Mending a broken heart

Sesshomaru was running through his castle with his heart beating wildly as he searched for Kora. He finally found her locked in Inuyasha's arms in a passionate kiss.

"Kora!" He yelled causing Inuyasha and Kora to jump apart.

"Do ya mind ya bastard? Can't ya see I'm a little busy." Inuyasha growled.

"Shut up! I need Kora NOW! The pup is coming!"

"Well what are we waitin for then! Let's get goin already!" Inuyasha said pulling Kora behind him by the hand.

When they made it to the birthing room, they saw that Noriko was already there and was trying to comfort Kagome.

"Kagome, I'm here love." Sesshomaru said kneeling next to her taking her hand.

"Fuck! This shit hurts!" Kagome panted as she squeezed his hand.

"I know it does. It will be over soon." He said wiping the sweat from her face.

She glared at him. "How the fuck would you know you stupid dog! I'm the one who has to fucking push this kid out, not you!"

"Relax mate and calm down." When he said this, Noriko and Kora both looked at him like he was stupid and he knew that was the wrong thing to say.

"Relax? Relax! How the fuck am I supposed to relax! I'm having a kid here dammit!" She yelled before screaming in pain.

"Sesshomaru, you need to leave the room. It's almost time for her to deliver the pup." His mother said.

He snarled and his eyes bled red. "I will not leave my mate!"

"You must my lord! Men aren't allowed to be present when a woman is delivering." Kora said.

"NO!" He yelled.

Noriko sighed. "Inuyasha, you need to get him out of here. He won't be able to come back in because I'll place a barrier around the room." Inuyasha sighed. He knew this wasn't going to be fun and he just might get his ass kicked.

"Come on bro." Inuyasha said pulling his struggling brother out of the room.

"No! Let me go! My mate needs me!"

"No, what she needs is for you to calm the fuck down!" Inuyasha yelled as he finally got Sesshomaru out of the room.

Once Inuyasha had Sesshomaru out of the room, Noriko put up a barrier while Kora got blankets and warm water ready.

"Oh god this fucking hurts!" Kagome panted.

"I know Kagome, but soon the pain will be over and you'll have your little one in your arms." Noriko said.

Out in the hall Sesshomaru paced anxiously back and forth. Inuyasha was leaning against a wall with his arms crossed watching him in amusement. He'd never seen his brother so nervous and excited before.

"You do know that pacing back and forth ain't gonna make the pup come any sooner don't ya?" Inuyasha asked smirking.

Sesshomaru growled. "Be quiet! I'd like to see you sit still when you are waiting for your own pup to be born!" Inuyasha blushed at the thought of making said pup and shut up.

They had been waiting for about three hours when Noriko and Kora came out of the room smiling.

"You can go see her now." Noriko said. He jumped to his feet and ran into the room that held his mate and newborn pup.

When he entered the room, he approached the bed nervously. He'd never been so nervous. He wasn't even this nervous when he asked Kagome to be his mate. When he got closer to the bed he saw two squirming bundles in her arms.

She looked at him and smiled. "Come and meet your sons Sesshomaru."

When he saw them he smiled. "They're beautiful Kagome. We have two beautiful sons." He said running his finger down their cheeks.

One boy looked just like Sesshomaru, right down from his markings to his fluffy tail. When he looked at his other son, he gasped. He was the spitting image of Sesshomaru's father. He even had the same blue jagged markings.

"He looks like my father." He said sadly.

"That's what your mom said."

"What should we name them love?" He asked.

"Well, since he looks like you, let's call him Maru." She said looking at the boy who looked just like Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru smiled. "That's a wonderful name. What about this little one?" He said taking the pup that resembled his own father out of her arms.

"How about we name him Tai, in honor of your father?"

"I'd like that. Our little Maru and little Tai." He said giving each of his pups a kiss on the forehead. Just then there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Sesshomaru said.

"Hey. Can I see the pup now?" Inuyasha asked walking into the room.

"Actually Inuyasha, we have twins. We have two boys." Kagome said smiling.

"Can I...can I hold one?" He asked.

"Of coarse you can. You are their uncle after all." Kagome said handing him Maru. Inuyasha stared at the pup in wonder as he opened his golden eyes.

"Hey there little guy. I'm your uncle Inuyasha." He said smiling as the pup grabbed his pinky.

"What are their names?"

"His name is Maru and the one Sesshomaru is holding is Tai."

"Cool names. Can I hold Tai?"

"Sure." Sesshomaru said handing him Tai. When Inuyasha took Tai from Sesshomaru, he noticed that he had blue eyes like Kagome and he had different markings than either Sesshomaru or Maru.

"He doesn't really look like either one of you. Well he does have Kagome's eyes but that's about it."

"He looks a lot like father." Sesshomaru said.

"He does? It's too bad the old man ain't here." Inuyasha said sadly. He didn't know his father since he died on the day he was born.

"Yeah it is. I wish he could be here. I'd like to meet him and for my pups to know their grandfather." Kagome said.

In another room of the castle, a long forgotten jewel began to glow.

Sesshomaru, Kagome, and Inuyasha were all still fussing over the pups when they heard a commotion out in the hall.

"I'll go see what's goin on." Inuyasha said handing Tai back to Sesshomaru.

Inuyasha left the room to see what was going on. When he saw Noriko passed out in the arms of an unknown man, he began to growl.

"Who the fuck are you? What the hell did you do to her!" Inuyasha yelled drawing his sword.

The man smiled. "I see the sword works for you. It suits you. You look like a true warrior holding that sword."

Inuyasha growled. "Answer my fuckin question! What the hell did you do to her ya fuckin bastard!"

The man frowned. "Such language coming from the son of a lord. You should be ashamed of yourself pup."

"I ain't no pup! Now put her down so I can kick your ass!"

"What is going on out here?" Sesshomaru said coming out into the hallway.

"This stupid bastard did somethin to Noriko and he won't put her down!"

When Sesshomaru saw the man that was holding his mother, his eyes widened and he gasped.

"F-father!" He whispered in shock.
