Akuma: This song is Tiger Rose by Robert Hunter. The song just doesn't go a long with the chapter, but it was the closest I could find at the moment. I think this chapter is gonna be pretty amusing to all of you. After all, this takes place fifteen years later. Sango and Miroku's kid is Fifteen, while Kousen...and Miyuki...oh and I just looked through my mom's Grateful Dead Lyric Book, and Aiko Aiko...this is so confusing...they spell it Iko Iko and there is a lot more to the song...I'm so confused...and it says it's not Japanese...it's African American kind of thing...I don't know...it's so confusing. GAHHHHHH. I'm just gonna say for these wolf youkai and wolfdogs, when they reach 18 in human years. They are 18, after that they just have youkai lives. Okay... and to

KIKYO MUST DIE984570: Yeah, I did notice they were too advanced for their age, my fault. and I am not gonna redo this chapter...nope...no matter how many flames you throw at me, my element is fire, and i lub fire...(evil grin)


Chapter 9: Tiger Rose

Fifteen years later. A wolfdog youkai boy with white hair and ice-blue eyes looked off a hill. He wore a red haroi that looked like his Uncle Inuyasha's and a fire youkai claw on a necklace that his father gave to him, he said that it use to be his mother's. "Hey Kousen" a girl's voice came behind him. Kousen turned his head to look at his sister, a wolf youkai girl with black hair that was tied back, and dark emerald eyes. She wore a dark blue yukata kimono with a water youkai claw necklace.

"Hey Miyuki" Kousen sighed, "What do you want." he looked at the Tiger Roses that grew near the river's edge.

"Father needs to speak with you" Miyuki crossed her arms, "Something to do with...oh I don't know...CHORES" the wolf youkai folded her arms and stressed out the word. Unlike her, Kousen didn't do his chores.

Kousen gave a growl, "can I just do them later Miyuki"

"So just because father said your mother is the Moon Goddess, doesn't mean that you get a excuse for not doing chores" Miyuki bared her fangs.

The wolfdog gave a sigh, "So that's what you think of me, hiding behind the fact that my mother is the Moon Goddess, you've got it all wrong," Kousen looked to his sister, "I JUST HATE DOING THOSE DAMN CHORES" he scowled.

Miyuki twitched, "whatever...just come and do your chores..." she turned on her heels and walked off, "COME ON, we haven't all day"

"Coming..." he then whispered to himself, "Damn sister" he turned his head to take a final look out to the sun, and sighed.

"Kousen..." Ayame growled.

Kouga looked at his son as well. Kousen stared at the both of them, "What..." he snarled.

"Son...just do your chores" Kouga gave a deep growl.

The wolfdog rolled his eyes, "yes father..."

"What was that runt" Ayame growled.

"yes...father, yes mother." Kousen sighed, "I will get straight to work."

Kouga turned to his daughter, who was trying not to laugh her head off, "Miyuki"

Miyuki tried to look as serious as possible, "Yes father"

"See Kousen you should act more like your sister" Kouga smirked. Ayame smirked as well.

Kiss up, brown-nosing, back-stabing sister, Kousen gave her sister the glare that he inherited from his Uncle Sesshoumaru, who he never knew that he was his uncle

Kouga ordered, "You will go with the hunting warriors and lead them."

"HER" Kousen bellowed, "WHY DOES SHE ALWAYS GO ON THE COOL CHORES WHEN IT IS SO CLEAR I'M OLDER."

Kouga looked at his son, Kousen...your a wolfdog, no one in the tribe will ever listen to a wolfdog. It is true that everybody in the tribe knows he's a wolfdog. But he never did. Kouga ordered the pack not to speak of this. Of course the pack found a loophole in that order and treated Kousen sorta like a wolfdog, but simply not tell him. Kousen never told his father about it though. Even Miyuki knew about it, but she figured that Kousen should tell on his own. Kouga simply lied, "Well if you just did your chores, then maybe you will go hunting.

Miyuki grabbed her favorite katana and left the cave that was hidden from a waterfall. Kousen sighed and started cleaning up the cave.

"Hello" Miroku's voice was heard outside the cave.

Sango bursted through the cave, "Hello is anybod...oh Hi Kousen-kun" Miroku followed suit.

Kousen turned to the both of them, "Mama, Papa...Sango-chan and Miroku-sama are here"

"Well that means the mutt-face is here huh" Kouga sighed. Ayame growled.

"No actually, we came here alone Kouga-kun" Sango lifted up her hand.

Miroku wrapped his arm around her, "We wanted to talk about some business with the tribe's territory and a problem on it"

Ayame looked at the both of them, "You came here alone?"

"That's the problem, while Inuyasha-sama and Kagome-chan are fighting the problem on your territory, their son is traveling to his Uncle Sesshoumaru's home to talk something out, we had to come and let you agree on it." Miroku sighed, then slowly moving his hand towards his still favorite spot after fifteen years.

Before Miroku even got a chance, Sango's hand hit the same spot as always, "Not here you pervert" Sango finaly got out of her angry mode and smiled, "We also brought along our daughter."

Daughter, Kousen thought. He had known Miroku and Sango ever since he was born, but he never seen their daughter, she was always in training or something that made her busy. He knew her name was Yuuki, she was gonna be called Yume, but they changed it.

"You mean Yuuki-chan" Ayame said.

Kouga knew what these meant, "KOUSEN"

Kousen turned to his father, "Yes Otou-san"

"Go with Yuuki-chan, she will need protection, after all, she's a fifteen year old human girl in a wolf youkai pack, you don't know what the other wolf youkais would do to her." Kousen nodded to agree.

"Woah there, I am not letting Yuuki go with your son...who knows what they could end up doing" Miroku snapped, "Can't you send Miyuki-chan"

Ayame sighed, "Miyuki is off hunting, Kousen is the only one left."

Miroku sighed, "Fine"

"Come Kousen, I will show you Yuuki" Sango motioned for him to follow.

Yuuki stood outside the cave, "Kousen-kun...I've never seen Kousen-kun before...or Miyuki-chan. I bet Kousen-kun is one ugly dude...,"then she saw Hakkaku pass by and add to herself, ...who puts his hair up in a mohak.

They stepped under the waterfall into the open air. There by the cave entrance was a girl with her head turned. All they could see was that she had a purple yukata kimono on with black hair. Kousen thought to himself, I bet Yuuki-chan is nothing more but an ugly bit...

"Yuuki" Sango said.

"yes Okaa-san" Yuuki turned around to reveal two deep idigo eyes.

Kousen's jaw almost dropped, but he didn't want to humilate himself, She's...beautiful. She looked a lot like her mother, in some facial features but ended up with her father's eyes and hair color.

Yuuki gazed into Kousen's amber eyes. Kousen was way more different than she thought

"Yuuki, this is Kousen-kun He's gonna protect you while your Otou-san and I talk to Kouga and Ayame"

THIS is Kousen-kun. Yuuki gasped, Woah, she then turned to her mother "bye Okaa-san"

Sango headed back into the cave while Kousen and Yuuki were both staring at each other.

"so uh...Yuuki, what do you want to do" Kousen rocked back and forth.

Yuuki blushed a bit, "Want to go for...uh...walk"

Kousen nodded and they headed towards the river. They sat under the huge tree that Kousen's mother sat under...long ago. The tree was on top of a big hill by the river's bank. "So..." Yuuki looked at the rivers edge.

"So..." Kousen sighed, Damn, she smells so good, he looked over to her, it's so tempting to..., NO, he looked away, must not let these teen hormones get to me...

"So what is your sister like, Miyuki-chan..." Yuuki turned to him.

Kousen looked at her again, "M-miyuki, well she's just a suck up and what not..." he had to look away, it was so tempting...These are not only teen hormones, these are wolf youkai teen hormones. I mean it's spring...just three more years until I will get these feelings at mating season..., he gave a gulp.

Yuuki stared at him, "Kousen..."

Her voice..., he looked at her, "yeah"

"What's wrong"

"Oh nothing, I-i've just...I've just never been around a pretty girl before..." he started blushing once he knew what he said, "NO I DIDN'T MEAN THAT"

"So you think I'm not pretty...eh" Yuuki glared at him.

"No, wench," he has learned the language his father spoke a lot of times, "I just didn't mean to say those words that way"

Yuuki stood up, "SO I'M A WENCH IS THAT IT"

Kousen stood up, "YEAH WENCH"

"YOU BASTARD"

"WHAT DID YOU SAY"

"BASTA---AHHHH" Yuuki slipped and fell down the hill, she grabbed onto Kousen's haroi for support.

"Hey what the.." they fell down the hill holding onto each other as they rolled down the hill. Kousen over Yuuki, Yuuki over Kousen, and vise versa again. They rolled through a patch of Tiger Roses.

They finally got to the bottom and ended up by the river's side. Yuuki on top of Kousen.

"SEE THE MESS YOU GOT US IN" Yuuki bellowed in his dog ears, they were both unaware of the position they were in.

Kousen growled, "ME, YOU STARTED THIS WHOLE THING."

Yuuki started to mock, 'I've never been around a pretty girl before, I didn't mean that' ha my ass that you didn't start this fight"

Kousen neared his face to hers, "That does not sound like me"

"Yes it does"

"No it doesn't" their faces neared.

"yes it does" their noses touched when Yuuki neared her face.

Kousen's hormones got over him again, She's so...near...she's so beautiful.., "No, it doesn't" Kousen neared his face a bit more, just enough to make him more..., Damn, bad move...

"Well let me tell you mister, I would have like you as a friend if you didn't..." for some reason, a small rock flew out and hit Yuuki on the head and made her head tilt forward just enough to make their lips brush.

Kousen's and Yuuki's face began to glow red, Kousen blinked, We're...kissing...

Yuuki blushed, wha...

Tiger Rose got new clothes

The ladies love her so

They laugh at her connections

But they don't say no

Get down high, get down low

Get your heels in tow

We don't care what

Mama don't allow here anymore

Tiger tea, tiger gee, you my Tiger Rose
Gently roll me, honey, while I sing your song
On the bank where children play ring-a-levio
Come on and show me somethin' I don't know

Good day breaking, windows shaking
At my cabin door
Love me like you did last night
Just one more time
I know it don't make sense
But then it don't intend
If you keep coming by
We'll make it up again

Get up, Johnny, sing along
Get along now, get along
Could be right, I may be wrong
Pretty soon be long gone
Lay me down in worried sleep
Listen to the sweet river weep
Thought I heard it sing a song
Delta Queen done come and gone

Tiger tea, tiger gee, you my Tiger Rose
Gently roll me, honey, while I sing your song
On the bank where children play ring-a-levio
Come on and show me somethin' I don't know

Come on, big-eyed Handsome Moll
And be my party doll
We'll live in jive-o county
'Neath the waterfall
If people say: What can you play?
Just tell 'em anything
Cut-glass spur or a silver chime
Can make 'em ring

Tiger Rose, Heaven knows
I just love you so
Maybe that's the reason
That you don't say no
You get high, get down low
You my rodeo
We don't care what Mama don't allow here anymore

Tiger tea, tiger gee, you my Tiger Rose
Gently roll me, honey, while I sing your song
On the bank where children play ring-a-levio
Come on and show me somethin' I don't know

Yeah on the bank where children play ring-a-levio
Come on show me somethin'
Come on show me somethin'
Come on and show me somethin' I don't know

Yuuki and Kousen suddenly got out of their La La Land and broke apart the kiss. What's this feeling..., Yuuki looked deep into Kousen's blue eyes. Yuuki and Kousen then noticed the postition they were in.

"AHH GET OFF OF ME" Kousen pushed her off.

"HEY" she shouted as she landed on the ground.

Kousen suddenly became soft, "Maybe...I think your otou-san and okaa-san are...l-looking for you"

"Yeah" she got up and looked at the river, We..., she started to blush again.

Kousen looked at her, "I think I will walk you back" he walked to the tribe village while Yuuki stood by his shoulder.

Miyuki, who happened to be the one who threw the rock, started laughing wildly.

"HEY MIYUKI-CHAN, COME HELP US WILL YA" one of the hunters in her group shouted.

"Coming" Miyuki walked back.

Back at the den, Sango, Miroku, and Yuuki were leaving. Yuuki turned to them as they decended, "see ya Kousen-kun" she started blushing.

"See ya...Yuuki-chan" Kousen blushed.

Ayame leaned over to Kouga and whispered so softly in his ear, "I think Kousen got his love life from Inuyasha"

"Falling in love with a human...of course from Inuyasha..." Kouga nodded.

"But I remember you falling in love with a mortal" Ayame glared.

Kouga rolled his eyes, "just because she could sense the sacred jewel shards"

I care for you Yuuki...even though we only knew each other...for a day. I still care about you. Kousen sighed to himself.
