Six months after the Naraku incident, life was good for everyone. Well, mostly everyone. Naraku was sentenced to 100 years in prison, plenty of time to clear his head. His wife Jennifer was now running the business and doing it well. Akira was swollen with Manten's child, ready to pop at any time, and Yura and Hiten had a small winter wedding in the park. The ceremony was short, but the reception didn't end until the next morning. Ivonne and Hideki bought the brownstone from Akiya, so the hanyou now needed another summer house.
"Where is my daughter?" Ivonne huffed, asking her husband who was busy playing a game of Spades with Angie, Serena, and Matthew.
"I don't know." he said, shrugging his broad shoulders, continuing the game with the three children. He tried to bite back a growl as Serena won another book for her team.
"I'm bored." Matthew groaned, throwing his hand down on the floor they were sitting on. The fourteen-year old jumped from his seat and walked over to the window.
"I wanna go outside." he mumbled, looking down at two women sunbathing. The paler of the two was reading a magazine, wearing a wide, straw beach hat hiding her face from view, and a white string bikini. Her friend, Matthew guessed, was laying on her stomach, topless, with giant sunglasses and a scarf, pulling back choppy beige hair.
Making a sprint for the door, the family looked at each other confused, then went about their business.
"This is nice..." Gloria whispered, looking out toward the wide, clear, Hawaiian beach waters. For the upcoming wedding, Sesshomaru flew all the guests out to a Hawaiian island, and they were staying at a very expensive resort. .
"Sure is. That boy's not so bad, you know." Chloe said. Their cousin Grace, sitting with the sisters on the beach, nodded her head at the comment.
"You're only saying that 'cause he paid for everyone," Gloria shot back.
"Naw, naw, I really like him... and I really like you, too..." Chloe said, mumbling the last part toward a handsome young man walking past the trio of old women.
"What would your husband say? What about your grandchildren?" she shot back, glaring at her older sister. The 78 year old woman giggled at her 80 year old sister's antics. For those who didn't know the two's age, they would assume Gloria was older.
"He's dead! And my grand babies know I like to have a little fun!"
"Whatever..." Gloria mumbled, rolling her eyes.
"I think we should be going back inside." Chloe said, scratching her head under the Asian style straw hat she wore. "My wig's itchin' and I don't want these young boys to think I'm old." The trio began to walk away from the beach, and back to the hotel.
"Why would you wear an old wig under a hat and sit under the sun?" Gloria asked, following her older sister.
"Cause-cause. Aw, let's just go!" the woman yelled, flailing her fat arms in the air, not bothering to look back at the two women behind her.
Matthew slowly walked to the women he was watching from the suite window. They looked more gorgeous close up. Both had tall model builds and was basking in the sun.
"I see you two beautiful ladies are enjoying the sun." he said, showing off a brace-free smile. The paler of the two looked up from the magazine she was reading to acknowledge the teen. She turned to tap the woman next to her.
"He looks familiar." the woman with the scarf said, taking off her expensive sunglasses and looking up at Matthew with the same purple eyes the woman with the large hat had.
"Do I? I would've remembered meeting beautiful women such as yourselves." he said, hoping one or both of them would fall for the corny line.
"Matthew, have you forgotten us already?" the pale woman asked, showing off her fangs. Taking a look at the women again, they did look familiar... too familiar. It had finally struck him that he was flirting with his uncle Hideki's mother and sister! Both demonesses were old enough to be his great-grand mother. Even though they were not blood-related, it still felt awkward trying to flirt with them.
"Um-ahh! I-I gotta go and-and do stuff!" the boy shouted and made a dash back to the hotel.
"Well, that was odd." Iva mumbled to herself, going back to her nap. Sayuri chuckled at the young man's actions. She seemed to attract younger men, both human and youkai.
'In a few days I'll be Mrs. Akiya Imani Taishou.' Akiya thought to herself, staring at the wedding ring on her finger. Waiting another moment to marry the man of her dreams seemed almost unbearable at times. All the preparing for their dream wedding was over now, all that was left was the baby shower for Akira and the bachelor and bachelorette parties.
Things were definitely changing for everyone, Rin especially. Oddly enough, she was generating youki, which is impossible for a human.
"I'm worried." Akiya suddenly said, already smelling the scent of her mate drawing closer. Sitting next to the hanyou, Sesshomaru wrapped an arm around her waist, burying his nose into the crook of her neck.
"How could Rin have youki?" he asked himself, taking in his mate's scent.
"Aren't Rin's parents human?" she asked, turning her head to look up at the youkai holding her close.
"No. Rin's father, Jin, who was a dog hanyou, told me that Rin was conceived on his human night by accident.. But why is youki appearing now?" Looking at his mate for an answer, the woman shrugged her shoulders and pinched her button nose, trying to think back to her science classes at the Youkai Elite Academy. Cases of offspring of human/youkai or human/hanyou and hanyou/youkai producing offspring that are not a species cross of the two are rare. Her mother's case was a perfect example. That just must be like Rin in a way.
"I guess Rin was not actually conceived on Jin's human night as one might think. His demonic genes were passed down, but lay dormant. Maybe now they're appearing because she is coming of age. What might happen is she'll have hanyou strength and the long life span!" she said, getting more excited by the minute. Deep down, the couple worried about Rin eventually aging and dying, but since she was technically hanyou, that ended their worries.
"Oh." was all he could say. Akiya thought of a logical theory of the youki coming from the human looking pre-teen. "Rin." Sesshomaru bellowed, calling her to come from her room. The child, already 5'3, ran into the living room.
"Yes, Dad?" Rin asked, looking at the couple.
"Sit down, Rin." he said, gesturing for her to sit.
"What is it? I'm sorry I ordered those movies! It was an accident!" the pre-teen said, bowing her head in shame. Akiya and Sesshomaru exchanged strange looks, asking ' What movies?'. Forgetting about that, the couple went back to the issue at hand.
"Ummm...that's not it, Rin, What I want to talk to you about is your parents." Furrowing her brows she waited for her father to continue. "See, I can sense youki coming from you-."
"But I was conceived on father's human night."
"That's what we all thought, until Akiya came up with this theory..." Sesshomaru explained the theory and what would it would mean. Se seemed the take the news really well. Deep down, Rin knew she was changing a lot differently than the human children lately.
"Well, that explains a lot!" Rin said, breaking out a smile.
"What do you mean?" Akiya asked.
"Well, the trainer Dad hired... I was the one who broke her rib, but it was an accident!" Rin blushed at the shocked look on her future stepmother's face and the surprised look in her father's eyes. The human Sesshomaru hired had a rib broken by a child.
"Didn't she say she fell?" Akiya cutely asked, looking up at her mate.
"I guess you're going to get a new trainer now." he said, smiling at his daughter. Maybe he would have to train her himself, but that might be a little difficult, since he was training with Akiya. Their training gave him a challenge and her practice then usually led to sex on the training room floor of the mansion they recently moved into in Japan.
"So you're not mad?" Rin asked, furrowing her brows together.
"Of course not. Actually, I'm proud of you, and I know Jin and Yuka would be too."
"T-thanks, Dad... I gotta go and get Chi-Chi and Shinjo. They were going to get something for the baby shower."
"Okay." he said, watching the girl make a sprint out the door. Since everything settled down, the inuyoukai became a little more affectionate toward his family and close friends.
"Did I tell you that I love you today?" Akiya asked, wrapping her arms around her mate's neck, sliding herself onto his lap.
"No, but you can show me." he replied, seductively pulling his mate into a passionate kiss.
I can't believe I'm going to be a mommy!" Akira cooed, rubbing her protruding stomach with a warm smile on her face.
"I know." a voice said from behind. "Let me help you up." Manten said, lifting up his mate from the chair she was sitting on. The model smiled at her mate and gently kissed his cheek.
"Do you think it will be a boy or girl?"
"If it's a girl, I want her to be pretty just like you." the thunder youkai said, planting a kiss on his wife's forehead.
"And if it's a boy, I want him to be as talented as you." she said as the two walked- well Akira "wobbled" down to the banquet hall where the baby shower was held. The baby was due in one week and room service could not be any happier. The neko youkai called at all times of the night, ordering all types of crazy concoctions such as lobster tails with chocolate syrup instead of butter. If they thought that was bad, imagine how bad it was for her mate dealing with her already unnatural appetite and her pregnancy cravings for six months.
Cheers and shouts of congratulations rang through the dining hall. Baby pink and blue was the color theme for the event, from the balloons to the streamers. Most of the guests for the wedding were at the shower.
"Congratulations, you two!" Iva yelled, looping her arm around her daughter's. She led the couple through the crowd of guests straight to the gifts, but Akira's mind was focused on the food.
"This is from me!" Iva cooed, handing her only child a gift wrapped box. Before you open it, take a seat here."she continued, sitting her daughter and son-in-law to their seats. The pregnant woman sloppily tore off the gift wrapping and opened the box, revealing an old, white, baby blanket.
"My old blankie!" Akira shouted, hugging the blanket to her chest. After all those years she still kept that blanket and it was still in perfect condition.
"I love it, mommy!" stretching out her arms for a hug, holding her mother close.
"I knew you would."
"Ok now, my gift!" Inari said, pushing an expensive stroller to the couple with a big grin on her face. The black stroller had leather seating and spinner rims on the wheels. Looking at it again, everyone guessed it was Michael's idea for the rims. Now, the baby will be rolling on dubs wherever someone pushed it down the street.
"Oh, this is awesome! What are these, five inches?" Akira asked examining the stroller.
"Six!" Michael shouted, grinning like a small child. The rest of the day was filled with more gifts and the mother to be ate to her heart's content.
"Kira, you have some gifts from the girls and Shinjo!" Akiya said, smiling, as she escorted the trio to the soon-to-be parents.
"I got you this..." Chi-Chi mumbled, handing her cousin a gift bag.
"Arigato, Chi-Chi!" She looked inside the bag and pulled out a pair of baby shoes. The neko youkai's happy squeal rang out throughout the entire room, making anyone with animal ears fall flat to their head and everyone else cover their ears.
"I love it!" Akira shouted. Manten nodded in agreement.
"I got you this." Rin said, handing Manten a photo album, since Akira was still in awe of the baby shoes. There was a framed picture of the couple on their wedding day that Rin shot. The second photo was of Manten rubbing Akira's round stomach. Both had soft smiles on their faces.
"I don't remember taking this picture?" Manten said, looking at the gorgeous photo. For a child, Rin was a great photographer.
"I took it without you knowing." the child said, sheepishly blushing at the surprised look on the couple's face.
"Shinjo has a gift for you too!" Chi-Chi said, pushing the short ice youkai forward. Shyly, he handed the couple their gift. The door opened. A tall neko youkai with cold bronze eyes and black hair walked toward the couple. Every adult Nakamura's aura changed and their youkais flared in defense.
Iva froze as soon as that scent hit her nose, her blood ran cold. She hoped she would never see her ex-husband again. She almost jumped out of her own skin when she felt her brother and oldest nephew's hands grabbing her shoulders and stepping in front of her.
"I see no one has forgotten me." the stranger, said smirking to the group showing a single sharp fang from his smug mouth. Something about this person was wrong, his aura just wasn't right and everyone felt it.
