Chapter 4

It was early the next morning and everyone was training for the upcoming battle. Kagome herself was meditating along with Madara, or at least she was trying to. "You know it doesn't help if you are putting on the Tobi persona and being annoying" huffed out Kagome finally giving up on meditating. "But the Tobi is a good boy and enjoys watching his little goddess. The Tobi missed his little goddess while he was watching the enemies" Kagome shook her head and sighed. "Alright, let's go check on the others" Kagome had been under a lot of stress lately. She never really complained about her destiny, but every once in a while it would be nice to just relax without someone trying to kill her. Kagome was deep in thought about random various things when she came to a conclusion. "I think I will leave Koro and Mizuki here when we go on to our next adventure. Mizuki has become rather fond of Marissa and Koro has become attached to Tabby" stated Kagome. "I think that would be a good idea. The Simi would have some new friends to play with" said Simi as she, Ash, and Savitar appeared.

"I'll probably have to talk to them and tell them not to transform unless it's an emergency. I don't know how the populace would take seeing a giant teddy bear with wings. At least Koro has more sense and knows when to transform and when not to" continued Kagome. "Speaking of Koro and Tabitha, she has become restless" stated Ash. Kagome looked at him and shook her head. "She's too stubborn, but I suppose I could let her down here. Although, if anything happens to her Manda Panda will have my head" grumbled out Kagome as she made Tabby and Koro appear. "Finally, I didn't know how long I could take it up there. Don't get me wrong it's nice and everything, it's just way too peaceful" stated Tabby. "Well Tabby Cat that's the point. It's a place where no problems can reach" huffed out Kagome.

"You still remember those ridiculous nicknames" pouted out Tabby. "Of course, how could I forget? The first time I met you, you were rather catlike" stated Kagome. "Excuse me for the interruption but another wave of lesser demons is on the way" stated Zetsu as he appeared from the floor. "All right you know the drill" stated Kagome as she and Madara headed out to once again defeat more demons. "All right some action. I thought they weren't going to attack until the end of the week" stated Tabby. "Naraku does whatever he wants to and Tabby, be careful" stated Kagome as she place a barrier around the ranch.

There was a mixture of different kinds of demons and they were dealt with quickly. Madara was always captivated by Kagome when she fought. He was watching her while defeating his enemies, when he began to sense something off about her. He scented the air and realized that her scent was slightly off and he asked is inner beast why. Toga had told him that if he didn't know something to ask his inner beast. His inner beast awoke and Madara let him take control for a moment, his inner beast scented the air and his eyes widened. "Go to our mate. She is with pup, she must be protected" Madara eyes widened as he finished his enemies off quickly and went over to her. "We need to talk" he whispered in her ear. She nodded to him as they both surveyed the area.

It was later in the evening when Madara and Kagome sat down to talk. "Koi, you're pregnant" stated Madara. Kagome's eyes widened, "Well the timing couldn't be worse" Kagome was starting to become extremely stressed Calm our mate down. She'll hurt the pup if she doesn't "Kagome love you need to calm down. All that stress isn't good for the pup. We'll be able to protect him/her. You're a goddess for Christ sake and well I am not a bad protector myself" said Madara as he held her nuzzling the mating mark. Kagome had calmed down, "You're right. I don't think we should tell anyone about this yet. The less people that know, the less danger the pup will be in" stated Kagome and Madara agreed. "We should at least tell you father, mother, and brother" said Madara. "You're right" Madara told her to rest, while he went to tell her mother. Her mother had taken it rather well and agreed that in order for the pup's safety that it should remain a secret for now. Madara had returned and had summoned Toga and Sesshomaru. Those two had also agreed with their choice on not announcing it until the Naraku in this time period was dealt with.

-Time Skip: The day of the battle-

Everyone was on edge. Naraku was supposed to show today and Kagome was ready, but everyone else mainly Madara, Toga, and Sesshomaru were on edge. Kagome had insisted because it was her destiny that she needed to see this through.

It was about the seventh wave of lesser demons and daimons that had decided to aid Naraku. Kagome was getting irritated, "You know just once it would be great if Naraku could attack directly and not wait until we are exhausted. Granted we have a lot of help this time" It was at that moment that everyone on the battlefield could feel the sinister presence. The daimons were beside themselves, they had never met Naraku. They just sided with the lesser demons. The daimons had fled and Kagome told Ash to get his dark hunter out of there. Ephiny, Kyrian, and Julian were about to protest when Kagome had told them that Naraku was like nothing that they have faced before. Savitar had pulled back most of his Were's. The only people left on the battlefield were Kagome, Madara, Toga and Sesshomaru. Toga and Sesshomaru were dealing with the onslaught of lesser demons. Kagome had placed Vane, Kyrian, Julian, and Ephiny behind her barrier since they refused to leave. Tabby was also placed behind the barrier much to her dismay.

"Naraku it's time to end this" shouted Kagome. "Ku ku ku. Why Kagome we meet again" said Naraku with a dark grin on his face. "That man is pure evil" whispered Tabby as she was beginning to find his presence suffocating. By this time Toga and Sesshomaru were finished with the lesser demons, all that was left was Naraku. Everyone was staring at him intently waiting for him to make his move. Naraku simply stood there and smirked. Kagome narrowed her eyes as she felt an attack nearing her barrier. "Madara he's going to attack the barrier and it will only hold once" Madara nodded and communicated it to Toga and Sesshomaru. At the precise moment Naraku's tentacles shot toward the barrier Toga and Sesshomaru were there and Madara and Kagome went forward to Naraku. The barrier blocked the first of the tentacles while Sesshomaru and Toga took out the rest. They turned to the group and told them to get back. Koro transformed and took Tabby to the skies. "Katashi, get them off the ground" commanded Kagome. Katashi appeared and took Vane, Kyrian, and Julian to the skies where they could observe from a safe distance.

Kagome and Madara were becoming exhausted. "We need to end this soon" Madara stated. Kagome nodded. "Saya, ReiYuki, Sylph, Ishkur it is time to attack" commanded Kagome. Kagome readied her bow. Saya sent a flaming tornado, ReiYuki added ice to the tornado, Sylph added wind, Ishkur added lightning. Their combined attack created an elemental tornado that ripped through Naraku. Kagome released her arrow that was laced with her purification powers and Madara used So'unga. When the dust settled Kagome purified his remains and felt his soul dissipate from the plane. Everyone had landed and that is when Vane sensed that she was pregnant. Kagome had kept a scent barrier around her pup so that no one except the select few would know of her condition. "You let her fight while she was pregnant" asked Vane. "It was my choice. After all it's my destiny" stated Kagome before she began to collapse. Madara had caught her and transported her to her personal domain. Due to the fact that Madara was married and mated to her he could teleport to her domain without her assistance.

Kagome slept for a week and Madara refused to leave her side. Everyone had pretty much gotten over the fact that she fought while she was pregnant. "How long have I been out?" asked Kagome as she stretched and placed a hand over her belly. "A week; how are you feeling" asked Madara. "Physically, I am fine. I could use some food though" said Kagome as she went to stand. Madara assisted her to the main room where everyone was still hanging out. "Oh right I have to take them back" stated Kagome. "Oh no you don't" Madara stated "I could have sent them back but they didn't want to go back" Kagome just shook her head and sat down and ate. She and the girls talked some in her garden.

-Time Skip-

"Madara, it's time" stated Kagome as she once again winced in pain. Kagome had decided that she wanted to give birth at her ranch. Madara had begun to pace and was frantic. Kagome was getting irritated. "Men, I swear, they can face a battle with a deadly enemy, but when it comes to childbirth they are helpless" huffed out Kagome to no one in particular. She then looked at her bracelet and practically yelled into, "Grace, Amanda, and anyone else who is listening. Could you please come over quickly. It's time and Madara is beside himself" Almost immediately all her friends and their counterparts were there. Ayame had shown up and ushered all the men out into the hall. Toga, Sesshomaru, and Shippo were just shaking their heads at Madara's antics. "You know if you walk anymore you'll put a hole in the ground" stated Shippo. Madara just turned and growled at him. "Kit I would not antagonize him" warned Sesshomaru. It was at that moment that Rin had popped her head out. "She's doing fine. It should be any minute and she told me to tell you that if you don't leave Madara alone that she will hide all the candy in the world and that because she is the Goddess of Time she would have all the time in the world to make it happen" and with that Rin went back in the room. Shippo was in shock, "She wouldn't really hide all the candy in the world would she" Everyone just shook their heads at him.

It was several hours later that crying was heard, "You can come in know. You have twins, a boy and a girl" stated Kikyo who had arrived half way through the birthing process. Madara had gone in; "This one is Satori and the boy will be Daisuke" Kagome smiled and agreed. They all fell asleep that night and slept well.

It was several years later and Satori and Daisuke were five now. Kagome was given a little bit of a break to raise her kids before she continued on her quest to bring Naraku down. There were three more souls to defeat. Kagome and Madara had told their children about their quest, so that the children would understand if their parents had to go away for a while. Kagome had made plans with her mother that if they were called away that she would watch over them for her. Toga and Sesshomaru would also watch over them as well as see to their training. Kagome would have to teach Satori about her purification powers and Madara would have to teach both of them the Sharingan. Small communicators were given to her children once they were old enough to speak. That way Kagome could keep in contact with them.

Kagome and Madara had just brought the children over to Bride's for a party. She and the girls were always throwing parties for no other reason than just to hang out and have fun. Kagome's children got along quite well with all the other children. Toga, Sesshomaru, and her mother were there as well. Her mother had come for a visit to spend time with her daughter because these days it seemed she didn't get that much of a break. It was near the party end and they were using the mirror to get back to the ranch. As soon as Toga, Sesshomaru, Satori, Daisuke, and Kagome's mother arrived at the ranch Satori had noticed that her mother and father were not there. Daisuke had sensed that they were going someplace else as soon as they entered the mirror. "Where's kaa-san and tou-san?" asked Satori. "I think they went on their next adventure" said Daisuke as they both embraced each other and went to their rooms. "They will be fine. Nothing can hurt mama and papa" stated Satori. Toga, Sesshomaru, and Kagome's mother were amazed at how well the children were taking this.

-Madara and Kagome's POV-

As soon as they entered the mirror they just knew something was off. When the light had faded they found themselves to be eleven year olds and had landed right next to an angry tree. Kagome simply went and put her hand on the tree and spoke to it, "It's alright, and we are not here to harm you"

"I should think not my dear" stated an elderly voice.
