Sorry, sorry it took so long. Here you go, another chap of Allergic Reaction.
Chap: a foot?
He was on the man in an instant. "Get your hands off of her," he snarled.
The man's eyes went huge in fright, but he still spoke clearly. "Inuyasha- sama, you have to make her listen!"
"I don't have to do anything for the man who touches her like that!" he dragged the man outside the hut, holding onto him with one arm before calling out to Kagome. "What do you want me to do with him?!"
"Keep him outside for a while," she called back. "I have to get things straightened out in here before he can come back in."
Some other men of the village had heard the commotion and gathered around the two men. One of them spoke, "Sei, its Harumi's time?
"Yes, it is. She"-he pointed to the other girl that could be sent rhough the window—"went to get Kagome-sama to help with the birth. But he"—the man jerked his arm that Inuyasha still wouldn't let go of—"kicked me out of the house."
The old man smiled and nodded to Inuyasha. "Well done, my lord."
Inuyasha was a little floored. "Huh?"
"A husband should never see his wife giving birth like that." The other men who were fathers nodded in agreement. Another said, "Yes, I remember when Kisa had her first baby. I heard her using language some soldiers don't know. She was ready to kill me for getting her pregnant."
"Oh, gods, yes," said another. "My wife, I swear, when she had pains, her grip got so strong she snapped one of the house beams in half. I was just happy it wasn't my arm."
A scream from inside made everyone pause. Inuyasha's ears were flat against his head. That woman was loud! The father-to-be noticed it, "What are they saying?!"
"Shut up, you loud-mouth, I'm trying to listen," he snapped. He cocked an ear forward, but didn't understand what Kagome was saying. Footsteps made him step back from the door.
The girl from before came out, looking frightened. "Inuyasha-sama, Kagome- sama wants to see you." Inuyasha frowned, trying to mask his apprehension. He'd never been around women in labor before.
"Shinju, what is going on?" Sei asked. "What is happening in there?"
Shinju swallowed before saying, "The baby hasn't turned yet." Everyone gasped, except Inuyasha. "So what's that mean?" He asked.
"The baby won't come. It could die in there, or even kill them both. My lord, please," Shinju put her arm on the hanyou's sleeve, "please help Kagome–sama with my sister."
Inuyasha shrugged her off, but walked in the hut. And immediately walked back out, blushing slightly at forgetting her bag. He grabbed it and walked back in.
Sei started to pray, along with Shinju and some of the other people of the village.

Inuyasha couldn't believe his ears. "You want me to what?"
"Help me," she hissed quietly. "I've never delivered a baby before."
"And yet you came to help anyway?"
"What else could I do?! I know what to do in theory, but I need your help."
He rolled his eyes, "What else is new?"
"Inuyasha!"
"What do you need me to do?"
"First off, get her husband, Sei, right?" He nodded. "Get Sei to go get up some water and make a fire outside so he can boil it."
"What will that be for?"
"To keep him busy," Kagome said, pulling out supplies form the kit. "He needs to get his mind off things right now."
"With all those villagers out there, he won't be busy for long."
"Then get them to look for some stuff."
"What stuff?"
"I don't know! Anything! Just keep them all busy so he won't start panicking." Kagome helped Harumi to sit more comfortably as Inuyasha went out.
He came back ten minutes later. Kagome looked up at him, "So, how'd it go?"
"A lot better than I thought," he said with some surprise. "I thought they'd all see through it and it wouldn't work, but they're all going pell- mell everywhere to get all that crap I said we needed."
"I'm afraid to ask. Hand me my sleeping bag, would you, Inuyasha?"
"Sure," he did as she asked.
"Alright, now, Harumi? We're going to move you onto this bedding okay? Don't worry, you wont' have to walk," she looked up at him, "Inuyasha?"
"Yeah?"
"Pick her up, be really gentle now"—
"Oh, I see what you're doing"—they maneuvered the girl to the roll. Harumi whispered her thanks to them both. "Both of you are so kind to help me now."
"Don't mention it," Kagome said cheerfully. "Okay, Inuyasha?"
"Yeah?" He stared as Kagome started to check to see how far Harumi had gone since her last contraction.
"Get me some gloves, those blue plastic ones for me, okay?"
He put them on her. "What are you going to do?"
"Well, I have to find out just how this little guys turned," she said with false bravado. "Shouldn't be too hard." She reached in—
Inuyasha almost lost his lunch—
Kagome's eyes went huge. "I've got a foot!"

gross, I know, but the look on inu's face is more than worth it. Hope you like it, please review!!
