Chapter 20: Inumenternity: Month 2

 

“Just look at me! I'm so fucking fat!!!” cried InuYasha from inside the locked closet. Somehow he had managed to have it locked from it from the inside so no one could enter to get him. “No one wants me!!! Not even Sesshomaru! Go away!” InuYasha sobbed as he tried to hug his legs to his chest, but miserably failed as his growing stomach got in the way.

 

InuTaisho sighed to himself. This was the second time that afternoon that InuYasha and Sesshomaru had locked themselves up. Sesshomaru was still in the storage closet just down the hall. InuTaisho had yet to find out why he was in the closet. Last week Sesshomaru had locked himself in his father's closet because he wasn't able to get the food he wanted. A food that was found on the mainland and it would take days to get there. He had ordered it anyways, and by the time it got to Sesshomaru, he no longer wanted it.

 

Now InuTaisho faced a hormone raged InuYasha, who was crying over the fact that he was too “Fat”, and the fact that Sesshomaru didn't love him anymore because he had disappeared earlier and locked himself in the storage closet, causing InuYasha to think about the situation. So now he was in the closet calling himself fat.

 

“InuYasha, come out. Please?” InuTaisho called knocking on the door. “No one thinks you're fat son. You're just very pregnant.”

 

“Yes they do!”

 

InuTaisho gave an exasperated sigh as he leaned his forehead against the cool closet door. “No they don't.”

 

“What about Sesshomaru? I don't think he loves me anymore…” InuYasha sniffed, his voice was muffled behind the solid wood door.

 

“I think Sesshomaru is just having his moment of wanting to be alone. You know how he is.”

 

There was a moment of silence. InuTaisho figured that InuYasha was contemplating whether or not to come out.

 

“Come out InuYasha, you know you want to. You can have the last of the Ramen noodles that you have been gobbling down the past weeks. Better come get them before I do. I'll be down in the kitchens in a bit after I try to get Sesshomaru out from the storage closet.”

 

That was a sure way of getting his son out. Ramen. It would be the last of the noodles since he was unable to journey back to Kagome's age for a while. Especially since his sons were becoming very pregnant. Sure, they wouldn't be that defenseless. However, he would not risk putting his grandpups in any danger. He knew Naraku would strike randomly, so he wanted to be prepared.

 

 

Heading out of his son's chambers he headed down the hall where Sesshomaru sat dormant and most likely in the same emotional state as InuYasha. InuTaisho knew how his eldest son hated the feeling of all his emotions running amuck. Sesshomaru always had control of his emotions. Only a few times InuTaisho had witnessed his son losing such control over himself. He wished his son to never have that happen again.

 

The pregnancy now was causing their hormones to flare; it was quite amusing to the elder Inu to bear witness to.

 

Reaching the door that was again locked somehow from the inside, `How are they managing this?' he asked himself silently as he knocked on the door lightly. “Sesshomaru, come out. What is the matter with you?”

 

No reply.

 

“InuYasha thinks you're mad at him and he thinks that you no longer love him.”

 

“Nani?” was Sesshomaru muffled answer.

 

“Hai, come out now.”

 

“No. But I'm not mad at him. I thought he was mad at me?”

 

“Why would he be mad at you, Sesshomaru?” InuTaisho asked.

 

“I don't know. He is always upset or something… It makes me feel like a failure.”

 

“Sesshomaru… That isn't true. It's just the pregnancy that's causing all of this. I remember when your mother was pregnant. She was very sensitive. I remember how she almost took off my head as I had come in on her while she was bathing and decided to sneak up on her and just hug her. Phew… I hope that never happens with any of you. Wouldn't want any of you two to lose any limbs… Especially you, Sesshomaru,” InuTaisho said as he recalled his son's missing left arm.

 

“Are you sure it's just the pregnancy?” asked Sesshomaru through the door.

 

InuTaisho gave a mental sigh. “Yes, I am sure. I've dealt with two pregnant women before. I'm sure.”

 

InuTaisho heard the shifting of clothes inside and feet shuffling, going to the door before there was a clicking sound that signaled the door being unlocked. Sesshomaru appeared in the door way holding the door open. His eyes were puffy from crying. His belly was getting nice and round like his mates. The silver tail appendage swished side to side shyly.

 

“Gomen… I cannot control these emotions any more! It's like this body is no longer my own…” Sesshomaru said with a small sniffle as he started towards his father with an outstretched arm. His father opened his arms to hold him as he came into his embrace. Sesshomaru's rounded belly kept some distance between them.

 

“There is no need to apologize, Sesshomaru. It is perfectly natural. Now, let us go have a bite to eat. I'm sure those pups are hungry?” InuTaisho smiled as he pulled out of the embrace. “InuYasha will be down with us shortly too.”

 

~~~***~~~

 

Naraku looked through his incarnation's mirror. Naraku had been kept in a slumber to recuperate his strength the past month. The last he had checked up on the Inus, they had just slipped into slumber. Naraku hadn't expected his sudden energy level to decrease as the poison in his blood downed him once again, causing him to go into a deep slumber. He had been planning on attacking their dreams in their hours of rest. Naraku cut off from the idea and fell into a sleep for more energy.

 

Now Naraku awoke to something entirely unexpected.

 

The mated pair now both expecting pups.

 

What a surprise this was! And a delectable treat! However, this could work to his advantage or disadvantage.

 

It could be a disadvantage because it would now be doubly difficult to capture the pair and their unborn pups with all the guards and demons around who were loyal to the damn dog lord of Saigoku, land of the West, and who would die protecting their lords. There was the lord InuTaisho who stood in his way.

 

He was a challenging adversary, one that could bring him to his knees. To Naraku, the more dangerous the demon, the more delectable and savory they were when they were under his control.

 

The advantage now, was that Sesshomaru and InuYasha were weak. They would not be able to defend themselves for long. And they would be in a weaker state when the pups were born.

 

The Kumo knew that the pups would drain their parent's energy to give themselves strength to grow strong in exchange. He knew that when they would be born their parents could die in the birthing process. It would solve all his issues if the death of the pups' parents, InuYasha and Sesshomaru, did occur. But that was dreaming big.

 

Now, it was time to plan a new plot.

 

If he could just capture the pair before giving birth would be just as sweet. But if he managed to capture them afterwards… It'd still be just as sweet. Then he could fuck them silly! But then again, where is the fun in a tired Inu demon that has just given birth? Capturing them while pregnant there could be some spitfire still in them! It'd make a feistier rape! `Oh a joy that would be just to have their struggling body beneath me as I pound into them!' Naraku thought silently.

 

If the pups were born in his `care'; that was if they lasted that long; he'd torture them! And kill them before their parent's very eyes!!! He would make sure they had a slow painful death. Maybe he would strangle them? A better idea was to let them bleed to death or possibly poison them.

 

Naraku could almost squeal in delight at his wicked thoughts of how to kill the puppies. He was now just itching to hear their crying yelps as his tentacles slowly wrapped around their frail necks and squeezed until their little heads popped off. To hear the screams of Sesshomaru and InuYasha as they watch their pups die a horrible death!

 

Oh what a truly wonderful plan he was coming up with!

 

It seemed that the little slumber did his mind some good. Now he could think of more ways to kill them both as well as to kill the pups!

 

Another plan he suddenly had was to slice the puppies to pieces, slowly… carefully so that they lived long enough to feel the pain of being ripped apart alive! Naraku could just shudder with pleasure.

 

So many ideas flowed through his sadistic little mind. He wasn't sure how he would kill them. He could try to drown them? No, that was too merciful… Smash them slowly? Nah, it was too quick of a death. Starvation was another option. It was kind of cruel; however it was not painful enough.

 

Turning his crimson eyes back to Kanna's mirror which was now showing a pregnant Sesshomaru hugging his father before pulling away; he smiled. “Thank you Kanna. This is a sweet surprise to my awakening,” Naraku said brightly as his eyes watched the Lord of the West and his son, Sesshomaru, head down to their great hall.

 

If he couldn't attack now he would play games with them.

 

Naraku would allow the puppies to grow for a while then perhaps when they are ready enough to be born in the weeks of his `care', he would come for the two. He would make sure nobody stood in his way.

 

Naraku knew when he killed the pups; it could also trigger the parent, or in this case, parents to go into a sudden heat. Much like a wild animal would when another mating male came along and killed the pups just to mate with the parent. And inu demons in heat were a fine delicacy. One he wouldn't want to turn down when he killed off the pups. It would save him the poison that he had used on InuYasha and triggered his heat.

 

For now, he could only send demons to try to weaken them.

 

He would settle for that. Naraku just had to find a demon strong enough to get past the guards now. . .

 

~~~***~~~

 

“What do you mean I can't have it!!!” growled Sesshomaru who was glaring at his father with a death glare.

 

InuTaisho ignored the death glare from his son who was sitting at the long stone table, across from InuYasha who had come down soon after them and had taken his place across from his mate where he ate his Ramen noodles in peace and quiet. He was ignoring his mate who was making a fuss over a food he wasn't allowed. There was hardly anything that his mate wasn't allowed in food.

 

“Sesshomaru, how many times must we discuss this matter? Let me repeat myself once more and repeat after me: Chocolate - cake - is - not - good - for - dogs! Chocolate - cake- makes - dogs - unhealthy - and - sick - which - equals - unhealthy -pups!” InuTaisho bit out for the 3rd time. “You do not see InuYasha eating that junk.”

 

“I don't care! I want it now!” Sesshomaru snarled, pounding his fist into the table much like a child would do when it didn't get what it wanted.

 

“What else do you want? - besides chocolate cake!” InuTaisho quickly added, “Don't even say it mister!” upon seeing his son's lips start to form the words for chocolate cake.

 

If Sesshomaru had both his arms, he'd be crossing them across his chest at the moment as he swished his tail angrily. He had been getting a lot of weird cravings for the most horrible things that were bad to eat for dogs. Of course he was not able to have such foods and he got extremely angered over it.

 

Two weeks ago he had gone the kitchens to try to sneak some food that was unhealthy and his father had caught him in the act. Sesshomaru had just about torn out his father's throat as he swiped his father's chest when InuTaisho had grabbed the food from Sesshomaru, earning himself some large gashes and a torn-up kimono from his son's claws. He had wanted to reprimand his son for the act, but he knew it was just the pregnancy. However, Sesshomaru's own actions had not gone unnoticed from himself as he suddenly had snapped back to and looked at his claws that were covered lightly in his father's blood, when he suddenly broke into hysterical tears and apologizing.

 

InuTaisho was surprised that his son hadn't learned. Well, he had slightly. It was not to slash at his father. But as hormonal pregnant male demons were, it is always a mystery to find out what is going to happen next.

 

“Okay. Hmph, I'll have what he's having,” Sesshomaru grunted and pointed to InuYasha who had been eating quietly until just recently when his mate eyed his food, earning Sesshomaru a cold glaring threat that read: touch my food, and you'll be sleeping on the floor! “And I want cherry jam and fish sauce mixed into it.”

 

InuTaisho could have gagged at the odd request. “Sesshomaru that was the last of the Ramen noodles. There isn't any more.”

 

Sesshomaru growled at his father. “Then get some more!”

 

“You're acting childish. I can't leave you two alone. Naraku would probably work up an attack if I left you alone. Just eat what we have now. If you want noodles and the mixed jam and fish sauce, I'll have them cook you up some. I'm sure there isn't a difference between the two. Now sit down and behave, I'll be back with your damn food.”

 

Sesshomaru huffed sitting down across from his brother who was enjoying his food again. Staring at his brother a small calm came over him. “So you're not mad at me?” Sesshomaru asked suddenly.

 

InuYasha slurped up the last of his noodles before speaking. “No.”

 

“Okay good.”

 

“Why would I be?”

 

Sesshomaru shrugged. “Just was a thought.”

 

“…”

 

A small silence passed as InuYasha downed the liquids in the soup bowl and picked up a nice apple which he took a large bite of.

 

“I can't wait until this is all over… I can't deal with these fucking hormones!” Sesshomaru admitted as his tail flopped into his lap and stroked it lightly. “I'm not supposed to cry over simple things!!”

 

“I know, mate. I know,” InuYasha sighed sadly as he took another bite of his apple just as one of their father's guards came to greet them at the table.

 

“Sorry to bother you my lords, but you have visitors. They say their names are Kagome, Miroku, Sango and Shippo. Do you want them to come in?”

 

InuYasha remembered them; they were the ones who saved him on the river bank. Kagome had brought him back to her time to get the proper medical care that he needed to survive. Surely he might have been dead if it had not been for her bringing him to her time. The doctors had given InuYasha that damn helmet that his father and mate had forced him to wear countless times during the time he had returned and through the past few weeks until InuTaisho figured it he was healed enough to remove it. But during that time he had taken every chance he could to have it off, which was most of the time.

 

The pills that were given to him were not taken, though. InuYasha had refused on that one. Sesshomaru was sure that they may have worked if taken as a Hanyou, but since InuYasha was a full demon now, he wasn't sure that the pills would have been strong enough to have any effect on him.

 

However Sesshomaru had applied the ointments that had been prescribed for his injuries on his back and the rest of his body. Those had been applied often throughout the day. The ointments cooled the itchy scabs that littered his back and the rest of his body. It was a relief to have.

 

But now InuYasha was no longer in need of anything, now he just needed to watch to make sure he doesn't harm himself or the pups.

 

Now all remained of the ordeal were the scars that covered his heart, mind and body. Not to mention his missing left eye. An eye he hoped would grow back and heal someday. But for now he was only grateful that he had received the care that their age hadn't offered.

 

“Yes, let them in,” InuYasha said as he kept his seat. InuYasha bit into the apple again and stretched his arms as he rubbed the back of his head before he ran another hand through the silver hair that was growing all over except the scared areas where the stitches had been placed. It wouldn't be long until his hair was thick long again. Maybe in a few months it would be back again. But it was heavy late summer now and he would enjoy being cool.

 

“Your hair is coming in nice now, otouto.”

 

InuYasha pulled the apple from his mouth. “Thanks, it's only an inch long… It hasn't grown very much.” Sesshomaru watched him finish the last of the red apple before setting the core down in the empty soup bowl.

 

Sesshomaru shrugged watching his mate's ears turn in the direction of the approaching foot steps. Turning to look at the guard who escorted them through the hall they came to a halt.

 

All who had helped take care of InuYasha while Sesshomaru had still thought him dead were there. The miko, slayer, the monk, the neko and fox kitsune were standing before him as InuYasha and himself rose.

 

InuYasha dismissed the guard with a wave of his hand. “It's good to see you all again. Thanks for helping me when I was in need. But what an unexpected surprise it is to see here.” InuYasha and Sesshomaru may have hugged them had they not been feeling the protecting need over there growing stomachs that were becoming more and more evident through the shrinking kimonos.

 

“Hai, yes we were just in the neighborhood and we decided to drop by,” Kagome said smiling.

 

“That's nice of you, thanks,” Sesshomaru said.

 

“Wow, you've really gotten better! The last time we saw you were pretty… beat up,” Sango said looking over InuYasha. She noticed that he was looking a little big as well. Looking over to Sesshomaru, he also was getting rounder around the middle. “You've both been putting on some pounds too! What a good recovery you must have had.”

 

Sango didn't know what she said but she watched suddenly as the formal hanyou's ears drooped in a sad expression and then quickly pinned back flat against his skull. His face contorted into a face that was ready to break out in tears before it actually happened. “I KNEW IT! I'M A BIG FAT ASS COW!!” InuYasha cried out hysterically before racing towards the stairway leading to Sesshomaru's and his chambers.

 

Sango looked utterly confused as she looked at a Sesshomaru who seemed to be struggling with his emotions. “What did I say wrong?” she asked just as InuTaisho walked in carrying Sesshomaru's weird mix of food.

 

InuTaisho must have heard it because he gave a long weary sigh as he set the bowl down for his eldest son and said, “Don't worry about it, he's been emotionally unstable like his mate, due to their pregnancies…”

 

All of them were shocked at the news. No one expected such thing to happen because they were both males. But then again they were inu demons, and inu demons were capable of such ability, as most other demons were capable of producing offspring.

 

“Yes, you heard me right,” InuTaisho confirmed. “Now, Sesshomaru, come over here and eat. I made this just for you.”

 

Growling at his father's order he went over and sat down as he sniffed at the bowl, satisfied that it was what he asked. “Yeah, this pregnancy is too hormonal for me,” Sesshomaru muttered coldly before shoving the noodles in his mouth; ignoring the temperature of the food.

 

“How far long are you two?” asked Sango as she got over the shock.

 

“Just going into the middle of the second month,” Sesshomaru answered as he took another bite of the odd combination of food.

 

“Wow, you're getting quite… large for being pregnant that long,” Kagome said slowly.

 

“Yes, InuYoukai have litters often, and they can be many. InuYoukai also have their pregnancy's last about 7 months. So they are going to grow quickly,” InuTaisho explained as he watched his son consume the stomach-churning combination of food.

 

“Oh I see,” Miroku said as he took a seat at the table with the others.

 

“Indeed,” InuTaisho said. “Well I think I'll be right back, I have to go fetch InuYasha. He's been having emotional problems with dealing with his weight lately. I'll be back shortly. Are you hungry?” he added quickly.

 

“Yes, food would be pleasurable,” Shippo said, followed by an agreeing mew from Kilala.

 

“Alright I'll send the servants in to bring you some food.”

 

“Thank you,” Kagome said with a bow of her head.

 

“You're welcome. Just make sure Sesshomaru here, doesn't try to order or sneak off to get some chocolate items. He's been bitching about wanting to have some when it's bad for him and the pups.”

 

Sesshomaru coughed on his noodles and shot his eyes up at his father coldly. “I do not bitch!”

 

InuTaisho rolled his eyes wearily. “Whatever you say…”

 

~~~***~~~

 

“Damn it InuYasha!” barked InuTaisho frustrated as his son had locked him out of his room. “Just come out of the room! They didn't know you were pregnant! You're again not fat!”

 

“Yes I am!!!” cried InuYasha through the door.

 

“Fine, I'm not going to go get you more Ramen noodles if you don't come out!”

 

“You were not going to give me any anyways!”

 

Frustrated, InuTaisho suddenly got a bright idea. If the doors were closed on the outside, the open balcony was always an entering option. Leaving to go a few doors down he entered an empty bedroom and headed towards the terrace where he took a long leap and made his way quickly to his son's door/windows and entered, catching his son off guard.

 

“You can never lock your father out for long. Now come along InuYasha,” he said sitting down on the bed where InuYasha was crying. “You're not fat, now why would I lie about that?”

 

InuYasha shrugged and sniffled. “I dunno…”

 

“Exactly, now come on. You know you want to meet our friends again, after all, they did help you immensely.”

 

“Keh… Okay.”

 

`That sounded much too easy,' InuTaisho thought as he got to his feet. He led InuYasha to the door and unlocked it. Holding the door open for him he passed through and InuTaisho followed closing the door behind him at the same time of making sure it wasn't locked.

 

“I really do not feel like seeing anyone today, I'm tired,” InuYasha said as he walked at his fathers right side as they made their way down the hall. “I am excited they're here, but eating really made me tired. I should be sleeping it off.”

 

“Well if you want to, later after they leave you can rest with Sesshomaru. I'm sure he needs a nap too. The way he acts, it is insane.” InuTaisho gave a sigh and continued, “But we cannot just abandon our guests. That would be rude.”

 

“Hai, of course Father,” InuYasha agreed as his ears twitched as they scanned the surroundings every so often. “So where is mother today? I have not seen her around.”

 

“No doubt, you've been locking yourself up the whole time, it's a wonder how you ever see Sesshomaru,” the old dog youkai snorted. “Well, I think she is out with her nigen friends bragging on how you're going to be parents and of her becoming a grandmother again.”

 

“I thought I told her not to brag,” muttered InuYasha.

 

“That's a female for you. I'm sure you'd do the same once you got out of here to talk with your friends. And I am already sure you love the idea of having pups.”

 

“Sort of, it's of an odd feeling.”

 

“Oh, I am sure it is. But soon enough, you'll be popping them pups out,” he chuckled.

 

“Not something I am totally looking forward too, but I'm sure it will make me feel better.”

 

InuTaisho nodded as they started down the stairs. He was sure the birthing process was going to be possibly the most painful thing they would ever experience. It would be dangerous to everyone that was in the same room as them, he could just feel it.

 

~~~***~~~

 

Sesshomaru had just finished his meal and set his bowl aside. The noodles he had been craving satisfied his nerves for now. Now he turned his full attention to the group that had arrived just over 30 minutes ago.

 

Sesshomaru had told them between eating his meal what had happened and what information they had found out about their male pregnancy. Kagome had suggested that they really should start planning out and practice parenting, as they were both first time parents.

 

“My mom probably has a few parenting videos on birth and pregnancy, maybe you could come back to my era?” Kagome suggested.

 

“Videos?” Sesshomaru mimicked back, puzzled by the new word. “What is that?”

 

“It is a recording of something. It goes into a machine and it shows motions of things. I'll show you if you come over,” Kagome smiled.

 

Still confused, Sesshomaru shrugged. He would find out sooner or later. “Father doesn't wish us to leave the castle; it's too dangerous to be out.”

 

“I think it may be a good idea to come to my era so you can check on your pups. Parents always go to the healers to see how their babies are. It would be a good experience don't you think?”

 

Just then InuTaisho and InuYasha walked in. “I think it would be a great idea,” InuTaisho said. But he was still weary about the idea of having his sons and their pups being exposed to danger. Then again they were always in danger. “When are we able to go over?” He wasn't going to let the opportunity pass. InuTaisho knew that Naraku was still weak and wouldn't face all of them at once. He would be out numbered.

 

“Whenever you want,” Kagome smiled. She was pleased that she was helping InuYasha and Sesshomaru by bringing them to her time. Then Naraku wouldn't be able to attack. Or so she was hoping…
