Disclaimer: I don't own Fushigi Yugi or Sailor Moon
AN: Arigato for the reviews. I especially would like to thank everyone who had submitted in their ideas, but my decision becomes final in this chapter. Continue reading to find out who I had chosen to be the child…or children (hint, hint, hint)!
Also, don't be confused when you read Amiboshi's name. Basically, only Usagi and her guardians know the truth, but they didn't tell anyone, so the Suzaku seishis and miko only know him as Chiriko and call him that. Amiboshi will have his name in the story, but he'll answer to Chiriko's name, just as he had done before.
Ch7
From the open window on the side came a ray of sunshine, signaling the beginning of the new day. It was a great day to wake up on, unfortunately if the sun was shining on your face, it proves to be an annoying way to wake up.
And that was exactly Usagi had thought.
She burrowed her head into the pillow, trying to hide her closed her eyes from the blazing sun. She heard a low chuckling and felt someone gently brushing through her hair. Usagi turned to face the smirking god still in bed. "Ohayo, Suzaku," she murmured with a smile.
"Hm-mm," he replied, wrapping an arm around her waist and bringing her back closer to his chest as he planted a kiss on the side of her neck.
Usagi was about to kiss him on the lips when a knock was heard on the wooden doors. The couple turned their heads to the door, wondering who it could be. "Hai?" Usagi called out cautiously.
"Usagi-hime, breakfast is about to be served," Setsuna announced from behind the door.
Usagi sighed and stretched her hands over her head. "Kay," she replied. She listened as the footsteps walked further and further away from the door before turning to Suzaku. "I guess I better head out before they start barging in, trying to find me," she said, slightly annoyed.
Suzaku smiled as he watched Usagi stand up from the bed with the white silk blanket wrapped around her body. He sat up on the bed and glanced out the window with thoughtful red eyes. "I may have to borrow a few of your guards to bring them here," he said as he listened to the fabrics brushing against each other as his wife dressed for the day.
"Sure, who do you want to take?" Usagi asked as she brushed her long golden strands of hair.
Suzaku looked over Usagi to see her wearing a simple dress. The dress almost resembled a Chinese design. Her dress was a light pale pink color. The rim of the collar, sleeves, and the end of the dress was dark golden-yellow. Designs of surreal, but beautiful, red and white flowers were imprinted on the dress from the waist down, ending at her ankles.
"I'll take Seiryuu and my warriors," the phoenix god said. He stared at her and smiled as he added softly, "You look beautiful."
Usagi leaned over Suzaku and kissed him on the cheek. "Thanks," she whispered, "See you later?"
"Of course," he replied with a slight smirk, "You better head to the dining room before they start worrying about you."
Usagi nodded her head and quickly left the room, waving him goodbye. Suzaku watched as she closed the doors behind her and the sounds of her footsteps were slowly leaving his hearing. He sighed and stood up, closing his eyes, as he was surrounded by a light red light and his clothes appeared on his person.
"Well, to break the news to the others," he sighed vanishing in another flash of light. All that was left of him in the room would be a single red feather from his wings falling towards the pillow. When the feather touched the pillow, it transformed into a simple necklace of a gold chain with a ruby on the end.

This morning has been bad for him. First, he woke up by falling off his bed and landing headfirst on the floor and ended up having a gigantic headache. Second, he was sporting two swellings the size of Jupiter, one on the top of his head and the other on the back of his head and he couldn't remember how he got them. Third, he arrived too late to save his breakfast from the glutton priestess. Fourth, he had a cup of steaming hot tea spill its substance on his lap, burning him. Tasuki sighed and wondered if this day could be any worse.
"Tasuki-chan," Nuriko said in a cheery tone, "How was your sleep last night?"
Tasuki looked up at the eighteen-year-old man and replied, "It was okay, but it would've been better if my head doesn't feel like I got bashed by a table."
Miaka paused in her eating to look at the bandit with a puzzled look. "What are you talking about, Tasuki?" she asked, "Maybe you hit it when you fell off the bed in the middle of the night?"
"No he didn't," Nuriko inputted quickly with an almost too sweet grin on his face.
"Oh?" Tamahome said, arching an eyebrow, "Was that all your doing?"
The smile disappeared as a frown took its place. "That's what he gets," Nuriko added, "He was trying to go into Usagi-chan's room when Hotaru specifically told us not to. So I bashed him on the head with a table to knock him out." He then smiled innocently again at his friends as if he had justified himself as they stared at him, wondering if he was sane.
"What?" Chichiri exclaimed, "I thought we all decided to not cross the warriors' bad side. And by entering Usagi-sama's room when they told us not to is definitely crossing the line."
"Ohayo, minna," Usagi said as she walked into the room, oblivious of all the tension. Standing by her side was Makoto, Minako, Hotaru, and Setsuna; the other four had left, knowing that their services were needed.
Nuriko stopped glaring at Tasuki and grinned at his long time friend. "Ohayo, Usagi-chan," he said, "I hoped you slept well."
Her cheeks flushed into a light pink color, the same color as her dress. Usagi smiled weakly back. "Hai, I slept well."
As everyone sat down and started eating, Hotohori noticed that the amount of bodyguards was cut in half. He called his little sister about it, but she just brushed away his question.
"They went to do a little chore for me," she just replied.
The meal went on smoothly with nothing going on. EXCEPT there was a tensed staring contest between Amiboshi and Setsuna and a heated glaring contest between Nuriko and Tasuki.
Suddenly, the red-haired bandit remembered something really important that had been bugging him for a short while. He turned to Usagi and, out of the blue, asked, "Usagi, what was that sound I heard in your room last night?"
Nuriko slapped his hand onto his forehead as Hotohori stared in shock at Tasuki's blunt question. Chichiri and Amiboshi was just as shock as Hotohori as Mitsukake wondered if Tasuki would need any medical treatment, considering the annoyed glowers from the four warriors of Genbu and Byakko looked as though the stares alone could injure him. Tamahome and Miaka were just plainly confused with what was going on. Usagi started coughing as she choked a bit on her meal.
"You are such an idiot!" Nuriko shouted, slapping Tasuki on the back of his head, forcing the front of his head to land smack on the table.
Tasuki grabbed both the back of his head and his forehead. "OW! What was that for?" he shouted back.
"For being an idiot!" came the reply.
Hotaru glared at Tasuki and grabbed her curved, but sharp, bladed glaive. "I thought I warned you to not enter Usagi-hime's room at night," she said angrily.
She pointed it straight at his neck, with the intention to kill him when Setsuna grabbed the handle before she managed to complete her task. "As much as you might want to kill him, you do remember that we are not to interfere with the summoning and by killing a seishi, you would be interfering," she reminded the twelve-year-old.
"But…"
"Don't worry about it, Hotaru," Nuriko interrupted, "I stopped him before he entered the room."
"Good thing you did," Minako said, "I don't know what would've happened if Suzaku-sama saw Tasuki peeking around Usagi's room."
Miaka was pouring rice into her mouth but when she heard Minako mention that Suzaku was in the palace the night before, she sprayed it all out of her mouth and onto the food spread out on the table. "Suzaku was here!" she exclaimed, "How? We didn't even summon him yet!"
"If that's their reaction to Suzaku-sama coming here, imagine when tonight Seiryuu-sama comes," Makoto muttered into Minako's ear, causing them both to laugh silently.
Usagi just sighed as she stared longingly at the now ruined food on the table. She figured that she should stop eating since it's proving to be bad for her health…especially during questions involving her personal life coming from the curious Suzaku followers.
"Koneko-chan," Haruka said, poking her head through the doorway.
Usagi looked up at woman. "Oh, you're all back," she said, standing up, "I hope they weren't any trouble for you guys." She walked over to Haruka.
"Nah, they were all little angels," Haruka said, leading the princess away from the doors.
Hotohori tilted his head to the side. "We're having visitors?" he asked, "Why didn't Usagi-chan say anything about it?"
"Maybe she wanted to surprise you," Minako guessed.
Makoto arched an eyebrow up at her blond friend. "Surprise him? More like give him a premature heart attack," she mused out loud.
"Onii-chan?" Usagi peeked through the doors with cautious eyes, almost as if waiting for a long strict lecture from him. "Can you do me a small favor?" she asked.
"What is it, Usagi-chan?" he asked.
"Promise me that you won't faint or scream."
Hotohori's golden-brown eyes stared at his sister with a puzzled expression, but he nod his head in agreement nonetheless.
Usagi's head vanished to behind the door again. The missing warriors opened the doors wider and moved to the side as Usagi walked into everyone's views…with two young boys in her arms and a slightly older girl holding onto Usagi's dress! "Onii-chan…you're an uncle," she announced shyly.
To be continue. Should I leave it at that?
Nah! I'm not that mean.
"Uncle?" Hotohori repeated, staring at the children staring shyly at him. His younger sister is a mother. The advisors are going to have his head for lunch, saying how his younger sister is already married and have children, while he, the emperor and the eldest, is still single and searching.
"This is Katsura and Katsuya, they're both twins. Katsuya's the one with bright yellow hair and Katsura has orangey-red colored hair. And this one is Sakura, she's the oldest," Usagi said.
Hotohori stared at his nephews and niece. Katsuya's reddish-brown eyes held a childish glint in them. His bangs reached just about the top of his eyes and the rest of his bright yellow hair reached the end of his neck and was tied into a small ponytail. Katsura had almost the same exact kind as his, except they appear to resemble a curious kitten. His auburn hair was similar to his brother's style, except while his brother looked a lot more groomed, Katsura's bangs were uneven from left to right. Sakura almost resembled her mother in almost every aspect. Her bright blue eyes were the same shade as Usagi's, only hers don't reveal everything she feels. Her hair was a unique pale silvery-blue color and in the midst of the color were golden strands. Her long hair was pulled back into two braided pigtails that trailed down, reaching to her waist.
"They really are your children," he said, "They have the same exact beauty and wisdom in their eyes and features, just as you do, Usagi-chan."
"You haven't heard the next news about them," Rei spoke up.
Haruka stated, "The twins' dad is Suzaku and Sakura's dad is Seiryuu."
Miaka was drinking her cup of tea and when she heard the names of the children's father, she sprayed the warm liquid out of her mouth and onto the table. Everybody moved away from the fifteen-year-old, in fear of another object being spit from her mouth. "Their fathers are Suzaku and Seiryuu!" she exclaimed.
AN: To be continue. So those are the kids I had chosen. I'm sorry if you feel disappointed if I didn't use your creations, but I really like them all. The kids I had chosen are from angelwings6117 and Prisoner to the Darkness.
Angelwings6117 didn't really give me a name so I called him 'Katsuya' since it was a similar name to Prisoner to the Darkness's Kenji Katsura (only I called him 'Katsura') and made them into twins since they had the same father. And for Prisoner to the Darkness's Sakura Ryou, I only gave her the name 'Sakura'. I'm sorry if you felt that I had violated your creativity in a way of changing small details. Please forgive me.
I wish to personally thank everyone who had participated in the creations. bows slightly Arigato, minna for your help and assistance!
