Chapter Nine: As They Get Older
Kagome watched Inuyasha chase after their demon son, Kenu. Kenu giggled as he jumped from place to place, holding to a bowl of Ramen.
Yasha sat beside her, yawning as he too, watched them. He soon looked up at his mom, pulling on her kimono sleeve.
"Mama," he said
Kagome looked away from the others, to her human son. She smiled.
"Yes Yasha?" she asked
"Can we visit Aunt Sango and Uncle Miroku?" asked Yasha
"I think we can. I haven't seen them in awhile," she said. She looked at Inuyasha who was tickling Kenu, "Inuyasha, can we go see Sango and Miroku?"
Inuyasha placed Kenu on his shoulder, thinking.
He shrugged.
"Sure," he said. Kenu wiggled his way out, landing on the ground with a hard thump.
Kenu blinked, before whining.
Kagome shot Inuyasha with an evil glare. Inuyasha jumped and picked up Kenu. He calmed him down.
Kenu sucked his thumb, giggling at the fear his father had of his mother.
"Hey, he thinks that's funny," said Inuyasha
"So, it is," said Kagome. She picked up Yasha as he walked over to Inuyasha. She rubbed one of ears, making Inuyasha purr.
"Daddy," said Kenu. He tried again to wiggle out, but he had no use. Inuyasha had a not tight grip but a good one on him. He whined a little.
"Come, lets go before nightfall," said Inuyasha
In one arm Kenu rested and his free hand held Kagome's. she carried Yasha on one arm as well.
They walked in the forest, heading towards Kaede's village. As they walked, both parents heard light snores come from the twins.
"Please and quiet," said Kagome
"Yeah, forgot how that felt," said Inuyasha
"That what happens when you raise kids," said Kagome, "Plus when they have dog demon in them,"
"Hey, why is that a problem?" asked Inuyasha. Kagome shook her head.
"It's not a problem, it's just that they have energy like a puppy. They lose it quick too," said Kagome
"True,"
Kagome spotted the village. She smiled as she walked towards it some more, now seeing the details of each hut.
"Ayami, come here," said a familiar voice. They saw Sango pop out from the hut she lived.
A little girl looked up from her activities, looking at her mom. She smiled slightly.
"Yes mama?" asked Ayami, standing up to be at knee height on her mom.
He mom smiled down at her daughter.
"What would you like to eat before we leave?" asked Sango
"Leave? Where?" asked Kagome.
Sango squealed as she hugged her friend.
"Kagome! It's so good to see you!" Sango said, smiling at her friend.
"It's to see you too," said Kagome. She nudge Yasha, as he woke up slowly.
"Hello Yasha," said Sango
"Hi Aunt Sango," said Yasha tiredly. He was slowly but down on the ground, wobbly at first.
"Hi Inuyasha," said Sango, looking up at the familiar red kimono. Inuyasha was having difficulties with Kenu. Kenu was still snoring on his shoulder, pulling Inuyasha's hair while he slept.
"Hi Sango," said Inuyasha, pulling his hair out of Kenu's grasp.
"Here," Kagome walked over to him, taking hold of Kenu's hand.
She stuck her index finger in the hole of his fist, pulling his fingers slowly. Kenu soon released his father's hair, only to holding tight to his mother's finger.
Kagome giggled as she nudged Kenu. Kenu opened his golden eyes slowly, yawning as he woke up. He showed his fangs, as he licked his lips.
"I see you had a nice nap," said Kagome softly into her son's ear. Kenu nodded. She put him down on the ground, only to see him fall to one side.
Inuyasha laughed to himself.
A pup truly needs his sleep
Inuyasha sat down by son, who was still lying on his side. Kenu looked side ways up at his father. Kenu then crawled his way on the ground to lay his head in his father's lap. He tiredly was watching Ayami and Yasha talk, along with his mother and Sango talking.
Inuyasha rubbed Kenu's ears, smiling.
"Keh, you're still tired?" asked Inuyasha, teasing his son.
Kenu nodded, closing his eyes. He was soon back to his slumber world.
"Keh, five year olds," said Inuyasha
