Morning broke, only to find that nobody was paying attention to it. It went on breaking anyway, in the ways that mornings tend to do. The travelers were once again at Kaede's hut in the village. It seemed as though every time something that didn't involve monsters had to happen, it happened near the well. Sango rushed quickly out of the hut, heading for the bushes. Kagome, Inu Yasha, and Miroku peered out of the door, surprised, since the taijiya was usually the hardiest of souls. Even when surrounded by hundreds of dead bodies, Sango showed anything less than a stomach of cast iron. But during breakfast, she had progressively grown greener and greener, until she'd finally bolted for the door. "Sango-chan?" Kagome said cautiously. Her query was answered by the sound of more dry heaves from the bushes. Everyone flinched at the sound. Keade joined them at the door, and peered at the pathetic sight of the demon hunter barfing. She held a waiting cup of water in her hands. "Is she normally ill like this?" Kaede asked, while the others gladly cowered behind her. "No, "Miroku said looking worried. "She's always been healthy, except for injuries. I've never once seen her so sick. "I have some calcium tablets with me, "Kagome offered, and to dig around in her backpack. "Feh. "Inu Yasha had pinched his sensitive nose shut. The smell of human digestive juices wasn't exactly pleasant, especially for someone who can smell them a mile away. "Inu Yasha, you know what's wrong with her don't you?" Kaede said swiveling her one eye to look at him. "I think I know, but you can confirm it. "Inu Yasha glared at Kaede. "It's her business, Keade-baba. I've known for a couple of weeks. Whether or not she knows or wants anyone else to know isn't up to me. "Kagome returned with the calcium only to find Sango returning from her unexpected trip to the bushes. Kagome pressed a few calcium tablets into the other woman's hand, and Sango gratefully accepted them. Kaede also handed her the cup of water. "Sango-san, we must have a talk, "Kaede said, and then glared at Miroku. "you too, houshi-sama. "Miroku suddenly paled. The old miko led the way to a place out of earshot of those inside the hut, and proceed to have a serious talk with the two teenagers. Kagome grabbed Inu Yasha's arm, and pulled him within whispering distance. "What's wrong with Sango? "She's pregnant, Kagome. "Wedding bells immediately clanged in Kagome's ears, but they were quickly drowned out by the sound of baby cries. "Oh. "she bit her lip uncertainly. "How did you know?" Inu Yasha snorted. "Considering the number of mornings she's woken up smelling like that stupid priest, it's obvious. That, and I didn't smell her *woman's* time this month. Dogs also can usually tell that sort of thing. "You can smell that sort of thing and you know when to expect, um, our times?" "Kagome, I pay *very* close attention to the cycles of the moon. "Kagome rubbed her toe into the dirt. "Then you. . um, know I missed my last week too. "Inu Yasha looked at Kagome, who suddenly turned very greenish, and clutched her stomach in pain. In an instant she was also running outside the hut to the bushes. "Shit, "Inu Yasha said, banging his fist against the wall of the hut, waking Shippo up. "I knew it. I freaking knew it. Shit shit shit!" "Mmmheh Inu Yasha?" the little fox said sleepily. "Nothing, "Inu Yasha answered. "Just the worst possible freaking thing that could happen. We should have never stopped at that hot spring that one time. . . "Unbeknownst to Inu Yasha, Shippo suddenly grinned a *very* smug grin.
