Review Responses: Hope everyone is enjoying this story, read and review to give me input. Any flames will be used to fuel the fire I'm going to torture Jaken with, don't worry; Sesshomaru gave me permission to torture the little toad. O_~
chrisy12: I'm glad you liked Sango using Mirouku's line.
Story Weaver1: Glad you liked Inuyasha's mental problems, they'll show up again later. There's a little more Inu/Kag fluff in this chapter, so enjoy.

Inuyasha's head
Inuyasha pulled his face out of the dirt and punted Chibi-Inu's ball as hard as he could. He then turned back to the two paths and tried to make up his mind. ::Let's see, Kikyo: Good: hates Naraku, no emotions, Bad: wants to spend rest of eternity in Hell, wants me human, tried to kill me, gave the Shikon Jewel shard to Naraku, I don't know if she really loves me. Kagome: Good: likes me as a hanyou, is a hanyou, doesn't want to kill me unless she's in heat, I know that she is in with me. Bad: female hanyou in heat, emotional, relationship with Koga, relationship with Hojo. I don't know which of them I should choose::
Shippo and an unconscious Inuyasha
Shippo was getting bored. Inuyasha had been asleep for two days already and Shippo had already explored the whole area nearby so he had nothing to do except poke Inuyasha with a stick. Inuyasha slept on, and Shippo decided to see if Kagome had anything he could eat in her backpack. Looking around to make sure his mom wasn't near by, Shippo climbed into the backpack and started digging through it. He found a strange black tube that had a small cap on it and smelled like ink. Shippo scrambled out of the backpack with a huge grin on his face and walked over to Inuyasha. "Time for me to put on your makeup," said Shippo with a chuckle as he started drawing whatever came to his mind on Inuyasha's face.
Kagome and Toto-sai
Outside of Toto-sai's cave, Kagome was practicing with her new bow while the smith watched. The bow boosted Kagome's already powerful miko powers, making her arrows even more powerful, and more accurate. "You're doing well Kagome, you have completely mastered your bow in half the time I expected," said Toto-sai. Just then a scream of "HAAAALLLLLPPPPP Kagome! Inuyasha is trying to kill me!" followed by a terrified Shippo running out of Toto-sai's cave with an angry Inuyasha chasing after him. Shippo ran to Kagome and actually scrambled into her shirt before she could do anything, clinging to her while he shivered in terror. "Get out of there you little coward," growled Inuyasha, "and apologize for what you did to my face." Kagome took one look at the scribbles on Inuyasha's face and tried not to burst out laughing at the funny sight, but her tail started wagging so hard that Inuyasha could tell she was extremely amused. "YOU THINK THIS IS FUNNY BITCH?" He roared, causing Kagome's ears to flatten down to protect them from his loud voice. Kagome glared at Inuyasha and yelled "Osuwari". She then pulled Shippo out of her shirt by his tail and held is face in front of hers so they were touching noses.
"Shippo, I've told you before to stop playing tricks on Inuyasha. It's not fair that you always do such mean things to him. Save your pranks for youkai that want to eat you." Shippo looked at the ground, a small blush coming on to his face, "Yes, Oka-san. I'm sorry Inuyasha," murmured Shippo. Kagome sighed and turned his face to hers again. "I'm glad you're sorry, but I'm afraid that you will just forget this if I don't give you a reminder. Now this is going to hurt me more than it will hurt you Shippo." After saying that, Kagome swiftly sat down on a rock and had Shippo on her knee and gave him a swift smack that hurt like crazy but was louder than it felt. She then immediately hugged the sobbing kit to her chest, stroking his hair and tail. "I hope you remember this Shippo, I didn't like having to do this any more than you liked it," she said as she dried his tears. Shippo sniffed and climbed off of Kagome and turned to Inuyasha. "Do you forgive me Inuyasha?" he chocked out.
Inuyasha looked at the little kitsune and remembered the feelings he had gone through when his parents had died. He had been really upset since he was so little, and he had looked at Sesshomaru as a surrogate father and how devastated he had been when his half brother abandoned him. The memory of these feelings gave him a good idea of what Shippo was going through and he suddenly scooped Shippo up in a hug "It's okay, pup, I understand. You've been missing your father and with Naraku gone, you must have thought that your adopted family would disappear." Shippo nodded, amazed that the usually insensitive Inuyasha was talking like this. "Well you don't have to worry, even if Kagome was unable to come back to this time, Mirouku, Sango, and I would take care of you." Shippo's eyes widened at this as he hugged Inuyasha back managing to choke out around the happy sobs coming from his throat, "Otou-sama, Oka-sama," as Kagome knelt down and hugged the two of them close, a contented low growl coming forth from her to indicate her happiness.
Inuyasha smiled at Kagome over Shippo's head and realized that he had made up his mind without even knowing it. "Kagome?" he asked, "Will you be my mate?" The look of utter joy that came to her face made him feel like he could take on Naraku alone and defeat him with one punch. Kagome hugged Inuyasha tighter, practically yelling "YES YES YES!" loud enough to start an avalanche before kissing him with a passion that conveyed all her love for him. As they broke apart from Shippo's desperate struggles not to be crushed between them, Kagome realized that they both seemed to be glowing with love and happiness. Inuyasha suddenly scooped Kagome up bridal style and said to Shippo, "We'll be back in the morning, be good, listen to Myoga and Toto-sai, and don't worry." before taking off into the forest. Shippo immediately took off after them, yelling for them to wait for him.
Mirouku and Sango
"Mirouku, did you hear what sounded like Kagome yelling yes a moment ago?" asked Sango. The monk nodded from his place at the fire. Just then a red and white blur raced past their campsite and on into the forest. Mirouku blinked and turned to Sango saying, "I think that was Inuyasha carrying Kagome," but anything else he had to say was interrupted by the sound of "Oka Otou wait for me!" and Shippo running into the clearing. Sango grabbed the kitsune so he didn't get past her and asked, "What is going on Shippo? Why were you calling for your parents?" Shippo started to jump up and down as he explained about Inuyasha asking Kagome to be his mate and Kagome's agreement. Mirouku looked at the young kitsune and smiled, "I believe your parents want some time to themselves tonight Shippo, trust me, you don't want to bother them at times like this." Sango gave Mirouku a light smack saying, "He's actually right Shippo, they'll be back in the morning, so just stay here with us tonight. Now, here's the story of how Mirouku and Kilala saved me from an Oni and his bandits..." Shippo snuggled up on her lap as she told the story and after it was done, he curled up with a transformed Kilala to sleep. Mirouku and Sango fell asleep soon after, though the monk sported a new lump and handprint on his face.
Later in the night, two voices could be heard howling together.
