Kagome returned to her time to see her doctor and get a check up. Inu-Yasha went with her but Kagome made him promise not to embarrass her. He also had to hear a hat, jeans, and a T-shirt. Kagome thought Inu-Yasha looked great in jeans and a shirt, it really showed off his muscles.
Once they got there the nurse took them in one of the doctors' rooms, Kagome sat in the chair and put her feet up on the foot rest. The nurse took her temperature and blood pressure. Everything was going great so far.
"The Doctor will be in shortly."
Kagome sat there tapping her fingers on the armrests of the chair. It was a very awkward moment. Kagome finally spoke up.
"What do you hope it's going to be?"
"What do you mean?"
"Ya know, like a boy or a girl?"
"Hmm, I'd have to say a boy. That way I can teach him how to fight."
"Do you always have to think about fighting?"
"Hey, you asked me."
Just then the doctor walked in. "Hope I didn't interrupt something."
"Not at all." Said Kagome who's face been completely red by now.
"Would you like to know now if it's a boy or a girl?"
"Yes please." Said Kagome ignoring Inu-Yashas' pleas for a boy.
The doctor was looking at the screen and examining Kagome's body for anything out of the ordinary.
"Well, everything looks fine, except one thing."
"What is it doctor?" asked Inu-Yasha who was getting worried now.
"I'm getting 2 heart beats, you are going to have twins."
"Why would that be wrong?" Kagome said more confused then ever.
"They are growing too close together, at this rate they will be joined to make Siamese twins. Kagome, you are going to have to under go surgery as soon as possible. Only one child will be able to live. They are a boy and a girl. Either one can live, you just must choose which."
Kagome looked at the screen, then at the doctor and then she looked at Inu-Yasha. How he wanted her to have a boy more then anything and how much his heart would open to a baby boy.
"Let the boy live, please."
"Alright then, next month you will under go surgery and you have to stay for about a week for us to watch your healing and how you progress."
Kagome and Inu-Yasha went back to the feudal era to tell everyone of the news they had to bring.
"Only one?" asked Shippo
"That's right, I'm going to have a baby boy."
"Why couldn't it have been a girl." Sighed Miroku
Sango hit him in the head.
"You weren't thinking of what I think you were, were you?"
"Sango, please remain calm. I was only thinking since it would be Kagome's daughter that she would have such fair beauty and she would be able to sense Jewel Shards as well. Really, Sango, you think that little of me?"
"Miroku, I'm sorry"
"Plus, when she got older, she could bear my child."
"I knew it!"
As Sango slapped Miroku Kagome stood up.
"When I have this surgery done, I want you all to be there with me. My family doesn't mind you staying there with them while I'm in the hospital. But, I want to see all your faces before and after my surgery."
"Of course we'll be there." Said everyone
