You must want babies because I got reviews including one new reviewer. Thank you.
Well now, I can drag out Kurama's pregnancy for maybe three more months (that would be at least two chapters) or you guys can send lots of reviews voting for a baby as soon as the next chapter. I leave it up to your typing fingers (that means review).
Standard disclaimer: I do not own YuYu Hakusho.

Chapter 16
"Nana, Papa, did you hear? Our baby's here!"Kurama laughed as Hiro jumped off Kuronue and ran to the bedroom. Kuronue helped Kurama up and they followed their grandson.
Entering the bedroom they saw Yokuro had his arm around Shina as they showed Hiro his new sibling. "Come see my new sister Nana. Look Papa, she has wings just like yours only they're itty bitty."
Kurama moved to sit on the bed with Kuronue right behind her. The baby in Shina's arms had fuzzy black hair and just as Hiro had said, a tiny set of black wings. Her eyes when she opened them however were the gray eyes of a Youko kit. One look from Kurama and Shina passed her the infant. "Shina, she's beautiful. Kuro-Darling, this is what your daughter Mailyn must have looked like as baby. Oh Kuro, I wish…"
"Shhh my Foxie-Kitten. No regrets, remember. Let's just love this little one like we would have loved Mailyn if we'd had the chance." Kuronue gently kissed his mate then his new granddaughter.
The eyes Kurama turned to Shina and Yokuro were slightly misty. "Okay you two, the moment has finally arrived to tell us your secret. What's her name?"
They both smiled before Yokuro spoke. "Since we named Hiro after our fathers, we thought it only appropriate that we name our daughter after our mothers. Mom, you are the best mother I could have ever asked for but my Ma was a part of my life too. We took Kurama and Mailyn and named her Kuryn."
Kurama looked questioningly at Shina. "Mama, I know what you're thinking. I hope it won't upset Grandma Seiko that we didn't include Toshi but I never even knew her. My Foxie-Mama and Mama-Kitten will always be my real mother."
There were real tears in Kurama's eyes as she snuggled the baby in her arms. "Welcome to the family little Kuryn."
Kuronue kissed her tears away. "No more crying Baby. Hiei wants to come see the baby and he's already upset about those demons. If your crying he'll think I'm not taking care of you."
"My Love, you take wonderful care of me and even Hiei can't say you don't." Kurama used her free hand to pull him down for a passionate kiss before Hiei appeared.
Kurama took a moment to welcome Hiei with a passionate kiss. "Kuryn this is Papa Hiei. Isn't she beautiful Koibito? Now I want our baby to come even more."
Hiei ran his fingers across Kuryn's soft cheek before moving to kiss Shina's cheek. "You make beautiful babies Little Fox. Her name is a perfect way to honor my Foxie-Kitten and Mailyn."
Yokuro laughed. "Sorry Mom. We were trying to get Shuuichi in there too but it was just too hard. By the way, how are you guys coming with names for your little one?"
Kurama grinned at them. "You two kept it a secret so we thought we'd do the same."
Hiei smirked. "Hn. Don't let her fool you. We might have finally agreed on a boy's name but if it's a girl we might just call her Baby Girl because we're totally stumped."
Hiei dodged as Kurama playfully slapped at him. "That's not true. I've thought of plenty of names for our daughter, you and Kuro just didn't like any of them."
Snatching her hand in his Hiei kissed it. "Sweetheart, you can name her anything you want so long as it's none of the names you've already told us."
He kissed her pouting lips before moving to the door. "I hope you're ready for company Little Fox. The family just got here."
Everyone laughed at the anxious faces that greeted them when Hiei opened the bedroom door. Keiko, Boton and Yuki pushed passed their mates as they rushed in. Kurama handed the baby back to Shina so she could show off her new daughter.
Hiei and Kurama moved back to speak with their former teammates as the girls oh-ed and ah-ed over the baby.
Yusuke chuckled as Kurama waddled to his side. "Kurama you're so big you waddle. I thought for sure you'd pop first."
Kurama smiled and rubbed her tummy, in too good of a mood to be offended. "From your lips to this kit's ears. I am more than ready for our baby to be born."
Kuwabara stared in awe. "Urameshi, you've got to be the luckiest son of a gun. You just insulted Kurama big timeand you're still breathing."
"Fool! My Fox wouldn't start a fight with our new granddaughter across the room, not to mention Hiro." Hiei pulled Kurama's forelocks to bring her down for a kiss before plucking Hiro from the bed. "Come on guys. Let's leave the females alone."
Kurama hesitated as she watched her friends and Yokuro quickly kiss Shina and Kuryn before leaving. Hiei quickly determined what had caused his mate's distress. "Sweetheart, whichever choice you make will be the right one."
Kurama blushed. "Thank you Fire-Fly. I was afraid it would be weird if I stayed with the girls but I'm only going to be female a few more months. Besides I want to stay with Kuryn a little longer."
He waited, knowing something else was bothering her. "Hiei, do you think the guys will accept me as a male again when this is all over?"
Before Hiei could respond Yusuke poked his head back in the room. "Hey Hiei, Kurama aren't you guys coming?"
Knowing she didn't need an answer Hiei turned to join the others. A grateful smile crossed Kurama's face when she heard his comment tothe guys "Kurama will join us later. Shina wants her to help with Kuryn right now."
Moving back to the bed Kurama held out her arms. "Alright ladies, hand over my granddaughter, it's my turn."
