Catch Me If You Can
 
InuYasha was looking over his shoulder and not really watching where he was running. He just knew that he had to get away, and fast.
 
“InuYasha!!!!!” he heard screeched at the top of his pregnant wife's lungs.
 
“Damn!” The hanyou slid to a halt. He may not wear the beads of subjugation any more but he knew there would be worse hell to pay if he didn't respond to Kagome's call.
 
“I see you still submit to the human,” his brother said with a chuckle.
 
InuYasha glared. “Like you don't submit to your wife.”
 
“Well, it is you that they are calling for, not me,” Sesshomaru commented.
 
“Just say you haven't seen me,” the hanyou begged as he posed to run again.
 
“I will not lie on your behalf. Why do you not face your spouse like a man?”
 
“Sesshomaru!!!” the irritated feminine voice called.
 
InuYasha laughed. “It looks like we both have to face her. Just wait.”
 
About that time InuYasha's son ran towards him, his hair flying behind him in braids.
 
“Kazuki, I see she caught you,” the hanyou commented.
 
The young boy nodded. “Aunt Rin is certain she will have a girl and wants to practice. Mama says for you and Uncle to come.”
 
InuYasha turned to his brother. “Just remember that it was your fault we got caught.”
 
“She did not catch you soon enough,” a mildly annoyed voice stated.
 
A smile threatened to flicker across Sesshomaru's face as his mother walked down the steps toward the gate of Inuyama Castle. Rin had braided her hair into two main pigtails and then had braided her forelocks and bangs. “Do not laugh. You're next.”
 
“Remind me again why we took a human wife,” Sesshomaru said.
 
“Because we love them,” InuYasha responded as he started up the stairs.
