S. T. Nickolian: Well Zera is pretty and treats him a lot better than Kagome did, and he probably likes the idea that Kagome can't sit him anymore.

Sessho's Gal: Thank you for your review.

Chapter 4

Inuyasha and Zera fall in love.

A month has passed and Inuyasha and Zera are holding hands and kissing on the lips. Asagi, Dai, Roku, and Ai are happy that Zera and Inuyasha are happy. Zera is glad that Asagi, Dai, Roku, and Ai have a father figure. Today is a big is a big for Inuyasha. For the past week he's been walking with his crouches. But today Inuyasha is going to try walking without crouches. Right now Asagi, Dai, Roku, Ai, Zera, and Inuyasha are in front of Zera's hut. Inuyasha has drooped his crouches. And is seeing how much weight he can put on his right leg. Then he started walking forward. Zera and the kids watched as the male hanyou limped forward.

It doesn't surprise Zera that Inuyasha's limp is as bad as it is. After walking around for an hour Inuyasha had to sit down. He sighed and asked "Zera why do I limp so badly?" Zera hugged him and said "You haven't been using your right leg that long. So your muscles are sore and stiff." Inuyasha hugged Zera back and took in her sweet scent. Another month has passed Inuyasha and Zera are very much in love. The male hanyou is walking with a very small limp. He has even adopted Asagi, Dai, Roku, and Ai as his own. Now Zera and Inuyasha have adopted the horai island children. And now that Inuyasha can walk and run better. He's been taking turns hunting with Zera.

And the male hanyou also been training Dai and Roku. Zera and Inuyasha have also been teaching Asagi, Dai, and Roku how to hunt. It's mid summer and it's hot so Inuyasha is getting ready to take the children to the lake. Just then Inuyasha said "Ok kids let's go to the lake." The kids cheered and they and Inuyasha ran toward the lake. Once at the lake they all jumped and had water fight. A month as passed and it is late summer. Right now Inuyasha is playing with Asagi, Dai, Roku, and Ai. Just then Inuyasha asked "Can I ask you kids something?" The kids nodded and said "Sure you can Inuyasha." Inuyasha smiled asked "How would kids like it if Zera and I become mates and had kids."

Roku said "That would be cool." So a month later in early fall. After putting the children to bed. Inuyasha said "Come with me Zera." The female hanyou followed him to a private place. Once there Inuyasha kissed Zera passionately. Soon he stopped and asked "Zera will you become my mate?" Zera nodded and said "I would to become you mate." With that said Inuyasha bit Zera's neck. Then they made love. In the morning when the children woke up. They noticed that Inuyasha and Zera aren't there. So Asagi started a fire. And Dai and Roku left to go fishing. Five minutes later the twin boys returned with fish.

Not long after Dai and Roku came back. Inuyasha and Zera came into the hut smiling. Ai asked "Where have you two been?" Zera smiled and said "Last night Inuyasha and I became mates." All of the kids cheered happily. By late fall Inuyasha is chopping wood for the coming winter. The kids are helping Zera harvest her garden. Just then Asagi said "Mama Zera your scent is changing. It smells like a combination of you and Inuyasha." Zera gasped and and said "That means I'm pregnant."

The kids looked at her and said "You're going to have pups." Zera nodded and said "I guess so." After harvesting the garden Zera to Inuyasha. She smiled and said "Inuyasha I'm pregnant." The male hanyou smiled, hugged Zera, and said "That's wonderful news." Later that evening while eating. Inuyasha asked "So kids what do you think about becoming big brothers and sister?" Dai and Roku said "We think it's cool." Asagi and Ai said "We can't wait." The next day Inuyasha, Zera, Asagi, Dai, and Roku. Hunted down down enough meat to last the winter. Now they have enough wood, vegetables, herbs, and meats for the winter.
