Chapter 21: Visitations part 1

 

Kagome Higurashi waited as the dog family prepared themselves to leave to go down the Bone Eaters well, which would lead them into her time. There they would seek out one of the doctors to help out with taking care of them and their pups that were to be born in the coming months. It would be an interesting experience to see.

 

“Are you ready?” asked InuTaisho to his mate decided to come along seeing as she was also going to be a grandparent to the pups. InuTaisho was going to have the slayer and the monk keep watch over the castle with the servants and the guards. InuTaisho figured that they would not be long - a few weeks at the most. Maybe they would stay a month or more if they felt the need to stay longer for the protection from the dark hanyou Naraku.

 

“Yes, I think this is all I will be taking. After all, they do have stores there,” Izayoi said as she handed her husband a small pink silk sack which he slung over his shoulder.

 

They were wearing normal clothes that you would find in the miko's time. Both were wearing blue jeans. InuTaisho wore a plan lavender-blue tee shirt and his mate, Izayoi, wore a tight fitting grapefruit pink colored shirt with `Cutie' written over the chest. She had seen it in one of the stores and decided to pick it out. InuTaisho figured it was perfect.

 

Running his hands through his loose hair he had sighed, “Let's go see if our boys are ready,” InuTaisho smiled, taking his wife's hand and leading them out of their bed room and to the stairway leading them down to their son's chambers.

 

 

 

“I think that we're going to need some new clothes in a month or so, InuYasha, I already feel like I'm about to pop,” Sesshomaru said blankly as he stared over to his mate, InuYasha, who looked at himself naked in the long mirror in the corner of their room. InuYasha looked like he wanted to cry as his own image of himself was loosing its lean slender, muscular form in exchange for a bulging one. Sesshomaru knew the feeling all too well. It was time to get rid of the nasty mirrors that made them so depressed.

 

“Don't even say it… I don't even want to think about not fitting into my fire rat clothing…” InuYasha said depressingly as he swished his tail and moved to the bed to pick up the fire rat clothes that were folded neatly on top of the ruffled covers. The pregnant demon held them up in observation as he thought of not being able to wear them. They had been with him all his life and were given to him by their father as a gift of protection for when he had been a hanyou. Now they were less necessary as his body was stronger and much more powerful than when he was a hanyou.

 

“Well, koi… you're going to have to live with it,” the older mate said as he tucked his tail into the back of his miko-era styled casual gray pants that were just starting to get tight. Sesshomaru couldn't help but feel extremely fat as he adjusted the belt before figuring it was too tight around his stomach as it was and tossed it onto the hamper near by. `Gods! How fat am I going to get?' he whined to himself mentally.

 

“Well so much for wearing these today. I guess I should wear the scrub-blue pants that Kagome brought me. They look comfy. And they'd fit,” InuYasha sighed, setting down his fire rat haori and picking up the blue scrub pants that he had seen his doctor Kai, along with some of the other healers, wear when he was at the human hospital. Bending over to put his foot into the first legging, he stiffened suddenly and let out some gas.

 

Sesshomaru, who was just feet away, turned from brushing his silky river of hair in one of the mirrors on the other side of the bed, looked at his brother with a slightly disgusted look upon his face before narrowing his eyebrows and eyes at his brother. His tail beat against his back leg beneath the legging in aggravation. “Did you just… Fart?” he asked with difficulty.

 

A very hot red blush flushed across InuYasha's face as he realized what his body had done. “Oh… I'm sorry! Excuse me! I really didn't mean to do that. I really didn't!” he said quickly, slipping with little difficulty into his blue scrubs. He really did not get gas that much and if he did it was often when he was not with Sesshomaru and if it were it was in a bubbling hot spring. “I really am loosing my body…”

 

“Yasha, it's alright. I know you didn't mean it.” Sesshomaru set down the brush on the bed as he walked back to his brother and wrapped his arm around his rounding waist. Nuzzling his mate's neck he took a deep breath of his scent - ignoring the foul other scent still lingering around him. “You still smell nice.” Running his hand down his mate's side he found a slight depression where he had torn a large chunk into his mate's side while mating. It would heal but still leave a slight scar. It was going to be the same with him as well seeing how he had a large depression in his own side from InuYasha. It was a good sign of their commitment, trust and love to one another. It was not totally understandable why mates tore chunks into one another when mating but the commitment, trust and love was a likely theory.

 

“Okay, but I think we should finish putting our things together and not have a quickie. I'm sure we can do that later regardless of how tempting it is now.” InuYasha hummed as he pulled out of Sesshomaru's embrace reluctantly to tie the drawstrings of his pants after quickly making sure his tail was in all the way inside the pants while he looked around for something loose to wear on his chest. Finding nothing other than the formfitting white beater tank top he sighed as he felt even more self conscious of how he looked in it.

 

“Want me to pack your things?”

 

InuYasha shook his head, going over to the walk-in closet to pick a silk red sack and picked up a stack of pants before looking at them. They were jeans as Kagome had called them when they last visited. Now InuYasha was sure they wouldn't fit him. And if they did not fit then he was sure that nothing else would. His hakamas were out of the question as they were too out-of-place in Kagome's era and it wouldn't go too well with some. They would draw too much attention. That was something they didn't need. “I don't think I'll bring anything other than what I am wearing. I highly doubt that I myself being a big heifer would fit into anything here other than my hakamas but you know how that is another story,” InuYasha said wearily, setting down the silk sack next to the helmet near the door.

 

There was a sudden knock on the door. Sesshomaru and InuYasha looked at the door. “Enter,” Sesshomaru said lightly watching their parents enter the room.

 

“Are you two finished?” asked InuTaisho looking around the room which only contained a small stack of clothes on the chest at the end of the bed, which the clothes belonged to Sesshomaru.

 

“I'm only bringing a pair of clothes. Nothing will fit for long and I don't like the feeling of half of these clothes,” Sesshomaru said as his fathers gaze fell on his pair of clothes that he planned to bring.

 

“Well we can always go get more when we get there. But I suggest we should go now if we want to get there soon. Will you two be riding on each other or on me like Izayoi plans to?” InuTaisho realized how bad that sounded but the two got the message.

 

“Seeing how my energy is lacking at the moment and I'm sure that InuYasha either doesn't know how to transform yet or does not have the ability too, I think that we shall be riding on your back,” Sesshomaru said, picking up his clothes and placing them in a silk sack neatly.

 

Ever since InuYasha's transformation that had occurred while being held captive they had thought he would turn into a full dog demon form like InuTaisho and Sesshomaru. But it never occurred. Since he was hanyou before, he wasn't capable of doing so. The only thing the hanyou was capable of shifting into was a deranged blood-lusting demon. However, that was rare. The inu clan had yet to witness InuYasha shifting into a white dog.

 

“Alright, I guess if you're both ready we should head down to the entrance way to meet the humans. Do you have everything you wish to bring?” InuTaisho asked, looking around again.

 

InuYasha hummed and went to open the chest his mate's clothes had been previously resting on. Digging around he grabbed the silk sack that Sesshomaru was holding in his hands and discretely placed some items into it. “Okay, that's all,” he said pulling the drawstrings on the bag and handing it to Sesshomaru who rose an eyebrow in question before InuYasha stood up straight and walked over to him, pulling down his head and whispering into his elf like ear. “Toys for later…”

 

Sesshomaru gave an O face and grinned and put the bag over his shoulder. “Ready now,” Sesshomaru said as he started towards the door.

 

InuTaisho would have figured that they would be bringing such things as he had caught his sons whispering to each other and then grinning. He wanted no thought of it however. Following his sons out of their chambers with Izayoi, he closed their door and started down the stairs again.

 

“I can't wait until we head back there! There is so much to see!” Izayoi said happily, clasping her hands together.

 

InuTaisho nodded.

 

 

 

 

Kagome's present time~

 

They had arrived safe and sound to the well and made it with little complaint from the two pregnant males who claimed from the look of the well being too small and that they would not being able to fit through it. However when they saw Kagome slip through it with little effort with the extremely large yellow bag on her back they decided they would not get stuck and all five of them crossing over into the present time for Kagome.

 

Now the 3 of the five who were now waiting at the top of the well while the two sons of the Taiyoukai stood at the bottom of the well looking at the rickety ladder that would carry them out of the well. It looked extremely unsafe to the pair as they eyed it with distrust. “That doesn't look safe,” InuYasha grumbled to Sesshomaru who gave a slight nod.

 

“C'mon! You climbed up it before!” Kagome said down into the well.

 

“No, I've leap out of the well. I did not climb out of it. And that was when I was thinner and less lazy,” Sesshomaru said with a huff as he shot a glare of ice at the miko who was looking down at them. Sesshomaru crossed his arm over his chest, wrapping it on the other side.

 

Kagome rolled her eyes. “Well okay be a pair of fat heifers' than!” she said before quickly exiting the shed over the well, leaving behind a furious pair of demons at the bottom of the well.

 

“We're not fat!” cried InuYasha feeling even more self conscious about his weight.

 

Sesshomaru had that look in his eyes of fury as he started up the ladder awkwardly; to prove he wasn't a fat ass and he could prove the human wrong. InuYasha who was looking at his brother climb the ladder decided that he could do so too and quickly followed behind him.

 

Reaching the top he hauled himself onto solid ground before lifting InuYasha to his side. They followed Kagome into the open where she led them to her home. It would be a second visit for Izayoi, Sesshomaru and InuYasha.

 

“Mother I'm home!!!” Kagome called out as she removed her shoes and set them aside next to the door.

 

Everyone followed her lead of removing their shoes, save for InuYasha who preferred always to go barefoot. The home was quiet as Kagome ushered them to the sitting room. “I think she's upstairs, I'll be back with her. Just make yourself at home.”

 

Sitting down in the sofas' and chairs the family waited patiently for Joy Higurashi to come down. InuYasha looked to his blind side to see a calico cat appear at the thrush way to the living room. Sesshomaru looked over too as he too recognized the calico cat. “Hello Buyo,” InuYasha said as he patted his lap for the very fat cat to come over.

 

“Oh what a cute kitty, I didn't see him here before!” Izayoi said as she saw the over obese cat.

 

“He must have been sleeping,” InuTaisho said as he watched the fat cat climb into InuYasha's lap and nuzzled his hand purring.

 

There was some footsteps coming down the stairs near by and they turned to see that Joy and Kagome were coming down. “It's good to see you both again. I congratulate you both on your pregnancies. It's great to hear!” Joy said happily. “Kagome just told me of it before coming down.”

 

“Thanks, we're happy too,” Sesshomaru said with a slight grin.

 

“How long are you two?” Joy asked coming over to stand closer. She wanted to feel their stomachs'. She remembered how nice it was to have Kagome and Souta. It was a great experience, one she hoped to happen again if she ever found another husband. Her no good son of a bitch ex left her for a blonde tramp about 15 years ago. She was getting older; soon she would not be able to bare children.

 

“Two and a half months,” the two said in unison.

 

“Oh that's interesting. You both look like you're about 4 months,” she said surprised.

 

“But they're dog demons mom. They're not human like us,” Kagome reminded.

 

“Yes, that and dog demons often have litters instead of single births. We're sure we're having a litter. I just hope it isn't so big. It seems like a lot of work as it is,” Sesshomaru said running his hand over his rounding belly. It was also tiring work and keeping up with eating then sleeping then sex which was probably going to be less soon.

 

InuYasha rubbed at the sun marking on his forehead as if he had a headache. “Sounds tiring but I suppose it'll be worthwhile in the end. It is kind of weird of how we both are pregnant. But it is nice in an odd way.”

 

“Double the mood swings, double the fun!” InuTaisho chuckled, earning him glares from his sons. “Oh yes and double the food at dinner! Didn't know they would eat so much! Well more than usual,” he replied simply as he was growled at by his moody sons. “Nonetheless, it is nice to know I'm going to be a grand father.”

 

“And myself a grandmother,” Izayoi smiled.

 

Kagome and Joy stifled their giggles.

 

“Well at any rate, I think we've come for more than visiting,” InuTaisho said passively as he placed his hands in his lap. “Kagome has told us that you could get these two to a healer who knows about such pregnancy matters?—of course I've had some pregnant females in my life time but males can be different, yet not so different from females when it comes to cravings et cetera they're no different. Nonetheless, I want the best for my pups and their own pups.”

 

“Quite understandable, and of course things maybe arranged in the same day as an appointment. I'll get right on it, just give me a minute or so,” Joy smiled bowing as she got up and left the room and into the kitchen.

 

Kagome turned to the family, “Are you both nervous about this sort of thing? Going to the doctor and the whole deal of being pregnant?”

 

InuYasha shrugged. “In a way yes and in a way no, I like the idea of having pups because things would be more interesting and livelier. But I really am not sure about giving birth and parenting. It's all really odd…”

 

Sesshomaru nodded in agreement.

 

“How many do you really think you'll have?” she asked inquisitively.

 

Both of them shrugged. “Not sure. More than one each I can say that by how tired we are. And to think it is only the beginning of this pregnancy,” Sesshomaru sighed as he drummed his finger pads over his rounding stomach.

 

“Have names yet?”

 

“Nope, we haven't even thought about it. But perhaps we should start to pick,” InuYasha suggested as he leaned closer to Sesshomaru and rested his head on his shoulder.

 

“Oh…”

 

“Do we get a say in names sons?” InuTaisho said lightly.

 

“Yes, you can help if you want too,” InuYasha said with an agreeing nod of his mate.

 

“Oh! Good! Then I can use some female names that I wanted to use for InuYasha, but he came out a boy so the female names wouldn't work,” Izayoi beamed.

 

“All right, you can name the first female, Mother,” the former hanyou agreed.

 

Sesshomaru gave a lazy sigh as he felt the urge to eat, pee, poop and then feeling the urge to sleep. “I need to pee, I'll be back.”

 

InuTaisho narrowed his eyes and watched his eldest head to the bathroom upstairs. He knew where to go and did not need directions. They had been there before and if they hadn't, Sesshomaru would have used his nose to sniff it out.

 

 

Sesshomaru really had to pee. The Daiyoukai hadn't realized how he had held it in so long as he stood there relieving himself. He stared at the peach wallpaper before looking down at his where his hand was leading to. The golden eyes widened a great deal as he realized that the bulge that was growing outwards would soon prevent him from seeing his penis! And to think suddenly about it, the prince just realized how it was slightly becoming difficult to reach down there!

 

Sure he a youkai usually didn't require urinating every couple hours or days! It didn't even occur to him yet that he had been going even more. Not yet at least. Sesshomaru just thought it normal. Yet a sudden panic hit him now, the panic was that he wouldn't be able to reach down there if he got any larger! And Sesshomaru knew that he would be getting larger!

 

What would he do if he couldn't do that- hold his dick!?

 

“DAMMIT!” he snapped shaking it off before skillfully putting it back in his pants and closing his pants. Washing his hand he dried it off before turning to see a long mirror in the corner near the toilet.

 

Sesshomaru lifted his shirt and looked at the round bulge. “You guys better not get any larger!” he said as he felt the urge to cry. “I want to fit in my hakamas when we get home!”

 

Sighing he put down his shirt and smoothed it before going down the stairs to meet with the family and friends. He figured he should just be quiet; it wouldn't help bitching about it like a bitch. The pups would grow and that was that.

 

“What the matter, Koi? Why were you cursing up there?” asked Sesshomaru's mate as he turned to face him with concerned.

 

“It's nothing,” Sesshomaru said dismissingly.

 

Sesshomaru looked as Joy entered the room again. Taking his place by his mate's side again he watched her lean on the arm of a green chair. “Well, I have you an appointment with Dr. Kai in a few hours. We should start to get ready. The paper work takes a while. We can also stop for dinner.”

 

“Good because I'm starving!” InuTaisho said patting his flat abed stomach.

 

“We're hungry as well,” InuYasha said speaking for his mate and pups too.

 

“Alright, we can stop at McDonalds or something along the way,” Joy said.

 

“What is that?” Sesshomaru asked puzzled.

 

“It's a veal place where they sell burgers and fries. Those are beef and things that come from cows. They have chicken and all sorts of things. I'm quite sure you'll both love it!” Kagome explained to the feudal era demons.

 

“Oh! Sounds good! Let's go!” InuTaisho said enthusiastically as he jumped to his feet. “I love veal! It's good roasted over the fire!”

 

Kagome sighed and started towards the car.

 

 

 

 

“Yes, we'll have 20 double cheese burgers, 4 large fries that are super sized, 5 sodas; Pepsi, diet Pepsi, lemonade, orange and orange juice. Then we'll also take 3 garden salads please. That's all,” Joy said speaking to the cashier as he gaped at her before repeating what she ordered before giving her total.

 

“May take a few minutes ma'am, we'll call your number on the recite up when it's ready. Here are your drinks though,” the ginger haired tall teenager handed her the cups and drink holders and recite which she took with a smile to the boy and went back to the table in the far corner of the fast food restaurant and sat down to wait for the order. The dog demons seemed to have their eyes fixed in the other room that was connected to the main part of the building, where there were colorful tubes and plastic balls and nets. It was the playgrounds for the children who came to the place.

 

“What is that..?” InuYasha questioned as he looked at the odd colorful tubing.

 

“That's a place where children go to play while their parents watch or talk to others. It's like a social environment for children so they can play with each other. It is quite fun. Though I'm getting too big now for it, I use to do some playing in them in my childhood years,” Kagome explained as she picked up her salad bowl.

 

“Oh, looks fun,” InuYasha said lightly.

 

“InuYasha, I think we're too old for it. Also too pregnant to even attempt such acts of childish behavior,” Sesshomaru said dryly as he looked at his first burger unwrapped before him. Casting a weary look to his father, who was already downing his own with satisfaction, he decided he would have some.

 

“You're never too old for anything,” Kagome said, grabbing her drink.

 

“Wow! These are delicious! It's almost as good as ramen!” InuYasha said, his ears perked up high in excitement as his tail wiggled beneath the layer of clothing. “Just try it Sesshy!”

 

It was true! It was delicious! It definitely hit the spot in his stomach. Now he was feeling like he was wanting more and more of them as he quickly polished off that burger around the same time InuYasha was starting his second burger. “I think this is the best thing I have had since we came here,” Sesshomaru said taking a generous bite of the double cheese burger.

 

“I'm glad you like it. How is your salad, Izayoi?” Joy asked looking past a feasting InuTaisho, to spot his wife picking lady-like at her salad.

 

“It's luscious, thank you Joy,” she replied.

 

 

It wasn't long until the burgers, fries and sodas were gone. The family was now stuffed and satisfied, and it was now time to hit the road. It was getting to be the time they should be heading off to the doctors.

 

“I've never felt fatter!” groaned Sesshomaru, rubbing his stomach in discomfort. And just eating that much just about overdid it on his stomach, not to mention the carbonated drinks which filled the rest of him up.

 

“I definitely agree,” InuYasha burped as he climbed into the back of the vehicle and strapped up for the ride, taking his seat close to his father. His mate Izayoi was on his lap, since there was no more room for others with Kagome and her mother in front and there were only 3 seats left. And of course they were going to Sesshomaru and InuYasha who were both pregnant. It wouldn't have been a good idea for both to be on each others lap while in a moving vehicle.

 

InuYasha waited for his mate to climb in after him and close the door and quickly buckle up. The two didn't mind riding in a car since they were already tired from eating so much and walking would cramp them in their sides. Driving by car would let them rest for a while as they watched the world pass by.

 

Hearing Joy start the car, they knew they'd be there soon.

 

The only thing that worried the two fathers to be was that they'd be taken somewhere to have tests run on them. They both knew that humans didn't have males giving birth or anything of that sort, and it was their nature to find out why. Curiosity always occurred.

 

If anything of that sort would ever happen, they would both do anything they could to kill or get away from it. They would most likely have to go by their instincts should their other senses fail.

 

“Isn't this so exciting?! I just can't wait to see the pups when they're born! I bet they'll be just adorable!” Kagome cried like an excited school girl.

 

“Vicious too, I hope!” InuTaisho chimed in.

 

“Yeah, they'll bite your fingers right off if you go near them, father,” Sesshomaru said coolly with a small weary smirk.

 

“Better watch your nipples! They'll rip them off!” InuTaisho laughed.

 

InuYasha perked his ears at that and quickly sat up from leaning against Sesshomaru. “No! Don't say that! They'll hear you and get ideas!” gasped InuYasha covering his stomach defensively.

 

The Taiyoukai snorted. “I don't think they even have their ears yet.”

 

“I wouldn't be so sure,” Joy said as she kept her eyes on the road.

 

“Yes! So shut up!” snapped InuYasha before he gave a `Keh,' and crossed his arms.

 

“I am just saying-”

 

“Shut up! I don't want them to be killers and bite my nipples off!” growled InuYasha as turned his head so he could see past his blind spot and shoot a glare at his father with his one eye.

 

“Okay, I'm sure they'll be nothing but tuff and fluff,” InuTaisho said with a mocking sigh.

 

“Damn straight they will!”

 

“I don't want our pups to be all fluff and tuff. The tougher they're the better,” Sesshomaru said finally.

 

“What did you say?” InuYasha said, turning his head so now he was looking at his brother with a glare. The one-eyed demon couldn't believe that his mate was differing with him and siding with his father. Did he want his nipple bitten off? Well he certainly would get it bitten off!

 

By him!

 

“Just think of it, Koi, You don't want Naraku to pup-nap them without getting hell from them now, do you?” Sesshomaru said as he saw his brother give a visible shudder at his name and give a slight pained expression from the small flash of memories before going back to his angry face again.

 

It was obvious he hadn't forgotten and the memories were still lingering close to the surface. The older mate knew his mate would never overcome the experience completely. It was a scar that was meant to last forever.

 

“I guess you're right,” he sighed in defeat.

 

InuTaisho hummed and turned to look over at the two. Now that his name was brought up, something seemed to occur to him. “Are we going to stay here when the pups are going to born?”

 

“I don't know; I don't really want them to be. I want them to be born at home. Though the current age does have good medicine and other things to help out, but I want them to have a normal life and not be born here. So I guess I want to go back home when I have them. Why do you ask?” InuYasha asked, with a nodding Sesshomaru.

 

“I hate to bring this up, but I think it needs to be discussed that when we go back, there is a very big possibility that Naraku will be there waiting. I have no clue if he knows about this situation but if he does we're in trouble. It is why I'm so cautious about leaving till the pups are old enough and you two are strong enough.”

 

InuYasha lowered his gaze. He knew it was true; such thoughts were at the back of his mind always. When would Naraku come back for him and how? He was alive and slowly biding his time. They couldn't hide forever.

 

“Well, I think he'll come either way, so there is no point in biding our time, right?” Sesshomaru said calmly. “There is no use in prolonging the inevitable.”

 

InuTaisho nodded slightly, “perhaps… but I suppose we will get to that bridge eventually. When we do, we'll take him down.”

 

"But for now let us not stress ourselves about this situation. It isn't good for InuYasha, myself and our pups. The last thing we need is InuYasha getting more traumatized," Sesshomaru said lightly as he tightened his hand around his mate protectively. Some how, Sesshomaru knew that another assault on his mate would surely break his mate to pieces, and not even he would able to mend the pieces together.

 

Something inside Sesshomaru made him almost not want to go back home. Yet another part of him said he belonged there. He was sure the feeling would fade, but he had always trusted his instincts. Regardless, he would return when the time was right and deal with the feeling in his gut.

 

At the moment, Sesshomaru wanted just enjoy the moment while it lasted. What moment was that though? Being fat and overweight like a heifer? To think that this was only the middle of the second month!

 

`You're not fat, you're pregnant,' InuTaisho's echoing voice reminded him.

 

Mentally Sesshomaru sighed to himself.

 

“I agree,” InuTaisho agreed drawing Sesshomaru out of his thoughts. “I will not let anything happen to either you two or the pups. Not on my life or any other.”

 

Sesshomaru closed his eyes in weariness, hoping that those words would speak some truth as he rested his head on InuYasha's shoulder, deciding to doze until they arrived. Nothing would kill time and thoughts like a good nap.

 

InuTaisho looked over to his eldest son and smiled. `Out like a light…'
