A/N: Ok! Here's chapter fifteen! I'm on the phone with my friend right now, so maybe she can help me with some of my ideas. I still want more reviews. I said you would face my wrath and I meant it. You've been warned, so I am going make this chapter evil.

Everybody dies! (A/N: LOL! Just kidding! Here's the real story!)

"Where is she?" InuYasha was searching frantically around the cave for Kagome.

"I don't think that is going to help, InuYasha," Miroku reasoned. "We have to think this through rationally, or else our chances of finding her are very slim. Just calm down so we can figure this out."

InuYasha stared at Miroku in disbelief. "How can you expect me to calm down?" he asked. "Kagome's been kidnapped, meanwhile she might be givin' birth to my kids!"

"So," said a voice from behind them. "Mutt-face is here too." Koga stood that with his friends Hakaku and Ginta.

"What the hell are you doing here, Koga?" InuYasha asked, glowering.

"I smelled the foul stench of Naraku, so I followed and came upon this dump." He narrowed his eyes at Kagura. "I came to finally get my revenge." Koga turned to InuYasha. "Now, what's this about Kagome having your kids?"

"I thought they already established this," Sango said to Miroku in a hushed whisper.

"You know good and well what I was talkin' about," InuYasha sneered. "I told you she was pregnant months ago!"

Koga's eyes widened. "You did not! I would've remembered something like that!"

"You pathetic fools really believe Naraku's tricks?" Kagura stood in the very back of the cave, eyeing them.

"Do you mean Naraku disguised himself as Koga?" Shippo asked nervously.

Kagura nodded. "It was all part of Kikyo's plan."

Kagome was sitting restlessly in the corner of one of the castle rooms. Her contractions were getting worse, and still, no one would help her. Kikyo being in there did not help. If anything it made her pain worse. She now had to undergo the emotional sting of sitting in the presence of InuYasha's ex-girlfriend. She knew that he could never forget about Kikyo, no matter what she did.

"Ahhhh!" Kagome screamed out in pain, she could feel something begin to push out of her. 'Not now,' she thought. 'Can't this wait?' She was sure that one of the babies was coming now, and she couldn't do anything to stop it. 'I guess I better get this over with.' Kagome began to push.

(0000000000000000000)

InuYasha charged inside the castle, blinded with rage. "I still can't smell her!" he said, frustrated. "Damn it! Naraku must have some kind of barrier around the room she's in!" The others were waiting outside, knowing that it wouldn't be in Kagome's best interest for them to all come barreling in there, especially if she was in labor.

InuYasha turned around sharply as his ears picked up a faint scream in the opposite direction. 'Kagome!' his mind reveled. He rushed in the direction of the scream. 'Let her be safe. If she isn't, someone is gonna pay.' He could hear her yelps of pain becoming increasingly louder with every step he took, until the shrieks completely surrounded him.

He growled in aggravation. 'The sound is coming from every direction,' he thought to himself. 'I can't tell where it's coming from!'

Another voice suddenly chimed in with the screams. "What will you do, InuYasha?" it said. "Your precious Kagome is in pain, and you can't stop it. I am, however, willing to give you the opportunity to see her one last time if you heed my request. If your children should survive this, you may take them, but you must leave Kagome with me."

"Shut up, Naraku," InuYasha shouted toward the voice. "There's no way I would ever just hand Kagome over to you!"

Naraku laughed. "Very well then. You will give your children to me."

"Forget it, you bastard."

"You must choose, InuYasha, or remain engulfed in the screams of the woman you love for eternity."

InuYasha glanced around. 'There's got to be a way out of this! I can't make this choice!'

"Time is running out, InuYasha," Naraku told him impatiently. "You must choose, or I will not give you any option. Remember, I can kill Kagome anytime I want, and I'll do it right now if you do not choose. What will it be; Kagome, or your own children?"

"Damn you!" InuYasha shouted. He pulled Tetsusaiga from its sheath, and it began to glow red. "I'll just blast through this barrier of yours!" InuYasha did his Red Tetsusaiga attack, shattering the barrier that Naraku had put around the room. The surrounding shrieks faded as well as Naraku's voice.

"Ow!"

InuYasha turned, hearing Kagome's scream, though it was only coming from one way. He followed the noise to the back of the castle into a tiny room set off to the side.

"Kagome," He said frantically, entering the room.

"InuYasha!"

He swiftly headed to her side, grasping her hand. "Are you ok?" he asked.

"InuYasha, the babies are coming! You have to do something!"

"I know," he cooed. "I'll take care of this, I promise." InuYasha turned to glare at Kikyo. "I'm taking Kagome."

Kikyo smirked. "It won't be so easy. Naraku has already cursed her. If you take the girl out of the vicinity, she will die. If you leave her here with me, she will disappear forever. You cannot win. I already have." She eyed Kanna's mirror, as it showed a scene of a demon slayer, a monk, and a fox child. "Your friends were not wise to stay outside. They shall parish in a matter of minutes."

"You are not the Kikyo I knew fifty years ago," InuYasha stated. "She wasn't manipulative and sadistic. She would've understood what was happening with Kagome and me. You're not her! You're just a copy, a mere image of her. The real Kikyo died a long time ago. I'm only sorry it took me so long to realize it." His fists were clenched as he stared at the dead priestess.

Kagome sighed inwardly. InuYasha was still in love with the Kikyo that died fifty years ago. 'He says he loves me,' she argued to herself. 'Does he mean it, though? Can he ever just forget about her? I understand I'm being selfish, but I don't know if I can raise a family with someone who doesn't really love me.' Kagome groaned in pain as she felt herself push again.

Kikyo began to slowly saunter out of the room, Kanna following close behind. "I will leave you now, InuYasha," she said. "Just know that you will lose Kagome and your friends. I'll make sure of that." She exited the quarters, leaving Kagome and InuYasha alone.

"Don't worry," InuYasha whispered to Kagome. "I won't let anything happen to you." He squeezed her hand tightly, hoping the gesture would reassure her.

"You have to help me do this," she told him. "I can't handle it on my own."

He looked at her, astonished. "Kagome, I don't know how. I've never seen this done before."

Kagome screamed out once more. "You have to try."

He nodded, signaling that he was ready.

(000000000000000000)

"Just a little bit more, Kagome," InuYasha coached. "You're almost there." He was holding in his hands a tiny baby boy and was now waiting for the girl.

Kagome was breathing almost painfully hard as she was giving birth. Her face was screwed up as she winced and screamed in pain.

InuYasha continued his ranting of encouragement. "You're doing good. Keep going." A bright smile lit up his face as a small child finally emerged. "See," he said. "You're done now." He cut the cord away from the baby, proceeding to clean it with his kimono. He presented the two children to Kagome.

Tears filled her eyes. "Wow," she mustered out, her breathing still ragged. "Look at them, they're perfect." Both children resembled their parents in some way. The boy had a small tuft of black hair on his tiny head. Just underneath the tuft were two little black dog-ears. The girl had a bit of beautiful silver hair atop her head. She opened her eyes, staring at the bright faces of her grinning parents. Her eyes were a deep amber, much like her father's. Her brother also opened his eyes to the world, revealing a similar color. Kagome laughed softly, opening her arms.

InuYasha placed the two babies in her open arms, kissing her forehead lightly. Kikyo's words were still haunting the very back of his mind. She had said that if he and Kagome remained in Naraku's castle, Kagome would disappear. However, if they were to leave, she would die. His only option of to defeat Naraku and break the curse before Kagome disappeared.

"Kagome, I have to leave," he stated, breaking their comfortable silence. "I'll find one of the others to stay with you, but I have to go take care of Naraku."

Kagome looked up at him. "Ok, I understand, but please hurry."

InuYasha nodded, quickly making his way out of the room. 'I have to find someone soon,' he thought to himself. 'I can't risk putting Kagome or our children in danger!' He burst out of the castle to meet the faces of his friends as well as Koga, Kagura, Hakaku, and Ginta.

"I need someone to watch Kagome," he instructed. "I don't have time to explain the situation."

Sango and Miroku volunteered. "We'll take care of her."

"Wait a minute! You can't leave me alone with these guys," Shippo protested. "I want to come."

Koga interrupted him. "I'll gladly watch over Kagome, seeing as you obviously can't keep her safe," he said, nodding toward InuYasha. "I'll do anything to protect my woman."

InuYasha ignored the comment, leading them to the room where Kagome was located. The group gave a small gasp when they entered the room, seeing the small children balanced in Kagome's arms. She grinned at them, feeling a surge of pride at the moment.

"Oh, Kagome they're beautiful," Sango commented.

Miroku snickered her. "Well Sango, if you really like them that much we can make a pair of our own."

She gave him a well-deserved slap. "Now is not the time," she sneered.

Koga said nothing, but silently watched the group. He knew that he had lost his chance with Kagome.

"Can I see?" Shippo asked excitedly as he scampered onto her shoulder. "Wow! They're really cute! Do you think that they'll play with me when they get older, Kagome?"

"I'm sure they will."

InuYasha gave one last glance at Kagome and their newborn babies before leaving the room silently. He tried concentrating his thoughts on Naraku. 'I have find him. I don't want to lose Kagome. I can't let her disappear! I need her with me. I can't raise two children alone.' He shook his head. 'I can't think that way. I'm sure she'll be fine.' It never occurred to InuYasha that he should be thinking about the safety of his children as well.

(00000000000000000000)

"I will take them," a voice said in Kagome's mind. "If you do not obey, they will be mine. I will take your children."

Kagome jerked her head up, looking around they room. She glanced down, seeing her twins safely nestled in her arms. Though she couldn't help but wonder what, or whom, that voice belonged to. Did she imagine it, or was it part of Kikyo's elaborate scheme? Or, perhaps it was something else it its own entirety.

A/N: That was the longest chapter I've ever written! Ok, I know it wasn't that long, but I'm still proud. Well, the babies are finally here, but what is the voice in Kagome's head. Find out next time! (Ok, I know that was really corny) REVIEW! PLEASE?
