Houshi

"I hope Kaede will be ok on her own." Kagome said. "I cant believe we left her to fend for herself." Kagome said.

"She said she'd be fine." Inuyasha said.

"What are we supposed to do with this baby Inuyasha?" Kagome said changing the subject. She watched as Sango bounced the small baby boy in her arms and as he cooed loudly.

"I don't know! Maybe someone in the next village will take it." Inuyasha growled. He pressed his ears against his head at the high pitched screaming of the baby.

"Well for now we will keep him until we find a good family that will take him in. What should we name him?" Kagome asked. The baby had big blue eyes and dark brown hair. His cheeks were large and puffy, making him look irresistible. He reached up and grabbed hold of a strand of Sango's hair.

"Hm…How about Houshi?" Sango asked.

"That sounds good." Kagome took the baby into her own arms and grabbed hold of its hand. "You are now Houshi." Kagome said. Sango looked down at the now silent baby.

"I think he likes you Kagome." Sango said smiling. Houshi's eyes began to droop. After a couple minutes he fell asleep.

"So his name is Houshi?" the little Shippou asked. He was used to being the baby of the group but now he was considered a big boy. "I can watch him for you! When you go off to battle I'll be the one that takes care of him!" Shippou poked out his chest slightly with the idea.

The girls giggled and nodded their heads. Shippou was getting older and had grown about an inch, but he was still just a child. Inuyasha rolled his eyes at the thought that the kit could defend anything.

The sun started to set over the horizon. Houshi started getting restless. He grabbed hold of Kagome's hair and tugged, squealed a couple times then wriggled around in her arms.

"Houshi!" Kagome said shifting the baby to her other arm. "I think he's hungry Inuyasha."

"What? Those things get hungry!" Inuyasha said.

"Idiot." Shippou mumbled. But not low enough. 'thump' "Ah! What was that for!" Shippou yelled. He stuck his bottom lip out to Kagome who in return 'sat' the hanyou.

"Sit boy!" Kagome said.

"Wench!" Inuyasha yelled.

"Don't call me a wench! Sit!" 'thump' The gang walked away, leaving Inuyasha in his self-shaped crater. Shippou climbed up on Kagome's shoulder once the hanyou was back with them. Inuyasha silently growled to the kit, warning him to watch his back and keep one eye open when sleeping. He stuck out his tongue then turned back to Houshi.

"Kagome how long are we keeping Houshi?"

"Until we find him a family." She smiled up at the kit.

"Why cant we keep him?" he asked.

"Well I don't think its safe. He could get hurt fighting demons." She implied.

"Oh. Well I would keep him safe."

"Feh yeah right." Inuyasha cut in. Kagome glared back at him. He stepped back once, showing he was backing down from a fight that he could never win. Kagome pulled out the bottle Kaede gave her. Now all they needed was milk.

"Where are we supposed to get milk?" Kagome asked.

"Right here. Kaede gave it to me." Sango handed the large container of milk to her. Kaede seemed to have the extra hand on everything.

An hour passed and the sun had almost completely disappeared behind the trees. The gang set up camp in the forest. Houshi was tired, they were tired and their legs ached. Inuyasha hated that they always had to take a break.

Houshi was asleep again in Kagome's arms. She wrapped her jacket around him to keep him warm. She leaned up against a tree and rested her head on Inuyasha's shoulder. Sango and Miroku laid out their pallets to lay down.

Everyone seemed tired tonight. Inuyasha laid a couple more wood piles in the fire. He kept his eyes on everything around him. Just waiting for Ekiru to pop out. But there was nothing. Not even a breeze came through this forest. Just darkness.

Ok I am sorry for the such short chapter but I promise tomorrow's chapter will PAY it off! You will absolutely love the next chapter. There they kept the baby for now. His name is Houshi and he's adorable! That's all I can say! Lol well bye for now!
