Here's the second Chapter. I want to surprise a lot of people. When I was writing all this just popped into my head. I never thought of putting Kikyo as Kagome's mother, but hey I did. I do like Kikyo, this time I wanted to shift everything and make her Kagome's mother. Also I messed everything up with a few other characters in the later chapter's. I hope you like it.
Kagome watched with surprise as her emotionless friend was hit across the face, so hard that his head did a spin, and his little body slammed into the ground. But what worried her the most was that his head hit first with full impact before his body. She was so worried, as she ran to his side, and found him motionless. The man right behind her, as he hovered over her, she turned and found that he was glaring hard at her. Anger filled his eye's and she knew that he was about to hit her.
Just as he readied his hand for another hit, he was socked in the face by another person. He stumbled back a little until his eye's meet amber. There standing in a black and blue suit was the all mighty person he hated so. He stood straight well walking back to the silver haired man.
" Stay out of my business," with lethal in his voice.
Inuyasha shock his head, " Not when your about to hit my little girl," he readied his position, if his enemy was going to attack. He watched as the black haired man looked from him, to the boy that was motionless on the ground, by his daughter. He then returned his gaze, posturing himself.
" Don't think that this is over," and then he walked away, planning his revenge.
Inuyasha stood straight, as his wife walked out from behind him. He gazed at his little girl, she was an innocent, sweet, and brave. He loved her so, but what she did was idiotic. He then seen the boy on the ground and made his way towards him.
Kikyo bent down to the level of her daughter, she then seen the waters that exploded from her daughters blue eye's, as she ran into her arms and sobbed. Kikyo held her gently, and picking her up, as Inuyasha did the same.
" He is unconscious, I don't see anything other then a few scrapes but we better take him to the hospital to get him checked by a physician." They both nodded as they walked to the car, and straight to the hospital.
Kagome sat in the back sit, with her father and Hiei. It appeared as if he was sleeping, he looked so calm and content. He was breathing in and out, with signaled that he was alive. She smiled faintly knowing that for now he was safe.
As they made their way into the hospital, they went straight to the registration. Kikyo held her worried daughter, well Inuyasha was holding the boy named Hiei. Kikyo was surprised as to how she worried about a boy she hardly knew. She could tell that she was scared, by the fear in her eye's, she was surprised that even her innocent seen such gruesome happening to someone that was her friend. As they were lead to a room, she sat Kagome down by the boy that was laying down on the hospital bed.
She felt sympathy for the poor boy, he was so fragile at the moment. He was small for his age, paler, and it appeared he was abused. At that moment someone walked through the door.
There standing in a white hospital robe, with a tan blouse and a brown skirt was Kikyo's older sister, Kaede. She had brown short hair, with chocolate colored eye's. She was in her late twenties, she was wise for her age, and a loner. She never married, and said she never will. She walked closer to the bed and seen the boy lying in the bed, she turned her gaze to the three.
the original parent's.
" What happened to him," she asked as she went closer, seeing the black haired child bruised from his shoulder and down. Now that he had a hospital robe on, she nearly gasped when she seen the scare that was on his stomach. It was healed, but she knew that it must of happened recently.
Kagome started sobbing, " We were at Kagome's school, when we seen Naraku and this child. We also seen him beating the poor kid, then his head it the ground, and he fell unconscious." Inuyasha said, his eye's were staring at the poor child with pity.
Kaede did her examines, then she turned to the both adults. " He is alright physically, but he has emotional scares that are need of healing. He has a concussion, but is alright, I suggest that he stay in the hospital for the night." She walked away as she got the clipboard, and stared to make notes. " Do you know who he is," she asked staring at her sister.
They both nodded their heads, " His name is Hiei Onigumo," Kagome said as her head was lying at the crack of her mother's neck. " That's what Mrs. Kagura calls out every time she does student count, to see who is absent or who is attendant." She said softly well wiping into her mother's green sweater.
Kaede frowned, as she went back to her work. " So Naraku Onigumo is his parent, we can't do anything for him now. He has to rest, I'll call child services tomorrow and tell them about our situation." She looked down at the broken boy, " I'm not sure if they'll place him back with Naraku, or send him to another place."
Inuyasha didn't like the sound of that, but he knew he was in no position to argue. Kikyo felt her daughter tense, then pulled away to stare at her with wide eye's.
" Okasan does he have to go back to that cruel man," she asked hiccupping from her crying.
Kikyo didn't say anything, she couldn't because she didn't want that to happen, but she knew that there was no way they could help.
" I'm sorry baby, but there is nothing we can do." She found it hard to speak because she was almost crying herself from watching her daughter whimpering. She sighed, well giving her to her father, and went to speak with her sister. As they went into the hallway, " Are you sure there is nothing we can do," she asked hoping that her sister knew anything.
Kaede shook her head, " Nothing that I know, but maybe you can call Kanna, remember her and Souta are Lawyer's and one of the best in Japan. All I can say is try, " she hugged her sister knowing she needed the reassurance, and then went back to work.
Kagome whipped the hair that fell over his face, she felt so sorry for him, and at the same time scared. She wanted to take him home, where she knew he was going to be safe. She had to admit that it was weird how so affectionate she was with him. She traced her hand along the jaw one of his face. He was so fragile at the moment, and she could barely recognized him for being so innocent laying in the bed. She rested her head on her father's chest, well yawning.
" Go to sleep honey, you've had a rough day, I'll wake you before we leave," said the soft voice of her father. Her eye lids slowly closed, then she meet darkness. Inuyasha cradled her in his arms, as he rocked her back in forth remembering when she was younger, how he would do this, and then she would stop her crying, and fall fast a sleep. He missed it so, but he wouldn't change time, because he knew that she was growing, and was content with it.
Kikyo returned to the room, to find her daughter sleeping peacefully in her fathers arms. As he sat beside the bed, it was a cute picture, as if they were a whole family. She shoved that thought into the back of her head, wondering how she got that thought in the first place. She seen his eye's shift to her's and she seen the love in them, that still lingered from when they were younger. She smiled as she took her seat next to him, and turned to Hiei. She watched as his chest rose with every breath he took. She felt so sorry for him, she was sure that she was going to help, it was the only thing she could do. Knowing Naraku he would try to reclaim what is his.
She pondered on what she would ask when she called her older brother, and sister in law. She would ask the necessary things, she would get information on the boy from her brother in law, and she sure would make sure he was put in a place that would be safe, away from the disastrous Naraku.
It was time for them to leave, Inuyasha awoke Kagome telling her to say goodbye. She rubbed her eye's gently, then when her vision came too, she looked down at Hiei. She smiled a little, as her father brought her to the level of the bed, she kissed his cheek. " I'll come back, I promise," and pulled away. She could of sworn she seen a smile, but it faded so fast, she couldn't tell if it was real.
Kikyo sat his hand on top of his little cold hands, she choked back a sob and said with a comforting voice. " You'll be safe her for the mean time rest, you need it. I promise nothing will ever hurt you again." She bid him goodbye, and then all three left the hospital, with the feeling of remorse, and possibility regret.
He was surrounded in darkness, complete darkness, there was no light. He wondered around in the dark just floating, he wondered where he was. It was peaceful, and yet scaring at the same time. He was at a sense of loss, and everywhere he looked it was the same. But then he started to ponder if he was ever going to make it out of here.
Just then he felt something warm on his cheek, it was something he's never felt before. He then seen a little sparkle of light, it was as if it wanted something to spark it. Then he heard a soothing, warm, familiar voice. " I'll come back, I promise." It was so familiar but he wasn't able to remember.
Then he felt a hand on top of his, it was radiating comfort, something he's not well known with. " You'll be safe here, for the mean time rest, you need it. I promise nothing will ever hurt you again." He didn't understand at all, but that voice was what he wanted to hear more. He wanted more reassurance, he wanted the warmth of the hand that was lifting away from his cold hand, it wanted to wake and see who it was. But he was so tired, he needed the rest, he was going to rest, because that voice told him to, and because he knew that he was in better hands.
Inuyasha lied the dead sleep Kagome into her small twin bed, that was covered in blue and red patterns for the confiner. Her walls were bright red, with white drapes, red and blue was her favorite color, as anyone could see.
He watched as his baby slept knowing that she had a rough day, from everything that happened. He brushed the strained of black hair from her eye's, she was his everything, and he loved being a parent. Her smiles brighten his day, her hugs were wonderful, and when she called him father it was like he was floating on clouds. Kagome was a wonderful little girl, and he wouldn't ask for anyone else.
He thought of how hard it was for Kikyo to conceive, they tried everything. But then they went to the doctors, and they told her she wasn't able to have children naturally, that sadden then so. But they didn't give up. Kikyo started to take medication, after a year they gave up hope, they decided that they were going to go by surgical operation. He remembered how scared Kikyo was, they were set two weeks prior to the day they scheduled. But after weeks went by Kikyo was starting to feel sick, she would eat, she would throw up from anything, and she was having mad mood swings.
He laughed as he remembered the day they went in for surgery, it wasn't necessary after they found out she was already pregnant. They went home that day and made love that they hadn't shared for a while, from depression of not having a child. But they succeeded, and they were going to have their first, and last baby.
That day, over seven years later his little girl was growing, and there was no way he was able to stop her. Kikyo was lucky, because they weren't able to have anymore children. But they weren't sad, because they already had a child, and she was their light, and hope. Hope for more decedents of their line of family.
He walked out of her room, turning the light off, and walking into the kitchen. Listening to his wife on the phone with someone.
Kikyo called her brother, lucky it was only past eight at night. As she heard the ringing and the sound of a muffled voice on the line. She asked him a few questions about custody, guardianship, and abused. Her bother asked her why she wanted to know, she just said for personal reasons.
He explained that if a child was abused, and he didn't have anywhere to go, or family member's then they were put into foster care, until a family wanted to adopt them. He also explained that the guardian that possible did abuse the child, then there had to be evidence, and witnesses for when they entered court. He said that child abuse was so common these day's that even foster homes weren't good as they use to be. Because of so many children are being abandon, and shuffled from one place to another, it ruined there child hood.
" I think that this child, Hiei is an orphan, and that Naraku is just his guardian." She said with a sad voice. " I don't know what to do, want to help, but I don't know how."
Souta frowned, his sister always tried to help, even when she knew she couldn't, he sighed and told her the only thing that was possible. " Why don't you try to adopt him, that would be away to help, plus it seems Kagome is getting lonely being the only child."
Kikyo nearly dropped her phone, " Can I," she said trying to caught her words, " I can."
" Yes, but first you'll have to go to court, file abuse for the child, then after he loses his guardianship, you can process the paper's for adoption."
Kikyo nearly jumped for joy, she wanted him in the family, she wanted a son. Even more Kagome wanted the same, she turned around from excitement not even realizing her husband stood just a few feet a way from her, with a raised eye brow. She smiled, well mouthing the word adopt. He nearly fell on his butt, what was this women thinking.
Kikyo thanked her brother, then ran to Inuyasha as she wrapped her arms around his waist, and digging her face into his hard chest. " What do you think Inuyasha, a son, we could have a son."
Inuyasha frowned, " Are you sure this is the right thing," he asked as she gave him a glare, well pulling back a little.
" Yes, I mean at first I thought it was ballistic, but then it got me thinking why not. I mean we already have a daughter, our love for her is enough, but I have more love to give. I don't want him to think it's because we pity him, but because we want him to be part of our family. Especially Kagome, she will be estatic that she will have a brother, and it will be someone she already knows." She was excited, she wanted him in her life, she knew it was for the best, and she also knew that he would be safe, and have a normal life.
Inuyasha kissed her passionately letting her know that he was fine with her decision.
Hiei awoke to a dark room, it was pure white, the wall, the drapes, the door, and the bed. He held his head, from the enormous headache he had. He could tell that it was almost morning as the sun peaked over the horizon. He knew it was beautiful, but he still felt lonely.
He then turned as he watched a women with blue scrubs walking into the room. She gave him a smile, " I see your up little one, I'll get the doctor, she wants to talk to you." She then walked out of the room, just then another women walked in well giving him a smile that said everything was alright.
" Do you remember anything little one," she said as she checked his vitals. He said nothing, " Alright, some people brought you here after your little accident. They said they would be back when visiting hours started." She ruffled his head, " Take it easy, your safe now." She then walked out, leaving a confused Hiei.
