Epilogue:
Five years later Kikyo sat in the rocking chair on the porch and watched her mate playing with their three year old pup, while she nursed their newborn son. She'd spent the morning and most of the afternoon tending to the villagers and now was relaxing with her family.
Inuyasha laughed as their daughter tackled him.
"I've got you now daddy!" Her fuzzy black triangular ears twitched and she laughed when he tickled her tummy. "Daddy, stop that! Ha ha ha!"
Inuyasha playfully growled and tossed her into the air, catching her in his arms. "Who's got who now? Eh?" He did it again.
Amaya squealed and clapped her hands as her amber eyes twinkled.
Kikyo smiled as her heart beat inside her chest and the wind blew her hair in her face. 'It feels so good to be alive again.' She watched the love her life acting like a kid with their pup and smiled as the newborn suckled her breast.
XOXOXO:
At the edge of the slayer's village Sango's stomach tightened as she knelt next to the grave of her beloved brother. Tears pricked her eyes as she laid a hand over the stone. "Kohaku, I'm sorry that I failed to protect you."
The pain in her chest was unbearable as she remembered how Kohaku had died in her arms. The scar on her back from his sickle burned as the tears slipped down her cheeks.
Miroku placed a firm hand on her shoulder and turned her to face him. Her pulled her into his arms and rubbed her hair gently. "Sango, I know this isn't easy for you, but you must remember that you didn't fail Kohaku. You did everything you possibly could to get to him and to protect him."
Her tears soaked the chest of his kimono and her shoulders shook as she sobbed brokenly. "It just hurts so much, Miroku. He was my baby brother."
Miroku pulled back and stared into her eyes. It hurt seeing the deep pain in her eyes. He kissed her cheek. "I know love, but at least he isn't suffering anymore."
His hand rubbed up and down her back. "We've done everything we can for him. His soul has found peace love. Naraku can't hurt him anymore. Let's go home." He scooped her into his arms and cradled her to his aching chest and then carried her home.
Kagome stood by her kitchen window washing dishes. She looked up and spotted the couple returning. "Welcome back. Your twins are outside with Ban and the kids."
Miroku smiled. "Thanks Kagome. Um, would you two mind watching them a bit longer?"
She smiled. "Of course. Make sure Sango gets plenty of rest."
He smiled and nodded and then carried his wife inside their cabin.
Kagome turned off the water and stared at her husband's attempt to duplicate the plumbing of her time. Bamboo rods went from the sink to a wall outside and crossed under the ground over to the water well, where they hooked up to the hand pump. She smiled and walked over to the well.
She laughed when she heard her daughter squealing and saw her son tackling her husband.
Shippo bounded over. "Hi mom."
"Hi Shippo. Are they behaving?" She grinned.
Shippo laughed. "As well as kids that young can."
She smiled. "Good." She laughed as she was scooped into powerful arms.
"Come here you." Bankotsu planted a big wet kiss on her and she laughed.
"Ooh, daddy kissed mommy."
"Ew gross. Papa!"
Bankotsu grinned. "Oi, I like kissing your Mama, so get used to it, Toshi."
The four year old boy with his mom's brown eyes and his father's face scrunched his nose and backed away. "That's just nasty."
Bankotsu smirked. "Some day when you're older, you won't think so."
The boy stared at him with utter disbelief in his eyes. "Whatever. I'm going to play in the river. Race you there Shippo." He took off running with Shippo right behind him.
Kagome laughed and shook her head.
A four year old girl with her black hair in pigtails and her father's brilliant blue eyes, tugged the on her father's hakama leg. "Daddy, can we go see the pretty flowers?"
He grinned and scooped her into his arms. "Okay princess."
Natsumi giggled. "I'm not a princess."
Bankotsu gasped. "Really?"
She giggled and nodded.
He smiled. "Well, you are to me."
Natsumi blushed and hugged her father's neck.
Bankotsu hugged her and walked over to the small area he'd built with large glass windows and a controlled environment.
Natsumi's eyes lit up as she took in all the bright colors of the various flowers. She pointed over to the herbal section. "Over there, daddy."
He smiled and walked over to his small herbal garden. "Do you want to help me water them?"
"Hai." She squealed and clapped her hands.
He gently placed the watering can in her hand. "Now remember, only enough to keep them healthy." He helped her water the plants and kissed the top of her head. "Good job."
Kagome smiled as Miroku and Sango's three years old twins held her hands and they carefully walked through her husband's botanical garden. She watched as Bankotsu meticulously cared for the herbs and then took their daughter around showing her the 'pretty flowers' and other plants. She watched his smiling face as he explained each plant and their many uses to their ever eager to learn daughter.
"Aunt Gome?"
"What is it Kohaku?"
The little boy who looked much like his father but had his mother's soft brown eyes, bit his bottom lip. "Will mommy be okay?"
She knelt before the child and wrapped her arms around him. "Mommy will be fine; it's just a very emotional day for her."
Sachiko huffed. "Duh, it's the day Uncle Kohaku died in battle."
He frowned. "Oh."
Kagome sighed heavily. "Hai, it is the anniversary of that horrible day." She hugged the boy close. "It's especially hard on your Mommy, because he died right in her arms."
Little Kohaku sighed and stared at the ground with his shoulders slumped.
Kagome pulled back and took their hands. "Now then," She led them outside. "How about we all go swimming?"
She laughed at the chorused "Yeah!" and "Yay!" She received from the kids.
Bankotsu whipped his head around sending his braid flying into his daughters face.
She coughed. "Oi, daddy! Be careful with that thing."
He laughed and tweaked her nose. "Sorry princess." He set her on her feet and they walked outside holding hands. They walked over to the water and he picked her up before jumping into the river.
Kagome laughed and splashed her husband. "Oi, don't jump in. You'll scare her."
Bankotsu snorted. "Iie, she's not scared that easy because she's my daughter." He grinned and puffed his chest out.
She chuckled. "You would say that."
He grinned. "Well, it's true."
Kagome laughed. "Hai, she is indeed."
They splashed each other and dunked the kids at various intervals. Kagome's face filled with the same carefree nature she'd been filled with when they first met all those years ago.
Bankotsu smiled as he watched his wife acting like a kid, enjoying the sunshine and quality time with their family. Feeling like a kid himself he joined in and allowed things to take their own course for the rest of the day.
