Story: Kagome Shot

Chapter 11: Revelations

Authors note:

I don't own Inuyasha or any of the Characters, and I probably can't spell half their names. So please forgive me. This story takes place shortly after the 2nd movie.

You know, this is going to be hard, I haven't really planned out exactly what all comes past this point…so guys….be ready for anything!

………….

"Inuyasha, I, I just wanted to thank you for coming for me. Listen, I'm" tears were starting to well up in her eyes, she was terrified, and he could smell the fear. "so sorry, I know I lost it, I just know I did, I tried to keep it safe, but I couldn't. Please forgive me."

She thinks I care about her loosing the shards at a time like this…how horrible have I been to make her fear me so…"Kagome, I don't care about the shards, Im just so happy that you are OK, I'm happy that I get to have a family with you."

How did he know? He could smell it dummy! "Your not mad then?"

"No, I'm going to be a father, how could I be mad at anything you did, you're my center, even more so now then ever before. I promise to never be mad at you again."

She stared at him dumbfounded "You mean the child's not dead?"

"No, the doctor just said it was fine yesterday, why didn't you tell me sooner?"

"I didn't know for sure, I didn't want to trouble you with anything." The young mother to be reached up and hugged him when a new worry crossed her face "How am I going to tell mom?"

"I think she will understand." Inuyasha spoke as his ears detected a similar conversation just outside Kagome's room.

:outside the room with Mrs. Higurashi and the Doctor:

"You wanted to speak with me about something?"

"Ah yes, its about your daughter. When I ran the tests I was surprised by what I saw. The anti-bodies that girl carries with her are unlike anything I have ever seen. I don't really think there is anything her body could not withstand. There are remeantnets of serious injuryies all throughout her body, internal organs bruised, damaged, ripped, torn, I don't see how she could have survived, but she did, it is as if all the damage was done a month ago. What I am getting at is your daughter is incredibly strong, so is that guy with her. And, well, it seems she is pregnant with his child."

"My baby, pregnant…" Mrs. Higurashi, sat down, digesting all this information. All the internal damage being repaired, that makes sense, I think, from what grandpa told me a demon transfers his power to his mate, so Inuyasha saved her I suppose by getting her pregnant…but still, she is so young… "Well, what can we say about young love…was the baby hurt during the kidnapping?"

"No, it appears to be just fine, I really am rather amazed at your daughter's recovery and physic. She is quite strong. Remarkably so. I would be proud if I were you Mrs. Higurashi."

Tears were starting to well up in her eyes "I am proud of my daughter, I am also worried for her, she is so young, and the father, well, he obviously isn't from around here. I think she draws her strength from him." The tears quickly dissipated and alarm set in "Does he even know?" Oh what will Inuyasha say, he always seems a bit flighty when emotion is concerned.

"Oh I wouldn't worry about that kid, he is tough, and seems to me he is owning up to his responsibility just fine. I understand your worries, so let me ask you something, as a shrine keeper, how much do you know and believe about demon legends?" This is going to be tough, breaking it to her if she doesn't know. And, what if the girl doesn't know she is carrying a demon child?

What is he getting at, he is a doctor but, does he really know about the well? "Oh, many things are possible, and I know about a lot of demonic lore, but a good bit of it is not plausible in modern society."

She doesn't know, great…"Well, why don't we go to my office to discuss this."

The world renowned doctor led Mrs. Higuarshi down the hall and tried to formulate a way to explain away all of his scientific background and lead her to believe in fantasy. Little did he know she actually already knew.

Inuyasha heard all that was said outside and was a little disturbed about the doctor talking about demons. He figured it would all be alright just so long as the man took care of his Kagome. He could still smell the fear on her, but it had subsided. The gentle loving scent was back. He could almost feel her contentment in his own mind as he gently stroked her hand. She was dozing off again, but he was finding the silence quite amiable. The young hanyou had a lot of thinking to do. For one, Sesshomouru had left a tremendous clue about not only demons in this era, but also how to defeat Naraku. He knew of Kagome's situation, and yet he encouraged her to go into the final battle. That note, it told how to call Sesshomouru's aid, how to get the most out of Kagome's powers, it was an entire battle plan, ranging from where Kirara was most effective in battle, to how much antidote Miroku would need in order to render the dreaded poisonous insects useless. He was amazed at his brother's thoroughness in laying it all out, but he was distressed that it called for a pregnant Kagome to enter battle. She did it 500 years ago successfully, so he supposed she could do it in 4 months. It was a gamble, and he hoped he won. He had everything he wanted – a family, a place to belong, and love. He couldn't stand for it to be taken away now.

Down the hall the Doctor and Mrs. Higuarashi were both running around the truth, neither wishing to reveal to much too soon.
