Hey! Welcome back for chapter 27! I hope that you liked the last chapter. A few people have told me that Sesshomaru is off topic. I don't care, that's how I want him in my story, so anyone who doesn't like him like that, phooey on you! LOL, jj. Well, on with the reading!
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or any other characters related to this show, except for Kia, Kimi, Koinu, Kararu, Kiala, Sanya, Machika, Siala and Kiomaru.
Some Dreams Can Come True, Ya Know!
Chapter 27: What? Not You Too!
"Mommy? Why's Uncle Sesshy hopping around?" Kia asked Kagome as she tugged on the bottom of Kagome's kimono.
"Because he's on a sugar high. He's hyper." Kagome said.
"Oh." Kia said as she went into thought. Then Kagome suddenly had an idea.
"Hey, Kia, do you want to go shopping with me?" Kagome asked.
"Yeah!" Kia said, pumping her fist up into the air. Tapping into her demon blood, she jumped up onto Kagome's shoulders, where she had one leg on both side's of Kagome's head.
"Oof! Kia! Don't do that sweety!" Kagome said. Kia giggled.
"Sorry mom…" Kia said playfully.
"Let's go find Dad." Kagome said.
"Okay!" Kia said. Kagome walked out of the room, making sure to duck at the doorway so Kia didn't hit her head. They walked down the hallway for about three minutes before seeing Inuyasha walking slowly behind Koinu, holding his hand as Koinu slowly walked down the hall.
"Hey Yasha." Kagome called.
"Hey honey." Inuyasha said as he saw her. He reached down and picked up Koinu so that he could speak to Kagome without Koinu falling over. "Whatcha doing?"
"I was thinking about going shopping. You wanna go? Kia's coming with me. We can take Koinu too, if you want." Kagome suggested.
"Sure. A family outing sounds nice right now. I just hope we don't run into those annoying friends of yours." Inuyasha said as he started to walk with Kagome.
"Yeah, but I'm pretty sure that they've forgotten all about me by now. It has been about three years since I've spoken to one of them…I wonder what grandpa told them." Kagome wondered.
"Probably that you went to America for a doctor…" Inuyasha suggested as they passed by their room and stopped outside of Sango's room. They opened the door to find Sango sitting on the floor with Sanya and Machika, rolling a ball back and forth with each of them.
"Hey, Sango, we're going shopping. We'll be back soon." Kagome said.
"Okay. I'll stay here with the twins while Kiala is watching her kids and Sesshomaru. Miroku's helping Kiala." Sango said.
"Okay. See you later then!" Kagome said. She and Inuyasha walked out of the room and out of the house, and followed the stone path they had made through the forest that led to the Bone Eaters well. They looked at each other, Kagome taking Kia off of her shoulders. "See you on the other side?"
"Definitely." Inuyasha said, then Kagome and Kia jumped down the well, not hitting the bottom. Inuyasha jumped in right after her with Koinu. The light engulfed them and the next thing they knew they were landing softly at the bottom of the wel on Kagome's side. They climbed up the ladder that Kagome had brought in, and smiled at Kagome and Kia, who had waited inside the well house for them. They walked outside, breathing in the fresh air. The four walked towards the house of the shrine, Kagome pulling out a small little pocket watch and planner. She looked at the date on the watch, wrote it down on the planner. She put both up and they walked into the house.
"Mama! We're here!" Kagome yelled.
"Hi sweety!" Anami yelled as dried her hands at the sink. Kagome and Inuyasha brought the kids into kitchen where Anami had their back to them.
"Mawmaw!" Kia yelled as she jumped out of Kagome's arms and ran over to hug Anami's leg.
"Hey Kia! And where's my little Koinu?" She asked. She turned around and Inuyasha walked over and handed Koinu to her.
"Aw, look at the little boy! He's so cute!" Anami said as she tickled him. She reached up to his ears and rubbed them, giggling as she did so.
"We need to get out the jewelry and stuff that Midoriko gave us so that no one will know that the kids are demons." Kagome said. Inuyasha nodded. Kagome reached into her pocket and pulled out two rings, a braclete and a necklace. She handed a ring to Inuyasha, the necklace to Kia, and put the braclete on Koinu's wrist. She put her ring on and she looked at her mom.
"Did it work?" Kagome asked.
"Yeah. I don't see any ears, and Inuyasha just has silver hair and they eyes. So does Kia. Koinu's ears just disappeared." She said. "And your ears disappeared."
"Okay, wonderful." Kagome said.
"Yeah, they work." Inuyasha said. A boy then walked into the room.
"Hey sis!" Sota said.
"Hey Uncle Sota!" Kia happily as she ran over to him.
"Hey Kia! How's my favorite niece doing?" Sota asked as he picked her up and hugged her.
"Great!" Kia said happily.
"How can she already know how to walk and talk?" Sota asked Kagome.
"Because she's half demon." Kagome said.
"Ah, well that would explain it. What're ya'll here for?" Sota asked.
"We're going shopping and we wanted to bring the kids." Inuyasha said.
"Okay, we can go to a movie tomorrow, okay? There's a movie out that I think the kids will like." Sota said as he walked out of the room.
"Okay. We'll be seeing you later! Oh, and what did grandpa tell Eri, Yuka and Ayume?" Kagome asked.
"That you went to America for treatment." Anami said simply. Kagome started to laugh with Inuyasha.
"Y-you…you were right Yasha!" Kagome said as she tried to catch her breath. "We'll be back. We need to go change."
"I went shopping for Inuyasha and bought him some clothes. You need to change too Kagome, even though your kimono looks good on you." Anami said with a smile.
"Okay, thanks mom. We'll be back in a few minutes." Inuyasha said, then he and Kagome walked upstairs and into Kagome's room and into Kagome's walk in closet.
"Here's you clothes Yasha." Kagome said as she handed him a pair of jeans and a red sleeveless shirt, along with tennis shoes and socks…and a pair of underwear.
"Oh, joy. I get to wear this thing." Inuyasha grimaced as he saw the underwear.
"Oh, just wear it." Kagome said as she pulled out a red shirt with the words 'Bite Me' on it in black letters and a pair of blue jean shorts and sandals.
"Fine." Inuyasha grumbled as he turned around so he could let Kagome change in private and so that he could change as well. They finished changing, Kagome putting her hair up in a ponytail and leaving all jewelry off except for her wedding ring and the ring with the spell. They walked back downstairs and into the kitchen.
"Let's get going. We may meet my friends." Kagome said.
"Okay. Kia, Koinu, let's go!" Inuyasha called. Kia ran back in because she had walked out with Sota and Kagome reached over and got Koinu from Anami who was still holding him. "Mom, can we borrow your car keys?"
"Sure. Here you go." Anami said as she handed Inuyasha her car keys.
"Thanks mom. We'll be back later. You want us to cook tonight?" Kagome asked.
"Yes, that would be nice! You decide what we have, okay?" Anami said.
"Sure mom. See you later!" Kagome said as she, Inuyasha and Kia walked out of the house and down the shrine steps to Anami's car. They got in and drove to the mall, all getting out. Kia jumped up on Inuyasha's shoulders like she had done with Kagome earlier that day and Koinu was still in Kagome's arms. They walked into the mall and down the short hallway, Kagome looping her arm with Inuyasha's. A group of giggling girls passed the family, all suddenly hushed as one of the girls pointed out Inuyasha. They stopped and suddenly started to whisper and giggle excitedly. Even though Kagome's ears still had a spell on them, she could still hear better than normal.
"You go ask!"
"Yeah, but that girl with him…and those kids…"
"Oh, who cares!"
"Yeah, go ask him if you want to make him mad!"
"Fine, I'll go!"
Kagome glared at the group, and held up her hand and showed them her wedding ring with a smirk on her face. The girl's stopped grinning, and grumbled as they walked away.
"What was that about?" Inuyasha asked.
"You didn't hear them?" Kagome asked.
"No, what did you hear?"
"They thought that I was just your girlfriend and one of them was going to ask you out." Kagome rolled her eyes.
"Oh, well, then they're such idiots because what guy would ever leave you after he got hold?" Inuyasha asked with a grin on his face.
"A stupid idiot, I would bet. So, what do you want for dinner? And not ramen…how about spaghetti and meatballs?"
"That sounds fine with me sweety." Inuyasha said. He saw another group of girl eyeing him, so he reached over and kissed Kagome, his wedding ring finger out in the open for all to see. The girls grumbled as they walked away. As they walked around in the mall, girls looked at Kagome with jealous eyes, but Kagome just grinned. Kagome went to buy drinks, and she left Koinu with Inuyasha. She walked to a drink stand and brought two drinks, one for her and Inuyasha, and the other for the kids. She was walking back over to them when she heard her name called behind her.
"Kagome!" She turned around to see three girls walking towards her. It was Eri, Yuka and Ayume.
"Hey guys!" Kagome said cheerfully.
"So, are you feeling better? Your treatment in America go okay?" Eri asked.
"I'm feeling great! The treatment was a success, and I'm completely cured!" Kagome said.
"That's great!" Yuka said.
"Let's go shopping Kagome! It's been so long since we've seen you!" Ayume said.
"Wait, I have to go get this drink to my husband." Kagome said.
"What?" All three girls gasped. "You have a husband?"
"Oh, yeah. I, uh, met him in America, but he really came from here." Kagome said, leading her very interested friends towards Inuyasha. Inuyasha saw who was with her and he grimaced. He had never met them before, but he really didn't want to, from the way Kagome talked about them. She opened a quick mental link.
"I told them I met you in America. I'll keep the link in case we get into trouble and we have to tell more lies…" Kagome said.
"All right." Inuyasha groaned.
"Guys, this is my husband Inuyasha. Inuyasha, this is Eri, Yuka and Ayumi." Kagome said, introducing them. Kagome handed a drink to Inuyasha, taking Koinu in the process, and one to Kia, who took it.
"Thanks mom." She said as she sipped it.
"MOM?" Eri shrieked.
"Girl, you have got some explaining to do!" Yuka said.
"Oh boy…" Inuyasha said. "Sorry to say it, honey, but your on your own.""Oh, gee, thanks…" Kagome said.
"I left about five years ago, right?" Kagome asked her friends. They nodded.
"Well, almost immediately after I met Inuyasha. We became good friends and he helped me through the treatment. Then, when we were still in America about a year after I left, he asked me to marry him. I did, and we had our two kids, one about eight months ago and the other about a year and a half ago. This is my son Koinu," Kagome said as she showed her friends her son, "And this is my daughter Kia. Kia, say hello to my friends, Ms. Eri, Ms. Yuka, and Ms. Ayume."
"Hello mommy's friends." Kia said with a small bow.
"Kagome, they're so cute!" Eri said, taking Koinu gently from Kagome.
"And Inuyasha's a real find!" Yuka said.
"Here we go again…"
XxXxXxXxXxXx
"Mom, we're back!" Kagome yelled as they walked into the door with groceries in hand. Kagome had also bought some more sugar cubes. She bought two, one for her to bring to show Inuyasha and the others how it taste, and just another to keep on hand.
"Hi honey!" Anami yelled. "I'm in the kitchen! What did you bring for dinner?"
"Spaghetti and meatballs!" Kagome yelled as she took off her shoes. "And tomorrow, Inuyasha and I have to run back to the Feudal Era for an hour in the morning. Would it be all right if we left Koinu with you?"
"Sure, that's fine." Anami said as she walked into the entrance hall.
"Hey, where have you been all day?" Kanami asked as he walked into the entrance hall too.
"Hey dad!" Kagome said.
"Pawpaw!" Kia said as she jumped off of Inuyasha's shoulders and ran over to him.
"Kia!" Kanami said. "And where's little Koinu?"
"Ga ('Here' in hanyou baby talk)!" Koinu said.
"Inuyasha, let's go make dinner." Kagome said.
"Okay…your going to have to re-teach me some things though." Inuyasha said.
"Of course, it's been a while."
"Darn straight!"

xxThe Next Day, In The Afternoonxx
"Do you hear that?" Kagome asked Sango and Kiala as they played a game of Monopoly.
"What?"
"Bouncing…" Kagome sighed as she stood up and walked over to the door, opening it. "All right, who let Sesshomaru loose…" Kagome said, talking slower and quieter than as she talked towards the end of the sentence as she saw who it was in the hall. It wasn't just Sesshomaru, but Inuyasha too.
"What? Not you too!" Kagome shrieked.
"We didn't buy any more than two boxes of sugar cubes, did we?" Inuyasha asked her.
"No, please tell me you didn't eat one and then shared the other box with Sesshomaru." Kagome said.
"Yes, I did! How did you know?" Inuyasha asked, jittery, just like Sesshomaru had been.
"Your hopeless…"
"You bet!"
XxXxXxXxXxXx
xxFive Days Later, At The Mallxx
"I'm really glad that you aren't hyper anymore…But Sesshomaru still is…At least he's sleeping now…" Kagome said.
"I know. I'm sorry that I ate those sugar cubes, but after I ate one, I just couldn't stop." Inuyasha said.
"I understand. Hey, Inuyasha, I need to go pick something up, would you go get us some ramen?" Kagome asked.
"Sure. I've got the money." Inuyasha said. "See you in a few minutes?"
"Yeah. See you in a minute." Kagome said, then walked off. She managed to find her way through the mall to 'Games and Pranks: All You Need To Know.' She walked in and bought some more 'Singing Sours' (as she calls them, they are actually called something different) and walked back out of the store. She was walking back to the food court, reading the back of the bag of 'Singing Sours' when she bumped into someone.
"Oh, please…excuse…me…"
XxXxXxXxXxXx
"Inuyasha!" Kagome shrieked as she saw him in the food court. He stood up in alarm and she ran over to him, looking wildly into his eyes. She wasn't scared, she was…well, shocked.
"Kagome, what's wrong?" Inuyasha asked.
"You will never believe who I just bumped into on my way back!"
"Who?"
"US!"
