Chapter 2 :Inuyasha's Sword

1 year after last chapter

"Push Sango!" commanded the older woman to the younger one lying on the pallet.

"I can't Kaede! It hurts to much to move!" Sango cried. 'This is worse than my first two deliveries put together!' she thought. 'Gods I wish Kagome was her with me!' She screamed once more before collapsing on the mat. 'I haven't seen my best friend and godmother to my children in five years. She doesn't even know that she is a godmother.'

Sitting outside was the cause of Sango's pain for a third time in four years. 'Yep he is feeling guilty as usual,' Inuyasha thought. "Miroku it isn't entirely your fault, this is how life goes. This is how it starts: first there is pain and then there is joy." Inuyasha couldn't believe what he was saying but it felt right and it did help with the situation.

"It's just that she never had this much trouble giving birth to little Kagome and little Kohaku, and those two were separate births. Besides, they say first births are the hardest, but it was a snap for Sango."

Inuyasha knew this was true and that it was the man beside him that had the nervous breakdown when his first child came. "Yeah, it was a snap for her but I had to punch and dunk you in cold water to settle you down." They both shared a good laugh over that.

"Yeah, it's so weird that I was the half crazed weirdo while you were calm and cool. That is really unusual and you would have probably received a "sit" from Kagome if she were there." Miroku said still laughing and unaware that his friend had stopped. "I'm sorry Inuyasha, I didn't mean to bring up anything painful for you," Miroku said feeling horrible all over again.

"Its okay Miroku, I'm better now and getting along fine without her." Inuyasha just turned towards the sun setting in the western region.

"Do you ever think about her Inuyasha?" asked Shippo, who they had been ignoring since Sango went into labor.

Inuyasha had his back towards them so that they couldn't see his face contract with the heart wrenching pain he was feeling. "Damn her," he whispered. Shippo knew that Inuyasha said something with him being demon and having sensitive hearing.

"What did you say Inuyasha?"

Inuyasha closed his eyes. "I said damn her! Damn her for loving me and damn her for telling me that she did! Most of all damn her for not having the decency to put me back on that damn tree so I could go back to my hell of darkness and not miss her so damn much!" Then Inuyasha did something he had never done after his mother died, he put his head in his hands and cried all the pent up emotions in him. Hurt, anger, love all inside of him and even though he is a hanyou he still has his human weaknesses.

"Look at that Inuyasha!" called out Miroku, he was about to tell Inuyasha not to be so angry at Kagome because that is what started their break up. That it wasn't completely her fault and that he did have a role in their angry, hurtful parting. That was when he saw a flash of long silver hair blowing in the horizon and knew exactly who it belonged to.

"Sesshoumaru!" all three of them said in unison.

"Miroku you stay here with Shippo and protect the village if anything happens in my absence!" called Inyasha, already walking towards his older half brother. They weren't surprised by this act of commanding and that Inuyasha wanted to be the only one to face his brother in a battle.

'Besides, Inuyasha is the only one that can beat him,' thought Shippo.

When Inuyasha got to the ridge of the bluff that his brother was waiting on, he was surprised that Sesshoumaru didn't speak first so he decided to break the silence. " What do you want Sesshoumaru? I know you didn't come by for brotherly bounding or anything like that."

Sesshoumaru just turned to look at his hanyou brother and scowled. "Believe me, I would much rather be somewhere else then here with you hanyou," he said, his voice so cold that it felt like icicles sliding down your back. "But there is a goal I must achieve and doing this act will surely finish it."

With that said Sesshoumaru untied his useless sword that his father gave him and threw it at Inuyasha's feet. "Tenseiga" Inuyasha breathed.

"Yes, it is tenseiga. The second sword made from our fathers fang. It is a useless sword for me, the Great Sesshoumaru- sama to carry." Inuyasha still looking dumbstruck. Besides the fact that his brother was giving him that wondrous sword which he called "useless", they are actually having a conversation!

'A weird one and kinda one-sided but no less than a conversation.' Inuyasha noticed that his brother was leaving and not telling him what this was all about. "Sesshoumaru, what do you mean by this?" But he didn't answer- just kept walking.

'Now I will be free of that sorceress with the green eyes.'

While walking back down towards the village Inuyasha was examining the sword. "Well I am now the proud father of twins! They and Sango are both fine!" Miroku pounced on Inuyasha with the news and equally surprised himself with the act of almost knocking him over.

"Congratulations Miroku! Now maybe you'll leave Sango alone in the bed at night when you both should be sleeping!" Inuyasha whispered to him.

Miroku looked at Inuyasha as if he had gone a little lost in the head. "Are you mad, man? She is way to good in bed to ever let go of and I wouldn't be surprised if we have a dozen children."

That made Inuyasha cringe at the thought of Sango being in such pain and having to kill his best friend with his own hands for doing that to her. Miroku got caught up in more congratulations, Inuyasha studied the sword and realized that he now held a sword that could give life and one that could destroy it.

He was not exactly sure if he liked that kind of power.
