It's only been 5 minutes and I already have 2 reviewers! Thanx to Inufan510 and sango750768 I am writing the next chapter early!

Recap:

The next day Kagome went outside to find Eri standing there with a small bundle cradled in her arms.

On with the story:

Eri walked over to Kagome and held out the small bundle. The pup was only a bit larger than a guinea pig (for those who don't know that's a cute type of rodent) . It was a Chocolate Lab puppy that was 3 weeks old. At 3 weeks puppies walk sparely and mostly sleep. They have very tiny teeth. The little puppy was so small and fragile. It had one white hind foot, but other wise it was all brown. He was asleep and Kagome took him so gently, so he wouldn't wake up. He yawned, but rolled over and snuggled deeper into Kagome's arms. He was very cute.

"I think he likes you," said Eri softly. "Ya," Kagome smiled. "Do you want to put him inside and then go to school?" "Oh I have a doctor's appointment so I can't go to school today. Don't worry it's nothing. . . um. . . serious," Kagome buffed. "Ok well, see you later." "Eri wait. I want to know. What is his name?" "Chiou." And with that Eri left for school.

"Come on little Chi let's go inside." Kagome went inside, grabbed her back pack, and went to the shrine well. "This is it Chiou. You get to meet your new family. I hope they like you." Then she jumped in. Please Inuyasha don't get upset.

Surprisingly no one was around when Kagome came up. Little Chi (that's short for Chiou) was still asleep and Kagome still hadn't really looked at him. She sat down at the edge of the well and looked at him for a while. He was very cute. Kagome sighed.

"Oi wench what are you doing?" Yep Inuyasha had finally come. Gulp. Kagome looked up at him. "What's that!" he demanded. Kagome didn't know how to tell him. "What does it look like?" she asked playing question for question. He didn't answer. "It's a puppy Inuyasha," she said. "Where'd you get it?" he asked while trying to look at the puppy with out it seeming to obvious. He didn't fool Kagome, but she didn't want to point that out so she held Chi out for him to see. "It's mine." "It can't be yours, it doesn't smell like you," he said while still trying to look when she wasn't looking at him. "His mother is sick and I am his new mother."

"Well you can't just take in new pups Kagome we still have to kill Naraku and collect jewel shards." So he doesn't want Chi. I should have known but it sounds like he's just caring for his safety. That's almost. . . . . . fatherly. "But... if I didn't take him in he'd be homeless. All alone," she sighed. "Alone?" he asked. The one word Inuyasha hated. Alone. He had been alone for so long until Kagome had found him. Even the women who he had once loved had still made him feel alone. "Yes." "I guess. . . he can stay but only if you really want him because I won't be taken care of him or nothin," Inuyasha agreed. "Really!" Kagome ran over and gave Inuyasha a hug with her free arm, which he blushed and looked away. After a moment she broke the hug. Come on we have to show Chiou to the others." "Chiou?" "Thats' his name."

It didn't take long for them to arrive at Kaede's hut. "Who's that Kagome?" asked Shippo when he jumped onto her shoulder and peered down. "This is Chiou, but you can call him Chi. He'll be staying with us for a while," she responded. "A new little brother!" exclaimed Shippo. "Can I hold him? Please!" "Ok ok just sit down fist." Shippo jumped down and sat on the floor while holding out his arms. Kagome gently placed Chi on his lap. Shippo gave him a small hug. "I'm gonna be the best big brother ever!"

Sango and Miroku had been listening to the conversation from the far end of the hut. "Kagome do you think it is wise bringing an infant here with us?" asked Miroku. Shippo had already passed Chi to Sango. Sango was cooing at him and kept saying how cute he was. "I think we can protect him well, we've done a good job with Shippo so far," she replied. When Shippo heard his name he looked up and smiled. "I suppose," said Miroku.

Night fell and everyone was getting ready for bed. Kagome had already fed Chiou with the bottle and laid out the light blue blanket. She placed Chi on it and he quickly dozed off. With one last sigh Kagome went to bed.

Sorry the first chapters have been so short. It's really late at night and I want to get like the first 8 or 9 chapters done with in about 3 days. I think it's important to set up the story quickly. So any ways please read and review!
