Chapter 6

(Kikyo POV)

"So Kageromaru? What did you find out?"

"This Inuyasha is nothing but a half-demon born of the human woman you killed and the great dog demon of the west. There is rumor that when his life is in danger and he does not have the sword in his possession, his demon side takes over and he knows nothing but anger and how to kill. He will not recognize who is friend or foe."

I look up, "So, we can use that and not even get our hands dirty. That's useful information."

Naraku gives me a look to silence me, "Go on."

"He has deep feelings for the baby half breed and the mortal girl. Along with a good friendship with a demon slayer and monk. Should be easy enough to kill. What would you like me to do?"

Naraku smiles evilly, "Find a way to get Inuyasha's demon side to take over around the others."

(Inuyasha POV)

"But, Inuyasha! I'm booored!"

"What do you want me to do Kagome? You're in a wheel chair! There's not much I can do without hurting you!"

"I'm getting out of it this afternoon, I'm completely healed; what are you talking about?" The months have passed without any sign of Naraku; with his scent completely gone, there's no way I can track him. I growl at the thought of him still being out there.

"Well, until then you're staying put and that's that!" She pouts and I look away to make sure I don't give in. "Keh, as if something so stupid would work on me." Sakura runs over and jumps onto my shoulder.

"What are we doing for my birthday Yasha?"

"Birthday?"

"Yeah I turn four next week! I'm gonna be a big girl soon!"

"Oh, is that so? Well then, what would you like to do?"

"I want to go to chucky cheese with Shippo!"

"Maybe, we'll have to see about that." She jumps down when she sees Shippo coming up to the door. I look back down at Kagome to see her still pouting. This has been the slowest months for her; she hasn't been able to do a single thing without something being in danger of being hurt worse. "Alright how about we go now, see if we can get them off early. Then we can do whatever you want. Sound fair?"

She perks up right away and nods her head, "Yeah, oh thank you so much Inuyasha!"

I roll her out to the red pickup truck she got from her friend. Kagome's mom was home, so she'd be able to watch the kids for a bit. "Hey, Ms. Higurashi! I'm going to drive her up to the hospital now, alright? Can you watch the kids for a bit?"

"Sure Inuyasha! Take good care of Kagome!" I pick her up and place her in the passenger side and close the door behind her. I fold the wheel chair and place it in the back before getting in the driver side and pull out of the drive way.

"So, what do you want to do after you get these things off?"

"I want to go up that tree again; the view was amazing the last time. You also said you'd teach me how to fight, that would be a great way to gain my strength back too."

"Sure, I don't see why not." It wouldn't hurt to know she can defend herself a little in case I'm not around to protect her. It's going to be an interesting Sunday, that's for sure.

We get to the hospital and hours later, Kagome is cast free. I see her come out a little wobbly. "Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I think I forgot how to walk…"

The doctor behind her chuckles before saying, "Don't worry, you didn't forget how to walk. Your right side is a little lame right now. It hasn't been used in so long that it's just getting used to the feeling again. You're going to want to go to rehabilitation classes to gain control over your right side again. You don't have to have classes, but it can always help. If you don't, then you'll learn again in no time anyway. Other than that, you're free to go. We'll call you tonight to find out a good schedule for you to take the classes, if you want them. Have a good day." I put an arm around her waist to help her gain her balance as she tries to walk.

"Do you want me to carry you to the car?"

"No, I need to practice walking anyway. Besides, I can't have you carrying me around school too you know. Better learn now rather than later."

By the time we got to the car she was out of breath. "Alright, here is my condition. I'll teach her how to fight, after you can stand up and walk like normal again."

"Fine, that sounds fair. But, can we still go up the tree?"

"Keh, I said I would didn't I?"

"Yay! Are you going to paint another picture soon?" I've gotten a lot of painting and drawing done lately. I finished that one of Kagome and she loved it. It was a background of the stars in the midnight blue sky and her face was the centerpiece and looked as if she was glowing. Her eyes had tiny stars in the corners of them. She hung it up right on the wall above her bed. I've done things like trees, Sakura and Shippo playing, and many other things that came into my mind at the moment. What Kagome doesn't know, is that I have a book separate than my usual one. Every time we do something I'll devote one page to draw either a scene I want to remember and a bunch of tinier pictures on the page to remember it.

I love how Kagome, Sakura, and I are starting to act like a family. I've never had this before. I see the part of the forest where I entered the last time to take her to the tree, so I park close to the edge of it. Getting out of the truck I see her smile grow to a great big one. I open her door for her and turn around for her to get onto my back.

She does and I shut her door and start to sprint towards our destination.

"Waaaahhh!"

"Inuyasha? Do you hear that?"

"Yeah I do…I think it's a baby."

"Out here in the woods? We have to find that baby; it shouldn't be out in a place like this."

He slows down and sniffs at the air. My face turns into disgust, "Ugh, that's one smelly baby. It's close by too." I wrinkle my nose and stick out my tongue at the smell, making her giggle. She gets off of me and follows the sound of the baby's crying. "Kagome?…Wench…wait up…where do you think you're going?"

"I'm not a wench so don't call me that. And I'm going to find that baby!" She trips over a branch as she turns another direction I run over and grab her waist to hold her up. She turns her head, but not fast enough for me not to see the blush that ran across her face. I groan as I grab her hand to lead her in the direction so she doesn't fall and hurt herself. I blush as well realizing what I just did, but don't let go.

"Oh…Inuyasha…" We found the baby alright. There were two of them actually. Two half-demon babies of maybe one month old ages. "Come on, help me bring them home. We need to get them taken care of!" She holds the twins and I carry her bridle style as I run back to the truck.

There's a new twist in events for you. I didn't get too many reviews last chapter so I still don't know what I should make happen with Naraku and Kikyo. Can't anyone give me a small plot to what they could be doing? Ideas are wanted, having writters block in that area. Please review!
