Epilogue: Their Happy Ending

By: Kate the InuYoukai01

Sesshomaru paced mervously outside the door of the birthing room. Kagome had gone into labor in the middle of the night, and had been in the same condition for a long period of time. The sun was casting light across the floor now. It had been hours... He paced the floor again, worry beginning to etch on his features. It was not uncommon for a human woman to die in the process of birthing a demon's child... He stopped at the door once more and listened carefully. He could hear Suki urging her to push; could hear Kagome's deep gasps as time progressed. It was almost time...

"Come on, Lady Kagome... you must push harder!" Suki exclaimed as another servant dabbed a damp towel over Kagome's sweat slicked forehead.

"Mmnn! It hurts!" Kagome gasped as she pushed with all of her might, and after a few seconds fell back against her pillow. Her chest heaving from exertion.

"I know, milady, it will soon pass. Now push!"

This continued for a time, and soon a baby's cries filled the air. Kagome smiled faintly at the sound, the servant sitting next to her letting out a sigh of relief at the mother's survival.

"It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen!" Suki smiled brightly as she gently cleaned the baby. "Such a beautiful baby girl!"

Kagome opened her eyes wearily, her skin still slick with sweat and her hair plastered to her face and neck. Suki gingerly handed her lady a squirming bundle, and moved the kimono covering the small baby's face aside. The child had bright blue eyes, with a thick patch of silver hair and tiny, twitching ears tipped in black. The child's skin was pale, though not in a sickly manor, and seemed to glow in the candlelight surrounding it. Right in the center of her forhead was the mark of the House Moon.

"She is very beautiful." Kagome whispered quietly as she ran her finger gently over one of the baby's drooping ears.

Suki stood, exiting the room and soon re-entering with a relieved Sesshomaru in tow.

He sat next to her, running her knuckles gently over her cheekbone and then turning his attention to the bundle.

An uncharacteristic smile errupted over his features, "She is... gorgeous..."

"And full-fledged," the servant still sitting next to he bed mentioned. "You could have an heir, milord."

He nodded slightly, then let his eyes meet his mate's, "What shall we name her, koi?"

Kagome smiled, looking down at her baby once more. "I believe Rin will do just nicely."

Sesshomaru's eyes widened slightly, shimmering as he looked down at his daughter, "Indeed... it is a very acceptable name."

She smiled and lifted up slightly to kiss his him, pulling back with a smile.

"And so it ends..." Souta smiled lightly as he kissed the top of Suki's head, rubbing her slightly swelling belly.

"No," she looked up at her mate with a smile of her own. "This is just the beginning..."
