Chapter 4: Broken by the rules of love

The month of December was upon us and the beginning of the month had blessed us with much snow. Shippo and Katsurou bundled up and played outside as often as we would let them. On days when the snow wasn't as deep and the skies were clear I gave them tracking lessons as well as secrets to avoid others from following their tracks. The lessons went well and both were great students. Katsurou had had some training in Sango's youkai hunting village from what was left of her now once again growing tribe.

As my pup and belly grew I found myself unable to do the simplest tasks. Bending over was damn near impossible and sitting and standing were now assisted. My back was often sore and throbbing along with my feet and ankles. I grinned and bore the pain and even the constant bathroom breaks.

I also became a training subject for Sango. She knew much about pregnancies having had two her self but male pregnancy and youkai were two new aspects of it for her. Both she and Kaede took constant notes on my physical and emotional behaviors.

As of late I excitedly waited for the birth of my pup and dreaded it all at once. And today was no exception.

“Inu Yasha, are you okay?”

I looked up from my belly which was tightened and rubbed it slowly, “Yeah, I think.”

Sango gave me a look of disbelief but let it drop for the time being. I fumbled on my stool until I was standing and waddled my way to the storage shelf pulling out two large quilts. I walked back to a corner of the room that had become mine as of late and laid the blankets down on a small futon Kaede had procured for me. I arranged them and rearranged them until they felt soft and fluffy and “perfect” and then the all too familiar tightening in my stomach happened again. I rubbed my belly until it loosened and then stood up.

I made my way to the doorway and grabbed one of the many woolen cloaks hanging in the doorway and wrapped it around my body.

“Inu yasha,” Sango hesitated saying the unsaid question full of worry.

“I'm just going for a quick walk. I'm feeling kind of restless.”

She gave a small smile and nodded.

I opened the door and saw Miroku outside playing with the little ones. I walked outside and trekked past them waving a hello as I did so. I had no destination really, I just kept walking in the crunching snow watching as the pale gray sky and tree's passed. Before I knew it I had found myself standing in front of the all too familiar well. My stomach tightened again, this time painful enough to stop my breath and not stopping at my stomach but pulling deep in my lower back.

I slid down to sit with the well supporting my back. I felt the pain lessen and I sat there watching a few snow flakes fall slowly to the ground until once again the pain stole my breath. It was then that the smell of copper filled my nose. Blood, I was bleeding. It wasn't serious, Sango and Kaede had told me of the body bleeding as it readied to expel the child and knew that these tightening's were more than mere pains.

My pup wanted out, he or she was ready to join the outside world. I gasped as my stomach tightened again and struggled to stand, rocking back and forth in order to get up. I was occupied by the pain and hadn't noticed the shuffling foot steps. It was the raspy voice that drew my attention.

“Do you need help mutt face?”

I looked up into the deep blue green eyes of Kouga, wolf prince and knew I must have been a pitiful sight. I took a deep breath and nodded adding in a soft “please”.

I watched his eyes widen and saw the knowledge of what I had said fill them. He held out his hands and I took them shakily. He helped heave me to my feet and that movement caused the pup to kick harshly deep in their cramped space. I wrapped my arms around my belly and started to slowly shuffle past him.

“There's blood where you were sitting,” he said surprised.

“I know,” I said as I continued walking.

“Are you hurt….and why are you so fat? Wait, you smell different mutt.”

I didn't answer but I felt his presence behind me, following.

“You smell familiar…like the females in my tribe…”

God, he's dumb!

I then heard him sputtering, “You're with pup!?”

“Keep it…down…wimpy wolf,” I responded winded.

“How did you become bitch,” he asked softly as he followed closely beside me.

“It's a long story…just do me a favor and keep your muzzle shut. I'd like it to stay a secret…ow…”

“It's coming!?”

Like I said, he's an idiot.

“Want to be of some use and go tell Sango that it's time”?

“What about you? I can't just leave you out here by yourself! You smell of blood and pups, and at the moment you're pretty weak. You do know that pregnant females are a delicacy to some youkai right?”

I sighed and hissed as the pain worsened, “Fine stay with me just please stop screaming, I'd prefer to not draw any more attention to us then necessary.”

The tree's lessened and I saw the Kaede's hut in the distance and outside of it were Shippo, Katsurou and Miroku still playing. We neared as my belly kept cramping and I was close enough to see the expressions on their faces as they played. I watched as Shippo looked up and started waving excitedly smiling. I watched as the smile faded and a look of terror crossed that small face. I turned around and saw a small group of youkai at our backs. I waddled a little faster and then felt a pair of arms lift me into the air as we gained speed.

We sped past Shippo and the gang who soon followed us to Kaede's hut. Kaede and Sango stood at the hut entrance with questioning looks. Kouga set me down in front of them and looked back at the demons that came closer to the village.

“Demon slayer, grab your weapon. Inu Yasha's scent has attracted some of the smaller demons and we need to destroy them before it gathers unwanted attention. I have a feeling there are certain demon's that would be curious as to why the lesser ones are gathering here.”

Sango nodded and patted me on my shoulder, “Go inside Inu Yasha. Kaede, he's in labor.”

She grabbed her weapon and headed out just as Katsurou and Shippo made their way to the hut, Katsurou holding Hitomi close.

“Come inside boys, I'll have work for you to do, Inu Yasha change from those clothes and into a clean robe.”

I waddled my way inside, Kaede leading me past my futon and into her small room.

“It's best if you birth here. I'll have Katsurou and Shippo bring in your bedding, go get changed,” she said handing me a cream colored robe.

I watched and waited as Shippo and Katsurou carried in my futon and laid it on floor in a corner of the room.

“I want you two to go and take a bucket and place it in the pot over the stove and start boiling water. When you're done that bring me clean towels and linens.”

The two followed her advice and I changed out of my soiled robes and set them aside, slipping on the cream colored one. Pains assaulted my body as I did so, making it a slow process.

The sound of battle echoed through the village and it was clearly heard in Kaede's hut since they were practically fighting on the doorstep.

“Don't concern yourself with the battle. Concentrate on that pup's delivery. I nodded and found myself at a loss as to what to do, where to sit or whether I wanted to sit or lay. The pains continued and time seemed to center around when the next pain would come. I could hear Shippo and Katsurou's voice distantly, saying that the water was boiling and I felt my body's changes as I paced back and forth, hoping gravity would help.

The pains gained strength and soon I found myself kneeling on one of the quilts I had pulled from the storage closet, my arms braced against the wooden walls. I felt the pressure grow and center between my legs at the entrance that had been virgin before Sesshomaru's assault nine months ago.

“Kaede, Kaede, Kaede! Sesshomaru is outside!”

I gasped as another contraction hit at the same time as the news.

“What says he,” she asked kneeling down behind me, pulling my hair behind me.

“He wanted to know why the youkai suddenly started attacking and why Inu Yasha's blood is scented on the air and by the well,” replied Shippo in his excitedly worried tone.

I tensed and hissed as the weight deep inside pressed down more at my entrance.

“And what was he told,” asked Kaede as I felt her tugging softly at my hair until it was plaited and pulled over my shoulder.

“Kouga said he saw him leave the well an hour ago with minor wounds,” he replied.

“Mama and Papa told him that they hadn't seen Inu Yasha since he wandered off nine months ago,” replied Katsurou.

“Has he left,” she asked.

“No…he..he's…still out there…I can sense him…,” I gasped out as my entrance strained further.

“I don't think he believes us,” said Shippo as his fangs worried his lower lip.

“If I must convince him I will,” she stood and put her hands behind her back stretching before going over and picking up a thick piece of leather.

“I'll need you to be silent if this is to work, when the pain gets to you bite down on this. It helps and that way you don't break any teeth.”

No sooner had she handed it to than I felt my entrance strain and rip. I grabbed the leather and put it between my teeth, biting down as scream bubbled up from my throat.

“Come boys,” she said as she left, closing the door.

I gasped for breath through the gag and my nose and fought to be quiet so I could listen in, my sensitive ears swerving here and there to find the direction.

“Why are you causing unease outside my home, Lord Sesshomaru?”

“This Sesshomaru wants to know why those youkai attacked your cottage and why my hanyou brother's scent is by the well.”

“I believe you could tell us more than we could tell you. Last time these old eyes saw Inu Yasha was nine moths ago. I believe you were sighted round this way then, Lord Sesshomaru.”

I felt some satisfaction but it was short lived when the straining pressure grew and when pain and relief became one as relief came pouring down my inner things, pooling beneath me. My waters had broken.

The pain intensified and I scraped my claw-like nails down the wall leaving trails in their wake. I once again found my body tightening and screaming as loud as the leather gag would allow me.

“Who is in your hut, healer,” asked Sesshomaru with some venom.

“That would be a young mother birthing her first child. Don't tell me you suspect that she is your brother. If you do please follow me into the hut, I suspect her waters have broken and the child is crowning.”

An awkward pause filled the air and I silently prayed he would leave as my opening strained further and the feel of something pushing through it caused another scream to tear from my now abused throat.

“I've no more time to waste on you, that child will be born with or without me but I give the mother more of a fighting chance with me there. Sango, come and leave his royal highness standing there. I need your assistance.”

I heard foot steps and then I turned and watched as Kaede followed by Sango entered the room.

“Let me check you, Inu Yasha.” I stayed kneeling as Kaede's hands slide under my robe and to my entrance which was now one throbbing ache in itself.

“It's crowning. Do you wish to stay kneeling or do you want to lie down,” Kaede asked as she removed her hands.

“Kneeling,” I said as I spit out the leather.

I felt Sesshomaru's presence slowly vanish and knew he had left.

“Sango, fetch a bowl of boiled water and bring it in here and set it to my right.”

I felt searing pain through my back and middle as my body worked to expel the pup inside me.

“Push through each pain. When the pain stops you stop and take a small break.”

I nodded and leaned more against the wall as the pain left my body. It was only a small respite and soon another began.

“Push! That's it! Keep pushing!”

I felt that pressure building as the head of my pup began to make its way out.

“Give me your hand Inu Yasha,” demanded Kaede.

I did as told and she led it to where opening and where she placed it sent my mind reeling as I felt the top of my pups head, feeling the wet and slime covered orb covered in slicked back hair.

“No, dog ears….” Was all I could say.

I heard Kaede and Sango's chuckles and I almost felt foolish for having said it.

“It's a shame really, I rather hoped he or she would have them,” said Sango.

Pain hit again and I did as asked and pushed until I could feel the forehead and upper half of my pup's nose. I placed both hands back on the wall and concentrated on gathering my energy.

“Almost there Inu Yasha, once the heads out it's all down hill from there,” said Sango.

Pain startled me and I began pushing once more.

“That's it! Keep going!”

It was then that I felt a “pop” and most of the pressure had disappeared.

“Good job Inu Yasha, the heads out!”

“Deep breath and push slowly…good good,” coached Kaede.

I felt the shoulders and then the rest of my pups body slip from my own and heard shouts of happiness.

I leaned against that clawed up wall and breathed, fighting for my breath as I waited to hear my pups cry. I heard a snip and felt my connection to my pup sever. I got on all fours shakily and turned to see my pup.

No sooner had I turned myself to see it than cries cut into the air coming from a small naked…boy. Boy! I had a son! His cries were loud and healthy and his. I collapsed onto the dirty and filth covered quilt, thankful for a resting place.

“Congratulations, Inu Yasha,” whispered Sango with a soft smile.

“Come Inu Yasha, spread your legs. The afterbirth still has to be delivered. You'll get to hold your pup soon enough.”

I felt a few weak twinges, smaller pains than those from before but did as asked and soon I felt a soft mass pass onto the quilt below me followed by a warm rag moving over my legs and private areas. I hissed as water containing herbs leaked into open tears and still sore areas.

I was helped into a standing position and a thick piece of cloth was stuck between my opening to catch the fluids and blood still draining from my body. I was helped into a new robe and led to my futon. I was helped into a laying position and given a warm cup.

“Drink, it'll help heal your body as well as numb the pain.”

I looked across the room where Sango was wrapping my freshly bathed pup in a clean blanket.

She stood up and carried him towards me and felt my heart constrict just a little. I would finally get to see the small life that had grown inside of me for nine months.

As she leaned down and placed the bundle in my arms I cradled him close and pulled the blanket from his arms and chest, reveling in pink plump perfection. I pulled his left arm out counting five fingers with five perfect finger nails and then did the same for the right. I lifted his right foot and counted five toes with five toe nails and repeated it with the left. I then explored perfectly pointed ears and soft now fluffly white hair, almost silver by candle light which now covered the room since night had fallen around us.

His cheeks were plump and as of yet had no sign markings and probably wouldn't until he hit puberty if he developed them at all but he did have a small blue crescent moon upon his brow. I was now betting he would develop those stripes later on in life.

I cuddled him close, his crying dying down a little as I did so.

“It's best to feed him; it'll also help speed up your body's process of returning to normal.”

I opened the new robe to reveal my now swollen and leaking chest and gently led him to my willing nipple. At first he turned his nose up at it and then he latched on sucking heartily.

I watched him suckle and closed my eyes, laying further into the pillows behind me.

“What will you name him,” asked Sango as she placed a large basket already covered with blankets beside me.

“Ryuusei,” I said softly as I used my free hand to caress his soft silvery tresses.

She smiled, “Very appropriate.”

I felt the suction lessen and then he let go all on his own. I watched as Sango lifted him from my arms and laid him against her chest, gently patting his back until a soft burp was heard. I continued to watch as she placed him in the basket by my bedside and covered his lower body with a soft baby blanket and then felt her lean over me, closing my robe and then tucking me in.

“Sleep Inu Yasha, you'll have much work ahead of you come morning.”

With that I closed my eyes and left the stress, numbed pain and exhaustion pull me into sleep.
