Disclaimer: wham! Wham! WHAM! *Inuyasha breaks down the closet door and rips the ropes off his arms and ankles.* Ahhh! No! laughs nervously Hey sorry about tieing you up there Inuyasha. hehe... n_n *Inuyasha rushes and grabs B-Chan's shoulders and gets her in a head lock* Inuyasha: Say it you freakin' bitch! B-Chan: Never! *Inuyasha pokes B-Chan in the side roughly* B-Chan: Fine! I don't own Inuyasha here. Happy now, Inu-baby? *Inuyasha has already ran out the window.* B-Chan: fine! Be that way! *curls into a ball crying* All I wanted was...sob a...sniff hug...*breaks down crying harder*

A/N: Okay I'm ready to right, even though I'm a little tried. Heck, I'm REALLY tired! I think I bored Arin and Justin to death on the phone. I had no emotion in my voice and Arin asked me if I was wasted. O_o I'm really disconnected today, but I once again, got my required sleep in Science class. Too bad I got caught sleeping Friday... -_-u But the teacher likes me so she didn't even get mad! I'll tell you, it was another great day in Alabama, I mean it was full of adventure and excitement...NOT! It's encredibly boring and I always seem to get a splitting migrain by the end of the day, and most of the people in my city are all preps who look down apon us and don't even know my name when I've went to school with them since second grade!

Shout-outs:

sorena27: I'm glad you like my story. Yay! A threat! I'm happy that someone cares enough to threaten me.lol. Read on, and enjoy! ^_^

Suya: Yep, just read on to find out. fluff will ensure!

Katzz: The lockte's magic, so it glows when it pushes a memory from the recesses of her mind. That's why she kept zoning out and everything... Let's just say the Shikon shards have something to do with it.

niasdreams: I wish Inuyasha cared for me like he does Kagome. She's so lucky! God. I don't even have a boyfriend to care for me like that. -_-uu

RaspK FOG: I'm glad you like it. It's okay that you haven't been reading it. I've been trying to spice things up, but it sounds a whole lot better in my head.

ForeverNDarkness: I'd clobber them too.

Kagome-Chan: I know. I'm evil. But, I always must leave at a cliffhanger because everyone always tortures me with them, so This Is My REVENGE! Mwhahahahahahahahaha....cough hahahacough, cough hahafalls to ground coughing *memo to myself: stop laughing manically*

Lil Washu: Inuyasha was in my closet. ^_^ And since you review soooo much, I'm gonna give into your request and put in some Hojo bashing. Inuyasha's gonna kick some Hojo butt! ^_~

spidee: Cool. Your welcome. Hey, e-mail me when you write one of them so I can read it okay? Please? Thanx. ^_^

Lemon-Queen-69: Yay! You're back now! -glomp- Mississippi you say? I go through Jackson all the time, or when I'm visiting there. Do you know where McComb is? That's where I was born, but I live here in Alabama now. But I go there all the time and have to pass through Jackson. Do you have MSN messenger? If you do, maybe we could chat...*shrugs* Is the story you're talking about when Kagome is back in her time after giving her soul to Kikyo and she's all normal, without any memories from the past and Kikyo can say 'sit' to Inuyasha? I read one like that, but I don't know if it had that poem. But, I'll talk later since I have to get this posted or my friend will totally kill me! ^.^

Skittles: *Takes deep breaths* I'm okay now.Memoru's laugh freaked me out too! I wrote that in one of the reviews I meant to send you, but the computer decided to disconnect, thus destroying my super long reveiw. sigh Oh well. I reviewed and that's what mattered. The one Fuffy-chan cut was pretty, but the other moths freaked me out. shivers I have a BIG fear of ALL bugs! I can barely catch a lightning bug without freakin' out! But spiders. Ehh! They gross me out the most and it takes me hours to kill one, since I'm so afraid. But hey, I'm getting better at it! But I'd try to kill those evil moths. I also like it when Kagome jumped from Kirara to Inuyasha and he caught her. I'm sooo jealous! I wanna do that! *said in a whiny voice* Hey! Do you have MSN messenger? I would say AOL, but I deleted mine and want to avoid all the people i have on there, so I'm just left with MSN. Do you have it? I thought it would be cool to chat. speaking of which, I gotta go check my e-mail. Til' one of us updates, Ja ne!

Claire Redfield: No, not my Inuyasha plushie again! How will I sleep at night. Okay I'll post now so I can sleep in security with Inuyasha protecting me. *realizes everyone is staring with odd looks* What!?

Now on with the sad stuff! Songfic chapter with Avril Lavigine's 'Anything But Ordinary.' __________________________________ Memories by A Golden Locket:

Ch.11: Her father's death...

____________________________________

Kagome, now nine years old, which I'll just call Kag since that's faster and easier to tell which is which. Well anyway, Kag walked home from school only to find her mother running towards her. 'Mom?' She thought as she started running to meet her halfway. "Sorry I'm late. I lost track of time at the school library and--" She was cut off as her mom started crying. 'She's crying. oh gosh! What happened!?' "Mom what's wrong?" She said with worry.

"Your father...sob... had a...sob...a...sob, sob...heart-attck, and he's...sob in the...sniff...hospital!"

Kag froze. "Wha?" was all she could get out. 'Daddy? Heart-attack? How? What? Why? Why did this have to happen!?' Her mother collasped on the sidewalk crying. Kag grabbed her mother's shoulders. "Mom? You have to take me to him Mom!" Her mom shook ablivious to everything.

************* Sometimes I get so weird I even FREAK myself out

I laugh myself to sleep it's my lulaby

*************

'Mom can't drive like this...And the hospital's not that far away...' She helped her mom up. "C'mon Mom! i can't just leave ya here." She pulled her to the steps of the shrine which happen to be close by and made her sit on them. "Here, mom. You gotta wait for Souta, k? The lady should bring him back from daycare soon." Her mom didn't answer; she just curled up and cried harder. "Mom. I'll be at the hospital, k?" She knew her mom didn't hear her and she didn't care. she wrote a net that read:

Mom,

I'm going to see dad.

I'm taking my bike.

Be back soon,

~Kagome~

She pinned the note to her mother's shirt and started to run to the house. She got her bike, but faith have it, it had a flat tire. "Aahh!" She yelped out in anguish. 'Daddy...What'll I do?!' Her gaze fell on her mother's bike. 'Mom's bike! But it's to big for me to get on.' She saw a step ladder in the corner. 'Perfect! I have to get to Daddy!' She positioned the bike so it pointed towards the shrine steps. She stepped up the ladder and jumped on the bike. She couldn't sit on the seat and reach the pedals, so she sat on that bar that connects the seat and front tire and reached the pedals with her tip toes as she peddaled as fast as she could towards the steps her mom was on.

She flies down the steps as she bounces and almost flips over. "For Daddy..." she whispered into the wind.

***************

Sometimes I drive so fast just to feel the danger

I want to scream it makes me feel alive

****************

She went faster than ever and made it to the hospital in maybe three or four minutes flat. 'How will I get down from here?' She spotted the bike rack and pedaled towards it, full speed. Then she slammed on the hand-break and moved her legs so she was squated on the bike seat.

Upon the impact with the bike rack, she was sent flying over the handlebars and flipped in mid-air onto the grass. The side of her body hit first, knocking the air from her and extracting a yelp. Then, she bounced and hit the side of her head and wrist. Finally, she rolled on the ground, her hair collecting grass and leaves and her arms and legs twisting awkwardly. She laid there for a few seconds before jumping to her feet. She looked down at herself. Her navy blue dress was smearing green with grass and mud stains on it. Her ponytail was limp and her hair had sticks and leaves in it. Her ankle was red and starting to swell and her legs had red spots and cuts as did her arms. She pulled on her dress so it came past her knees to cover her legs and unrolled her sleeves. Her palms were sut since she landed on them instead of her face. She ran to the main doors while pulling at her hair to get the leaves out. By the time she made it inside, her hair looked a little more decent.

******************

Is it enough to love is it enough to breathe somebody

rip my heart out and leave me here to bleed is it

enough to die somebody save my life I'd rather be

anything but ordinary please

********************

She tried to see over the information desk, but to no avail. She gritted her teeth in pain at jumping on her swollen ankle. "Hey!" She shouted up. The clerk looked down.

"Are you lost, little girl?" She asked. The clerk had red hair pulled into a loose braid and rested on her shoulder limply. She wore a uniform of white with a nametag that read: Syoto, Yuri. This clerk, Yuri, had blue- grey eyes, like a calm after a storm, wityh purple eyes shadow.

"I'm looking for my Daddy."

"What's your daddy's name?" asked Yuri as she prepared to paige whoever Kag said.

"Higurashi, Souga. He had a heart-attack and I just gotta see him." Yuri put down the microphone.

"He's a paitent?"

"Hai."

"Where's your mommy?"

"At the shrine. I came here on her bike." Yuri just now got a good look at Kag. She had messed up hair, a dirty dress, swollen ankle, and was bleeding through cuts on her arms and legs, soaking the sleeve of her shirt.

"Did you fall?"

"I guess you could say that..."

"You're injured!"

"I don't care! Tell me where daddy is! Please! I have to see him..." A tear slipped down her cheek at the fact that her dad could die. She sniffed and whipped her face with the back of her hand that wasn't that bloddy. 'I have to talk to him. I have to see my daddy!' Yuri's voice ceased her thoughts. Yuri's voice echoed throughout the halls as she talked over the intercom/microphone.

"Security! Security to the front desk! We have an injured girl resisting medical treatment! She's here alone! Security to the front desk immedatly!" She put the mic down. "Now you can have some medical treatment." She smiled.

***************

To walk within the lines would make my life so

boring! I want to know that I have been to

the extreme. So knock me off my feet come on

now give it to me anything to make me feel alive

****************

"No!" yelled Kag as she grabbed the sign-in notebook that has the name and room of all paitents that checked in or out that day. 'Higurashi... Higurashi, Souga. Found it! He's in intensive care on the fourth floor. Yuri's voice rang on the speakers again.

"Child is escaping with sign-in notebook through main hall A! Get her!" Kag quickly checked the section that her dad would be in. 'Part C.' She mentally chanted upon finding it. She tossed the book to the floor without a second thought, but never stopped running.

'Elevator! Wait, didn't I see a movie when they stopped an elevator to catch someone?! Stairs it is then!' She started running faster towards the stairs, ignoring the seering pain in her ankle. She was loosing blood through the many cuts and gashes that screamed for her attention. 'Ow, Ow, OW!!' She mentally cried out as she winced, but didn't stop or slow the tinyest bit.

"Hold off the elevators!" Yuri screeched over the speakers.

'They thought I was dumb enough to take the elevators, Ha!' She reached the top after tripping a bit. She started to run when she was grabbed by the shoulders.

********************

Is it enough to love is it enough to breathe somebody

rip my heart out and leave me here to bleed is it

enough to die

********************

With a cry of pain, she twisted to see a tall man dressed in a white uniform with a security hat and badge. 'Oh, no! I've been caught! No! I won't give up that easily! I've come too far now!' She twisted as tears feel steadily down her cheeks in anger. She twisted again and kicked him in a very unpleasant spot on the male body. He yelped and let her go as he grabbed the violated spot and whimpered in pain. She ran between another security guard's legs and continued.

She looked at the overhanging signs to see which section she was in. She felt a little more blood run down her legs and whimpered to herself. 'If my bike didn't have a flat, I wouldn't be in this mess.' she bitterly thought.

She didn't want medical treatment, she just wanted to see her dad. 'Part C! I found it!' She smiled and sprinted down the C hall for all she was worth. She came to the end where two big doors were. A sign hung overhead that read: INTENSIVE CARE---NO CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF TEN ALLOWED INSIDE.

'I'm underaged....I don't care! A sign can't stop me!' she opened the door slowly, glad she had lost the security guards somewhere down hall B. She had ducked into an empty room and hidden in a closet.

**********************

somebody save my life I'd rather be

anything but ordinary please

***********************

She ran along, looking in the rooms which had no doors, only a wall to seperate them. A circular desk was in the middle and doctors and nurses filled the area. She saw Gramps by a bed and ran towards him. "Ji-chan." She whispered as she saw his head hung low with tears cascading down his writhered cheeks. She saw her father in the bed. "Daddy!" she cried out as she ran over to him, surpising the doctors around him, him, and Gramps at her state.

"Kag! What happened to you?!" he whispered gruffly. His heart was weakening to where he was slowly slipping away and breathing and talking were painful.

"It's nothing. Daddy! Will you be okay?"

"Forget me. What happened?"

"Just a biking accident and being chased down by security guards."

"Where was your mother during this. And where is she now?"

"I came alone, on her bike."

"What!?" Gramps and her dad cried out at the same time.

"She was crying too hard to drive me."

***********************

Let down your defenses use no common sense

if you look you will see that this world is a

beautiful, accident, turbulent succulent opulent

permanent no way. I wanna taste it don't wanna

waste it away.

***********************

"Kag. Listen to me... I don't have much time left kid...but-"

"No!" She interrupted. "You can't leave! you're gonna be okay, Daddy! You have to..."

"Kag...You can't fight fate." She shook her head as tears started to flow. "Don't be sad Kag. It was my fault for not listening to doctors about smoking... I smoked with high blood pressure....Listen, when the time is right, you'll get the locket I showed you. I want you to wear it and keep it forever...You can put your love's picture in there and wear it close to your heart... But I cough don't think...I'm going...to..wheeze be...around much longer.. But I put something in the locket. I once told you...where..I. I put it.t, but Kag.. Just know that I gasp l..love..y..you..w.ith all m.my heart..And I wheeze, cough want..you to always remeber..that... Ok..k.ay..?" He grabbed her hand as she couldn't stop the tears.

"I..I love you too, Daddy..." She sobbed hard and gasped as the tears came harder. "Please don't go." she whispered.

"I wouldn't if I had a chance, Kagome." he said not using her pet name. He held her hand tighter and sqeezed it like it was his lifeline. "I..I'll...always be in...your..heart..in cough sprit. Goodbye..." And with that said he kissed her forehead, pulled back and his hand went slack, he closed his eyes and that annoying beeping of the heart moniter went buzz with a straight line.

"Daddy!!! NO!!" And darkness consumed all.

******************

Inuyasha sat on the futon, watching Kagome sleep and waiting for the night to end so he could once again become hanyou. He could see her with the moonlight guiding him, but not as well as if he were hanyou. He saw how much she looked like Kikyo, but was so different. 'She's not a copy, she's her own person.' He didn't see that much difference at first glance, but her personaility was different and her eyes were so full of like. She wore her heart on her sleeve and didn't have a barrier around it like Kikyo. Of coaurse Kikyo had a reason not to show her weaknesses, but she still never had once cried.

Kagome stirred in her sleep. 'A nightmare?' he thought.

"No...Daddy.." Kagome mumbled in her sleep.

'Daddy?' Inuyasha thought as he swept a few stray hairs of hers behind her ear, careful not to wake her.

"Please don't leave.." She whispered.

"Huh?" Inuyasha whipsered back. Tears now fell from her face freely. "Kagome.." He swiped some tears away as she whimpered.

"No!" She gasped out as she jumped straight up, almost knocking Inuyasha down. She held herself and cried. Inuyasha didn't know what to do, or what came over him, but he imagined it must be his human side. He sat behind her on the bed, rested his back on the headboard and pulled her onto his lap and held her as she cried. She used his shoulder and cried for a long time, almost falling to sleep, but first noticing a tiny ray of sunlight break through. The moonless night ended and Inuyasha felt his demonic blood returning. Claws, Fangs, keen eyesight, silver hair, it all came back. I smiled a fanged smile at her as gold eyes met brown. She smiled sadly as he continued to hold her there, rubbing her back and rocking slowly. "It's alright Kagome...Everything's alright."

"Arigotou, Inuyasha."
