of Koga's henchmen; Ginta. Perfect for the--" she caught sight of Kasumi. Her heart skipped a beat as she continued nervously, "Perfect for the cold nights in the forest!"

Kasumi gave Sango a suspicious look as well as she said, "But we live in this abandoned hut that Kaede suggested we keep. What the hell's going on here?"

Inuyasha nudged Miroku with his arm. The two separated and revealed a hand made basinet. Kasumi gasped and stepped closer to it.

"You guys made this yourselves?" she asked in awe.

Inuyasha nodded and hugged her. "I heard about your baby. And just to show that I'm not as angry as you think, we made this for him. Or her."

"But you're still angry," Kasumi replied breaking the hug. She felt Inuyasha still grasp her shoulders.

"Yes," he replied. "Number one, you're still young. Number two, Koga did this to you! And number three... I'm worried about what you're going to do about Naraku..."

Kasumi argued back, "Number one, Mom was even younger when she had me. Number two, I also helped make this baby. Number three... well... I'm gonna have to agree with you on number three."

Inuyasha gave up. He had to admit, Kasumi was right. But he was still angry.

"Wait a second," Kasumi said. "How did you know about the baby in the first place? Did Miroku tell you, too?!"

Sango cut in between the two and neatly arranged the blankets in the basinet. She explained, "Actually, I did. If you're going to be mad at anyone about this, be mad at me. I just thought your dad should know."

Kasumi shrugged. She thanked Sango in her head for saying it so that she wouldn't have to worry about feeling the consequences.

Just then another one of Koga's men came in. His name was Hakkaku. He had another wolf skin, but seemed to be a pillow.

"Here's a pillow for the little tyke. We stuffed it with some feathers we had from some Harpies," he said. He then took notice to Kasumi. After setting the pillow at the headboard, he greeted her.

Kasumi replied, "What's up, Hakkaku?"

Hakkaku shrugged. "Nothing really. Except the clan is really excited for Koga's pup. Oh, and yours, of course."

Kasumi got a saddened expression across her features. She looked down at the basniet and realized something: she couldn't stay in this era with her baby.

"You guys," she began, "I don't think I'll be able to stay here with the baby."

Sango replied, "But you don't have to. You can come visit."

"No, I mean, I'm really worried. The dreams won't stop. Sure Kaede and Miroku warded off the evil, but the realism is still there," said Kasumi.

Miroku said, "You mean... you're leaving for good?"

Kasumi sighed. "Until I know Naraku is dead, I won't be able to let my baby stay."

"Will you at least give birth to the baby here so I can see him?" a familiar voice said.

Kasumi looked back and saw Koga. He must have gotten word that she was there.

"Now that, I can do," she replied; nodding.

"Good..." Koga said and hugged her briefly.

Inuyasha wretched on the inside. He wanted to pry Koga away from his daughter as soon as possible. But luckily, Kasumi decided to head back to her own time.

This would be the last time she'd see Sango, Miroku, Koga, and the others until the baby's birth. Inuyasha could still visit her any time he wanted since he was able to go through the bone-eater's well.

Back at his fortress, Naraku was helpless. Since he was half-demon, his body wasn't totally functional at the moment. Demons of all kinds surrounded him for safety.

Kanna stood in front of him. She held a mirror. Naraku was able to see what was going on. He made sure his guards informed him of Kasumi's labor and birthing so it could be the right time to kidnap her son. Naraku gave a brief chuckle, and a grin, as his plan made an image in his mind. Kasumi would see sooner than she thinks, the result of her realistic dreams.
