Author: Hi, yeah I told you I update quick like I said I'm bad at cliff hangers. At this moment I would like to take the time to thank the two people who have read and reviewed every chapter... thanks Yuki Haitani my best bud in the world!!! And thank you Ingra of Mordor you both are wonderful for sticking with me! I hope I get more reviewers.

Oh and I would like to clear a couple of things up before I continue, One I know I put this down as tragedy and some of you might be thinking...there's no tragedy in here. Well there will be...but I don't want to give it away although some of you might have already guessed what's going to happen.

And lastly, I also said that they would have demon children or something or other and that Naraku is a Hanyou and she is a human and that they couldn't have demon babies well...you'll see how it comes together soon enough. That's it, I hope you enjoy this chapter...I'm sorry but, this chapter wont be a lemon...there will be soon though don't worry.


Naraku stepped into the castle still holding Ame in his arms bringing her to her room and laid her down on the bed/mat. She didn't know what to do, she thought he wanted to have sex with her and she couldn't decide if she wanted it yet or not. Thoughts of No started to cover her mind...no, she wasn't ready for this...not yet. She was surprised that Naraku just stared at her and stood next to the bed. Her breathing started to slow down and her heart started to pump faster. Naraku smirked;

"It's getting cold out there; I think you should stay inside for a while." with that, he left the room. Ame's heart rate went back to normal as did her breathing; she didn't leave her room for the rest of the day.

The next day, as was any, was filled with boredom, Naraku didn't go out much anymore because he didn't feel like slaughtering villages much, and Ame didn't go out at all...except to eat but Naraku didn't follow her much anymore because now he could trust her not to get in trouble. Ame stared out the window looking at the sheet of snow on the ground and the icicles that where stuck to the edge of the roof.

She thought she would die of boredom, at least when she was a waitress she had something to do, but not now. It was late January and she still didn't like the fact that she couldn't go outside and look around.

She laid her head against the wall and continued to watch the droplets fall from the icicles and the sound of the chilling winter wind rushing past her and occasionally hitting her ,which made her want to close the window. As she began to, she saw a white figure at the inside of the walls looking to get out, it was a baboon pelt the person was wearing which Ame could tell immediately was Naraku.

"What is he...?" she closed the window completely and quickly put her Japanese sandals (sorry guys I don't know what there called) on. She ran outside towards Naraku,

"Naraku!" she yelled running to him, Naraku just turned his head and stared at her. She eventually caught up with him and took a few seconds to catch her breath,

"Where...are...you going?" He looked down at her and made an uncanny smile,

"I'm going to get you some winter kimonos." Ames eyes widened a bit but quickly went back to their normal size; she didn't expect that answer.

"You are?" Naraku gave her a look as if saying 'that was a stupid question',

"Well, you only have two pairs of kimonos and there not right for weather like this, so yes, I am getting you some winter kimonos." She made a small smile, still not able to believe Naraku was doing this for her.

"Well, would you like me to come with you?" he turned his face away from her and kept walking.

"That won't be necessary."

Ame sat in her room again, looking outside for Naraku. She was very happy when he jumped over the wall and walked inside the Tachi (small castle).She heard his footsteps down the hall coming closer and soon saw him at her door way and he entered.

"Here are the kimonos" he set them down next to her bed and she searched through every single one looking at them. When she didn't say anything about them Naraku decided to speak,

"So, do you like them?" She lifted up her head looking at him with a warm smile on her face.

"Yes there very lovely, but there all very high class, how could you afford them?" he made a low sexy chuckle in response,"My kawaii, I did not pay for them... I took them." She frowned and shook her head then let out a deep sigh.

"Naraku, why must you always take things by force; did these belong to anyone?"

"No, I took them from a market place...no one was buying them, I did that person a favor by taking them." She looked at a very beautiful kimono with gold threads that made up a crane pattern with many other layers topping the kimono, the material was very soft. She noticed he also got her some summer yukatas as well. Ame thought that even though he shouldn't have stolen them, it was sweet for him to get her some new outfits.

"Thank you, it was very kind for you to get me some new outfits, but didn't you get any for yourself?"

"I have many wardrobes in my room already." Ame took out some from the bottom and noticed they were quite large for her size.

"Why did you get ones that were so large?" Naraku gently grabbed a hold of her small smooth hand that was holding on to the kimono and started massaging it with his thumb.

"Those are for when you carry children." Her hand let go of the kimono, but she was not startled, she wasn't worried about the pregnancy anymore; she just simply wasn't quite ready. He bent down and started to kiss her fingers gently, which gave her a tingling sensation in the pit of her stomach.

"So, we're having more than one?"

"Of course, we will have as many as we can...you shall be quite busy."

"...I'm not going to be looking forward to that..."

Then, he lifted his head up and gave her a soft kiss on her lips.

"Soon enough..." he ran his fingers through her soft smooth hair.

He started to walk outside the door when he turned around,

"I'm going to bathe, would you like to join me?" he smirked and she lightly blushed,

"No... that's all right"

"Suit yourself." He left the room with his hair gracefully flowing behind him.

It soon became early February very quickly, one day in particular was beautiful so, of course, Ame went outside to enjoy the fresh air and sunlight while Naraku followed her. She sat under a tall oak tree (do they even have oak trees in Japan? well they do now) with Naraku next to her.

"It's good to walk around, I can't stand to be in a house for to long." Ame said as she looked at the rough landscape.He made a small smile telling her that he was listening even though he had his head turned away. Naraku frowned and started looking around listening attentively for any sound. Ame looked puzzled.

"Naraku, what's wrong?" right when she said that, Naraku pushed Ame off the hill and he himself, jumped down it.

"Wha-Naraku?" he looked over at the spot he did before not even looking at Ame, he made an evil smile.

"It seems we have a visitor." A huge blast of light past by right where they sat under the tree, when the light past, the tree was nothing but bark. Naraku let go of Ame and stood up, they saw a Youkai that looked like a centipede but a thousand times larger and more deadly. It slithered onto the hill top

"Ha ha ha, it seems I have found good prey." The demon screeched, Naraku smiled but didn't say a word. The demon ran towards Naraku barely missing him and Ame.
"Go," Naraku turned towards Ame who looked panicky,"But what about you?!"

"I'll be fine, just go, unless you want to become fodder for this overgrown insect." She nodded and ran while looking back at him the whole time. The centipede came back and managed to give Naraku a big gash on his arm which quickly resealed. Naraku waited for the centipede to come back around, ready for its next attack then the centipede laughed and a huge glowing light like before started to grow in his mouth. It released the light , a giant roar was heard as the power ripped through the earth and towards the unexpected Hanyou. When it hit Naraku the light shown brighter then before and formed into a giant ball of energy the roar made it impossible to hear any sound of yelling or screaming.

ZZZZZZZTTTTTT

The energy amazingly flew right back at the centipede making a loud cracking sound , the light disappeared and the centipede was badly crippled. Naraku had a few gashes here and there but seemed to be all right. He walked over to the withered demon that amazingly got enough strength to move.

"Lord Kurayami will hear of this, and he will make you pay!"

The centipede ran away into the darkness of the woods, Naraku stood at that spot for a couple of minutes peering into the darkness. Then, Ame ran out of the woods and too his side,

"Naraku, are you okay?" she looked at his cuts and the wounds amazingly resealed.

"I'm fine I have handled worse, let us go home." To his surprise at that moment, Ame embraced him in a tight hug.

"I was scared...it took all of my will power when you got hit by that attack to not run out and try to help in any way possible." Ame buried her face in his chest; he looked down and showed a very little sign of emotion, she continued.

"You're all that I have, if I lost you...I don't know what I would do I ...would be alone again." A small tear fell down Ame's cheek and onto Naraku's outfit he, for once in his entire life, felt sorry for her...her a mere human, and he couldn't understand why. All he could do in response was hold her long and hard he wanted her to know in that way, that he wouldn't leave her, that he would protect her. For once in his life, Naraku felt compassion for someone. A simple smile crossed his face.

"she is about ready"
