The Inu's Child
By: SGS
"Suteinu. My little Suteinu." Kagome said softly as she held her newborn baby boy. He was so pretty, so perfect. He had black hair like his mother and amber eyes like his father, the only thing that made him anything but normal was his tiny dogs tail. That's right, her hansom, perfect son had a tail like a puppy! She handed her son over to her mother and lay back in the bed. He was so beautiful, just like his father. The ringing of the telephone aroused her from her thoughts.
"Kagome." He grandfather's voice sounded form the door way. "Do you feel up to talking on the phone?" She nodded her head. And her grandfather brought her the phone as she propped herself against the pillows.
"Hello? Kagome! Is that you?" I shrill voice rang out.
"Hello Yuka." Kagome replied calmly.
"Kagome what's going on? Your grandfather said you were out of school because you were pregnet. But we didn't believe him." God, the one time he's telling the truth and they don't believe him. "So come on Kagome, spill."
"Yuka, if it's all the same to you I'd rather not. I don't want to talk about it." She said tiredly.
"We thought it was something like that. Well whatever it is we hope you get better soon." And with that she hung up.
Kagome put the phone aside and lay back again. She hatred this, she hated having to lie to her friends. She hated Inuyasha not getting to see his son. But most of all she hated the world, because she knew what would happen if anyone out side their family found out about this. She would be looked down upon for being an unwed teenage mother and the moment they found out her baby had a tail they'd take him away from her and do all sorts of horrid test on him. He'd become some freakish science experiment.
She began to cry softly. Why was this world so unfair? All she knew was she had to protect her baby. My poor Suteinu, why will he have to endure this?
"Kagome." Her mother was standing in the door holding a crying Suteinu. Kagome knew instantly what was wrong and took the crying baby form her mother and began to nurse. She looked down at her sweet little boy.
"You'll be strong, won't you Suteinu? Just like you're daddy." She kissed his forehead tenderly. "I know you will. You are one-forth demon after all."
Meanwhile
"Inuyasha, if you're so worried then just go see her for crying out loud!" Mirkou said angrily. "Quit moping around like a puppy someone's kicked."
"I can't do that!" He said. "Not after the way I treated her. I abandoned her when she need me, all because of my stupid pride and stupid fear."
"Well it's good you admit what you've done to her, but I still think you should go see her."
"How would you know?" He growled.
"I have a four month pregent wife in the next room. And soon I'll have my first child on the way." Inuyasha just glared at him. "Sorry just trying to help." Latter, after Inuyasha had left, Songo came out and sat in his lap.
"So is he going to see her?"
"I think he is."
"Good."
Note: Suteinu means stray dog.
