Chapter 5

It's been some time since that night. Inuyasha had grown up in Aiko and Tougas eyes and was now a strong young man. The Phoenix and the dog Generals relationship continued to further and blossom as the years went by. They had decided not to have more kids and were happy. Surprisingly Ryuuko had gotten Kimi pregnant and now the fiery bird was temperamental and was setting things on fire. Kimi would get angry over the slightest of things. She eventually accepted Aiko's wishes of not having kids after she hit her in the head multiple times to get her point across.

Aiko was floating quietly in the air and she sighed happily as she looked all around at the beautiful sky above her and the wonderful fields of lowers and lakes below her.

"Mom!" Inuyasha yelled as he ran quickly. There was smoke trailing behind him. "Stop her!"
Kimi was flying quickly and was cawing loudly in anger as she followed Inuyasha. "Get back here you mutt!"

Aiko cawed and flew down. She had grown more stern and protective of Inuyasha over the years. "What on earth are you two doing!?" She also had however gotten used to how Inuyasha and Kimi fought more like brother and sister than nephew and Aunt.

Inuyasha went behind Aiko. "Nothing all I said was she was getting bigger. Aunt Kimi just got mad for no reason!" He looked over her shoulder.

Kimi had landed and narrowed her eyes. She grumbled making her plumage puff out. "I'm not fat!"

Aiko sighed. "Kimi you're pregnant. No one said you were fat." she looked at her adopted son. "I'm gonna have to teach you how to talk to women."

"What did I do?" He muttered and folded his arms.

Kimi grumbled and went to the tree and jumped onto the branch. She sat there and glared at Inuyasha. "Mutt..."

Inuyasha rolled his eyes. "Hey mom have you seen dad?" He asked. Touga has been away for some time now.

Aiko looked at him. "He should hopefully come back soon...he said he was visiting Totosai to prepare something." But Touga was visiting Totosai to have the Tessaiga prepared for Inuyasha. Inuyasha nodded and stared at Kimi.

Aiko looked at her sister. "You know I hate when you call him that."

Kimi grumbled and was still puffed up in agitation. "Whatever...you know I don't mean anything bad by it." She muttered and her stomach growled. "Where's that fucking lizard with my food. I swear can't trust no guy to get the job done. First didn't want me to hunt because I'm pregnant, like I don't fucking care about that. I'm hungry as fuck I don't care about that." She ranted lowly.

Aiko sighed. "He should be back soon."

As if on cue Ryuuko flew back with food for his mate. "I'm sorry love. Damn Boar gave more of a fight."

Aiko sighed. "He should be back soon."

As if on cue Ryuuko flew back with food for his mate. "I'm sorry love. Damn Boar have more of a fight."

Ryuuko chuckled and kissed her cheek. "You're welcome you know."

Her eyes twitched and she set Ryuuko on fire then looked away. The fire didn't harm him so she didn't care.

Ryuuko sighed and watched the fire dissipate and he relaxed as he watched his mate eat.

-Meanwhile-

Aiko sighed and went to Inuyasha. "Look...don't bring up your aunt's weight while she's pregnant okay? It's a sore subject for all women. Their weight I mean."

Inuyasha nodded. "Alright mom."

Aiko smiled. "Now you relax, I'm going back to my flying." She flew up high into the air. 'Touga you need to hurry back..'

Miles away Touga was speaking to his eldest Sesshomaru. He was trying to persuade him into forming a bond with his brother. "Sesshomaru...why are you refusing to acknowledge Inuyasha as your brother?" He raised a brow and folded his arms

"Why should I acknowledge some half breed mutt who follows a molting bird around?" Sesshomaru said coldly to his father.

"Don't you dare insult Aiko she is my mate and never insult your brother." Touga growled deeply. "Do not think I won't beat you down Sesshomaru just because you are my son."

Sesshomaru hummed and flexed his claws. "Fine. If that half breed can hold his own in a battle against me...I'll consider it." He looked to him. "I still don't see your reasoning with attempting to cross breed with a bird."

Inclining his head to the side he observed Sesshomaru for a moment. "Find yourself a mate son and you'll understand my reasoning." Touga turns his back and looked at the distance for a while

Sesshomaru just huffed annoyed and looked at his father. "It seems you had Totosai give Tessaiga a new hilt."

"Yes of course." He nods and didn't spare Sesshomaru a glance. "Follow and you will formally be introduced to your brother...and it's not a request." Touga jumped into the air and started to hover as he went back to Aiko. Sesshomaru took in a deep breath and let out an annoyed sigh as he followed his father. Aiko was flapping her wings and smiling at them and she flew down quickly to try and gain speed.

Touga looked up and held out his hand and caught Aiko as she fell to his level. He waited until she was in her human guise to pull her to him. "Greetings." He mutters deeply and connected his forehead to hers.

Aiko blushed slightly and smiled. "I missed you..."

"I can tell." He kissed her lightly. "This is Sesshomaru my eldest and heir."

Sesshomaru only watched in silence and had his eyes narrowed.

Aiko smiled. "I was wondering when I'd finally meet you."

Sesshomaru didn't answer right away and just grunted.

Touga barked and growled at Sesshomaru. "Answer her now."

Sesshomaru eyes twitched. "Salutations phoenix."

Aiko just nodded slowly. 'Slightly cold. As I expected...' She thought to herself and went to Sesshomaru and flicked him in the nose. "You're a lord Sesshomaru. Act like one and have manners. I often have to do this to your father for...lewd comments and your brother for the wrong ones. Don't make me do it to you as well."

Sesshomaru scrunched up his nose. "Do not touch me..." He said simply and plainly.

Aiko blinked and stayed composed and looked to her mate. "I assume he is always like this?"

Touga nods. "Blame his mother."

Aikos eye twitched. "Ahh yes you've told me about that woman." She kept her calm and looked at Sesshomaru. "May I ask why I have finally been able to meet you?"

"I didn't wish to meet you." Sesshomaru said coldly. "Father ordered me here and I am here." He looked down at Aiko and then looked away. "I am only here to fight the whelp so he can prove his worth."

Aiko got a little steamed to say the least and she looked at him coldly. "You say that about him again it won't be pretty Sesshomaru." She flapped her large impressive wings and flew down to find her son. "Inuyasha!"

"Whelp means puppy idiot bird." He rolled his eyes and looked away.

Inuyasha sprung up and looked around. He followed her voice and looked up. "Mom?"

Aiko landed in front of him and smiled. "Come with me...there's someone here."

Sesshomaru landed with Touga and grunts at Inuyasha. "So...we meet."

Inuyasha blinked and sniffed first. 'My brother?' He thought and showed off a childish grin. "Awesome, I finally get to meet you aniki."

Sesshomaru just huffed. "Shorter than I thought you'd be."

Inuyasha became flustered and his cheek became red with embarrassment. "Yeah so...so what do you do?" He asked excitedly

Sesshomaru just looked at him coldly. "More of a brat then I expected."

Aikos eyes glowed. "Touga...control your son or I will."

Inuyasha grumbled a little. "All I asked was what you did for a living." He looked up at Sesshomaru.

Touga shook his head. "Let Inuyasha handled it...he's a growing pup Aiko. You can't keep him as a child. He must handle himself when there's an argument."

"I'm the lord of the western lands..." He drawled and looked at his younger brother

Aiko sighed and went to her mate. "Better not hurt my puppy..."

"Aiko, let him grow." Touga whispers and kisses her forehead.

"You're a lord!? That's awesome." Inuyasha grinned. "So you're like really strong then huh aniki?"

Sesshomaru grunted. "I suppose..." 'Too happy for a hanyou...'

Aiko sighed and laid her head on Tougas shoulder and kissed his neck.

"Amazing, can you teach me." Inuyasha had his hands behind his back just looking up at Sesshomaru while smiling. "Please?"

"Don't get me started... or else you won't be able to walk or fly." He whispers lowly. "Wouldn't want daddy to do that huh?" He grinned as he kissed her neck in return.

Sesshomaru was going to say something before getting disgusted by his father. "Perverted old mutt."

Aiko blushed and flicked Tougas nose. "Shush...you know what that talk does to me..." She whispered

Touga chuckled and nipped her earlobe. "Then don't tempt me."

Inuyasha ears twitched. "What did father mean aniki?" He asked him softly. He was still young and had yet to have 'the talk'.

Sesshomaru blinked and looked to Touga. "You have still yet to give him that speech? You can't be this naive little brother."

Aiko blushed and flicked his nose again. "Inuyasha your father is going to tell you later tonight."

Inuyasha tilted his head and furrowed his brows. He was confused for a moment until he thought about it. "No I'll ask Aunt Kimi...she'll tell me straight up." He walked away and went to find Kimi. "Aunt Kimi! Aunt Kimi!"

Touga eyes widen a bit. "Dear Kami don't ask that woman...she'll scare his mind."

Kimi's attitude from earlier had changed and was more lustful. She looked up from preening her feathers and saw Inuyasha bounding towards her. "Yes...puppy?"

Inuyasha stopped and looked at her. "What did father mean when he said..." He then went on and told Kimi everything.

Her eyes glinted and she jumped down from her perch and changed to a human. "Well you see. Women and men are meant to fuck or have sex. Men puts their cock or dick inside a woman's pussy or vagina. Then the man keeps thrusting..." She went on and on telling Inuyasha everything not sugarcoating anything. "Now a woman and woman and man and man on the other hand..." She continued talking and wasn't bothered by anything. "Now that's all."

Aiko sighed and rubbed her temples. "Dammit..." She mumbled cussing quietly which was a very rare occasion.

Inuyasha just blinked in shock and looked at his dad. "Eww..."

"Shut up...how did you think you was born puppy?" Kimi snickered "Or how I fucking ended up like this?" She pointed to her stomach. She looked up and saw Sesshomaru. "Oooh sexy...what's your name." She grins.

Touga sighs and rubbed his temples. 'Leave it to Kimi to be explicit.'

Ryuuko who was behind Kimi as she explained to Inuyasha the talk bristled with anger when she complimented Sesshomaru. Aiko gave her a look that clearly said 'What the fuck are you doing?'

Ignoring Ryuuko she grinned. "Ooh the silent and stoic type. One of my favorites. So looking for some fun." She glanced at Aiko and gave her. 'Hush! I'm horny and I want to fuck! Ryuuko won't fuck me so I'm making him jealous.' Look.

Touga wisely moved Inuyasha out of the way and covered his ears to stop him from asking questions.

Sesshomarus eye twitched. 'A horny pregnant one...worse than mother...'

Ryuuko growled. "Kimi…enough."

Kimi continued to ignore Ryuuko. She knew exactly what she was doing and walked up and touched Sesshomaru's mokomoko. "Never had a lord before." 'Hopefully that'll get him to carry me away and fuck me.'

Touga looked towards Aiko. "Your sister is crazy...I swear how in the world did you deal with her?"

Aiko was just in pure shock.

Sesshomaru sniffed. "You're with child and you're trying to seduce this Sesshomaru. What a whore of a bir-" Sesshomaru however didn't get to finish his sentence since Ryuuko sent him flying into a cliff.

Aikos eyes widened. "Inuyasha come with me. Now."

"Fucking dammit. I can't have nothing!" She raged and stomped away. "Fucking lizard won't fuck me cause I'm ugly and fat now...try to do something to get him to do it but no. He gets mad and has a tantrum." As she stomped away she left a trail of steam behind her.

Inuyasha eyes widen. "That...was cool..."

Aiko sighed. "No it wasn't." She went after her sister. "You realize Ryuuko won't have sex with you because you're supposed to have the egg soon and that would be dangerous for him to be with you."

"I don't care! There's other ways to fuck." Kimi growled and went to the hot springs and stripped down. She sat down in the hot water and folded her arms.

Aiko went after her sister and was done with her attitude and she looked at her. "Do you realize what you may have done? If I had done that to Touga he would leave me! Ryuuko is a dragon for Kamis sakes and they have a worst temper than dogs! Stop acting like a child! So you're not getting laid because he wants to protect you! Big deal! He loves you and doesn't want you or your child hurt and you do this!?" Aiko had never yelled like this before and she just shook her head and flapped her wings hard and flew away.

Kimi looked up in shock and stared at herself in the water. She thought about what she did and frowned. "I'm...a...fool. I don't deserve him." She covered her face and started to cry silently.

Meanwhile Ryuuko had calmed down and went to go find his mate the jealous and the hurt and anger still very prominent in his expression but once he saw his mate crying he forgot all about it. He stripped down and slowly got into the water with her and held her. "Why the tears fly bird?"

Kimi cried more and didn't look at him. "I-I'm sorry...I don't deserve you.."

Ryuuko said nothing and held his mate in his arms. "Stop."

"I'm sorry...it's just you haven't looked or touched me since I got pregnant.." Kimi whimpered and continued crying. "Fucking hormones."

Ryuuko kissed her cheek and pulled her into his lap where she could feel his erect member against her. "Fly bird..when I look at you this immediately happens...and I haven't made love to you because I don't want to harm the baby." He kissed her neck and held her close.

"Stupid...you should know phoenix and dragon eggs are extremely hard and is impenetrable." She frowned and blushed at him.

He chuckled and pushed into her slowly. "Yes but we also tend to get very rough very quickly..."he held her hips and slowly moved her up and down.

"I know...I'm sorry." She looked down and frowned. Ryuuko turned her head so he could kiss her and continued to slowly move her up and down making love to her.

-meanwhile-

Aiko was still flying still beaming with anger from deep within her she didn't know she had.

Touga looked up in the skies and saw his mate was furious. 'I think it's best I wait for a minute.' "Inuyasha go to Sesshomaru."

Inuyasha blinked and nodded. "Okay." He sniffs and went to find Sesshomaru.

Aiko saw a lowly demon terrorizing a family and it only just seemed to further her anger and she swooped down and attacked the demon and clawed it away from the family.

Touga went to find Aiko and saw what she was doing. When she got too far in her anger he went to her and brought down to the ground. "Enough." He kissed her.

Aiko took several deep breaths before calming down and ultimately crying softly in Tougas arms. "I...I said some really mean things to her.."

"I'm sure she knows you didn't mean it. Kimi is difficult but she knows you mean well." He kissed her forehead again. She sighed and laid her head on his shoulder.

"Your sister isn't a baby anymore Aiko. I'm sure she likes it when you are truthful to her." He rubbed her back. Aiko sighed and nuzzled her mate quietly and kissed his neck.

Weeks flew by since then and things had calmed down a lot. Inuyasha was still pestering Sesshomaru in teaching him. Kimi had laid one large egg. The egg was red in color and had intricate designs along the shell. Aiko had calmed down and apologized to Kimi profusely for her outburst of anger.

"You don't have to apologize...I know you didn't mean anything by it." Kimi mutters as she was in her phoenix form. She was sitting on the egg keeping it incubated.

Aiko smiled and nuzzled her. "Alright...if you say so."

"Ugh...I'm so bored being stuck here." She pouted. "How's Inuyasha getting along with Sesshomaru?"

Aiko sighed. "Fine I suppose...I'm not going to hang Sesshomaru by the neck for hurting my puppy so."

"Aiko stop calling him that. Inuyasha is a teenager now. Soon he'll go off on his own adventures. He's not gonna be wanting to stay curled up under you all his life." Kimi says softly. "He's gonna have to learn to take care of himself."

Aiko looked away not wanting to think about that. "I just worry...half demons aren't exactly favored in this world except by their parents..."

"And that's what you gave him...acceptance and love. Now he knows what type of woman or man to look for should he ever find a mate. Men go for women that are like their mothers." She says and looks down at her egg. "Come on! Hatch already. I bet you're gonna look like a lizard with feather wings."

Aiko chuckled at her sister and kissed her cheek. "The baby will watch don't worry..." She stood up. "Now I need to find Touga. He said something about a surprise." She flapped her wings and flew into the sky and waved at Ryuuko who swooped down covered in blood from his most recent kill. "Hope you're hungry.." As he quickly cooked a giant fish three times his own size with his flame.

Kimi grumbled. "Fuck yes I'm hungry! I've been sitting on this fucking egg for hours! Next time you're sitting your ass on it." She complained and grabbed a piece of fish with her beak.

Ryuuko chuckled and walked to her. "Why don't you take a break? I'll watch the egg."

"Finally." She jumped off it and started to fly around in circles. Ryuuko chuckled and sat on the egg to incubate it and keep it warm.

-With Aiko-

Touga had Totosai craft an elegant necklace for him to gift to Aiko. This was his anniversary gift to her. 'Hopefully she'll love it.'

Aiko kept flying enjoying the breeze before touching down on the ground near the area she had called home since she took Inuyasha as her own. She looked into the hut and saw no one. 'Must still be with Sesshomaru. But where's Touga...'

Touga was walking and had approached the hut. "Aiko." He said softly as he called out her name.

Aiko turned around and smiled. "There you are. I think that egg is about to hatch."

"Oh dear Kami...your niece or nephew are going to be hellions. Hopefully they won't have Kimi's...behavior." He muttered.

Aiko giggled. "If they are like how Kimi was as a child then it will be fine. I'm still worried Inuyasha will have your lewd mindset."

"I doubt it...he's spending a lot of time with Sesshomaru. I don't know why but he is." He shrugged. "Anyways I have a gift for you."

She looked at him and cocked her head to the side. "Why? Touga what did you do?"

"Just got you this." He pulled out a box that was tied in a ribbon. He held it out to her. "Happy anniversary."

She smiled and opened the box and her smile broadened. She walked up to him and gave him a loving kiss. "Thank you...I love it." She giggled and leaned into his ear. "Tonight you'll get yours..." She purred into his ear. Little did she know the necklace was to increase fertility for a given amount of time. He grinned lewdly. "I will look forward to it."

She giggled and she put the necklace on. "Well there is another one..." She went behind the hut and grabbed her gift for him. It was a sword and the hilt had her own feathers on it. "When I picked it up from Totosai for you I had him add some things.." She handed him the sword and when he took it out of its sheath the blade was inflamed.

Touga's eyes widen considerably. "You did not have to do this Aiko..." He took the sword and looked at it closely.

She giggled and kissed his cheek. "Don't care I wanted too."

Suddenly out of nowhere Ryuuko looked down at the egg and his eyes widened. "N-no way..KIMI!"

Aiko blinked and then it dawned on her. "T-the baby! It must be hatching!" She flapped her wings and started to fly to her sister's nest. Ryuuko lifted up the egg to show Kimi that it was hatching. Once it hatched it was a beautiful girl. She had some fathers like her mother and there were some on her tiny dragon wings as well.

Touga followed quickly behind her and stopped when he saw the egg crack in two. 'A girl?' He thought.

Kimi blinked and looked at the hatchling. "Eww...she's all slimy from the egg." She said plainly.

Aiko however squealed. "She's so cute." She hit her sister upside the head. "She's your daughter. You looked the same way when you hatched." The small baby girl looked up at Kimi and whimpered cutely and pointed at her.

"Ouch." She rubbed her head. "Um...what now? What am I supposed to do now?" Kimi was now confused more than ever.

"Pick up your child." Aiko kissed her sister's cheek and brought her closer to the baby

Kimi blushed and held the baby. She felt awkward and held her like Aiko did Inuyasha. "U-um what now?"

Aiko giggled. "Start cleaning her and then feeding her."

Ryuuko smiled and looked over his mate's shoulder.

"How?" She asked and slowly did what Aiko showed her to do. Inwardly she was panicking. 'W-what if I turn out like mother.'

The baby smiled at her mother and was giggling cutely. "Ma."

Kimi sat down and put the baby on the ground in front of her. She stared at her and didn't know what to do

Aiko smiled. "You'll know what to do…trust me it just happens." She looked at her niece and smiled. "Hello little one."

The baby looked up at Aiko and cried and reached for Kimi. "Ma!"

Kimi flinched a bit and reached for the baby. "No crying...I don't like crying." She mumbled.

The baby cooed happily in Kimi's arms. "Ma!" The baby nuzzled her mother's breast.

Kimi blushed and didn't know what to do. "First you need a name." She mutters. "Plumeria..." She mumbled. "It's a flower."

Ryuuko smiled and kissed his mate's cheek. "It suits her."

Aiko smiled softly and stood up and went to Touga. "Let's leave them be." Touga nodded in agreement.

Plumeria looked at her mother and started squeezing her hands together signaling she was hungry.

Kimi panicked. "W-what am I supposed to feed a phoenix-dragon hybrid?"

Ryuuko chuckled and pulled down her kimono to reveal Kimis breast. Plumeria immediately latched on and started sucking.

Kimi stuttered and blushed deeply. "What..." She shivered at the sensation.

Ryuuko chuckled. "It's natural love." He kissed her cheek and looked down at their child with love and happiness in his eyes. Kimi looked away feeling awkward about the situation. Ryuuko just chuckled and watched as Plumeria drank quietly before falling asleep in Kimi's arms.

She looked down at Plumeria and blushed. 'She's cute...but what if I'm a terrible mom.'

'You won't be..' A soft voice whispered in her ear.

'Who said that? Grandma is that you?' She looked around quickly

'Aye child..you've grown up so beautifully ye and ye sister..'

'Grandmother...I miss you. Why did you have to go.' She looked down sadly

'Child it was my time...but don't worry no longer I'll always be with ye.' She whispered before her soul wrapped around Kimi in a nice warmth.

'I-l promise to do better grandma...I promise I'll be good.' She wiped her eyes and nuzzled Plumeria. "I promise." She whispered.

Ryuuko looked to her. "Promise what?"

"N-nothing gecko...just a promise to grandmother." Kimi whispers

Ryuuko smiled and kissed her. "I love you."

Blushing Kimi looked up at him. "I don't understand why you do..." She looked away from him. "But I love you as well."

He chuckled and kissed their small child.

-Meanwhile-

The two left the new parents alone and went away from them. Touga had held Aiko hand. "You know...that baby was cute. I'm sure the baby can make Kimi levelheaded."

Aiko smiled. "I agree." She laid her head on his shoulder and sighed.

"Mmhm." He placed his hand on her back. Aiko smiled and leaned over to kiss her mate.

"Mom!" Inuyasha yelled and Aiko pulled away and saw him. "Yes Inuyasha sweetie?"

"Sesshomaru said you're not barren anymore." Inuyasha looked at her. "Does that mean I'm having a sister or another brother?"

Aiko blinked several times. "Wait what?"

Touga blinked. 'Dammit Sesshomaru...can't keep a fucking secret.' He looked at Inuyasha then at Aiko.

Aiko looked at Inuyasha. "What are you talking about?"

"Well Sesshomaru said your scent changed so it meant dad gave you your gift." Inuyasha said and Aiko looked at Touga.

"What's going on?"

"Inuyasha...hush go back to Sesshomaru." Touga grumbled.

"But dad is it-"

"Inuyasha go now..."

"Did I ruin the surprise?" Inuyasha tilted his head. Touga nodded and Inuyasha left and went back to Sesshomaru

Aiko looked at Touga and tapped her foot. "I'm waiting Inu no Taisho." She never called him by his full name unless it was serious.

Touga chuckled sheepishly. "The necklace makes the wearer fertile for a given amount of time."

Aikos eyes widened. "W-what.." She touched her stomach.

"You're fertile in the next...7 to 9 hours." Touga looked up at the sun's position in the sky to tell the time.

Aiko had a small tear and she flew at Touga tackling him to the ground and hugging him tightly.

"I knew you'd like it..." He coughs slightly and held her by her waist.

She straddled him and kissed him passionately and lovingly. "I love you.." She whispered and connected her lips with his again.

Touga grinned and he made long passionate love to Aiko throughout the day and didn't stop until it was night.

-With Inuyasha and Sesshomaru-

Inuyasha looked up at Sesshomaru. "Why was it bad I told mom?"

"Idiot you should've let her found out on her own." Sesshomaru looked down at Inuyasha.

Inuyasha grumbled. "You're the idiot."

He stared at him. "Do not back talk...now come." Sesshomaru started walking.

Inuyasha crossed his arms and followed his older brother.

'He listens which is good.' His eyes flickered down to Inuyasha. "I will not tolerate disrespect, disobedience, foolishness or childishness. You hold father's blood and you will not give the Taisho name a bad reputation." He mutters. "You will listen...if I am...to teach you."

Inuyasha nodded slowly and stood firm. "Mom already taught me how to fight."

"No, more than just fighting." He narrows his eyes. "More to fighting than just one style of combat..." He continues walking. "Come, you'll see your mother in 5 years."

"5 years!?" Inuyashas eyes widened in shock. He rarely was away from his mother longer than a few hours and now it was to be 5 years.

"Yes or do you not wish to become strong." Sesshomaru didn't stop and was already getting far from Inuyasha. "Make your decision or I'll leave you." He whispered in the wind

Inuyasha looked back and growled. "Dammit..." He ran off after his brother, inwardly hoping his mother wouldn't be too mad at him for leaving without saying goodbye.

10 years later.

Though Sesshomaru mentioned 5 years he extended the time due to the travels he and Inuyasha was doing.

Plumeria was already flying high with her mother. "Look mommy!"

Kimi sighws inwardly and nodded. "Yes, I see you're getting better in flying my flower."

Plumeria giggled and flew and hugged her mother. "Mommy can we go see aunt Aiko? Or is she still upset about her puppy?"

"Don't call your cousin that. I'm sure she isn't. She's been busy with your other cousin." Kimi sighed. 'Where the fuck did she get this happy attitude from?'

Ryuuko flew down and smirked. "How are my girls?" As he dragged a giant snake demon that he killed.

Kimi stared at him blankly. "What the fuck did I tell you about killing things unnecessarily you fire breathing gecko! Yesterday was an eagle, last week a giant fish and now a fucking giant ass snake demon."

Plumeria eyes widen and she covered her mouth. "Ooh mommy cursed."

"It's for dinner." He shrugged and threw it down.

Plumeria went to sit in Kimis lap and ate quietly and pointed up at the sky. "Look mommy! Aunt Aiko!"

Meanwhile Ami, the young child of Touga to and Aiko was looking at her father. "Daddy...why does mommy leave to go flying so much?"

"Dinner?" Kimi blinked and stopped raving. "Cool..." She swooped down and set the snake on fire and started to eat it.

"Because she's looking for your half brothers." Touga looked down at her. "You'll meet Inuyasha and Sesshomaru soon. Something tells me they'll be back soon."

Ami nodded and sat in her father's lap. She had long silver hair and purple cheek markings and golden eyes like her dad but they were soft like her mothers and she had impressive wings at her young age.

"Yeah." Kimi waved at Aiko and continued eating.

"You always thinking about your stomach Kimi." Ryuuko shook his head laughing and Kimi rolled her eyes.

Plumeria finished eating and looked around. "Mommy..can we do fire training again?"

"Yes..." She muttered and rubbed her head. "Just give me a minute."

Plumeria smiled and started flying high into the air.

Kimi looked at Ryuuko. "You're training her next lizard." She poked his chest.

Ryuuko chuckled. "Alright fly bird."

"Don't call me that." She mumbled and flew up in the air and hovered. Ryuuko chuckled and sat back.

Plumeria floated around cutely and in the distance she saw something and her eyes widened. "Mommy look! More Phoenixes!"

Kimi's eyes widen. "Go to your father now!" She yelled at Plumeria. "Go now!"

Plumeria blinked. "But why mommy?"

"Do not talk back Plumeria! Go to your father right now!" Kimi yelled more sternly. She made sure that Plumeria went straight to Ryuuko. She looked up at the flock of Phoenixes and flew over to them.

The Phoenixes flew closer and stopped in front of her. "Kimi…it's been awhile."

Kimi narrowed her eyes. "What do you all want?"

"It seems your parents had died from injuries." One spoke softly.

"Oh goody they're dead, now leave." She said sarcastically. "I don't care anymore. I moved on."

The Phoenix sighed. "We wish for you and your sister to return…and to lead our clan."

"No, we have our own lives. Find someone else." She stated clearly.

The Phoenix sighed. "Kimi please."

"No, I will not nor will Aiko be clan leader. There's other stronger Phoenixes than us. Use them as your leader. Going back will only bring back bad memories." She turned her back to them. "Plus...you all was never there for us...so why should we be there for you?"

The Phoenix sighed. "We weren't aware of the abuse your parents caused you both."

"Do not lie. There was speculations and rumors...now leave me alone." She flew away from them.

Plumeria flew up to her. "Mommy." She hugged her mom tightly.

Kimi looked down at Plumeria and hugged her tightly. "I know I don't tell you this often my flower but I love you."

Plumeria smiled. "I love you too mommy." She hugged tightly and was happy with her mother.

-Meanwhile-

Aiko smiled and waved and kept flying and looking all over. There were times she was depressed and it was only because she worried about her son and missed him. She stopped flying when she recognized something familiar and she flew down to it. She walked close to it and her eyes widened. 'Izayois grave...' She smiled softly and picked some flowers and put it down at her grave.

-Meanwhile-
"Come on Sesshomaru I can smell her!" Inuyasha yelled.

"You're an adult now...act like it fool." Sesshomaru says simply and didn't walk faster. He kept the same pace as he watched Inuyasha run off to the scent of Aiko.

Aiko silently prayed to the small grave. 'I know he is your son..I hope you don't wish ill will against me..but he imprinted on me. And Touga is an amazing father to him..and I love Inuyasha as my own..' She silently prayed.

'Thank you...for caring for him.' Izayoi whispered. 'He became such a handsome and strong young man...turn around." The voice stopped. Aiko blinked and turned around. Inuyasha was running and looked around sniffing. He was taller now and was wearing clothing similar to Sesshomaru but of a different color.

.Aikos eyes widened and she slowly stood up. "Inuyasha..." She slowly started flying toward him not fully believing her eyes.

Inuyasha looked up. "Hey mom!" He waved at her and grinned.

Aiko smiled and she had tears and she flew over at fast speeds and hugged him tightly. "My puppy...I've missed you.." She flicked his nose like she did when he was a kid. "Don't you ever leave without saying goodbye to me ever again!"

"Sorry mom...but hey don't I look different? And you're shorter than me." He grinned. "Oh guess what I have a girlfriend now her names Crystal and she's beautiful." Aikos eye twitched. She of course wanted her son to be happy but to know some girl might be taking her innocent puppy away made her boil over with anger and she went into her Phoenix form and was breathing fire into the sky.

Ami , who was still with her father, looked up and saw the fire. "Daddy what's mommy doing?"

"Mom! Stop it Crystal is a nice person. She's an ice dragon. She's like you...sweet and pretty." Inuyasha blushed and folded his arms.

"Don't worry about it." Touga muttered and sighed inwardly smelling the scent that was in the air that seemed to be following his son.

Aiko looked at her son. "I'm fine…now get on I'll fly you to your father and your sister."

Inuyasha shook his head. "No thanks mom...I'm not a kid anymore." He took off sprinting. Sesshomaru watched the exchange and rolled his eyes. He went wherever place he had in mind.

Aiko hid her sadness and flew off to Touga and Ami and picked her up.

"Mommy what is it?" Ami looked up.

"You're gonna meet your brother baby." Aiko kissed her forehead.

Inuyasha stopped running and looked over Aiko's shoulder. "Oh...she looks like you mom." He hugged Aiko and then went down to Ami's level.

Ami looked up at him. "So you're my brother?"

"Yeah...and you're my sister." He sat down and stared at her.

She flicked Inuyashas nose. "That's for worrying mommy all these years!"

Inuyasha stared and grumbled. He tackled Ami and tickled her. Ami kept giggling and rolling around.

Aiko sighed and went up to Touga and put her head on his shoulder. "He has a girlfriend...my puppy has a girlfriend.."

"What did you expect Aiko? For him to remain the same child that you found in a fire? No he is growing up and you have to deal with it." Touga hugged her and kissed her forehead.

Aiko sighed and hugged Touga knowing he was right. The two Phoenix sisters now knew that they were finally happy.
