Chapter 6

9 months later

The day of delivery was fast approaching. Inuyasha was starting to stress out. Kagome and the whole rest of the village was trying to calm him down, but it wasn't working.

"What if something happened to you Kagome? What if something happened to you and the baby?" Inuyasha snapped one day, "What if I couldn't protect you?"

"Inuyasha, I trust you." This caught him off guard, "I know you'll protect us, from everything."

Suddenly the earth shook. It shook again. And again.

"Dammit. This is just perfect." Inuyasha growled.

Miroku rushed into the house.

"Inuyasha, get ready. There's a demon coming and it's big." Miroku said.

"Yeah I know." Inuyasha said, he'd just caught its scent. "Can you get Kagome to your house? I know you and Sango can protect her. I'll take care of the demon."

"Fine. Will do. We'll bring Kaede too." Miroku said.

"Good, now get going." Inuyasha growled.

Miroku grabbed Kagome who was telling Inuyasha to be careful. They headed to Miroku's house. When they got there, Sango was already in battle gear and the children were in the back of the house.

"Stay here with Kagome." Miroku told Sango, "I'm going to get Kaede. All this stress could put Kagome into labor and then we'll need Kaede's help." Then he ran out to get Kaede, passing Inuyasha who was on his way to meet this demon. They nodded at each other and kept running.

Inuyasha arrived at a clearing. The demon was there. It was the size of 5 full grown men and had huge horns on its head. Inuyasha had managed to intercept the demon far enough away from the village so that no one would get hurt. He drew his Tetsusaiga.

"You picked the wrong village to mess with demon!" Inuyasha growled.

"Ha! What could a half-demon do to me?" The demon roared. "Half-breeds aren't good enough for anything, but my dinner!"

The demon was faster than Inuyasha had expected. He barely avoided the punch, which left a massive crater in the clearing.

"You're gonna regret that you bastard! WIND SCAR!" Inuyasha roared, swing his sword through the air.

Five streaks of light left the sword and struck the demon. The demon resisted at first, but eventually lost its footing and was obliterated by the blast. Inuyasha spat bitterly on the ground.

"No one threatens Kagome!"

Inuyasha walked back and as he entered back into the village the sound hit him. It was a baby crying. He raced to Miroku and Sango's house and threw open the door and there they were. The two most important people in his life were laying on a bed in front of him. He was speechless, so Kagome spoke for him.

"Come meet your baby girl."

He walked over, fell to his knees, and took the girl into his arms. Her name was Saiai. She was the most beautiful thing that he'd ever seen.
