Chapter 15: Yasuo and Sashiko Ending with Sequel
Inuyasha walked slowly back into the house. Walking around when your 9 months pregnant is not fun. You get tired after five steps, and you feel like your going to fall over. Plus its kind of hard to walk when your feet are all swollen.
"Where did you go?" Onyx asked, looking at the pregnant dog.
"I had to piss." Inuyasha grumbled back sitting back down.
"You pissed 20 minutes go!" Onyx pressed on.
"Well, I had to piss again."
"Well now your just getting pissy." Onyx announced turning away.
"I'm surrounded by idiots!" Wojna wailed. That's right both Wojna and Onyx were stuck with baby sitting duty. She says baby since Inuyasha can be quite childish when he's in a complaining mood.
"I am not getting mad." Inuyasha growled.
"Ahh…The pregnant one needs a nap," Onyx complained to Wojna.
"I can't sleep." Inuyasha replied, sounding sad. Every time he tried he just tossed and turned the whole time.
"I'll help you with that," Onyx mumbled annoyed grabbing a nearby sword hilt. Wojna grabbed the hilt and put it out of Onyx's reach.
"No sword for you." Onyx pouted, she was so bored. Without Sashiko around, there was nobody to taunt that would be moody enough to reply back, but not mean enough to try to kill them. Well besides Inuyasha but he was hormonal and he might actually kill them now. If he could move…
Inuyasha groaned, holding his stomach. He winced slightly.
"False contractions again?" Wojna asked, looking uninterested. Inuyasha's been having false contractions for the last few days.
"No…they hurt more then the false ones."
"Okay," Onyx said, "So they're not false contractions. Did you eat something bad?"
Wojna smacked her forehead, "Go get Sesshomaru and the others, I'm pretty sure these are real contractions."
Onyx stared at Wojna wide-eyed, "I'll go fetch the others." She said slowly before she disappeared.
"Lets get you upstairs, Inuyasha. How long was your labor last time?" Wojna asked, poofing them upstairs. Inuyasha didn't know they could do that.
"4 hours before Koichi was born, another hour for Sashiko." Inuyasha groaned.
"Ok, just lay down. How long have you been having contractions?" Wojna asked suspicious.
"How do you-"
"I've delivered babies before and we're at the active part of the contractions."
"I've had them for about an hour now, they were so light I barely noticed," he winced in pain. Wojna shook her head, ashamed. Onyx appeared beside her.
"They're coming." She stated as she laid down a whole bunch of leaves and herbs. Wojna looked at them and nodded. Onyx finished them quickly making a natural pain killer.
"Go and wait for the others. Only allow Sesshomaru, and Sango in." Wojna announced, Onyx left to do her job. It was decided that since Sango knew a lot about demons, being a slayer and all, she would help Inuyasha along with Wojna and Onyx.
"How are you doing, Inuyasha?" She turned and noticed he was sweating a little more than before. Groaning, she stripped him from the waist down, and laid a blanket over him.
"You still have at least a half hour before you need to push. Wanna play a card game?" Inuyasha growled, "Okay guess not."
"I'm going to kill you." Inuyasha stated.
"Hey, save it for Sesshomaru." Wojna hissed back, before grabbing the herbs that were in a cup. She put it near the bed for when Inuyasha needed to start pushing.
Moments later Onyx busted through the door with Sesshomaru and Sango right behind her. Onyx was dancing around, Sango looked worried, and Sesshomaru actually looked nervous, but Sashiko's words came back to him. He smiled despite himself.
Sesshomaru went right to his mate's side. He brushed some of the white hair of out of Inuyasha's eyes. Inuyasha managed to smile at him before another contraction hit him. Sango looked at the dragon twins after they filled her in on everything. She walked over and gave Inuyasha the herbal medicine.
"Okay, I think he's ready," Sango said after checking him. Wojna got the blanket and cleaning supplies ready as Onyx stood next to Sango.
"Are you ready Inuyasha?" Sango asked. Inuyasha grabbed Sesshomaru's hand. He nodded.
"This is going to be a pain in the ass…literally," Onyx joked, earning a glare from just about everyone in the room. She chuckled weakly. 'Note to self,' she thought, 'Not time for comedy.'
"Now's the time to start pushing," Wojna stated, coming back over to the group.
-Outside the room, in the hall-
"How long are we going to be out here?" Rin asked leaning against the wall. She was excited to meet the newest member of the family. Her heart still sorrowful from the death of her sister. She hoped the baby will lift some of that sadness though not take it away completely.
"Well my dad said it took him four hours to deliver me." Koichi announced. Everyone groaned, this was going to be a long wait.
It wasn't until three hours later, a light cry came from the room. Everyone outside leaned against the wall in relief, finally it was over.
Inside the room, Wojna gently grabbed the now whimpering baby and began to clean off the blood and goo. Inuyasha fell back against the blankets. Sesshomaru leaned down and gently kissed his forehead.'
"You did wonderful." He whispered. Inuyasha smiled gratefully. Wojna walked back over to them, the baby wrapped up in a Turquoise blanket.
"It's a boy." She stated quietly, handing him to Inuyasha. Inuyasha shook his head.
"Let Sesshomaru hold him first," He murmured. Wojna nodded and handed the baby to Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru took him and held him near Inuyasha so he could see as well. They were both awed by the baby.
He had Inuyasha's face structure though you could tell he would be as pale as Sesshomaru. He had one stripe on each cheek the same color as Sesshomaru's. He also had one stripe on each wrist and thigh. His golden hue eyes were wide like Inuyasha's and had the same innocent yet curious look. His hair was the same color as Sesshomaru's but was thick and course like Inuyasha's. On top of his head laid two adorable puppy ears.
The little pup looked up at his parents with partially opened eyes, studying them. Sesshomaru sniffed the pup and let the pup sniff him in return. Since most dog demon's recognize others by scent. Sesshomaru gave the pup to Inuyasha and he did the same thing.
"What should we name him?" Sesshomaru asked, looking at his mate and son.
"We should ask Koichi." Inuyasha replied. Sesshomaru nodded and was surprised when Onyx went to the door and called Koichi in. Koichi walked into the room quietly and carefully. He sat down next to Sesshomaru and looked over the blanket at the pup inside.
"Meet your brother," Inuyasha whispered, the pup had gone to sleep. Koichi smiled lightly.
"What's his name?" Koichi questioned.
"We thought you should name him." Sesshomaru answered. Koichi looked at the pup with wide-eyes.
"Can I hold him first?" Koichi asked. Inuyasha lifted his arms so Sesshomaru could take the baby. After showing Koichi what to do, he placed the newborn in his arms. He looked down at the pup. The pup woke up not knowing the scent of the person holding him. Koichi grinned as the pup sniffed him recognizing the similar scent.
"He's quiet, isn't he? We barely heard him outside the room when he was born."
"He gets it from Sesshomaru." Inuyasha answered, sounding tired. His eyes starting to close.
"Yasuo, the peaceful one." Koichi whispered, "He was born during a peaceful time and he'll bring peace to the family." Koichi's eyes welled up with tears as he looked at the pup, "Sashiko would've loved you." He told Yasuo.
Inuyasha's eyes also got moist as he thought about his only daughter. He looked at his two sons, and his heart clenched in pain. There should be three children. Koichi let the tears fall from his eyes, causing Yasuo to whimper. He immediately wiped the tears and handed him back to his father. He walked silently from the room.
"Get some rest Inuyasha," Sango commanded, gently. Inuyasha nodded. Sesshomaru made sure his mate was asleep before taking the pup to meet the rest of the group.
-The next morning-
Miroku sat on a hill looking at the sunrise. He looked at his hand for the umpteenth time. He still couldn't believe he was free. The curse placed upon his family, lifted. Now he could…
"Miroku?" A soft voice called. Miroku turned to see Sango come and sit next to him, "What are you doing out here?"
"Thinking. I just cant believe it. I'm free. We can…we can have kids now Sango." Miroku stated, "Its what we always wished for."
"Are you ready to have kids though?" Sango teased.
"More ready then you'll ever know."
"Hey you two!" Kagome came and sat with them as well, "What are you talking about?"
"Being free," Miroku stated, "Its finally over."
"I know," Kagome said dreamily, "I can finally go home and marry Hojo. The only problem is before I leave I have to destroy the Shikon to Tama meaning I won't be able to see you guys anymore." Kagome got a sad, "I'm going to miss you."
"We have a lot of memories," Sango announced, "As long as we have our memories."
"Hey!" They turned to see Shippo, Kirara, and Rin coming towards them.
"What are you guys doing up and out here so early?" Kagome asked.
"Inuyasha's feeding the pup so we gave him some room," Shippo stated, sitting next to Sango.
"How's Sesshomaru taking to being a father to a newborn," Kagome asked.
Rin shrugged, "Pretty good though it is different then having two ten year olds. Though he said Sashiko told him something the night before the war that made him relax a lot." They sat in silence after that watching the sunrise. Everyone sadly remembering that there use to be two ten year olds not even 4 months ago.
"Where's the dragon twins?" Shippo asked suddenly.
"Talking to the villagers, trying to get the town up and running again." Sango answered, "Without Kura around they're the heirs to this village."
"How old do you think those two are?" Kagome wondered. They frowned, nobody knew.
"Where's Kouga, Ayame and Kisho?" Rin asked, looking around for the wolves.
"Getting ready to leave. They have a pack to lead still." Shippo replied, "I saw them earlier. Kisho went to Sashiko's memorial I think." Everyone got quiet thinking about the fallen child.
-At the lake-
The wolf demon stood in front of the engraved rock, staring at the inscription though not reading it.
"Hey Sashiko," He whispered, "I thought I'd come visit you before I left. We're going back to the mountains. I'm sorry I never got to tell you how much I cared about you. I've never cared for anyone as much as you. Even though you were so cold and mean on the outside but sometimes you could be an okay person.
"Why did you leave us though Sashiko? Why didn't Sesshomaru have Tenseiga with him? Why the hell couldn't he see something like this happening? He was too worried about Inuyasha getting hurt that he left Tenseiga with Rin, how stupid! Can she even use the sword? It would've been too late anyways, by the time the war was over we couldn't find your body and Sesshomaru says the death imps would've already taken your soul away.
"No sense reveling in the past, I guess. I'll keep my promise though. I'll move on, and so will Koichi. You should see your brother Yasuo. He's adorable, even you'd have to admit that."
"KISHO!" His father's yell came from the edge of the woods. Kisho glanced back.
"Well I have to go Sash. Have a good afterlife." With that Kisho turned and walked away from the grave that was one of his best friends.
Everyone stood outside the hut. The three wolves saying their good-byes to their friends.
"We'll come visit you," Kouga announced, shaking his head as his wife cooed over the little pup.
"We better!" Kisho grumbled as he talked to Koichi. They shook hands and smiled.
"Come on Ayame," Kouga growled, "We have to get home sometime soon." Ayame reluctantly gave the pup back to Sesshomaru and the three wolves walked away from the group.
"We should be leaving to." Sango said regretfully. Inuyasha nodded in understanding.
"We're going to talk to Onyx and Wojna before leaving." Sesshomaru stated. Inuyasha decided to move back to the Western Lands.
Kirara transformed so Miroku and Sango could get a ride. Ah Uh was brought here so Kagome and Shippo would have a ride as well.
Inuyasha stepped forward and hugged Kagome, "I guess this is a goodbye." He whispered.
"Yep, after I leave I'll never see you guys again." She walked and hugged everyone, including Sesshomaru.
"What are you going to do with the Shikon no Tama?" Sesshomaru asked.
"Guard it in the future until I can think of a wish." Kagome replied, looking at the jewel around her neck, "It was in the future before."
Tears fell down Kagome's cheek as she rode on Ah Uh out of the village, Sango and Miroku with her.
"Is Shippo going to live with Sango and Miroku?" Koichi asked.
"Yeah." Inuyasha answered.
They turned to find the Dragon Twins only to be surprised by them standing behind them. They looked at each other for a few seconds.
"1,459!" Onyx shouted to the leaving people. Sango raised an arm in acknowledgement, knowing what she was talking about, but not knowing how they heard them.
"I'm guessing you're leaving." Wojna stated, ignoring her sisters outburst along with the others.
"Yes, we're heading to the western lands." Inuyasha explained. Onyx nodded.
"We know. Good luck. Don't worry Inuyasha we'll take care of this village." Onyx told him. Inuyasha smiled.
"I never doubted that." Inuyasha replied.
"We'll stay in touch. That's a promise." Wojna said smiling. Kaze, Kori and Chikyu came to say their goodbyes as well.
Sesshomaru looked at Kori, knowing how close she was to his daughter, "If you ever want to come to the western lands, you're more then welcomed."
"That's very gracious of you." Kori replied, smirking.
"You should get going," Wojna announced, "You'll want Yasuo home before nightfall."
Sesshomaru nodded in agreement, "Where did Koichi go? He has Yasuo with him."
"He wanted Sashiko to meet Yasuo before we left." Inuyasha whispered sadly.
Koichi stood in front of the tombstone, "Hey sis, I brought Yasuo over so you could meet him. Isn't he sweet? I miss you a lot, and now that we're heading back to the western lands I won't be able to visit you everyday, but I'll come back" He wiped away some tears from his eyes with his free arm. Yasuo whimpered, "See, Yasuo going to miss meeting you, too. I love you a lot and I'll miss you ever day. I'll move on though, and don't worry I'll watch out for Yasuo. He'll have a life we never did. Good bye sweet sister of mine." He switched Yasuo so the newborn was by his shoulder but he was still supporting the neck area. He walked back over to where his family was. After one final round of good byes they stepped back as a cloud formed under them to take them home.
"Good-bye Inuyasha. Remember, If its not forgotten then it is not gone!" Onyx yelled. They watched as the group disappeared.
"Now we have to have a party," Onyx decided.
"Why?" Kaze asked.
"Tomorrow's our birthday." Wojna replied.
"Oh, How old are you going to be?" Chikyu wondered.
"Um….19?" Onyx lied running away, Wojna followed. In all truth the two didn't look a day older than 16.
"Is it just me or is our new leaders the weirdest things ever," Kori wondered.
"They're weird."
-Near nightfall-
"Koichi wake up!" Inuyasha said waking his elder son.
"What?" Koichi mumbled groggily.
"We're almost home."
Koichi shot his head up and his mouth dropped open at the castle in front of him. It was huge and even from the outside you could tell it was elegant.
"I think I'm going to like this place." Koichi stated. Sesshomaru smirked.
"I hope so."
-Elsewhere-
A now regenerated Naraku walked into a dark, hidden, supposedly abandoned palace. A black hair Miko walked out to greet him.
"Welcome back Lord Naraku. I hope the new hide out is to your liking."
"It is fine, Kikyo," Naraku replied looking around, "Where's our guest?"
"Locked up." Kikyo replied leading him into the back of the palace. Sitting there with dirty clothes was a girl with long white hair and glaring golden eyes.
"How are we doing today, Sashiko?" Naraku taunted.
"Let me go, Naraku. They're going to figure out you're alive." Sashiko hissed.
"I don't see how. Since I did die for a moment any curse I had placed was lifted. Including the one on that monk, Miroku." Naraku laughed, "Nobody knows you're alive, Sashiko. Everyone thinks you're dead."
"Let me out of here!" Sashiko growled.
"I will. Once I know you're loyal to me."
"I will never be loyal to you!" She screamed, growing more and more angry. How could he think she would ever listen to him.
"I don't know about that. All I need is the right kind of Leverage." he smirked, entering her cell, a gleam in his eyes Sashiko hasn't seen since a human had that look when she was four. She couldn't hold back her screams.
-The End-
That's right the end, story over, no more, nothing, all gone.
