Chapter 5

Who's at the door?

The older Kagome smiled at the teens. Inuyasha was in a state of complete shock. I am going to mate Kagome? No way, that can't be right. I'm just a half-breed. This must be a mistake. Kagome can't be my…my… Inuyasha's world faded to black.

Inuyasha slowly opened his eyes to stare at a white ceiling.

"What the hell happened to me?" he whispered to himself. Then a thought came to his mind. "Kagome!" He sat up fast. Too fast, because his head started to hurt.

"Be careful baka. You hit your head on the coffee table when you fainted." An older version of himself looked back at him.

"Where's Kagome." It was a statement. Not a question.

"With my mate in our room unpacking boxes. Before you see her I would like to talk to you. Alone."

"Keh, what about."

"Your future. Number one: Stop thinking you are not good enough for Kagome. She loves you danmit and when you finally tell her you love her you'll both be a lot happier."

"Wait, are you saying that Kagome lo-,"

"Number two: Kikyo doesn't love you. She just wants you to go to hell with her. Think about it, did she love you for you? No, she wanted to use you and the jewel to become a normal person."

"Hey, that-,"

"Number three: Don't kill the monk. Miroku eventually gets better and takes Taya away every so often with Sango so you and Kagome can be alone to…well, you know."

"You mean me and Kagome-,"

"That's normally what mates do. Now number four: Move to this era with Kagome. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't visit the past as often as possible. And finally number five: Stop trying to kill Shesshomaru."

"WHAT!"

"After Kagome gives birth to Taya, he will accept you as one of his pack. He will act more like a brother."

"Yeah, right. Shesshomaru would rather me dead!"

"But his opinion will change."

Inuyasha closed his eyes. This is too strange. But I can't say I won't like this future.

"If you'll excuse me, class starts in a few minutes." Inuyasha opened his eyes and looked at the man with a confused expression. "We opened a dojo. I teach fighting techniques. I had to support my mate in this world somehow, so I used the skills I had. Didn't you see the building out back?"

Inuyasha thought back to when he was outside. Yes, there was a long building with a few windows and a large square next to it that was made of cement. "Can I see this 'class'?" he asked.

"Of course." The two walked out side and to the dojo in silence.


"So this is your house?" Kagome asked as she walked up the stairs behind the woman who was her future self.

"Yes. We moved in a day ago. We were staying in feudal Japan most of the time, but we realized we couldn't rely on mom for support forever." They walked into a room with a large bed, two dressers, a closet and a few boxes. Kagome was a little nervous. It had taken a half hour of convincing to get her away from the unconscious Inuyasha. "Will you help me unpack these boxes?"

"Oh, sure."

Kagome opened a box and quickly shut it again. "Is something wrong?" the older Kagome asked her while she set up a clock.

"Umm…" Kagome couldn't find the words. She had just stumbled onto a bow filled with corsets, thongs and other 'unmentionables' couples used during you know what! "This box has…uhhh…"

"Oh. Oh! Sorry!" the older Kagome cringed and took the box. "That must have been weird seeing that kind of thing. I mean your only eighteen, right?"

"Uh, yeah." Actually, it's not that big a deal. I'm an adult now so it's okay for me to aghh! What am I thinking? (a/n: It has been three years since Kagome first fell down the well and 4 months since they defeated Naraku. Just for your information ☺)

"Sooo…you and Inuyasha?" Kagome asked. How could she not be curious after discovering…that?

"Yes. Five years ago, we got married."

"So that means your 23. How does it happen?"

The future Kagome sat on the bed and gestured for her younger self to sit next to her.

"Well, after we got back to feudal Japan, we find that everyone thought we were dead and Sango and Miroku married and with twins. I always wish I could have been there, but you can't change the past. A few days after we returned, Kikyo came to the village to find I was alive. She was furious. I don't really want to tell you much about that. It wasn't a great experience."

"I understand."

"So, after that, Inuyasha and I became closer. Then one night, about six months after the Kikyo thing, he kissed me and told me he loved me. And I told him the same."

"Wow. It sounds fantastic. Then what happened?" Kagome had great Interest in this. After all, it was her future.

"Well, 2 months later, I found out I was pregnant. But I didn't tell Inuyasha. I was so scared. What if he didn't want it? But then a youkai attacked the village and I got hurt because Inuyasha got there late. He was visiting with Shesshomaru about something. I lost a lot of blood and in a stage of panic a began sobbing and I said 'my baby is dead!' Inuyasha of course heard me and I had to tell him what happened. He was so angry that I didn't think he would be happy for us. But we really didn't have to worry about it because it was probably dead right? Wrong. A few days later I was hit by morning sickness and I went to the doctor and it was confirmed: the baby survived. Inuyasha was extremely excited. So a week later, we got married.

"Then I gave birth to a little girl, my Taya, a few months later. Eventually, when Taya turned two, Inuyasha brought up the fact that we needed to decide where we would live permanently. Inuyasha thought it would be safer for Taya if we raised her in my time, but I wanted her know of both worlds. So we lived in the past until Inuyasha thought of a way to support us. He opened the dojo and then we worked there and lived at the shrine and with Sango and Miroku until we could build this small house for us to live in. And here we are." The woman smiled proudly describing the past five years, leaving out most of the details so there would be a few surprises.

"Wow. What about Kikyo? Does Inuyasha ever regret not choosing her?" Kagome had to ask.

"I don't think so. I once asked him and he got depressed and angry with me. When he asked me if I had any regrets, I told him I didn't and he told me he didn't either. I was so happy. Oh, let me tell you about this one time when Inuyasha-,"

DING, DONG!

The doorbell interrupted the older Kagome.

"I wonder who that could be." She got up and walked down stairs and opened the door. "Hojo? What are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be in prison?" She didn't get a response. Kagome heard a large crash and ran down the stairs, hoping that her future wouldn't be cut short.


So what do you think? Let me know by using that little button over there. You see it? Good.
