Title: Chronic Condition
Author: tenshibellaluna
Rating: PG-13 (T) – for supposed premarital relations, false (?) teen pregnancy, and lots of other
unforseen events in future chapters.
Summary: As Kagome's absences from school grow longer and more frequent, her twentieth-
century friends begin to suspect that her grandfather's excuses are merely cover for a single
chronic condition. With no more diseases springing to mind, the eldest Higurashi proclaims his
granddaughter PREGNANT! With Miroku (in)conveniently around, the situation becomes more
complicated . . .
UPDATE: The ending to the previous chapter -- "Shaken, Not Stirred" -- has been changed.
Since much of what occurs in this chapter hinges on this revision, you might want to go back and
re-read the last few paragraphs of chapter 5. Thanks and sorry for the confusion! (My fault.)

Chapter 6: Unanticipated Revelations
You would have thought that World War III had just broken out by all the noise coming from the
Shibuya station. After the instant shock of Inuyasha's abrupt announcement, Yuka, Eri and
Ayumi shrieked and jumped at Inuyasha. They bombarded him with question after question,
insult after insult. Inuyasha himself looked honestly thrown off by the girls' sudden explosion of
emotions. Just what the heck had Kagome been telling these weird girls about him?
"How dare you show your ugly, rotten face around Kagome-chan?"
"And just what do you plan to do? Are you going to run away to your other lover?"
"Who do you think you are, abandoning Kagome-chan and your future child?"
"W-w-what?" Inuyasha finally exploded back at them. "What the hell do you mean by ‘future
child'?"
Kagome wanted to die. Humiliated, she turned to look upwards. She prayed hoping the gods
would strike her down now and end it all then and there. Explaining things to her friends was one
thing, but trying to sort this out with Inuyasha was going to be almost impossible, especially with
the girls there, not to mention being in the middle of the busy station. Kagome was seriously
starting to consider that she must have done something horrible in her past life for all of this bad
karma to be following her around.
Miroku however could not be more amused. He smiled as he watched the strong tough, half-
demon Inuyasha get torn a new one by three teenage girls. It really was a fantastic show. He idly
wondered if the thing that Kagome called ‘popcorn' would be appropriate for such an occasion.
However he was soon jarred from his musings when the three girls all fell into line on either side
of him.
"Look at Miroku, such a strong, brave and kind person!" Yuka said as she pushed the monk
forward a bit.
"Yeah that's right. He's being kind enough to help Kagome through all this since you abandoned
her!" Eri agreed.
"Like I said before…what the hell are you talking about?" Inuyasha shouted, his anger mounting.
"Go on Miroku," Ayumi pushed. "Tell him!"
Miroku paused, looking at the three girls, then glanced briefly at Kagome, who looked like she
was going to find a cliff to jump off of. He wasn't sure if what he was about to do was going to
help her any, but it was certainly going to be amusing.
"They're correct Inuyasha," Miroku said as he cleared his throat and stepped forward.
The monk and the half-demon stood face to face, Miroku's eyes filled with joy and amusement
while Inuyasha's stared back with anger and contempt. Kagome finally turned her attention back
to this sight. She silently prepared to bring out the ‘sits' if Inuyasha tried anything, and she
prayed to god that Miroku wasn't about to do something stupid.
And of course, he was.
"Inuyasha, your abandonment of Kagome-sama and your unborn child is appalling," Miroku
continued. "Even worse, you dare to show your face to her after running off with Kikyo again.
Kagome-sama has been nothing but loyal to you and loved you with all her heart, but again and
again you betrayed and abused her trust and faith in you! I will no longer stand idly by as you
torment her in such a way!"
As he spoke, Miroku was shocked by how strong the words pouring out of him were. He had
only meant to tease Inuyasha, but what he said couldn't be truer, well aside from the baby part.
All the things that he was launching out at the half-demon were things he really felt, and he
meant every word. For months now he had watched Kagome follow Inuyasha around; helping
him, loving him, missing him, crying for him. Kagome was no weakling. She was strong, but she
was still only human. He had watched painfully as Inuyasha left her alone for Kikyo. He could
practically feel her heart break apart bit by bit each time he left.
Kagome stared in awe, stunned by Miroku's words. Was he only playing along with her
grandfather's game or were his words more truthful than that? Had he really watched her that
closely when they were together? When Inuyasha left she always felt so empty, so alone…but
was that really the case? Was she really, truly alone?
Looking over at Inuyasha, Kagome could see that his anger was coming to its boiling point. If
Miroku didn't stop soon the whole of Shibuya might be destroyed. She hurried over to the
monk's side and grabbed his arm gently.
Miroku, shaken out of his speech by Kagome's touch, looked down at her with wide eyes. Had
he really just voiced all of those inner thoughts? Kagome was looking back up at him with a
weak, almost watery smile on her face. He suddenly felt horribly guilty. His expression of shock
faded into one of apology.
"Miroku…thank you," she whispered softly so that only he could hear, a silent moment passing
between the two.
They were abruptly shaken from this moment when Inuyasha finally unleashed all the anger that
had been building up within him this whole time.
"Kagome, Miroku, what the hell are you two trying to pull here? What is all of this about a baby?
What baby?" Inuyasha exploded.
Yuka, Eri and Ayumi who had all been frozen in awe of Miroku's heroic speech snapped back
into action, ready with another barrage of questions for Inuyasha. Kagome, however beat them to
the punch.
"Inuyasha, sit!" she called and Inuyasha as per usual, went crashing to the ground. Kagome then
turned and smiled sweetly at her three friends. "I'm sorry girls, but it looks like I have to deal
with this. I'll meet with Hojo another time."
"But Kagome-chan…" Ayumi said nervously as she starred down at Inuyasha.
"Don't worry ladies," Miroku cut in. "I will most certainly be there for Kagome-sama."
Somewhat relieved, the three girls nodded and left.
And then there were three…

A/N: Huzzah, Huzzah! Here's chapter six. This is actually my first time writing anything
Kagome/Miroku related. I've had plenty of plot bunnies bouncing around, but nothing complete. I
hope that this will prove worthy of the RR and I hope everyone enjoyed it!
Wheeee! I finally got to write a chapter! I was really surprised by how quickly this came out. I
thought I might really struggle with it, but everything seemed to flow out nicely. I hope everyone
enjoyed it and I can't see what the next chapter holds for Miroku and Kagome!
— — —
Ah, and it came out so fast, too! Impressive, very impressive...thanks a bunch for your
contribution!
And the cliffhanger...does this mean that the gauntlet has been thrown? Well, we'll just have to
wait and see.
Up Next...Sada Dano
After her, it's MY turn again n.n Woo hoo!
