A/N : The sequel to my steamy One Shot: Bring Forth the Youkai and Let the Good Times Roll! It takes place several years in the future. Making them twenty four now. Both InuYasha and Kagome are very happy. They still have their fights; still have a stubborn streak bigger than Europe but very much in love. I also came up with this original way for Kagome to become a Hanyou. I'm rather possessive of it. . So if you use it I would like to be credited at least please.

Return of the Youkai

Part One

 

 

Late Spring. . . the season that heats the blood of warm blooded critters and jump starts every female alive and of age into Reproduction mode. Mostly the ones who understood this were the wild animals/invertebrates, oni, youkai and one very happily mated twenty-four year old Inu hanyou. How he wanted to have pups now that Naraku was long gone but he was considerate of his beloved Kagome and would wait for her to give him the sign she was ready for him. . . for this.

 

In the past four years since his mating, InuYasha would began to get frustrated like usual every year since he mated Kagome with the sounds of rutting going on around him. Seemingly everywhere he tried to go and try escape it he would come across rutting pairs in one form or another until he finally learned that by going to Kagome's time he can get some relief from it.

 

Unfortunately, the same couldn't be said about his dreams at night. Too commonly, he would wake up with cold soaking hakama in the front - the end results from all those wet dreams he had during the night and the strong scent of his sated musk that even a weak nose could smell in the air.

 

He took it well as he could with Kagome often helping him ease his youkai-and-instinct raging blood by either taking him into her mouth and drinking down his essence or by letting him pound out his tightly controlled needs with her very willing body as he sought to tied back the urges. If it wasn't for her enthusiastic screams and cries of pleasure InuYasha would have felt so guilty and ashamed with his primal sick desires.

 

It helped to some extent but still didn't completely alleviate his deeply seated instinctive drive to produce young with his genes with his life mate. To have a big family, that's what he yearned and longed for. What stopped him was that he was frightened at the thought of unleashing the instinctive hormonally driven youkai within him upon a fertile Kagome during these times in the late spring and if he would actually succeed in killing her by literally fucking her to death.

 

During those times, he would take off into his forest and take matters literally into his own hands. After he had worn himself out from the repeated multiple orgasm-inducing sessions would he finally return to Kagome, knowing he was too exhausted to possibly hurt her. He offered up numerous prayers of thanks to the Kamis that she was on the birth control that effectively kept her fertile scent away from his (and his inner youkai's) senses.

 

And the damnable woman wasn't helping him much with every single time she told him just how sexy and desirable she thought his youkai markings were and how she wished he would let her lick them. . .

This current late spring, InuYasha was racing through his forest burning off the accumulated energies and heated blood that was wrecking havoc upon his instincts (the scent of so many fertile females in estrus perfuming the air so heavily) by making any repairs to his private pool that was needed. Cutting down those diseased trees that threatened homes or animal dens and cutting the wood up for lumber, tools and firewood. Taking these to the village to drop them off to the various villagers who would take over in curing/drying the lumber, making the new tools and tool handles and the young men to take the fire wood to the village woodshed.

 

InuYasha would also cull any wild animals that he could tell wouldn't make it through the fall and winter. He, with practiced ease, skinned the animals and cleaned the carcass leaving the unwanted parts, like the entrails, behind for other animals to have. He took the prepared carcasses along with the skins and fur to the village as well. The furs and skins - half he would have cured then prepared for clothing and bedding for himself and his mate, Kagome. The other half he traded to get other needed items or even money sometimes. The meat he gave to the village butchers to prepare for future use and storage. . . again he would take only a portion for himself and Kagome and their own home. Smiling gently when no one could see he let his mind drift off into warm memories. . .

Their home. It was something no one had ever seen before. Shortly after their mating Kagome had gone to her time and bought plans for an eco-friendly home using living trees as supports for the walls and for shelving. She printed these off after buying them making it easier to carry the plans to InuYasha. The villagers all were thrilled that their protector was staying around (keeping their village free from attacks by both youkai and bandits threats) eagerly joined in the task of helping InuYasha and Kagome build their home. It took nearly a full year to complete.

 

The only one not truly a part of it for a long while was Miroku; who opened his fat mouth and ruined the combined happiness of Kagome and InuYasha. He selfishly said that he and Sango should live with them too, just so he could come in and watch them `having dirty dog sex' or to `give them pointers' whenever he felt like it.

 

It took a disgusted Sango kicking her husband out of both her bed and hut in a severe tongue-lashing. Along with the combined hits of a pissed off InuYasha and a few villagers, the sobbing-upset Kagome who ran to her time for him to understand the grave error he had made and to ask for forgiveness. He got to help as well after a month of being kept away. However, most the time he was either driven away by either angry villagers or a snarling red-eyed InuYasha. Or had his ear pinched painfully between the battle hardened nails of a furious and humiliated demon-slayer wife when his lecherous ways got him into deep trouble as he grabbed at Kagome or any poor village woman when they came with meals and drinks.

 

Together they raised the home off the ground several meters well away from possible lesser youkai attacks. Creating a `Swiss Family Robinson' worthy tree-house. Kagome brought with her: nails, and other types of house building supplies, that wouldn't cause harm to the environment, that she could through the Well to use.

 

The home consisted of several buildings with one much larger building for the main house where several rooms were built: where they could cook meals, go into the pantry. Another room to sit down for dinner, lounge upon layered futons for couches, entertain guests, sit back and read/study and a much larger room for a large studio for drawing/sketching and painting complete with one wall holding shelves for canvas, papers and Art Books.

 

Turns out InuYasha had a hidden talent for making beautiful drawings and painting. His calligraphy was near perfect after he read and practiced from several instructional books Kagome got him while they were in her time and he showed clear interest upon his usually guarded expression.

 

In the smaller buildings that came off at an angle to the main building creating wings or a V shape. One wing was for their bedroom containing a Queen sized double futon piled with soft blankets and a couple queen sized sleeping bags, InuYasha didn't know about mosquito netting until Kagome had him install it above their bed and he has loved it every since. A big washroom with a large tub-like basin for Kagome's baths (which InuYasha liked to join in). A room for Kagome to grow herbs, flowers and plants, their future offspring bedrooms (Kagome had bunk beds created for these rooms, storage rooms (one room was devoted to Ramen) and a big nursery for the pups they'd make with three changing tables, several cribs and swinging sleeping baby slings (like mini hammocks). Several dressers and shelves for clothes, diapers and other baby supplies were stored there as well.

 

The other wing contained several bedrooms for guests with some dressers and blankets and a gallery for InuYasha and Kagome's artwork.

 

Sometimes they would have guests stay overnight or for a few days when they visited. The most frequent visitor was Sesshoumaru's Lady wife, Rin. She adored her brother and sister-in-law and often shared news of the Western Lands with them which included several highly embarrassing stories of her Lord Husband. She also visited when she was first pregnant, as Sesshoumaru needed her safe from those who threatened her life.

 

Those who spoke ill of his Wife-Mate and unborn pup he made sure they remembered exactly why HE was Tai Youkai and Inu no Tashio after his father. It took Sesshoumaru one month to effective clean his home of any threats either by defeating them or by slaughtering them in a fair fight and leaving the remains for all to see for a few days as an example before he had the bodies removed and disposed of like refuge. The families of those defeated had two choices, they could take the Blood Oath - one that would bind them to protecting Rin and his pups for the rest of their lives and their children's lives and so forth or they could be exiled for the rest of their lives. Most accepted the Blood Oath but a few choose exile.

 

Sango would also visit them and sometimes stay overnight especially when her husband was being an ass, small-minded lecher like usual by groping some girl in front of her. Though she would visit along with her husband especially those three times they wanted to share news of her pregnancy. Then afterwards they would visit with their sweet boys.

 

Another visitor would be Shippou and his mate Satsuki*, the orphan girl who he befriended and defended from a Gecko demon and eventually later on their litter of kits. Satsuki would be exhausted after giving birth to four kits at a time.

The total to date for his friends and brothers' pups InuYasha tried to recall was sixteen for Shippou, eight girls and eight boys. Five for Sango, all boys to Miroku's pride and finally for Rin, she had four pups, three boys and one girl, who like her mother had the stoic lord wrapped around her finger - though none with InuYasha's ears (which only serve to inflated the swelled head of the Inu hanyou even more).

These wings connected to the Main Building by very sturdy but flexible walkways. Kagome had her Mother and Grandfather obtain bridge cables and all the components and equipment for attaching them from renovated/destroyed bridges that was still in excellent condition.

 

Kirara had proven herself a wonderful and useful helper with any wielding they had to do with the cables. If she wasn't wielding, she was carrying supplies or people up to hard to reach places in the progress of the construction. She would also snatch any who fell from hitting the ground. Her reward for all her help: getting fresh fish to eat, cat treats and catnip.

 

Shippou, then fourteen (at start of construction) would occasional help out as well. . . at least until he felt the need to throw teasing comments and pull tricks on InuYasha when he was struggling with something difficult. Before InuYasha could react in his usual manner, Kagome would swoop in like a fearsome demon herself to pinch his ear between her fingers and remind him to lay off or if he wasn't going to help InuYasha or he could help Kagome with tending some injured village men. That shut the kitsune up pretty fast and he speedily helped InuYasha solve his problem as he didn't want to be made to put those remedies together. . . They stunk so bad he would get headaches and the smell wouldn't come out for days!!

 

They also had taken and used the diamonds from InuYasha's Kongoushouha. Those diamonds had been painstakingly carved and shaped -topped off with super charged sutras- creating the strongest foundations, connection and joints for the tree house and the bridges.

 

On top of all this construction going on, Kagome was thinking of the villagers and their huts that she went to her time for supplies for them as well. She also made sure to bring extra eco-friendly insulation both for her home and for several huts that had been made for putting the infirmed into. Kind of like a feudal era type of hospital along with the village's version of an orphanage and day-care, and for several storage huts. She tried to get the villagers to use it in their homes but mostly they all politely declined stating she had already done them too much and the huts that had the insulation now is what they really needed.

 

For all Kagome and InuYasha's efforts, they were granted the area to build their own storage hut at the very edges of Inuyasha's forest out of everyone's way per InuYasha's request.

 

In there was an obscenely amount of boxes of Ramen and other non-perishable food products. Lots bandages of all sizes and types, bottles of rubbing alcohol and hydrogen-peroxide for wounds. Books and papers in abundance along with many writing tools like pencils, brush sets and stick inks. Blankets, sheets and towels for beds and bathing. Unbleached toilet paper, lime and a small camping spade for bathroom visits*. Tins of Bag Balm* and other home remedies. Lots of personal hygiene products like: toothbrushes, toothpaste, Ivory soap, body washes, deodorants in the form of crystals*, natural shampoos/conditioners. And recently Kagome's secret stores of baby clothing, toys, cloth diapers and supplies that InuYasha knew nothing about.

InuYasha smirked showing off one long fang as he thought about the joys of their home and of how each room was properly blessed by them (repeatedly) many times over. How he and his Bitch sang out their joys of each room of their house. Damn he was getting aroused again as he felt his body harden with the echoing memory of his mate's pleas for more and more. The remembered scents and tastes of their enthusiastic love-making. Deciding to think about something else before he twisted his cock, in a full-blown erection, off while he ran; he started thinking about other things but that only shifted back to their other “Love-Nest” as Kagome enjoyed calling it.

Under the tree-house was InuYasha's very favourite get-away. Because of his ingrained nature and instincts, InuYasha found himself needing to make a den for Kagome and any future pups they may have. When he stammered out his wishes, fully expecting to be laughed at and told no, Kagome surprised him by latching herself to his lips and wrapping her body about his in sheer joy. Pulling back for air, she told him it was a fantastic idea and could she help too?

 

 

So together, they selected a rather high hill situated by a far corner under their home, then proceeded to dig out the den with many rooms and installed a youkai approved support beam system with the added touches of super charged ofudas to create a permanent barrier to ensure no cave-ins would ever happen. They carved out shelves and little basins for various necessary items. InuYasha made several `windows' to allow the natural light to enter the den. He placed them in ways that as the sun traveled the sky the light would always come in. Kagome went back to her time and picked up more plans for installing a working water delivery system into the den. When she came back, she found InuYasha had already started on this project and it was very close to what she brought with her.

 

Kagome even had InuYasha install several thick and large rings into the thick beams. A good handful was in their bedroom. When he asked his mate what those were supposed to be for Kagome just gave him that Mona Lisa smile of hers and said simply, `handle-bars and for lighting'. He remained puzzled about the handle-bars remark as Kagome, humming, hung several Hurricane Lanterns leaving a lot more free.

 

They had a fire pit with excellent venting that allowed smoke to leave but no snow, wind or rain to enter. Kagome had herself a decent sized kitchenette that had a shelf/basin where she inserted a camper's stove that ran on eco-friendly fuel. Two basins that served as sinks, she placed in large steel tubs for washing dishes and cleaning/rinsing food. InuYasha showed off his intelligence by creating a dual roomed cold cellar with sliding woven drawers for food stuffs like vegetables and fruits.

 

Their bedroom was an extra room was carved into the back off to the side. InuYasha used some of the furs and trees he collected to have a futon maker create four queen sized futons for their bed. Two to use and two to store away until needed. Kagome brought back extreme climate queen-sized sleeping bags for covers and InuYasha had a few demon bear furs prepared for the bed as well.

 

The finishing touches was when Kagome used both her blood and InuYasha's blood along with sacred sutras, her arrows and his sword's aura to create the most impenetrable barrier the likes that had never been seen before. Only allowing Kagome and InuYasha to pass through not even the hitchhiker Myouga or the lecherous monk or the now nineteen year old whiny brat that was Shippou could grab onto them and enter.

 

These unwanted intruders all wanted to know what was under the tree house that was so important to Kagome and InuYasha. Even after being told repeatedly it was none of their business and what was under the tree home was private. Miroku tried to use his spiritual powers to destroy the barrier while Shippou tried all his tricks and fox-fire on it. Shippou only stopped when Kagome told him she was very, VERY disappointed in him. Miroku was also caught as well and demanded that he stop but he wouldn't stop; in fact, he would sneak off and make more attempts to get in.

 

 

That night it was finished Kagome showed her beloved hanyou mate just how much she loves the den as they christened each room with their combined scents and mating essence. And it was also then that InuYasha came to love the benefits of the rings he had added. Seemed his sweet mate enjoyed being bound up to the rings as he fucked her from behind.

 

It was also perfect for the summer months when the weather was just so incredible hot and muggy that sleeping above ground was impossible and caused tempers to fray and flare out of control.

 

And, oh, those hot summer nights they spent heating up their blood as they explored the other's body stroking up the fires of desire and lust to feverish pitches before they united their bodies into one many, many times. How InuYasha would use his claws to lightly scratch lines of aching need over his Bitch's body and tickle her hard pearl of pleasure-express until she is writhing off the futon with need pleading with him to finish her off.

 

InuYasha's favourite phrase Kagome would say is “Please, please my Lord, I need to cum. Please let your love slave cum. She needs it so bad. Only her Lord can give her what she needs. . .” Only after his beloved mate had begged him a few times that he would spear her pussy with his Little Tessaiga and drill her into explosive orgasms that he would share in as he would fill her with his seed allowing her to rest a couple of hours before he felt the need to have her body again.

InuYasha had to stop abruptly when daydreaming in his memories a turn caused him to painfully give his now hard cock a `Hakama-Burn' (as Kagome had called it when he did this before, then explained it to him when he looked cutely puzzled that it was a friction burn), pulling a yip of pain from his lips. He moaned and doubled over in pain as he rubbed the ache away. Unfortunately this had a double-edged sword effect, it soothed away the pain but it also stimulated his Little Tessaiga into “Go-Mate/Fuck-Kagome” Mode as it jumped happily and eagerly under his hand. His breathing sped up as well until he was near panting outloud.

 

Groaning softly both in pleasure and annoyance, InuYasha waited until his stiff cock had sulked back down into a semi-erect state as it pouted at having being put off until later to get into Kagome's wet and wild tunnel ride and for his breathing to go back to normal before he set off again on his circuit.

 

Taking to the trees this time InuYasha silently prayed for his beloved Bitch to come back home soon. His mind soon wandering off down memory lane for another scenic drive. This time it was the great satisfaction InuYasha got when he finally got one on his much older and stoic full demon brother.

When InuYasha and his new mate Kagome finally crossed paths with Sesshoumaru, the Tai Youkai halted so hard in his tracks, from the sight of his hanyou brother and the combined mated scents from both, that Jaken went tripping over his Mokomoko-sama and somersaulting into InuYasha's causally propped up foot. Jaken was once again stuck fast to the younger brother's foot. He sighed morosely then inflated his cheek pouches just like the amphibians his kind evolved from in order to croak out his displeasure and slew of insults. But was cut off right at the best part -opening his mouth- by his lord's disgraceful brother calmly pressing his foot down squishing the air out of Jaken's ready cheeks like some Whoopee-cushion.*

 

The eleven year old Rin was happily chirping out sounds that reminded Jaken of the squirrel he once had the misfortune of meeting (and escaping with his life) as she went on and on about how InuYasha-sama's marking while happily in all child-given innocence raced in figure eights around the brothers as they faced off popping whatever came to mind.

 

They were so pretty and did InuYasha-sama do them himself? Did he get them painted on? Can Rin touch them? Why didn't InuYasha-sama have them before? Did it hurt to get them? Why did he have pretty purple markings and Sesshoumaru-sama have two red lines on his cheeks? How come he didn't have a C for Cute on his forehead like Sesshoumaru-sama does? Did InuYasha-sama know that when Sesshoumaru-sama is sleeping Rin would try take off his markings so she could try them on? And it wasn't fair Sesshoumaru-sama always woke up before Rin could. Hey, does InuYasha-sama's markings come off? Can Rin wear them too? How can Rin get markings like that? Rin tried to make her ears like Sesshoumaru-sama's but it only worked if she held them up like his with her fingers. Can Rin feel InuYasha-sama's ears? Is InuYasha-sama's markings messy because he is a grouchy old goat? Or did InuYasha-sama sneezed when he put them on? Or did InuYasha-sama forget to practice his collie-acky-fee? Rin could show him how to make nice and straight lines `cause Rin had been practicing and practicing her collie-acky-fee.

 

It didn't stop and Rin didn't seem to breathe between each uttered word so Kagome bent down and, smoothly interrupting, asked Rin if they could go and pick some flowers for their favourite doggies as it would make them so happy. And just like that the little girl's attention was deftly diverted away. Rin giggled happily and grabbed Kagome's hand to haul her off to get the best flowers leaving the two demons to have their `family' time.

 

InuYasha arrogantly crossed his arms in front of his chest, smirked raising one dark brow up as a challenge at his brother. `I have youkai markings now, brother. AND I have a mate. I get to lay with my mate whenever I want and she begs me for more. So what the fuck you gonna do?'

 

Sesshoumaru could only stare, his eyes not even blinking. His nose working overtime to process the fact that his little brother, a disgrace to his blood, was getting laid and he couldn't even get it up anymore. (The main reason why Sesshoumaru was walking and travelling so much was according to the ancient youkai healer his Mini-Fluffy was suffering from `Post-Traumatic-Stress Syndrome'. And after much a poking and prodding had gone on by wrinkly hands coated in demon slug mucus the proclaimed remedy for Mr. Limpy Noodle was walking. . . Lots and lots of walking.)

 

And to top it all off InuYasha's youki had increased ten-fold, allowing him to sport the most dashing shade of lavender markings ever to grace that skin complexion. While his own markings made his face look much too pale. Sesshoumaru's mind tried to assimilate all this information but it proved to be too much and so he did what came naturally to dogs in times of crisis, he let go of his muscles and (to InuYasha great pleasure/displeasure of the nose). . . dropped a royal log. . . .

Much, much later when the two girls came back with flowers in various presentations they were met with the sight of both brothers agreeing to an alliance and a healing of bridges. (Sesshoumaru was now sporting a fresh set of hakama and fundoushi.) Sesshoumaru asked for Rin to peel Jaken off his brother's foot as it was time for them to go now. Before they got too far away Sesshoumaru said one thing that made InuYasha's ego inflate to cosmic proportions, “You have chosen wisely, little brother. This one is your soul mate.”

 

It was only hours later that InuYasha gave into his urge and howled his laughter. His sounds of bliss were interrupted by his gasping explanations of why he was laughing so much to a bewildered Kagome who soon joined him in his merry mirth.

 

-

 

InuYasha's mind traveled into the gallery of his memories fast-forwarding to the three days later, after coming across his brother, when they had finally came upon the Slayers' village and pulled up the day that their friends found out. The worst and best day for him. . . and a day of healing.

 

 

Miroku had been his typical self when InuYasha and Kagome arrived at the Village of the Taijiya and told their three friends that they had become Mates, resulting in him being punched unconscious from one too many lecherous remarks. Twelve year old Shippou was oddly silent. Sango was more reserved about it. She was truly happy that Kagome was very happy with being Mated to InuYasha but she couldn't help feel slight revulsion at the thought of bedding a demon. Even if it was one that she cared about.

 

During Kagome's first words of telling Sango, Miroku and Shippou that they were happily Mated; InuYasha could smell the slightly arid revulsion that crept into Sango's scent and turned sad, knowing and world-weary eyes towards her. Their eyes locked and an unspoken conversation passed between them as Kagome continued to chatter away blissfully unaware of the expressions upon Sango's face.

 

`You are disgusted. . .'

 

`. . . I. . . Yes, . . . I still am a demon slayer to the core and the idea of being with demons like that does. . . upset me. . .'

 

`You. . . you think I should leave Kagome then. . .? To save her from this. . . from me. . .'

 

`NO!!! I think if you love her like I know you do then you will stay with her. Love her with everything you have within you. She deserves it. You deserve it.'

 

`I. . . I am unworthy of her. . . I don't know why she loves me so. . . . . . Why. . . why she chose me. . .'

 

`Let me finish, baka! She worships the very ground you walk on and needs you like she needs air, or water, or her blood to live. I can get over this. I can learn and change. I care for you, InuYasha - you are my Brother; but if you ever, I repeat EVER hurt her like you did with Kikyou. . . I will serve you your balls on a plate and introduce you to my extensive knowledge of slayer skills.'

 

`. . . I swear to you upon my Mother's grave; I won't hurt Kagome like that ever again. I. . . I l-love her, Sango. I love her so fucking much it hurts to be apart from her.'

 

`Then InuYasha, love her. Just simply: love her. I will support your decision. Be happy, both of you. . . you both more than deserve it.'

 

This took all the matter of a few seconds before Sango nodded her head slightly and finally smiled a heart-felt smile since finding out and moved to hug the gushing Kagome before turning and surprising InuYasha by pulling him into a warm embrace as well.

 

She took the moment to whisper into his ear, “Remember, InuYasha, all she needs from you is your love. She doesn't need anything else from you to make her happy. May Kami smile upon your union. I know I will. And my children will be raised differently; they will know to never judge others by their appearances but by their deeds and actions. . . their souls. My Brother, know that I love you and my Sister both.” When Sango spoke about blessing her friends union, she made sure her soft voice carried to all their friends' ears.

 

InuYasha broke from his shock to grip Sango tightly back in a fierce hug as he whispered in broken tones that clearly spoke of his soul's tears of joy and gratitude as centuries of hateful judgment began to wash away, “Th-thank you so much Sango. It. . . it means so f-fucking much to her, . . . to m-me. . .” Before the dam finally broke and he buried his head into Sango's strong shoulder, his body shaking with the force of his dry and silent sobs. His silent crying was joined by the open tears and sobs of both Kagome and Sango as Kagome quickly wrapped herself around both her mate and her sister hugging them tightly.

 

The only one who still hasn't said anything one way or another was Shippou. He silently felt the embers of hate for InuYasha and betrayed rage towards Kagome growing as he stood by and watched the scene; the chaotic emotional bonding, sharing and healing of his three traveling companions. He was careful not to let his scent become tainted with the essence of these emotions and they simmered, schooling his face into a neutral expression. `How dare that bastard half breed take away MY Kagome and taint her purity with his filth! She is mine! How dare she do THIS to ME! She must be made to pay! They both must pay!'

 

Miroku had started to regain consciousness just as Sango, Kagome and InuYasha finished with their moment of bonding. He had opened his eyes moments after they had broken the group hug apart to see Kagome and Sango smiling beatifically and wiping tears from their faces and nearly passed out again. . . There was InuYasha smiling such a joyous smile the likes he had never seen upon the surly hanyou's face. It was so open, so care-free, so happy. . . it spoke of the sweet innocent child that InuYasha used to be before his Mother's death and his first tastes of human hatred for hanyou.

 

And for once in the lecher's life made no sexual suggestive remarks about what he saw. He got himself off the ground and went to InuYasha and congratulated him. Turning to the independent Slayer, he asked Sango if she would marry him. Sango sobbed and collapsed into Miroku's embrace saying “Yes, yes I'll marry you. I love you, my lecherous baka.”

 

-

 

Miroku and Sango quickly agreed they wanted to be married as soon as they could even though Naraku was still alive. Gathering up everything they needed for the trip back to Kaede's village and for the ceremony, they set off for Kaede's. As they readied themselves to head out, Kagome was making the two adult males shake their heads at the non-stop talking that she was doing with Sango. Seemed she was just as excited as if it was her own wedding with the way she was carrying on.

 

Miroku had leaned in to the bemused Inu hanyou and calmly mentioned that maybe this should be a double wedding. . . InuYasha's ears flattened sideways on his head and his jaw dropped, he knew Kagome would want the same thing. In fact, he could scent the gentle yearning in Kagome when the word `marry' was uttered. So he did something completely shocking. He turned back to Kagome, walked over to his excited mate and stood before her waiting for her attention to fall upon him.

 

Once her eyes came to rest upon his and her talking drifted away into silence at the tender loving look on her mate's face that was when InuYasha went slowly down onto both his knees before her and taking her hands gently in his own warriors hands his whole demeanor and bearing morphed. He was no longer the hunted outcast, the `heathen' or the `junk-yard dog' type who spoke more with foul words and fists or sword; but became every nano-molecule the younger Lord to the Western Lands and spoke not like the brash and foul-mouthed hanyou he grew up to be but the refined, mature adult he kept well hidden.

 

“Kagome, would. . .would you make me Ramen for the rest of my life? . . . Please. . . Please, be with me forever. I love you for forever. Please. . . marry me. . .”*

 

Kagome's beautiful sapphire blue/smoky quartz grey eyes quickly filled with tears that spilled over and down her cheeks. Her hands squeezed her mate's hands, fingertips caressing his claws as she looked into InuYasha's hopeful, loving golden gaze. Her voice steady even through the tears as she answered his question, “Yes, InuYasha, yes. I will make you Ramen. Forever and ever, yes. I love you so much.”

 

InuYasha took his hands and kept a soft grip on Kagome's hands getting her arms to go behind her own back when he wrapped his arms about her waist and burying his face into her stomach. Not since that first feeling of completion since Kagome and he mated had he ever believed himself to be this lucky. First Mated in the Youkai way, now he will Mate with Kagome in the Human way.

 

Sango and Miroku, feeling the moment as much as the couple before them, slid into their own tender embrace. Miroku wrapping his arms about Sango's back as she mirrored his touches before lowered his lips to hers their eyes closing like whispers in the night.

 

Miroku was very experienced with both kissing and pleasing women ever since he had come of age; he had bedded and seduced women with a pretty impressive success rate. Even if his techniques had gotten a little rusty when Sango had joined the group and the two ladies had placed a big damper on his chances of success.

 

He tilted Sango's head back a bit to deepen his kiss. Tasting of her sweet, sweet nectar and knew he had found the one he can be true to. The one that completed him as much as his faith completed him. He finally understood what it is that InuYasha and Kagome both shared - that deep bond that could be felt in the very soul. Something that had eluded his comprehension for the longest time.

 

In all his 14 years of carnal knowledge; having this level of intimacy had not experienced by Miroku before. And he knew without any doubts none of the women he had been with before could ever compare to the intense passion, the deep completion that came from loving Sango.

 

Sango whimpered softly under his tender assault of her lips before she parted her lips and lapped gently at Miroku's lips who eagerly opened up to her questing tongue. Sango had been kissed by men before and had out of a sense of curiosity explored a man's body when she was younger and her father's student Haro, her friend, had slept over. They both had belong their explorations into their sexuality. They had not been intimate but they did learn what was pleasing about touching and being touched.

 

InuYasha and Kagome watched the kissing couple and just smiled softly recognizing the sense of completion that Miroku now had mixed in his aura and the sense of being loved even though she was in a `man's' role in Sango's aura. InuYasha was content to remain where he was for the moment with his head against Kagome's stomach as he basked in the warmth of his mate's embrace. Kagome was not only content to remain entwined with InuYasha but she was already dreaming and planning ways to make the honeymoon beautiful while rewarded her sweet hanyou for making her childhood dream a reality.

 

They would be getting married soon and it would be a joint affair, they all silently agreed, celebrated between two of the most deserving couples ever.

 

 

 

The only one who was not happy with the turn of events and the sight of the half-breed with his property was Shippou. He had to devise a way to prevent them from marrying, to make Kagome see the Truth and accept that Shippou owned her. He allowed the jealousy to build up and twist into an ugly monster within his teenaged mind.

 

 

Finally, Miroku and Sango broke their sweet embrace and turned to face their friends with blushes on their faces and red swollen lips. They had forgotten they had company when they kissed so focused they were on the other.

 

“Keh. Looks like you finally learned Miroku,” teased gently InuYasha a smile playing upon his lips.

 

Miroku was about to say something that would have definitely ruined the moment when he stopped himself. Instead he tenderly took Sango's hand in his own and simply said, “I do believe you are right InuYasha.”

 

The glowing look of love in Sango's eyes as she caught his gaze only helped him to understand more about his past behaviours and he knew he wanted to see this look in Sango's eyes than the one of hurt betrayal she normally showed when he groped other women effectively treating her like dirt as he did this.

 

“I think we should head back to the village then. We have a couple of weddings to plan and prepare for,” Kagome said happily as she reluctantly let InuYasha up and out of her embrace.

 

When Kagome went to take Shippou's hand - he `accidentally' smacked her hand away when he got out a leaf to change into a bird with a big bushy fox tail and big `Totousai' eyes. He threw a curt `sorry' over his wing and flapped off stirring dust into Kagome's face. These little `accidents' steadily increased as they made it back to Kaede's village and his usual mistreatment of InuYasha bordered more on the lines of what Naraku had been capable of.

 

It finally came to a head one particularly nasty day -a few days before the wedding- when thirteen year old Shippou finally let his feelings came spilling out like venom. Screaming that InuYasha had `completely ruined her' when he mated with Kagome and that Kagome was HIS not InuYasha's. After all, didn't she love HIM better? She brought him candies, let him bathe with her and Sango all the time while punishing InuYasha (and of course Miroku), letting him always share her sleeping bag while InuYasha slept in trees or by the fire, ALWAYS taking HIS side when it came to InuYasha and keeping the half-breed in his place with the kotodama. That all this made Kagome his servant, his property.

 

InuYasha took all this silently, hating each poisonous arrow that was fired at him, his ears laying back until they were buried in his silver mane. His shoulders drooped and his very fears felt like it was swallowing him alive. All his self doubts that Kagome took so much time with soothing and easing flaring up anew. He began to withdraw into his shell again when he felt Kagome's aura burst into flames.

 

Kagome's temper grew more and more with each hateful thing that came out of Shippou's mouth until she couldn't stand it anymore. Her hold on her temper broke and she laid into Shippou. She yelled at him citing all the times InuYasha protected him while he did nothing but run and hide, all the times InuYasha made sure he was well fed and had somewhere safe to sleep while sleep was denied InuYasha. How many times did InuYasha receive wounds or how he had them endangered because he couldn't keep his mouth shut. Or how many times he made scathing remarks about InuYasha when they faced other demons. How InuYasha went and made him look good in front of the girl he cared so much for just so he could be a hero in her eyes.

 

Kagome stopped yelling and started crying when she began to blame herself for being too kind and too overly ignorant when it came to teaching Shippou manners and the respecting of others. That she had been so incredibly lax in being a proper guardian by not punishing him when he overstepped the line with what was funny to what was cruel and abusive. She gave InuYasha a very teary apology for all the times she abused the command on him when it is now so clear he had been trying to discipline the out of control kit. When he couldn't help but lash out in self defense after one too many vicious jeer from the kit or when he tried to protect his sensitive ears from being ripped apart by Shippou's teeth.

 

She ended her outburst by saying if he couldn't respect InuYasha and treat him better then it may be best that they take Shippou to the Kitsune Inn and leave him there where he would be happier with his own kind. Kagome told him that he had three days to think about how much he has hurt her and InuYasha by acting like a monster and thinking selfishly like this. In three days, they would go to Kaede's hut, where he will being stay, to see him to either receive his apology and promise to treat InuYasha better or to take him to his own kind and say their good-byes, permanently.

 

 

After three days of very hard thinking and soul searching, Shippou found parts of him he didn't like and realized all that he had done in the past to InuYasha and he became disgusted with himself. He felt greatly shame for the way he treated someone who protected and sheltered him, who without words accepted him as family. He thought about what his long departed parents would have thought of him and his actions and his guilt and shame deepened. He had behaved so dishonourably!! He had been so selfish, so arrogant that he didn't even bother to try and increase his own powers instead he simply relied upon Kagome for protection and feeding him. He was completely incapable of surviving on his own!

 

So when a stoic Kagome came back with InuYasha, Shippou surprised them by slowly going to his hands and knees before he pressed his forehead to the ground and gave them a long heartfelt and much overdo apology. He told them everything he had discovered when he thought about what Kagome said and was ashamed. He then solemnly asked InuYasha if he could ever find it within him to teach him how to hunt and defend himself.

 

Kagome's eyes glittered with unshed tears. She was praying Shippou would come to this realization and that they didn't have to go their separate ways just yet. InuYasha on the other hand was taken completely aback by Shippou's honesty and very heartfelt apology. If he was shocked by that he was shocked that Shippou had politely asked him to train him how to fight to defend and how to hunt. InuYasha did the only thing he could, he told Shippou he couldn't see any problems in teaching him how to fight and hunt.

 

And that started the new bond between the three of them, one that was healthier for all and it created a deeper level of caring to the point Shippou could call them his brother and sister outloud.

oooOOOooo End FlashBack oooOOOooo

Kagome had her yellow backpack full of more supplies and wearing her short full skirt reminiscent of her old school Sailor fuku in a cheery blue colour and a tank top that was mostly white with a large heart decoration in the center of it like a bulls-eye in different shades of red to pink. Saying her good-byes she jumped into the Well that would lead her to her beloved mate InuYasha bursting with the news that she was now ready for `Pups' as he called them. The effects of the birth control shots were officially out of her system and her body was back to its regular ways. She had spent the week in her time while the doctors did a few tests to make sure she was ready to try pregnancy.

 

As she leapt into the Well her subconscious began to worry about whether or not she would be strong enough for having pups and protecting them from any threats should her mate be away or Kami forbid be unconscious, human. . . or dead. . . She choked back a sob that clawed at her throat. She knew InuYasha was frightened that he may seriously harm her should he lose himself in the rut, that he may be killed leaving her without a mate or protector. . . leaving his pups fatherless like had been. He would never show or speak of these fears but Kagome's heart and soul knew of them and had told him on many an occasion after sweet love-making that she understood without him saying anything.

 

She wanted to be stronger, . . . faster. That she could assure her suffering mate that she could do her part and then some. She wished so many times that she could be a hanyou too. As she longed to feel the way he felt, experience what he experienced whenever he ran, leapt, fought and made love to her. During their runs together and their enthusiastic love-making, and many a-times quite literally fucking, Kagome could feel the highly contained incredible power in InuYasha's surging and rippling muscles. The way his skin felt like silky water over the repeatedly tensing and releasing of each muscle group. See the chords of tendons when he arched and climaxed above her in his releases. She had him try to explain the sensations to her a few times but with InuYasha couldn't find the correct words to describe it. In fact, he had uttered the same wish once that she too could feel the world about her like he did when he thought she couldn't hear him. But she had and to her credit said nothing, knowing it was something he hadn't meant to say aloud.

 

The Blue magic of the Well immediately engulfed her but this time was different, it felt more solid like there was more resistance to it somehow. Kagome began to worry that she may be trapped and never see Inuyasha again. Her heart sped up in her upset and she struggled until she felt a sudden huge and powerful surge of both demonic youki and jyaki within the Well's magic. These pierced her body with millions of tiny backward facing barbed arrows; her own spiritual powers rising up in response to the sudden assault of demonic essence and powers and with the impressive strength of a bomb exploded within her. . . .
