AN: Well let’s see. I got some fairly interesting reviews last chapter, which is always nice, plus I seem to be updating quickly again! It’s nice to know that I am once again loosing my social life so I can write this story. ^_^
I also got a fairly interesting email last night where someone stated that the theme song for this fic should be “I hate everything about you” by three days grace. I have to admit, the chorus could apply to some chapters, but I don’t know about the rest of the song... it seems a little unfitting for this story in my opinion. I don’t know-- I never really gave the idea of this story’s “theme song” much thought. ^_^
Okay, so, I am quite happy to say that, unless the universe is somehow cosmically altered in the next few days, the next chapter should almost definitely contain lemon. I’m not sure what sort of lemon but there will definitely be lemon.
Reviews:
-foxykittykat - Lol, I had a feeling people would like that. ^_^
-rebellion2fate - Yeah, I kinda like the “kiko” sound. Except that it sometimes reminds me of Kikyo. That puts me in a really bad mood. ^_^ I’m glad you understand where I’m coming from with this. I’ve seen way too many fics where Inuyasha and Sesshomaru mate and suddenly Inuyasha is really submissive and Sesshomaru is... somebody else entirely. It annoys me. Of course, Inuyasha is going to have a slight change in personality in the upcoming chapters-- but it all has to do with the pregnancy, since dogs have lots of different traits for pregnancy that humans don’t have. It’ll be interesting combining the two (though I’ll probably stick close to a dogs). And, naturally, Sesshomaru’s already changing a little-- becoming more open and more protective. I just hope I don’t overdo that...
-Deity - That makes two of us! I never cease to amaze (or at least, shock or terrify into speechlessness) myself either. I’m glad you liked the chapter-- like I said, it’s a funny idea, and a strange idea (who the hell would have the audacity or the courage to slap Sesshomaru? Other than Takehiko and Inuyasha that is ^_^) and I like playing around with things like that. Plus, it makes the story that much more entertaining. ^_^
-lilypad - All of them... in one... sitting? O_O wow, you must have been glued in front of the computer for a couple hours (either that, or your a speed-reader)... Cool! It’s nice to know my stories that captivating! Yeah, the dynamics of the birth should be interesting to say the least, but you never know, I may have a few surprises up my sleeve in that area yet! ^_^
-Tryst - Hm. Judging by the reaction to the last chapter, I should have Sesshomaru knocked around the head more often. ^_^ Lol, anyway, you have a challenge eh? And no one thinks they can write it... Alright, you’ve caught my interest. I’ll take a look at it... *goes and looks at challenge*... Hm. Well its original to say the least! ^_^ You know, I may very well write this fic! It’s got that strange sort of edge that I like to have in my stories. However, you realise that by asking me to write this challenge, you are totally putting the story at the mercy of my completely sadistic and twisted mind? Not even I can promise what will come of it, so you better set up any other guidelines you might want for the story, or else I can already picture some of the evil things that may come out of it. Specifics are required, or else I go haywire and the results can be disasterous. If it still sounds okay for me to write this fic, then you should know that I may not post the first chapter (or any chapters following) for a while. I try not to get into Multi-chapter fics when I’m already writing one because they can sometimes distract focus from one another and make things confusing, but who knows, I may manage it yet! ^_^ Anyway, let me know, and remember-- I did warn you! Any rules or details you leave out, (and even some you leave in, as we can see with this story) will automatically be taken by my mind and turned into the most far-out sadistic thing they possibly can be!
-Hanyou Slave - That is a good idea, but it can be difficult. I can hardly have Inuyasha think ‘Well you know, despite what Sesshomaru thinks and all we’ve been through, I’m still the same old hot-headed moron I was before!’ Or something like that. And not everyone would get it if I did that anyway. I try to avoid with the paragraphs, but sometimes it’s necessary. And don’t worry-- I seriously doubt I’ll get bored of this story before I finish it. I actually don’t think it’s necessarily boredom, just reluctance to end fics when I enjoy writing them so much. Actually, that sounds too deep for me-- It is boredom after all!
-ArchNemesis - I’m sorry to hear you’re sick. What d’you have? Illnesses can be rather annoying when you’re trying to keep up with stories on the computer! Well I hope you feel better soon! It always sucks to be sick. Hm. That just gave me an idea... But I guess you guys’ll have to wait, cause there’s no way I can use it next chapter... I’ll have to save it for the following chapter. Well, anyway, you asked me why Inu Taisho said ‘this does present a problem’ and I have to say that he didn’t say that, Takehiko did, and then she kind of explained why beneath that, Basically because they already know that this demon is very smart, and that he’s a hanyou (so defence against him would be difficult) and being a spider makes it all the worse since spiders are even more cunning than most other demons. At least, it seems that way when it comes to coming up with devious evil sadistic plots in the anime. ^_^ -- And Inuyasha isn’t suffering from any major effects from the rape like depression or anything, but there are some minor things (like when Yuko came in). There may be more of Yuko in the future chapters (mostly because everyone seems to like her so damn much!) but I don’t know when-- it’s hard to squeeze her in since servants aren’t usually supposed to be seen and stuff. Okay, now to your next review ^_^
Ladygizarme-Now wait just one darn minute! Who said it was a SessInu preg? We haven’t determined who the father is yet! Just for that, I should make them Naraku’s pups! -- Lol, just kidding! Sorry, I have a really hard time when it comes to being serious and messing with people’s heads. ^_^ Okay, so to your next little comment-- EXACTLY! This is not some corny romance fairytale for hells sake! It’s an angsty, rape, Mpreg, yaoi anime FF! And Inuyasha and Sesshomaru have such strong wills-- do you really think mating is gonna change them that much? Pregnancy will definitely effect Inuyasha I imagine, but I mean come on! Nope, not happening, not in this fic, sorry! Yeesh-- I’m arguing with the people who agree with me!
You’re right, Inuyasha was feeling odd, but, for all we know, that could have been an after-effect of the mating. After all, he’s only hanyou, and he has been properly mated and marked by a full blooded demon-- on as strong as Sesshomaru... you never know how that might effect him. Or maybe Naraku pulled something... Oh shit! I’ve got to get Naraku in the story somewhere soon too! >_< Bleagh! I guess I need to stop rambling and go work on another chapter... (and you’re right, Inuko is a made up name. One of my friends suggested it to me and I really liked it, so I put it up. Besides, what person would name their kid Dog-child anyway?) And thanks for the help with “Ko”. I probably would have used “Inuko” for a boy anyway-- it just doesn’t seem like a girls name to me at all.
-sikalimppu - Hm. I don’t actually know. I didn’t come up with the name-- You’ll have to ask Ur-GaY-LoVeR or their cousin, cause I have no idea. I have actually come up with a name before (not one that’s in this or any of my other fics) but for all I know somebody else is already named the same thing. I really can’t say all that much on the matter.
-Crazy Fangirl 0098 Sesshy - ^_^ I had a feeling people would like that!
-HoshiinoTenshi - W-ell, the chapters may not be as long, but I am updating quicker now, so that’s the plus side I guess! I’m glad I didn’t forget you, btw-- I can never remember what I say to people later, and I’ll see this review and I’ll just be like “oh shit, did I respond to them?” Usually I have though, so it’s nothing to worry about, but still...

Fraternal
For nearly a full hour Rin talked, relaying her life to Inuyasha, who listened calmly and quietly (though that seemed to be mostly an after-effect of the drug Takehiko had given him-- it had given him a fairly subdued sort of personality for the most part).
Near the very end of her tale (just after she had explained why she and Kagura had come here) the human looked up to find Inuyasha fast asleep, his body sagging heavily against the wall of the pillows that he was leaning against.
Rin smiled fondly as she stared at him, though her expression soon turned sad as she took in how peaceful and innocent the hanyou looked right then. She had nearly destroyed that.
‘I’m sorry.’ She said softly, lying down next to him and resting her head on his chest, her hand covering his own on his stomach as the thought ‘He would have made a good mate.’ ran unbidden but not unwelcome through her mind. ‘I never meant to hurt you.’
As if in answer, the body beneath her shifted slightly and Inuyasha let out a small snuffling groan.
Rin smiled again, biting her lip to hide a giggle, and then froze as she felt something shift beneath her palm.
She lifted her head and looked down at her hand-- still resting overtop of Inuyasha’s. It was faint, but she was almost certain she could feel something wiggling under their hands.
Carefully she moved Inuyasha’s had to the side (pausing when he groaned again-- seemingly in mild protest) and then, pushing his yukata open slightly, she pressed her palm flat against his stomach and held still.
In response, the skin beneath it began shifting about rather erratically.
Enthralled, Rin quickly shoved the yukata (along with all qualms and rules of modesty) even further open (nearly baring his body completely to her) and pressed her ear against him, listening intently.
That was how Sesshomaru found them when he came in a moment later-- Inuyasha, seemingly unconscious and spread out on the bed, supported by some pillows, his yukata falling dangerously open, with Rin hunched over next to him, her ear pressed to his lower abdomen.
The fact that the ningen girl was still fully dressed was just about the only thing that kept him from tearing into her right then and there.
Instead he stood, rooted to the spot, until Rin lifted her head to brush her hair behind her ears and caught sight of him.
‘Lord Sesshomaru!’ She said brightly as he took a couple steps toward them, her face flushed and her eyes wide, but with excitement not the fear or embarrassment that should have been present. ‘Come here quick-- you can feel the pups moving!’ She said, and, without a moments hesitation (or seemingly thought for her well-being) she reached over the short distance than now separated them and grabbed onto his wrist, pulling him over and down next to Inuyasha.
He was about the shred the girl, when she swiftly grabbed hold of the back of his head and, using a strength he had not thought she possessed, pushed his ears down onto Inuyasha’s belly with more audacity that move youkai had, saying ‘Listen!’
Sesshomaru’s internal growl of rage was cut short when he felt movement against his cheek, and heard the soft rumbling noises (that were so quiet he doubted Rin, with her weak human “hearing”, had even slightly detected) reached his ears.
Sesshomaru instantly froze up, his rage ebbing away as he listened to the movements in his brother’s body.
Rin watched him, grinning like a Cheshire cat the whole time, and finally letting out a small giggle at the expression of wonderment that had settled on Sesshomaru’s face as he slowly brought a clawed hand up to press against his brother’s stomach as well.
Unfortunately, that sound and those small touches were enough to cause Inuyasha’s ears to flick back and his eyes to crack open, blinking around in sleepy confusion as they came to rest on the back of his brother’s head, wondering why the hell Sesshomaru was using him as a pillow, before swivelling up to find Rin, who grinned widely at him.
‘Do you feel them?’ She asked Sesshomaru, acting as though Inuyasha had not woken up at all, and suddenly everything clicked into place in the hanyou’s mind.
‘Is that why he’s feeling up my stomach?’ He asked, clearly startling Sesshomaru, though the youkai hid it quite well-- only a small too-fast jerk away from his little brother’s body giving him away -- before sitting up in a much more dignified and Sesshomaru-like manner.
‘You’re awake I see.’ Sesshomaru said quietly to his brother.
‘Well’ Inuyasha said in a mock-annoyed voice. ‘I would’ve slept longer if someone hadn’t decided to start groping my stomach in my sleep.’ He said, and Sesshomaru’s face darkened slightly.
‘I’m afraid that was my fault, Inuyasha.’ Rin said ‘You see, I wanted Lord Sesshomaru to feel the pups-- they were wiggling around something awful before you woke up.’
‘You’re certain that wasn’t just my gut?-- I’m hungry as all hell.’ Inuyasha muttered as he frowned thoughtfully at his stomach. After a moment the frown deepened, and he shook his head. ‘Well, they’re not moving now.’ He said, wiggling around a bit in an effort to sit up properly, slapping Sesshomaru’s hand away when he would have helped and glaring.
‘Dammit, Sesshomaru, I’m not completely helpless! I can do some things on my own!’
Sesshomaru, not in the mood to have another fight with his mate, ignored him, and went about organizing the pillows behind his mate’s head and adjusting the furs and sheets around his body, pulling his yukata closed again.
Inuyasha huffed in agitation, and Rin smiled, trying to hold back as laugh at the hanyou’s obvious exasperation from his brother’s actions.
Sesshomaru suddenly turned his attention to her, his expression cold.
Inuyasha was instantly tense, eyeing his brother warningly (though it had little effect since Sesshomaru was looking the other way) as the smile drained from Rin’s face.
Shaking his head in frustration, Inuyasha said ‘Rin, I think now would be a good time to go.’
Rin glanced at him, then nodded quickly. ‘I have some things I should get done anyway...’ She said, rising from the futon and quickly exiting the room while Inuyasha turned agitated eyes upon his brother.
‘Gods, Sesshomaru, could you at least try to be civil toward the girl? I mean, she fucking betrayed me and I forgave her-- why the hell are you being so hard on her?’ Inuyasha demanded, and Sesshomaru turned cold eyes upon his brother.
‘Because she hurt you, Inuyasha.’ He said, his tone as cold as smoke off ice. ‘She used and hurt my mate, and for that I can never forgive her-- even if you find it so easy to do so yourself.’
Inuyasha stared at his brother, taken aback by his deep words, before looking away, his hands moving to fidget with the hem of the sheet.
After a moment’s silence, he dared to speak again.
‘You know, she really didn’t see a choice.’ He said, his voice low and slightly apologetic toward him brother while trying at the same time to offer Sesshomaru an explanation for the girl’s actions. He saw disbelief flicker into Sesshomaru’s gaze and frowned slightly. ‘She truly thought that Naraku would kill her and her sister if they did not obey-- she was only trying to protect Kagura.’ Inuyasha said, though Sesshomaru had heard this all before, but the hanyou had a point to make and he was not going to stop until he made it loud and clear to his brother. ‘It is the same way that you now try and protect me.’
Sesshomaru’s eyes narrowed.
‘They are two entirely different situations.’ He said, a hint of indignant anger entering his voice. ‘They are hardly the same--’
‘But they are, Sesshomaru!” Inuyasha said, swiftly cutting him off, staring at his mate intently, something stirring just beneath the surface of his golden eyes.
‘It is the same, Sesshomaru.’ He said again, relaxing his tone now that his brother was silent and he didn’t think he’d have to battle with him to be heard. ‘Just because we are mates and they are not makes no difference.’ He said ‘They still love each other, Sesshomaru, but in a completely different and Fraternal way-- a way that you and I never experienced-- for various reasons.’ He added the last part hastily, though Sesshomaru still stiffened from the words and the truth behind them. ‘She was just trying to save her sister.’ Inuyasha went on to explain, his voice dipping incredibly low and getting softer with each word. ‘And if I were in her position... I likely would have done the same.’
Sesshomaru sighed and looked around the room in a resigned sort of way. ‘I’m never going to win this argument am I?’ He asked quietly, and Inuyasha smiled before leaning up, wrapping his arms around his mate’s neck and kissing him, falling back onto the futon and pillows so that he could drag Sesshomaru down on top of him.
For a moment Sesshomaru returned the kiss before reluctantly pulling away, earning a disapproving groan from the hanyou beneath him.
For a moment Sesshomaru just stared down at his brother, who gazed in a half-annoyed, half-curious way back at him, and Sesshomaru could see the lust and want in his mate’s eyes, smell it in his growing arousal, and that only made his next words that much more difficult to say and that much harder for his body to cope with.
‘Inuyasha are you... certain about this?’ He asked, and Inuyasha blinked, his eyes narrowing slightly in consideration, before offering him an half-hearted snort. ‘Don’t worry, I’m sure the pups won’t give a fuck what we do.’ He said, completely misplacing Sesshomaru’s concern, and the youkais stared down at him a moment (hearing the nervousness in his mate’s voice no matter how he tried to hide it) and then frowned.
‘I am not concerned about the pups, Inuyasha.’ He said, his eyes smouldering pools of melted ice as he gazed down at the hanyou, who stared nervously back at him a moment, thinking, before nodding his head.
‘I know.’ He said, his voice a near whisper, quavering slightly in his growing tint of fear, but sounding entirely sure of itself. ‘It’s the only way I’ll ever get rid of him.’ He said softly by way of explanation, and Sesshomaru stared into his eyes a moment, searching for an unknown something before, seemingly finding it, nodding his head and then leaning down onto his mate to steal another kiss from him.

AN: Lots of names to choose from here people, so don’t be afraid! ^_^
Also, I think that next chapter or, at the latest, the chapter after that, I will be removing all names without votes, so if you see one on here that you like (or think is fitting) then please, get your vote in for it now-- cause these things aren’t staying on here forever! After that, I’ll probably start removing reviews with only one vote and then reviews with only two etc (but that won’t be for a while yet, so there’s no need to panic).
Remember-- the votes don’t necessarily have anything to do with my final deciscion. They’re just giving me the ideas of which names everyone else would like the best so that you reviewers can have some say in this story as well.
So far though, I have to agree with most of the votes-- My fav’s are mostly the ones the reviewers have picked. However, if I were to base my desicion on votes, Tsukiko and Inuko and Moriko and Hikaru are the top four male and female names (two each). It’s just something to keep in mind.
