Love's Choices

Chapter VIII

Day Of Departure

 

I wonder how Yusuke will react to the animals?

 

Summary: You love more than one person, but who do you choose? Kagome as always loved Inuyasha, but on a visit to her old friend she meets Hiei. Falling for him over the duration of the stay, but who does she choose, her new love Hiei or her first love Inuyasha? And Inuyasha has his own choice to make. The dead Kikyo or the living Kagome? Everyone seems to have their own choices to make! But when they make their choices, will it be too late?

 

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Yuyu Hakusho or Inuyasha! I wish I did, but sadly... I don't.

 

Let's talk telepathy

When the appointed day came, Kagome decided to go to people one at a time to say her good-byes. First was Sango. "I'm going to miss, but I'll be back."

 

Sango shook her head. "Take everything with you though. I want you to be well prepared."

 

"I will. Start making babies and I'll be back in a few months."

 

Sango blushed but nodded. "I'll be sure to be pregnant so I can show you upon your return."

 

"Good." Kagome said with a large smile. "cause I can't wait to be called Aunt Kagome."

 

"I'll remember you said that." Said a male voice from behind her. Turning around, she was met with a big hug. "I'll make sure there're plenty of little children running around calling you Aunt."

 

Kagome giggled at the man's lecherous yet cocky smirk, as well as Sango's deep red blush. "Good! Now I need to go see Kaede, then the wolves, next Sesshou, then Kikyo, and last will be inu."

 

"We'll see you in a few months then." Miroku said as he kissed her brow. "And don't forget to hide your markings."

 

"I won't." Kagome said as she ran off. Her good-bye to Kaede did not take long, neither did the ones to the wolves. She ended up seeing Kikyo before Sesshomaru, and said good-bye to her after explaining the true reason as to her leaving. Sesshomaru, of course, already knew. Running into Sango once again, she was surprised when the neko jumped into her arms.

 

"Kirara wanted to go with you."

 

"I promise that I'll take good care of her."

 

Sango nodded before leaving. The previously missing Kohaku appeared and bid her farewell, and she met Inuyasha at the God Tree. "I'm sorry that I haven't been able to make my decision yet Kagome."

 

She walked up behind him and hugged him tightly to herself. "I know that you haven't, and I want you to know that no matter what I'll always be there for you. If you choose Kikyo, I will always be your friend and sister."

 

"Is that why you're leaving?" He asked suddenly. "To give me time to make my choice?"

 

"Yes and no. That is one reason why I am, but my main reason is to be able to visit with my old friend. He and I are very close, he's like my older brother and I miss him."

 

Inuyasha turned, hugging her as tightly as he could. "I'll miss you." He whispered before he let her go and watched as she ran back to the village to gather her things before she left. Gathering all of her weapons, she went and collected the animals, then the children. Sesshomaru of course was curious as to the time that she'd come out in on the other side of the well, so she told him. He seemed to be really anxious to know.

Kagome and the children easily made it out of the well house. Shippo picked Rin up and hopped out, Kagome attempted to hop out. She made it to the top, but couldn't get over it. Grumbling slightly to herself as the two other giggled, she pulled herself over the edge. Sighing, she placed the weapons against the side of the structure, except for the two swords that would be taken into the house with her. Slowly she made her way into the house, she needed to pack clothes and have everyone get a shower. Rin could get one with her, but she'd have to show Shippo how to get one on his own.

 

Her mother was awake when they entered the kitchen. "Who's this?" She asked motioning towards the girl.

 

"Rin, my newly adopted daughter."

 

"Sesshomaru's charge?" At Kagome's nod, her mother smiled brightly. "Take her and get your shower, once you're done I'll take her out to get some cloths."

 

"Hai momma."

It was hours later that they piled into the car and drove to the school. The graduation ceremony took entirely too long in Kagome's opinion, but she still sat through it... considering she had to. Imagining how bad it was for Rin and Shippo allowed her to remain idle long enough. After that, she told her friends that she'd be leaving for the summer and that maybe she could come back to see them sometime.

 

After making it home, everyone sighed in relief. Kagome's mother however, dragged her back outside. "There's something that I got for you."

 

The girl cocked her head to the side and looked at the older woman. "What is it momma?"

 

"A gift for defeating Naraku and graduating."

 

What Kagome saw made her scream in joy and hug her mother as tight as she could. "You got me a car!"

Kagome carefully piled her things into her new car. Hiraikotsu and her other weapons were placed in her trunk with a concealing spell. If opened, it would appear as if nothing was in there, and you can't sense the weapons energy either. Their things were also tossed in with the weapons, and Kagome had both Rin and Shippo sit in the back seat. Kirara and Kage took the passenger seat as the two wolf cubs curled up between the kids. Sighing, she pulled out and headed to Yusuke's house. When she was close enough, she called him on her cell phone. "Hello?"

 

"Hey Yusuke, I was just gonna let you know I'm almost there."

 

"Ah, well my friends are here at the moment, you don't care do you?"

 

"Not really, I kinda just want to pass out."

 

"Is your mom bringin ya?"

 

"Nope, she got me a car for my accomplishments." Kagome answered cheerfully.

 

"Sweet, what kind?"

 

"You can see when we get there. I'll be there in a few minutes, k?"

 

"Alright." Click. He hung up and turned back to his friends. "Kagome'll be here soon."

 

"Do you want us to leave then?" Kurama asked calmly.

 

"Don't have to. From what she said, I think she'll go to bed once she gets here."

 

"What made her that tired?" Kuwabara asked.

 

Yusuke rolled his eyes at his friend. "She takes care of that one boy and normally Souta, plus her graduation was today." At that moment, they heard the roar of an engine and Yusuke walked over to the window. His eyes immediately widened. "Well fuck me, she's got a corvette!"

 

Kuwabara's eyes also widened as he raced to the window to look outside. Sure enough, a corvette was pulling up in front of the house. "Wow... Think she'd let me ride in it?"

 

Yusuke shrugged. "Dunno, but I'm gonna go see if she needs help." And he walked outside. "Need any help with anything Kag?"

 

The girl in question turned and smiled brightly. "Yep! First I need to get Rin inside."

 

By now, the other three were outside as well. "Rin? That the other person you asked to bring?"

 

"Hai." She said as she opened the door and picked up a little girl.

 

"I'll take her inside momma." Shippo said as he took the girl from his mother's hands.

 

"Set her on the couch for now." Yusuke said, and the boy simply nodded. He then noticed the furry creatures standing at his friend's feet. "What are those?"

 

Kagome smiled cheerfully. "What my friends gave me... or at least part of what they gave me. This is Kirara, Kage, Kiba, and Hige." She said as she pointed to each one.

 

"Are Kiba and Hige wolf cubs?" Kurama suddenly asked in surprise.

 

"Nope, they're fish." The girl responded as she giggled. Yusuke tried to cough to cover up his laughs as Kuwabara and Kurama stared at her almost dumbfounded. The pups whining though made her look at the. She reached down and scratched their ears. "I was only kidding you two... it's called being sarcastic." The two pups nodded and she merely shook her head. "Go curl up on Rin." With a yip, they both took off into the house.

 

Yusuke looked at her in surprise. "They understand you?"

 

"I dunno, did they just do as I told them to?" Kagome asked back. "Are you going to help me now Yuyu, or should I do it on my own?"

 

The other three boys seemed highly amused about what she had called him, and he turned red in embarrassment. "Don't call me Yuyu, please Kag?"

 

"Don't call me Kag, I prefer Kagome now." Walking to her trunk, she pulled out her suitcases. There were five total. Three for her and one for each child. Shaking her head at the still embarrassed man she sighed. "Fine, I've got them." And with that, she closed the trunk and managed to pick up all five suitcases.

 

Kuwabara just looked at her. "You're strong enough to carry all those?"

 

Rolling her eyes at the 'baka' as she decided to call him, she turned an icy glare on him that would've made Sesshomaru proud. "I would hope that I am, as I have to carry far heavier then these light things. It's merely difficult to hold the items themselves, not the weight." And so she dropped the things in the entryway and returned to grab Yusuke. "You will need to show me where to put everything."

 

Shaking his head to clear his thoughts, he grinned at her. "Right." Grabbing two of the cases, he let her get the other three and led her upstairs to a room. "This one's yours. Shippo's is across the hall and..."

 

"Rin will sleep with me. She doesn't like being alone. If she's not in my room, then she'll stay with Shippo."

 

"Alright."

When they returned to the living room, they found an amusing sight. Shippo was grumbling about always getting petted and Rin refused to release her grip on his hair. Shaking her head at the two, she walked up and gently awoke the girl. Blurry brown eyes opened and took in their surroundings. Yawning, she caught sight of the young priestess. "Where are we mommy?"

 

Giggling at the stunned faces of Yusuke and his friends, she untangled the girl's fingers from her son's hair and picked her up. "We're at Yusuke's dear."

 

"Does that mean I can go to sleep now?" Rin asked as she yawned yet again.

 

"You were just asleep sweetie, don't you want dinner?"

 

"Can I have sweet snow?" That made the four guys look at the little girl. Only Hiei had ever called the treat that.

 

"Can we momma? I want some sweet snow too!"

 

Kagome just giggled at them and looked at her friend. "Do you have any ice cream?"

 

"Yeah, there's some in the freezer."

 

"Mind if these two have some?"

 

"Mind if I ask how you suddenly have another kid... and why they both call ice cream sweet snow?"

 

Kagome just shrugged. "We can talk about that tomorrow. For now I'm tired, and I need to get them their treats before we head to sleep." Setting the little girl down, she headed to the kitchen. "Anyone else want some ice cream?"

 

"Hn."

 

"I'll take that as a yes." She said as she giggled at him.

 

Yusuke rolled his eyes at her antics, but was curious how she could understand what the antisocial demon meant. "Make me a bowl too since you're offerin."
