"AHHHHHHHHH!"

A scream of pain reverberated throughout the tiny wooden hut. Outside InuYasha paced back and forth. His demon was going insane and in turn, driving him insane.

'Mate in pain. Help MATE!' Growled the inner InuYasha.

'I know this but they won't let me in, and quite frankly I'm scared to death of Sango.' Countered InuYasha.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! IT HURTS, IT HURTS SO MUCH!" screamed Kagome who was now 6 hours into labor.

Another female voice intervened, "C'mon, Kags one more push and it'll be all over. C'mon, push push push push!" commanded Sango.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"WAH WA WAHHH WAAAAAH!"

InuYasha waited for what seemed like hours before Sango came out.

"InuYa-"InuYasha flew past Sango into the hut. His mate was sitting up holding the newly born pup, wrapped in a blanket.

"Hi mate. I have someone I want you to meet." She looked down to the pup, "do you want to hold her?"

"Can I? Are you sure? I might drop her." Worried the hanyou.

"You won't. Besides I think she does deserve to meet her father."

Sensing the distress of her mate from the mate bond she had to reassure him.

"You'll be fine."

"I don't think I'll be a good father. If I'm not, then I failed as your mate and her father. What's her name anyways?" Questioned InuYasha.

"Izayoi, of course. Why would you even ask such a thing?" Said a dumbfounded mother

InuYasha looked down at his pup with wonder. She looked like her parents for sure. Black hair with a mix of silver. Gold eyes and adorable black streaked ears. She was perfect.

"Thank you Kagome. You gave me a daughter that I never thought I would never meet. You showed me how to trust and love again. I wouldn't change a damn thing. Welcome to the world Izayoi!" finished InuYasha.
