Chap 25
Day 31 continued
Akio arrived at the beaver camp after a delightful ride on A-Uh. As he dismounted the dragon he scratched its heads and allowed it to nuzzle him. Laughing at first and then catching his breath he told the dragons that he had children of his own and would love to introduce them to his kids. A-Uh nodded both heads in agreement. They still missed their old mistress.
Akio walked out of the forest where A-Uh had landed to the camp site of the beavers. Ryota saw him from a far and came running up to greet him. After a strong handshake between the men which truthfully bordered on a sumo challenge, Akio shared the events of today’s meeting and Lord Sesshomaru’s instruction to ask the old timer and any other elders if they can remember any bewitching females from 50 years ago.
“Hold on Akio. I’m sure you can get Pops to spill some stories. But let’s round up the others first. Beaver demons are good story tellers and even the young ones may know stories their elders told them. This could take a while.”
The beavers had set up a temporary camp and were accompanied by some of Sesshomaru’s men to protect them. Several had dove back into the river to retrieve pots and pans and other cooking tools. Anything that was heavy had stayed in the area. The other material belongs had flowed down stream and had been found caught up in the rocks, a bit beaten up and worse for the wear. Fortunately no beaver demons had been killed and the majority of the injuries were minor. The worst injury was a broken leg. The teenage boy with the broken leg was successfully working it to get some sympathy from several teenage girls. Ryota found Pops watching the entertaining teenagers.
“You know Son. You could probably take some tips from that kid. Both of those girls are tripping over themselves trying to please him. He’ll probably get caught by one of them. His parents will have grandkits before I will.” Pops sighed heavily.
“Pops! Really?” Ryota rolled his eyes. “Maybe I don’t want to get married. What would you say to that?”
“I’d say that ‘sumthin’s wrong with you, boy.”
Akio threw his head back and laughed.
The two beavers stared at him.
“Just sounded like the conversation my dad and I had a year before I met the love of my life.” Akio smiled. “Don’t rush it Pops,” he said to the elder. Then turning to Ryota, he whispered, “My sister-in-law and my brother-in-law are still single. Both are strong, healthy, and good looking! Want an introduction?”
Ryota leaned his head back and threw up his arms. “Kami, save me. I’m surrounded by idiots.”
Pops and Akio started laughing. The hilarity quickly progressed to loud guffaws and both men squinted their eyes and began slapping their knees. They were completely speechless within seconds. The merriment attracted the attention of the other beaver s and soon the crowd was assembled.
Pops cleared his eyes and regained his composure. Looking at Akio he smiled. “The only other demons able to laugh like beavers are otters. The key difference to us is the amount of work we get done. See son, us beavers, we work hard and play hard. Those silly otters just play all the time. But I have to give it to ‘em, they have “play” down to an art! Let’s tell some stories folks. This here youngun was sent from Lord Sesshomaru’s place to find out what happened around here 50 sum years ago. Let’s start with you, sweet cheeks.”
The female beaver he pointed to blushed. She nodded at Akio and began her tale.

As they walked to the library Sesshomaru reflected. Earlier that day when he waited for Inuyasha to awaken from their nap in the first floor study he had split his time thinking about the future and looking at Inuyasha, specifically the location where they had seen the white rose. They were expanding their family. He needed to make sure he took care of them. He had enjoyed healing Inuyasha from the barb. ‘Yeah, that was gratifying in many ways’, he smiled deviously. ‘Tenseiga has taught me so much. And Ougai’s book is simply fascinating. I should become a physician! I wonder how do I do learn medical skills?’
The library was empty of people when the brothers entered. Sesshomaru opened Ougai’s book and showed Inuyasha a picture of a cloaca. The book told its readers that the healer would be able to reassure their patients using the drawing. It explained that the fetus would implant on the wall of the uterus and it would be stable and safe for the parents to continual their coital activities.
Inuyasha’s anxiety has already decreased considerably upon hearing that their daughter was safe and secure in his womb but he was curious about “coital activities”. The brothers stood hovering over the Ougai book when Nana and Jinenji came back in the library.
“Excuse us my Lords. I forgot my handkerchief,” Nana sighed. “We got all the way home and had to come back for this silly handkerchief.” Nana waved a clean white cloth for the inus to see. Resting it on the table she folded it neatly into a small square and placed it in her kimono pocket. Jinenji and Nana turned to leave.
“Nana, Jinenji, before you go, I’d like to ask you some questions.” Inuyasha reached out to stop the duo.
“Certainly dear. What do you need to know?” Nana sat at the table next to the inus.
“Nana, is it safe for us to do it now that I’m pregnant? Inuyasha worried his bottom lip as he waited for her answer.
“Yes dear. It’s safe and it’s healthy. The fetus gets some of the father’s ki that way.”
Inuyasha slumped down in the chair next to hers, relief obvious on his face. Sesshomaru’s face was not as easy to read but Nana knew he was ok too. She’d worked with too many tsundere fathers in her career.
Inuyasha pointed to the diagram in Ougai’s book. “I was worried that the baby was in my colon, but Sesshomaru showed me this picture.”
Nana leaned over to see what the mates were looking at. “That’s a good drawing. It varies in position from individual to individual but that’s typically where the uterus is. Cat and Dog demons often have a Y-shaped uterus. Not sure about half dog demons but we’ll be seeing soon enough.”
“What do you mean, Nana?”
“Well, when did you conceive?”
Inuyasha stared at Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru cleared his voice. “Approximately 30 days ago.”
“Very good. You have five more months to go. You can’t get too large so you need to watch your diet. Good nutrition is the best thing for you both. When the time comes you will deliver anally. That’s how cloaca’s are. They are joint passages for feces and reproduction. Odd, though, generally the uterine opening is closed off in the males.” Nana rubbed her chin, a few gray hairs noticeable on her wrinkled old face.
Inuyasha and Sesshomaru kept their silence.
“I suppose your raphe is prominent?”
Inuyasha’s eyes opened wide.
“It serves as a “cut here line”. Very handy if you need to have a bigger opening. But you won’t need that. You’ll be eating properly so she won’t get too big.” Nana rattled on, missing the frightened look on her patients.
Inuyasha had paled dramatically.
Sesshomaru had grabbed his mate’s hand and had squeezed it to reassure them both.
Both men looked shocked.
Nana looked up just then. Seeing their frightened faces she offered reassurance. “Now, now, my Lords. It’ll be just fine. I find if my patients know what to expect they won’t be as afraid of the unknown. Perhaps we should talk more later this week. As for now, resume your coital activities.”
“Coital activities?” Inuyasha asked.
“Sex, dear. Enjoy yourselves. It’s good for you both and her too.”
By this time Inuyasha was red to the tip of his ears. Sesshomaru was thoughtful. ‘I spent all month in the library researching what she told me in ten minutes. I think I need to find a preceptor. There are just some things you can’t learn from a book.’

When Captain Kenichi made his afternoon rounds he found the weapon’s maker slumped over his work table and no arrows in sight.
“Hey! Chief! No sleeping on the job! What’s the report on those arrows?”
But the man didn’t move. Kenichi went to his side and shook his shoulder but as he did he noticed a sticky substance running down his back. He removed his hand and saw it was covered in dark red blood. He checked the chief for breathing and after being reassured that he was still alive he yelled for help. Three soldiers rushed into the work area.
“You,” he pointed to the one on the right. “Go get the healer, now. It’s an emergency.”
“You,” he pointed to the one in the center. “Go tell the other soldiers to double the security. Be on a look out for anyone exhibiting unusual behaviors. There’s an imposter on the castle grounds.”
As the first two ran off, Kenichi realized he had not verified their identity. Growling at himself for his mistake, Kenichi decided to come up with a verification process now. Kenichi looked up and down the remaining soldier. “Identify yourself, Soldier.”
The soldier rambled off his parents’ names, his date of birth, and his location of his cot in the barracks. Content that he was who he said he was Captain Kenichi instructed the soldier to guard the weapon’s chief until help arrived. Captain Kenichi needed to talk to the Lords!
