Mama Kaede was one of the best mothers of this century, she raised six kids, cleaned, cooked, was in each schools PTA, had a regular job as a social worker, wrote four novels, and still had time for movie night on Sundays.

It all started with Mama was a kid about our age when we first came to her home, her best friend was killed by her abusive father, she was the one that found the body. Ever since then she was determined to make a difference in the lives of children who didn't have loving homes. Her parents, my grandparents, supported her to the end, never once disappointed in her.

When she got her child psychology degree she became a social worker, but of a different kind. She actually felt sympathy towards the children she helped, even if some were abused and others were just orphans she gave each a sort of hope, that's where Inuyasha and Sesshomaru came in.

Inuyasha was four and Sesshomaru was seven. Half brothers one full demon one a hanyou. Sesshomarus mother died three years ago, so he and his father traveled till his father met Inuyasha's mother a human. Along came Inuyasha and even though Sesshomaru acts like he hates him he would protect his little brother to the end.

Mama Kaede went to the hospital for one case and stopped when she saw their room and looked in, then were both covered in burns and their hair nearly gone but she stayed and talked to them. She learned that their house had been lit on fire by a demon haters group and they were the only ones who survived. She asked if they'd like to come live with her, they agreed seeing as how they had no where else to go. And that started Mama Kaedes group of children.

Next came Sango, the second oldest of all the children, yet at first she seemed the youngest. She witnessed her older brother by ten years kill her parents in a drunken rage then kill himself while she hid in the closet. Inuyasha said she wouldn't talk for months until one point at dinner she asked for the rolls.

Mama Kaede was on her case and she fell in love with Sango, and Sango being only 6 at the time just wanted to be held while she cried at night. So she was adopted and that made three youngsters in the house.

A year went by and now the ages are 5 7 and 8 in comes Miroku. His father beat his mother, the drugs drove him insane and his drug boss killed him later that night. Miroku played it off like he didn't care, being 8 and witnessing his mother being beaten to death made him seem a little crazy at first, but then everyone just realized he's just plain perverted.

Then I came in, at the same age as Inuyasha I had been raped and beaten by my father, who waited till I was old enough to tell me that he was doing this because my mother was a whore who ran away and left me, this was my punishment for being born. The authorities found out through one of my teachers and they figured that taking me to Mama Kaede would be the best thing to do. For one year I refused to sleep by myself, I couldn't have the window curtains open, I couldn't have the door open, I was paranoid at every little sound, at 6 years old they diagnosed me with paranoia and I started going to therapy sessions.

Two years later, the ages are now 8, 10, and 11 in comes Rin, the youngest and the funniest. She was 7 when she came to us, she saw her parents being murdered by wolf demons who just wanted a quick snack and ran away, they nearly caught up with her but she stumbled into our backyard and Sesshomaru saved her. Mama Kaede said it was fate and took the girl in without a second thought. She was like Sango and wouldn't talk for the longest time, except to Sesshomaru who she followed around like a faithful servant.

We were happy in that house, we all finally found a place to belong. Now 17 years after she took me into her open loving arms, we're burying our beloved Mama Kaede, Rin's sobbing in my arms, Sango's crying silently and the boys are all standing around us like trying to block us from the sorrow. I may of lost my mother, the only mother I ever knew, but I still had my family.

A/N: There ya go brand new story i promised, i'm not exactly sure how this is going to go but i just thought of it last night.
