A/N: K guys, this it the last chapter. It's short, sweet, and to the point. It's just a quick continuation of the story. Hope it's not too disappointing for you all. K, nuff of me blubbering on, here you go…
Disclaimer: Tsk, tsk, and you thought I owned these characters…shame on you !!
Chapter 5: Continuation
"And that, my two children, are the story of your godparents. Now be off with you and stay out of trouble!" Miroku said, laughing as he stood up. The monk walked over to the heavily pregnant woman sitting in the middle of the room. Sango looked up and smiled a warm welcome at her husband as she stirred the ramen for their dinner.
The two small children raced towards their favorite spot, the place where it all began. As they reached the god-tree, they saw that their brother was already there, placing flowers around the small shrine that had been erected 10 years ago.
"Shippo-sama, Shippo-sama, Daddy just told us the story again!" young Kagome said, jumping up and down excitedly, her chestnut hair flying freely in the wind. Shippo smiled at his two younger siblings and said, "Don't you two ever get tired of hearing that story? You must have heard it only about three thousand times now."
"Ah, but Shippo-sama, it's always new when someone else tells it. Plus it never gets old. Will you tell it to us again, Shippo-sama? Kaede-sama can't tell us again until tomorrow," pleaded Kagome's twin brother, Inuyasha, whose jet-black hair was falling out of its short ponytail.
Shippo looked at his brother and sister who peered up at him with the most innocent expressions they could muster. "Feh!" Shippo snorted. "All right, but you'll have to sit down and be quiet."
"YEAH!!" the two five-year old children yelled, jumping up and down before falling over each other in their hurry to get the best spot next to the tree.
As Shippo sat down in front of the sacred tree, he felt a light breeze play with his long ponytail that hung down to his waist and thought he heard laughter in the wind. He looked down at the two young ones in front of him, eagerly awaiting the story that lived on in his heart. Smiling to himself, he began. "Once there was a stubborn, mean hanyou who was pinned to an old sacred tree for fifty years. But then a young maiden from the future came and set him free, and they embarked on a long and adventurous journey together where they met a perverted monk, a young demon-slayer, and a heroic young kitsune who protected them all with his impressive fox-magic…"
At this, Shippo felt something bop him on his head and could have sworn he heard someone yell, "SIT, BOY!" Feeling the ground shake around the trio, Shippo laughed to himself and continued with the story…
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on…
