"Sango, are you okay?" Miroku asked his pregnant wife. It had been almost a year since Inuyasha and Kagome disappeared down the well and in that time Sango and Miroku had gotten married and they were now expecting children. (A/N: I'm no-good with timelines, so bare with me people.)

"I, I think…ahh!" Sango cried out. "Shit! My water broke!"

"I'll get Kaede!" Miroku ran out of the hut. I can't believe it. I'm having a kid and Inuyasha and Kagome are not here. I hope they are alright. "Kaede! It's time!"

Tears welled up in the doctors eyes, but she contained them.

"Taya is your name dear?" she asked.

"Yup." Taya was still smiling, oblivious to anything other than getting to play with her mommy and soon to be born brother or sister. The doctor knelt down so she was at the same height as the little girl with the hat. I wonder why these two guys and this little girl are all wearing hats. Must be some religion thing or something.

"Why don't you go with Nurse Danny to the kids' room? We have coloring books and crayons to play with."

"Okay!" Taya ran down the hallway, followed by the nurse. The doctor turned back to the others and straightened up.

"I'll, uh, go with her." Kagome ran after Taya so the nurse could go back to doing his regular job.

"Now, the baby," the doctor continued, "I'm sorry Mr. Higurashi. The baby didn't survive the blood loss."

Inu had his fists so tight blood dripped form his hands. Inuyasha smelled it, but it went unnoticed by the doctor.

How could this happen? How could it be this way? I can't let it happen this way. I must find a way to change the future. Kagome will be crushed when she finds out. Inuyasha thought.

"I'm very sorry Mr. Higurashi, but there is more."

Inu looked up.

"What is it?" he asked. His voice quaked at the grief he felt.

"It's Kagome. She…"

"Push Sango! Ye need to be strong!"

"You can do it!" cheered a young village woman who was training to be a healer. Her name was Mayu.

"Speak for yourself! Why don't you try pushing something the size of a watermelon out of such a small opening!"

"Don't make me think about that!" Mayu cried.

"Mayu! Pay attention to this!"

"Oh, sorry Lady Kaede. What should I do?"

"Comfort Sango." The old miko answered.

"Come on Sango! You can do this! You must!" Mayu cheered again. "Lord Miroku will be so proud of you!"

"Oh for the love of god when will be freaking over!" Now guess who said that? Could it be the one in LABOR! I wish Kagome was here!

"Push!" Kaede and Mayu shouted again and soon there was silence in the area. Then baby cries filled the air.

"It's a boy!" Mayu exclaimed.

Men form the village patted Miroku on the back and congratulated him on his child.

"Sango!" Miroku called out her name as he ran into the hut.

"You…are…NEVER…touching me…EVER AGAIN!" Sango said between breaths. This earned a chuckle form everyone that was more than 2 minutes old in the hut. Mayu went to clean the baby when Sango felt another contraction.

"What the hell!" Miroku shouted at the same time. They thought in unison. No way! IT can't be-,

"The child's twin is crowning!" Kaede called out.

"TWIN!"

"TWIN!"

"Miroku/Sango, stop talking at the same time as me!"

Sango cried out in pain and took Miroku's hand.

"PUSH SANGO!" Everyone shouted to the pregnant woman.

"Shut-hell-up all of you!" Sango shouted back.

"It's a girl!"
