Chapter 34

Good News and Bad News

It's been two weeks since the attack in the park. Inuyasha was excused from college after they heard about his condition but he was to return once he was well. The doctors let him leave the hospital two days ago and now he's spending his time at his home with Kagome and his friends.

Sango has been planning attacks and all sorts of stuff to get to Kikyo. No one argued with her knowing better than to disagree when she was heated with rage.

They were all sitting in the living room as of now watching some movies and t.v but not really paying attention. Inuyasha was the only one laying down on the couch since he wasn't fully healed. His side was bandaged up but he was doing a lot better. His breathing was still a little unstable but it was going okay for him. The doctors just told him to rest a lot.

Kagome got up in the middle of Sangos plan and went into the kitchen. She opened the fridge and grabbed four bottles of water then went back out to the living room. After handing everyone their drinks she sat on the floor in front of the couch where Inuyasha layed.

He rolled over and kissed her cheek and tugged on her arm. She smiled and got up to sit with him. He sat up and then put his head on her lap. Kagome started stroking his ears as she listened to Sango rattled on her plan of destruction.

"Ok, another thing we could do: Break into her house, tie her up to a chair, chop off her hair, then strangle her with our shoelaces!" Sango yelled.

Miroku looked at her with a horrified face and loosend his hold on her. "Wow Sango...that's uh, real cruel."

"Cruel? And what she did to Kagome isn't cruel?" Sango yelled.

Miroku looked thoughtful. "Oh well...yea, you got a point there."

"Maybe we should focus on Inuyasha getting better before we do anything about it." Kagome said after taking a sip of her water.

"Yeah of course. I was just planning, you know, for later. Alright let's see..." Sango put a finger on her chin as she got a thoughtful look on her face. "I'm out of ideas..."

"You did think of a lot. You said, - one - chop off her hair and strangle her with our shoelaces - two - duck tape her to the top of a ladder and throw her off the roof - three - hang her by her hair and slice up her arms and legs - four - throw her in a dungeon of some sort and put venomous snakes and spiders and other deadly animals in there..." Kagome trailed off and winced at the last one. "That's pretty scary."

"Inuyasha?" Miroku called.

Kagomelooked downand saw Inuyasha asleep on her lap. "He fell asleep." She carefully got out from under him and stood up and straightened her skirt and blouse. "Let's go to my room so we wont bother him." Miroku and Sango nodded and followed her to her room. Once inside they all sat on the bed and Miroku turned on the t.v.

"Where do you think she is? I doubt she's at her house, who would go home after being a suspect of a crime."

Kagome shruged. "I don't know Sango. That's the thing. How are we going to threathen her if we don't even know where she's hiding?"

A loud ring interupted Sango from anything she was going to say. Kagome got up and ran over to answer the phone. She picked it up on the third ring not bothering to check the caller ID.

"Hello?"

"Kagome? Hey!" Rins voice came over the line.

"Oh hey Rin! What's up?"

"Nothing. Are you guys busy?"

"Nope, not really. Just thinking of cruel plans to kill Kikyo and what not." Kagome said simply.

"Oh ok. Cool. Anyways, can me and Sesshy come over? We got some news to tell you guys." Rin said sounding excited.

Kagome grew anxious and wanted to know what was making her friend so happy. "Alright. Inuyasha is sleeping right now but you can still come over."

"Ok. We'll be there in a bit. See ya!"

"Bye." Kagome said and hung up the phone. Sango and Miroku were looking at her expectantly. "Sesshomaru and Rin are coming over. She said they got something to tell us."

"Ok."

"Now?"

"Yeah. In a few."

"Hey." Sango said suddenly after some silence. "How about we go visit Kaede at the diner later? We haven't been there for a while with everything going on."

Kagome jumped up on the bed and tucked her legs underneathe her. "That's a great idea."

"After Rin and Sesshomaru leaves?" Miroku asked from the edge of the bed while channel surfing.

"Sure." Sango shruged. "Kagome? Can I borrow your red skirt and black shirt, the one with the dragon on them."

Kagome looked around the room trying to remember just where she put that skirt. "Sure, once I remember where I put it. Why?"

"Just wanted to dress up. I love that outfit."

Kagome laughed and walked into the closet. She came out a couple minutes later with the mini skirt and shirt and handed them to Sango. Sango stood up and started changing from her jeans and t-shirt into the nice outfit. Kagome watched t.v while she did that and noticed Miroku hadn't said anything since he's been watching baywatch. She rolled her eyes. After Sango changed she looked herself in the mirror and twirled around. Kagome smiled.

"Looks good." She said.

"Thanks. I love your clothes Kags." Sango said.

Miroku turned around, his eyebrows furrowed. "You weren't wearing that when we walked in here."

"I know."

"Did you just change?"

"Yup."

"And I missed it?"

"Sure did."

"Damn."

Sango laughed and walked over and kissed his cheek. "Sorry sweety. You were too busy watching women in bikinis on t.v to pay any attention."

Miroku didn't trust himself to speak and thanked the lord when the doorbell rang. Kagome quickly got up and ran to the living room finding the door open already with a still sleepy Inuyasha holding it. She ran forward just in time to stop him from slamming the door in Sesshomarus face and grabbed onto his arm.

"Sorry if that woke you." Kagome said. "Hey Rin, Sesshomaru." Kagome smiled.

"Hey!" Rin yelled and hugged her friend. Sesshomaru nodded at her and strode inside. Rin let her go and went to hug Sango leaving Inuyasha and Kagome in the doorway. Inuyasha shut the door mumbling about stupid half brothers waking him up.

"Are you alright? You can go back to sleep in our room if you want." Kagome said looking at him concerned.

"Nah. I'm fine now that I'm awake. How long was I asleep?"

"About an hour or so."

"Why they here?" He asked nodding towards the living room.

"Rin said they have something to tell us. Now come on. She sounds excited." Kagome dragged him into the living room and sat next to him on the couch. Rin and Sesshomaru sat on the other couch across from them while Sango and Miroku shared the la-z-boy chair.

"Oh my gosh guys. Ok I have such good news!" Rin squealed. Sesshomaru remain normal though he did have a hint of a smile twitching his lips.

"What's up?" Sango asked.

"Guys..." Rin looked at Sesshomaru smiling then looked back at them. "I'm pregnant!"

Kagome and Sangos eyes widend and the guys looked bored. They squealed with delight and jumped up to hug Rin. Inuyasha rolled his eyes.

"You came over and woke me up for that?" He growled.

"Inuyasha! This is big! Oooh! Let me feel!" Kagome jumped up and down excitingly putting her hand on Rins belly.

Rin laughed. "Kagome, it's onlya tiny cell right now. There's still a long time before I start getting fat."

Sango grinned. "You ain't gonna get fat. Just...big."

Kagome pulled her hand away. "I know. I just can't wait any longer. You are so lucky! I can't wait to have a baby!" She said then realized just what she said and blushed.

Everyone in the room except Kagome looked at Inuyasha and he blushed and looked away. Rin, Sango and Miroku grinned at the two. After some congratulations and a lot of talking Sesshomaru and Rin left. Sango and Kagome told the guys they were going to the diner to see Kaede and since they had nothing to do but follow their girlfriends like puppys they tagged along.

Kaede was serving a table near the door when they walked in and she smiled widely when they came over to her.

"Hi kids. How is everything going?" Kaede asked ushering them to the booth they would always sit in after school.

"Hey Kaede." Kagome and Sango said taking turns to hug the old women who was like their grandmother. Inuyasha and Miroku hugged her after the girls and sat down next to their girlfriends.

"How are you doing?" Sango asked.

"Oh, I'm doing fine. How about you? How's college?"

"College? Hard." Kagome laughed. "But I'm doing good."

"Same here." Sango said. Miroku and Inuyasha nodded.

"Where do you all go? TU?"

"All of us go to TU. Inuyasha goes to NYU in the states." Miroku said.

"So far away? That's a very good school though. What are you doing over here?" Kaede asked.

"Visiting my girl. Her birthday was last month and I couldn't miss it. And we still got some unfinished buisiness with some people we have to complete."

Sangos eyes turned fire for a moment. They knew who he was talking about and once Kikyo was gone everything would be perfect.

"That's nice. Still together I see? I wish you the best of luck with your relationship."

Kagome and Sango smiled and the guys grinned. "A year and a half and still going." Kagome said.

"Me and Miroku are celebrating our third year next month." Sango smiled widely and kissed his cheek.

"I am happy for you. I still remember three years ago when you came in holding hands through that door and announced your relationship. To be honest, I never thought it'd happen." Kaede grinned.

Sango and Miroku nodded while Kagome and Inuyasha laughed.

"What will you want to drink?"

"Coke." All four said at the same time.

Kaede nodded and left to bring them their drinks. Later they ordered some burgers and fries and chatted with Kaede. As time went by the old women grew anxious and pulled up a chair to sit with them.

"Something wrong Kaede?" Miroku asked.

"Oh no. I just have something I've been meaning to tell you children."

"What is it?" Sango asked feeling a little nervous for some reason.

Kaede smiled but it looked like it was forced. "Well, it's kind of bad news. I will be leaving the diner in a couple of weeks and going to a home." She said.

The four of them were speechless not knowing what to do or say. Was Kaede really leaving her diner? The one place that obviously kept her going. Kagome swallowed and gripped Inuyashas hand.

"Why...would you go to a nursing home?" She asked not wanting to know but needing to know.

Kaede sighed and took her other hand. "Kagome dear. I am not as young as I used to be and I am not getting any younger."

Sango sucked in her breath. "W-What...What're you saying?"

Kaede looked at her and grabbed her hand also in her free hand. Miroku and Inuyasha looked nervous and concerned. "My doctor told me I have to go to a nusing home because my heart is getting weak. I have at least two more years to live or less. I am eighty-seven years old."
