Kagome was released from the hospital a few days later. Muso sighed he knew he had to treat her right or face Naraku's wrath. Kagome looked around her new home as Muso opened the door to the house. The home was big it sat on two acres of land. Kagome was amazed at the size of the home.

"Mom can we go shopping for clothes for the baby? I know he's not due for a few more months but I liked to get his room ready." Kagome said.

"Ask your father" Sakura commanded her.

Kagome held her head down. Muso was in the kitchen talking on the phone to Naraku. Kagome walked in the kitchen. "Father." she said. Naraku heard Kagome's voice.

"Yes Kagome" Muso said.

"Can we go shopping for the baby?" She asked with puppy dog eyes.

"Of course we can, but it will have to be tomorrow I have some papers I have to go over tonight." he told her. Kagome nodded her head.

"Thank you." she said. and left the kitchen.

"Be good to her" Naraku said "Or else"

"Of course I will, I think she has a crush on Agent Tashio." Muso told him.

"Forbid her to see him unless it is about the case" Naraku said.

"I can't do that I have to work," Muso said. "You told me not to scare her." Muso reminded him.

"Damn it just keep an eye on her" Naraku said "don't let them get to close"

"Yeah, ok. I'll talk to you later." Muso told him and hung up. Sakura walked in the kitchen.

"Did she ask you about the shopping for this baby?" Sakura asked him.

"Yes she did love" Muso said "I told her we'd go tomorrow."

"Maybe you could get her a job at your company or your friend Naraku." she said.

"I'll see if there is an opening at my company dear" Muso said.

"Good, I want her to have responsibility, for herself so she can eventually move out." she said.

"I understand completely" Muso said, as he made a call to his office.

Kagome sat in her room and looked around, there was nothing in her room except for a bed and dresser. She walked in the bathroom and looked around their was a shower, she wanted one, she was to sore to take one in the hospital. Kagome turned the shower on and took her clothes off and stepped inside. The water burned as it hit her back.

After her shower she put a white towel around her and came back out the bathroom. Her mother came in the room and saw the scars on her back.

"Oh my" Sakura said "This masters of yours must have liked bondage"

Kagome turned around, "I..I don't remember much anymore he did things to me, Mom why didn't come look for me when I disappeared?" Kagome asked her.

"After they found Kikyo I was scared..I was scared to find you..I didn't want be like Kikyo's parents...that funeral...oh god that funeral" Sakura cried.

Kagome nodded her head, "Will you except my baby or do you think I just ran away?" she asked her.

"What is there to except" Sakura said coldly.

"My baby, you will accept it won't you?" Kagome asked, she wanted her mom to care her and her unborn child.

"Get dressed dinner will be ready soon." she told her and left.

"Mom what did I do to deserve this" Kagome cried.

Kagome dressed in the clothes she had been given, from the hospital she was going to have to get some clothes of her own too. She dressed in a pink top and pair of black pants, she tied her hair up and went downstairs to eat some dinner.

"Kagome" Muso greeted at the head of the table, Sakura sitting on his left, and Souta on his right, she felt so left out, this was suppose to be her family but there was no love for her, no seat that was hers, nothing.

Muso looked at her Kagome didn't seem happy, and if she lost that baby Naraku would kill him. "Please Kagome have a seat, is there anything special you would like to eat?" he asked her.

"Table scraps" She said forgetting where she was.

"Table scraps?" Sakura questioned.

"I was given the choice between dog food or table scraps" Kagome said.

Muso nodded. "Well you won't have that here." Muso said as food was bought to the table. Miso, soup, Crispy wonton's, Sesame chicken, stir fry vegetables and a salad, along with wine for Muso and Sakura and Juice for Kagome and Souta.

Kagome ate quickly but remained polite in her brash shoveling of each forkful of chicken. Sakura looked at her and was getting ready to tell her about her table manners when the doorbell rang. The maid went to the door, Hojo sat in his car and watched as Sesshoumaru rang the bell to Muso's home. Hojo called Naraku.

"The angel has landed" Hojo said.

"Good evening agent Tashio" A maid greeted as she let Sesshoumaru in.

"Evening, I hope I'm not intruding." he said not really caring if he was.

" Well they have just sat down for dinner, I'll let Mr.Gran know you're here." she told him.

"Excuse me Mr.Gran I'm sorry to disturb you but Agent Tashio is here." she told him.

"Send him in" Muso said.

The maid bowed her head and sent Sesshoumaru in. Kagome looked up from her food, when she saw him.

"Hi." she said with happiness.

"Hello there" Sesshoumaru said.

"Angel what brings you here" Kagome asked.

"Came to see how you're doing," he told her. Muso watched the two, no doubt Naraku knew he was here.

"Please have a seat would you like something to eat we have plenty." Kagome offered him.

"No thank you my brother would starve if I did" Sesshoumaru said, making Kagome laugh "I came to see how you and the baby are...how far along are you?"

"I..I not sure I realized I was pregnant after I asked him to set Haku and Rin free, he was going to give me abortation but I pleaded with him to let me keep it." she told him.

"So lets say 2 months or so" Sesshoumaru said, "Do you know the sex?" he asked sniffing the air he already knew himself.

"I'm guessing a boy they way I'm eating so much, I think it's boy." she told him.

"Mothers intuition at its finest" Sesshoumaru said.

"Wait can you smell it" Kagome asked "Is it truly a boy"

"Hai, it is." Sesshoumaru said. Kagome smiled.

"I'm sorry I keep calling you angel, if you like I'll call you by your given name, but I did hear your brother with the cute ears call you fluffy." she said.

"You can call me angel I'm used to the pet names" He said.

"Agent what is your real purpose for coming here and interrupting our dinner?" Muso asked him. "As you can see she's fine." he added.

"Oh yes" Sesshoumaru said "The children were wondering the sex of the baby and when and if your throwing a shower..I think there siblings plan on throwing you one for saving them."

"There will be no party." her mother said looking Sesshoumaru in the eyes.

"Then I will contact them and give them the go ahead" Sesshoumaru said "I'll be in touch"

Sesshoumaru took his leave. Hojo watched as Sesshoumaru got in his car and left.

"Wasn't that nice of him, now I know I'm having a boy I know what to shop for." she said.

"Yes,nice" Muso said returning to his meal.


Sesshoumaru returned home and found Inuyasha in the kitchen attempting to cook.

"What are you burning now" Sesshoumaru said.

"Nothing I was fixing you a meal for being a good big brother and letting me stay here rent free". Inuyasha said as he bought out two bowls of chicken flavored ramen.

"Is it cooked all the way this time" Sesshoumaru asked.

"Yes." he said as he placed it on the table.

"You know now that this case is over you should go out and get laid, stop you from having all this pent up energy." Inuyasha said as he slurped his noodles.

"Get laid? I don't have sex with just anyone Inuyasha" Sesshoumaru said "I don't want an STD"

"I know some twins, you take one I take one or either you and Bank take one, serious, you're older than me and I have a girl that helps me." Inuyasha said.

"Older and wiser" Sesshoumaru said "You'll end up getting someone pupped or getting yourself popped''

"Yeah I use protection now after that scare, almost became a dad." Inuyasha said as he finished his meal, while Sess had barely touched his. "Where did you go tonight?" Inuyasha asked him.

"To see Taka-san" Sesshoumaru said.

"Ah, the case is solved let her get to know her family, oh that reminds me, my boss heard about how Kagome, Rin and Kohaku were saved and wants to throw a welcome home sort of thing in three weeks." Inuyasha told him.

"I'll ask Mr.Gran about it" Sesshoumaru said.

"I think Mr. Gran already knows, seeing as their friends, your not invited." Inuyasha told him as he pulled out the invitation that said Inuyasha and guest, which Inuyasha had yet to fill out.

Sesshoumaru snatched the invite. "Count this as rent" He said.

"No, you can't go my boss doesn't like you, I mean neither would I if you accused me of a kidnapping." Inuyasha said as he tried to grab his invitation back. "Besides I wanted to take my friend." Inuyasha told him.

"What friend?" Sesshoumaru asked.

"My girlfriend I was just telling you about, Mr. Oksa doesn't like you, I need this job, the trust fund ran out that dad left me, unless you want to share your trust fund with me." Inuyasha said.

"Fine you'll wear a wire" Sesshoumaru said.

"What! why me there is no one there that took her, why do you think Naraku had something to do with it?" he asked him.

"I heard something at his house..and you because I pay for you to live" Sesshoumaru said.

"But you know me I'm clumsy, I have a big mouth you said so yourself, and who's going to look after my babies." Inuyasha said looking at the two pups.

"You'll be graceful, mutt and I'll watch the mongrels." Sesshoumaru said.

"Damn," Inuyasha cursed he was trying to get out of it.

"What about my date" Inuyasha said.

"What about her" Sesshoumaru said.

"She'll think I'm crazy if she hears me talking to my self" Inuyasha said.

"Just don't let her catch you, even though you're an idiot you're my idiot brother" Sesshoumaru told him.

"So I can talk to my date?" Inuyasha asked.

"Yes Hanyou." he said. Inuyasha got up from the table.

'Okay night I have to get up in the morning" he said and went in his room.


The Next day

"Boy..its a boy" Kagome chanted "Why couldn't it have been a girl...girl clothes are so much cuter"

Kagome looked through the clothes to see what she liked for her baby boy, her little brother walked over to her. "How about this Kagome?" Souta said as he held up a baby blue top with a puppy on it.

"Aww that's adorable" Kagome said.

"It looks kinda like your angel" Souta said

Kagome smiled at him, "Yeah it does, I'll take it thanks Souta." she said Muso stood on the side watching Kagome and Souta, when his phone rang he knew who was calling him.

"I'll be back" he told his wife giving her his credit card.

"Yes Naraku" Muso said.

"I told you to keep her away from him." he said.

"He stopped by and my maid let him in" Muso said.

"I see have you told her about the gathering yet?"

"Not yet." Muso told him.

"Right now she's shopping for the baby, it's a boy by the way." Muso told him.

"A true heir" Naraku said.

"Yeah, her angel knew it was a boy." Muso told him.

"Angel?" Naraku hissed.

"Yes, she seemed happy knowing that he knew, she invited him to dinner." Muso told him.

"He stayed and you let him" Naraku seethed.

"No he didn't stay he said he had to go and take care of his brother, but uh he and his friends are throwing her a baby shower." he said now holding the phone away from his ear.

"A what!" He screamed.

"A baby shower, that you have when a baby is coming, she said yes I couldn't stop it." Muso told him, as he saw Rin and Kohaku walking with their siblings.

"Shit the other victims are here" He cursed.

"Stop her from seeing him Muso, or I will deal with you personally." Naraku warned him and hung up.

"Shit shit shit" He cursed before returning to his family

"Sister" The siblings chanted, god how he hated that chant.

"Haku, Rin what are you doing here?"

"Sango and Miroku promised us some new clothes and we're getting school supplies so we can go back to school." Rin told her.

"Oh that's great if you ever need me as a tutor again all you have to do is call" Kagome said.

"So is it really a boy" Kohaku said.

"That's what angel said" Kagome said.

"Sister Sango its a boy so we can-" Kohaku was cut off my a firm hand over his mouth.

"Kagome-Sama" Miroku said "I owe you my life for saving my sister"

"Ay Kagome-san" Sango said "Kohaku has told me everything you have done for him..you even kept them up on their studies"

"It was nothing, he wanted them to be smart, and when he wasn't keeping me busy I helped them." she told them.

"Yet you didn't have to put your life on the line to save them and you did I'm forever in your debt" Miroku said.

"As am I" Sango said.

"I had no life to put on the line" Kagome said "They are my siblings...my world...anything to help them I did...be it my food...taking a beating for them and or a trip to the bed chambers, but that's in the past I have to think about my baby, and my new friends and siblings." she said.

Sakura walked up to the group. "Kagome are you done?" she asked her.

"Almost" Kagome said.

"Please hurry I have other things to do as does your father." she told her and walked away.

"He's not my father" She whispered.

Miroku and Sango heard her as did Rin and Haku. "So Kagome are you going to the party, that Crimson Inc is throwing?" Sango asked her.

That name sounded familiar to all three victims but they ignored it. "I'm not sure" Kagome said "Will you be there?"

"Oh yes we've been invited it's in three weeks, the owner is throwing it in honor of you all being found alive." Sango told her.

"Well then I feel I must" Kagome said "Its in honor of me and besides I'll be seeing my siblings again"

"Actually your step-dad and the owner are friends I meant them when I last attended with Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru." Miroku told her.

"You know angel?" Kagome asked.

"Angel?" Miroku asked.

"I'm sorry, Sesshoumaru." she said with a grin. "I have to start calling him that." she said as she gathered her things and walked with them to the counter.

"Kagome did you get everything you needed?" Muso asked her.

"Yeah" She lied.

"Mr. Gran nice to see you again, I hope you don't mind but I told Kagome about the party Crimson Inc is throwing."

"No not at all I look forward to see you all there." Muso said.


"Have you found a date?" Naraku asked Inuyasha "For the party"

"Yes sir, my brother was kind of upset that he wasn't invited." Inuyasha told him. "But since Kagome and them have all been found he's less of a pain." Inuyasha told him.

"That's good to hear" Naraku said "Has he found the kidnapper yet?"

"No." he said. "Can I ask why you wanted to throw this party?" Inuyasha asked him.

"In honor of my friends daughter of course." Naraku said, Inuyasha could smell his lie, but why would he lie about this.

"Right, yeah I had to laugh at my brother seems Kagome has nicknamed him her angel, too bad she's a victim though I think they make a good couple." Inuyasha told him.

"Yeah" Naraku said his anger evident "Besides I don't see your brother as the step dad type"

"Yeah, I guess though he has a neighbor that likes to pest him, he sometime watches him." Inuyasha told him.

"I guess he does have a heart" Naraku said "What an ANGEL"

Inuyasha looked at him, Kagome had called Sesshoumaru that too. "Well if there's nothing else you need I'll take care of these files." Inuyasha told him.

"Inuyasha, how is your apartment hunting going?"

"Not so well I'm stuck bunking with my brother" Inuyasha said against his better judgement.

"I see, I know of some apartments that would suit you, I heard from the other employees that you have two little puppies, I know of some animal friendly apartments." he told Inuyasha. Not really wanting to have to kill the young boy when he ordered the hit on Sesshoumaru.

"Oh that'd be great" Inuyasha said "I'll check them out once I pay off everything I owe my brother"

Naraku smirked, "A lot of debt huh?" Naraku asked him as a young woman with long black hair came in.

"Naraku." she said.

"Abi wait in my office please." he said to her.

"Yeah" Inuyasha said sheepishly "The ladies are so tempting"

"Hmm I'm sure you'll pay him back soon." he said before disappearing into his office. Inuyasha went and did his work.

"Why do I have to go to this stupid party you're throwing you didn't care whether I came to the last one." she hissed.

"Because I said so" He growled.

Abi crossed her arms, "What do I get out of this?" she asked him, knowing you, you're just using me to make another woman jealous."

"You know me well" Naraku said.

Abi rolled her eyes. "Rich Bastard." she said.

"That may be so but I know you'll do it" Naraku said.

"Only because I need the money" Abi said.

"This girl Kagome, how did she managed to escape your grasp?"Abi asked him.

"She got spoiled" Naraku said "She was given everything she wanted from everyone"

"I heard on the news she's having a baby, I'm guessing it's yours." she said.

"Yes its mine, she was untouched before me and she will remain so" Naraku said.

"I feel sorry for that bastard in her belly" Abi said "Maybe it'll get lucky and turn out like its mother"

"Get out Abi, and buy a decent dress." he told her. Abi left slamming the door behind her.


"Sesshoumaru" A little red headed kitsune asked.

"Hnn." Sesshoumaru said.

"How many people have you killed?" The boy asked.

"You asked me that before and as I told you Shippo you're to young for that type of information." he told him.

"I am not, I'm 7 years old." Shippo told him puffing out his chest.

"And in about 7 more years I'll tell you" Sesshoumaru said.

"You'll be ancient by then" Shippo said "I bet you couldn't kill my daddy...he was strong"

"I'd hardly be ancient" Sesshoumaru said "And your right I bet I couldn't kill your father...he was a strong man"

"I thought you didn't like animals." Shippo said as he picked up Fluffy, who licked his face, while Max whined at Sesshoumaru's feet.

"I don't but they come with being a big brother" Sesshoumaru said, as he patted max atop his head.

"I want to be a big brother" Shippo said "Maybe you and mom-"

"Shippo we've been there before" Sesshoumaru said "Your mother doesn't like me in that way and nor I in her"

"But mama always talks about you" Shippo defended.

"Shippo how do I say this , your mom is too old for me." he said.

"Only by a couple of years though." Shippo said.

"Yes only a couple of human years but in demon years...your mom would be considered on the verge of ancient" Sesshoumaru said "Don't tell her I said this"

"Yeah Inuyasha said you have the hot's for that girl, Kagome." Shippo told him.

"He did,did he?" Sesshoumaru asked.

"Yeah he said you like big girls something about more cushion for something" Shippo said.

"She's not big she's pregnant" Sesshoumaru said.

"Yeah he also said your a pediodial and that your a craddle rocker" Shippo said.

"That's pedophile and cradle robber" Sesshoumaru corrected "And I am none of those things"

Shippo smirked, "What ever you say Fluffy." Shippo said as the the dog fluffy jumped out his arms and into Sesshoumaru's lap.

"When will Inuyasha be home?" he asked.

"Why does everyone insist on calling me petnames" Sesshoumaru asked no one in particular "Soon and soon he'll be dead"

"Oh well I'm take a nap in your room, Inu's screams will wake me." He said and went off to Sesshoumaru's bedroom.

Inuyasha finished his work for the day he had to take a cab home, he was tired and just wanted to go to sleep. He walked in his house and saw Sesshoumaru's expression before taking a u-turn for the door again.

"What have you been telling my ward" Sesshoumaru asked.

"Nothing except you're a great brother who would never harm his poor defenseless younger brother." Inuyasha said still trying to make it to the door.

"So you spoke nothing of me liking heavy set women, being a pedophile, and a cradle robber" Sesshoumaru asked.

"You promised my mom" Inuyasha cried. "Have mercy on me I have a big mouth." Inuyasha said.

"Your bout to have a fat lip to match" Sesshoumaru said.

Shippo woke up. "I thought I heard you Inuyasha." Shippo said.

"You wouldn't harm me in front of a kid or my own kids." Inuyasha said.

"Your lucky I wouldn't lower my self to inflicting pain on others while a child is looking" Sesshoumaru said "But he won't be here forever"

"So Shippo how about a sleep over" Inuyasha pleaded.

"I would have to ask my mom, but don't you have work Inuyasha?" Shippo asked him.

"Can't work If I'm not breathing" Inuyasha said.

"Yeah I just need to call my mom." Shippo said.

"Use the phone here!" Inuyasha yelled not wanting to be left alone with Sesshoumaru.

"That's low even for you" Sesshoumaru said.

"Survival of the fittest" Inuyasha said.

Shippo called his mom at work. "Thanks mom." he said and hung up. "She said I can stay but I need to go home and get my clothes." he told them.

"Hahaha" Inuyasha laughed "Kami loves me"

"After Tomorrow he won't be here." Sesshoumaru reminded him.

"I wonder if Miroku has plans tomorrow" Inuyasha said as they waited for Sesshoumaru to get his keys.

Inuyasha, Sesshoumaru and Shippo left to go to Shippo's house.


Kagome sat in the living room on the floor she was use to sitting this way.
"Kagome why are you on the floor?" Her mom asked her.

"Old habits die hard" Kagome said.

"Well they better die, I want you to get some sleep, you have a job interview in the morning for a job." she told her.

"A job?" She questioned "Where?"

"Your fathers company of course" Sakura said.

"But I have no experience." Kagome told her mom.

"Your Father will train you, most likely you'll just be answering the phone." she told her.

Kagome didn't say anything she went up to her room and waited to everyone was asleep and pack her clothes for her baby and the few she had for herself and left the house.

Inuyasha, Sesshoumaru and Shippo returned home and saw a sleeping bundle on stairs.

"Who's that?" Shippo asked.

Sesshoumaru took the cover off the person. "Kagome."
