Hey sorry for the long wait, I am still having writers block and I just recently attended and anime con to try and get some inspiration. It was a great con and felt like a camp more than anything else. Well so I don't ramble on about my trip, I'd like to say thanks for all of the reviews, they are much appreciated. Well now I will let you read on without anymore interruptions.

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or any of the characters except for Serima.

Chapter 30: Delivery Time is Now

Six and a half weeks later, it was a warm summer day; Sango and Kagome sat beneath a tree near the lake as they watched the kitsunes play. Sango petted Kirara, who was perched on her shoulder and Kagome rested her hands on her enlarged belly that seemed like it could burst any moment.

"Time is getting really close, huh Kagome?"

"Uh-huh, they're moving a lot. It feels like it's going to be sometime soon."

"Maybe we should head over to Kaede's for now, just in case." Sango suggested as she was about to get up.

"Naw I'm okay for now. You'll know when I'm having trouble."

"Well okay. At least Kirara is here to help get you there if needed."

"Yeah, thanks for being concerned."

"It's nothing Kagome. It's such a peaceful day isn't it?"

"It sure is." She closed her eyes and sighs. "At least I could relax for a while longer before they come."

"I know what you mean, you're going to have a handful." She laughed a little.

An hour later, Shippo and Serima were done playing around the lake and walked over to where Sango and Kagome fell asleep at. Shippo placed his hand on Kagome's belly feeling that the baby pups were moving.

"Serima come feel." Shippo lightly moved his hand around on Kagome's belly feeling the others move as well and Serima did too.

"Wow they're really active right now."

"Hm? What are you two doing?" Kagome opened her eyes looking at the kitsunes.

"We're just feeling the babies move." Serima said.

"Yeah."

"Ah, okay." She looked over to Sango and woke her. "Hey Sango let's get going to Kaede's to meet up with Inuyasha and Miroku."

"Alright, lets do that." Both girls got up and stretched out a little as the kitsunes went a little way ahead.

Half-way to Kaede's, Kagome stopped and held her belly as she started to have pains within. She looked ahead seeing the kitsunes and Sango walk a few feet further.

"Sango!" She called out to her friend, getting her attention just as her water broke. Sango stopped and turned around, hurrying to Kagome's side.

"Kagome are you okay or are you…?" She took hold of Kagome's arm.

"My water broke…I'm going in labor." She held her belly.

"Shippo! Serima! Go find Inuyasha, Kagome's in labor!" Sango yelled ahead to them. "I'll try getting her to Kaede's!"

"They're coming!" Serima said as they quickly turned around and panicked a bit.

"We'll find him as fast as we could!" Shippo said as they both started to run off to find him.

"C'mon Kagome, lets try to get to Kaede's." Sango wrapped Kagome's arm around her neck trying to help her walk some.

"Yeah, thanks Sango." She hoped she wasn't going to dilate before getting there.

"No problem. If it gets too bad, I could have Kirara help."

"You're such a good friend."

Just outside the village, Shippo and Serima stopped to get their breath.

"We're not gonna be able to find him this way." Shippo said.

"I agree, so lets split up."

"Good idea. You look in the village and I'll look around out here."

"If I can't find him, I'll get someone that could help."

"Okay lets go." Shippo took off towards the forest.

Serima figured that the village would be crowded some she transformed perfectly into a villager. With all the practicing she and Shippo have done, they have mastered transforming. She walked into the village, able to see eye level with most of the villagers, as she looked a bout for Inuyasha, but didn't see him.

After some time walking all around the village, there was not even a trace of him around. She sighed and was ready to give up, just as she seen Miroku walking around. Serima hurried through the crowd and over to him, turning back in her true form and jumped up onto his shoulder.

"Miroku! I'm glad I found you!" She said quickly.

"Oh Serima, it's you. What's the matter?" He looked to her.

"I need to find Inuyasha and fast! Do you know where he could be?"

"Did something happen?" Miroku walked away from the loud crowd that was around.

"It's Kagome! Something's going to happen!"

"Like what? Is she in trouble?"

"No, she's in labor! Sango's helping her get to Kaede's!"

"Already!"

"Yes!"

"Inuyasha was going into the forest last I've seen and that was sometime ago."

"Shippo's out there looking for him right now! I hope he could find him quickly."

"He should be able to there's not many places out there that Inuyasha would go. Well lets get to Kaede's quickly."

"Alright."

Meanwhile, Shippo ran through the forest looking about for Inuyasha. 'If I was Inuyasha where would I go?' Shippo thought looking just about everywhere. "Um I'll check the sacred tree." He rushed in that direction franticly looking as he started to call for Inuyasha and hoping not to get unwanted attention to whatever could attack him.

"Inuyasha! Inuyasha where are you! Kagome needs you, she's…!" he shouted.

At that moment, Inuyasha jumped down out of a tree, right in front of Shippo, making him stopped quickly.

"She's what? Don't tell me she's ready to have the pups!" he looked down at Shippo.

"She is, she is! Sango told me to come find you!"

"Damn it! It always has to be when I leave her side, that woman! C'mon Shippo!" Inuyasha picked Shippo up and tossing him on his back as he rushed off towards the village.

"Sango… I can't walk and further." Kagome stopped.

"Okay Kagome, just take it easy. Kirara!"

Kirara stepped back and transformed. Sango helped Kagome up onto Kirara's back and got on as well to support Kagome.

"Lets go Kirara!" Sango held onto Kagome as Kirara hurried through the air of a quick, smooth ride.

Shortly after, Kirara landed in front of Kaede's hut just as Miroku and Serima got there.

"Miroku some help please." Sango said.

"Yes, of course." He placed his staff against the hut and helped Kagome down. "There Kagome."

"Thank you Miroku." She leaned against the hut for support.

"Not a problem Kagome." Miroku looked up to Sango and helped her down as well while groping her.

"Miroku, you mind? It's not the time for that."

"Awwwww, okay then." He placed her down as Kaede walked out.

"What is going on out here?" Kaede said as she looked over at Kagome. "It is time, is it not Kagome?"

"Yes, it is." She clinches her shirt as the pain was getting worse.

"I see, well help her inside. I have a spot ready for her." She walked back inside to lead them.

"Yes Kaede." Sango walked over to Kagome to help.

"Sango, I'll carry her in since you shouldn't be lifting."

"Well okay."

Miroku picked Kagome up, bridal style, just to be gentle and not to hurt her. He walked in fallowing Kaede with Sango and Serima fallowing.

"Wow Kagome, you've gained." Miroku said kidding but got hit on the head by Sango for saying it. "Ouch."

"That's something you never want to say, especially to someone that's pregnant." Sango said.

"It's not my fault."

"Ye could put her down right here." Kaede said and Miroku nodded as he put Kagome down.

"Miroku, please leave the room." Sango said.

"Alright." Miroku turned and walked out to the porch, sitting down.

"Help Kagome into this, while I get some herbs." Kaede handed Sango a robe as she walked into a different room that medicine was in.

Shortly after, Inuyasha and Shippo arrived at the hut. They seen Miroku sitting and petting Kirara. Shippo jumped off of Inuyasha as they looked around.

"Miroku, where's Kagome!" Inuyasha questioned.

"Don't worry, she is inside with Kaede and Sango." He said.

"Good, she's okay then." Inuyasha rushed inside as Sango was helping Kagome to sit down at an angle and cover up some.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome said happily as she seen him.

"Oh good you're here." Sango said putting some cushions behind Kagome.

"I didn't miss anything, did I?" he got down next to her.

"No you didn't." Kagome said.

"Good, I don't want to miss a thing." He leaned over and kissed her.

Kaede walks back into to the room with some medicine to reduce the labor pain a little but not much.

"Here take this." She handed it to Kagome to drink.

"Thank you." Kagome took it and drunk it down and set the cup to her side.

Sango and Serima walked outside to give them some time together. Sango sat down beside Miroku and yawned a little. Shippo and Serima sat against a post.

"Sango are you tired?" Miroku wrapped his arm around her.

"No, it's just from all the excitement today." She leaned into him, resting her head on his chest.

"I see, well don't be afraid to take a little nap okay."

"Okay."

"Hey Miroku, Sango? I've been wondering something?" Shippo said.

"Like what?" They both said.

"Well babies come from inside, but how do they get there?"

"Yeah, I've been wondering too."

"Well, it seems you two are old enough to know, especially with this going on right now." Sango said looking at them with a slight blush.

"I guess I get to explain, huh?" Miroku expected.

"Yes, but don't you even detail anything."

"Oh okay then. Well everything begins when…" He said and went on telling the kitsunes all about it.

A while later, once Miroku finished telling them, Shippo and Serima nodded as the understood and was a little quiet.

"Now did that answer your question?" Miroku said.

"Yeah it did." Shippo said.

"Maybe if you two are with Kagome, when she gives birth, it could teach a good lesson."

"Yes a valuable lesson."

"Would she let us?" Serima asked.

"I think she will because most likely she might need plenty of help. You could go ask her if you want."

"Okay I'll go see." Serima got up and walked inside, over to where Inuyasha, rested against the wall, and Kagome were.

"Hey Serima." Kagome said seeing her walk in.

"Kagome I have a question."

"Yeah, what is it?"

"Well, is it ok if Shippo and I could be in here when you give birth?" she asked.

"Sure, why do you ask?"

"Well Sango and Miroku said that it would be a good lesson for us."

"I see, it is a good idea, I'm guessing one of them told you where babies come from?" Kagome said as Serima nodded. "Oh well in my world, kids learn about it around the age you and Shippo are."

"Really?"

"Yeah, but it's mandatory there though." She held onto her belly and whined a little as contractions starts once again as she seems to be dilating quickly. "I think this may be it."

"Are you sure Kagome?" Inuyasha said leaning forward taking her hand.

"Yes. Serima get Sango and Kaede."

"Yeah okay." She quickly rushed to the front porch. "Sango, Kagome needs your help." She said quickly.

"Okay." Sango got up from where she sat. "You stay here Miroku. If we need anymore help, I'll send someone out to get you." Miroku nodded as Sango hurried inside.

"Come on Shippo, Kagome said it's ok!" Serima went back inside.

"Alright." Shippo got up and fallowed.

Serima rushed into a different room to get Kaede. "Kaede, she's ready."

"Aye, I will be right there. Do me a favor and go fill this with some warm water." Kaede handed her a small wooden bucket.

"Okay." Serima went over to a kettle that was over a small flame, big enough to keep the water warm, and poured some in the bucket; while Kaede grabbed some blankets and walked into the room, which just about everyone was in.

"Try to take it easy Kagome." Sango said as she sat on the left side of her with Shippo right there too and Inuyasha at Kagome's right side.

"I can't, I want this over quickly." She whined.

"Aye, then begin to push." Kaede kneeled down and lifted the bottom of the sheet, folding it back as Kagome started to scream a bit as she pushed.

Serima walk into the room with the bucket of warm water. She placed the bucket next to Kaede's side and sat down by Sango and Shippo. Inuyasha wished he would have had something to cover his ears with, but didn't. Kagome squeezed Inuyasha's hand tightly as she continued to push and take deep breaths between as the first pup started to come.

"One is coming, keep pushing." Kaede said as she seen its head came out and gently held the head as more of its body moved out.

"You're doing good." Sango said as the baby started crying and was completely out of her. Everyone besides Kagome was in awe, getting a glimpse at it.

"First one is a boy." Kaede said holding the infant with inu ears and human features. "Sango, I need you to cut about here."

"Okay." She moved closer to Kaede and grabbed a blade, which laid nearby, cutting the umbilical cord and tying it into a small not at the end. Kaede handed the little boy to Sango to wash him off in the small bucket as Shippo and Serima gathered around to watch. Kagome got a glimpse of her baby and slightly smiled.

"Hey Inuyasha… I thought you said they would look like pups?" Kagome said after she relaxed a little, but was ready for the next.

"I sort of figured they would have been, but I guessed wrong." He leaned down and kissed her forehead. He leaned over to her belly, putting an ear to it. "Sounds like the others are getting ready."

"I know I feel them."

"Shippo get a few good size blankets and Serima, I'm going to need you to take this outside and empty it, and put more warm water for the next one." Sango said holding the him out of the water.

"Okay." Shippo said walking over to where Kaede placed the blankets and gave some to Sango, watching her wrap him up.

Serima nodded and barely picked the bucket up and walked a little way. Sango seen her struggle a bit with it.

"Actually Serima, go get Miroku to do that."

"Okay then." Serima put it back down and walked out to the porch to get Miroku.

"So how are things going in there?" Miroku asked.

"Um, so-so I guess. The first one is a boy. Well we need you to changing the bathing water." Serima turned and walked back in

"Ah, okay." He said getting up and fallowed Serima in. he walked over to where Sango was and picked the bucket up.

"Miroku, the water should be in a kettle in the next room." Sango said handing Inuyasha his son.

Inuyasha took hold of his first and looked at him as the baby stopped crying and looked at him.

"Alright." Miroku walked into the other room and poured the filthy water out the window. Then refilled it with new warm water.

Kagome smiled looking at the child seeing he looked exactly like Inuyasha; the same hair color, ears and beautiful golden-ember eyes. She started to grunt and pant as the second one was on its way. "Another one's coming." she said pushing again as this one started to come out faster.

Kaede positioned her hands ready to hold this one's head as she could see it come out. Kagome pushed more and half of its body as it starts crying. Miroku walked back in the room and placed the bucket down.

"Thanks Miroku." Sango said.

"No problem." He sat back behind Sango, to her right and raised a brow.

"A little more Kagome." Kaede said holding on to the new infant.

"Okay…" she pushed a little harder and pushed it out as she was breathing hard.

"Again Sango." She held the cord as Sango cut it and tied it also. "It's a girl." Kaede gave her to Sango to wash as well.

As Sango was washing the little girl, Serima sat there watching with an 'awe so cute' expression on her face as Miroku looked around Sango to see. The little girl had auburn colored hair and ears.

"Miroku hold one of those blankets out." Sango said.

"Uh alright." He grabbed it and held it out as Sango placed the child to it and wrapped it around her as Miroku held her for a moment. "Wow, so small and fragile."

"Yeah, babies usually are." Sango said as she took the infant from him. "Well go change the water once again. There should be one more coming." he nodded and got up grabbing the bucket and went into the other room. Sango handed the little girl to Serima to take to Kagome. "Be careful with her Serima."

"Okay." She held her close to her as she walked up to Kagome.

"So pretty." Kagome smiled and held her in her right arm as the last one started to come. She pushed again as this one wanted to take its time. She took a deep breath and pushed hard to get it out.

"Here comes the last one." Kaede said as Miroku walked back in with more water and sat down.

Kagome continued to push more and more for a bout two minutes, wanting to get this experience over with, the last child started to come out quickly after trying so hard.

"Try one more push Kagome." Sango said as she nodded and pushed once more as the child slipped out.

"Good job." Everyone said.

"One last time Sango." Kaede said as Sango nodded and cut the umbilical cord. "Well it's another girl."

Sango took the younger girl and washed her as well. She had black hair with a little of silver shine and silver streaks slanted on the back of her black ears. She wrapped her up and put her in Kagome's other arm. All the two kitsunes could do is look at the babies.

"There all done. I be back soon." Kaede pulled the cover back down, got up and walked out to wash her hands.

"Have you been thinking of names?" Sango asked as she leaned against Miroku.

"Yeah I have." Kagome said as Inuyasha put his finger to the little boy's mouth and nibbled on Inuyasha's finger.

"Ouch." Inuyasha pulled his finger away as everyone laughed a little.

"Well like what names?" both Sango and Miroku asked.

"Well since the boy looks a lot like Inuyasha, I was thinking of going with Inuyasha junior and could be called by Inu junior for short."

"Well I like the idea." Inuyasha said.

"That's true, he does look it." Sango said.

"It would suit very well." Miroku added.

"The second born is Serenity and the last is Naomi."

"Very nice names." Sango said.

"Yeah, I like their names." Serima and Shippo said.

"Well we should go, so you could feed them, they're probably hungry." Sango said getting up off the floor with Miroku fallowing.

"Yeah you're right, they are hungry." Kagome said.

"Shippo, Serima, lets go for now." Sango said yawning and getting them to move. "We'll be here for dinner so see you two then."

"Awwwww, okay." They said as they walked out.

"Take care 'til then." Miroku said as he and Sango walked out.

"Okay." Kagome started to feed the pups.
