I do not own Inuyasha

Prologue

I believe that family is worth more than money or gold-Savage Garden-Afrimation


Izayoi stood on a hill, watching the building where she had been a few moments ago burn to the ground.

She looked at the baby in her arms, "I hope your chi chi ue made it out of the fire, little one, I don't think I can do this alone."

Inuyasha cooed and she her faced softened, "We'll be fine on our own."

And with the Fire Rat Robe tucked around them they made their way away from the burning wreckage.

Inutaishou held on to his left arm as he limped his way out of the burning wreckage, in his weakened state he found hard to move,

It was his will alone which kept him alive.

His will to see Izayoi again.

And to meet his son.

He collapsed on the grass outside of the house while it burned to the ground. 'I have to find Izayoi.'

Izayoi walked until she reached a cave, where she collapsed in pure exhaustion.

She leaned against the wall and regarded her son. "Well, Inuyasha," she said, "It looks like your oKaa-san is made of stern stuff, eh?"

The baby cooed again.

"Let's sleep for now, then tomorrow we'll find a place to live."

And with that She closed her eyes and fell asleep.

Inutaishou woke up at dawn, the sun shining in his eyes.

He'd fallen asleep on the grass after he fainted.

He was glad to see that his wounds were all healed.

'Izayoi, I will find you.'

He set of in search his mate.

There was a faint trace of her in the air, and he followed it to a cave where her scent was strongest.

But neither she nor Inuyasha was anywhere in sight.

'Where are you, Kiobito?'
