Chapter 1

 

A little boy was sitting in front of a young girl as they waited in the woods for their friends to find them. "Are you sure you can't catch any scents Shippo?"

 

The little boy shook his head no as he turned red puffy eyes to her. The girl wasn't doing to well, she was severely injured and the boy had no idea what to do. When he heard a twig snap, he jumped up and started growling at the disturbance.

 

It was a woman with light blue hair and turquoise eyes. She also seemed to be heavy with child. Her eyes snapped to the growling kit, then over to the young woman. "Is she alright?"

 

The kit quit growling, sensing that the woman meant no harm to them. "I'm not sure. She got hurt trying to protect me and we were separated from our friends." He started crying again as he grabbed the girl's hand.

 

"I might be able to help a little." The other woman whispered as she walked towards them. The little kit started growling again but did nothing in case she could help, though he was prepared to attack. She laid her hand on Kagome's chest and a pale blue light formed around her hand and spread to Kagome's wounds.

 

They slowly began to heal as the glow continued. It stopped before she was completely healed, but the girl would be fine now. The kit ran over to her and hugged her. "Thank-you for healing my momma!"

 

The pregnant woman looked at the human she just healed, then at the kit. "She's human, how can she be your mother?" She asked curiously. Neither of them noticed that Kagome had just woke.

 

"Well, my momma died when I was young and my father was killed a while ago. Kagome took me in and takes care of me, so I kinda think of her as a mother. She doesn't know that though, I'm afraid she won't accept me." The kit looked at the ground.

 

"Of course I'd accept you." Came a sweet voice that had Shippo snapping his head up and looking at her. The other woman did the same. "You're my son Shippo, I'd accept you no matter what." She held her arms out and Shippo dove into them crying as Kagome stroked his hair. "Thank-you for helping me miss." Kagome said as she turned to the other woman.

 

Said woman smiled sweetly at her. "Hina, my name is Hina."

 

Kagome smiled at her. "My name's Kagome" she then motioned to Shippo "and this is my son Shippo." Shippo looked up at her with tears and she smiled warmly at him, which caused him to smile. Looking back up at the other woman, she kept her smile. "What kind of demon are you?"

 

A ghost of a smile appeared on her face. "An Ice Maiden, or Koorime. Though I'm in a bit of trouble with my home."

 

"Why's that, if you don't mind me asking?"

 

Hina looked a little apprehensive. "I'm pregnant, but my pregnancy is forbidden."

 

"How can pregnancy be forbidden?" Kagome asked as she cocked her head to the side.

 

"My kind are self-reproducing, and we have no men in our village. Men are thought to be evil creatures, and I well.... took a male lover. This pregnancy is a result of that and my time of reproduction."

 

"Does that mean you'll have two children?"

 

"Actually yes. One will have both my and it's father's characteristics, and one will be pure Koorime or Koori depending on the gender."

 

"What is the father? Is he going to help with the children?"

 

A sad smile crossed the ice maiden's face. "He was wounded and captured protecting me, but he is a fire demon."

 

"I'm sorry to hear that." Kagome quickly apologized. She then looked at the older woman's belly and hesitantly spoke. "May I umm.... feel the baby?" The female youkai smiled and nodded. Kagome gently placed her hand on the woman's stomach and before she could stop it, her aura came out. The pregnant woman tensed, but Kagome realized what was happening when she felt two little auras. She smiled at the demon. "It seems that my power wanted to show me your children."

 

"What do you mean?" The other woman asked curiously.

 

"I can sense a boy and a girl. The girl has an aura like yours, but the boy feels like opposing elements."

 

"So my little boy with have both fire and ice powers?" Hina asked with a smile.

 

"It seems like it." Kagome's aura swirled around her as they continued talking. Neither noticed that her aura was intertwining with both the demon and the babies. "Do you have any idea for names?"

 

"I think I'll name the girl Yukina, I'm not sure about the boy."

 

"What is his father like?" Kagome asked softly.

 

"He is powerful with dark black hair and deep red eyes, he was fast, when he runs it seemed that he is nothing more than a shadow."

 

Kagome started giggling. "Why not name the boy Hiei then, it means flying shadow?"

 

Hina's eyes lit up. "That's a wonderful name! I'm sure Hotaro will love it."

 

"Hotaro?" Kagome questioned.

 

"My lover, and I'm hoping to find him." Hina said sadly.

 

"I'll help you look for him. We can set out tomorrow since I need to find my friends anyways."

 

"Oh thank-you!" Hina said cheerfully.

 

"Let's get some rest for right now."
