I don't own Inuyasha.

The Yōkai Child

A pack is a family for life part three

It was strange being carried back from the cliffs in Koga's arms. But she felt better holding on to Shippo who seemed no to care. About who she was or why she was able to move the she did. Than there was the problem of Ryuu and the silver hair yokai. But they were pushed to the back of her mind as she was set on her feet. As a the whole pack came at her. Each of them thanked her for helping to kill the Bird's. She blushed at the attention she was receiving. While Inuyasha was left to stand outside the entrance to their den.

Shippo was laughing at Inuyasha on the inside. Since he deserved what he got for trying to kidnaped his big sis. Koga was enjoying the sight of watching Kagome get along so well with his pack. He had never thought about how his pack accepted his women. That was until now that was it seemed as everyone looked so bright and happy.

Sesshomaru frown at the sight of his father. He couldn't believe this was the same male that had ruled over the west.

His father sat in an oak, where two children sat around him. The first was a boy around ten with shaggy black hair that was dripping wet. The other was a girl around the same age. She had light brown hair and big green eyes, she was the first to see him.

"Who are you?" she ask as Sesshomaru came closer to their little group. He glared at the girl who started to cry.

"Still as brash as ever with the ladies, Sesshomaru." his father said as he soothed the little girl. The glare he shot him was accompanied by a small glimmer in his eyes most would never notice. "So what's her name and is she yokai or human son?" this knocked Sesshomaru off guard as his father chuckled at his expression since he never showed his emotions.

"Well I believe I have found the Black Inu father." he said with that same look in his eyes. Inu no Taisho couldn't believe his emotionless son was in love, but there was more.

Sesshomaru seen his father's face go from calm to panic striken. "This is bad if it awakens an no one is around to stop the release..." his father trailed off as he got up. He looked at the two of them with a strained smile. He wished to have a little more time to himself but things that needed his attention was a never ending list.

"I need you to fetch the old man Luna." he said to the little girl who was suddenly gone. In her place was a small fairy she flew around them gracefully for a moment as she found what she was looking for.

The boy looked up at him expectantly. "And what about me?" he asked almost hurt at having nothing to do.

"I need you to tell the king I have decided to go back early, since something important needs my attention." he said to the boy who looked like he crawled out of a pool of water. Sesshomaru watched as the boy changed in to a horse and jump right in to the water.

"Father what was that boy just now." he asked in wonder.

"Oh he is just a young kelpie. I was helping to look after him. Now son you have to tell me has the Black Inu transformed?"

"Yes over eleven times." his father faltered at the number.

"What! What do you mean by over eleven times. There is just once and than it is completely out of control!" his father exclaimed as he paced back and forth. "Where is that old man." he growled to himself as he thought about what his son had said.
