Chapter 18

Kurama was busy making lunch for his foster kids when his baby girl screamed as his baby boy laughed evilly. The two weren't even a month old and they already knew who the evil twin was and who the good twin. Kenny was there and quickly took over for his once-foster father. Going into his room where the twins were in their play crib and found his baby girl crying as she tried to escape the crib and her brother. As soon as she saw her daddy she wailed for him to get her away her brother who was throwing toys at her.

"Stop throwing toys at your sister Hideaki," Kurama told his son as he shook his finger at the baby before he picked up his baby girl. "Don't worry Ayaka daddy's here."

As soon as Ayaka was on his chest she grabbed a fist full of his hair and began to suck on it happily. Natashi's voice suddenly filled the house, "I'm home!"

At hearing her voice Hideaki immediately cried out for her. After Natashi greeted her foster kids she went to their room and picked up her son as she asked her husband, "How was he today?"

"He was good until he started to throw their toys at Ayaka," Kurama told her.

"He did," she looked at Hideaki and gave him a frown. "You're not supposed to do that with your sister."

Hideaki just gave her an innocent look as Kurama and Natashi went into the kitchen to help with lunch.

"Did nof!"

"Did too!"

"Did nof!"

"Did too!"

"Did nof!"

"Did too!"

"Did n-"

"You two stop arguing right not!" Kurama ordered the twins as he looked up the newspaper.

"She started!" "He started!" they both said at the same time as they pointed at each other.

He looked at now five year-old twins that just stopped arguing. Ayaka and Hideaki were about two but they looked five since they had Youko and Takashi blood in them they aged quickly but not too quickly. The two of them were very smart for being two but Ayaka had a speech problem, she couldn't pronounce her t's and replaced them with f's.

"I don't care who started it I'm stopping it! Now go do your homework!"

"Yes daddy," they both answered before going up to their room.

With a sigh Kurama sipped his tea and read the paper until he heard familiar voices behind him.

"Looks like everything's going according to our future's past," future Ayaka told her brother.

Kurama looked at them and saw them leaning against the door frame he was intrigued by the sad eyes Ayaka looked at him with.

Future Hideaki smiled at Kurama and said, "Our business here is done."

"You mean…" Kurama trailed off.

Ayaka nodded, "Yes, we're going back to our time."

"Why are you sad?"

Ayaka and Hideaki looked at each other for a long moment before it seemed they came to an agreement. Ayaka answered, "We're not supposed to tell you but you have a right to know…when our past selves become the age we are…in demon years…"

Hideaki picked up where she left off, "You and mother will not be with them anymore."

Kurama's eyes widened, "What do you mean?"

"…the disease will not only affect a female's reproductive system but also everywhere else," Ayaka informed him, "including the male system."

"Non-none of this will happen right away then?"

Hideaki shook his head, "No, but it'll start happening soon then spread because of how stupid humans are as they try to get closer to longevity. The Takashi's are the ones to undo what the humans did but not before we lose you two…"

"That's why you were so determined to do what you did," Kurama stared at them with a new understanding.

Ayaka nodded as she tried not to cry, "Yes…we don't what to lose you two…"

"You're trying to rewrite history."

Both nodded and Hideaki looked away, "You two fostered so many kids and many of them have made great things happen in the future because of you…"

Ayaka took over because now her brother was trying not to cry, "But we don't want to lose either of you! That's why we stayed here longer then we're supposed to hoping that we could change the history books…but we won't know until we get back to the future!"

With a sigh Kurama said, "It's just like your mother says, 'Let the future come and then bitch slap it'."

The twins laughed and nodded before they turned to leave but then stopped. They suddenly turned and hugged Kurama with all their might, savoring the last tough they would have with him.

Ayaka cried and said, "I love you daddy…"

"As do I," Hideaki informed him, "and no matter what my past self does know this, on the day you died there was so many things I regretted that I did to you. I regretted it for five years and I always loved you."

"As did I with mother, I said so many bad things to her that I could never take back on that same day."

After a moment Kurama returned their hug none of them noticed the twins listening to them the whole time. Looking at one another they soon began to think of a way to help their parents.
