Dreamstar13: Over 50 reviews! I'm so happy. (squeals with joy). I just have to thank all of you...but because of the long list and the time I'm wasting and the boredom I'm making, let's just continue.

Kaori: Feh, can we just get it on.

Dreamstar13: Sit.

Kaori (thud): What the! How the he...

Dreamstar13: Kaori!

Kaori: ...ck...Heck did you do that.

Dreamstar13: Look around your neck.

Kaori: The Beads of Subduction! Sh... (me glaring at her)...oot...shoot.

Dreamstar13: Not only am I a hanyou dog youkai, but I am also a priestess (at least in here I am. and in my dreams!). So after that entertaining portion of the story. Please sit (thud) and enjoy reading this chapter of... The Life After the Story (not the best title in the world, but oh well.)

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha... but I do own 'sit' (thud) because I use it on my counter part. YAY! Oh, and find out who won the contest for those of you who placed bets against each other. Since I;m the author I can't bet. So, unlucky me. And if you want to make it more exciting make the first sentence at the bottom of the screen and scroll down slowly to see who won.

Chapter 20

A Bit Over-Protected

The fight continued on until… BANG!

"The winner is… SAKURA!" Inuyasha yelled and brought his hand to Sakura's side.

"Na na. I told you I would win. Cousin Shippo can't beat me anymore."

"That's what you think, I was only going easy on you. Next time, it's hard core." he said, wiping the sweat on his head.

"You're on!"

A few days later

Kagome took a stroll around. Everything was peaceful. Everything that is except for an overprotected mate of hers following her everywhere she goes. It was fine at first, but now it was getting annoying for Kagome.

"Do you have to follow me everywhere?"

"Yeah. What if something attacks you?"

"I'm only a month pregnant Inuyasha."

"You do know that a hanyou's pregnancy is different than a human's, right?"

"It is?" Kagome looked at Inuyasha in shock.

"Well, yeah. The female is pregnant with a baby for five months instead of nine like a normal human's. You are a hanyou after all." Inuyasha explained.

"Which is why I said I can protect myself."

"But Kagome –"

"No buts."

"Can Shippo at least go with you?" Kagome thought about it then answered him.

"Ok. I'll let Shippo come with me."

A few more days later…

"Mama, you're okay, right?" Shippo asked.

"Yes, why?" Kagome replied in concern.

"I can hear my brother/sister growling."

"Really? How come I can't?"

"Papa says that a female hanyou/youkai cannot sense these things when pregnant." Shippo explained.

"Wow. I have a lot I don't know about." Kagome than picked up a scent.

"What is it Mama?" Shippo asked.

"I don't know, but can't you smell that?"

Shippo sniffed around. "Yeah, you're right. I think it's a demon."

'Oh sh- -, I forgot my sword at home.' Kagome thought.

"Don't worry Mama, I'll protect you." Shippo reassured.

"Shippo, be careful."

"Take this, Heart Scar (Kokoro no Kizu) (yeah I know that it is Shippo's special bite attack, but he decided to change it (or at least, I did)!" Out of his daggers (I like to call them takens) came a demonic energy. Shippo struck the ground and out came a fiery light that looked like a kitsune (fox). It hit the demon, but who knew that the demon could regenerate.

"It's hopeless to win with such puny attacks." the voice started. "I will kill you and your pups."

"In your dreams!" shouts a voice from the trees. Out comes Inuyasha. "Wind Scar!"

The Wind Scar hits the demon, but the demon just regenerates it self.

"Inuyasha!"

"Kagome, are you all right?" Inuyasha asked, concerned of his mate's health.

"I'm fine…HEY! YOU FOLLOWED ME, DIDN'T YOU!"

"Uhhh…" Inuyasha started.

"Sit Boy!" Thud..

"Twoyearswe'retogetherandyoustillhaven'ttakentheseblastedbeadsoff." Inuyasha muffled.

"It's your fault for following me." After the spell wore off, Inuyasha handed Kagome her sword.

"You may need this." he says tossing her the Sword of Life.

"Ok, eat this. WIND SCAR!" the hanyous shouted in unison. It struck its mark, but it regenerated again.

"You can't defeat me." it started collecting demonic energy.

"Inuyasha, I'm sensing something from this demon." Kagome said.

"What is it?"

"It has something of a structure like Naraku's."

"WHAT! Naraku! Now I'm really going to kill you for being him." Inuyasha yelled at the demon.

"Inuyasha, am I ready for "It"?" Kagome asked.

"Yeah, let's do it. Shippo, you ready?"

"Yeah."

"Backlash Wave!" The family of three shouted who could of known that not only Kagome could, but Shippo could do the Bakuryuuha (Backlash Wave). It attacked the place to kill the demon, the spider shaped birthmark on its back.

"You may have killed my body, but my soul still lives on. Prepare to die." he started lunging towards Kagome.

"AHHHHH!" Kagome screamed.

"Get down!" Inuyasha yelled as he pushed her out of the way and was the target instead.

"AHHH!" Inuyasha screamed in agony and pain. His blood sputtered around his body.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome screamed. She felt anger rushing towards her as she dropped her sword. Her demon blood rushed over her. Her eyes turned a deep crimson red, purple stripes appeared underneath her eyes. Her fangs and claws grew longer and sharper.

"You shall die for hurting my mate!" Kagome yelled leaping towards the demon. Inuyasha, wincing from pain, watched in awe as his mate continued slashing back and forth at the demon. 'Now I know what it feels to watch someone fight like that. It is kinda scary. I better stop her before her demon blood controls her. But how?'

"Inuyasha, take Kagome's sword and bring it to her." It was Midorioko.

"Midorioko, but how?"

"Never mind that. Take that sword and give it to Kagome."

"If you say so." Getting up, Inuyasha picked up the Sword of Life and pinned Kagome down after she obliterated the demon. He put her sword into her hand and kissed her. She returned the kiss. They didn't stop until they needed air (they had a make out session... of course when Shippo wasn't looking).

"So, what happened?" Kagome asked.

"Oh nothing much. I got hurt, you dropped your sword, you turned full demon, you destroyed that demon, and I got you back to normal. Yep, that's it."

"Wait, I turned full demon! Weird." Kagome said.

"Just keep your sword with you from now on, Mama." Shippo said.

"Ok, let's go home." Kagome said. "And you better not follow me anymore Inuyasha. Or else you will be getting a lot of sits." (Thud) Inuyasha had just been sat unnoticed by Kagome.

"Whythehe- -didyousitme?"

"You deserved it for not trusting me on my own."

"IfIwasn'there, youwouldhavebeendeadonlyhavingShippowithyou. Youandthepupneedgoodprotection." he muffled. "Bytheway…" he started then getting up, "is the pup growling?"

Kagome looked at him and didn't know what to answer.

"How should I know? You are the one that told Shippo that I can't sense these things."

"Oh, yeah. I forgot." Inuyasha said. "The pup must be angry with that demon, or else it would have just slept through it."

"Hey Inuyasha, can you smell what gender the baby is?" Kagome asked.

"Yeah, but you have to wait 2-3 months before I can tell you." 2-3 MONTHS!' Kagome thought.

I'm not sure, but how many of you want the pup to be either a boy or girl. Personally, I'm thinking of making it a girl, but I want to hear what you have to say about that. Now then, send in your votes and review. And for those of you who picked Sakura, CONGRATULATIONS! And, this should be the longest chapter I have made, considering the fact that I added a full demon Kagome. Hoped you all enjoyed.
