Meanwhile back at the mansion

Rin had fallen asleep watching over Amaya, Inutashio checked in on the girls,

"Kagome has such a kind heart still, Amaya, you are a strong Inu, you mother will come out of it soon child, I swear to you," Inutashio standing by the door, he had his healers assess the little hanyou's body and to give her a shot of medicine that would give her strength back to her more quickly. He woke Rin up and took her to feed her, after Rin was bathed by a maid, she dressed her in a silk night gown that the silk worm demons had made for her, when Sesshomaru's father took her back to the room Amaya was starting to wake. Inutashio and Rin sat quietly on the bed till she woke up. Amaya jerked away from them,

"Who are you people?" Amaya bringing the covers up over her face,

"There is no need to fret sweetheart, you are safe here, my name is Inutashio, I'm a…" Inutashio being interrupted,

"Forgive me for interrupting you but I think I remember you now, you are Inuyasha's daddy," Amaya lowering the covers slowly.

"Yes, this is Rin, my elder son's daughter, he is the one that found you and brought you to our home," Inutashio explained in a kind voice. Amaya glanced at Rin,

"You are pretty Amaya, I like your ears," Rin staring at the them,

"Thanks, um, Mr. Inutashio, this is my grandparent's place and where is my mommy?" Amaya softly as if she were going to start crying.

"Amaya, your grandparents died in a car wreck, your mommy is in the hospital, Sesshomaru my eldest son is visiting her as we speak," Inutashio pushing her hair back, she jerked away.

"I want my mommy," Amaya shaking,

"Sweetheart, your mommy is in a deep sleep right now, she can't seem to wake up, until then we are going to look after you for her, now, are you hungry, I can have some food sent up to you," Inutashio caring for the little hanyou, Inuyasha came into the room.

"Dad, mom wants to know…oh, um…" Inuyasha blinking at the little hanyou,

"Inuyasha, this is Amaya, Amaya is Kagome's daughter," Inutashio introducing them to one another.

"I know who he is, he is the one that hurt my mommy, you stay away from my mommy, she doesn't like you anymore," Amaya growled and snapped at him.

"Amaya, what is it that you eat?" Inutashio trying to break up the verbal fight Amaya was trying to start.

"Ninja food," Amaya's eyes still staring Inuyasha down,

"What's Ninja food?" Inutashio confused,

"It's ramen," Inuyasha smirked, Amaya snorted at Inuyasha,

"Inuyasha, is there something you wanted?" Inutashio trying to make him leave the room so he couldn't fuel Amaya's outburst any longer by just standing there.

"Mom wanted to talk with you and Sesshomaru is getting a ride back in the morning from Sango," Inuyasha glancing at Amaya.

"Alright, Amaya do you like it fixed a certain way?" Inutashio asked,

"No, just throw it in the pot and boil it and put the packet of spices in it when its done, I like the chicken flavored kind, if you have any," Amaya explained.

"You sit tight, Inuyasha watch the kids for a few minutes," his father ordered. Inuyasha came in as his father left, he was never good with brats of any kind, especially one as hot headed as Kagome could be at times.

"Can I touch your ears Amaya?" Rin asked, Amaya stared at the little girl,

"Sure, just don't pull on them," Amaya knowing the little human girl wasn't a threat. Rin felt of Amaya's ears, Amaya made little doggy whines as Rin rubbed her ears. Rin giggled,

"They are fuzzy, I want some fuzzy ears like you and Inuyasha," Rin pouted, Amaya giggled,

"Humans can't grow doggy ears like this unless they are half demons, Rin, I am half demon and half human," Amaya explained to Rin,

"We are going to be just like sisters," Rin giggles, Amaya looked over at Inuyasha, he hung his head,

"Amaya, I am really sorry I hurt your mother, her cousin subdued me, not the other way around," Inuyasha trying to explain to the little hanyou.

"Inuyasha you could never make up for what you did to my mom, you crushed her, you were the one who asked her to stay by your side for the rest of her human existence, and then she caught you messing around with Kikyo, the night before you were supposed to marry my mom, you broke my mom at a chance to ever be happy again, I hope you are happy and proud of yourself," Amaya growled out, Inuyasha stared at her eyes, she had a light bright blue tint to her eye color.

"I loved your mother, she was the only one who accepted me for who and what I am, I am not proud of myself, I want Kagome to be able to have a family, for you and your mom to be happy," Inuyasha shouted. Inutashio heard them fighting about what Inuyasha had done to Kagome in the past,

"Amaya, let me tell you something, no kids will accept you for who you truly are, me and you, we are in betweens, why do you think you were in the orphanage? You have a human parent and a full blooded demon parent who didn't accept who you were, no one cares, for us but Kagome, Kagome doesn't judge anyone, she loves you for who you are and she used to love me for who I was but I screwed up, and that's why we conceal ourselves, if the wrong people find out that there are demons in this world they will turn us into lab rats, they will run tests on us and kami knows what else," Inuyasha explained to her.

"I'm not stupid Inubaka, my mother taught me well," Amaya huffed,

"You were buried because they thought you were dead, the doctors probably know because your concealment dropped from your body when you were hurt in that wreck, how you got by without an autopsy is beyond me," Inuyasha shrugged.

"He is right Amaya, you are still alive, you will have to be extremely careful in town," Inutashio explained as he brought her a tray of two bowls of ramen,

"I need my mom," Amaya sadly.

"I know sweetie, but right now she is sleeping and no one can wake her up, she was protecting you in that wreck, she'll come back, she's a strong young lady," Inutashio trying to comfort her.

"You don't understand, mommy is the protector of the jewel, there will be trouble if she does not make a selfless wish upon the jewel and wish it away," Amaya shouted,

"Oh kami, that's why there has been so many attacks on Sesshomaru lately, I bet he protects the jewel, here Amaya, eat up, I'm going to have some of my best men go and guard your mother's room, excuse me," Inutashio leaving the room.

"What kind of jewel are you talking about?" Inuyasha confused,

"The Jewel of Four Souls, the ultimate power, it can be dangerous if in the wrong hands," Amaya explained.

"No way, that's probably the only reason your mom is still alive, I knew she was a miko but if a normal miko had been in a car wreck like that she would have been dead," Inuyasha mumbled. Amaya was crying, Inuyasha stared at Amaya,

"Amaya, please don't cry," Inuyasha seriously,

"I want my mom," Amaya sobbed, Rin gave Inuyasha a dirty look, he came over and hugged Amaya.

"Kagome will wake up Amaya, she doesn't give up so easily, don't you remember a time when she kept fighting, fighting is what she does, she still has a lot of good to do in this world, I promise you, just eat your ninja food, rest up while she is in the hospital and before long you'll be with her again," Inuyasha not really knowing how to comfort a child but trying to.

"I guess mommy would scold me if I got sick on her," Amaya moving away from Inuyasha's embrace, she took the fork and started shoveling the ramen in her mouth,

"Damn kid, slow down," Inuyasha stunned, his cell went off, he stepped into the hall and shut the door.

"Sesshomaru if you want me to come and get ya…" Inuyasha being interrupted,

"Stupid shut up for a minute, father's guards are down here at Kagome's room as we speak, but tell him he needs extra security on the pups, Dr. Visconti is acting strange, he knows Amaya is alive, he wants to evaluate her, keep the pups in your sight," Sesshomaru being discrete.

"Fuck Sesshomaru, you told him didn't ya, stupid!" Inuyasha shouted,

"Just get more guards and tell father, Do. Not. Let. Those. Pups. Out. Of. Your. Sight!" Sesshomaru growled, Inuyasha opened the door to the room the kids were in, he smelt something strange,

"Huh, Sesshomaru, gotta go!" Inuyasha hanging up on an irritate Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru was pissed, he smashed the hospital phone into the wall,

"Damn half breeds," Sesshomaru mumbled.

"Sesshomaru what the hell is going on?" Kagome shouted, he didn't even look her way,

"Sesshomaru!" Kagome shouted again, nothing, it was like a wall between them he couldn't hear her or see her spirit for that matter, she knew something was definitely wrong, she left the hospital, she floated to Sango's place.


At Sango's Place

"Sango, eww, gross!" Kagome turning around, Sango and Miroku were in the middle of making love.

"Kami Kags!" Sango pulling the sheet up to cover her chest,

"Sorry, didn't think you would take me so literally, I need your help," Kagome freaking out,

"Okay, calm down, what's wrong?" Sango throwing her underwear on.

"Um, I think Amaya is alive at Sesshomaru's parent's place, but I think there is something wrong, I think there may be people or demons after her right now, please come with me to check it out," Kagome's voice breaking up. Miroku and Sango threw on their fighting gear,

"We'll both come, the baby is with the sitter, come on Sango, you take the car I'll grab my bike," Miroku ordered.

"How about we just take the bike?" Sango grabbing the keys and a helmet from the kitchen bar,

"I'll take Kirara then," Kagome explained, as on cue the twin tail came running.

"Not in the house," Sango scolded as they all ran out to the garage, Kagome and Kirara both ran out the front door and Kirara transformed. Kagome floated onto her back,

"Lets ride Kirara," Kagome shouted, Miroku and Sango flew out of the garage following the road to Sesshomaru's place.
