Chapter 10: Five Years Later
It had been five years since the twins had been born. Yatsumaru and Kyana were five years old. Inuyasha and Kagome were still happily married; but the almost impossible had happened. While they were in Kaede's village, Sesshomaru decided to pay them a visit. Kagome decided to stay in the feudal era to raise her children with Inuyasha. Kikyo the undead miko was not too pleased by that fact, she could often come to the village, and demand that Inuyasha ditch Kagome. Kikyo also told them, why have the copy when you could have the original. But as Kagome saw it, she was no one's copy. In fact, because she turned into a youkai, she was better then the original.
Sesshomaru did visit the village, and with two four year olds. Sesshomaru had told them that the children were his pups. He had mated a demoness named Kiona, she was a artic wolf demoness. Kagome didn't think it was possible for Sesshomaru to mate someone that was a wolf. She thought that he hated wolves. But that wasn't the case at all.
The first pup of Sesshomaru's was named Kenta. He had long silver hair to his waist, ice blue eyes with golden specks, two magenta stripes on his cheeks, wrists, shoulders, thighs and ankles. He wore a black fighting kimono (that looked like Youko Kurama's). He had on black boots, and of course since he looked a little like Sesshomaru, had his poker face to perfection. There wasn't a single emotion on his face.
The second pup, was named Sena. She had long snow white hair, ice blue eyes with golden specks, she had two stripes the color of ice blue on her cheeks, wrists, waist, shoulders, thighs and ankles. In the middle of both of the pup's foreheads was a ice blue crescent moon outlined with a darker blue. She wore a black Chinese fighting dress with slits on the sides to allow better movement.
Kagome couldn't believe it, but they both looked exactly like Sesshomaru minus the eyes. Walking out of the shadows of the trees, was of course Sesshomaru's mate Kiona. She had long thigh length snow white hair, ice blue eyes, with ice blue stripes on both her cheeks, wrists, waist, shoulders, thighs and ankles. She wore a red Chinese fighting dress, with slits on the sides to allow movement. Her hair was tied in a high ponytail.
"I see Sesshomaru, you've brought your family here to meet us." Kagome said assuming that was what he was doing.
"Why would this Sesshomaru have need to visit? Kiona had forced me to do so. She wanted to meet Inuyasha. When I told her that he had a mate also, she wanted to meet you. Where are your little ones?" Sesshomaru said, then looked around when he didn't see Yatsumaru and Kyana anywhere around.
"Oh, Kyana is helping Kaede pick herbs and Yatsumaru is training with Inuyasha." Kagome replied.
Sesshomaru nodded, "Kiona this is Kagome the shikon miko. She is also Yatsumaru's and Kyana's mother." Sesshomaru said introducing his mate to Kagome.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Lady Kiona." Kagome said smiling.
"The pleasure is all mine, Kagome. I've heard many things about you before I met Sesshomaru." Kiona said smiling back.
"Mommy!" a voice yelled, Kagome turned around to see her daughter Kyana running to her with a smile on her face.
"Yes, Kyana?" Kagome asked the little girl.
"Can I go train with papa too?" Kyana asked.
"No, Kyana. It is much too dangerous for you. How about I train you instead. I'll teach you all I know," Kagome answered.
"Why does Yatsu-nii get to train with papa and I don't?" Kyana whined as she pouted.
"Because, it will make him a strong warrior someday. Kyana, no more whining." Kagome said in a motherly tone that left no room for arguments.
"Daddy, who is that?" Sena said as she noticed Kyana standing beside Kagome.
"That is your cousin, Kyana." Sesshomaru said.
"Wow, Kyana is sure pretty for a cousin of mine daddy." Kenta said bluntly making Kyana blush.
"I know right, it's almost shocking how pretty she is. I bet she'll be a beautiful woman when she grows up!" Sena said with a smile.
"See? Boys aren't all that bad, Kyana plus, you and Sena would make great friends." Kagome said as she looked down at her daughter.
Kyana looked at her mother, she frowned. She knew the story her mother had told her about how her father treated her mother before they even mated. She wasn't sure if boys were all the same or if they constantly used women in general to get what they want.
But as far as she seen it, Sena and Kenta were prince and princess to the Western Lands. So wouldn't that make her some kind of royalty too because her father was Lord Sesshomaru's half-brother? So Sesshomaru was her uncle. How exciting!
Sena was 4, and Kenta was 3. Kyana was 5, Yatsumaru was 5. They were the oldest between the cousins. Not that Kyana minded.
"Sesshomaru? I didn't know you'd be visiting today." Inuyasha said as he arrived back in the village.
Sesshomaru nodded, "Kiona wanted to meet Kagome. This is Sena and Kenta my son and daughter." Sesshomaru said.
Inuyasha's eyes widened, he was a uncle? Why hadn't he known about that?
"Hello, Kenta and Sena. I'm Inuyasha your uncle." Inuyasha said smiling.
"Hello." Sena and Kenta said in unison.
"Kagome! Ye should be training!" the old miko Kaede said.
"Ah, sorry Kaede. Well I gotta go!" Kagome said as she ran off to train.
Inuyasha, Sesshomaru and Kiona raised their eyebrows. "I didn't know Kagome trained." Inuyasha said.
"She's been training for six months now." Kaede answered.
They all nodded, Inuyasha smiled. His kids were growing up fast, now he was an uncle. Didn't think that would happen in a million years. Somehow Kiona had melted his heart. Maybe he learned how to love. His voice was softer instead of that cold tone he always used.
It was truly shocking, but he found that he didn't mind being an uncle. Yatsumaru was learning quickly in his training. He was proud of him.
"Inuyasha!" a voice screeched, he groaned when he recognized the voice as Kikyo's. He suddenly wondered what that irritating woman wanted now.
"What Kikyo?" Inuyasha asked raising an eyebrow at the detestable woman.
"I've missed you!" Kikyo said as she attempted to kiss him.
"I so did not miss you, bitch. Now get off me!" Inuyasha said growling low in his throat.
"Inuyasha! How could you say that to me? I thought you love me!" Kikyo screeched.
"I could never love you Kikyo." Inuyasha said with a blank look on his face, inside his head he was screaming with annoyance.
"Kikyo, leave my mate alone." Kagome said appearing out of nowhere.
"Inuyasha is mine. So why should I leave him alone!?" Kikyo said as she scowled at Kagome with hatred.
"Actually, he's mine. You don't want to be my personal scratching post do you?" Kagome said as she flexed her claws.
"Ugh!" Kikyo said as she stomped off somewhere. When she was gone, everyone sighed in relief.
In fact Kagome didn't mind using Kikyo as a scratching post, it would save everyone a lot of trouble. Kagome laughed internally, that would surely be amusing. 'Amusing indeed.' Kagome thought to herself.
